Chen Xi'er glanced at him and said, "This is our family's secret, you don't inquire about it, and you can't tell what you know, understand?" ”

"I understand, I won't say it, but I want to help them, so I want to understand."

"Just you?" Chen Xi'er looked at Ling Kun, who was in a coarse cloth short coat, and said contemptuously: "Can you help them, where do you live tonight?" ”

Ling Kun touched his nose and smiled bitterly: "There really isn't." ”

"Hmph, it's all like this, I'm embarrassed to brag." Chen Xi'er said disdainfully: "But thank you for saving me just now, your martial arts are really good." ”

"Then shouldn't you take care of your savior?" Ling Kun was cheeky and begged, he really had no choice.

"But I don't have any money (shēn), so I give it all to my aunt." Chen Xi'er was embarrassed.

"What's going on in your house? You're a lady from the richest family, and you only have five taels of silver on (shēn)? Ling Kun was puzzled.

"We never bring money, and we usually spend money on people, but today we secretly came out to see my aunt, so we didn't bring anyone."

"See your aunt and still sneak around? What the hell is going on, you say it, I won't tell anyone, and besides, I'm just a passer-by, and I'll leave immediately. Ling Kun begged.

Chen Xi'er squinted at Ling Kun and hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, just tell you a story, you must not tell it to others." ”

"Don't worry, if I say it, I will be struck by lightning." Ling Kun swore that he had already been struck by lightning anyway, and he was not afraid.

Chen Xi'er leaned over to Ling Kun (shēn) and spoke in a low voice. Judging from the back, it looks like a pair of intimate lovers, but from the clothes, it is extremely incompatible.

"My aunt's name is Chen Yuqi, she was very beautiful when she was young, and she was the first beauty in Jiaozhou."

"Is it prettier than you?" Ling Kun asked with a smile.

"Oh, hate, don't you listen?" Chen Xi'er said with cross-eyes, but she didn't seem to be angry, how could a girl be really angry when she was praised for her beauty.

"Listen, listen, you continue."

"My dad said I looked alike with my aunt, so I guess it's about the same. My grandfather also likes my aunt very much, and wants her to marry the son of a high-ranking official on Jingdong East Road, so that we can take care of our family's business. ”

Who would have thought that when a high-ranking official came to propose marriage, my aunt suddenly announced that she was pregnant. Grandpa refused to believe it and called the doctor to check it, but it turned out to be true. ”

"My home is Jiaozhou

The richest man is also a bit of face, his aunt is unmarried and pregnant, and she refuses to explain who the wild man is, which has become an unprecedented scandal for the Chen family for a while. My grandfather was so angry that he expelled my aunt from the house, and he ordered that no one in the family could help her. ”

"After my aunt left, there was no news, no one knows where she went, just two years ago, my father and my mother gave Wang Zhizhou a New Year's greeting, and saw my aunt cleaning in the yard."

Ling Kun interjected: "It's okay this time, your father and your mother should help them." ”

Chen Xi'er shook her head and said, "My father and my aunt have been feeling good since childhood, and after seeing my aunt, they naturally wanted to help her, but they were scolded by my mother and brought back." ”

Ling Kun frowned and said, "Is your father very afraid of his wife?" ”

"Yes, my grandfather retired in the past, and my father took over the family business, because of his kindness and softness, the business is not doing well day by day. In the end, my grandfather called my mother to be the housekeeper, but my mother was more powerful in business than my grandfather, and now my mother is the big shopkeeper of the Chen family. ”

"After they went home, my mother was afraid that my father would secretly go to see my aunt and supervise him strictly, so my father had no choice, so he secretly asked me to find my aunt and help them bring something by the way."

"It's just that our family's expenses are all held by the subordinate (cāo), and my mother reports the accounts uniformly, and we don't have much money on the (shēn), so we can't help them much."

Ling Kun frowned and said, "Your aunt named the child Chen Xunzong, because she was still thinking about that man, but in this way, that man didn't appear again at all, maybe he was a scumbag." ”

"My father guessed that maybe it was a Tubo, because during that time, there was a Tubo son who saved my aunt, and the family even held a banquet to entertain him."

Ling Kun clapped his hands and said, "That's right, it must be a native of Tubo, just look at Chen Xunzong's appearance." ”

Chen Xi'er shook her head and said, "I don't know, and I haven't seen the Tubo people. ”

"Your aunt must still want to find that Tubo man, but it's a pity that she sold (shēn) to Wang Zhizhou for her livelihood, so she can't do it so far, hey, it's really pitiful, I must help them."

"Poof." Chen Xi'er sneered: "If you don't brag, you'll die, look at you like this, is it someone who can come up with 200 taels of silver?" ”

"Alas, I really can't get it out now."

The two chatted all the way, and they were very speculative, and in a blink of an eye they walked to the front of a luxurious mansion, with a large door and two mighty stone lions standing at the door.

"This is my home." Chen Xi

Pointing to the gate, he said.

"Oh, then you go in, there will be a date later."

"But what do you do? Where do you live? Chen Xi'er asked.

"Or do you take me in and I'll stay in your room secretly?" Ling Kun teased.

Chen Xi'er's face turned red and said angrily: "I, don't be delusional, I'm not my aunt." ”

"Hehe, okay, you leave me alone, go inside." Ling Kun said with a smile.

"That's not good, how can you say that you are also my savior, you go back with me, I will ask my mother to give you some silver."

At this moment, a luxury carriage stopped at the door, and a majestic voice came: "Xi'er, what are you doing, who is that?" ”

Ling Kun looked up and saw a noble lady in her 40s, dressed in fine clothes, white and beautiful, with a majestic god (qíng), and a domineering female president.

Chen Xi'er walked a few steps closely, and said, "Mother, I went out and was almost snatched away by Wang Zhizhou's family, but he saved me." ”

It turned out that the person in front of him was Zhou Jiaru, the current big shopkeeper of the Chen family, no wonder he had such momentum.

Zhou Jiaru frowned and looked at Ling Kun, saw that he looked like a (jiàn) person, and said to his subordinates: "Give him two hangings of money and let him go quickly." ”

Oh, this richest man is really generous.

"Mother, he is my savior, why do you give two dollars? He has nowhere to eat now, he has nowhere to live, and we have to help him. Chen Xi'er said unhappily.

Zhou Jiaru was even more disdainful when she heard this, and sneered: "It turns out that you saved Xi'er just to solve the problem of food and shelter? What kind of life-saving benefactor, these poor people have the most eyes, and when they save you, they think about what they want, otherwise who will offend the prince with their lives. ”

As he spoke, he pulled Chen Xi'er and said, "Go, go back, don't run around alone in the future, don't associate with these (jiàn) people, do you hear?" ”

"Mother." Chen Xi'er broke free from her mother and said angrily: "After all, he is my savior, if it weren't for him, my daughter would be ruined now." ”

Zhou Jiaru glanced at her daughter, turned her head to Ling Kun and said, "Okay, no matter what kind of heart you have, since you saved my daughter, then I will give you a way to live, go to my dock to unload the goods, have food, shelter and wages, a man should earn money with his hands in a down-to-earth manner, instead of engaging in these crooked ways." ”

Ling Kun couldn't cry or laugh, he saved people with good intentions, how could he become a crooked and evil way? This big shopkeeper is really wonderful.
