Chapter 29: Picking Up a Teenager
The aunt said angrily: "Look at what you said. But I'll be honest with you, this kid is sick. I heard that it was brought out of the mother's womb that there was a heart problem, and I couldn't do heavy work, and I couldn't be stimulated too much. ”
She sighed again, "Originally, this child could have escaped, but he was worried about his parents' ashes, and he was busy collecting his parents' ashes so he couldn't escape in time." ”
Xia Qingli didn't care about this child's heart problem, and it could be cured with her wood-based ability. What she cared about was whether this kid was really good at finding out the news.
She is very short of subordinates who are good at finding out news, usually relying on Ruyi and Jixiang to find out the news is not enough, and she doesn't want to rely on Gu Jinghan, which is not a good thing for her.
After some consideration, she decided to give it a try. If this young man is not good at finding out the news, she can cultivate it.
"Stop." She walked over.
"Boss, here's a good-looking chick." A subordinate said with a hippie smile: "It's so good-looking, this kind of girl is very easy to sell." ”
"Bang"!
Xia Qingli kicked him out with a kick, and she said coldly: "If I hear another word that I shouldn't hear, I don't mind sending you on the road." ”
This scene made the onlookers look at her in shock, and they really couldn't see that this girl had such good skills, and she was so cruel, she dared to offend the person who put the money.
The young man raised his bloodstained face and looked at Xia Qingli in a daze, is this the fairy who came down from above the nine heavens to save him? Will he survive?
He wants to live!
The scar man known as the boss looked at Xia Qingli wrongly, and he raised his hand to stop his subordinates: "You want to save this kid?" ”
Xia Qingli hummed: "I understand the rules of your business, and I won't miss you a copper plate for the silver that should be given." ”
The boss touched his chin: "Okay, a thousand taels of silver, I'll let this kid go." ”
The onlookers gasped, a thousand taels of silver?! Who can get such a huge sum of money.
Xia Qingli is not surprised that this person will sit on the ground and start the price, everyone who does this business is like this, and the price will be adjusted according to different people. And those who can do this line of work have a very strong backer behind them.
"I think I'd better do it." Before the words fell, she had already kicked the boss out of the air.
Immediately after, she kicked over a few of her men who had not yet reacted.
"It's good now." She clapped her hands, glanced at the young man who was still lying on the ground, and said in a faint voice: "Get up by yourself, I don't raise wasters." ”
The young man hurriedly got up, stood behind Xia Qingli in a proper manner, and peeked at her from time to time, the fairy is so powerful.
"Slut!" The boss was furious, and rushed towards Xia Qingli with his subordinates: "Do you know who the master behind me is?" If you dare to do this to me, I have to sell you to Hualou today...... Yes! ”
Xia Qingli appeared in front of him very quickly, pinched his neck with one hand, and pressed him to the ground.
"Bang"!
The ground cracked like a spider's web.
Her eyes were fierce: "Where are you going to sell me?" ”
The boss felt her killing intent, and couldn't help but tremble, this woman really wanted to kill him!
"Save the Boss!" Several of his men rushed over.
Xia Qingli grabbed the boss as a weapon, smashed these subordinates, and then smashed the boss to the ground: "Now, will you talk well?" ”
"I have to warn you, I'm not very patient, if you say a wrong word, don't blame me."
The boss swallowed his saliva: "You, aren't you afraid that my master will settle accounts with you?" ”
Xia Qingli snorted lightly: "Are you sure that your master dares to trouble me?" Are you sure I'm an ordinary person? ”
The boss is not sure if Xia Qingli is an ordinary person, but if he can dress up like this, he can tell at a glance that he is not an ordinary person. But no one in the big family is so cruel, and no one knows martial arts.
"You...... Yes! ”
Xia Qingli didn't want to talk nonsense anymore, so she kept pinching his neck hard.
"One hundred taels! One hundred taels! The boss roared and said, "You only need to give a hundred taels to take this kid away." ”
Xia Qingli let go of his hand and said lightly: "I want a hundred taels to Xia's house, and I will say that the eldest lady will give it." ”
When the boss heard about the Xia family, he was extremely glad that he didn't really make a big deal about it. The Xia family is a servant of the Ministry of Rites, and it is not something they can easily offend.
He changed his flattering smile in seconds: "It turned out to be Miss Xia!" It was really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple. Miss Xia, this one hundred taels should be my gift to you, just take this young man away. ”
Xia Qingli was not surprised, no matter where he was, being powerful was king: "Tell your master that he is a courtier's family member or relative casually in this month, and it is better to keep a low profile." ”
The boss bent over: "I will definitely convey this to the master." Miss Xia, walk slowly. ”
Xia Qingli took the boy and left.
The two of them came to the large bathhouse.
Xia Qingli gave the clothes he had just bought to the young man and asked him to go in to take a bath and change his clothes: "I'll wait for you in the private room of the restaurant, and come to me when you wash up." ”
She turned to go to the restaurant and heard a sentence from the young man.
"Miss is not afraid, did I take the opportunity to run?"
Xia Qingli said indifferently: "If you really run away, it can only mean that I can't know people clearly." ”
After the words fell, she went to the restaurant.
The young man looked at her back for a long time and made a decision in his heart.
Xia Qingli didn't wait for a while in the restaurant, and waited for the young man who had washed up.
When she saw the appearance of the teenager clearly, the tails of her eyes were raised high, this was a beautiful and handsome but not feminine teenager.
"It's pretty good-looking, at least pleasing to the eye."
The young man's hand grasping the corner of his clothes loosened slightly: "Miss is satisfied." ”
Since he was a child, people around him have said that he is good-looking, but he knows very well that as a child of ordinary people, his appearance will bring him a lot of trouble.
Xia Qingli asked him to sit down: "Let's eat, let's talk while eating." Do you want to keep your original name, or do you want to get a new one? ”
The boy did not hesitate: "Please give the name of the young lady!" I used to be dead in that beating. When I bury my parents, I won't have anything to do with them anymore. ”
When his parents chose to commit suicide and left him alone to face these things, his relationship with his parents was broken. Burying his parents is his filial piety.
Xia Qingli motioned for him to eat quickly: "I don't talk much about these rules. As long as you are faithful and do things for me, I will not treat you badly. ”
The young man stuffed a large mouthful of sauced beef into his mouth, his eyes slightly wet: "Thank you, Miss, for saving me...... Save the life of a slave, and the slave will be loyal for a lifetime. ”
Xia Qingli didn't care about the title: "I heard, you are good at finding out news?" ”
The boy swallowed the food in his mouth, a little embarrassed: "I'm not good at finding out news." Because the minions have heart problems and can't bounce around like other people, the minions mostly chat with different people to get useful information and sell them to others in exchange for payment. ”
"Miss, don't look at the slave like this now, the slave can talk well with others, and the general news can be found."
Xia Qingli guessed that this kid had the kind of social: "I'm lacking someone who is good at finding out news." The situation of the Xia family is more complicated, I need to find out a lot of news, and let Ji Xiang Ruyi tell you when I go back. ”
"There is only one thing you have to do, find out all the circumstances of the Xia family and the Gu family. Lack of silver or something, I will give it to you. ”
The young man hurriedly responded and promised: "Miss don't worry, the slave will find out as much as possible." ”
Xia Qingli hummed and said his new name: "Your name is ...... The light is good. After I suck you, my life will be full of light, and I will never encounter such a thing again. ”
Guangming knelt on the ground and kowtowed to her three times: "Miss Xie gives her name!" ”
From this moment on, he was called the light.
Xia Qingli asked him to get up and continue to eat: "You have inquired about so much news, have you heard about the news about the Xia family and the Gu family?" ”
Guangming took a sip of the soup and thought for a while: "There are a lot of gossips about these two families, and many of them are related to Miss. ”
He felt that those gossips were very false, where was Miss an unlearned and vicious straw bale beauty, Miss was so powerful, she was smart here, it must be those people who were envious and jealous of Miss before they spread the rumors to slander her.
Xia Qingli asked him to talk about it.
Guangming sorted it out: "There is a strange rumor about the Xia family, saying that Mrs. Xia originally had someone to admire. Later, because the other party married the woman she liked, she married Lord Xia in a fit of anger. ”
Xia Qingli narrowed his eyes slightly: "Let's talk about this point specifically." ”
If this is the case, it may be able to explain why the Zhu family did not wait to see Xia Xuesong, and would rather be in the Buddhist hall than see him.
Guangming said in detail: "I don't know where this rumor came from, but Mrs. Xia did make a lot of trouble before she left the cabinet. At that time, the Zhu family chose several very good families for Mrs. Xia, but Mrs. Xia didn't want any of them, and dragged herself to the age of eighteen. ”
At that time, there were a lot of rumors, saying that Mrs. Xia's heart was higher than the sky, and she was delusional that she shouldn't be delusional, and the other party hated her very much, but she was calculating everywhere. Later, Mrs. Xia suddenly married Lord Xia, who had been pursuing her. ”
Suddenly......
Xia Qingli tapped his fingers on the table twice, and there was a vague thought in his mind: "Is it sudden?" ”
Because it was more than ten years ago, Guangming thought for a moment before saying, "It's very sudden. It is rumored that Mrs. Xia was still making trouble the day before and was unwilling to marry the family that the Zhu family helped her choose, and she married Lord Xia the next day. ”
Speaking of this, he lowered his voice, "There are also rumors that the reason why Aunt Wan hooked up with Lord Xia is because of Mrs. Xia's pen. said yes, Mrs. Xia didn't like Lord Xia, so she had to marry him in order not to be forced to marry by her family. ”
In the following time, Xia Qingli heard a lot of gossip about the Gu family and the Xia family from Guangming. For example, Gu Jinghan's life experience is problematic, and Aunt Wan is killed so that she can't get pregnant anymore and so on.
After she heard these gossips, the Xia family's people looking for her also arrived.
