Chapter 8 Local Tyrant

"Damn, who dares to say that I'm a poor ghost!" Shen Wansha jumped up all of a sudden, turned to look at the person coming, his movements were intentionally or unintentionally exaggerated.The pearl blue robe on his body was swayed lightly, Lu Li vaguely saw the brilliance of the cloth, and there seemed to be purple cloud patterns under the light...

It's a pity that the winter weather in central Sichuan is always gloomy and there is no good sunshine. This change is only noticed by Lu Li.

Lu Li believes that Shen Wansha is rich, and may have a good status, at least the material of the clothes is good, but others may not be able to see it.

He looked across coolly, Liu Wenli was walking with a girl.The one who spoke was the girl walking in front, with slender eyebrows and raised chin, her posture was haughty, followed by two rows of servants, male and female.Liu Wenli stood beside her and took half a step behind her. Obviously, this girl had a higher status than her.

When the girl spoke, Liu Wenli's eyes flickered, and she didn't dare to look at Lu Li.

I think I'm guilty.

When the girl looked at Lu Li, her eyes were extremely disgusted. It seems that most of what she said just now was aimed at him... It should be provoked by Liu Wenli.

The tip of Lu Li's eyes drooped slightly, hiding the coldness in his pupils. It seemed that Liu Wenli felt that the money was too little.

Zhang Meng looked uncomfortable, and pulled Lu Li and Shen Wansha's sleeves, "That's the sister-in-law of the county magistrate in the neighboring county, named Qin Lurou, and she has a very bad temper. The Qin family is very powerful in Guan County, so it's not easy to provoke character."

Lu Li frowned slightly.Zhang Yong works in the county government office, will these upper-level connections affect him...

He grabbed Shen Wansha who was eager to try and rush forward, "A good man doesn't fight with a woman, whether he is poor or rich, it doesn't matter what she says, if he blocks someone's way, it is right to give way."

He smiled and pointed to the largest shop on the corner of the street, "Aren't you going to spend money there? Let's go."

Shen Wansha rolled his eyes and gave Lu Li a look of appreciation.It's really out of style to quarrel with a woman in the street. If he spends it wildly, won't others know that he is rich?This face-slapping pose is the best!So he raised his chin and walked forward with his hands behind his back, "Go to Lu Li, let's see what good things we can come across today!" Without even looking at the two girls, they seemed to be ants on the ground.

Lu Li saw that he was not able to fight back the anger at first, but he calmed down so quickly, he secretly praised him, he was stable.

Zhang Meng trotted behind with his things in his hands to keep up.

The three swaggered away, Qin Lurou's small face turned pale, "How dare you ignore me!" She squinted at Liu Wenli, "Look what kind of relatives you have here!"

Contrary to her silent appearance just now, Liu Wenli stepped forward with a smile, hugged Qin Lurou's arm and shook it lightly, "Why are you angry with them, it's just that you don't know anything about the screwdriver... If you are really angry, I will help you deal with them later!"

Qin Lurou squeezed her face, "Do you dare? Isn't that your relative?"

"The shameless skinny bastards who can't be beat, who treats them as relatives!"

The two girls talked and laughed, and they didn't move forward, they just chatted at the side of the stall that Lu Li had seen just now.Saying she was happy, Qin Lurou waved her hand grandly, "The things on this stall are a bit wild, so come and choose, if you like Miss, I'll take care of it all!"

This is even the favor of the servants on both sides.

Liu Wenli thanked her with a smile on her face, and beckoned everyone to come over, "Sister Qin is such a generous master, there is nothing better, why don't you hurry up and grab it!"

Seeing that the master was happy, the servants naturally came over to make fun of him, all with smiles on their faces, thank you, and said auspicious words without repeating the same.

Qin Lurou was very happy to be praised.

Just when the atmosphere here was extremely warm, and even the stall owner was very happy with all kinds of flattery, the largest jewelry shop on the corner suddenly hung up red silk and set off firecrackers. The steward came out and knocked on the gong, "We are overjoyed, we have changed the owner of Zhenbao Pavilion! Today is a good time, and the new owner is grateful to give back. All the treasures, jewelry utensils, hairpins and rings in the store are [-]% off!"

The commotion was so loud that no one could hear it. Those who had something good to do grabbed the steward and asked, "Who is the new owner? Such a big deal?"

The steward glanced towards Qin Lvrou and Liu Wenli intentionally or unintentionally, and pointed to the stall, "Our new owner's surname is Shen, and he is the young man who was looking at gadgets at the stall just now."

"Oh--"

Someone raised his voice and looked this way meaningfully.

The New Year's Eve is approaching, and there are many people on the street. The embarrassment between Qin Lurou, Liu Wenli and Lu Li and Shen Wansha just now is not unnoticed, especially Qin Lurou is very famous in the county, and the Qin family is not a small family. Time matters a lot.

As a result, Miss Qin just finished scolding the poor man, and the 'poor man' directly bought a jewelry store...

Compare that to Miss Qin who bought the entire stall just now...

Someone couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud "poof".

Qin Lurou's face was livid, she glanced around, and asked Liu Wenli through gritted teeth, "What's the name of that scumbag in your family?"

Liu Wenli rolled her eyes, "The surname is Lu, and the name is Lu Li. But he has nothing to do with us, he is only close to the head catcher Zhang's family."

"Catcher Zhang? Zhang Yong?" A calculation flashed in Qin Lurou's eyes, and when he came back to see the silence around him, he turned around angrily, "Go home!"

On the side of Zhenbao Pavilion, Lu Li stared blankly at Shen Wan who was negotiating with the shopkeeper.

He thought that the local tyrant had a good temper and didn't care about women, but who knew that Shen Wansha was not calm at all, came to ask him what he wanted, and when he said no, Shen Wansha bought the whole shop directly...

There is an owner behind Zhenbao Pavilion. It is reasonable to say that the entire shop will not be sold easily, but a businessman is always a businessman. As long as the money is sufficient, there is nothing to talk about, so Shen Wansha became the new owner of Zhenbao Pavilion very quickly. Of course Procedures or something, to be filled later.

After Shen Wansha talked with the shopkeeper, he pulled Lu Li to look out of the window, "Quickly find out where that sharp-mouthed ugly woman is, the young master is so angry that she vomited blood!"

Seeing Qin Lurou angrily leading people away from a distance, surrounded by ordinary people who were pointing and laughing, Shen Wansha smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, he was very happy.

Lu Li rubbed his forehead, he was wrong, this local tyrant...is not stable at all!

Apart from this point, Shen Wansha actually has a good personality, generous and talkative, not coquettish and arrogant like rich people, and it is easy to get along with others and become friends.

But in the end, Lu Li still didn't want anything from Shen Wansha. He just promised him that if he was in trouble, he could be called by someone, and he also gave him his address.

On the way back, Zhang Meng blinked and blinked, looking at Lu Li curiously.

Lu Li asked him what he was looking at, but Zhang Meng just laughed and said nothing, making Lu Li feel a little uncomfortable.When he was about to get home, he took the things in Zhang Meng's hand, "I can go back by myself, go and see if Aunt Cao needs help, and call me if you need anything."

Zhang Meng nodded his head and ran away, saying in his heart that he was right, Brother Li is so powerful that anyone can take him down!

Lu Li walked to the door and was about to push the door when he suddenly noticed someone beside him.

Liu Wenli walked over slowly, her face was a little pale, obviously she had been waiting for him for a long time.

Lu Li raised his eyebrows slightly, "Is there something wrong?"

Liu Wenli's eyes flickered, "I'm here to remind you that you offended Ms. Qin today, so be careful these days!"

"So I should thank you for reminding me?" Lu Li narrowed his eyes slightly.

Liu Wenli straightened her back, "Of course, if it's not for the sake of relatives, why would I remind you!"

"It seems that my cousin still has a lot of private houses." The corners of Lu Li's mouth raised, revealing a slightly evil smile, "I'm short on money recently, so my cousin can bring some money to spend with me."

"You—" Liu Wenli gritted her teeth angrily, "That much money is not enough! I won't give it any more, don't you dare threaten me!"

"What happened today, my cousin knows in her heart, do you really want to help me, or plot against me, I also understand," Lu Li gritted his teeth, "I don't like to suffer, if you give me money, I will forgive you , if you don’t give it to me, it’s okay to say, just wait for the storyteller’s story in the teahouse tomorrow.”

After speaking, he pushed the door into the courtyard and closed the door with a 'snap', very indifferent.

Liu Wenli flushed with anger, stomped her feet, and ran to the main courtyard with her skirt in hand.

In a panic, she forgot etiquette, opened the door and shouted, "Mom! Why do we keep that scumbag! Drive him out!"

Feng Shi was looking at this month's account book. Hearing this, he put down the account book, lightly patted the seat beside him, and smiled slightly, "Li'er is here, come and sit."

She is not tall, with a slender and graceful figure, a small face, a pair of amorous eyes, and a soft-spoken voice. She looks very soft and beautiful, making one unable to bear to speak loudly to her.

In fact, her kung fu of 'melting fingers and softening' is really good. With just a slight smile and a few words, Liu Wenli calmed down and sat down obediently.

Feng stroked her hair, "Mother, what's wrong with Li'er? Girl Yi Zhenjing, when you are in a hurry, you have to go through it several times in your heart when you say or do something. You forget what mother told you." ?”

Although her voice was soft, it seemed to be under a lot of pressure. Liu Wenli bit her lip and lowered her head, "Mother, my daughter knows I was wrong..."

"Very good." Feng Shi stuffed a cup of tea into her hand, watched her drink it slowly, waited until the cup of tea was finished, and paused for a while before she asked slowly, "Lu Li is in the way again?" is you?"

Liu Wenli calmed down and realized that there were some things she couldn't say, otherwise her mother would have to pick her skin off, "It's nothing..."

"It's nothing that you're so excited about?" Feng's face was full of disbelief.

Liu Wenli had no choice but to talk about what happened today, "He didn't know how to wink and offended Qin Lurou... Mother knows the Qin family's background, Qin Lurou is not easy to mess with, I'm afraid our family will be in trouble."

"Mother's good daughter..." Mrs. Feng hugged Liu Wenli, with a gentle and elegant smile, "What a sweet little padded jacket."

"But it doesn't matter. Lu Li is Prince Ping's engaged wife. If the Qin family knows about this, they won't pursue it anymore. Don't worry."

"But..." Liu Wenli bit her lip, a little unwilling, "Can't we drive him out?"

"At least not now." Looking at the gloomy sky outside, Feng looked at the twelfth lunar month soon, and the New Year's Ceremony at Prince Ping's Mansion was coming... "Doesn't Li'er like the things sent by the Palace? Drive him away, Li I can't get these things anymore."

Liu Wenli was a little reluctant. The things sent by Prince Ping's mansion were not available in this small county. With those things, she won the limelight many times... "Mother, will Prince Ping really marry Lu Li?"

"How is that possible." Feng Shi sneered, feeling bad after laughing, regained her gentle appearance, and scratched Liu Wenli's nose, "These are adults' affairs, so don't worry about children, eh?"

Liu Wenli wrinkled her nose, "I know, how could King Ping want to marry a man with such a big family business?"

"When the marriage contract was signed, the two parties agreed that they would marry Lu Li before he was eighteen, and he would be sixteen after the new year. Time is running out..." Feng patted Liu Wenli's head, "Mother wondered about Prince Ping's marriage. It will come next year, Lier can perform well."

Liu Wenli blushed, "What did mother say, how could I..."

Feng Shi smiled, "Mother's Li'er is good everywhere, if she wants to look good, if she wants to be virtuous and virtuous, she deserves a better family. The palace... Mother doesn't have too much hope, I can rely on this relationship to find you A good husband, my mother will be satisfied."

Liu Wenli stamped her feet shyly, "I won't tell my mother!" she turned and ran out of the room.

Feng's slender fingertips tapped on the table, her passionate eyes were full of calculations, her daughter deserves the best...

It started to rain at night, not heavy, but thin and continuous, it fell on the body as a layer of water mist, and it fell off as soon as you slapped it.This kind of rain is the most annoying, take an umbrella, I think it is too exaggerated, don't take an umbrella, people will feel uncomfortable after being soaked for a long time, especially in winter, no matter how light the rain is, it will bring chills, and the bones will hurt.

Fifteen miles away from Guan County, more than a dozen horses came galloping. The first horse was black all over, with four white hooves. tall man.

The man has cold eyes with sword eyebrows, his lips are slightly pursed, and the lines on his face are as sharp as a knife.He was lying on the horse, his fingers holding the rein were a bit rough, and the shape of the muscles on his arms and thighs was faintly visible. This was an extremely powerful man who used force all the year round.

When he reached a deserted and slightly dilapidated temple, the man raised his hand and stopped his horse.

Immediately someone stepped forward, "My lord?"

"Rest here." The man's voice was low and chilly.

Someone lit a torch, and the fire reflected the rain and landed on the man. A little crimson in the man's throat was clearly visible, like bloodstains, and it was eerie.

"My lord...the vehicles for the New Year's ceremony in the mansion will take two days to arrive."

"It's okay, let's advance to the city."

The man looked ahead, as if he wanted to see something in the city through the sky...
