"My dad is a showman, but unfortunately he hasn't been admitted to the lifter,"

"Xiucai? Do you want to sell flowers? ”

"His leg was broken by bad people, his stepmother would plant flowers, and the family would depend on her to feed."

"She's not good to you?"

The little girl shook her head and nodded again, and Qiao Mai continued to ask, "Do you have any younger siblings?"

"I have a younger brother who was born to my stepmother."

It's no wonder that the family pointed to the stepmother for dinner, no matter how wronged the daughter was, he, the father, couldn't say anything, and he was still a cripple.

Qiao Mai sighed, "If I buy you, and I will be my maid in the future, serve me every day, and never have to sell flowers again, are you willing?"

The little girl raised her head and looked at her seriously, "Can you eat enough?" ”

"I have three meals a day, and I don't have to work at night,"

The little girl was eating the bun and shed tears at the same time.

"But what about my father, although he has a broken leg now, he used to be good to me."

"If you continue to stay in that home, your father is not dead, you will die first, you can't even save yourself, how can you keep your father?"

"Madame, you are a good man, and if that is the case, then I am willing to sell myself to you."

Qiao Mai hooked her lips and laughed, This little girl was interesting, so she took her back to Jixiangyuan, and asked the butler to be called.

"Lao Zhang, take her back home, buy her with her family for fifty taels of silver, and hand her over to Mama Jin when she comes back, let her help train for a month, and then send her to Yuexian Pavilion."

"Yes, master!"

Steward Zhang took the little girl away, how long has it been in the master's courtyard and no one has gone in to wait, it is rare for the heroine to accept a subordinate, although it is a little smaller, but the loyal subordinate has to be cultivated from an early age.

In the evening, Steward Zhang returned, he reported to Qiao Mai, and handed over the deed of sale.

"Master, the housewife of that family is so angry, as soon as she heard that I was going to buy a little girl, the lion opened his mouth and asked for a thousand taels of silver."

"How dare you ask for it, she's not afraid of dying." Qiao Mai said leisurely.

"When the subordinates heard this, they turned around and left, and she hurriedly shouted to her subordinates, and finally cut fifty taels, she was not happy."

"Does her man know about this?"

"I don't know, call us outside."

"Handed over to Mama Jin?"

"Yes."

"You've worked hard, go and rest."

After a while, the Yuan family got up and came back, "Lady, are you tired today?" ”

"Haha, you got it?"

The two sat at the kang table, and after a while, the next person brought the food, and after setting it up, they both retreated.

"The emperor called his husband into the palace, and he didn't embarrass me, but just told me about it. The lady kicked well, it's good to kick him to death, let this dog thing live one more day, and the woman in the capital will suffer one more day, you don't know how bad this guy's reputation is. ”

Qiao Mai ate without raising his head.

"The emperor knows what kind of virtue his grandson is, he just supervises the courtiers, but his own is releasing water, this dog emperor, I'll give him some color one day when he's in a hurry."

The Yuan family's hands trembled, has the lady been so harmful? Even the emperor can move at will?

Seeing that he was stunned, Qiao Mai snorted coldly, "Do you want to be the emperor?" ”

Yuan Jiaqi was so frightened that he quickly shook his head, "There is no one in this world who doesn't want to be an emperor, but not everyone can sit in this position, there is no family background, there are no generals, and going up is a dead word." ”

"I didn't expect you to see it quite clearly, this time it's a warning to their royal family, and if there is another time, it won't be a matter of broken ribs."

"It's time for this gang of gentlemen in the capital to be ruthless, relying on money to oppress the people, and the people who have suffered don't dare to snort, knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs."

"Go back and turn over the investigation of the capital, write a list and give it to me."

"Oh, lady, what, give your husband 100,000 taels of silver?"

"Another disaster in the south?"

"Yes, there are several places where there is heavy rain, if the relief is not timely, maybe there will be a plague, alas~"

"Do you want food?"

"If the lady is sure to make a move, the more the merrier."

After the couple had eaten, Qiao Mai gave him a hundred thousand taels of silver tickets, and then pulled him to the door of the house.

With a wave of her hand, a hill-high grain appeared in the courtyard out of thin air, bags after bags, each bag of a hundred catties.

"Ming'er, you ask someone to count it, if it's not enough, I'll give it to you."

The Yuan family swallowed, "It should be enough, these are hundreds of thousands of catties,"

"Well, how to round these grains, you can figure it out yourself."

"I have already applied to the emperor to go to disaster relief, and I am afraid that I will leave the capital for a month or two."

"With me at home, you go out with winter dates and dragon blood, the horses can swim, and they will protect you,"

"Got it."

In this way, Yuan Jiaqi went to court early the next morning, and after he came back, he began to send people to count the grain, and pulled it away one by one.

After a whole day, he couldn't even bother talking to Qiao Mai at night, and he fell asleep when he was tired.

Looking at his sleeping face, Qiao Mai sighed softly, reached out and tapped his ear lightly, hitting his divine sense.

He and Chuan'er are both very smart people, but no matter how smart they are, they don't have the ability to guard against others.

She could only do this, and if there was anything unusual she could immediately appear in front of him.

As his wife, he packed some bags for him at night, and the next day, Yuan Jiaqi left the capital with a large group of people.

Thinking that my husband is going to be away for a month or two, this is just the right time to retreat and improve my cultivation.

I was about to insert the door and retreat, and someone came to report.

"Princess, a couple outside begged to see, said yes, said yes,"

"Say!"

"I said I came to recognize my relatives."

"Confession?"

"They came to recognize the county lord's relatives, and they said that they were the county lord's biological parents."

Qiao Mai was stunned for a moment, and suddenly hooked her lips and smiled, it was ridiculous that someone actually recognized her own daughter.

Her face was as cold as ice, and she came to the antechamber with a sense of anger, and saw a couple about her age.

The couple who were sitting quickly stood up and saluted her with some restraint.

"I've seen the princess."

"Well, don't be in a hurry to recognize your relatives first, first tell me who you are and where you live?"

"We now live in the capital, the villain's surname is Yu, this is my wife Yu, and my family has been in business for generations."

"Where did you lose your child?"

"No, it's not lost, it's the woman who was chased and killed at the time, and as a last resort, I can only put the child at the door of a family in Tianshui Town, and then leave in a hurry."

"Let's be more careful, what weather was it at that time, how old was she when you lost the child, what kind of small quilt was wrapped at that time, and what kind of clothes were you wearing?"

"The woman lost her memory after escaping death, and she only remembers the approximately, but I really don't remember the specifics."

"Where did you hear that this princess's daughter was brought here?"

"After my lady remembered this incident, we looked for it in Tianshui Town, it was the local people who said it, and I heard that your family arrived in the capital, so I found it rudely."

"Are you sure my daughter is yours?"

"I don't confirm it, but with this clue, I want to come over to confirm it, and ask the princess to fulfill the wish of our couple."

"Go back, she's not your child."

"Princess! Please do it! ”

The couple immediately knelt in front of her, Qiao Mai watched the two of them act, presumably the person behind them must have checked, almost seamlessly.

Qiao Mai buttoned his nails and nodded at the people who were waiting.

The servant trotted away, and not long after, Ling'er came to the front hall, and she looked at the strange couple in the living room.

"Mother, are they?"

"I've seen the county lord!"

"They said you were their daughter, so I called you over, not to mention, you look a little bit like that, it really bothered the people behind you."

The couple pretended not to understand when they heard this, "Princess, the county lord really looks like us." ”
