Chapter 658： The hardest thing to accept is the kindness of a beautiful woman

Chapter 658 It’s hardest to accept the kindness of a beauty

The two of them saluted the Li brothers together.

Lu Zong said: "Brother Li, forgive our ignorance and offense just now. We are not looking for this jade pendant. We may not be able to find it even if we look for it.

“We will follow your brothers everywhere. Don’t worry, we will follow the arrangements in everything this time.”

Jiaren sighed inwardly, knowing that he couldn't get rid of these two people.

Actually, he didn’t want to take them around with him.

Fortunately for Jia Xu, Lu Zong obviously has a special status. If something happens and someone gets hurt, the Li family will be easily angered.

Then, isn’t it an unreasonable disaster?

But the words have already been said here. If you refuse anymore, you will offend others.

He could only say: "My dear brothers, we were in Xindu, under the emperor's feet, so naturally no one dared to cause trouble.

"But the sky is high here and the emperor is far away, and there may be danger at any time. Please be more cautious. If you have any differences of opinion, you must listen to our arrangements."

"Okay, we will definitely obey the arrangements this time." Lu Zong responded quickly.

He and Jia Xu lost their jade pendants, which was a blow, allowing them to see the darkness and danger behind the bustling docks...

Everyone continued to walk forward, leaving the dock area, and the street became quieter.

But with people coming and going, it looks like an ordinary county town, which makes people feel at ease.

Different from the heavy snowfall in the North, the temperature here is the same as in summer, not just hot, but even a little stuffy.

Brother Cat is young, and soon he started to cry out that he was hot and thirsty.

So, a few people chose a restaurant. Seeing that most of the tables in the front hall were full, they also went in.

The master and servant divided two tables, each ordering four dishes and several bowls of rice.

The boy recommended drinking, but Jiaren refused and rewarded him with a few copper coins.

The boy Le Dian Dian went behind, and Zheng Wu followed him on the pretext of having a bad stomach and looking for a toilet...

Soon, the food was served in the kitchen, and just as it was placed on the table, Zheng Wu came back and nodded with the masters.

The Li brothers moved their chopsticks. Lu Zong and Jia Xu saw this. Although they still felt that they were not so careful, they did not say anything.

Everyone was eating and listening to the conversations of the diners next to them.

It turns out that there is a dragon boat race on the inland river tonight.

The so-called inland river is the river channel built from the dock to the city.

A main river channel is very wide and branches into numerous small waterways, which are used by local people to travel on weekdays.

There is a river outside the back door of many people's houses, with boats tied to them, which is much more convenient than horse-drawn carriages.

There were two wealthy businessmen in the city who were feuding over something unknown. They agreed that their family's dragon boat team would compete in the battle, and whoever won would get the prize.

Such a lively event, naturally everyone flocks to it.

The Jiaren brothers were also tempted, and Lu Zong and Jia Xu were even more interested in joining in the fun.

So, after eating, they went straight to the inland river, chose a location with the best view, and then booked two river-view rooms and two ordinary rooms nearby.

Brother Cat was worried about the excitement at night, so he said: "Brother, let's go buy some delicious food and watch while we eat at night."

Jiaren rubbed his brother's hair and agreed.

The sun outside has just set in the west. It takes a long time to come out, so naturally you can't stay in the room until night.

So they packed up and went out again.

There was a large market not far away. Some vendors were selling local specialties such as fried squid rings and shrimp cakes, and everyone rushed there.

Food that is freshly cooked is always the best. Even though they had finished lunch, Jiaren and others couldn't help but eat a lot around the stall.

Jiaren took out a silver bean from his belt, and just as he was about to pay, Jia Xu had already pulled out his money bag, took a piece of silver and threw it to the stall owner, and packed a lot more.

When he turned around, he saw that the Li brothers had bad expressions, and then he remembered what he had promised, and quickly stuffed the money bag back, "I'm sorry, I was so happy about eating that I forgot about it."

Jiaren and others could not say anything. Jiaren could only say: "Brother Jia has spent money."

A few people continued to walk into the market. Some people were performing arts and performing arts, which was very lively.

Brother Li grabbed Brother Cat and was about to go over, but someone made a move first and grabbed the hem of Jia Xu's gown.

Jia Xu was startled, and when he looked down, he saw a woman in a white dress kneeling on the roadside. She was sixteen or seventeen years old, with a haggard expression, but she could not hide her good looks.

His big eyes were filled with tears, and he was about to cry, which was extremely pitiful.

Jia Xu was about to get angry, but when he saw this, he stopped his anger and asked, "Girl, why are you holding me back?"

The girl let go of her hand, Yingying bent down and kowtowed, revealing the broken straw mat tube behind her.

There is nothing visible on the top of the tube, but a pair of black feet peek out from the end...

Everyone was startled and took two steps back.

The girl also shed tears and choked with sobs and said: "Son, the little girl and her father took refuge with relatives and friends, and when they came here, they were stolen and taken care of by evil people.

“My father died of illness in anger. The little girl is unable to bury her father, so she can only kneel here... and sell herself to bury her father!”

After saying that, she kowtowed again, and her tears quickly wet the bluestone floor in front of her.

Jia Xu was a little at a loss. The family had been strictly controlled before. Not only did his concubines share the same room, he didn't even have any maids. All the food, clothing, housing and transportation were taken care of by the young man and his mother-in-law.

At this moment, I was suddenly troubled by such a beautiful and young girl crying, and I really didn’t know what to do.

He glanced at Lu Zong and the Li brothers and saw that they were silent, so he could only bite the bullet and said: "Girl, we are passing by too... I wonder if I can help you?"

The girl wiped away her tears, her eyelashes were moist, she blinked lightly, and there was a hint of charm in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

"The young master is away from home, so he must not have many people to serve him. As long as the young master gives the young lady ten taels of silver and buries her father, the young lady is willing to follow the young master and become a slave or maid, whatever the young master arranges."

After saying that, she lowered her head shyly, revealing a section of her white neck, which was particularly dazzling in the sun.

Jia Xu swallowed subconsciously. He squeezed the purse in his sleeve pocket and packed twenty or thirty taels of silver, which was not enough.

"Girl, I can give you ten taels of silver to bury your father, but I don't lack slaves. After you bury your father, you can continue to visit your relatives..."

The woman didn't wait to finish listening, and started crying again, "I know that I can't catch the attention of the young master with my appearance like a willow tree. You don't have to take me in, but please let him know where you live. I want to give him some money after burying my father." Kowtow.”

Jia Xu's forehead was already sweating.

The hardest thing to accept is the kindness of a beautiful woman!

Hearing that the woman no longer bothered to follow her and just kowtow to say thank you, he subconsciously told her the name of the inn.

As a result, Jiaren pulled his sleeve and stopped him in time.

Lu Zong watched for a long time and felt something was wrong. He said, "This girl probably wants to bury her father and find a place to live, but we are passing by and can't help.

"Why don't we give up our seats quickly and let the girl wait for the next person?"

After saying that, he was about to take Jia Xu and leave.

But at some point, seven or eight spectators gathered behind them.

There were women holding baskets, men with fierce looks, and even old men with gray beards, blocking their retreat...
