Chapter 135 Women's mixed double fight, Nana took the opportunity to blackmail.
Xie Zhiyao drank a glass of wine and finally saw Xu Hongdou coming back from outside. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "What did you mail? Such a big box? Why didn't you tell me earlier? As your boss, I have to thank you at least."
Seeing Xie Zhiyao smiling and still in the mood to joke with her, Xu Hongdou was basically certain that what Brother Xiaowu said was right, this guy definitely knew Xie Zhiyuan's location.
"Don't try to play that on me. I came here to help because of Nana. I don't want you, the big boss, to owe me a favor."
Hearing Xu Hongdou's unfriendly tone, Xie Zhiyao was a little embarrassed. "You can't say that. Although you are doing this for Nana's sake, you really helped me. If I don't show some appreciation, I'll feel bad. How about this, I'll treat you to a meal? How about Gesanghua Restaurant? Or braised chicken?"
When Xu Hongdou heard about the braised chicken, she couldn't help but think of what happened that day, and the misunderstanding with her brother, so she refused directly, "No need, didn't you say you had something to say? Just say it directly."
Xie Zhiyao whispered, "I heard from Xiaochun that it was those little guys who spread the rumors."
"I know this. Is this what you want to say?" Xu Hongdou asked without raising her head.
"Yes, doesn't this mean that we are both innocent?" Xie Zhiyao saw Xu Hongdou's attitude and suggested, "How about I buy you a drink to celebrate that we are both cleared of suspicion?"
Xu Hongdou couldn't help but sneer at the doctor, "Xie Zhiyao, aren't you bored? What's there to celebrate? It wasn't me who did it, so just clarify it. As for you, why don't you go find your brother when you have time? As a brother, I don't think you're worried at all, right?"
Being looked at with suspicion by Xu Hongdou, Xie Zhiyao explained somewhat uncomfortably, "What's the point of me caring? He's such a grown-up, where can I go to find him?"
Xu Hongdou raised her head and looked at Xie Zhiyao with an expression that said "you look like I'm a fool".
This made Xie Zhiyao secretly feel bad, but he still asked calmly, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Xu Hongdou was looking at Xie Zhiyao, who was still refusing to admit it. She was really furious. It turned out that she was the only one who was anxious and worried about the whole thing. When she thought about how this guy was secretly laughing at her, Xu Hongdou's tone became unfriendly.
"What do you think? Mr. Xie? The smartest person in Yunmiao Village? I really don't understand. Do you find this interesting? Do you feel a sense of accomplishment watching us perform there? Don't you think it's too much for you to have such a bad taste?"
Xie Zhiyao saw Xu Hongdou's unhappy face and scratched his head awkwardly, "You know everything?"
Before Xu Hongdou could respond, Nana, who was standing by, quickly tried to smooth things over. She glared at Xie Zhiyao and criticized him, "Boss Xie, you really went too far. We were all kept in the dark by you, right? A bunch of people were anxious, but you were still acting with them. I can't tell that when did you take acting classes?"
"Especially when you look like you don't care at all. If someone doesn't know, I would think that you brothers don't have a good relationship with each other."
Xie Zhiyao saw Nana winking at him, and understood what she meant. He explained with some frustration and grievance, "Nana, you can't say that. You've been here for so long, how could you not know the situation in the village? There were so many people at the time. If I said I knew, everyone in the village would know it. Besides, Xia Xia's reaction was not right. There was a suspected accomplice. How could I have said it at the time?"
Nana saw that the time was almost right and was about to give Xu Hongdou a way out, but Xu Hongdou did not let Nana have her way.
Xu Hongdou is not stupid, so how could she not see the intentions of the two people? However, her current mentality is completely different from that in the original drama. In the original drama, her best friend died and she couldn't find the direction of her life. But now it is different. Her best friend is still there, and she has Chen An, a considerate little brother, by her side. In particular, she doesn't like Xie Zhiyao's style of doing things, which is too patriarchal.
There was a hint of sarcasm in his words, "Boss Xie, stop fooling Nana and using Xia Xia as a shield. You might as well just say that I, the biggest suspect in spreading the rumor, was there at the time. That would be more realistic."
Xie Zhiyao did have such concerns in his heart at the time, but being exposed in public still made him feel very embarrassed. He tried his best to explain, "Didn't you suspect me too? Besides, in this matter, you were indeed the most suspicious at the time, right?"
"It's not important, it's not important..." Xu Hongdou waved her hands casually.
"It's not that important. I know where he is, but I have my own plans. Listen to me..."
"Okay, okay, you're right. I'm just worrying about nothing. He's your brother after all. You're not in a hurry, so why should I worry about him? It turns out that it's unnecessary..."
Xie Zhiyao was choked by Xu Hongdou's sarcastic words. He looked at Nana and asked, "How did you guess that those rumors were spread by those kids?"
Nana stretched out her hand and shook it.
Xie Zhiyao raised his hand and gestured, "What do you mean, goodbye? High five?"
"Fifty dollars, I'll tell you." Nana said, trying not to laugh. This is a good trick. No wonder Xiao Chen likes it so much.
Xie Zhiyao shook his head immediately upon hearing this, "Fifty? Forget it, now that I've found the source, I'm not interested in this anymore."
Seeing Xie Zhiyao's expression, Nana pouted and complained, "I've never seen a boss as stingy as you, a miser..."
"No matter what you say, it's impossible to cheat me out of money..." Xie Zhiyao smiled smugly, but when he turned around and met Xu Hongdou's contemptuous eyes, his expression froze...
Xu Hongdou opened the package and took out two large bags of beef jerky, which, conservatively estimated, weighed at least three or four pounds.
"Nana, come and try it and see how it tastes. My best friend said that this is a specialty from Inner Mongolia, and it is made by herders themselves. It is different from the ones sold on the market."
"Oh, this is good stuff." Nana took the beef jerky, tore open the package, took a bite, and chewed it carefully. "Red beans, don't mention it, this is different from what I ate before, it's chewy, and not smelly at all. The more you chew it, the more delicious it tastes. It's definitely a good dish to go with wine. Let's have a drink tonight..."
"Okay." Xu Hongdou took a few pieces and walked towards the two grandmas.
Xie Zhiyao blinked? What happened? Was he being ignored?
Looking at Xie Zhiyao's expression, Nana snorted, "Boss Xie, offending a woman is not a smart choice. I heard that your family still has a lot of cherry wine."
Xie Zhiyao glanced at Nana unhappily, "I said you failed to defraud money, and now you're extorting money?"
"If you can't bear to do it, forget it. Hongdou worked so hard to help, but in the end..."
When Xie Zhiyao heard the sinister tone, he quickly begged for mercy, "Okay, I can't afford to offend you, but I don't have much stock left at home, just two bottles..."
Nana raised three fingers, "At least three bottles, otherwise I won't be able to go shopping for a long time..."
"You're so ruthless. Deal." Xie Zhiyao agreed gloomily, but then he remembered his purpose today and asked, "Why don't I see Brother Xiao Chen? Isn't he inseparable from Xu Hongdou?"
"I noticed you are so gossipy. What do you mean by inseparable? Xiao Chen is in the courtyard."
"Okay, go ahead and do your work. I'll be leaving first."
Nana quickly called Xie Zhiyao and asked cautiously, "Do you have something to do with him?"
Seeing Nana's suspicious look, Xie Zhiyao explained awkwardly, "Let's chat, chat. Brother Chen is quite interesting. I'll leave first if you're busy. I'll send you the wine in the evening."
