It was already dark when the carriage stopped in front of Zuiyulou.Qin Jiaojiao, who was leaning on Shen Xing's body, fell asleep at some point, and Shen Xing gently pushed her: "The shopkeeper, we're here."

Qin Jiaojiao was awakened and opened her eyes, and found that she was still leaning on Shen Xing. She was a little greedy and didn't want to get up, but she had to sit up straight.Shen Xing got out of the carriage and reached out to pick up Qin Jiaojiao.

The two held hands together, Qin Jiaojiao wanted to take them away, but Shen Xing did not let go.

Shen Xing said: Shopkeeper, let me help you in.

Seeing that she looked very tired after a day of hard work, she wanted to help her in kindly, but she refused.

: No, let go.

Shen Xing let go of his hand.I thought it would be inconvenient for the shopkeeper to treat her as a man, so let's find a chance to show her my true self.

The two entered the Zuiyu Building one after the other.

Qin Jiaojiao recruited a young man to ask him to call Xiao Hei, but was told that Xiao Hei would not be in the shop all day today.

Shen Xing was about to go out to look for Xiao Hei, but was stopped by Qin Jiaojiao: Qing'an City is so big, and it's getting dark soon, where can you find him? Maybe he's home, let's talk about it tomorrow.

Shen Xing had no choice but to give up, and the two went back to their respective rooms to rest, without talking for a whole night.

Shen Xing got up early the next morning, and the first thing she did when she woke up was to look for Xiao Hei, but she couldn't find it, so she hurried to find Qin Jiaojiao and wanted to tell her what she had been holding back yesterday.

When Shen Xing came to knock on the door, Qin Jiaojiao was sitting in front of the dressing table, dressing up in front of the mirror, thinking that this person was really impatient, and asked her to wait outside.

Shen Xing waited outside until the flowers were almost withering, Qin Jiaojiao finally opened the door.

Qin Jiaojiao opened the door and let Shen Xing in. She walked to the table and sat down. Shen Xing walked to the opposite side and sat down.

As soon as Shen Xing sat down, she eagerly asked Qin Jiaojiao: Did you guess that Xiao Hei was lying from the very beginning.

Seeing the calm look on her face when she saw the little black lady yesterday, she should have guessed it.No wonder she didn't allow herself to tell Xiao Hei that she was going to Xiao Hei's house.She wanted to verify her guess.

Qin Jiaojiao said casually: Yes, I guessed it.

She wasn't suspicious when she borrowed 20 taels for the first time, but she felt something was wrong when she asked for 50 taels so soon.

Shen Xing asked: Since you guessed it, why did you give him another 50 taels?

Qin Jiaojiao wondered, isn't this person very smart, why does he feel that his brain is not working well now?

: You also said that I guessed, what if his mother is really seriously ill and waiting for money.

Shen Xing laughed awkwardly: That's right.

Qin Jiaojiao asked: You came to me early in the morning to talk about this

Shen Xing said embarrassedly: Shopkeeper, I caused you to lose another 70 taels.

The 70 taels that Qin Jiaojiao lent to Xiao Hei was never returned. If Xiao Hei had to pay back the 70 taels, he would have to pay it back in the Year of the Monkey. If Xiao Hei's mother was really seriously ill, the 70 taels would be worth it. It's just that now I don't know what Xiao Hei is doing with so much money. I don't know if the 70 taels from the shopkeeper is worth it. Shen Xing faintly feels that Xiao Hei may have encountered something bad.

The corners of Qin Jiaojiao's mouth curled up, and she said slowly: You owe me more and more.

Shen Xing laughed a few times in embarrassment, and changed the subject.

: Shopkeeper, what do you think Xiao Hei will do if he borrows so much money?

Qin Jiaojiao stood up and walked out the door: Well, I really can't guess, go and see if he's back.

Qin Jiaojiao walked out of the account room, went downstairs, and saw Xiao Lian talking to a man, and the man left after speaking.

Seeing Qin Jiaojiao coming downstairs, Xiao Lian walked over. .

Qin Jiaojiao asked: Who is that person?

Xiao Lian replied: "Miss, that person is the clerk of Qirui Silk and Satin Factory. He said that yesterday he saw Xiao Hei came out of Dufang and was beaten up by several people in the alley next to Dufang in the west of the city. I hope you can pay attention to it." one time.

Qin Jiaojiao knew it in her heart, no wonder she borrowed it again and again and went to Dufang.

Shen Xing searched upstairs and downstairs but still couldn't find Xiao Hei, so he ran to Qin Jiaojiao and said: "The shopkeeper, I've searched all over, but I can't find Xiao Hei."

Qin Jiaojiao glanced at her and said: Of course you can't find it, others are blocking the square.

Shen Xing frowned, blocking the square?What the shopkeeper meant was that Xiao Hei borrowed so much money to gamble. Is this kid impatient? But how did the shopkeeper know that Xiao Hei was blocking the square? She guessed it again. It's like a god.

Shen Xing said in admiration: Shopkeeper, you are so smart, I never guessed that Xiao Hei was blocking the square.

Qin Jiaojiao looked at this person speechlessly, and said: Boss Zhou's guy saw him in the blockade and just came to tell Xiaolian.

It turned out to be like this, Shen Xing laughed awkwardly: Oh, hehe, I thought you guessed it.I'm going to get that kid back.

After speaking, he walked out of the store.

etc!Qin Jiaojiao called her to stop,

Shen Xing stopped and turned his head: What's wrong?

Qin Jiaojiao walked past him: Do you think you can catch him back?Let's go and meet Boss Zhang.

Will it be Boss Zhang?Shen Xing knew that Boss Zhang was the owner of Dufang in the west of the city. He had come to Zuiyulou for dinner before. Could it be that things were not as simple as he thought? .

===

In a small dark room, Xiao Hei curled up on the ground, his face was painted, obviously he had been beaten, Xiao Hei regretted that his intestines were green, if it wasn't for passing by Dufang that day, he went in and gambled twice , As a result, the more gambling addiction becomes, the more you lose, the more you want to win back. Now you won't owe Dufang so much money, get beaten up with bruised nose and face, and can't go back home.I got a lot of money from the gambling shop on credit, so I didn't dare to credit any more, so I lied to Shen Xing, cheating her sympathy and letting her borrow 70 taels from the shopkeeper. I wanted to win some back, but in the end I lost all of it after a while It's all gone, Xiao Hei's heart is thinking about the proprietress, and the only one who can save him from this catastrophe is the proprietress.

Qin Jiaojiao has never touched the word gambling, but the boss Zhang of the gambling shop is her regular customer of Zuiyulou, so she has a little friendship.

In the gambling house in the west of the city, Qin Jiaojiao was sitting, and Boss Zhang was sitting opposite.After exchanging pleasantries between the two, Qin Jiaojiao calmly asked: A guy named Xiao Hei from my shop came to you yesterday and hasn't been back since. Boss Zhang should know him. I want to ask Boss Zhang. Do you know where he went.

Qin Jiaojiao knew in her heart that Xiao Hei was most likely detained by him, and a gloomy smile appeared on the boss's face: Shopkeeper Qin is well informed, I was just about to send someone to your place.

Boss Zhang motioned to his clerk, and the clerk stepped back. After a while, the clerk brought a piece of paper to Boss Zhang, and Boss Zhang put the piece of paper in front of Qin Jiaojiao.

: Shopkeeper Qin, this is a pledge of calligraphy and painting signed by your buddy. Recently, he has put a total of 500 taels of silver on credit in my gambling shop.

It was clearly written in black and white on the paper, and the credit was 500 taels!

Shen Xing, who was standing behind Qin Jiaojiao, was shocked, his heart trembled, and his palms were sweating. 500 taels, such a large amount of money, is that kid looking for death?

Qin Jiaojiao was also taken aback when she saw the words on the paper, she couldn't help frowning, she had already guessed that Xiao Hei must owe Du Fang a lot of money to be beaten, but 500 taels was beyond her expectations.

Qin Jiaojiao thought for a moment and said to Boss Zhang: Where is the little black man?

Boss Zhang asked one of his men to go down and bring Xiao Hei, and after a while Xiao Hei was brought up.Xiao Hei saw the proprietress and Shen Xing's eyes turn red, and they really came to save him.

Seeing the wound on Xiao Hei's face, Shen Xing said angrily to Boss Zhang: How did you beat someone?

Boss Zhang snorted and said: This kid wants to sneak out even if he owes money, I just taught him a few times.

Shen Xing secretly clenched his fists.Qin Jiaojiao shook Shen Xing's hand calmly, signaling him not to act impulsively.

The boss said again: Shopkeeper Qin, you little girl, do you want to save him or not? If you don't save him, I will let him sign a contract of selling himself, and his little life will be mine.

Hearing what he said, Qin Jiaojiao thought, it turned out that Zhang Qishan had this wishful thinking, he knew that Xiao Hei had no money, and deliberately gave him so much money on credit, he wanted himself to pay Xiao Hei back the money, It was insidious.

Xiao Hei plopped down on his knees when he heard the words "Deed of Sale", and cried, "Master, please help me."

After signing the deed of sale, his life is over.

Qin Jiaojiao looked down at Xiao Hei at her feet, and said sharply: "Save you?"Why did you ask me to save you when you caused trouble yourself?You should have known what was going to happen the moment you stepped into the casino.

Boss Zhang was really doing that wishful thinking. He gave Xiao Hei the credit because he knew that Qin Jiaojiao had always been kind to the guys, and he thought she wouldn't do nothing. Hearing what she said to the guy now, he felt a little bit uneasy. Ready.So he said to Qin Jiaojiao: How about it, I will give you five days to think about it.

Qin Jiaojiao didn't reply to Boss Zhang's words, stood up and walked out.

Seeing that Qin Jiaojiao didn't intend to save him, Xiao Hei knelt down in front of Shen Xing again, and said tearfully: Shen Xing, save me.

Shen Xing was in a dilemma and didn't know what to do. If she had 500 taels, she would definitely rescue Xiao Hei, but she didn't have 500 taels, let alone 50 taels.

Qin Jiaojiao walked to the gate of Dufang and turned back to Shen Xing and said: You still don't want to leave

Shen Xing glanced at Xiao Hei, then at Qin Jiaojiao, she can't help here at all, so let's go back with the shopkeeper.

===

On the way back, Shen Xing hesitated to speak several times. She wanted Qin Jiaojiao to save Xiao Hei, but she couldn't. I feel ridiculous.But what about Xiao Hei?

Shen Xing followed Qin Jiaojiao back to Zuiyu Tower full of worries.

Qin Jiaojiao saw Shen Xing's frowning face, wanting to say something but not daring to say it, and asked her: Do you want me to save Xiao Hei?

Shen Xing nodded tentatively: Yes.If Xiao Hei signed the deed of selling himself. . .

: That's what he deserves. Why did he go to a gambling house at such a young age? Can something that ruins his fortune be contaminated?

Shen Xing was speechless, Qin Jiaojiao was right, all this was caused by Xiao Hei himself, the shopkeeper should not and has no obligation to pay for his mistakes, and the shopkeeper is not a philanthropist.

Qin Jiaojiao saw that Shen Xing frowned and pursed his lips and said softly, "Don't worry about Xiao Hei, you can go to work. I'm a little tired and I'll go back to my room first."

Shen Xing said with concern: Well, shopkeeper, go back to your room and rest.

Qin Jiaojiao walked to the second floor.Shen Xing was extremely melancholy, she would definitely save Xiao Hei, 500 taels, where to get 500 taels. . .
