Chapter 434
The two of them hurried back to the six gates to explain this new doubt to Xia Yue.
Although Bao Shijie may have left the capital, he will definitely attract attention as a man carrying a newborn baby. And it is not easy for him to run into the ravines.
Zhao Shu and his party have almost completed the interrogation.
His group of men were not that tough-minded, and most of them didn't need to be punished. They just gave up after a few scares.
There are a few people who are tough-talking, and there are many tricks in the six doors.
Ye Caitang has never seen Zhao Shu again, and of course she has never asked him. She is just a coworker. While doing her job well, she only needs to help a little bit as much as she can. There is no need to understand the case from beginning to end.
She is not Xia Yue's boss.
Moreover, people like Zhao Shu deserve to be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts.
When Xia Yue saw Ye Caitang, she changed her clothes again.
"Bao Shijie is missing?" Xia Yue was also a little surprised. Their main focus today was on Zhao Shu, but they didn't expect there was another person.
Fortunately, this person has obvious facial features.
Soon, Xie Zhi drew a picture of Bao Shijie's appearance based on the description, and drew several copies and distributed them for everyone to search for.
It was getting dark by now. It was a really busy day today and everyone was a little tired.
Xia Yue looked at the sky: "Everyone has worked hard today. Let's go have a meal and rest early."
Everyone rushed to the kitchen, and Ye Caitang said: "By the way, sir, are you in the study after dinner? I have something to ask you."
"Here." Xia Yue didn't care.
He didn't see Shen Xingyao all afternoon, and he didn't see her when he came out just now. He was a little worried. Where did this girl go? She didn't want to do anything bad.
Shen Xingyao was actually in the kitchen, helping Aunt Lin.
Aunt Lin was a little surprised. She was really that popular recently. Young ladies from outside, who were better dressed than the last and more noble than the last, all loved to do tricks on her.
When everyone arrived, Shen Xingyao was peeling off garlic cloves while chatting with Aunt Lin.
It's not too irritating either.
"Cousin, you are finally done with your work, come and have dinner." Shen Xingyao saw Xia Yue and his entourage coming in, and greeted happily: "Brother Wang, Brother Liu, Brother Xie, Tang Tang..."
The corner of Ye Caitang's mouth twitched, wondering if she was hallucinating.
She and Shen Xingyao, they met twice today and spoke no more than three sentences. What the hell is Tangtang? Mr. Xia, even if your cousin is a super social cow, she can't be so familiar with her, can she?
How should she reply? Stars?
Ye Caitang's face went blank for a moment, but Shen Xingyao had already walked over.
She took Ye Caitang's arm affectionately and said, "Tangtang, let's sit and eat together."
It has to be said that Shen Xingyao did things that many people wanted to do but did not dare to do, such as Chu Shixuan and Huang Quan. Relying on his gender advantage, even if Ye Caitang found it strange, it was difficult to throw her away.
They are all girls. What’s wrong with holding an arm?
"Miss Shen..." Ye Caitang was interrupted before she could say anything.
"My name is Shen Xingyao." Shen Xingyao said: "You can call me Xingyao, Xingxing, or Yaoyao..."
Shen Xingyao rolled her eyes.
"My cousin calls me Yaoyao, you should also call me Yaoyao." Shen Xingyao said: "It seems that you are a little older than me."
Ye Caitang took a deep breath and then looked at Xia Yue.
Do you want to drag your overly enthusiastic cousin away? I'm a bit overwhelmed.
Xia Yue was helpless and wanted to laugh. He probably understood what Shen Xingyao was planning, but it would be bad if he passed it.
Too much is not enough, and excessive enthusiasm can scare people.
So Xia Yue dragged Shen Xingyao away and sat down on a chair.
"Eat, then go back to bed after eating." Xia Yue said coldly: "If I see you jumping up and down again, I will pack you up and send you away tomorrow."
Xia Yue still had a certain prestige in front of her cousin. Shen Xingyao sat down obediently and winked at Ye Caitang, not daring to make any more trouble.
What would you do if your cousin sister-in-law was disturbed?
After eating, everyone went back to rest. Ye Caitang also went back to his room to wash up and change out of his dusty clothes. Then he went to find Xia Yue.
This time Xie Zhi didn't bother to gossip anymore, he would definitely pay back the money.
Xia Yue couldn't guess what Ye Caitang wanted to do with him. He flipped through the book carelessly in the study and didn't see a few words for a long time.
Ye Caitang finally came, carrying a small package. The package fell a little and looked heavy.
Xia Yue put down the book, very curious.
What is this?
"Sir." Ye Caitang was very happy and put the package on the table with a thud.
Once this sound comes out, it's easy to guess.
Xia Yue looked suspiciously at Ye Caitang as he unwrapped the package. Inside was a bunch of white money.
He suddenly felt bad.
"I'm here to pay back the money." Ye Caitang said: "Here are fifty taels of silver. Just click on it and our account will be cleared. The overpayment before will be counted as interest. After all, we have borrowed it for several years. We cannot not get any interest at all."
Give."
Look at how openly she did this, even paying the interest. It doesn’t hurt to spend the money she won from gambling.
Xia Yue was stunned for a moment, really stunned for a moment. He never expected that Ye Caitang was here to pay back the money.
He pulled it with his hand: "Where did you get the money?"
"I won." Ye Caitang knew that huge amounts of property were of unknown origin and explained: "Today when I went to the Golden Gambling House to find Bao Shijie, in order to cover up others' eyes, I took a few bets. Sir, you don't even know how lucky I am. I'm really lucky.
I can't stop the fortune when it comes. I can win whatever I want. I don't know any problems. If I don't know, it won't stop me from winning. I won one hundred and eighty taels, and Brother Xie and I each have half of it."
"..." Xia Yue really didn't know what to say for a moment.
Ye Caitang was still confused: "I finally understand why the business of the gold gambling shop is so good, and I am a very generous person. I won so much, but the guy didn't have any expression at all, and he was very polite. But I guess it's for your sake, sir, so I feel sorry for you.
I'm sorry to say it."
Xia Yue twitched the corner of his mouth: "Haha."
I don't have that much face.
Huang Quan, you old man!
"Sir?" Seeing Xia Yue's stunned look, Ye Caitang waved his hand in front of him, and then suddenly said worriedly: "You don't have to hand over the money."
Although it is my own money, it is during working hours.
"No need." Xia Yue came back to his senses.
Ye Caitang was so happy to win. If he wanted to hand it over, the girl would be so distressed that she would not be able to sleep all night.
"That's good." Ye Caitang breathed a sigh of relief: "Sir, please click and see if the amount is correct?"
"Yes." Xia Yue really accepted the money and then took out the IOU.
Ye Caitang took it, looked at it, and tore it apart.
