Chapter 7, what is the matchmaker

The strange man was a coachman, his body was thinner than Wang Lao Wu, and his skin was even darker than Wang Lao Wu, and he didn't look like a good person. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Wang Lao Wu looked like a good person last night, and when he looked at it carefully today, when his face was up, he was very gloomy, and his eyes still showed a light that seemed to eat people, which made people feel cold, and he didn't look like a good person at all.

Qi Qing'er ate breakfast in two or three bites, carefully took Yang Liu's hand, and tried to sneak out while Wang Lao Wu was making the bed and didn't pay attention.

Unexpectedly, after only a few steps, Wang Lao Wu found out.

He shouted at Qi Qing'er: "Where are you going!" Where to go! Come back and sit down! ”

Qi Qing'er stiffened, pretended not to hear his words, and pulled Yang Liu to run out directly.

But where can she and Yang Liu's small arms and legs outrun adults like Wang Laowu?

The two ran not far from the door, and were caught up and caught by Wang Lao Wu.

At this moment, the strange man happened to have a horsewhip in his hand and drove a carriage over.

He told Wang Lao Wu: "When you are ready, you can go now." ”

"Okay." Wang Lao Wu immediately picked up Qi Qing'er and Yang Liu and threw them into the carriage.

Immediately, the door was locked from the outside.

The carriage was pitch black, only a few small holes on the top let in a little light, and Qi Qing'er and Yang Liu could barely see each other's faces.

Yang Liu quickly got up from the carriage, helped Qi Qing'er to get up, suppressed his voice, and said timidly: "Sister Qing'er, I'm afraid!" ”

"Don't be afraid, my sister is here. I'll definitely protect you! Qi Qing patted Yang Liu's shoulder comfortingly, and asked with concern, "Did it hurt just now?" ”

"It hurts! That uncle was kind to us last night, why has he become so fierce now? Yang Liu touched his arm that was hurt by the fall, looking dazed.

"Maybe it's because my surname is Qi." , Qi Qing'er's eyes dimmed, pulled Yang Liu to sit up straight, and whispered: "This uncle is unreliable, we have to find a way to escape from here!" ”

While speaking, the carriage suddenly "clanged", and Wang Lao Wuyi jumped into the car and sat next to the coachman.

Immediately after that, the carriage began to accelerate.

The wheels of the car were pressed on the uneven dirt road, and it was rainy in early spring, and it was muddy everywhere. In addition, the road surface was pressed by many vehicles, and half of the large and small stones under the soil were exposed, and Qi Qing'er's carriage was pressed on it, so it was bumpy.

Qi Qing'er and Yang Liu rolled from the front of the carriage to the back of the carriage, their bodies hitting the car board, and kept making a "knock, knock," impact sound.

Qi Qing'er and Yang Liu both felt that their bodies were not only in pain, but also as if they were about to fall apart.

Yang Liu held his head in his hands and asked in a trembling voice, "Sister Qing'er, where do you say they are taking us?" ”

Qi Qing'er struggled to get up, grabbed Yang Liu's hand again, and looked firm: "No matter where we go, we must be together, and we must not be separated!" ”

"Good!" Yang Liu nodded obediently.

After a while, accompanied by the sound of the wooden planks of the carriage colliding with each other, Qi Qing'er and the others faintly heard the sound of Wang Lao Wu and the strange man talking outside the carriage.

Both of them were wary, and they approached the door in unison, staring through the crack in the door, and listening intently.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" The strange man looked curious.

"You have always heard of Qi Muze, the Marquis of the First Rank Army, it is the one who just defeated the Zhou State not long ago." Wang Lao Wu looked very anxious.

"I know, no one knows about Qi Mansion Qi Shuai."

"That little girl who looks stubborn is the daughter of Qi Shuai, the daughter of the military marquis!"

The strange man was obviously taken aback, the leather whip in his hand tightened, and his face distorted.

The carriage picked up speed again.

It's been another bumpy ride.

Qi Qing'er and Yang Liu almost vomited out the food they ate in the morning.

It was estimated that it was four or five hours before the sound of other carriages and the cries of the vendors could be heard outside the carriage.

The carriage slowed down and was no longer bumpy.

Qi Qing'er and Yang Liu continued to listen attentively.

At this time, the sound outside the carriage, in addition to the sound of the wheels and the shouting of the carriage, there were also the sound of pedestrians passing by, the sound of horses' hooves, the shouting of women, and the sound of countless chatters, as well as the sound of striking iron.

"Sister Qing'er, it seems that we have been taken to a street market." Yang Liu whispered.

"Hmm." Qi Qing'er also thinks so.

Listening to the lively sounds outside, she immediately remembered the sound of the fighting in Qi Mansion that day, and felt uncomfortable in her heart, and reached out to hug Yang Liu's shoulders tightly.

The carriage continued on, and after a short while, it finally stopped.

The door creaked and opened.

Outside the door was a dilapidated house with no doors and windows, and the sound of bustling noise could still be heard from the street not far away.

Before Qi Qing'er got out of the car and stood firmly, she was pushed forward by Wang Lao Wu and entered the dilapidated house with Yang Liu.

The house was covered with cobwebs and covered with horizontal wooden bricks.

Wang Lao Wu picked up his trouser skirt and sat on the dusty desk, and shouted at Qi Qing'er and Yang Liu angrily: "You all stand up straight, why are you so unlucky to buy your Qi Mansion people!" The girl surnamed Qi, let me tell you, from now on you don't have the surname Qi, your surname is Yang, and your sister has the same surname, remember it for me, you can't say that you leaked your mouth, otherwise, if you are discovered by the officials, you can only continue to be exiled. ”

The strange man who was a little thinner quickly glanced at Wang Lao Wu, and said in a low voice: "Brother, don't mention the word Qi Mansion, this matchmaker will arrive in a while, if she knows, at most one of these two can be sold!" ”

"I'll save it!" Wang Lao Wu immediately lowered his voice.

Qi Qing'er saw it in her eyes, and her heart fluctuated.

It turned out that Qi Mansion had turned into a flood beast!

It's just that who is the matchmaker? Is it the red woman?

Qi Qing'er was very puzzled and wanted to ask Yang Liu beside her, but when she raised her eyes and saw Wang Lao Wu's fierce eyes, she was a little afraid that it would affect Yang Liu, and finally bit her lip and didn't dare to speak.

After a while, a piece of red silk drape was revealed at the threshold of the doorless door, embroidered with fine pieces of dark red flower feathers, and then a pair of golden red shoes with a hundred butterflies were particularly eye-catching, and with the infinite charm of the charming laughter, a coquettish figure appeared in the room.

Qi Qing'er looked at the woman in front of her, thinking that the matchmaker was dressed in red and called the matchmaker.

"I'll see, what kind of goods are going this time!" The matchmaker's voice is good!

Qi Qing'er felt that her bones were crispy, and the air was accompanied by the matchmaker, wafting with a strong smell of fat powder, which made her can't help but sneeze.

The matchmaker's hand, which was about to reach under Qi Qing'er's jaw, quickly retracted again.

"Where did you get the girl, so rude!" The matchmaker was unhappy, took out a silk handkerchief, and wiped her hands vigorously.

"What's the matter with you, and you, all of them downcast? All head up! Wang Lao Wu hurriedly got up and scolded.

The matchmaker is his gold owner, and he can't be offended.

Qi Qing'er and Yang Liu were a little afraid of Wang Lao Wu's obscenity, their bodies shook slightly, and Qi Qi raised his head.

Two little girls, one is not only born beautiful, but also has two big eyes, which is moving, and the other is not a natural beauty, but she is better than her facial features, and she is also a beauty.

The matchmaker was very satisfied, and stroked her chin with the back of her fingers: "Well, the posture is good, but this courage is too small, and the bones of the body look too weak, so I can't stand the slightest fright!" ”

"These two are only ten years old, what are they afraid of when they are weak, they will raise them for five or six years, and they will be good when they can wait for men!" Wang Lao Wu had expected the matchmaker to say this, and her two arms were like monkeys.

"That's just as well." The matchmaker nodded, threw out a red brocade bag, and landed in Wang Laowu's hand, making a sound of silver colliding.

Qi Qing'er didn't understand the meaning of the conversation between the matchmaker and Wang Laowu, but she could understand that the matchmaker gave Wang Laowu silver, which should mean that the two parties were making a deal.

At the beginning, when Yang Liu came to the house to be a maid, Qi Qing'er's mother also gave Ya Pozi silver.

She pondered that she and Yang Liu would probably be the maids bought by this matchmaker in the future.

It's just that I don't know if this matchmaker will be like Wang Lao Wu, sometimes good and sometimes bad.

Also, what did Wang Lao Wu say about "waiting for men"? Could it be that this matchmaker bought herself and Yang Liu and called her son, right?

Since he was a child, he has been dressed and fed since he was a child, calling slaves and calling maids, and today, he is actually reduced to the point of being a slave and a maid!

If Brother Junsheng, who was far away within the palace walls of the capital, knew all this, would he feel sorry for himself?

The more Qi Qing'er thought about it, the more uncomfortable it became, and she couldn't help but hold Yang Liu's hand tightly, as if only in this way could she feel better in her heart.
