Outside Nanyang City, rows of ragged passers-by gathered on the side of the road. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

They are all refugees who fled from the border of Shu, Liang and Meng, and homeless people whose homes have been destroyed by successive wars.

There are young girls and girls with grass sticks on their heads, strong young men who work hard to fight for their masters, and the old, weak, sick and disabled who are holding broken bowls and have black faces and only begging for a bite to eat.

In the same way, they all looked at the carriages of passing merchants, hoping that the people who came could bring them a glimmer of hope.

"There is a bodhisattva who has issued silver!"

Suddenly, someone shouted.

Everyone looked in front of the official road, an ordinary black wood four-headed carriage came slowly, the crowd around the carriage was boiling, cheering, and more people behind him rushed to the side of the carriage.

"I didn't understand that day, why did the girl ask Master Yang to exchange all the ingots and silver ingots you gave you for broken silver, it turns out that you have long wanted to scatter your wealth." The mother-in-law behind him said.

"It's not a scatter, it's an atonement." Ah Xiu replied calmly.

The carriage went slowly, and she stood behind the front seat of the carriage and placed two pieces of silver on the palms of each hand that reached out to the front of the carriage.

There are a few greedy people who get the silver, hide it and then stretch out their hands, but they can't escape Ah Xiu's sharp eyes, they don't let go of the silver, and when they spit out the true breath of their fingertips, the hand will retract like a needle.

Those who covet the carriage can immediately understand that this is not fat, but wolf teeth.

Most of them are contented people, and they are already overjoyed when they hold the money!

A large number of people were kneeling behind the car, densely crowded on the side of the official road, kowtowing and shouting: "Thank you Bodhisattva!" Bodhisattvas live a long life! ”

Hundreds of people, half a cart of broken silver, soon there was not much left.

Two taels of silver is the monthly interest of a high-class girl from a large family, and this half car is three thousand taels of silver, and it will be dispersed!

The ugly mother-in-law couldn't help but take a breath.

The city gate is in sight, the white smoke of the porridge shed in front of the door rises, the gong of the porridge is knocked "Qiang Qiang", and the people who took the silver surround happily!

The crowd was buzzing.

"Mother, after drinking porridge, I'll buy you a few big meat buns!"

"It's good now, you can buy some cloth and sew new skirts for Magu!"

"I don't know which Bodhisattva, my master can finally go to see Langzhong!"

"It's still a good place in this Bangladesh country, there is a Bodhisattva master who opens a porridge shed, and a Bodhisattva girl who sends silver!"

"As long as you don't fight, anywhere is fine! Alas, it's a pity that my family has ten acres of fertile land. ”

As soon as the carriage was empty, the four healthy horses easily lifted their hooves, and "da-da-da" passed through the city gate and entered Nanyang City.

"My family Ah Xiu is really willing, my old wife, I have never seen so much silver in my life." The ugly granny grinned.

"If money is not exchanged for something of value, it is like a dead thing." Ah Xiu never seems to smile, and always has a cold expression on his face.

The ugly mother-in-law got used to it, and she didn't care: "Your money, given away, is valuable to others, but what about you?" ”

"Peace of mind." Ah Xiu sighed faintly: "But this silver can only manage their food and clothing for a few days, and it is not a long-term solution." ”

"Does the girl have a long-term plan?" The ugly mother-in-law probably guessed a few points, this girl's ability is greater than she thought, and when she said this, she had an idea.

"If you can find it, you should be able to." Ah Xiu looked out the window.

Nanyang is a rich city, with wide long streets, acacia and willows along the road, which bloom green in the spring light in April.

The high gate courtyard on both sides of the street is closely connected, mostly the ebony door bluestone wall, high eaves and high windows, than the beautiful pavilion in the south of the Yangtze River, a little more atmospheric.

The carriage went straight to the downtown area, on both sides of the street, gradually the number of shops and wine shops, the number of pedestrians gradually densed, a prosperous and peaceful atmosphere, compared with the gathering place of refugees outside the city, the difference is very different, like two worlds.

The carriage stopped in front of a four-door shop in a small two-story building, and the coachman said in a rough voice: "Girl, do you see this place? ”

Ah Xiu lifted the bamboo curtain on the car door, and on the black lacquer ebony tung oil plaque, there were four big characters written in red lacquer: "Juyuan Yaotang"!

"It should be, let's go in and have a look." She got out of the car and helped her mother-in-law again, the mother-in-law walked with inconvenient legs and feet, slightly lame, and on crutches.

"Girl, do you want to ask for a doctor or take medicine?" A junior who was dozing off at the square table in the hall greeted him.

"Juyuan Li family, but your host?" Ah Xiu spoke.

The little second saw that the person who came was ugly and his shirt was torn, and he had already lost his smiling face, and when he heard the owner ask, he couldn't help but sneer: "You are sick and see a doctor, what do you care about our owner?" ”

"Who is the shopkeeper here?"

Xiao Er felt very strange, seeing that the visitor did not see a doctor or take medicine, he asked the owner and asked the shopkeeper, isn't he here to make trouble?

Thinking of this, he pushed the two of them out: "Go and go, don't come to make trouble if you are not sick, our pharmacy is open for consultation, don't you want to check the owner's house?" ”

Ah Xiu was not in a hurry, but said: "Little brother, I do have something to do with your owner, and please report it." ”

The little er's eyes wrinkled, an ugly village girl, what could she do to find her wealthy owner? It's not seeking revenge or poor relatives fighting the autumn wind, and you have to report it, and you can't be blamed by the owner for not having eyesight?

drove people out one by one: "Let's go, the owner is not here, tell me if you really have anything." ”

The ugly mother-in-law was pushed, but fortunately, Ah Xiu helped her, and the latter's face was frosty.

"It's just a word of communication, why don't you make it convenient for the little brother?" A young man came in at the door at some point and interjected.

The man was wearing a stone blue water cloud robe, covered with a azure Shu brocade ruyi pattern gown, his hair was inlaid with a jasper crown, and his feet were pedaling ink blue Chaotian boots.

Jade face and long eyebrows, bright eyes and nose, holding a folding fan, warm and beautiful, fresh as jade, I don't know which family is the best son.

Xiao Erzao changed his face and said with a smile: "This son asks for a doctor or grabs medicine?" These two are here to make trouble, and the son doesn't have to deal with it. ”

"Trouble? I saw that they just asked you to pass it on, is this a trouble? ”

"This." The shopkeeper was at a loss, this noble boy obviously spoke for these two ugly people, what does they have to do with each other? Unlikely.

"Does Childe know these two?"

Childe shook his head.

"That's it, they just want to find the owner to make trouble, of course they have to get out!" Xiao Er explained impatiently.

"I think it's better for you to go out by yourself." The boy threw down a sentence lightly, then took the folding fan and walked inside.

Xiao Er was stunned in place, what did you tell me to go out? What do you mean?

In a daze, the curtain of the backyard door was lifted, and a middle-aged man with a goatee came in, with a strong body, and when he saw the noble son, he hurriedly greeted him and said: "The second son arrived so early, why don't you pass it on first, and the small one can send someone to greet him!" ”

Second son? The shopkeeper called him the second son?

Sweat dripped from the forehead of the shopkeeper.

The second son pointed behind him: "This little second doesn't seem to know how to communicate, please go back!" ”

The shopkeeper didn't ask any more, and his eyes squinted: "Chen Er, you have received the monthly money, go back to the village." ”

The shopkeeper finally understood, and hurriedly knelt down and slapped his two mouths and said: "The shopkeeper, the second son, the little one is wrong, the little one has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and he didn't pass it on to the second son." ”

He whined and covered his face, and said aggrievedly: "However, the little one is not to pass on the second son, but not to the two people." ”

The second son, Shu Jinxiu, waved his bamboo folding fan, shook it on his chest, and said lightly: "Don't you know what's wrong?" ”

"The door is a guest, you judge people by their appearance, lose sincerity, and snub guests, this is one of them; You don't ask the reason, you don't make your own opinions, and you go beyond the rules, which is the second thing; It's just that you refuse to let people out of the door, and you also push the old man, and you lose your manners, which is the third. ”

Before the little two refutated, the shopkeeper already understood what was going on, called someone, and forked the little two out.

Ah Xiu and her mother-in-law watched from the sidelines, and knew who this person was.
