Chapter 137 Help
There is hot air in the large bathtub, and bright red rose petals float on the water.

Xia Lu dropped a drop of the fragrant dew in the porcelain bottle, and asked softly, "Miss, do you think this fragrance is suitable?"

"En!" Luo Mingchuan leaned against the edge of the bathtub with his eyes closed, half asleep and half awake in agreement.

After Xia Lu cleaned her hands, she massaged her.

While washing Luo Mingchuan's hair, Chuncao asked softly, "Girl, why didn't you mention Mr. Guo's matter to Mr. Xie?"

Luo Mingchuan said lightly: "Of course we can't just take advantage of that old fox!"

With Ding Tongzhi's participation, Guo Liang's case is no longer a simple case.

And it became a must for the two to fight.

Chuncao was a little worried, "What if the prefect Xie can't compete with Ding Tongzhi?"

Didn't Mr. Guo become their victim?

The corner of Luo Mingchuan's mouth raised a hint of sarcasm, "Unless Zhifu Xie wants to disarm and return to the fields."

Otherwise, he must win!
No matter who is standing behind Ding Tongzhi, he must win this round.

Chuncao thought about it, "That's right. If a dignified magistrate can't compete with a fellow magistrate, then it's too bad."

No matter what the reason is, it is enough to be laughed at for a year.

She believed that whether it was the Xie family or Zuo Mingtang, they definitely couldn't afford to lose that person.

Xia Lu said softly: "I see that the girl doesn't seem to take Xie Zhifu's words to heart."

"Hehe!" Luo Mingchuan sneered, "Prefect Xie has been aloof for many years, how could he take us reckless people in the rivers and lakes in his eyes?"

The reason why he said that was nothing more than to test her purpose of coming to the state capital.

Chuncao was not happy to listen, "I think our girls are much better than them!"

"It's just taking advantage of someone from a good background. What is there to be proud of?"

After a pause, she asked strangely: "I came to the state capital at the invitation of Mr. Zuo Mingtang."

"There's nothing wrong with it!" Why should he suspect that we have other plans?

She thinks everything is reasonable!

Luo Mingchuan sneered, "This is probably a common problem of those in high positions?!"

Doubt everything.

Always wanting to hold everything tightly in their own hands.

But I forgot that there is a saying in this world called "greedy can't chew through".

Luo Mingchuan stared at the rose petals in the wooden barrel quietly.

The corners of the mouth slightly curled up: I have already built the bridge for you, as for whether you can cross the bridge and how far you can go, it depends on your own abilities.

Ding Tongzhi wants to use Guo Liang as a raft?
Alright, then I'll let you taste what it's like to steal a chicken without losing money.

····························
Xie Kui held the teacup in his hand and looked at the old couple sitting opposite.

My heart is quite disturbed.

It was both reasonable and unexpected for the Guo family to find him.

When he put down the teacup, his mood also calmed down, and he asked knowingly: "Master Guo, Third Madam, I don't know why you two are looking for me?"

Master Guo San had a wry smile on his face, "I know, it's really inappropriate to come here."

"But, the dog's life is at stake, I really have no other way."

Xie Kui also sighed, "What the third master said is very true. It's just..."

He smiled embarrassedly, "You also know that I'm a soft-spoken person, and I really can't help you much."

You have found the wrong person.

The third master nodded quickly, "It's because the little old man is not sensible."

As he spoke, he took out a pouch from his sleeve and gently placed it in Xie Kui's hand.

Xie Kui was not that ignorant person either, he glanced at it and knew that it contained two 50 taels of silver ingots.

100 taels of silver? !
Not too many, but not too few.

In other words, he is qualified enough to find him to do things, and he won't be too embarrassing.

It's just a favor.

This Master Guo San is quite interesting.

Xie Kui thought with great interest, but said it very officially, "What is the third master doing?"

"I've said what I should say just now. You're... you're embarrassing me!"

The last sentence was slightly tinged with anger.

Master Guo San twitched the corners of his stiff mouth, almost crying, "Mr. Xie, please take pity on the poor old man."

Without waiting for Xie Kui to speak, he continued: "The dog is wronged!"

"Although the old man has some evidence in his hand, he can't trust anyone except you, Mr. Xie."

Xie Kui's eyes lit up, did Sleepy send a pillow?

This old man actually has evidence in his hand? !
"Ahem!" He coughed lightly to calm down his excitement, "The more I listen to the words of the third master, the more confused I become."

The third master Guo glanced at the third lady, and the third lady turned around and took out a pouch from her chest rustlingly.

Turned around and handed it to the third master.

Master Guo San put the things in Xie Kui's hand, and said with satisfaction and hope: "I hope these can be useful."

Xie Kui glanced at the purse in his hand, and then at the two trembling people.

I also wondered in my heart, what is it that makes the two of them so precious.

"what is this?"

Master Guo San said in a low voice: "You will know after looking at it."

Xie Kui put his eyes on the purse again, pondered for a while, and decided to open it.

·························
The largest and most famous teahouse in Linzhou Prefecture is Yunxiaolou.

Not only the books here are good, but the refreshments are also excellent.

Especially the private room here, even if you have money, you may not be able to get it.

At this time, in the private room on the third floor.

Xia Lu frowned, and stared dissatisfiedly at the bulging spring grass on her cheeks, "This plate of golden crisps has all gone into your stomach."

Anyway, restrain yourself!

Chuncao said vaguely: "It's delicious! Besides, we don't need to pay money."

Don't you have to eat hard? !

Luo Mingchuan gave her a funny look, "I abused you because of my feelings."

"No, no, of course it's gone." Chuncao smiled obsequiously.

"I just feel that they can't be cheap."

Xia Lu said softly, "You are not afraid of being looked down upon."

We felt that we had never seen the world's bumpkins. We ate three plates of golden crisps in a row, and other snacks and tea were not counted.

Chuncao didn't care, "Think whatever you want! Will this girl be afraid of him?!"

Well, you are amazing!
Xia Lu nodded in admiration.

Luo Mingchuan picked up a piece of dim sum and put it in his mouth, "Chuncao is right. Since they boasted about going to Haikou, they invited us to come to Yunxiao Tower for tea."

"Then you have to buy all kinds of bills. Ask them to order another portion of the famous dim sum in the store."

Xia Lu nodded happily, but before she could speak, she heard an uproar in the street downstairs.
