Soft and cute female mage

Chapter 102 Li Sanqi

When Yu Xiaoting dragged Fang Ling to find Wang Yiba, the man was beating up a young man who had just become a con man in a gambling house.

Yu Xiaoting stepped forward to grab Wang Yiba and said, "That's too cruel! Is it comfortable to be a local snake?"

When Wang Yiba saw that it was Yu Xiaoting who was coming, he immediately squeezed out a flower with his face full of flesh.

"Yo! Brother Yu? Come, come, look, our place is full of smog, let's go, have a drink in the private room, catch up with the old days."

Yu Xiaoting stopped Wang Yiba, pointed at the young man curled up on the ground and said:
"How old can I be with you? What's going on? Are you thinking about the food in the prison again?"

"Brother Yu, arrester Yu Da! Why are you still staring at me and won't let me go.

Well, my brothers did do some bad things in the past that oppressed good people.But wasn’t he caught by you later?
I learned my lesson and finally came out. You see, I'm hiding in Nanping, a place where no shit is like a bird. Why are you still chasing me? "

Yu Xiaoting casually picked up the two dice on the table and played with them:
"No matter where you are, as long as you continue to bully good people, I will not spare you."

Wang Yiba immediately put on an extremely aggrieved face and said:
"What kindness is he? I'm teaching him to be honest and trustworthy. You say that you can get cheats out of playing with dice, and going out to work and be a man, wouldn't it be more tricky and abducted? I'm doing harm to the people and running errands for you. "

As he spoke, he patted Yu Xiaoting's shoulder.

Yu Xiaoting reached out and opened him.

"Don't gossiping here, let him go quickly! I'm not here to trouble you, I just want to ask you what's going on with Li Sanqi."

Wang Yiba heaved a sigh of relief.

"Hi! There is something to talk about! Look at you scaring me, I still think that grandson is yours just now! Come, come, please, please!"

Fang Ling had just blown some cold wind along the way, but now he was somewhat awake.

Several people walked all the way to a private room.Although it is called a private room, there are several sets of calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall pretendingly, but the rough style always reveals an irresistible banditry, which matches Wang Yiba's temperament very well .

Wang Yiba forced others to look at the two cups of tea, while he himself took two sips from the teapot, and said:
"Brother Yu, when did you abduct such a beautiful little sister-in-law, hehe... You said you didn't inform me in advance, but here I am, hahaha... a shabby room, a shabby room, little sister-in-law, don't dislike it."

Yu Xiaoting was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and said with a sullen face: "You forgot to put the door on your mouth, right? Don't talk nonsense! This girl is a friend of mine."

"Oh, oh? My friend! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, sister-in-law friend!"

Wang Yiba deliberately teased.

Yu Xiaoting didn't bother to talk to him, and asked bluntly: "I heard that Li Sanqi owed a debt to you, and you took a large amount of cash?"

When Wang Yiba heard this, he jumped up.

"The kid sued you? That kid came to gamble every day a few days ago. He refused to accept the bet and insisted on borrowing money. Although I can eat this well, I am also picky eater. You say he is poor and white." Yes, I find it difficult to recover debts, don't I?"

Yu Xiaoting was too lazy to listen to his nonsense, "Is there such a thing?"

Wang Yiba was just talking cheerfully, but at this moment he said with a little embarrassment: "Didn't you listen to your teaching? Help others! I lent him some money. No, I lent him money, and I borrowed it wrong. gone?"

Yu Xiaoting had a sullen face, "When did he pay it back? How much did he pay back?"

Wang Yiba said doubtfully:
"He... is he really your relative? Hey! They are all from our own family, so why pay me 100 taels. Brother Yu, take it back for me and return it to Xiao Qiye. Tell him to be down-to-earth in the future. The place is not suitable for him. Hahaha..."

Yu Xiaoting said in a perfunctory way: "He is quite self-aware, I thank you on his behalf!"

After leaving the casino, Fang Ling asked, "Are you familiar with that Wang Yiba?"

Yu Xiaoting smiled awkwardly, "Those who eat our bowl of food are familiar with those who are of the highest rank. It makes the girl laugh."

"I think that Wang Yiba is quite interesting. He was so arrogant before, but when he saw you, he immediately behaved like a cat."

Yu Xiaoting was a little helpless, "If you think he is like a cat, you are wrong! Why do you think he wants us to withdraw the 100 taels of silver at the counter outside?

I'll make a bet with you: within a few days, he will get back the 100 taels of silver with interest.

But I have seen many of these routes, so I won't be afraid to go there. "

"I'd like to see how he collects money from officials with interest."

"Don't worry! This money isn't his, and I'm afraid it won't be Li Sanqi's. None of them can get it back."

"Didn't Li Sanqi return this money to Wang Yiba?"

"That's because you don't know Li Sanqi. He is Li Ruixi's distant nephew, and he followed Li Ruixi when he was [-] or [-] years old. But Li Ruixi treated him with no regard for his relative status. Not only did he often beat and scold him, but he also often deducted wages under excuses.

So Li Sanqi has been working in Renchundang for so many years but he hasn't even found a wife yet. Do you think he can have 100 taels of silver to pay off his gambling debt? "

"Oh? So that means the money must have come from something shady?"

Yu Xiaoting smiled, "It's better for girls not to inquire about these things. The more you know, the more you may be in danger. Whether you believe it or not, my words are from the bottom of my heart."

Fang Ling hates this kind of people who leave half of a sentence the most, and make others' appetites in vain, making people feel like a cat scratching their hearts.Can't help saying:
"You said you are good at taking people, but if you encounter the evil spirit that Po Wu said again, I wonder if you will still be good at it?
As the saying goes, every line is like a mountain, and you saw it today. Even if someone was guarding the door, the ghost still scared Wu Po half to death. It's hard to guard against ghosts. "

Yu Xiaoting smiled slightly and said, "Girl, do you want to do business with me?"

Fang Ling also said with a smile: "I dare not do business. It's just that Li Ruixi hurt Su'er too badly. Although I can't help Su'er, if I can help arrest Li Ruixi, it can be regarded as doing my part for Su'er.

What's more, you asked me for help, but I didn't take any money, and now it's my appetite, which is not what a gentleman does.Are you just waiting for me to offer to help you deal with that ghost? "

Yu Xiaoting smiled slyly, "The girl is really smart!"

"You don't have to worry about Catcher Yu. Although I don't seem to be such a steady and prudent person, one of the advantages of me is that I grew up on the mountain since I was a child. I have few friends and I don't know how to gossip with others."

Yu Xiaoting bowed deeply, "The girl is not only smart, straightforward, but also understanding."

Fang Ling was a little guilty of accepting this gift, and hurriedly said, "Catcher Yu, don't praise me anymore. I can't help boasting since I was a child, and I tend to make mistakes when I'm in a hurry. These are really words from the heart."

"Since the girl is so straightforward, it doesn't hurt to tell you.

Previously, when we investigated Li Ruixi, we found that 200 taels of silver were missing from his shop on the night of the [-]th.Based on this, we speculate that Li Ruixi has come back, perhaps temporarily hiding with money because of Su Er.

Because the person on duty that night was Li Sanqi, but according to him, it was his mother's birthday that day, so he went home and drank a few more drinks and did not stay in the shop.

But now it seems that he may have told a lie. "

Fang Ling suddenly remembered something.

"It's really not right! I remember that on the [-]th day, it was very late. Cuiyun's sister-in-law and I took Fusheng to Renchuntang to scold the street. Li Sanqi was in the store at the time. It’s impossible to eat until midnight, right?”

Yu Xiaoting said with a smile: "The girl brought someone to scold the street that night? You missed a good show."

Fang Ling blushed, waved his hands again and again, and said in embarrassment: "The talent is dull, and the scolding is really not as good as others, so don't watch it, don't watch it!"

Li Sanqi was still asleep when he was lifted up.Suddenly seeing several officials standing in front of him, he was so frightened that he dozed off and immediately woke up halfway.

Yu Xiaoting shouted with a stern face: "Stealing money, deceiving officials, and obstructing the handling of cases. Do you know that each of these is enough to send you to sleep in prison for several years?"

Li Sanqi said anxiously: "I didn't, what are you talking about? Don't talk nonsense just because you are wearing an official uniform!"

Yu Xiaoting threw the 100 taels of silver in front of Li Sanqi.

"You still want to be tough? Is this the money you want to give back to Wang Yiba?"

Li Sanqi felt a little guilty, "Yes... so what? What happened to me returning the money to him? He extorted my money, and you left him alone, but you took care of me instead?"

"What a sharp mouth! I'm here to ask you now, where did you get so much money to be blackmailed?"

"Isn't it okay that I have saved all these years?"

"You entered the Renchun Hall at the age of 14. This year has been twelve years, and now you have four qian per month. I don't care about the one and two qian a month when you first arrived. Even if you have been four qian per month for the past 12 years, you don't It’s only 57 taels if you don’t eat or drink.”

Yu Xiaoting looked at Li Sanqi and paused, then suddenly shouted:
"Are you still recruiting?"

"I, I gamble..."

"There is only one gambling shop in the town, which opened two years ago. I just came from there. You have gambled a lot in the past two years, but you have lost more than you won. Shall I call Wang Yiba to ask you?" Revenue for the past two years?

On the night of the nineteenth, you didn't go home at all.

Although your mother listened to your words and asked you to eat at home.But when it comes to when you arrive home and when you leave home, the elderly are older and may not remember the words they have learned reliably.

You should also pity your elderly mother. "

Li Sanqi fell to the ground dejectedly and cried:

"The money... I did steal it. But that's not my fault. He, Li Ruixi, has treated me like a human being for so many years. He often deducts my wages. What I stole is my own hard-earned money."

"How can you have Li Ruixi's key?"

"On weekdays, there are some medicinal materials in the pharmacy that can't be put away, so I put them in Li Ruixi's home. Because I often go to his house to pick up the goods, so Li Ruixi sometimes gives me the keys to the house.

On the nineteenth day, I went to his house to pick up the goods, and found a brass key in a drawer in the back room, which belonged to the accountant, so I took it secretly.That night, while on duty, he stole the silver.

I was also forced.I owed that Wang Yiba five taels of silver, who would have thought that after two months, he would roll to 100 taels.Where do I have so much money to pay him back?
But if I don't pay back the money, he will chop off one of my hands.I'm also at a loss.I still have 90 taels of silver here, I dare not touch it, I will return it all, if it is not enough, I will make it up..."

Now the money has been recovered, but Li Ruixi has completely disappeared.Thanks to Li Sanqi, all the previous inferences about Li Ruixi have to start again.
