Chapter 218: Preserved Egg and Lean Pork Porridge (3)
The little ladies who are locked up here don't know why they were brought here for no reason.
Not far away, another little lady in a blue dress answered: "I just remember that I went out to play with my family on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, bought delicious silver candy, and bought a beautiful mask to play with, and I didn't remember anything when I walked!" β
Although it is really scary to be locked up here, after someone speaks, it is probably the sound that can dispel people's panic, and as soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted a lot of response.
"I also came out to play in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I don't remember it when I walked," and the little lady answered, "I'll be here when I wake up, and I'll see everyone!" β
Most of the little ladies here were brought here during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but not everyone is like this.
In response, someone's voice rang out.
"I ...... I'm not! β
The voice was a little weak, and many of the little ladies who spoke out turned their heads to look at the person who made the sound.
Ever since they were caught, they have not taken care of them except to eat and drink and Lazar. I don't know how many days I haven't washed, and naturally my body is dirty and messy.
The little lady who spoke up looked up at everyone, but it was more dirty than most of the little ladies, and even stained with a lot of mud, her face was pale, and the look on her face was more than the dazed eyes of everyone, but it was full of despair.
"I was caught earlier than you," the little lady grinned, and gasped as if she had been wounded by this action, "and ...... I also tried to run over! β
There is more than one like her, and the little lady next to her who also has a wound on her face.
"The Zhenggou Oil Mill in the east of the city is my family," the little lady smiled bitterly when she said this, looked at the little lady who was also injured next to her, and said, "This is the Chang Niang of Chang Ji Rice Shop!" β
Although Zhenggou Oil Mill and Changji Rice Shop are not the biggest industries in Chang'an City, they always have to buy oil and rice for daily eating and drinking, and these two shops have been open for many years, and there are naturally many people who know about them.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, a little lady who was arrested immediately said: "I came to your house to buy oil for my aunt!" β
Someone on the side immediately answered: "I have bought rice from Changji Rice Shop for many years at home!" β
"My family's rice is also yours!" Another little lady said.
"And my family, my family also bought oil!"
β¦β¦
Your answer should be gratifying, but the little ladies really can't laugh!
Looking at the dimly lit dark room, thinking of the fierce and vicious appearance of the person who came to deliver the food, a sense of confusion came to my heart.
After listening to what the Chen family lady and the Chang family lady said, this kind of blankness completely turned into despair and fear.
Compared with these little ladies who were taken captive at the Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival, the ladies of the Chen family and the ladies of the Chang family were soberly abducted here.
One is a destined person who picks up handkerchiefs, and the other is a hero who saves beauty, but his family background is like carved out of a mold, and things have developed into elopement in the end.
"I packed the gold and silver like the usual lady, and sent the personal maidservant, with the ...... The demon in human skin has eloped! When the lady of the Chen family said this, she couldn't help but cry bitterly, "And then ...... Then the demon took us to the wicked people! β
No matter how stupid they are, when they saw the fierce and vicious big man, the two of them also noticed that something was wrong, what did they do when they eloped and saw so many big men?
"We were gagged, blindfolded, and thrown here with our hands and feet tied!" The lady of the Chen family said, "We are very scared, so we naturally want to escape." β
"Once, when we heard that the guards outside were silent, we thought that no one was there, so we thought about opening the door, but the wicked people saw it and beat it!" When the lady of the Chen family said this, she couldn't help but choke again, "It's when you fight, if those people weren't for those old men, they would have sold us to Goolan Courtyard to make a sum of money and then sent them over!" β
As soon as these words came out, the dark room fell silent, and after a while, sobs began one after another.
It is naturally fortunate not to be sold to Goolan Courtyard, but the meaning of those villains' words is that no matter how stupid they are, they can hear it.
Who are the "old men" and what is this for?
The lady of the Chen family who spoke was even more annoyed with the lady of the Chang family: thinking about a month ago, when she was still looking forward to the beautiful stories in the book, when it really happened to her, she found out what kind of handsome Langjun was, and it was clearly a demon in human skin.
"If you think about it, it's not a good story that Sima Xiang eloped like Zhuo Wenjun! Zhuo Wenjun is a good daughter, and he has been reduced to the point of selling wine with him! is clearly enduring hardship, where does the good thing come from? When the Chen family lady said this, her tears couldn't stop falling, "I don't know if I can see Daddy and Auntie, I miss my Daddy and Auntie!" β
The lady of the Chang family also began to bow her head and weep: "I still have a family business, and the other party is not easy to get along with, and now I am afraid that my father and aunt will be more worried......
β¦β¦
The lady of the Chang family is worried!
In the morning, not long after the people in Dali Temple left, the people of the Chang family came to Dali Temple with a pair of mother and son.
Because Lin Fei, Liu Yuan, Wei Fu and others were not there, naturally Bai Zhu, the only one who stayed in Dali Temple, came forward.
This time, the Chang family came to ask about the eucalyptus.
Bai Zhu naturally knew what to say and what not to say, so he smiled and exchanged pleasantries with a few people, and he didn't reveal anything about eucalyptus.
This eucalyptus was transferred from Jingzhao Mansion to Dali Temple, and the disappearance of the little ladies had already spread in the city, and the Chang family naturally knew that the villains were extraordinary, and at this time, they would not disturb the officials of Dali Temple for no reason.
I had to come this time, but I was so entangled by that mother and son.
Bai Zhu had just said a few words to the mother and son, and the old lady sat on the ground with a "poof" and began to wipe her tears, howling dryly.
The movement was so loud that Tang Yuan and Ah Bing couldn't help but run to see it for a while, and when they came back, they said to Wen Mingtang: "When I went there, I saw the old lady sitting on the ground and sprinkling, while spilling the earth-shattering sound, while those eyes were rolling around, looking like a shrewd person who would come to things!" β
"Originally, I thought she was worried about Chang Xiaoniang, but what happened to you?" When Tang Yuan said this to Wen Mingtang, his eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief, "She just wants to blackmail the Chang family's money!" β
Wen Mingtang, who was chopping vegetables, took a moment in his hand and looked at the rice balls puzzled: "What do you say?" How did she blackmail the Chang family's money? β
Tang Yuan said: "She said that her son was the husband of Chang Xiaoniang's betrothed. β
Betrothed husband! Thinking of Chang Xiaoniang's elopement with someone, although she suffered hardship, this move was inappropriate.
Wen Mingtang thought about it and was noncommittal.
Wen Mingtang's reaction was also expected by Tang Yuan, and Tang Yuan said: "Of course it's not right for Chang Xiaoniang to elope with someone, this hardship is also self-inflicted, but there is another hidden truth in this so-called fiancΓ©!" β
