Lin Xin had a map of the capital in his mind, and naturally knew that he was close to it at this time, so he whispered to himself: "It's not his route home, why is he going?" ”

The little Huazi naturally didn't know how to answer Lin Xin's question, so they stood in place with each other looking at each other, did not speak, and waited for Lin Xin to continue to command: "Then from today onwards, I still have to know Wu Qiongan's every move." ”

"Okay."

A few older children immediately agreed, and at this time, Dong'er came over with a basket of oil cakes, and the children who smelled the fragrance instantly surrounded them, only two slightly older ones were still in front of Lin Xin, looking at those meat cakes with the corner of their eyes.

Originally, this kind of thing should have been Xu Yaxian's, but she may be pregnant now, so Dong'er rushed to do these things, if those little Huazi didn't know the severity of their hands and collided with Xu Yaxian, it would be bad.

"My lord, there are fewer and fewer children on the street lately, I don't know what's going on."

The slightly older child thought about it and recounted his observations over the past few days.

"Is it missing?"

The child shook his head and said, "I don't know, but the beggar of a family of three I know, his children are gone, but they are not much sad, but a little happy, I asked tentatively, but they were silent, and immediately changed the subject." Therefore, the little one felt a little strange, so I asked the adults if you knew what the problem was. ”

"I'll be watching, and you guys have to be careful."

For the time being, the human heart has no clue about this matter, but decided to write it down and check it in the future.

Ying Xiang didn't get into the carriage this time, but just walked back with Qiu Li.

Now her every move will be spread out, and she is also a little at a loss, she thought that Lin Xin would meet her face, so that she could attract Wu Qiongan's attention, but what was it for the master to suddenly decide to let her marry him?

Ying makeup walked aimlessly, but inadvertently bumped into a person's arms.

When he raised his eyes, he saw Wu Qiongan's eyes with a look, and he did not shy away from holding the makeup and said, "Girl, watch your feet." ”

This expression never appeared in front of his eyes.

Ying Makeup was addicted for a moment, but soon came to her senses and said, "My lord, why are you here?" ”

Wu Qiongan pointed to the teahouse in front of him and said, "I was drinking tea on it, and I saw you walking down the street a little dejected, so I came down, but what happened?" ”

"Thank you for your concern, it's nothing, I ......"

"Look at the direction you came from, you just went to Lord Lin's mansion?"

"Your Excellency?"

"I know, you just went to thank Lin Xin for helping you, and I also have to thank him for letting me finally understand my mind."

When Wu Qiongan said this, he stopped talking, and instead said: "This is not the place to talk, I will visit you another day." ”

As he spoke, he instructed Qiu Li to help Ying makeup into the carriage, and the tone was indispensable, which startled Qiu Li.

"My lord, I don't want to go back for a while."

Wu Qiongan smiled, with a smile in her eyes, but more coldly, and said: "If you don't want to go back, it's better to drink tea with me, but they are all adults in the Hanlin Academy, I'm afraid they won't like it." But I really want you to stay. ”

Ying Makeup also felt the sense of oppression on Wu Qiongan's body, so she said: "The concubine knows, just drink tea, there are still some things in the building, I will go back first." ”

Until she returned to Huanxianglou, she was still in a trance, and she only felt that Wu Qiongan was like a different person. It wasn't until Peony sat in front of him that Ying Makeup restrained her thoughts, and said with indifference and alienation: "Peony, you really think about it, you want to redeem yourself." ”

The makeup is faint, looking at the peony, there is no joy or anger on his face.

"Girl, I've got it done...... It is my wish to have a husband to rely on. ”

As she spoke, Peony took out a stack of silver tickets from her arms and handed them to Yingxiang: "Girl, these are all my savings, and I want to redeem myself." ”

It's not a secret that Peony wants to redeem herself, the girls in the building know a little bit more or less, some with regret, some with envy, and more with mockery.

How many of the women who went out of this green building could have a good death in the end?

It's not that Peony doesn't know these things, but love overwhelms him, making her unable to see the road ahead clearly, which is full of thorns.

Lily, who is usually good friends with Peony, couldn't help it after all, or persuaded two sentences: "Do you really want to leave everything behind for a poor scholar?" Is it worth it? ”

They are finally living a different life from ordinary prostitutes, it is the time to enjoy life carefree and happy, but she should not give up for the sake of a dog man.

"Well, I really like him. I could tell that he really loved me. ”

Speaking of which, Peony showed an unusually happy smile, which made people feel that she seemed to be really, very sweet.

Lily is a little reluctant, she thinks that the son is not a decent gentleman at all, otherwise, just saw the peony, and followed her unrelentingly, how long have the two known each other? It's impossible to just love each other like that.

But looking at Peony's smiling face, she couldn't say anything, so she could only persuade in a low voice: "But she already has a wife at home, and if you go, you can only be small." ”

"He already has a wife at home?"

I didn't know about this matter, but my originally silent eyes changed slightly.

Seeing this, Peony glanced at Lily, and hurriedly said, "Girl, I am willing to be a small one." For a person like me to find such a home, it is already a mercy of God. ”

A wry smile appeared on Peony's face, which girl wants to be a concubine these days? It's a side room to say, and it's not a slave to say it, it's just a woman who came out of the green building, what qualifications do you have to ask to be someone else's wife?

"It's good if you don't regret it, the silver will be given to you, I don't want it."

Ying Makeup smiled and told Qiu Li to take the deed of sale of Peony and hand it to her.

"From now on, you are free."

Peony looked at the paper in front of him and didn't dare to reach out.

This represents her future fate, and the unknown fate makes her a little frightened.

She didn't expect Ying Makeup to promise herself so easily, she thought she would go through a lot of words.

"However, I have a request, even if he is a concubine, he should have a courtesy, and the date is set on the sixth day of the third month, waiting for him to hire someone to pick you up, so that the sisters in the building can send you."

Peony expected that Ying Makeup would make a request for herself, but she didn't expect it to be such a request, and her tears fell immediately, and she said, "Girl, it's me who is not good, if it weren't for me...... If you don't get angry, how can it make you angry? ”

"Everyone has a personal life, since you have chosen this path, I will naturally not stop you."

Ying Xiang picked up the teacup, looked at the person in front of him, and said in a soft tone: "Okay, there is still a month to go, you have to buy something decent." ”
