Chapter 33: The Beggar

At this time, the sun was setting, and the afterglow of the setting sun was reflected in the house through the hanging window. Mo Yunxi behind the screen sighed, looking very lost.

"Why is it a traveling merchant?" She frowned and muttered.

"Miss Mo San, you have done a good deed!" A broken cry came from outside the side door. Mo Yunxi was startled, and carefully distinguished this voice, although it was full of energy, it was a woman's voice. In the Mo family, who else dares to call himself like this except his father.

Her mind couldn't turn for a while, but her maid Danzhu understood. Danzhu's eyes widened, opened his mouth slightly, and reminded softly: "It's Wei ......"

Mo Yunxi suddenly realized, and before he had time to panic, Mrs. Wei had already taken Mo Yunxiao's hand and walked in quickly from the side door. Mo Yunxi was a thief, and hurriedly stood up, a little at a loss.

Mrs. Wei's eyes were blazing, and she pointed at her with her fingers and said, "Okay, Miss Mosan, how can you be so bold and pretend to be your female brother to come here to meet the man!" ”

Danzhu was a little scared, and hurriedly explained: "Mrs. Wei is angry, my girl was curious, and wanted to see whose son's son can overwhelm the crowd and be so good at tea art." Who would have thought that the eldest girl had not yet arrived when we came, and that boy mistook my girl for a big girl. ”

Mrs. Wei's sharp light shot at her, and she sneered: "Don't you have a long mouth?" Won't explain to others, or won't want to explain to others? ”

"This ...... This ......" Danzhu was embarrassed for a while, but he was flustered, and he didn't know what to do, his apricot face turned red, and he had to pull Mo Yunxi's skirt in a hurry.

Mo Yunxi has been arrogant since he was a child. She is Mo Chenglin's second favored daughter, and because of her noble mother, she has always been arrogant.

At this time, although she was also a little flustered, she thought that this was in her own home, and even if Mrs. Wei had a respected status, she could not meddle in other people's housework, so she was also bold, waved her hand, and said, "What's the matter!" I just want to come and see, looking for that son for my brother. Anyway, no one knows, so what are you afraid of? ”

Mrs. Wei gritted her teeth and sneered, and said, "Since the third girl is interested, let Helu give this person to you!" As she spoke, she turned back to Mo Yunxiao behind her and said, "Helu, let's not end this ridiculous family business!" ”

Mo Yunxi was taken aback, glared at him and said, "I don't want that wandering merchant!" ”

"Wandering merchants?" Mrs. Wei frowned, and asked again, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Mo Yunxi also sneered and said: "Originally, I thought that the kung fu of ordering tea was so good, it should be an official eunuch, and it must be a rich and noble family." But who would have thought that kid was just a traveling businessman, who traveled all year round, and he couldn't earn a few coppers. So I sent him away. Hum! It is really wishful thinking to want to join our Mo family from such a background. ”

Mrs. Wei pondered for a moment, then suddenly showed a smile, turned her head to Mo Yunxiao and said, "Helu, what do you think?" ”

Mo Yunxiao's face was not shocked, and he only said lightly: "Since you are gone, let him go." ”

Mrs. Wei was slightly stunned and didn't speak. Mo Yunxi rejoiced. She disagreed with her daughter-in-law, for fear that Mo Yunxiao would sue her in front of her father. can see Mo Yunxiao's expression, it seems to be indifferent, a catastrophe disappeared invisibly, how can she not be happy?

So she hurriedly stepped forward, took Mo Yunxiao's hand, and said coquettishly: "Good my brother, brother, I don't have the intention to ruin your family, it's just that this person is cold, where can I enter the door of our Mo family." Brother, you should be considerate. ”

Mo Yunxiao smiled faintly and said, "Naturally." ”

Mo Yunxi immediately clapped his hands and applauded: "Then Daddy's side is also annoying the female brother to help me cover up." That's all for us. Danzhu, let's go. ”

A big stone in Mo Yunxi's heart fell to the ground, so he greeted Danzhu without distraction and went straight to the direction of the main entrance.

Mrs. Wei's eyes were about to burst into flames. She looked at the depressed Mo Yunxiao and complained: "Helu! What's wrong with you! Can't you see that your daughter is planning to be the first to get there? ”

Mo Yunxiao still smiled and said, "If she likes it, let it be given to her." Why do we have to fight? ”

Mrs. Wei was stunned for a long time, and muttered, "Are you still the Helu I knew before?" When did you become so weak and deceitful! ”

Mo Yunxiao paced up and said, "I saw a man die in front of me, and I couldn't save him; My valet was betrayed, and I could not save her; Even my own husband is not up to me. Sister, I fell into the water and forgot the tea prescription of our tea house, so I can't fight them. ”

When she said this last sentence, she turned around suddenly, and Mrs. Wei couldn't help but tremble slightly when she saw that her face was already full of tears.

"Helu, are you just throwing in the towel?" Mrs. Wei asked.

Mo Yunxiao shook her head and said with a wry smile: "If you don't admit defeat, what?" ”

Mrs. Wei's eyes suddenly changed from concern to stern, and she said, "But you are not a person who will admit defeat. The Helu I like is the hero whose bones are harder than iron and whose ambitions are higher than the sky, and he is by no means a complaining girl who cries all day long! Helu, if you still recognize me as a friend, you should cheer up and get back what you lost! ”

Mo Yunxiao sat on the stool that Mo Yunxi was sitting on just now, and said with a sad smile: "Sister, the Helu you know is dead. ”

Mrs. Wei froze. She couldn't believe what was happening in front of her, but she wasn't in a dream. Mo Yunxiao in front of her was depressed and full of tears, who was still the "female Yama" who was once high-spirited and frightened the children in the market?

At this moment, there were tears in her eyes. Through her tearful eyes, Mo Yunxiao became so strange in her eyes, as if she had never really known her.

Mrs. Wei sighed and said, "That's it, I won't care about your affairs in the future." Helu, I am thinking of you and me, I only hope that you will not regret the decision you made today. She shook off her cloak and walked away.

Caiyi slowly came in through the side door, only to see Mo Yunxiao sitting on a stool alone, in a daze.

Besides, Mo Yunxi had caused such a disaster, and he didn't dare to go back to Zhilanju immediately, so he took Danzhu to go shopping.

Mo Yunxi was born beautifully, and Danzhu also had a rare appearance. This master and servant walking on West Street is also quite eye-catching. Mo Yunxi likes this feeling of being attracted by people. Because at this moment, she can temporarily step out of the shadow of the eldest brother and fantasize about herself as the bright moon held up by the stars, which is so bright and beautiful.

"Girl, our chess game today is really dangerous." Danzhu was a little afraid, and hurriedly wiped the sweat from the corners of her forehead with a handkerchief: "If it weren't for the eldest girl, she wouldn't care, I'm afraid it would be a trouble." ”

"Well, too." Mo Yunxi pouted and said, "I wanted to catch a golden beetle son-in-law in front of the eldest brother, but who would have thought that kid would have such a humble background." Alas, it's really not worth the risk. ”

She thought about it again and said, "But the eldest brother she seems to have changed sex, and she is not as aggressive as before." ”

Danzhu covered her mouth and smiled, and said: "This is what she retreats from knowing the difficulty, and she is willing to lose the gamble!" ”

"Hah! Then won't I have to be afraid of her in the future? Mo Yunxi smelled a burst of flowers, and couldn't help but stop and take a look, it turned out to be a herb stall, selling all kinds of spices and sachets.

Mo Yunxi was in a good mood, so he took Danzhu's hand and said, "Come and see!" Two women came to the stall and took a closer look at the goods.

The shopkeeper saw that they were dressed well, so he also laughed and said, "It is an honor for the lady to patronize them." I don't know if the lady likes flowers or grass on weekdays? ”

"Anything goes." Mo Yunxi picked up a small sachet that was quite delicately made, and said to Danzhu: "Look at this, the flowers are embroidered exquisitely. Then he leaned close to his nose and sniffed it, and praised: "The taste is also strong, but it is not overbearing, like a gardenia." ”

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Yes, yes, it's Gardenia's." ”

"Danzhu, what do you think?" Mo Yunxi asked Danzhu with a smile. Danzhu also smiled, and before he could answer, he suddenly heard a howl: "Lady help!" ”

Mo Yunxi and Danzhu were shocked, and when they looked back, they saw a rough-dressed man about thirty years old holding a baby in his arms, suddenly kneeling in front of them and crying.

The two women had never seen such a scene, and they couldn't help but take two steps back, not even daring to speak.

"The little one is abrupt, but the little one recognizes you as the third girl of the Ming Building!" The man raised his head and said, "The little one used to work as a day laborer in the Ming Building. The three girls may not recognize the little ones, but the little ones still remember the three girls. ”

After hearing this, the second daughter gradually settled down. Mo Yunxi asked, "Then what are you doing?" ”

The man cried: "Ask the third girl to be gracious, and then take the small one to work in the tea building." The little hometown was plagued by locusts, and the family starved to death, and the little one remembered the grace of the Mo family in Minglou, and only took this daughter to beg all the way, hoping that the three girls would beg for mercy and take them in. ”

"Huh? This ......" Mo Yunxi was a little embarrassed, but she looked around, and there were many passers-by around her. The owner of the vanilla stall wanted to drive the man away, but seeing that he was pitiful, and the passers-by around him were talking about it, he was afraid that he would be jealous of others, so he had to stop talking.

Mo Yunxi said: "You are very pitiful, but we also look at talent in collecting miscellaneous labor, not everyone collects it." Besides, I don't have financial power, so I'm afraid I can't take you in without permission. ”

The man hurriedly said, "The little ones don't want to have a lot of money every month, but they just want to have a few nests to eat every day." It's not a pity for a little cheap life to die, but this poor baby is...... Since the girl is not in charge of wealth, the little one can follow the girl before and after the saddle and become a small servant. ”

At this time, many people around were discussing: "The Minglou family has a big business, so it gives people a way to live." "Yes, since it is the pearl of the treasurer of the great treasurer, it will not be in the way to collect one or two servants......

This discussion came together, and Mo Yunxi had no idea. Danzhu rolled her eyes and whispered to her: "Girl, you might as well accept this person, and you will always need it to deal with the eldest girl and the mother and daughter in the second room in the future." ”

"But ......" Mo Yunxi frowned and said, "He is a big man, what kind of system has he become after following us." ”

"It's easy to do." Danzhu smiled: "Let's give him to Dalang." These days, the big girl has fallen out of favor, if the girl can get into a little filial piety, maybe she will ......"

Danzhu didn't finish his words, but Mo Yunxi should understand even if he is stupid. She smiled and said, "That's right! ”
