Chapter 676 The Pretty Wine Thief
Chapter 676 The Pretty Wine Thief
The incident of An Jie's poisoning has dealt a big blow to Xiangmanlou. Although shopkeeper Wu has been released and Xiangmanlou has begun to reopen, but in the past two days, except for Jin Can who came to the door alone, there is not even a single customer. Shopkeeper Wu looked very worried.
Lin Yuanxia Zheng also knew that if this continued, Xiangmanlou might really be destroyed.
What's more powerless is that there has been no progress in the truth behind An Jie's poisoning. Wang Hongsheng was afraid that he would be in trouble, and he never showed his face after that day.
Tang Qing came twice, and drank tea with Xia Zheng for a long time with a smiling face like a tiger, but he didn't hear a word from Xia Zheng's mouth.Tang Qing, who was very bored, did not dare to come.In the name of clearing Xiangmanlou of his crimes, he stayed in the mansion to be lazy.
Today, the person that shopkeeper Wu sent out to inquire about the news came back. It seemed that it was different from what Luo Meiyan said. Although the members of the An family disapproved of An Yixiang inheriting the family business as a woman, they had no malice towards An Jie at all. .There are even several elders in the clan who strongly demand that An Jie inherit the position of Patriarch as soon as possible.
In this way, as the only male in the An family who is qualified to inherit the position of Patriarch, it is said that he will not be poisoned by the clansmen.
Lin Yuan thought about it secretly, and thought that the root cause of An Jie's poisoning was in An's house. After discussing with Xia Zheng, the two planned to go to An's house again.
Unexpectedly, before he went out, he was attracted by a small figure.
Xiao Linshuang, here we come.
As soon as he saw her, Xia Zheng's face changed. Looking at the door again, he did not see Lao Fan's shadow.
"It's been a few days since I went back, and you brought her here? Didn't you tell me to pick up Lao Fan? Why did you bring her here?" Xia Zheng asked in a deep voice, obviously very upset that Lao Fan didn't come. dissatisfied.
Ji Dong rubbed his nose. This was the first time he failed to complete the task Xia Zheng gave him, but he couldn't help it!He wanted to tie the old man here, but the old man is a doctor, and he is very good at using poison and medicine. He couldn't even get in the door of the room, so he was so poisoned that he was itchy all over.
Compared with Ji Dong's guilt, Xiao Linshuang became angry with righteousness: "Brother-in-law! What do you mean by that? Don't you welcome me? Huh! In vain, I was thinking that the master would not come. If no one will help you, you will Crying, is that what you did to me!"
Xiao Linshuang is upset, it's not a joke!
Xia Zheng chuckled, and hurriedly said good things, coaxing and persuading him, and finally made this little ancestor happy after agreeing to two drawers of steamed buns and three cups of bird's nest porridge.
However, although there is no Lao Fan, Xiao Linshuang is also good. Her current medical skills can be said to be advancing by leaps and bounds, especially in terms of poison, which is even better than Lao Fan.
Since she was going to An's house to investigate, Lin Yuan didn't say much, and directly brought the little things with her. With her child's identity as a cover, she would definitely be able to find out a lot of secrets.
At the gate of An's house, Lin Yuan saw An Yixiang arranging the skirt of the woman in front of her with a doting expression from a distance.The girl was delicate and cute, her eyes were very lively, her little nose wrinkled up and down when she spoke, she was very playful, she looked like An Yixiang's daughter.
"Why are you here again?" Seeing Lin Yuan and the others, An Yixiang frowned, very displeased.Although she knew Xia Zheng's status was good, but as long as it was about her children, she couldn't put on a polite smile.
Lin Yuan smiled, but before she could speak, An Yixiang's daughter, An Yue'er, spoke first: "It's your family's food that poisoned my eldest brother? Hmph, looks are born from the heart, and everyone looks extremely treacherous! "
Lin Yuan was taken aback, but Xia Zheng burst out laughing, extremely treacherous?This is the first time someone has used such an adjective to describe him!Really fresh.
Lin Yuan smiled wryly, and shook her head. Not only did An Yueer resemble her mother in appearance, but she also resembled her temperament. She was so domineering and forthright.
"Okay, Yue'er, mother will take care of your elder brother's affairs properly." An Yixiang reached out and stroked her daughter's hair, urging: "Hurry up and get on the carriage, don't let Er, don't let Er Young Master wait in a hurry gone."
As soon as the second son was mentioned, An Yue'er's eyes and brows flew up with joy, and she responded crisply. When she got into the carriage, she didn't forget to give Lin Yuan and the others a look to show her disgust.It's just that her eyes are playful and cute, but such a stare has no deterrent effect at all, but it still gives people a naive and lively feeling.
After sending An Yueer away, when An Yixiang turned to look at Lin Yuan and the others, the expression on her face had changed from pampering to impatient and disgusted, and even Xiao Linshuang couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "This face has changed!" It's really fast, even better than my little brother!"
Hearing that she compared An Yixiang with Xiao Yongyan who only knew how to nurse and cry at home, Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng looked at each other and couldn't help laughing in a low voice.
This smile also startled An Yixiang who was walking in front, she glanced at them inexplicably, and snorted: "Don't think that Jie'er regards you as friends, I will let you go, you let my son suffer innocently by poisoning, I won't let you go so easily!"
After Xu Shi met Lin Yuan and the others last time, An Jie's body was very weak, this time An Yixiang refused to leave no matter what he said.Lin Yuan simply wanted to verify some things with her, so she didn't say anything.
Luo Meiyan helped An Jie to sit in the living room, and went to the back hall to prepare chrysanthemum tea for him.
Lin Yuan rolled her eyes and whispered a few words in Xiao Linshuang's ear. Xiao Linshuang blinked and jumped off the high stool: "Sister, I want to go. It's convenient for me to go."
An Yixiang likes children the most. Although she doesn't like Lin Yuanxia Zheng, she loves Xiao Linshuang very much, so she immediately asked her maid to take her out.
"Master Xia, do you have something to ask me?" An Jie seemed to look a little better than last time when we met this time, but his words were still soft.
Lin Yuanxia Zheng glanced at each other and said their guess. As soon as the words came out, An Yixiang suddenly exclaimed: "What did you say? The murderer is in my house? Say it again!"
Xia Zheng squinted his eyes, feeling disgusted by An Yixiang's sudden rudeness. He ignored her before, but it didn't mean he was afraid of this crazy woman. If he dared to be unfavorable to Lin Yuan, he wouldn't mind letting the Patriarch of the An family change in advance .
Sensing Xia Zheng's emotional fluctuations, Lin Yuan patted the back of his hand reassuringly, then turned her head and said, "Patriarch An, as I just said, Mr. An's poisoning is very strange, and the people who ate with him that day are all fine. This means that the person who poisoned him was either a few people who ate at the same table with him that day, or someone from the An family."
Of course, the person eating at the same table is not alone, it is impossible for them to collude to murder An Jie.In this way, the real poisoner, as Lin Yuan guessed, is in Anjia!
Hearing this, An Yixiang frowned, and her eyes rolled around. Suddenly, she clenched the handle of the chair tightly, her eyes widened, and she looked at Luo Meiyan who was bringing tea into the door and shouted: "You, come back!" room to go!"
Luo Meiyan subconsciously trembled, her hands trembled, the light yellow tea spilled out, and the scalding hot water fell on the back of her white hands, she didn't seem to feel it at all.
An Jie didn't expect his mother to change his face suddenly, he stood up hurriedly and rushed to his daughter-in-law, took the teacup from her hand, and blew the red back of his hand for her distressedly.
Seeing her son's disappointment, An Yixiang's chest heaved with anger, her face turned pale, she pointed at the two with trembling fingers, her lips opened and closed in a daze, not knowing what to say.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward. Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng looked at each other, not knowing whether to leave or stay and watch the upcoming battle between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
At this moment, a refined figure walked in, first glanced at Lin Yuanxia Zheng apologetically, then walked up to An Yixiang, and comforted him softly: "Forgot what you promised me? Why are you angry again?"
An Yixiang, who has always had a hot temper, immediately calmed down after seeing this person, with a hint of grievance: "Cheng Lang, Jie Er, Jie Er..."
"I know, I know everything."
The person who came was An Yixiang's husband, Li Jiacheng. He was originally the second son of the Li family in Yecheng.Those who didn't know thought it was the Li family climbing Gao Zhi'er, who wanted to settle down and support their own business.But only An Yixiang knew that he gave up his identity as the son of the Li family because of her.
The moment she saw Li Jiacheng, Lin Yuan finally understood why a woman with a temperament like An Yixiang would give birth to a son like An Jie with a strong scholarly atmosphere and a gentle personality.It turned out that of the son and daughter, one followed An Yixiang and the other followed Li Jiacheng.
Li Jiacheng looked at his son and daughter-in-law, then at Lin Yuan and the two of them, clasped his fists together and said, "I'm really sorry to make you laugh at me. We still have some family affairs to take care of, so I invite you two..."
He didn't finish his words, but the meaning was very obvious.
Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng are very smart, how can they not see some inside story?Not to mention whether the person who poisoned her was Luo Meiyan, it was still the An family's business, and it was really not good for them two outsiders to be present.
Xia Zheng also cupped his hands, and said solemnly: "Patriarch An, Master Li, we shouldn't have intervened in Mr. An's poisoning. It's just that this happened in my Xiangmanlou, and my reputation in Xiangmanlou was affected by it. Damage, please give Xiangmanlou an explanation after the two of you deal with it."
Compared with An Yixiang's straightforward temper, Li Jiacheng is more like the head of the family.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xia, as long as it is found that the dog poisoning has nothing to do with your store, I will visit you personally to rectify your store's name."
With his consent, Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng left together.It's just that when An Jie and his wife passed by the door, An Jie suddenly raised his head and glanced at them. His eyes were all-encompassing, and it was really hard to tell what he was thinking.
Xiao Linshuang, who was going to the hut, also came running up and down when they were going out. Lin Yuan took the little sister's hand and got into the carriage without saying a word.
"How is it? Did you find anything wrong?" Lin Yuan asked anxiously as soon as she got into the carriage, holding the little girl's hand.
Xiao Linshuang smiled proudly: "Of course, I, Lin Shuang, can't find the problem if I go out?"
Being amused by the little girl's smirk, the gloom just now was swept away.
"Okay, I won't joke with you." Xiao Linshuang looked like a little adult, sitting upright and said: "I took advantage of the maid sister who took me out not paying attention, slipped into the back hall, and found the beautiful sister you showed me She was in a daze when I suddenly appeared and scared her so much that she even dropped the chrysanthemums in her hand. As for those chrysanthemums..."
"How is it? Are chrysanthemums poisonous?" Lin Yuan asked anxiously.
Xiao Linshuang thought for a while: "It's not poisonous. But I always feel that there is something wrong with those chrysanthemums, and that pretty sister is holding the chrysanthemums in a daze, as if, seems a little entangled, um, yes, entangled."
daze?Tangled?Could it really be Luo Miyan?Are those chrysanthemums poisonous?It's a pity that An Jie hasn't felt his pulse yet, and he doesn't know what kind of poison he has been poisoned.
Xia Zheng tapped on the small table with his fingers, frowned tightly, and said softly: "I'm afraid the An family still has some family affairs that we can't let us know. All we can do now is to wait for the guests to come to the door with peace of mind."
"That's right, I guess, it won't be long." Lin Yuan smiled and gave Xia Zheng a look that only two people could understand.
Guests coming?What guest?
Xiao Linshuang looked at the eldest sister and Xia Zheng suspiciously, but really couldn't figure out what the two were playing dumb.
In Zhuma Town, Liu Limin inspected the newly brewed wine in the past few days, and praised the new winemakers with great satisfaction.I have to say that the ginger is still old and spicy. The skills of these brewers are really not boastful, and all of them are good at top ten.It's really a pity that Meng Tong doesn't know how to cherish.
After chatting with the masters for a while, Liu Limin went to the wine cellar to check the stored wine.Following Lin Yuan's suggestion, this wine cellar was newly opened underground. Not to mention, the wine stored underground is really more flavorful than the wine on the ground.
What Liu Limin is most proud of is that the jars hidden in the depths of the wine cellar have become famous. Every time she comes to the wine cellar, she has to check it herself before she can rest assured.It's just that something is wrong today!
As soon as Liu Limin came down to the wine cellar, she smelled an unusually strong aroma of wine. If she hadn't been soaked in wine for a long time in the past few months and had developed some immunity to the smell of wine, she might have been overwhelmed by the wine at this time. The full fragrance of wine was drunk.
"Is there a jar that leaked wine?" Such a strong smell, if it really leaks, it's not a matter of one jar or two jars, at least seven or eight jars.
Liu Limin's heart throbbed with pain when she thought that the wine she had worked so hard to brew was drained in vain.
"The little guy who was working must have been lazy and moved in without sealing the wine jar. Huh, let's see how I punish you for wasting so much wine! Ouch, I feel so sorry for you!"
While muttering, Liu Limin checked the wine racks row by row, but after checking several rows, she found nothing wrong.What's even more strange is that the more she walked inside, the stronger the smell of the wine became.
Liu Limin couldn't help worrying and wondering. What worried her was that the more she went in, the more top-quality wine was stored. If she accidentally spilled out, her loss would be even greater.What is puzzling is that she comes to check almost every day, why didn't she find that these top-quality drinks had leaked before?
Just as she was thinking about it, Liu Limin's delicate little nose moved, the smell became stronger and stronger, and she was so oppressed that she couldn't breathe.It seems that the source of the leaking wine is here!
Liu Limin hurriedly turned the wine shelf, and when she saw the scene in front of her, she suddenly exclaimed, couldn't help taking two steps back, and bumped into the wine shelf with a bang, and the wine jars on the shelf couldn't help but jingle .
This, is this a leak?This is obviously a wine thief!
I saw a few empty wine jars poured out in the open space in front of me. A handsome man in white was lying on his back in the wine with his eyes closed. , with blood-red lips that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, and there were still a few drops of sparkling wine hanging from the corner of his mouth.Obviously, the man was drunk and fell asleep.
But even when he is asleep, the man's posture is still suave and suave. Even if there are wine jars scattered around and drinks left all over the floor, he still gives people a sense of immaculate demeanor.
If ordinary people see such a man who is as beautiful as a banished fairy, they will definitely be overwhelmed by his appearance.However, Liu Limin seemed to be a beautiful insulator by nature, her first impression when she saw this man was a messy drunk, and her first reaction was to raise her foot and kick him hard on the thigh.
just.
The moment Liu Limin lifted her foot, she suddenly stopped. She looked around vigilantly, and remembered that when she went down to the wine cellar, the door of the wine cellar was intact.That being the case, how did this wine thief get in?
"It's over, it's over, this guy must be a master! If I kick down impulsively, wouldn't I be asking for my own death?" Liu Limin bit her lips, thankfully this guy was so drunk that he didn't realize that someone had already entered beside him.
She took a few steps back slowly, carefully picked up the rope used to tie the wine jars in the corner, and tied someone's two feet first.
While tying it, Liu Limin couldn't help admiring in her heart: "This fucking is a man's foot? Apart from being a little bigger, what is the difference between it and a woman's foot? Oh, I really want to take off his shoes and take a good look at this foot! "
While being tied up, the man seemed to move. Liu Limin's arms froze, and she did not dare to move while supporting someone's feet with both hands. Her eyes also stared nervously at someone's exquisite sleeping face until she felt Both of my hands were numb, so I let out a sigh of relief, and continued to tie my feet.
"Although your feet are pretty, who told you to steal my wine? Don't blame my sister for being cruel. Hey, forget it, who will let my sister know how to pity the beauty and cherish the jade, please tie it looser for you."
Liu Limin was talking to herself with her head down, and she didn't let go of her hands. Once she tied her, she tied someone's feet tightly together.She didn't notice that someone's originally good-looking brows were slightly frowned, and the corners of his mouth were also twitched.
After tying her feet, she was about to tie someone's wrists again, only to realize that she had used up all the rope she had.
"Oh, you're so stupid." Looking at the ankle tied like a rice dumpling, Liu Limin slapped her forehead, "I forgot to leave a rope to tie my wrist!"
After searching around, she found that there was no other rope in the wine cellar that could bind people. Liu Limin looked down at her skirt, and as soon as she gritted her teeth, she was about to tear the hem of the skirt: "What if you take advantage of me to go out?" What should I do if I ran away while looking for the rope? No, if you escaped, who would I pay for the money? Forget it, I can use my sister’s skirt to tie your wrists. My sister’s skirt is a new dress that was just made yesterday. You have to pay my sister for a new dress then!"
As soon as her little hand touched her clothes, Liu Limin blinked her eyes and shook her head: "No, this lonely man and widow, if I tear up my skirt again, will my reputation still be lost? Although I don't plan to marry, But you can't ruin your reputation just because of a wine thief!"
Rolling her eyes, Liu Limin looked at someone's snow-white clothes, chuckled, squatted down, and tore the front of his robe to pieces.
"Although you are good-looking, your conduct is really bad. Using your own clothes to tie your wrists is not considered bullying you. Oh, by the way, your clothes are used to tie yourself, so don't think about it." Ask my sister to pay you for your clothes!"
While muttering, Liu Limin pulled the hem of the torn clothes into strips, and then put the empty wine jar of top-quality champion red in his hand aside distressedly: "I hid this wine in the innermost part. You can actually turn it out. Is your nose a dog? Why are you so smart? Huh, if you stole my wine, then you can’t leave! See if I don’t tie you up hard, making you want to slip away I can't slip away either!"
"Don't worry, as long as you give me a drink, even if you drive me away with a stick, I won't leave."
Liu Limin buried her head in tying someone's wrist, and snorted, "Give me back the wine? Stop dreaming! I'm not bragging, but now my wine is the best in Zhuma Town. If you want to drink it, you can drink it." Drinkable? If you hadn't sneaked into my wine cellar, I would..."
Liu Limin babbled on for a long time, then suddenly stopped with a bang, her whole body became stiff, even the fingers that tied the rope were bent.
Did someone talk to her just now?who?who?
Do I need to ask anyone?In this wine cellar, besides her and the beautiful wine thief in front of her, is there anyone else?
Liu Limin swallowed hard, all kinds of ferocious faces of Wang Yang's bandit suddenly appeared in her mind, she didn't dare to raise her head, for she was afraid that someone would wipe her neck with a knife when she raised her head, and she would never see the sun of tomorrow again .
But how should she escape?
Liu Limin regretted it very much at this time, why didn't she rush out to call someone the first time she saw the wine thief?If she hadn't been greedy for money and worried that this guy would take the opportunity to escape, and her drink money would have been wasted, why would she have fallen into this dangerous situation now?
Sometimes she regretted, sometimes she was shocked, and she forgot that she was still holding someone's jade-like hands, and even because someone's skin was very slippery, she couldn't help rubbing it.
This caress made someone amused.
"My son knows that it is too much to drink your wine without your consent. However, girl, if you want me to pay you money, I am still capable, but if you want me to promise you with your body, how about you?" Please hold me high, girl, and let me go!"
What a body promise!Why is this guy talking nonsense?
Being so provoked by someone, Liu Limin's stubborn temper overcame all worries and fears, and she suddenly raised her head and hummed: "Stop putting gold on your face! Will my aunt and grandma take a fancy to you? Ah? With your looks like that , ahem, that, this."
Liu Limin choked on her own saliva, my God, what did she see?Ouch, how can a man be so beautiful, so beautiful?He was already very good-looking when he closed his eyes just now, but when he opened them now, the deep pupils were full of light, really captivating.
But a certain person didn't have any self-knowledge at all, so he raised his pretty eyebrows and approached her, and asked softly with a half-smile: "Huh? How do I look? Don't you think I'm good enough for you?"
This voice is so charming!
Liu Limin moved her throat awkwardly, but found that her mouth was so dry that she couldn't even swallow her saliva.
A certain person rolled his eyes, leaned closer, and said in a softer and more enchanting voice, "Girl, do you have any intention of staring at her so closely? And your hand, don't you want to let go of her?" Is it? His wrist hurts from your grip!"
Liu Limin subconsciously let go of someone's hands, but when those hands left her hands, she not only felt that her hands were empty, but also felt that her heart was also empty, and she really wanted to put those hands back together again. Hold it in your own hands!
A certain person's hand was free, but his body didn't move back. He smiled lightly and moved closer, showing an even more bewitching smile: "Girl, you are such a sympathetic person. It must have been in your previous life that someone can be close to you." Made a fortune."
Snapped!
An exceptionally crisp voice sounded from under the two of them, and someone's bewitching smile instantly shattered, and he looked at the woman in front of him in disbelief.
As for the woman who was stared at by him, the lost look on her face disappeared, and she suddenly smiled triumphantly and treacherously: "The wine thief! My aunt dares to play tricks under her nose, don't you take my aunt too seriously?" What's wrong?"
Someone's fingers are stiff, not knowing whether to continue or let go.
Guess what kind of poison is in Anjie?In fact, it is not poisoning to be precise, it is related to food anyway, lol~
(End of this chapter)
The incident of An Jie's poisoning has dealt a big blow to Xiangmanlou. Although shopkeeper Wu has been released and Xiangmanlou has begun to reopen, but in the past two days, except for Jin Can who came to the door alone, there is not even a single customer. Shopkeeper Wu looked very worried.
Lin Yuanxia Zheng also knew that if this continued, Xiangmanlou might really be destroyed.
What's more powerless is that there has been no progress in the truth behind An Jie's poisoning. Wang Hongsheng was afraid that he would be in trouble, and he never showed his face after that day.
Tang Qing came twice, and drank tea with Xia Zheng for a long time with a smiling face like a tiger, but he didn't hear a word from Xia Zheng's mouth.Tang Qing, who was very bored, did not dare to come.In the name of clearing Xiangmanlou of his crimes, he stayed in the mansion to be lazy.

Unexpectedly, before he went out, he was attracted by a small figure.

As soon as he saw her, Xia Zheng's face changed. Looking at the door again, he did not see Lao Fan's shadow.
"It's been a few days since I went back, and you brought her here? Didn't you tell me to pick up Lao Fan? Why did you bring her here?" Xia Zheng asked in a deep voice, obviously very upset that Lao Fan didn't come. dissatisfied.

Xiao Linshuang is upset, it's not a joke!
Xia Zheng chuckled, and hurriedly said good things, coaxing and persuading him, and finally made this little ancestor happy after agreeing to two drawers of steamed buns and three cups of bird's nest porridge.
However, although there is no Lao Fan, Xiao Linshuang is also good. Her current medical skills can be said to be advancing by leaps and bounds, especially in terms of poison, which is even better than Lao Fan.

"Why are you here again?" Seeing Lin Yuan and the others, An Yixiang frowned, very displeased.Although she knew Xia Zheng's status was good, but as long as it was about her children, she couldn't put on a polite smile.
Lin Yuan smiled, but before she could speak, An Yixiang's daughter, An Yue'er, spoke first: "It's your family's food that poisoned my eldest brother? Hmph, looks are born from the heart, and everyone looks extremely treacherous! "
Lin Yuan was taken aback, but Xia Zheng burst out laughing, extremely treacherous?This is the first time someone has used such an adjective to describe him!Really fresh.

Seeing her son's disappointment, An Yixiang's chest heaved with anger, her face turned pale, she pointed at the two with trembling fingers, her lips opened and closed in a daze, not knowing what to say.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward. Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng looked at each other, not knowing whether to leave or stay and watch the upcoming battle between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
At this moment, a refined figure walked in, first glanced at Lin Yuanxia Zheng apologetically, then walked up to An Yixiang, and comforted him softly: "Forgot what you promised me? Why are you angry again?"
An Yixiang, who has always had a hot temper, immediately calmed down after seeing this person, with a hint of grievance: "Cheng Lang, Jie Er, Jie Er..."
"I know, I know everything."
The person who came was An Yixiang's husband, Li Jiacheng. He was originally the second son of the Li family in Yecheng.Those who didn't know thought it was the Li family climbing Gao Zhi'er, who wanted to settle down and support their own business.But only An Yixiang knew that he gave up his identity as the son of the Li family because of her.
The moment she saw Li Jiacheng, Lin Yuan finally understood why a woman with a temperament like An Yixiang would give birth to a son like An Jie with a strong scholarly atmosphere and a gentle personality.It turned out that of the son and daughter, one followed An Yixiang and the other followed Li Jiacheng.
Li Jiacheng looked at his son and daughter-in-law, then at Lin Yuan and the two of them, clasped his fists together and said, "I'm really sorry to make you laugh at me. We still have some family affairs to take care of, so I invite you two..."
He didn't finish his words, but the meaning was very obvious.
Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng are very smart, how can they not see some inside story?Not to mention whether the person who poisoned her was Luo Meiyan, it was still the An family's business, and it was really not good for them two outsiders to be present.
Xia Zheng also cupped his hands, and said solemnly: "Patriarch An, Master Li, we shouldn't have intervened in Mr. An's poisoning. It's just that this happened in my Xiangmanlou, and my reputation in Xiangmanlou was affected by it. Damage, please give Xiangmanlou an explanation after the two of you deal with it."
Compared with An Yixiang's straightforward temper, Li Jiacheng is more like the head of the family.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xia, as long as it is found that the dog poisoning has nothing to do with your store, I will visit you personally to rectify your store's name."
With his consent, Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng left together.It's just that when An Jie and his wife passed by the door, An Jie suddenly raised his head and glanced at them. His eyes were all-encompassing, and it was really hard to tell what he was thinking.
Xiao Linshuang, who was going to the hut, also came running up and down when they were going out. Lin Yuan took the little sister's hand and got into the carriage without saying a word.
"How is it? Did you find anything wrong?" Lin Yuan asked anxiously as soon as she got into the carriage, holding the little girl's hand.
Xiao Linshuang smiled proudly: "Of course, I, Lin Shuang, can't find the problem if I go out?"
Being amused by the little girl's smirk, the gloom just now was swept away.
"Okay, I won't joke with you." Xiao Linshuang looked like a little adult, sitting upright and said: "I took advantage of the maid sister who took me out not paying attention, slipped into the back hall, and found the beautiful sister you showed me She was in a daze when I suddenly appeared and scared her so much that she even dropped the chrysanthemums in her hand. As for those chrysanthemums..."
"How is it? Are chrysanthemums poisonous?" Lin Yuan asked anxiously.
Xiao Linshuang thought for a while: "It's not poisonous. But I always feel that there is something wrong with those chrysanthemums, and that pretty sister is holding the chrysanthemums in a daze, as if, seems a little entangled, um, yes, entangled."
daze?Tangled?Could it really be Luo Miyan?Are those chrysanthemums poisonous?It's a pity that An Jie hasn't felt his pulse yet, and he doesn't know what kind of poison he has been poisoned.
Xia Zheng tapped on the small table with his fingers, frowned tightly, and said softly: "I'm afraid the An family still has some family affairs that we can't let us know. All we can do now is to wait for the guests to come to the door with peace of mind."
"That's right, I guess, it won't be long." Lin Yuan smiled and gave Xia Zheng a look that only two people could understand.
Guests coming?What guest?
Xiao Linshuang looked at the eldest sister and Xia Zheng suspiciously, but really couldn't figure out what the two were playing dumb.
In Zhuma Town, Liu Limin inspected the newly brewed wine in the past few days, and praised the new winemakers with great satisfaction.I have to say that the ginger is still old and spicy. The skills of these brewers are really not boastful, and all of them are good at top ten.It's really a pity that Meng Tong doesn't know how to cherish.
After chatting with the masters for a while, Liu Limin went to the wine cellar to check the stored wine.Following Lin Yuan's suggestion, this wine cellar was newly opened underground. Not to mention, the wine stored underground is really more flavorful than the wine on the ground.
What Liu Limin is most proud of is that the jars hidden in the depths of the wine cellar have become famous. Every time she comes to the wine cellar, she has to check it herself before she can rest assured.It's just that something is wrong today!
As soon as Liu Limin came down to the wine cellar, she smelled an unusually strong aroma of wine. If she hadn't been soaked in wine for a long time in the past few months and had developed some immunity to the smell of wine, she might have been overwhelmed by the wine at this time. The full fragrance of wine was drunk.
"Is there a jar that leaked wine?" Such a strong smell, if it really leaks, it's not a matter of one jar or two jars, at least seven or eight jars.
Liu Limin's heart throbbed with pain when she thought that the wine she had worked so hard to brew was drained in vain.
"The little guy who was working must have been lazy and moved in without sealing the wine jar. Huh, let's see how I punish you for wasting so much wine! Ouch, I feel so sorry for you!"
While muttering, Liu Limin checked the wine racks row by row, but after checking several rows, she found nothing wrong.What's even more strange is that the more she walked inside, the stronger the smell of the wine became.
Liu Limin couldn't help worrying and wondering. What worried her was that the more she went in, the more top-quality wine was stored. If she accidentally spilled out, her loss would be even greater.What is puzzling is that she comes to check almost every day, why didn't she find that these top-quality drinks had leaked before?
Just as she was thinking about it, Liu Limin's delicate little nose moved, the smell became stronger and stronger, and she was so oppressed that she couldn't breathe.It seems that the source of the leaking wine is here!
Liu Limin hurriedly turned the wine shelf, and when she saw the scene in front of her, she suddenly exclaimed, couldn't help taking two steps back, and bumped into the wine shelf with a bang, and the wine jars on the shelf couldn't help but jingle .
This, is this a leak?This is obviously a wine thief!
I saw a few empty wine jars poured out in the open space in front of me. A handsome man in white was lying on his back in the wine with his eyes closed. , with blood-red lips that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, and there were still a few drops of sparkling wine hanging from the corner of his mouth.Obviously, the man was drunk and fell asleep.
But even when he is asleep, the man's posture is still suave and suave. Even if there are wine jars scattered around and drinks left all over the floor, he still gives people a sense of immaculate demeanor.
If ordinary people see such a man who is as beautiful as a banished fairy, they will definitely be overwhelmed by his appearance.However, Liu Limin seemed to be a beautiful insulator by nature, her first impression when she saw this man was a messy drunk, and her first reaction was to raise her foot and kick him hard on the thigh.
just.
The moment Liu Limin lifted her foot, she suddenly stopped. She looked around vigilantly, and remembered that when she went down to the wine cellar, the door of the wine cellar was intact.That being the case, how did this wine thief get in?
"It's over, it's over, this guy must be a master! If I kick down impulsively, wouldn't I be asking for my own death?" Liu Limin bit her lips, thankfully this guy was so drunk that he didn't realize that someone had already entered beside him.
She took a few steps back slowly, carefully picked up the rope used to tie the wine jars in the corner, and tied someone's two feet first.
While tying it, Liu Limin couldn't help admiring in her heart: "This fucking is a man's foot? Apart from being a little bigger, what is the difference between it and a woman's foot? Oh, I really want to take off his shoes and take a good look at this foot! "
While being tied up, the man seemed to move. Liu Limin's arms froze, and she did not dare to move while supporting someone's feet with both hands. Her eyes also stared nervously at someone's exquisite sleeping face until she felt Both of my hands were numb, so I let out a sigh of relief, and continued to tie my feet.
"Although your feet are pretty, who told you to steal my wine? Don't blame my sister for being cruel. Hey, forget it, who will let my sister know how to pity the beauty and cherish the jade, please tie it looser for you."
Liu Limin was talking to herself with her head down, and she didn't let go of her hands. Once she tied her, she tied someone's feet tightly together.She didn't notice that someone's originally good-looking brows were slightly frowned, and the corners of his mouth were also twitched.
After tying her feet, she was about to tie someone's wrists again, only to realize that she had used up all the rope she had.
"Oh, you're so stupid." Looking at the ankle tied like a rice dumpling, Liu Limin slapped her forehead, "I forgot to leave a rope to tie my wrist!"
After searching around, she found that there was no other rope in the wine cellar that could bind people. Liu Limin looked down at her skirt, and as soon as she gritted her teeth, she was about to tear the hem of the skirt: "What if you take advantage of me to go out?" What should I do if I ran away while looking for the rope? No, if you escaped, who would I pay for the money? Forget it, I can use my sister’s skirt to tie your wrists. My sister’s skirt is a new dress that was just made yesterday. You have to pay my sister for a new dress then!"
As soon as her little hand touched her clothes, Liu Limin blinked her eyes and shook her head: "No, this lonely man and widow, if I tear up my skirt again, will my reputation still be lost? Although I don't plan to marry, But you can't ruin your reputation just because of a wine thief!"
Rolling her eyes, Liu Limin looked at someone's snow-white clothes, chuckled, squatted down, and tore the front of his robe to pieces.
"Although you are good-looking, your conduct is really bad. Using your own clothes to tie your wrists is not considered bullying you. Oh, by the way, your clothes are used to tie yourself, so don't think about it." Ask my sister to pay you for your clothes!"
While muttering, Liu Limin pulled the hem of the torn clothes into strips, and then put the empty wine jar of top-quality champion red in his hand aside distressedly: "I hid this wine in the innermost part. You can actually turn it out. Is your nose a dog? Why are you so smart? Huh, if you stole my wine, then you can’t leave! See if I don’t tie you up hard, making you want to slip away I can't slip away either!"
"Don't worry, as long as you give me a drink, even if you drive me away with a stick, I won't leave."
Liu Limin buried her head in tying someone's wrist, and snorted, "Give me back the wine? Stop dreaming! I'm not bragging, but now my wine is the best in Zhuma Town. If you want to drink it, you can drink it." Drinkable? If you hadn't sneaked into my wine cellar, I would..."
Liu Limin babbled on for a long time, then suddenly stopped with a bang, her whole body became stiff, even the fingers that tied the rope were bent.
Did someone talk to her just now?who?who?
Do I need to ask anyone?In this wine cellar, besides her and the beautiful wine thief in front of her, is there anyone else?
Liu Limin swallowed hard, all kinds of ferocious faces of Wang Yang's bandit suddenly appeared in her mind, she didn't dare to raise her head, for she was afraid that someone would wipe her neck with a knife when she raised her head, and she would never see the sun of tomorrow again .
But how should she escape?
Liu Limin regretted it very much at this time, why didn't she rush out to call someone the first time she saw the wine thief?If she hadn't been greedy for money and worried that this guy would take the opportunity to escape, and her drink money would have been wasted, why would she have fallen into this dangerous situation now?
Sometimes she regretted, sometimes she was shocked, and she forgot that she was still holding someone's jade-like hands, and even because someone's skin was very slippery, she couldn't help rubbing it.
This caress made someone amused.
"My son knows that it is too much to drink your wine without your consent. However, girl, if you want me to pay you money, I am still capable, but if you want me to promise you with your body, how about you?" Please hold me high, girl, and let me go!"
What a body promise!Why is this guy talking nonsense?
Being so provoked by someone, Liu Limin's stubborn temper overcame all worries and fears, and she suddenly raised her head and hummed: "Stop putting gold on your face! Will my aunt and grandma take a fancy to you? Ah? With your looks like that , ahem, that, this."
Liu Limin choked on her own saliva, my God, what did she see?Ouch, how can a man be so beautiful, so beautiful?He was already very good-looking when he closed his eyes just now, but when he opened them now, the deep pupils were full of light, really captivating.
But a certain person didn't have any self-knowledge at all, so he raised his pretty eyebrows and approached her, and asked softly with a half-smile: "Huh? How do I look? Don't you think I'm good enough for you?"
This voice is so charming!
Liu Limin moved her throat awkwardly, but found that her mouth was so dry that she couldn't even swallow her saliva.
A certain person rolled his eyes, leaned closer, and said in a softer and more enchanting voice, "Girl, do you have any intention of staring at her so closely? And your hand, don't you want to let go of her?" Is it? His wrist hurts from your grip!"
Liu Limin subconsciously let go of someone's hands, but when those hands left her hands, she not only felt that her hands were empty, but also felt that her heart was also empty, and she really wanted to put those hands back together again. Hold it in your own hands!
A certain person's hand was free, but his body didn't move back. He smiled lightly and moved closer, showing an even more bewitching smile: "Girl, you are such a sympathetic person. It must have been in your previous life that someone can be close to you." Made a fortune."
Snapped!
An exceptionally crisp voice sounded from under the two of them, and someone's bewitching smile instantly shattered, and he looked at the woman in front of him in disbelief.
As for the woman who was stared at by him, the lost look on her face disappeared, and she suddenly smiled triumphantly and treacherously: "The wine thief! My aunt dares to play tricks under her nose, don't you take my aunt too seriously?" What's wrong?"
Someone's fingers are stiff, not knowing whether to continue or let go.
Guess what kind of poison is in Anjie?In fact, it is not poisoning to be precise, it is related to food anyway, lol~
