"Stop the car!" The woman in the sedan chair shouted, she looked at the little leaf standing on the side of the road crying, stunned for a long time without words, the daughter-in-law with her saw this, and said: "Auntie, the hour is not early, it's time to go home." ”

But the woman was unmoved, and said to her daughter-in-law, "Go and call the little girl, and I will ask her why she is crying." ”

The daughter-in-law knew that their aunt was most pitiful to the poor and the weak, and when she saw that the little girl was pitiful, she was moved with compassion, and she said yes, and walked towards the crowd.

The woman sitting in the sedan chair looked at the crowd gathering, her thoughts were confused for a while, and she gradually recalled the past ten years ago.

The so-called karma is destined, this woman is Gu Sanniang's second sister who was sold more than ten years ago, since she left Xiaogang Village, all the way to Tongcheng, soon, there is a rich family to buy people, Gu Erniang entered the house to be a rough girl, thinking that it was her own creation, once, she had no intention of being favored by the guests from the house, the guests were about to ask her to be a concubine, Gu Sanniang has since been out of the status of slavery, and has been a half master seriously.

Speaking of the distinguished guest who asked her to be a concubine, it was Xue Yongzhou, the current assassin of the history, at that time Xue Yongzhou was just a small general sentence, maybe it was Gu Erniang's life to prosper him, since accepting her as a concubine, Xue Yongzhou has been promoted again and again, and three years ago he was an official to the assassin history, and since then, Xue Yongzhou has become more and more fond of Gu Erniang.

Five years ago, Mrs. Xue went to the immortal, only Gu Erniang and the other two aunts were left in the Xue Mansion, this Thorn Shi was nearly sixty years old, he had married Mrs. Chang before, and Mrs. Chang had also continued after her death, since the death of Mrs. Xue, he guarded a few concubine rooms to live, as for the affairs of the Xue Mansion, only handed over to the eldest daughter-in-law to take care of, the only regret is that Gu Erniang has been in the house for many years, and has never added a man and a half woman, in the past two years, Xue Yongzhou's body is not as strong as before, Gu Erniang gradually faded this thought, she is kind, and Xue Yongzhou favors, Grandma Xue, who is in charge of the house, eats and drinks deliciously and offers her as a bodhisattva, because her life in the house is more comfortable than those grandmothers in the younger generation.

In the past ten years, Gu Erniang has been stationed in many places with Xue Yongzhou, and it was not until three years ago that she moved back to Tongcheng, when Mrs. Xue had passed away, Gu Erniang had no one to restrain her, so she sent someone back to her hometown to find relatives, who knew that the person who went came back to tell her that her eldest sister had been dead for seven or eight years, and the third sister's husband was kicked out of her mother-in-law's house after her death, and now I don't know whether she remarried or became a beggar woman.

When Gu Erniang learned this, she cried bitterly, but she hated that she hadn't gone to look for them earlier, today, she passed by here, and she didn't intend to see this little girl's face, which was seven or eight points similar to her third sister, which inevitably aroused her sadness.

Just as she was losing her mind, the former daughter-in-law came to reply, and she said, "Mrs. Auntie, the little girl refuses to come, saying that she wants to guard her brother." ”

After Gu Erniang heard this, she was about to get off the sedan chair, but her daughter-in-law hurriedly stopped her and said, "Mrs. Third Aunt, this can't be helped, people come and go on the street, so that others can see that it is not in accordance with the rules." ”

Gu Erniang hesitated for a moment, she was about to sit back, and she heard the little girl's cry in her ears, which made her heart tighten, so Gu Erniang turned her heart and said, "Help me down." ”

The people who were waiting around her saw that she insisted on this, so they had to help her off the sedan chair according to her words, and a few close-fitting maids escorted her to the front, after Gu Erniang approached, she carefully looked at Xiao Yezi's eyebrows and eyes, but the more she looked at it, the more she looked like it, but this child was slightly whiter and fatter than her third sister, although the two children were not dressed in silk and satin, but their clothes were neat and clean, and the little brother lying on the ground still had a long-life lock around his neck, and it seemed that he definitely didn't want children from poor families.

She asked, "Little girl, what is your name, why don't you see the adults in the family?" ”

Xiao Yezi looked at the kind woman in front of her, and inexplicably felt very kind, as if she had seen it somewhere, she wiped a handful of tears and replied: "My mother called the bad guys to arrest her, and she was locked up in prison at this time." ”

Gu Erniang came to her senses, no wonder there were only two children left on the streets, and she asked again: "What about your father, why was your mother arrested?" ”

Xiao Yezi paused and said: "Daddy went out, my mother took me and my brother to look for him, yesterday on the boat, someone came to grab our package, when my mother was fighting with him, the person fell into the river, and after the boat docked, someone reported to the official to take my mother away." ”

After hearing this, the people around the audience began to talk about it, and Gu Erniang also had indignation on her face, she said: "Damn it, damn it, is it so indistinguishable from black and white." ”

After that, she said to Xiao Yezi again: "Little girl, you go with my house, I have a way to take you to your mother." ”

Xiao Yezi's face was happy, and then she hesitated, she didn't recognize this woman, what if this person wanted to kidnap her and her brother?

Someone in the crowd recognized the sedan chair of the Assassin's Mansion and guessed that this woman was the third aunt's wife in the mansion, he saw Xiao Yezi bowing his head and was silent, so he said: "Little girl, you just have to go with her, this is the third aunt's wife of the Assassin's Mansion, and her master is the one who administers justice for you." ”

"That is, the third aunt is a great good person in the city, if she doesn't give you the master, you don't want to save your mother."

Xiao Yezi looked at the gentle woman in front of her, she thought for a moment, and thought in her heart, this person is from a rich and noble family at first glance, and he can't abduct her and Brother Yu'er, besides, the people around her seem to know her, and she can't really rescue her mother, thinking about it, Xiao Yezi gave her a blessing, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Mrs. Third Aunt, if you can help my mother, you are the great benefactor of our whole family." ”

Gu Erniang saw that Xiao Yezi was a good child who knew how to be polite, and she liked her more and more, she beckoned the servants to take Xiao Yezi and Brother Yu'er, and the group went back to the house in a mighty way.

Let's say that they returned to Xue Mansion, Gu Erniang first asked someone to invite Langzhong to see Yu Ge'er, fortunately, Yu Ge'er was just too frightened, and it would be okay to take a few pills, and after a while, a maid brought food to Xiao Yezi, at this moment the mother was in prison, Yu Ge'er was sick again, where did Xiao Yezi still have the heart to eat, but she was not good at brushing off the kindness of others, so she reluctantly used a few mouthfuls.

Soon, another mother-in-law came to pass the word, saying that the third aunt's wife asked Xiao Yezi to come over to talk, and Xiao Yezi entrusted the royal brother to the maid in the house to take care of her, and went to Gu Erniang's yard with her mother-in-law.

Gu Erniang's yard is only a few steps away from the courtyard where Xiao Yezi lives, the main courtyard is built wide and wide, and all kinds of chrysanthemums are planted in the yard.

Gu Erniang smiled slightly, she took Xiao Yezi's hand into the house, the two sat on the kang and talked, Gu Erniang asked, "Where is your hometown, what was the situation last night?" ”

Xiao Yezi told Gu Erniang carefully, only hiding the story of the big man trying to force her mother, and said: "We are from Lixian, and we took our younger brother to Beijing to find Daddy, who would have thought that Daddy was not found, but Niang was imprisoned." ”

Speaking of the sad place, Xiao Yezi burst into tears again, Gu Erniang wiped her tears for her and asked, "What is your mother's name, I will send someone to the yamen to ask." ”

Xiao Yezi said: "My mother's surname is Gu, and my maiden name is Sanniang." ”

Gu Erniang's body was shocked, the blood on her face faded, her eyes were in a daze, Xiao Yezi looked at her at a loss, she only thought that she had said something wrong, and she didn't dare to continue.

The room was quiet, and after a long time, Gu Erniang came to her senses, she tightly pulled the handkerchief in her hand, is there really such a coincidence in the world? She wanted to find her sister, so she came to a person with the same name and surname as her sister, but the people of the day clearly said that her third sister only gave birth to a daughter, but this Gu family has a son and a daughter, and her little brother is six or seven years old, which is not right.

Gu Erniang temporarily suppressed the doubts in her heart, and she asked Xiao Yezi again: "What is your mother's birthday, and who else is in your grandparents' family?" ”

Xiao Yezi didn't understand why the third aunt asked these words, but she still replied honestly: "My mother is May 18's birthday, and my family and grandparents have never moved, and I vaguely heard that there is an uncle who is separated by a floor. ”

Gu Erniang stood up suddenly, she couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart anymore, and said: "Is your family's surname Zhang, and there is a scar the length of chopsticks on your mother's calf?" ”

Xiao Yezi was taken aback, and she said, "How do you know this?" ”

Tears rolled out of Gu Erniang's eyes, she hugged Xiao Yezi and said, "Child, I am your aunt." ”

Gu Erniang's words made Xiao Yezi stunned for a moment, and she said stupidly: "My mother never told me, she only said that she had an aunt before, and then left, I asked her where she went, and she didn't say anything." ”

Gu Erniang couldn't cry, when her third sister went out to work, a few people suddenly came to the house, and before she and her third sister could say goodbye, they were pulled on a donkey cart and taken away, how could she know where she was sold.

The two people in the house cried together, which attracted the mother-in-law and maids who were waiting, and everyone did not know what was going on, and they were afraid that the aunt's wife would cry badly, so they all spoke out to persuade each other, that Gu Erniang remembered her sister who was still suffering in prison, and said to the servants in the house: "When people go to the yamen, they say that a woman surnamed Gu who was detained today has been wronged, and let her out quickly, if she is wronged, I will not follow." ”

The second monk in the room was puzzled and asked, "Mrs. Auntie, there must be a reason for this unclear mention of people, otherwise when the master asks, how should we answer?" ”

Gu Erniang was so angry that she slapped the kang table, and she said: "Master, I have me to deal with it, and if it's a little late, I'll only be angry with you." ”

The people below were accustomed to seeing Gu Erniang's amiable appearance, and when they saw that she was angry, they didn't dare to ask more, so they hurried out of the house to ask for someone after receiving the order.
