Chapter 267: Return to the Palace
There is some truth in what you said, it is true that I haven't seen my mother for a long time, and I don't know how she and Uncle Yang are doing. ”
Ye Zhenzhen sighed, I can't tell if I feel lonely, so I can only think so for the time being.
"Miss can pick up Mrs. and them to live with them this year, and the family will be more lively."
Qingju gently placed her hand on Ye Zhenzhen's shoulder, and then proposed softly.
Ye Zhenzhen smiled and said nothing, this is the first time she has celebrated the New Year in Beijing, and she doesn't know what kind of scene it is.
Ye Zhenzhen checked the account books in the store, and personally purchased a batch of new raw materials, and then planned to go back to the house to recuperate.
Unexpectedly, among the scattered crowds on the street, there were bursts of wailing and scolding.
The woman shouted sadly and sadly, and the sobs were hurried.
"Qingju, come with me to have a look."
Ye Zhenzhen hurriedly got up from her seat, staring at the scene outside the store a little nervously, her eyes were white, and she really didn't know where the sound came from.
"Tell you to run, and if you run again, I'll break your legs."
"Hey, this little girl, she looks pretty neat, she's just a cheap embryo!"
Ye Zhenzhen rushed over to find a sound, only to see several stout men punching and kicking around one place, and saying dirty words from time to time.
"Stop fighting, I really don't have any money...... Don't send me to the Qinglou, I'll definitely give it back to you. ”
The woman pleaded with a weeping voice as she protected her head, her voice full of caution and fear.
"How much money can you have, it's better to marry us as a daughter-in-law, and you don't need to pay back the money."
One of them was so dazed that when he had finished fighting, he stretched out his swarthy hand and went up to tear the woman's garment.
The woman swore to die, tugging at her neckline, cries and begs for mercy mixed together, and the hearts of those who listened were broken.
I heard a thud, and the woman's clothes seemed to be torn apart.
"Stop!"
Ye Zhenzhen stepped forward in three or two steps and shouted to a few people.
Everyone stopped what they were doing, turned their heads and glared at Ye Zhenzhen.
One of the big men asked Ye Zhenzhen angrily: "Which green onion are you, you dare to take care of the master's affairs!" What kind of hero are you here, get out of the way, be careful and even you will clean up later. ”
"Presumptuous, this is the county lord of Ning'an personally appointed by the emperor, how many heads do you dare to yell at the court officials."
Today's Qingju seems to be a little different from the past, I saw her scolding a few fanatics sharply, her eyes were sharp and domineering, and her tone was full of inexhaustible majesty.
"Ning'an County Lord? It seems that there is such a person. ”
One of them thought for a moment before muttering.
"It's quite peugeot, I want to try the taste of this county lord and tie her up for me!"
Without waiting for the others to say anything, one of them stuck out his tongue and filled his lips obscenely, his eyes full of lust, as if overflowing like a flood.
Ye Zhenzhen felt a chill, her brows furrowed, the woman curled up in the corner clutched her chest tightly, a tear overflowed from the corner of her eye, across the dirty cheek, her eyes were full of look and longing.
"I see who dares! Gao Wei tied up this king and sent it to Jing Zhaoyin. ”
Just when Ye Zhenzhen thought that things were going to be in trouble, who knew that a rather majestic voice sounded behind her, familiar and full of magnetism.
Ye Zhenzhen was stunned for a while, only to see her hurriedly turn around, and saw Nangong Mu riding on a lion with black sideburns, and many people riding horses behind her, all wearing armor, tall and mighty.
"Lord Wang."
Ye Zhenzhen was excited for a while, her pupils couldn't help but dilate, and her tone was a little unconscious.
"This king wants to return to the palace to restore his life, Han Wei, escort the county lord and Qingju back to the house."
Nangong Mu had a hidden autumn wave in his eyes, Ye Zhenzhen saw a burst of comfort in his eyes, only to see him hold the reins, let the horse spin in place, and gave a hasty command, and then rode the horse away with a whip.
Leaving a team of soldiers, they tied up the prodigal sons of the disciples and sent them to Jing Zhaoyin, and Han Wei specially stayed by Ye Zhenzhen's side.
When the crowd dispersed, the woman was still curled up in the corner, her sleeves torn, her thin clothes clinging to her body, shivering in the snow, and her eyes timidly looking at everyone.
Ye Zhenzhen sighed slightly, and after giving the woman a goodbye look, she ordered: "Qingju, take her away too." ”
In the Ye Mansion, a few little girls supported the woman who was cowering and looking around, and then dragged her to the room, Qingju asked her to get her a clean dress, and took a bath before sending it to Ye Zhenzhen.
Ye Zhenzhen was holding a stove in her hand, her mood was indescribable at the moment, and she was a little excited, and when she saw the girl walking in timidly, she hurriedly threw a gentle look at her.
"Come on, don't be afraid, this is for you, it must be frozen."
Ye Zhenzhen looked at her rough hands, large and small broken wounds, chilblains everywhere, her face was also blue and red, and there were several wounds on her forehead that had not healed.
"Thank you, county lord."
The woman trembled and took the stove, met Ye Zhenzhen's gaze, and then lowered her head again, with tears in her eyes.
"Qingju, bring the ointment."
Ye Zhenzhen knew that she felt bitter in her heart, and she didn't know how to comfort her, so she had to gently take her hand, and when Qingju brought the ointment, she concentrated on giving her the medicine.
The woman was so strong that she quickly wiped away her tears, and then there was only a low sob.
"Don't cry, it will hurt your face in winter, wipe it, it will hurt a little, you bear with it."
Ye Zhenzhen handed over her handkerchief, comforted her softly, and then applied the ointment to her forehead carefully, only to see her grinning for a while, but she still couldn't hold back.
"Why did they do this to you?"
Ye Zhenzhen saw that she knew how to forbear, so she asked in a low voice, for fear of hurting her.
"My dad owes them money, and they were ...... a while ago I was killed by mistake, and they came to force me again...... I don't want to pay back, they want to ...... Selling me to the green building, I ran out, and they blocked me. ”
Speaking of this, the girl couldn't stop crying, sobbing, and stumbling to finish a sentence.
"If you don't cry, it'll be over, so do you still have family?"
Ye Zhenzhen felt distressed for a while, what was a little girl, she was bullied like this, so she comforted her again, and then carefully interrogated.
"No, my aunt was afraid that they would ask for money, so she kicked me out early."
The woman shook her head slightly, and replied with tears in her eyes.
"What's your name? But what are the plans? ”
Ye Zhenzhen gave her medicine, helped her to sit on the stool, and asked again.
"Zhilan, I don't have any plans, even if I go out, I will be blocked by them."
"Otherwise, you can live in my house, get paid every month, and don't have to go out to make a living, is that good?"
Ye Zhenzhen looked at her pitiful, and knew that she was cornered, so she opened her mouth to try to solicit.
"Thank you for the great kindness of the county lord, I can't repay it, the county lord is so kind, I ......"
Hearing this, Zhilan knelt directly on the ground, tears pouring down like a waterfall, and choked with excitement.
"You don't have to be like this, I also look at you pitifully, but you remember, although I took you in, but the word loyalty is the most important, if you are loyal, I will not treat you lightly, but if you have two hearts, ......"
"Slaves and maids will never dare to have two hearts, if there is this, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed."
Zhilan saw Ye Zhenzhen's worries, and hurriedly stretched out her finger and swore to the sky.
"That's good, you go down to rest first, and when the time comes, I'll ask the housekeeper to prepare the deed, and you will be my Ye Zhenzhen's person in the future."
Ye Zhenzhen saw that she was excited, and hurriedly pulled her up from the ground, wiped the tears on her cheeks with her hands, and soothed her softly for a while.
Qingju arranged a room for Zhilan, and from then on, Zhilan joined Ye Zhenzhen's men.
Nangong Mu was ordered to be an envoy in the palace, and then hurried to see her.
When I first met Nangong Mu, he still had a lot of stubble on his chin, and the whole person looked a little haggard and thin.
Ye Zhenzhen hurriedly stretched out her hand and touched his face, her heart was mixed, and she didn't know where to start.
"I haven't seen her for a few days, and the lady looks a lot thinner, but she has been bullied by others."
Nangong Mu was very domineering, pulled Ye Zhenzhen into her arms, hugged her tightly regardless of etiquette, her eyes looked back and forth on her face, and her tone was full of doting.
"No, it's just that the autumn appreciation ceremony accidentally fell into the water, and then it contracted the wind cold, and it's been much better this time."
Ye Zhenzhen shook her head slightly, and explained a little choked.
Although she doesn't like to cry, but now she doesn't know how, she has a lot of unspeakable feelings when she sees Nangong Mu.
"Shangguan Wenze didn't protect you wholeheartedly? How could it be overboard? ”
When Nangong Mu heard this, he immediately frowned, and asked with some distress.
Ye Zhenzhen shook her head again, stretched out her hand to stroke his frowning brows for him, and then opened her mouth to defend Shangguan Wenze: "Brother Yi treated me very well, I don't know who was plotting that day, or Brother Yi jumped down to save me from all his might, and he also sent someone to follow him privately on weekdays, which can be described as doing his best." ”
"That's fine, now that I'm back, it won't happen again."
Nangong Mu smiled slightly, the hand holding Ye Zhenzhen's waist tightened slightly, and he encircled her in his arms and was reluctant to let go, and his face was a little reluctant, like a child holding a toy and not letting go.
"Alright, you've just come back, let's go shower and change clothes."
Ye Zhenzhen touched his chin full of stubble, and sneered weakly, only then did she push Nangong Mu, her tone full of helplessness.
Finally sent Nangong Mu to the bedroom next to him to bathe, Ye Zhenzhen hurriedly prepared a clean dress for him, and let the green orange mix it with rose water, waiting to tie his hair, and there was a pure jade hair crown and a white jade hairpin on the table quietly.
Ye Zhenzhen was overjoyed, her smile was more than before, Qingju was always smiling on the side, but Ye Zhenzhen didn't know it.
