" Boss, we..." The three people who had fled ran to the front of the man in black. They knelt down and lowered their heads, ignoring the pain.
" Alright, you can't be blamed for this." As he spoke, he raised his hand and immediately sealed the acupuncture points of the three of them." Quickly find a doctor to treat them. If you're late, you'll lose your lives."
It was obvious that the tendons in their hands had been bitten off. The flesh had been torn open, and there were teeth marks on the bones.
This time, Ling 'er really showed mercy and did not bite off their wrists.
I settled the unkempt woman in my room and brought her a basin of water for her to wash up. I went to the kitchen and brought a cup of tea.
After washing up, although she wasn't a great beauty, she could be considered pure and cute. Her thin face and small mouth made people look at her more and more attractive. However, there was a little confusion in her eyes. I liked her elegant clothes and the cold feeling she emitted.
She told me, Her father was a scholar. She had been reading and writing with her father since she was young. Two months ago, her father fell ill with a cold. She had used up all the savings in the family, but her father still passed away a month later. In order to send her father away, she sold herself to a rich family as a maid and signed a contract to sell herself. However, she did not expect that the madam of that family was extremely jealous. Just because the old master praised her for being small and exquisite, she was sold to a brothel by the madam. She refused to obey. She found an opportunity to escape, but…"She began to cry and looked very sad. I comforted her from the side.
After crying for a while, perhaps because she was tired, she fell asleep unknowingly. Tears were still hanging from the corners of her eyes. I watched her fall asleep on my bed. After covering her with the blanket, I closed the door and left the house.
When I arrived at Mu Heng's house, I saw the old couple drinking tea and chatting in the living room. I walked in with a worried expression.
" Hello Uncle Mu, Aunt Mu." I squeezed out a smile and saluted them.
" What's wrong, little girl? Do you know how to worry now? Looking at your performance at that time, you didn't look like a little girl." Uncle Mu shook his head at me with a smile, his face full of pity.
"Come, miss, sit here. Don't listen to the old man's nonsense. We're really worried about you. Before the old man could make a move, we saw them run away. Only then did we calm down. You really can't be underestimated!”Aunt Mu looked at me in surprise.
"At that time, I only felt sorry for that woman, so I asked Ling 'Er to scare them. Now that she's sleeping on my bed, I'm worried that those people will come again.”I said in a pleading tone.
"Don't worry, there's still our old man. "Although he's not as strong as he was when he was young, it's still easy for him to beat up one or two hooligans," his aunt comforted him.
" I'm worried that they'll take her away again. If I can't stop them…"
" Don't worry too much. They're in this business for money. They're all greedy for money. I think it'll be fine as long as they pay," Uncle said confidently.
I believe that the problem that 'money' can solve should be the simplest. I kept nodding.
The next day, it started to drizzle outside. I came back from Aunt Mu's house very early and stood in the courtyard to enjoy the refreshing feeling brought by the rain. It was really a…
A hurried knock on the door interrupted my thoughts.
I saw a red cloud floating in. I focused my eyes and saw that it was a graceful figure. When she walked, she looked like a boneless snake. Even I wanted to hug her soft waist when I saw her. She was really a fiery beauty.
Seeing my face full of surprise and envy, she said with satisfaction," Little girl, you have great courage. You even dare to snatch my people?”
"I think this girl has misunderstood. I only met Miss Lan Zhi for the first time and didn't have a deep friendship with her. It was your subordinates who shouted in front of my house and disturbed my dreams. They even spoke rudely. I was very angry and scared them away. As I spoke, I placed Ling 'er in front of me and used my nose to nudge her head.
Ling 'er understood and used her tongue to lick my nose, looking very pitiful.
When the red-robed woman saw this, she retreated a little. He didn't say anything and just laughed out loud,"Alright then, I'll take that Lan Zhi with me so that I won't disturb the two of you." She raised her voice at the last word.
"Wait!" I stopped the two men who were about to come forward. "Since you're here, let's talk about something that both of us are interested in.”I made a 'please' gesture.
" I'm late, little girl." Just from the voice, she knew it was Uncle Mu.
"Not late, just in time. I was just about to discuss a business deal with this beautiful sister.”I quickly went up to him.
When the red-clothed woman saw the smiling Uncle Mu, she actually bowed."How have you been, old senior?"
" Thank you, thank you. My body is still quite healthy." Uncle Mu stepped forward and bowed.
"I believe that Senior Mu already knows the purpose of my visit today. May I ask if I can take her away?”
Before I could speak, Lan Zhi, who had been hiding in the room, suddenly ran out of the room. She knelt on the ground and pulled my leg, begging,"Please save me, miss. I've come out, but I don't plan to go back alive. Save me until the end, and send Buddha to the west. Save me! "I'll kowtow to you." As he spoke, his head fell to the ground.
I quickly reached out to help her up." Last night, you slept very soundly. I didn't have the heart to wake you up. I've discussed it with Uncle Mu, and we'll let you stay here. I don't have any relatives here, so if you don't mind, you can call me 'little sister'!”I wiped his tears as I spoke.
She knelt on the ground again." Sister, thank you!”As he spoke, he kowtowed again.
This time, I was faster than her and held her head with my hand.
"What are you thanking me for? It's fate that we met. Why are you being so polite to your 'little sister'?”I smiled at her.
"What a good scene. I wonder how the two of you will give me an explanation?”Hongmei looked at me with her fiery eyes.
"Boss Hong, forgive me for saying too much. Since Miss Wang and Miss Lan Zhi hit it off, then do me a favor and let them have their way!”After saying that, he winked at me." Paying back your debts is a matter of course. Shouldn't you give Boss Hong an explanation?"”。
" Of course. Since it's my sister's debt, it's also mine. I hope Boss Hong can be magnanimous. No matter how much money I owe, I'll definitely return it double."
After hearing this, Hongmei, who had been glaring at him just now, now had a reddened expression on her face.
"Alright then, for the sake of Senior Mu, I won't mention the debt for now. How should I settle the matter of my servant being bitten?”Her gentle voice was mixed with dissatisfaction.
" That's easy. Girl, give some medical fees to Boss Hong. Don't let the little guy play around anymore." Uncle Mu nodded at me.
"Boss Hong, this is a small compensation for the two big brothers. Do you think it's enough?”I took out twenty taels of silver from my waist and handed it to Hongmei.
"Alright, I won't disturb you anymore. Senior Mu, you can be the witness here! I, Hongmei, am also a person of the underworld. Since Miss Wang has said so, then come to my 'Red Man-Lou' tomorrow. After I receive the money, I will naturally exchange the contract with you. Senior Mu, is that okay?”Hong Mei fixed her gaze on Uncle Mu.
" Boss Hong is such a straightforward person. We'll see you tomorrow. Please forgive us and take good care of Miss Wang. I'll thank you in advance, Boss Hong," Uncle Mu stepped forward and bowed to express his gratitude.
I imitated his actions and finally managed to fool him.
" Thank you, Uncle Mu. Thank you, little sister." She knelt in front of Uncle Mu this time.
"It's good that you're fine. I just moved my mouth and didn't do anything. If you want to thank someone, you should thank the girl."
"I've already said that you've already called me sister. Why are you still thanking me? If you continue to thank me, does it mean that you don't want to call me sister anymore?”I said to her with a smile.
" I admit it. Where else could I find such a good girl? I must have accumulated merit in my previous life to meet such a good person like you." Her eyes were filled with tears as she hugged me in her arms.
I hugged this long-lost warmth, just like how my mother felt when she hugged me.
I was once her life-saving straw, and now she is my second family.
"Alright, it's a good thing to acknowledge your family, but the two of you are crying here. It's too wrong. "Let's go to my house to celebrate. This old woman must be waiting anxiously at home." Uncle Mu took our hands and walked out.
