Chapter 89 Crossing the River
Gu Qingyu also realized that she had said something wrong and slapped her head: "Sister, I was wrong!"
Ye Qinglin snorted: "Don't talk nonsense in the future."
"I understand." Gu Qingyu replied crisply, still confused in her heart, and touched her chin.
If my eldest sister is of the Chen family, then my brother-in-law cannot be born to Madam Chen. He could be an adopted child of Marquis Wuning and Madam Chen.
Is this possible?
Gu Qingyu thought about it again and felt that it was unlikely. After all, members of the Xie family were somewhat similar.
The problem returned to the starting point. Gu Qingyu stopped thinking about it if she couldn't figure it out.
Seeing Gu Qingyu's gloomy face, Ye Qinglin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and tapped her forehead: "Okay, put away the things in your head and go back quickly."
The two walked together side by side.
Half an hour later, Liu Shitou came running over and said that the boat for crossing the river had been booked and asked everyone to pack up and set off.
Liu Shitou rented two boats and was about to let people get on board when a group of people came hurriedly, pushed Liu Shitou away, and several people got on the boats.
"We want this boat."
As he said this, the man in green who got on the boat threw a silver ingot at Liu Shitou's feet: "This is compensation for you."
The tone was very arrogant and contemptuous.
Then the man in blue looked at the boatman and ordered in a cold voice: "Start the boat!"
The boatman looked at the man in blue, then at Liu Shitou, and hesitated.
The man in blue snorted coldly, obviously angry, and threw two ingots of silver at the boatman's feet: "I'll buy your boat."
The boatman was grinning so hard that he could hardly close his mouth. He nodded quickly: "Okay, sir."
Then, the boatman looked at Liu Shitou embarrassedly and said, "My dear brother, you can see that my boat has been sold. You can take another boat."
After saying this, the boatman rowed away.
Everyone looked unhappy when they saw this scene. Liu Yueshi couldn't stand it and wanted to sprinkle poison powder on the man in green, but was stopped by Xie Xu.
"Let's wait and see." Xie Xu narrowed his eyes and stared at the calm water.
Then they saw the boat reach the other side of the river, and a group of people in black clothes and shorts appeared and surrounded the man in blue. The two sides had a dispute, and then the people in black clothes and shorts tied up the man in blue and others, and threatened to ransom them for two hundred taels of silver.
Seeing this scene, everyone understood what was going on and couldn't help but frowned.
When the rest of the boats saw the man in black shorts appear, they quickly paddled away. After a while, the river became as calm as water, as if what had just happened had never happened.
"Who are those people?" Liu Yueshi was very curious.
"A small gang in Philadelphia, Cangzhou, mainly robs people crossing the river to get money." These words were said by Dongfang Yu.
Liu Shitou lowered his head helplessly and sighed: "I tried my best to persuade the boatman to rent a boat, but I didn't expect something like this to happen. I'm afraid those boatmen will not rent boats anymore."
"Since you don't want to rent it, then we can just buy it." Xie Xu said in a light tone, turning his head to look at Ye Qinglin: "Alin, am I right?"
Ye Qinglin smiled and nodded: "Buy two boats. It just so happens that there are people among us who can row a boat."
After she finished speaking, Ye Qinglin looked towards the farm family.
The farmer knew what Ye Qinglin was thinking and nodded continuously.
It was Xie Cong who told her that they could row the boat. Xie Cong liked to snoop around and had a lot of connections with farmers, so he knew about this.
Afterwards, Ye Qinglin gave Liu Shitou twenty taels of silver to buy a boat.
Liu Shitou took two farmers' sons with him.
Half an hour later, Liu Shitou stood at the bow of the boat, and the farmer rowed the boat over.
Liu Shitou invited everyone to board the boat. The Xie family, the old members of the Xie family, and the father and son of the Liu family were on one boat, and Shangguan Ying and others were on another boat.
Before they reached the other side of the river, the group of people in black clothes and shorts appeared, stood on the shore and smiled smugly at them.
"They just saw us arresting people, and I thought they were scared and wanted to leave, but I didn't expect them to be so brave and actually buy a boat to cross the river. Haha... I'm afraid they are mentally ill."
"Maybe they thought we captured someone and left, and could cross the river safely. What a bunch of fools, hahahaha..."
When Liu Yueshi saw the faces of the men in black clothes and shorts, he was the first to feel unhappy. He wiped his bag and sprinkled a handful of medicine powder on them as soon as the boat docked.
"If you want to speak so harshly, then don't say it!" Liu Yueshi said coldly.
It was the first time someone spoke to them like this. The men in black shorts were furious and opened their mouths to yell at Liu Yueshi, but found that they could not make any sound.
At that moment, they were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they raised their weapons, wanting to let Ye Qinglin and the others know how powerful they were.
Then before they could make a move, they were dealt with by Liu Yueshi with a bag of poison powder.
At first they were unable to utter a sound, and then their bodies became limp and they fell to the ground one by one, without any strength left. They looked at Liu Yueshi in fear.
Liu Yueshi didn't even look at them, and looked at Ye Qinglin and the others: "Let's go."
Liu Shitou nodded and led the team away.
What they didn't know was that the scene just now was seen by a man in black shorts who was hiding in the bushes. He glanced at his companions on the ground, turned around and ran away quickly.
After walking for an afternoon, they stayed in a village and rented a large house from the village head.
While everyone was eating, the village head came running over.
"You better leave quickly."
Liu Shitou came out to talk to the head of the village.
"Li Zheng, what happened?"
"Did you injure those people when you crossed the river?" asked the head of the village anxiously.
Liu Shitou responded: "Those people are too lawless. We will teach them a lesson little by little."
The village head looked at the town with a look of confusion: "You guys should leave quickly. They are a gang in town, with about a hundred people. You are no match for them."
When Liu Shitou heard this, he turned around and looked at Xie Xu and Ye Qinglin, and winked at them, as if asking if they wanted to leave.
Ye Qinglin and Xie Xu looked at each other and shook their heads.
Liu Shitou understood, thanked the head of the village for his kindness, and said that they could handle it.
Seeing that they refused to listen, the village head stopped talking. He thought that he had said what he needed to say, and the rest was none of his business.
Liu Shitou returned to the table and they continued eating.
They didn't take that group of people seriously. They ate what they were supposed to eat and drank what they were supposed to drink.
*
On the other side, a group of people in black clothes and shorts came to the entrance of the village with ferocious looks.
The scarred man in the lead looked at the younger brother who led the way and said sullenly, "Are you sure those people are staying in this village?"
"Yes, Boss." The younger brother nodded again and again: "They crippled our brothers on the river bank."
When the scarred man heard this, his face turned grim and he gritted his teeth: "Those outsiders are so bold that they dare not take me seriously. Let them know how powerful our Black Clothes Gang is!"
"Yes, let them know how powerful we are!" The younger brothers behind him echoed one by one.
Then, the Black Gang marched into the village aggressively.
