204 human traffickers
The movement on the table didn't attract anyone's attention at all.
Su Zheng and Changping were still excitedly discussing, whether to go to Suzaku Street or Chaoyang Street first.
There are many imperial merchants on Suzaku Street, and many of the shops are opened by powerful people. These people are all wealthy, so the lanterns hung out are very gorgeous and beautiful. There are also various lantern riddle guessing activities, and the rewards are very, very rich.
But Chaoyang Street is also good. There are many ordinary merchants here, and although the lanterns hung out are not pasted with gold and silver foil, they are magnificent and dazzling. But the lantern is expensive because of its novel and exquisite style, and it is also worth seeing.
The two argued endlessly, and Su Xuan, Chang'an, and Pian Pian blinked their eyes to see the excitement.
Changle's heart was slightly relieved when he saw this, it's good that no one sees her embarrassment, otherwise it will be embarrassing.
Thinking like this, Changle's eyes turned, and he suddenly met Wei Qingyao's gaze.
Did the little boy look at this place by accident, or did he come over when he heard her and her aunt's movements?
What kind of situation is it, Changle doesn't know. But she intuitively felt that she was afraid that the picture that had just come out of the embarrassment was fully seen by this person.
What a shame!
Changle was ashamed and hated to cover his little face and not see anyone.
Her little face was already red, but this time it was like a ripe tomato, and the red was dripping water.
But who can be blamed for this, blame yourself for being too greedy, otherwise you can't be seen as a joke.
If this person only laughs at himself, I am afraid that he will look down on the rest of the family because of this.
How good is that?
Changle pursed his petal-like rosy lips in confusion, and his brows were about to twist out pimples.
Who knew that at this moment, Wei Qingyao seemed to have swept her at random, slightly bowed his head to her, and then looked away and looked at Su Zheng and Changping who were speaking.
Changle: So she really thought too much just now? Wei Qingyao really just looked at it by accident, and didn't notice her embarrassment at all?
Whether it is or not, Changle can't say. But at this moment, her mood was slightly relaxed, but she was not as embarrassed and embarrassed as she was just now.
The meal was quickly used up, Changping put down the dishes and chopsticks, and after saying goodbye to Jinniang and the others, they were ready to go.
There were a lot of people who went out together, in addition to Chang'an Changping, Su Xuan Su Zheng, Ban'er and Wei Qingyao, the three of them also went.
This year, Jin Niang and Xu Erlang didn't go to see the Lantern Festival.
Jin Niang's past two days coincided with a small day, her body was not very comfortable, and Brother Rong became more and more recognizable, only pestering Jin Niang at night, and almost not letting her grandmother hug her, so she had to stay at home to take care of her son.
Mother Xu also didn't go out, she wanted to go back to Heyan Hall to worship the Bodhisattva.
Then there are only a few children who will go out today.
Even so, Jin Niang is not worried, because there are many grandmothers and little girls around a few people. Let's not mention that Xu Erlang asked Mohe and Huhe to take care of the children, let's just say that Wei Qingyao brought the inner guards with him, then he didn't eat dry rice. So a few children can't suffer a loss when they go out today, so what's not to worry about.
Despite this, Jin Niang also explained to a few people in Chang'an, asking them boys to take care of a few people.
Although Pian Pian said that she was older, but the little girl's force value was low, and she was born with flowers and moons, Jin Niang was afraid of meeting some prodigal sons, disrespecting her little girls, and then provoking them to not be able to play well.
In addition to Pianpian, Changle and Xiaoyuer are both young and also need special care.
As soon as Jin Niang told her like this, several people in Chang'an patted their chests to reassure her.
Su Zheng, the monkey, couldn't wait and promised, "Auntie, just wait, a few of us promise to protect the little aunt and them impermeable." If the little aunt loses a hair when they come back, you can settle the account with me. ”
Changping slammed his fist on Su Zheng's body, "Why are you robbing my lines?" Is that what you should say? Obviously that's what I should have said. ”
Su Zheng laughed with Changping again.
The two were fighting, and when they went out, they reconciled as before, Changping even patted Su Zheng's arm and said seriously, "Your task today is to push me in a wheelchair, you listen to me, if something happens, you leave me behind and run away, be careful when I go home, I'll hit you with a bloody head." ”
Su Zheng ran forward as if he were pushing Changping's wheelchair, and at the same time promised without distraction, "Okay, okay, you put 110,000 hearts on me." Even if the sky fell and the ground fell, I folded myself into it, and I made sure that you were unharmed, otherwise you would beat me when you turned around. ”
Su Zheng promised to be very good, but in fact it was not like that at all.
It's also to blame these two crows, the Lantern Festival in Beijing has been held for decades, although there have been a few small incidents, but there has never been a stampede involving human life.
I don't know if I was cursed by these two demon kings of the mixed world today.,The shelf that guessed the lantern riddle at the lantern festival suddenly collapsed because of poor weighing.。 The lanterns on the shelves fell and burned one by one, and in an instant the gas was on fire.
The people were stunned.
Because he had to take care of the disabled and sick Changping, he was forced to stay under the lantern rack and couldn't go up, but the eldest brother and Chang'an took the little aunt, Changle and Xiaoyu'er up.
Now that the shelf has collapsed, the fire is still a trivial matter, and the most terrible thing is that if a person is crushed underneath, it is really a life of death.
Su Zheng forgot Changping in a panic and rushed inside.
Changping came back to his senses and pushed the wheelchair to pass, but he was picked up by Mohe and thrown to the guards behind him, and he entered the sea of fire with Huhe.
The few people in Chang'an had just entered, and they were still on the periphery of the lampstand, and the direction of the lampstand collapse was exactly the opposite direction of where they were, so several people were safe at this time.
It's just that I was so frightened, I was shocked, my legs and feet were weak for the time being, and I couldn't take a step.
Mohe Huhe came in time and rescued several people. A few people were unharmed, which is reassuring.
But now is not the time to rest assured, as soon as the lampstand collapsed, countless people were affected, and now the entire Suzaku Street is in chaos, full of crowded and screaming crowds, plus the nearby are all wooden buildings, with the northwest wind instantly became a prairie fire, now if you don't go out quickly, you can't get out safely today.
Changle picked up Xiao Yu'er, and the two were carried on their backs by Mohe. In the panic just now, Chang'an accidentally broke his foot in order to protect Xiao Yu'er, and he was carried by the Huhe River at this moment. The remaining two people, Su Xuan and Pianpian, were also firmly protected by the little girl and the grandmother who just happened to be squeezed in.
A group of people squeezed out hard, but at this moment, there was a wail of "dead man" from the other side, and there were burning people with raging flames all over their bodies fluttering everywhere in order to survive, and the people of Mohe were quickly dispersed by the flow of people.
Pian Pian was also flustered, but when she was separated, in addition to her grandmother, there was also Su Xuan, which made her feel more at ease.
But later, even Su Xuan was squeezed away, and Mama wanted to grab her hand, but she was even more forcefully broken, and when her heart was on the ground, she jumped up quickly.
Her instincts told her that something was wrong, something was wrong!
She seemed to be deliberately isolated from others, but she had little strength, and she didn't even have the strength to struggle and resist at the moment, so she could only be slowly squeezed out in the direction of the crowd.
In the end, Pian Pian was squeezed into an alley, which was so dark that there was no figure in sight. And the people who had squeezed her earlier dispersed in an instant, as if they were in a hurry to complete other tasks, and ran away without any nostalgia.
Pian Pian ran out without thinking about it, but at this time, the small door on one side of the alley opened silently, and there was a torch to light up this side of the world.
Out of the small door was a woman with a black mole on the corner of her mouth. This woman had a mean face and a thin body, and after one glance, she looked away and looked at the other person, but suddenly felt that this person was a little familiar, and she couldn't help but look at it again. Seeing this, Pian Pian sighed in her heart, isn't this the matchmaker!
Guan Matchmaker's wife is the official media who had said goodbye to Pian Pian earlier, and she introduced Pian Pian to the son of the Zuo Shicheng family. It's a pity that the left servant was sentenced to death for corruption and perverted the law, and his family was ruined. And the matchmaker caused the innocent and tragic death of several little girls because of being a fake matchmaker, and was finally sentenced to exile.
Didn't they all say that this person was exiled to Lingnan? Why is it in the capital again? Although she didn't look like she was having a good life, she was very thin, and her face became more and more mean. But no matter what, people live in the end. And from the Lingnan exile to the capital, what happened in between?
These things flashed through her mind in her mind, and then she thought again, so was she squeezed into this alley this time, did the matchmaker do it on purpose, or did they happen to do evil, and she fell into her hands very unfortunately?
Pianpin's doubts were quickly answered, because when the matchmaker saw her, the look on her face was even more surprised than her.
After the surprise, there was a surprise, and the matchmaker was excited.
She naturally knew her, after all, such a beautiful little girl was rare in the entire capital several times.
But it was this little girl who made her a big heel.
Not to mention that the savings and reputation of the first half of his life are gone, and even this life is almost lost because of her.
After being sentenced to exile, she almost died on the road, and in the end, Huo was born to get a little respite.
Originally, she thought that this life would be like this, but when the clinker official was about to go to Lingnan, she encountered mountain bandits who robbed her house, so she took the opportunity to escape.
It was also her fate that she met a team of people who sold maids and slaves. She can speak well, and gradually won the favor and trust of her family, so she joined in and became a part of it.
After another two months, she was able to take charge on her own, so she specially applied to come to the Beijing branch as an errand boy.
She had some thoughts, so she thought that she had to give the Xu family a gift no matter what.
Originally, she planned to buy off the subordinates of the Xu Mansion, steal the little lady of the Xu family, and sell it to a dirty place such as the Qinglou Chu Pavilion, so as to repay Xu Erlang's anger.
But the fence of the Xu family was tightly rooted, and she changed her appearance twice, and she didn't buy anyone. Even because of her suspicious appearance, she was almost caught and sent directly to the official. Fortunately, she ran fast and escaped again.
But at this point, the matchmaker really hated the Xu family thoroughly. She is really secretly determined to make the Xu family suffer a big loss, otherwise she will almost die for it several times, won't she suffer in vain?
There is no reason in the world to suffer a loss and not pay it back, after all, she is now dead, and she is not afraid of a good one. Even if she dies, she will also bring someone from the Xu family to accompany her, which is not a trip to the world.
She ran into a wall in the Xu family several times, and she hadn't come up with a way to hit the target, but this time even God helped her, and she didn't have to toss around, which didn't send ready-made people to her eyes.
The matchmaker recognized Pianpian at a glance, which made her ecstatic. She smiled like an old man. The bustard seemed to be good, and said to the partner next to him, "This is beautiful, right?" Ah, the old woman has lived for decades, and I have never seen a better character than this little girl. If this is sent to the Qinglou Chu Pavilion, the silver in hand ......"
The other person is a lean man, and he is not a good person when he looks like a thief. But he is also shrewd between his eyebrows and eyes, and he is not a foolish character.
As soon as he looked at Pian's clothes and jewelry, he frowned and said, "I'm afraid it's an official lady." ”
The matchmaker sighed in her heart, worried that this person would let Pian Pian go again, and hurriedly persuaded, "What's wrong with Miss Guan?" In our hands, she used to be a golden phoenix, didn't she have to be reduced to a grass chicken? There are a lot of official ladies in our hands, such a girl is arrogant in her bones, and she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and those old men like it the most. ”
"Besides, the official family pays the most attention to face, that is, the girl in the family is lost, and there are few fanfares who come out to find it, otherwise the face of the house will be lost. For us, it's good that she is an official lady, at least we don't have to worry about chasing soldiers behind us. You say, don't you? ”
The thief-eyed man was very moved when he heard this.
In fact, even if there was no persuasion from the matchmaker, he would not put Pian Pian back, and if he didn't eat the meat in his mouth, he would be thundered by the sky. However, this little girl is really good-looking, even if she is not sent to the Qinglou Chu Pavilion at that time, and sent to the official to make a small one, can she still lose their benefits?
Thinking so, the man beckoned behind him, and two stiff-looking women, with big shoulders and round waists, came out, and without saying a word, took the reins and walked towards Pianpian, as if to tie her up.
It has only been a moment since Pian Pian recognized the matchmaker, and Pian Pian was thinking about things just now, and she took out to listen to the conversation between the two to explore their details. Now that she knows that they are human traffickers, and even the matchmaker wants to sell her to the Qinglou, can she rely on this? Can she sit still?
Pian Pian ran away, and when he opened his mouth, he shouted sharply, "Help!" Help me! There are traffickers! Woohoo......"
Unfortunately, before she could shout a few times, the two women behind her quickly chased after her and held her firmly. Pian Pian also saw someone at the mouth of the alley looking inside, and when she saw that she was being choked, the person retreated.
Needless to say, this must be the one who whistles at the mouth of the alley.
There are tigers and wolves in front and pursuers in the back, are they destined to not be able to escape today?
The thought of never seeing her family again and being sold to that kind of place made her heart feel like ashes.
She is a high-spirited person, and she would rather die like this than be abused.
Guan Matchmaker has a deep hatred with her family, if she falls into her hands, how good will the end be? Rather than let this person threaten her brother with her, or humiliate the lintel of the Xu family, she would rather wipe her neck and kill herself now.
Thinking so, Pian Pian struggled with all her strength and pulled out the golden hairpin on her head......
