Because he missed the salesman's family, Zhu Yingchun did nothing else after recuperating. He habitually looked outside the house every day and wandered around the front yard, as if he had lost his soul.
And Zhu Yingchun's behavior was not in vain.
Soon, she got her chance.
Outside the mansion, the familiar sound of salesmen hawking came again.
Qin Laosan's voice is very familiar to Zhu Yingchun.
Zhu Yingchun, who was originally listless, suddenly became brighter.
She said to the concierge on the side, "I'm going to buy some needlework from the salesman at the door."
The porter hurriedly said, "Cousin, if you have anything to do, just ask me. Where can I bother you to run over?"
This person is the old lady's sweetheart, and the concierge would not dare to offend her.
Zhu Yingchun quickly pushed open the doorman and ran away.
Zhu Yingchun's voice came to the concierge's ears, "I'm just going to buy something at the door, why don't people go out?"
He ran away in the blink of an eye.
The concierge was anxious, and he did not dare to argue with Zhu Yingchun. He could only watch Zhu Yingchun walk out of the door. He hurriedly followed him, fearing that Zhu Yingchun would get lost.
Fortunately, Zhu Yingchun actually stopped a salesman, and the concierge breathed a sigh of relief.
On the side, the salesman Qin Laosan had critical eyes when he saw Zhu Yingchun.
When he saw Zhu Yingchun, who had regained some of his plumpness and was wearing silk clothes, Qin Laosan's eyes showed some tenderness.
Zhu Yingchun wears gold and silver, but she looks different from the past. Presumably, after climbing to the county head's palace, she will have more money in her hands, right?
Thinking like this, Qin Laosan became more and more reluctant to let go of Zhu Yingchun's money tree.
Immediately, when Qin Laosan's eyes came into contact with Zhu Yingchun, they became even more tender and affectionate, making Zhu Yingchun's eyes turn red.
"Girl, what do you want? I'll get it for you."
Qin Laosan was rummaging in the salesman's box. Zhu Yingchun knelt down and pretended to rummage along with him.
Not far away, the concierge took a few glances and stood aside waiting for Zhu Yingchun to finish selecting the goods.
And when the concierge was not paying attention, Zhu Yingchun and Qin Laosan also secretly had a private conversation.
When a man coaxes a woman, he just opens his mouth to say nice words as if they are free of charge.
"Chun'er, my children miss you so much. Why are you so cruel? You left our whole family behind to enjoy wealth alone. You...how are you willing to leave me? You don't know that I
Will you be sad?"
Putting it this way, it seems that Zhu Yingchun's escape was actually Zhu Yingchun's fault.
Zhu Yingchun said hesitantly, "Third brother, that day, I heard in a trance that your parents were going to kill me to eat meat. I... I was afraid, so I could only run away."
Qin Laosan's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said in an increasingly gentle tone, "Chun'er, how could my parents be such people? It's too late for them to feel sorry for you. You must have heard wrong.
".c
"But, but, I heard it clearly."
"What my parents said was that they killed the rabbits caught in the back mountains and gave you the meat to eat. They said that they wronged you. You have followed me for so long and opened up branches and leaves for our family. You must have only listened to the first half of the sentence.
, and ran away. You don’t know how worried my parents were after you left. Chun’er, if anything happens in the future, you have to tell me carefully and don’t run away right away. You don’t know how worried I am.
ah."
After saying this, Zhu Yingchun felt even more moved.
At this time, Qin Laosan said again, "Chun'er, when will you follow me home? The child misses his mother."
"I...I also want to go back, but, but..."
"Do you dislike being poor and prefer being rich? Now that you have a good life, do you look down on me?"
Zhu Yingchun said hurriedly, "No, no, how could I? I really don't dislike poverty and love wealth."
Qin Laosan seemed to have suffered a great deal of grievance and said, "Chun'er, you are the only one in my heart. We were so happy together before. We will be equally happy in the future."
Let's be together happily, you... think about it carefully. It's getting late today, and the family is still waiting for me to buy rice and noodles to cook, otherwise the children will be hungry, so I will go back first. In a few days
, Third brother comes to see you again."
After finishing speaking, he walked back without waiting for Zhu Yingchun to answer.
Zhu Yingchun said hurriedly, "Third brother, take these back and buy some food for everyone first."
While talking, he secretly gave Qin Laosan the silver bracelet on his wrist and the hairpin in his hair.
Qin Laosan weighed the weight of the jewelry, a satisfied smile appeared on his lips, then picked up his pick and turned away.
As for Zhu Yingchun, after Qin Laosan left, she belatedly remembered something. Wasn't it already impossible to untie the pot in Qin Laosan's family? Zhu Yingchun must know how poor this family is.
But now, how can this Qin Laosan still have money to buy a salesman?
That would cost a lot of money.
Zhu Yingchun just waited a few days before asking Qin Laosan again.
A few days later, Qin Laosan came secretly again.
After Qin Laosan arrived, he coaxed some money away from Zhu Yingchun with a burst of sweet words.
After he had money, he didn't even work as a peddler. He went straight to a low-grade brothel and went there to fool around for two days. Then he picked up the peddler and went to scream outside Jiang Dadi's house.
As he asked for money again and again, seeing that Zhu Yingchun couldn't squeeze anything out of his body, Qin Laosan coaxed Zhu Yingchun to start stealing things.
The last time, Zhu Yingchun took away all of Grandma Jiang's savings, and then she ran away with Qin Laosan.
After discovering that Zhu Yingchun was missing, the Jiang family was naturally anxious. Especially when Aunt Jiang and Uncle Zhu came to pick up Zhu Yingchun, the Jiang family became even more uncomfortable.
Zhu Yingchun was lost in their Jiang family's house. No matter what, Jiang Sangu and others must be given an explanation.
At this time, Grandma Jiang even got a lot of complaints.
Sangu Jiang complained that Grandma Jiang didn't take good care of her, and complained that her nephews didn't take good care of her. Although she didn't say it explicitly, the meaning was always revealed in her words.
In short, after saying this, Brother Jiang looked very ugly.
Brother Jiang is just a big boy of fourteen or fifteen years old. He has to study medicine and visit patients every day. He is not in the mansion during the day, so naturally he doesn't know what is going on at home.
He spent money and effort, but only ended up complaining. It's strange that he looks good.
At the same time, he was also dissatisfied with Grandma Jiang.
After all, when he found Zhu Yingchun, he was the first to send him back to Zhu's house. Grandma Jiang stopped her and said she felt sorry for her granddaughter, so she left Zhu Yingchun in the mansion.
And what's the use of trying to keep a woman who has an affair?
She always hooks up with men outside and steals and empties her relatives' belongings.
Brother Jiang made up his mind that he would not care about Zhu Yingchun's affairs in the future. He turned around and in order to give an explanation to the Zhu family, he had no choice but to ask for help from Jiang Hexi.
As the county lord, Jiang Hexi is also the lord of Yuzhou City, so it is relatively easy to find someone.
After waiting for three to five days, Zhu Yingchun was found.
At this time, Zhu Yingchun rented a house and was living with the salesman Qin Laosan again.
The house Zhu Yingchun rented was in a slum in Xicheng. She and her salesman rented a dirty and broken yard. This yard was a large courtyard. There were seven or eight families in the yard, and each family had five, six, or seven or eight people.
People were crammed into a small house, and the people were mixed together. It didn't look easy.
After knowing Zhu Yingchun's new address, Brother Jiang did not go to pick him up directly. Instead, he told Sangu Jiang, Uncle Zhu, Grandma Jiang and others about the address in detail.
Brother Jiang said, "I have found the person. Now I will take you to pick him up. In this way, it will be clear and the person will be returned to you intact."
Brother Jiang also has a temper.
Sangu Jiang forced out a smile and murmured, "Brother, Sangu is so impatient.
Son, knife mouth, no bad intentions, Third Aunt, Third Aunt is just worried about that child... After all, it is the flesh that fell on me, even though she is a bastard, Third Aunt can't help but worry about her."
Brother Jiang said "Yeah" and didn't say much. He just said, "Let's go."
After finishing speaking, he immediately walked out of the house.
Outside the house, he arranged a carriage, and Sangu Jiang and his wife, Zhu Shitou, and Grandma Jiang all got on the carriage together.
The car went around and around and soon arrived at the slums of Xicheng.
This slum area is full of cow dung, horse dung, dog feces, puddles and other muddy objects. As soon as you walk in, you can smell a stench.
Compared with the neat and spacious streets in the East District, the roads here are small, narrow, and muddy.
In short, after seeing such a road, you can imagine what kind of life Zhu Yingchun lived.
After the carriage went around the alley for a while, the driver finally stopped.
Brother Jiang took the lead to get out of the carriage and said, "We're here."
Sangu Jiang, Uncle Zhu and others hurriedly walked out.
When they walked into the large courtyard nearby, Sangu Jiang's expression did not look good.
Brother Jiang has read all the information investigated by the secret guards. The life Zhu Yingchun lived before was truly not a human life.
Especially when he saw the information that it was suspected that the salesman's family had almost eaten Zhu Yingchun, his daughter-in-law, as an animal because of a lack of food, his expression became even worse.
This Zhu Yingchun is also a strange person. Facing such a family, he still has to continue to step into such a pit of fire.
However, since he was an outsider after all, Brother Jiang had already decided not to say anything else.
The group of people walked towards the yard. In the cold and cold room on the west side, Brother Jiang pointed at it and said, "This is it."
Sangu Jiang and Uncle Zhu hurriedly walked toward the house.
The room was not tightly closed. It was such a winter day. There was not a single charcoal spark in the room. The window sills of the room were also leaking air. Looking around the room, there was nothing but a broken bed and a broken box cage. There was nothing else.
property.
On that broken bed, Zhu Yingchun took a baby and was coaxing her in a soft voice. Because the weather was too cold, both she and the baby were shivering, and their faces were visibly livid, which didn't look good.
