Pandan narrowed her eyes and slowly straightened her waist straighter. Cao Lihuan walked over, fanned the wind in her arms, and said with a proud expression: "Yo, it turned out to be you, what are you doing here?" Could it be that someone in the family is locked up? ”

Xianglan didn't hear it, touched the sideburns on her head, and went to check the burden on her arm.

Cao Lihuan raised her voice and said, "I asked you, did you hear it?" ”

Xianglan raised her head and said lightly: "Cao Niangzi, I am no longer a maid, you should be respectful and polite." You have always boasted that you are from a famous family, but don't forget the upbringing of the young lady, shouting and screaming about the behavior of a shrew, you have not lived in the market for long, and you have forgotten even decency? ”

Cao Lihuan had never been provoked like this, and immediately his face was flushed with hatred, and when he saw Xianglan's eyes slightly red, it looked like she had just cried, and her heart was comfortable again, and she sneered: "I have a deep hatred with you, why bother pretending to salute." Chen Xianglan, has your father been taken to prison? As he spoke, he took two steps forward, stared at a pair of round eyes, and said with a hideous face: "When you framed me in the first place, did you think that you have today?" Also a day when it falls into my hands? Chen Xianglan, you ruined my future and wealth, and I definitely can't let you have a good time. ”

Xianglan was secretly shocked in her heart, her face was silent, the tip of her nose was against the tip of Cao Lihuan's nose, and she raised her eyebrows and said: "It seems that Cao Niangzi has good skills, I haven't seen her for a few years, and she can actually judge the case for the county magistrate." ”

Cao Lihuan sneered slightly: "Take out a little more silver, maybe you can save a dog's life for your father." "I won't just leave.

Xianglan was shocked, but she didn't think much about it, took out three taels of silver and handed it to the jailer, begging him to ask a doctor for Chen Wanquan's treatment, but the jailer refused to accept it, Xianglan added another two taels, and the jailer smacked her lips and said, "You didn't have a dream, you actually provoked Cao Niangzi." As the saying goes, 'take people's money and eliminate disasters with people', I can't take care of the people in this prison, and naturally I can't take the money. ”

Xianglan asked, "Why can't the official take care of it?" ”

The jailer picked his teeth: "Who doesn't know that in this yamen, Mrs. Cao is half a county master, she let out the words, can we take care of it......" Before he finished speaking, he closed his mouth, shook his head and left.

Xianglan stood in place for a moment, only to feel that her heart was blocked and heavy, like a ghost, and slowly walked out. As soon as she got out of the side door, she heard someone call her name: "Xianglan, Xianglan!" ”

Xianglan turned her head, only to see a woman in a blue cloth shirt hiding at the corner of the wall and waving to her, seeing her looking towards this room, she whispered a few times: "Xianglan! Xianglan followed the sound and looked over and found that the person who called her turned out to be a coincidence!

Siqiao has now changed into a woman's dress, with a green scarf around her head, her face is yellow, the flesh on her cheeks is thin, she is a lot haggard, and she is less than twenty years old. As soon as she saw Xianglan, she immediately dragged her behind the wall, poked her head to look right, and saw that there was no one around, so she turned around and said in a trembling voice: "I came with Cao Lihuan, and I just saw you from afar, so I secretly followed...... Xianglan, Cao Lihuan is a good friend of the county master, and Han Zhixian is obedient to her. Last night, I heard her discuss with Hui'er, saying that she would squeeze all your family's money and property, and that she would beat your father to death in just one and a half days, so that your family would be ruined and your money would be empty! ”

Pandan was taken aback, and her face turned white.

Siqiao panicked, lest someone see it, and looked left and right again: "Xianglan, your father...... Eighty percent can't be saved, and keep the silver......" After speaking, he pulled his legs and left, but stopped again, turned his head and hesitated: "I am also taking risks now...... Just pay back what you owe you last time, and don't hate me anymore......"

Xianglan moved her lips, but she couldn't say anything, only nodded slightly.

Siqiao seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and left in a hurry.

Xianglan only felt that her legs were weak, and her ears kept coiling the words "the good friend of the county", "beat your father to death in this half a day", "the family is ruined" and so on, leaning on the wall with one hand, and the words in her ears became a huge roar.

The sun was scorching, and Xianglan was dizzy, and she slid to the ground along the wall, covering her face. What now? She is a little folk girl, she is called every day, she can't be called the earth, and she can't watch her father die, but what can she do now? She couldn't wait to die for Chen Wanquan, and she couldn't wait to cut Cao Lihuan with a thousand knives. Tears trickled down her fingers.

At this time, someone heard in my ears: "Miss Xianglan, Miss Xianglan?" ”

Xianglan raised her head and saw Shuangxi standing in front of her, with a flattering smile on her face, leaning down slightly to look at her.

Shuangxi saw Xianglan with her face up, her eyes were full of tears, it was really a pear blossom with rain, I saw pity, I couldn't help but praise secretly, and my heart said that such a color, the strange way made the uncle fascinated. He smiled flatteringly: "Miss Xianglan, my uncle asked the girl to come over and talk about it." He pointed back. Xianglan looked in the direction he was pointing, and saw a silk carriage driven by two horses parked at the end of the alley.

Xianglan stood up hard, Shuangxi hurriedly wanted to help, and immediately retracted her hand when she thought of something, and just said, "Girl, slow down." But seeing Xianglan walking on the opposite road, he hurriedly stopped and said with a smile: "Where is the girl?" We're still waiting in the car. The girl didn't know that the uncle heard that something had happened to the girl's family, so he immediately set off. If he said something, Zhun Bao would be more effective than Buddha Zhilunyin, and Han Yaozu's old boy would be scared alive...... Girl, let's go, huh? ”

Xianglan hesitated when she heard Shuangxi's words, but she heard the sound of horses' hooves, and Jixiang had already driven the carriage over, and the curtain was lifted, revealing a heroic and cold face. Xianglan only felt a suffocation in her chest, although her face was calm, her hands had quietly clenched into fists. Lin Jinlou raised his eyebrows, looked Xianglan up and down twice, only beckoned, and put the curtain down.

Shuangxi immediately knelt on the ground, Jixiang bowed slightly, stretched out his arm and smiled: "Girl, please get in the car." ”

Xianglan had no choice but to hold Shuangxi's arm and step on Shuangxi to get into the car. Lin Jinlou was leaning on the satin pillow with a smile on his lips. There was a small table in front of him, with a few kinds of tea and snacks.

Xianglan sat on the side far away and called softly: "Uncle Lin." ”

Lin Jinlou nodded with a smile, pushed the tea on the table to Xianglan, and said, "Half a year ago, I was still jumping around, and I dared to use a hairpin to prick my throat and call at the master, how can I look like a frosted eggplant today?" ”

Xianglan glanced at Lin Jinlou. This man seems to be noble and awe-inspiring, elegant in demeanor, but in fact, he does things unscrupulously, without the style of a gentleman, and now her family is in trouble, it is the most difficult and helpless time, he will take advantage of the fire to rob. Pandan tucked her hand into her sleeve and dug her nails into her palm.

Lin Jinlou saw Xianglan hanging her head and not speaking, so she drank tea by herself, calm and leisurely.

For a long time, I only heard Xianglan bury her head and whisper: "My father was wronged and took the prison......"

Lin Jinlou waited for this sentence, but he remained silent, raised the tea bowl and took another sip.

Xianglan secretly glanced at Lin Jinlou, licked her dry lips, and said in a low voice: "Cao Lihuan became the county lord's friend, she hated me to death, and she was going to toss me to death, my father was beaten, and he was lying in prison with his breath, and he didn't let him ...... cured" said and choked up, and hurriedly wiped her tears with her sleeve.

Lin Jinlou stretched out his fingers to pick Xianglan's little chin, and his voice was low: "I want to get your father out, huh?" ”

Xianglan dodged uncomfortably, Lin Jinlou put down his arm, leaned on the pillow and laughed in a low voice: "Don't take you like this, little Xianglan, you count with your fingers, how many times has the master saved you, and now you are rushing over again, you little conscienceless, not only do you not know how to lift, but you also don't know what to do." ”

Xianglan was stunned for a moment, Lin Jinlou did save her, she should be grateful to Dade, but this man was too dangerous, and his attempts were too red, so she only wanted to escape far away.

Lin Jinlou turned sideways, leaned beside Xianglan, breathed at the root of her ear, and said: "Listen carefully, the original master herded sheep and graze, and didn't have time to worry about you, this time it's different, I got your father out of prison, you see who is not pleasing to the eye, the master will kill whoever gives you anger, if you blow up the hair and moth again, the master will be really annoyed, and he has to punish you severely, you know?" ”

Although he had a smile on his face, his expression and tone were majestic and unresistible. Xianglan wanted to say that my father didn't need you to save her, but now she was really desperate, and the appearance of Chen Wanquan lying in prison appeared in front of her eyes again, but Lin Jinlou wanted her to pay a huge price, and her eyes were blurry, biting her lip.

Lin Jinlou wiped the tears on her face with his fingertips, and said with a smile: "Yo, why are you crying again?" Tears of joy? ”

Xianglan wiped her face, calmed down, looked up at Lin Jinlou again, and said, "I'm not a concubine." ”

Lin Jinlou was stunned for a moment, then sneered, and before he could speak, Xianglan said again: "If Uncle saves my father, I will naturally ...... promised to be a girl, or an outer room, but I just wanted my uncle to get tired of me for three and five years, so he let me go...... I also don't marry anymore, and after sending it to my father, I went to Jingyue Nunnery to practice, and the second half of my life was accompanied by the ancient Buddha of the green light. ”

Lin Jinlou half-squinted and stared at the delicate and beautiful face of the woman in front of her, this girl is indeed very beautiful, like a flower shining on the water, the moon shining on the cold pond, and now that she has suffered such a disaster, she still straightens her waist and sits upright, without a trace of decadence. The women he has ever had are coquettish and charming; Glamorous as a peach and plum, cold as frost, it is not as elegant as her, like a quietly blooming orchid, which makes him difficult to give up several times, and sometimes forgets her, but then remembers it. Which woman is favored by him is not the appearance of the lintel of the ancestor Jideguang Sect, but this one, it is a white-eyed wolf who is not familiar with it. Lin Jinlou suddenly felt a wave of anger rise in his heart, leaned forward, the tip of his nose almost rubbed Xianglan, and said lightly: "Talk to the master about the conditions?" Do you deserve it too? ”RS
