On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

Xiao Xiu and Xiao Xiao helped the frustrated Xiao Lian to the back.

Xiao Lian did have a fierce temper. Even before, she was ashamed, embarrassed and helpless. She wished that there was a crack in the ground for her to slip in and never come out to see anyone again.

Now he took a few deep breaths and calmed down: "I must have been implicated by him. That sick man offended someone, and others wanted to plot against him."

Xiao Xiao asked cautiously: "Second sister, don't you think that man looks familiar?"

She was relatively confident in her own eyes, and felt that the person whom the second sister was using as a backer should be Mr. Chen.

In this way, we can figure out that someone did want to plot against him, and his second sister also suffered a disaster.

If a few hundred years later, let alone the second sister using him as a backer, as long as they are both single, no one would have any objections even if they were just a backer.

But the current situation is indeed a bit bad.

Of course, she didn't want her second sister to marry high. Life in a wealthy family was difficult, and just like her second sister, she was worried that if she got in, she would get involved in a fight between wives and concubines, and she wouldn't be able to survive more than three episodes.

"Aren't all sick people like him?" Xiao Lian put her hands on her hips and said, "Okay, I'll stay inside, and you guys can go out and do your work?"

"Don't let this matter affect our store's business."

Having experienced life and death, some gossips cannot affect her at all.

Xiao Xiao thought for a while: "There are not many guests now. You don't need to go out. I will just go outside."

She had thought before that she could find a few young men to serve as waiters and clear the tables.

But grandparents all feel that their own family has more money, so why should they take advantage of others when they can earn the money?

He also said that when their father and second uncle came back, they would no longer have to work in the restaurant and would let them take over.

Although Xiao Xiao does not discriminate against his father's job.

In fact, she felt that she would be well-informed in the casino.

But no one in the family wanted her father to go back to his old career, and she would not encourage her cheap father to go to the casino.

It would be nice to have them come back and take over their work after that.

Unfortunately, I didn't expect that within a month, something would happen.

She was thinking about it, waiting for her eldest brother to come back... No, they went to see Cheap Dad and the others in the afternoon, why haven't they come back yet?

Could it be that something happened on the road?

I haven't heard that there are bandits here?

When she walked out, she saw Ms. Liu already behind the counter, talking to Jiang Yu and Chen Yibin with a repulsive expression on her face.

She took another quick glance and saw that people nowadays love to gossip. Because of the second sister's previous attack, many people were now whispering to each other.

Even if I have finished eating, I am still willing to get up and leave.

But she also discovered that the other two inconspicuous middle-aged men who were sitting at Jiang Yu's table had already left.

They didn't even finish the food they ordered, which was very inappropriate.

After all, what they order is all good food, but the way they dress, shouldn't they be such extravagant people?

She also walked behind the counter and heard Jiang Yu still apologizing to Ms. Liu in a low voice: "...it's my fault for not reacting. Auntie, don't be angry. I'll find two guys who can do the job quickly tomorrow." ?”

Chen Yibin also realized that this time he had made the two people staring at him no longer doubt him, but he had also ruined a girl's innocence.

Therefore, his mind became hot and he said: "Don't worry, aunt, I will be responsible." Mrs. Liu's face became even colder: "You don't need to be responsible, it's just some gossip. No one will mention it in a few days. .”

In a few days, my man and his brother will come back. With their height and age, they can shut up the gossips.

Therefore, she never thought about letting Mr. Chen take charge.

Xiao Xiao also came forward and whispered: "Brother Jiang, can you send this young master back first?"

The people at the center of the topic are gone, so the guests who have eaten well should be willing to leave, right?

Jiang Yu thought about it and pulled Chen Yibin away: "Shall I take you back first?"

He was even more afraid that those who were originally staring at Chen Yibin would change their focus and focus on the Xiao family.

Sure enough, after the two of them left, the diners who had eaten were sure that there was no excitement to see, so they could only get up and leave reluctantly.

Mrs. Liu saw her youngest daughter coming and asked quickly, "Is your second sister okay? Did she get hurt from the fall?"

Did she come out first when she heard the noise? She hadn't even gone to see Xiao Lian yet?

"Mom, don't worry, the second sister is not a petty person and won't take this matter to heart." She was a little worried: "It's almost dark, why haven't my grandfather, eldest brother and younger brother come back yet?"

Mrs. Liu was also worried: "That is, if you don't come back, the city gate will be closed, so you will have to spend the night outside the city."

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

Xiao Sanlang ran in: "Mother, third sister, we are back. Today we are unlucky. The shaft of the carriage broke down halfway. After repairing it for a long time, we finally came back in front of Guancheng Gate."

On the other hand, after Chen Yibin returned to the house, he went to the study to see Magistrate Chen: "Dad, nothing happened to you today, right?"

"It's okay, dad." County Magistrate Chen said in a gentle tone: "After all, I am in the government office, so they have to worry about it."

"It's you, you haven't fully recovered yet, why are you in such a hurry to go out?"

"I have heard about your great achievements. Fortunately, that is not your nature, otherwise I would die of worry."

As soon as he heard those gossips, he knew that his son went to Baihua Building on purpose to divert people's attention.

Chen Yibin got straight to the point: "Dad, I have fallen in love with a girl today, and I would like you and my mother to ask someone to propose marriage for me."

"What did you say?" Magistrate Chen's originally gentle voice changed its tone. He felt that this was like a bolt from the blue: "You don't really have a crush on the woman in Baihua Tower, do you?"

You can't blame him for thinking wrongly.

When he was young, he also went to Baihua Tower to sit there. Even he couldn't deny that there were a few girls who were really good at playing chess, calligraphy and painting. They were good at playing chess, calligraphy and painting, and they were more beautiful than flowers. No wonder they were allowed to accompany them, drink tea and listen to music. How about five taels of silver to start?

But he absolutely cannot accept that his second daughter-in-law is a girl from Baihualou.

If that girl had sung songs and poured wine for them, how embarrassing would it be to meet them?

Chen Yibin didn't expect his biological father to think so crookedly, so he twitched his lips and said, "Dad, you are overthinking. The girl I want to marry is the Xiao family girl."

"Ah." County Magistrate Chen was stunned: "Which Xiao family? What does the Xiao family do?"

Anyway, after much deliberation, he didn't expect any wealthy family in the city to have the surname Xiao.

However, he is an extremely open-minded elder. As long as the woman has no serious problems, he does not mind if the second daughter-in-law is a girl from a small family.

After all, if his son does not change his ambition, he will probably go to war. Who knows how many days he will be at home throughout the year.

They originally wanted to get him engaged, so that he would have something to worry about, and even if there was an eventuality, they could still leave a small seedling.
