Next Chapter

The March breeze carries a gentle warmth, blowing through a small courtyard in Muzhou City, where the willows are swaying with the gentle breeze.

Dayi Dynasty, Muzhou City, Baohuaxuan.

"Zhiqing is up, don't forget, today is the day for us to go back to Luanxiang Pavilion and reunite with your brother Chen and his family!" Outside the door, a middle-aged woman with her hair in a bun knocked on the girl's door

The door creaked, and the girl Du Zhiqing walked down the steps lightly. Her appearance is excellent, and above the eyes of a pair of autumn silhouettes, there are a pair of willow eyebrows, as dense and slender as distant mountains.

The cheeks, which were slightly red, were as pure and flawless as jasper, and the skin was better than snow.

She carried her bag on her shoulder, smoothed the hair between her vertebrae, walked down step by step, and muttered: "Oh, I forgot that today is the day to return to Luan Xiangge, I thought it was tomorrow." ”

As she spoke, she rolled her eyes playfully, and grabbed her mother's hand with a bit of flattery, "Daddy, you and your brother and brother should go first, today I want to buy peach blossom cake at the market, I can't buy it when it's late, and I'll look for you in Luanxiang Pavilion in a while!"

"Why do you have so many things to do with this girl, forget it, if you want to buy it, go quickly!" Mother Xiahou Muqing knew her eccentric temperament, but she didn't embarrass her, "Remember to go back to Luanxiang Pavilion quickly after buying peach blossom cakes, your brother Chen is still waiting to meet you." ”

"Well, good!" Du Zhiqing nodded, "I'm going!" ”

As soon as she said that, she ran out of the courtyard of Baohuaxuan like a first-class cigarette, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"Peach Blossom Cake, Peach Blossom Cake, Delicious Peach Blossom Cake!"

Today, there is a market in the city, and all kinds of juggling and selling sounds are endless, and passers-by come and go.

Du Zhiqing happily ran over, "Boss, I want to bring three catties of peach blossom cake and wrap it up for me!" ”

"All right, girl!" The peddler responded and weighed the peach blossom cake for Du Zhiqing.

"Kind-hearted people, give me some silver taels, my broken bones are about to starve to death on the streets!"

While the vendor was weighing the peach blossom cake, Du Zhiqing's attention was attracted by the sound of a begging.

Looking back, I saw a white-haired old man in a rag shirt not far away, the old man had broken a foot, kneeling on the ground and begging incessantly.

"Oh, it's really pitiful, it's not easy to break your leg at such an old age, you should give money!"

"It's all our money, I hope we can do something for you!"

His begging and mourning, and his pitiful appearance, could not help but attract countless sympathetic glances, and passers-by also threw their silver coins and tickets into the bowl in front of him.

"Thank you, thank you!" The old man kept kowtowing again.

But at the moment when no one saw it, the corners of his mouth showed a look of disdain and pride, but he quickly disappeared, and when he faced passers-by, he changed into that pitiful look.

All this was in the eyes of Du Zhiqing not far away, she was born in the martial arts rivers and lakes, and these tricks will naturally be seen through at a glance. He was a sick old man, and his haggard face and beard were easy to come out.

His legs and feet are also sound, but the half of his legs are long in the heavy clothes and trousers, and he kneels on the ground, so others naturally can't see it.

She was born with justice in her heart, how could she sit idly by and watch such a liar come to disturb the peace and order of this peaceful Muzhou City?

She didn't care about any peach blossom cake, and she didn't care about hurrying back to Luanxiang Pavilion, she was full of anger, rushed forward in three or two steps, and grabbed the beggar up.

"Ahh The beggar screamed.

Du Du Zhiqing glared at the beggar fiercely, and sneered: "Liar, what are you pretending, your little trick can deceive others, but you can't deceive me!" ”

After she said that, she turned her head and said loudly to passers-by: "Everyone, don't be deceived by this liar, he is not an old man at all, nor is he a disabled person with a broken leg. ”

"These are all his tricks, all of this is what he pretended to deceive everyone's sympathy, don't give money to this liar!"
