Chapter 7 Merchant Gu Qinniang

The shorter Cai Yan was pulled by her to the old wooden stick carried by an old man. Looking at the strings of red and seductive candied haws inserted into the straw, he actually had the idea of ​​trying it, which was quite a strange thought.

Lu Tao had one hand, and Cai Yan also chose one. The two of them followed the crowd without servants. He also discovered that the silly little maid had a good relationship. Almost all vendors on the street knew her, but their attitude towards him was a little cold.

Cai Yan didn't care much, but just followed the little girl, as if in memory, following Sahuan's son, just acting as a follower who paid the bill. Soon after, he found sadly that he had no qualifications to pay the bill, and all his money was in Sahuan's purse.

While paying attention to the double-ring bun in front, observe this era of food and snacks.

There are quite a lot of delicacies in this era, and the food in my memory is almost the same in this era, including meat and vegetable buns, fried dough sticks, spicy soup, oil tea, pancakes, tea eggs... everything is available. Of course, some foods such as popcorn and French fries are impossible. Just when he turned to look for the little girl again, he didn't find it, and he felt inexplicably nervous.

"Green Peach--"

I would scream in surprise when I used myself. The next moment, I saw a girl with double-ringed hair and a girl squeezed out of a crowd, and a bitter smile appeared on her face...

"Young Master, come quickly! Someone bullied Sister Gu—"

Seeing her waved her hand repeatedly, Cai Yan felt a headache. He had suffered a loss in his memory and had some shadows in his heart. He didn't want to squeeze into the crowd. Looking at her excited energy, his mind felt ache and his words were a little puzzled.

"Don't make a pile of things, as it's the easiest to suffer losses..."

"Young Master, save Sister Gu... Liu Tuzi! My young master is here, so why don't you let Sister Gu go? Be careful that my young master will ask someone to hit you!"

He was dragged into the crowd by the green peach. When he heard her scream, Cai Yan was stunned. He was crowded with people watching the fun. The crowd suddenly dispersed, revealing the heads of several mates, round necks, soap-coat yamen runners. The leading man was five feet and seven inches tall, with a blue-black mark on his left cheek, which looked particularly eye-catching. He looked like a matchmaker. He was just seeing him pulling a woman. The woman was slightly shorter than the man and dressed similarly to an ordinary woman. The flour and black gray on his cheeks covered some of his appearance, but in his eyes, it could still be seen that he was indeed a "sister" woman.

Liu Tuzi, who was about to lock Gu Qinniang, was stunned. After waiting for three months, he finally waited for the opportunity. He was once out of reach of a beauty and would not care about Lu Tao's little maid, but Cai Yanou Xiaowu was different. Seeing Xiaowu Yanou, he was indeed standing in front of him, grabbing Gu Qinniang's big hand like a scorpion, and instantly let go, and his body couldn't help but bow down.

"Five...Five Yanei...Little...Little...Little didn't know that Miss Gu is from Yanei, so she deserves to die!"

"Play..."

Liu Tuzi looked at him with a few big mouths, and felt everyone was looking at him. Cai Yan frowned slightly, looking at the captain like a soldier in front of him, as if he had suffered a loss, but what happened to "Miss Gu" and himself? He frowned slightly, and was confused in his heart, and knew that this was not the time to ask the bottom line.

Cai Yan casually sorted out Su Bai's son and said with a smile: "Public law enforcement should be the first priority. Is this young master's person the same as others in the word "public". It is also a crime for the prince to violate the law. This young master has no fame and no duty. How can he let Captain Liu depose the public for personal gain?"

Before Lu Tao could speak anxiously, Cai Yan said again: "Captain Liu is in the public servant. I thought he was a military man before. You should know the strictness and rules of the military law, and the public servants are the same! But... I saw the woman in front of me with a good appearance and pure eyes as water. She should not be a cunning person who touched the law. Why did Captain Liu lock her up and hold her?"

"Go back to Yanei..."

"Young Master, Lu Tao knows Lu Tao knows!"

Liu Tuzi knew very well who the little man in front of him was. Not to mention him as a small yamen runner-up captain, even Tang Ke, the governor of Hangzhou, would not dare to offend him easily. He knew even more that the real consequences of listening to the word "rules" inside and outside...

Liu Tuzi didn't dare to think about the consequences of offending the Cai family. He sweated heavily on his forehead. He was about to hold his fists, but Lu Tao was impatient and said with a small mouth. Cai Yan then realized what was going on.

Things are not very complicated. "Sister Gu" is making naan bread in the street. The man who looks like a gangster behind Liu Tuzi ate naan bread, but he thinks it is difficult to swallow the naan bread. Not only does he not pay for the naan bread, he also has a dispute with the woman and is beaten by the woman.

"Young Master, Liu Qi is just a scoundrel, so bad!"

"Young master, look at Liu Qi's head, then look at Sister Gu's body. Liu Qi's arms are thicker than the Young Master's waist. How could Sister Gu hurt him? Those who are shouting are all the rogues from Liu Qi's gang, so bad they are so bad!"

Lu Tao pointed at the people in the crowd. Cai Hua glanced at Liu Tuzi, Liu Qi and several constables one by one, came to the broken "table" with a smile on his face, picked up a naan bread from the ground, and took a few random shots.

"It's all made of sweat, it's a pity to waste it..."

As he said that, he put the naan into his mouth. As soon as he took a bite, his mouth was chewing and his face showed some bitterness. He didn't know how the woman in front of him made naan. It would be fine if it could break his teeth. The key is that it had an inexplicable bitter taste. He might have never eaten such a naan in his life.

"To be fair, it's not ordinary bad!"

As he said that, he delivered the nibread that he had eaten to "Sister Gu" with a face full of flour.

"Others pay money to buy cakes, and the cakes should be swallowed more or less."

"The five yamen are fair, I'll just say..."

Liu Qi was very happy and responded loudly, but before he could speak, he looked at the cold eyes and was afraid to shut up and dared not speak again. Cai Yan stood in front of Liu Qi with expressionless expression.

"The gangsters are also divided into different levels. Ruoyan, Grandmaster Cai, is a top gangster in the Song Dynasty, and you are only the lowest level, not the same as the one."

Cai Yan's mouth was disdainful, raised his hand to point at Gu Qinniang with a weird face, stared at Liu Qi and said, "This woman is charming and beautiful. If she is willing to put down her figure and be boastful, she will have a lot of powerful people to crush you into powder! People can be greedy, can be stubborn, can be arrogant, but they cannot be blind, and they will die."

Liu Qi was sweating coldly, and then he remembered Gu Qinniang's identity as a courtesan. To be a good person does not mean that he could not find the powerful and powerful person who was willing to vent his anger for her.

Cai Li ignored Liu Qi, who was as pale as if dead, and walked to Liu Tuzi, who was also sweating profusely, and clasped his fists slightly.

"The law is nothing more than human feelings. Governing the country according to law means governing people. People have five emotions and six desires, and they also have mercy and sympathy. What does Captain Liu think?"

Liu Tuzi felt uneasy and hurriedly clasped his fists and lowered his body, his voice trembling constantly.

"Five...Five yamen teaches...the lesson is..."

"Captain Liu was joking. This young master was just dressed in white and was not qualified to teach Captain Liu a lesson. Liu Qi was fine. Although this girl lost some tables, chairs, pots, pans, spoons, etc., she couldn't spend a lot of money. She took a step back and the matter was settled. How about it?"

"It's settled! Liu Qi is willing to settle it!"

Before Liu Tuzi could speak, Liu Qi spoke in sweat. Liu Tuzi dared not be dissatisfied. Cai Yan said "white-clad civilians" in his mouth, but every time there was another three words "I am a young master". Three words are no big deal. Countless people in the world used three words, but the invisible things behind them are very different. No one dared to underestimate Cai Jing, the traitor who stood at the top of the Song Dynasty.

The onlookers watched one layer after another. After Cai Yan entered the venue, no one dared to interrupt easily. After he waved his hand and said, "It's all gone", no one dared to continue watching the fun. He also used and personally felt the horror of power for the first time.

The ground was in a mess, and Lu Tao's little mouth was pouting high. She was very dissatisfied and let Liu Tuzi go, Liu Qi and others gently. Cai Yan cleaned up twice and found that there was nothing intact to clean up. She moved a wooden pier that could not be broken and sat in front of the little girl who was secretly sulking.

"A discerning person can tell what happened. I don't believe it. Sister Gu is so naan that she can even sell it. Which one does not make steamed buns and pancakes first?"

"Young master, you all know why you still have to help those bad guys? Humph!"

"Well... let's say that, if they dare to bully you like this, even if he is the prefect of Hangzhou, I will find a way to chop off his head, even if he is shameless and vicious, he will vent his anger for you!"

“…”

"Do you know why?"

"No...I don't know!"

"hehe……"

Cai Yan mentioned her funny double-ring bun and smiled and said, "Because Lu Tao is my master, because you stay by my master's side all day, my master can stare at you all day long, with the Cai family's plaque pressing, no one dares to provoke it easily."

"But your sister Gu is not good~ We have to beat them, so they can only bear it. But the reason for them is that your sister Gu. If you don't watch you every day, you must be your sister Gu. Even plundering and killing people is possible. Now it's different. If you don't offend someone to death, you will take a step back and the matter ends here. Sometimes, the board held high is more scary than hitting it on your butt."

The little girl didn't know if she could understand it, but Gu Qinniang looked a little solemn.

"Okay~ I'll give all the money in your pocket to your Sister Gu, just think that this young master has smashed your Sister Gu's business."

"I'm not the young master!"

Lu Tao pouted and was dissatisfied. Gu Qinniang hurriedly waved his hand and refused and said, "Five Yanei has helped Qinniang a lot, how dare Qinniang take Yanei's money?"

Cai Yan didn't want to laugh, but looking at her image, she couldn't help but laugh.

"Miss Gu, don't refuse. If you don't accept it, Lu Tao still doesn't know when it will be angry or dissatisfied. Let's talk about it..."

Cai Yan looked down at her and pointed at her Baixian, and said with a smile: "The girl is not a vendor at all. She looks like a girl to make naan bread... Although she admires her strength, she also knows her plight at this time."

"Yeah, Sister Gu, just accept it. The young master still has a lot of money!"

Listening to Lu Tao's words, Cai Yan rolled his eyes again, but said, "Miss Gu, please accept it. If... I'm really embarrassed, just think that Lu Tao borrowed it from the girl. If you have money in the future, you can repay it to her."

"but……"

Cai Yan looked at Gu Qinniang again and looked at the old man behind her with an uneasy look.

"Miss Gu is not a vendor, and is not suitable for selling goods. Miss Gu does not have the mercy and cleverness of the vendor, and has a disagreement. She needs to think of another way..."

"Young Master...Young Master, Sister Gu is so amazing. She is the courtesan of Cuiyun Tower and can write poems. Her wife has praised her!"

Lu Tao gently pulled his clothes, using his thoughtful bass, and saw that he was a little confused and stunned, so she hurriedly reminded him again.

"Young master, school, school..."

He was a little surprised when he heard the word "Caigong". Lu Tao was even more stunned when she mentioned the word "School", but the person looked at Gu Qinniang with a white face.
