Fang Tian followed his gaze, and near his gaze was a candy stall, and what attracted Lin Xiao's gaze was the tempting sugar gourd on the candy stall.

Sure enough, he was still a child, Fang Tian couldn't help but smile, pulled Lin Xiao to the candy stall, bought two sugar gourds from the boss, and handed one to Lin Xiao.

She blinked and smiled in Lin Xiao's surprised gaze, and said in a mysterious low voice: "I want to eat, this string is for your hush money, don't let my mother know, if she knows that I still eat sugar gourds at such an age, she will be ridiculed." ”

Lin Xiao was stunned and nodded heavily.

As soon as you open your mouth and bite it, the sweet feeling melts on the tip of your tongue and is sweet to your heart.

This is the sweetest thing he has ever eaten in his life, he squinted his eyes, looked up at the autumn day, and could still feel the warmth, so he felt that the world was far from being as bad as he imagined.

Fang Tian took Lin Xiao to the flower and bird market, she came just in time, when she arrived, she happened to see a tall and dark peasant man passing by Wang Yingrou's orchid stall, he originally wanted to go to the stall next door to sell flowers, but I don't know what's going on, I accidentally touched a pot of orchids from Wang Yingrou's house.

The pot of orchids was not stable in the first place, and when it was slightly potted, it fell to the ground, and with a bang, the pot shattered into shams, and the soil inside turned out, and the flowers fell off the ground.

Wang Yingrou brought two or three house slaves, and when she saw this, she ordered them to hold the man down, and insisted that he pay for it.

The man knew that he was at a loss, but he didn't bother with him much, but he just sighed incessantly, saying that he didn't look at the yellow calendar when he went out today, and he was unlucky, and he originally wanted to go next door to buy two pots of orchids and pretend to be home, like a scholar's little white face to cultivate his sentiments, and make the girls happy, but suddenly there was such a disaster.

He knew that he was going to lose money, so he kept muttering angrily: "I'm taking the big road, why are other people's orchids put steadily, just your orchids, as soon as someone walks by, they will fall to the ground, don't deliberately lay out to slander people, right?" ”

He was unconvinced and muttered twice, but these two angered Wang Yingrou, Wang Yingrou relied on the power of the family to be used to it, and the house slaves raised under him were used to it at this time, and when he gave an order, he pressed the man to the ground and beat him severely.

"What is the layout of the wrong people, you look at the material of the clothes on my body, where is the appearance of a wicked person who is short of money?"

The man looked strong, but the result was so unbeaten, it may be that the house slaves of the Wang family have been angry and unbearable in the past two days, so they beat people and beat them ruthlessly, so that the man couldn't stop shouting, and most of the people in the flower and bird market were attracted to him.

Wang Yingrou was a little flustered, after all, no matter how arrogant and domineering she was, she was just a daughter's family, and she was surrounded by people who looked at her like this, so she hurriedly asked her subordinates to stop, thinking that he could lose money, and the matter was over.

"I lose money, I lose money, let me go!" The man couldn't stand steadily, holding his stomach and barely getting up, he also knew each other, saw Wang Yingrou's dress, and knew that it was definitely not a character he could afford to provoke, so he thought about a pot of orchids, and he would lose money if he broke it.

He couldn't stop sighing, saying that he was really unlucky to come across such a thing when he went out.

Wang Yingrou nodded and quoted him a price.

Suddenly, the wind seemed to stand still, the breathing stopped, and the chatter of the people watching the excitement disappeared in an instant.

The man was not convinced, and said angrily: "You are a slander! ”

The amount reported by Wang Yingrou is not something that he, an ordinary farmer, can afford, this money is enough for their family's expenses for half a year, so he scolded angrily: "No one buys your orchids, it turns out that they are doing this kind of money-grabbing business in broad daylight, I just passed by your stall, how can the orchid pots still fall down for no reason?" It must be your family who did it! ”

Seeing that Wang Yingrou's face was getting paler and paler, the more he felt that what he said was right, so he scolded even louder, as if he was afraid that the people in the flower and bird market would not hear it.

Wang Yingrou felt ashamed and wanted the house slave to seal his mouth, when he suddenly heard an angry shout: "Bold! ”

Everyone present turned their heads to look at the voice, only to see a white-haired and rickety old man, walking slowly on crutches.

When Fang Tian saw him, he raised his eyebrows lightly and chuckled: "I didn't expect this shouting to really alarm a big man." ”

Some of the people present didn't recognize who this old man was, but some people gasped when they saw this old man.

Don't look at the old man is old, he has to walk on crutches, he is a real big man, a local, he used to be a big official in the capital, and then he was old, so he returned to the old family and moved back, the county lord saw him and had to kneel respectfully and shout Old Lady Zhang.

Those who don't know the inside story are lively, and those who know the inside story have become joking in their eyes, just to see how Wang Yingrou came back.

Wang Yingrou has never seen Mrs. Zhang, because Mrs. Zhang has always had the style of a literati in ancient times, and she doesn't like the smell of copper the most.

Although I can't recognize people, but seeing the old man's bearing and majesty, anyone with a little brain knows that he has an extraordinary background.

Wang Yingrou still has a brain, the original dark face has changed another look as if singing, smiling, comparing her smiling face with the burly and strong man in front of the stall, people who don't know the inside story can see it at first glance, I am afraid that the burly peasant man will be regarded as a bad person, and Wang Yingrou is a pure little white rabbit.

Old lady Zhang is different from others, people come from the capital, what kind of demons and monsters have not been seen, he glanced at Wang Yingrou, and his eyes fell on the man again, just now he heard the man's angry voice, so he asked him what was going on.

"Master, I'm wronged, I just wanted to buy two pots of orchids to plant at home today, and when I came, I saw no one in front of their stall, so I thought about going to the stall next door to pick up two pots of flowers and buy them back, but I don't know what's going on, when I passed by, I clearly hadn't touched their orchids, and the orchid pots fell!"

The more the man said, the more he felt wronged: "If I am unlucky, if I lose money, I will lose money, and I will spend money to eliminate the disaster, but this young lady indiscriminately let her slave beat me up, and let me lose money according to the sky-high price." ”

The man was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, and what he said was quite convincing, he told the old lady Zhang the price quoted by Wang Yingrou, and said with a sad face: "At this price, you can buy dozens of pots of orchids next door, I said that they made money in broad daylight, they were angry and wanted to beat me!" ”

Old lady Zhang narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling that the price quoted by Wang Yingrou was indeed unacceptable, his family was poor when he was a teenager, and he was an official and courtier, and he had never been extravagant and wasteful, as far as their family was concerned, the price of this compensation was enough for several days of the family.

Suddenly, he remembered something again, and his cloudy eyes suddenly lit up: "The flower, show it to me." ”

Wang Yingrou, who was depressed, seemed to see the dawn at first glance, thinking that the old man was a person who knew the goods, and handed over the flowers: "The orchids sold by our family are different from the orchids sold by others, and our orchids are bought from remote mountain villages, and the varieties are precious and worth a lot of silver!" ”

The people around her coaxed her to tell her about the value of her orchids, but she couldn't say why, her eyes stared at Mrs. Zhang, hoping that he could help her.

The man who knocked down the orchid on the side heard that this was a precious variety, and immediately broke into a cold sweat, he knew his ability to bear it, and he could afford to break dozens of pots of ordinary orchids, and he would definitely not be able to afford to pay for the precious flowers that the dignitaries liked.

He was so bad that he had this glimmer of hope, and asked Old Man Zhang in a trembling voice: "Do you think this orchid is a precious variety?" ”

The old lady's eyes were dim, and he shook his head: "This is just an ordinary Jianlan, it is not a valuable variety, it looks chic, but because its growth environment is not very good, it is different from other orchids." ”

The old lady himself was also very disappointed, he didn't like to go out, after all, the old man is old, and it is inconvenient to go out. But a few days ago, I heard that Mr. Weiyun accidentally got a Dharma orchid in this town, and he was itching in his heart, so he went out and went to the flower and bird market to shop.

As a result, he found nothing, and when he encountered such a bad thing, his face sank.

At the same time, the county magistrate heard the news that the old lady was going out, so he hurried over from the mansion: "Old lady, why don't you know that you will meet the younger generation when you go out, it happens to be the time when the chrysanthemums are in full bloom, wouldn't it be beautiful to go to enjoy the flowers together?" ”

Old lady Zhang shook his head and sighed: "Forget it, it's eventful, don't go shopping and don't appreciate it." ”

The old lady said, and slowly walked out with the help of his subordinates.

There are not many people who know the old lady, but there are many people who know the county officials, and as soon as he arrived in this place, a bunch of people knelt down. Wang Yingrou is also one of them, she is not stupid, when she heard the title of the county order, she guessed the identity of the old lady, at the moment, a little face was pale, and her body couldn't stop shaking.

Fortunately, the old lady did not embarrass her because of her rudeness.

Wang Yingrou thought about it, but she couldn't smile on her face. What kind of person is Mrs. Zhang, a big man who used to be an official in the capital, must be well-informed, he just said that the orchids on this stall are not precious varieties, but ordinary orchids that do not grow well, there must be a reason for him.

Wang Yingrou had a thought swirling in her heart, and that thought forced her to hurry home from the stall, which made her lose her soul, and she didn't even care about the compensation for the man who broke the orchid.

How beautiful and happy she was when she went out to sell flowers, and how sad she was when she went home, Wang Yingrou closed her door tightly as soon as she got home, as if she wanted to shut out the embarrassing eyes of her two days.

It didn't take long for Wang Yuanwai to hear the news, unlike his own daughter who gave up on herself because of a loss, he calmly ordered his subordinates to invite a flower farmer to come over, and then asked someone to invite Zhao Wenxuan over.

Zhao Wenxuan knew that the Wang family must have called him over in such a hurry, something must have happened, so he struggled all the way, just thinking about escaping reality. When he arrived, the flower farmer had carefully read all the orchids, he shook his head, and said to Wang Yuanwai: "These orchids are not precious varieties, just ordinary orchids, and you can buy dozens of pots in the flower and bird market for one or two silver." ”

When Wang Yuanwai saw Zhao Wenxuan, he asked the flower farmer to retreat first, he gestured sideways, Zhao Wenxuan followed his gaze, and saw Wang Yingrou sitting there, crying with pear blossoms and rain.

Zhao Wenxuan was a little distressed, so he stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her shoulders, and comforted her softly: "Sister Rou'er, don't cry, all the mistakes are my fault." ”
