Chapter 233: Shashui Lake Water Condensation Town
The fastest update of the latest chapter of Beauty Butterfly!
The cold night is frozen, the north wind is howling, and the city is in a state of tranquility, and every household with good conditions has a stove, a dragon, and a warm kang, but the miserable civilians in the suburbs may just be covered with a thin quilt in the freezing night, and they will be cold all night.
The snow was thick, the ice was thick, and the beggars hiding in the ruined temple were frozen by the wind all night, and all that remained was cold and hard corpses.
The cold struck, and suddenly many people were killed and injured in the towns and villages near the capital. Some villagers gathered all the beggars who had frozen to death and didn't know where they came from, dug a big pit, and buried them.
Poor villagers who froze to death also helped to bury them together, just one more wooden tablet.
Xiangfu, Qinghui Garden.
Under the corridor, Hua Yu was on the edge of the railing, seemingly in a bad mood, and wiped her tears silently.
By the window, Liu Piaoji looked through the window, puzzled, "What's the matter?" Liu Piao's cold eyes slid over Chunlin's face.
Chunlin's eyes flashed, and she didn't hide it from her, "Hua Ying's family has frozen to death due to the weather in the past few days, and she is in a bad mood. ”
Hearing this, Liu Piao's eyes instantly darkened.
She knew that the climate in the north was different from that in the south, she lived in the south, and she had never had such a severe cold, and it was indeed difficult to adapt to such temperatures.
However, as the fourth young grandmother in the Prime Minister's Mansion and Jian Xiu's wife, of course, her warm clothes are excellent, so she has never felt cold. However, the people are different, especially the people who are not in good condition.
Liu Piao's gloomy eyes sneered, as if he had forgotten the meaning of coming back to life.
Hua Ying let Chunlin into the house, and Liu Piaoyi sat on the chair and looked at her.
"Where is your home?" Liu Piaoyi asked, it is true that she has never asked the people around her who serve her, and she has never paid much attention to them.
"The slave's home is in Shuining Town, on the shore of Shashui Lake." Hua Ying replied softly, and tears fell from her red and swollen eyes again.
"Come here." Liu Piaoyi beckoned to her.
Hua Ying obediently lowered her head and walked in front of her, but she didn't dare to get too close to her.
"Who else is in the house?" Liu Piaoyi asked softly, and her voice was unprecedentedly gentle.
"And the slave's father, and a deaf and dumb brother." Hua Ying replied honestly.
That soft and kind heart suddenly tightened, and Liu Piao's lips pursed indescribably.
A carriage went out of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The driver was Wensi. The carriage went directly towards the city gate, in the direction of Shashui Lake.
In Shuining Town, Hua Ying got out of the car, pointed out the route to Wen Si, and the carriage went directly to her door.
"It's here, Fourth Young Grandma." Wen Si parked the carriage and got out of the carriage first, and then waited in the carriage.
Dressed in a fox fur and holding a hand stove, Liu Piaoyu got off the carriage.
Wen Si looked up at her, a pair of eyes exposed outside the veil, very beautiful, but a little imperceptible cold.
Wen Si didn't dare to look more, and raised his hand to point to Hua Ying's home.
It is a simple wooden house, with a thatched roof and a large tree in front of the house that has fallen off its leaves.
Liu Piao's eyes fell on the man who was buried in chopping wood under the big tree, wearing a thin coarse cloth coat and mending trousers.
Hua Ying was already excited, and called out to the man, "Dad." ”
Liu Piaomei saw the wrinkled old man turn his head to see Hua Ying

At that moment, tears welled up in my eyes.
"This is the fourth young grandmother, the master of the daughter." Hua Ying introduced Liu Piaoyi to the old man.
The old man immediately bowed and saluted, and the gesture of the salute was deeper, although a little clumsy, but it could be seen that it was completely sincere.
Liu Piaoyi immediately took a step forward and hurriedly helped the old man up.
Walking into the house, there were two simple rooms, a main hall, and nothing but a table. Liu Piao's sensitive heart tightened, she was so poor, but Hua Ying never mentioned it in front of her.
It's just a bowl of hot water, but Liu Piaoyi feels the old man's sincere and kind greeting.
Zeng, her family in Yao Village was also poor, but she was not so poor to this extent. Maybe Hua Ying's father has a problem with food and clothing every year.
Yes, from Hua Ying helping the old man to bring a plate of boiled sweet potatoes, Liu Piaoyi knew it.
The deaf and dumb brother turned out to be very polite and couldn't speak, but he still understood the rules and etiquette. Maybe it was for Hua Ying to be kind to the Lord, but this brother couldn't say anything, but he knelt down in front of Liu Piaoyi with a plop and bowed and bowed.
Liu Piaoyi only felt a pain in his heart, why didn't the imperial court pay attention to the people, and didn't supply food and clothes to these poor families.
sneered, she had already understood it clearly. Many years ago, why her Yao Village was exterminated by the imperial army was not because the people fought against the imperial court.
Liu Piaoyi asked Wen Si to leave a bag of silver for Hua Ying's father, and did her best.
It was only then that she realized the importance of silver. I have food and clothing in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I never wanted to keep more money around me.
In the future, she should pay more attention to money.
Wen Si accompanied Liu Piaoyi to walk around in this condensing town. She didn't do anything else, she just wanted to see what this water condensation town was like.
There is only one main street, and on both sides of the main street are some of the most spacious and high-rise houses in Kyoto City, but just some small residences that resemble the topography of Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River.
A river is on the edge of the town, and the river is very close to the Shashui Lake.
Liu Piaoyu gazed at it, and he could see the surface of the sand lake covered in ice and snow.
On both sides of the alley, there are also a few shops with their doors open, and wine flags hanging outside are displayed in the wind.
Liu Piaoyi looked at the big word "Pan" written on one of the wine flags, and paused for a moment.
Wen Si looked at Liu Piaoyi and asked, "Do you want the fourth young grandmother to go in and sit?" He thought that the fourth young grandmother wanted to go in and sit down and eat something, after all, she was at Hua Ying's house just now, but there were only some sweet potatoes.
Liu Piaoyi left directly without moving, and did not go in. She's not here to visit the restaurant.
The streets and alleys are not lively, only a few pedestrians. But what happened suddenly caused a lot of excitement.
A middle-aged man ran in front of Liu Piaoyi, but before he could get in front of her, he let the three big men who were chasing him behind him fall to the ground, and punched and kicked him.
Liu Piaomei only heard the screams and pleading of the beaten man. Looking at such a scene, a cold light flashed in her eyes.
Wen Si tightly guarded Liu Piaoyi, for fear that those people would accidentally bump into the fourth young grandmother.
"Stop fighting, I'll give you the money back......"
"If you win, you don't play, you want to run, how can it be so easy to ......"
From the conversation between the thugs and the man who was beaten, Liu Piaoyi understood a little bit, it seemed that it was because of a gambling dispute. But people don't play anymore, so why force it
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
!
The middle-aged man vomited blood from his mouth when he was beaten, but those people still didn't let go, and they still didn't stop.
The fist in his sleeve suddenly clenched, and Liu Piaoyi shouted coldly, "Stop!" ”
At this time, the three people stopped, and one of them looked at Liu Piaoyi fixedly, and there was a little inexplicable complexity mixed with disbelief.
In the face of these people, Liu Piaoyi's eyes were not even a little timid.
"Oops." The man who looked at Liu Piaoyi chuckled, maybe he didn't expect a woman to be able to take care of their affairs.
At this moment, from the other side of the street, a group of people came in front of Liu Piaoyi. The three thugs bowed their heads when they saw the man, and it seemed that they were in a group.
The person in the lead was wearing a dark blue robe embroidered with beautiful patterns, which made the whole person look quite extravagant. However, the eyebrows and eyes are arrogant and gloomy, which makes people unable to raise a trace of goodwill.
But when he saw Liu Piaoyi, his expression was stunned, with a bit of amazement.
I didn't expect to see such a beautiful woman, especially the woman's crystal phoenix eyes looking at him with a bit of sharpness and scrutiny, which made him feel his heart beat faster!
The man in the dark blue robe looked at Liu Piaoyi, and said very frivolously, "Where did the little lady come from, so delicate, why don't you follow me, I will love you like a treasure." ”
Liu Piao's little face was very cold, and the killing intent overflowing from his body was difficult to ignore.
Although the man in the dark blue robe was slightly stunned by her look, in the face of a beautiful girl, the man was not afraid of anything at all.
Liu Piaoyi's face tightened and turned cold again, the hand in his sleeve was tightened, and he was angry in his heart, and he really wanted to slap that person to death with one palm.
The thug who said "oops" to Liu Piaoyi just now immediately said to the man in the dark blue robe, "Childe, beauty, my subordinates have never seen such a beautiful woman, but she actually took care of our affairs. ”
The man in the dark blue robe cautiously glanced at Liu Piao, who looked cold and terrifying, knowing that such a beauty, I was afraid that it would not be light, but seeing the beauty, the man still moved his mind.
Just when the man took a few steps towards Liu Piaoyi, Wen Si was heartbroken, and immediately shouted angrily, "The fourth young grandmother of the Prime Minister's Mansion, which of you dares to move!" ”
The corners of the man's mouth twitched, and there was a moment of stiffness in his expression, but then he only smiled faintly, "Zhang Jianxiu's wife......" The man paused for a moment and sneered again, "You said yes." ”
Wen Si's face changed, and he didn't want this person to hear that the Prime Minister still had bear bile.
Liu Piaoyi still had indifferent eyes, as if she was teasing the person in front of her, and she didn't have a trace of timidity.
"What's the matter, how about letting my son take the girl to fill the house?"
The man in the dark blue robe had not yet finished speaking, and a strong wind blew.
"Who?"
The man's expression froze, and he quickly glanced around.
Just when Liu Piaoyi and everyone on the scene were a little surprised, I saw that the body of the man in the dark blue robe was suddenly pulled up by a figure that flashed over, and he fell to the ground heavily, and in the blink of an eye, the man was thrown on a stall selling small puppets on the side of the alleyway, making a loud noise.
This sudden situation, not to mention that Liu Piaoyi didn't react, even the subordinates of the person who was about to help on the side were stunned!
The frightened and stupid were all pestled in place.
Liu Piaoyi looked over, only to see that the person who suddenly flashed out turned out to be Jian Xiu, the corners of his mouth were tightened, and the evil spirit was slightly raised.
Jian Xiu looked at Liu Piaoyi, with a doting smile in his eyes.
