Chapter 150: Pointed Red Lips (14)

"Huh?" Bu Ying narrowed his eyes immediately when he heard that his tone was wrong, "You mean to say that all of this is Madam Qi's handwriting and has nothing to do with Shopkeeper Qi?"

Ji Mingmei and I frowned when we heard that, without the cooperation of shopkeeper Qi, Mrs. Qi would never be able to accomplish these things, but listening to this guy's tone, it seems that everything is going to be pushed on Mrs. Qi.Reminiscent of the beggar's head being forced to hang himself, could it be that this guy was also coerced, and he would not hesitate to take him out to get shopkeeper Qi out?
"Originally, all of this was indeed Madam's handwriting." The guy looked extremely nervous, "But later I found out that everything is not the case."

"What the hell are you talking about?" Bu Ying frowned, "Why are you upside down?"

"You...you don't understand?" The guy took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and then said the matter again.According to him, all of this was indeed planned by Mrs. Qi, and had nothing to do with Shopkeeper Qi.Those letters from suppliers were all counterfeit by Mrs. Qi, and they were not genuine.

The purpose of Mrs. Qi is to let shopkeeper Yan and others select a person in the name of the minority obeying the majority. On the surface, they will bear the largest share of the reduction, but in fact they let this person suffer.This is a ceremony, because the He couple was killed in this name.

Miss Yan's family was also kidnapped by Mrs. Qi, and she was imprisoned in Yanzhi Town.Madam Qi used this to coerce Shopkeeper Yan to exchange his life for his life, and let him bite the poison and kill himself when she said "bang".After that, she arranged for someone to send out a letter every day, poisoning one person.In the beginning, everything was going according to plan.

But when Shopkeeper Yan died, when he went to release Miss Yan, he was discovered by a beggar in Yanzhi Town.The Yan family is also one of the real behind-the-scenes beggars in Yanzhi Town, so when the beggars found out that he had tied up the young lady of the Yan family, they were going to tell the Yan family and the other four families.

In desperation, he had no choice but to lie that the kidnapping of Ms. Yan was the order of shopkeeper Qi. The beggar was stunned when he heard the news. He already knew that Lao Yan was dead at that time, so as soon as he contacted the previous and subsequent events, he would probably get it right away. Come to a conclusion, that is, shopkeeper Qi is going to die.

The beggar head didn't dare to say anything at the moment, and retreated silently, and the guy took advantage of the opportunity to let Miss Yan go home.Although the clerk had deceived the beggar head with words, he was always worried that he would be stabbed by the beggar head to shopkeeper Qi.Fortunately, he did not, so Mrs. Qi was able to have those letters sent out one by one.

But just now, when he returned from delivering the letter at the inn, he met the beggar's family members on the way, and only then did he know that the beggar had hanged himself to death.During the conversation with that family member, he also learned one more thing - the letters Chu and Feng received were all sent by Beggar Head under the order of Shopkeeper Qi.

Shopkeeper Chu died shortly after receiving the letter, so the family always thought that the hanging of the beggar's head was related to this matter, and that Shopkeeper Qi was killing people to silence his mouth.The family had a good relationship with the guy, so seeing that he was also involved in sending letters, he couldn't help reminding him to be careful.

When the guy suddenly heard this, he was almost terrified, and his whole body felt as if he had fallen into a cave of ice.Because those letters were originally sent by him to the nearby city patrol horses and asked him to send them to Chu's house at the appointed time.But at this moment, the beggar's family said that the beggar had asked someone to send the letter.

He pretended to be calm when he was shocked, and when he asked clearly what happened, he became even more frightened.Because according to the family, Beggar once revealed that the correspondence between shopkeepers and suppliers has unique marks to prevent others from counterfeiting.Because Beggar had done many secret things for Qi, Feng and other five families, he knew that there was such a mark, but he didn't know what the specific mark was.

The guy didn't know about this before, so naturally he couldn't prepare the mark in advance, so if the letter he prepared was delivered to the shopkeepers, it would definitely be seen through at a glance.However, the strange thing is that none of the shopkeepers who received the letter pointed out that the letter was fake.What does this mean?
This shows that the letters received by the shopkeepers were indeed sent by the suppliers.However, these letters sent by the suppliers contained the content he had prepared and also applied the poison he had prepared.So even though these letters were really sent by the suppliers, the matter was carried out step by step according to Madam Qi's plan.

Reminiscing that these letters were actually sent by the beggar head, he immediately thought of one thing - it turned out that the beggar head was not deceived by his words at that time, but actually asked shopkeeper Qi.And when shopkeeper Qi learned that he had kidnapped Miss Yan, he didn't expose his lie, but admitted that the matter was indeed at his behest, then arranged for the beggar to deliver those letters, and intercepted his original plan Prepare those flawed letters.

"So the truth of the matter is that Mrs. Qi did not collude with Shopkeeper Qi, but Shopkeeper Qi pushed the flames to continue the matter when he learned of her plan!" The guy said with a pale face.

We originally thought that this guy was going to put all the charges on Mrs. Qi, and then pick out the treasurer Qi, but it was a big surprise that he would say these words.So shopkeeper Qi and Mrs. Qi were not conspiring together, but just helped her along the way, and Mrs. Qi didn't know about it until now?
If this is the case, then what is Shopkeeper Qi's intention?Do you want to use Mrs. Qi's name to get rid of the other four families, so as to keep yourself out of the matter?But he has already controlled the suppliers. If he wants to monopolize Rouge Town, he only needs to prevent the suppliers from supplying them; if it is not for the monopoly of Rouge Town, then why does he have to get rid of these four people?
We were all a little puzzled, Bu Ying looked at the guy even more suspiciously, and said in thought: "So, the purpose of you telling me these things is to get the Qi family and his wife out?"

The guy smiled wryly and said: "I came to Qi's house with my wife, not a guy of Qi's house, so I only obey my wife's order and do things—and only consider her safety."

"So you were worried that shopkeeper Qi would be unfavorable to Mrs. Qi." Bu Ying suddenly realized, "But I still don't understand, what is the purpose of shopkeeper Qi doing this?"

"You must already know that the madam came to Rouge Town for revenge." The man said, "I suspect that the shopkeeper already knows her reason for coming, and I'm worried that she will be bad for me sooner or later, so when she made a move on the other four families, she added fuel to the fire. So that she can be found guilty of her crime."

"Then let me arrest Mrs. Qi to ensure his own safety?" Bu Ying asked.

The guy hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Let me ask you a question, if Shopkeeper Qi wants to kill you in Yanzhi Town, do you think there is any way for him to make it impossible for people to hold him accountable?"

"With the Qi family's ability in Yanzhi Town, of course they have." The man's face was pale.

"That's all. If he has a way to kill you, can't he kill Mrs. Qi? If he is afraid that Mrs. Qi will do something to him, would it take so much trouble?"

The man was stunned by Bu Ying's words, but what Bu Ying said was indeed reasonable, thinking about the beggar's head, he knew the power of the Qi family in the town.Now that shopkeeper Qi's various motives have been subverted, why he did these things has become a mystery.

Thinking about the fact that the beggar head is dead now, and the shopkeeper Qi took away those poisonous letters, so for a while, we don't have any evidence to prove that the Qi family and his wife killed someone.The only thing that can be traced is the death of shopkeeper Quan. As long as the poison on Xiaosi's forehead is extracted, and then Madam Qi touched Xiaosi's forehead, it can be deduced that someone poisoned shopkeeper Quan.

But this can only convict Mrs. Qi, not shopkeeper Qi.Bu Ying asked the clerk where the Qi family and his wife are now, and the clerk replied that they were in their own room in the backyard.Bu Ying asked him to take him there, the guy was also a little worried about Mrs. Qi, so he really took us there.

When we got outside, the clerk knocked on the door for a while, but no one answered.The guy suddenly became anxious, but he didn't dare to break into the door.Bu Ying didn't have this concern, so he kicked the door open.After the door opened, what surprised us was that both the Qi family and his wife were in the room, and the shopkeeper Qi was actually giving Madam Qi some crimson lips!
Someone broke into the door, but neither of them cared.Shopkeeper Qi picked up a touch of Madam Qi's homemade rose rouge with her fingertips, and then wiped it on Madam Qi's lips.He painted it very slowly, as if he was carefully polishing Madam Qi's lips, and he took a long time before taking his hand back.

After his hand left her lips, Mrs. Qi pursed her lips, slowly smoothed the rouge evenly, and then smiled at the person in the mirror, with a detached expression, as if the two in the mirror were strangers people.Ji Mingmei and I looked at each other in dismay, because the scene in front of us was so familiar.

At that time in Caoxi Town, He Shaodong's family gave Madam He some crimson lips in this way.Now the scene in Caoxi Town is repeated before our eyes, but with two different people, it will inevitably make people feel a little weird.After Madam Qi sipped the rouge evenly, she stood up, turned around, smiled and said to Shopkeeper Qi, "It's really good."

As he said that, he leaned forward, intending to kiss shopkeeper Qi.Shopkeeper Qi didn't speak, but closed his eyes to meet her kiss.Seeing the two of them start to make out in front of our faces made us both a little uncomfortable.Bu Ying coughed lightly, reminding them that someone was around.

The Qi family couple seemed to have never heard of it. The kiss lasted for a long time, until Mrs. Qi tilted her head back and retracted her lips. The shopkeeper Qi licked her lips, as if she still wanted more, and then said with a smile: "We have been married for so long, and this is our first kiss." kiss."

We were all a little surprised when we heard the words. We thought they were like this every day, but who knew that this was their first kiss?
Mrs. Qi didn't speak, but just looked at shopkeeper Qi quietly.Shopkeeper Qi met her gaze, but still smiled and said, "So even if the rouge is poisonous, I'll be happy with it."

Rouge is poisonous!
We were all horrified, if the rouge Mrs. Qi put on her lips was poisonous, then... wouldn't she be using herself as a bait to die with Shopkeeper Qi?The guy tremblingly called out: "Ma'am!"

Mrs. Qi smiled at him, then turned to look at Shopkeeper Qi, slightly surprised: "Do you know that rouge is poisonous?"

Shopkeeper Qi nodded with a smile, and said quietly: "You have concealed your life experience very well, so Lao Feng and the others can't find out the relationship between you and the He family couple."

Madam Qi showed a trace of curiosity, "Could it be that you found out?"

"I didn't check." Shopkeeper Qi seemed to think of something, with a look of intoxication, "I know you—I knew you more than twenty years ago."

"Impossible, I only met you after I came to Yanzhi Town." Mrs. Qi said decisively, "That was only ten years ago, how could you know me more than twenty years ago?"

"I met you once at He's house, the time you broke off the engagement with Mr. He, but you didn't notice me at all." Shopkeeper Qi said to himself, "At that time, Mr. He recruited us to help him with affairs. I haven't promised him yet. But the moment I saw you, I made up my mind that I would be a legitimate person, legitimate enough to be worthy of you."

When Madam Qi heard this, her eyes widened in astonishment.Not only her, but we were also extremely shocked.It was mentioned in the letter from the county that He Shaodong's family once had a marriage contract with someone, but it was dissolved later.Unexpectedly, Mrs. Qi turned out to be He Shaodong's former fiancée!

"How beautiful you were at that time." Shopkeeper Qi fell into the memory, with a fascinated look on his face, "I remember that time you wore a western suit. Western suits were rare at that time, I thought to myself , this girl is really pretty, and she's a nice person. Mr. He wants to break off the engagement with you, and everyone scolds him for being heartless. Only you, come to him alone and tell him that if he falls in love with the young lady of the He family but marries You, that is the real heartless heart."

It turned out that shopkeeper Qi accepted He's solicitation because of Mrs. Qi!When I think of this, I can't help but feel a little weird.For her sake, shopkeeper Qi wanted to get rid of his identity as a beggar and become a legitimate person, so he accepted the invitation of the He family to build Yanzhi Town.

But before Yanzhi town was built, they killed the He couple.Many years later, Mrs. Qi came to Yanzhi Town alone and married him, but it was to avenge the He couple.Shopkeeper Qi didn't expect that he finally saw the person he was thinking of again, but he was already the target of her revenge.

He knew the purpose of her coming to Rouge Town, but he still married her.I don't know how shopkeeper Qi felt when he woke up late at night and looked at the person next to his pillow for more than ten years.
