The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

Chapter 70 That’s not a mole

The little beggar opened his eyes wide, looking at the palms full of gold and silver jewelry, he was completely stunned, "Didn't my sister invite someone to treat grandma last time? She also bought clothes for grandma and me, a pile of fine fabrics, and rice and flour... But the rice and flour and those fine fabrics were stolen, and the house couldn't be locked to prevent theft. Fortunately, only grandma's medicine was stolen."

After all, you can’t drink it even if you steal it.

"It's okay, keep it." Li Xiying said softly.

The little beggar's eyes were red, and he didn't know what to say with gratitude. He remembered that his grandmother had asked him to kneel down and kowtow when she expressed her gratitude last time, so he knelt down naturally this time, bang bang bang, and kowtowed several times. "Thank you, sister."

This time he will definitely dig a hole to hide these things so that no one can steal them!

Li Xiying helped the child up and said, "I am just fulfilling my promise. You don't have to thank me."

She looked at the drawing on the ground not far away and couldn't help asking, "Did you draw that?"

The little beggar nodded and said, "I drew a little bird out of boredom."

"Why does the bird have hands? And a mole on its head?" she laughed.

A mole?

Suddenly she thought of something.

That day, a painter on Chang'an Street painted her portrait in order to start business, and finally gave her ten gold coins.

Could it be that she made the dough from this?

"Sister, that's not a mole. How could a bird have a mole?" The little beggar grinned.

Li Xiying also smiled and said, "Sister, you must have seen it wrong."

Therefore, all her movements during this period were watched, so the woman could easily find Prince Xian's mansion and bring her to this remote corner on the pretext of being invited by the prime minister's wife.

If this is true, the fourth uncle had foresight in arranging a secret guard for her. I am afraid that her life will be in danger in the future. Since he painted the face in order to replace her, he would do everything he could to make full use of it. He might not do it the same way as today - killing people to silence them.

……

At this moment, an uninvited guest came to Shanluo.

The uninvited guest dragged Shanluo out of the embroidery workshop shouting loudly.

Shan Luo's ears hurt so much that he looked at the person in front of him in horror, "Ah... Grandpa?"

He cursed loudly and kicked him, "I was locked up in prison, but you lived comfortably and never came to see me once. I was counting on you to come every day to bribe the officials, but you were just hoping that I would die in prison, right?"

Shan Luo was so scared that she kept shaking her head, but her face was still burning from the slap. Before she could say a word, she was hit by punches and kicks again and again. The familiar pain swept over her, and she was so terrified that she could only let it go.

The embroiderers in the embroidery workshop were all women, and seeing this scene, they dared not make a move, until the boss's wife, who was feeling better today, came out and frowned and shouted angrily, "Who is making a scene here?"

Seeing the thin and weak appearance of the boss's wife, the good father couldn't help but sneer: "I teach my daughter a lesson, what does it have to do with you? Now I come to take my daughter home, are you trying to stop me?"

The lady boss said coldly: "Take your daughter back, I have nothing to say, but if you hit my embroiderer here again, don't blame me for being rude!"

As the lady boss spoke, several male laborers appeared behind her. They looked very strong. Shan's father immediately lost his confidence and said, "I'm not hitting anyone. I'm just... here to take my daughter back. Is it okay if she quits?"

The lady boss didn't buy his tricks. She pulled Shan Luo over and winked at her, then said, "Is he really your grandfather? If not, we are not afraid of him! If he dares to hit you again, I will have him taken to the authorities!"

When the good father heard that he had to see the official, he swallowed his saliva unconsciously, his legs trembled uncontrollably, and his arrogance was instantly exhausted. He flattered: "Oh, what's the point of seeing the official? This is my daughter. I don't feel sorry for her being alone outside. Taking her back is also for her own good..."

The proprietress ignored him and asked Shanluo again: "Do you know him?"

Shan Luo looked up at her grandfather's earnest eyes. He had scars on his face and his legs were a little lame. He must have suffered a lot in prison. Even though he was not her biological grandfather, he had raised her for more than ten years. She couldn't say the word "unrecognizable".

Seeing her nod, the proprietress had no reason to protect her anymore, so she asked softly, "Then do you want to go back with your grandfather?"

Seeing that Shan Luo didn't say anything, Shan's father pulled her over and left, "Come back with me quickly. The house was originally in the hands of the bad guys, but now someone has helped us get it back. Go back and thank your benefactor! Oh, next time I teach my daughter a lesson, I have to do it behind closed doors at home. If outsiders mistakenly think that you are not my daughter, it will cause a big misunderstanding!"

The proprietress looked at the father and daughter walking away and could only sigh twice.

When Shan's father brought Shan Luo home, there was indeed someone sitting there. He was said to be a benefactor, so he must have paid a large sum of money to help Grandpa get out of prison.

The man looked middle-aged. He looked Shanluo up and down, his eyes slashing around like knives, making people feel very uncomfortable. He said, "With a little training, beauties like this in brothels can be cash cows. The customers are all rich people, and the tips they give are enough to feed your family for several months."

Shanluo stepped back, his heart pounding and his nails unconsciously digging into his palms.

The adoptive father waved his hand and said, "Don't joke with me, benefactor. I would never sell my daughter to a place like that. I was drunk last time and I regretted it afterwards. Please be magnanimous and don't joke with my daughter."

The benefactor laughed a few times and said a few words. The good father asked her to kneel down and thank him. She thanked him as he was told. He gave the good father a strange look and left.

After seeing that the person had been gone for a long time, Shan's father asked Shan Luo who she had been with for so long during the time she came out of the brothel.

Shan Luo answered truthfully. Shan's father had a knowing expression on his face. It was obvious that he had known about it for a long time. He asked just for the sake of formality. "Now I need your help with something. Are you willing?"

Shan Luo didn't know when Grandpa became so polite, she said timidly: "Grandpa, just say it directly."

Shanfu finished speaking in a low voice, and Shanluo shook his head repeatedly.

He added: "I didn't ask you to do anything. Just a few words are enough. It won't have any impact on her! You know, she is a princess of a country. Is there anyone who can harm her?"

Shan Luo still shook his head: "Grandpa, she is a princess and also my benefactor, I cannot be ungrateful..."

The kind father slammed the table, frightening her. He pointed at her angrily and said, "Well, if that's the case, you can go to the brothel to earn money and repay my benefactor's debt of gratitude for me! Otherwise, how can there be such a good thing in the world? Humph, your grandfather almost died in prison, do you know? If it weren't for him, would I still be alive to come back?"

"In fact, I have been out of prison for a long time. My benefactor has a lot of money. As the saying goes, money makes the world go round. What can't he do?"

As he spoke, he warned, "Don't think that everything will be fine if you hide in the embroidery workshop. The proprietress of a small embroidery workshop is just a grasshopper in someone's hand. Isn't it easy to catch her? A few days ago, my benefactor paid someone to give her a try. I didn't expect that she had an official as a backer, but officials also have to listen to money! If you dare to go back to the embroidery workshop, I will give it a try. It doesn't matter where you go. Even if you hide at the ends of the earth, I can easily pull you out! Then more than one person will be implicated!"

Shan Luo looked at her father in disbelief. Was it because of her grandfather's benefactor that the embroidery workshop had been so busy these days and almost closed down?

Who is his benefactor? Why would he resort to such drastic measures? He started with a nobody like Grandpa, just for the princess?

The owner of the embroidery shop treated her very well. The village had finally regained its vitality during this period. If it closed down because of her, where would all the embroiderers go? Some had no parents, some were physically disabled, and some had a large family to support... Rather than saying that the embroidery shop was a place for business, it was better to say that it was like a charity, providing work, not being excluded, and being able to earn money through one's own efforts.

Shanfu said that it didn’t have much impact on the princess. Is it really that it had no impact?

She was still thinking when her father slapped her again, his eyes red with anger, "Still thinking? Your mother is an ungrateful bastard, I raised you for nothing? If you continue to hesitate, how can I repay my benefactor? If it doesn't work, I'll send you to a brothel, so I don't have to worry about you being an unfilial daughter!"

After thinking it over and weighing the pros and cons, she agreed. She asked again, "Grandpa, are you sure it won't have any effect on the princess?"

He said impatiently: "If I say no, then it's no. Stop talking nonsense!"
