Chapter 198

Daheng was guessing in his heart, but he didn't delay at all. He quickly nodded his chubby head and said repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes! I heard that Miss Yingying had stayed at the Tao-Ye Inn before, so I thought that you guys had also stayed there. Why didn't you stay at the same place as them, Big Brother? "

Ye Xiaotian secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this brother of his was as fat as a pig, but his mind was much sharper than a pig's. Ye Xiaotian replied with a beaming smile, "I've always lived in a hotel in Nanjing. Later on, I moved to a hotel, so I've never lived in an inn."

Ye Xiaotian was afraid that Daheng would rashly say something else again, so he quickly said, "Daheng, you came at the right time. Quickly come with me to the study room, I was just about to ask you about the situation on the inn."

Daheng happily said, "Okay, let's go! Aiya, I can't. Big Brother, please wait for a moment, my wife is still behind, how could I have forgotten about her … "

Law Tycoon scratched his head and turned around. He saw Niuniu slowly walking over. Just as she reached the entrance of the courtyard, she shouted from afar, "Law Tycoon, you pig, you left me alone and ran so fast like a pig in a trough. You might as well just throw me away."

Law Tycoon quickly smiled apologetically and went forward to support her, saying, "I can't throw you away, I can't throw you away. If I lose my precious wife, won't my Little Heng also disappear?"

Niu Niu gave him a slap and said angrily, "Good, so you only care about your Little Heng."

Law Tycoon smiled apologetically, "Niuniu, I care, I also care about Little Heng. Hehe, we both care, we both care."

At first, when Ye Xiaotian heard Luo Daheng say "my virtuous wife", he did not pay much attention to it. This brat did not keep his mouth shut, and his words were always unreliable. Later, when he heard him say "my wife", Ye Xiaotian realized that something was wrong. However, before he could ask, Niuniu arrived.

Now that he heard the conversation between Niuniu and Law Tycoon, Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but be surprised and happy. He quickly said, "Why, you are already married? Haha, sister-in-law already has a child? "

Niuniu was slightly shy and happy. She bowed to Ye Xiaotian and said, "Hello, Big Brother Ye."

"Okay, okay, okay. You are not feeling well, don't bow." Ye Xiaotian looked at her attentively. Niu Niu's waist was indeed not as slim as before. It seemed like she was really pregnant.

Niuniu's waist was indeed not as slim as before. It seemed that she was really pregnant. Ye Xiaotian said to Law Tycoon regretfully, "You two are actually married. What a pity, what a pity. I actually didn't have the chance to attend your wedding."

Law Tycoon said proudly, "How is that possible. I don't care about other people's gifts, but big brother's gifts cannot be lacking. Hehe, Niuniu and I are not married yet. My father doesn't agree and I have already been chased out. When my father accepts Niuniu, I will hold a wedding. At that time, I will definitely ask you to be the officiant. "

Ye Xiaotian was stunned, "You … you two are not married yet? But Niuniu she … "

Law Tycoon said, "What's wrong with that? Many of the local Miao couples live together first. Some have a few children before holding a wedding. What's more, they only get married when they are in their seventies or eighties and have many children and grandchildren. "

Ye Xiaotian knew about this. But Law Tycoon and Niuniu were not Miao people after all. Even though Ye Xiaotian had lived locally for more than two years, many of his subconscious thoughts were developed in the capital city since he was young. He really felt that it was a little strange.

Ye Xiaotian said to Zhan Ning'er and Sister Sun, "Ning'er, Duo Ni, accompany Niuniu to the parlor. I have something to say to Daheng."

Ning'er and Sister Sun nodded their heads in agreement and accompanied Niuniu away. As they walked, Sister Sun looked at Niuniu enviously. Her waist was slightly thicker. If one looked closely, there was a slight bulge in her belly.

Little Sister Sun quietly touched her belly. Hmm … it's flat. When will that part of mine swell up and give birth to a baby for Little Brother Tian? When she thought that there would be a baby in her belly one day, a child of her and Little Brother Tian, Duo Ni felt like she just drank a bottle of rice wine. Her body was limp and her heart was intoxicated.

Ye Xiaotian accompanied Law Tycoon into the study. The two of them sat down. The little girl from Ruo Xiaosheng's family served them two cups of tea. Ye Xiaotian smiled and asked, "Are you and your father in a bad relationship?"

From what Law Tycoon said, Ye Xiaotian knew that he and his father were in a bad relationship. Otherwise, he would never do something like getting married first and then going through the ceremony.

Law Tycoon was a naturally optimistic person. He probably never knew what worry was. He said indifferently, "Yes! My father shouted at me. He said that if I didn't listen to him and marry the Lin family's third daughter, he wouldn't recognize me as his son. I said, if you don't recognize Niuniu as your daughter-in-law, I won't recognize you as my father … "

Ye Xiaotian's eyes widened. "And then?"

Law Tycoon smiled mischievously and said, "And then, I was kicked out by my father."

Ye Xiaotian patted his forehead. This brother was too careless. He couldn't be speculated with common sense. Ye Xiaotian originally wanted to ask about his recent situation and express his deep sympathy and consolation for his unfortunate encounter and difficult situation. But looking at Law Tycoon's excited look, it seemed that he didn't need any consolation. He probably still liked this kind of free life where he was the master of the house.

Ye Xiaotian said, "You said that your business is booming just now? Your father kicked you out of the house, but he didn't cut off your livelihood? "

From Ye Xiaotian's point of view, if Hong Baichuan wanted to force his son to submit, he should cut off his source of income. That way, there would still be a chance of success. Otherwise, how could he force the tycoon to bow his head? But from what the tycoon said just now, his finances were obviously not a problem.

Law Tycoon said proudly, "That's natural. I'm my father's only son. If he cuts off my source of income, isn't he afraid that I will starve to death?"

Ye Xiaotian smiled bitterly and said, "How's your carriage business?"

Law Tycoon said, "I haven't paid attention to the carriage business for a long time. A few days ago, my father and I had a bit of a quarrel. During that time, I relied on Niu Niu to support the general store. I handed the carriage business over to Sun Weixuan. Little Sun is a good material. Plus, he originally made a living on the courier road, so he's more familiar with that area than I am. He also has more prestige among the couriers and porters than I do. With him supporting me, it'll be fine."

Ye Xiaotian's gaze froze and said, "Didn't Xu Boyi find fault with you?"

The smile on Law Tycoon's face was like a watery tea, slowly fading away. "How could he not find fault with him? Chang Zi Zai couldn't hold on any longer, so he turned to Magistrate Zhao, while Xie Chuanfeng turned to Register Wang. County Magistrate Xu didn't seem to directly interfere with the courier road, but he and Register Wang were originally in cahoots, so they naturally became Xie Chuanfeng's backer.

Chang Zi Zai had Magistrate Zhao as his backing, and Magistrate Zhao was the manager of the courier road, so he naturally gave him a lot of convenience. Xie Chuanfeng had Register Wang and County Magistrate Xu as his backing, and County Magistrate Xu was now the head of the courier road in Hulu County, so Xie Chuanfeng received a lot of benefits as a result. "

Ye Xiaotian narrowed his eyes and said, "What about you guys?"

Daheng laughed and said, "We're fine! Xu Boyi also knows that I'm your brother, so he wanted to target me, so I simply didn't show my face and left the matters of the scene to Gao Ya and Li Bohao. Those two fellows don't have any other abilities, but they're good at boasting, putting on airs, and pretending to be stupid. They have the Gao and Li stockaded villages as their backing, and I also knew when to retreat, so Xu Boyi didn't make things too difficult for them.

However, Xu Boyi and Magistrate Zhao did their best to make things convenient for their own people, so we couldn't find fault with them. Recently, there has been a large amount of military supplies being transported, so the courier road is overflowing with oil. Because of this, their carriage business has made a lot of money. In this aspect, we are lacking.

If it weren't for Sun Weixuan's good conduct, many of our outstanding carriage drivers would have changed jobs. Even so, there are still quite a few people who have left our carriage business. Big Brother, it's good that you're back. While the war on the frontlines hasn't ended, as long as we seize the opportunity, we still have a chance to become the leader of the courier road! "

"Yes!"

Ye Xiaotian nodded with a resolute expression and didn't say anything else. The current situation in Hulu County was more serious and complicated than he had imagined, but he couldn't tell Daheng about it. Since you're a leader, you have to bear some things by yourself. You have to give others enough confidence.

Ye Xiaotian walked to the window and gently pushed it open. At this time, the sky should have been filled with the glow of sunset, but the sky was covered with dark clouds. The night wind was heavy and damp, as if a storm was coming. The dark clouds hung low over the mountaintop, making it difficult to breathe. However, as Ye Xiaotian stared at the heavy clouds, he suddenly smiled.

So what if there were thousands of things to worry about? So what if there were many difficulties? He didn't need to deal with them one by one. He only needed to grasp one point and break through it, and it would be enough to cause his enemies to collapse! He only needed to find one point, grasp one point, and completely break through it …

…

Little by little, little by little …

Raindrops fell one after another, hitting the lotus leaves askew, wetting the pistils, and creating ripples in the lotus jar. Soon after, the dense raindrops fell one after another, and the ripples in the lotus jar could no longer be seen. The broken water surface and splashing water formed a chaotic world of water.

Outside the vat, it was also raining cats and dogs. This kind of weather was obviously very suitable for drinking. Magistrate Hua had been in Gourd County for five years, and the older he was, the more timid he became. However, he was good at drinking. After drinking an entire jar of wine, he slumped on the table with a silly smile on his face. It was probably only in the drunken world that he could be so relaxed and natural.

Su Ya watched as the drunk Hua Qingfeng was helped to the bed and covered him with a quilt. She stood by the bed for a long time, sighed faintly, and walked out.

Under the porch, a lantern was swaying in the wind.

Under the lantern stood a man, wearing a straw raincoat and another in the crook of his arm. He stood there quietly. The light reflected on the hat of the man in the straw raincoat, covering his mouth. When he saw Su Ya, he raised his head slightly. The light moved up and reflected his face. It was Su Xuntian.

"Sister, it's raining heavily tonight. Should we do it another day …"

Su Ya said, "Wouldn't it show more sincerity to go in the rain?"

Su Xuntian did not say anything and only handed over the straw raincoat. Su Ya put on the straw raincoat, and her beautiful figure was hidden under it. When she lowered her head, it was impossible to tell that she was a girl.

Su Ya said, "Let's go!" She took the lead and walked down the stone steps. Su Xuntian stood under the porch, silently looked at his sister's back, and then looked back at the closed door. He sighed and quickly chased after her. The two figures quickly disappeared in the blurry rain …
