Chapter 1003 For These (Part [-])
People come and go on the street, but most of them are people working in the field industry, and there are not many peddlers on the roadside.

Su Yumei searched for a while, and finally found a vendor selling candied haws.

There were at least twenty candied gourd sticks on a whole stick. Shi Guoxin bought the sticks with the money Xia Zhaoyi gave him, and followed Su Yumei with them on his shoulders.

There were more and more people on the street. When they were approaching Zifengfang, there was a loud shout in front of them, followed by a woman who shouted: "There are dead people! Two people died!"

Su Yumei didn't like this kind of excitement, but pedestrians from all directions gathered there.

"It's so miserable."

"It's two!"

"Next to this is the government office, the murderer is really arrogant."

"I recognize them, isn't this the guy from Sihai Teahouse?"

"Yes, this is the guy from Sihai Teahouse!"

……

Shi Guoxin paused, looked back immediately, and said to Su Yumei in a deep voice, "Miss Su, this is the Four Seas Teahouse."

Su Yumei was stunned: "Miss Ali, come to the Four Seas Teahouse in Xucheng?"

"Ah."

"Then go and have a look!"

"Here... I can't go," Shi Guoxin nodded, "Second Miss wants me to protect you, and I must stay by Miss Su's side every step of the way."

Su Yumei looked forward, she would definitely not be able to squeeze through this moment.

"Then let's go back to the residence first." Su Yumei said.

But not only the front, there are also many people behind who want to watch the fun.

Shi Guoxin led the way, and Su Yumei followed behind.

Shi Guoxin was tall and big, and the candied haws in his hand were conspicuous. Suddenly, a little girl grabbed him and asked how much a piece of candied haws was.

"Not for sale." Shi Guoxin said.

Seeing the cuteness of the little girl, Su Yumei stood on tiptoe to pull one off, but Shi Guoxin hid the stick of candied haws behind.

"Miss Su, Second Miss did not agree." Shi Guoxin looked at her.

Su Yumei paused, then laughed: "It's okay, Miss Ali won't disagree."

"I only listened to the second lady's orders. The second lady only wanted me to buy candied haws back home, but she didn't tell anyone else."

Su Yumei had no choice but to look at the little girl.Embarrassed smile.

Another candied haws was handed over at this time.

The little girl was overjoyed, she raised her head to look at the person who came, and her eyebrows brightened immediately: "Big brother, take a good look."

Ji Xiahe raised his hand and patted her on the shoulder lightly: "Go farther away before eating, there are many people here, and when the show ends, you have such small arms and legs, you are easy to be stepped on."

"Enen, thank you big brother, thank you big brother!"

Ji Xiahe withdrew his gaze, looked at Su Yumei and Shi Guoxin, and bent his lips into a smile: "Miss Su, do you still recognize me?"

Su Yumei looked at his handsome Zhou Zheng's facial features, and remembered: "You are that 'Zhi Ye'."

"I've met Lord Zhi." Shi Guoxin said respectfully.

Dai Yu was the only one beside Ji Xiahe. Seeing the candied haws that Shi Guoxin was holding, Dai Yu was curious: "Why are you carrying this candied haws?"

"Second Miss asked me to buy it."

"It's Ah Li," Dai Yu laughed, "Ah Li is so cute."

Su Yumei pursed her lips and smiled beside her.

"But it's too eye-catching, we saw you at a glance." Dai Yu said.

"There's a murder case ahead, which is related to the Four Seas Teahouse. I'm planning to go home and tell you where you two are going?" Su Yumei said.

"Sihai Teahouse?" Dai Yu was startled, and hurriedly looked forward, "Here, I'll go and have a look!"

Before Jixing Mountain came back, he was taken away by Zhili, and slept all night, and he knew the people inside already.

"I'm going too!" Ji Xiahe said, before walking a few steps, he turned to look at Su Yumei, "Miss Su just asked me where I was going, we were going to find Miss Ali, I am leaving now, I plan Say goodbye to Miss Ali."

"...Hmm." Su Yumei didn't know what to say.

Ji Xiahe continued to follow Dai Yu.

Su Yumei and Shi Guoxin left the crowd and came out. After a few steps, people from the government came to meet them.

The crowd was blocked, and the government officials became furious and began to push and hustle.

A little boy was pushed to the ground, crying loudly, and a foot from behind stepped on his back. Seeing this, Su Yumei hurried over to help him.

As people passed, Su Yumei was also knocked down, and several small things fell out of her arms.

After she picked up the little boy, she hurried to pick it up, but someone stepped on her fingers and passed by.

Su Yumei reluctantly picked up the things, before she had time to wipe off the dust, she checked the little boy for any injuries.

A person's footsteps stopped suddenly, and he looked towards her.

Immediately afterwards, a dagger was quietly unsheathed.

Su Yumei checked the little boy, confirmed that he was not injured, and was going to pick him up and take him away from the crowd.

The unsheathed dagger suddenly stabbed at her at this moment.

"Thief!" Shi Guoxin, who was being squeezed by the crowd, shouted angrily, and he stretched out the stick of candied haws before he arrived in time.

The dagger was firmly inserted into the candied haws column.

Running quickly, several passers-by were tripped.

The assassin was shocked, he pulled it out quickly, he didn't care about stabbing Su Yumei again, and stabbed at others.

"Looking for death!" Shi Guoxin scolded again, and quickly chased after him.

Unlucky pedestrians passing by were stabbed several times in a row.

The gangster ran all the way, waving knives all the way.

Screams erupted from the crowd.

Shi Guoxin didn't chase very far, and stopped when he was about ten steps away from Su Yumei.

Su Yumei looked at the direction the gangster left with a pale face.

The pained cries of the wounded filled the ears.

As the criminals ran away, several more people were injured, and the worst one was stabbed in the face.

Finally, relying on the chaotic crowd and the knife in his hand, the gangster quickly disappeared into a civilian alley.

·
The government couldn't accommodate people, so the corpses of the two tragic deaths were covered casually with white cloth and carried back to the Sihai Teahouse.

Ji Xiahe and Dai Yu followed back, and the people in the yamen were asking shopkeeper Li for a "moving fee".

Shopkeeper Li couldn't slow down from hearing the news to seeing the corpse, and he paid a full five taels of silver in a daze before sending him away.

The people on the inner three floors and the outer three floors filled the entire front yard of Sihai Teahouse with water.

"Eggs were thrown in the morning, and now he's dead."

"To die on the street, what a tragedy!"

"Too bad, those two fellows are fine."

"In these days, anything can happen."

"By the way, which two are the ones who died?"

……

Dai Yuting's fists were hard, and he wanted to go out and beat someone, but in order not to cause trouble for Sihai Teahouse, he could only endure it.

Shopkeeper Li tremblingly sat next to the corpse, his hands and feet were weak.

"No." Shopkeeper Li suddenly thought of a serious question, "If they were killed, wouldn't that dirty man run away?"

Almost at the same time, Zhili also got up from the stone bench: "They were actually killed? That dirty man was trampled by Brother Shen and broke his wrist, how can he kill the two of them back?!"

"Maybe a companion." Shen Lie said.

"Blame me, it's all my fault!" Zhili's eyes turned red, "I shouldn't be so big-hearted, I should have delivered it to them myself! Sister, I'll go to the teahouse right now!"

After speaking, Zhili turned around and ran outside.

Xia Zhaoyi watched him run away, then looked back at Su Yumei: "That gangster, killed you for no reason?"

Su Yumei was silent and paused, she took out a few things and put them on the stone table.

"Maybe, it's because of these." Su Yumei said.
