Hold the thick thighs tightly [My father is a traitor]
Chapter 15 Salesman
Xiao Yining didn't go to the clan school after all, but was ordered not to enter Leng Yi's room. Wan Niang was also not allowed to enter, and the food was brought in by Sister Li. They both knew that Lin Yuzan was angry, so they obeyed.
But Xiao Yining would still hide by the door and peek at Leng Yi, wanting to see where he was from and whether he was from the same place as her. She also wanted to get some fresh air with him, as she was also from the future.
However, her father's warning was still ringing in her ears, so she felt that she had to stay alive.
Although she didn't want to admit it, time traveler No. 1 died because of talking too much.
She can keep her secrets well, but can No. 3 do the same? I doubt it.
However, she cannot tell this secret, but she can still tell others.
Leng Yi smiled as he watched the little girl peeking at the door again and again, probably wanting to play games with him.
Yes, which child can be patient? The mistress of this family is still making money and has no time to take care of the child. Children in ancient times were miserable. They didn't even have a decent toy.
"Uncle..." A soft voice came from the window.
Leng Yi quickly looked towards the window and saw a bunch of little hair jumping there. He quickly stood up and reached out of the window to pull Xiao Yining, "Why are you jumping on the stool? What if you fall?"
Little Yining looked at the stool under her feet helplessly. There was nothing she could do since she was short and could not reach the window at all.
"Go down quickly, or I'll tell your mother." Leng Yi's warning voice sounded from the house.
Little Yining pouted and said softly, "Uncle, I won't dance anymore."
"Yeah." But Leng Yi didn't dare to let go of his hand. He stretched his head and said in a gentle voice, "Don't do this next time. You're not a good boy, okay?"
"Sister Qing is the best." Little Yining said with a smile.
So children are cute no matter what they do, especially the little girl who has inherited the advantages of her two parents. Her bright eyes touched Leng Yi's heart again. His face softened a little. "Go pull some grass and I'll make you a little bug."
"..." Xiao Yining froze instantly. What kind of hobby does this guy have? He actually makes insects for girls.
But when she thought that this person's brain was probably not very good in his previous life, she didn't care and simply ignored the words, and shouted softly, "Uncle, there are bad guys in our village."
Leng Yi frowned and looked at her "Bad guy?"
In his eyes, there are few good people in this village.
Little Yining nodded and said softly, "The peddler is here. My father said he is a beggar who kidnaps children and sells them."
So you have to be careful.
Her father said a few days ago that he would go to the provincial capital to report the situation. Perhaps his father did not take him seriously, but the peddler came anyway and was not arrested.
As for why Lin Yuzan did not go to the county magistrate who was in charge of the case, Xiao Yining thought that this must be a big case and the county magistrate could not handle it.
In fact, this was not the case. Lin Yuzan had a grudge against the county magistrate in his previous life, so of course he would not watch him get promoted. Moreover, the county magistrate was not a good guy. If it were not for the abduction of his concubine's brother in his previous life, he would not have investigated it at all.
"Your father lied to you, he is not a bad person." Leng Yi smiled and didn't take it seriously, but got a look from her saying you are so stupid. He watched her carry a small stool and run to find her mother happily.
He raised his head and looked outside. The peddler was just outside the yard. Several children were following the adults in picking things. There were a dozen or so small gadgets hanging above the stall. They were very cute and all made of wood, so they wouldn't break easily and were very popular.
Lin Yuzan was also staring at the peddler. Next to him stood a middle-aged man with a scar on his face. If you look closely at his waist, you can see an arc-shaped mark.
"Is this the peddler that Lin Tongsheng mentioned? There's nothing wrong with him." Chen Lang said in a deep voice.
Lin Yuzan nodded and said, "Master Chen, look at his cargo box. It is three inches higher than those of other peddlers and a circle larger than others. It can hold a lot of things."
These peddlers walk the streets and roam around in various villages. People only pay attention to the goods and don't even look at his cargo boxes.
Chen Lang looked at the scholar next to him.
"In recent years, children have often gone missing in our neighboring village, and it was always after the peddlers came here," said Lin Yuzan.
Chen Lang frowned. "Does Lin Tongsheng know the approximate number?"
"When I was teaching in the clan school, I heard that there were more than 20 people. Lord Chen can go to County Magistrate Jiang to check. There are even more children reported missing, and none of them have been found."
Chen Lang was silent. So many children were missing, but County Magistrate Jiang did not report it. It was a big case.
"Don't worry, Mr. Lin. I will report this matter to the prefect."
"Then thank you very much, Lord Chen." Lin Yuzan bowed with both hands and watched Chen Lang leave.
Chen Lang took a deep look at the peddler who was selling goods, called over a subordinate who had followed him and whispered a few words to him, then rode away on horseback.
Linjia Village was well-known far and wide, and local gentry often came to visit. Chen Lang's arrival and departure did not attract anyone's attention, and they thought he was a relative of Lin Yuzan's wife's family.
In her previous life, Wan Niang often bought small items from the peddler, and she knew when the peddler would come. He was lucky to invite Chen Lang to come, and he actually met him in the county town on a business trip. This man was the head of the government office, hated evil and cared about the people, and was much better than the worthless Jiang County Magistrate. Later, he was promoted to work in the Dali Temple because of his great achievements, which showed that he was quite capable.
Lin Yuzan had met him several times in his previous life, and although they were from the same hometown, they had never spoken to each other.
We are destined to meet in this life.
Lin Yuzan had told his family about the peddler's behavior as a beggar, but only little Yining took it seriously. Wanniang didn't take it to heart either, thinking it was just something her husband said to coax the child. She brought her daughter to the peddler's stall, picked up a small hair flower and pinned it on little Yining's little nosegay. Both of them looked adorable at the same time.
"How much did this guy spend?"
The peddler looked at Xiao Yining and his eyes lit up. "Madam, you have good taste. I brought this pair of head flowers back from the city. They are not expensive, 5 cents a pair. The young ladies in the city all love to wear them."
Wanniang opened her purse, took out the money and gave it to the peddler, then left holding her daughter's hand.
The peddler stared at the little girl for a while, then put on a smile and greeted other people.
"The daughter-in-law of the Fushun family is having a hard time making ends meet. She only bought a hair ornament for her baby for 5 cents."
"Fushun and his wife are gone, there is no one to supervise them, how can young people be the head of the family?"
"How generous! Isn't Zan going to take the imperial examination? If she spends like this, even a mountain of gold and silver won't be enough. Could it be that she needs the support of the clan?"
"Of course not. Don't forget that Zan is still teaching in the clan school and has a good relationship with the clan elders."
"It's not like there haven't been precedents before. If the clan has money, then we should give subsidies to those who really need it."
"..."
"..."
Little Yining didn't know that her mother only bought her a pair of hair flowers, which would cause gossips in the village. Her hands unconsciously touched her head. She didn't like wearing flowers on her head, and she wore two at a time. This reminded her of the character in the famous martial arts drama she had seen in her previous life, Sha Gu. The only difference between her and her was two red buttocks.
"Sister Qing is so pretty." Aunt Lanhua, who was still embroidering a handkerchief at her home, praised her.
I really don’t understand your aesthetic sense.
