late Qing Dynasty arrest

The three gentlemen got out of the carriage. The house of businessman Zhang Yaozu was very easy to find. There was a banner at the door to invoke souls, and the sound of Taoist chanting could be heard on the street.

Li Guolou and his party were the only ones who came to worship the deceased Zhang Yaozu at four o'clock in the afternoon.The deceased has not yet been buried, lying in a coffin.Chinese people have a tradition of worshiping the appearance of the dead, bowing and kowtowing to the coffin.

Zhang Yaozu was originally a businessman. Three Westerners, one Oriental, and a fake foreigner came to the house to pay homage to the deceased. Although it looked very strange, the family members of the deceased still knelt on the ground and returned the gift meticulously. Thank you.

Li Guolou handed over the money for the funeral, some whole and some zero, five people signed it, and gave ten taels of silver plus five Tongzhi brothers.Li Guolou spent a lot of money, and a group of family members cried to Li Guolou and others.

Next, a woman served five bowls of glutinous rice balls out of the cauldron for Li Guolou and others to eat.There are two stuffed glutinous rice balls in each bowl of glutinous rice balls, which symbolizes that the family will still be reunited in the future.The three Frenchmen reluctantly swallowed the big glutinous rice balls with red bean paste sticking to their mouths, and Yelia looked like he was taking medicine.

Li Guolou said to the steward who entertained them, "Mr. Kong, please call out the heir of the deceased Zhang Yaozu's estate. I have some relics of the deceased to give to her."

After a while, three women and four children came out. They all focused their eyes on the crutch in Li Guolou's hand. When they entered the door from Li Guolou, they paid attention to this crutch.

This is the epitome of the ancient system of three wives and four concubines. One regular wife and two equal wives have the right to inheritance and enjoy equal treatment.The other wives and children are regarded as partial houses and have no inheritance rights, so they have to live their lives according to the faces of these three big women.

Li Guolou said: "The next Li Guolou is the capital's policeman. I happened to pass by the scene before Mr. Zhang Yaozu died. Unfortunately, I was too late. I robbed the silver box from the robbers. I'm really sorry, I didn't have time. Save Mr. Zhang Yaozu."

Li Guolou kowtowed to the widow of the deceased and pleaded guilty. He was also an accomplice of the robbers and did not avenge the deceased.He owed a robber his life and had to spare the robber's other accomplices.

There was another burst of compassionate crying and asking why?

With tears in his eyes, Li Guolou said: "I have stayed in the yamen for a long time, and I know the darkness inside, so I brought Mr. Zhang Yaozu's valuable relics here in person. Please forgive me. I can't talk about the case anymore. What difficulties will the family have in the future?" Come to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to find me."

The cane was handed to the wife first, and after the deceased Zhang Yaozu's relics, broken silver, copper coins and a stack of bank notes were handed over, Li Guolou bowed and turned around.

"Mr. Li, can the robbers be caught?"

The hissing cry made Li Guolou speechless, and choked up, "I'll give you an explanation, don't worry."

The three women grabbed Li Guolou's clothes and prevented Li Guolou from leaving, begging him to tell them how Zhang Yaozu died.

Li Guolou lowered his head, still speechless to the family of the deceased.He is the incarnation of justice and evil, there is no integrity at all, and the good side still exists, but if people in the arena want to mix in the arena, the only way to see who is superior is in the arena.The grotesque country of braids has created a group of people who are black and white.Either be unknown and be a compassionate citizen, or follow the trend and ascend to the pinnacle of power.Li Guolou is no longer the reckless, upright and kind-hearted straight man he was when he first returned to China. His ideal is to become strong, so strong that he can compete with any power.

The evening bell rang, startling a flock of pigeons on the bell tower, and the Catholic Xikai Main Church was sacred and solemn at dusk.The church was full of candles, and some people came in and some went out. Li Guolou, who had no faith, knelt on the ground and confessed to his heavenly father and mother.

Yelia Wood ran into the confession room to confess her love affair with the heretics to the priest. She had evil thoughts and lost her good nature, and asked the Lord to point her in the right direction.

The children in the choir started their evening classes, and the sounds of nature sounded together with the organ in the church.In such an environment, people will abandon worldly things. People keep throwing money, gold, silver, treasures and ornaments into the tall alms box, and Li Guolou is also queuing behind.

If you have done something wrong, go to church to pray and repent, and then you can start over.Li Guolou suddenly felt that believing in Jesus to gain eternal life is his future pursuit. People always have faith. When young, they pursue the ultimate physical pleasure. When they are old, they can only place their souls on spiritual beliefs.

Yelia was very satisfied with Li Guolou's performance, and praised: "Mike, do you believe in God?"

Li Guolou said: "As long as I can marry you, I am willing to convert to Catholicism."

"I will also convert to Catholicism." Mayuko confessed.

"Well! Let's hold a Han Chinese wedding first, and then go to the British Guild Hall to hold a luxurious Western wedding. If the bishop doesn't come, we can exchange rings by ourselves," Yelia said.

"Is this okay?" Li Guolou hesitated.

"Whatever, let's make a formality. At worst, I'll confess again." Yelia said boldly.

Li Guolou asked, "Yelia, what did you confess to the priest?"

Yelia sighed, "The gods in the west are the same as the gods in the east. Money can turn ghosts around. I spent money, and the priest forgives me. Don't worry, we will continue at night."

The carriage drove over, and Li Guolou asked, "Yelia, where should we go for dinner tonight?"

Yelia stepped into the carriage and said, "Master Liu, go home." Turning his head, he said, "Mike, what do you want for dinner, the two balls make me sick now. I'll be hungry later, let Edward make a sandwich."

Mayuko said: "I don't want to eat dinner either, Mike stop showing off on the street, people won't see you wearing new clothes at night."

Mayuko sees through Li Guolou's show-off nature, and walks on the street with two foreign women, just to show that he is a successful businessman.

Behind Mayuko, Li Guolou slapped Mayuko's buttocks. Little Japanese women just wanted to spank them.

Mayuko twisted her waist, turned her head to look at Li Guolou, and said, "Mike-kun, be serious outside, I am a serious Japanese woman."

Li Guolou got into the carriage and said, "Master Liu, stop in front of the Mox coffee shop, I'll go down and buy some smoked sausage, and bring some back to the capital."

Mayuko said: "Mike, don't give me bacon, I don't like it with Koizumi-kun."

Li Guolou said: "Yelia, buy more things and go home, otherwise people at home will criticize me."

Yelia hugged Li Guolou tightly, and said softly, "No, let's go home. Let Edward and Xie Rui take care of these things. They will stay here for a while. I just want to spend more time with you."

Li Guolou asked, "Yelia, are you used to my food?"

Yelia said: "You will get used to it gradually. Grandma is good at making bread. She already knows how to bake bread. Mike, if you want someone to deliver milk to me every day, there is no other requirement."

Li Guolou asked, "Yelia, isn't cheese okay?"

Yelia said, "Fresh milk is a must, as is cheese."

Li Guolou sighed: "Yelia, serving you is like serving Lafayette, the requirements are really high."

Yelia's small mouth moved closer, and said delicately, "I will reward you."

Li Guolou immediately pulled up the curtain in front to prevent people outside from seeing what happened in the carriage, and the three hugged and teased each other.When the carriage stopped at Mox Cafe, several people got out of the car. The smell of Blue Mountain coffee attracted them. It is also a good choice to have dinner here.

Edward and Xie Rui were still the first to enter the Mox Cafe, and Li Guolou was behind, saying, "Yelia, if I become your servant, I will never leave again. They are already middle-class."

Yelia smiled and said, "Mike, isn't it the same for you? A servant is a godson. He has money and a woman, and he has sold his whole life to you."

Li Guolou said: "It's better to have money. My master seems to be a revolutionary. In fact, he spends money to buy killers, and then instills beliefs in them, so that people will die with him. Yelia, you are also going this way now. It's dangerous."

Yelia wants to raise Li Guolou's family into a Catholic family. Isn't Li Guolou's family being led by the nose by Yelia? .

Yelia rolled her eyes at Li Guolou and said, "Don't make fun of your beliefs, or you won't be rewarded."

Yelia was not worried at all that Li Guolou would be disobedient. Ever since she knew Li Guolou, Li Guolou had always listened to her.Even with Mayuko's body, she needs to give orders.Next, Yelia will control Li Guolou's every move. Whoever asks her to be the oldest and experienced person at the helm, Li Guolou will not capsize.Yelia has already discovered the dark side of Li Guolou. Li Guolou is by no means a follower who follows the leader's ass. He is a person who can make friends with the underworld and the rebels, and his ambition is greater than the sky.

Drinking Blue Mountain coffee, Li Guolou said, "Mayuko, we won't be staying at your house tomorrow. If you think so, I will be beaten by your husband. Then I will give your husband some gifts, and we will break up."

Mayuko bowed and said: "Hi! I see, please Mike to work hard tonight, work hard!"

Yelia said: "Don't take the souvenirs of Mayuko, just bring food home, eat up and eat, there will be no future troubles."

Mayuko hesitated for the first time, seeing Li Guolou silent and pitiful, she was about to cry.

Li Guolou said: "Mayukko, those stolen goods were given to Mr. Koizumi, he must like this story."

Yelia nodded and said, "Hi! My husband will definitely like it. I have one last request, please agree to Mike."

"Say it! I won't be fooled again." Li Guolou was not polite.

Mayuko stretched out her right hand and said, "Mike, please give me your pocket watch. There is your picture on it. As long as I see your picture, I will have strength. Don't worry, masters, I can't find what I have hidden, Koizumi-kun." .”

Li Guolou was reluctant to give up, this pocket watch went abroad with him, although it is not a gold watch, it is not expensive, it has been repaired several times, but it already has feelings.Neither of his grandmas made such a request, the little Japanese woman is too much!

Yelia saw it, and said casually: "Mike gave it to Mayuko, and I'll buy you a new one tomorrow, with my photo on it, do you always know?"

Li Guolou said with a bitter face, "Dear Yelia, what about the two grandmas above?"

Yelia smiled casually, "Put it in the wallet."

Reluctantly, Li Guolou took out his pocket watch and handed it to Mayuko, staring at Mayuko who was crying. How would this poisonous little Japanese woman kill her husband?Li Guolou had already thought of a surefire way to kill.
