There is Room For the Poor Daughter

After breakfast, Xiao Yeyang said to Daohua: "Get ready, I will send you to meet Miss Dong and the others later, and then you will go back to Ningmen Mansion together."

Daohua nodded. Today is November 27th, and she has to go back before her grandmother's birthday on the 29th: "By the way, someone helped me before, and I want to see him before I leave."

Xiao Yeyang agreed: "Is it a villager? What's the name? I'll send someone to call him."

Daohua: "His name is Aeon."

Xiao Yeyang got lucky and asked him to call someone.

After a while, Dengfu came back, saying that no one was found in the village.

Daohua frowned: "Impossible, the stone tomb he entered with me before, hasn't he come out yet?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang spoke up: "If he was in the stone tomb yesterday, he would probably have been detained." The people in the stone tomb, whether they were from the Eighth Prince or the villagers who were arrested for making iron and casting soldiers, were all arrested. closed.

At this time, An Yi came over, and seeing that he seemed to have something to tell Xiao Yeyang, Dao Hua stood up: "You guys are busy with your work, I'll go and see for myself, just send someone to show me the way. ."

Xiao Yeyang was a little worried: "How about you still wait for me for a while and I'll go with you?"

Daohua waved her hand: "No, I'm just going to see someone. Now this place is under your control. It's very safe, so there's nothing to worry about."

Xiao Yeyang was silent for a while, and said to Defu: "You and Daohua go there together." After that, he looked at Daohua again, "Be careful yourself, don't rashly pull on the wound on your hand."

Daohua nodded: "I know." After speaking, she walked out.

Defu hurriedly followed.

On the way, seeing Defu leading him towards the center of the village, Daohua couldn't help but ask, "You imprisoned people directly in the village?"

Defu smiled and said, "There is a special cell behind the ancestral hall in this village, and those people are locked in the cell."

Daohua nodded: "Although the villagers in the stone tomb participated in iron-smelting and casting soldiers, most of them were forced. Now that you have locked them up, what are you going to do?"

Defu: "My lord didn't say anything, everything here is estimated to have to wait for the emperor's reply."

Daohua thought about it too, and didn't ask any more questions.

Soon, the two came to the village's ancestral hall.

The entire ancestral hall was closely guarded by Xiao Yeyang's people, and all the guards wore swords and looked awe-inspiring.

Daohua followed Defu to the back of the ancestral hall.

Defu: "Girl, it's a mess in the cell, you wait here, I'll call someone out for you."

Daohua nodded, but after Defu entered, she heard the noise in the cell, stood at the door curiously, and stretched her neck to look inside.

The layout of the cells is very simple. There is a passage in the middle, and cells on the left and right. Xiao Yeyang's people detain the killers and the villagers separately. The killers are locked on the left, and the villagers are locked on the right.

Looking at the crowd of people in the cell, she realized how many people she had fainted in the stone tomb yesterday. She felt fortunate and fearful at the same time.

Fortunately, she shot enough drugs, and the drugs were strong enough. If those killers hadn't been stunned, then she and the villagers would have no idea what would have happened.

Daohua didn't look much, and after knowing the situation in the cell, she withdrew.

Although Daohua just stood at the door of the cell and looked at her, some people in the cell noticed her, including the one-eyed and bald head.

When one-eyed saw Defu entering and leaving the cell, he did not care much about the guards. He knew that the status of this person was not low, and when he saw him personally come to lead AEON out, he suddenly thought about it.

The girl was able to escape before, but was not found by them, fearing that it was related to Aeon.

Thinking of his one-year-old son, there was a deep reluctance in his one-eyed eye. When Aeon passed by his cell, he rushed over, stretched out his hand to block the post, pulled Aeon over, and whispered. road:

"Aeon, for the sake of being good to you and the people in the village over the years, help me and the girl with a word, as long as she is willing to save me and the bald ones, our lives will be hers. "

He had inquired about the situation of the Yan family. They came from a poor family and had a weak foundation. They only got up in the past few years. Such people are not enough to accumulate their own power. They are definitely useful to the Yan family.

Aeon glanced at the one-eyed and bald head, and under the gaze of Defu, who was smiling but not smiling, he neither nodded nor spoke, lowered his head and walked out quickly.

"Girl, I brought you out!"

Defu brought AEON to Daohua.

Daohua glanced at Aeon, then smiled at Defu and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Defu immediately smiled and said, "What is the girl talking about? Being able to do things for you is the blessing of a slave. You say it first, I'll go around, and if anything happens, the slave will come over immediately."

Daohua nodded, and when Defu walked away to talk to the guards, she looked at Aeon: "Are you alright?"

Aeon shook his head.

Daohua took out a pill: "This is your antidote."

Aeon glanced at Inaka and took the antidote.

Daohua said again: "Do you need my help with anything? You have helped me before, as long as I can do it, I will try my best to satisfy you, and it will be your favor."

Aeon pursed his lips and was silent for a long time before he murmured, "Can I follow you?"

Daohua didn't hear clearly: "What did you say?"

Aeon mustered up his courage and looked up at Daohua: "Girl, I want to follow you, I can do anything, and I can eat anything, please accept me."

If Master Cao hadn't reminded him, he wouldn't have dared to mention such a request.

Daohua was a little surprised. She thought that this person would beg her to help him get out of here, but unexpectedly wanted to follow her, pondered for a while, and asked, "Don't you want to go home?"

Aeon smiled bitterly: "My father and my brother died of exhaustion in the arsenal, and now I am the only one left in my family." Seeing Daohua's eyes lowered, she thought for a while and said again.

"I have read books, I can read, and I can do arithmetic. I have been in Sishan Village all these years, because of my bald brother, I have been helping Cao Ye to take care of the ledger, and I have never made a mistake during this period."

Daohua raised her eyebrows: "Really?" After speaking, she paused, "I want to ask you a question, why did you help me before?"

Aeon: ".You are very like my benefactor. When I was eleven years old, I was kidnapped by human traffickers to Zhongzhou. It was a little brother who saved me and others, and gave us silver taels to go home."

If it weren't for this, he wouldn't risk his life to help her.

Daohua was stunned.

Such a coincidence?

It's her who doesn't say it?

Daohua took a closer look at Aeon, um. I really don't have an impression.

Aeon looked at Daohua with a heart, and was very worried that she would not agree. In fact, he saw the little prince in the stone tomb last night, and he had confirmed that this was his benefactor.

Now that he has nothing to worry about, if he can follow his benefactor, it will be the greatest blessing for him.

Daohua was silent for a while: "You can follow me, but"

Aeon was overjoyed at first, and when he heard the word "but", he raised his heart: "but what?"

Daohua: "I can't take charge of this matter. I have to ask the people in charge of you. If they think you are fine, they can let you go, and you can come to Ningmen Mansion Yan Mansion to find me."

Aeon put his heart down, grinned and said, "Okay."

Daohua: "Okay, you went to the stone tomb with me yesterday. I have already told others about this. You don't need to go back to the cell, just go back to the village."

When he was done, he was ready to turn and leave.

"girl!"

Daohua turned around, saw Aeon's expression of hesitating to speak, and asked, "Do you have anything else to do?"

Aeon hesitated for a while, but still said: "Master Cao asked me to help him with a sentence, would you like to hear it?"

Daohua raised her eyebrows: "He asked you to speak to me? What?"

Aeon said quickly: "He said, as long as you are willing to save him and the bald brothers, their lives are yours."

Daohua sneered: "What do I want their lives to do?"

Aeon moved his lips, struggled for a moment, and said, "Girl, I know I'm a little too far ahead, but I still want to say a few words for Master Cao and the bald brother."

Seeing that Daohua was silent, he continued.

"Master Cao and bald-headed brother didn't follow Mr. Fan and the others from the beginning."

"Master Cao used to run a boat. Later, because of a dispute with someone during the delivery, he was blinded in one eye. He couldn't find anything to do and couldn't make a living, so he took refuge with Mr. Fan."

"As for the bald-headed brothers, they all belong to the same village as me. There was a severe drought in the north a few years ago, and there was really no food at home, so I went to work with Master Cao."

"Master Cao is a man of loyalty. Old Fan's people don't take the lives of the villagers as their fate. If he hadn't taken care of him secretly these years, more people would die."

Aeon still didn't respond when he saw Inaka, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

At this time, Xiao Yeyang came over.

Seeing Daohua standing with a teenager, Xiao Yeyang walked over quickly, looked at Aeon, and looked at Daohua: "Is he the one you want to see?"

Rice Flower nodded.

Xiao Yeyang: "Are you finished?"

Daohua nodded again.

Xiao Yeyang took the rice flowers: "Let's go after you're done."

Looking at the two who walked away hand in hand, Aeon didn't dare to say anything more, and could only watch the two leave silently.

After leaving the ancestral hall, Xiao Yeyang saw Daohua frowning in thought, and suddenly asked with a smile, "What are you thinking?"

Daohua thought for a while, then looked at Xiao Yeyang: "The people who kidnapped me asked someone to tell me, saying that as long as I save them, their lives will be mine. Tell me, am I growing old? A good face? Tie me up and let me save them, I dare to think!"

Looking at Daohua's bright eyes, Xiao Yeyang said with a smile, "Why, do you want them?"

Daohua tilted her head: "I want to, but I don't want to. I am indeed a little short of manpower, but can I subdue the one-eyed man?" After speaking, she looked at Xiao Yeyang for proof.

Xiao Yeyang knew that this guy was thinking and said with a smile: "There is something that can't be subdued. With me as your backing, they don't dare to think about anything else."

Daohua pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "Then I must be thinking of my people, conquering them through my own charm, what's the matter with you?"

"Your charm?" Xiao Yeyang looked down at Daohua, looking at Daohua, looking at Daohua with her cheeks puffed up in a villager's dress, she couldn't help laughing, "Excuse me, Miss Yan, are you so cute? What's the charm, why didn't I know?"

Daohua got angry: "Xiao Yeyang, are you itchy? Would you like me to loosen it up for you?" After speaking, she raised her uninjured left hand, squeezed her fist and shook it in front of him.

Xiao Yeyang grabbed Daohua's hand in a funny way, held her hand, and led her forward: "I will investigate the people you mentioned first, and if there is no major involvement, then you can decide whether to stay or not. ?"

Daohua nodded and said nothing.
