Three points are destined, seven points depend on face

It’s almost the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye.

Xia Chuntao decided to take Zhao Chunsheng to Rongcheng to purchase goods again. This time, you need to prepare enough supplies. After all, the new year is approaching and it’s time for people to spend a lot of money.

Xia Chuntao was very lucky that God did not throw her into the war era. Although Dai Viet is a feudal dynasty, there are no wars or major disasters, and the people's lives are relatively easy.

At the end of the year, most ordinary people can also spend some of their spare money.

This time, when stocking up, there were tails hanging on the back of Xia Chuntao's freight truck. Last time, Xia Chuntao thought it was the government, but this time she obviously felt different. Which government only escorted her goods?

After much thought, Xia Chuntao realized that only the benefactor who saved her would do this.

It's not that she is narcissistic. Among the people she knows, there are only three people who have the strength to seek protection from guards: the savior, Ling Qingxuan, and Wei Tingzhou. Oh, and there is also the sly-looking county magistrate Wang Zhihe.

Mr. Wang Zhihe doesn't need to think about it. Xia Chuntao is now avoiding him for fear of not getting him. It doesn't help if he looks like her brother. She can't stand having a jealous younger brother-in-law.

It's impossible for Wei Tingzhou. The child has returned to the capital long ago.

Ling Qingxuan, although he was a bit venomous, was also a pretty good person. At least he helped the children find a good husband. Xia Chuntao would be grateful to him for this all her life.

But Prince Ling doesn’t seem to have the temperament to do good deeds without asking for anything in return, right? Besides, not many people knew about her "gathering good things", only her few good friends. How could Ling Qingxuan know?

After thinking about it, Xia Chuntao couldn't think of anyone other than that benefactor who would protect her along the way.

The guards only said it was "the master's arrangement" and told Xia Chuntao to "don't worry" without saying anything more. He moved Xia Chuntao with a good meal and did good deeds without asking for anything in return. Where did this fairy brother come from?

Of course, there was a little hiccup during the purchase process.

It's like this...

After successfully purchasing the goods, Xia Chuntao took time to go shopping the day before going back. She wore men's clothes and walked around the world not once or twice, so she didn't let Zhao Chunsheng and Lao Yang follow.

Xia Chuntao bought a bunch of food and walked to the inn carrying big and small bags. A girl ran towards Xia Chuntao and bumped into Xia Chuntao. She grabbed Xia Chuntao's sleeves and said in a trembling voice: "Sir, save me. !”

"I was abducted here by a kidnapper. My home is in the capital. I beg you to take me in first. I will repay you."

Xia Chuntao looked at the girl's clothes and became a little convinced.

Yes, she was still wearing silk and satin, but it was so worn that the original condition could not be seen. She had a pair of satin shoes on her feet, and there were faint traces of beads that had been inlaid on the shoes before. As soon as the girl came closer, she smelled something bad. , it should be because I haven’t showered in many days.

At this time, two men's voices came from behind,

"You bitch, if you can escape, the monk can't escape from the temple. Let's see if I catch her and deal with her properly!"

"That's right, if you hadn't said she was good-looking and could sell her for more money, I would have done away with her long ago!"

"Look for it quickly, don't be nagging."

Xia Chuntao looked back and saw that the two men were not far away from them, and the girl beside her was trembling.

Xia Chuntao blocked the girl's figure with the things she bought and whispered, "Follow me."

Xia Chuntao took the girl around two turns and quickly returned to the inn.

Of course, she didn't know that there were Ling Qingxuan's guards behind her to help her clean up.

After asking the waiter to bring bath water, Xia Chuntao took out his own set of men's clothes and explained: "These are my clothes. They may not be suitable, but the matter is urgent. You put it on first for easy access."

The girl glanced at Xia Chuntao and nodded shyly.

Xia Chuntao didn't pay attention and said, "I'll go downstairs and we'll talk about it after you finish it."

After Xia Chuntao said that, she turned around, but the girl pulled Xia Chuntao's sleeve and blushed a little, "Sir, can you guard the door? I'm scared."

Xia Chuntao guessed that the girl was worried that the traffickers would come, so she moved a stool and sat at the door to act as a doorkeeper.

After everything was washed, Xia Chuntao entered the room and saw that the girl was indeed pretty. Of course, she was still a little bit worse than herself.

Maybe it was because she hadn't eaten enough during this period, and she was mentally tortured, which made the girl look a little sallow and thin.

Xia Chuntao ordered some food to be served for the girl to eat.

Don't tell me, this girl looks like a lady from a wealthy family. Even though she ate a bit in a hurry, she still maintained an elegant sitting posture.

"Young Master, please accept the little girl's bow!" The girl bowed Yingying, and the weak willow helped the wind.

Xia Chuntao felt a little uncomfortable and quickly helped the girl up.

"My name is Yuan Yuliu, and my father is Uncle Chang Shan in the capital. More than a month ago, when I went out with my maid, we were unfortunately robbed by thieves. After many twists and turns, we came here. Thanks to the help of the young master, otherwise, I..."

Yuan Yuliu couldn't talk any more and started to cry.

Xia Chuntao coughed and interrupted Yuan Yuliu's cry, "Miss Yuan, now, the situation is like this. I am not a local. I have to pack my luggage and go home tomorrow. Look, how about I help you?" Contact a merchant in the capital to take you back?"

Yuan Yuliu couldn't cry anymore. She was abducted for more than a month and she was still a concubine. What good outcome could she have even if she returned home?

Yuan Yuliu secretly looked at Xia Chuntao. His benefactor was young and handsome, and he seemed to be in good condition. Why not follow him? It's better than going back and having my hair shaved off to become a sister-in-law.

Yuan Yuliu did not answer Xia Chuntao's words, but only asked: "I don't know the name of my benefactor, and where he lives?"

"My surname is Xia."

Yuan Yuliu waited for a while, but when his benefactor didn't say anything again, he started crying again.

"Mr. Xia doesn't know something. If I go back home now, I'm afraid my family won't want me anymore. I... might as well just die, wuwuwu..."

Xia Chuntao held her forehead, feeling like she had met someone who had trouble.

It’s impossible to take it home, and the landlord’s family doesn’t have any food left! What's more, I just escaped poverty.

Besides, this girl obviously has a family, and she is from a wealthy family. Although saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, there must be a limit to this "rescue", right?

I can't save you from the hands of thieves, so I have to be responsible for you for the rest of your life?

"Mr. Xia, since you have saved me, I am yours, a slave and a maid, and Yuliu is willing to do so."

Xia Chuntao sighed and thought for a while that she might as well be more direct.

"Miss Yuan, to tell you the truth, I am a rural person with several children to feed at home. I came to Rongcheng just to help our boss' shop buy some goods. If you can help me feed pigs, farm and cook, , take care of the baby, then I welcome it, let me do the math... I can pay you one hundred wages per month, but I can't afford more."

Yuan Yuliu's eyes were red and he looked at Xia Chuntao aggrievedly.

This look, which I feel pity for, probably has no effect on a man, but here with Xia Chuntao... it's just a waste of effort to wink at a blind man.
