Chapter 244

"Xiao Mi, why don't you start the coffin business?" Yan Ce asked curiously, Xiao Mi's face changed slightly, and he frowned and said angrily: "I'm so angry, I helped Ma Wanhao accept so many The corpse he killed, I feel like I am his accomplice, earning black-hearted money by collecting the corpse! I just want to do good deeds, I admire people who do good deeds the most, but how did it become like this?!"

What Xiao Mi said and did made Yan Ce very pleased. He first walked up to Liu Lang, took back the bag of money he was holding, and then said to Xiao Mi: "Xiao Mi, I will accept the money. It's gone!"

Xiao Mi was about to laugh happily, but Yan Ce held his hand. Yan Ce returned the money to Xiao Mi with his own hands, and then said to him: "It's nothing, you have to take it to the county government office for me." Give it to Master Chang, just say that I want to return it to him!"

Xiao Mi smiled and pointed at Yan Ce and said, "Hey hey, you want to run away because you still owe Mr. Chang?"

Yan Ce was surprised by Xiao Mi's logic, but he still smiled back indifferently: "Yes, yes! But, you have to wait for me for a while, I need to write a letter to tell him, you can help me by the way Take it back, okay?"

"A letter? Good!" Xiao Mi happily nodded and agreed, and Yan Ce quickly wrote a letter as he said and handed it to Xiao Mi, and then the group of four started again. took a trip.

On the way, Liu Lang asked Yan Ce, "Boss, why did you push the ten taels of silver to Chang Teng? Also, what did you write in that letter?"

"Me! I suggest that Chang Teng reopen the Jishi Hall and hire Xiao Mi as the manager! Continue to promote the charity hall and help the poor!" Yan Ce explained with a smile, waving his folding fan.

Li Yang also nodded in agreement and said, "Master, this is really great. I have been thinking about Ji Shi Tang all the way, and I believe that Xiao Mi will become the most upright, most enthusiastic, and saves the most people." The head of the Shantang!"

"Yeah! I feel the same way!" Liu Lang nodded confidently, and Yan Ce, as the facilitator of the incident, smiled and said: "Well, I believe that with such an upright person guarding, this Jishitang will definitely become a veritable Dashantang !"

"If Nian Zhen is still alive now, I believe she will be very happy! Seeing that their family's shantang has changed so much, it can be reborn from the ashes and make things right!" Xue Mi interjected at this time, recalling.

Liu Lang kept nodding his head there as if he had no opinion of his own, and the four of them chatted along the way, stopping and going.

At the same time, in another mountain forest outside the county seat, a team of welcoming brides was walking on the path between the mountains to send the bride to the man's house to worship and get married.

Along the way, the procession was beating and beating, drums and gongs were blaring, the matchmaker and maids were all out of breath, but they insisted on walking.

But at this moment, one of the maids following her off suddenly pretended to have sprained her ankle on purpose, squatting on the ground and moaning in pain, another maid ran to her side concerned and asked, "Qiugui, Qiugui, are you alright?"

When the matchmaker heard the voice behind her, she immediately turned her head and saw two servant girls squatting on the ground, shouting anxiously, "Hey, what's the matter? What's the matter?"

After the matchmaker came to the maidservant, the maid named Qiugui said in pain, "I sprained my ankle!"

Seeing this, the matchmaker yelled at the marching team: "Hey, stop, stop, take a break, take a break!"

The team that had been beating gongs and drums was also happy to stop and rest for a while when they heard the matchmaker's voice, then put down the sedan chair and began to rest.

The bride who had been sitting in the sedan chair also lifted the curtain at this time and asked outside, "Qiuyue, what's wrong?"

"Miss, Qiugui's ankle is sprained, I'm afraid I can't walk! But, it's getting dark again, so what should I do?" the maid named Qiuyue told her lady with a mournful face.

"Miss, don't worry about me, you should go on your way first! Maybe you can go down the mountain before dark, enter Baiyang County, and marry my uncle! Otherwise, it will be dark and you will still be trapped in the mountains. It's done!" The maid named Qiu Gui limped to the side of the sedan chair and said.

But Qiuyue disagreed and said: "How can it be done? We are leaving, what should you do?"

"Don't worry about me, I'll find a place to rest first, and then I'll go to Liu's house to meet you!" Qiugui said deliberately pretending to bear the pain.

The matchmaker immediately nodded and agreed, "Hey, okay, let's do it like this..."

"No, no!" The bride came out of the sedan chair, Qiuyue respectfully went to support her own lady, and the bride continued: "You two are my maidservants brought from home. Are you lost halfway?"

"Since you said you can't leave people behind, what should you do if you talk about this barren mountain?" The matchmaker replied helplessly.

The bride thought for a while and then replied naively: "Why don't I come down and walk, let Qiugui sit in the sedan chair and be carried down the mountain by the bearer?"

"No, no? How can this bridal sedan chair be replaced? No, no!" the servant girl Qiu Gui immediately refused, and no one saw the slyness in her eyes.

"That's right, isn't this breaking the rules? It's unlucky!" The matchmaker also replied in agreement, but the bride smiled indifferently: "Human life is at stake, how can there be so many rules! I wait for Qiuyue, Qiugui has always been like her own sister, how can there be so many rules in this barren mountain! If I say lift her, I will lift her!"

"Miss, I can't! This... Qiugui is still a girl of Huanghua. If I want to get on this sedan chair, won't this be my life? No!" The maid Qiugui still persuaded her own lady.

The bride sighed and persuaded: "I said, why are you so stubborn! Wu Matchmaker, if Qiugui refuses to go down the mountain today, then we should not hurry! Find a place to rest in the mountains, and go to the city tomorrow morning!"

"Ah? Miss, this can't be done!" The matchmaker waved her hand in surprise and refused, "Look at this barren mountain, where is there any place to rest, how can you spend the night?"

Qiu Gui didn't know what to do for a while, and when she was thinking about the countermeasures, she looked up and saw someone coming from the road ahead, pointing in front of her in surprise, and said, "Hey! Who do you see coming? It's Zhang Ye, the housekeeper of my uncle's house. Far!"

"Hey! That's great! That's great! The Liu family has finally sent someone to pick up the sedan chair!" The matchmaker also shouted joyfully.

After the housekeeper Zhang Yuan came to the bride, Zhang Yuan said respectfully to the bride: "Young Mistress! Zhang Yuan is here to welcome the sedan chair at Madam's order!"

The bride smiled and said: "Well, then there will be housekeeper Zhang!", and the matchmaker at the side helped out and said: "Oh, that's great, look, it's going to be dark today, there are too many Director Zhang leads the way, and the road is much more secure!"
