"Miss, this is dangerous—you’re pregnant and just jumped down from up there?!"
Yun Chaoge froze, then nodded, "I'm a widow. The child’s father died not long ago."
Ba...
Haitang was confused but still believed in her own and her mistress's analysis.
That day, they had dinner at Yuefeng Restaurant and only celebrated with Chaoge.
Even the other people who had meals with her young lady had symptoms of unbearable itching and signs of diarrhea, but none of them had skin ulcers like her young lady. But it was obvious that this woman did it on purpose.
This woman could smell the poison of Silver Moon Bamboo at once, so her method of poisoning must be very sophisticated.
Besides, they had also asked during the meal, and found out that the woman had disappeared for a while during the meal.
"Don't rush me. I also want to help my sister get revenge, but I'm afraid I've caught the wrong person."
"Hey, Miss Third, I have been waiting with you in Yuefeng Restaurant for several days. Now that he has finally appeared, do you want to back out?"
Haitang looked at Leng Yanyan's hesitation and continued to provoke her.
If this woman is not captured as soon as possible to vent her anger to her mistress, then she will kill her to vent her anger!
"Okay, okay, in that case, Qiuliang, go get the person.
Remember to remind them to do it quickly and efficiently, and preferably without causing any commotion, and quietly. "
After receiving the order, Leng Yanyan's maid Qiu Liang turned around and trotted away to look for someone.
Meanwhile, Chaoge was still wandering around the numerous snack stalls.
She was a little hungry at first, but after one round, she was half full.
With the backpack and basket, Chaoge bought more and more, and the quantity was larger than before.
These things will not expire if they are kept in the space, and I can bring some back for my mother-in-law and Chaoyu when I go back.
Her mother-in-law has been away from the capital for several months and must be missing the capital's snacks.
It can be a snack for Lao Wu while he is recovering from his injury. It can also be used to change the taste of Black Panther and his wife who have been eating white flour buns for a few days.
"Get out of here, do you know the rules?
Can you set up a stall wherever you want on Lan Kwai Street?
If you don't pay the protection fee today, don't even think about coming here again!"
"Brother, an official has already come to collect it, why do you have to collect it again?
Today is our first day setting up the stall, so I hope you can be flexible.
This stall has just been opened, and we haven't sold many cakes yet. How can we afford the protection fee of one tael of silver?"
Hearing the quarrel, Chaoge, who was eating the honey cake for which he had just paid, paused while chewing the cake, and felt that the sound was somewhat familiar.
When I looked forward, I saw a group of people shopping, already surrounding the stall from which the familiar voice came.
"Stop talking nonsense. Do you want to drink a toast and then drink a forfeit?"
The man who collected the insurance premium threatened the old lady's son and punched him in the face!
The old lady's son couldn't avoid it in time, and after being punched, blood immediately flowed from his nose.
Before the old lady could react, several men rushed over, pinned her son to the ground, and started beating and kicking him.
Taking advantage of the situation, he wielded the thick whip and whipped the old lady's son without paying any attention to the people watching!
Seeing this situation, the old lady no longer had time to reason with these people. Thinking of the injuries on her son's body, she subconsciously pounced on them, howling and protecting her son tightly under her body!
"You bandits, do you still have the law under the emperor's feet?
All you know how to do is bully us ordinary people?
The officer took the money, and you still come...”
The old lady's wails echoed throughout most of Lan Kwai Street. Her loud voice even drowned out the hawkers' cries!
Hearing the sound, the vendors suddenly shut their mouths and looked towards the stall where the trouble was happening.
Chaoge was stunned on the spot, and even the half-bitten honey cake in his mouth fell to the ground.
"Isn't this too fateful?"
After muttering to himself, Chaoge hurriedly squeezed into the crowd of people making trouble in front!
Unfortunately, there were more and more people, and when I squeezed in, I found that three burly men were beating a mother and her children.
And that man was the driver who had helped him block the arrow? !
What made Chaoge feel even more ridiculous was that the lady lying on the driver and protecting him was actually Aunt Li, whom she had not seen for a year!
Seeing this, Chaoge had no time to be surprised. He quickly threw a few silver needles at them and knocked the three people down!
The three men who were beating Aunt Li and her son suddenly fell to the ground with a "thump" without any warning, scaring the people around them so much that they retreated one after another and tried to avoid them!
It was for this reason that Chaoge had the opportunity to sneak in and come to Aunt Li's side.
Without paying any attention to the child who was crying with his eyes closed in fear in front of the stall, Chaoge reached out and pulled Aunt Li up.
"Don't hit..."
Aunt Li cried and shouted, wanting to continue begging for mercy, but when she raised her head, a familiar face came into her sight!
"It's me, Aunt Li. I'm the little pigeon!"
Aunt Li knew that she was Xiao Gege, but she never expected that she would meet her in the capital at this time!
Aunt Li's face was covered with tears and snot, and it was red and swollen. Her coat was also slashed with blood from the whip, and her hair was disheveled.
Her eyes were red and swollen from crying. Chaoge couldn't help but feel angry when he saw Aunt Li like this!
The driver, who was protected by Aunt Li, struggled to get up from the bed when her mother stood up.
He didn't care about the injuries on his body, and didn't recognize Chaoge's familiar voice at all. He quickly grabbed Aunt Li's arm with his backhand.
"Mom, are you stupid? Are you okay?
They are beating me, why are you protecting me? "
Aunt Li didn't care about her son's complaints. Looking at Chaoge, her tears had already burst out. Her mouth was open for a long time, and she couldn't utter a word except trembling!
"Little pigeon?!
No, sister! Sister! "
The child's crying suddenly stopped. Without waiting for Aunt Li to say anything, he, who had just been crying loudly out of fear, saw the face of the person who came clearly. He wiped his tears in surprise and rushed towards Chaoge while shouting!
The little person threw himself into his arms. When Chaoge touched the child's thin body and felt the bones in his hands, he couldn't help but his eyes welled up.
She quickly squatted down and hugged the child who was holding her legs tightly in her arms.
"Xiao Ran, Xiao Ran, why are you with Aunt Li?
Where is your brother?
And your elder and second elder sisters!"
Looking at Leng Xiaoran, who was holding her and had just suffered a fright, Chaoge felt like she was dreaming.
At this moment, she seemed to have returned to the days a year ago when they were fleeing famine.
