Chapter 57

Although it was really bizarre, but Xiao Miaoxian's tone was sincere, and she even looked forward to it, it really didn't seem fake.

Jian Baisan also believed it, and made an agreement to wait until tomorrow morning, when she came back to work, and for a while later, she would live in the Gongzhu Pavilion.

After all, this is for the benefactor of the job, Jian Baisan said: "I just heard that Mrs. Miaoxian is not feeling well. If you want to go back to the Gongzhu Pavilion, I will take you back. The night is cold and cold, and this place is remote."

Xiao Miaoxian was stunned for a moment, and said: "No need, you are a girl too! And... I still have some things to do, you go first!"

For some reason, Jian Baisan could hear a hint of joy in this voice.

But think about it.It is also a good thing to go out for a walk under the excuse of being unwell.

Jian Baisan said goodbye to her, and after asking people and relying on memory along the way, finally arrived at the end of Baini Lane.

Before entering, Jian Baisan heard crying inside.

After a pause, she opened the door anyway.

Li Laishun's crying stopped.

Jian Baisan stood at the door with arms folded, and said, "I found a job, and I will do it tomorrow. Please take care of me these few days. You buy me the spirit stones for food flowers, and I will return them to you when the time comes." .”

Rhubarb ran over and stood at her feet.

Li Laishun lowered his head and said, "You...you don't live here..."

"It's too far from here." Jian Baisan said concisely.

When she closed the door back, Li Laishun plucked up the courage to run over again, grabbed the door, and said, "I, I didn't leave you on purpose! I didn't want to sell you either. I really went to find my sister!"

"Don't...don't hate me, I'm sorry..."

He stuffed something into Jian Baisan's hand, and it was warm and delicate to the touch, and icy cold, "This... My sister lost it several years ago, and I came to find her... This is the proof! My sister also has it." Half a dollar, I really came to find my sister!"

It was probably a round jade pendant, divided into two halves, and the fracture was rough to the touch.

However, do you want to go to the brothel to see your sister?It doesn't make sense.

Jian Baisan returned the jade pendant to him, and said goodbye politely.

Li Laishun stood at the door, holding the icy jade pendant in his hand, looking at Jian Baisan's back for a while, and looking at her knife for a while, feeling blocked and uncomfortable.

Since the death of his adoptive father, he hasn't lived a popular life for a long time. With so many debts, he thought that he would spend his whole life rolling in other people's boats.

He thought it was an opportunity this time, but in the end the opportunity was lost by himself.

There is no news about my sister...

Jian Baisan's back had disappeared, he closed the door, hid the jade pendant again in a small hole in the corner, stared blankly for a while, ready to sleep.

Tomorrow, there is another day's work.

……

On the other hand, Jian Baisan settled down in the small room dedicated to servants and maids in the backyard of the Gongzhu Pavilion.

It may be because washing clothes in winter hurts the body, and most of the clothes used by young ladies are of good material, so they cannot be hammered with a hammer, but can only be rubbed one by one by hand, so the wages here are very high.

In one month, there are thirteen spirit stones.

After doing it for two months, Jian Baisan felt more relaxed.

When washing clothes by the river during the day, some older girls and daughters-in-law would often come to see her doing laundry, often saying things like "Young people are full of anger" and "Look at their work."

The day before seemed to be some kind of banquet again, Jian Baisan did laundry until night.She was about to leave when she heard Xiao Miaoxian's footsteps again.

Xiao Miaoxian should be entertained by guests in the Gongzhu Pavilion at night, and she is not allowed to go out, but Jian Baisan can always hear her passing behind him while doing laundry at night.

There are not too few people coming and going, but Jian Baisan is a practitioner after all, with excellent hearing ability, he can hear it immediately.

Today's footsteps came from far away, but they were undisguisedly hurried, but they were light and heavy, as if they had sprained their feet, and she could still hear her calling someone's name twice.

What is "Pei Lang".

...Moreover, there were two footsteps in total.

Behind Xiao Miaoxian was another irregular footstep, very heavy, belonging to a drunk male.

When Xiao Miaoxian saw Jian Baisan, she rushed over as if she had seen a savior, and grabbed her arm like a life-saving straw: "There...someone is following me..."

Jian Baisan put his hands on the knife, and Da Huang barked wildly in response to the situation, and the man was finally frightened away.

As a result, Jian Baisan was dragged in through the secret door in the backyard by Xiao Miaoxian who was still in shock, and finally sat in her room.

There was a smoker burning in her room, which was very warm.

Xiao Miaoxian's maid, Qiuniang, knew she was back, and wiped her face with a hot towel, but didn't ask Jian Baisan any more.

Xiao Miaoxian hugged the bedpost with one hand, and pulled Jian Baisan with the other, and after a while, she slowed down and let go.

Jian Baisan thought about it, and felt that this was an opportunity, and said: "I have learned martial arts since I was a child, and I have a skill. You pass by the river every night. If you need, I can be your guard. Give me more than a week. I only need two spirit stones. Under the foundation, I should have no opponents."

Unexpectedly, this sentence made a big mess.

After listening to her words, Xiao Miaoxian was staring at her blankly, but the maid, Qiu Niang, grabbed Xiao Miaoxian and said anxiously: "Miss, you told me that you went out at night to talk with Mrs. Yi from Chunxiang Tower. Talking about poetry, she waits downstairs in the carriage every day, how could the lady pass by the river?"

Xiao Miaoxian came to her senses, hesitated and couldn't speak.

"Could it be that you met that Pei again! Oh, my lady! Don't you know that Mr. Zhang is interested in you? The spirit stones are all ready, and he is waiting to take you home! If this If it gets out, what should I do!"

Xiao Miaoxian picked the bed sheet and said: "I don't like Mr. Zhang. He beats people. I heard Pei Lang say yesterday that the last lady he ransomed home died..."

"Then why don't you like that Pei!" Qiuniang said anxiously, "He even has to save the Lingshi for a night for a year! If you follow him, what a happy life you will have!"

"His name is Pei Congqing!" Xiao Miaoxian's voice rose and then fell again, "He...he is very nice..."

"He is very considerate. If I can follow him, I wash my hands and make soup, and have children for him, and I am willing."

Under Qiuniang's stare, Xiao Miaoxian said weakly: "Redemption, he doesn't need to worry about the spirit stone for redemption! Over the past few years, I have saved a lot..."

Qiuniang stomped her feet and walked around the room twice in a hurry, not knowing what to say.

Glancing at Jian Baisan, he suddenly realized: "Wait, what did you just say?"

"I said, give me two spirit stones a week, and I will be able to protect Lady Miaoxian and ensure that she will not encounter such dangers as today."

"No, it's not," Qiuniang's eyes widened, "The latter sentence!"

Jian Baisan said: "I have no opponent under the foundation establishment."

Actually more than that.Her Mountain Jade Butterfly is a seventh-level spirit beast with the strength of a low-level golden core, and can be driven by a single thought.

"You, you are an immortal cultivator? Then why do you look for a job everywhere, and also wash the clothes for the lady, doing such a lowly job..."

"I'm short of spirit stones," Jian Baisan said, "If that master Zhang really cares about human life like that, if you give me enough spirit stones, I can kill him too."

"But...how can a cultivator..."

Jian Baisan realized it, and slowly frowned, "Why can't cultivators be disabled? I also know other cultivators who are sick, but strong."

For example, Luo Xiaoyu.

"I want to know, why does everyone in this city think so?"
