Chapter 304 Slavery
His voice is very strange, with a kind of husky and androgynous. Gu Danxue glanced at him, matched with the bright moonlight, looking at him like this made him look a bit cold like an exile. It's a pity that everything was ruined when I opened my mouth.
Gu Danxue asked him: "Have you got your body certificate?"
Xing Qi nodded, took out a crumpled contract from his arms and handed it over.
Gu Danxue shook her head: "I said before, I redeemed you, not because you are my maid."
Xing Qi pointed at his own face, and sighed sadly: "The slave's parents are so beautiful, if you don't follow the girl and live alone, how can you live outside? The girl has saved the slave's family from suffering, great kindness and virtue are useless." If you want to repay, you can only agree with your body!"
The corner of Gu Danxue's mouth twitched. This demeanor and words are matched with the face of the person opposite. If she was a man, Bao Buqi could really be seduced by beauty for a while, and take her back to be a bed warming maid or something.
But she is a woman, what's the matter with the two women like this?
She looked into the other person's eyes, and said solemnly: "I have a friend who loves reading scripts, and once analyzed that, usually, when a girl in distress is rescued by a man, there are only two situations,
If the man looks good, the girl will say that the little girl has nothing to repay, and she is only willing to promise her with her body.
If the man looks average, the girl will say that the little girl will be an ox or a horse in the next life, with a grass ring. The girl still wants to make a promise with her body! "
Don't do what he thinks, this friend is naturally referring to Shen Mingjiao.
Facing her clear eyes, Xing Qi was stunned for a rare moment, not because of anything else, but after getting in touch with her these days, Gu Danxue is obviously a stubborn and inarticulate little girl, but I didn't expect that She could say something like that.
But in Gu Danxue's eyes, he thought he was blocked by himself. For a while, there was a bit of pride in the anti-general.
There was a smile on his face unconsciously, which eased the nervousness and hesitation about facing his father when he was about to return to the Hou Mansion.
In short, under Xing Qi's various verbal routines, Gu Danxue still accepted the contract he handed over.
Gu Danxue opened it casually and glanced at it, mainly because she wanted to know the other party's name?
It's a pity that this contract is probably too old, and it seems to have been wet by water, so many characters can't be read clearly, and only a "seven" can be discerned in the name. And how could it be a slave.
Even if she doesn't understand common people, she still knows that Huaniang, Wuji, etc. belong to the humble family.
Although both belong to the lowest class in society, it is obvious that slaves have a lower status. As long as they have a contract of sale, the master can kill them at any time.
Based on his personality, Gu Danxue accepted the contract casually without asking any further questions. The main reason is that she didn't intend to keep the other party at all. Only when the other party left the brothel suddenly, he felt hesitant for a moment.
Walking out of the alley, Gu Danxue was thinking about how to go back. Xing Qi pointed to a car dealership opposite,
"Where is the girl going?" After speaking, he took out a piece of broken silver from his waist.
Gu Danxue asked in surprise: "Where did you get the money?"
Xing Qi said casually: "I saved it when I was in the building before."
While talking, he waved to a guy at the door of the car and horse dealership.
The two rented a carriage to go to Ningyuan Hou's Mansion, and those who followed secretly had to find their own horses to follow.
Arriving at Ningyuan Hou Mansion, Gu Danxue looked up at the tall red lacquered wooden door of the Hou Mansion, and some bad memories flooded in like a tide. She clenched her fists, she knew she couldn't and shouldn't escape.
Xing Qi didn't ask anything, but stepped forward to help and knocked on the door. Soon the porter will come.
Because Gu Danxue made a disguise, the concierge couldn't recognize the person, and was about to yell at him when two guards secretly followed Gu Danxue appeared.
When the concierge saw it, he immediately lowered his eyes respectfully.
Gu Danxue asked quietly: "Is father in the mansion?"
"Master Hou...Master Hou is at Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city."
The two guards looked at each other, didn't Master Hou secretly send a message to let the girl come back? Why did someone leave again?
They didn't know that after Gu Zhao went to see his daughter secretly yesterday, seeing her earning money so hard, they really felt distressed, so they couldn't help sending a letter to Gu Danxue saying that he was leaving, hoping that she would come back.
It can be seen that Gu Danxue has not returned for a long time, thinking that her daughter might not want to go back to the Hou's Mansion, so she hesitated to go to the other villa in the suburbs of Beijing, and even specially instructed the concierge.
The carriage traveled through the city all the way, when passing by the west of the city, Gu Danxue heard a sugar seller shouting from a distance, her ears moved,
But because of her personality, even if she wants something, she subconsciously doesn't want to trouble others, even if it's just a driver. This may be the so-called crying child has candy, but the non-crying child will always keep his thoughts in his heart.
Just as the carriage passed by the Tang man, Xing Qi Yang, who was sitting beside him, stopped the carriage with a voice, and then he lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage.
Come back soon, with seven or eight strings of sugar figurines in hand. He picked up a butterfly-shaped sugar figure and waved it in front of Gu Danxue:
"How is it? Isn't my little maid very caring!"
Seeing Gu Danxue staring at him in a daze, he directly stuffed the sugar figurine into the opponent's hand: "Okay, let's eat!"
Gu Danxue put it on his lips and took a bite. In fact, this kind of cheap snack uses the most inferior sugar, which is really incomparable to the exquisite pastries that Gu Danxue eats on a daily basis.
But she was serious about eating bite by bite. He turned his head and said softly "thank you" to Xing Qi.
Xing Qi raised his eyebrows to look at her: "Tsk! This is so touching!
Fortunately, I'm not a man, otherwise just a candy candy can coax the girl, you are moved and love me deeply and never regret it? "
After finishing speaking, he sighed again: "Hey, you little girls are so cute! When you are sad and lonely, just send some cheap gadgets, and say a few love words for free, and you can cheat a girl's heart!"
Gu Danxue was really moved at first, but after what he said, she was no longer moved, only shame and annoyance remained in her heart, she couldn't help but looked up and stared at him fiercely, and rarely said a harsh word: "Shut up."
Xing Qi saw that she was putting on a straight face and tried to look fierce, but Nai He couldn't help but peek at her reaction with her eyes. He couldn't help but bend his phoenix eyes happily,
This smile made his originally cold brows even brighter.
Gu Danxue was stunned for a moment, but it was strange to say that when she first met, she felt that the other person's facial features were somewhat familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere.
But today, he tidied up a new one, obviously he is still the same person, but he no longer gave her that feeling.
Is this just her illusion?
Seeing him distracted, Xing Qi raised his hand and waved in front of her eyes: "Why are you so dazed again!" Then he stuffed the rest of the sugar figurines into her hands.
Gu Danxue came back to his senses, looked at a handful of sugar figurines in his hand, and said honestly, "I can't finish it."
Xing Qi laughed: "Then take it home and eat slowly."
Gu Danxue thought of Huahua swallowing her saliva and saying that she wanted to eat sugar man, so she couldn't help but opened the curtain of the car and looked outside. But she only knew that this was the west of the city, not the exact location.
Xing Qi seemed to see what she was thinking, "Turn left at the fork in front of the road is Anqingfang, the city gate has a curfew at Haishi, and it's just Youshi, if you want to see that little girl, you can just go."
…
The carriage stopped at the place where Mrs. Hu used to set up a stall, but no one was seen.
Gu Danxue frowned suspiciously. This street is different from other places. It is the time when there are many people at night. It stands to reason that it is impossible for Mrs. Hu not to come out to set up a stall after she left.
The two got out of the carriage, Xing Qi gave silver and sent the coachman to wait, and then accompanied Gu Danxue to Aunt Hu's house.
When I came to the front, the yard was pitch black, and Gu Danxue was even more puzzled: "Why is there no one at home?"
Xing Qi could smell the smell of blood keenly. He frowned and strode forward.
When they walked in, with the lantern in their hands, the two of them saw clearly that the courtyard was turned into a mess, and there was a puddle of blood at the courtyard gate, which meandered all the way to the courtyard gate, and there, the a kitchen knife.
Even if you have never seen the world like Gu Danxue, can you imagine what happened here before?
She panicked for a moment: "What should I do? Something must have happened to Huahua and the others!"
Xing Qi carefully observed the various places in the Lower Court, and probably guessed what was going on in his heart, he said: "Don't panic, find someone to ask about the situation first."
As soon as the two of them left the yard, they ran into the old lady selling rice cakes next to Aunt Hu's stall.
The old lady was taken aback when she saw Gu Danxue, "Sister, didn't you leave?" Then she realized something, slapped her forehead and said:
"Hey sister, you came back just in time, you hurry up and save Mrs. Hu's mother and daughter, both of them were sold by Hu Yong, who killed thousands of dollars!"
