He let go of his heart and smiled, "I know it won't work either."

Dongqing said in surprise: "Young master doesn't know Miss Yan'er's likes and dislikes, how could he know that it won't be done?"

Lu Qi was stunned and said to his mother's reasons to prevent his wife from marrying him. He said to Dongqing a little hesitated and said casually: "I have been engaged since childhood, but I have lost contact with my daughter's family due to war. Although I have lost contact, I cannot ruin my marriage. Therefore, I can only ask for a fair wife. Miss Yan'er's conditions are so good, so of course I cannot be a fair wife.

Dongqing said with a light word and believed it. Lu Qi felt ashamed to deceive the little girl and said in a distorted manner: "Holly, who are there in your family?"

Dongqing said softly: "I have grandfather and parents at home, an eight-year-old brother, and an older sister who is one year older than me. Now Mr. Wang is a slave, and there is also a 21-year-old brother who is 21 years old this year. He was recruited into the army five years ago and has not come back yet. I heard that it is 80% that I can't come back, and my mother always cries secretly." After the girl said that, she burst into tears.

Lu Qi was shocked when he heard this. He joined the army five years ago, wasn’t it the same as himself? The situation of the Dongqing family is very similar to that of his own. Think about the bloody battles of three or four years, and the number of people who died around him, and how many people could return to their hometowns.

"What's your brother's name?" Lu Qi asked heavy.

"My brother's name is Zhou Zhengren, and his nickname is Maoer." Dongqing said with a little hope. Lu Qi shook his head when he heard this. This name was strange.

"Holly, is your sister OK at Mr. Wang's house?" The same situation resonated with Lu Qi, and he was concerned.

Dongqing shook her head and said sadly: "My sister is very bad at Mr. Wang's house. I heard that she is often beaten. Mr. Wang is very mean and is a famous black-hearted businessman in Wangxiang Fort. My sister was originally sold to the Zhao family. Later, the Zhao family owed Mr. Wang's money in business and used my sister to pay some debts. My family knew that Mr. Wang was vicious, but he didn't have the money to redeem his sister from the Zhao family in advance. He saw that his sister was in the fire pit."

Lu Qi glanced at Dongqing and said in a harmonious voice: "Since your sister suffers from the Wang family, I will buy your sister back when I go to the Wang family tomorrow morning."

"Really? What you said is true, young master." Dong Qing suddenly looked at Lu Qi in shock and eagerly verified.

"Of course it's true. How much money did the Wang family buy your sister?" Lu Qi said with a smile.

"It's thirty taels, and you can buy it according to the rules for sixty taels." Holly said in a eager and careful tone.

"Oh, I can afford it. I'll go tomorrow morning, don't worry." Lu Qi said in a harmonious voice.

Dongqing's little face turned red with excitement, and was at a loss in her joy. She lowered her body and knelt down again. Lu Qi stretched out her hand and grabbed her left arm, and said in a deep voice: "Have you forgotten what I said?"

Dongqing was startled and panicked, but soon said in a low voice: "I haven't forgotten, I squatted down when I want to beat the young master's legs."

Lu Qi laughed and let go of Holly. The little girl was really clever. He pulled her waist down and looked at the door. At this time, at most, the first update had just passed. If she went to bed earlier, Ning'er would feel a little empty in his heart.

"Holly, are you going outside at this time?" Lu Qi asked in a harmonious voice.

"Young Master, there is a curfew only at the third update of Wangjiang Castle. Now there is a night market outside, which is very lively." Holly said in a soft voice.

"Is that so? Are you willing to accompany me out for a walk? I want to see Wangjiang Castle." Lu Qi said in harmony.

Dongqing hesitated after hearing this and said softly: "Young master, the lady is not at home, so I dare not make decisions."

"Did I let you decide? Let's go." Lu Qi said as he laughed, and stood up and walked out. Dongqing was stunned and hurriedly followed him out.

It was hot in July in the south of the Yangtze River, and it was cooler at night. Lu Qi held a knife in his left hand, and holly was accompanying him on the right side. The shops on the Cross Street of Wangjiangbao opened a night market, but there were not many people on the street, which was much worse than the crowds in the county.

Holly may rarely go out, and she looked around with her little face excitedly, just like Lu Qi, who was a local, took her around. Lu Qi was in a good mood and bought some snacks for Holly along the way. The female worker who looked at Holly for a few more times bought some embroidery thread and rouge for her. The touching Holly tears rolled in her eyes, and she forced herself to stop flowing out.

Lu Qi did not go in vain. He bought a purple bamboo flute in an old store for five cents of silver. The purple bamboo flute was as beautiful as jade, with some delicate water patterns. He bought it and held it in his hand very cool. He put it on his waist when he liked it.

Before he knew it, Holly stopped in front of a shop, which was a shop selling rice and harvesting rice. Two lanterns were hung on the door of the shop, and there were four big characters on the plaque, and Holly looked at the shop in hopes.

"Is your sister here?" Lu Qi asked in a harmonious voice.

Holly nodded in dismay and said softly: "Yes, my sister is in the inner house behind the shop."

Lu Qi nodded and walked towards the rice shop, and Dongqing followed behind with a timid expression.

After entering the rice shop, a thin man in a cloth jacket immediately came to meet him and said politely: "Master, do you buy rice or sell rice?"

Lu Qi ignored him and turned his head to scan the rice shop. He saw that the rice shop was about 30 square meters, with a back door opposite the front door, and a long cabinet was separated from the middle of the house. Two oil lamps were placed on the cabinet, illuminating the rice shop. There were two warehouses behind the cabinet containing half a foot rice. There were not much rice, and there was no one else except for the thin man.

"Are you Mr. Wang, the owner of the rice shop?" Lu Qi asked coldly.

The thin man was stunned and said politely: "Isn't it young? My master is in the back house. Are you worried about finding my master?"

"If you have something to do, I am a yaguard from the county. If you have a case, you should ask Mr. Wang. Take me to the back house immediately to see Mr. Wang." Lu Qi said coldly, and with a choke, the long knife was unsheathed three inches. The cold front shone in the lights.

The thin man shivered in fear, and his thick/black face turned yellow. More than 90% of Guan Fei's family have to be separated. Looking at Lu Qi's cold face and the cold knife, he closed his mouth and nodded in horror, and pointed his hand at the inner sect and nodded again.

"Lead the way." Lu Qi Leng shouted, and the thin man shivered again, and hurriedly turned around and ran towards the back door. Lu Qi followed closely, and Dongqing's face was shocked and timid, and hesitated for a moment and trotted to follow.

After passing the back door, there is a spacious courtyard. After passing the courtyard, there is a courtyard covering an area of ​​100 square meters. There are a row of ten main houses, which are completely ordinary houses. There are two wind rods in the courtyard and two strings of angrily wind lanterns hanging on it, which makes the courtyard half-dilm and half-dark.

When he stepped into the courtyard, Lu Qi saw a cruel scene. Under a wind rod in the courtyard, there was a naked girl. The girl was about fourteen or fifteen years old. Her skin was yellow and thin, and she was covered with dozens of new and old blood wounds. An iron chain was locked on her left foot and neck to the wind rod post. A large wooden basin was placed in front of the girl, and there was a lot of clothes in the basin. She was kneeling on the lamp to wash clothes.

There is another scene that makes people hate. There is a bamboo chair five or six meters away from the girl. On the bamboo chair is leisurely lying a middle-aged man in forty. The middle-aged man has a square face and looks like a human figure. His eyes are narrowed at the naked girl who is washing clothes, as if he is enjoying an interesting toy.

"Master, there is an official coming to see you." The thin man entered the yard and shouted in panic.

The middle-aged man on the bamboo chair was startled, and the girl in the laundry was also looking up, her eyes were dull and confused. Lu Qi was not very angry because of the scene in front of him. He saw many unfair things in this world. The weak were living so miserably. He turned his head to look at Dongqing. Seeing Dongqing looking at the girl in the laundry was so sad, his expression had already been determined.

Lu Qi turned around and stepped forward, Wei Ling said coldly: "Are you Mr. Wang?"

The middle-aged man looked at Lu Qi in amazement, and was snatched by Lu Qi's evil aura. He subconsciously nodded and said, "I am Wang Renshou, who are you?"

Lu Qileng said: "I am a county yamen guard. I am here to buy her. You have used her contract to sell her." He pointed at the girl in the clothes while speaking.

Wang Renshou was stunned, then turned his mind back, looked at Lu Qi with a thrust his waist, raised his eyebrows and said, "Where are you from? How dare you pretend to be an official and go to a private house at night."

Lu Qi's face turned cold and said coldly: "I'm here to buy slaves, will you sell them?"
