Chapter 764: next step

The coachman was in unbearable pain and wanted to speak, but found that his whole body was stiff and his voice could not be uttered. He could only stare at Xiao Lingchuan and his party with rounded eyes, lamenting that he was so unlucky.

That night, even though the officials were arresting bandits, if there were no people in front of them, those clumsy officials would not be able to catch all of them back, and the little girl in the carriage would be ruined by the bandits even if she did not die.

He had some sympathy for Xiangli's master and servant in the carriage, so he took them on the journey, but sympathy was not worth mentioning in front of money.

Can you exchange silver flowers if you are kind? With money, you can buy fields and shops, and you can take back a few beautiful girls to live a fairy life.

After encountering the scene where the officials caught bandits, the coachman became enlightened. After thinking about it carefully, he played with people, killed them, and threw them in the wilderness without anyone finding out.

Originally, the master and the servant ran out secretly, and he was hired in the labor market. The two parties did not know each other, so the death of the two of them would not cause much trouble.

Halfway through the walk yesterday, he saw that it was going to rain, so he coaxed the master and servant in the car to find a place to shelter from the rain.

The coachman was quite familiar with this road. After going around in circles, he stopped at a deserted path and got into the carriage directly.

Xiangli's neck was injured, she was weak, and had no ability to resist at all, while the mother-in-law was taking care of her, the coachman barely made any effort to tie them up, fix them on the carriage stool, and stuffed a veil in his mouth to prevent The two shouted.

The coachman had a good idea, so he chose the cave as the location. Unexpectedly, when he entered in the middle of the night, he saw two carriages in the cave, which must be for lightning protection.

In order not to attract attention, he could only hide in the carriage. When he was beautiful, he only dared to touch it, for fear of making noise and arousing the vigilance of outsiders.

The fat was about to be eaten, and the money was about to enter his pocket. At the critical moment, the situation took a turn for the worse.

"Miss, don't go there yet."

Xiao Lingchuan called Li Haitang to stop, now he is a man, it is not convenient to visit in the carriage, because he does not know if there are any accomplices of the driver in the carriage.

"My lord, madam, I'll go and have a look."

Wufu was very strong, and she had a few tricks. She put the things on the carriage, and with a dagger in her hand, she went straight to Xiangli's carriage.

In the car, Xiangli was struggling. She had a fight with the coachman yesterday, but was untied by the coachman. She was extremely ashamed and angry. He was immobilized and his mouth was stuffed with a veil, so he didn't even have the ability to bite his tongue to kill himself.

She was already in despair, planning to seek death, but unexpectedly, she quickly got out the bellyband that was under her body, and tried to call for help.

"Miss Xiangli, are you alright?"

When Wufu came up, seeing Xiangli and her mother-in-law tied together, she was stunned for a moment, and then asked a question with concern.

While inquiring, she was not idle, but she thought in her heart that the luck of these two people is not ordinary, especially Miss Xiangli, who escaped from the bandits and fell into the hands of the coachman. It didn't take long for him to die.

Xiangli's eyes were complicated, and she didn't know how to answer. Should she say that she has something to do, or is she all right?

The coachman's claws were all over her body, she endured the nausea in her heart, and almost shed tears overnight.

Wu Fu sighed inwardly, and really didn't know how to comfort her. Seeing that the wound on Miss Xiangli's neck was open, it was still dripping blood.

Not good at bandaging Wufu, she got out of the car and called Bai Guo, and explained the situation to her wife.

"Lady, I'll wait for you outside the cave first."

The girl's skin is thin, and it's inconvenient to have a foreigner, so Xiao Lingchuan took out a bundle of hemp rope, tied it to the driver, and went straight out of the cave.

Li Haitang watched the savage husband go out, she squinted her eyes, "What's wrong?"

"Things are not good."

Wu Fu faltered, after all, she was a girl who hadn't left the court, so she was a bit shy when talking about it.

Before she could express herself clearly, Xiangli got off the carriage with the support of her mother-in-law.

It might be because of being **** overnight, Xiangli took two steps, but her legs went limp, she just knelt down and kowtowed to Li Haitang, "Thank you Madam for saving my life, if it wasn't for you..."

Xiangli was sobbing, she didn't dare to imagine what would happen to her dead body in the wilderness.

"Ma'am, this old servant offended you a lot before, please don't remember the villain's mistakes, please forgive me."

The mother-in-law's eyes were red, and she knelt down together to apologize to Li Haitang, lamenting her recklessness that night.

The coachman disliked her for being old, and did nothing to her, but his young lady would inevitably suffer from swindling. For an unmarried woman, it could be said that she lost her reputation and was a devastating blow.

She didn't know how to persuade the young lady, she just felt that the lives of the master and the servant were miserable, and since they escaped from the wolf's den, they have not been able to get along.

"Get up! Why are you being polite to me?"

Li Haitang hurried forward two steps, helped him up, and asked Wu Fu to remove two small stools from the carriage, allowing them to sit down.

Bai Guo was silent, helping Xiangli to treat the wound, and seeing that Xiangli's mouth was dry and peeling, she brought two bowls of water.

"Ma'am, I..."

Xiangli said a few words, and broke down in tears, after all, she is a talented little girl, raised in a deep house, has never seen the world, and is simple.

Her nanny has also never been out of the courtyard, if she runs away from home, she can only rent a carriage, and the lady who looks after the carriage is honest.

The past few days have been safe and sound, who knows that the coachman has already thought about it!

"Don't cry, things happen, it's useless to try to find a solution."

Seeing that Xiangli still wanted to die, Li Haitang comforted her, "As the saying goes, if you survive a catastrophe, you must have future blessings. Xiangli, you are the one with future blessings, so think about everything."

Being tampered with by the coachman is like being slapped twice by a dog's paw, and there is no missing piece of meat, so don't think about it.

Besides, apart from the coachman and Xiangli's nanny, no one really knows about it, even if it's a secret, it's fine to keep it in your stomach.

Xiangli covered her face with her hands, and cried hard to feel better. The two of them, master and servant, had never encountered such a thing, and they didn't know what to do next.

"Send the person to the officer."

People like the coachman must not be let go easily, and he must be allowed to sit through the prison.

Li Haitang wanted to ask the master and servant about their follow-up plans. She was also forced to marry, so she definitely couldn't go back to that family.

"Madam, to tell you the truth, when our wife was alive, she once arranged a marriage for the young lady."

The other party's family name is Yang, and they are also the same merchants as the family. The two families are well-matched, and they often move around.

Later, the business of the Yang family failed and became worse and worse. The only young man, Xiangli's fiancé Yang Xu, abandoned business and became a scholar.

The old couple of the Yang family dismissed their servants and moved to Kyoto with their son. In the past two years, during the festivals, the Yang family sent people to send new year gifts. Although they were not expensive, they were thoughtful, which showed that they remembered this marriage.
