Chapter 265: Small Restaurant
Li Yu just smiled and asked:
"Who are the people in Tong Lingfeng's family?"
"Tong Lingfeng's husband is called Xing Linhai. He was originally a city defense team leader, but he was assassinated a few years ago because of Tong Lingfeng's involvement! He has a son named Xing Xuewen, who is now a team leader under Tong Lingfeng. For safety reasons, he usually lives in Tong's house and rarely goes home!"
So that's it! Li Yu finally understood why the door of Tong Lingfeng's house was closed!
"Firstly, Tong Lingfeng is the only relative Tong Lingfeng has in this world. Secondly, Xing Linhai died because of him. Therefore, Tong Lingfeng has a deep affection for Tong Lingfeng and takes good care of her! He will bring Xing Xuewen back to visit in a few days. But for some reason, they haven't been back for a long time recently!"
Dou Jinsuo continued.
"Oh?"
Li Yu couldn't help but be very confused! Why was this happening? Did Tong Lingfeng encounter something serious?
Little did he know that it was the tracking of Dou Jinsuo and others that aroused Tong Lingfeng's vigilance!
Li Yu couldn't help but bow his head and think! Tong Lingfeng has a deep affection for Tong Lingfeng, and he will definitely not stop visiting his sister for a long time. Even if he doesn't come, then Xing Xuewen will definitely come! He immediately said to Dou Jinsuo:
"Since we have found this place, we can just wait for him to show up! Then there is no need for us to continue following him! Withdraw your people! Just leave one or two people to monitor his whereabouts! Keep an eye on this place, and report to us as soon as Tong Lingfeng shows up!"
Dou Jinsuo nodded immediately and said:
"I will obey your command!"
Then he turned around and whispered something to Liu Hai, and Liu Hai turned and left.
Knowing that Tong Lingfeng had a younger sister, Li Yu felt much more at ease. He wanted to find out what was going on inside, but the door was tightly closed, leaving no gap!
But this is a good hunting ground! The tightly closed door is the best barrier to block the outsiders! He has already thought of a plan. That is to first try to enter this courtyard, control the people inside, wait for Tong Lingfeng to come!
However, if one wants to enter the courtyard without anyone noticing and control the people inside, then one must first know how many people are there and who they are.
Thinking of the servants who came out to buy things in the yard, Li Yu couldn't help but come up with a plan! He immediately pulled Dou Jinsuo over and whispered a few words in his ear. Dou Jinsuo nodded in agreement and turned around to make arrangements.
Wu Linger couldn't help but feel a little curious, and asked Li Yu what he had just whispered to Dou Jinsuo, but Li Yu smiled and didn't answer.
However, the servants of the Xing Mansion were very cautious even when they went out to purchase goods. They never let outsiders in, and the servants carried the goods themselves. According to Dou Jinsuo, most of the servants of the Xing Mansion usually went out to purchase goods once every two days. According to calculations, tomorrow morning would be the day when the servants went out to purchase goods, so Dou Jinsuo made arrangements in advance.
The housekeeper of the Xing Mansion was named Xing Wu, an old man who had followed Xing Linhai for many years. He never married and regarded the Xing family as his own home. He was worried that the servants would do something wrong during the purchase, so he always took a few servants to do it himself.
Early in the morning, he went out with his two friends as usual. Xing Wu had a hobby, which was to have a few drinks. But his wife, Tong Lingfeng, was very strict, so he dared not to stick around at home. Therefore, every time he went out, he would find a place to have a few drinks to satisfy his craving.
As usual, when they had finished shopping, Xing Wu walked slowly in front with his hands behind his back, while the two servants followed behind him, each carrying a load. They came to the door of a restaurant where he often drank, and after giving a few instructions to the two servants who had put down their loads, they walked into the restaurant in a square step.
The shopkeeper saw that it was a familiar customer and immediately greeted him with a smile! He shouted:
"Master Xing, you are here! Please take a seat!"
This restaurant is just a small restaurant. It can only accommodate five or six long tables at most. As for private rooms, they don't exist at all!
Xing Wu took a look at the restaurant and saw that it was already full, with only one table left near the door. He was a little surprised! Usually, there were few people eating in this restaurant. What happened today? He immediately wanted to turn around and leave, and find another restaurant.
Xing Wu often drank secretly, so he developed a habit of being sneaky. Every time he went to this restaurant, he always liked to sit in the back seat, hoping that others would not see him.
Business people rarely let the business slip away, so he immediately stepped forward and grabbed Xing Wu, asking in confusion:
"My Lord Xing! Why are you leaving when all is well? If I have failed you, just let me know!"
Xing Wu glanced at the innermost table intentionally or unintentionally, and just smiled and shook his head.
The shopkeeper still doesn't understand? But, he can't afford to offend these people! They are all small hooligans in this area! Their meal is probably in vain! Originally, I thought that Xing Wu could just help me with the subsidy, but I didn't expect that he insisted on leaving!
Just when the shopkeeper was about to give up, a guy with a face full of flesh came in with three or four people! He seemed stunned when he saw Xing Wu! Then he smiled and said:
"It's Old Xing! You've finished eating, are you ready to leave?"
Xing Wu looked up and found that it was the butcher from a shop he often visited. His surname was Zhong, but he could not remember his name clearly.
The shopkeeper saw it and said hurriedly:
"No way, Shopkeeper Zhong, didn't Master Xing just arrive too?"
Upon hearing this, Butcher Zhong immediately pulled Xing Wu to sit at the table near the door without saying anything, and said with a smile:
"That's perfect! Old Xing always comes to my butcher shop, and I don't know how to thank him. So today I'll be the host, and we can have a few drinks!"
Xing Wu wanted to leave, but when he heard that Butcher Zhong was inviting him to dinner, he couldn't resist the temptation and sat down. Butcher Zhong looked up and saw the two young men in front of the door, so he ran out and pulled them in.
Xing Wu usually drinks, so he naturally wouldn't pay for the two young men out of his own pocket. But since Zhong the butcher was treating them today, he didn't stop them and let them sit down uncomfortably.
In this way, Butcher Zhong, the four people who came with him, Xing Wu and the two Xiao Si filled up the table.
The butcher Zhong immediately shouted:
"Boss! Bring me some good wine and delicious food. Let me treat Old Xing and the two young men to a good feast today!"
The hooligans sitting in the inner seats couldn't help but stand up when they heard that person. But when they saw that the man was Zhong the Butcher, they sat down again!
As the saying goes, the arrogant are afraid of the stupid, and the stupid are afraid of the desperate! This Zhong the Butcher is a scoundrel! He is a desperate man! They can bully the honest people, but when they meet him, they can only give in!
When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately smiled and shouted:
"Okay! Please wait a moment, I'll be there soon!"
