Chapter one hundred and seventieth life-saving grace
Others saw that the people in the carriage did not know what they said to the leading officers and soldiers. After the leading officers and soldiers came back, their attitude towards Qiao Huaping and the others suddenly changed drastically.
The leading officer and soldier even bowed to Qiao Huaping and said respectfully: "Madam, please wait a moment, there is a noble person who will see you soon."
Others were confused when they saw it, but Qiao Huaping remained silent and didn't say much.
Because of what was said just now, others may not have heard what the noble man in the carriage said to the officers and soldiers, but Qiao Huaping, with his excellent hearing, heard them clearly.
It turned out that the people in the carriage were actually the master and servant pair that Qiao Huaping had rescued earlier.
I just don't know what the relationship between them and this officer and soldier is, but I just heard the officer and soldier call her "Miss" very respectfully.
Then the young girl was heard telling the officers and soldiers that this lady was her savior and asked them to be polite to her first while she went back home to talk to her father before coming back.
Qiao Huaping thought, this girl's family probably belongs to a powerful family in this town?
However, there is no point in thinking too much at the moment, just calm down and wait.
Qiao Huaping took the villagers of Liujin Village to rest nearby.
Seeing that people from Liujin Village were not allowed to pass through, some refugees on the side could not help but mutter a few sarcastic words, saying that it didn't matter if the whole village was fleeing the famine, why wouldn't they be allowed to enter when they got there?
Some villagers from Liujin Village heard this and couldn't help but glare at the refugee.
On the contrary, the refugee puffed up his chest: "What's wrong? You're still glaring at me. I'm wrong? Can you go in?"
The villagers gasped in anger, but they were careful not to start a fight with the homeless man in front of the officers and soldiers.
When the commotion becomes ugly, Liujin Village will still be affected.
Seeing that the villagers did not dare to cause trouble, the refugees became more and more proud, and their voices ridiculing Liujin Village became louder: "...some people, they look human-like, but in fact they are not much like beggars like us. What are they talking about?
ah?"
There was a burst of laughter nearby.
Qiao's painting screen turned sideways.
We are all poor people fleeing famine, and some people ridicule others so much that they wish others could feel the same pain and struggle as themselves and have the nerve to speak out openly.
…
Qiao Huaping and his party didn't wait too long.
About half an hour later, the carriage drove back again, and a young girl jumped out. When Qiao Huaping saw it, she was the maid from the master-servant pair she had rescued earlier.
The maid took a handwritten letter in her hand and handed it to the officer and soldier.
While the officers and soldiers were reading the letter, the maid happily walked towards Qiao Huaping and bowed to her: "Madam, do you still remember my slave?"
Qiao Huaping smiled and said, "Remember."
But he never said a word.
This made the maid feel Qiao Huaping's kindness even more.
After all, on such an occasion, if it were mentioned in public that Qiao Huaping rescued them from the homeless pile, it would inevitably be a bit embarrassing.
The maid smiled deeply: "Madam, my name is Mo Qian. Our young lady's uncle is the county magistrate of Yixiang. In order to repay Madam's kindness, she just asked the magistrate for a handwritten letter and wanted to come here for an investigation.
The first pass will be released to the lady soon."
When the villagers in Liujin Village heard this, they couldn't hide their joy.
On the contrary, Qiao Huaping was very stable and thanked the maid again.
The maid inevitably developed a deeper liking for Qiao Huaping.
She smiled and extended her hand: "Madam, could you please move the carriage? Our young lady would like to see Madam."
They had done him such a big favor, so Qiao Huaping naturally agreed happily.
She followed the maid into the carriage, and inside was indeed the girl who was almost killed by the refugees earlier.
The young girl, with her pearls dangling slightly on her head, sat in the carriage and bowed to Qiao Huaping.
Qiao Huaping hurriedly stopped the girl: "Miss, why do you need to give such a big gift?"
The girl straightened up, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "My surname is Sun, my maiden name is Shi Ke. Madam calls me Shi Ke... The more I think about it after I go back, the more I feel that the person who shouted 'The officers and soldiers are coming' should be Madam
Right? Madam, you saved my life and Mo Qian's, so you deserve a courtesy from me."
Qiao Huaping couldn't help but sigh a little in her heart.
This girl has a delicate heart, but she was too soft-hearted before and almost made a big mistake.
Qiao Huaping did not deny it, and Sun Shike knew better that the person who shouted "The officers and soldiers are coming" and saved the lives of their master and servant was indeed the lady in front of him.
"Didn't you dare ask the lady's name?" Sun Shike was very polite to Qiao Huaping as he spoke, and did not look down on her at all because Qiao Huaping was a woman from the mountains.
Qiao Huaping and Sun Shike exchanged names.
Sun Shike liked Qiao Huaping's down-to-earth and generous spirit. After chatting for a few words, he began to like and respect Qiao Huaping even more.
"At present, some refugees in Yixiang are disobedient and often cause chaos, so Yixiang is doing this." Sun Shike sighed softly, "My uncle and the local guards also had a hard time, so the interrogation was more strict, and the
Please forgive me, Sister Qiao."
Mo Qian smiled meaningfully at the side, quite a bit jokingly. Sun Shike turned his head and saw it, his cheeks suddenly turned red, he raised his hand and lightly slapped Mo Qian twice: "You girl."
Mo Qian giggled and received the two punches from her young lady without dodging. She turned around and explained to Qiao Huaping in a low voice: "My young lady is preparing to get married right now. She will marry in this town in October."
The village is on guard."
Qiao painted the screen clearly.
No wonder.
She smiled and said congratulations.
Sun Shike's face turned red and she said nothing.
After chatting for a few more words, Sun Shike said in a measured manner: "Sister Qiao thinks there will be a lot of things to do here for a while, so Shike won't bother her too much. After Sister Qiao has settled down in Yixiang, Shike will come to thank her again."
Qiao Huaping felt more and more that Miss Sun was really thoughtful after the previous experience.
This was probably because he saw her getting on the carriage in full view of everyone, and preparing her a gift now would be too eye-catching, so he said he would come to thank her later.
Qiao Huaping said: "Miss Sun is too polite. You have helped us Liujin Village a big favor, which is enough."
Sun Shike shook his head and said nothing more.
Qiao Huaping didn't refuse any more, just bowed his hands, said goodbye to Sun Shike, and got off the carriage.
