Before fleeing famine, marry a playboy!

Chapter 230 From now on, wherever the male and female evil spirits are present, Jiang Li will be use

Xie Shi's ears quickly blushed. It was not the first time that Li Yuening kissed him.

But my heartbeat has never been stronger than this time, and my throat is a little dry, probably because I walked too fast and didn't drink water.

He swallowed involuntarily, but his eyes could not be taken away from Li Yuening.

Li Yuening noticed his predicament, and the smile on her face became brighter. She gently pushed Xie Shi, with a hint of ridicule in her tone: "Idiot, what are you doing standing there?"

Xie Shi finally came back to his senses and turned his head away in panic, "I...I'll go get you a glass of water." After saying that, he hurried to the table.

The action of pouring water was a little stiff, and Xie Shi's hands were shaking slightly. He secretly regretted his loss of composure.

When Xie Shi handed the teacup to Li Yuening, his eyes met her smile again, and the tension in his heart instantly disappeared.

Li Yuening chuckled, her almond eyes curved into crescents, and she shook her head and said, "I think you need it more than I do."

Seeing this, Xie Shi withdrew his hand and drank the wine in two gulps. The weather has been getting hotter recently.

The atmosphere in the room gradually eased. Xie Shi said, "I just came back and met a group of people at the city gate. From what they said, they should be coming for the male and female evil spirits."

"I hope it's lotus noodles." Li Yuening turned her wrist. "I've been so tired of dealing with these trivial matters lately that my hands are a little itchy."

"I hope so." Xie Shi coughed twice and changed the subject: "It's not very clear from what Feiyi said. Can you tell me in detail what happened to Xie An?"

Li Yuening, "He refused to say. From what he said, I guessed it was related to the Jinling merchants. You said before that they wanted to contact you, but you refused.

They probably went to Xie An, and Xie An only said that he owed money, but I guess it was more than that, so I asked Fei Yi to find out."

"Before, Xie An was under pressure from the old man, so he didn't dare to act rashly. Now, he feels that no one in the Xie family can control him.

With his temperament, he was so repressed before and so arrogant now. "Xie Shi was a little worried, "If he really caused trouble, will it affect our schedule tomorrow?"

"The son inherits the father's property. They probably thought that Xie An was the current head of the Xie family, so they set a trap for Xie An. The rotten boat still has three pounds of nails. These dead objects in the Xie family that cannot be moved are also worth some money.

Now that the Xie family is leaving, I'd better try it out. If I can get a little bit, it will be a profit.

Unfortunately, Xie An is no longer in charge of the Xie family. Those people haven't come to us yet because they haven't figured out the current situation of the Xie family.

What Xie An promised has nothing to do with us. If he refuses to admit it, what can we do to him?" Li Yuening said with cunning in her tone.

Xie Shi scratched the tip of her nose and said, "You are really good at playing tricks."

"Or do you have a better idea?"

"No." Xie Shi changed the subject and said, "I saw Xian Xin at Hua Weimian's place. Did you ask her to go there?"

Li Yuening nodded, "Mrs. Jin has left. I want to see if Xianxin is really determined to follow me.

I gave her two choices. If Ruxianxin wanted to go find her sister, she could just leave. I had kept her there to piss off Madam Jin.

If she goes directly to Hua Weimian, I will know her plan and I will use her in the future. I will tell Hua Weimian what to do in the letter."

"Are you testing her?"

"I guess so. After all, compared to Xian Ge and Xiao Sui'er, she was snatched from her opponent and she has considerable skills.

If your heart is not with us, you won’t feel at ease when using it.”

"Well, now it seems that she really intends to give up her sister."

Li Yuening thought of the maid, who looked okay but seemed too shrewd. She felt a little unhappy, "Her sister is too calculating. I think Xian Xin must have suffered a lot at her hands. Maybe her disfigurement was also caused by her sister."

"No way, I heard from Xianxin that they are sisters." Xie Shi couldn't believe it.

"That's hard to say. Second Uncle and Uncle Xie are brothers, but they were both given the drug to make them sons no longer have children."

Xie Shi stopped talking.

It was dark outside. Li Yuening said, "It's getting late. Let's go to Shiyueju."

Li Yuening told Xiaosui'er to rest early and then went to the space with Xie Shi.

The food in the space was ripe again. Li Yuening asked Xie Shi to build a few more granaries. She planned to fill these granaries and then start planting cotton on a large scale.

"I don't know if the land in the northwest is suitable for growing cotton. Even if it is, we can't afford it for the time being for the sake of food and clothing, so we'd better stock up some ourselves first." Li Yuening told Xie Shi about her plan.

"Well, when the time comes, let Ge's family specialize in studying cotton, and then we will have an explanation to shut everyone up." Xie Shi said after thinking for a moment.

"So good."

The two walked along the path to Shiyueju, passing by Jiangli's flower bushes, and thanked Shi, "I worked so hard to grow more than a dozen plants, but only this one is left overnight."

As he spoke, Xie Shi bent down, picked the only remaining flower, and put it on Li Yuening's head.

Xie Shi was talking about the night when the two men disguised themselves as a male and female evil spirit and robbed merchants in Jinling City, and left Jiang Li at the crime scene.

"How did you come up with the idea of ​​using Jiang Li as the symbol of the male and female evil spirits?" Li Yuening asked.

"I've seen picture books. Whether it's a mysterious hero or a thief, they all have their own special mark. In the future, anyone who sees this mark will know who made it."

Xie Shi said mysteriously: "From now on, wherever there are male and female demons, use Jiang Li as the sign. Do you think it's mysterious?"

Li Yuening saw that he looked like a child begging for praise, and followed Xie Shi's lead and said, "Very thoughtful. This will be even more mysterious after being blessed by your spiritual power for half a month."

What Li Yuening said was right. A day had passed since the houses in Jinling City were robbed, and the government office received reports of the crimes at the same time, along with Jiang Li, who was at the scene of the crime.

The county magistrate looked at the table full of Jiang Li's food, and his head felt like it was about to explode. He felt annoyed.

He rubbed his temple and turned his gaze to Xue Liangcen, the silent chief clerk, hoping to get some useful advice from him: "What does Chief Clerk Xue think about this matter?"

Xue Liangcen stared at the generals with a serious expression, as if he wanted to find some clues from them, but in the end he shook his head and said, "Sir, in my opinion, these generals were probably not killed by ordinary people, but by people from the Jianghu."

The county magistrate frowned slightly. He had certainly thought of this possibility, but he didn't know how to deal with it.

After all, there has always been a delicate relationship between the underworld and the court, and they have kept to themselves.

It is really puzzling that some people now dare to openly challenge the authority of the government.

Xue Liangcen continued, "Sir, this matter needs to be handled with caution. If it is not handled properly, it is likely to cause conflicts between the Jianghu and the court."

The county magistrate nodded in agreement. "First, keep these Jiangli in safekeeping, and then send someone to secretly investigate the matter. As for the responses from each family, you will be responsible for it, Xue Zhubo."

The county magistrate was well aware of the complex relationship between the underworld and the court. If it was not handled properly, it would easily lead to greater trouble.

Xue Liangcen cursed inwardly: Old fox!
