Do you know: I’m Xu Jiazi

After hearing the envoy’s report,

Anmei felt her mother's hands tremble with fear.

Of course Anmei knew what was going on.

The lessons learned from the Yuan family were still spread by word of mouth in Beijing, so why did the same thing happen to her Xu family?

What happened to Xiao Wu in his own family was different from what happened to the Yuan family. Xiao Wu saved people outside the Divine Protection Watch, and countless people were watching.

"Mom, me"

Sun patted An Mei and said, "Don't worry, tell me, what's going on?"

"Madam, the steward at the door said that the woman wanted to give our family money to repay her kindness. The steward didn't dare to ask for the money casually, so she knelt at the door!"

"What money?" An Mei looked at her mother in confusion.

The news about Shenbo Guanwai has begun to spread in Bianjing.

So when the people in Quyuan Street knew that the woman kneeling outside the gate of Yongyi Hou Mansion was thanking her for saving her life, the people spread the word to one and then four, calling friends to come and watch.

There are vendors from nearby streets who leave their stalls to their family members or acquaintances to look after, and come to watch on their own.

The crowd of onlookers attracted the curiosity of people who didn't know what was going on and loved to watch the excitement.

Looking at the woman who was lying on the ground with a package in front of her and her face buried in her arms, the people around her shared the information they knew:

"It's said that the brother from the Hou family was hit by a flag pole!"

"What nonsense are you talking about! Who told you this?"

"Then you! Say it!"

"That flag pole is a hundred kilograms of solid wood, and Wu Lang of the Hou Mansion can bear it with one shoulder!"

"ah?"

"I killed twenty horses with a hatchet to prevent the flagpole from hitting the crowd!"

"Ouch!"

"Jun Rongzhi and the musicians from Jiaofangsi were all so surprised that they wanted to compose music for Wulang on the spot!"

"real?"

"After saving so many people, I heard that the medical officer in the palace checked his pulse. Guess what?"

"how?"

"My face has changed!"

"Could it be that you don't have long to live?"

"What bad words! I'm fine!"

"Then, is this girl the one who was rescued under the flag pole?"

"With this covering my face, I don't know what he looks like!"

"It should be pretty good-looking. You might want to join the Marquis Mansion!"

As everyone was talking, the side door of Xu's house opened wide, and Qingcao, the female envoy beside Xu Zaijing, came out, saluted the woman kneeling on the ground and said, "This girl is polite."

The woman lying on the ground quickly raised her head after hearing the sound.

"Ah!" Qingcao exclaimed softly.

The people who were watching were also curious about the girl's appearance. When she raised her head, everyone also looked over.

They were also shocked because the woman had a purple birthmark on her left eye socket, covering a large area around her left eye and deep into her temple.

Hearing the exclamations from Qingcao and the surrounding people, the woman lowered her head in shame and inferiority.

Qingcao also knew that she was a little rude, so she quickly bowed and said: "Girl, I'm rude, I'm Wulang's female servant Qingcao, please get up and speak."

After finishing speaking, Qingcao saluted the people around him and said, "I would also like to ask all the neighbors to be witnesses."

The people around them raised their hands and spoke.

"nature!"

"Don't worry, girl, we will definitely see this matter clearly!"

Hearing Qingcao's words, the kneeling woman raised her head and glanced at her and said, "I haven't seen Miss You today."

"Today, my servant did not follow the young master to the west. If you have anything to do, please get up and tell me! If you can't kneel down, it may seem sincere, but it is a bit coercive."

"The little girl is right!"

"Yes!"

"Girl, stand up and speak!"

"No, I'm not, it's not coercion." As she spoke, the woman stood up.

Then Qingcao raised his head to see her oval face.

"so tall!"

"Ouch"

"Oh, I couldn't see it when I was kneeling on the ground."

The woman hunched her shoulders, bent over and whispered: "I am the person on the Shenbo Kanban flag pole. Your master saved my life. My mother asked me to bring the reward I received today to you." Thank you. It’s a shame that the government will not take charge of things.”

Hearing the woman's words, Qingcao looked surprised, then squatted down and said: "Please wait a moment, girl. I can't be the master of this matter."

"oh."

Upon hearing the response, Qingcao turned around and ran quickly towards the inner courtyard.

In the mistress's courtyard, Mrs. Xie was also sitting in the main hall with Mrs. Sun. Listening to Qingcao's breathless story, the two ladies looked at each other.

Sun said: "Qingcao, you said this girl was on the flagpole??? How dare she go up to such a high place?!" Of course she knew how high the flagpole was outside Shenbo.

"Mother-in-law, this is hard-earned money, let's..."

Mrs. Sun nodded and said: "What you said is that this is a good girl who knows how to repay kindness. In this way, we will accept the money!"

Hearing Sun's words, Xie was surprised.

Sun smiled and said: "Qingcao, ask Qingyun to go to the warehouse to get ten kilograms of cotton and deliver it to the girl, and escort her home! There is no saying that you will not return a gift after receiving a thank-you gift."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xie looked at Mrs. Sun with admiration.

Outside the Hou Mansion,

More and more people were watching, and many pointed at the woman with the birthmark on her face.

This made her feel like there was a thousand pounds on her shoulders, and she shrank her shoulders more and lowered her head, trying to hide her face.

"Out!"

"Someone is coming from the Hou Mansion."

Hearing the words of the people around her, the girl quickly looked up.

She was still the young envoy, but behind her was a tall young man. After Qingcao went out, he bowed to the woman, and then bowed to the neighbors and vendors who were watching the excitement, and then said:

"Girl, your thank you gift, my lady has spoken, I will accept it."

Qingyun glanced at the woman while Qingcao was talking, and was attracted by the birthmark on her face.

Hearing this, the girl's eyes showed a happy look, and she hurriedly handed over the bundle in her hand, but she still lowered her head and did not dare to raise her head.

Qingcao looked at her with a smile and did not reach out.

It was quiet for a while.

Qingcao looked at Qingyun beside him curiously, wondering why Qingyun didn't catch it.

"Brother Qingyun???"

"Ah?" Qingyun came back to his senses after hearing Qingcao's reminder.

Qingyun looked at Qingcao and said, "Oh!"

With that said, Qingyun took the baggage from the woman's hand, which contained mostly copper coins.

After giving the baggage, the girl still bowed her head and bowed in a nondescript manner, and whispered: "Then, I'm leaving. Please help me thank the young master of your house for saving your life."

However, Qingcao grabbed the woman's hand and said loudly: "Girl, you repay the favor to the Marquis' Mansion and offer a gift, but the Marquis' Mansion also wants a gift in return."

Hearing Qingcao's words, the people around him nodded.

They whispered to each other that the Hou Mansion was open to the public.

After Qingcao finished speaking, he smiled and poked Qingyun, who was distracted again.

Qingyun: "Oh oh oh, come out."

Hearing Qingyun's words, the servant of the Hou Mansion came out with a small donkey. There were two large but not heavy bundles on the donkey's back. There was white velvet at the place where the bundles were tied. leakage.

"It's cotton!"

"How many pounds does this weigh?"

"This is two bags of silver!"

The woman waved her hands and said, "This, I can't have this. Mother will scold me if she finds out."

"Girl, then the Hou Mansion can't ask for this thank you gift." Qingcao replied with a smile.

The woman thought for a while and didn't know what decision she had made. She nodded and said, "I thanked the Marquis."

Qingcao smiled slightly and said, "Well, this is Brother Qingyun who is with our young master. Let him take you back."

After Qingcao finished speaking, another carriage came out of the door, followed by two nuns.

Seeing the carriage, the woman refused to sit on it, even if Qingcao said to return the baggage.

Qingyun said at this time: "Then don't sit down. The nuns and I will send this guy back on foot. Go and ask Scarface to bring my horse over."

The boy at the door heard the order and trotted to the stable.

Qingcao nodded after thinking for a while, and then bowed to the steward and the boys.

Then the servants in charge came to the door and started to disperse the crowd by saying things like "let's go", "thank you", "I'll go to your place for dinner when I have time", etc.

Qingyun took the reins from Scarface's hand and said with a smile, "I'm sorry to bother you two, mamas."

"Brother Qingyun, you're welcome."

"Girl, let's go." Qingyun said.

The woman nodded, but she didn't know which leg to move.

Qingyun and the two nuns nodded. The two nuns smiled and took the donkey and walked in front.

Qingyun held the horse and made an invitation gesture to the woman. When the woman followed, Qingyun walked side by side with the woman a little abruptly, but there was a horse on the left, which blocked some of his sight.

"At that time, I always thought you were a man." Qingyun turned his head and looked at the birthmark on the woman's face.

Hearing Qingyun's words, the girl glanced at Qingyun in surprise, and then quickly turned back.

Then he turned back and looked at him carefully, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"You are too tall. I have been looking for a man of the same age with a birthmark on his eye, but I didn't expect you to be a girl."

Looking at the woman's confused eyes, Qingyun continued: "I have been begging at Wanshengmen seven or eight years ago."

Listening to Qingyun's words, the girl looked at him with shock in her eyes. After carefully examining her brows, the woman said hesitantly:

"Are you that kid named Yin?"

When Qingyun heard this, his eyes were full of smiles and he said: "Yes. But then I went to look for you, but I couldn't find you anywhere!"

"I always dress up as a man, so that I can have less trouble when repairing the roof. I also go to Wansheng Gate to do work nearby, and I have only been there a few times."

"I didn't expect that I would find you like this."

In Xu Zaijing's small courtyard, listening to Qingcao's "accusation" of Qingyun's "distraction", Xu Zaijing was a little puzzled. Qingyun has always been reliable and alert over the years. How could he have been so distracted?

In the evening,

Xu Zaijing was shirtless, and the wounds on his waist and ribs were being gently plastered with grass.

When Qingyun came back, he knelt directly in front of Xu Zaijing and said: "Master, I have someone I want to marry."

"hiss!"

Xu Zaijing felt a pain in his waist.

Feel sorry,

Delayed.
