On the way back, mother Fang and Yuxi got a carriage.

Mother Fang said bitterly, "girl, I can't read. How can I make an account?" Before, she only calculated the expenses of each month, how much money was left at the end of the month, and then added and subtracted to calculate the income.

Yuxi said with a smile: "when the time comes, please a Mr. accountant, also don't want him to squat in the shop every day, just come every three to five to record the account."

Fang's mother was in a dilemma: "how about the salary?"

Yuxi said, "it's enough to pay two liang silver a month." According to the modern saying, it is to find a part-time accountant.

Fang's mother felt that the money was unjustly spent.

Yuxi shook his head and said, "Mom, there is no square without rules. The business of baozi shop is so good. When you teach these two people to learn, I'm going to open another branch shop. At that time, if the accounts are not clear, it will be easy for people to fish in troubled waters. " Now Fang's mother has two apprentices, both of whom have the contract of life in hand, and Yuxi doesn't worry about them.

Fang's mother felt that Yuxi's words were reasonable, so she no longer objected.

Yuxi said: "mother, mother parenting will come to the mansion in two days. It's hard for me to go out of the mansion again. If mother has something to do, she will ask Hongshan's sister-in-law to help deliver the message. If there's something particularly important, you'll come into the mansion by yourself. "

Mother Fang was a little relieved and said, "girl, you should learn from Mr. Song and Mammy." If you learn well, you will be able to marry a good family in the future.

After entering the city, Yuxi separated from Fang's mother. Hongshan then said, "girl, if you open another steamed bun shop, can you let my sister-in-law go to the shop to help you?" The helper on the buns shop is 800 Wen a month, and he also has breakfast. He is busy arranging other time in the morning. The treatment is really good. You know, a first-class maid's monthly salary is only 800 yuan.

Yuxi said with a smile: "wait for the shop to open. It's too early to say that."

Just as he was talking, suddenly the carriage came to an emergency stop. In the emergency, Yuxi reaction is very fast, hands immediately grasp the edge of the carriage, did not let himself hit the car. Hongshan is not as quick as Yuxi. She bumps her forehead into the car and makes a big bag.

Hongshan angrily lifts the driving curtain. Before she asks the driver what's the matter, the driver explains in a hurry: "Miss Hongshan, a girl suddenly rushes to the road. I'm afraid she'll bump into the driver and stop the carriage." It's a man, not a beast, and the coachman is a reflexive one.

After hearing this, Hongshan saw a girl lying two steps away in front of the horse. The girl was not old, about ten years old. She would fall to the ground with pale face and blood on her clothes. She looked like a ghost.

Hongshan was so scared that she sat back in the carriage.

When Yuxi saw Hongshan like this, he was curious. Lift the curtain and look out. Before she had any idea, two people came running.

The two men who came were all big and thick. One of the men with a mole on his face saw the girl on the ground and cried out, "here it is."

Then he strided over, and the eagle grabbed the girl lying on the ground like a chicken, and hummed, "you run, why don't you run? How can you run again? "

The girl's eyes were full of despair.

Yuxi looks at the despair in the girl's eyes. He doesn't know how to think of his death in the thatched cottage. At that time, she was so desperate. Yuxi heart a quiver, loudly toward the mole man called: "put her down."

Hongshan immediately put down the curtain of the car and said to Yuxi, "girl, you can't save her. It's not a good person to look at these." The girl is probably a runaway slave.

The mole man turned his head and saw Yuxi's carriage and several servants around him. Then he knew it was a rich family. In the capital, there is still some insight. These two people dare not offend, and then they said in a loud voice: "girl, this is our girl in Chunxiang building. She's waiting for the chance to escape. We're going to take her back. "

When Hongshan heard Chunxiang building, her face changed: "girl, I can't take care of it." Chunxiang building is a brothel! How can a girl get involved in a brothel.

Contrary to Hongshan, Yuxi is relieved to hear that the other party is chunxianglou. People in chunxianglou are easy to deal with. Even Huakui can buy it as long as they can afford it, not to mention a teenage girl: "how much is it? I bought it. "

"I can't do this. If you want to buy it, you have to ask our boss."

Yuxi doesn't pay attention to the mole man, but asks the girl who is grasped by the mole man: "how much is your worth of silver?" To be able to escape from Chunxiang building shows that this man is brave and not afraid of death.

There was a glimmer of hope in the girl's eyes, a glimmer of hope: "twenty Liang."

Yuxi said to the mole man, "I'll pay five times as much for her. What do you think?"

The mole man listened to this, some hesitated.

The little girl, looking at the mole man, said, "if you must catch me back, I won't live." She would rather die than do what these people want.

The mole man knew that the dead girl was stubborn. He didn't bow his head after fighting for many times. This time, he took advantage of their negligence and escaped: "smelly girl, you are lucky." This dead girl is hard and soft. It's hard to say that she can't take her back. It's really short-sighted. Anyway, it's not a national beauty. It's better to sell it, or at least make a small profit.

The little girl had a look in her eyes, which meant that she had agreed to sell her. Thinking of this, the little girl looked at Yuxi eagerly. No one wants to die if he can live.

The mole man called to Yuxi, "I'm going to ask someone to get her deed. We'll pay for it and deliver it."

Chunxiang building is not far from their place, and the little girl's deed of identity is soon available. Yuxi said to the girl, "do you see if that's your deed?"

The little girl nodded and said, "it's my deed."

Got the deed, Yuxi did not directly return to the government, but went to Shangyuan street. As for the girl's ghost appearance, she dare not take it back to the government, or she will be scolded.

Yuxi looked at the girl lying in the car, covered with injuries, and asked, "who are you? How can they be sold to Chunxiang building? "

The little girl said, "my name is Ling Qi. My father is Ling Yuanwai from Hexia town. My father died six months ago."

Hongshan asked, "how can you be in the brothel? What about your relatives? "

After hearing this, Ling Qi's eyes burst out with hatred: "I was sold by my stepmother. I used to sleep at home and wake up in the brothel. "

Yu Xi looked at Ling Qi's face and said, "don't you deal with your stepmother?" Since Ling Qi's father is a member, his family must be in good condition. Ling Qi is not a national beauty. She can't sell to brothels with her beauty. That's only one reason. Ling Qi has a grudge against her stepmother.

Ling Qi nodded: "without her, my mother would not have died."

Yuxi doesn't need to ask any more. How can she live in peace with her mother killer. Her stepmother sold her to the brothel not for money, but for revenge: "do you have any relatives in your family? If so, I'll send you back when you get well

But Ling Qi shook his head and said, "the girl saved me. My life is the girl's

Can repeatedly regardless of life and death to escape from the Chunxiang building, even if bruised also do not give up, visible temperament is extremely resolute. This kind of people, if they can sincerely submit, will be a great help. Yuxi said, "you have to think about it. If you want to be my servant girl, you have to be a slave. If you go back, you're still a good girl. "

Ling Qi said sincerely: "girl, I don't have any relatives at home. I don't know where to go even if I go back. There is a way to live with the girl It's better to follow the girl than those who have no idea. Even if you are a servant girl, at least your life and personal safety are guaranteed.

Seeing that she was not impulsive, Yuxi nodded and said, "you should go to mother Fang's steamed bun shop to heal the wound first, and wait for the rest to heal the wound."

Ling Qi nodded and said, "good."

Fang's mother is soft hearted. She is very sympathetic when she hears Ling Qi's experience. She asks people to help Ling Qi to the backyard and asks for a doctor for her.

Mother Shen looked at the sky and said, "girl, you have to go back. If you don't go back, the old lady will scold you." It's almost dark now, but the old lady said she had to get home before dark.

Yuxi said, "mother Shen, send someone to check the town under the river. Is there such a person as Ling Qi?" Before using a person, you have to find out the details of the other person. If this person tells a lie and uses a person of unknown origin, then I don't know what will happen.

Back to the government, it was already the beginning of Xu Shi. Because he came back late, Yuxi was severely reprimanded by old lady Han.

Yuxi lowered his head and stood there obediently, scolded by the old lady.

Looking at Yuxi like this, the old lady can't help thinking of Yuxi's biological mother Ning. Every time she scolds Ning, Ning is also like this. Thinking of this, the old lady should be flustered: "you go down!" There is a real need for fate between people. Even if Yuxi's performance is getting better and better, with such a biological mother, the old lady can't like Yuxi.

Yuxi retreated respectfully.

Only Luo's mother was left in the room, and Han said, "I'm afraid I can't raise this child." Although she is respectful on the face, she is actually very defensive against her. Otherwise, she would not guard against Hongshan and Shen's mother in everything. Even if Hongshan has already surrendered, she still can't get her trust.

Mother said with a smile, "what is the old lady saying? The fourth girl is your own granddaughter. There's nothing you can't raise. "

If it were not for her granddaughter, she would not have allowed such nonsense. Han Laofu said: "I'm afraid she has a grudge against her Laozi?" If Yuxi is not close to her father and resents her family, no matter how good Yuxi is, she will have to cut off her wings.

Luo mother carefully said: "old lady, let the maid say, the fourth girl is not so cold hearted, you see she is very close to the eldest lady and the second son." The old lady and the four girls didn't see each other several times in a month. Where did they get close. As for the third master, he has neglected the four girls too much these years, but those who have some temperament can't get close to them. Not to mention four girls with such a big temperament.

Luo's mother is very loyal to the old lady, and often analyzes problems from the perspective of onlookers, and the old lady listens to her suggestions. Old lady Han sighed and said, "Wu is not an Anfen." Wu's style makes Yuxi and Laosan estranged. But the old three didn't care about Yuxi's daughter.

Luo's mother also felt that Wu's eyelids were too shallow, and the means were clumsy. Before she came back, she offended a lot: "when she comes back, the old lady will teach her well."

Old lady Han shook her head and said, "I'm old. I don't have so much energy. When I get married tomorrow, I'll let go and enjoy two years of happiness. " Qiu's housekeeper has strong governing ability, but she's a bit of a fool in playing tricks on her mind. She doesn't trust to give her family to Qiu. Now she can only hope for her future granddaughter-in-law.

Luo's mother said with a smile: "when the prince gets married, the old lady will worry about the marriage of the three girls. Where can the old lady really have leisure

Old lady Han sighed: "yes, as the saying goes, when you raise a child at the age of 100, you can really have leisure in your home."
