118 First Kiss
On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, He Youbao went to pick up He Shusheng early in the morning, but he came back alone.He Youbao said that He Shusheng was going to prepare for the boy's exam in autumn, and he was going to take the exam in more than ten days. He wanted to stay in the school and study hard.
Anxiu feels distressed, but is very satisfied with He Shusheng's progress.The long-term workers in the family have a day off today to go back to celebrate the holiday.There are three people whose hometowns are far away, and it takes a day to come back, so they didn't go back at all. They sent letters a few days ago to pick up their wives and children today.
Early in the morning, there was an ox cart pulling a large cart of women and children.Aunt Xu told Anxiu what she meant.Anxiu thought about it, caught six live chickens, two for a family, and sent them over in person.These women had never seen the world, and after knowing that An Xiu was the boss, they spoke a little cautiously.
Seeing them like this, Anxiu didn't want to sit still, so she gave some casual advice and then went home.
At noon, He Youbao went to deliver the ceremony in person.After An Xiu stewed the duck, he packed it in a jar and delivered it to He Shusheng himself.His school is only half an hour away from home by bullock cart. In this kind of weather, ducks are not easy to break.
Anxiu visited He Shusheng's school last year when he sent him to school.There are no major changes, but the school's gate has been repainted on one side, and the mottled places have been completed.The door was closed tightly, and after knocking for a long time, the servant opened the door for her.
Anxiu held a porcelain jar in her hand, said to look for He Shusheng, and gave some money to the janitor.The housekeeper was very happy, and warmly guided Anxiu, leading her around the backyard, and arrived at He Shusheng's dormitory.
A row of small adobe brick houses reeked of mold and urine, disgusting.
The servant stood at the gate of the courtyard and shouted: "He Shusheng, your wife saw you coming!"
As soon as he finished shouting, Anxiu heard movement in the third room in Dongtou, and He Shusheng hurriedly opened the door.Seeing An Xiu, she couldn't say a word.
The students all went home for the holidays.They were originally elementary school students, except for He Shusheng, no one planned to take the exam for scholar this year, and they didn't work hard and spent their days leisurely.He Shusheng was the only person in the dormitory, so he was very lonely.
"Xiu, why are you here?" He Shusheng was so shocked that he didn't know what to say, he just looked at her stupidly.
An Xiu slapped him on the back of the head, and said with a smile: "Silly boy, why are you so dazed? If you don't go home during the holidays, why don't you allow me to come and see you?"
He Shusheng's face turned red.
When An Xiu entered his dormitory, he smelled a strange smell, disgusting.There is the smell of smelly socks and shoes, the musty smell of the quilt, and the bad smell of food.Anxiu pinched her nose: "Shu Sheng, where is your dormitory? It's clearly a garbage dump!"
"What?" He Shusheng asked in confusion.
"The whole house smells bad, can't you smell it?" Anxiu kept fanning his air, hoping to speed up the air circulation.When I came in, I saw that there were two beds and two desks in the dormitory.One was from He Shusheng, and the other was from a roommate.The beds for the two of them were all dirty and messy!
For the next half of the afternoon, An Xiu helped He Shusheng clean up.After sweeping the floor, doing laundry and washing quilts, a wooden basin was filled with black dirty water.Anxiu sighed: "When you are admitted as a scholar, I'll find you a teacher and study at home. You will suffer in the school!"
"Xiu, in fact, I used to like to be clean, but I've been too busy recently, and I have to go to the examination room in a few days!" He Shusheng explained awkwardly.
Anxiu didn't disturb his study, and let him carry the porcelain jar to the side to read and eat while he cleaned up the courtyard by himself!He Shusheng disagreed, he insisted on staying beside Anxiu and helping her with her work.Anxiu had no choice but to let him go.
After working for more than an hour, his waist was sore, and the smell of He Shusheng's small room was gradually driven out, and the air became pure.
Anxiu stretched her waist, sighed, and said with a smile, "It will be more comfortable to live in this way. You study hard, and I'll go back first!"
He Shusheng suddenly became nervous and stood silent.
Anxiu thought that he was reluctant to leave by himself, so she rubbed his hair with a smile: "There are still a few days before the autumn exam. After the exam, go home and rest for a few days..."
Before he finished speaking, He Shusheng suddenly came over and pecked lightly on her lips.
Anxiu was stunned for a moment, and looked at him in astonishment.He Shusheng lowered his head, his face turned red, he didn't dare to look at Anxiu.
Anxiu looked at him carefully, and found that he was already as tall as herself. Although he was still very thin, he had lost his childlike immaturity like last year, and became like a half-grown young man.All the students in the school knew that he was married, and they were afraid that they would gossip about the couple's bed in private.
After listening too much, He Shusheng naturally knew what should be done between husband and wife.Anxiu feels that sexual enlightenment is very important, and he can't let others teach him badly, and he should be a guide.
Thinking of this, he hooked He Shusheng's neck and kissed his lips slowly.There was some cool air between his lips, Anxiu slowly explored bit by bit, and taught him, the sweet tongue penetrated into his mouth and stirred, He Shusheng's back suddenly tightened.
After a while, An Xiucai let him go, and said with a smile, "Don't learn from them. If you want to know something, I will teach you when you get home! Study hard in school, do you hear me?"
He Shusheng not only blushed, but also the roots of his ears were red, he nodded mechanically and said yes.
On the way back, An Xiu was a little distracted.The ancients matured precociously. Although He Shusheng was only twelve or thirteen years old, he was a half-grown young man in this age.Farmers need labor, and boys get married late.If it was a young master in the city, at this age, there should be several servant girls.
So it shouldn't be surprising that they understand these things.Just thinking of these, Anxiu always felt strange, and couldn't tell what it was like.
When I got home, it was already half afternoon.There was a carriage parked at the gate of the courtyard, Anxiu was stunned for a moment, and stopped the cart.Hearing the movement, the people inside rushed out: "Boss, you are back, Boss..."
It turned out to be Ling Erhu.He was sweating profusely and his face was dusty.Anxiu's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly asked what's wrong.
"Boss, something is wrong with our rice!" Ling Erhu knelt down in front of Anxiu with a thud, tears streaming down his face, "Boss, our rice is poisonous, and several households have eaten it to death."
Anxiu only felt her eyes go dark, and after a while she was shocked and asked what was going on.
"I had two bags of rice the day before yesterday. The smell was very strange. I was careful at the time. These days I was inquiring about a shop on East Street, and I wanted to rent it out to open a semicolon. I got a little brow, and sent a message, so I followed. I took a look. When I came back, the two bags of rice had already been sold. At noon, a family said that several people died in the family. They didn’t know if they ate our rice and wanted to report to the authorities. I hurriedly Running over from the back door to inform you!" Ling Erhu knelt at Anxiu's feet, talking hastily.
Anxiu swayed for a while, and was about to help Ling Erhu up, when someone shouted: "It's terrible, it's terrible! Officers and soldiers are coming to our village!"
Ling Erhu's complexion turned pale immediately, and before Anxiu could speak, he got up by himself and grabbed Anxiu's arm: "Master, he must have come to look for us, you go first, I'll go back to the yamen with them!"
Anxiu shook off his hand, and said sharply, "Erhu, if something goes wrong, you must calm down first! What's the use of running away?"
As soon as the words were finished, the sound of crackling official boots was heard. A large group of officers and soldiers, followed by spectators from Hejiazhuang, walked towards the courtyard of Anxiu's house.
Leading the way in front of the officers and soldiers was a clerk from Anji Mipu.Although he didn't recognize Anxiu's house, he knew that she lived in Hejiazhuang, so he brought officers and soldiers all the way to ask her.Seeing Anxiu and Ling Erhu at the door, the clerk hurriedly pointed at them and said, "Master Guan, it's them two. The woman is our boss, and the man is the shopkeeper!"
The leader of the yamen servant waved his hand, and the other officers and soldiers couldn't help but put iron locks on the heads of Anxiu and Ling Erhu.
Everyone in Hejiazhuang took a deep breath and asked what happened to Anxiu.When He Youbao and He Yuer heard the movement, they also ran out to watch, startled by the situation in front of them.
He Youbao's feet were weak, and his voice was crying: "Master Guan, what's going on? Xiu, what did you do?"
"Father, it's okay!" An Xiuwu smiled to himself, "It's just a misunderstanding!"
"Misunderstanding?" The head catcher sneered, "Your rice shop sold poisoned rice, which killed three families and nine people. What misunderstanding are you talking about!"
Only then did the people in Hejiazhuang know that there was a rice shop in Anxiu's county seat, and they were immediately noisy.Some people were worried, and hurriedly asked if they had made a mistake; some people had long been disgusted with Anxiu's prosperity, and gloated at his misfortune.He Youbao softened his hands and feet, quickly grabbed the head catcher, and knelt down in front of him: "Master Guan, please do me a favor, my girl will not do anything illegal, this must be a mistake, please do me a favor." OK!"
"Father!" Anxiu's voice became hurried, her heart ached, and she shouted at He Yu'er who was beside her, "Yu'er, help Dad back!"
He Yu'er ran over to help He Youbao up, but she was too small to drag him.
The head catcher threw He Youbao away at once, causing him to fall backwards: "Is it a mistake? I don't care if I say it, but the county master!" After finishing speaking, he ordered his servants to lock up An Xiu and An Xiu. Ling Erhu, I want to take it away.
"Master Guan, please do me a favor, let me have a word with my father-in-law and sister-in-law!" An Xiu also begged.
The head catcher gave her a cold look and told the yamen servants to let her go.With the shackles around Anxiu's neck, she ran up to He Yuer and He Youbao, and said in a low voice, "Yuer, there is money in the third cabinet in my room, and the key is with me. Quickly untie it. After taking the money, first Go beg Third Young Master Huo to see if there is any way to protect me, let's talk about it later!"
He Yuer hurriedly stretched out her hand, untied Anxiu's key, and nodded cautiously.
"Xiu..." He Youbao wanted to speak, but was interrupted.The yamen servants escorted Anxiu and Ling Erhu again, and went to the county seat.
Laifu suddenly ran out, followed behind all the yamen servants, and kept calling Anxiu.
Anxiu can't look back at it, but can still talk to it: "Laifu, go back and erase everyone's memory. Don't feel sorry for my father!"
"Anxiu, the man walking in front is the traitor of Zhao's Rice Shop. He committed the poison. You have to find evidence. I will take the children to the county seat in a while and rescue all the dead. Don't worry, nothing will happen!" Laifu shouted.
Anxiu nodded.Glancing at the guy walking in the front, he vaguely remembered that he was recruited by Ling Erhu not long ago, saying that this kid was very shrewd and flexible.Unexpectedly, it turned out to be an internal response sent by someone with ulterior motives.
"Master Guan, can I say something?" Anxiu had silver on her body, but she couldn't get it out, so she had to beg the yamen servant who was escorting her.
The man said coldly: "No! Shut up obediently!"
"Master Guan, just a word! I have some broken silver in my pocket, you keep using it to drink!" An Xiu continued to beg.
Regardless of her being a woman, the yamen servant actually reached into her pocket and touched her. When he took out the purse, he even touched her.Anxiu was disgusted for a while, she looked at him directly, and remembered his appearance in her mind, so that she could settle accounts after autumn.
There were about five taels of silver in the purse, and the yamen servant gave the money to the headhunter.The head catcher glanced at Anxiu, implying that she could speak now.
Anxiu nodded with difficulty, and shouted at Ling Erhu who was behind him, "Erhu, is there a rice shop in Zhao's house in the county?"
The guy who was leading the way was in the wrong shape.
Ling Erhu hurriedly said: "Yes, it's a little across from our shop, it's a time-honored brand!"
"Before our shop came, was his shop the best business?" An Xiu asked again.
"Yes, Master!" Ling Erhu responded.
An Xiu smiled at the yamen servant: "Master Guan, I have nothing to say!"
When they arrived at the county seat, Anxiu and Ling Erhu were directly locked in the cell without interrogation, which surprised Anxiu and Ling Erhu a little.
After sending them to the cell, no one mentioned them, Anxiu and Ling Erhu were a little strange.If someone is killed, the two of them are the parties involved, so they have to go to court, right?
Anxiu had no more money on her body, so she couldn't help but ask the cell boss what happened and why the people died. The county magistrate didn't see them, but locked them up instead.Even if He Yuer went to find Third Young Master Huo, it would take some time, and she couldn't arrive so soon.
Mr. Huo San has arrived, they should not be locked in a cell, but released without charge!
The prison chief gave them a cold look, and asked arrogantly, "What's wrong with you two?"
Anxiu hurriedly explained that she was the owner of Anji Mipu.In such a big county, the death of nine people should be regarded as a major event, and there is no need for Anxiu to describe the cause and effect.
Hearing that this was the case, the prison chief's eyes lit up immediately, and his gossiping eyes gleamed: "I can only say that your luck is really good! Those people are all dead, and they are placed at the gate of the county government office. Chief Liao Before bringing you back, a Taoist priest came suddenly and led four or five wolf dogs. He insisted that these people were not dead, but just held their breath! I have a way to revive them. Naturally, the family members would rather believe it or not In the end, they all came back to life! Strange thing, everyone is dead, except for the one who performed the autopsy, and the rest are alive. Now the family members of the family blamed him for killing their family members, and there was a commotion Get up. How can the county lord control you?"
When An Xiu and Ling Erhu heard this, they jumped up for joy.
Ling Erhu was still rejoicing about his luck, but Anxiu's joy passed away, and he thought of a more realistic question: "Since we didn't kill anyone, why didn't we let us go? What does it mean to be put in a prison cell?" ?”
When Anxiu said this, Ling Erhu was stunned, turned his head around, and hurriedly said yes, the rice shop is still sealed.Since there is nothing to do, why not let him go?
No matter how they can't figure it out, if they are closed, they will be closed, and they will not let people go.After staying in the cell for about two hours, I heard the sound of the door opening.A few people came in and told the cell boss to open the cells of Anxiu and Ling Erhu.
Anxiu struggled to stand up.
There were four people who came, and the leader was the county magistrate wearing a black hat and official robes.Anxiu was stunned, and turned to see the handsome young man in white behind the county magistrate, and immediately understood.It turned out that Huo San personally came to pick him up.
The county magistrate walked up to Anxiu and hurriedly bowed to her to make amends: "The little official is stupid. He took the girl back by mistake and let the girl go to jail for nothing. Please forgive me! The little official can't make up for you." He made three bows.
The yamen servants quickly untied Anxiu's iron chain.
Anxiu moved her sore wrists and ankles, and said with a quick smile: "Master County Magistrate, you are too polite. Originally, I have something to do first, and you are just asking the public to enforce the law!"
"Okay, don't be polite!" Huo San smiled at Anxiu, "This cell smells bad, let's get out!"
After leaving the prison, it was already dark.Huo San took Anxiu and Ling Erhu out from the back door of the prison, and the county magistrate sent them all the way to the back door, still apologizing to Anxiu.Finally, Huo San said: "It doesn't matter, you are also reporting to the public. Go back and do your work, we can go by ourselves!"
The county magistrate then stopped and stopped seeing each other off!
Less than 500 meters from the back door, a carriage was parked, and several figures were pacing back and forth beside the carriage.In the dim light, a figure was vaguely seen, and a girl shouted loudly: "Father, it's Sister Xiu who is back!"
The figures beside the carriage are He Yuer, He Youbao and Huo Gui.
"Yu'er!" An Xiu shouted loudly.
He Yu'er screamed excitedly, threw herself into An Xiu's arms, crying and laughing at the same time.The corners of An Xiu's eyes were moistened by her, and she didn't know what to say.
He Youbao sniffed, and secretly wiped away tears: "Xiu, I heard that those people have come back to life, it is really blessed by the emperor, the ancestors are blessed! It is not our rice that harmed them! You are fine, dad, go back, a little Make offerings to the ancestors!"
Huo San saw that the whole family had let go of the big stone in their hearts, so he couldn't help but curled up his lips and said with a smile: "I've been tossing for hours, I'm scared, and I'm fine now! Are you hungry? Let's go eat something. I'm so hungry!"
"I treat you, I treat you!" Anxiu laughed hurriedly.If it wasn't for Huo San, I don't know how long it will be locked up.Even if you didn't commit a crime, once you're in the cell, it's not easy to get out.If you don't take off your skin, you have to spend a lot of money. This is an unspoken rule.
The ancient county yamen is not TVB's gangster film, there is no evidence that people must be released within 48 hours.They have no concept of time.Anyway, the cell is opened by the county government, and there is no uniform standard for how long the love will be locked up.
He Yu'er even said that she was hungry and wanted to eat!
Together, a few people found a restaurant and had a good meal.He Youbao didn't have much appetite, and still had lingering fears. Anxiu kept comforting him, persuading him to eat more, so he reluctantly ate something.
After dinner, Ling Erhu helped Anxiu find an inn, where they temporarily stayed.I definitely can't go back today.The rice shop was closed, and the accountant and the clerks were imprisoned. Huo San said that the clerks would not be released until tomorrow, and told An Xiu not to worry.
Anxiu said that she got it, and thank you, Third Young Master, for your trouble.
After He Yuer and He Youbao settled down, Anxiu and Ling Erhu went to the warehouse to have a look.Huo San also said to go, and their warehouse was also sealed. Without the official certificate, Anxiu and Ling Erhu couldn't get in, but Huo San could.Everyone in the county government knew Huo San, and no one knew that the county magistrate was a slave of the Huo family.
Anxiu said his thanks again.Huo San laughed again and again, only saying that there was really nothing wrong, and told An Xiu not to take it to heart.He Yu'er was his younger sister, and An Xiu was his relative.As a family, there is no need to thank each other.
******
When he arrived at the warehouse, Huo San stepped forward and asked the servants to open the door.The yamen servants let Anxiu and the others in without the slightest hesitation.
There are about tens of thousands of catties of rice in the warehouse, which Anxiu prepared for Ling Erhu's semicolon, and he said that he would ship some more in a few days.Now I don't know which one is poisonous and which one is not, so I may have to throw them all away.If it wasn't for those dogs today, Anxiu and Ling Erhu would have died.
But now that there is a commotion, the reputation of Anji Rice Shop has been completely ruined, Suqu County can't stay, and the results of Ling Erhu's painstaking efforts for several months have all been in vain.Anxiu and Ling Erhu feel distressed just as much, but just looking at these stocks, they don't have any clues!
"Can we find out who sneaked into our warehouse?" Ling Erhu said angrily, "God damn it!"
Anxiu didn't speak, and wanted to go back and ask Laifu how those people survived.Now that people can come back to life, is there any way to clean up Mili's poison?
"Er Hu, what's the name of the guy who led the way today?" An Xiu asked.
"It's called Jiang Laoer!" Ling Erhu said, "Master, what do you ask him for?"
"A casual question." Anxiu didn't answer Ling Erhu's question directly, and turned around to whisper in Huo San's ear, roughly meaning to tell Huo San to tell the county magistrate to torture Jiang's second child to see if he could get any results out of it.Under torture to extract a confession, I am afraid that not many people can bear it.
Huo San was puzzled, but still nodded.
The trial of Mipu's case will take some time. Anxiu, He Youbao and others have all returned home and asked Ling Erhu to stand by in the county seat to inform her of any situation.
Ling Erhu said yes, and told her to rest assured.
Anxiu had nothing to worry about. The rice shop was destroyed, and the rice had to be sold to other rice shops. It was just an extra layer of exploitation, and nothing was lost.Anyway, she didn't bother with the shop at all, it was all Ling Erhu's effort.
Laifu did not erase the memory of the people in Zhuangzi according to Anxiu's intention.It felt that these memories were not bad for Anxiu.She is rich and has a frightening dog. People can only respect her more and look up to her.
Money can form a bright halo behind people.Facing the circle of light, the people below cannot see the expressions and identities of the people in the circle of light clearly, they can only look up and worship.It can make Anxiu's identity more mysterious and unattainable.
The richer you are, the more others fear you, and the safer you will be.
Regarding Laifu's theory, Anxiu described it in two words: nonsense!
People in Hejiazhuang were talking about how much money did Anxiu earn from opening the shop?Why would it kill people?
Seeing that she was released, people were even more astonished. Even if she was wronged, she would not be able to come back the next day without any ability.
Everyone was even more curious about Anxiu.
Erbo's family didn't sleep all night.When they learned that Anxiu was kidnapped by the yamen servants with iron shackles, He Youbao and He Yuer had already gone to Youji to ask Huo San for help.The second uncle's family knew that Huo San was He Yu'er's adopted brother, and also knew that the Huo family's power should not be underestimated, so they guessed that Anxiu might be fine.
But still worried.
Mrs. Li asked He Youfu to go to the county early in the morning to have a look. He didn't know where he went astray. Anxiu's family came back, but the second uncle didn't come back.
Second Aunt, He Jiangsheng and the others heard that Anxiu had returned, and rushed to her house to ask about the situation in the county and what happened.
Anxiu cut the matter from the beginning to the end, and briefly explained it.
Erbo's family breathed a sigh of relief.
Huo San sent Huo Gui to supervise the county magistrate's handling of the case, and the case of Anji Mipu came to light five days later.Jiang Laoer couldn't bear the torture, so he confessed that the owner of the Zhao family's rice shop asked him to kill people.He also said that he just threw arsenic into those two bags of rice.
Jiang Lao Er firmly insisted that he had cast arsenic. As for why these people came back from the dead, he really didn't know.
The Zhao family is just a small businessman in the county town, spending some money on weekdays to curry favor with the county magistrate, thinking that the county magistrate will protect his family at critical moments.As everyone knows, his opponent is the head of the county magistrate.
Compared with his own black hat, the county magistrate is more willing to sacrifice the Zhao family.
That's how the matter was satisfactorily resolved.The Zhao family was fined several thousand taels of silver, and the shop was closed for two months.Huo San asked the county magistrate to take the opportunity to amass money. The county magistrate couldn't wait for it, so he confiscated a lot of things from the Zhao family and imprisoned their old boss for three months.
Not to mention the complete destruction of the Zhao family's rice shop, at least temporarily losing the ability to compete with An Ji.Originally, many rice shops in the county were going hand in hand with Anji, but after such a commotion, there was one less competitor.
Ling Erhu is good at creating public opinion.Jiang Laoer himself admitted that he had put arsenic in the rice, but suddenly a Taoist priest with a dog came out and brought those poisoned people back to life. This cannot be explained by common sense. Ling Erhu made up many legends by taking advantage of this. , buy beggars, storytellers, restaurant guys, and let them spread the word.
Within a few days, Suqu County was full of legends about Anji Mipu, and the more they were told, the more evil they became.
As a result, the common people in the county knew that the Taoist priest with the dog was the reincarnation of a god, and he came to Baoanji Mipu specially.The rice from Anji Rice Shop also has aura. Not only is the price reasonable and the quality is good, but it also has an air of air, which can bless the safety of the family!
When Ling Erhu came to report to Anxiu, he mentioned this matter by the way. Anxiu, He Youbao, and He Yuer laughed so hard that they couldn't straighten their waists. It was Ling Erhu's mouth, and black can be called white. , It's so nonsense that someone actually believes it.
Ling Erhu also smiled: "Even if I don't let people talk about it, others will guess. If the result of the guess is not good for us, thank you, I just spent a little money and made a big deal. My boss, Dongjie Branch No. I have already taken a fancy to the shop, and it will open in a few days, and with this wind, it just happens to start the business."
He Youbao sighed, looked at Ling Erhu and Anxiu, and said, "This is a blessing in disguise! Maybe you were destined to do this business, but someone else made a fuss, and not only lost all your belongings, but also paid for you! Made a good gimmick, this is life."
Anxiu and Ling Erhu thought about it, isn't this the truth?If it is said for no reason that Anji Mipu is blessed by God, and that Mi Neng’s house is safe when buying Anji, who would believe it?But now, everyone believes that the rice shop's business has been booming in the past few days. Anxiu has used her abilities many times to get grain out of the fields on the dam to fill the warehouse.
The Zhao family came up with a way to poison, and finally made a wedding dress for An Ji.
If you don't have supernatural abilities, don't do things that harm others and ultimately harm yourself.
Before leaving, Anxiu told Ling Erhu this truth, telling him to do business according to his conscience and his duty, and he should not cheat his heart for making money, or he would end up with a bad ending.
Ling Erhu nodded hurriedly, reassuring Anxiu that he was careful.
Huo San helped a lot with the rice shop matter, and Anxiu always wanted to thank him, but she couldn't find a suitable opportunity or think of a suitable thing.It happened that He Yu'er embroidered a hair embroidery and asked Anxiu to give it to Huo San, and asked him to show the old lady, and embroider a few more if he likes it.
Anxiu went to Youji and gave He Yuer's embroidery to Huo San.
The next day, Huo San came to the door in person and took An Xiu and He Yu'er to Huo's house as guests.
Both An Xiu and He Yu'er were stunned.
Huo San smiled happily: "The old lady is holding the hair embroidered by Yu'er. She likes it so much that she didn't even eat dinner. She kept looking at it and couldn't let it go. She fell asleep slowly after eating supper at night. Early in the morning So she asked me to go and show her the owner of this embroidery work."
He Yuer looked at Anxiu worriedly.Although Mrs. Huo had only met Anxiu a few times before, and her appearance had undergone some changes after years of hard work in the fields, her facial features were still very similar, and if she had a sharper eye, she would be able to spot it.
Mrs. Huo should have this vision.
But after thinking about it, Anxiu is already a dead person, others may just be the same as Huo San, surprised that the two look very similar, and would not speculate that the former person came back from the dead.
Thinking of it this way, my heart was relieved.He hurriedly agreed to Huo San and went to see Mrs. Huo.He Yuer thought that if she wanted to return to the capital, she would naturally need the appreciation and promotion of others. Otherwise, even if she was a peasant girl, even if she returned to the capital, she would not be able to be discovered by others, let alone climb to a high position.
The Huo family was her first springboard.
An Xiu didn't understand He Yu'er's mind, she didn't really want to go to Huo's house.There are always many rules in the big courtyard.She has never learned the rules, and she is afraid that she will be timid and make others laugh.
But seeing the excitement on He Yuer's face, Anxiu thought she wanted to see the world, and suddenly couldn't bear to disturb her interest. When he was in a dilemma, Huo San smiled and said: "Miss An, the old lady is very kind, and she treats everyone well." Good. In front of her, you don't need to pretend to be a lady, only your true temperament can attract the eyes of the old lady. Miss An is lively, which is what the old lady likes, so don't be restrained!"
Huo San persuaded from the side, and He Yu'er really wanted to see the Huo Mansion, Anxiu felt ruthless in her heart, at worst, she would go to the Knife Mountain, there was nothing to be afraid of.In the future, if you earn money by yourself, don't you need to socialize with such a famous family?It's better to go and have a look. Learning the rules is also a reward, so I immediately agreed.
"That's great, my carriage is outside, let's go now!" Huo San laughed.
He Yu'er groaned, and dragged An Xiu back to the room to change clothes.He Yuer's embroidered clothes are even more beautiful than those made of high-grade silk, and it can't be seen that they are ordinary silk at all.
But there is no jewelry in the house.Anxiu thought it was useless, so all the jewelry she got in the past was given away as favors!There are only two hostas left in the box.
When He Yuer saw the pink pearl, she thought of something, pinned the pearl with pink embroidery thread, and tied it to the jade hairpin.With such an embellishment, the hosta looks more delicate and refined.
"It's so beautiful!" Anxiu laughed, grabbed half of the hair on the top of her head, finished a small bun, and pinned it on the hosta.
He Yu'er saw that Anxiu was dressed like this, not only matching her clothes, but also her identity - the gentle Xiaojiabiyu was very distressing.He Yu'er imitated her appearance and rolled up her hair. The sister-in-law and sister-in-law were like twin sisters.
"Sister Xiu, we're so simple, isn't it rude? Why don't you put some powder on?" He Yuer asked.Anxiu has worked all year round, and although her skin is delicate and firm, it is a bit dark.If you apply grease and powder, it may be more beautiful and moving.
"Hey!" Anxiu immediately vetoed, "It's already black, but it's powdered, why not go to an opera?"
He Yuer burst out laughing.
The sister-in-law and sister-in-law came out of the room, Huo San looked at their outfits and was very satisfied.Delicate yet generous, there is a kind of freshness of a peasant girl.Accustomed to seeing the young ladies in the city dressed in gold and silver, Huo San felt that the old lady would like their outfits.
He Youbao happened to come back from the fields, and seeing their sister-in-law dressed like this, he was taken aback for a moment: "Xiu, what are you taking Yu'er for?"
Huo San hurriedly explained for Anxiu, and told He Youbao that He Yuer sent the old lady to embroider, and said that the old lady liked it very much and was eager to see He Yuer.
When He Youbao heard this, he smiled and said, "You can't go empty-handed when you go to someone's house, you should bring something with you!"
"Father, the third son's house has everything, how can we give it away?" Anxiu smiled, "If the old lady really likes Yu'er's embroidery, next time the embroidery is good, let's forget it this time."
When He Youbao thought about it, it was exactly this truth.Tell them to leave early, go early and return early.Huo San promised He Youbao that after lunch, he would send He Yuer and Anxiu back in person.
He Youbao said a few polite words, "Three sons have worked hard" and so on, then sent them to Zhuangzi, and told them to be sensible when they go to others, don't make others laugh, come back early, and don't worry about yourself.
Anxiu and He Yu'er agreed quickly, and followed Huo San's carriage to Huo's residence.This was the first time Anxiu entered the mansion, and she felt uneasy all the time.On the other hand, He Yu'er was much calmer than her, talking to the third young master, asking questions about this and that.

118 First Kiss
On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, He Youbao went to pick up He Shusheng early in the morning, but he came back alone.He Youbao said that He Shusheng was going to prepare for the boy's exam in autumn, and he was going to take the exam in more than ten days. He wanted to stay in the school and study hard.
Anxiu feels distressed, but is very satisfied with He Shusheng's progress.The long-term workers in the family have a day off today to go back to celebrate the holiday.There are three people whose hometowns are far away, and it takes a day to come back, so they didn't go back at all. They sent letters a few days ago to pick up their wives and children today.
Early in the morning, there was an ox cart pulling a large cart of women and children.Aunt Xu told Anxiu what she meant.Anxiu thought about it, caught six live chickens, two for a family, and sent them over in person.These women had never seen the world, and after knowing that An Xiu was the boss, they spoke a little cautiously.
Seeing them like this, Anxiu didn't want to sit still, so she gave some casual advice and then went home.
At noon, He Youbao went to deliver the ceremony in person.After An Xiu stewed the duck, he packed it in a jar and delivered it to He Shusheng himself.His school is only half an hour away from home by bullock cart. In this kind of weather, ducks are not easy to break.
Anxiu visited He Shusheng's school last year when he sent him to school.There are no major changes, but the school's gate has been repainted on one side, and the mottled places have been completed.The door was closed tightly, and after knocking for a long time, the servant opened the door for her.
Anxiu held a porcelain jar in her hand, said to look for He Shusheng, and gave some money to the janitor.The housekeeper was very happy, and warmly guided Anxiu, leading her around the backyard, and arrived at He Shusheng's dormitory.
A row of small adobe brick houses reeked of mold and urine, disgusting.
The servant stood at the gate of the courtyard and shouted: "He Shusheng, your wife saw you coming!"
As soon as he finished shouting, Anxiu heard movement in the third room in Dongtou, and He Shusheng hurriedly opened the door.Seeing An Xiu, she couldn't say a word.
The students all went home for the holidays.They were originally elementary school students, except for He Shusheng, no one planned to take the exam for scholar this year, and they didn't work hard and spent their days leisurely.He Shusheng was the only person in the dormitory, so he was very lonely.
"Xiu, why are you here?" He Shusheng was so shocked that he didn't know what to say, he just looked at her stupidly.
An Xiu slapped him on the back of the head, and said with a smile: "Silly boy, why are you so dazed? If you don't go home during the holidays, why don't you allow me to come and see you?"
He Shusheng's face turned red.
When An Xiu entered his dormitory, he smelled a strange smell, disgusting.There is the smell of smelly socks and shoes, the musty smell of the quilt, and the bad smell of food.Anxiu pinched her nose: "Shu Sheng, where is your dormitory? It's clearly a garbage dump!"
"What?" He Shusheng asked in confusion.
"The whole house smells bad, can't you smell it?" Anxiu kept fanning his air, hoping to speed up the air circulation.When I came in, I saw that there were two beds and two desks in the dormitory.One was from He Shusheng, and the other was from a roommate.The beds for the two of them were all dirty and messy!
For the next half of the afternoon, An Xiu helped He Shusheng clean up.After sweeping the floor, doing laundry and washing quilts, a wooden basin was filled with black dirty water.Anxiu sighed: "When you are admitted as a scholar, I'll find you a teacher and study at home. You will suffer in the school!"
"Xiu, in fact, I used to like to be clean, but I've been too busy recently, and I have to go to the examination room in a few days!" He Shusheng explained awkwardly.
Anxiu didn't disturb his study, and let him carry the porcelain jar to the side to read and eat while he cleaned up the courtyard by himself!He Shusheng disagreed, he insisted on staying beside Anxiu and helping her with her work.Anxiu had no choice but to let him go.
After working for more than an hour, his waist was sore, and the smell of He Shusheng's small room was gradually driven out, and the air became pure.
Anxiu stretched her waist, sighed, and said with a smile, "It will be more comfortable to live in this way. You study hard, and I'll go back first!"
He Shusheng suddenly became nervous and stood silent.
Anxiu thought that he was reluctant to leave by himself, so she rubbed his hair with a smile: "There are still a few days before the autumn exam. After the exam, go home and rest for a few days..."
Before he finished speaking, He Shusheng suddenly came over and pecked lightly on her lips.
Anxiu was stunned for a moment, and looked at him in astonishment.He Shusheng lowered his head, his face turned red, he didn't dare to look at Anxiu.
Anxiu looked at him carefully, and found that he was already as tall as herself. Although he was still very thin, he had lost his childlike immaturity like last year, and became like a half-grown young man.All the students in the school knew that he was married, and they were afraid that they would gossip about the couple's bed in private.
After listening too much, He Shusheng naturally knew what should be done between husband and wife.Anxiu feels that sexual enlightenment is very important, and he can't let others teach him badly, and he should be a guide.
Thinking of this, he hooked He Shusheng's neck and kissed his lips slowly.There was some cool air between his lips, Anxiu slowly explored bit by bit, and taught him, the sweet tongue penetrated into his mouth and stirred, He Shusheng's back suddenly tightened.
After a while, An Xiucai let him go, and said with a smile, "Don't learn from them. If you want to know something, I will teach you when you get home! Study hard in school, do you hear me?"
He Shusheng not only blushed, but also the roots of his ears were red, he nodded mechanically and said yes.
On the way back, An Xiu was a little distracted.The ancients matured precociously. Although He Shusheng was only twelve or thirteen years old, he was a half-grown young man in this age.Farmers need labor, and boys get married late.If it was a young master in the city, at this age, there should be several servant girls.
So it shouldn't be surprising that they understand these things.Just thinking of these, Anxiu always felt strange, and couldn't tell what it was like.
When I got home, it was already half afternoon.There was a carriage parked at the gate of the courtyard, Anxiu was stunned for a moment, and stopped the cart.Hearing the movement, the people inside rushed out: "Boss, you are back, Boss..."
It turned out to be Ling Erhu.He was sweating profusely and his face was dusty.Anxiu's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly asked what's wrong.
"Boss, something is wrong with our rice!" Ling Erhu knelt down in front of Anxiu with a thud, tears streaming down his face, "Boss, our rice is poisonous, and several households have eaten it to death."
Anxiu only felt her eyes go dark, and after a while she was shocked and asked what was going on.
"I had two bags of rice the day before yesterday. The smell was very strange. I was careful at the time. These days I was inquiring about a shop on East Street, and I wanted to rent it out to open a semicolon. I got a little brow, and sent a message, so I followed. I took a look. When I came back, the two bags of rice had already been sold. At noon, a family said that several people died in the family. They didn’t know if they ate our rice and wanted to report to the authorities. I hurriedly Running over from the back door to inform you!" Ling Erhu knelt at Anxiu's feet, talking hastily.
Anxiu swayed for a while, and was about to help Ling Erhu up, when someone shouted: "It's terrible, it's terrible! Officers and soldiers are coming to our village!"
Ling Erhu's complexion turned pale immediately, and before Anxiu could speak, he got up by himself and grabbed Anxiu's arm: "Master, he must have come to look for us, you go first, I'll go back to the yamen with them!"
Anxiu shook off his hand, and said sharply, "Erhu, if something goes wrong, you must calm down first! What's the use of running away?"
As soon as the words were finished, the sound of crackling official boots was heard. A large group of officers and soldiers, followed by spectators from Hejiazhuang, walked towards the courtyard of Anxiu's house.
Leading the way in front of the officers and soldiers was a clerk from Anji Mipu.Although he didn't recognize Anxiu's house, he knew that she lived in Hejiazhuang, so he brought officers and soldiers all the way to ask her.Seeing Anxiu and Ling Erhu at the door, the clerk hurriedly pointed at them and said, "Master Guan, it's them two. The woman is our boss, and the man is the shopkeeper!"
The leader of the yamen servant waved his hand, and the other officers and soldiers couldn't help but put iron locks on the heads of Anxiu and Ling Erhu.
Everyone in Hejiazhuang took a deep breath and asked what happened to Anxiu.When He Youbao and He Yuer heard the movement, they also ran out to watch, startled by the situation in front of them.
He Youbao's feet were weak, and his voice was crying: "Master Guan, what's going on? Xiu, what did you do?"
"Father, it's okay!" An Xiuwu smiled to himself, "It's just a misunderstanding!"
"Misunderstanding?" The head catcher sneered, "Your rice shop sold poisoned rice, which killed three families and nine people. What misunderstanding are you talking about!"
Only then did the people in Hejiazhuang know that there was a rice shop in Anxiu's county seat, and they were immediately noisy.Some people were worried, and hurriedly asked if they had made a mistake; some people had long been disgusted with Anxiu's prosperity, and gloated at his misfortune.He Youbao softened his hands and feet, quickly grabbed the head catcher, and knelt down in front of him: "Master Guan, please do me a favor, my girl will not do anything illegal, this must be a mistake, please do me a favor." OK!"
"Father!" Anxiu's voice became hurried, her heart ached, and she shouted at He Yu'er who was beside her, "Yu'er, help Dad back!"
He Yu'er ran over to help He Youbao up, but she was too small to drag him.
The head catcher threw He Youbao away at once, causing him to fall backwards: "Is it a mistake? I don't care if I say it, but the county master!" After finishing speaking, he ordered his servants to lock up An Xiu and An Xiu. Ling Erhu, I want to take it away.
"Master Guan, please do me a favor, let me have a word with my father-in-law and sister-in-law!" An Xiu also begged.
The head catcher gave her a cold look and told the yamen servants to let her go.With the shackles around Anxiu's neck, she ran up to He Yuer and He Youbao, and said in a low voice, "Yuer, there is money in the third cabinet in my room, and the key is with me. Quickly untie it. After taking the money, first Go beg Third Young Master Huo to see if there is any way to protect me, let's talk about it later!"
He Yuer hurriedly stretched out her hand, untied Anxiu's key, and nodded cautiously.
"Xiu..." He Youbao wanted to speak, but was interrupted.The yamen servants escorted Anxiu and Ling Erhu again, and went to the county seat.
Laifu suddenly ran out, followed behind all the yamen servants, and kept calling Anxiu.
Anxiu can't look back at it, but can still talk to it: "Laifu, go back and erase everyone's memory. Don't feel sorry for my father!"
"Anxiu, the man walking in front is the traitor of Zhao's Rice Shop. He committed the poison. You have to find evidence. I will take the children to the county seat in a while and rescue all the dead. Don't worry, nothing will happen!" Laifu shouted.
Anxiu nodded.Glancing at the guy walking in the front, he vaguely remembered that he was recruited by Ling Erhu not long ago, saying that this kid was very shrewd and flexible.Unexpectedly, it turned out to be an internal response sent by someone with ulterior motives.
"Master Guan, can I say something?" Anxiu had silver on her body, but she couldn't get it out, so she had to beg the yamen servant who was escorting her.
The man said coldly: "No! Shut up obediently!"
"Master Guan, just a word! I have some broken silver in my pocket, you keep using it to drink!" An Xiu continued to beg.
Regardless of her being a woman, the yamen servant actually reached into her pocket and touched her. When he took out the purse, he even touched her.Anxiu was disgusted for a while, she looked at him directly, and remembered his appearance in her mind, so that she could settle accounts after autumn.
There were about five taels of silver in the purse, and the yamen servant gave the money to the headhunter.The head catcher glanced at Anxiu, implying that she could speak now.
Anxiu nodded with difficulty, and shouted at Ling Erhu who was behind him, "Erhu, is there a rice shop in Zhao's house in the county?"
The guy who was leading the way was in the wrong shape.
Ling Erhu hurriedly said: "Yes, it's a little across from our shop, it's a time-honored brand!"
"Before our shop came, was his shop the best business?" An Xiu asked again.
"Yes, Master!" Ling Erhu responded.
An Xiu smiled at the yamen servant: "Master Guan, I have nothing to say!"
When they arrived at the county seat, Anxiu and Ling Erhu were directly locked in the cell without interrogation, which surprised Anxiu and Ling Erhu a little.
After sending them to the cell, no one mentioned them, Anxiu and Ling Erhu were a little strange.If someone is killed, the two of them are the parties involved, so they have to go to court, right?
Anxiu had no more money on her body, so she couldn't help but ask the cell boss what happened and why the people died. The county magistrate didn't see them, but locked them up instead.Even if He Yuer went to find Third Young Master Huo, it would take some time, and she couldn't arrive so soon.
Mr. Huo San has arrived, they should not be locked in a cell, but released without charge!
The prison chief gave them a cold look, and asked arrogantly, "What's wrong with you two?"
Anxiu hurriedly explained that she was the owner of Anji Mipu.In such a big county, the death of nine people should be regarded as a major event, and there is no need for Anxiu to describe the cause and effect.
Hearing that this was the case, the prison chief's eyes lit up immediately, and his gossiping eyes gleamed: "I can only say that your luck is really good! Those people are all dead, and they are placed at the gate of the county government office. Chief Liao Before bringing you back, a Taoist priest came suddenly and led four or five wolf dogs. He insisted that these people were not dead, but just held their breath! I have a way to revive them. Naturally, the family members would rather believe it or not In the end, they all came back to life! Strange thing, everyone is dead, except for the one who performed the autopsy, and the rest are alive. Now the family members of the family blamed him for killing their family members, and there was a commotion Get up. How can the county lord control you?"
When An Xiu and Ling Erhu heard this, they jumped up for joy.
Ling Erhu was still rejoicing about his luck, but Anxiu's joy passed away, and he thought of a more realistic question: "Since we didn't kill anyone, why didn't we let us go? What does it mean to be put in a prison cell?" ?”
When Anxiu said this, Ling Erhu was stunned, turned his head around, and hurriedly said yes, the rice shop is still sealed.Since there is nothing to do, why not let him go?
No matter how they can't figure it out, if they are closed, they will be closed, and they will not let people go.After staying in the cell for about two hours, I heard the sound of the door opening.A few people came in and told the cell boss to open the cells of Anxiu and Ling Erhu.
Anxiu struggled to stand up.
There were four people who came, and the leader was the county magistrate wearing a black hat and official robes.Anxiu was stunned, and turned to see the handsome young man in white behind the county magistrate, and immediately understood.It turned out that Huo San personally came to pick him up.
The county magistrate walked up to Anxiu and hurriedly bowed to her to make amends: "The little official is stupid. He took the girl back by mistake and let the girl go to jail for nothing. Please forgive me! The little official can't make up for you." He made three bows.
The yamen servants quickly untied Anxiu's iron chain.
Anxiu moved her sore wrists and ankles, and said with a quick smile: "Master County Magistrate, you are too polite. Originally, I have something to do first, and you are just asking the public to enforce the law!"
"Okay, don't be polite!" Huo San smiled at Anxiu, "This cell smells bad, let's get out!"
After leaving the prison, it was already dark.Huo San took Anxiu and Ling Erhu out from the back door of the prison, and the county magistrate sent them all the way to the back door, still apologizing to Anxiu.Finally, Huo San said: "It doesn't matter, you are also reporting to the public. Go back and do your work, we can go by ourselves!"
The county magistrate then stopped and stopped seeing each other off!
Less than 500 meters from the back door, a carriage was parked, and several figures were pacing back and forth beside the carriage.In the dim light, a figure was vaguely seen, and a girl shouted loudly: "Father, it's Sister Xiu who is back!"
The figures beside the carriage are He Yuer, He Youbao and Huo Gui.
"Yu'er!" An Xiu shouted loudly.
He Yu'er screamed excitedly, threw herself into An Xiu's arms, crying and laughing at the same time.The corners of An Xiu's eyes were moistened by her, and she didn't know what to say.
He Youbao sniffed, and secretly wiped away tears: "Xiu, I heard that those people have come back to life, it is really blessed by the emperor, the ancestors are blessed! It is not our rice that harmed them! You are fine, dad, go back, a little Make offerings to the ancestors!"
Huo San saw that the whole family had let go of the big stone in their hearts, so he couldn't help but curled up his lips and said with a smile: "I've been tossing for hours, I'm scared, and I'm fine now! Are you hungry? Let's go eat something. I'm so hungry!"
"I treat you, I treat you!" Anxiu laughed hurriedly.If it wasn't for Huo San, I don't know how long it will be locked up.Even if you didn't commit a crime, once you're in the cell, it's not easy to get out.If you don't take off your skin, you have to spend a lot of money. This is an unspoken rule.
The ancient county yamen is not TVB's gangster film, there is no evidence that people must be released within 48 hours.They have no concept of time.Anyway, the cell is opened by the county government, and there is no uniform standard for how long the love will be locked up.
He Yu'er even said that she was hungry and wanted to eat!
Together, a few people found a restaurant and had a good meal.He Youbao didn't have much appetite, and still had lingering fears. Anxiu kept comforting him, persuading him to eat more, so he reluctantly ate something.
After dinner, Ling Erhu helped Anxiu find an inn, where they temporarily stayed.I definitely can't go back today.The rice shop was closed, and the accountant and the clerks were imprisoned. Huo San said that the clerks would not be released until tomorrow, and told An Xiu not to worry.
Anxiu said that she got it, and thank you, Third Young Master, for your trouble.
After He Yuer and He Youbao settled down, Anxiu and Ling Erhu went to the warehouse to have a look.Huo San also said to go, and their warehouse was also sealed. Without the official certificate, Anxiu and Ling Erhu couldn't get in, but Huo San could.Everyone in the county government knew Huo San, and no one knew that the county magistrate was a slave of the Huo family.
Anxiu said his thanks again.Huo San laughed again and again, only saying that there was really nothing wrong, and told An Xiu not to take it to heart.He Yu'er was his younger sister, and An Xiu was his relative.As a family, there is no need to thank each other.
******
When he arrived at the warehouse, Huo San stepped forward and asked the servants to open the door.The yamen servants let Anxiu and the others in without the slightest hesitation.
There are about tens of thousands of catties of rice in the warehouse, which Anxiu prepared for Ling Erhu's semicolon, and he said that he would ship some more in a few days.Now I don't know which one is poisonous and which one is not, so I may have to throw them all away.If it wasn't for those dogs today, Anxiu and Ling Erhu would have died.
But now that there is a commotion, the reputation of Anji Rice Shop has been completely ruined, Suqu County can't stay, and the results of Ling Erhu's painstaking efforts for several months have all been in vain.Anxiu and Ling Erhu feel distressed just as much, but just looking at these stocks, they don't have any clues!
"Can we find out who sneaked into our warehouse?" Ling Erhu said angrily, "God damn it!"
Anxiu didn't speak, and wanted to go back and ask Laifu how those people survived.Now that people can come back to life, is there any way to clean up Mili's poison?
"Er Hu, what's the name of the guy who led the way today?" An Xiu asked.
"It's called Jiang Laoer!" Ling Erhu said, "Master, what do you ask him for?"
"A casual question." Anxiu didn't answer Ling Erhu's question directly, and turned around to whisper in Huo San's ear, roughly meaning to tell Huo San to tell the county magistrate to torture Jiang's second child to see if he could get any results out of it.Under torture to extract a confession, I am afraid that not many people can bear it.
Huo San was puzzled, but still nodded.
The trial of Mipu's case will take some time. Anxiu, He Youbao and others have all returned home and asked Ling Erhu to stand by in the county seat to inform her of any situation.
Ling Erhu said yes, and told her to rest assured.
Anxiu had nothing to worry about. The rice shop was destroyed, and the rice had to be sold to other rice shops. It was just an extra layer of exploitation, and nothing was lost.Anyway, she didn't bother with the shop at all, it was all Ling Erhu's effort.
Laifu did not erase the memory of the people in Zhuangzi according to Anxiu's intention.It felt that these memories were not bad for Anxiu.She is rich and has a frightening dog. People can only respect her more and look up to her.
Money can form a bright halo behind people.Facing the circle of light, the people below cannot see the expressions and identities of the people in the circle of light clearly, they can only look up and worship.It can make Anxiu's identity more mysterious and unattainable.
The richer you are, the more others fear you, and the safer you will be.
Regarding Laifu's theory, Anxiu described it in two words: nonsense!
People in Hejiazhuang were talking about how much money did Anxiu earn from opening the shop?Why would it kill people?
Seeing that she was released, people were even more astonished. Even if she was wronged, she would not be able to come back the next day without any ability.
Everyone was even more curious about Anxiu.
Erbo's family didn't sleep all night.When they learned that Anxiu was kidnapped by the yamen servants with iron shackles, He Youbao and He Yuer had already gone to Youji to ask Huo San for help.The second uncle's family knew that Huo San was He Yu'er's adopted brother, and also knew that the Huo family's power should not be underestimated, so they guessed that Anxiu might be fine.
But still worried.
Mrs. Li asked He Youfu to go to the county early in the morning to have a look. He didn't know where he went astray. Anxiu's family came back, but the second uncle didn't come back.
Second Aunt, He Jiangsheng and the others heard that Anxiu had returned, and rushed to her house to ask about the situation in the county and what happened.
Anxiu cut the matter from the beginning to the end, and briefly explained it.
Erbo's family breathed a sigh of relief.
Huo San sent Huo Gui to supervise the county magistrate's handling of the case, and the case of Anji Mipu came to light five days later.Jiang Laoer couldn't bear the torture, so he confessed that the owner of the Zhao family's rice shop asked him to kill people.He also said that he just threw arsenic into those two bags of rice.
Jiang Lao Er firmly insisted that he had cast arsenic. As for why these people came back from the dead, he really didn't know.
The Zhao family is just a small businessman in the county town, spending some money on weekdays to curry favor with the county magistrate, thinking that the county magistrate will protect his family at critical moments.As everyone knows, his opponent is the head of the county magistrate.
Compared with his own black hat, the county magistrate is more willing to sacrifice the Zhao family.
That's how the matter was satisfactorily resolved.The Zhao family was fined several thousand taels of silver, and the shop was closed for two months.Huo San asked the county magistrate to take the opportunity to amass money. The county magistrate couldn't wait for it, so he confiscated a lot of things from the Zhao family and imprisoned their old boss for three months.
Not to mention the complete destruction of the Zhao family's rice shop, at least temporarily losing the ability to compete with An Ji.Originally, many rice shops in the county were going hand in hand with Anji, but after such a commotion, there was one less competitor.
Ling Erhu is good at creating public opinion.Jiang Laoer himself admitted that he had put arsenic in the rice, but suddenly a Taoist priest with a dog came out and brought those poisoned people back to life. This cannot be explained by common sense. Ling Erhu made up many legends by taking advantage of this. , buy beggars, storytellers, restaurant guys, and let them spread the word.
Within a few days, Suqu County was full of legends about Anji Mipu, and the more they were told, the more evil they became.
As a result, the common people in the county knew that the Taoist priest with the dog was the reincarnation of a god, and he came to Baoanji Mipu specially.The rice from Anji Rice Shop also has aura. Not only is the price reasonable and the quality is good, but it also has an air of air, which can bless the safety of the family!
When Ling Erhu came to report to Anxiu, he mentioned this matter by the way. Anxiu, He Youbao, and He Yuer laughed so hard that they couldn't straighten their waists. It was Ling Erhu's mouth, and black can be called white. , It's so nonsense that someone actually believes it.
Ling Erhu also smiled: "Even if I don't let people talk about it, others will guess. If the result of the guess is not good for us, thank you, I just spent a little money and made a big deal. My boss, Dongjie Branch No. I have already taken a fancy to the shop, and it will open in a few days, and with this wind, it just happens to start the business."
He Youbao sighed, looked at Ling Erhu and Anxiu, and said, "This is a blessing in disguise! Maybe you were destined to do this business, but someone else made a fuss, and not only lost all your belongings, but also paid for you! Made a good gimmick, this is life."
Anxiu and Ling Erhu thought about it, isn't this the truth?If it is said for no reason that Anji Mipu is blessed by God, and that Mi Neng’s house is safe when buying Anji, who would believe it?But now, everyone believes that the rice shop's business has been booming in the past few days. Anxiu has used her abilities many times to get grain out of the fields on the dam to fill the warehouse.
The Zhao family came up with a way to poison, and finally made a wedding dress for An Ji.
If you don't have supernatural abilities, don't do things that harm others and ultimately harm yourself.
Before leaving, Anxiu told Ling Erhu this truth, telling him to do business according to his conscience and his duty, and he should not cheat his heart for making money, or he would end up with a bad ending.
Ling Erhu nodded hurriedly, reassuring Anxiu that he was careful.
Huo San helped a lot with the rice shop matter, and Anxiu always wanted to thank him, but she couldn't find a suitable opportunity or think of a suitable thing.It happened that He Yu'er embroidered a hair embroidery and asked Anxiu to give it to Huo San, and asked him to show the old lady, and embroider a few more if he likes it.
Anxiu went to Youji and gave He Yuer's embroidery to Huo San.
The next day, Huo San came to the door in person and took An Xiu and He Yu'er to Huo's house as guests.
Both An Xiu and He Yu'er were stunned.
Huo San smiled happily: "The old lady is holding the hair embroidered by Yu'er. She likes it so much that she didn't even eat dinner. She kept looking at it and couldn't let it go. She fell asleep slowly after eating supper at night. Early in the morning So she asked me to go and show her the owner of this embroidery work."
He Yuer looked at Anxiu worriedly.Although Mrs. Huo had only met Anxiu a few times before, and her appearance had undergone some changes after years of hard work in the fields, her facial features were still very similar, and if she had a sharper eye, she would be able to spot it.
Mrs. Huo should have this vision.
But after thinking about it, Anxiu is already a dead person, others may just be the same as Huo San, surprised that the two look very similar, and would not speculate that the former person came back from the dead.
Thinking of it this way, my heart was relieved.He hurriedly agreed to Huo San and went to see Mrs. Huo.He Yuer thought that if she wanted to return to the capital, she would naturally need the appreciation and promotion of others. Otherwise, even if she was a peasant girl, even if she returned to the capital, she would not be able to be discovered by others, let alone climb to a high position.
The Huo family was her first springboard.
An Xiu didn't understand He Yu'er's mind, she didn't really want to go to Huo's house.There are always many rules in the big courtyard.She has never learned the rules, and she is afraid that she will be timid and make others laugh.
But seeing the excitement on He Yuer's face, Anxiu thought she wanted to see the world, and suddenly couldn't bear to disturb her interest. When he was in a dilemma, Huo San smiled and said: "Miss An, the old lady is very kind, and she treats everyone well." Good. In front of her, you don't need to pretend to be a lady, only your true temperament can attract the eyes of the old lady. Miss An is lively, which is what the old lady likes, so don't be restrained!"
Huo San persuaded from the side, and He Yu'er really wanted to see the Huo Mansion, Anxiu felt ruthless in her heart, at worst, she would go to the Knife Mountain, there was nothing to be afraid of.In the future, if you earn money by yourself, don't you need to socialize with such a famous family?It's better to go and have a look. Learning the rules is also a reward, so I immediately agreed.
"That's great, my carriage is outside, let's go now!" Huo San laughed.
He Yu'er groaned, and dragged An Xiu back to the room to change clothes.He Yuer's embroidered clothes are even more beautiful than those made of high-grade silk, and it can't be seen that they are ordinary silk at all.
But there is no jewelry in the house.Anxiu thought it was useless, so all the jewelry she got in the past was given away as favors!There are only two hostas left in the box.
When He Yuer saw the pink pearl, she thought of something, pinned the pearl with pink embroidery thread, and tied it to the jade hairpin.With such an embellishment, the hosta looks more delicate and refined.
"It's so beautiful!" Anxiu laughed, grabbed half of the hair on the top of her head, finished a small bun, and pinned it on the hosta.
He Yu'er saw that Anxiu was dressed like this, not only matching her clothes, but also her identity - the gentle Xiaojiabiyu was very distressing.He Yu'er imitated her appearance and rolled up her hair. The sister-in-law and sister-in-law were like twin sisters.
"Sister Xiu, we're so simple, isn't it rude? Why don't you put some powder on?" He Yuer asked.Anxiu has worked all year round, and although her skin is delicate and firm, it is a bit dark.If you apply grease and powder, it may be more beautiful and moving.
"Hey!" Anxiu immediately vetoed, "It's already black, but it's powdered, why not go to an opera?"
He Yuer burst out laughing.
The sister-in-law and sister-in-law came out of the room, Huo San looked at their outfits and was very satisfied.Delicate yet generous, there is a kind of freshness of a peasant girl.Accustomed to seeing the young ladies in the city dressed in gold and silver, Huo San felt that the old lady would like their outfits.
He Youbao happened to come back from the fields, and seeing their sister-in-law dressed like this, he was taken aback for a moment: "Xiu, what are you taking Yu'er for?"
Huo San hurriedly explained for Anxiu, and told He Youbao that He Yuer sent the old lady to embroider, and said that the old lady liked it very much and was eager to see He Yuer.
When He Youbao heard this, he smiled and said, "You can't go empty-handed when you go to someone's house, you should bring something with you!"
"Father, the third son's house has everything, how can we give it away?" Anxiu smiled, "If the old lady really likes Yu'er's embroidery, next time the embroidery is good, let's forget it this time."
When He Youbao thought about it, it was exactly this truth.Tell them to leave early, go early and return early.Huo San promised He Youbao that after lunch, he would send He Yuer and Anxiu back in person.
He Youbao said a few polite words, "Three sons have worked hard" and so on, then sent them to Zhuangzi, and told them to be sensible when they go to others, don't make others laugh, come back early, and don't worry about yourself.
Anxiu and He Yu'er agreed quickly, and followed Huo San's carriage to Huo's residence.This was the first time Anxiu entered the mansion, and she felt uneasy all the time.On the other hand, He Yu'er was much calmer than her, talking to the third young master, asking questions about this and that.
