On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Liang Meng returned home, and a large table of wine and food was set up in the main hall to greet his uncle into the door.

Liang Zitong and Liang Miao were turned away, since they broke off their relationship, even if they dared to come to the door with a cheeky face, Liang Baida no longer wanted to associate with his in-laws who tended to be inflammatory.

As soon as the New Year passed, Liang Sanye set up a banquet with wine everywhere. Wan Le Zhai bore the brunt of earning the first pot of gold of the New Year, and Li Shoucai, the owner, also took into account the requirements of the old customers and personally accompanied the wine and enjoyed the fun.

On the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, Chen Qing sent two carts of vegetables as requested, accepted two hundred taels of silver and walked towards Liang Ji with a smile.

The streets are lit up all over the streets, ready to show off their heads at tomorrow night's lantern festival, and Leung Kee is no exception, in addition to various lantern riddles, there are also different kinds of special color heads.

Coming out of Liang Ji, Chen Qing went to the grocery store, and yesterday he got a rattle, and Yuan Yuan liked it very much. Thinking of his son's overlord temperament, he still hurriedly bought one, and the province saw the sky and rushed to play.

A rattle costs three dollars of silver, but Chen Qing is distressed enough. The thrifty character cultivated since childhood can never be changed overnight, even if the current life is good, the silver must be saved.

Passing by the spice shop when he went out, thinking that the sandalwood in Zijun's study should be changed, Chen Qing's footsteps paused slightly, and after thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and stepped in.

was bargaining with the boss, and suddenly heard a coquettish shout on the left, "Hmph~ It's really unlucky!"

"Qing'er, don't be rude" Liu Yingying scolded in a low voice, and bowed to Chen Qing, "Yingying is so polite"

Chen Qing saw that it was Liu Yingying, and was slightly surprised, and hurriedly took two steps forward to talk, "I haven't seen you for a long time, the girl is fine?......

Qing'er pulled down her face and muttered, "Why haven't you seen me for a long time?"

Chen Qing was poked in a sore foot, and his face couldn't help but be a little embarrassed. I promised to go to the appointment but missed it for some reason, and now no matter how much I explain, it is redundant, so I have to nod and respond, "It's Chen Qingli's poor counting, and Miss Qing'er should blame it."

Liu Yingying stroked her sideburns and laughed at herself, "It's a slave family, the status is low, don't blame the son for refusing to go to the appointment...... It is indeed difficult for Yingying to be strong."

Chen Qing hurriedly explained, "It's really because of illness, Zijun also thought that my cold had not healed, so he pushed the invitation"

Liu Yingying was inevitably surprised: "I don't know what is the relationship between Gongzi and Liang Sanye?

Chen Qing scratched his ears and whispered a slightly shy voice, "Uh...... It's a husband ......."

It's no wonder that Chen Qing is so embarrassed, it is the first time to admit the relationship between the two in front of outsiders, and in the face of the object of his heart, he will be able to grit his teeth and admit that he is a species.

"Huh?" Qing'er was the first to cry out in surprise, glanced at Chen Qing up and down, and scolded dissatisfiedly, "You don't want to have anything to do with my sister, why do you have to tell such a big lie?"

Liu Yingying was surprised in her heart, but looking at Chen Qing's awkward posture, after thinking about it, she couldn't help but laugh secretly, "Qing'er, how can this be a lie......?" Xu is that we judge people by their appearance, and mistakenly take the husband as Zhou Lang......"

Chen Qing waved his hand with a slight face, "Ahem...... Say no more......"

Seeing that he looked ashamed to admit it, Qing'er didn't care about the slight misunderstanding before, and talked about it again after a few jokes.

This is indeed not a place to talk, Chen Qing did not tie a streamer, and he was afraid of affecting his reputation after being entangled with prostitutes for a long time, so he proposed to go to the teahouse for a small gathering instead.

Chen Qing didn't want to stay here and be watched, so he left first after dropping a tael of silver.

After talking about the teahouse, Chen Qing felt a little relieved to learn that Liu Yingying was able to preserve her reputation through herself.

Qing'er saw that he didn't seem to be a fake, and suddenly felt that this person didn't look so annoying.

Thinking that this person not only didn't care about their deliberate planting, but also really thought about her sister, Qing'er got up and knelt down to apologize, "Because the situation is dangerous, I have to make this decision, Brother Chen can think about my sister like this, which really makes Qing'er ashamed"

Chen Qing pulled her up, shook his head and sighed, "It's a pity that it's too late now, if you had known earlier......"

Providence makes people, Liu Yingying secretly wept and said, "This is all fate...... Yingying is already grateful to Dade if she can save her reputation, how dare she think about it again?"

Chen Qing felt extremely uncomfortable when he heard this, he could have helped her......

Such a beautiful woman is now reduced to a prostitute who everyone can buy * spring at will, which makes Chen Qing feel a little guilty in his heart, if he can be rescued as soon as possible, maybe he can avoid today's situation.

Qing'er whispered with tears on her face, "At the beginning, I also thought that my sister could take advantage of this to be good, but she didn't listen...... I don't want to drag you down, but now I know that even if I succeed, I can't marry my sister as your husband...... It's all to blame for our miserable lives, who can blame us for being abused like this?"

Chen Qing couldn't see a woman crying the most, and the two people who cried into tears in front of him had such a pitiful background, how could he sit idly by?

"If you still want to be good, Chen Qing is willing to serve the girl" Chen Qing clenched his fists and said in a deep voice. It's too late to do this, but for the sake of the future, you still have to leave the fireworks land as soon as possible.

Liu Yingying laughed miserably, shook her head and said, "Brother Chen has this heart, so it will not be in vain Yingying's admiration for a while, but there is no need to bother now, my sisters have been redeemed by Zhou Lang to be small, and they will leave immediately next month."

"But a beloved?" Chen Qing asked uneasily.

Qing'er wiped away her tears and answered with a smile, "Who can come to the brothel to have fun? As long as we can leave this place, even if we die in a foreign land, we will be satisfied."

Chen Qing frowned, and didn't wait to persuade again, Liu Yingying hesitated for a long time before begging, "It doesn't matter if we're doing well, it's just ...... I have one thing to do now......"

"Girl, it's okay to talk about it, as long as I can do it, I will definitely not refuse" They are also fateful, if it weren't for Liang Zijun's interference, the friendship must be more than that. Now seeing that she has a request for help, Chen Qing also wants to help one or two on her behalf.

Liu Yingying and Qing'er looked at each other and smiled, paid off the tea and led Chen Qing towards a small courtyard.

Entering the courtyard, Liu Yingying called out two and a half big babies and said, "Brother Lao Chen will take care of it, whether it is to be a slave or a child, as long as it is not sold as a prostitute, Yingying has nothing else to ask for."

Two and a half children, a boy and a girl, are extremely good-looking. Not to mention that he looks good, he can see that he is from a big family, and I don't know what difficulties he suffered this time to fall into slavery.

Chen Qing answered the matter after a little inquiry.

Knowing that the two of them were abducted and sold on the way to escape, Liu Yingying happened to pass by, so she bought them out of her own pocket and secretly settled in this remote courtyard.

Now that the two of them were about to set off, they didn't dare to entrust them to the official workshop to take care of, so they had to beg Chen Qing to accept them.

The fifteen-year-old boy is the son of a housekeeper, and he was confessed by his father on his deathbed that it was necessary to keep the only bloodline of the owner, and at the beginning of the sale, he refused to let the young lady become a prostitute to pick up customers anyway.

Chen Qingguan was loyal, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, and promised to settle it properly. The boy knelt down and thanked Chen Qing first, and then kowtowed to Liu Yingying and thanked him, "Ni Zhong has thanked his benefactor, if he meets again in the future, he will definitely be broken to repay the grace of redemption."

"Hurry up, I don't want to have a few more people like my sister" Liu Yingying pulled Ni Zhong up, and said to the reluctant girl, "Although you are master and servant, you still need to support each other in the future, don't play the young lady's temperament to call him again"

The girl bit her lower lip and stomped her little foot, "Sister laughed at me again, thanks to Ni Zhong's support along the way, I didn't die in a foreign land, I know how good he is to me......"

Liu Yingying laughed in a low voice, "If you grow up, if you don't have a good match, why don't you marry him?"

"I don't want to ......" the thirteen-year-old girl has just learned love, and she will hide in the house with her little face to hide her shame.

Ni Zhong honestly refused, "I am a subordinate, how dare I marry the master's wife?"

"You fool!" Qing'er stepped forward and screwed it hard, carrying people's ears to teach a lesson, "Now that you are both slaves, how can you still be distinguished from dignity and inferiority?"

"A servant for one day, a slave for life, Daddy confessed on his deathbed......" Ni Zhong refused in a deep voice.

"Oops~ This tendon is still twisted to the end, when your young lady remarries someone else, there is a time when you cry......" Qing'er reminded secretly.

The girl hiding in the house threw out a tea bowl and scolded angrily, "I won't marry!

Ni Zhong saw that the tea bowl was broken, and knelt in front of Liu Yingying to take the blame, "It's Ni Zhong's fault, Miss is pampered and doesn't know how to be a slave, so if you want to be punished, you will be punished......."

"Who wants you to take the blame!" the girl ran out to pick up the pieces, and for a moment she didn't know how to compensate, so she begged for mercy for the first time with red eyes like a slave who had made a mistake, "beg for ...... Ask my sister for punishment"

"Forget it, it's just a tea bowl, and it's not enough to compete for punishment......" Liu Yingying saw Ni Zhong kneeling beside him with an anxious face, and took the opportunity to teach, "In the future, can you know that you can't be spilled by your temperament?" If you change the master's family, you will naturally be punished if you make a mistake, not to mention a tea bowl, even if you say the wrong word, you will be beaten, and learn more from Ni Zhong in the future, so as not to cause trouble in the future."

Now she is no longer a high-ranking rich lady, she is also a slave, and Ni Zhong will not be able to accept it for her every time in the future, and the girl will also know the severity, and she will kowtow like a slave and bow in response, "The slave knows her mistakes"

Chen Qing watched for a while, and secretly admired that this girl knows how to advance and retreat, even if it coincides with family changes, she can recognize the current situation as soon as possible, and she must be able to save her life in the future.

Coming out of the small courtyard, Chen Qing didn't think about how to settle the two of them for a while, so he had to lead the people to the old mansion to live temporarily.

If you send it to the cloth workshop to work, you have to ask Zijun first, and you have to explain it to your family no matter what you say.

Chen Qing thought that it was not a big deal, so he said goodbye to Liu Yingying and went home.

When Liang Zijun came back in the evening, Chen Qing talked about today's events.

Now that Chen Qing is in charge, he doesn't need his consent to accept two subordinates in private, but because Liang Zijun is at home, he naturally has to inform this serious owner about the affairs of the cloth workshop.

It's no wonder that Chen Qing didn't mention that Liu Yingying was okay, as soon as he said that this was Liu Yingying's request, Liang Zijun immediately blew up the temple.

"The female baby was sent to learn embroidery, and the male baby followed Liu Boxue to manage the accounts, and when they become talents in the future, what's wrong with two more family members in the cloth workshop to take care of?" Chen Qing looked at Liang Zijun who was furious in confusion.

"Hmph~ You dare to accept people who come from the wrong way?" Liang Zijun glared angrily.

"What is the wrong way? I have accepted the deed of sale, do you have to feel at ease to find someone to check the details?" Chen Qing persuaded in a calm tone.

"I don't care! As long as you have something to do with the fireworks woman, you can't do it! What do you think the Liang family is where cats and dogs can enter the door?" Liang Zijun turned his head away and began to be quite unreasonable.

Chen Qing felt stuffy in his chest, why did he get mad as soon as he pulled Liu Yingying? For the sake of the two dolls, Chen Qing explained halfway loudly, and then he had to emphasize in a hard voice: "I have settled the people, and you are not allowed to send them to the cloth workshop, then I will find another land to settle down!"

"You dare!" Liang Zijun got up and strode to Chen Qing, and when he pressed the person, he shouted with a mouth full of wine, "I dare not listen to my master's words, it's against you!"

"Liang Zijun, don't be embarrassed! Why did you promise me before? Now you want to use your identity to press me?" Chen Qing's heart twitched slightly, this person didn't treat him as a lover who could be treated as equals.

Liang Zijun drank a little wine, but it was far from drunk, rubbed the corners of his sore forehead, and begged for mercy...... But if this thing doesn't work, it won't work, don't use the topic to play ......"

Chen Qing put aside the dog, sat up and refused to give in, "You explain clearly why you can't do it first"

"Why else? That Liu Yingying is a fireworks woman, a year ago, she recruited a husband, and she has already become a remnant of flowers and willows ridden by thousands of people, if the wind spreads, it will not be good for the Liang family or the cloth workshop!" Liang Zijun got up and hugged his daughter-in-law, and he knew that he was moved by emotion.

Chen Qing's heart jumped, and he shook off Liang Zijun's arm and accused coldly, "You already knew about the listing?"

"Cut ~ Guanfang's top card to open * bud to pick up customers, that is a major event in Qingping County...... But Ye didn't go, such a dirty realm, Ye is so clean and self-loving, he disdains to mix with ......" Liang Zijun was about to boast that he had not been contaminated, but he saw that his daughter-in-law had already glared at him with an angry face, "Why didn't you tell me?"

Liang Zijun's face was slightly cold, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked coldly, "Why do you want to know?"

"Of course I want to redeem her...... Chen Qing didn't finish speaking, he saw Liang Zijun pulling him by the collar like crazy and reprimanded, "I knew you were still thinking about that slut! What? Now that you admit it? Do you still want to marry and bring a green hat to the master?"

"Liang Zijun, you don't have any reason to make trouble! Miss Yingying has a poor background, if she can help her, why do you stand by and watch? Which of my daughter's family doesn't want to be innocent?" Chen Qing couldn't break Liang Zijun's fist, so he could only frown and emphasize.

"Phew~ What a girl Yingying! It's a* in a! Everyone wants to be saved, can you save it? How can you really think that you are the incarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva? Her life should be like this, and her father and mother should be blamed for selling her to a brothel!" Liang Zijun disdains such a sanctimonious appearance, there are few prostitutes in the world, if everyone is like Chen Qing, how can there be a scene of brothels?

"At least the people around me, I won't see death without saving ......" Chen Qing didn't expect Liang Zijun to be such an indifferent person, and looked at him with a little disappointment.

"Is she dead? You can't help but think too highly of her, and now that you're sending her to me, she's enjoying it, right? If she really loves herself as clean and self-loving as you said, she would have been looking for death and life a long time ago, how can she survive a year and a half?" Liang Zijun sneered, not wanting to quarrel with his daughter-in-law because of an outsider.

Liang Zijun gave up, but Chen Qing's heart suddenly became angry: "If one day I am also in the red dust, can you be as indifferent as today......?" I guess I knew I was a prostitute in Qinglou early on, and I didn't want to have anything to do with me at all......"

Chen Qingqi's hands and feet trembled slightly, and he sarcastically said without words, and Liang Zijun roared loudly: "Say it eight hundred times! Don't compare yourself with a prostitute! She is her, you are you! Don't blame me for talking nonsense, I really don't care about the relationship between husband and wife!"

"I really didn't expect you to be such an indifferent person, Liang Zijun, I'm really disappointed in you" Chen Qing pursed the corners of his mouth, and got up and went out after stubbornly speaking.

"Huh...... I think you just have too much sympathy to give to others!" Liang Zijun sneered, lying on his back on the bed and grinding his teeth.

Chen Qing was speechless when he was taught a lesson, but he still didn't agree with such remarks in his heart, no matter whether it was Liu Yingying who was in trouble or not, once there was an intersection, it would be difficult for ordinary people to ignore it.

The Cold War lasted until three days later, and Liang Zijun sued for peace several times but was avoided by Chen Qing under the pretext of excuses, which provoked Liang Sanye to be restless, and when he was angry, he made a sarcastic voice, "What you said is so righteous and awe-inspiring, I think you just can't let go of that Liu Yingying!"

Chen Qing was already angry, and when he heard him messing around like this, he was angry, "You think everyone is as heartless as you?"

"Don't you blame me for not telling you beforehand? hehe...... I'm not afraid to tell you~ I just don't want you to save that old man! How do you move? You bite me?" Liang Zijun was not afraid of death, and deliberately poked him in the heart, and the more Chen Qing was angry, the more relieved he became.

Once the big vinegar bucket started to soar, it was really sour, and the entire Liang family's mansion was smoky with the vinegar smell of the two of them.

It's not the first time that the two of them have made such a fuss, they can reconcile in a few days, and the elders will make a fuss with them.

Chen Qing was most angry not that Liang Zijun stood by and watched, but deliberately concealed this, what is the most important thing between husband and wife?

Liang Zijun doesn't trust him, which is what makes Chen Qing the most angry.

knew that he was about to go out, but he couldn't pull his face to ask for peace, in the end, Chen Qing was still awkward. He also knew that most of the reason why Liang Zijun was angry was because he was jealous, but he was an old husband and wife, so why did he make such a fuss for the peach blossom debt before? Even taking in two homeless dolls was so immature.

Liang Zijun has always been indifferent to people and things other than his family, Chen Qing has long understood this, and he is not too dissatisfied with this.

Just like he said, there are many poor people in the world, how can he save them? But when he bumps into the person in front of him, why can't he lend a helping hand if he has the conditions? Besides, he didn't go to save Liu Yingying, but just took care of the two dolls.
