Chapter 188

The Jia family started a new life in this way. Jia Silian and her younger sisters set up a stall as usual. Jia Youchuan went back to the cloth dyeing workshop, but Zhu Shi was idle. She was better than Xiang Shi, washing and brushing every day. Cleaned up inside and out, and she cooks three meals a day, which made the sisters feel more relaxed.

Jia Silian lost her heart to Jia You, so according to what she said before, she divided half of the money from the stall to Jia Jincheng, and the rest was divided into four shares, one for each sister and brother, and one share for Jia You. I just waited for him to come home at the end of every month to pick it up, but I never visited him again, even if Jia Jincheng ordered, the sisters did not go either!
Speaking of running a noodle stall business, although it is tiring, it is still earning money. After staying in May and entering June, when the weather became hot, the sisters began to sell ice drinks. Because of their previous experience, this ice drink It's easy to make, and a lot of tricks have been added. The business of selling noodles is a little bit worse, but the business of ice drinks is much better.

In addition, there are many wealthy families in the inner city, and there are also many ice sellers. There is an ice seller at the entrance of Gujing Hutong, which saves the sisters a lot of trouble. They don’t have to go all the way to buy ice like last year. Thinking of the fingers in the ice shop last year, when Mou Biao came over later, she asked about it, and Mou Biao said,

"The ice shop has changed hands now. I have had people stare at it for more than half a year. Seeing nothing unusual, I withdrew the staff..."

Speaking of this, I suddenly became alert,

"Why... someone came to trouble you again?"

Silian shook her head,

"Our place is Jinyiwei's territory, who dares to come here to trouble me, just ask when I think of it..."

Only then did Mu Biao feel relieved,

"I've been thinking about this matter, but I don't have the slightest idea. I'm also very strange!"

Silian Road,
"Even if they don't come looking for it anymore, maybe it's over. I'm usually near my home, and no one will come to trouble me..."

Mou Biao nodded, and the two of them covered the matter, but they didn't know that there were some things that were unbearable to talk about. Not two days after the two of them said this, a troublemaker came to the stall.

This person is a middle-aged woman with an ordinary appearance, the kind you can't find in the crowd. She is wearing a green cloth and coarse cloth, and she wraps her head with a green cloth. There are wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and the skin on the back of her hands is also He is very rough, wearing a pair of muddy shoes that are no longer visible, with a bundle beside him, with such a dress, it looks like he is coming from outside the city, and it is far from the capital. of foreigners.

This middle-aged woman ate noodles at the noodle stall for three consecutive days. She ordered the cheapest plain noodles, served with a plate of dried tofu that was given by the stall, and she poured the endless dried tofu into the palm of her hand. Seeing her like this, Jia Silian knew that she was the master who didn't have much money, so when she cooked noodles for her, she purposely added half a bowl more, the woman looked at the noodles on the table, deeply Glancing at her carefully, he spoke for the first time,

"Little girl, you are kind... Aren't you afraid of losing money if you do business like this?"

Jia Silian laughed and said,
"However, if you have half a bowl of noodles, how can you lose it? I see that you have come from a long way. It's not easy in a foreign land. Only when you have a full stomach can you have strength..."

The middle-aged woman bowed her head and did not speak any more. She ate like this for two more days. On the third day, she did not come during the daytime. After dark, the sisters were about to close their stalls, so she was late. Jia Silian greeted her and said,

"Ma'am, I'm late today, but I'm hungry, shall I cook you a big bowl?"

The woman nodded, and sat down and waited for Jia Silian to serve her. While eating, she watched the sisters pack up their things. When Jia Wulian and Liulian entered, Jia Silian came and sat down, and asked her with a smile,

"Ma'am, does this side suit your appetite?"

The woman nodded, and Jia Silian chatted,
"Ma'am, where did you come from? Did you come to the capital to seek relatives or to do business?"

The woman looked up at her and said slowly,
"I'm looking for someone..."

"Oh... Who is Madam looking for?"

In this capital city, there are really many foreigners who come to look for people every day. There are parents looking for children, wives looking for husbands, husbands looking for wives, and some family members who have been disaster-stricken and come to seek relatives. It is said that the business of helping people find relatives is very prosperous.

The woman answered,
"I came to look for my husband. He came to the capital to do business. He went out for a long time and didn't come back. There was no news. I came to look for him..."

Jia Silian enthusiastically said,

"Have you found it, ma'am? If not, there are people who specialize in this business. I know where they are. Why don't you show me tomorrow?"

The woman shook her head slowly,
"Don't ask others..."

After all, put down the chopsticks and raise your head,

"Why don't you tell me, where did my husband go?"

Jia Silian was taken aback for a moment,
"Ma'am... how do I know where your husband is?"

The woman looked at her with strange eyes,

"You know..."

Jia Silian felt something was wrong, she sat up slowly,
"What did the aunt say, I...why don't I understand!"

He was about to get up while talking, but unexpectedly the woman across from her was like lightning. In the blink of an eye, Jia Silian grabbed Jia Silian's hand that was placed on the table before she took it back. The woman's hand was like a man's, with very thick fingers. The skin of the palm is also very rough, holding Jia Silian's hand is like iron tongs, and Jia Silian can't break free with Jia Silian's strength. Jia Silian was startled and was about to scream when she saw the woman stretch out her other hand , picked up the chopsticks on the table, and poked it down lightly, the chopsticks immediately and silently poked into the table, and with another light tap, the chopsticks leveled the table.

Jia Silian's eyes widened in surprise, only to hear the woman whisper,
"I want to kill you. It's easy to kill your family. You won't be known. If you don't want to kill yourself, just yell loudly!"

Jia Silian immediately shut her mouth, bit her lip and stared at her for a while, then replied,

"Come to me if you have anything to do, don't implicate my family!"

The woman looked at her and smiled,
"It's a bold one!"

and asked her again,

"Where is my husband?"

Jia Silian shook her head helplessly,
"Who is your husband? I have never met him. How do I know where he is?"

The woman stared at her,
"You've seen his..."

"I have seen……"

Jia Silian recalled carefully, and shook her head for a while,

"There are so many people coming and going at my stall every day, how can I remember?"

womanly,
"He is not an ordinary person. He can fly over the roof and walk over walls. He is highly skilled in martial arts. When he was young, his throat was cut by his enemies. When he spoke, his voice was extremely low and hoarse..."

When she said this, Jia Silian immediately knew who the husband she was talking about was.
"Ma'am, you really found the right person, I do know where he is..."

After a pause, he asked again,
"Ma'am, how do you know I've seen him?"

The woman said,

"We have our own way to communicate between husband and wife. I saw the secret mark left by him at your place..."

Jia Silian's eyes widened, and she thought to herself,

"I heard from Xiao Lin earlier that the man died in Jin Yiwei's prison. I thought he was disconnected just like that. I didn't expect...his wife was found..."

While secretly thinking, I have already figured out how to deal with it.

So he nodded and said,
"Ma'am, I have indeed seen the person you mentioned. Does he have many potholes on his face..."

Jia Silian described the person's appearance, and the woman nodded eagerly and asked,

"You really saw him, where is he now?"

Jia Silian looked left and right, leaned over and pointed to a corner of the eaves in the distance where the eaves were raised and asked,
"Ma'am, do you know that this is Jin Yiwei's yamen?"

The woman nodded and said,

"I didn't know it before, but I figured it out after staying here for three days..."

Jia Silian said,

"A while ago, your husband was eating noodles with us. I heard his voice was special, so I took a few extra glances, so I fell in love with it. Later, someone robbed the prison in Fusi, Nanzhen, and there was a lot of commotion. We are nearby. Hearing the noise, I went to watch the excitement..."

She was talking, gesticulating, and the woman let go of her hand without knowing it, and listened carefully to her words,
"Afterwards, I saw a man standing on the top of the wall, with two wings growing out from under his arms, covering his head, flying around on the wall, like a bird..."

She made a gesture of flying, the woman nodded,
"That's his family's unique Gale Wind Wing, what happens after that?"

Jia Silian said,

"Afterwards he started fighting with Jin Yiwei, and I saw him jump off the wall, and then he didn't come up again. Later, I heard that he was caught by Jin Yiwei's people!"

"Caught it?"

The woman frowned and murmured,

"He is so strong in martial arts, even if he can't beat him, he can still escape. How could he be caught?"

Then he turned his head and glared at Jia Silian,
"You lied to me!"

Jia Silian's eyes widened, and she said innocently,

"What did I lie to you for? I don't know you well. What's the benefit of lying to you?"

The woman asked again,

"How is he now?"

Jia Silian shook her head,
"I don't know, but most of the people who have entered the imperial prison have no good fruit to eat..."

The woman bowed her head in thought for a long time, did not speak, got up and threw the copper coin and hurried away. Jia Silian sat there and waited for her figure to disappear, then she slumped her shoulders and breathed a sigh of relief. When I came out, I saw only a few mouthfuls of noodles on the table, and wondered,

"Then why did the guest leave without finishing the noodles?"

Jia Silian forced a smile,
"Maybe there is something urgent!"

After all, I hurriedly urged my sisters to clean up the stalls,
"Clean up quickly, I see it's going to rain today!"

The younger sisters packed up their things and went in. Before Jia Jincheng came back, Mrs. Zhu had already prepared the meals. Jia Silian said,

"I'll go and see if Dad is back..."

After saying that, he turned around and ran away. When he got to the gate of the yamen to inquire about Mou Biao, the guard at the gate said,

"The young master has gone out of the city on business, I'm afraid he will come back very late today!"

 Hey hey hey!Have you been surprised?
