Gu Qi, she just wants to farm

Chapter 175 Tear up the ticket?

"Be honest, take out all the money, or I will tie you up."

Gu Qi got up and walked to the counter, supporting the counter with one hand, but took out the account book that Xingniang put on the counter to pretend to be with the other hand.

Gu Qi casually flipped through a few pages and frowned: "The account book from half a year ago?
This business is bad enough, no wonder you have to switch to another business, but it's a pity that you are not professional enough to rob this business. "

"What do you want to do?" Xingniang, who was hiding behind the counter, was trembling at this moment.

"What do you want to do. I just want to do what I want to do. It happens that I'm short of money recently, so hurry up and hand over the money." Gu Qi smiled and returned the words of the skinny guy to Xingniang and the others.

"We have no money."

What Xingniang said was half-truth and half-truth, they still have a few hundred taels of money.However, she left them in the rented house in the county city and did not bring them back to the inn. At this time, they only had seven or eight taels of silver on them.

"No money?"

Gu Qi frowned, a little unhappy, then turned to Zhou Li and asked, "There is no money for robbery, how should we deal with it according to the usual practice?"

Zhou Li chuckled and cooperated: "Tear up the ticket."

Gu Qi raised the corners of his lips: "It makes sense. Although it's troublesome, who told you that you have no money."

After finishing speaking, Gu Qisheng leaped over the counter and grabbed Xingniang's neck with one hand.

Slightly twitching his index finger, seeing Xingniang's eyes widen and her complexion getting redder and redder, Gu Qi smiled: "Madam shopkeeper, I don't know how long I can last with such a slender neck."

"Let go of Xingniang!"

Seeing this, the little guy didn't care about the pain in his hand, and rushed towards Gu Qi crazily while clutching his bleeding hand.

Hearing this, Gu Qi tightened his grip on Xingniang's neck, turned his head to look at the guy and said, "Don't worry, you don't have enough money, none of you can run away. I will send you on your way after I finish this beautiful girl." .”

"I don't have money, we have it! Let go of Xingniang first."

Xingniang's thin wail made the little boy's eyes redden uncontrollably, and his voice trembled.

He didn't dare to go up to provoke Gu Qi, he just kept begging: "You let Xingniang go first, we have money. We really have money, as long as you let Xingniang go."

"It's quite sincere. To be honest, I've played it not long ago. It's no reason to make Yimei Jiao Niang suffer so much."

Gu Qiqing relaxed her fingers, and Xingniang knelt down on the ground without support, breathing heavily, her whole face was pale and purple, as if she had walked back from the edge of death.

"Silver is not in the inn."

Afraid of offending Gu Qi, the little man continued to plead: "I'm telling the truth, I'll go to the county to get the money now, as long as you release Xingniang."

Gu Qi looked at him and asked with a smile: "It's nice to say, but what if you don't plan to care about them at all and run away by yourself?"

"No, no. How could I have left Apricot? Don't worry, I will definitely get the money back." The little boy swore.

*
From what the little guy said, Gu Qi knew that the county they were talking about did not refer to Sishui County, but Yanmen County, which was only two hours away from here and back and forth.

From behind the counter, Gu Qi searched out the ropes that Xingniang and the others had prepared in advance just in case, and tied Xingniang and his two brothers who acted as buddies neatly.

After letting the little guy out of the inn, Gu Qi tortured the three of them in turn, only then did he realize that the guy was called A Ling.Although he is a few years older than Xingniang, he is Xingniang's son in name.

"A pretty middle-aged widow who lost her husband, and a young step-son who is about the same age and lives together.

Tsk tsk tsk, this is enough to write a colorful storybook. " Gu Qi poured tea for Zhou Li, seeing that Zhou Li didn't move, he smiled and said: "Don't worry, there is no sweat medicine in this tea. "

Zhou Li took the tea: "Aren't you afraid that the guy named Ah Ling really won't come back?"

"If you don't come back, don't come back."

Gu Qi said with a smile: "Although I lost a lot of money, but I also saw a big show, and we are not losing money."

Speaking of which, Gu Qi looked at Xingniang again: "The shopkeeper's lady looks good, although she is a bit older, but"

Gu Qi didn't continue to say the following words, but it was enough to scare Xing Niang, who was already like a frightened bird, to the point where her face turned pale.

"Then you are not afraid that Ah Ling will report to the officials and beat you up?" Zhou Li asked again.

Gu Qi smiled: "That's all he has to have the courage to do. Although this group of people are a little more savvy, it's not the first time they have done this. Thinking about it, before us, this group of people have already succeeded Several times, they are more afraid of meeting officials than us."

"Don't you think so? Shopkeeper's lady." Gu Qi turned to ask Xingniang.

Xingniang looked down at Gu Qi, and she didn't dare to move.

She was afraid, of course she was afraid of seeing an official.But she was even more afraid of what would happen to her and her two younger brothers if Ah Ling really ran away and didn't come back.

*
Xingniang's family has been poor since she was a child. She has three older sisters and two younger brothers.I often have a hungry stomach without a meal.

When Xingniang was eight or nine years old, the first three older sisters were all married off by their parents.The youngest third sister was less than 12 years old when she got married.

The third brother-in-law is a widower in his forties whose wife died.There are also two sons who are seventeen or eighteen years old under their name.The third sister is not so much married, but in fact, it is no different from selling for money.

After the three sisters got married, their parents received a lot of dowry, and life at home suddenly became much easier.

Xingniang still remembers that there were more white flour steamed buns on the dining table at home that year, and sometimes meat was seen. Although those meat dishes were for her father and two younger brothers, she and her mother could not eat them, but that day She has never been hungry for years.

It was the nine-year-old Xingniang who naively thought that the good life would continue like this.But I didn't expect that only one year later, my father was dragged to the gambling house in the town by the bastards from the same village, and when he came back, the family's money was gone.

A month later, Xingniang was put on a red wedding dress by Xipo, and mother-in-law told her to live in her in-law's house while holding her and crying.

Xingniang knew that she was sold like her three sisters.

Even like the third sister, she was sold to a widower.It's just that the third sister was 12 years old when she got married, and she was only ten years old when she got married.

When picking up the bride, Xingniang saw her husband, a middle-aged man in his early thirties, fair-looking, with a kind face.

After getting married, Xingniang found out that her husband's family ran an inn, the inn was located in a remote place, the business was not bad, and she had some savings.

The mother-in-law in front of her husband died due to dystocia and hemorrhage during childbirth, but the child survived. It was a boy named Ah Ling.It is 13 years old now.At that time, Ah Ling was a full head taller than Xingniang.
