Chapter 25 Three Lives
Tonggu Street was originally a mixed place, but now there is chaos again, Bai Qiaoxuan and Tong Yuqing are afraid of the safety of Xincheng, and they dare not directly reveal their identities to investigate. Bai Qiaoxuan could only be cheeky and squeeze a way out of the crowd, but none of the people around outside didn't want to know what was going on inside, and the three of them were pushed by the crowd, unable to move an inch.
Xin Cheng saw that the crowd was crowded, and he was afraid that Tong Yuqing would be injured, so he let her walk between him and Bai Qiaoxuan. It took almost all the three of them to get to the front and see the tragedy that was happening.
A large man with a strong body waved the whip in his hand and whipped a man lying on the ground. The man honestly lay on the ground and endured the brutality of the strong man without saying a word. Tong Yuqing speculated that he should have been tortured for the little girl who was firmly protected by him, because apart from the noise of passers-by, terrifying scolding and whipping, only the sound of the little girl crying and begging for mercy remained.
From the angry scolding of the big man, Tong Yuqing roughly knew what happened. The man on the ground should be an entertainer wandering from Puxi, and the girl he is protecting is a maid bought by the big man. This maid didn't know what she did wrong, which made her master angry, and when the master taught her, the entertainer didn't know how to protect her.
"You poor performer from Puxi dare to spread wild in Lao Tzu's territory?! Lao Tzu won't kill you today? You really can't find the north! Do you know who Lao Tzu's brother is?! In Pudong, even the Tong family dares to offend, I think you are tired of being crooked! ”
Tong Yuqing wanted to turn around and work with Bai Qiaoxuan to find a nearby patrol officer to deal with the endgame, but suddenly heard the person behind her mention the Tong family, and her eyes widened with anger.
Even if you bully others, you dare to affect Tong's reputation?!
Bai Qiaoxuan didn't have time to grab Tong Yuqing, she had already rushed back and grabbed the whip that was already stained with blood, Bai Qiaoxuan saw that the situation was critical, and hurriedly released the signal flare she carried with her, and summoned people to come here for reinforcements.
The scarred man who was lying on the girl's body turned his head to look at the man who had stepped forward, he had thought it would be a seven-foot man, but he didn't expect that it was a wisteria fairy who was firmly holding the wicked's leather whip. He looked at her indignant appearance, and felt that there was a Lingyun Jinzhu wind between her eyebrows, and such a sentence suddenly appeared in his mind:
Lingyun Jinzhu is a true scholar, a beautiful woman with wisteria flowers.
The corners of his lips slowly raised, and it was fitting to describe her like that.
"Whatever the sin this person committed, there is the law of the police to discipline him. It's not your turn to abuse lynching in front of the public! Tong Yuqing said righteously.
"Yo?! Another nosyman! Where did the little girl come from? It's really unbelievable! Since you want to save them so much, then Lao Tzu will even fight with you! As he spoke, he pulled the leather whip hard and wanted to throw Tong Yuqing to the ground, but as soon as he used his strength, the whole person fell to the ground with a big "bang".
He looked ahead angrily, only to find that it was not the little girl who was standing in front of him and looking down at him just now, but a man with a lofty spirit.
Bai Qiaoxuan looked coldly at this person lying at his feet, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked disdainfully, "Dissatisfied?" If you don't accept it, you can fight it. ”
The strong man got up and clenched his fist at Bai Qiaoxuan, but he couldn't even touch Bai Qiaoxuan's clothes, and after a while, the wrist he had just danced the whip was broken by Bai Qiaoxuan. Just as he was screaming, the patrol officers of the Garrison Department arrived, and they saw Bai Qiaoxuan wanting to salute and greet, but saw Bai Qiaoxuan's hinting gaze.
So the captain on duty tonight instructed his subordinates to pretend not to know Bai Qiaoxuan and the others, and routinely questioned them after dismissing the crowd.
Tong Yuqing listened to the little girl's intermittent crying and understood what happened tonight. The girl's name is Bi'er, her mother died three days ago, and she has no relatives in Yejin, so she wants to sell her body to bury her mother. Two days ago, the big man lied to her that he could help her bury her mother and let her go with him. But he didn't expect that after he ravaged her in every way, he didn't help her bury her mother at all. Today, she finally escaped from the devil's cave, but was caught and beaten by him. The person who protected Bi'er was from Puxi and played and sang on Gonggu Street, and when he saw a little girl about ten years old being beaten like this by a strong man, he stepped forward to persuade him, and if the persuasion failed, he proposed that Bi'er had received it, so there was a scene that Tong Yuqing and the three of them saw at first.
After the captain pretended to teach Bai Qiaoxuan a lesson, he took his subordinates to press the strong man back to the garrison station.
After the patrol left, Tong Yuqing stepped forward to investigate the injuries of the artist and Bi'er, although the red marks on Bi'er's body were terrifying, but there was no blood, but the clothes on the artist's back had oozed a little blood, and the wound might become infected if not treated in time, so he took them to the hospital with Bai Qiaoxuan and Xin Cheng first.
After sending the two into the consultation room, Tong Yuqing turned around and apologized to Xin Cheng: "I'm really sorry Xin Gongzi, I impulsively led you into a crisis." ”
Xin Cheng hurriedly helped Tong Yuqing, who was bent towards him, "What Miss Tong said, you can't be blamed for this." ”
"Thank you for your understanding."
After a while, the three of them saw the entertainer slowly walking out of the consultation room, Xin Cheng hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and looked at Bi'er's consultation room, "This son has already come out, why hasn't that little girl come out yet?" ”
The other three people felt strange when he said this, and Tong Yuqing went to Bi'er's clinic to look for her, but found that there was no one in the clinic except the doctor.
"Doctor, what about the patient just now? It's that little girl. Tong Yuqing asked.
"She has already left, and she asked me to thank you on her behalf, saying that she didn't want to trouble you anymore and went to Ying'an to join her relatives by herself."
"She doesn't have a penny on her, how can she go to Ying'an?" Tong Yuqing was a little angry, how could this person leave alone without even saying hello?
"Well, everyone has his own way, since she wants to go, let her go."
Tong Yuqing looked back at the person who said this and asked, "You have suffered it on her behalf, so she should also resign to you, right?" It's strange that you don't want to care about her, what did you do to save her just now? ”
"This gentleman is right, we have already helped those who should be helped, and how to go the rest of the way is Bi'er's own business." Bai Qiaoxuan persuaded, and quietly signaled to Tong Yuqing, Xin Cheng was still hungry.
Tong Yuqing heard both of them say this, and if she continued to entangle, it seemed that she was making trouble unreasonably, and thought of the presence of the guest in Xincheng, so she said: "This is very close to the Xinrong Hotel, let's go there to eat something," and looked at the entertainer again, and asked, "Mr. want to go with us?" ”
The artist gave a gift, "but it was disrespectful." ”
Tong Yuqing and the three of them have been busy since the afternoon, and they don't feel it outside, but as soon as they enter the hotel, they feel very hungry. Tong Yuqing looked at the other three, but found that they all looked at her in unison, she immediately understood what they meant, and did not politely excuse herself, and directly ordered the five most prestigious dishes of Xinrong Hotel: Zijin Palace, Huoyun, Zhu Yuhuan, Huailiuyin and Wuyun Tuoyue.
Thinking that there was another Puxi person here, Tong Yuqing said again: "Make a small portion of noodles for this gentleman, the taste is lighter, and he has injuries on his body." ”
After the waiter went out, Tong Yuqing took a sip of water, and suddenly felt that someone was staring at him, and looked up to find that it was the entertainer. The two looked at each other, and the artist's face was stunned, and he said unhurriedly: "When Miss rescued people just now, I felt that you were heroic, and now I see Miss Resolute and resolute, saying one thing or another, and I feel even more strange in Xia, I have never seen a woman as heroic as you in my life." If that's what you expected, you should be from the Hou Keeper's Mansion, right? ”
Hou Men General's Mansion? His unintentional behavior made him guess his identity so quickly, Tong Yuqing secretly blamed himself for acting recklessly today, and said after thinking: "Mr. said funny, we have been together for an hour, and I haven't introduced myself to you yet." The little woman's surname is Xu, her name is Ruo, if she is wood, and if she is beautiful. It's just that I often go out to do things for my family, and I can't drag mud and water, you really lift me up. ”
The entertainer looked at Tong Yuqing's clothes from head to toe, knowing that she was hiding something from herself, but it was inconvenient to dismantle the life-saving benefactor, so she followed her and said: "I see, no wonder Miss Xu is extraordinary." I haven't had time to introduce myself to you, and my name is Qing Zi Ting, Ai Qing Zhiqing, the son of a courtier, and Tingzhou Zhiting. I don't know the names of the two brothers? As he spoke, he looked at Bai Qiaoxuan and Xin Cheng.
"Under the surname Qiao, a single name meaning word. The tree of the tree, the meaning of comfort. Tong Yuqing couldn't help but feel funny when she heard Bai Qiaoxuan's name, and took the word in the middle of her and Qiu Yiyou's names, and he couldn't figure it out.
"Lin Rui, Shuangmu Lin, auspicious Rui." Xin Cheng saw that Tong Yuqing and Bai Qiaoxuan both used aliases, and he also made one up at random.
After everyone introduced themselves, the back kitchen had already begun to serve food one after another. After the meal was served, Qing Ziting raised the teacup, "Qing Mou replaced the wine with tea, and toasted the three of you with a glass, thank you Miss Xu, Qiao Gongzi, and Lin Gongzi for saving their lives." ”
"Mr. Qing is polite." The three of them said in unison.
After moving the chopsticks, the four of them chatted with each other, and the most they talked about was the dishes on the table and the food and weather in Yejin.
Tong Yuqing saw that Qing Ziting had never touched the fire burning clouds, and said casually: "Mr. Qing, try this fire burning clouds, this crucian carp is fat and juicy, and the red peppers in it are all freshly picked, which is very fresh." ”
"No need, Miss Xu, I can't eat spicy food, I can't touch it at all on weekdays, and if I touch it, I will have a rash." Qing Ziting hurriedly excused himself.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know you couldn't eat spicy, I knew I wouldn't order this dish." Tong Yuqing said.
"It's okay, I don't eat it, you and Gongzi Qiao and Gongzi Lin still eat it." Qing Ziting said and talked about another dish, "This purple gold hall, the name is really ingenious, I don't know that I think this is the royal food in the palace." The purple eggplant is soft and glutinous, and the three-yellow chicken is delicate, and it should be simmered and slow-cooked for two hours before it can be so fragrant. ”
"I didn't expect Mr. Qing to know something about cooking." Bai Qiaoxuan praised.
"Living alone, you can't understand it." Qing Ziting laughed at herself. Tong Yuqing listened to his meaning as if there were no relatives at home, in order to avoid mentioning other people's sadness, he talked about Zhu Yuhuan's dish, "The giant shrimp in Zhu Yuhuan is the ingredients that were salvaged from the sea this morning and directly airlifted, the vermicelli is the most famous master in Pudong, and the sauce is Xinrong's unique secret recipe for decades, so it is fresh and fragrant, and it is very unique." ”
"This piece of crystal clear jade surrounds this pair of giant shrimp, and the appearance is also very exquisite. Also, I thought that this acacia willow shade was made of ordinary green vegetables, but I didn't expect it to be really woven from willow leaves, but I am really not used to this taste. Xin Cheng said.
"Lin Gongzi is naturally not used to eating this dish for the first time, although the willow leaves taste bitter, but they have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, most of the food we eat every day is too oily, eat some willow leaves just to nourish the heart and spleen, regulate the liver and lungs." Tong Yuqing replied.
Qing Ziting said: "I see, today Qing someone is really taught." Not only did I taste delicious food, but I also knew a healthy dish. It's just that where do the willow leaves come from in this winter? ”
Tong Yuqing replied: "Xinrong's own family planted in the greenhouse, because Huailiuyin is the signature dish of this family, almost all seasons will have guests to order, some people also come to Yejin, just to eat this dish, Xinrong can not let the people who come to the house disappointed." ”
"Speaking of which, I'm not afraid of everyone's jokes, I only know these four dishes and one soup." Qing Ziting said with a smile.
"Haha...... This dish is indeed famous for a long time, the seaweed is like a dark cloud suspended on it, and the pigeon's egg is like a bright moon, relying on the dark clouds. Tong Yuqing said.
……
When a few people had eaten about the same, Qing Ziting raised the teacup again, "Thank you three for your hospitality, so that Qing Mou can taste such a sumptuous meal in a foreign land." Qing also wanted to thank Gongzi Qiao and Gongzi Lin for being injured and unable to drink. When the two of them come to Puxi on the other day, Qing will definitely accompany the two to drink a few glasses, and we will not get drunk and return at that time. Today, the end of the world is far away, and we are destined to see you again. ”
"Then Qiao will write down Mr. Qing's words, and we will meet later." Bai Qiaoxuan also raised the teacup.
Xin Cheng and Tong Yuqing also raised their glasses together, and the four of them touched the cups together, "See you soon, there will be a period later." ”
