Chapter 121 The future is under your control

Chapter 121 The future is under your control

As soon as I stepped in, I heard the people inside talking about something. Before I could understand, the man in his early twenties in front of the counter stood up and greeted them. Then he continued the discussion just now.

"In your opinion, did Inspector Li fall ill and die suddenly? Was he killed by someone?"

"I didn't say that, I just felt something was wrong. You said that the government gave the Li family [-] yuan in funeral expenses in two days. When have you ever seen the government so happy? When things go wrong, there must be demons. There must be something going on here.”

"It must be that Governor Li is an official and close to the people, and his superiors saw it, so he made a statement."

"That's not impossible... But, what's wrong with Huo Xiaotou? After taking office as the governor, he was a dog's leg. He clings to him from morning to night and is closer than his own father. Why did I see him come back at this hour just now?" Home?"

"Haven't you heard? I bought a big house, and my face is full of joy. I've been busy moving these two days. It's really chilling. At the beginning, Governor Li treated him well, but now that he's gone, he's going to move out after Sanqi. Yes, just a few days away."

The man said for a while, and then he suddenly came to his senses and said: "Hey, don't talk about it, Li Lishi's side is only the military officer who is still in Jinzhou Prefecture, and the others are said to have been transferred away."

Yan Xiaowan listened to their chat and looked at Li Luyao. As if he didn't hear it, he handed over the written paper and the copper plate and led them out the door.

"How about I accompany you to visit Xiaotou Huo?"

Hearing the sound, Li Luyao looked at her for a long time, then turned to look in front of her eyes and said, "I'll just go there later at night."

"Are you looking down on me? Although I say that my martial arts are a little lower than yours, I'm afraid you're not as good as me when you go to the government to find out the truth and act in a cliché. Besides, you exposed your identity today to help me get ahead, so I will pay you back." Favor."

Although Li Luyao knew nothing about Yan Xiaowan, he knew everything about Su Fufu's situation.

After all, who is the prostitute of the Su family married?Even her love-hate entanglement with Zhao Chengyan was reported.He knew that she was the prince's concubine, but he couldn't figure out why she was both Su Fufu and Yan Xiaowan.

But if she didn't tell him, he wouldn't take the initiative to ask.

All when you don't know anything.

He looked at her full of confidence, nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll bring you one."

Turning around, they went to the inn, settled down with Yan Xiaowan and the others, and he went back to Li's residence first.

He then confessed to his mother, Mrs. Lu, when asked by outsiders, he would say that he is fooling around now.After speaking, he changed his clothes, took some belongings, and went back to the inn.

"This is the property I have earned by myself over the past few years, and it will be under your control in the future."

After entering the room, Li Luyao, the eldest son of the Li family, wearing a silver-white dark-pattern robe and a blue cloak, put the money box with a key on it in front of her eyes.

"Why do you want me to take care of your money? Is there anyone else who wants to take care of your family's money?"

"Don't you girls like to manage money?"

"That doesn't include me."

As she said that, Yan Xiaowan, who was very curious, still took the key and opened the heavy money box. Inside was a layer of gold collar, more than a dozen hanging coins, and a stack of certificates from the cash cabinet.She pawed and pawed and then stopped, looked at Li Luyao with puzzled eyes and said, "You are the same age as me, yet you have earned [-] guan? Did you use your father's position to do something bad?"

Li Luyao looked at the corners of his lips proudly, "I started my home with the pocket money my mother gave me. How about it? I, Li Luyao, want good looks, money and wealth, and good cooking skills. Like this There are few men in the world, right?"

After finishing speaking, he put his hands behind his back and said solemnly: "I'll go to Huo's house to talk to him first, if you are hungry, you can have dinner first, don't wait for me."

Yan Xiaowan let out an "O" before he turned around and went out the door.

……

"Mr. Li, wait here. The master is in the study. I'll invite you right away."

Li Luyao waved ten fingers and was invited to the main hall.After serving the tea, the servant went out to continue cleaning the house with other servants.

He frowned and stood up, wandered into the yard, looked at the people who were busy moving, grabbed one and asked, "Where is the study in the mansion, I'll go find the master."

The boy who was moving things was sweating profusely from exhaustion, so he straightened his hands to the southeast and said, "That's the study over there."

He glanced at it, and looked again, and saw the young servant coming to talk to Huo Xiaotou, he immediately walked back to the hall, pretending to drink tea.

As soon as Huo Xiaotou got outside the hall, he shouted: "Lu Yao."

As he spoke, he came forward and looked at him: "A few days ago, there were rumors that you disappeared, but I was so anxious. I thought to myself, if you make another mistake after Mr. Inspector left, what will Madam do? After finishing the work of the new governor these two times, I went to take a look. Fortunately, I am relieved to see that you are fine now."

Huo Xiaotou's oily and pink face was really heavy.

Li Luyao also followed his words and said: "Uncle Huo, you know me, I am not a person who abides by the rules. I didn't do business in the past, and I can't change it now."

Huo Xiaotou said again with a serious expression: "When I see you now, I will still think of Mr. Inspector, good luck tricks people! What a good official, it is a pity, a pity, a pity."

After talking for a while, she looked at him and said, "Really, this time?"

"I'm afraid that Uncle Huo will laugh at me." As he spoke, tears came out of his eyes, and he said, "I used to mess around and make him angry, but now that he's gone, I know he's good. I want to find some Uncle said something, after all, you used to come to my house often as guests, and you always felt that talking to you was like my father was still alive. That's why I came to the door before July [-], which is rude."

He wiped away his tears, and said again: "But... I heard that the others have all been transferred."

Huo Xiaotou lowered his head and nodded, "Yes, they were all transferred away by Shi Chai. You know, your Uncle Huo has a 70-year-old mother and a bunch of children. I have to support the family! ...But I also have to earn my living. Those noble people couldn't do my flattery, so they..."

Li Luyao nodded, then looked outside the hall and said, "But Uncle Huo, are you moving?"

"Oh, yes, yes, move. My wife's family is in the grain business, you know, there have been some small turbulences in the Shu Dynasty in the past two years, and the recent incident with the King of East Chu, the common people's hearts have just lifted up, and they all I came to grab food, and my wife’s family made a small profit. Master Taishan saw that my house was getting old, so he asked me to sell it, subsidize us and exchange it for a bigger one.”

"That's a good thing. Congratulations, Uncle Huo. It's not convenient for me to pass this filial piety. Where do you move? I'll send someone to give you a congratulatory gift."

"no, I'm fine……"

After the two talked politely for a while, Li Luyao got up and said goodbye.

After he had gone far away, the servant who had just served the two of them followed him into the door and said, "Master, did he notice something? Otherwise, no matter how polite you are, you won't come to the door in filial piety?"

Huo Xiaotou said disapprovingly: "A disciple, now I think he just has no backing, walking around, and when he gets into trouble, he just hopes that someone will help him out."
