If the Water Margin

Chapter 40 The Man Who Gamb

Wang Po

Wang Po sighed that she had lived for most of her life. She usually thought she was used to the wind and waves, but she was still impulsive. When Wu Da handed over the bag of silver, why did I take it? But that's a full fifty taels, fifty taels. This is a number that Wang Po can't refuse. And Wu Da said clearly that if this family says it, there will be gifts behind it, which is only a small part. Developed, I haven't been squatting for so many days, and I have made a fortune.

But the question is, what should I do next?

When Grandma Wang slowly cooled down from the joy of getting the silver, she also felt a little strange. That woman in white is so strange. Originally, I just wanted to use her to cushion my back. Unexpectedly, when talking with Wu Da, this woman actually cooperated and sent a sachet, and the sachet was embroidered with "Wu Lang", which was obviously aimed at Wu Song. Grandma Wang carefully recalled the days when she squatted in Wu. Well, this woman was the first time to see her. She was not a waiter like me.

Grandma Wang's first thought was that since the woman had prepared a sachet, she must have had an idea about Wu Song. Wu Da also agreed. It happened that he told the media from the middle, and the money could be easily obtained. In order not to help, just give the girl some money and ask them to help keep the secret afterwards. But when Grandma Wang used various social relations to investigate the address of the woman in white in Yanggu, she got nothing.

She is not from Yanggu. Grandma Wang can only come to this conclusion.

This girl is so strange that she suddenly appeared in the right place at the right time and suddenly changed into a sachet, which was really like a trick.

But it doesn't matter where this girl is and what she does, and the Wu family is not bad at dowry now. The most urgent thing is to find this girl. You can't let her go beyond herself and contact the martial arts directly. In that case, the commission will be ruined. But where can I find her? Grandma Wang did have a hard time.

After thinking about it for a night, Mrs. Wang decided that since she saw her at the tea stall during the day, she had no choice but to go to the tea stall to try her out now.

So Grandma Wang arrived at the tea stall the next morning. The staff of the tea stall had nothing to do with Grandma Wang. Grandma Wang also knew that it was really annoying that she was consuming a table from morning to night but didn't have much, but there was nothing she could do. This was a need for work. Now she is also rich in her pocket, so Grandma Wang casually took out half a couple of silver to reward the staff, which is also a good working environment for herself.

Grandma Wang chose a table with an open perspective and began to wait for the girl to appear. Her efforts paid off. At noon, the girl appeared in the teahouse again and still sat at the table beside her. Grandma Wang was really angry when she saw it. She quickly got up and walked over and sat opposite the girl.

When the girl saw Grandma Wang, she nodded slightly and did not look surprised, as if she expected Grandma Wang to appear like this.

In fact, Grandma Wang didn't look at the woman carefully yesterday. At that time, the conditions were limited, and she was busy introducing her to Wu Da. If she kept staring at the girl, she would have exposed her feet. Today, sitting on the opposite side and taking a closer look, I felt that this girl was really handsome and more unique than ordinary girls.

"Girl, let me introduce myself. My surname is Wang, and my husband died early, so I won't follow my husband's surname. Just follow everyone and call me Mother Wang." Grandma Wang immediately began to introduce herself.

"Grandma Wang, what are you doing here for me?" The girl looked at Grandma Wang with a smile.

Wang Po felt that this expression had a knowing question, but since she asked so, she had to answer. To tell the truth, I usually do some media pulling work in Yanggu. Recently, I am looking for a daughter-in-law for Wu Song, the head of the county. Yesterday, the girl saw me interview with Wu Song's brother here, and the girl also sent a sachet. Wu Song's brother fell in love with you and said that he would go back to discuss with his brother. Well, I'm entrusted with loyalty, and I don't know where the girl lives, so I've been waiting for the girl here.

When Grandma Wang said these words, she kept looking at the girl with her eyes, but when she finished speaking, she found that the girl did not react. This made Grandma Wang a little anxious. After all, one-sided speech can't continue the conversation. Therefore, she could only answer without hesitation, "Oh, yes, I don't know what the girl is called?" This is the place where Grandma Wang has good conversation skills. As long as the other party is not too hostile, he must make an excuse. As long as he interfaces, the conversation can continue.

That girl doesn't seem to think much about it. My mother-in-law just called me Haisha.

"The girl's family name is Hai?" Grandma Wang asked this to learn more information through this surname, at least there is a clue if she inquires afterwards.

But the girl called Haisha doesn't seem to eat this. Mother-in-law, take my surname Hai."

This sentence is equivalent to telling you that my surname is not Hai, and this is not my real name. Grandma Wang was a little annoyed and made a little girl so much younger than herself play, and she still felt very uncomfortable.

"Na Haisha, what do you think of this marriage?" Grandma Wang understands that it is impossible to indirectly learn something from this girl. In order to avoid humiliation, she should go straight to the point.

"To tell you the truth, in fact, I am determined to get Wu Song, but I, a girl, can't come to propose marriage by myself. Today, I came to this tea stall to look for my mother-in-law." Grandma Wang noticed that when Haisha said this, there was no shyness of other girls, which gave her an indescribable feeling.

However, Grandma Wang's mouth is still reacting instinctively. Haha, of course my mother-in-law knows that the girl's family is embarrassed. Your mother-in-law and I specialize in keeping people's media. Don't worry, although the Wu family's attitude is uncertain, my mother-in-law will definitely tell you this door.

In fact, when Wu Da left, he had basically recognized the marriage and patted his chest and said that Wu Song would solve it. However, Grandma Wang still deliberately emphasized her attitude repeatedly, and the degree of "attitude uncertainty" also changed from "in her brother to go back to discuss with her brother" when she first met Haisha to "the attitude of the Wu family". The reason for the change was that Grandma Wang confirmed that Haisha wanted to marry Wu Song. Since Grandma Wang has grasped the attitude of both sides, the degree of "attitude" is also a bargaining chip of her own merit after success in the future. Grandma Wang felt complacent about her conversation skills, and she seemed to hear the sound of large pieces of silver colliding in her pocket.

"Mother-in-law, you may have misunderstood. I'm not embarrassed." When Haisha said this, the expression on his face was very indifferent.

Grandma Wang suddenly didn't react: "Aren't you embarrassed? So you mean you don't have to come to help you propose marriage?"

"If I don't use my mother-in-law, why did I come to the tea stall?" Haisha looked at Grandma Wang with a smile.

This made Grandma Wang a little angry, which was a kind of annoyance that was despised. Grandma Wang criss across the Yang Valley, and even a cruel role like Qi Si has to show off her face, but now she is played back and forth by a little girl, which makes her a little unable to control her emotions.

"If a girl has anything to say, just say it directly. You don't have to beat around with my old lady. I don't understand." Grandma Wang simply began to play tricks, and she also wanted to force the other party's true purpose out.

"I just want my mother-in-law to say that I am your distant niece and a distant niece who lives far away." The sea sand was still that kind of smile, and at the same time, it handed a piece of silver to Grandma Wang.

Wang Po took more than two taels with her hand, which is also a lot of money. But she didn't immediately hold the money in her arms, but put it on the tea table. Miss Hai, I don't understand why you married Wu Song in the name of my niece?

"It's very simple, Grandma Wang. I don't want to show my true identity yet, and I appeared in Yanggu without relatives for no reason. The martial arts will definitely doubt me. But if Grandma Wang comes forward as a guarantee, there will be no problem. Haisha is still this kind of smile.

And this smile made Grandma Wang feel a little shocked.

"What if I don't help you? At worst, I won't earn this money." Grandma Wang pushed the two taels of silver to Haisha. After pushing it, she still felt a little lack of confidence, so she continued to say, "I can also return Wu Da's money. Even if my mother-in-law Wang doesn't protect Wu Song's media, it's dangerous. I won't do anything to tell lies."

After saying that, Grandma Wang's eyes stood up. It's quite a shrew.

The expression on Haisha's face has not changed, and it is still that kind of smile, but Grandma Wang feels more and more that it is too strange that this smile has been hanging on a little girl's face for so long.

"I heard that you have a good relationship with Qi Si. I don't know if you have seen the end of Qi Si." Haisha said indifferently.

After Qi Si's death, Grandma Wang went to have a look. The body was so miserable that Grandma Wang almost fainted. It is said that this is still the appearance of the county magistrate's work after it was sewn up. Grandma Wang lived in Yanggu for decades, and naturally knew that this work was a great figure in his early years. If he still looked like this after he dealt with it, then Qi Si's death was really unimaginable. When Grandma Wang heard Haisha say this, she was speechy for a moment and didn't know what to say. Is Qi Si's death related to this little girl? Then, Grandma Wang suddenly thought that Haisha said this as a threat to her life.

At this moment, Grandma Wang's emotions have finally turned into fear. Although she is a piece of knife meat in Yanggu, she is also afraid of death.

"Grandma Wang, you don't have to be afraid. I just want to marry into the martial arts family. If you do what I say, there will be no danger. In addition, you don't have to hate me. Although I saw Qi Si's death for some reasons, his death has nothing to do with me. When Haisha said this, he looked at the flow of people coming and going on the Purple Stone Street with some resentment.

And Grandma Wang felt the coldness of the dawn in the middle of winter during the day under the strong autumn sun.
