Chapter 97 The Merchant Comes to the Village

Chapter 97 The salesman comes to the village

Ah Li nodded with his cheeks bulging.

He said vaguely: "I like it!"

"How about I give you this courtyard?"

As soon as these words came out, A Li was choked.

"cough……"

Lu Qingling quickly poured her a glass of water.

Ah Li took it and drank it, "gu dong gu dong", and felt much better.

"Brother Ling, why did you give me the yard? I have a place to live. Besides, if you gave me the yard, where will you live?"

Lu Qingling looked at Ah Li and smiled lightly, "If we leave here one day, can this house be given to you?"

"Then you are still coming back?"

Ah Li thought they had gone out for a few months and returned just like last time, so she was a little confused as to why he said this.

"Yes, we will come back, but if we leave this yard in the future, how about we leave it to your care?"

Ah Li smiled and nodded, "Okay, brother Ling, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of your house and make sure it won't be a mess when you come back."

Lu Qingling looked at A Li's sweet and lovely smile. He didn't show it on his face, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"Li Li, thank you. I'm glad to meet you."

"I'm also very happy to meet you, Brother Ling, Brother Lu Yun, and Master..."

Ah Li clasped her hands and counted the person she liked.

Because of the incident with the man in black, Lu Qingling and the others had indeed made plans to leave here, but they wanted to wait and see if the other party really discovered them.

At this time, all the killers of Shenying Pavilion left the mountains and arrived at their stronghold in the city.

Those people killed by the Rourou family were all minions, and the real killer only suffered some minor injuries.

The leader sent a letter to Fei Ge, their head office, explaining the situation here.

After all, so many people have been lost, and they have to ask their employer for compensation.

Now they don't have much manpower and can only plan again.

On this day, two sellers came to Taohua Village. One of them carried a load of silk flowers, silk flowers, headbands, and hairpins that were fashionable in the city.

Another seller's load contained some food for children to play with.

As soon as they entered the village, they shouted loudly.

“What a beautiful hair flower~ Come and see and buy it~”

The children and women in the village greeted each other and went to the entrance of the village.

Usually such a salesman would stay in a village for an hour before leaving.

The village chief's wife went to Ah Li's house to visit and told them that the salesman had come to the village.

Zhang and Yan also wanted to see if there was anything to buy.

How could Mrs. Pei not know what they were thinking, and said to Mrs. Yan: "I'm looking at Xiao Mengyao, you go for a walk."

Mrs. Zhang and Ms. Yan nodded happily, packed up and went out.

I happened to meet Ah Li at the door who was about to go home.

"Eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, where are you going?"

"A salesman has come to the village. Let's go see if there is anything we want to buy. Lili, do you want to come with him?"

When Ah Li heard this, he nodded happily, "Okay! I'll go too."

She held the hands of Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Yan in the middle and skipped towards the entrance of the village.

When we arrived at the entrance of the village, several women and children were already surrounded by the seller's load.

"Sister-in-law, there are so many people in your village. I've almost run out of these things."

"That's right, the population of our village is quite large."

"Hey, eldest sister, have any new people moved to our village recently?"

The woman who was talking to the salesman said while picking out hairpins: "There haven't been any in the past one or two years, but there were some more than two years ago. Why do you ask?"

"I have a rich relative who wants to build a house in a village to live in. He asked me to inquire about it. I think your village is quite good, so I want to know more about it."

"Then you are asking. The family that came here two years ago is also rich. They built a beautiful yard on the other side of the river."

"It seems like this place is quite suitable. By the way, sister-in-law, what's the family name?"

"It seems their surname is Lu! They seem to be a young father and son. They are far away from the village, but it is rare to see them out and about."

After hearing this, the two salesmen looked at each other.

At this time, the woman picking things saw Ah Li and others coming over.

He pursed his lips and said to them: "Well, these people are the neighbors of the family I mentioned."

The salesman then focused his attention on the three of them.

"Little girl, two sisters-in-law, come and choose if you like it. There are flower hairpins, handkerchiefs, children's food and things to play with."

Mrs. Zhang and Ms. Yan went over and picked out handkerchiefs.

Ah Li was not interested in the food in the load. She saw that the toys were all rattles and some wooden birds, and she lost interest.

She just stood aside and waited.

One of the salesmen approached Ah Li and handed her a piece of candy.

"Little girl, uncle treats you to some sweets."

Ah Li raised his head and looked at him. This routine seemed familiar.

So he shook his head and said, "Thank you, uncle, I don't like sweets."

"Hey, Ah Li, your family is so rich that you don't even like candy."

The woman next to her curled her lips.

When Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Yan heard what she said, they couldn't help but choked with her.

"What does having money or not have to do with eating sweets? My carp doesn't like eating it, doesn't it?"

The woman shut up, bought a hairpin and left.

Seeing this, the salesman quickly said: "Don't be angry, sisters-in-law. This is all my fault. I didn't know that the little girl doesn't like sweets. So, to express my apology, I will give each of you a handkerchief!"

"No, no, this has nothing to do with you. We can't ask for the handkerchief in vain."

"Yeah, we can't ask for anything from you. Forget it, let's buy two pieces each!"

The salesman added: "I will give it to you if I tell you."

He picked up the handkerchief they had seen before and handed it to Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Yan.

Then he told them again what he had talked about with the women before.

Mrs. Zhang nodded and said, "Our village is quite good."

"I heard that there were new families moving to your village in the past two years. Can I go with you to see what the houses they live in are like? Then I can go back and describe them to my relatives."

Just as Mrs. Zhang was about to say something, A Li came up and took her and Mrs. Yan's hands.

"Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, I'm hungry."

"Then let's go back and cook quickly!"

"Brother, there's nothing to see in that house. If you want to know more, you might as well go to the village chief. My mother-in-law will be unhappy if we take people back rashly."

When Ah Li grabbed their hands, he squeezed them twice, and they both noticed.

They didn't ask for the handkerchiefs given by the salesman, so they put down the coins and took Ah Li home.

On the way back, Yan asked: "Li Li, what did you want to say to us just now?"

"That person just now has been asking about Brother Lu and his family. I don't think he is a good person."
