Chapter 69: Taking a Wife

Early the next morning, Granny Hua sent a few stones to everyone to make breakfast, just like yesterday.

Tang Xiaobai took the tray and thanked her, and asked her, "I don't know when the Miss Lin family that my mother-in-law said yesterday died?"

Granny Hua folded her fingers and calculated, "It's been ten years since this calculation." ”

Decade.

That kid should have been fourteen years old, too.

Tang Xiaobai asked again, "Does the mother-in-law know where the beggars in this village are?"

Granny Hua sighed, "Beggars, naturally everywhere, everywhere ......"

"It's all Patrick Locke's children... Big and small...... I can't save it......" she said quietly.

Tang Xiaobai remembered that when he went out yesterday, he seemed to see many children sitting on the street corner in tattered clothes, and he didn't think that so many children were beggars, but he only felt that it was probably caused by the poverty of the family, and now he thinks that it is those children who were abandoned by Luo Peide.

Now that the approximate range has been determined, Luo Hai is not difficult to find.

After the three of them sent off Granny Hua, they didn't delay any longer, and soon left the inn all the way to find the group of little beggars on the street yesterday.

Nansui was afraid that he would be wary of asking those children directly, so he bought steamed buns on the road first, and then walked up to the group of yellow-skinned children on the street, handed the steamed buns forward, and asked softly, "Do you have a boy named Luo Hai here?"

The group of children seemed to be a little afraid of her, and only looked at the steamed bun in Nansui's hand and swallowed saliva, but no one reached out to take it.

"Why don't you take it? It's for you. Nansui looked at them strangely, and sent the steamed bun in his hand forward.

The group of children saw her go further, but suddenly they retreated in more and more fright, as if Nansui was some kind of man-eating flood beast, and finally shouted at some point, and the little beggars instantly coaxed them all to run.

Nansui hurriedly shouted at their backs, "Hey, what are you running for steamed buns?"

But no child responded to her.

The steamed buns were not delivered, and no one asked. Nan Sui failed to succeed in his apprenticeship, and returned to Tang Xiaobai's side quite frustrated.

Why do you obviously see that they are hungry and skinny, and give them steamed buns but don't accept them?

Just when Nansui was at a loss, he saw that a seven- or eight-year-old girl who had run away before actually turned back at this time, looked at everyone from a distance for a while, and then moved over slowly and stretched out her hand to Nansui.

"Steamed buns. She whispered, looking dumbfounded, and repeated, "Steamed buns." ”

Nan Sui hurriedly handed over the steamed bun happily.

The little girl took the steamed bun and immediately devoured it, her mouth bulging, and she stared at Nansui vigilantly, as if she was afraid that she would snatch the steamed bun back.

Nansui looked at her distressedly and said, "You slow down, no one will rob you." Bian wanted to hand her the kettle in his hand.

When the little girl saw her stretching out her hand, she thought she was going to grab the steamed buns, and she was in a hurry to swallow all the steamed buns in her mouth, but she choked on her throat when she didn't want to, and her face turned red after a while.

Nan Sui hurriedly went to smooth her back, fed her some water from the kettle, and tossed back and forth for a while, before the girl gradually eased up, coughing with tears in her eyes, panting for breath.

Her eyes were dumbfounded, and she didn't say thank you, she just looked at the remaining steamed buns in Nansui's hand, and reached forward again to ask for them, "Steamed buns." ”

Nansui hurriedly gave her all the remaining four steamed buns in her hand.

The little girl took the steamed bun into her arms and patted it, then she wiped her mouth with satisfaction, raised her legs and was about to leave.

Nansui hurriedly grabbed her and tried to ask her about Luo Hai's whereabouts.

Unexpectedly, the girl was pulled by this, and jumped up in fright, turned around and stared at Nansui in horror, and screamed a few times, and Nansui was so frightened that Nansui's hand was loosened. The girl swooped into the narrow and curvy alley like a nimble squirrel in an instant, and disappeared in the next second.

Nansui watched her run away again, sighing heavily, her expression full of frustration.

"Don't be discouraged", Jing Yu patted her on the shoulder and persuaded, "Anyway, there is a way." ”

Nansui hummed, and just cheered up and was about to buy some steamed buns to continue looking for the little beggar, but he heard a festive sound of blowing at the end of the road, so he looked for the sound.

The sound became louder and louder, coming in their direction, and the people on the side of the road also probed their heads to look at the sound when they heard it, looking curious.

Sure enough, soon a group of people dressed in festive red clothes came along the road carrying a sedan chair.

Nansui couldn't help but ask a tall but thin man next to him about the reason, the man sighed, waved his hand and said, "It's the rich man Luo marrying a wife again." ”

Another short, stocky and rich man who was standing close to him was watching with his hands folded, but shook his head when he heard this, "This time is different. ”

The bamboo pole man was dismissive, "What's the difference? I think it's all the same." ”

The rich man snorted, "Different is different." ”

The tall and thin man chased after him, "Then you can tell me what's different." ”

The short and fat man snorted, "I won't say it." ”

After arguing and arguing, the two fought, and after a while they rolled on the ground and tore each other apart.

Nan Sui looked blankly at the two people who suddenly got into a fight because of a problem of their own, and subconsciously leaned towards Tang Xiaobai's side.

The welcoming team was still blowing forward, Tang Xiaobai and the three of them stood in the crowd and watched, and it happened that a strong wind blew, lifting the curtain of the sedan chair in an instant, and also lifting the corner of the woman's red hijab.

The woman under the hijab has red lips and white skin, and she can tell that she is a beauty just by looking at the lower half of her face.

It's a pity......

Tang Xiaobai's eyes were gloomy.

She was going to go to Luo's Mansion for a trip.

Jing Yu also saw the scene just now, knew her intentions, and took the initiative to say without waiting for Tang Xiaobai to speak, "You go, let's go and go on, find Luo Hai." After thinking about it, he was not at ease and advised, "Definitely, add more, be careful." ”

......

The crowd carrying the sedan chair made a big fuss all the way, and naturally there were people who were chasing after the good things to see it.

Tang Xiaobai flowed with the crowd all the way, but he didn't seem to be eye-catching.

However, after walking to the door of Luo's mansion, the sedan chair did not stop according to the normal marriage process, and the legendary Luo Peide did not come out to pick up the relatives, and the sedan chair and the welcoming team went straight into the mansion.

Disgruntled people in the crowd whispered, "Why didn't the bride come out this time?" ”

Someone else lowered his voice and whispered, "Don't ask, it's the ...... of the Su family."

The previous person sighed, with a shocked face, "The Su family's ...... isn't that"

Before the two finished speaking, they saw the doorkeeper Ding waving his stick with an angry face and stepped forward to drive people away, "Let's go, don't pestle here." ”

Given to the Luo family's obscenity, the onlookers naturally did not dare to continue to stay under the sticks, and the affairs of other people's families were in the end the affairs of other people's families, and the people soon dispersed one after another.

Tang Xiaobai hid in the crowd and left together, but halfway through walking, she suddenly turned around, she groped to find a place with few people on the east wall of Luo's Mansion, glanced left and right, and only after making sure it was safe did she quickly turn over and jump in.
