Chi Xu didn't want to fight with An Lexu anymore, he put his arms around the woman's waist and came to the counter with a breezy face, and said to Xie Kai, "The blue color is too deserted, why don't you choose this red agate, which can bring out the beauty of the lady."

Xie Kai glanced at the red jade hairpin and subconsciously shook his head.Red is too ostentatious, his wife is a gentle and lovely woman, so she needs to use lively and bright colors.

"It's a pity that Young Master Chi doesn't like brother Xie Kai." An Le also came to the counter with a smile, and looked at Xie Kai with regret.

Xie Kai suddenly felt uncomfortable, goosebumps all over his body, carefully took a step back towards Qi Lian and said bluffingly, "I didn't bring enough money today, I'll buy it another day."

Qi Lian was the closest to Xie Kai, saw the dodge and fear in Xie Kai's eyes, and also helped to speak, "We have been out for a while, it's time to go back."

Now that Qi Lian opened his mouth, An Le stopped teasing Xie Kai, and said to Qi Lian, "Ma'am, be careful all the way."

Although he was smiling, Qi Lian still felt a chill in his heart, and he walked out eagerly.Xie Kai followed closely behind, afraid of being stopped by An Le if he ran too slowly.

An Xiaoxiao's mission on this trip is to protect Qi Lian, and if Qi Lian is leaving, she will naturally not stay any longer, and said to An Le with a smile, "Brother, I'm leaving."

"Okay, be careful on the road." The corners of An Le's mouth curved even wider, and a smile appeared in his eyes, and his tone of voice was much softer, the kind that really made people feel refreshed.

Qi Lian got into the carriage and carefully observed Chi Xu through the window. He saw that Chi Xu was choosing jewelry to please the woman with a smile on his face. There was nothing unusual about him, and Chi Xu who was in the store just now didn't deliberately look at him.Thinking of that letter, Qi Lian's heart sank, he really couldn't understand Chi Xu's behavior now.

"Finally I can go." Xie Kai got into the carriage, heaved a sigh of relief, raised his head and laughed like the rest of his life after a catastrophe.This time he brought out all his daughter-in-laws, but he didn't expect to buy presents, but met An Le instead.

An Le usually stays in the punishment hall, and rarely shows up. As long as she doesn't deliberately look for it, she can't see her once a year. Today is really unlucky to meet An Le and come out to drink.

"Coward." An Xiaoxiao laughed mercilessly when she heard Xie Kai's words.

Xie Kai didn't refute it, he liked Huang Mo and asked with a smile, "Are you afraid of Hall Master An?"

Huang Mo didn't answer and concentrated on driving.At this time, there are still many pedestrians on the road, and the vehicles can only move forward slowly.Huang Mo kept paying attention to the road conditions, but unexpectedly a woman rushed out and stopped in front of the carriage, crying, 'help'.

Huang Mo hastily tightened the rope and parked the car aside, secretly holding down the hilt of his sword and giving Xie Kai a wink.Xie Kai got off the car consciously, stood a foot away from the woman and asked, "What's wrong with you, girl?"

"There are a group of villains who want to sell me to Hualou, please help me, I don't want to go to that place where people cannibalize..." The woman cried anxiously as if seeing a straw.Before she finished speaking, a group of vicious men chased after her.

"Qi Yu, let's see where you are going."

When the woman heard the sound, she panicked and wanted to hide in the carriage.Huang Mo saw her intentions, quickly jumped out of the car and pushed her away.

Although his palm did not use internal strength, it was not weak. Qi Yu was directly pushed to the ground. He didn't know whether it was hurt or frightened, so he sat on the ground and cried loudly, "Help me..."

Seeing that she was not very old, Xie Kai immediately stood in front of Qi Yu when he saw that those vicious men were going to arrest her, "Forcing her into prostitution, you guys are quite courageous."

"It's only natural to pay off the debt. She can't pay back the money, so she can only sell it to a brothel to pay off the debt." The leader of the man said viciously, pretending to arrest Qi Yu.

Xie Kai was at a loss for words when he heard the words, he still stopped in front of Qi Yu and asked towards the carriage, "Ma'am, what should I do?"

"How much does she owe, we will pay it back for her." Qi Lian spoke to Xie Kai through the window.From the very beginning, he heard that the person outside was Qi Yu, and he thought it would be good if Xie Kai could save her, but he didn't expect that she was not an innocent person, Xie Kai couldn't fight the injustice.If he doesn't speak again, Qi Yu may really be sold to Hualou.

Although he still doesn't know what Hualou is, but seeing Qi Yu's frightened appearance, it is definitely not a good place to go.

Qi Yu heard Qi Lian's voice, but didn't see Qi Lian's face, and shouted directly, "Sister, I'm Yu'er, please help me...Sister..."

"Ma'am, is she really your sister?" Xie Kai's eyes widened in surprise, and he ran to talk to Qi Lian under the window.

With the matter at this point, Qi Lian could no longer hide it, so he opened the car window and said, "Let her get in the car first."

Qi Yu hurriedly climbed into the car, and subconsciously stopped when passing by Huang Mo.After waiting for a while, seeing that Huang Mo didn't stop him, he gave Huang Mo a confident look.

As soon as he entered the carriage, Qi Yu immediately threw himself in front of Qi Lian, holding Qi Lian's hand in surprise and joy, "Sister, help me..."

"Ma'am, is she really your sister?" Seeing this scene, An Xiaoxiao couldn't help asking.None of them had heard that Madam had any other relatives, so it was strange that a younger sister suddenly appeared.

"She is indeed my younger sister." Qi Lian nodded in response, seeing Qi Yu's messy appearance, he felt mixed emotions in his heart.Qi Yu didn't recognize him last time, but this time she knew it was him only when she heard the voice, and even called him 'sister' avoiding people's ears.

"Sister..." With Qi Lian's acknowledgment, Qi Yu threw himself into Qi Lian's arms, crying even louder.

Qi Lian neither hid nor hugged Qi Yu back to comfort Qi Yu, just lowered his head quietly, the expression in his eyes was hard to see clearly.

Hearing Qi Lian's voice, Huang Mo asked in the car, "Madam, how much does Miss owe you?"

"It's only 300 taels of silver." Qi Yu replied loudly, changing his weak and pitiful appearance before, looking at the group of men with a bit of arrogance.

"300 taels? You really know how to do the math, plus interest, the total is 1000 taels." The leader retorted fiercely.

Hearing this, Huang Mo took out 100 taels from his pocket and threw it over. Seeing that those people were about to make a move, he said coldly, "Go to Qingping Village to get the extra money."

When several people heard about Qingping Village, they didn't dare to say anything, and left in a hurry with the money.

Those who were dealt with, Qi Lian pushed Qi Yu's hand away without a trace, "Where do you live now, how are your father and stepmother?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Yu burst into tears of grief, "Mother was sick and didn't see a doctor, dad... dad, he..."

"What's wrong with Dad..." Qi Lian asked anxiously seeing Qi Yu's intermittent crying.Although his father treated him badly and hated him very much, it was his father after all, and he couldn't let go of the family affection that was fused into his flesh and blood.

"Father...he's dead..." Qi Yu cried even louder after speaking.

"Dead, dead..." Qi Lian repeated in a murmur, his mind was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that tears were streaming down his face.The tears on his face were hot, but his heart was cold, his whole body couldn't help shaking, his teeth opened and closed several times, and only small crying sounds came out.

"My condolences, ma'am." Seeing that something was wrong with Qi Lian, An Xiaoxiao hurriedly supported Qi Lian.

"I'm fine...I'm fine..." Qi Lian repeated these words unconsciously, tears couldn't stop flowing, his throat was dry, and the pain was severe.

"Sister, we are the only ones who depend on each other..." Qi Yu threw herself into Qi Lian's arms again, crying sadly.

Compared with Lian's silent tears, her loud howling was a bit noisy and annoying to watch.

An Xiaoxiao was not interested in caring about her life, and looked at Qi Lian with concern, "Madam, cry if you want, don't hold back, it's not good for your health."

"I want to go see dad..." Qi Lian closed his eyes to hide his tears, and exhausted his strength to say this.

"I'll take you there." Qi Yu replied quickly after hearing the words, and his voice was instantly normal, without the slightest bit of crying.

Qi Lian was still in grief and didn't notice Qi Yu's change.
