Chapter 8 Helpers

Mo Li looked at Hongdou seriously for a while, and didn't speak, Hongdou couldn't stand such a gaze, so he had to lower his eyes and say: "It's not that I don't help the girl, but, it's that the girl explained to me where to go out and what to do, otherwise I won't dare to hide it from death." ”

Mo Li sighed, walked to the chair and sat down, and was silent for a while before opening his mouth and said, "I just went to Yang's house for a walk, and I will be back in a while." ”

Hongdou raised his face, opened his mouth in surprise, and said after a long time: "Is it difficult for the girl, is she going to find Yang Gongzi theory?" ”

Mo Li smiled faintly, neither admitting nor denying it. She trusts Hongdou, there is no doubt about it, this girl is two years younger than her, as old as Xue Lin, but she is simple in nature and has a strong sense of justice. When her family was most embarrassed, she wanted to find a good way out for Hongdou, but this girl didn't want to, no matter rich or poor, she would never abandon her side.

It's just that now, she doesn't have much time to explain this to Hongdou, and she can't explain it. And the situation she was about to face now, on the other side of the inner court, she desperately needed a helper she could trust, and she also needed someone who could help her outside.

"Girl, there is still the old lady, the old lady is in charge of you, why do you ......"

Mo Li suddenly held Hongdou's hand: "Hongdou, you can help me, I'm just going out for a while, it won't take more than an hour." Right now, the big guys are taking a nap, you just need to help me watch the house, and be especially careful not to let Xue Lin on the other side find out. ”

"Girl......" Hongdou bit her lip, although she had always been obedient to Mo Li, but she couldn't make up her mind about this matter.

Knowing that Hongdou's heart was loose, Mo Li hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, and immediately stood up and said, "You go to the kitchen first, if Sister-in-law Gu is here, you can think of supporting her for a while." Then go around to the small door and say to Ah Sheng, he is mostly there at this time, so he said that I have something to find him, let him come out first. ”

Hongdou was startled again, and Mo Li said in a low voice: "Look at your nervous appearance, I have to find someone to drive for me, otherwise how can I go by alone." ”

"But Ah Sheng......"

"Do as I say, don't worry, I'll tell him that's it." Mo Li pushed the red bean as she spoke, urging her to hurry up, and told her to be careful, so as not to let people see the clues.

After the red beans went out, Mo Li took out the box where he specially put silver coins and opened it, but he saw that there was not much in it, so after a rough calculation, it was barely enough for ten taels. Although it is not unexpected, it seems that he was used to handling large amounts of silver coins in the Han Mansion before, and now he suddenly found that he could use it at will, just this bit of broken silver and sparse copper coins, and he was a little stunned for a while.

Mo Li looked at her jewelry box again, there were a few passable pieces of jewelry in it, but it seemed that they were all given to her by her mother two or three years ago, when the family's business was still good, and the style looked old. She closed the jewelry box after a few glances, and it was not enough to sell these things, and besides, it was not worth a lot of money. After picking out a few taels of silver and dozens of copper coins and loading them, the red beans returned.

Mo Li asked, "Is Ah Sheng here?" Did you run into anyone else on the way back? ”

Hongdou said lightly: "Yes, I didn't meet anyone, I mostly stayed in the house at this time, and the cook also went back." ”

Mo Li nodded all over the place, and then walked out, Hongdou stopped her worriedly and tangledly: "Girl, you really ......"

Mo Li turned around and patted her on the shoulder, smiled lightly, but didn't say anything, and went out. Soon passed through the small kitchen door and came to the place where the guys in the outer courtyard lived, and it was also a loss that Mo Liujin dismissed the two guys some time ago, so now Ah Sheng lives alone, and the other guy is in the shop in front, and Mr. Gu and Gu Chef Niang in the account room have another place to live.

When Mo Li walked over, Ah Sheng was braiding a thick rope in his hand, and he didn't know what to do. Since it was summer and afternoon, the weather was a little stuffy, so he tore the placket of his shirt very open, revealing a large strong, strong honey-colored chest, lining the wolf tooth hanging from his neck, making his whole person look more rough and unruly.

"What's the big girl looking for me?" After seeing Mo Li coming, he slowed down the movements in his hand and raised his face to look at Mo Li curiously. When he came back from Guanghua Temple before, the moment Mo Li looked back, he felt that there were some articles in it.

"How much do you get a month now?" Mo Li didn't answer his words, but asked first.

Ah Sheng glanced at Mo Li with some surprise, and suddenly smiled: "Before, it was one or two dollars, but after the shopkeeper asked those two people to return, I took Uncle Zhao's difference, and it rose to one or two or eight dollars." The big girl asked what this was for? ”

"I'll add another one or two a month, and if I need to go out in the future, can you help me and use the carriage to make it easier for me."

"The eldest girl wants the carriage to just say no, why don't you add another amount of money to me."

"Since I'm looking for you in private, I naturally want to go out privately, if you are too little, I will add two taels."

Ah Sheng looked at Mo Li for a while, then shook his head, and said in a coaxing tone: "Big girl, I can't answer you about this, go back quickly, it's not suitable to run around like this at the beginning of a serious illness."

Mo Li frowned, Ah Sheng would refuse, she was actually not angry, and she felt a sense of relief in her heart. For Ah Sheng, she can't trust him as much as she trusts Hongdou, but now she can't find another person who is more suitable than him, if this matter can help her see this person clearly, it is worth her more thought, so it can be regarded as finding a good helper for her in the future.

And she had to go out today, so after a while, Mo Li said again: "If you help me once today, you should repay the kindness of the day." ”

Three years ago, during the snowstorm in Yongzhou, a large number of victims poured into the city from outside, and countless people died of freezing and starvation. At that time, she also accompanied Mo Liujin to give porridge to those disaster victims, and it was also at that meeting that Mo Liujin needed to find a young and strong man, but there were many applicants who came, and later she named Ah Sheng's name to let him get this difference.

Ah Sheng smiled and stood up from the horse: "What the hell does the big girl have to go out without permission?" If I think I can, it's not that I can't help with this. ”

Mo Li was silent for a while before looking at him and whispered: "The Yang family wants to withdraw from the family, and I want to seek justice for myself." ”

Ah Sheng was not surprised by the word "retreat", but raised his eyebrows, and then looked at her a little strangely: "You just went to the Yang family to seek justice?" ”

Mo Li met his gaze, and then threw out the second tentative sentence: "Naturally not, you can go out with me and understand." ”
