Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 935 The Prefect's Wife (3)
"Xiao Li, I know you. Chun'er often talks about you. You are lucky."

Mrs. Zhao didn't answer directly, she smiled lightly, her eyebrows and eyes were soft, she didn't look old, and under the light of the oil lamp, her face was flushed with a girlish blush, "Chun'er was in the capital, thanks to your care. , our family can't count on it, Zhao Wanqing is cruel, and your sister Chun'er is also in a difficult situation, so don't blame her."

It all happened a long time ago, Qingli chose to forget it, and now Zhao Wanqing has turned into a bone of bones, it doesn't make much sense to mention what happened back then, but from Mrs. Zhao's side talk, Qingli is sure of one thing, At that time, she saw Sister Chun'er and Bei Tangyan under the tree, so they should have seen her too.

Even cousins ​​could be silenced, but she was left behind. Qingli felt that Zhao Wanchun was not to blame for concealing it. When it came to fame, every woman would be very cautious, especially Beitang Yan had a special status.

"Madam, do you go to Yuta Temple to offer incense? In such a cold weather, it is easy to catch wind and chill when sitting on a sliding pole."

Qing Li didn’t want to go to Yuta Temple again, there was a secret way in the Zen room there, because of the secret way, she was arrested by the perverted Yu Wenkun, so she didn’t believe that the monks there would be ignorant, maybe they were accomplices, In order to find out this clue, a hapless guy from Chunyu's secret guard organization was sent to become a monk and became an undercover agent of Yuta Temple.

It's been a while, and that person hasn't sent back any useful information, so Qingli will feel very strange when mentioning Yuta Temple.

"Oh, you should know about Chun'er."

Mrs. Zhao sighed, Qingli is famous in the north, and any ordinary people who are pulled out will know that she is in the back house, and often hears about Qingli's benevolent deeds, and appreciates it very much. The other party is Chunyu's fiancée, no wonder Maybe he didn't know anything about the war, and the fact that the Great Qin general Bei Tangyan eloped with his own family, Chun'er, couldn't be hidden from those who cared.

Chun'er is usually very well-behaved, smart and kind-hearted. No one would have thought that getting married would be so difficult. Seeing that she is still in her twenties and hasn't married yet, she always finds various reasons to refuse her engagement, and once even did it at the expense of herself. The body resisted, Mrs. Zhao wiped her tears, the pain came out of her stomach, she wanted to satisfy her daughter as much as possible, otherwise the two of them would not be able to live.

Zhao Zhifu always wanted to climb high, because Chun'er was born well, and there were soldiers who were willing to get married. She asked someone to inquire, and the only son of the other party was a worthless prodigal son, so this marriage failed despite her strong opposition.

Mrs. Zhao's natal family was an ordinary businessman. Because of her good life, she was favored by the prefect Zhao. She broke through the shackles of the concept of family status, and finally married her and became a regular wife.But it's not easy to be the main wife. Every time I go to the capital, she is the one who is often ridiculed, because her background is not good, she is not so noble, her family is just an ordinary cloth merchant, and she came from a small place. A prostitute is incomparable.

Over time, there was a gap between her and Zhao Zhifu. Mrs. Zhao wanted to find a safe family for her Chun'er. The Great Qin general hooked Hun'er away.

"Well, I heard that the day Miss Chun'er left, she ran into my maid."

Since Mrs. Zhao mentioned it on her own initiative, Qingli told the story of Mai Ya being taken captive because she found out that the two had eloped. Sister Chun'er is a kind person and she should be grateful for not killing people to silence her. It was closed for two or three days, and there was no danger.

"And other things?"

Mrs. Zhao's eyes were wide open, and she wanted to sit up, but got up in a hurry, her body softened, and she lay back down again, but she startled the nurse next to her, "Madam, when you think of it, call the old slave, you I just fainted, where is the strength coming from?"

There was a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine in the carriage, and there was a small porcelain bottle of pills on the table. Mrs. Zhao was weak for more than a day or two. Qingli could understand the worries of a mother. Where did Sister Chun'er and Beitang Yan go? Everyone doesn't know, and I think they have to suffer a little bit along the way, but I hope Beitang's words will remain unchanged, so let's protect Sister Chun'er.

It was getting late, and Mrs. Zhao's carriage broke down halfway. Qingli asked her mother to support her and got into the first carriage of her family. She accompanied, Mai Ya, Yu mother and the maidservant in Tsing Yi to the back of the carriage. Because of the maid's rudeness, after Madam Zhao learned about it, she solemnly apologized to Qingli.

"Ma'am, before Sister Chun'er left, was there any sign?"

Qing Li rested her chin on her cheeks, her mind kept running, Zhao Wanchun and Bei Tangyan were close, maybe they might not know any secrets, especially where Daqin's secret way was, this was the key, Sister Chun'er's temperament would not To put it bluntly, it may be manifested indirectly.

"Well, if there are signs, I will be able to see them. The problem is that there is no problem. Dongmei has been with her for so many years, and she has been kept in the dark. That maid was sad for a long time. Later, I made the decision and gave her a deed of prostitution. A family affair."

According to Mrs. Zhao, everything was as usual except that sister Chun'er gave Mrs. Zhao a set of custom-made jewelry on her birthday.The two of them are not in the same yard, and they can only see her in the morning and evening when they are calm. Sister Chun'er has a quiet temperament and does not socialize with others, and there are no good sisters in Pingyang.

"So, where is Dongmei now?"

Although there was little hope of finding out anything, Qingli decided to give it a try. If there was any clue, she couldn't just miss it. Dongmei was a good candidate, and she must know something by following Zhao Wanchun.

"It's in the Hutong in the north of the city. The man she married is a small merchant who opened a small workshop to make sesame oil."

The carriage soon arrived near Daying in the north of the city. Qing Li got out of the carriage and replaced the maidservant in Qingyi who was in the second carriage.

At the gate of the barracks of the army in the north of the city, a row of soldiers stood. The weather was extremely cold, and all of them were tightly wrapped. They wore hats and masks on their heads, leaving only a pair of eyes. The soldiers on duty and patrol wear them alternately, down to the knees. The shoes are a pair of thick cotton boots, which can resist the wind, and they can stand in the snow for a long time without frostbite on their feet like in previous years.

"Who! What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"

When the soldiers saw the carriage stopped, they immediately formed a group. Only then did Qingli realize that she had changed the carriage and the driver. The soldiers did not know each other, so there was a misunderstanding.

"it's me."

Qingli opened the thick door curtain, and got out of the carriage with the support of Nanny Yu and Mai Ya. Seeing that it was her, the soldiers immediately changed their expressions and smiled, "Young Madam, why are you here? .”

"Yeah, haven't you returned to Fengyang for the New Year yet?"
