Chapter 160

Shanniang didn't know what the identity of the man who was hiding behind the ruffians and quietly watching the movement in the alley was, and what kind of relationship he had with the flower girl, but this did not prevent her from guessing the conspiracy planned by the man. For in the previous life, that man also used this hand on her son......

She could almost imagine how it began. Xu, like in her previous life, a beautiful flower seller was molested in front of Hou Rui, and Hou Rui, like her stupid son, thought that she acted as a messenger of justice and saved the flower girl once. The flower seller is grateful to her handsome and dashing life-saving benefactor, but she is repeatedly bullied by hooligans and ruffians in front of her benefactor. Coming and going like this, what else can happen between a beautiful girl who looks at herself like a god and a teenager who is just beginning to fall in love?!

In fact, to put it bluntly, this is just an ordinary fairy dance drama. This kind of trick is not new in the Great Zhou, and it was even quite large-scale at one time. There are beautiful little girls who are collected from all over the country and raised as flowers since childhood, and then teach the girls to be like the flower girl, in front of the old and young masters of the rich family, staging this "beauty in distress" drama. If you can lure the rich man into the alley, the shabby family behind it will be in the name of the family, or force the rich man to take money to eliminate the disaster, or simply sell the girl to the other party as a concubine or put it in the outer room, and do the business of fishing for big fish with a long line - this business, at that time, had a name, called "raising flowers".

In his previous life, Shanniang's eldest son fell into such a trap. It's just that no one expected that the two children in the trap would have true feelings for each other......

Although it has been said since ancient times that "it is not the fault of raising a godfather", it seems that the greater responsibility of raising children lies with the father, but at that time, the relationship between Shanniang and Yuan Changqing was extremely stiff, and even Yuan Changqing did not enter the inner house for three or two months, and at that time, she had also developed a paranoid temperament that said nothing, she always thought that she could handle this little thing, so she never told Yuan Changqing about the matter, until she gave the "lew man" a large sum of silver and asked him to sell the girl elsewhere.

What Shanniang didn't expect was that the girl was sold to that kind of place by the "mole man", and then committed suicide......

Like her son, the child was fifteen years old that year.

Looking at the "leech man", thinking about the past, Shanniang grabbed Yuan Changqing's hand and couldn't help but squeeze it tighter and tighter.

Yuan Changqing looked at her very carefully in surprise, shook her hand back, and asked, "What's wrong?" Is there something wrong? ”

Shanniang blinked and forced herself to calm down, and pointed to the "leech man" who was still looking into the alley on the opposite side and said, "Don't you think that person is strange? The one just now reminded me of the things I heard Sister Lu say some time ago. That person can't be a 'flower grower', right? ”

For these methods on the street, it can be said that Yuan Changqing knows much more than Shanniang. But he also knew that Shanniang was not the kind of greenhouse flower who didn't know anything about the outside world, so he didn't doubt Shanniang's explanation, so he also joined her, silently staring at the man's every move.

After a while, I saw Hou Rui rubbing his fingers and coming out of the alley - obviously this fight was won. Behind him, the flower girl was gratefully talking to him, and when she saw him rubbing her fingers, she stepped forward and grabbed his hand, which had been injured from the fight, with a distressed expression on her face. Hou Rui was completely defenseless, and was immediately caught by the girl......

Looking at her brother's stunned appearance, Shanniang couldn't stand it anymore, and was about to get out of the car with her waist on her back. Yuan Changqing hurriedly stopped her and said, "Don't worry, I'll come." ”

However, Yuan Changqing did not get out of the car, but pulled the window and shouted across the road: "Hou Rui." ”

Hou Ruizheng looked at the girl who was holding his hand in a daze, and suddenly heard someone call his name, he instinctively withdrew his hand, and quickly took a step back, and then looked back in the direction of the sound. And then......

He saw the fifth master.

Yes, Hou Rui saw the fifth master.

But it turned out that it was also a coincidence, the fifth wife went to the Yongning Hou Mansion to eat full moon wine, but the fifth master was afraid that those dignitaries and nobles always wanted to ask him for paintings, so it was rare not to follow the fifth wife, but was invited to talk about painting in the teahouse with a few painting friends. He was drinking tea on the second floor of the teahouse, when he suddenly saw the back of a young man in military costume and a flower girl "flirting" downstairs. He only thought that the back was a little like Hou Rui, but thinking that Hou Rui had never had a good impression of girls, he just thought that he was wrong and didn't care until Yuan Changqing called out that voice.

And the fifth master was standing by the window, but Yuan Changqing was hiding in the carriage because he was lazy, Hou Rui looked up like this, and naturally saw the fifth master with an obvious goal at a glance.

The fifth master is not the kind of old-fashioned person, not to mention that Hou Rui is just "flirting" with a flower girl, as long as he is not molesting a woman from a good family on the street, the fifth master is too lazy to ask. Perhaps because he is good at painting, although the fifth master is not shrewd, he has a kind of beast-like keen insight. The first time he met Yuan Changqing, although Yuan Changqing was polite in front of him, he still saw through Yuan Changqing's disguise at a glance. Now the flower girl on the other side of the road, although she looks quite simple as a little girl, gives him a very good impression. Therefore, when he saw Hou Rui looking over, he immediately raised his eyebrows and hooked his finger at Hou Rui - he forgot who called "Hou Rui".

But Hou Rui thought that the fifth master was calling him, and said something to the flower girl, so he hurriedly crossed the road.

Yuan Changqing and Shanniang in the carriage saw him crossing the road, and thought he had seen them, Yuan Changqing immediately opened the door, but watched Hou Rui pass by the carriage without squinting......

"Regoer!" Yuan Changqing had no choice but to scream at Hou Rui's back again.

As soon as Hou Rui turned around, he saw Yuan Changqing. And it was clear that his sister was in the carriage too. What made Hou Rui even more uncomfortable was that from the angle he was standing now, he could see that the flower girl was still looking at him obsessively. Thinking of the appearance of being grabbed by the girl's hand before, Hou Rui couldn't help but feel embarrassed for a while, reached out and touched his nose, and was just about to speak, when he suddenly remembered the fifth master, he pointed back to the teahouse behind him and said, "The master is also ......"

- Well, who said that the capital is big?!

The old man threw away those painting friends and called a private room alone. After the family sat down, the old man didn't take care of Hou Rui's affairs first, but surrounded Shanniang, who hadn't seen her for a few days, and asked long and short questions, and blamed Yuan Changqing for not telling Shanniang, who had been seven months old, to go out, and then asked when the fifth wife would disperse.

That Hou Rui had long been accustomed to having Shanniang there, he was transparent in front of the master, and the master threw him aside and ignored him, he didn't care, he was only worried in his heart, I don't know if the master and Shanniang saw him "Abrupt Beauty"...... Although in fact, strictly speaking, he was abrupt by the beauty......

When the fifth master surrounded Shanniang and asked a long question, Yuan Changqing asked Hou Rui, "No class today?" ”

Hou Rui said: "Mr. put it early." ”

Yuan Changqing nodded, turned his head and listened to the fifth master and Shanniang recall the old events of the fifth wife's birth, and then turned his head and asked Hou Rui: "The girl who sells flowers, do you know you?" ”

As soon as he said this, he was talking about the father and daughter who looked like a monkey when his brother was just born, and they all stopped talking at the same time and looked back at Hou Rui.

Hou Rui hurriedly stood up, shook his hand and said, "I don't know ......."

But it turned out that, as Shanniang guessed, Hou Rui met a flower seller who was entangled by gangsters on the road after school one day. Hou Rui had a sense of justice for a while, so he stretched out his hand to take care of the idle matter. But I don't want the flower girl to sell flowers near the lecture hall, so the two can often meet. is so born and matured twice, and the flower girl is "often blackmailed by the ruffians", he helps a lot, and the two have a friendship.

"It's just a gesture," Hou Rui said, "but that girl has a lot of heart and always remembers." Every time you meet me, you have to come and say hello. Xu is fifth master and Shanniang looked at him with a strange look, Hou Rui hurriedly shook his hand and said, "I really have nothing to do with her, it's just ...... It is...... I just think she's a poor person......"

Shanniang's eyes suddenly narrowed. Her son had said the same thing. "Why is she pitiful?" She asked.

Hou Rui said: "She has no parents since she was a child, she grew up with an older brother, her brother is not in good health, and she has to take medicine all the year round, and now the family is supported by her selling flowers." A little girl's ......"

Hou Rui shook his head and sighed, but Shanniang's face was gloomy, and she frowned: "Do you believe it?!" ”

Hou Rui was surprised, "Why don't you believe it?" There's no reason for her to lie to me......" After a pause, he suddenly thought of something, and smiled at Shanniang, "Do you think she made up a story to cheat me out of money?" Rest assured, she's not like that. I offered to give her money, but she refused, and she didn't ask for a penny. ”

The fifth master raised his eyebrows and said, "It's just a long line to catch a big fish!" What's that money for you?! Maybe people are waiting for you idiot to take the bait, so that you can make a big pen! He added: "If you stay away from her in the future, that girl will not be a good thing to look at." ”

Hou Rui was taught a lesson by the fifth master and was silent for a while.

Shanniang also said: "The capital is not as good as Meishan Town, and everyone in Meishan Town knows the roots, and we will not worry about you being deceived." There are many people in Beijing, and it is difficult to know the true details of a person, so it is difficult to say that the girl is really as she said. There's nothing wrong with being careful. What's more, there is a kind of business called 'raising flowers' in Beijing, who knows if she is a 'flower' raised by someone's family? ”

After Shanniang finished speaking, Hou Rui was silent for a while, then raised his head and smiled: "It was just a meeting in Pingshui, I have nothing to do with that girl, you are too careful." ”

Shanniang felt that she also knew Hou Rui, and knew that he was a woman who didn't care about women, but now when she heard him say this, she let go of half of her heart, and told Hou Rui in detail about what she knew about "raising flowers", and told him: "The flow of people in the capital is complicated, so be careful when you are outside." ”

It was the first time that the fifth master had heard of this kind of "flower raising", so he curiously inquired with Shanniang and asked Yuan Changqing again. Yuan Changqing naturally knew more than Shanniang, so he explained it to the fifth master in detail. A few people chatted for a while about the unsightly private deeds in the capital, and the matter of bento passed like this.

However, Yuan Changqing has always been careful, and after he went back, he still asked someone to track down the details of the flower seller and the "mole man".

He still thought that Shanniang was too careful. You must know that the family of the fifth master is not very particular about food and clothing, and they don't look like a rich family at all, not to mention that Hou Rui is still a "rough man" who can't wear good clothes without good clothes. Even according to common sense, it is impossible for him to enter the eyes of those "flower keepers". What Yuan Changqing didn't expect was that the news sent by the people below confirmed Shanniang's guess. That "mole man" turned out to be a "flower farmer......

Yuan Changqing, who was suspicious, pursued for a while, and finally followed the gray lines of those grass snakes and indexed the lines to Yuan Changxing's body. I can guess with my toes that Yuan Changxing should be taking revenge on Shanniang for beating him. Now that Shanniang's month is getting older and older, it is impossible for Yuan Changqing to tell her about these troubles, so he thought of finding an opportunity to talk to Hou Rui deeply.

It's just that the plan can't keep up with the changes. Before he could find Hou Rui here, there was news from Ruyifang that because of the flower girl, the fifth old man, father and son, quarreled......
