The reborn emperor, you are dismissed

Chapter 138 Distress
"Meng Huai, come and try this rouge." She was going to rub some pink on the cheeks of her maid.

Meng Huai dodged and begged for mercy: "Miss, don't want it, this servant finds it weird..."

"What's so strange, Menghuai has to go out often now, and everyone says that you are the second shopkeeper of Chunfenglou, how can you always look up to the sky." Su Yingchun put down the box in her hand with a smile, turned around and asked, "Is there any suitable for me?" What does this sister use?"

"Yes, yes, this girl has fair skin. Although her eyebrows and eyes are a little dull, if the rouge and water powder are used well, it can add a lot of color."

In the end, Menghuai couldn't hold her back, the two picked and picked, bought a lot, and asked the servant to send them back to Su's residence first.

After all, it is a woman, Meng Huai is naturally happy when thinking of those various exquisite boxes.

"Miss, are you hungry, let's go eat something."

The Spring Breeze Building was not too busy today, so they slipped out for a stroll.

"I want to eat... ah, there are sesame cakes for sale over there!"

Meng Huai looked in the direction she pointed: "Miss, you are greedy for snacks."

"It's really delicious!" she highly recommends.

Meng Huai said helplessly: "Slaves go buy it, there are too many people."

At this time, she accidentally caught a glimpse of the shop sign next to her, and said, "There is a book store here, and I just want to buy a few."

"That's fine, the servants will go inside to look for you later."

After the master and servant made an appointment, Menghuai went across the street to buy cakes, while she raised the curtain of the bookstore and walked in.

I have never been to this place before, and after a rough look, I found that the layout is different from other places.

There is no sense of clutter piled up like a mountain, and the layout is very elegant, and there is a small table for a tea.

On the table was a strange carved wooden ornament, resembling an eagle with outstretched wings and a fish.

"Miss, what book do you need?" A middle-aged man approached him with a pleasant smile. He had the kind of gentle appearance that could easily make people like him.

"Hmm... any anecdotes?"

"Of course there are." The man picked a few books for her, ""The Story of the Pillow", "The Legend of Lie Yi" and "The Zhou Ji of King Mu."

She flipped through the pages: "Is there anything else? I've read these two books, but I don't like the other one very much."

The man smiled, and just about to say something, the small door on one side was suddenly pushed open, and a man who looked like a buddy hurriedly approached and whispered something in the man's ear.

The man nodded, and when he looked at her again, his smile deepened: "Miss is really lucky, a few new copies of this book have just arrived, and they will definitely satisfy you."

The guy went inside, and came out again shortly afterwards, holding a brand new bound book in his hand, with three words "Qi Yi Lu" written on the blue cover in thin gold script.

She took it and read two pages, and found that it was really interesting, so she happily said, "I want it, what are the other ones?"

The man smiled and explained: "This is a set of books. Miss has Volume [-], Volume [-] and Volume [-]. They won't arrive until tomorrow. Why don't you leave me an address, and I'll ask the assistant to deliver it to you."

She said briskly, "Okay."

After paying the deposit and making an appointment, the man said again:
"It might be a little later, Miss, wait a minute."

She said it was okay, lifted the curtain and walked out contentedly, and almost bumped into Meng Huai who was holding a sesame cake.

"Hey, Miss just bought one copy?" It was really unexpected.

She took the cake, and while biting it, said: "There are two more, and the staff at the bookstore will send them to Chunfeng Building tomorrow."

The sun was in the west, I bought things and tasted snacks, the servant drove the carriage over, and the two decided to go back to the house directly to rest.

This place is about four or five streets away from Su Mansion, and the carriage is traveling on the bluestone road, which is a bit bumpy.

Su Yingchun wiped her hands with a cloth towel, and couldn't wait to open the newly bought book.

"Miss, don't you feel dizzy?" Meng Huai looked at her with a smile.

"return……"

Before the words came out, suddenly the coachman's loud roar came from outside:

"Be careful! Get out of the way—!"

Immediately afterwards, the horse neighed, raised its front hooves in fright, the carriage rushed forward, the head of the carriage suddenly tilted up, and all the sundries in the carriage immediately fell backwards, before even a time to exclaim, Su Yingchun was crushed Throwing it high, she subconsciously reached out to grab something, when an equally slender arm firmly supported her shoulder.

Menghuai held the window of the car with one hand, and held onto her own lady with the other. Without thinking about it, her body arched in an incredible arc, and she used her strength to rush out from the car curtain, and tapped her foot in mid-air, which was about to fall apart. The carriage brought Su Yingchun over to the open space beside her.

In fact, they could land on the ground unscathed, but when they got close to the ground, Menghuai relaxed his limbs, boom!The two rolled in a circle and hit the wall.

"Ah!" She cried out in pain, covering her back.

But the pain was not serious, and it subsided quickly. She settled down and looked to the side. Meng Huai was hugging her left leg and humming.

"What's wrong with you?" She panicked, and hurriedly crawled over to try to pull up her trouser legs to check.

"No, it's okay, it should be sprained." Menghuai waved her hands, sat up on support, and took a breath.

Seeing that the other person's face gradually returned to normal, as if it was really not serious, she slowly let go of her hanging heart.

"Hey, little girl, you guys are so lucky, the carriage turned over like this, luckily everyone is fine." A kind old lady approached, "There is a medical clinic in front, go and see where the injury is. "

"Okay, thank you."

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"

"You damn child, what are you running around, let you run around! Look at the trouble you caused!"

Not far away were the cries of children and the beating and scolding of women.

She and Menghuai looked at each other and helped each other to stand up.

It happened in an instant just now, and she was thrown out of the carriage in a daze. Now that she saw it, she realized how "tragic" the scene was.

The two frightened horses had been driven aside by the coachman, the carriage was tilted at the intersection, the window lattices were smashed, and trivial things were scattered on the ground.

And the "culprit" - a four or five-year-old child was crying loudly, his clothes were scratched in several places, and he must have fallen down too.

The woman dressed as a woman is holding the child by the ear with one hand, and slapping the thin body vigorously with the other.

"Let you be disobedient! Kill me!"

She sighed, walked over and said slowly: "Stop beating."

As soon as the woman saw her, she burst into tears, pulled the child to kneel on the ground, and kowtowed a few times:
"I'm sorry, miss, it's all my fault. I didn't discipline my son well. Don't sue the government, please!" He hurriedly took out two ingots of silver coins from his pocket and handed them over, "I don't know enough Compensation, but there is only so much at hand..."

She didn't know what to say for a moment.

Although it was true that it almost caused a catastrophe, whether it was her or Meng Huai, it was possible that she or Meng Huai would be seriously injured, but... after all, none of this happened, and she didn't care when it came to compensation.

In the end, it took a lot of effort to convince the woman that she really didn't want to sue the officials, and she wouldn't pursue it.

Kneeling down and touching the child's head, she said seriously, "You can't run around anymore, look at that sister's leg, it was hurt because of you, it hurts a lot."

The child tilted his head and asked, "Does it hurt more than when I fall?"

She couldn't help laughing: "Yes, so you have to remember."
