Just as Xin Nianyan's carriage was passing through one street and was about to turn into the next street, they saw several people surrounding the three-way intersection in front of them, pointing to the front and muttering something.

Xin Nianyan's eyes moved slightly, and the corners of his mouth hooked: "Shi Wu, stop in front." ”

"Yes." The carriage pulled over, and Xin Nianyan got out of the carriage and walked towards the crowd.

Xiao Candle hurriedly followed: "Miss, you wait for the slave maid, there are many people, beware of squeezing you." ”

The master and servant walked into the center of the crowd, only to see a woman kneeling in filial piety clothes and sobbing lowly in front of them, and next to the woman lay a corpse covered with a straw mat, and in front of the woman a few words were drawn on the ground with a tree branch: "Sell yourself to bury your mother."

The number of onlookers gradually increased, but they were just watching the excitement, talking to the people around them from time to time, and no one wanted to help the woman.

Xin Nianyan stood in front of the woman, looked at her condescendingly, and asked, "What's your name?" ”

The cold and nice voice came into her ears, and the woman sobbed and raised her head.

Seeing that it was a beautiful young lady wearing a splendid dress and a good look, the woman hurriedly said: "The little woman's name is Gu Shuang, her mother died of illness at noon today, because the conditions at home are not good, she can't buy a coffin for her mother, the little girl has to sell herself, just to be able to exchange some money to bury her mother, please miss, Miss is good, buy the little girl." ”

The woman kowtowed to Xin Nianyan as she spoke.

Xin Nianyan stared at her face for a while, confirming that she was the person she was looking for.

Ancient Shuang!

That's right, in his previous life, Xin Yuanwen met a soft-looking, gentle and lovely woman outside, just like raising Zhang Yunhui at the beginning, and raised her outside.

She also learned about it by accident, but at that time she was stupid, and after learning about it, she went to tell Zhang Yunhui, Zhang Yunhui was very angry, and took advantage of Xin Yuanwen's absence to find a few men to defile and kill the woman, and also threw her to a mass grave.

When Xin Yuanwen wanted to find someone, Zhang Yunhui deliberately asked people to tell him that the woman ran away with another man, causing Xin Yuanwen to be depressed for a long time.

And that woman is the one in front of her, Gu Shuang.

Looking at Gu Shuang's pear blossoms with rain, Chu Chu's pitiful appearance is no worse than Zhang Yunhui at all, no wonder Xin Yuanwen will fall in love with her, I'm afraid that a man can't help but soften his heart when he sees it.

In the final analysis, she hurt her in her previous life, and in this life, she found her before Xin Yuanwen, so it should be regarded as a compensation for her.

Thinking of this, Xin Nianyan said to Shi Wu: "Shi Wu, you go buy a coffin, find a few more people, help her bury her mother, and then give her some silver taels." ”

"Yes." Shi Wu said yes and left quickly.

The onlookers all looked at Xin Nianyan and praised in a low voice:

"Whose lady is this, she has a really good heart."

"Looking at the noodles, I guess it's from a big family, a young lady who hasn't been out for a long time."

"I look at how I look a bit like the eldest lady who was just picked up by the Prime Minister's Mansion last year?"

"No, didn't that person who heard that he not only came back from the countryside, was vulgar and domineering, but also wanted to occupy his sister's marriage contract and rob his sister's fiancé?"

"When did you have the rumors, it's obvious that Miss Na Xin and her sister's fiancé are adulterous, and usually lonely men and widows secretly have a tryst, and they still went to the Guogong Mansion to mess around on the day of Miss Chen and Lu, and finally were seen by many people."

"I also remembered when you said this, the rumors of the two young ladies of the Xin family were popular throughout the capital during that time, but it was originally Miss Xin Er who seduced her sister's fiancé, and later it became Miss Xin's shameless desire to occupy her sister's marriage contract, tsk, I don't know which one is true."

"It doesn't matter which one is true, that Miss Xin Er is young, and she messes with men before she gets married, and it's not a good thing at first glance, snort, and I don't know if it's clean!"

"Shhhh ……

Everyone talked a lot, completely forgetting that Miss Xin was standing in front of them.

It's not the first time Xiao Candle has heard these discussions, in the first few days after the incident, she had to come out to listen to it if she had something to do, and at first she was talking about Xin Rou'er, but then it suddenly turned into scolding Xin Nianyan.

She was so angry that she went back and told Xin Nianyan, Xin Nianyan asked her to leave it alone, so she didn't pay attention anymore, but she didn't expect to hear it again today.

Originally, when she heard that Xin Nianyan had occupied her sister's marriage contract, she wanted to refute two sentences, but she didn't expect to hear that Xin Rouer was shameless, so she immediately shut up.

Miss is right, thousands of people have thousands of faces, their mouths are long on other people's faces, they want to say what others can't control, although some people's thoughts are taken away, but there are always a few clear-eyed.

If they don't refute, it's the best rebuttal, and if they say too much, there are some people who don't have three hundred taels of silver here.

Xiao Candle didn't want to speak anymore, and Xin Nianyan naturally didn't say either.

Gu Shuang, who was kneeling on the ground, heard that Xin Nianyan was willing to give him money to bury his mother, so he kowtowed vigorously to thank him.

Xin Nianyan said lightly: "You get up, wait for my maid to come to help you bury your mother, if there is anything, you can go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find me." ”

After finishing speaking, Xin Nianyan turned around and left the crowd, Gu Shuang looked at her back in a daze, biting her lip, her eyes moist.

"Miss, won't you buy her?" After leaving the crowd, the ears quieted down, and Xiao Candle couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"She'll come back to me again." Xin Nianyan said.

"Okay." Xiao Candle didn't understand why she was so confident, but she didn't ask much.

Shi Wu was not there, Xiao Candle would not drive the carriage, and in the end, Xin Nianyan walked back.

As soon as she entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, Mama Zhang from Mrs. Xin's courtyard came to stop her: "Miss, the old lady asked you to come back and want to go to the Meditation Courtyard." ”

Xin Nianyan paused, and bowed lightly: "Okay, let's go." ”

She knew why the old lady was in a hurry to call her.

Since the last time she asked for a dowry in the ancestral hall, the old lady seemed to be angry, and her attitude towards her was much lighter, and when she went to ask for peace, she didn't leave her for dinner.

Now that she suddenly wants to call her over, eighty percent learned that she went to the Guogong Mansion today, and he was afraid that she would go to the Guogong Mansion to complain.

It is indeed as Xin Nianyan thought, as soon as she went out today, Mrs. Xin got the news, she hurriedly asked people to inquire, and heard that Xin Nianyan went to the Guogong Mansion after shopping outside for a morning.

Mrs. Xin was worried about whether Xin Nianyan would go to talk about the dowry, after all, after a few days, Xin Yuanwen said that there was indeed no movement to get the dowry back, and she was afraid that Xin Nianyan would not be able to wait to go to the Guogong Mansion to complain.

No, she was worried, so she asked people to come to the door to guard, and as soon as Xin Nianyan came back, she quickly let her go to the meditation courtyard......
