Chapter 33 The Death of a Little Man(1/2)
In the courtyard of Prince Guangling, there are not so many girls, but a dazzling array of girls. They are all fat and thin, and they all have their own beauty, but none of them seem to be able to help her.
The hands that are not wet with spring water, the face that is not exposed to the sun, the snow-white skin, the soft white teeth, where the girl is doing things, she is clearly a pampered young lady...
Xin Yi was convinced.
Take them back, who is more like a girl?
She deserves to be a slave to serve them, right?
Fu Jiuqu is more sexy.
Raising so many beautiful girls in the yard, enjoying all the beauty, and gaining a good reputation as a noble gentleman who doesn't care about beauty, bah...
How come she hadn't noticed before that Fu Jiuqu's character was a womanizer? That's too much!
Seeing her unpredictable expression, Sun Huai bowed forward with a smile and said, "If the young lady is not satisfied, how about a few more? Can you choose slowly?"
besides?
Xin Yi almost died laughing.
How many beautiful girls does Fu Jiuqu have in his house?
She didn't want to look like she was visiting a brothel, nor did she want to delay the future of these girls.
"That's all, Eunuch Sun, thank the prince for his kindness. I can't help but call these little beauties. I can't help you."
Xin Yi repeatedly said that he couldn't bear it, and refused Sun Huai's good intention to continue to drag the girl to let her choose.
"No choice, no choice, leave it all to the king. I have to take the children back to make a fire and cook."
…
In the Yihua Hall, Fu Jiuqu had a stiff face.
"Don't like any of them?"
Sun Huai said yes, and Fu Jiuqu snorted coldly.
"I don't know how to praise."
Sun Huai Ni smiled crookedly, "The little lady said that the girls are all so beautiful that she can't bear to let them do rough work."
"Is it beautiful?" Fu Jiuqu's eyes showed a bit of confusion.
"Of course, no one can compare to the prince..." Sun Huainu said with a smile. When he saw Fu Jiuqu's face lowered, he quickly stopped talking and accused with a straight face.
"That little lady really doesn't know what's good and what's good. She didn't know that these girls were specially brought by the prince to take care of her and the children. She also said that a gentleman doesn't take what others like, and it's a waste of the prince's hard work..."
Fu Jiuqu glanced at him.
As if thinking of something boring, he snorted twice.
"Let her be."
Sun Huai didn't understand the meaning of his master's grunt, so he asked with a smile: "What should I do with these girls? The young ones do seem to be quite good-looking, and I can afford to serve in my house..."
"Kick him out." Fu Jiuqu interrupted him lukewarmly.
"Kick them out?" Sun Huai was surprised, "This is all... the adults' wishes."
This is a long story.
When he learned that Xin Yi was pregnant, Fu Jiuqu ordered Sun Huai to find some girls to take care of her and her three children. Unexpectedly, when the news got out, both familiar and unfamiliar girls were sent over one after another.
It's so good that some people even sent their daughters.
Fu Jiuqu didn't pay attention to them, and they all piled up in the backyard and asked grandma to teach them the rules.
Those girls thought they were going to serve the Prince of Guangling County, but they were overjoyed.
Sun Huai pities the fragrance and cherishes the jade, which is a bit intolerable.
"Master, seeing that the eldest princess is about to return home, why not just keep her for now..."
There was a snap.
Fu Jiuqu slapped the book heavily on the table, crossed his arms and raised his fingers towards Sun Huai.
Sun Huaiku turned around and raised his buttocks.
Fu Jiuqu kicked him on the buttocks.
"You bitch, your ideas are getting bigger and bigger, why don't I give you a full reward?"
Sun Huai was startled, knowing that the flattery was on the horse's leg, so he quickly laughed and shamed himself.
"Even though I rewarded the younger one, the younger one doesn't have the blessing to enjoy it. Then the younger one will go and tell them where they came from and where are they going to go back to?"
"idiot!"
"Sir, are you right?"
"Where did it come from, go back to where it came from!"
Sun Huai laughed awkwardly and stopped trying to make his master happy.
Because Cheng Cang came in.
"Report to the prince." Cheng Cang said with a serious face and cold eyes, "Yun Qiqiao, someone fell into the river——"
Fu Jiuqu's expression remained unchanged, and there was a hint of violence in his smile.
"Are they the three porters?"
Cheng Cang lowered his head, a little ashamed.
"Our men arrived a step too late, and three of them drowned themselves in the river."
The water of Yunqi Bridge connects to the Bian River, and the three people who drowned themselves in the river were naturally named after the Bian River water ghosts, further confirming the terrifying rumor...
"What's the reaction from Kaifeng Mansion?"
Cheng Cang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Fu Jiuqu's face was calm and not sulky, "Zeng Qinda took the official Meng Shao, his wife He Ren and a group of government servants to retrieve the corpse from Yunqi Bridge..."
Fu Jiuqu smiled coldly, with a murderous look on his face.
"Let's go and see the excitement."
·
Xin Yi drove a donkey cart and took his three children with him. He originally wanted to go to Sun's Pharmacy to ask the shopkeeper if he could get a copy of "Jian Ji Zhong Fang" which has been lost in later generations. But before he arrived at Yunqiqiao, he
His attention was absorbed by the crowds of people squeezing forward one after another.
"Dead, definitely dead."
"A while ago, they danced one at a time, but now they dance three at a time? Are the Bianhe Water Ghosts getting worse?"
"These three laborers, who have been doing jobs from Yunqiqiao to Zhouqiao all year round, somehow drowned themselves in the river today..."
"I'm afraid... I might have hit something evil."
"It's really weird."
For things that cannot be explained, Guixie is the one who takes the blame.
As Xin Yi listened, the images of the three porters emerged in his mind, as well as the small figures seen in the "Bianjing Fu", walking back and forth on the streets and bridges, either carrying animals on their backs or carrying them on their shoulders.
These people were part of the scenery, and even their faces were blurry...
Why are they all involved in the water ghost case?
It’s a mess. It’s a mess!
Xin Yi walked closer, and there were more people watching.
Several government officials were questioning some men who looked like porters under the willow trees by the bridge.
Xin Yi faintly heard someone say.
"They're no different than they used to be."
"It seemed that I had a few words with a young lady who was driving a donkey cart and taking care of her children, and was pushed..."
"The little lady is very fair and thin, with sores on her face..."
Xin Yi subconsciously tightened the reins and saw three little guys looking at her.
Sannian grabbed her by the corner of her clothes, her little face changed color in fear.
"mother……"
The twins Er Nian and Yi Nian had their little brows twitching. They had almost identical faces, but their expressions were completely different.
A thought of indifference, thinking.
With his second thought, he glared at her fiercely, "It's all your fault..."
Xin Yi silently pulled down the green cloth on the roof of the carport and covered the child's face inside, but heard a malicious laugh coming from behind.
"Master Zeng, I'm here to testify."
A small sedan was parked under the willow tree beside the bridge.
