Xiao Er came over with three steamed buns and said, "Girl, the buns you want are all packed for you, do you think the small ones are sent to the house for you, or what?" ”

Ling Yi asked Zhi Yu to take the bun, but asked Xiao Er: "I heard the voice of a child just now, asking my mother to eat buns, I'm afraid that my mother is short of money, pity the child, you go to make another cage and send it to the child above." ”

Xiao Erha: "The girl is kind-hearted, and the little one will be sent to them, but if you ask, how should the little one reply?" ”

"There's no need to answer - when will your food be served?"

Xiao Er hurriedly said: "Wait a minute, I'll come soon, the little one will send the buns to the two of them first, in fact, it's also pitiful, I haven't come down once a day, and I only need a bowl of porridge for a while, and the two of them should be grateful to the girl." ”

Ling Yi waved his hand to signal that he was about to retreat.

Xiao Er bowed his waist again, respectfully retreated, and after a while, Mali's footsteps upstairs should have sent a bun to the couple.

After just a few words, there were footsteps on the stairs again, only this time it sounded a little more.

Xiao Er knocked on the door again and said apologetically: "Girl, the little one will send the buns to the two of them according to your instructions, but they will not accept it, if they thank the girl for her kindness in person." ”

Ling Yi motioned for Ori Yu to open the door.

Outside the door stood a mother and son, the woman looked to be in her thirties, and the child looked to be less than ten years old. Although the two were dressed in coarse linen clothes, they were very clean and tidy.

The child seemed to have never seen such a beautiful and noble person as Ling Yi, and he held his hands and hung his head crampedly.

The woman took the child by the hand and was about to kneel.

Ling Yi hurriedly stopped: "The man has gold under his knees. I'm just a stranger, a basket of steamed buns, I really don't need to do this. ”

The woman's eyes turned red with emotion. "Girl Bodhisattva heart, please accept the villain's worship."

The son will not be allowed to kneel, but the woman herself must kneel and prostrate.

Ling Yi shook his head helplessly and said to Xiao Er: "Add two more pairs of dishes and chopsticks here." ”

Xiao Er was stunned, could it be that he was going to sit at the same table with the mother and son? Thinking about it, he immediately went to get the dishes and chopsticks.

The woman excused herself in fear: "The girl gave us buns, and we are already grateful." How dare you sit at the same table with the girl again, for fear of disturbing the girl's eating, let's just go back to our own room to eat. ”

At this time, several dishes were already served on the table. The child stared at the food on the table and swallowed.

Ling Yi smiled kindly: "Don't care about these, these two are also my maids, and it will be lively to eat together, so sit down quickly." Otherwise, you'll look down on me. ”

The woman hurriedly waved her hand: "The girl is tormented by the little one." ”

Ling Yi motioned for her to sit down. Pull the child to sit next to him.

A child is a child after all, not to mention that it was the first time he had seen such a delicious thing, and he suddenly forgot about the crampedness, and sat on the stool with his buttocks, afraid that he would not be able to pull it away.

The woman had no choice but to sit down cautiously.

The dish was almost served, Ling Yi asked Xiao Er to go out, and did not agree. No one should be allowed to come in and disturb their meals

The people who give the money are all uncles, let alone a woman with an extraordinary status like Ling Yi. Xiao Er said to himself that he didn't dare to disturb and respectfully retreated.

Ling Yi sandwiched a chicken leg between the two of them, and said with a smile: "Don't be formal, eat as you like, anyway, I can't finish eating so much, I can't waste it." ”

The child's eyes lit up, and he couldn't resist the temptation of the food, so he grabbed the chicken leg and nibbled on it.

The woman reminded him to pay attention to some images, and at the same time picked up chopsticks and ate them herself.

"I look at the eldest lady, it seems that she came from far away, and there are no relatives in Beijing?" While eating, Ling Yixian asked.

The woman put down her chopsticks and sighed, not knowing what she thought, and her eyes instantly became rosy.

The child also put down the chicken leg in his hand, and the table suddenly fell silent.

Ling Yi paused and said apologetically: "It seems that I shouldn't have asked, auntie, you eat, when I didn't ask." ”

"We're here to sue the judge." The child shouted.

The woman's face turned pale in a hurry, she glared at the child, motioned for him not to speak, and said to Ling Yi, "We are from Songyang Village. ”

"Songyang Village? But Songyang Village in Wu County? Ling Yi asked.

The woman was a little surprised, "The girl seems to be a deep boudoir woman, and she knows about our small village in the middle of nowhere. ”

Ling Yi said with a smile: "I like to read some miscellaneous books on weekdays, so I know a thing or two, and I am afraid it took a lot of effort for my eldest lady to enter Beijing." ”

As he was talking, he suddenly heard a commotion outside.

"You can't go in—" Xiao Er stopped at the door.

"If you get out of the way, if you don't get out of the way, I'll lift the table." A gruff voice rang out in the doorway.

The woman's face was anxious, and the child jumped off the table and said, "It's Uncle Huang, Uncle Huang is back." ”

Ling Yi asked Zhi Yu to open the door.

Xiao Er stopped at the door with his thin body, and behind him was a burly strong man.

"It's okay, it's someone you know, come in." Ori Yu asked Xiao Er to get out of the way.

Xiao Er smiled and hurriedly got out of the way.

The strong man hurriedly walked into the house, and when he saw that the woman and the child were fine, he put his mind at ease, and immediately looked at Ling Yi suspiciously.

The woman hurriedly explained, "It's—" She looked at Ling Yi in embarrassment, only to realize that she hadn't asked anyone's name.

"My surname is Ling." Ling Yi told her kindly, and explained to the strong man: "I see that the eldest lady hasn't eaten yet, this child is growing up, and he can't be hungry, so he took matters into his own hands and called the two of them over for a meal." ”

When the strong man saw Ling Yi's appearance, he knew that it was a noble lady, and arched his hand: "Miss Ling, it's rude, it's just that I have already bought food, Xiao Wu, eldest sister, let's go, don't disturb other people's young ladies to eat." ”

The woman was embarrassed to give Ling Yifu a salute, and Xiao Wu looked at the remaining half of the chicken leg in the bowl, looking reluctant.

"Just now Xiao Wu said that you came to Beijing to complain, don't hide a few, my Ling Mansion also has some status in Beijing, you have no power and power, if there is no help from outsiders, I'm afraid it will be difficult to succeed.

If you don't dislike it, the strong man might as well sit down with the eldest mother. Let Xiao Wu eat well, we can also have a good chat, maybe I can help you. ”

The strong man was visibly vigilant. The fox said suspiciously: "Miss Ling has never met us, and she doesn't know what we are doing, why do you want to help us?" ”

Ling Yi asked rhetorically, "Along the way, haven't you received help from others?" I see that the eldest lady is strapped for money, and she came from Wu County, I'm afraid that the road money is not enough, but since the three of them can get here smoothly. can also live in an inn, I guess there is no less help. ”

A touch of embarrassment flashed on the strong man's face, and he coughed dryly. After a moment's hesitation, he finally pulled up a stool and sat down.

Then the woman and the child sat down again.

Ling Yi asked Xiao Er to add another pair of dishes and chopsticks, and by the way, two more dishes were added.

"I don't know what to call a strong man." Ling Yi asked.

The strong man arched his hand and said: "The villain Huang Wei is the same villager as Sister Luo." This time I came to Beijing. It's also important. ”

"A few people who want to sue, I'm just afraid that your status is not low, otherwise you wouldn't have come all the way to the capital, have you seen Jing Zhaoyin?"

Huang Wei's face was gloomy: "The villain went out today just to see Jing Zhaoyin, but he didn't see anyone, and those people didn't look at the villain's complaint at all - the dog's eyes looked at the people's low things." ”

Ling Yi nodded: "Jingzhong is like this. If there is no one to refer you, your pleadings. It didn't even reach the man's eyes. ”

Huang Wei was shocked and looked at Luo and Xiao Wu.

Roche shook his head.

Ling Yi waited for their eyes to finish before he said, "I want to ask why I know that you are going to sue the emperor."

In fact, it is not difficult to guess that there is a state capital in Wu County, and you did not go to the state capital, but came to the capital, or maybe you went to the state capital first, but in the end it must be useless.

Therefore, you have worked tirelessly to come to Beijing with thousands of mountains and rivers, and someone told you that you can come to Beijing to sue the emperor, right? ”

Huang Wei looked at Ling Yi in astonishment, and after a long time, he exclaimed: "Miss Ling Bingxue is smart, her guess is right." ”

"I also know that the person who asked you to come to Beijing to complain should be a person surnamed Gong." Ling Yi said with a smile.

Huang Wei jumped up from the stool in astonishment as if he had seen a ghost, "How did the girl know, the girl is a friend of her benefactor?" ”

"Sort of, anyway, as long as you know, I won't be bad for you."

Huang Wei and Luo were overjoyed, and Luo was about to kneel down again, but was stopped by Ling Yi.

Luo Che wiped his tears with emotion, "I didn't expect to meet a benefactor's friend here, in Wu County, if it wasn't for the benefactor to rescue, Xiao Wu and I would have gone to Huangquan to see his father." ”

At the mention of his father, Xiao Wu's eyes turned red, tears fell and clattered, and he cried silently.

Ling Yi comforted: "Since the incident has happened, the most important thing now is to seek justice for Songyang Village." ”

Huang Wei saw her mention Songyang Village, thinking that the latter knew everything, so he no longer had any worries, and said bitterly: "Those dogs and things that disregard people's lives are not people.

So many people have died, and they still want to gag our mouths, if I don't stand up, the people of Songyang Village will die in vain, and I am sorry for the villagers. ”

Ling Yi also showed a distressed expression, and scolded him: "It's really not a human being, how can you be so unconcerned about human life, in this world, no matter how noble or low, it was all made by Nuwa Niangniang——

Rest assured, I can help with this matter, and I will not refuse, and please tell me what happened. ”

Huang Wei clenched his fists, and then slowly explained the matter.

It turned out that a batch of tin ore was discovered in Wu County three months ago, and the mineral resources of Northern Qin were not abundant, and all minerals were managed by the Department of Household Division, in other words, all minerals were royal property.

"Wu County was originally a poor place, the land was not easy to grow, and everyone had a very difficult life, but then a group of people from the government came and said that we took possession of the minerals without permission, took away our land, and let everyone under the age of 60 in the village do hard labor."

Weaving Fan listened to the grief and indignation, slapped the table and said, "Didn't you report to the official?" ”

"There is no place to go, but our parents and officials do not listen to us, and even those who go to work are not allowed to leave.

It's been three months, we're in there, we can't eat or drink, my brothers are falling one after another, and I've only recently escaped.

But I didn't expect it to be the final separation. A month ago, the mine collapsed, and no one inside was spared. ”

Ling Yi's eyes were deep, and she listened to him quietly. (To be continued......)
