On the corner of the street, the little girl lay on her mother's corpse and cried loudly, her condition was unbearable, the onlookers couldn't bear to leave for a long time, and Han Fei also sighed. The little girl is emaciated and has no relatives and no reason, how can she handle her mother's funeral?

At this time, everyone seemed to ignore the question, how did the little girl and her mother get here?

Han Fei and the onlookers took the initiative to help, bought coffins and other funeral items separately, hired an ox cart, and sent the little girl's mother to a mass grave outside the city for burial.

During this period, I also fully witnessed the tenacity of the little girl who has honed her character since childhood. Although her expression was sad, she was still methodical and beyond the boundaries of her age. All the expenses for her mother's burial, she stubbornly insisted on paying with the silver taels given to her by Han Fei, and no longer accepted alms from others.

After handling the funeral of the little girl's mother, Han Fei lost the interest of shopping, his expression was sad, and he walked back silently.

"Master, look ......"

Han Fei heard Ling'er's shout, and when he looked back, the little girl was not far behind them.

"What are you doing with us?" Han Fei asked suspiciously.

The little girl took a quick step, knelt in front of Han Fei, and said in a mournful voice: "Thank you Gongzi for helping and burying her mother, the slave family voluntarily sold herself into slavery, and the son gave out the silver taels, which is equivalent to buying the slave family, and the slave family naturally wants to go to the house as a slave!" ”

"Han gave you the silver out of your filial piety, not to buy you, you are free, you don't have to go to my house to be a ring!"

"Childe, my mother said when she was alive that you must be trustworthy, and the slave and maid have already received the child's silver, and they will never regret it! Moreover, the slave and maid have been wandering with their mother, and when the mother dies, the slave and maid have nowhere to go...... Ask the son to accept the slave and the maid! ”

The little girl's mournful voice, Ling'er was very emotional, and she also knelt in front of Han Fei and begged: "Young master, this sister is so pitiful, she will definitely be bullied to death by bad people when she is out, you can accept her!" ”

"Get up, all of you!" Han Fei glanced at the little girl up and down, and sighed: "What is your name, where is your ancestral home, and why did you end up in Jinling?" ”

The little girl bowed and replied: "My son, the slave is called Lan'er, a native of Jiujiang Prefecture, Jiangxi, the family originally did some business, but it was not well managed, and the debts were high, and the father died of grief, and the mother sold all the family property to pay off the debt. The mother took the slave and maid to beg all the way and rushed to Zhenjiang Mansion to join her mother's house, but ...... The mother's family was unwilling to accept it, and the mother was ashamed and angry, so she resolutely left Zhenjiang Mansion with the slave and maid, and lived a life of wandering and begging, and soon after arriving in Jinling City, the mother became seriously ill......"

"Alas, you're also in a rough life...... Han accepted you, you are the Han family from now on, as long as you work diligently, Han will not treat you badly! ”

"Slave, thank you young master for taking it in!" Lan'er knelt on the ground excitedly and kowtowed a few times.

"Get up!" Han Fei instructed Ling'er: "You take Lan'er back to the house to freshen up and change clothes first, and let Yinxin arrange it!" ”

"Yes!" Ling'er took Lan'er's hand and said happily: "Sister Lan'er, let's go back to the house, our house is lively, and Mrs. is very kind to her subordinates......"

Han Fei looked at the backs of the two little girls, shook his head and sighed, "Under the aura of the prosperous age, there are still many people struggling for survival!" ”

Han Fei walked forward and saw a teahouse on the side of the street that was quite lively, so he walked in, asked for a pot of good tea, and sat at the window to browse the street scenery.

“…… Have you heard? The price of that house has been reduced again, and it is a pity that such a large house, which is said to have been built with hundreds of thousands of silver, has now been reduced to 1,000 taels of silver, and no one cares about it......"

"Who would dare to ask for such a murderous house? How many heads of households have changed in that house so far, and which one of them didn't just move in and escape? Lives matter! ”

"Yes, I heard that Jiangxi businessman was so anxious that he jumped to his feet!"

"Who made him greedy for cheap ...... in the first place"

The word "murderous house" attracted Han Fei's attention, he didn't believe in any haunted things at all, and after the two guests left, he called the teahouse guy, gave him a tip of dozens of yuan, and said with a smile: "Little second brother, what did the two guests talk about just now, what's going on?" ”

"It's the first time you've come to Jinling, right?" The shopkeeper smiled and said: "The murderous house in the north of the city has been circulating in Jinling for several years, it is said that it was built by an official, and the house was built not long ago, the official was beheaded, and the house was not registered as an official. Since then, it has been rumored that the back garden of the house is haunted, and many of the main families have escaped, and the price of the house has dropped again and again, and now the owner of the house, Jiangxi businessmen, is in a hurry to return to his hometown, and only bid a thousand taels of silver, or no one is willing to ask for it! ”

Han Fei pondered for a moment and said, "Little Second Brother, do you know that Jiangxi businessman?" ”

"Childe, the younger nephew used to be a buddy in the Jiangxi merchant's store, and he is also familiar with the merchant, I don't know what you command?"

"Okay, fifty yuan here, the little second brother is going to get a bowl of wine and drink, please go and inform the Jiangxi businessman and ask him to find me in the Han Mansion!"

Hearing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly persuaded: "Childe, that's a famous murderous house......

"Thank you little second brother for reminding me, I have other plans!"

Han Fei returned home, and Menzi informed the Xue family that the brothers and sisters were coming, and hurriedly rushed to the back.

The flower hall in the backyard was full of people, Wang Ruolan sat on the main side, Xue Baoqin on the left hand, and a strange and stunning girl on the right.

"Big brother, are you back?" Xue Baoqin saw Han Fei at a glance, jumped up to meet him, and said, "Big brother, let me introduce you, that is my sister Xue Baochai!" ”

It turns out that the stunning girl is Xue Baochai, the first talented woman in Jinling, no wonder there is a little resemblance between her eyebrows and Xue Baoqin's eyebrows. Han Fei smiled and was about to say hello, but Xue Zhen walked in front of him, bowed deeply, and said: "Brother Han, if Qin'er hadn't met you, the consequences would be unimaginable, and the younger brother is still afraid when he thinks about it now, Brother Han is my Xue family's great benefactor!" ”

"Second son Xue, you're welcome, this is all arranged by providence, God let me and Qin'er have a brother and sister fate!" Han Fei asked Xue Zhen to sit down, and said to Wang Ruolan: "Eldest sister, did you instruct the kitchen to prepare a banquet?" Second Prince Xue, Miss Xue and Qin'er, you must go back after dinner in the evening! ”

"The concubines have been ordered, they were originally going to leave, but the concubines were strong and left!"

At this time, Xue Baochai walked in front of Han Fei, his eyes were bright, he stared at him closely, and said coquettishly: "The slave family has long heard your legendary story, Han Qingshan who is famous in Shilin, Han Shenyi who saves the people, Han Dongjia who is rich in Jiajia, and Youzishan who pioneered the study of mind...... Don't deny it, the slave family knows that the wanderer must be you! ”

Han Fei saw Xue Baochai report a series of names, and knew that he couldn't hide this smart woman, so he simply didn't admit or deny it, and said with a smile: "Han Mou also heard about the demeanor of the first talented woman in Jinling, and today she is even more famous!" ”

"That's what others are talking about, Sister Lan is the number one talented woman in Jinling!" Xue Baochai's cheeks flushed, looked at Han Fei hopefully, and said, "Master Han, the slave family also wants to go to the people to declare and do things, I don't know if it's okay?" ”
