Chapter 221: Busy supporting the family in the foreign land
He Yongqing's eyes flickered, and the corners of her mouth curled up in a playful arc.
She shook the light red wine at the bottom of the goblet and said with her red lips:
"I just made a suggestion, but old man Cheng Juxian was so interested that he called someone to do it himself. It will probably be done in the next few days."
She said this, but in her heart she felt that it was a done deal.
After all, the old guy claims to be the elder of the Cheng family. The money he gives to Jinling Cheng family every year is among the highest among those who want to curry favor with the Cheng family.
There should be some privilege to use the power of the Party Affairs Investigation Office to deal with an antique dealer.
What's more, the antique dealer got so much, including two whole streets of properties and tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, all of which were tempting.
What she valued most was that this man had a large amount of sulfa drugs.
As long as her plan succeeds and these properties are donated to the empire, so many imperial soldiers will be well fed and clothed.
By the time. . .
"Haruko, it's getting late. I have to go back first." Li Xiaoya felt very uncomfortable every time she got along with this person.
Haruko seemed to see through her little thoughts. She giggled, slightly raised her feet, and threw her shoes off on the expensive carpet.
She rubbed her feet, which were wearing glass stockings, gently on Li Xiaoya's smooth calves.
"Masako, your husband is handsome, rich and has a high status. Unlike me, I have to take care of an old man who breathes hard every three steps. I always feel that the night is long and I need many people to accompany me to get through it..."
When she finished speaking, her voice was full of sorrow, and if you listened carefully, it sounded a bit seductive.
Li Xiaoya's body was stiff, and it was obvious that some bad memories came to her mind.
Her body was tense and she could only lower her head and bite her lips. After a long while, she said weakly:
"But he is a member of the Cheng family after all. Because of this, Miss Yukiko is very polite to you."
He Yongqing sneered, "Ya Zi, you are as naive as ever..."
Before she finished her words, she saw Li Xiaoya's beautiful eyes suddenly widen.
Then I felt someone grabbed my hair, dragged me off the sofa to the ground, and then put a pair of shiny leather shoes on me. Pain spread all over my body.
He Yongqing curled up on the ground and cried bitterly. Li Xiaoya was frightened by the scene and dared not move. The people around them also cried out in surprise.
"Bitch, you're hurting me!"
Cheng Juxian, who is in his fifties, was filled with panic as he thought about the phone call he received.
He was able to gain a foothold in Shen City by relying on his complicated relationship with the Cheng family. He gave large sums of money to the two brothers of the Cheng family every year so that he could rely on such a big tree.
Only now did he realize that the power of the Cheng family was not so easy to use.
He also knew that this woman who had been humble and accompanied him since childhood was not a Manchu noble at all, but a Japanese spy.
He was finished. He had worked hard for half his life, and now it was all over. The Cheng family was now a top family, and they could not tolerate such a stain. . .
Thinking of the strict house rules, his eyes became even more ferocious as he looked at the woman lying on the ground.
"Everyone, something unexpected happened at home. I will apologize to you all another day."
Everyone looked at a butler-like man with an unfamiliar face, who bowed to everyone and politely saw them off.
Li Xiaoya left with the crowd. She turned her head and looked at Haruko, who was so glorious a moment ago, now curled up on the ground like a dead dog. She felt a chill in her heart.
It's lucky and perfect that she is with Wu Ziyang, right?
Li Xiaoya fell into confusion again.
----------
At dawn the next day, Wei Miao was awakened by the aroma of food again.
She was so tired after working so hard last night that she didn't feel like moving.
But hunger and fatigue pushed her to move towards the food. Before she even opened her eyes, she reached out and grabbed a pig's trotter and put it into her mouth.
"Wansan pig's trotters." Wei Miao spoke vaguely with his eyes closed.
The bearded man laughed loudly, "You little brat, you know how to eat."
Wei Miao finished the pig's trotter in just a few bites, leaving only clean bones. When he was about to reach out to eat the next one, he suddenly regained his senses.
Wei Miao opened his narrow eyes, stared at the greasy mouth, and smiled at the bearded man:
"When I get out, I'll pay you back double."
The bearded man said generously, "Just eat, there is enough for today."
Wei Miao was not polite after hearing this, although she didn't know why the bearded man was so friendly to her.
But she could feel the awe-inspiring righteousness from the bearded man.
Unlike Lu Pingsheng's natural luck, this one is very strong and direct.
As the old saying goes, being too rigid will lead to breaking. Wei Miao's racing mind did not stop her from eating.
After eating pig's trotters, eat roast chicken, and after eating roast chicken, eat roast duck.
The dishes delivered this morning were all hearty and filling, and very much to her liking.
The bearded man was holding a bowl of porridge beside him and drinking it quite leisurely.
After a while, Brother Cai and his men came in swaggeringly.
Cai's cousin opened the cell door on his own initiative without being told.
Baba became even more excited when he saw Wei Miao and the bearded prisoners enjoying the good life.
These two, one big and one small, actually treated the prison as a hotel and lived there leisurely and comfortably.
"Brother Wei, I went to your house yesterday. Everything is fine at home. I also made an appointment with Brother Wei to go to your house for a full-month celebration when your brother is one month old."
The corners of the bearded man's mouth twitched. Why didn't he know that Bucktoothed Cai could be such a capable person?
Calling someone's father "Big Brother" and calling someone's son "Little Brother", who are you taking advantage of?
Wei Miao couldn’t think so much. When she saw Ali last night, she already knew the result.
Sincerely to Brother Cai:
"Brother Cai, thank you."
Cai Ge had a smile on his pockmarked face and waved to the people behind him. Someone came out carrying two large buckets of hot water and neatly folded clothes.
"Today I brought hot water and bought new clothes and shoes. I washed them and looked respectable when I went out."
Wei Miao looked at the two large buckets of hot water in the cell, and then at the group of people outside the cell who were staring at her.
Is it necessary to take this bath today?
"Well, I'm hungry. I'll eat first and then wash up."
Wei Miao plans to delay it and then take off his clothes?
When Feng Chuanfeng brought his men in, the prison was bustling with activity, and the aroma of food and wine filled the air.
Whether they were prison guards or prisoners, they all had chicken legs and pig’s trotters in their hands, chatting animatedly in groups of three or four.
Especially the little guy, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground at this moment, holding chopsticks in his chubby hands and eating slowly.
Feng Chuanfeng stood where he was, looking at the police cell which was as noisy as a market town, his expression changing from gloomy to bright.
That student died, Zhu Yan became an idiot who could only drool, and the two bastards, one old and one young, from the Cheng family actually wanted to put the blame on him.
This is going to push him into a desperate situation.
Now he has only one way, which is to let the kid beside Lu Pingsheng identify him as a communist on the spot.
Only in this way can everything be turned around.
Thinking of this, a fierce look flashed in his eyes. He drew the pistol from his waist and fired a shot at the ceiling of the prison.
The loud sound of gunfire silenced the dark cell for a moment, and then there were screams of terror.
He fired two more shots into the air above the cell.
Hu Qi's heart was trembling, but he still shouted loudly: "Shut the fuck up, everyone! Be quiet!"
