Pei Heng did it on purpose.
He kept squeezing the seven inches of the snake tightly, holding it tightly in his hand, and kept squeezing it hard when he handed it to Xu Wanning, making sure that it would not hurt Xu Wanning.
But seeing Xu Wanning's frightened look, Pei Heng still couldn't bear it.
He threw the snake away.
"Scared you? I threw it away." Pei Heng reached out to pat Xu Wanning on the back. Thinking that he had caught the snake just now, he retracted: "It's gone."
Xu Wanning glared at Pei Heng: "Why did you let it go? I didn't even play with it."
Pei Heng: "..."
Women are such fickle creatures.
Xu Wanning went back in a good mood, and got another good news after returning.
Chen Yuan confessed.
He confessed that Cui Yunfeng ordered him to steal a female corpse of similar stature and size to Ji Xiang. In order not to be suspected, Chen Yuan deliberately stole a few more corpses, creating the illusion that he was a corpse thief stealing corpses and tombs.
"He said that Cui Yunfeng asked him to dispose of the body. After it was so rotten that no human appearance could be seen, it was buried outside Yancheng Mountain. Cui Yunfeng also arranged for other people to do what happened next, and he didn't know." Chen Wang lowered his head. , not even daring to look at Xu Wanning.
He really wished he didn't have Chen Yuan as his brother.
When he first went to persuade him, Chen Yuan wanted him to switch sides.
There is no future in being with a woman. If you want to follow, just follow the young master. Like him, he will be popular, drink hot food, marry a wife and have children, and live a good life. Following Xu Wanning and worrying about his mother-in-law all day long will waste all his hard work.
Xu Wanning poured a bowl of tea and drank some tea to wake her up. "I know. Lock him up first, don't let him leak the news."
Chen Wang would naturally do as he was told: "My subordinates know."
On the way back, dawn has torn the cracks of the night apart.
The future is bright.
"Who is Grandma Haitang?"
Pei Heng rode Xue Cong and followed Xu Wanning's vulture. Neither of them galloped, but swayed slowly, admiring the dawn after darkness that they had never experienced before.
Xu Wanning glanced at him sideways: "You didn't find out? Isn't the Governor of Jin Linwei omnipotent?"
Pei Heng: "..." I really haven't found out yet.
Among the eight generations of the Xu family, there really was no such person as Grandma Haitang.
"We are allies. If I have doubts, you should answer them for me, right?" Pei Heng asked shamelessly.
Xu Wanning ignored him: "This has nothing to do with our alliance."
Pei Heng: "Do you have other tasks? What tasks?"
Destroying the Hou Mansion is the first task, but there is also the second task?
"Guess." Xu Wanning refused to answer.
Pei Heng: "Xu Wanning..." He wanted to cry.
That feeling made me want to cry more than knowing that I would never get drunk again.
The sun has come out and the road ahead is bright.
"Pei Heng, let's have a horse riding competition. If you can catch up with me, I'll tell you." Xu Wanning pulled the reins and stopped.
Pei Heng became hopeful: "Xu Wanning, keep your word."
Xu Wanning didn't reply to him. She had already stepped on her horse's belly and ran heroically to greet the rising sun, like a bolt of lightning that split the haze in Pei Heng's heart.
People should always be full of hope for the future.
Pei Heng followed closely, trying to catch up with Xu Wanning.
But it's a pity.
A spiritual vulture is a spiritual vulture, a one-in-a-million BMW. Even if he has superb riding skills, he can't outrun Xu Wanning, who also has superb riding skills and owns a BMW.
At this time, the sun had risen. Xu Wanning stood at the city gate of Qing County, looking back at him with a smile: "I'm sorry, you lost."
Her smile, brilliant in the morning sun, was deeply engraved in Pei Heng's heart.
There was no rest all night, and they had just competed in horse riding. Now that they were not sleepy, they started to sing about the empty city plan. The two of them did not ride horses in the city, but led the horses and walked side by side in the morning market.
The morning market in Qingxian County is very lively.
Various breakfast vendors warmly greet customers.
"Steamed buns, steaming buns, meat buns, sugar buns, vegetable buns..."
"Soy milk, fried dough sticks, guest..."
"Your wontons, your dumplings, please use them slowly."
Xu Wanning stopped.
Pei Heng also stopped: "How about we eat here?"
Xu Wanning nodded.
An old woman in her fifties came over immediately and said, "Two guests, what would you like to order?"
Pei Heng: "What do you want?"
"A portion of dumplings."
The old woman smiled: "Yes. Sir, what do you want?"
"Same." Pei Heng replied.
The old woman looked at Xu Wanning and then at Pei Heng. She placed the dumplings and said, "I have been selling wonton dumplings here for more than thirty years, and I have never seen such a well-matched couple. You two It’s really a boy and girl from heaven descending to earth, what a perfect match! It’s so comfortable to watch.”
Xu Wanning: "We..."
Pei Heng pulled her sleeve and asked the old woman with a smile: "Can mother-in-law give us a discount?"
"Okay, I'll give it to you. A bowl of dumplings costs twelve, and two bowls cost twenty-four. Twenty for two." The old woman lowered her voice: "If you eat well, come back next time." I’ll give you this price. Don’t tell anyone else.”
Making money and being able to see such a beautiful couple makes my wallet bulge and my eyes feel comfortable. It kills two birds with one stone.
"Okay, thank you very much, old lady." Pei Heng smiled.
Xu Wanning: "...You are short of these four dollars?" For a small business, four dollars is a lot.
Pei Heng turned his head, leaned into Xu Wanning's ear, and said in the voice of only two people, "Not only did she make money from us, but she also made us feel better. She charged us two less and counted it as our hard work fee."
It’s quite tiring to watch for people to watch.
He was very close to Xu Wanning, and the hot breath when he spoke was sprayed on Xu Wanning's neck. Xu Wanning moved to the side calmly, "You deserve it. Governor Pei has grown up like this. It's really hard on you."
Pei Heng smiled: "She praised you too."
Xu Wanning rolled her eyes at him, just then the dumplings arrived, and the smell of the dumplings made Xu Wanning let him go temporarily.
The dumplings are really good.
The skin is thin and the meat is rich, cooked just right, the skin is chewy and the meat filling is firm, and it is served with a sprinkle of chili powder and green chopped green onion. Xu Wanning drank so hard that beads of sweat formed on her back.
The two of them put down their chopsticks at the same time, and Xu Wanning was about to get her purse.
Pei Heng stopped her, "If you and I go out to eat, there is no reason for you to pay."
Men pay, as a matter of course.
Xu Wanning silently took her purse back, and finally figured out that Pei Heng really only gave her twenty dollars.
This man...
The old woman accepted the twenty coins with a smile and welcomed the two of them to come back next time. She went to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and was shocked to see that there were still ten taels of silver under the bowl.
That was her reward for saying auspicious words.
The old woman was surprised and happy. She took the money and bowed to Pei Heng from a distance.
Xu Wanning happened to see it, "How much did you give her?" It was definitely not twenty dollars.
Pei Heng looked at her with a smile, his eyebrows curved, "Take a guess."
