Pregnant with God of War after escaping from marriage [Transmigration Book]

Chapter 27 Tracking

Qi Wu went to the tooth shop early in the morning, and then the steward and the buddy drove the car to take Qi Wu to look around the house in the city.

The first place I looked at was relatively close to the dental shop, facing the entrance of the street, with three entrances and two courtyards.

Qi Wu kind of likes the fruit trees in the back yard, but he thinks the house is too small and noisy from the street.

Although he doesn't plan to live in Licheng permanently, after buying a house this time, he might not actually live in it until he leaves. Qi Wu is not short of the money to buy a house, but it doesn't make sense to make a hasty decision.

In the future, even if you live for a short vacation, you still have to live there.If you don't choose, Qi Wu might as well just buy a thatched cottage.

He's just going to be picky.

"The older ones, be quieter."

So the steward of the tooth shop asked the clerk to drive the car, and walked to the alley for a while, and took Qi Wu to see Wujin's house.This house is bigger, quieter and more spacious than the previous one, but at first glance, it looks like no one has lived in it for more than ten years, and several roofs are broken.

Qi Wu was still wearing a veiled hat, and the steward couldn't see his expression clearly, but when he saw him enter the house, he didn't say much, and the steward guessed that he was dissatisfied.

"My lord, don't look at this dilapidated place. It's just that there are more dust and cobwebs from people who haven't lived there for a long time. Although the roof is missing some tiles, it doesn't take much effort to repair it inside and out, and this house is cheap. The courtyard with five entrances is quiet and not far from the main street, and it is only [-]% more silver than the first three entrances."

Steward Ren said that the sky was full of hype, but Qi Wu still shook his head: "You don't need to repair it when you change the place, you can live in it after cleaning it."

For business, especially the business of this house, it is generally impossible to close a deal quickly, so I only looked at two places, and the manager was not in a hurry, walked out facing Qi Wu, and continued to look at the next place.

Leaving the alley here, the man drove to the next street, walked along it for a while, and then turned into an alley that was obviously wider than the one just now.

"My lord, what do you think of this house? It's quiet, and it's brand new. Although it only has three entrances, it's spacious. The front and back yards are very large, and the room in the middle is also very spacious. Although there is no furniture in the house, you need to buy it yourself. But this house is also cheap, how much do you guess?"

The manager said mysteriously and stretched out his hand: "It's only 250 taels! In this area, in Licheng, such a house is very rare!"

This price is indeed cheap enough, but the numbers sound like curses.But it doesn't matter, the house is pretty good, it's better without furniture, Qi Wu originally planned to buy it himself, if possible, he doesn't like to use what others have used.

But... He raised his eyebrows and asked the steward: "Such a good house, has it not been sold?"

The steward just smiled: "Isn't this just about to tell the young master, this is the house... someone has died."

"..." The corner of Qi Wu's mouth twitched, "It doesn't sound like he's dying."

The steward sighed: "The young master is not from Licheng, maybe he didn't know it. About a year ago, Tanmo, the subordinate supervisor of the prefect of Licheng, hid the gold and silver treasures of Tanmo in this house. Let the eunuch find out that he is going to arrest him for Fa-rectification, but who knows that the subordinate governor has nowhere to go, so he came to this house and threw himself into the trap!"

"If you die, you will die with the things from Tanmo... Later, this house was vacated, and our dentist took this house cheaply. We thought we could make a little money, and 100 taels would do. Well, anyway... I'm not afraid to tell my son that the cost of this house is cheap. Who knows, it fell into my hands!"

Qi Wu: "..." He was a little skeptical, maybe he was pretending too much, why couldn't the manager recommend a good house for him?There are so many houses, is it possible that you can't find an ordinary house that is okay?

Seeing Qi Wu's silence, the steward said hurriedly: "The subordinate supervisor hanged himself on the tree next to the back door. We have dug up the tree even at the back door. Young master, you..."

"I'm not that short of money. If you don't want to do my business, it's not like there are other dental shops in Licheng that make a living from it." Qi Wu's tone sank.

The steward was stunned for a moment, then let out a haha, and hurriedly called the buddy to go out to drive the car... Selling a house, and they don't know the bottom line of the customers, so their businessmen naturally introduce them from the poor.

Afterwards, he went to several houses, but it was not that there were no suitable ones, but he didn't see any suitable ones, so Qi Wu wanted to take another look.If there is no one he is most satisfied with today, then he can pick out a suitable house at will.

In this way, at sunset, Qi Wu was also tired from watching, and said: "I'll go back and think about it, and I will go to Yaxing tomorrow to decide on a place with you."

Hearing this, the steward was overjoyed.He originally thought that according to Qi Wu's difficulty in serving him today, this business would either fail or take a long time, but he didn't expect that he would be a straightforward boss!

So the steward wanted to send Qi Wu back to the inn where he was staying, but Qi Wu refused.

He didn't plan to go back yet, firstly because he hadn't gone out at night for several days, and secondly because he still had things to do.

There is no curfew in Licheng, even during the days when the queen is mourning, there is only a rule of "no going out on the streets from Zishi to Yinshi".No matter how late it is these days, the vast majority of people will not stay outside until midnight, so the curfew seems to be in vain.

Ask the dental assistant who was driving the car to stop at the intersection of Linan Street, Qi Wu bid farewell to the steward, and went straight into the street.The streets are bustling at night, with more people than during the day, but colorful lanterns or other decorations are not allowed to be hung, which makes it less gorgeous.

Wearing a veiled hat, Qi Wu walked unobtrusively among the crowd. When he passed by a pastry shop, he went in to buy a bag of sugar cakes, and then came out to eat while walking on the road.After eating, he patted the crumbs on his hands, and went into a small shop specializing in beef soup, washed his hands with clean water, sat down and drank a bowl of fragrant soup.

Seeing that the time was almost up, he wandered into a shop selling rouge and gouache.

This makeup shop is very big, and there are mostly women in the shop, some go out alone, some are accompanied by maidservants, and there are also young sisters who look like close friends in the boudoir as companions, sporadically, you can see a few men accompanying their wives around Pick...Anyway, there is no such thing as Qi Wu, a big man came in alone.

Although Qi Wu was wearing a veiled hat, his hair was also covered in fear that the veiled hat would fall off accidentally, but his figure and attire were there so that no one could be mistaken.

Seeing that it was a man who came in, the clerk hesitated and came up to say hello: "This young man... is he buying rouge for your wife?"

Qi Wu didn't expect that after he had been shopping for so long, there were so many people in this shop... They were all here, Qi Wu coughed lightly, calm and composed.He was wearing a veil anyway, and no one saw his face.

"Yes." Qi Wu responded to the buddy's question without even thinking about it.

So the clerk took him to look at the goods in the store, and by the way, praised Qi Wu unparalleled in the sky and earth, and finally said: "You look like a good husband, your wife is really blessed...The ones I just introduced to you, Do you want them all, or just pick one or two?"

Qi Wu pretended to pause for a while, and then asked: "Those things, women like?"

The clerk took a look and tried harder to sell: "Of course! Our Wanbaohong makeup and powder shop is well-known in the whole Licheng! There is no girl who doesn't like it! Our Wanbaohong makeup and powder shop uses good materials, and everything is available. Look at this box of lip balm, our shopkeeper specially invited a painter to paint it, and then asked the master to make a mold, and press it bit by bit to make it so delicate and beautiful, you..."

"Okay, that's all." Qi Wu said very richly, and then lowered his voice and asked, "Then... do you have someone here who can cover up your ugliness?"

Hearing this, the guy rolled his eyes and lowered his voice: "You mean, there are spots on the face? Or birthmarks? Or something?"

"A birthmark is growing on the peak of the nose, it's not big or small, but the color is very red..." Qi Wu opened his mouth and came.

The guy didn't expect such a serious situation, so he was a little embarrassed.

Qi Wu sighed: "It seems that there is no way... To be honest, I have not married a wife, but I just have a sweetheart. I agree with my sweetheart, but I was born with a birthmark, which is so obtrusive that I even fail the imperial examination. I can't take the test, the parents of my sweetheart don't want their daughter to marry me after seeing my appearance... I have no choice but to come to this rouge place to try..."

When the guy heard this, he felt a little sympathetic, thinking that it's no wonder this young man is wearing a veiled hat, it was originally to hide his ugliness.The bright red birthmark in the middle of his face is indeed a bit of an eyesore, and this young man's voice is clear and his hands are generous, so if he doesn't have that birthmark, he must be very popular.

"My lord, I also want to help you, but... your situation is really difficult. If there are birthmarks or scars on the forehead or side of the face, our Wanbaohong makeup and rouge shop..."

The guy probably has a bit of professionalism on his body. He lowered his voice when he spoke, but when he mentioned the name of their shop, he suddenly raised his head and raised his chest, and his voice became loud... Fortunately, the other guys in the shop were like this, so they didn't attract the attention of others. .

"There is a master who specializes in combing customers' hair!" As he said, the man lowered his voice again, "Although I have only combed women's hair before, it must not be difficult to comb men's hair. I will cover up your birthmark... but your birthmark is not easy to deal with, the one in the middle of your face..."

Qi Wu frowned slightly: "With so much rouge and gouache, is there nothing that can change your complexion?"

The clerk waved his hand: "Hey, you're an amateur. That's not called changing your complexion, it's just making your face bright and smooth. If you really change your complexion, it will be so disharmonious. If you change your complexion, people won't be able to see it. Man said that we don’t have any Wanbaohong makeup and rouge shop, that is, we can’t find it in the whole Licheng, you can’t find it in Licheng, you may be lucky enough to find it in the palace.”

"You want to ask about the ointment that covers the spots?" The man said again, but before Qi Wu got excited, the man said again, "Although there is, it can only cover a little bit, and it has to be inconspicuous It can only be covered, and the effect is not good...Your red birthmark, no way."

After chatting with this guy about the various effects of rouge and gouache for a while, Qi Wu found helplessly that he had no choice but to return in vain.

Seeing that Qi Wu's tone became more and more lacklustre, the clerk suddenly became annoyed, for fear that Qi Wu would be unhappy, and he would not buy what he had agreed to buy just now.But he really had nothing to do, he couldn't help Qi Wu, so he had to accompany him carefully and asked: "Then...my lord, these rouge powders, and the hairpin I saw just now..."

Qi Wu raised his hand, a little weakly: "Wrap it up."

You can't let the guys do a lot of work for nothing, right?

The buddy let out a happy "hey".

First, they wrapped each item separately, and then wrapped everything together with a large piece of paper. After Qi Wu paid the money, he left this Wanbaohong makeup and rouge shop with a large package of things that he didn't need at all. .

It wasn't until on the way back to the inn that he accidentally passed the bulletin board used by the government office. Qi Wu walked over to look at it by the dim candlelight, and found that the two people who robbed him had already entered the prison. Be happy.

"Master, I don't want to follow that Mr. Wu anymore."

Seeing Qi Wu go back to the inn, and then the lights in the house were turned off, Fifteen was tired and hungry and returned to the guest house of the Han Mansion, and told Shang Fuheng about Qi Wu's busy schedule today.

"He's a bit weird, but I don't think he's suspicious. There are more people in Licheng who are weirder than him... The candy cake he ate today must be delicious, and the Home beef soup, I ate it two days ago, the beans in the beef soup are really delicious!"

Shang Fuheng was still thinking about the narration of Shiwu just now, and finally smiled: "It really is a liar."

Fifteen thought Shang Fuheng was scolding him, but when he started to refute, Shang Fuheng gave him a cold look: "Why do you talk so much nonsense?"

Fifteen: "...I followed him around the city for a whole day! He went to so many places, I'll tell you all about it, can you not have too many!"

Shang Fuheng waved his sleeves.

Fifteen had no choice but to stop talking in grief and indignation, and went back to nest in the tree honestly.

Shang Fuheng leaned on the soft bed, the more he thought about it, the more interesting he became.

Facing those who robbed wealth, he opened his mouth and arranged for his parents and stepmothers.Facing the robbing, he also talked about the God of War with his sister and nephew.I told someone who was in the mass grave business that I had a cousin who said he was so good-looking that he wore a veiled hat.Tell the guy in the rouge and powder shop that he has a sweetheart, and that he is too ugly so he wears a veiled hat.Disappeared in the inn for a few days, and then disappeared for a few days, and now I started to look at the house.

Other Shang Fuheng didn't make sure, but he felt that this male god must be an orphan.

No father, no mother, the kind where the six relatives are cut off, otherwise how could they talk about the names of the family members at every turn.

"There is a red birthmark on the face..." Shang Fuheng murmured softly.

That face is as white as jade, where did the birthmark come from?

Let alone a birthmark, I didn't even see a red mole... There was indeed a small red mole on the front neck, near the skirt of the shirt.

After a while, the corners of Shang Fuheng's lips raised slightly, and he said to himself slowly: "There is a red birthmark on the face...it must be an unsightly red mark on the back of the neck!"

"No wonder the hair is disheveled all day long, and there is no shape."

Shang Fuheng held the folding fan in his hand, and lightly tapped the other end of the fan on the palm of the other hand.

If it's just an ordinary birthmark, even if it's on the back of the neck, there's no need to cover it up.Even if it is unsightly, it has little effect, after all, it is behind, and no one can see it when talking to people face to face.

The shameful red mark, recalling the previous association.

Shang Fuheng felt that the male god must really be from the Qi clan.

"This Licheng is full of talents. I haven't seen half of the Qi people in Micheng for many years. I only came to Licheng once, and I heard and met quite a few of them." Shang Fuheng said slowly.

The leaves rustled.

After a while, a muffled voice came from the tree: "Master, you mean Mr. Wu?"

Hearing this, Shang Fuheng slightly raised his eyebrows: "Qi Wu... Wu... Mass grave, cousin... The post station is on fire."

"What's the name of that Qi clansman who died in the fire at the post station?" Shang Fuheng asked.

Fifteen replied: "Qi Wu... well, if it's really a member of the Qi clan, don't they all name their names so casually? Wu Wu Wu Wu... It's easy to get confused if you call it too fast."

Shang Fuheng stopped beating the fan.

That's it.

The day they met for the first time was the first day Liu Lu and his subordinates went to the National Temple.The day the male god returned to live in the inn was the day when a member of the Qi tribe was burned to death in the inn, and the time difference between before and after was very short.

In addition, the male god was generous, and he was always paying 500 taels of silver bills, but he didn't have smaller denomination silver bills or real silver taels...

Shang Fuheng sneered: "That trash Liu Lu."

Fifteen was silent and puzzled, and shed tears of bitterness for Mr. Liu Luliu, who was scolded for no reason.

The author has something to say:
