The story of a noble girl

Chapter 195
Young Master Zhou said proudly again: "I'm the best at picking people, I'll help you palm your eyes."

"Then thank you, Master Zhou." Lin Xiaoning said with a smile.

"I'll go to the Yamen in a while, and you're all out, so I'll let that mistress take care of Qianli?" An Feng asked.

"Okay, you can arrange it. By the way, where is Wang Zai? I haven't seen him since yesterday." King Ning asked Lin Xiaoning.

"I went to play by myself, he is very playful." Lin Xiaoning replied.

King Ning suddenly remembered something: "This guy, when he took us to look for you, he brought us to a deserted mountain hinterland. An Feng asked An Feng to dig out a stone. It was like a treasure, and then he gave it to me."

"Stone?" Lin Xiaoning suddenly remembered the stone that Wangzai had found in the space at first.

Then he asked, "Did you lose it?"

"No, it's kept in the house. When you turn back, you can ask him what the origin of this stone is, and see if you can find any clues. Only you can understand his squeaking."

Lin Xiaoning smiled: "You must be disappointed, there must be no background, Wangzai has always liked weird stones, and I like them too, you are not allowed to lose them."

"It turned out that he liked it. This Wangzi took us to that place. It didn't look like a normal route. It took a long detour to get to the Taoist temple. We spent so much time looking for you, this is the one. It's caused by playful guys. Your own fox, the thieves and the thieves, are all manipulated by you, so don't blame us." Ning Wang laughed.

"You want to avenge your grievances." Lin Xiaoning laughed. She really wanted to laugh more coquettishly, but she was embarrassed.

"Let's go, let's go to the street." When King Ning said this, his expression became a little silly again. Lin Xiaoning only felt close, very close, and his eyes became dazed.

"Let's go," Ning Wang smiled, then lowered his head and whispered to Lin Xiaoning, "Don't keep looking at me like this."

Lin Xiaoning's heart skipped a beat, and it made her feel uncomfortable, she felt extremely embarrassed, and rolled her eyes.

Ning Wang stared at her and smiled without saying a word.

The sky changed overnight, and the temperature in Yu County dropped a lot, and the sky was a bit cloudy and gray.

The people on the street are all wearing jackets, and some poor families are still wearing single clothes, but they don't feel cold when they carry them on their shoulders and hands.

"The people of Yu County are concentrated in an alley on North Street. The most famous person is a woman named Chopsticks." Young Master Zhou said proudly.

Chopsticks had high cheekbones, a wide mouth with a gold tooth, and a thick, thick voice.Listening to the words, I just feel that this person is very positive.

Why is it called Chopsticks Po, what allusion, no one asked.

Seeing King Ning and Lin Xiaoning and their party, Chopsticks hurriedly came out of the courtyard to greet her, her eyes sparkling, as if she saw the light of the silver flower.

"Young masters and ladies, are you going to buy people? I have all kinds of people here, and they are clean and smart, so bring them out for you to see?" The chopsticks greeted enthusiastically loudly, "If you want to talk about Yu County, except for my chopsticks. , no one does better than me, and is more famous than me, why? Just one thing, be kind and conscientious..."

King Ning and Lin Xiaoning almost burst out laughing, a matchmaker dares to say that she is kind and conscientious!
Chopsticks is very talkative, babbling about how she treats those who are going to be sold kindly with her conscience, and never deceives the buyers, and has established a country that no one else in the county can shake.

"At least [-]% of the servants of the big families in the city are bought from me." The chopsticks woman said firmly.

Young Master Zhou was very interested in the person in the chopsticks woman's hands, looked him up and down and said, "Then let's call it out and have a look in the courtyard."

"Yes, yes, young master, please wait here for a while," said the chopsticks woman with a smile on her face, her golden teeth gleaming.Take them to a grape arbor on the side of the compound, where there are tables, chairs and tea sets, and they are also cleaned very clean.

After a while, the chopstick lady came out, followed by a group of people, and then they consciously stood in two rows in the yard, one row of women and one row of men.

Young Master Zhou was surprised and said: "You really treated them kindly. These people are all wearing jackets, their faces are not ashamed, and they are not starving."

Indeed, the people waiting for an unknown fate in the courtyard seemed to be well-trained, standing up straight, wearing jackets, some didn't fit well, some were old, some were patched, but they were all clean.

The chopsticks woman smiled and said, "My old lady has lived almost half her life and has been a toothmaid for more than ten years. She has a great reputation in this industry. How can she lie. My son, you are a person who understands at a glance, and is a person who does great things. See if you are satisfied."

"Jiafu, Tiaocha." Seeing such a scene, Hehua said very naturally.

Jiafu stared at a boy at a glance. The boy was taller than Jiafu and held a straw grasshopper in his hand. Jiafu stared at the grasshopper. The boy looked at Jiafu staring at him from a distance, and immediately With a flattering smile all over his face, he put the grasshopper in his palm and motioned for Jiafu to hold it and play with it.

Jiafu walked over, picked up the grasshopper and looked at it back and forth for a long time, then suddenly asked: "Are you... a mouse?"

The boy looked at Jiafu suspiciously.

"You are a mouse." Jiafu said, this time it was an affirmative sentence.

"You are..." the boy thought distressedly.

"I'm a slug..." Jiafu said excitedly.

"Ah—" the boy screamed, "Hold my family portrait, are you a slug? You really are a slug, it's you, you're not dead, ah—"

"Ah——" Jiafu also screamed: "Mouse, why did you come here, and how did you get betrayed."

It turned out to be an old acquaintance?
Lin Xiaoning and Ning Wang and his party were sweating immediately.

The Chopsticks lady was also in a daze. How did the person who was sold know and seem to have a good relationship with the young master of the rich family?
The boy named Mouse put down his family portrait: "Slug, slug, it's really you, you're really alive and well, my God, you're so handsome now, have you become a young master?"

"Yeah, I'm the young master now," Jiafu walked over holding the mouse's hand and said, "Mouse, this is my second sister, this is my brother-in-law, this is Sister Hehua, this is Master Zhou, this is Brother Fusheng .”

"Hello Miss, Hello Young Master, Hello Miss He Hua, Master Zhou, Master Fu Sheng..." The mouse immediately called one by one, yelling flatteringly, bowing after each call.

Lin Xiaoning was at a loss, King Ning said with a smile: "Things of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. Jiafu's friends are very clever."

Master Zhou said cheerfully: "Jiafu, you are really a blessing, you can bring blessings to others, so you can also meet old friends."

Who knows, the mouse knelt down and kowtowed: "Miss, uncle, young master, can you buy us all? Jiafu, there are iron heads and chicken feathers in the back room. They are sick and can't get up in the back room." , It was supposed to bring us into the city to work, so that we could have enough food and clothing, and some money to earn, but in the end, we were kidnapped here."

"Where are Dasha and Xiaosha?" Jiafu asked.

The mouse lowered its head: "Dasha and Xiaosha died of a stomach upset last year. There are only three of us. We thought you too..."

Jiafu looked at Lin Xiaoning expectantly: "Second Sister, can I have three, iron head and chicken feather, I will buy it with the money you gave me from your own house..."

"All right, all right, as many as you want." Lin Xiaoning responded repeatedly, you are the fourth young master of the Lin family, you can have as many people as you want, and they will be yours from now on.

Chopsticks smiled and said: "How do you call this? It's a great fate. The young master and this child were playmates before. It's a good thing, a happy event."

King Ning asked with a heavy face, "Mrs. Chopsticks, how do you buy people from traffickers?"

The chopsticks woman didn't change her face: "Miss, you don't know something. I know that the people who sold them are human traffickers, but I also know how many of them are. They are beggars in a town a hundred miles away and have no relatives. I If they buy it, they can find a good master for them, and they will have two meals in the future, and the wind and rain can stand up. If they don't buy it, they will only end up being taken by human traffickers to do that shady business, or sold to the poor. Working as a coolie in a kiln, such a small boy will die within a year or so, tell me, son, am I being kind and conscientious?"

King Ning was bumped and fell silent.

Lin Xiaoning and He Hua were also silent.

Master Zhou and Fu Sheng laughed secretly.

"What about the other two, take us there." King Ning said.

"In the back room, they were sick when they bought it. I even gave them money to buy soup and medicine, but nothing got better. Alas, let me just say that I am a bodhisattva. If I were someone else, I wouldn't be sick at all. Buy soup and medicine with silver, consider it unlucky, throw them in the suburbs and let them fend for themselves. Then they will still be wronged by the young lady to this day." The chopsticks woman babbled, leading everyone to a big room.

The room was dark and autumnal, with poor lighting and an unpleasant smell. The floor was covered with straw, and two people were lying in the corner.

The chopsticks woman said again: "I have arranged two houses here. Men and women live separately. If you change to another family, they all live together. The people in my hands are all sold to good people. The rules start from me." I have to start talking, young master and miss, tell me, am I being kind and conscientious?"

The mouse dragged the family portrait and hurried into the house, yelling: "Iron Head, Chicken Feather, look who's here, it's a slug, the slug is not dead, and has become a young master, and bought us all."

Lin Xiaoning followed, and King Ning, Master Zhou and others also entered the house, and Master Zhou even sneezed a few times when he entered the room.

The two boys lying in the corner looked older for a year, probably about fourteen or fifteen years old, and one was younger, probably smaller than the family portrait. There were two bowls beside them, and there was a black residue on the bottom of the bowls. concoction.

Hearing the rat's voice, the older boy closed his eyes and murmured in a low voice, "Slug? It disappeared a few years ago, isn't it dead?"

"He's not dead, he's not dead, brother Tietou, open your eyes and see, he's coming." The mouse said eagerly.

Jiafu squatted down: "Brother Tietou, Chicken Feather, I'm a slug, I'm not dead, I'm going to cure you all, go home with me, I will eat meat every day, a big piece of braised pork, take a bite, It's oily all over my body..." Jiafu said with tears.

　Roll for pink tickets!In addition, I recommend my friend Pang Pangdou's article "The Story of the Vase". The introduction: He said: "You are in charge of being beautiful like a flower, and I am in charge of making money to support the family." She obediently made a beautiful vase.He said: "Let's break up, because you are just a beautiful vase and can't help my career." She cursed this wolf-hearted man to be killed by a meteor.A meteor hit her, and when she woke up, she gained superpowers.Hmph, what happened to the vase, I want to prove to you that a vase is also worth a vase.She started a strong counterattack.
