Chapter 76: A Poor Girl

Several servants carried Yuan Yuan and threw her in front of a corpse covered with a white cloth.

One of them said coldly: "Let's see, is this your mother's ......?"

Yuan Yuan was frightened, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

Slowly lowered his head, looked at the corpse covered with a white cloth, and slowly reached out and tore the white cloth away.

When I saw the face under the white cloth clearly, tears instantly filled my eyes.

Under the white cloth, if it's not her mother, who else can it be?

The scrawny face was covered with scars, and it was evident that he had endured great pain before he died.

The man who seemed to be a housekeeper took out a small copper coin from his cuff: "This is the funeral fee given to you by your grandfather, bring people back, and bury them alive." ”

This is the first time that Yuan Yuan has felt the gap between the rich and the poor.

The rich are clothed and fed, and there are people waiting for them to do anything.

And the poor can only do the most menial work, lose their lives, and get nothing more than a copper coin and a sentence of "good life and burial".

Is the life of a poor man so worthless?

Human life is as cheap as grass, and there is glory and withering in the years......

Yuan Yuan pursed her lips tightly.

The housekeeper also seemed to see her pitiful, so he took out a small amount of money: "This money should be compensated for you, and it is enough for you to live for a while." ”

Yuan Yuan didn't reach out to take the money, but kept holding her mother's cold hand.

The housekeeper was helpless, so he forced the money into her arms.

Then he waved his hand and said, "Be sure to send them back to their accommodation." ”

Yuan Yuan has been looking at her mother's face all the time, and she has never spoken, and she hasn't even changed the expression on her face.

Even when the servants robbed her of her money, she remained silent.

"Looks really stupid."

"Alright, leave her alone, let's go."

"That's it, it's bad luck to carry the dead."

After several people finished speaking, they directly overturned the stretcher carrying the corpse and threw the corpse in the alley at will.

Then they turned and walked away, not looking back.

It wasn't until long after they left that Yuan Yuan's tears finally fell from his eyes.

She crawled up to her mother, pounced on her, and wiped the muddy water off her face with her own clothes, which had no good pieces of fabric left.

"Mother......

There were no other words, only the whispering of the voice calling for the mother.

That kind of appearance is like a fawn on the grassland, whose mother was bitten to death by a wolf, but she didn't want to leave, but only stayed by her mother's side, wailing lowly.

It's just that her mother will never answer her.

After the little girl with ten fingers of chilblains cracked and bleeding cleaned her mother's face, she stumbled out of the alley with her mother.

Came out into the street and knelt beside the body of his mother.

This scene is not strange in this era.

There is no need to shout, others will know what she is going to do.

But who would want to spend money for a girl who is thin and doesn't know how long she can live.

The people on the road walked back and forth, and they seemed to feel bad luck when they looked at her.

At this moment, a woman suddenly came over.

The woman looked at Yuan Yuan carefully for a long time, and finally looked down at the cold corpse.

Immediately afterward, the woman sneered: "It was really the Bodhisattva's manifestation that made this lowly prostitute die on the streets." ”

Yuan Yuan looked up at the woman.

"How?"

"You little bastard born of a shitty prostitute still dare to look at me?"

The woman waved her hand, and several evil servants appeared behind her.

"Go, throw the corpse of that shitty thing to a mass grave and feed it to the dogs."

If no one walked forward next to a few evil servants, they would go to drag the body of the mandarin maiden in the garden.

Yuan Yuan lay on his mother's body, dragging him stiffly, and his hands full of frostbite were bleeding.

A few wicked servants looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Then the woman said viciously, "Haven't you eaten?" ”

"Why don't you do what Madame Ben says? If this shitty prostitute can keep a whole corpse, you'll all fuck me off. ”

"No, my mother she's not!"

Yuan Yuan cried and roared at the woman: "My mother is not a prostitute, my mother is not." ”

"Your mother is a prostitute who specializes in hooking up with other people's men."

"Otherwise, how could there be such a little bastard as you?"

The woman looked at the wicked servants and said viciously, "What are you waiting for? Why don't you hurry up? ”

A few evil servants no longer hesitated, picked up the corpse and left.

Yuan Yuan pulled his mother's corpse, crying and pleading, but what was the use?

"Little bunny, let me go, let go......"

An evil servant raised his leg and kicked Yuan Yuan's stomach fiercely.

The painful Yuan almost fainted, but her hand still held her mother's arm and refused to let go.

Seeing this, the evil servant immediately planned to make up for two more feet.

"Stop it!"

A slightly childish rebuke came from afar.

The wicked servant looked up and saw a richly dressed boy with two young men approaching this direction.

Both boys were tall and large, one was relatively thin, and the other was as strong as an ox.

At this moment, the two of them followed closely behind their masters, not daring to leave a single step.

And who else could these three be?

It is nothing more than a new combination of Chang'an City after the three hooligans of the early Tang Dynasty.

Known as the trio, the pit daddy.

The members of the trio of pit dads are naturally headed by the eldest prince Li Chengqian, with the eldest grandson Chong and Cheng Huailiang as their right and left hands.

Li Chengqian stepped into the crowd and looked at this skinny guy.

At this time, Yuan Yuan, even if his hands were bleeding, even if he was kicked and almost fainted, he still clung to his mother's arm and refused to let go.

Li Chengqian shook his head and sighed: "What a stupid girl, if you stay in my house, won't there be no such thing?" ”

After speaking, he looked at a few evil slaves around him: "Why should you do it, why do you want to go, the rabbit is in a hurry and bites, don't deceive people too much." ”

The woman was also the child of a high-ranking official, and when she saw Li Chengqian at this time, she recognized his identity.

The woman hurried to give a few of the servants a look.

Immediately afterwards, several servants took the woman with them, and left without looking back.

Li Chengqian turned back to the eldest grandson and said, "Brother Chong, go back and call someone to help her bury her mother." ”

Changsun Chong nodded, and immediately turned around and went back to call someone.

Li Chengqian squatted on Yuan Yuan's side.

Maybe it's because of her pity.

Maybe it's because of her simplicity.

Or maybe it's because of her naivety.

Anyway, I don't know when he engraved the appearance of this little girl in his heart.

Li Chengqian took out a handkerchief from his cuffs and handed it to her.

Yuan Yuan took the handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Then she looked down at the handkerchief that had been soiled by herself, her face was full of apologies, and she whispered, "When I wash it, I'll return it to you." ”

"There's no need, I still have a lot of this kind of veil, so I'll give you this one."

Li Chengqian smiled lightly and said, "Come to my house to do things, and ensure that you have a full meal every day, as well as chicken legs." ”

Before, she did not promise Li Chengqian.

And this time, she still didn't agree to Li Chengqian.

She could have had a good life, but she didn't want handouts from others.

Especially the charity of the man in front of him.

Li Chengqian sighed helplessly and touched his waist.

Coincidentally, he usually brings some copper plates out, but today he didn't even bring a money bag.

In the end, he had to untie the jade pendant he carried with him and hand it to her.

"This should still be worth some money, let's use it for a living."

After saying that, he didn't care whether Yuan Yuan wanted it or not, he just got up and left.

And Yuan Yuan looked at Li Chengqian's back in a daze for a long time, for a long time......
