Chapter 72: The girl who came to pay back the money(1/2)

 “What’s going on?”

Li Chengqian stood up and looked out.

Xiao Chuzi reacted quickly and walked out.

He is a slave in front of Li Chengqian.

But in front of these servants and maids, he is the master.

Looking at the panicked servant outside, Xiao Chuzi frowned and asked, "What's the matter? I wonder if your highness is going to rest?"

Seeing Xiao Chuzi come out, the servant was startled and said hurriedly: "Butler Zhou, a little beggar came outside, and he must say he knows Your Highness."

"We stopped her and she rushed in."

"We have nothing to do."

"Know Your Highness?"

"joke."

Xiao Chuzi snorted coldly: "Let's go, take me to see."

When Xiao Chuzi walked out with the servant, he saw a group of servants gathering a ragged little girl in the middle.

The servants and servants were once banned by Li Chengqian. Unless an emergency occurs, they must not attack the people.

Therefore, they are just surrounding each other and dare not make extraordinary moves.

Xiao Chuzi walked out and looked at the little girl outside. He felt that the other party looked familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

"You said you knew Your Highness?"

The little girl nodded timidly: "Yes."

Immediately afterwards, she carefully took out a small copper plate from her arms: "I'm here to pay back the money."

Pay back the money?

Who will pay for the money?

Xiao Chuzi raised his eyebrows: "Do you want to pay your highness back?"

"Uh-huh……"

The little girl nodded like a chicken pecking at the rice: "Before, I was sick, and it was His Highness who paid me money to save me, so I want to pay it back."

Just as Xiao Chuzi was about to say something, he heard a voice coming from beside him.

"Didn't you say it, you don't have to pay it back?"

Li Chengqian walked out from behind Xiao Chuzi.

Xiao Chuzi, who was still imposing just now, suddenly became half as powerful as he stood behind Li Chengqian respectfully.

"No."

"My mother said that I must pay what I owe others."

The little girl shook her head and walked forward with the copper coin in her hand.

But before she could get close, she was blocked by the servants around her.

Looking at these ferocious men, the little girl retreated timidly.

After thinking about it, she simply put the copper coins on the ground, then looked up at Li Chengqian: "I'll put the money here. Remember to take it away, otherwise it should be picked up by someone else tomorrow."

After saying that, the little girl looked at the men around her and then walked away slowly.

Li Chengqian stepped down the stairs and picked up the string of copper coins from the ground.

Looking at the little girl's thin back, Li Chengqian couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Forty or fifty copper plates hung on it.

She should have to make this money for a long time...

He has better luck and lives in the royal family as soon as he comes to this world.

If he hadn't been to the north with Li Shimin, he might have never tasted hungry.

The girl named Yuan Yuan in front of her is a luxury for her to have a full meal since she was born.

After a long time, Li Chengqian smiled bitterly and raised his head: "What a silly girl."

...

Leave Li Chengqian's mansion.

Yuan Yuan returned to the thatched hut where she lived.

When she walked into the door, a woman was already waiting there.

The woman is about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old.

Because she does rough work all day long, her skin is very rough and her palms are thick and short.

When the daughter entered the door, the woman showed a kind smile: "Have the money been sent back?"

"Um."

Yuan Yuan sat by the earthen kang, lowering her head.

"What's wrong?"

"Unhappy?"

The woman gently stroked her head: "You must pay back the money you owe others. This is the duty of being a human being."

"Mom, I'm not unhappy because of the money."

The woman raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"The money is gone, I can make money."

Yuan Yuan said a little aggrievedly: "It's just... their servants don't believe me, and they even called me a little beggar..."

"It's because of this."

"It doesn't matter if someone says a few words."

The woman smiled and took her into her arms: "We live our own lives, what do we care about? Are we unhappy or unhappy when we live together?"

"Happy."

Yuan Yuan leaned in her mother's arms and shook her little feet playfully: "No matter where, as long as my mother is with me, I will be very happy."

The woman chuckled, and took out two small pastries from the package next to her and handed them to Yuan Yuan.

"For your sake, my mother will reward you."

When Yuan Yuan saw the pastry, she suddenly felt her eyes lit up and said happily: "Dao Cake!"

She gave one of the date cakes to her mother's mouth: "I'll eat them together."

"Mom has eaten it."

"No, no, mom must eat it together, otherwise I won't."

The woman had no choice but to take a bite and put away the remaining half.

Seeing this, Yuan Yuan finally started to eat her own jujube cake. She took a bite and smiled brightly, "Thank you, mom."

The woman looked at her with a smile.

Seeing her daughter's sensible appearance, she felt more and more distressed.

She was originally a dowry maid from a wealthy family, and she married her husband's family with the lady.

At that time, she was not allowed to like her, and she was sent to her just to make up the number of people.

But for her, it was nothing, she was just living a different place.

But she never thought that she would be looked at by her son-in-law without any sign of anything.

My son-in-law has been involved in a few times but has no results.

He actually asked someone to give her medicine and forced her to take advantage of her coma.

Later, the lady found out that the lady was furious and asked someone to beat her up and drove her out of the house.

The lady is from a noble family and the son-in-law dare not disobey her.

Moreover, in the eyes of these wealthy families, she is just an optional item.

And this is not the worst...

Not long after she was kicked out, she found out that she was pregnant.

Nine months later, she had nowhere to go, so she could only give birth to a daughter in a dilapidated temple.

Since then, the mother and daughter have depended on each other for life.

Yuan Yuan is also sensible and never causes trouble for her.
To be continued...
