Chapter 114 (1/2)

In recent days, the scenery of Yucheng has changed rapidly.

First, the Qi family was taken into custody, and then the Wen family was burned to death. The rapid changes in the situation make people pale. People are in danger. It seems that it will be their turn next second.

These days, the voices of vegetable sellers in Yucheng market are much lower.

Walking in the most chaotic streets of Yucheng, vendors on both sides whispered about what had happened these days.

Because Qian Yu blocked the news of the Wen family, people only knew that the owner of the Wen family was burned to death, but they didn't know the reason. Some people speculated that it was probably the previous actions of the Wen family that offended the blood lotus sect, resulting in the retaliation of the blood lotus sect.

This remark came from the mouth of rich businessmen. After all, there was the example of the Qiao family in Feicheng. It seemed that everything was naturally put on the head of the blood lotus sect.

”You say, when will you ask to kill the Third Master of Qi?” A vendor gnashed his teeth and said, ”even if this Qi San is rich and unkind, he is going to die and has to pull the above member as a cushion. Why didn't such a person be accepted by God earlier.”

Another person sighed fiercely: ”heaven has no eyes. Such a good man outside the clerk died like this, but Qi San is still alive. God is really unfair.”

”I heard that someone is going to overturn the case for Third Master Qi.”

”Who? Such an immoral person has nothing to overturn. Let him die early!”

”Yes, it's better to die. If you don't have any virtue, you will run rampant in the countryside.”

”...” the people talked a lot.

Yi Xiaoqiao held a white lotus root and listened to their comments. His eyebrows frowned tightly.

”Young master, it seems that the Third Master Qi has committed public anger.” The peach whispered.

Yi Xiaoqiao nodded and didn't say much. He handed the lotus root to the little brother who bought vegetables to weigh and pay. He was calm as if he didn't hear anything.

Peach followed Yi Xiaoqiao with her basket. When she saw that she bought some here and there, her basket was soon full.

They walked back with baskets. As soon as they got near the door, they saw a man talking to Tian Xiang at the door. It was a woman in coarse clothes. She held two children in her hand and kept praying for Tian Xiang.

”I beg you, girl. Just let me meet childe Qiao. I really have something important to discuss with her. I beg you.”

”Sorry, the young master has really gone out and hasn't come back yet.” Tian Xiang looked sorry.

”What's up?” Yi Xiaoqiao came forward and she looked at the woman.

The lady was dressed in ordinary coarse cloth clothes, and her black hair was held by a Jing hairpin. She didn't apply powder and Dai, and she didn't sweep her eyebrows, but she had a natural calm temperament, but her tight frown showed a little anxiety.

Yi Xiaoqiao looked at her vaguely familiar. Looking at the two children she was holding, he had a general guess in his heart and frowned.

Indeed, Tian Xiang replied, ”young master, this is the first wife of Third Master Qi. I'm looking for you.”

”Mr. Qiao, you want to save my master...” Mrs. Qi said and was about to kneel down.

Yi Xiaoqiao hurriedly helped her: ”madam, you don't have to do this big gift. Please say something at home.”

Peach grabbed Yi Xiaoqiao and shook his head. The Third Master Qi's affairs have not been decided by the yamen, and they can't take care of them.

Yi Xiaoqiao gave her a reassuring look and made an inviting gesture: ”come with me.”

Mrs. Qi looked around and dragged her two children into the door with Yi Xiaoqiao.

Yi Xiaoqiao and Mrs. Qi did it on the stone bench under the tree.

Tian Xiang served tea. Yi Xiaoqiao took out many small snacks he had just bought and gave them to the two children. The two children looked young, but they were very clever and sensible. When they got snacks, they ran to one side and sat down to eat without disturbing them.

Yi Xiaoqiao took a sip of tea and said, ”what's the matter with Mrs. Qi looking for me?”

Mrs. Qi slowly raised her eyes and looked at her. Suddenly, she knelt down and crawled on the ground: ”please help my master, childe Qiao.”

When she said this, the two children also ran over and knelt at Yi Xiaoqiao's feet: ”please help your father, childe Qiao.”
