The devil relies on the cat

Chapter 84

When Bai Jiujiu bid farewell to Lucui, and went all the way to the Weiliang restaurant at Xizhuang Bridge, the shopkeeper was really angry when faced with her question.

Is the little bastard from the imperial envoy's family playing with himself?Originally, he thought he had invited a young master or young lady from some family, but he didn't expect that the one who came to the banquet was a young servant who was running out of breath.

With his appearance, how can it be suitable for him to dine in such a refined and elegant place!

Immediately, the shopkeeper put away his usual good face.Facing Bai Jiujiu, a money-losing product that cost him a lot of money, he was swept away.

As for Bai Jiujiu, he was tired and hungry, so he thought that Kang Lixuan was impatient with waiting, so he ate and drank and left.So, he didn't dare to ask more questions to the shopkeeper's yelling black face, he patted Braji's belly that had already been deflated, and headed back towards the palace.

Shit, what a coincidence, just in time to see Xia Jinchai throwing Kang Lixuan out of the house.

There was a bang, and the people from both sides started pushing and shoving.

Seeing that the agitated Kang Lixuan was about to be supported by two tall guards of King Chai's mansion and thrown onto the flagstone floor beside her legs, Bai Jiujiu hurriedly ran up a few steps and shouted loudly.

"My lord, Jiujiu has met Lord Chai!"

With a loud and clear voice, the man who was about to enter the mansion with his backhand turned back with a cold face.

"Didn't I hear that you were locked in some small cell by this king, so he would release you on his own initiative?"

Bai Jiujiu was taken aback by the strange words.

"No, the lord remembered it wrong. Jiujiu just saw the lord today. He wasn't in the mansion just now, let alone locked up. Who is talking nonsense?" Bai Jiujiu couldn't understand the word As he spoke one sentence at a time, he wondered if he had accidentally provoked him again.

"Oh? But really?"

"Really, it's absolutely true!" Bai Jiujiu watched him scan himself back and forth with a strange gaze, approaching him step by step, and immediately confirmed it with a swearing appearance.

No, when Bai Jiujiu finished speaking with a very pious attitude, Xia Jinchai didn't stop in front of or beside her.Instead, he went straight to Kang Lixuan who was supported by two guards nearby.

"Did you hear clearly, Mr. Kang?" Xia Jinchai's two cold gazes met Kang Lixuan's guilt-ridden eyes in parallel straight lines.

"Yes, yes, Lixuan was impulsive and wrongly blamed you, Lord Chai! I also hope that the Lord will let me go in large numbers."

Looking at Kang Lixuan's "flexible and stretchable" appearance, Xia Jinchai felt extremely ridiculous.This person is really good at making excuses.If you make a mistake, you will do it wrong, and you must always use the name of "impulse" as a prevarication.If it weren't for his continuous "impulse" in front of him these few times because he cared about the maids he had taken in, I'm afraid I would have followed his impulsiveness.

Xia Jinchai's cool lips curled up slightly in a beautiful arc, and at the same time, his slender, white hand waved towards the two guards.

Immediately, with a "plop", Kang Lixuan whispered "Awah"...

In fact, he is not high from the ground at all.It's just because I wasn't ready to be let go, so I didn't set up the standing posture and the center of gravity for a while, and it became an intimate contact with the ground like a dog eating shit.Bai Jiujiu leaned forward and back together with a smile, while Kang Lixuan was the one complaining!

Fortunately, the little boy at the side, Ah Wen, moved swiftly and hurried over to help him up.Bai Jiujiu stood where she was, hesitating whether to go forward and ask when she could make up for the missed meal.However, looking at Xia Jinchai's cold and stern face, he had to shrink his neck so that it lingered in his throat.

"Gululu..." On the silent street, such a series of inappropriate noises suddenly sounded.

Bai Jiujiu was thinking about the wrong voice, why it felt so far away from her stomach.The boy Ah Wen spoke up.

"Master, it looks like you're hungry. Since Miss Shi has returned to the palace safely, let's find a restaurant to fill our stomachs."

Huh?Kang Lixuan didn't eat anything?Bai Jiujiu was surprised.

Just about to take a few steps to inquire, but his lips raised slightly, and before he could utter a word, two sharp gazes silently cast on her.

Well, it looks like I did something wrong again today.Bai Jiujiu lowered her eyelashes and shut up.

Seeing the disappointed look of his senior sister, Kang Lixuan understood.

"Hey, let's go!" He took the lead and went to the street.

Xia Jinchai entered the mansion, butler Qi and a group of maids, women, guards and servants also returned to their original positions.Bai Jiujiu was left alone looking on both sides, undecided whether to catch up and say a word to his junior brother, or to follow Lu Cui's idea right away?

"Why are you still standing there so stupid? I'm so hungry now, why don't you go to the kitchen and get something to eat!" Lu Bo appeared out of nowhere.It was a loud reminder to Bai Jiujiu.

"Oh!" As soon as Bai Jiujiu heard about eating, she immediately stopped thinking about anything and put everything aside.He took his feet and ran towards the backyard.

While eating voraciously, one eyelessly looked at Lu Bo who was picking his teeth at the door.

Hey, why does Uncle Lu feel more and more like Granny Zhu?

It's just that Granny Zhu was kind to her from beginning to end, while Lu Bo only started to change her opinion of herself after Kang Lixuan handed him the bank note yesterday.

It seems that silver is a good thing!

But, how to get the money?Bai Jiujiu took out a small purse that Lu Cui gave her just now from the armhole, which was full of heavy silver.

Although it looks like a lot now, if I really manage up and down like she said, wouldn't I be upside down soon?After the money is spent, where should I go to find money?Then Lu Cui can't always help herself kindly, can she?
Bai Jiujiu suddenly regretted it, regretted that he was in a hurry to catch up with Kang Lixuan's dinner, and forgot to ask Lu Cui how to earn the money!

It's good now, not only did he not eat delicacies from mountains and seas, but he was completely embarrassed in front of Xia Jinchai.Alas, I am really worried about whether I will have such freedom tomorrow.

Seeing Bai Jiujiu's more and more careless appearance, Lu Bo thought that Bai Jiujiu must have eaten enough.Then she raised her hand to a maid who had been waiting at the door for a long time.

Immediately, the servant girl walked in quickly.He didn't go in, just stood at the door and said: "Bai Jiujiu, the prince has something to call you."

The clear voice was somewhat familiar, and Bai Jiujiu raised her head in doubt from the rice bowl she was picking up.It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, one thing comes to mind immediately.
