Chapter 154: There is no coincidence in the capital
"I really don't know what the girls in this carriage look like, big brother, you are so precious to them, ......" The man muttered a few times dissatisfiedly, although his heart was full of resentment, he didn't say anything, and the footsteps suddenly walked away.
Lin Mei and Wang Huiyuan shrank in the carriage, not even daring to breathe, and they were relieved when they heard that the man had finally walked away.
Lin Mei ...... We, it shouldn't be fine......" Wang Huiyuan hid beside Lin Mei and shivered, and his voice was also low.
Lin Mei wanted to shake her head, but when she saw Wang Huiyuan scared like this, she couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart......
But not long after, the footsteps of the group of people came from outside the carriage again, Lin Meigang's face couldn't help but stagnate, Wang Huiyuan bumped her with the shoulder, and whispered in her ear, "It's noon, they just came to bring us food and drink, otherwise there will be no time to eat when we are in a hurry." ”
Sure enough, as soon as Wang Huiyuan's words fell, he saw a stride, black-faced man striding into the car with a bulging oil-paper bag in his hand, and a water bag in the other hand.
This person is the owner of the shop, I heard the shopkeeper talk about how beautiful the girl in the carriage is, he was still very unimpressed, and now after seeing it, although he feels that the shopkeeper is a little exaggerated, but the two little girls in the carriage are indeed good...... Although it is not to the point of captivating the country and the city, it can be regarded as a middle-class posture when it looks like this.
Although Wang Huiyuan wondered why the person who delivered the food was changed. But he didn't dare to show it on his face, he just lowered his head and was silent, making a obedient appearance.
The black-faced man was obviously obsessed with Wang Huiyuan. Although he also glanced at Lin Mei a few times, in the end his eyes turned to Wang Huiyuan, threw the food and water in his hands into the carriage at will, and then leaned on his body to help Wang Huiyuan untie the rope, looking at her with a smile, his eyes were full of evil spirit.
Wang Huiyuan saw that the rope on his body was untied, and he wanted to say thank you. But as soon as he looked up, he saw the black-faced man perched above him, and before he could react, he involuntarily let out a piercing scream from his mouth......
Lin Mei was not frightened by this black-faced man, but was frightened by Wang Huiyuan's scream. Then he silently turned his head away without reacting.
Now in this environment, she doesn't dare to provoke this man who looks very fierce, originally he just took a fancy to Wang Huiyuan, maybe after her stirred up the situation, even she herself would be difficult to protect, but what should I do?!
The black-faced man couldn't help frowning when he heard Wang Huiyuan's piercing scream, with a displeased expression on his face. The fierce look in his eyes became heavier and heavier.
"This ...... Uncle? Lin Mei saw his expression that he was about to devour Wang Huiyuan alive. Although he was also panicked in his heart, he still couldn't bear to be destroyed by his only ally like this, so he took the initiative to call out.
The man looked at it, and the ferocity in his eyes became more and more intense.
"Hmm...... You see, she is so good-looking, if she wants to sell it, maybe she can sell it for three hundred taels of silver...... What's more, you know it too. Although she had been in the temple, she was born to Miss Everybody. Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and singing are very proficient, and when the time comes, she can raise her worth with these talents, right? You see, if you give her now...... That, after that, it probably won't be able to sell for that much money, right? ”
Lin Mei swallowed her saliva, although she said it dryly, but she had done her best, if she really couldn't get it back, then she couldn't do anything......
The man thought carefully for a while, and after listening to Lin Mei's words, he looked at her a few more times, and snorted coldly, "The corners of your mouth are very neat, no wonder my shopkeeper said that you are too annoying......
Lore......
The corners of Lin Mei's mouth twitched, although she also knew that she was not very likable, but she still felt a little sour when she heard others say this, after all, she didn't want to be so scathing......
"Since you've said so, it's hard for me to do it again......" The man glanced at Lin Mei obliquely, his eyes were full of coldness, and even a faint bloody aura drifted from his body.
"That's right...... Uncle, it's great that you can think like this......" Lin Mei squeezed out a smile on her face, and when she was about to pat a few more sycophants, another familiar male voice came from outside the carriage.
"Big brother, why have you been so long? Wouldn't you just do it? The man opened the curtain as he spoke, and when he and Lin Mei looked at each other, they were both startled, and blurted out, "Why are you here?" After finishing speaking, she looked Lin Mei up and down with a strange face, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Lin Mei has a bad avenue in her heart, why has she met acquaintances so often recently? It's just that these acquaintances are all friends with her......
"Looking at this look, you should be able to see why I'm here......" Lin Mei pursed her mouth, turned her head and grinded her teeth and said silently.
It turned out that this person was one of the four brothers of the thief that Lin Mei caught in the west of the capital, but later because of many other things, Lin Mei returned to Linshan County, and these four brothers were forgotten by her in the firewood room of the warehouse in the west of the city, but looking at the way they are now, whether it is for others to let them out, or whether they escape by themselves, they all have an enmity with her anyway......
"Second brother, do you know her?" The black-faced man was quite concerned about the person who was the leader of the four thieves, and when he saw that he seemed to know Lin Mei, he said in a harmonious voice, "If you like it, the eldest brother will give her to you!" ”
Lin Mei's face turned black when she heard this, if it fell into the hands of this person, then she might as well continue to stay in the hands of this black-faced man, at least this black-faced man has no enmity with her!
The man was hesitant, his face was very entangled, and finally glanced at Lin Mei, but nodded, instead of hurriedly urging the black-faced man to go straight, "Big brother, I do know her." Why don't you leave first? Some things are really embarrassing to ...... in front of you."
The black-faced man obviously understood his shy appearance, patted him on the shoulder with a smile in his eyes, nodded and prepared to get off the carriage. When he was about to leave, he glanced at Wang Huiyuan, and said to the man, "Second brother, why don't I help you take this girl away, you can do something better......
Wang Huiyuan was about to be stupid when she heard this, she shook her head violently, and pounced on Lin Mei with a snot and tears on her face, crying incessantly. He still said vaguely, "I don't want ...... Don't ......"
Lin Mei herself is difficult to protect, so naturally she can't control Wang Huiyuan's affairs, and her whole body is stiff. Stared warily at the thief without saying a word.
"Big brother...... It's just a little thing, you go first, and I'll come to you later......" The man smiled awkwardly until he saw the black-faced man walking away. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. turned his gaze to Lin Mei again.
Lin Mei involuntarily moved back, but found that the back seemed to be the wall of the carriage, and there was really no way to retreat......
"Miss Lin?" When the man saw Lin Mei's appearance as if she was facing a great enemy, he called out cautiously, for fear that his louder voice would scare her.
This is called...... Doesn't it look like he's here to seek revenge?
Lin Mei blinked, looking at the man who was originally very cold and arrogant but was now very shy for some reason, but she still didn't dare to relax her vigilance in her heart.
"Don't worry, I've always been a person who has always repaid my kindness and complained...... You helped me. It's the benefactor of all of us, how can I be violent to you? The man said with a slight flush on his face. A bowed step was about to come to Lin Mei's side.
"Don't come here!" Seeing this, Lin Mei shouted loudly, her eyes were a little red, if this person dared to take another step forward, she would break the net with him!
The man was stunned when he saw Lin Mei's reaction so fierce, and suddenly seemed to understand something, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Miss Lin, I just want to help you untie the rope......
Lin Mei still didn't believe it, she sniffed with red eyes, and said in a dumb voice, "I don't believe you have such a kind ......."
"Miss Lin, why are you so stubborn?" The man saw that Lin Mei didn't believe that he was in a hurry, so he directly stepped up and covered Lin Mei a few feet away from Lin Mei to help Lin Mei untie the rope on her body.
Lin Mei thought that this person wanted to do something wrong to her, and was about to bite the man's neck when she suddenly felt that her hands and feet could move, so she opened her mouth that was about to open wide and slowly closed it.
"You ......" Lin Mei frowned suspiciously, a little puzzled why this person suddenly let himself go.
Seeing that Lin Mei had finally quieted down, the big man scratched his head and smiled, glanced at her a little shyly, and said in a low voice, "Mrs. Shu said that you begged for mercy, so she let us go...... Moreover, he gave us three hundred taels of silver to do a small business......"
Lin Mei was suddenly stunned when she heard this, blinked her eyes and frowned suspiciously, "Mrs. Shu let you go?" ”
This...... It's impossible to think about it, Mrs. Shu's temperament is not so good......
"That's right, Mrs. Shu didn't ask much at the time, she just said that she let us go for the sake of your face, and let us follow the housekeeper to the tent to get three hundred taels of silver, and then ...... I asked the old man who sent me out of the house what your name was, and then I knew that your surname was Lin ......" The big man's tone was a little excited when he said this, and his gaze at Lin Mei became more and more weird.
Lin Mei thought about it for a while, but still shook her head sincerely, breaking his illusion, "You should thank Mrs. Shu for letting you go and the three hundred taels of silver, because ...... At that time, I had already left the capital, and this matter really had nothing to do with me......"
"Miss Lin, you don't have to shirk...... I just remember your kindness...... the man didn't care about what Lin Mei said, waved his hand and said directly, "I will escort you back to Beijing safely, please rest assured, my eldest brother, don't look at his fierce voice and so rude, but he has a good heart, if he knows that you are kind to me, he won't embarrass you much......"
Seeing that his eyes were full of heat, Lin Mei couldn't help but be secretly frightened, and quietly stepped back, with a slight wry smile on her face, "Your eldest brother...... Man, it's really good......"
Forgive her for saying this unwillingly word, if it weren't for the sake of leaving this place, would she need to be so low-voiced?
Seeing that Lin Mei also agreed with his point of view, the smile on his face became even happier, and he immediately stepped out of the carriage, stood in front and intimately helped Lin Mei open the curtain, and said earnestly, "Miss Lin, please get off the car......"
Lin Mei glanced at Wang Huiyuan, who was still lying on her body trembling and looking around in fear, and felt very sad in her heart, although she didn't like Wang Huiyuan, but after all, she was also a fellow countryman, and it was naturally sad to see her like this now.
"That...... She's my best friend, you...... Can you plead with your eldest brother for me and let her go? We promise...... Absolutely no leaks about you! Lin Mei swallowed her saliva, glanced at Wang Huiyuan, who was full of pale faces, and couldn't bear it, the lively and willful girl more than two months ago was now tortured into this appearance, how could she not dare to hurt?
The man glanced at Wang Huiyuan, nodded hesitantly, and said helplessly, "Miss Lin, then I'll ask my eldest brother now, if he agrees, I'll send you back together......"
"That's great...... Lin Mei breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of her heart, her face looked good, and asked enthusiastically, "This little brother, I don't know what your name is, I can call you too." ”
Seeing Lin Mei's enthusiastic appearance, the flush on his face was so deep that he couldn't even hide his dark face, and said in a hurried tone, "My surname is Sun, and my nickname is Sun Er...... Miss Lin, just call me Xiaoer, they all call me that......"
"Little two?" Lin Mei laughed out loud when she heard the name, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and say, "Then I'll call you Xiaosun......
Sun Er scratched his head a little shyly and walked away.
Lin Mei sighed at this time, watched Sun Er walk away happily, rubbed her sore arms and calves, helped Wang Huiyuan up again, picked up the dry cakes and water bags that were thrown on the ground from the carriage, and asked, "Oh, do you want to eat?" ”
Wang Huiyuan endured a series of frightes, and her liver trembled non-stop, even if she listened to Lin Mei's question, she didn't react, she only held her legs and trembled.
Lin Mei sighed, broke half of the cake in her hand, wrapped the other half in oil paper again, and ate the remaining half of the dry cake with relish, and poured a sip of water from time to time, she hadn't eaten for more than ten hours, and now she naturally can't dislike it when she has food, it's good to have food, how can she be picky?
