Chapter 39 039
Chu Wanwan was half incredulous, and when he hesitated, the door of the secret room in front of him opened, and the lights inside suddenly turned on, and a figure turned his back to the door.
Li Niang went up and knelt down: "Pavilion master, the county lord is here." After saying that, he silently withdrew.
Chu Wanwan watched Li Niang retreat, and looked at the back curiously.
"How many months will the county lord come to this news, do you want it or not?"
The back made a deep male voice, and when he turned his head, it was a man in his forties, dressed in black, and the whole person was also in the dark.
"You are the Pavilion Master of Qingfeng Pavilion? Since the lord of this county has sent silver, this news is naturally wanted. "It should be the former county lord who entrusted her to do something here, but she is dead, these secret things should be important to her at that time, since Chu Wanwan has occupied her body, she must understand her previous affairs, if she has any wishes, she should also complete it for her.
"In this way, please take this box back with the county lord, there is naturally news that the county lord wants to know." The man gave Chu Wanwan a small box, which was relatively light, and he didn't know what it contained.
Chu Wanwan took the box and looked at it, thinking that he came in with a heavy thousand taels of silver every month, so he changed this small box, I don't know if it should be canceled, or go back to see what is inside.
"Then I'll take my leave." Chu turned around and left.
The man shouted to stop Chu Wanwan: "County Lord, the contents of this box must not be seen by others." ”
Chu Wanwan nodded: "I'm not a fool, what I bought with my own money, I will naturally keep it." ”
Walking out of the basement, Li Niang waited in the room, and when she saw Chu Wanwan coming out, she took her out, and as soon as she opened the door, Xiaoxiao and Chun'er came over anxiously.
"Are you alright?"
"It's okay, let's go back."
Chu Wanwan pulled them out of the door, Li Niang followed them out, when they passed the backyard, they heard a scream inside, Chu Wanwan shook in fright, this scream suppressed the pain, and did not dare to shout it all, but it sounded particularly infiltrating.
"What's going on?" Chu Wanwan asked Li Niang.
"It's nothing, it's just training some disobedient ones, the county lord Jin Zhiyuye can't see this, so let's go to the lobby, there are beautiful singing and dancing performances there."
After saying that, Li Niang wanted to take Chu Wanwan to the lobby, but Chu Wanwan broke free of her hand, lifted her skirt and ran to the backyard.
"County Lord!" Chun'er hurriedly caught up, he probably guessed what was going on inside, but these things ...... The county lord is so beautiful, he shouldn't see it!
But no one moved quickly, she ran to the door where the sound came from, and kicked the door open, but the scene inside was something she never expected, the room was different from the gorgeous and rich in the lobby, and it was even very dirty, and when the door was opened, there was a foul smell, and there were seven or eight-year-old children hanging inside, tied to the pillar naked, and there was no scar on the surface, but the boy's face was pale, and the girl's face was unnaturally red, and there were two people who were guarding them next to them.
Xiaoxiao immediately blocked in front of Chu Wanwan: "Don't you want to live, the county lord of Wanwan is here." ”
The two people immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Chu Wan.
"It turned out to be the county lord, and the little ones naturally didn't dare to make a mistake, but this filthy place ......"
The screams just now were made by these two children, but there were no scars on the surface at all, Chu Wanwan looked at the strong man in front of him and was also puzzled, and he didn't know whether to leave for a while.
"Does the county lord want to take care of this?" Chun'er asked Chu Wanwan in a low voice.
Chu Wanwan looked at the two children, feeling pity, they didn't want to be here, although she couldn't save the poor people in the entire pavilion, she could save two is two, and after she planned well, she changed the atmosphere of the entire Lan Ling Country: "They ...... It's also pitiful. ”
Chun'er nodded knowingly, and said to Li Niang: "How much are these two children, the county lord bought them." ”
Li Niang smiled: "The county lord can naturally afford it, but there are rules in the pavilion, you will buy it today, and everyone will follow suit, isn't Qingfeng Pavilion going to be emptied?" ”
Chu Wanwan frowned: "I only buy these two." ”
"County Lord, there are many children like this in this pavilion, since the county lord has a good heart, what's the point of buying only these two." Li Niang pursed her lips disdainfully, gently shaking the fan in her hand.
Chu Wan thought about it for a while, and remembered an allusion: "There was a man who led the ox through the hall, and when the king saw it, he asked him where he led the ox, and the man replied: I want to use it to sacrifice the bell, and the king said: Let it go!" I couldn't bear to see it trembling with fear and being dragged to kill it without any guilt. The man asked, "Then don't you want to sacrifice the bell?" The king said, "How can you not want it?" Replace it with sheep!"
Li Niang smiled: "Aren't the kings and county lords in this story doing the same now, replacing cattle with sheep, but sheep is not life?" The county lord brought these two children back today, and the two things to do will be replaced by other children. ”
But this is the manifestation of benevolence, and when the king sees the ox but not the sheep, of course he will not bear the ox. A gentleman is also to beasts, seeing their life, and not being able to bear to see their death; Hearing its voice, I can't bear to eat its flesh. It is a gentleman who cooks far away. If I hadn't seen these two children today, I would have felt compassion for them. But when I'm more capable, I'll do more. ”
Chu Wanwan didn't remember all the contents of the specific classical Chinese, but it was probably what it meant, and after speaking, he found that they were all looking at him in surprise, Chu Wanwan was puzzled: "Why are you looking at me like this?" ”
Li Niang came back to her senses first, and immediately ordered: "Pack up these two children and send them to the county lord's mansion." ”
"How much silver?" Chu bent his flesh and felt a pain, not only did he not take back the contract of one thousand taels of silver for a month when he came here today, but he took the silver again.
"The county lord has such insight, Li Niang admires it very much, these two children should only be given to the county lord by the slave family."
Don't want money? Chu Wanwan was pleasantly surprised, it turned out that in ancient times, not only was he rich and powerful and could be looked down upon, but his talent and knowledge could also be respected.
Chu Wanwan didn't know what she said and this incident in this backyard today, and the world was surprised by the benevolence of the county lord of Wanwan, especially the phrase "the gentleman is far away from the cook" spread among the readers, and they all admired the county lord's talent and insight.
"The county lord is really a great wisdom and great benevolence." Chun'er was also surprised, although he was only the county lord who was not like the rumored character, he didn't expect that even the four words of mediocrity and incompetence were rumors in the world, the county lord in front of him was wise and kind, persistent and loyal, and his knowledge was far beyond the world, others said that Shen Gongzi was the first genius in Lan Ling Country, and he was ruined by the county lord, but who knew that the county lord's insight may not be compatible with it.
"It's best to be free, go and put those two children down, let's go back, take them away, it's not as simple as it seems, don't make extraneous branches." Chu Wanwan whispered to Chun'er, and Chun'er immediately went to put the two children down, wrapped them in coats, and asked for a deed of sale, so he carried them into the carriage one by one and returned to the mansion with the two children.
