Chapter 72: The girl who came to pay back
"What's going on?"
Li Chengqian got up and looked outside.
Xiao Hatsuko reacted quickly and walked out.
In front of Li Chengqian, he was a slave.
But in front of these servants and maids, he is the master.
Looking at the panicked servants outside, Xiao Chuzi frowned and asked, "What is the noise, I don't know if Your Highness is going to rest?" ”
Seeing Xiao Chuzi come out, the servant was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Steward Zhou, there is a little beggar outside, I don't know His Highness." ”
"When we stopped, she forced her in."
"We can't help it."
"Know Your Highness?"
"Jokes."
Xiao Chuzi snorted coldly: "Let's go, take me to see." ”
When Xiao Chuzi walked out with the servant, he saw a group of domestic servants surrounding a little girl in ragged clothes.
The servants of the family were once explicitly forbidden by Li Chengqian, and they must not do anything to the common people unless there is an emergency.
Therefore, they are now just surrounding each other, and they don't dare to make any outrageous moves at all.
Xiao Chuzi walked out and looked at the little girl outside, only feeling that the other party was a little familiar, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
"You said you knew His Highness?"
The little girl nodded timidly: "Yes." ”
Immediately afterwards, she carefully took out a small hanging copper plate from her arms: "I'm here to pay back." ”
Pay back?
Who's going to pay for it?
Xiao Chuzi raised his eyebrows: "Are you going to pay back Your Highness's money?" ”
"Uh-huh......"
The little girl nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Before, I was sick, and His Royal Highness paid to save me, so I have to pay back." ”
Xiao Chuzi was just about to say something when he heard a voice beside him.
"Didn't you say it, you don't have to pay it back?"
Li Chengqian stepped out from behind Xiao Chuzi.
Xiao Chuzi, who was still imposing just now, suddenly lost half of his momentum, and stood behind Li Chengqian respectfully.
"Nope."
"My mother said that what you owe to others must be repaid."
The little girl shook her head and took two steps forward with the copper coin.
But before she could get closer, she was blocked by the surrounding family.
Looking at these fierce men, the little girl retreated timidly.
After thinking about it, she simply put the copper coin on the ground, and then looked up at Li Chengqian: "I'll put the money here, you remember to take it, otherwise it will be picked up by someone else tomorrow." ”
After the words fell, the little girl looked at the men around her, and then walked away slowly.
Li Chengqian stepped down the stairs and picked up the string of copper coins from the ground.
Looking at the thin back of this little girl, Li Chengqian's heart was inevitably a little distressed.
There were forty or fifty copper plates hanging on it.
She should have been making this money for a long time, right......
His luck is better, as soon as he comes to this world, he lives in the royal family.
If he hadn't gone to the north with Li Shimin, he might never have tasted hunger.
And the girl in front of her named Yuan Yuan, since she was born, eating a full meal is a luxury for her.
After a long time, Li Chengqian raised his head with a wry smile: "What a stupid girl." ”
……
Leave Li Chengqian's mansion.
Yuan Yuan returned to the thatched hut where he lived.
When she walked in the door, a woman was already waiting.
The woman's age was about twenty-six or seventeen years old.
Because of the rough work in the wind and sun all day long, her skin is very rough, and her palms are thick and short like mallets.
Seeing her daughter enter the door, the woman showed a loving smile: "The money was sent back?" ”
"Hmm."
Yuan Yuan sat on the edge of the earthen kang and lowered his head.
"What's wrong?"
"Not happy?"
The woman gently stroked her head: "If you owe money to others, you must pay it back, this is the duty of a human being." ”
"Mother, I'm not unhappy because of money."
The woman raised her eyebrows and asked, "Then what's wrong with you?" ”
"The money is gone, I can earn it."
Yuan Yuan said with some grievances: "It's just...... Their servants didn't believe me, and called me a little beggar......"
"That's because of that."
"It's okay for others to say a few words."
The woman smiled and took her into her arms: "We live our own lives, what do they do, are we two living together, unhappy, unhappy?" ”
"Happy."
Yuan Yuan leaned on her mother's arms and shook her little feet playfully: "No matter where I am, as long as my mother is with me, I will be very happy." ”
The woman chuckled, and from the package next to her, she took out two small pastries and handed them to Yuan Yuan.
"For the sake of being so sensible, my mother rewarded you."
Seeing the pastry, Yuan Yuan's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Jujube cake!" ”
She sent one of the jujube cakes to her mother's mouth: "My mother will eat it too." ”
"Mother has eaten it."
"No, no, my mother must eat together, otherwise I won't eat either."
The woman had no choice but to take a bite and put away the remaining half.
Seeing this, Yuan Yuancai finally began to eat his own piece of jujube cake, took a bite, and said with a bright smile: "Thank you, mother." ”
The woman looked at her with a smile.
Seeing her daughter's sensible appearance, she became more and more distressed.
She was originally a dowry maid of a large family, and married into her husband's family with the young lady.
At that time, she didn't like Miss Li, and she was sent there just to make up the numbers.
As for herself, it's nothing, it's just a different place to live.
It's just that she would never have thought that she, who didn't show up in anything, would be looked down upon by her uncle.
My uncle pestered her several times to no avail, so he asked people to drug her, and while she was unconscious, he forced her.
Later, when the young lady found out, the young lady was furious, ordered someone to beat her hard, and kicked her out of the house.
The young lady was of noble birth, and the uncle did not dare to disobey.
Besides, in the eyes of these people from large families, she is just a dispensable item.
And that's not the worst......
Not long after she was kicked out of the door, she found out that she was pregnant.
Nine months later, with nowhere else to go, she had to give birth to her daughter in a ruined temple.
Since then, the mother and daughter have been dependent on each other.
is also Yuan Yuan sensible and never causes her trouble.
Even at a young age, he went out by himself to find something to do and make money to supplement his family.
But the more sensible her daughter is, the more she blames herself as a mother.
She hated herself, she was obviously unable to raise her, why did she bring her into this world.
She hated herself, she could have promised to be her uncle's outer room, but she refused.
Although the outer room is not visible, it can also be rich in food and clothing.
The daughter will not suffer so much with herself.
But now, it's too late to say anything, and she can only hold her daughter tightly in her arms.
"It's all bad mother, it's mother who dragged you down......"
These words, she did not utter.
And Yuan Yuan's eyes were just full of doubts, and he didn't know what was wrong with his mother.
I don't know why my mother suddenly cried.
……
At this time, in the palace of the king of Zhongshan.
Li Chengqian finally saved up 10,000 points after he didn't know how many times he made everyone in the house resentful of him.
