Black-bellied Xianggong: Cute wife is not easy to mess with

Chapter 160 Overtook (VIII)

Seeing Shi Tianci's silence, Bai Yuhe became unhappy, and said, "I already promised you that my father will only accept your charcoal, why don't you want to?" Then he urged him: "Hurry up! Go to Shangneighboring County to buy charcoal, otherwise I won’t be able to help you after the purchasing time.”

Shi Tianci had no choice but to patiently explain to her: "Going to neighboring counties, the travel fare is too expensive, it's really not worth it, besides, charcoal is not available now, at least it won't be until late autumn, but when I leave for neighboring counties in late autumn , and then transport it back, I’m afraid it will be too late.”

It turned out that it was due to the cost and time. Bai Yuhe understood, bowed her head and pondered for a moment, and said, "Then why don't I help you find out who booked the charcoal in Xing County, Quanyang?"

This is what Shi Tianci wanted, and was about to answer, when he saw Simei secretly pulling Bai Yuhe's sleeve from behind, Bai Yuhe immediately changed his words: "But it's inconvenient for Simei and I to go out these few days, You should ask yourself."

Could it be that she is going to hide here for several days?Shi Tianci was displeased in his heart, but he didn't show it, he responded with a low voice, and went out.

As soon as he walked around the screen wall, he saw Gu San looking at him excitedly, he couldn't help but glared at him.Gu San was puzzled and said: "Brother, the eldest daughter of the Bai family has already lived in our bookstore, what are you still worried about?"

Shi Tianci was so angry that he didn't hit one place, and roared in a low voice: "What are you worried about? What do you say I am worried about? The eldest girl of the Bai family is a lady who is completely ignorant of world affairs. She doesn't understand anything. She has no idea about charcoal. it can not be helped!"

Gu San was overjoyed: "As long as you marry her, what charcoal do you need?"

Shi Tianci glared at him, and said, "What nonsense are you talking about, I'm a married person now."

Only then did Gu San realize that Shi Tianci was going to marry Mu Qinglian, so he quickly shut his mouth.But after thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong... Shi Tianci only said that he had a marriage contract, but didn't say that with his current status, he was not worthy of Bai Yuhe?In other words, in fact, he still has ideas?Gu San didn't dare to think about it anymore, he quickly bent down and continued to clean up the mess in the store.

Shi Tianci stomped on those books for a long time before he stopped and said, "Miss Bai's words are right. I really should go and find out who bought the charcoal." Let's go." With that said, he hurried out.

In the Mu family, in the west chamber, Jinyu was busy putting some herbs and supplements into boxes, and was going to go to Nie's house to visit Nie Tai'an at the order of Mu Qingwan—although according to Wan Ren, Nie Tai'an was fine, But Mu Qingwan was still worried. After all, she was a lifesaver. If something happened to her, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.

Jinyu packed up the big and small boxes, hugged her and walked out. Just as she walked outside, she met Laiwang's daughter-in-law head-on, and hurriedly called out to Lingxiu who was by the door. Lingxiu came out, led Laiwang's wife in, and then automatically He went to guard the door.

Laiwang's daughter-in-law looked left and right, walked straight in front of Mu Qingwan, lowered her voice, and said with a little excitement in her tone, "I'm here today, and I have two things to tell you!"

"What's the matter?" Mu Qingwan replied, while thinking, Xin Da, brother-in-law of Laiwang, who went to Langqiao County, should also come back.

Laiwang's daughter-in-law said in a low voice: "The first thing to do is shopkeeper Shi. I'm asking around who is the person who bought the charcoal from Xing County, Quanyang!"

"Oh?" Shi Tianci's move was completely within Mu Qingwan's expectation, so she only raised her eyebrows.

Laiwang's daughter-in-law said again: "Because the third girl didn't order to keep it secret, he already knew that I was the one who packed the charcoal. He was trying to stop me these days and asked me to share some charcoal with him, but I No answer."

"Well, it's good to adjust his appetite more." Mu Qingwan nodded approvingly.

What?tantalize?Laiwang's daughter-in-law was stunned: "From what you mean, should I sell the charcoal to him?"

"Of course I have to sell it to him, otherwise I have to bother to get Bai Cai to accept my goods." Mu Qingwan smiled and picked up the timeline in front of her and flipped through it, then beckoned Wang's wife to come over and whispered After a few words, he added: "When he comes to ask again, you will quote this price, and let him buy all the charcoal that is more than twice what he expected, otherwise you will not sell it."

Can it still be like this?Laiwang's daughter-in-law gave Mu Qingwan a surprised look, but she agreed without asking anything, and said, "Okay, leave it to me."

Mu Qingwan asked: "Didn't you say there is one more thing? What is it?"

Laiwang's daughter-in-law got excited and was even more excited than before, saying: "Miss San, you don't know that there are women hiding in Tongru Bookstore!"

"What?!" Mu Qingwan was really taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "How is this possible? Who is it?"

Laiwang's daughter-in-law recounted the situation when she saw the sedan chair that day, and said: "Beside the sedan chair, there are only maids and no servants. In addition, there is a red veil faintly showing through the gap in the sedan window. It was a girl, and the person in the sedan chair got off the sedan chair at the Tongru Bookstore, and never appeared again!"

"Really?!" Mu Qingwan's eyes widened in surprise, "Are you sure you're not mistaken? Shopkeeper Shi is already engaged!"

Laiwang's daughter-in-law covered her mouth and smiled: "I was afraid of making mistakes, so I followed the shop assistant a few times, and found that he actually bought rouge powder one day and delivered it to the shop. I don't believe that shopkeeper Shi would use this!"

man?When did Tongru Bookstore have a buddy? Why didn't she, the shareholder, know about it?Mu Qingwan touched the timeline on the table suspiciously, wondering if she should go and find out by herself, or reveal the news to Mu Qinglian.

She thought about it carefully, and decided to go for a walk by herself first, otherwise, if the person living in the store is not a girl, her efforts will be wasted.

After thinking about it, she raised her head and looked out the window, and suddenly saw Shi Tianci walking in from the second door, looking around while walking.Laiwang's daughter-in-law followed her gaze and saw Shi Tianci, and hurriedly said: "He must have followed me in. I met him at the gate earlier. He wanted to pester me about charcoal. I made an excuse I had to rush to deliver food to the third girl, so I got away."

Mu Qingwan immediately stood up and said, "Then this is a good time for me to find out. Now go talk to him about the charcoal, hold him back, and I'll go to the bookstore."

"Success." Laiwang's daughter-in-law nodded and turned to go outside.

Mu Qingwan watched Shi Tianci welcome Xianglaiwang's daughter-in-law, chatted enthusiastically with her, hurriedly entered the clean room and changed clothes, took Lingxiu outside, and greeted Shi Tianci when passing by, but Shi Tianci's The attention was obviously not on her, but he nodded at her belatedly.
