Chapter 16: The Savior

The consternation didn't last long, and she was frightened by the Liao soldiers who swarmed in!

Those men rushed in with knives and spears! Unceremoniously began to search around!

The sharp spearhead was thrust into the firewood pile built in the firewood room!

The stove has also been turned upside down!

Even the well in the center of the courtyard was not spared, and several Liao soldiers threw stones into it to listen to the movement, and held torches to see if there were any Tibetans inside.

Hua Qingxue stood behind Fu Tingye with a cower, lowering her head and making a timid and afraid little daughter-in-law.

Their courtyard is not large, with a total of two rooms, and the Liao soldiers quickly searched it.

The leading soldier walked up to the two of them, took out a roll of white paper, opened it and showed it to Fu Tingye and Hua Qingxue, and asked in a fierce tone: "Have you ever seen a little boy of eight or nine years old?!" Probably looks like this! ”

Fu Tingye was like a stupid big man who was stunned, he carefully looked at the painting, shook his head and slowly replied: "I haven't seen ......"

Hua Qingxue also hurriedly agreed: "I haven't seen it." In fact, she didn't even dare to lift her head, let alone see what the person in the painting looked like.

The soldier leader didn't embarrass them, maybe because he was in a hurry, waved his hand, and hurried to search for the next one.

Seeing such a large number of people leaving, Hua Qingxue finally breathed a sigh of relief, carefully closed the courtyard door, put on the deadbolt, and looked back - Fu Tingye had returned to normal.

His eyes, as deep as the dark night, looked at the closed courtyard gate for a moment, as if he was thinking.

Hua Qingxue thought he would say something, but Fu Tingye had already retracted his gaze and strode towards the hall, and his figure quickly disappeared at the door of the main house.

Hua Qingxue turned her eyes to look at the yard that had been turned over by the Liao soldiers, sighed, and began to clean up without saying a word.

……

Because of the lockdown and search, it has become almost impossible to get out of the city in the near future.

Fu Tingye and Hua Qingxue could only continue to live.

Hua Qingxue was still sleeping on the hot kang, and Fu Tingye was still sleeping on his cold bench.

Hua Qingxue felt that she couldn't go, so she moved a bench and placed it in the middle of the kang, and then found a piece of cloth to cover on the bench. In this way, it is like building a low wall on the kang, blocking the scenery on both sides.

Fu Tingye probably also felt that sleeping on the bench was not a long-term solution, and after seeing Hua Qingxue's arrangement, he didn't say anything, and silently accepted such an arrangement. At night, the two of them slept on one end and were safe and sound.

Fu Tingye was away from home most of the day.

Hua Qingxue guessed that he should contact those eyeliners planted in Ren Qiu to find a way out of the city as soon as possible.

She had nothing to do at home, but she quickly washed the clothes of those Liao soldiers.

Clothes will have to be washed sooner or later, otherwise I am afraid that there will be another turmoil, after all, she received a deposit at the beginning.

On this day, Fu Tingye went out again, Hua Qingxue asked Aunt Yan to borrow a cart for restaurant purchasing, folded the clothes that had been washed in the past few days, wrapped them with a clean cloth, and then pulled the cart to the Yamen Mansion in Renqiu City.

Since the last accident, the streets have been more deserted than ever, even in broad daylight, there are not a few people in sight, and the shops on the street have simply closed their doors because of the impact on business, and there are few customers anyway......

Despite this, Hua Qingxue didn't dare to be careless, and deliberately exposed a few washed Liao soldiers' clothes on the outside. - She was really frightened by the indiscriminate robbery in the streets and alleys a few days ago.

In troubled times, rioters were rampant.

Hua Qingxue didn't want her big burden to attract the attention of those people.

There was no danger all the way to the yamen, Hua Qingxue explained her intention, and the soldiers at the door did not embarrass her, and waved her hand to let her in.

Hua Qingxue pulled the cart in with difficulty.

The official in charge of the acceptance is a native of Renqiu City, and he looks arrogant and difficult to deal with.

He beckoned a few people to move the clothes on the cart into the house, and Hua Qingxue saw that there was nothing to do with herself, so she pulled up the empty cart and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, the man stopped her and said impatiently, "Did I let you go?" Stay here first! I'll leave after checking my clothes! ”

Hua Qingxue said yes and stood obediently at the door of the house.

These Liao soldiers and officials in Renqiu City are very angry, and they like to find fault and stir up trouble at every turn, Hua Qingxue can only try to reduce her sense of existence, and she doesn't want to be noticed by these people.

There was a charcoal fire in the house, it was very warm, but Hua Qingxue didn't dare to go in, she lowered her head and stood motionless outside the door, hoping that this person would quickly check all her clothes, so that she could go back quickly.

But the clothes are not so quick to be checked.

The official had a very unhappy expression, obviously dissatisfied with the errand he was doing now, but because it was the clothes of the Liao, he had to be cautious and carefully checked, and he did not dare to be sloppy at all.

You must know that he was able to win the trust of the Liao people, and it took a lot of effort to get involved in this errand. He is also looking forward to doing a good job and then asking for credit, maybe as soon as the Liao people are happy, they will promote him again?

The cotton clothes were opened one by one, the lining was opened, and the blood stains were checked to see if there was any blood remaining, and then folded one by one and put them back......

After repeating this tedious process more than forty times, he finally began to get impatient.

His eyes were on the half of the long skirt exposed in the doorway, and his mind moved for a moment......

I didn't look carefully just now, but now that I think about it, that woman seems to have been born well?

The official coughed in the house, and said in a strange manner: "What are you doing outside?" Why don't you come in and have a look! I see why it's not cleaned here?! ”

Hua Qingxue was taken aback!

She's washed it all...... If there were unwashed ones, she didn't dare to drag the cart all the way to transport the clothes.

Seeing that she was stunned outside and didn't move, the official became more and more distempered, and muttered directly: "Lao Tzu told you to come in!" Deaf?! ”

Hua Qingxue hurriedly lowered her head and came in, and asked cautiously, "Don't dare, may I ask the poor master, which piece of clothing has not been washed?" ”

"See for yourself! That's it, and I see there's blood on it! The servant raised the cotton robe in his hand.

The clothes were in the hands of others, so Hua Qingxue had to get closer.

She took the clothes from the other party's hand, and before she could take a closer look, the man next to her suddenly hugged her! The stinky mouth goes straight to her face!

"Little lady, where can you see clearly? Let me teach you ......"

Hua Qingxue was shocked and hurriedly reached out to push!

But the man's strength is naturally much greater than hers, and his two arms are like pliers to clamp her tightly! Hua Qingxue was in a hurry for a while, and she couldn't take care of much, so she grabbed the cotton clothes in her hand and covered the man's face! I want to block the stinky mouth he came up!

The other party let go of her at once!

Hua Qingxue panicked, turned around and fled to the door! It's just that before she ran out, the man behind her had already waved off the clothes on his face, caught up in a few steps, and grabbed Hua Qingxue's shoulder!

"Stinky! Toast without eating and eating penalty wine! "He said, he raised his slap and was about to be beaten!

Hua Qingxue was so frightened that she subconsciously closed her eyes, but she only heard a bang! The restraints on the arms suddenly disappeared?!

When she opened her eyes, she found that the official seemed to have been kicked away, and the whole person fell to the ground, even the table behind him fell to the ground! The clothes of acceptance are scattered all over the ground!

"Chen Lao Liu, you are moisturizing these days, let you check your clothes, and you can also have fun."

A sneering voice came from behind her.

Hua Qingxue turned her head to look and was surprised to find that it was the Liao soldier......

The official on the ground grinned in pain, but he could only dare to be angry and dare not speak, and said with a smiling face: "Let the Lord of Qianhu see ...... laugh."

Hua Qingxue was dumbfounded......

A few days ago, he was just promoted to the general flag, but he didn't expect to be a thousand households now?! This man's official fortune is prosperous, and he has risen so fast......

"Why don't you get out of here?!" He drank coldly, his tone soft, but full of weight.

Hua Qingxue was thinking in a daze, this roll was said to her, or to the official on the ground, when she saw him walk to the official and kick it again.

Hua Qingxue: "......"

The official covered his stomach and bent over, got up and limped and walked quickly, and when he passed by Hua Qingxue, he didn't even dare to look at her more.

The man looked at Hua Qingxue's stunned appearance, and a mocking smile appeared on his face, "Hey, scared silly?" You're such a stupid woman that you actually sent it to the door yourself. ”

"I'm ......" Hua Qingxue opened her mouth, and finally lowered her head cowardly, "I'm here to deliver clothes." ”

"Well, I see, it's a nice wash." He said casually and asked, "How's your hand?" Stick it out and I'll see. ”

Hua Qingxue was completely confused......

What do you suddenly want to look at her hands?

Having said that, Hua Qingxue didn't dare to provoke these moody Liao soldiers, and she slowly raised her hand, revealing her hands full of red and swollen chilblains.

"Tut-tut......" he made a disgusted sound, took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, and handed it to Hua Qingxue, "Apply it once a night before going to bed, if the chilblains are stained with water, you should also apply it immediately, this is the best chilblain cream, use it carefully for me, don't waste it." ”

Hua Qingxue looked at the porcelain vase he handed over in a daze, and was even more stunned......

It's so decent, why do you give her medicine?

Seeing that she didn't move, the man's sneering tone immediately brought a bit of sharpness: "What? Do you want me to ask you to accept it? ”

Hua Qingxue's heart jumped, she hurriedly caught the medicine bottle, and said in a low voice: "Thank you...... Thank you, Lord Chino...... Complimentary ......"

The man was satisfied and laughed, "Remember, my name is Qi Liancheng, you can't even know what the name of the life-saving benefactor is, right?" ”

Hua Qingxue didn't dare to answer indiscriminately, nodded in a proper manner, pursed her lips and didn't open her mouth.

Qi Liancheng smiled ruffianly, I don't know if it was sarcasm or a casual joke: "It's really a saw-mouthed gourd, not much stronger than wood." ”

Then he asked, "Hey, what's your name?" ”

Hua Qingxue lowered her head and replied truthfully: "Hua Qingxue." ”

"Hua Qingxue......" Qi Liancheng read her name slowly, "...... Hmm, that's a good name. ”

Hua Qingxue was silent, feeling uneasy in her heart.

Who knew that this Qi Liancheng didn't know which nerve was in the wrong place, so he asked with a warm-hearted look: "Didn't you say that my sister was lost before?" Did you find it later? How about it, do you need me to send you a notice and look for it all over the city? ”
