8. Chapter VIII

Fifteen passed in a blink of an eye, and Xu Shihuai asked several people to inquire if there was anyone from Shandong who lost their daughter, but there was no news. After the New Year, there were suddenly more people in the hospital, and Lin Hongwen didn't have time to soak in the study, so he went to the medicine bucket every day to help grab medicine. Yuan Ting is also a discerning person, she helps Aunt Feng with her work every day, and she can talk again, so Aunt Feng loves her even more.

"Master, there have been a lot of faces seeing a doctor in the past two days," Zheng Yun said.

"You see that, too?" Xu Shihuai glanced at Yuan Ting, who was sweeping the floor, "I think the Russians are recruiting again." ”

Zheng Yun followed Xu Shihuai's gaze, "This girl is very good at talking, and she chats happily with everyone, I saw that day that she chatted with a patient for a long time." ”

"Find her parents early, send them out early," Xu Shihuai said.

However, before they could find Yuan Ting's parents, a group of people rushed into the hospital viciously, and when they saw Yuan Ting, they grabbed her. Zheng Yun stopped and was kicked back, and the entire medical hall was stunned all of a sudden, only Xu Shihuai was still writing the prescription. Lin Hongwen gently pushed his arm, "Doctor Xu." ”

"Doctor Xu", Yuan Ting shouted hoarsely, "They are human traffickers, you save me." ”

Xu Shihuai put down the pen and raised his eyes to look at the visitor. There were six of them, the leader was holding Yuan Ting, and the rest were looking at the others in the hospital with fierce eyes, all holding guys in their hands, and all six of them were on their backs.

"Several", Xu Shihuai stood up and stood in front of everyone in the medical hall, "I, Xu, have been opening a medical center here for more than ten years, you have something to say, you don't have to be like this." ”

"Doctor Xu, we are not unreasonable people", the leader said, "This girl's father and mother have already sold her to us, who knows if she escaped." ”

"Nope! My father and mother didn't sell me", Yuan Ting struggled hard, and said with tears in her eyes, "Doctor Xu, save me, save me, they will kill me." ”

"Is there a deed of sale?" Xu Shihuai asked.

The man gave a look to the person behind him, and the other person took out the deed of sale, Xu Shihuai looked at it carefully, "Since this is the case, we can't take care of this matter, you can take her away." ”

The leader was stunned, and Lin Hongwen ran over, "Doctor Xu, just let them take her away." ”

"What do you know", Xu Shihuai scolded, "Grab the medicine!" ”

Lin Hongwen bit his lip, looked up and saw Yuan Ting looking at him with tears in his eyes, gritted his teeth and pleaded again, "It is said that saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, you have been giving medicine for so many years, why do you bear to push her into the fire pit today?" ”

"Yes, this girl is quite pitiful...... Cheng Yu's words just started, and he was glared back by Xu Shihuai.

"It is not difficult for us," said the man at the head, "if you have pity on her, and want to keep her, and give the money according to the amount of the deed of sale, we may go back and give an account." ”

"You don't have to be afraid that it will be difficult to explain", Xu Shihuai said with a smile, "Although my medical hall has been open for so many years, I still have to give medicine and medicine in those bad years, and I can't make a lot of money." I just saw that the deed of sale was written for ten taels of silver, and we couldn't get such a large amount of money. You just have to take this girl back and give an account, and don't pay attention to the others. ”

"Doctor Xu", Yuan Ting looked at him with disappointment, "You have been practicing medicine for all these years, and you can't be saved when you die!" ”

As soon as the words fell, there was another commotion at the door, and Ding Si'er led a group of people from Zashi'er with a pig-killing knife in his hand and rushed into the medical hall, "Doctor Xu, is this the gang?" ”

Doctor Xu looked at them, then at Yuan Ting, and said with a smile, "Okay, this time the people are here, and you can't leave if you want to." ”

The leader looked around, "Doctor Xu, what do you mean by this?" ”

Xu Shihuai looked at them with a smile, "Originally, you led someone and left, and I didn't plan to pursue it, but if you didn't leave, and let this girl shout and scream here, then I won't be used to you." ”

"Master, what's going on?" Zheng Yun asked.

"What's the matter, it's set up on our heads", Xu Shihuai stretched out his hand and pointed at Yuan Ting, "This girl is in the same group as them." ”

Lin Hongwen looked at Yuan Ting in surprise, and Xu Shihuai nodded his head, "It's just that you stupid boy is willing to believe her nonsense." What kind of world is it now, and how stupid do human traffickers have to be to spend ten taels of silver to buy a girl who has no power to tie a chicken? Are you full? When that girl first came, I saw that she was not wearing shoes and her clothes were thin, so I was afraid that she would freeze to death, so I specially asked you Aunt Feng a few more words. Who knew that she didn't have any frostbite on her body at all, and you guys who were strong and healthy didn't dare to dress like that and walk outside, not to mention that she was a girl. You don't remember what she said at the time? She said it took a long run to get to us. ”

Lin Hongwen thought about it carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he felt, Xu Shihuai glanced at him, "She is reading in the study with you, can she be literate?" ”

Lin Hongwen nodded, he remembered that when Yuan Ting took the book from the shelf, he also asked specifically, "She once read a paragraph to me, and she is very fluent." ”

"Which one are you reading?"

"I read Mencius."

She herself said that her hometown is in Heze, and there are only a few acres of thin fields at home, so that other people's daughters can actually read and write, and that's it, she still reads the Four Books and Five Classics? I once passed by the study and listened to her tease you, so where would an ordinary daughter say? ”

Lin Hongwen looked at Yuan Ting, his eyes were full of puzzlement, he didn't understand how a simple and cute little girl could become a scheming liar. Yuan Ting also looked at him, her tears dried up, there was no anger and grievances in her eyes, and she was as calm as a pool of stagnant water. Xu Shihuai pressed his shoulder, and his gaze swept over the six people one by one, "You guys are new to here, even if you count on my Xu Shihuai's head, you are also so courageous." ”

"Doctor Xu, what are you talking about with him", Ding Si'er shouted, "These miscellaneous pieces dare to provoke you, we will help you clean up." ”

Xu Shihuai smiled and said, "I have to let them die if they die, don't they?" Okay, I'm done with what I need to say, you can do it. ”

The leader saw that Ding Si'er was carrying a pig-killing knife and rushed to them, and immediately panicked, "Doctor Xu, you have a lot of adults, we just eat together, we just arrived, and there is really no money in our pockets, so I didn't even inquire clearly, you don't remember the villain, spare us." ”

"It's late," Xu Shihuai said, turning around and returning to his place, sitting down and continuing to write the formula. The people of the miscellaneous market rushed up and tied up all six of them and took them out.

Lin Hongwen looked out of the door with a worried face, and Xu Shihuai shouted him three times before he heard it. "Don't worry about it, you can't get out of your life", Xu Shihuai said, "Ding Si'er's knife is just to scare people." ”

"Master, how did they come so fast?" Zheng Yun asked.

"I have long seen that girl is weird, so I told you Aunt Feng, as soon as something happens, let her immediately run out of the back door to find someone from the miscellaneous market to come and help."

"Doctor Xu, since you already knew that she was weird, why did you take her in for so long?" Lin Hongwen asked.

"I think she's weird anymore, and I always think in my heart that what if, if she tells the truth, kick her out, isn't that just pushing her to death?" Xu Shihuai shook his head, "This girl is too good at talking, even your Aunt Feng said that she is like a human spirit, and I don't blame you for falling in love with her, one day let Zheng Yun or Cheng Yu lead you to Peach Blossom Lane to see and see, and when other people's eyes look at you with tears in their eyes, you won't be able to find the north." ”

The words made Lin Hongwen red-faced, and he didn't know how to pick it up, Zheng Yun laughed so much that he almost didn't turn his back, patted his chest and said, "This matter is wrapped up in me." ”

19.

Later, Lin Hongwen inquired, and it was said that the gang was beaten up by people from the miscellaneous market and kicked out of the Fu family's store, and I don't know where to deceive people. A few days after the medical hall stopped, Zheng Yun said that he would take Lin Hongwen to Peach Blossom Lane, Lin Hongwen shirked it a few times, and Zheng Yun and Cheng Yu took him out together.

Regarding Peach Blossom Lane, Lin Hongwen only knew that it was an alley where clay kilns and brothels gathered, and people who came to the hospital to see a doctor would sometimes mumble quietly, but he didn't know any more. By the time we arrived, it was completely dark, but the alley was much brighter than the rest. Lin Hongwen stood at the end of the alley, looking at the short alley, and there seemed to be a woman standing at each door, either leaning on the door frame, or standing outside.

Zheng Yun looked at Lin Hongwen, who was already dumbfounded, and said, "It's also a good thing that Master asked you to open your eyes, so let a half-grown girl hook her soul in the future." ”

Saying that, he and Cheng Yu pulled Lin Hongwen into the alley, although they didn't come often, but Lin Hongwen was a few years older, and there were one or two familiar girls. Lin Hongwen was pulled into a place called a flower building by the two, went up to the second floor, and told the old bustard the names of two familiar girls, and the old bustard immediately recruited the two, the two are sisters, one is called Qin Hong, the other is called Qin Yu, both of them are in their early twenties, tall, coquettish, although the eyebrows and eyes are not particularly outstanding, but with charm. Lin Hongwen only felt very ashamed, and he didn't know where to look with his eyes.

"The two of you haven't been here for a long time, I'm afraid you forgot about our sisters", the woman named Qin Hong was disgusted, but her eyes were fluttering, and the corners of her lips smiled, "Yo, where did this little brother come from?" It's really handsome. ”
