Chapter 116

"Brother Xiao also has doubts about her?"

"It's hard to say, but she came here just to thank her benefactor. I think it's too fake. First, you saved her and left her money.
Second, no matter what, I still have a few pennies in my hand. It is okay to take a drop-in bus during the day, but I just want to stay at your house when I come so late. If you are soft-hearted,

Maybe I’ll buy her because she’s pitiful, or send her away by giving her some things and some money like now, I feel that she has no sincerity at all, just come here to go through the motions, find out the truth, and get some property by the way.”

Ji Kang, who was about to open his mouth to speak, stopped immediately after hearing what Xiao Jian said, and he almost owed him again just now.

"The first time I rescued her, I thought this girl was pretty. She didn't look like an ordinary person in the village. If she was knocked out, she wouldn't look like that.

But the doctor in the hospital said that she was starving and fainted, tell me, how can such a pretty girl, a character from all over the world, run out of food at home to such an extent?"

"I will send someone to investigate this matter"

"Well, then there is Mayor Lao"

Joe wiped his mouth with a handkerchief after eating the noodles, "There is one more thing, you didn't see it"

"what?"

"You look at her with a girl's hairstyle, but she is no longer a girl, her body is already broken"

Xi'er's eyes flickered, "Is she a woman?"

"Yes, it's a woman, a girl, and you can tell from the way you walk."

"Then we have to investigate carefully to see what kind of person she is and what purpose she has?"

Shopkeeper Xu and Shopkeeper Su looked at each other, "Is there someone behind this woman who wants to get an idea of ​​your workshop? There are already people imitating your production in the market."

"Hmph, let's make their dreams come true."

"Be careful, nearly a hundred workers are pointing at you to eat."

"Well, thank you for your concern"

It was already getting late, shopkeeper Xu and the others left one by one. The hot pot meal, which was supposed to be a good meal, was over halfway through.

Ji Kang came to Xi'er's room and sat on the edge of the Kang with his head half down.

"My lady, is she really trying to harm our family?"

"Regardless of whether it is true or not, you must not have the heart to harm others, and you must not have the heart to guard against others. You must have a bottom line in everything you do, and you must not blindly save and help others."

"Isn't brother very useless?"

"No, you are very smart, but you are too soft-hearted and have little knowledge. There are many wolves in sheep's clothing in the officialdom, and there are many such people in life. It is hard to guard against.

If you can't guard against it, then set a bottom line for yourself, such as Qiyuan County Magistrate, be a pure minister, not accept gifts, not participate in any banquets,
Although he has offended many people, at least he will not get involved in any right and wrong, even if something goes wrong, the emperor will investigate now, he and his family can rest easy."

"Be a pure minister?"

"Yes, think about what a pure minister is, but you are still a scholar, you should think about it, what kind of person should you be?"

"I really should think about it"

"Then go back to your room, I'm going to sleep through the door"

Seeing Ji Kang leave, Xi'er frowned. To be honest, she wasn't very attracted to this man, and he wasn't her ideal husband candidate.

After getting along for so long, there is only a little good impression, but that good impression was also consumed by that stumbling.

I really don't know how my relationship with him will be when I grow up, alas, let's take one step at a time.

On the second day, Qiao's sent a girl to invite Xi'er.

She came to Qiao's resting room, gave her coat to the girl, rubbed her hands, patted her body, and waited for the coldness on her body to dissipate before she moved closer to the child to have a look.

"Gain fat, skin is whiter"

"It's been more than five months, and I can sit and climb by myself. If no one is watching, it won't work."

"Where's your son?"

"I'm reading in my own room. It's cold, so I didn't ask him to help out in your shop. He likes this little sister. He comes to see her every day."

"Having sons and daughters is enough"

"I also want to give the Xiao family a few more children. The Xiao family's heirs are weak. If I have the ability, I will give birth as long as I am pregnant."

"What did you call me for?"

"Look at me, I forgot the business. The guards sent the girl back yesterday and left. They stopped on the official road and sent one of the guards back to the village. They found a family and spent some money to inquire about it."

"Is it true?"

"Yes, there is nothing wrong with what she said, but the more this is the case, the more suspicious I think she is"

"Forget it, I don't want to worry about that woman, no matter what tricks she plays, I won't let her get close to Luo's house"

"You'd better be careful, she can't get your family's ideas, and it will be bad if she gets your ideas in charge of things."

"Understood, then I'm leaving, I still have something to do at home, so I can't stay with you any longer"

"Um"

When she got home, Xi'er took out a book from the space and read it. After reading for a while, she put down the book and tapped her fingers on the table.

Such a small person is not worth the effort to deal with, but what if it brings trouble to the family in the future?
Forget it, let's go there at night to see what kind of monster she is.

The days in the northern winter are very short, and after dinner at night, she found an excuse early and fell asleep.

It was still snowing outside, she didn't wear night clothes, but a silver cloak, quietly left Luo's house, and went straight to the place called Jingkou Village.

As soon as she entered the village, she was confused. When did there exist such a wealthy village in Pingyuan County?

Although the house was covered with snow, she could see clearly that every house was a brick house?Haven't heard of anything famous here?

Xi'er performed the lightness kung fu of stepping on the snow without a trace, and searched every family in the village.

As long as the lights were on, she went to check, but she never found where the girl was.

Just as she was about to leave, she found a house without lights, and suddenly the lights came on. She leaned over curiously and hid under the window of that house.

A familiar voice made her curl her lips. Compared with her who was wronged, helpless and pitiful at home, she now sounds particularly coquettish.

"Dong Lang, I'm thirsty and want to drink water!"

"Jiyue, let brother feed you mouth to mouth, okay?"

"you are so bad!"

"If it wasn't for you, would that house be built with bricks and tiles? If it wasn't for you, they would all starve to death. If you are so strict, I won't be going back tonight. They will be so mad."

"Okay, that's my family after all, and they're doing it for my own good"

"It's almost the Chinese New Year, do you want to vote again?"

"No, that family is good, I don't want to cheat them anymore"

"The rich don't have many good things. Their money comes too easily. If we don't cheat, we have to let other people in the village cheat."

"But the reputation of the Luo family is so good that the people especially guard them."

"It's just to create a false reputation. If the Luo family is really capable and distributes all their property to the people, it's just a big one to the small one to earn a good reputation."

"I don't want to go, I want to go with you"

"My dear Yueer, if I can get her family's prescription, I can sell it for a good price, and we will have no worries about food and clothing in the future."

"They don't even recognize their life-saving grace, just to prevent me from entering their house, how do you let me get in?"

"Based on your appearance, you can't hook a big head, but can't you hook a small head?"

"You mean you want me to go to Yangliu Village to seduce the steward of her family?"

"Let me tell you, a lot of people are staring at Luo's family now. If we get her family's prescription, someone will definitely buy it at a high price. I have inquired about it. The head manager of Luo's workshop is Yang Mu. Just go and hook him up, that yellow-faced woman in his family must be far worse than you."
