Chapter 103: Redemption
Layue hurriedly shut up, whatever he asked, as long as he didn't name and call himself, he pretended to be a dumb, deaf and blind person.
"Moon Niang!" Zhicheng was angry, and his voice became unkind again, "I'm discussing with you how to save my mother!" Why don't you look worried, your mother is no matter how you are, it's also a mother! ”
"I can't help it." Layue threw out a sentence coldly, and the city of fear did not give up to entangle herself, Layue sighed, "After such an incident, who can settle down and think of a way, and then talk about it when you go back, they are for money and not for the sake of killing people for fun, let's go back and prepare the silver to redeem people." ”
Juan Niang muttered in a painful voice, "They want ten thousand taels of silver...... How can there be ......?"
Before she could finish speaking, the city had already shouted, "When is this going on, and you still say that these are useless!" Isn't my mother's life as good as 10,000 taels of silver? If I don't care about my mother, what do you want the people of Yecheng to say about me? What do you make people in the literati circle of my former classmates think of me! ”
Having said this, Layue simply took the opportunity to ask the doubts in her heart, "Is the Prime Minister's family very poor?" When he is a court, how did he raise a daughter who lost money, it was either blackmail or deduction, and he would rather have an accident with his elders than pay for redemption, I was very curious. ”
She wanted to take the opportunity to find out the reason behind Juanniang's strange money-greedy character, but she didn't expect the city to be protected first.
Without waiting for Juan Niang to answer, Zhicheng had already blushed first, and flicked his sleeves irritably, "Okay, okay, don't make any noise, let's go back." ”
That's what I interrupted again. La Yue frowned and was silent, but the doubts in her heart were getting deeper and deeper, why were the two of them so taboo to ask about the prime minister? It's not a shame to see the light.
When she returned to the house, Juan Niang couldn't help it with a stomachache, and the girls undressed and saw that they were red, so they cried and went to the city to say, so in the middle of the night, they jumped to find a doctor to see a doctor.
Layue said that she was tired and went back to her yard to rest. Zhicheng is worried about his mother in his heart, and he is worried about the child in Juanniang's belly, he has had his mother in charge of the family since he was a child, and he has never been so clueless, tired and hopes that someone will help him, Yueniang must have this ability, but seeing Yueniang's vice work does not do her own high, and even looks a little like a joke and is upset.
So I had to support everything myself, tossing until dawn and waiting for Juan Niang to stabilize, there were already two big blisters on the mouth of the city, and the whole person was haggard like a ghost crawling out of hell, how could there be half a point of the elegant and gentle demeanor of the past.
Early the next morning, the city really couldn't hold on, and he fainted in front of the housekeeper with exhaustion, and he fainted and originally talked to Layue about the ransom of his mother.
Layue thought about it, took Xiaodouzi and threw it to the housekeeper with a sentence of "go to the shop and have a look" and disappeared, purely because she didn't want to face those people and things at home.
Xiaodouzi had four garlands of the two children on his arms, and the chrysanthemums and maple leaves were already wilting, Layue sighed and said, "It's a pity that I don't even know what they are called, but I know a way to make dried flowers into this flower, let's hang it in the shop and keep a thought." ”
Xiaodouzi cried again, Layue felt strange in her heart, no matter how kind she was, she and those two children were only one-sided, did Xiaodouzi cry like this?
"Little Bean, do you know them? If we know each other, tell me their names, and we will go back and ask a master to read a few volumes of sutras to these two children, and they will have a good family in the next life. ”
"Nope." Xiaodouzi shook his head and wiped his tears, choked up and said, "Xiaodouzi just thought that when I was a child, I also sold garlands with my sister like this, and my sister was more skillful than me, that is, when I was as old as them, there was a ...... A dog from a rich lady came after us...... My sister pushed me away and she ...... She...... She was bitten alive by a dog...... Woowoo woo ......"
It's another living human tragedy, and I've heard too much of this kind of thing since I was a child.
"Little beans. Don't cry," Layue thought for a while and said, "You see, the poor will be bullied by many people, so we must not be poor, you know?" ”
"But, young lady, I'm a minion, what can I do not be poor? A monthly amount of money for a month. ”
"That was before, now that you have followed me, and you are so skillful, as long as you are willing to follow me, I will definitely help you live a personal life."
As he spoke, he had already arrived at the door of Xing Ji Rouge.
"Bang!" A woman crashed into a pillar at Layue's feet, looked back and ran away in a hurry. Mama Chang and Shopkeeper Gao stood at the door and looked at each other with puzzled expressions, and when they saw the young lady coming, they hurriedly greeted them.
"Who's that guy? Why the panic? Layue sat down to eat tea in the backyard, first asked the shopkeeper Gao to take Xiaodouzi to make the four garlands dry and then hang them in the store, and then took the tea handed by Mama Chang and took a sip and asked her.
Chang Mama shook her head, "I don't know, this has been here for three or four days in a row, every time the store looks and asks to take out a bunch of rouge and don't buy it, one will say that it is used by the old lady at home, pick a little bit of rouge that shows people's spirit, and then say that it is actually bought for the young lady at home, the young lady does not like bright colors, and the elegant ones come to see a few kinds, and then ask this rouge is now guaranteed quality?" Chang Mama said dissatisfiedly, "The old slave told her that the batch of rouge in the store with problems has long been recycled and discontinued, if you are not at ease, or you will take a look at other people's houses first, and she will not leave after listening." ”
Layue smiled when she heard this, "Don't you want to come to receive you every time?" ”
Mama Chang was stunned for a moment, and then she thought about it seriously and said with a look of surprise, "When the young lady said this, it seems to be true, every time this person really comes to ask me directly." ”
"Ninety percent of them are her people." La Yue smiled and blew the tea leaves in the bowl in her hand, "I didn't expect the old lady of the Lu family to be so cautious, the next time she comes back, you will pretend that life is not good and you are very harsh, and see what further actions will be made." ”
Although I don't know what the young lady means by this arrangement, but every time the young lady can expect anything, it is absolutely right to listen to her, so Chang Mama nodded and asked about the family again.
Layue sighed and sneered and told what happened yesterday, then thought about it, put down the bowl, and said to Mama Chang, "You go and call the high shopkeeper in, I have something to explain." ”
After a while, the shopkeeper Gao came in, and Layue saw that there was no one left and right, so he said in a low voice, "Shopkeeper Gao, last time I asked you to find two very suitable people, and then stopped the business in the store, including the fruit shop and the other end of Wei County, and quietly melted our silver, including the working capital, into stone, how much did you get?" ”
"Back to the young lady, it has been more than two months one after another, and it has been melted."
"Are you sure you're the only one in the store who knows about this?" Seeing that the shopkeeper Gao was slightly dissatisfied, Layue explained to him with a smile, "Don't be too careful, Mama, I absolutely trust, but Mama She is sometimes a little bit Mr. Dongguo's style, and her heart is too soft-hearted, so she has to hide it from her, but if you know, it's nothing." ”
