Chapter 58: Murder and Fugitive Slaves
Mama Li couldn't help but shudder, and said in a low voice: "In this way, the old slave immediately went to find Mama Chen." ”
Lan'e tapped her chin and raised her hand to put the curtain.
The healthy women here still carried the sedan chair up the mountain, and after about half a minute, the soft sedan chair fell to the ground.
The servant woman stepped forward and lifted the brocade curtain, and Lan'e got out of the sedan chair.
The maid of the gate hurriedly greeted her and gave her salute.
She only gave half of it......
Wang Xian hurriedly came over, pulled Lan E and said, "A'e, can we go to Dongshi?" I heard Ah Qiu say that there are many jewelry shops in the East Market, and there are also those that sell mushroom rice and roasted dog liver. A'e...... I ate dog liver a few years ago. ”
It is said that she is four years older than Lan'e, and at this time she grabbed Lan'e and hummed, and she was coquettish.
Lan E was hummed and had a headache, and then looked at the sky and it was still early, and then thought that Cui's was in Qixiao Hall again, anyway, the two of them had nothing to do when they were idle......
Lan E glanced at the servant woman, and when the servant woman retreated, she whispered to Wang Xian: "Now that grandmother is sick, if we go out with great fanfare, first, there will be a group of servants to manage the heads and feet, and second, it will be easy to be honest." ”
Isn't it just changing clothes and sneaking away!
Wang Xian sneered, and threw a disdainful look at Lan E: "I know, I'm waiting for you at the Moon Cave Gate." ”
Now that the discussion has been completed, the sisters entered the Diecui Pavilion together, and when one went straight to the backyard, the other lifted the skirt and returned to the flowers.
Mama Li was not there, and Amo stayed in Qixiao Hall, and there was no first-class maid in charge of the courtyard...... The four third-class maidservants watched Lan E put on a cloak of silk yarn...... Walking Dada out of the moon cave door.
Wang Xian was waiting outside the door for a long time, and when she saw her coming out, she saw that she was wearing a cloak on a hot day, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile: "Even if it's a yarn, it's hot with this drape, right?" This one...... The color is too eye-catching. ”
Eye-catching?
Lan E rolled her eyes: "There are still four maids in the courtyard, if you see me wearing cloth clothes, you and I will have to be arrested if you can't get out of the house." ”
As she spoke, her hands were not idle, and she untied her cloak a few times.
The silk yarn was soft and thin, and she was so three and two balls, and in a few clicks, it became a small ball the size of a palm.
Lan'e tucked it into her sleeve pocket, and then clapped her little hand: "Go, go out of the house." ”
Diecui Mountain stretches for more than ten miles, the southeast two sides are enclosed into the Wang family's old house, and the northwest two sides still extend outward.
The two of them descended the north path.
When she arrived at the foot of the mountain, Lan E saw that an old man at the bottom of the mountain was tying up firewood and loading it on the ox cart, so she stepped forward and asked, "Dare to ask the old man if he is going to ...... when he has collected firewood." ”
Her voice was sweet and her appearance was very pleasing, so the old man smiled and said, "I'm going to sell firewood in the East Market." When the firewood and grass were put away, he looked back at the sisters and asked, "Are the two little ladies going to the market?" ”
Ah! Lan E bent her eyebrows for a moment, but before she could speak, Wang Xian interjected: "We are just going to Dongshi, can we take a car?" ”
At that time, the folk customs were simple, and the two little ladies were said to be rough men, and the old man also allowed him to take a ride.
The old man smiled and said, "As long as the two little ladies don't dislike it, just sit down." ”
There's a car!
The two sisters smiled instantly, stepped forward to lift and hug, and when they helped load the firewood and grass, the two climbed into the wheel.
The ox cart swayed leisurely and carried the two of them to the East Market. When they reached the bustle of the market, the sisters got out of the ox cart.
Lan'e stepped on the bluestone wrench under her feet, and there was a moment of trance in her heart, in order to sell fox skins to make clothes, she had come to Dongshi with Mrs. Xue that year.
East Market ...... Lan E raised her little face and looked at the shops one by one, and the fat powder shop ...... Silk ...... Chan Kee Liquor Shop.
Wine shop! The brand on the bamboo pole has lost its paint, and the red tassels that fall below have faded under the wind and sun.
It's still this one!
I used mushroom rice here that day...... Stir-fried Chinese cabbage...... The mother was disgusted with the smell of dog meat and refused to put down the chopsticks......
Wang Xian looked around, and when she looked back, she saw Lan E staring at the wine shop in a daze, so she pulled her and asked, "Are you hungry?" I drank half a bowl of porridge when I got up early, or I would eat first, and then play. ”
You drank half a bowl of porridge, but this lady didn't even touch the porridge bowl.
Lan E suppressed the sourness in her heart, raised her eyebrows and said, "I remember that this family has mushroom rice, and there is also roasted dog liver." ”
Hearing that there is a dog liver in this house, Wang Xian's eyes lit up for a while, and she hurriedly pulled Lan E and said, "What are you doing here?" Let's go! ”
The place where the two got off the ox cart was diagonally opposite the wine shop, and at this time it was almost noon, the ox carts and carriages in the market were constantly shuttling, and the sound of selling and sending off customers came and went.
The two of them avoided the oncoming traffic and walked hand in hand to the opposite side. Just walked to the middle of the street, Lan E raised her eyes at first glance and saw a man walking in front of the wine shop.
This man wears a bamboo hat on his head, and the pressure on the edge of the hat is extremely low. In fact, whether he wears a bamboo hat or not, whether the bamboo hat is high or low is not the point, the point is that when he raised his hand and dragged it down, Lan'e saw a finger-sized mole on the back of his hand.
She has only seen one person have this kind of mole, Pei Fang!
Since he killed two grandmothers in Li's mansion, this person has been like a mud cow into the sea.
This person is considered a fugitive slave of the Wang family, and he is even more ...... with Pei Liu
Lan E approached Wang Xian and whispered, "Pei Fang, that person has a mole on his hand." ”
Wang Xian didn't know what Pei Fang had to do with the mole, but she knew that Pei Liuniang was the one who ordered this person to kill her personal grandmother, and as soon as the two grandmothers died, she was forced by the Li family to protect her with a knife...... There was nowhere to go again.
Wang Xian narrowed her eyes and asked hatefully, "Where is it?" ”
Lan E put her elbow on her waist and pointed slightly to the side of the long street...... At this time, the man wearing the bamboo hat was in a trance, and he was scurrying to the front of an ox cart in a few big strides.
Wang Xian swept her eyes and saw it, and her eyes were glared for a moment...... Tongue blooming spring thunder: "Murder fugitive!" Ah! Dai Zhuli's ...... Killed! ”
Her voice was already high, and at this time, she was excited and excited, and opened her throat even more.
On the long street, the vehicles were driving in an orderly manner, and she went down a few times, and in an instant, people shouted and neighed.
Some people were in a hurry to hide in the shop, and a few men ran out with bench kitchen knives: "Where is the fugitive?" Which is? ”
"The little lady has it...... Which is it? ”
The crowd gathered around and gossiped.
Lan E wanted to hug her head...... Think...... wants to cover her face, how did she forget Wang Xian's hot nature!
Wang Xian didn't have time to deal with these people, shook her hand to break away from Lan'e, withdrew her legs and chased along the long street: "That's it...... Ay?! Bamboo hats are thrown, bamboo hats are thrown! The one in the gray shirt...... I had a black ...... on my waist. Black girdle, ...... A knife pinned to his head...... I'm tired of this girl! ”
She shouted as she chased, and when Lan'e got out and ran out, she saw her chasing to the end of the long street, and then ...... The sound is far ...... Straight out of the city.
This fool is a fool!
Lan E couldn't help but raise her hand to support her forehead, helped half of it, and then took out a handful of copper from her sleeve, grabbed the man with the kitchen knife, and stuffed the copper into his hand: "Go to the Wang family in Ping'anfang quickly...... Looking for Wang Bi, oh looking for Wang Changcheng! ”
The surroundings were chaotic and noisy, and she said quickly and quickly, the man only heard her say that the Wang family was in a trance, and when he wanted to ask again, he saw her squeeze out of the crowd and go far away in a blink of an eye.
