"Three coins, or daily interest. Luo Kui exclaimed bitterly: "You, you rob money." ”

Wen Yuan smiled harmlessly: "I forgot to tell you, our ancestors started as loan sharks." ”

Luo Kui refused to put down the pen for a long time, Wen Yuan looked sideways, and saw the little girl hiding in the corner timidly, the shadow of the tree slightly rippling on her weak body, standing still and not daring to talk nonsense, but the pair of round and big eyes, dripping and spinning, looking very clever. He smiled slightly: "This kid looks at the strange spirit, if you don't want it, I will sell Huan Pavilion again, and the price can rise by one percent even if the price is not priced." ”

Although he and Wen Yuan are only two-sided friends, it is not known whether he is a righteous man and a gentleman, but he is by no means a well-dressed beast. Luo Kui naturally didn't take this seriously, only glanced at him, and said with a smile: "You look much more handsome than her, I heard that the male pets in the Hehuan Pavilion are more sought-after than the girls, and it must be worth more money to sell you than to sell her." ”

Wen Yuan shook his head: "I have a bad temper, if I sell me, you will lose money and be embarrassed, you have to think clearly." ”

Luo Kui smiled, and quickly passed the property that could be sold in his mind, and a small abacus crackled in his heart, and after calculating, he felt that if he had a life to live to seventy or eighty, it would not be too difficult to repay the loan shark, so he said firmly: "Okay, I'll sign." ”

"Although you don't live in this place well, you really don't show your face, what a big deal. Seeing her determined expression, Wen Yuan couldn't help but be taken aback, and continued with a smile: "Borrower, Shui Luokui, lender, empty green." ”

The flowers and branches in front of the court are lush and the blue water is meandering, like the floating tranquility that cannot be sought, but the intoxicating floating tranquility has always been short-lived and fragile, and it was torn open by the name of Kongqing in an instant.

Luo Kui's hand trembled, and the last stroke of the green character was slashed out, and his heart ached: "Kong Qing, you, aren't you called Wen Yuan." ”

There was a sharp glimmer in his eyes, Wen Yuan's expression was as usual for an instant, and he shook his head in distress: "Don't mention it, Kong Qing is my sixth brother, stingy and calculating, and the silver is bigger than the sky, I only owe him a thousand taels, he saw Tian'er chasing me, this silver was originally to be returned to him to have a quiet ear, and now I lend you a good person and buy this girl, then this debt can only fall on you, and he will be your creditor in the future, and he will come to you with this IOU to collect debts, you can't deny it." ”

This is a seamless speech, there is nothing to doubt, but the more flawless the words, the more debatable, Luo Kui was only stunned, so he signed his name without hesitation, his fingers were dyed with vermilion ink, pressed the handprint on the paper, and handed it to Wen Yuan, he found that he was staring at himself, and he didn't take his eyes off for a long time.

Wen Yuan is also articulate, but quite self-aware, he is not Luo Kui's opponent in the scolding, he retracted his eyes and bloomed a bright smile, put the IOU in his arms, and handed the little girl's deed of sale: "The girl will have to cut down on food and clothing in the future, my sixth brother has always been an iron rooster crossing the street without pulling out a dime, you have to be careful that he can come to collect debts at any time, right." As if remembering something, he stretched out a pair of hands and dexterously calculated in the void, looking like a very calculating businessman, and then he raised his eyebrows and smiled: "The interest of these five thousand taels is a lot." ”

After this incident, Luo Kui took the little girl's hand, brushed off the unkempt hair in front of her forehead, wiped the dust off her face with a handkerchief, and tilted her head to look down.

She lamented, she came out today to see the goods, but she didn't like the goods, but bought someone back, and somehow owed a huge amount of money, isn't it, isn't it to cut down on food and clothing, such a large amount of silver is only afraid that it will be returned to the ground, and she will also put her coffin book in.

It was a summer day, and the midday sun was bright and scorching, like a sharp sword piercing through the window, slanting into the house, and even the dust that rose up was stained with the smell of heat.

Set up a pot to boil water, Luo Kui sat on a low stool, kept adding firewood to the stove, and saw that the little girl was still leaning timidly against the corner, and couldn't help but say: "Don't be afraid, I don't eat people." ”

A sentence amused the little girl, her heart relaxed, glanced at the steaming cauldron, and asked timidly, "That, that girl is." ”

Falling sunflower was smoked by the smoke between the stoves, and laughed and coughed: "Boil water for a bath." She pinched the handkerchief to wipe the little girl's dirty face, and said with pity: "Look at you, your little face is dirty, and your clothes are torn, even if you have to leave, you must clean up before leaving." ”

The little girl lowered her head, looked at her toes, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito: "I won't go, the girl owes so much money to buy me, and I want to pay back the silver for the girl." ”

Luo Kui was stunned, tilted his head and smiled: "What do you say." ”

The little girl was bold and her voice was a little louder, but she still timidly lowered her head and said, "I said, I want to pay the girl's debt." ”

This little girl looks young, but she really knows that Entu is affectionate and righteous, Luo Kui was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "I'll talk about the silver later, but I don't know what your name is." ”

The little girl looked at her timidly, then lowered her head very quickly, and continued to murmur in a voice as low as a mosquito: "I, my name is Lilac." ”

Luo Kui mixed the slightly fragrant medicinal bath bean water into the cedar wood copper hoop bath bucket, picked up the water droplets with her fingertips to test the water temperature, and motioned for the little girl to strip off her clothes and dip into the water, with a charming fragrance of water just over her thin shoulders.

The little girl was shy and timid, her pretty face was as if it had been roasted by fire, it was so red, she hung her head down, her breathing was short, and her small chin almost touched her snow-white breasts.

Luo Kui moved a small stool and sat aside, rubbed some rose dew in the palm of his hand, chuckled and picked up some water, passed his five fingers through the black hair floating on the water, slowly rubbed the hair, and asked while rubbing: "So, how old are you?" ”

The little girl lowered her head even more, and said timidly: "I, I'm fourteen." ”

Luo Kui gently pushed her neck and shoulders with both hands, this push, her heart was shocked, this girl had injuries behind her ears and armpits, as if she was stabbed by some sharp weapon, and even ten fingers had blood marks that were stabbed by bamboo sticks, such a small girl, to suffer such a crime, her heart was unbearable, and her tongue was trembling: "You are so small, how could you go to a place like Hehuan Pavilion." ”

"Me. Lilac snorted for a long time: "I, I was sold by my uncle." ”

The world is difficult, and the sale of children and daughters almost every day, Luo Kui did not say anything. Just after a closer examination, I found that her skin formed two skin tones from the wrists, the skin of her hands was slightly thick and dark, and the wrists were snow-white and smooth, which was obviously caused by the long days of sun exposure and labor. There is no other state in Yunchu that has such a vicious sun exposure that can tan people's skin. Luo Kui's heart was clear, this girl was not from Yunchu Country, she was suspicious, but her face did not leak a bit: "You, you are not from Yunchu Country." ”

Lilac hung her head and said nothing, she was young, and she suddenly arrived in a completely foreign country, and she was already in a mess, and she didn't know how to reply, how to place her hands and feet.

"Don't be afraid, I never believed in such nonsense that is not my race, and its heart will be punished. Luo Kui adjusted some more ointment to heal injuries in the palm of her hand, rubbed her two hands warm, slowly pushed over the dark wounds on her body, and asked, "You are not from Yunchu, so which country are you?" ”

Some of the injuries on her body are scarred, some are growing new skin, and some of the wounds are turned up with bloody wounds, and a bead of blood oozes out when you touch it lightly, Lilac gasped in pain, her voice trembled, and she wanted to speak and stopped: "I, I am a fisherman girl from Eastern Fujian." ”

Eastern Fujian Kingdom, Eastern Fujian Kingdom and Yunchu Kingdom face each other across the sea, with such a little girl, she will never be able to come here alone, except for people, the people next to her really don't have such ability.

Seeing that Lilac couldn't bear the pain, Luo Kui's hand was a little softer, for fear of hurting her again: "So, what about your family, are you a relative from Yunchu Kingdom?" ”

The cloves had already been pushed by these warm and gentle hands and were covered in sweat, soft as a ball of cotton, soaked in water. The hands swept over her legs, a little light drilled out of her fingertips, slowly seeping into her legs, she trembled, as if there was a dark fire about to penetrate the skin, burning fiercely on her body, she shook her head reluctantly: "I have no family, my father died, my uncle occupied the land and house left by my father, and sold me and my sister, I was sold all the way to the Hehuan Pavilion, but my sister has no whereabouts." ”

Luo Kui tried to see that she was still in a perfect body, so she quietly withdrew her slight light, slowly got up and dried her hands, handed over a towel, and motioned her to bathe by herself.

Lilac couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, her body sank down, the water didn't go up her chin, and her heart was uneasy like carrying a rabbit, jumping and jumping, she was a little girl who had never been in the world, but she was locked up in the Hehuan Pavilion for so long, but the joy of clouds and rain was used to it.

The old bustard asked her to do business in Hehuan Pavilion, but she refused, and was beaten and injured in the dark. After being tortured for so long, she didn't say a soft word, and only then did she survive until the day she escaped. And Luo Kui's temptation really scared her, making her think that she had just come out of the wolf's den and entered the tiger's mouth, and she didn't dare to stay in the water for too long, so she only soaked slightly, and then got up with the bath bucket.

Coming out of the water, Luo Kui wrapped her in a wide robe, sucked up the water droplets on her body, sent her to the inner room to change her clothes, and asked through the screen, "They beat you." ”
