Early the next morning, after breakfast, Zhao Da had hitched up the carriage. Seeing that Li Qiu Sui was about to go out, Mrs. Liu caught up and asked, "Where are you going?"
Why are you still hitching up the carriage?
Li Qiusui played her off, "I told my dad that I would go to the county town and buy some things. I also have some seeds of some herbs. I'll try to see if they can be planted in the mountains here."
Mrs. Liu was wearing clothes from the field and said, "If you hadn't told me earlier, I would have gone with you. I wanted to go to the county town to buy some cloth and buy you new clothes in a while."
With extra money in hand, Ms. Liu's eyesight has also become higher. There are two shops selling cloth in the town, and she doesn't like the colors.
Li Qiusui blinked and said deliberately: "How about I wait for you to come with me and you go change your clothes?"
Mrs. Liu didn't notice at all that her little girl was unwilling to go with her, so she waved her hand quickly, "Don't delay, I'm busy here, and I won't have time to go to the county town with you for a while. You go and visit the clothing store. There are suitable clothes." , if it’s new, just cut some and bring them back.”
I just said this because she was busy.
Li Qiusui didn't want to cause trouble, so he nodded hurriedly, "I understand."
The carriages have all left, and Mrs. Liu can still be heard shouting from behind, "Don't buy blindly! Just enough clothes for one person!"
Li Qiu Sui wiped his sweat and stuck his head out to agree.
Dealing with her mother is much more tiring than fighting!
The same thing happened to her father last night, which was different from the way she used to deal with Mrs. Liu. Li Qiu Sui said that he would go to Wang Mao's house to see if he could find out some details or find someone to speak to Li Si Zhu. Li San Zhu said that he would go with him. Li Qiu Sui felt that her father was in the way and was unwilling, so she couldn't say anything. To be honest, I just said that I would visit the women at home first.
It would be inconvenient for Li Sanzhu to follow him again, so he asked her mother Liu to follow her. Li Qiu Sui excused herself as being busy at home. This time she mainly wanted to buy jewelry with Wang Mao's girl, and asked others to help her. Naturally, she wanted the money. When he left, her mother followed her, fearing that the little girl would be embarrassed to accept her.
After all, Li Sanzhu's thoughts were finally dispelled.
Finally, he gave her a thousand taels of silver notes, indicating that she could bribe people to testify for Li Sizhu when the time was right.
Li Qiu Sui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. If Li Sanzhu hadn't been busy today, he would have come with him.
When he arrived at the county town, Li Qiusui first went to a clothing store and changed into men's clothes.
She changed into men's clothes not because she was afraid that people would know who she was. It was just for convenience to hide her identity as a woman. There are also brothers in her family who wear small clothes. They are afraid of arousing Liu's suspicion, which makes it difficult for them to go out.
Zhao Da drove here specially today. Li Qiu Sui came out of the clothing store dressed in men's clothing. He didn't even ask a question, and even suggested that Li Qiu Sui buy a fan to hold.
"I see that the smarter-looking young men in the city each have a folding fan. Do you think we should make one too?"
Li Qiusui took a quick look at Zhao Da's reminder.
It really is! As long as the clothes have no patches and look a bit like a scholar, they are really in trouble. Why didn't she think of it? There are also three brothers in the family. They are considered to be educated people. Why can't they learn to be arty?
After Li Qiusui finished slandering his three brothers, a passing vendor sold fans and hurriedly signaled to Zhao to stop them.
She just used it to decorate the countertop, and didn't care about the materials or the words and paintings on the fans.
Zhao Da quickly paid the salesman the copper coins, and Li Qiu Sui took the fan in his hand.
With a gentle touch of the fingers of one hand, the fan was opened, and then closed again with a neat flick of the hand. Between the opening and closing, the fan played tricks in Li Qiusui's palm and fingers.
Zhao Da has seen rich young men playing with fans, but few people can be as relaxed and carefree as Li Qiusui, and can do so many tricks, "Have you ever played with it before?"
Playing with a fan and spinning a pen are similar to each other. Li Qiusui looked dazed for a moment, nodded noncommittally, and said: "The facade has been restored, we should go do some serious things."
"Sister, Wang Mao's house is in the alley in front. Should we go to his house first?"
Zhao Da here in the county is very familiar with it. He had already found out the address that Wang Mao mentioned yesterday when Li Qiu Sui entered the garment shop.
Li Qiu Sui shook his fan and looked up at the sky, "After such a long delay, it's time to have lunch in the restaurant. At this time... Wang Mao should still be at home. Let's go find him and let him take us to the casino. Yes. Now, are you familiar with the casino area? Can you find a place? We'd better go around first."
Zhao Da nodded, "Young Master, please feel free to follow me."
When we walked around the casino, there were not many people in the casino at this time. The two gatekeepers looked like Lian Jiazi, who were better than those who went to Lijiacun yesterday.
Li Qiusui didn't intend to fight with others as soon as he got started, so it was very necessary to visit Wang Mao's house.
When we arrived at Wang Mao's house, the door was opened by the housekeeper's mother-in-law.
Sure enough, Wang Mao was still at home. Places like casinos are usually crowded with people in the second half of the day. Wang Mao was in charge after all, so there was no need for him to stay there all day.
Wang Maosui didn't recognize Li Qiu Sui at first, but as soon as Li Qiu Sui called him Uncle Wang, he knew who it was. He was a little surprised, and thought that it was her elders who came to the door. Seeing Li Qiu Sui dressed as a man, it was hard to introduce him to his daughter.
Li Qiusui didn't come out to visit at all. She was in her teens, and her age was the same for both sexes. She also deliberately lowered her voice when speaking. People who didn't know her could really treat her like a brat.
Seeing that Wang Mao's wife had left, Li Qiusui directly explained the purpose of his visit, "Uncle Wang left yesterday, but I don't know, something big happened in our family. Our clan was almost kicked out of the clan by the clan leader. It's not... we're not the elders in the family. I really can’t leave, and I’m impatient. No matter what, I shouldn’t come to visit. Don’t worry, we are just looking for someone to prove my uncle’s innocence. Our family will not let you work in vain. "
After saying that, he threw the thousand taels of silver notes directly on the table.
Wang Mao shouted to Li Qiusui to "put it away, put it away", but in his heart he was thinking about how to get more money in his pocket?
These stewards actually get a commission in the casino, but who would be dissatisfied with having too much money.
Yesterday he went to Lijiacun and saw Li Sanzhu's generosity, and he became interested. Because Li Sanzhu's family had too many people, there was no room for him to show off on the spot, so he left such a specious remark before leaving.
I was still searching for this last night, but today it was delivered to my door automatically.
Wang Mao rubbed his chin and said: "Niece of the Li family, please call me uncle. We are no longer outsiders. Let me tell you the truth, this matter is difficult to handle!"
Li Qiu Sui calmly took out one hundred taels and put it on the table of Wang Maosui's house. He sighed and said, "Oh! It was only because he knew that things were difficult to handle that he approached Uncle Wang. We don't know a total of two people in this county, and we don't know anyone." Do you know who to go to? Just tell me what to do about this matter. If it doesn’t work, you can take me to the casino and I will try my luck. The remaining thousand taels of silver will be given to the managers of the casino. Let’s have a drink and a feast.”
Li Qiusui's words made Wang Mao take a deep breath. No matter how much money he spent, he couldn't help but make this wasteful thing.
Wang Mao's heart was bleeding. He had already found out that the family was not short of money, but he never expected that a little girl in her teens could be so resourceful.
It's okay to let her go to the casino to hit the wall first. Those people are not as easy to talk to as she is. The little girl is being embarrassed. If she steps forward, how much money can solve the problem, shouldn't she just let her cry?
