As Little White looked, old man Wang's expression instantly changed. His eyes flashed, and he stuttered. Little White thought to himself, ”That's not right!” ”Father must be hiding something from me!”
”Great godfather, is there something you're hiding from your daughter?” Little White followed Luo Lingwei's tone and asked.
”No ….” ”No!” At this moment, old man Wang's forehead was already covered in sweat.
”Then let's do it like this. Since it's not convenient for you to ask, I'll go ask the Liu Gan father and the others.” Lil 'White stood up and was about to leave.
When old man Wang saw that Whitey was really going to ask, he knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he quickly went up to stop it.
”Miss, don't! ”Dad will tell you the truth.” Old man Wang sighed and said.
”Hai, speaking of this, it's all my fault!”
It turned out that old man Wang lived next to a woman called Widow Zheng. She was in her forties and was born deaf and dumb. He was a kind and kind person. She had died a long time ago, leaving her daughter to grow up by herself. Her daughter was called Xiu Niang, 14 years old. Although she was young, she was still very slim and graceful.
Widow Zheng usually made some change by helping large families with their work, while her daughter, Xiu Niang, went out to the wild to get some flowers to sell. Although the mother and daughter pair were living a bitter life, they were still able to survive.
A few years ago, when Luo Lingwei and the others passed by the Ming Lin manor, they also left some money for old man Wang and the others. It was also during this year that Widow Zheng became ill. Originally, the mother and daughter pair did not have much money in their home. When Widow Zheng became ill, the whole house collapsed.
At this time, the embroidery lady was only fourteen years old and did not have any money at home. She could not afford to hire a doctor. Xiu Niang saw her mother lying on the sickbed and was extremely worried. The little girl sat alone in front of her house and cried all morning. Her voice was hoarse from crying.
It happened that Tianshulin was returning from a trip outside the city. As he passed by this street, he heard someone crying not far away. Curious, he turned his head to look. It didn't matter if she looked at it. She coincidentally saw little Embroidered Niang sitting by the door, crying her heart out.
Who was Shulin? After so many years of searching for flowers and willow trees, he was nowhere to be seen among the men. Every girl in the group had to find a target! Suddenly, when Shu-lin saw such a beautiful girl like her, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He was instantly stunned.
Shu Lin thought to himself, there was actually such a beautiful girl in the Ming Lin Manor, how come I didn't notice her?
He quickly took two steps forward and arrived in front of the embroidery lady. Holding onto the folding fan, he cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards the embroidery lady and said, ”Young lady, may I ask, what makes you so sad? You actually made the girl cry like this? ”
Seeing that there was someone present, the embroidery lady knew that she had lost her composure. He stood up and wiped his tears as he choked with sobs, ”Young master, I am crying here. I've caused you trouble, so I apologize.”
When he looked closer, he saw that the embroidery lady looked so charming. Coupled with her gentle and soft voice, Shu Lin felt as if he was bathed in a fresh spring breeze.
He quickly waved his hand and said, ”That is not what I meant. Miss, you don't know, but I have always loved to do things well. Just now, on my way back, I heard someone crying his heart out, wondering if anyone was in trouble, so I called him over. When he found out that the girl was sitting here crying, could he ask what had happened to her? I wonder if I can help? ”
Although she was a year older than him, she was still naive and ignorant of the affairs of the world. Seeing that the person in front of him was not that evil, he told Shu Lin about his mother's illness.
Hearing this, Shu Lin nodded his head thoughtfully. He then took out a silver ingot and gave it to the embroidery lady.
