052: Where to go
"Miss Xin'er, it's safe here."
Xiao Jiu and Ning Yu took Mu Xin'er elsewhere, and after making sure that there were no more ruffians and hooligans around, they relieved Mu Xin'er to let go.
Mu Xin'er had never seen Xiao Jiu Ningyu, and thought it was a good person to help, but she heard Xiao Jiu call out her name, which made her murmur: "The girl knows me?" ”
Xiao Jiu glanced at Ning Yu, scratched his head, and replied to Mu Xin'er: "Uh, hehe... Maybe you haven't noticed... I often work in the Luo Shen Medical Shop, and I remember it when the girl often goes there in those days. ”
There are some things that Ning Yu doesn't know yet, and Xiao Jiu doesn't plan to talk to Ning Yu yet.
Ning Yu knew that Xiao Jiu often ran to Luo Tassel, so he didn't pay much attention to it, but his face subconsciously showed boredom with the word "Luo Tassel".
Mu Xin'er suddenly realized, and immediately knelt down to apologize, "Thank you for your help!" Great kindness, the heart is toothless and unforgettable! ”
Xiao Jiu was startled, and hurriedly helped Mu Xin'er up: "What a big deal!" Hurry up, hurry up! ”
"It's not that Master Ben said you, you said that you are a little girl, running around the street with such a big jewelry box, who else can those bad people beat if they don't beat you for their bad ideas?" Ning Yu on the side frowned, and couldn't help but instigate.
"Eh, little boy, don't be like this..."Xiao Jiu looked at Mu Xin'er with a pitiful look, he was really afraid that Ning Yu would be too fierce and scare people to cry.
But fortunately, Mu Xin'er was not afraid, and explained in a very good whisper, "The little boy misunderstood... The little woman wasn't willing to take such a risk, but... I'm just going to take it to the pawnshop..."
Hearing this, Xiao Jiu glanced at the jewelry box, and then stared at Mu Xin'er.
I thought: No, how can this Mu Xin'er have so many jewelry?
Ning Yuxu saw Xiao Jiu's suspicions, and asked again unabashedly: "You little girl, you look ordinary, I didn't expect there to be so much jewelry?" ”
No, in the next second, Mu Xin'er hurriedly denied the explanation.
Of course, she could hear the doubts in Ning Yu's words.
Glancing at the sky, he suddenly remembered his purpose, and hurriedly said goodbye, "Girl, childe, I'm really sorry, the little girl must rush to the pawnshop now, otherwise it will close if it's late." ”
"Let's go!" Xiao Jiu understood and waved his hand.
Then, Mu Xin'er left quickly.
After leaving, Ning Yu turned his head, looked at Xiao Jiu's eyes, and asked, "Who is she?" ”
It mainly involves Luo tassels, and Ning Yu just wants to know.
But Xiao Jiu knows bits and pieces about this matter, and it is someone else's private matter, so how can she tell Ning Yu...
"Forget it, you don't tell the master to pull down! Let's go back! Xiao Jiuyi didn't answer for a while, so Ning Yu didn't force him to ask.
Feeling that the man in front of him was unhappy, Xiao Jiu blinked, "Oops... Don't be upset......"
"No, go home."
"Okay, okay, go back!"

Pawnshop.
"Little brother, little brother! Wait a minute! Don't close the door yet! ”
Mu Xin'er just bumped into the pawnshop when it was about to close, but fortunately caught up.
Entering the pawnshop, Mu Xin'er carefully opened the jewelry box, only to see all kinds of jewelry and jade ornaments lying inside.
"The boss... This... With all of this in mind, how much can you get in exchange? ”
With such a large box of precious and good-looking jewelry, Mu Xin'er only picked three or four pieces that were easy to bring during the performance, and the others were reluctant to bring over.
Bringing such a large box at one time, the boss asked the apprentice to bring the utensils to witness the authenticity and quality.
After half a pillar of incense, the boss offered a price of one or two gold.
One tael of gold is equivalent to an ordinary person's annual income.
There are indeed a lot, but Mu Xin'er is still a little lost.
Because she is a woman, she knows how valuable the jewelry in this jewelry box is, and if she is not mistaken, several jade beads inside are rare jewelry.
However, only one or two gold.
One or two gold, at most, is only enough to buy half of the medicinal materials in the prescription...
Half left, what should she do ...
.......
With a tael of gold in her arms, Mu Xin'er went to the pharmacy.
"Boss, can you do it well, first dispense the medicine for me, and I will raise the rest of the money for you as soon as possible!" Mu Xin'er didn't want her condition to drag on, so she prayed.
In fact, in her heart, she longs to go home more than anyone else, but now that she looks like this, going home will only increase the burden on her relatives.
The owner of the pharmacy has been open for more than ten years, and he has seen many patients like Mu Xin'er who are poor and not have enough money to buy medicine, but he is a businessman, not a good person, and he also needs to make money.
Therefore, the owner of the pharmacy could only refuse Mu Xin'er ruthlessly: "Girl, most of the medicines in this prescription are really precious, and I also need money to purchase them!" If you don't pay it all, where will I get the money? Otherwise, you'll come back to me when you're ready!" Don't worry, I'll help you keep an eye out for those precious herbs! ”
Fruitless again, Mu Xin'er was haggard.
"Got it, trouble boss."
Heartbroken, she left the pharmacy and looked up at the sky.
God, why are you so unfair to me?

The next day, Mu Xin'er came to Tianxiang Pavilion to perform as usual.
After the performance, Song's mother suddenly found her.
"Xin'er, Xin'er, come on, come on!"
"Mom, what's the matter with Xin'er?" Mu Xin'er's face was full of suspicion, this was the first time that Mother Song took the initiative to talk to Mu Xin'er.
Mother Song shook the beauty fan, looked at Mu Xin'er carefully, and her tone was treacherous, "I've been in Tianxiang Pavilion for so long, I don't know if you're still used to it?" ”
"Being cared for by my mother, everything is fine in my heart." Mu Xin'er replied nervously.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, mom just greets, after all, you are also a girl from our Tianxiang Pavilion." Mother Song touched Mu Xin'er's shoulder and continued: "Playing the piano on stage in obscurity all the time, will you feel bored?" Ever thought about doing anything else? ”
"Mom... Thank you mom for your concern... Xin'er can only play the hand zither, and other arts can't... So, don't dare to ask for extravagance. Mu Xin'er lowered her head, having a bad premonition.
"Who said that we only need girls who know how to perform in Tianxiang Pavilion? Even if you can't, you can still stay in our Tianxiang Pavilion! Word by word, revealing a strong hint.
Tianxiang Pavilion, in addition to art. Prostitute, then... Only real. Female.
Mother Song's face was full of intentions, how could Mu Xin'er, who understood the sophistication of human feelings, not see it.
It was because I understood Mother Song's intentions that I was even more afraid.
Could it be that Mother Song is like asking her to go......
"Mom, I don't dare to ask for more, so I'm already very satisfied!" Mu Xin'er's voice trembled a little.
Mother Song was not stupid when she saw Mu Xin'er, she should have understood what she meant, so it can be seen that she didn't have that kind of idea, so Mother Song pulled her to a corner where no one was.
"Xin'er, don't be so reluctant, this woman, if there is no man, she can't live!" Mother Song began to brainwash Mu Xin'er, "And this man is an animal with a tendon, as long as the woman's mouth is sweeter and obedient, this man can still be fascinated, and at that time, the woman will give whatever the man wants~"
Mu Xin'er listened to the words and had no idea at all.
Mother Song frowned, obviously feeling a little impatient with Mu Xin'er's stubbornness, coughed her throat, and continued: "Xin'er, you listen to your mother, this is in Tianxiang Pavilion, if you don't get close to a man, you will never be able to raise your head!" When you performed this afternoon, a Mr. Qiu noticed you and told me, Mom thinks that Mr. Qiu really likes you as a girl! ”
Mu Xin'er didn't dare to respond.
"Heart! Be obedient! Master Qiu said, as long as Xin'er accompanies him for a day, one day will do~" As she spoke, Mother Song suddenly took out an ingot of gold from her arms.
Slowly stuffed into Mu Xin'er's hand, and raised his eyebrows: "Master Qiu said, this is his meeting gift to Xin'er~ I hope Xin'er can understand his sincerity~"
Mu Xin'er looked at the more gold in her hand than she had given as jewelry that day, and for a moment, she was really a little moved.
Because in this way, she has collected the money for the medicine!
Mother Song saw Mu Xin'er's short-term heartbeat at a glance, and took the opportunity to say a few more words: "Master Qiu is a good person, and he won't force you to do anything you don't want to do~ As long as you play with him for a day tomorrow, when the time comes, he will give you as much money as you want~"
Mu Xin'er became more and more excited.
"If you haven't thought about it, don't be in a hurry for tomorrow, give you time to think about it one day, and the day after tomorrow~" Song's mother added another temptation, "You can collect this money, make yourself some beautiful clothes, and buy some jewelry~"
Mu Xin'er was silent for a while.
"Hmm."

"Luo Tassel, I think about it, I want to help Zhao Wenyu and Mu Xin'er! I can't stand it anymore! ”
After saving Mu Xin'er, Xiao Jiu found that his soft-hearted problem was getting more and more serious, thinking that Zhao Wenyu didn't think about eating, didn't want to do homework, and wanted to recover Mu Xin'er, and Mu Xin'er hid from everyone and worked hard to make money to make money for medicine alone.
The misunderstanding between the two of them is getting deeper and deeper, and Xiao Jiu really can't turn a blind eye when he knows it.
She admits that she is nosy, and this kind of marriage with no money is also blindly involved, but after all, she can understand Mu Xin'er's feelings of fighting alone, and she feels very sorry for Mu Xin'er.
That day, she even had a hot head and calculated the remuneration she had said before, and she had the urge to help Mu Xin'er raise money to buy medicine.
"So kind, why don't I find you a few more?" Luo Tassel's mockery, it was obvious that he didn't agree with Xiao Jiu.
It's not that he's selfish, but he knows the problems of a bad person like Xiao Jiu, and hopes that she can change it, otherwise she will suffer a loss in the future.
Xiao Jiu didn't care, what he decided was to do it, slapped the table, and said firmly: "Don't persuade me!" I've already figured it out! If you don't help me, I'll do it myself! ”
"Then go yourself." Luo Tassel didn't think about it at all and replied bluntly.
Xiao Jiu bit his lip: "If you don't help, you won't help!" I have the ability, not rare you! ”
Hua Luo, stubbornly out of the medical shop.
Luo Tassel looked down, shook his head and sighed.
