Chapter 123 Tea stall in distress
The sun was shining brightly and the sky was clear.

The willows by the river hang their heads listlessly, and the soft willow branches sway gently with the breeze.

"Uncle Niu, let's go to the tea shed in front to rest for a while before we go on our way." Xia Lu opened the bamboo curtain and said to the driver outside.

"Excellent!" The coachman raised his hand and wiped the sweat from his face.

After finding a suitable location, he pulled the reins and pulled the carriage aside.

The three of Luo Mingchuan got out of the carriage, found a table under the shade of a tree, and sat down.

Uncle Niu didn't even get out of the car, just sitting on the shaft of the car, holding a tea bowl and drinking heavily.

Gradually, more and more people came to the tea stand.

Some have no place to sit, so they share tables with others.

A woman selling jelly with a load came to Luo Mingchuan's table, and asked with a smile, "Girl, can I sit here?"

Luo Mingchuan nodded, "Sit down!"

The woman smiled and said, "Thank you!"

The woman gulped down a bowl of tea, raised her hand and wiped the corner of her mouth with her sleeve, and asked with a smile, "The three girls are going out for fun?!"

Xia Lu replied with a smile, "Go to relatives."

There was alienation in the gentle and polite tone.

I don't know if the woman didn't hear it, or she was born familiar.

She continued: "Going to relatives, where are you going? Is it far away?"

Xia Lu: "Go to Linzhou Prefecture."

"Linzhou Prefecture is a good place!" the woman said, "I went to Linzhou Prefecture for business, I don't know which county you go to in Linzhou Prefecture?"

Xia Lu frowned unobtrusively, and said casually, "It's the state capital of Linzhou, not the county seat."

The woman said enviously: "Oh, the girl is so lucky!

The relatives in your mansion are not small! "

The people who can live in the state capital are not ordinary people.

Chuncao sneered, "It's just that you live in the state capital, not the government office. What kind of good luck is there or bad luck?"

After finishing speaking, he still curled his lips, disliking the woman for making a fuss.

Uh!
A trace of embarrassment flashed across the woman's face, but then she smiled again, "The girl said yes. Hehe...

By the way, the weather is so hot, do the three girls want to buy a bowl of jelly? ! "

Chuncao glanced at the burden at her feet in distaste, and said grumpily, "Don't buy it!"

"Oh, what kind of eyes do you have?!" The woman muttered dissatisfiedly, "My thing is very clean.

I wash this drape every day.And this bowl..."

As she spoke, she took out one and handed it to Chuncao, "Look, look, how clean is this bowl?! Uh..."

Maintaining the posture of reaching out, the whole person froze.

She lowered her head slowly, looked at the dagger on her waist, twitched the corners of her mouth, and smiled mischievously, "Girl, what are you doing?
It's just a bowl, if you want it, just give it to you.Why? "

"Don't talk nonsense!" Xia Lu scolded in a cold tone, "When it comes to using poison, your morality is still a little shallow."

The woman's eyes flickered, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Girl, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"

Xia Lu advanced the knife a little further, and asked in a deep voice, "Say, who sent you here?!"

hiss·········

The tip of the knife had penetrated the clothing and pierced the flesh.

The woman gasped in pain.

Little bastard, you are really ruthless!

He secretly scolded Xia Lu eight hundred times in his heart.

His face was extremely miserable.

She grinned and begged bitterly: "Girl, I'm just a jelly seller, and I don't have much money on me. Please let me go!"

She suddenly raised her voice, startling everyone.

The drowsy person who was lying on the table just now woke up with a jerk.

what happened?
Everyone's eyes fell on the faces of Luo Mingchuan's master and servant.

From the looks of it, it doesn't look like a master who is short of money, why would he attack a person who sells jelly?
Hey, you don't understand this!

No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat!

However, those three girls are so pretty, so they don't look like robbers? !
This is what you said, and the robbers have no words on their faces.

Everyone stared at the situation in front of them, countless question marks flashed through their minds.

The whole picture just freezes there.

Even the breeze forgot to blow.

"Run..."

After a dozen or so breaths, someone suddenly yelled.

Everyone grabbed the bundles at hand, pulled the children around them, cried and yelled, and ran away.

Even the owner of the stall didn't know where to hide.

This scene...

The woman gritted her teeth and cursed secretly: What a bunch of useless things!

Chuncao resisted to laugh out loud, these people are really interesting.

Luo Mingchuan played with the teacup in his hand, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Now it's clean, so you can talk about it if you have anything to say."

The woman twitched her mouth, feeling very wronged, "I don't understand what the girl is talking about.

I'm just not convinced that this girl wronged me.How did it attract you to use the knife? "

I really can't see the coffin without crying!
"Hehe!" Luo Mingchuan couldn't help laughing, "I really should find you a mirror so that you can see what you look like now."

What do you mean?
The woman looked at Luo Mingchuan puzzled.

Luo Mingchuan laughed, "You have seen a jelly seller, is it still so calm at this time?"

"Hehe!" The woman also laughed, and she put down her hand holding the bowl, "How did you find out? Actually, this bowl..."

Immediately after that, I couldn't speak.

He stared at Luo Mingchuan stupidly, "What's going on?"

Xia Lu was right, she hid poison in the bowl.

As long as Chuncao came over to look at it, and she gently twisted the edge of the bowl with her fingers, this person would definitely die.

It's a pity that the good plan was seen through by the dead girl next to her.

However, it doesn't matter, it's not too late to make up for it.

I lost the opportunity just now, and it's the same now.

But········
She found that her fingers could not move.

Without her noticing, she was actually tricked? !

Those wide eyes were filled with horror.

Luo Mingchuan said lightly: "Didn't I tell you just now, playing poison in front of us, you're still a little tender."

"what!"

After the voice fell, the woman's arm went numb, and she was extremely uncomfortable, "What did you do to me?"

Luo Mingchuan was too lazy to talk nonsense to her, "Tell me, who ordered you to come here? What is your purpose in looking for me?"

The woman gasped and said, "I don't know what you're talking about."

It's already this time, are you still stubborn? !
Luo Mingchuan snorted coldly, "Make it clear, I'll give you a happy ending."

　I wish everyone a happy Labor Day!
