Chapter 37 The Bank
As the largest brothel in Fengcheng, and located in an extremely prosperous area, there is always an endless stream of people passing by or entering and exiting the Moon Pavilion, and many of them were shocked by Lin Qing's sudden movements.
"What's wrong with her?" A girl looked at Lin Qing carefully, pointed her finger at Lin Qing and said suspiciously.
Another bewitching girl also had puzzled on her face, "It's okay to look at it, why are you crying endlessly?" ”
More and more people gathered around Lin Qing, and you talked about the reason why Lin Qing was crying.
"In my opinion, this woman is very likely to be looking for a husband. It must have been her husband who was obsessed with the girl in the Moon Pavilion and abandoned her, which made her cry in front of the Moon Pavilion. A middle-aged woman looked at Lin Qing with pity in her eyes, "What a poor man, she became an abandoned woman at a young age!" ”
Many people agreed with the woman's statement, and such things happened from time to time in front of the Moon Pavilion, and everyone was already surprised. For the woman on the ground who was in tears, some people complained, some laughed, some disdained and some pitied her, but no one stepped forward to help Lin Qing, who was sitting on the ground.
Lin Qing rolled his eyes in his heart, there are a lot of people watching the play, but there are few people who really enter the play, it seems that he pretended to be pitiful this time and pretended to be a failure!
"The little woman is really miserable, my poor brother, you ...... You died so miserably......" Lin Qing cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, and his expression was indescribably sad.
Brother? Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to these two words.
"Could it be that she's not here to find a husband?" I don't know who in the crowd asked.
"Didn't you hear this girl say that her brother died so badly? How could she be looking for a husband when she said that? There must be something else hidden in this. ”
"What happened to this girl? Why are you weeping here? Finally, someone couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart.
"Well-wishers, here's the thing, the little girl has no father or mother since she was a child, and it was my brother who raised me with hard work. But this month, the people of the secluded pavilion tied him up because my brother was handsome, and my brother didn't obey, so those people punched and kicked him, and now he is not a living person, and even the body is nowhere to be found! Lin Qing's voice was not big or small, but it just fell into the ears of the spectators present.
The crowd was full of chatter.
Some people don't believe it: "Girl, your brother was really tied up by the people of the Moon Pavilion?" ”
Someone questioned: "As far as I know, the Moon Pavilion has always been law-abiding, and it is impossible to commit such a bandit." ”
However, Lin Qing didn't answer anyone's questions, and only cried vigorously. She came to see Bai Xi in the Moon Pavilion, originally to ask Bai Xi where Jiang Shao was. Since Jiang Shao said that he lived in Bai Xi's courtyard that night, and Bai Xi's maid Xiaohong was also in the courtyard at the time, Bai Xi must know about Jiang Shao's whereabouts.
She wanted to ask Jiang Shao in person, why did she treat her so coldly? If he was alienated from him because he knew his identity, then she Lin Qing would have never known him.
"What's going on?" The person who rushed out of the Yueyou Pavilion in a hurry was the old bustard, I heard that there was a woman crying in front of the Yueyou Pavilion, and the old bustard intuitively felt that this matter had nothing to do with Lin Qing.
Seeing that the crying woman was really Lin Qing, the old bustard suddenly became angry, pointed at Lin Qing's nose and scolded sharply: "You cheap girl is so shameless, is Miss Baixi the one you can see when you say you can see it?" If you don't know each other yet, leave quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind! ”
Lin Qing naturally couldn't let the old bustard speak in humiliation, and when the old bustard got closer, Lin Qing got up at the right time and slapped the old bustard in the face.
This slap made the old bustard stunned, and his eyes stared at Lin Qing and he didn't know what to say.
"It was you, wicked woman, who led someone to kidnap my brother, and you returned my brother! Give back my brother! Lin Qing cried hoarsely, crying and patting the inflexible body of the old bustard.
The old bustard who reacted was even more angry, and she had been rampant and domineering in the Moon Pavilion for many years, and she had always been the only one who bullied others, where was the moment when she was bullied? She is not a dumb loser, seeing Lin Qing's move, she rolled up her sleeves and was about to fight back. The old bustard's eyes showed a fierce light, and he said in a vicious voice: "What a, see that I don't kill you!" ”
"Ahh Lin Qing covered his face and fell backwards uncontrollably, "What's the reason, the people of the Moon Pavilion are going to kill people!" ”
The old bustard looked at her hand suspiciously, this palm had clearly not touched the person in front of her, why did she have such a violent reaction? The old bustard thought for a while, and quickly understood that Lin Qing was acting.
"Hmph, playing tricks in front of me? You're still a little tender! The old bustard waved his hand and motioned to a few sturdy turtle slaves who were guarding in front of the Moon Pavilion, "Come on, tie up this cheap maid for me and take it away, I want to see what tricks she can make!" ”
Everyone originally only believed Lin Qing's words for three points, but when they saw that the old bustard was arrogant and ordered someone to tie up Lin Qing, their trust in what Lin Qing said changed from three points to seven points.
"In my opinion, don't do things too much, this girl has a poor background, you better let her brother go, just think you are accumulating blessings." A middle-aged man said loudly. He really can't stand it, this month's secluded mansion is really unkind, not to mention robbing someone's brother, but now he doesn't let go of a weak woman!
"In this blue sky and white day, they have no scruples about doing evil things!" The tone of the speaker was extremely sarcastic.
"Pity this little girl, she looks so handsome, what will happen if she is tied up by the people of the Moon Pavilion!" The other sighed helplessly.
The spectators present invariably came up with the word 'forcing good people to become prostitutes'.
Lin Qing naturally couldn't let the turtle slaves bind her body, she was already petite, and she would move as nimble as a loach in order to avoid the hands of the turtle slaves. In the blink of an eye, Lin Qing arrived in front of the old bustard, and Lin Qing quietly attached to the old bustard's ear and whispered: "You say, if I go to the government to sue you for robbing the people's girls and forcing you to become a prostitute, what kind of ending will it be?" ”
"It's really a fool's dream, are you stupid to be the old men in the yamen? How can they believe your little girl's words! The old bustard secretly laughed at Lin Qing's incompetence, but his brows involuntarily wrinkled into the word 'Chuan'.
"It's you who is stupid, can't you see the expressions and movements of these people around you? I am afraid that someone has already gone to report to the official, and if you tie me up today, the charge of forcing Liang to become a prostitute will definitely be confirmed. In that case, are you sure you want to tie me up? ”
"You!" The old bustard was so angry that she clenched her teeth, she has always been well versed in the way of observing appearances and colors, and after looking at the expressions of the onlookers, she understood that what Lin Qing said was true. "Who the hell are you? Why are you designing to harm me? ”
"Hurt you? I have no grudge against you, how can I design to harm you for no reason? You should know what I want to do, let Bai Xi come to see me now, otherwise ......" Lin Qing said as he made a posture that he was about to shout loudly.
Although he couldn't understand that Lin Qing made such a big move, but just to see what Bai Xi was doing, the old bustard still obediently sent someone to bring Bai Xi.
Lin Qing frowned, Shi Cai accidentally touched the wound in order to avoid those turtle slaves, which would be a hot pain. The more Lin Qing thought about it, the more she felt that her laborious acting this time was too cost-effective, and there could have been a simpler way to inquire about Jiang Shao's traces, but she chose the most troublesome one!
Could it be that he has not played tricks for too long, so he has done this? Her old job is to deceive people and steal things, but she has always acted in the vicissitudes of Fengning.
Could it be that she lost her mind because she was anxious to see Jiang Shao? Lin Qing was frightened by her own idea, and soon she denied this statement on her own.
"Jiang Shao is just a disciple with a good skin. Yes, he's just a disciple! Lin Qing muttered over and over again in his heart.
