Kuai Chuan: The villain became my plug-in

Chapter 30

Gu Nian followed Gu Qingyue to stay at Ci'en Temple for one night, and only left for home the next day.

On the way back, Gu Niancai sat down from the edge of the window when he saw Ci'en Temple in sight, from the majestic building to a small dot.

Stepping through the iron shoes, there is nowhere to find it, and it takes no effort to get it.

After Gu Nian's temptation, the abbot of Ci'en Temple is a person who fully meets her requirements.

With superb medical skills, it is impossible to be an undercover agent arranged by the second wife. The most important thing is that Master Kong seems to be an old acquaintance with Gu Qingyue.

But there are more things that can't be found out in a while.

Another day, Gu Nian clamored to go to the street, but Gu Qingyue couldn't hold her back, so she ordered her servants and Xiaoxi to take Gu Nian into prison when she went out.

The street was crowded with people, Gu Nian jumped out of the carriage, followed by Xiao Xi, looking around all the way, rouge and makeup, what girl doesn't like such a lively long street?

While strolling around, Gu Nian quietly ran away alone while Xiao Xi was not paying attention.

……

"Hey, kid, are you going to sell yourself?" Although Gu Nian was ten years old, but wearing gold and silver jewelry, standing in front of the little boy, just from his appearance, he could tell that he was from two different classes.

The little boy was barefoot, in ragged clothes, kneeling in a disheveled face, with a grass sign on the ground, thin and small, with two eyes that looked extraordinarily large on his shriveled head.

"Yes, Miss, you can buy me, I eat very little, and I can do a lot of work for you, and it's not expensive, just one or two, please, buy me..."

The boy knelt on the ground pitifully, kowtowing to Gu Nian.

He knew that he was too young, just when he could eat, no matter how good he said, his age was not convincing at all.

People can't even look down on him, whoever makes him unable to do heavy and tiring work now.

Many people came and went, seeing his age, they shook their heads and left.

Gu Nian became his only hope!
The family is rich and doesn't know the sufferings of the world. Only this kind of lady can buy him.

Gu Nian helped the little boy up and said, "Stop knocking, I'll buy you."

In ancient times, human trafficking has become commonplace, but Gu Nian felt a little awkward when he said this sentence from his own mouth.

It seems that what I buy and sell is not a human life, but a livestock. Life here is so contemptible, and the gap between the poor and the rich is like the sky.

Gu Nian pulled up the little boy and touched his body, with a rare expression of embarrassment on his face, he just ran away and forgot to take some silver.

He reached out and touched his head, took off a headdress inlaid with pearls and handed it to him, "There is a pawnshop over there, you go and pawn it, you can pawn it, and then go to the front one Pastry shop, I'll wait for you there."

Gu Nian watched the little boy, who was less than one meter tall, run to the pawn shop, then turned and walked towards the pastry shop.

It's even better if you come back, if you don't come back, the loss of a pearl hairpin can be regarded as saving a life.

Using a pearl hairpin to test a person is the method Gu Nian has to use.

A little girl, even if she is full of knowledge, in ancient times, is just a bargaining chip for her marriage. Who is willing to accept her nonsense?

Adults may not be more reassuring than children sometimes.

The scorching sun was shining, and the air was filled with the sweet smell of pastries. Gu Nian looked at the pedestrians coming and going, but did not find the little boy.

Just when she was about to give up, the child appeared at the street corner, with blood overflowing from the corner of his mouth, and his ragged clothes were shredded into rags, hanging on his body, bruised and purple, limping towards her.

"I'm sorry, master. I went to the pawn shop. The man saw that I was... in shabby clothes. He wanted to take away the pearl hairpin you gave me, and also sent... to the official. I was delayed for a while. I'm sorry..."

The little boy handed the broken silver in his hand to Gu Nian, lowered his head, his frail body shaking slightly in the cold wind.

Tears rolled in Gu Nian's eyes, and he said in a choked voice, "It's okay, I'm your master now, I'll take you to buy some clothes first."

Gu Nian took the child and walked towards the tailor shop.

She only remembered to ask the child now: "What's your name? Where are your father and mother?"

"My name is Zhang Xiaofeng. My father is dead, and my mother is also sick now. The doctor said that my mother has a cold, and one prescription of medicine will cost twenty lines. There is no way, so I thought about selling myself and changing it. After that, I waited on the street for several days before I met you, master." After finishing speaking, Zhang Xiaofeng knelt on the ground again and kowtowed to Gu Nian, who looked at Gu Nian anxiously: "Master, can you Can't let me go back to see my mother first, she drank a bowl of water in the morning, I want to find a doctor and show her again..."

Gu Nian nodded, and followed the little boy, turning around, and came to a small alley. Among the wooden houses, a thatched house was particularly conspicuous.

Pushing open the gate of the courtyard, in the cold wind, a few pieces of thatch on the roof were rolled up in the air. When I got closer, I saw that it was not a house. To be precise, it should be a shed built with thatch, but with a few extra walls. .

The pots, pans and pans in the thatched hut were exposed outside, a broken mat was spread on the floor, and a few broken quilts were placed on it, and Zhang Xiaofeng's mother was lying in the torn quilts.

"Mother? Wake up, the doctor is coming soon, and you will recover soon!" Zhang Xiaofeng used his thin body to protect his mother from the biting cold wind.

He was naked, trembling in the strong wind.

Gu Nian didn't know how much the mother and son had suffered without his knowing.

"Xiao...feng? You...back...back, cough cough cough, where did you... get... money? Cough cough, mother is sick, I'm afraid... I'm afraid, it won't look good, Cough, cough, cough..." Xiaofeng's mother was coughing terribly.

Gu Nian stepped forward and touched her forehead, the scalding hot temperature surprised Gu Nian.

With the development of modern medicine, although fever is a very common thing, the complications caused by fever are different. If she does not cool her down as soon as possible, something may not happen.

Gu Nian didn't even think about it, and ordered: "Xiaofeng, go and get some warm water for your mother, the more the better, then go to the wine shop and buy the strongest wine."

The flame in the stove was strong, and the water was gurgling in the pot. Gu Nian sent Zhang Xiaofeng to buy spirits. She mixed the water with a cracked pottery bowl, and poured several bowls for her one after another.

He wetted it with the handkerchief he was wearing, and wiped the other person's body over and over again. Now he only hoped that the physical cooling could quickly bring down the other person's body temperature.

After waiting for a while, Zhang Xiaofeng ran back quickly with the flagon in hand, watched Gu Nian's movements, and imitated his mother's forehead, neck, and armpits with alcohol.

It took a full hour before the temperature of the other party's body dropped, and the doctor rushed outside.

Seeing that it was getting late, Gu Nian gave all the broken silver in his hand to Zhang Xiaofeng, told him a few words, and left with his deed of sale.

The two agreed to meet at the tailor shop on Changping Street in Dongshi City five days later.
