Chapter 614 Qiu Xian
Butler Wei's small study room is as simple as ever, with bookshelves and shelves, a few potted plants, a tea table, four futons, a stove for boiling water, and a kettle sitting on the stove.
Butler Wei sat at the tea table and turned on the stove. The stove was on fire soon. The kettle was not very big, so the water boiled quickly. Butler Wei started making tea, while Liu Dahe didn't say a word. Watching Butler Wei busy at work, it's not that he doesn't want to talk, he just feels that it's not the right time for him to talk. He always has a feeling that he shouldn't talk at this time.
"Drink tea, warm your stomach first, and then tell me slowly if you have anything to say."
Butler Wei made a pot of tea with boiling water, poured the tea into a bamboo hat teacup, pushed the teacup to Liu Dahe, and said with a smile, letting Liu Dahe drink the tea first.
"Thank you, uncle."
Liu Dahe seemed a little reserved. After thanking Butler Wei with a smile, he picked up the tea cup with both hands and carefully sucked the tea soup in the cup.
"Dahe, how is your uncle's health lately?"
When Butler Wei saw that Liu Dahe had almost finished drinking the tea in his tea cup, he asked Liu Dahe with a kind face. He also wanted to test and see what the Liu family's attitude towards the uncle and nephew was.
"It's okay, but it's quite sad."
Liu Dahe put down the tea cup with a trace of sadness on his face, obviously caused by the bitterness of the tea leaves.
"Oh, what's the matter?"
When Butler Wei heard that Mayor Liu was very worried, he immediately became interested and planned to continue talking to Liu Dahe.
"Isn't it a matter of the Huang family? Uncle, my uncle asked me to come over this time to invite you. By the way, my uncle said that if the head of your family has time, it would be best if we could come together."
Liu Dahe felt something was wrong as soon as he started talking. He was young and inexperienced, and he was not stupid. He naturally noticed that Butler Wei was trying to find out more about the situation, so he still brought the topic to asking Butler Wei to go to his uncle's place.
"What's the reason for this?"
Butler Wei was not surprised when he heard that Liu Dahe didn't talk about the topic he brought up. After all, such a big man has his own opinions. But when he heard that Mayor Liu invited him to meet, Butler Wei frowned. It was not beyond his expectation. As soon as Liu Dahe arrived at Butler Wei, he knew that it was Mayor Liu who had something to do. The matter of going to see Mayor Liu did not surprise Butler Wei. What surprised him was Liu Dahe's words and attitude. Obviously Liu Dahe spoke casually and was not someone who would talk about you. However, when he asked him to see Township Chief Liu, he used honorifics to address you, and he also wanted the head of the Yue family to go too. The matter is intriguing. This is obviously not Liu Dahe's speaking habit. It was something that Mayor Liu told him, or it was influenced by Mayor Liu. Then this matter is very important to Mayor Liu, so Butler Wei thought. Then he asked Liu Dahe tentatively to see why Mayor Liu asked them to go there.
"I'm not sure about this, but the way my uncle talks, it seems like this is quite serious."
Liu Dahe really didn't know, but he was afraid that Butler Wei wouldn't be able to get through, so he kept a straight face when he spoke, trying to make him serious, and made the matter more serious, acting like I was I don't know what it is, but it seems serious.
"Well, okay, I'll just follow you."
Butler Wei saw Liu Dahe's pretense and nodded. He thought to himself, no matter what it was, he should go and see it first before talking about it. After all, he was the official official of Jiaohe, so it was hard to refute his face.
"Hey, let's leave right away."
As soon as Liu Dahe heard that Butler Wei had agreed, he stood up and went to his uncle's place with Butler Wei.
"There's no rush. It won't be a problem after you finish the tea. There won't be any delay."
Butler Wei looked at Liu Dahe who stood up anxiously. Butler Wei didn't know whether his uncle was in a hurry. Looking at Liu Dahe, he felt that Liu Dahe was quite anxious. Butler Wei waved his hand to him, signaling not to waste the good tea. After drinking it It's not too late to go after tea.
Butler Wei and Liu Dahe finished drinking tea, and then they ran towards the home of Township Chief Liu. There were not many people on the road, and it was an eventful autumn in Jiaohe, so the idle people who came out to bask in the sun were all honest. Originally, The ladies who spread the gossip are also staying at home. Except for those who have a particularly good relationship, or have a small family size, and have not been affected by what happened last night, the others are staying at home honestly, so there are almost no people on the street. No one can be seen.
In Geron's camp, a group of people quickly left the camp. It looked like there were about thirty people in this group, and they were all dressed neatly and smartly. It was obvious that they were elite troops, and their leader It was Bohe who was the commander of Gelong's bodyguard. This was Bohe's elite team who had received Gelong's order to find someone.
About half an hour later, another group of cavalry quickly left the camp. This group looked like only a dozen people. It was an ordinary horse exploration team, but the leading pair of cavalry were carrying a box on their backs. There is also a red feather seal. This team is sent by Gron to deliver a message to Ronduotai. This red feather represents the urgency of the matter. Three red feathers represent the most anxious level.
Butler Wei followed Liu Dahe out of the house, and the two got on the carriage of the Yue family. A servant of the Yue family drove the carriage and sent Butler Wei and Liu Dahe to the head of Liu Township.
"Pah, pah."
Butler Wei followed Liu Dahe to the door of Township Chief Liu's house. Liu Dahe went up to knock on the door. After knocking three times, he heard Chief Liu's voice coming from the yard.
"Come in, the door is unlocked."
After Liu Dahe left, Township Chief Liu couldn't sit still. Once he decided to find help from the Yue family, it meant that he wanted to break with the old witch and deal with the old witch. His main purpose was to use the Yue family to deal with the old witch, but his body There were still Japs left behind by the old witch, which made him uneasy. All kinds of bad consequences flashed through his mind. Why did the Japs attack him after the old witch discovered it, causing him to suffer from intestinal rupture? Or his head suddenly exploded, or he fell asleep as soon as he fell asleep. In short, these are bad things. He couldn't sit still, so he naturally fell to the ground and kept walking. Didn't he just walk to the yard? .
He didn't know how long he had been gone. Anyway, this time was like a year to him. In addition, all kinds of random thoughts were echoing in his mind. He really felt that he couldn't hold it anymore. He planned to go directly to the Yue family. Forget it, it was at this time that he heard the sound of a carriage on the road, and then the carriage stopped outside his door, and there was a knock on the door. If it had been in the past, Mayor Liu must have let the knock on the door ring six times. He just opened his mouth, but today he waited for three knocks on the door before speaking. He also pretended to be calm and stood in the yard. Except for the clenched fists of his hands behind his back, you really couldn't tell. There's something strange about him.
