Jiang Yi went all the way to the market. Fortunately, there was nothing there along the way. She bought some meat and vegetables and was about to go back.
Passing by a bun shop, a boy was thrown out. The boy was dressed in rags and his body was covered with bruises.
It just rolled to her feet.
She heard the man in the bun shop say, "Come and steal buns again, and I'll beat you up."
It turns out he came to steal buns.
Jiang Yi thought about this for a moment and was about to leave, not wanting to meddle in other people's business.
She was a bit timid and had never been out alone before, especially to such an unfamiliar place. She just wanted to go back quickly.
But she didn't expect that the boy suddenly grabbed the hem of her skirt.
The dirty hands instantly left bloodstains on her dress.
She lowered her eyes to look at the boy, who looked to be about six or seven years old, skinny and with a face covered in dirt. She couldn't see his face clearly, but she felt that he looked extremely pitiful.
"Help me."
"I, I can't save people." Jiang Yi said subconsciously: "I don't know medical skills."
The boy was speechless.
"Do you want me to take you to the clinic?" Jiang Yi touched the silver and money on her body. There was not much left. If she spent all the money, she was afraid that Mrs. Wang would scold her again when she returned.
But she gritted her teeth and just let it be said. The child had come to her for begging, so she couldn't just ignore it.
"No, no need." The boy said hurriedly, "I can't walk."
"Help me." He pulled out a dirty bun from his arms, and the child's eyes instantly lit up with a smile. "My sister is still...waiting for me."
Oh my God, he called me not for himself, but for his sister.
He was seriously injured, but he didn't care at all and only remembered his sister.
Jiang Yi was a little touched for a moment.
During the years she was imprisoned in the Jiang family, she had always depended on her wet nurse.
Because of her father and stepmother's attitude towards her, the food that the servants brought to her was always wasted.
She barely grew taller as a child and was even thinner than the boy in front of her.
Every time at this time, the wet nurse would use her monthly allowance to bring her food from outside.
She even felt that the wet nurse had to pay for her care.
After the wet nurse passed away, no one treated her like this anymore.
She has always been touched by such protective feelings, regardless of her own protective feelings.
She thought the little girl must be lucky to have a brother who was so kind to her.
She was also lucky to have had a wet nurse who was so kind to her.
Thinking of this, she said without hesitation: "I'll help you."
She helped the boy up and found that one of his legs was lame.
"Can you walk? Do you want to..." She thought for a moment and said, "I'll carry you."
The boy glanced at her and said, "Forget it, I can do it."
Jiang Yi supported him all the way and then arrived at a dilapidated temple.
"You live here?" she asked.
The boy nodded.
But after arriving at the dilapidated temple, the boy, who had been limping on one leg and had little strength to walk, suddenly walked very quickly and his leg was no longer lame.
Jiang Yizhi was stunned.
"Your legs."
The boy chuckled at her and said, "I was just kidding, little idiot."
As moved as Jiang Yi was then, he was now as shocked and ashamed.
"You lied to me?"
"Little fool, is it my business now whether to lie to you or not?"
The boy's eyebrows flew up and he said, "Come out."
Several ugly and burly men immediately walked out of the dilapidated temple and surrounded Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi's face turned pale immediately.
"You, what are you going to do?"
She had never seen such a scene before. She was so scared that her legs went weak and she had to force herself to stand.
She immediately took out the silver and money she had and threw it in front of them.
"All of this is for you." Jiang Yi said, "I don't have any money left. Can you... can you let me go?"
These people looked at each other and laughed at Jiang Yi's naivety. "What can you do with this money?"
"But I really have no money." Jiang Yi was so anxious that he was about to cry.
"What's there to worry about if you don't have money? We still have people around, right?" Those people said with a lewd smile, "The county magistrate's wife has been captured by us. The county magistrate must pay to redeem her, right?"
Jiang Yi was extremely shocked when he heard that they actually knew his identity.
"You...if you do this, my husband will not let you go."
"Yes, that's it." Jiang Yi nodded involuntarily.
But she felt empty inside.
When she was in Beijing, her mother-in-law told her that as a woman, she should strive to be a good wife and helper to her husband and not cause trouble for him.
She must have caused a lot of trouble to her husband today.
Her husband will definitely hate her even more.
Thinking of this, tears couldn't help but fall.
Those people were also amused when they saw this, "Unless Lord Li doesn't care about your life, he can just not let us go."
"Then we'll sell you to a brothel and make some money."
When Jiang Yi heard the word "brothel", he was so frightened that he couldn't even cry. "Then you might as well kill me now."
When she thought about it, she suddenly felt enlightened.
She didn't say whether her husband would come to save her or not, she just said that she didn't want to implicate her husband.
If she were sold into a brothel, she would be better off dead.
As she thought this, she really made up her mind to die. She looked at the Buddha statue opposite and rushed towards it directly.
