Chapter 574: A Cup of Poisoned Wine

The two children were so hungry that their saliva was about to come down, but they didn't dare to reach out to take it, and looked at their mother with inquiring eyes.

The woman touched their faces with pity and nodded, "Since it is a kindness from Madame, you can eat it." ”

"Good!" The two little dolls were overjoyed, took the roast chicken and devoured it, even though they were already hungry, they did not forget to tear off the most delicious chicken thighs and put them in their mother's bowl.

The woman looked at them tenderly for a while, and then looked at Su Qingyan, "Madam, I don't have any ink in my stomach, but I also understand the truth that the sky will not serve pies well, what is your purpose?" ”

"Don't get me wrong, auntie, the reason why I bought roast chicken for my children is just because I feel sorry for them, after all, I will have to be a mother soon, so I can't see them suffering."

Hearing this, the woman subconsciously looked at her abdomen, although her clothes were very loose, but if you looked closely, she could still see a slight bulge.

"Madame is so slender that I didn't even see that I was pregnant with a child."

Su Qingyan smiled lightly, "Now my aunt shouldn't doubt me." ”

"I'm sorry, I don't want to think too badly of people's hearts, it's just that I've been through too much these days, and I have to be a little vigilant."

"I can understand, in fact, I did have something to ask when I came here today."

"If you have anything to say, Madame, just say it, as long as you know, I will tell you the truth."

"How many workers are being exploited and oppressed in this tea plantation now?"

The woman pondered for a moment, and then said, "Counting the young children, there are at least a hundred and ten." ”

This number is far more than Su Qingyan expected, "Didn't you think about going to the government to sue him?" ”

"Behind the money is Concubine Xiaoyao, even if we have ten guts, we don't dare to make a mistake. Besides, where will the government care about the life and death of our people. ”

As the 'carefree Concubine Su' in her mouth, Su Qingyan carried a black pot for no reason, and this feeling was really a little aggrieved.

"Auntie, the wicked have their own harvest, please believe me, it won't be long before the money boss will pay the price for what he has done."

When the woman heard this, her expression did not change at all, "I am ready to die here of old age, and whatever is not providential is just self-deception." ”

She had no hope for the future, and it was futile to say any more words of consolation at this time.

Su Qingyan took a deep breath and stood up from the stool, "It's not too early, auntie rest early, and I'll come to visit you in a few days." ”

"Okay, Madame, go slowly."

Walking out of this leaky house, Su Qingyan always felt like a big stone was pressing on his heart, and he couldn't breathe.

The dyeing workshop belongs to the Baoqing Chamber of Commerce, and the experience of this group of innocent people, although it has no direct relationship with her, is also inextricably linked.

If it weren't for the shopkeeper Guo mentioning it, I'm afraid that the evil deeds of the head of Qian would never be revealed.

"Concubine Su, you don't have to blame yourself too much, it's not too late to rescue the workers." Xie Ying saw that her mood was not quite right, and comforted her softly.

"Well, let's go back to the guest room and rest."

"Yes."

This night, Su Qingyan tossed and turned, but never slept soundly.

The next day, as soon as Dongfang revealed her white, she went to the cloth village in Chu Xingzhi.

"Qingyan, why are you here? There was no breakfast, I ordered someone to prepare pastries. "I haven't seen her for many days, and Chu Xingzhi is very happy to see her.

"Don't be in a hurry to have breakfast first, I'm here to discuss something with you."

She rarely had such a serious time, and the smile on Chu Xingzhi's face gradually subsided, and she also became the calm Boss Chu in the past.

"Why do you need to make a trip yourself so early?"

Su Qingyan recounted the matter of the dyeing workshop in detail, "That Zhuangzi should have belonged to you to manage, but now a group of scourges are in it, and if you don't rectify it, I'm afraid it will cause a big disaster." ”

Chu Xingzhi was extremely angry after hearing this, "I've been busy escorting fabrics these days, and I didn't think that they would dare to mess with me right under my nose." Qingyan, this matter is indeed my dereliction of duty. ”

"There is no point in holding out who is right and who is wrong, the top priority is to come up with a good way to help the people who are being oppressed."

"At that time, when the money was in charge to help pay off the debt, the group of workers must have signed the contract, in black and white, even if it went to court, there was nothing to do."

The people came to work in the tea plantations voluntarily to pay off their debts, and even if the money was a treacherous person, they could not be held accountable from this point.

"So what to do, do you want to watch innocent people being bullied?"

Chu Xingzhi pondered for a moment and said, "It's best to find out the other charges of Qian Zhang, and then hand it over to the imperial court for disposal, as long as he is overthrown, the rest of the things will be easy to handle." ”

"Although I have known Qian Zhangshi for a short time, I can also see that he is a very cautious and cautious person, and it may not be so easy to catch him."

"As long as anything happens, there must be a trace. Qingyan, you are so smart, you will definitely be able to deal with him properly. ”

Su Qingyan sighed, "I'll do my best, but I still need your help." ”

There is nothing else in Chu Xingzhi's Zhuangzi, and there are so many fabrics.

She selected six hundred horses and sent them all in a wagon to the dyeing mill.

Seeing so many fabrics, Qian Zhangshi smiled and showed his yellow teeth, "Madam is really generous, she sent so many fabrics for the first cooperation." The workers in the workshop will definitely do their best to dye for you and will never let you down. ”

"Then there is labor money in charge, I have been busy all morning, I feel very tired, first go to the room to rest for a while."

"You're delicate, go back and rest, just leave it to me here."

"Hmm."

Xie Ying helped Su Qingyan to walk in the direction of the guest room, and when he walked to the corner of the corridor, suddenly a woman with a cloak and hair bumped into him head-on.

Xie Ying was startled, and quickly reached out to stop him, "What's the matter with you woman, don't you walk without eyes!" ”

The woman was also frightened, her body trembled like a leaf in the wind, and after a closer look, there were still a few wisps of Su Qingyan at the corner of her mouth that smelled a trace of something wrong, and asked in a low voice: "Girl, what difficulties have you encountered?"

"......" The woman lowered her head, not daring to say a word, but her body trembled even more.

"If you can trust me, then follow me back to the room, I can guarantee that no one will be able to hurt you."

The woman is like a person who has fallen into the lake and is about to drown, Su Qingyan's words are undoubtedly the last straw, she has to desperately grasp it even if she is desperate.

"I'll go back with you!"

Su Qingyan bowed her head, motioned to Xie Ying with her eyes, and the three of them avoided the other workers in the Zhuangzi and went back to the guest room together.

In the room__Xie Ying poured two cups of hot tea and pressed the woman on the stool, "Since you're here, I'll answer when I ask you later, don't keep pretending to be dumb." ”

"Ah Ying, don't scare her, you go outside and guard first."

"Okay." Xie Ying reluctantly went outside the door.

Now that only the two of them were left in the room, Su Qingyan pushed the teacup to the woman's hand, and asked kindly, "Are you a worker in the dyeing workshop?" ”

The woman shook her head.

"That's working in the tea plantations?"

The woman still shook her head.

Su Qingyan pursed her lips, "Since it's not, it should be the concubine in charge of Qian." ”

"......" The woman's tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes, and finally her voice opened hoarsely, "I originally followed my father and mother to work as a coolie in the village to pay off debts, but the beast in Qianshan took a fancy to my appearance and tarnished my innocence. ”
