Chapter 3 Tasha Xing
Snowflakes fluttered in the sky again, fluttering and flying all over the sky. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe streets, which had only been cleaned by street sweepers in the morning, had become snow-white again.
Luo Jinyan quietly opened the curtain of the car and looked at Cui Qi, who was driving the car in front of him.
No, not at all.
Although his father Luo Shao is only a small official, he is the only heir of the Luo family's third room, and with the marriage of his mother Li, their family has never lacked silver. From childhood to adulthood, whether in Jiangxi or in Xingtang, Luo Shao has never treated his daughter badly in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
The servants of the house saw that the old man cherished the young lady so much, and they did not dare to snub the disabled young lady.
Cui Qi said that his father used to drive a car for the old lady, and his son inherited his father's business, so it would not be surprising if he was also a handlebar type.
But the strange thing is that Manager Lin will never send just a handlebar to pick up Luo Jinyan.
If Luo Shao knew, he would definitely scold him.
What's more, Manager Lin is the nursing brother of Luo Jinyan's biological mother Li, and if Luo Jinyan marries in the future, even if Manager Lin can't follow, he will let his son be Luo Jinyan's companion. Luo Jinyan was neglected, and Manager Lin would have no face.
Therefore, even if he was in a hurry to go to the ministry, Manager Lin would not be negligent enough to let only one handlebar pick up Luo Jinyan.
The corners of Luo Jinyan's mouth curled slightly, she is such a little mute, the only use is to extort a sum of money from her father.
Luo Shao's family is rich, and not many people outside know about it, but the people in Changping Zhuangzi definitely know.
Since this Cui Qi can speak the Tao, he thinks he is a person in Changping Zhuangzi.
Luo Jinyan turned his head to look at Xia Zhi, only to find that Xia Zhi was clenching his fists, the corners of his mouth were tense, and he was staring at Cui Qi's back.
The summer solstice should have been alerted.
But Xia Zhi is only a twelve-year-old girl, what can she do?
The twelve-year-old maid and the seven-year-old mute lady, in the eyes of many people, may be fish in front of the knife.
Luo Jinyan reached out to hold Xia Zhi's wrist, shook his head at her, and signaled her to be calm.
Three years ago, Luo Shao was still working in Pengze County, Jiujiang Prefecture, Jiangxi, and it was also such a winter and snow weather, four-year-old Luo Jinyan was infected with wind cold, and he had a high fever that did not go away, and he didn't even breathe for a while.
Luo Shao first lost his wife, and now he is about to lose his beloved daughter, he is so distraught that he runs to the mountain temple in the snow like a woman to pray for his daughter. I don't know if it was his prayer that touched the mountain god, or Luo Jinyan's life should not be broken, the next morning, Luo Jinyan's fever subsided, but from then on, she could no longer speak like before.
She is not mute, but she is no different from mute.
It is precisely because Luo Jinyan is not good at speaking that the maids Luo Shao selected for his daughter are all as careful as sharp teeth, he invited Luo Jinyan to Xixi, and the maids also followed the literacy and hyphenation.
Xia Zhi's clenched fist finally let go, Luo Jinyan still grabbed her wrist with one hand, but the other hand quickly wrote the word "Li" in her palm.
Xia Zhi hesitated for a moment, and suddenly lifted the curtain and shouted to Cui Qi: "Which way are you going, the subordinate department is not here, you are wrong." ”
Since Chief Manager Lin asked him to pick up Luo Jinyan first, it must be to meet near the Yamen of the subordinate department.
Unlike Luo Jinyan, who was in the capital but never left the Forbidden City in his previous life, Xia Zhi was the first time to come to the capital. She didn't know where the subordinate yamen was, she just listened to Luo Jinyan and had the courage to give it a try.
Cui Qi became impatient, he turned his head and said: "How could I go wrong, the snow road is slippery, I am taking a shortcut, the weather is cold, don't lift the curtain, lest it freeze Miss." ”
Luo Jinyan pointed to the car curtain and made a "put" mouth shape at the summer solstice.
Xia Zhi had no choice but to put down the curtain angrily, and was about to mumble a few words in a low voice, Luo Jinyan made a silent gesture to her, and she hurriedly swallowed what she was going to say.
The corners of Luo Jinyan's mouth turned up slightly, which made Xia Zhi very happy, and the young lady could still laugh, which meant that the situation was not as dangerous as she imagined.
Xia Zhi herself didn't understand, she was obviously a few years older than the young lady, but she always felt that this young lady, who was only seven years old, was her backbone.
Luo Jinyan lifted the curtain on the car window and looked out the window, the snow was getting heavier and heavier, the road was no longer as wide as it was just now, and the buildings on both sides were sparse and low.
This is by no means the way to the Yamen of the Six Ministries, but it looks like it is about to leave the city.
This Cui Qi is definitely not fighting alone, he is just worried that there are many people in the city, and it will be troublesome if the two little girls shout and attract onlookers.
But going out of town is different.
His accomplices must be waiting outside the city.
Thinking of this, Luo Jinyan pointed to the snack box that had not yet been opened, and quickly wrote the word "pretending to be sick" in the palm of Xia Zhi's hand.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and snowflakes the size of copper coins were flying all over the sky and falling on the eyelashes for a long time. Cui Qi brushed the snow flakes off his face with his sleeves, and scolded in his heart: God is really fucking not beautiful, and he can't hurry up with such a big snow.
Suddenly, he heard an exclamation from the carriage behind him, followed by a sharp cry from the little girl: "Miss, Miss, what's wrong with you, don't scare the slave, wake up quickly!"
What a mess!
Cui Qi scolded hatefully, and the little girl like a jade doll appeared in front of him.
The little mute can't have an accident, otherwise the silver in his hand will be lost.
The cry of the girl in the carriage was even louder, and through the curtain, Cui Qi asked in a loud voice, "What's wrong?"
"It's this snack, it must be a snack, the young lady only ate half of it and fainted, you call the doctor." The girl's voice was terrified.
Call the doctor?
Cui Qi looked around, only a few old-dressed and burden-carrying laborers were walking in the snow, their footprints were soon covered by snowflakes, and the avenue leading to the city gate was deserted.
Cui Qi breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, there were few pedestrians on the road on a snowy day, otherwise the girl's crying like this would definitely attract people to stop.
But in any case, nothing could happen to that little mute.
He lowered the whip in his hand and let the mule cart move slowly, and he turned to pull the curtain and look at the small carriage.
Probably because of the snowy weather, the roof is covered with tarpaulin, and the interior of the carriage is even darker.
Cui Qi's eyes had just seen the white and dazzling snow, and at this time, he couldn't adapt to the dimness in front of him for a while, and he only felt that his eyes were black and he couldn't see anything.
He asked, "What's wrong with Miss?"
The girl whimpered and said, "Brother Cui, call the doctor quickly, Miss is delicate and can't eat ordinary things, this Luo family is not well-intentioned, it is difficult for the master to spend fifty taels of silver to give them gifts, and they actually harm Miss like this." ”
Cui Qi frowned, the little girl didn't know the severity, really this little mute is the queen princess, the Luo family is idle and has nothing to do to harm her, I think it's just that the dim sum is not clean, and the little mute is weak, but it's not a good thing to pass out, you still have to see it with your own eyes,
He said, "Let me see first, maybe it's stuck in my throat." ”
As he spoke, he entered the carriage, and the girl exclaimed, "You can't come in, it's not in order." ”
Cui Qi's eyes were even darker, he couldn't see anything, he could only distinguish by his voice, and he felt that the girl seemed to be in front of him, he scolded: "Miss is still so young, what's not in order, in case she has three long and two short, I will sell you to ......"
Before the words fell, a strange fragrance came to his face, and he fell down without saying a word.
