Chapter 139 A Madman and a Cripple Are the Best Match (3)

The alley was deep, with light only at the exit.

I saw the bright light right in front of me, but when I walked over, it changed its position and went farther away.

A dark light flashed in Jiang Wan's eyes, and she followed him.

Xiao Shan always felt uneasy. She pulled Jiang Wan's sleeve and whispered, "Princess, let's go back. It's so dark and scary here..."

There were walls all around and it was pitch black. Xiaoshan didn't dare to look up. She forced herself to look at the road under her feet, but she still felt uneasy.

Jiang Wan grabbed her hand and led her away.

"Since someone is trying to trick me into going over there, wouldn't it be a waste of his kindness if I don't go?"

After walking for a while, Jiang Wan could finally see the exit.

"Princess, right there!"

Xiao Shan was no longer afraid at this time, and she pulled Jiang Wan forward instead.

She quickened her pace, just wanting to get out of this dark alley as soon as possible.

Out of the alley——

I saw a beautiful woman in white clothes, without any jewelry on her head, and her black hair was only tied with a white ribbon.

She was kneeling on the ground with a piece of white paper in front of her with a few big words written on it - "Sell yourself to bury my father."

Hearing footsteps, she quickly raised her head and looked at the person coming with hope in her eyes.

Jiang Wan also saw her face clearly at this time.

The woman had a beautiful face, with eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like autumn water, and slightly pale lips, but that did not destroy her beauty. Instead, it gave her a hint of pitiful purity. Her eyes were full of affection in her every frown and smile, and when she moved she was like a willow swaying in the wind, with a unique charm.

She is a rare beauty in the world.

The beauty was looking at Jiang Wan, with a few tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, about to fall.

Her eyes were red, and she said timidly, "Miss, can you help me?"

Jiang Wan first signaled Xiao Shan to keep quiet, then looked at her calmly, her tone without any fluctuation, and asked, "What do you want me to do for you?"

After hearing this, the woman's eyes turned red again, like a little rabbit.

"I..." The woman bit her lip, and it seemed difficult for her to say what she was going to say next.

She remained kneeling on the ground, her head raised and then lowered again.

Although Jiang Wan was not as passionate as the time-traveling girl when she first came to this world, she also didn't like others talking to her on their knees.

If you have something to say, just say it. If you ask for help, just kneel down without saying anything.

If I am unwilling to help you, will you remain on your knees forever?

Besides, it rained in Beijing last night and the soil was damp. It would be bad for a girl's health to kneel on the wet ground for too long.

Jiang Wan walked over, stepped around the papers in front of her, and helped her up.

"Get up and talk."

Xiao Shan was so anxious that she stamped her feet. How could the princess condescend to do such a small thing in person?

After Jiang Wan helped the man up, he took a step back, crossed his arms across his chest, and waited for her next words.

The woman bowed to her gratefully and spoke slowly, "I was originally the daughter of a farmer in this mountain, and my father and I lived together. A month ago, my father went hunting in the mountains and rolled down the cliff. When he came back, he was injured. I hired a doctor to treat him, and I spent all my family wealth, but I still couldn't keep him."

At this point, the woman was heartbroken and began to cry with her face covered.

She pulled a handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped the tears from her face.

After calming down a bit, she continued, "My father passed away, and I don't even have the money to buy him a coffin. I had no choice but to come here, thinking that if I could sell my body and get twenty taels of silver to bury my father, it would be worth it even if I had to work like a slave."

The woman's heartfelt words were deeply touching.

Even Xiaoshan couldn't help but wipe away tears when she heard it.

Jiang Wan still had a calm and unperturbed expression on her face, and she even felt like laughing.

It’s not that she is cold-hearted, it’s just that this woman is really interesting.

What normal person would sell himself to bury his father? Why would he come to this remote place in the middle of nowhere instead of going to the busy streets?

She was about to sell herself to bury her father, so why was she still holding a delicate handkerchief? If Jiang Wan was not mistaken, the material used for the handkerchief was the Yanluojin, which was popular in the capital recently. The time-traveling girl had just made a new Yanluojin dress a few days ago. Even though she was a princess, she only got one piece of cloth.

The embroidery on the handkerchief was exquisite, and the peonies embroidered on it were gorgeous and lifelike.

Although he only took a quick glance, Jiang Wan could conclude that this handkerchief was no ordinary item.

How could such a precious thing appear in the possession of a person who is so poor that he has to sell his body for twenty taels of silver?

This is a bit too ridiculous.

Jiang Wan's eyes were suddenly dazzled, and she closed them subconsciously.

When she opened her eyes, she saw the small bronze mirror hanging around the woman's waist.

It must have been the sunlight that shone on this small mirror just now, causing Jiang Wan to be dazzled by the reflected light.

Interesting, really very interesting.

It seemed that the woman had just moved?

Xiao Shan came over from the side, took Jiang Wan's arm, and whispered in her ear: "Princess, why don't we help her? She is so pitiful..."

Jiang Wan could only sigh that the little girl was too well protected by the time-traveling girl. She didn't know whether to call her naive or laugh at her stupidity.

However, she had originally intended to take the woman in.

It was obvious that the woman was waiting for Jiang Wan here on purpose, and she also deliberately exposed her flaws to test whether she could find them.

Although Jiang Wan didn't know what this woman was up to, it was always better to be more vigilant. Only by keeping someone under your nose could you know what the other person was up to.

The money was all in the bag that Xiaoshan was carrying. She was eager to try. She had already taken the bag off and was about to open it.

The woman had her back to Jiang Wan, her shoulders shaking and she sobbed from time to time.

Jiang Wan took a step forward, grabbed the woman's shoulders and turned her around.

She held the woman's hand, wiped her tears with her other hand, and comforted her: "Don't cry anymore, I'll help you."

The woman burst into laughter and immediately knelt down to kowtow to Jiang Wan, saying, "Thank you very much, Miss. Thank you very much, Miss. Yue'er is willing to work like a cow or a horse to repay you."

"Your name is Yue'er?"

"Yes, my full name is Xie Shuyue, you can just call me Yue'er, Miss."

Jiang Wan held her hand and praised: "Xie Shuyue, what a good name."

This is really not a name that an ordinary hunter can come up with.

The smile on Jiang Wan's face deepened.

Xiao Shan took out twenty taels of silver and handed it to her, and Xie Shuyue accepted it with many thanks.

The bundle contained countless gold, silver and jewelry, but Xie Shuyue never even glanced at it the whole time, as if she was already accustomed to it.

Her eyes were always on Jiang Wan.

"Miss, I will come to look for you after I bury my father. Can you give me an address so that I can rush over to find you then?"

When Xie Shuyue was speaking, Jiang Wan was already walking back. Without even turning her head, she threw down a sentence,

"Princess's Mansion."

After saying that, she no longer paid attention to the reactions of the people behind her and walked into the dark alley.

Xie Shuyue looked at her back, then weighed the heavy purse in his hand, and for a moment he could not figure out the mind of this crazy princess.

It seems like she's suddenly not crazy anymore?

Xie Shuyue shook her head, clearing away the messy thoughts in her mind. She rolled up the paper on the ground and walked in the opposite direction.
