Chapter 9 There's a Fool Called Little Li
The little fool used his fingers to pick the table and stared at the empty bowl in a daze.
Hua Jingyao asked, "What are you thinking?"
The little fool raised his head, looking confused: "...Sister, these... are really unpalatable."
Did you eat three bowls of rice if it is unpalatable?
Hua Jingyao stood up and walked out of the flower room. Shi Ding stepped forward, pressed the little fool's shoulder, and said, "Let's go, you follow me in the future!"
The little fool said loudly: "I want to follow my sister, sister!"
The voice was shrill and a crying voice.
Hua Jingyao stopped and turned around. The little fool stretched his arms and was about to pounce on him. Shi Ding hugged him from behind, and the little fool kicked his four hooves: "Sister, sister!"
Hua Jingyao is helpless!
...
The little fool got his name, his name was Xiaoli, Hua Xiaoli.
Shi Ding felt very strange. Why did the girl name the little fool Xiaoli? Shouldn't she be called Xiaodog?
"The fox's nose is more sensitive than a dog!" Hua Jingyao said.
After leaving the flower room, I saw Shi Yi who was rushing over.
"Miss, that's done."
Hua Jingyao smiled, did she admit it so quickly?
She asked, "Speak up."
"Zi Su's brother Qiu Fuer had a beginning and end with the daughter-in-law of the Xu family in Tieguo Hutong. He was caught on the spot by the Xu son. The Xu family wanted to report to the official position. Later, the two families agreed that if they did not report to the official position, they would have to pay 100 taels of silver. In recent years, Zi Su has gained a lot of benefits by the girl and the family is well-off. Aunt Qiu immediately took 100 taels of silver. Perhaps the Xu family was happy to take the money from the enemy, so they regretted it and asked to add 200 taels of silver to sell their wife to their family. Otherwise, they would still have to report to the official position."
Shi Yi looked at Hua Jingyao's face, and saw that she looked calm and did not look angry, so he continued: "According to the law of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there was no husband and a man who was raped and ninety-six. The wife of the Xu family had a husband. After these ninety-six sticks, Qiu Fu'er's life would be gone. Moreover, the contracts for their family were all in the eldest princess's mansion. If it were something else, the eldest princess might still maintain it, but such embarrassing things, Zi Su is a person around the girl. The eldest princess will not tolerate it, and maybe someone will hand it over to Shuntian Mansion and ask them to severely punish it."
Hua Jingyao frowned slightly: "Do you know the eldest princess won't protect them?"
Shi Yi hurriedly said, "Miss, have you forgotten about Madam Wang? That's right, that happened two years ago. You were still young at that time, so it should be that you don't remember."
"It's okay, tell me, I really don't remember." Hua Jingyao touched her ears. She really couldn't remember what Madam Wang had mentioned in her sister.
"Madam Wang is your wet nurse, and it was the most decent person in the mansion. Two years ago, Madam Wang's son Guo Xiaoping fell in love with a shop in Changping. The shop offered 150 taels, but he only gave 50 taels. The female boss asked him to argue with him. He touched the female boss, and later carried the girl out and said that he was the girl's wet brother and was a family with the girl." Shi Yi sighed and said, "The eldest princess found out about this. Let the eldest brother and the young man go to Changping. We deprived Guo Xiaoping of both legs and arms...Madam Wang cried to the girl and encouraged the girl to go to the eldest princess to plead with her. The eldest princess said nothing in front of you. After that, someone pulled out Madam Wang's tongue and rushed out of the mansion."
"Ah?" Hua Jingyao was surprised. No wonder Shi Yi kept peeking at her when he said this. It turned out that the Madam Wang had used her sister. She gritted her teeth, "When doing it well, doing it well! You should do this for such shameless people!"
Shi Yi was relieved. The girl had really grown up. Princess Zhaoyang didn't want her daughter to know about these things. She only said that Madam Wang's family had returned to her hometown. But that's all, the girl still cried so hard that her eyes were red. She took a pack of silver and asked her to send it to Madam Wang. Unfortunately, she didn't find Madam Wang's family, so she had to do it.
Hua Jingyao said, "Zi Su is also a person around me. The enemy family is considered an old man in the eldest princess's mansion. People outside don't know about Madam Wang's family, so their family must know. Therefore, after the accident, they are not only afraid of reporting to the official, but also afraid that this matter will reach the eldest princess's ears."
"Yes, that's it. The eldest princess is strict in managing the family. The Qiu family dare not. The servants of the eldest princess' mansion live in the back alleys. The Qiu family dare not make any statement, for fear that they would be able to sell all the valuable things in the family quietly. But even so, they still couldn't make up enough for the five hundred taels. Aunt Qiu has a sister named Sun. She sold her in the same person as her in the early years. The two knew each other since childhood. Later, the sister followed a soldier. Sun gave birth to a son for the soldier. Although she still couldn't carry it into the mansion, she also ordered slaves to call her maids and had a lot of money in her hand.
Aunt Qiu asked Miss Sun to come to Miss Sun, but I don’t know what the two of them said. Within two days, the eldest princess went to Guangji Temple to do rituals and the girl came to the other courtyard to live in a short time. The girl knew what happened later. The third brother went to find Miss Sun according to the address mentioned by Aunt Qiu. Unfortunately, we were one step late. The house where Miss Sun lived was empty. The house was originally rented, and the landlord didn’t know when the family moved out.”
Hua Jingyao raised her eyebrows and smiled, "You are really going to find that lady Sun? It's a waste of time. Now, you can take a few people to check the Xu family and see if the Xu family has anything to do with the second prince. Go quickly, so as not to leave the Xu family too."
Shi Yi was stunned for a moment, agreed, turned around and walked quickly.
Hua Jingyao sighed. It turned out that at this time of his previous life, even Shi Yi could not do anything.
"Sister eats candy, but I won't be angry." A hand stretched out from behind, and there was a ginger candy in my palm.
Hua Jingyao's attention was on that hand, slender and distinctive. This was a well-maintained and beautiful hand.
She held the ginger candy and put it in her mouth, and asked, "Where did the sugar come from?"
Xiaoli pointed behind her and said sweetly: "It was given to me by Sister Xingzi."
"What Sister Xingzi?" Hua Jingyao was puzzled.
Xiao Ai said with a blushing face: "My mother Liu in the kitchen gave me a few apricots. I haven't eaten it yet, so I put it in my sleeves. I don't know why, but I made this stupid..."
"My name is Xiaoli, Hua Xiaoli!" Before Xiaoli could finish her words, Xiaoli had already stared at her eyes and corrected her fiercely.
Hua Jingyao asked, "Did you see her take Xing'er?"
"I smelled it. Sister Xingzi smelled like apricots!" Xiaoli said proudly.
Hua Jingyao smiled, she patted Xiaoli on the shoulder and said, "Then you follow me and smell what's going on with that person, let's go."
