Su Qingwan wanted to tease Yaqing, but then she remembered that she had something else to do and needed to find a way to escape, so she stopped speaking in a coquettish voice.
After clearing his throat, he said, "This is for you. There is also this 12,000 taels of silver note. Take this token to He's pharmacy." Su Qingwan handed it to Ya Qing.
A piece of paper filled with medicinal materials, a 10,000 tael silver note, and a token from the He Mansion. "If they don't want to pay after seeing the token, just tell them to pay you at their cost price."
In the future, you will need a large amount, so you can't take it for free every time.
Ya Qing was still pretending to be calm, and had no intention of taking the things from Su Qing's hand. He was the prince's secret guard, and he could use anyone, especially the crazy woman who was corrupting his prince.
Su Qingwan stamped her feet and began to speak in a coquettish voice: "Chichi~ Look at him~"
Xiao Jingchi clenched his fist and put it to his lips and coughed, "Yanqing, do as the Crown Princess says."
Yaqing took the things reluctantly and got off the carriage with a sullen face.
Su Qingwan made a face at Ya Qing's back, "Little guy, I won't give you a bite of meat when I earn money in the future!"
The more Xiao Jingchi looked at the girl in front of him, the more his heart fluttered. These people had never met a girl more interesting than her.
He Guizi, who was sitting on the carriage, was enjoying the scenery along the way. Tonight he would be sent to the reincarnation place to be reborn, and he still had many regrets about this life.
Just as he was feeling melancholy when Su Qingwan slapped him down with her shoe sole, He Guizi entered the carriage. Su Qingwan said as she put on her shoes, "Where is that ruined temple? Lead the way."
She was a little forgetful of the way and had forgotten it.
He Guizi naturally knew which dilapidated temple Su Qingwan was talking about, but he decided to do something for this unreasonable benefactor for the last time.
Every time they reached a fork in the road, He Guizi would tell the direction, and Xiao Jingchi would repeat it to the coachman.
About half an incense stick of time later, they arrived at the gate of the dilapidated temple. Su Qingwan jumped off the carriage, patted the wrinkles on her clothes and walked in. Xiao Jingchi did not ask why she came here, but just followed silently.
He just wanted to see with his own eyes what this young lady of his who went out early and came back late all day was doing outside and attracting a group of wild butterflies all day long.
When she opened the door and walked in, she saw only eight skinny children, but not the woman who had robbed her banknotes.
"Where is your boss?" Su Qingwan asked.
Seeing several children huddled together and shivering, and no one responded to her, Su Qingwan remembered that she was dressed as a man today.
So she pulled out the hairpin on her head, and her black hair instantly fell down. She wiped her forehead, and a lifelike phoenix tail flower facade appeared.
One of the older children recognized Su Qingwan and said tremblingly, "After you left, she never came back."
He Gui looked as if he had known this all along, "See? Thirty thousand taels, even a ghost would be tempted, let alone a little beggar."
Thirty thousand taels is enough for an ordinary family to spend in a lifetime.
"Hasn't she cared about you guys anymore? Did she tell me where she went?" Su Qingwan didn't listen to He Guizi's mumbling.
The little boy shook his head. "She bought us some cakes and left."
Su Qingwan looked at the three or four dry biscuits carefully placed on the table and sighed, "Okay, are you willing to come with me?"
A group of little guys looked at each other, only shrinking more tightly. The traffickers who once kidnapped them were also looking at them with kindness and love.
"If you have trusted me, then you can come with me. I will provide you with food and drink every day, and let you learn to read and practice martial arts."
"Of course, it's not free food and drink. You need to help me do some work every day, and you will be paid if you do a good job."
When the children heard this, their eyes lit up immediately. They were willing to learn to read and practice martial arts, not to mention even a bite of leftovers.
It's just that they met too many bad guys along the way and were afraid of being deceived. They didn't want to believe that there was such a good thing in the world, so they just stared at Su Qingwan cautiously.
There was a little kid in the middle, about five or six years old. Because he was too young, he didn't know how to be afraid. When he heard that there was food and drink, he took small steps towards Su Qingwan.
The older children wanted to stop it, but the kid was almost up to Su Qingwan, so they didn't dare to go forward.
Su Qingwan picked up the little guy and took out a snack wrapped in oil paper from her arms. She was afraid of being hungry, so she just took it.
The little girl took the snack and took a bite, her eyelashes fluttering and her round eyes made Su Qing's heart melt when she looked at her.
"Sister, eat too." The little kid put the snack next to Su Qingwan's mouth and said in a cute voice.
Su Qingwan took a small bite and said, "Okay, sister is full, you can eat it."
The little girl twisted her butt in Su Qingwan's arms. Su Qingwan knew that she wanted to get off, so she put her down.
Then she walked over to her little friends and distributed the snacks to everyone with her hands.
Su Qingwan sighed again, "What a world~"
Xiao Jingchi hadn't spoken a word since he entered the dilapidated temple, but he clenched his fingers even tighter, and his hatred for Xiyue deepened. If the Queen of Xiyue hadn't suddenly gone crazy and attacked Northern Zhou, there wouldn't have been so many displaced, abducted, and sold children.
"If you have made up your mind, you can follow me now."
Su Qingwan waited for a long time but didn't see any response, and the youngest child was also held back by several people.
This is because he has suffered so much and has such a vigilant heart. Su Qingwan did not annoy him, but said lightly: "If you have made up your mind, go to Prince Ping's Mansion to find me. No one will stop you."
They had been living in the Shen Mansion before, and these kids might really be driven away if they went there. Now they have vowed to move back to Prince Ping's Mansion, and no one will make things difficult for them.
Su Qingwan stopped waiting after she finished speaking. It would be a waste of time to continue waiting, so she put down the ten taels of silver and turned back to the ruined temple.
When the carriage reached the corner, the coachman suddenly braked and pulled the reins. The two people in the carriage lost their balance and almost fell down.
"Don't you want to live anymore?!" the groom roared.
It's not easy to come here to do a job. If I hit someone, one day's rent won't be enough to compensate me, and I might even have to face a lawsuit.
Xiao Jingchi lifted the curtain and took a look. He saw a man in tattered clothes, covered in mud, with frizzy hair. He couldn't tell whether he was a man or a woman. He was standing in the middle of the road with his legs open and breathing heavily. It was obvious that he had been running for a long time.
"What do you want?"
......
Passersby looked at Xiao Jingchi through his frizzy hair without saying a word.
Su Qingwan curiously lifted the curtain and looked over. Seeing the person standing in the middle of the road, she smiled and asked, "Whose grave is this person digging?"
The man standing by took a deep breath and swallowed. "How did you know, Miss?"
Su Qingwan glanced at the ghost behind the woman and said calmly, "Let's talk in the car, He Guizi, entertain your kind."
