Chapter 71: Will count


Fu Chaoxuan's face became heavy, and he asked, "Did he not eat or drink in the past few days?"
The woman nodded and said, "Yes, since we entered the city, those people have expelled us everywhere. We had to hide in Tibet. We didn't have anything. The child naturally couldn't stand it." She said, tears rushing into her eyes. Flowed down.
Li Xuening quietly turned away, Jiang Xiaolou sighed, these people entered the capital from Liaozhou, the government did not welcome them, and because they spoke with a Liaozhou accent and their identity was unknown, most people refused to take them in. , Can only wander around. Adults can still bear it, but such a small child is pitiful, and he was displaced with his parents at a young age. Li Xuening couldn't bear it, but she still looked at the child's small face unconsciously, her long eyelashes were stained with tears, and the expression on her face was particularly complicated.
Seeing her like this, Jiang Xiaolou naturally knew that she was thinking of her child who had died young. After a heartbreak, he said, "Doctor Fu, there should be some help."
Fu Chaoxuan pondered for a while before he said: "First feed it with hot rice soup, and I will prescribe two more medicines, and wait for tomorrow morning to see the situation. If you can wake up, it will be fine."
The woman knelt down and kowtowed to Fu Chaoxuan: "Thank you doctor, thank you doctor!"
Fu Chaoxuan personally helped her up and said softly: "Don't thank me. If you want to, thank these two young ladies. They are kind enough to hire a doctor for the child."
The couple turned their heads, kowtow to Jiang Xiaolou and Li Xuening desperately, knocking their foreheads into bleeding.
Jiang Xiaolou told Xiaodie: "Personnel Yao, please arrange a room for them to rest, and we will provide enough for them as needed."
The woman was less than thirty but her hair was gray, with deep lines on her forehead and eyes. Looking at Jiang Xiaolou, Nene could not speak.
Jiang Xiaolou couldn't bear to look at the crisscrossing pain on their faces, and said lightly: "Okay, Xue Ning, we should go back too."
Li Xuening nodded. They went out with Fu Chaoxuan. Knowing that Fu Chaoxuan seemed to have something to say, Li Xuening deliberately pulled Xiaodie to go faster and got in the car first.
When Jiang Xiaolou saw her wanting to cover up like this, he couldn't help shook his head.
Fu Chaoxuan knew that Li Xuening was a smart girl, but her face was slightly reddish: "Today I thought you were injured, so I rushed all the way. Fortunately, you are fine."
Jiang Xiaolou paused before smiling, "Everything is fine, thank you for your concern."
After hearing this, Fu Chaoxuan couldn't help but speak in a dumb manner. He looked at Jiang Xiaolou, his eyes stunned, not knowing what to say.
Jiang Xiaolou had already clearly rejected the person in front of him, and did not want to leave him unrealistic hopes. Although his attitude was gentle, he acted very politely: "Thank you for today's matter."
Fu Chaoxuan frowned, "Healers' parents, even if you are not here to invite me, I will definitely be there."
Jiang Xiaolou smiled and said, "So, I won't say thank you anymore, I will send someone to take you back."
Fu Chaoxuan's face sank slightly, his expression stiffened: "Is it just because I confessed to you that you refused to stay thousands of miles away, and I just made you unhappy?"
Jiang Xiaolou's eyes were very calm: "Why does Doctor Fu say this? I never meant to."
Fu Chaoxuan's chest was ups and downs, endured and endured, and finally did not hold back: "Since it is not, why don't you come back? If I hadn't taken the initiative to go to Xie's house, I would never see you again, right?"
Jiang Xiaolou knew the meaning of his words, but his eyes were shining brightly: "My illness is cured, and I no longer need to bother Doctor Fu."
Fu Chaoxuan was taken aback for a moment, and then he woke up. She was reminding him that their relationship only stopped here and could not go further.
In Jiang Xiaolou's heart, there was a place he couldn't enter. So she refused, but to whom did his heart tell?
Thinking of this, his lips turned pale, and his voice had already gone out of shape: "In this case, even if I am passionate, I thought we were friends after all and would not be so alienated. Who knows that you only treat me as a doctor!"
Jiang Xiaolou is neither overbearing nor overbearing, and very sincere: "Doctor Fu, don't think too much about it, you are my friend anytime."
Jiang Xiaolou never gave him hope from beginning to end, and she was also blunt about it. The more so, the more he felt unwilling. If she was willing to give herself a chance, the outcome might be different. Fu Chaoxuan looked reluctantly on her face, and finally he sighed and said: "No matter, I should go. If there is anything, let Xiaodie go to the medicine hall to find me."
Jiang Xiaolou nodded and watched Fu Chaoxuan leave. As soon as I got into the car, I heard Li Xuening say: "Look, Doctor Fu always has you in his heart."
Jiang Xiaolou smiled faintly: "So what, I have already made it clear to him, what's the point of entanglement?"
Li Xuening sighed faintly, with infinite regret in her eyes: "What a silly girl, she is sincere to you, but you miss it again and again, and you will definitely regret it in the future."
Jiang Xiaolou was calm, but without a trace of regret: "Doctor Fu is not suitable for me. I have told you this a long time ago, so don't worry about it anymore. He and I will never go together. of."
The carriage staggered forward, and Li Xue stared at Jiang Xiaolou's side face with suspicion in her heart: "Xiaolou, did you think--that couple was a bit strange."
Jiang Xiaolou's eyes were shining, and he smiled: "I thought Xue Ning was a bodhisattva's heart, and it would be easy to be deceived by others, so you saw something wrong."
The carriage went faster and faster, the curtains were slightly rolled, and the ethereal candlelight shrouded Li Xue’s white face with a faint shadow. She groaned: "In the beginning, the couple had been taciturn and disappeared in the crowd. Pay special attention. When I found out that the child was sick later, I saw the woman holding the child’s arms covered with whipping marks... Just now I have been thinking whether they were injured after being expelled by the soldiers, or for other reasons. ."
Jiang Xiaolou smiled: "Since you have doubts, why do you want to take them in?"
Li Xuening did not hesitate: "For the child. No matter what is wrong with the two adults, the child is indeed sick. If you shut them out, you will cut off the child's life. This is not the case for you. You are obviously enthusiastic. , But always put on a black face."
Jiang Xiaolou's smile faded: "I don't have the kind of heart that you have, so I have to take in these people-naturally there is my intention."
Li Xuening was startled, and said strangely: "What's the intention?"
Jiang Xiaolou slowly said: "They come from Liaozhou, and they don't go to beg at anyone's shop. They just want to go to my door, no matter how the shopkeeper expells them, they will not leave alive. The child is sick, showing a very pitiful look. It looks like, I have to save it until tomorrow morning...So many coincidences collide together, I really want to know what is hidden behind the coincidences."
There is a trace of sadness on Li Xuening's face. Everyone in this world has his own reasons, but no matter what the reason is, it should not be an excuse to conceal and deceive. If kindness is used for no reason, even if it is hard-hearted. To be riddled with...
The next morning, when Jiang Xiaolou and Li Xuening arrived at Boguzhai, the shopkeeper told them: "The child's high fever has gone away. The couple will lead the child to come and thank them."
Jiang Xiaolou said, "Let them come in."
Soon, the couple walked in with the baby in their arms, and kowtoed at them as soon as they entered the door: "Thank you, Miss! Thank you, Miss for saving my child's life!"
Jiang Xiaolou glanced at the two of them lightly, and said as usual: "Since the child's illness is cured, you two will go on the road immediately."
The couple glanced at each other, and the man opened his mouth with eyes full of anxiety: "Miss, the Bodhisattva of Mercy and Compassion, saved my son's life. We haven't repaid such kindness, so how can we leave. If the young lady doesn't dislike it, our husband and wife... Stay in this shop! Don’t pay for it, the lady will just be able to do anything.

Jiang Xiaolou lowered his eyelashes and said nothing. Xiaodie understood what she meant, and said, "What you said is strange. I want to hire someone. It's not good to hire someone. If you have to hire a refugee, don't you trouble yourself?"
The man was anxious, and hurriedly said: "Miss, I didn't mean that! Oh, I'm dumb and can't speak. Our husband and wife don't want to stay here or leave, but just want to repay your grace... We are willing to be cattle and horses!"
The woman was wiping her tears and her lips trembled: "Just tell the truth, don't lie in front of the lady! Miss, we are eager to find a shelter because the child's illness has not fully recovered. If we go on the road now, we are afraid. Being beaten by the wind and rain, on the contrary, gave him a small life! Miss, you will be a good person to the end and take us in! We don't eat much, and we can help you work!"
The woman's words are obviously more truthful and more credible.
The shopkeeper Yao heard the words and looked at the couple carefully. The man has long hands and feet, and the woman is not weak... He thought about it, and then said carefully: "Miss, I see it is feasible, see The two of them have cleaned up and are still personal. There is a shortage of staff in the shop. Anyway, they don’t need any wages, just give them food. Hey, you can’t go back and ask for money again, that’s not okay!

Shopkeeper Yao has done a good job of abacus, and now the cost of hiring a guy is far more than that of the refugees. Many people have quietly taken in these people, only for food but not for wages. This was originally extremely mean, but it has long since become the norm, and the shopkeeper saw that they looked honest, and moved this mind.
Li Xuening glanced at Jiang Xiaolou, and her teary mole swayed, like her mood was fluctuating. Jiang Xiaolou saw the contradiction in the other party's heart and smiled and said: "If this is the case, you will stay in the shop and work with the shopkeeper. From now on, this child has fully recovered. You can leave or stay whatever you want. I will never force it. "
The woman hugged the child tightly, her tears streaming down, her lips trembled, she couldn't say a word, she just kept kowtow.
Shopkeeper Yao asked: "What's your name?"
The man's dark face showed a smile: "Wang Heng."
Wang Heng is very agile and flexible in greeting customers. He soon became a good helper of the shopkeeper. In addition to taking care of the children, the woman helped with chores most of the time. His hands and feet were diligent, clean and tidy, even the picky Yao The shopkeeper couldn't fault it.
When Jiang Xiaolou asked about it, the shopkeeper Yao smiled: "Miss, this time we are doing good deeds and it is really rewarding. After these two people came, most of the shop’s work was done by them. According to If this situation continues, one or two buddies can be fired after a while."
Jiang Xiaolou thoughtfully said, "Since the treasurer Yao likes them, let them stay for a long time."
With Jiang Xiaolou's approval, the Wang family stayed in this shop. The shop is in the antiques business, and Wang Heng earnestly followed the shopkeeper, regardless of rough work, and no matter what others pushed him, as long as the shopkeeper instructed him to do everything. Jiang Xiaolou silently observes Wang Heng every time, but when the other party finds Jiang Xiaolou's sight, he often smiles honestly. From start to finish, he acted like a grateful person, without any unusual behavior.
On this day, an old man came to the pawnshop. He had a thick felt hat on his head, a cane in his hand, and a long coat that covered his hem. After entering the shop, he took out a wooden box from his rucksack and carefully said to the shopkeeper: "This is my heirloom treasure. Please give it to me and leave it if you like."
When the shopkeeper heard the words, he immediately took it, opened the wooden box, and found that inside was a sapphire jade fisherman, woodcutter, farming and reading map mountain, sapphire texture, with a thin layer of orange jade skin on the surface, carved out mountains and green pine by embossing techniques At the pavilion, two fishermen are busy weaving fish baskets. In the distance, a woodman under the pine trees is halfway up the mountain and he is bent over to bundle firewood. On the pavilion there is a scholar holding a scroll. The characters are lifelike and are treasures at first glance. Shopkeeper Yao was surprised, and immediately asked: "Old man, where did this thing come from?"
The old man raised his eyelids and glanced at him: "My ancestral treasure, it is said that it is the birthday gift that Emperor Jingyu gave to his mentor two hundred years ago. It is worth a thousand dollars. If there is a special situation, I will not sell it anyway."
"Old man, your last name?"
"My name is Yan." The old man said calmly, but his expression faintly revealed the pride of a hermit.
The treasurer Yao looked at him for a long time, his fingers couldn't help but groping on the jade skin, and he thought to himself that the picture of Yuqiao Farming and Reading was specially made by Emperor Jingyu for his teacher Yan Ziling. Yan Ziling used to be the teacher of Emperor Jingyu by chance. After Emperor Jingyu became the emperor, he asked him to be an official many times, but he refused. He hides in the mountains and fishes forever. Fishing, literally means fishing, and another meaning is seeking. When the fish swallowed the bait, they were caught by the hook. People who took the salary had to obey the monarch. This picture contains profound meaning and is very famous for a century. Although the old man's clothes are ordinary, he has a good talking and temperament. Looking at the jade in his hands, he is also very gentle, which is true in all likelihood. He made up his mind and asked: "How much?"
The old man said: "One thousand taels."
Shopkeeper Yao smiled. If this thing is true, you can sell it for three thousand taels after changing hands. This old man 80% doesn't know the market. He twisted his beard and said in a deep thought, "This... the price is too high, I'm afraid I won't be the master."
"Then find someone who can call the shots!" The old man said proudly.
The shopkeeper Yao was about to go in and ask Jiang Xiaolou for instructions. By the way, he made a statement that this thing was true. Wang Heng, who was watching all this silently, grabbed the shopkeeper's sleeves and pulled him to a place where no one was there, saying: " Shopkeeper, you still have to wait and see!"
Shopkeeper Yao frowned: "Why?"
Wang Heng was a little worried: "This thing... doesn't seem to be true."
Shopkeeper Yao was full of displeasure: "What do you know! I have only been with me for a few days, so I don't want to have a good day, right?"
I was about to severely reprimand, but I heard Jiang Xiaolou's voice: "Wang Heng, why do you say that?"
When the treasurer Yao heard this voice, he bowed a little nervously: "Miss, don't listen to this talking nonsense. I have been here for so many years, and I have passed by many things, and I have never lost my eyes!"
Jiang Xiaolou didn't look at him, but said kindly: "Wang Heng, tell me about it."
Shopkeeper Yao sighed: "Miss, this piece of jade is rare in the world, and it is hard to find in the world. If you can buy it at a low price and sell it at a high price, you will definitely make a lot of money. But you are still undecided, and people change at any time. Mind, we have lost a lot of business! Don't blame me then!"
Wang Heng was not in a hurry. He only carefully held the piece of jade and examined it for a long time before he said: "Shopkeeper Yao, look, this is not real jade at all, only the outer layer of jade skin, but the inside is fake. …It is a world away from Zhen Shanzi, and the price is very different."
"Nonsense! Are you saying that I am blind?! Can I see if this thing is true or false?" The treasurer Yao's face already showed an annoyed look.
Jiang Xiaolou said calmly, "Please come, that old man."
Shopkeeper Yao glanced at her, his heart stunned, he straightened his back and went out to invite the old man.
The old man looked impatient: "How much do you pay?"
Shopkeeper Yao sneered and deliberately pushed the box to him and said, "I'm sorry, this shop does not accept fakes."
The old man furiously said: "What fake, I gave it to you, but it is an ancestral treasure!"
A cold sweat broke out on Wang Heng's forehead, but he still insisted on his opinion: "This is indeed a fake."
Jiang Xiaolou said indifferently: "You can say nothing, Wang Heng, if you have evidence, you might as well talk about it."
Wang Heng gritted his teeth and told the truth after all: "When I was in Liaozhou, there were jade craftsmen in the village. They boiled inferior stones in prepared things to remove all kinds of impurities and variegated colors, and then fill them with color. After a few processes, the original poor stone has been transformed into a jade and a mountain, and its value has doubled. This mountain is not raw jade at all, but a white stone dyed green. Ordinary white stone is processed..."
"You are spitting blood!" The old man was extremely angry, "Look at this old skin, can it be done in one or two days?"
There was a trace of fear on Wang Heng's face, but he continued: "This...this can also be done, but it is just to polish with sandpaper, the idea is to make it old, and then apply a layer of wax, it is bright and slippery..."
The old man's face became more and more ugly, staring at Wang Heng as if staring at an enemy. He pointed to the jade article and said: "You must be the black heart and adjusted my baby!"
Wang Heng's eyes didn't blink: "The old man you sent me is exquisite in workmanship, and we can't imitate it overnight. If you have to mess around, let's go to the government to judge."
Hearing this, the old man who was originally murderous and raised his crutches to hit someone let go, barely squeezing out a smile: "Okay, you're great!" He didn't wait for Yao's shopkeeper to speak, so he immediately took the box with him. Up.
Seeing the old man leaving, the shopkeeper Yao patted his chest in fear, and said: "Even I almost gotta do it, you are really capable!"
Wang Heng smiled honestly: "This jade...There are a lot of people in our village who are imitating, and big businessmen have come to buy them all the way. My family has also learned to make one or two, but because the craftsmanship is not home, we can’t ship it. I can go back to farm...I see it a lot, and it's easy to tell. I don't know anything about painting and calligraphy. I only have jade...I can even hit a big luck.
Shopkeeper Yao showed a relieved expression, patted his shoulder and said: "Young man, there is a future." After saying that, he apologized to Jiang Xiaolou: "Miss, it's all mine. Today, my old eyes are dim, but I couldn't. Look at it!"
Jiang Xiaolou's eyes were like water, and he lightly brushed over his face: "It's also common for old horses to stumble, so don't worry about it."
Shopkeeper Yao was completely relieved.
After the two of them left, Li Xuening, who had been behind the screen, walked out and asked Jiang Xiaolou, "Do you understand?"
The smile on Jiang Xiaolou's surface grew deeper and deeper: "I see."
Li Xuening was full of confusion: "This matter... the more I look at it, the more it gets wrong. This Wang Heng looks simple and honest, and works hard and conscientiously. Today he helped us solve a big problem. He should be a reliable person. I always feel a little unsure in my heart."
There was nothing wrong with Wang Heng, but it was too normal, and Li Xuening felt that he was faintly strange.
Jiang Xiaolou said indifferently: "Liaozhou produces jade, and many people buy it, but every year the output is limited, so many imitation jade appears. If the imitation is good, it can almost be fake. My father once mentioned that the more remote the country is. The more you hide the master who makes fake jade, you must be very careful about this kind of thing, you will lose your fortune if you don’t buy it. Everything that Wang Heng said is true..."
Li Xuening's face was pale, and there was no trace of blood on her lips: "Let them leave, it's better than provoke something wrong."
Jiang Xiaolou's expression is extremely quiet: "When you come, you will be safe. They have already been taken away. Now I will drive them away-don't you think it is too late? I have another purpose for this couple."
Xue Ning couldn't help worrying that this move was too risky: "I am always worried, maybe this is not a good idea."
Jiang Xiaolou sneered: "When you enter my shop, don't want to leave easily. I really want to know why they came here."
When settling accounts at the end of the month, Jiang Xiaolou specially sealed a big red envelope to Wang Heng, and Wang Heng was very happy to thank her. Jiang Xiaolou showed his trust in Wang Heng and offered to keep him and be a buddy in the shop for a long time. Seeing that success has gained the trust of Jiang Xiaolou, Wang Heng was obviously relieved.
That night, Jiang Xiaolou specially set up a banquet table to gather everyone in the shop. Shopkeeper Yao drank a few glasses of wine, before long his face was flushed with great interest.
Jiang Xiaolou smiled and said, "I have only taken over this shop for one month, but the profit has increased by 20% compared to the previous month. This is the result of your efforts. According to the truth, I should be very happy, but unfortunately..." When she got here, she looked around everyone, and her smile slowly faded: "But yesterday I went to ask for a divination, and the Taoist said that I have committed a crime this year and Boguzhai is a misfortune."
Shopkeeper Yao and everyone were taken aback, and everyone was full of noisy discussions.
Jiang Xiaolou's gaze finally fell on Wang Heng, and Wang Heng also forced a calm look at Jiang Xiaolou, but his body was trembling.
Shopkeeper Yao was alert and quickly said, "Miss, what do you mean by this?"
Jiang Xiaolou smiled and said: "I mean, shopkeeper Yao is not clear? There are people in this shop who don't follow the rules--"
The treasurer Yao swallowed, and calmed himself: "This-isn't it?"
Jiang Xiaolou suddenly raised his voice: "Wang Heng, what do you say?"
Wang Heng's honest face became shocked: "Miss...I, I don't know."
Everyone held their breath, looking at all this with strange expressions. Could it be that the person the lady said was Wang Heng? !
Jiang Xiaolou's eyelashes cast two shadows, which seemed particularly quiet: "It's been more than half a month since you entered the shop. Didn't you find anything?"
Beads of sweat were already pouring out of Wang Heng's forehead, his fingers were trembling, and almost his legs and feet began to weaken.
Jiang Xiaolou said: "This person is eating my meal and holding my silver biscuits, but he colludes with outsiders to deceive me. You say, should I get him out?"
Everyone looked at Wang Heng, and Wang Heng hardly dared to raise his head, only that his back was soaked.
"Come here, tie him up!" Jiang Xiaolou raised his face and pointed his slender fingers straight to one of them.
Wang Heng only felt that all his energy was drained, his eyes turned black and his heart was beating like a drum. However, in the next moment, the shopkeeper Yao exclaimed: "Miss! Miss, what do you mean!"
"What do you mean? I just took over the shop, but it's still not your turn to join hands with others to cheat me. What a jade treasure, but you want to profit from it. Master Yao, you disappointed me too much. ."
Jiang Xiaolou waved his hand, and the servant immediately escorted the treasured treasurer Yao out.
Wang Heng almost fell to his knees in fright on the spot. Fortunately, he stabilized in time and he was relieved when he watched treasurer Yao being taken out.
Jiang Xiaolou looked at a steward next to her and said, "From today, steward Ma will be the treasurer."
Ma is in charge, no, the current horse shopkeeper did not expect the happy event to fall from the sky, and thanked Jiang Xiaolou for his trust.
Now that the banquet has come, everyone is hairy. The new master doesn’t need to rub the sand with his eyes, but shopkeeper Yao has planted this time... Jiang Xiaolou poured a glass of wine and wished each other far away: "My respects."
Wang Heng was the last to hold up the wine glass. His hands were trembling, and the wine was spilled out. No one else noticed anything, but Jiang Xiaolou laughed.
People slowly dispersed, but Jiang Xiaolou raised his voice: "Wang Heng, you stay."
Wang Heng's back froze, and he stayed in the eyes of everyone's doubts and probing. Jiang Xiaolou stroked the icy rim of the cup and said, "I have been here for so long, are you still used to it?"
Wang Heng said authentically: "Thanks to Miss, everything is fine."
Jiang Xiaolou said, "A few days ago, someone in this shop went out to buy kerosene and buried it in a copper pot under a tree in the backyard. Last night, when everyone fell asleep, he went to the yard again. Those things have been dug up, you say-what is he doing?"
The fear in Wang Heng's heart had already swelled infinitely, and he fell to his knees with a thump, and said loudly, "Miss, please!"
Jiang Xiaolou's face was nothing but carelessness: "Spare? What wrong did you make and need me to spare."
Wang Heng looked at her with horror: "Miss, one person is responsible for everything, everything is my fault, I just ask you not to embarrass my wife and children, I am willing to punish you, if you want to kill or kill you!"
Jiang Xiaolou's eyes are like stars, and he has already laughed: "Look at what you said, I am not killing people without blinking, how can I kill you and slash you."
Wang Heng was shocked by the gentle voice: "I'm going to set fire in the shop, how could the lady spare me?"
Jiang Xiaolou sighed and said, "Yeah, you and I have no grievances, why did you come to the shop and set fire."
Wang Heng's face was deep, his pupils tightened, but he gritted his teeth and said nothing. At this moment, Wang Heng's wife suddenly rushed out. She grabbed Wang Heng's shoulder and hissed: "Miss is so kind to us, how can you do such a thing?" After finishing, she was excited. He beat Wang Heng to the ground, tears streaming down his face.
Jiang Xiaolou looked at him without showing his expression: "When Xue Ning took you in, I had doubts in my heart. But Xue Ning believed that kindness is rewarded, and there are still many people in the world who are grateful for the report. It's a pity that she was wrong. I'm very disappointed in you guys."
Wang's wife suddenly raised her head when she heard the words, her teeth almost bleeding her lips: "I'm telling you, tell you everything! We escaped from Liaozhou, before he was arrested to repair the garden for the emperor"
Jiang Xiaolou sat up straight: "You repeat what you just said!"
Wang Heng bowed his head and clenched his fists. The woman had to continue to say: "Your Majesty is going to renovate the palace in Liaozhou and recruit skilled craftsmen. After two years of hard work, the cost and money cannot be calculated, and the garden has only been repaired by half. Seeing this situation, the officials in charge of the garden are worried. So, they arrested all the poor in Liaozhou, which was regarded as the servitude of various families... But the supervisors were not human. They had to drink water from the Kang River to build a pond, forcibly forcing more than 400 people to dig a canal until the river was clear. When the cold water came down, people were drowned alive...There were so many people, and we were the only one who fled back. But there were people in the village watching, and we could not live anymore. Miss! We were also forced to do not leave, I am afraid that even She can't save her life!" After she finished speaking, she took off her coat in front of Jiang Xiaolou, her skinny body was covered with weal marks, and the longest was more than two feet long, still with red blood. .
The woman drenched her clothes with tears:
If you don’t have enough to eat, if you don’t wear warm clothes, you will have to work and be beaten. Sooner or later you will be tortured to death by them. We just want a way to survive!

When the emperor was pursuing politics, Liaozhou was too far away from the capital. The order to repair the palace became an opportunity for local officials to collect money.
He didn't say a word from beginning to end, but Li Xuening, who was watching quietly by the side, sighed softly when seeing this situation. The harsh government is fierce, and I did not expect Liaozhou to have such violent officials. For a long time, she couldn't help but speak: "Since you are here as a refugee, why did you enter this shop? Who instructed you?"
The woman did not dare to speak, but mourned and cried. At this time, Wang Heng wiped a tear and stood up abruptly: "You are both good people. Now that this matter has been exposed, I will not hide it anymore. Let me tell you all! How did our husband and wife be that day? It was easy to escape into the city and took the children around begging. Most people were cold-hearted. We walked for three days and three nights, and no one was willing to give alms. Later..."
When talking about the key points, Wang Heng continued to gritted his teeth and said: "Later we encountered a gorgeous carriage, and the lady in the carriage pointed me to Boguzhai. As long as I deliberately revealed the Liaozhou accent when speaking to arouse your sympathy, She will definitely accept us. She also said that as long as she does what she tells, she will give me a hundred taels of silver after the job is done, so that our husband and wife will find another place to live again."
Jiang Xiaolou smiled: "One hundred taels can make you set fire in my shop, it's too cheap."
Wang Heng was embarrassed and regretful: "I am obsessed with money, and the child is very sick... I am also desperate. Miss, I have nothing to do with it. I have no second words, but she and the child are innocent. She has been persuading me not to I have been hesitating to do this kind of hurtful things, and I have been urged many times over there. I just didn't dare to do it, and I always felt sad. If it were not for your help, my son would die if he couldn't wait for that one. "
Jiang Xiaolou stared at him before saying, "Xiaodie, go get two hundred taels."
Fluttershy moved quickly and quickly fetched the silver ticket. Wang Heng was shocked and looked at Jiang Xiaolou, "Miss, what do you mean?"
Jiang Xiaolou looked peaceful: "I won't beat you or punish you. I will give you two hundred taels. You can live a good life."
Wang Heng looked at her blankly, completely stupid.
The woman hurriedly said: "Dare not, dare not! What are you doing?"
Jiang Xiaolou let out a sigh: "It's not for nothing, you must do something for me."
Wang Heng looked at Yinzi, then at Li Xuening, and his heart sullen: "Wang Heng dare not follow the instructions of the young lady! As long as my wife is settled, I will do whatever you say!"
Jiang Xiaolou blinked, and Li Xuening took the initiative to step forward and helped the woman out of the house.
Jiang Xiaolou said: "Think about it, this is very dangerous, and it is possible to lose your life."
Wang Heng had already settled his heart. He gritted his teeth and said: "Miss, I am not afraid of anything. Originally, I did evil with my conscience for the sake of silver. Now with these silvers, the two of them can live a good life, and I will beheaded. willing."
Jiang Xiaolou said: "Then, everything must be done according to what I said, and there must be no slight difference." After she said that, she told Xiaodie: "Take the things out and return them to him."
After a while, the copper pot filled with kerosene was picked up. When Wang Heng saw it, he was shocked and said: "This...this is..."
Early the next morning, when he heard that Li Xuening was unwell, Jiang Xiaolou left the matter and went to visit. As soon as I walked into the room, I saw Li Xuening dressed in clothes about to sit up from the bed. Jiang Xiaolou quickly held her and said, "Since you are uncomfortable, why don't you hire a doctor?"
Li Xuening smiled and said: "It's just an old problem. Some didn't sleep well. Why bother Doctor Fu and make him bother so much that I can't get it."
Jiang Xiaolou stared at her and blamed: "What is this! Doctor Fu is a doctor who sees a doctor. If all the patients are like you, wouldn't he have no business?"
Li Xuening was struggling, with a smile in her eyes: "Doctor Fu comes to see me every day, not just to see you. This disease is not going to be diagnosed for one or two days, and his leg will not be broken."
Jiang Xiaolou was startled: "Since you are so transparent about everything, why don't you take care of yourself? You have to worry about me."
Li Xuening smiled, but suddenly coughed, his face was slightly red from coughing, and she covered her chest and could not speak. It was so easy to cover her mouth with a veil, and she gasped slightly: "It's really just a small problem. You have too many things on your hands. You should set off now. Don't delay because of me."
At this moment, Huai'an drove away and rushed to the painting building. When he reached the steps, the maidservant on the corridor stopped him. Huai'an was panting, and he was very anxious, but he went straight into the painting. Go, I can only say loudly: "Go and tell Miss Jiang, something big has happened!"
After listening to the maid, she hurried in her feet and looked anxious: "Miss, Huai'an, who is next to the young master, ran back and said that it was Boguzhai who was walking in the water. The northeast wind was blowing outside, and even the shop next to it was burning Now, the fire is huge!"
Jiang Xiaolou was taken aback, and immediately got up: "Go!"
Along the way, sitting on a sedan chair, Jiang Xiaolou quickly headed towards Boguzhai. As soon as I got off the sedan chair and looked up, the entire sky seemed to be burnt red, shimmering brightly, dazzling people's eyes. People greeted each other and ran in the direction of Boguzhai, and the figures kept shaking and overlapping, dancing like ghosts.
Before Boguzhai, the air was filled with a scorching smell, a thick nose pricked, and the pavement was like a huge fire dragon, burning from bottom to top. The fire ball kept rushing upwards, making a loud crackling noise. The entire three storeys of storefronts were billowing with black smoke and the flames flickering. It quickly burned down to the crooked skeleton, and from time to time a piece of wreckage fell down. There was a raging flame. Familiar faces turned black and looked at each other. The shopkeeper and the guys yelled, yelled, cried, stomped their thighs, and some people stood upright, completely suppressed by the fire. When the shopkeeper saw Jiang Xiaolou, he cried repeatedly: "Miss, what the is going on? Suddenly it caught fire." His face was black and gray, and his whole body was extremely depressed.
The fire is too big, not to mention Boguzhai, even countless shops around it have been affected. The wind blows on the face is fiery, the ground is fluttering burning objects, sparks are flying in the sky. Because it was the morning fire, and someone else witnessed everything happening by accident, and the warning was timely, no one was trapped in the fire, but everything in the shop was left on the fire. Many people were holding buckets in their hands, desperately trying to rescue these shops from the raging fire, but they could not stop the raging fire.
The whole street seemed to be lit by fire, and one family after another was hit hard.
From the beginning to the end, Jiang Xiaolou just watched this scene quietly. There was no angry expression on her face, let alone the fear that the sky was falling. She just watched, her eyes focused, strangely bright.
