Fu Duozhi nodded in agreement, and then beckoned to the little guy, who understood, and stood behind Xia Yan with the guys who came with him, waiting for him.

"Girl, we are all at your command, you can give the order." The little servant saluted respectfully.

Seeing that the guys of Ruyizhai were ready, Xia Yan was about to give the order to do it, but he saw those big men kneeling down violently and begging for mercy: "Girl, girl, we know that we are wrong, even if you beat or scold, we will never resist." It's just that we must not lose our livelihood by eating, and our family is counting on this money to live. ”

It's no wonder that these big men are so afraid, they, who are five big and three rough, have no skills and have never read books, can only do some running houses and guarding thugs in this Qin County.

It's nothing to be beaten, it's a big deal to lie in bed for a few days, and when you wake up, you're still a good man.

But if there is no place to hire them, they will lose their jobs, and sooner or later they will starve to death.

Although Ruyizhai is the same in Qin County, as long as they are out of the scope of Qin County, they have nothing to do, but these big men have already started a family, there are old and young, and it is not so easy to leave if they want to leave with their families.

So at this time, dignity or anything is no longer very important, as long as you can keep your job.

"For the sake of your family's sake, I can promise you." Xia Yan sneered, "But you have to tell me who did this kind of beastly thing to Qing'er." If you still shield that person, don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

"We say, we say." In order to keep their jobs, those big men didn't care about the relationship between brothers, so they stretched out their hands neatly and pointed to the third person on the left, "It's him, Ah Zhong did it." ”

"Ah Zhong?" Xia Yan looked at the man everyone was pointing to.

I saw that the man was wearing the same coarse cloth jacket as everyone else, with a loyal and honest face, if everyone didn't prove that he did it, Xia Yan wouldn't have guessed that it was him even if he wanted to break his head.

It can only be said that people should not be disguised.

Seeing Xia Yan's gaze sweeping, Ah Zhong's originally raised head lowered and lowered, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Your name and man really don't deserve it." Xia Yan looked at Ah Zhong coldly, "You really did this?" ”

"Yes, yes." Seeing that everyone was pointing at him, there was no possibility of concealment, Ah Zhong could only nod and admit.

It's not that he dares to act, but he thinks that this little girl is only seven or eight years old, which is the age of being fooled, and he will be able to win her sympathy by pretending to be pitiful casually, and no longer care about him.

So, Ah Zhong begged for mercy with a sincere face: "Girl, I'm ...... I was just...... It was only a momentary dizziness that offended the girl. After all, I am an unmarried man with blood and steel, and I am inevitably a little uncontrollable when I am pounced on by a girl, I really ...... I really didn't mean to. ”

"You're right." Xia Yan was expressionless, "Such a big person, he can't even control this, how can he have the face to live in this world, let me give you a ride reluctantly." ”

"Girl, don't, don't." Ah Zhong kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, "I know it's wrong, I'm ...... I'll take care of it. ”

"Oh?" Xia Yan raised his eyebrows, "How are you responsible, let's hear it?" ”

"I ...... I would like to marry that girl. Ah Zhong gritted his teeth as if he had made some difficult decision, "That girl looks ordinary, and she is a maid who sold herself into slavery, and she almost lost her innocence in front of everyone, so she must not be able to marry a good family in the future." So...... So I was willing to marry her as compensation for her. You see, are you satisfied with this solution? ”

Xia Yan was not in a hurry to make a decision, but asked disdainfully, "Are you the so-called good person?" ”’

"Of course." Ah Zhong patted his chest proudly, "The villain is not talented, although his father and mother died early, and he has no brothers, but he has also fought a little bit of family business in this Qin County, and he can ensure that he has no worries about food and clothing." When the girl married me, she didn't have to serve her father-in-law, she didn't have to get along with her concubine, and she didn't have to serve her master, so she got out of slavery and resumed her status as a good citizen. This comfortable day is not comparable to other women. ”

Then he glanced at Qing'er, who was full of sluggishness, and smiled disdainfully, "It's not that I look down on your maid, no matter how you look at her, she is a country girl, and she has become a slave, if I really didn't look down on her before." I don't know what's going on today, I didn't control myself for a while, so I did such a stupid thing. ”

As soon as Ah Zhong's words fell, the people around him nodded in unison.

No matter how you look at it, this maid is ordinary, even if she gives them as a concubine, it is estimated that few people are willing to accept it, not to mention that she has entered the slave registration again, how can anyone give her the position of wife.

"This girl's life is really good." Someone in the crowd spoke, "With her kind of goods, I don't want to give it to me." ”

"That is, although today is the fault of this person named Ah Zhong, he is already willing to compensate her with the position of his wife, which can be regarded as benevolence and righteousness. If I were to be me, at most I would buy her from this girl and make her a rough girl. ”

"It's like you're willing to touch her in public."

"Hahaha, what you said makes sense, I just can't help but be so hungry, it's better to go to the Cuihong Mansion to satisfy my hunger."

"Little girl, you just promise him, if you beat him to death, revenge will be avenged, but it will also ruin your maid's life."

……

Listening to everyone's discussions, Ah Zhong smiled crookedly, thinking that his method must be excellent, this girl will definitely be willing, after all, this is a rare and good marriage.

At this moment, Qing'er, who had been frightened and stunned for a long time, gradually sobered up when she heard everyone's discussions.

"Miss." Qing'er found Xia Yan's figure and shouted.

Xia Yan heard Qing'er's shout and hurriedly turned his head to look.

I saw that Qing'er no longer had the sluggish appearance just now, and her eyes were already clear, but tears kept pouring out like a spring.

"Qing'er, you're awake." Xia Yan walked towards Qing'er quickly, squatted down and took her hand, "Are you okay, do you feel uncomfortable there, there is a doctor here, I will let him help you take a look." ”

"No, miss." Qing'er shook her head, "I'm fine, I'm just stunned for so long, which makes Miss worried." ”

"It's okay, it's okay." Xia Yan wiped the tears on Qing'er's face, "Let's stop crying, if you have any grievances, I'll call the shots for you." ”

"Miss, I've heard everything they said." Qing'er said, crying even more, "Will Qing'er not be able to marry in the future?" ”

"No, no, there will definitely be people queuing up to come to me in the future to ask for Qing'er." Xia Yan held Qing'er's hands tightly and smiled, "At that time, I'll be worried, should I choose the son of the Wang family or the young master of the Li family for you?" ”

"Miss......" Qing'er knew that her young lady was comforting herself, so she just pursed her lips lightly and squeezed out an ugly smile.

"Girl, don't listen to your young lady fooling you." The onlookers listened to the conversation between the two, and they really couldn't listen to it, "She's hurting you, you don't want to think about it, with your appearance, how can there be a son of the Wang family and a young master of the Li family?" She's just comforting you, it's better to be self-aware. ”

Qing'er blushed and nodded to everyone, but she didn't say anything to them.

Xia Yan really couldn't stand it anymore, stood up and pointed at those people: "How did you talk?" I know my family's Qing'er best, she is only young now, and she has not yet grown. You wait, in less than three years, you will definitely regret saying such things today. ”

"Little girl, are you blind to us?" Those people looked at Xia Yan with a look of a fool, "You have twelve, even if it doesn't grow any longer, this general appearance has been set, and it will definitely not be possible to see it well in the future." ”

Saying that, those people looked at Qing'er with a look of "I'm good for you", "Girl, don't listen to your young lady, she is just a little girl, what can she understand?" I think this Ah Zhong is very good, more than enough for you. Besides, you almost lost your innocence in front of us today, and if this news goes out, you can only end up alone in this life. I advise you to seize the opportunity in front of you, you must know that after this village, there will be no such shop. ”

"Qing'er, don't listen to them, they ......"

Xia Yan wanted to say something, but was interrupted by those onlookers: "You little girl, you are not big, why are you so bad-hearted." This is your maid's only chance to turn over, do you want her to be a maid for you for a lifetime, it's really vicious. ”

"You ......"

"What are we, this is your maid's lifelong event, don't delay others."

"You are saying this as a matter of course, but do you know that Qing'er is willing?" Xia Yan looked coldly at the aggressive crowd of onlookers, "You guys are forcing her." ”

"Why not?" Those people scoffed at Xia Yan's words, "Such a good marriage, but it can only be asked for with a lantern, and only a fool will disagree." ”

They didn't bother to talk to Xia Yan anymore, thinking that this was a willful lady who didn't know how to sympathize with her subordinates, and they had nothing to say to her.

These people looked at Qing'er expectantly and asked, "Girl, are you willing to marry Ah Zhong?" Don't worry, if your young lady doesn't agree, we will definitely sue her to the yamen, and I believe that the county master will definitely make decisions for you. ”

Qing'er slowly stood up and saluted everyone, "What you said is good, Qing'er is already a slave, and it is indeed a great thing for me that Ah Zhong is willing to marry me."

"Well, you're not a fool." Those people were very satisfied with Qing'er's answer, and looked at Xia Yan with a provocative expression, "Little girl, your maid has agreed, are you the master willing to let him go?" ”
