Although he noticed Qiao Ying's strange behavior, Qiao You didn't take it too seriously, he just thought that the little girl's family had grown up and began to have the sentimentality of a girl, so he didn't take it to heart.

The father and daughter chatted in the yard for a while, Qiao Youfu asked Qiao You to relax his snacks, and persuaded Hu Keer that Hu Ke'er had no children and didn't have much to do with her, if she didn't take the initiative to find fault that day, there would be no such thing at all.

In the final analysis, it is still a cycle of cause and effect, and with Hu Keer to find the cause of the matter, there is that effect.

Qiao You secretly thought that this consequence was a bit too heavy for Hu Keer.

However, after Qiao Youfu's explanation, Qiao You's heart was also a little relaxed, thinking that he would stay after returning from the Pei family, and he would also lock himself in the house for too long, thinking that it was time to go and see the store.

When Qiao Youfu said that he was tired and was about to go back to the room for a nap, Qiao You went back to the room and found a small box from under the bed, took a few silver tickets and broken silver in his arms, and was about to go out.

It's just that she didn't expect that when she opened the boudoir door, she saw Qiao Ying standing timidly outside her room, looking like she wanted to knock on the door, but she opened the door first.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with me? Qiao You asked with concern.

Qiao Ying pursed her lips, looking like she wanted to say something.

Now this sister is very different from Qiao You's first crossing, although her body bones still look slender, but she has begun to look like a girl, her skin is white and tender, and her cherry mouth is even more bright red, and she looks tight.

"Sister, I'...... I...... Can you lend me some silver? Qiao Ying asked a little nervously.

She knows that the family's food expenses, including the rent of this yard and her school fees, all depend on her sister, who used to be a cook in Qionghua Pavilion, and she can earn a salary of hundreds of taels of silver a month.

But now, my sister has quit that job, and she really has no face......

Qiao You smiled easily when she heard this, she thought it was something terrible, and hurriedly took out a few pieces of broken silver from her arms and stuffed them into Qiao Ying's hands.

"Ying'er, it's my sister's negligence, you're also a big girl, but you need some pocket money, use it to buy some gadgets you like." Qiao You said that he was about to go out.

Qiao Ying glanced down at the broken silver in her hand, frowned slightly, and hurriedly trotted to follow, "Sister, can you ...... Can you give me a hundred taels ......?"

Qiao You's steps paused, and his eyes wondered if there was something wrong with his ears.

One hundred taels of silver, what did she do with so much silver for an eleven-year-old girl, and she immediately became wary.

"What do you want so much silver for?" She asked, wondering if something had happened to this girl, blackmail? Or blackmail? Either way, it must be nipped in the bud.

Seeing her sister's serious face, Qiao Ying was scared immediately, and quickly lowered her head, her hands stirring up uneasily.

"I ...... I...... I want to buy clothes, and the classmates in the school asked me to go to enjoy the lotus flowers at the end of the month, and said that I would buy the same dress......" Qiao Ying whispered, and in the end, she was almost unable to hear her voice.

But Qiao You listened to it sincerely, but he was not annoyed, and even felt that this was a good thing, at least his sister learned to make friends and began to have her own communication.

"Okay, take it and buy two more good-looking ones, these are a little small, and buy some food pastries for the rest, and bring them to invite friends to eat on the day of the flowers."

Qiao Ying is now the time for growth and development, plus she has enough nutrition during this time, whether it is height or weight, she has come out a lot, and the two ready-to-wear clothes she bought last time are no longer enough.

When Qiao Ying heard this, she hurriedly put away the silver ticket carefully, and after writing about her sister, she excused herself and left with homework to do, Qiao You shook her head helplessly, this adolescent girl is really rebellious!

Returned to the room again, took a silver ticket, Qiao You left the courtyard and went straight to the East Street of Liuhe Town, although it is not as beautiful as the mountains and rivers on the side of the canal, nor as prosperous as there, but fortunately, there are a lot of people here, and it is a good place to open a restaurant.

Thinking like this, Qiao You wandered around the street unhurriedly, on the one hand, he wanted to see if there were any shops in the neighborhood for rent and resale, and on the other hand, he wanted to see what kind of restaurant was suitable for opening in this place.

Walking and walking, Qiao You was attracted by a girl's cry, and her heart was confused, so she looked for the sound, and saw that it was a tooth woman selling slaves, so she looked at it out of curiosity.

I saw that among the group of slaves who were about to be sold, there was a youngest girl with a filthy face, although this still could not hide her excellent face and kind eyes.

If Pei Heng's eyes are like a simple child who has not been deeply involved in the world, then the eyes of the girl in front of her are like a puppy panicked, fear and fear are all over her eyes, and she looks very pitiful.

"Miss, don't look at it, it's the dirty thing of buying and selling slaves, you can't stain your eyes, if you go back and be known by the master, you will definitely be beaten by slaves and maids." Beside him, there was a girl's crisp voice begging for mercy.

Qiao You inadvertently looked back at Yi Fan, he really didn't expect to meet an acquaintance.

And the other party also seemed to feel the gaze from this side, and at the same time looked towards Qiao You's side.

"Qiao Yo!? It's you? How did you end up here? Xia Ziyan said, and hurriedly squeezed it over, and finally took Qiao You's hand and jumped happily.

Since the last time she went back, the two have not seen each other, although she has asked the maid to send some small gifts and food from time to time, but they are all blocked by Qiao and not aggravated.

At first, Xia Ziyan didn't believe it, thinking that Qiao You was deliberately avoiding herself, but later came to the door and waited for a day, only to find that Qiao You had been quite busy recently, and she didn't return all day.

"Well, come to the street and see if there are any suitable shops, how about you? Why did you run out again? Qiao You said, the vigilant woman looked around, and found that Xia Ziyan came out without a bodyguard, but only a maid.

When Xia Ziyan heard this, she was happy, "That's it, just leave it to me, what kind of shop does my Xia family have in Liuhe Town, why fly around to find it." ”

When Qiao You heard this, she shook her head with a smile, she really didn't dare to ask for the shop of the Xia family, so what is the difference between asking Yuan Ziyi for the shop?

Seeing that the other party didn't want it, Xia Ziyan was not too strong, and pulled Qiao Youyou and said that she wanted to go shopping, "I ate and lived for nothing in your house last time, and today I have to treat you to a good meal." ”

Since the last time she was 'heroically saved by Qiao You', Xia Ziyan has completely changed her opinion of her, and even secretly likes this independent girl who looks cold on the outside but is hot on the inside.

And she still wants to learn from her as a teacher, and learn to make those strange and delicious foods.

Qiao You didn't think so, and let her little hand be pulled by others and left, but before leaving, she inexplicably glanced back at the girl, only to see the wrist-thick whip fall on the girl's body with a snap, and the bare skin in the air suddenly exploded a blood mark.

Qiao You didn't leave, took Xia Ziyan's hand and stood in place, the latter looked back at her with a puzzled expression, "What to do?" Or do you want to go shopping first? ”

"You see that girl is very cute, why don't you buy it and make a maid!" Qiao You said and pouted in the direction of the beaten girl.

Xia Ziyan followed her eyes and saw that inside the cage, a person with three straws on his head was also looking at Qiao You, with a look of distress in his eyes.

It's just that Xia Ziyan looks at it horizontally or vertically, where does the other party look like a girl?

"Do you like it? If you like it, I'll give it to you! Xia Ziyan said with a nonchalant face, an effort is just a few taels of silver, and she can still afford it.

After Qiao You heard this, she couldn't help but pout, she wanted to buy a maid to serve, but with his current situation, where could he afford to raise a little maid.

"Forget it, I can't use a maid because of my rough skin and thick flesh, but it's you, and I don't see a few clever people around, I think this girl is pretty good."

Xia Ziyan blinked, her eyes wondering if there was something wrong with Qiao You's eyes, even if her Xia family didn't have a maid, it would be absolutely impossible......

Just as he wanted to refuse, a girl's immature voice suddenly came from the crowd, "I'm coming down from this slave, I'll give three taels of silver!" ”

When Xia Ziyan and Qiao You heard this voice, they were shocked, this voice was too familiar, and they knew in their hearts that the owner of this voice was still an acquaintance.

"Xia Zishu, what do you mean, are you going to rob me if you buy a slave now? You must know that I am the concubine of the main house, you are just a lady who can't get on the stage, and you can't divide your dignity at every turn! Xia Ziyan was angry and scolded in front of so many people.

Since the last incident, she and Xia Zishu have formed a bond, or strictly speaking, she has finally cleared her mind, knowing that the good sister she has been thinking about for so many years is actually a femme fatale.

On Xia Zishu's side, she didn't look at her sister at all, and her eyes fell on Qiao You's body fixedly.

She knew about Qiao You's departure from Qionghua Pavilion, but officially because of this, she found that Yuan Ziyi had always become depressed from that day.

Although she doesn't usually like to laugh, she is as sensitive as her, even the slightest abnormality of a man will not escape her eyes, and she has seen it several times, that Yuan Ziyi took the recipe left by Qiao You, and sat in a daze for an afternoon......
