Da Suining

Chapter 123 Dead Man
The crying sound was "嘤嘤嘤", sobbing sadly and restrained.

A girl of fifteen or sixteen, dressed in white, knelt on the ground and wept silently.

The girl is weak, with long hair hanging behind her back, without any jewelry, naturally, there is not a single plain hairpin, and her ears are bare.

She applied a little powder and daisy, like a hibiscus emerging from the water, with the dew of the dawn, and it was dyed by the rising sun, and the color was first seen.

Her eyes are slender and her lips are tightly closed. She only lowered her head when she was sobbing, and two lines of clear tears flowed from her eyes. The corners of her eyes and temples were thinly smeared with rouge. The pink rouge was like peach petals blooming in March. Pink pervades her eyes, making her look both enchanting and pure.

It is really rare that these two completely different temperaments are highlighted in her body at the same time.

Beside the girl, there was a man lying down, his face and age could not be seen clearly, only a pair of black boots embroidered with blue moiré patterns were exposed.Judging by the size of the boots, it should be a man.

The white cloth covered his body, and the girl felt more and more sad as she stroked the white cloth.

Flyover has a lot of fun and very little misery.

Gradually, people gathered around, and after a while, they gathered on the inner three floors and the outer three floors.

Maybe it's the girl's outstanding appearance, so she is very moving when she cries.

"Father, why is sister crying? Are you crying so sadly?" The little girl who was about to eat candied haws just now sat on her father's neck and asked.

Her father shook his head: "Then who can know. I don't know."

The peddler who sells candied haws is the best at knowing where there are children. No, he took another bunch of candied haws and shook them in front of the little girl's nose: "It's sour and sweet. It's appetizing."

The little girl's father was also very helpless: "Go, go, what's the matter if you change to another child and always follow us?"

"Watch the excitement, buy a bunch of candied haws to watch the excitement, it's delicious."

The little girl licked her lips.

Her eyes were all on the candied haws, but the little girl's father was staring intently at the girl in white.

The girl is really too thin. She is wearing a chest-length white skirt and a white embroidered silver flower wide-sleeved gauze dress. On the skirt, her collarbone stands out. The thin and high collarbone grows higher as she cries. At that time, the gauze embroidered with silver flowers was so thin that she could almost see the delicate flowers embroidered on her skirt. When she turned her head, she saw a very beautiful back, without a trace of fat, and without any flaws in the white one. Even the gauze brushing against her back made people feel that it would hurt her.

This is stunning.

Weeping so beautifully, I feel pity.

The hearts of the onlookers also twitched as she cried.

"Buy candied haws, it's sweet and..." Before the peddler could finish his sentence, a thick hand pulled out a candied haws and shook it in front of the little girl's nose, "Do you want to eat it?"

"think."

"I'll eat it for you."

The little girl was dumbfounded.

This person is worse than a peddler who sells candied haws.

This person is wearing an orange narrow-sleeved robe, with a white jade pendant around his waist, and a royal blue silk ribbon hanging down from the jade pendant.

His collar was loose, revealing an equally thick neck.

He opened his mouth wide, and ate up the bunch of candied haws in three or two strokes.

The little girl began to cry.

He laughed.

This laughter is really like an old raven crying at night.

It was Guo Cheng.

He seemed to like Tianqiao very much.

After Guo Cheng finished eating the candied haws, he licked the sticks of the candied haws while shaking his legs.

After licking, he began to chatter again, making the stick "squeak".

Never seen such a prince.

Licking a stick can also be full of voice and emotion, with ups and downs.

With this stick, he can drink a jug of wine at least.

Xiang Suining was standing behind him, seeing this, he deliberately moved to the left.

It's better not to meet him face to face.

There were more and more people around, Guo Kai couldn't see clearly what was going on inside, and looked around on tiptoes scratching his ears and cheeks.

The servant he brought grabbed the other man's collar and pushed them to the sides, creating a path for him.

Guo Kai happily walked in front of the girl.

His eyes were never willing to leave her.

Good looking, although not gorgeously dressed, but with a sense of beauty, delicate appearance, the pink eyes are really fascinating.

That hesitant look in his eyes, that weeping and aggrieved look.

Those white and tender hands were like boneless hands, and that hooked neck.That soft chest-length skirt.

Guo Kai didn't dare to look down any further.

What kind of natural beauty and national beauty is this, I can only see it today.

In the past ten years, it was a waste of time.

He stretched out his hand, wanting to hug the girl's waist very much, but he was afraid that if he hugged her, her waist would be broken, so he could only stand there with his hands open, squinting.

The boy said sharply: "Don't cry, our young master has something to ask you."

The girl cried herself and didn't stop.

Guo Kai kicked the servant: "Rude, what should I do if I scare the beauty? You rough people don't show mercy at all. Go away and wait."

The boy backed out in despair.

Guo Kai asked with a smile, "Why is the girl crying so sadly? Tell me, I'll make the decision for you."

"Master—" the girl kowtowed to the ground, her plump breasts almost fell to the ground, although she was thin, her features were outstanding.

As soon as the girl kowtowed, Guo Wei was so distressed that he didn't know what to do. Regardless of so many eyes watching him, he squatted down and held the girl's shoulders and squeezed them: "What's your name? Where do you live? What happened? thing?"

"My name is Ling'er. I am sixteen years old and I live in Changzhou. I have some family background. My parents love me and my brother protects me. I grew up carefree and never knew what to worry about. But since Changzhou was hit by a disaster, Ten rooms and nine empties, my parents are dead, my sister-in-law has also gone to the underworld. Only my elder brother is left with me to flee to this place, relying on the fact that I still have some savings in my hand, I am not very panic, but my elder brother has lost his parents Wife, feeling depressed, often drinking and getting drunk, and now he has spent all the money... I haven't eaten for two days."

"There is such a beastly brother, you tell me where he is, and I will vent your anger on you."

"He is here." Ling'er wept and pressed the white cloth beside him: "My brother was drunk and died after falling down. I am a foreign girl who has no one to rely on and no money. None of the money."

The more Linger said, the more sad she became.

Guo Kai's heart was about to break when he heard that.

"Second Miss, is Miss Ling'er a liar?" Mingzhu wondered.

In the prosperous Qingcheng, this kind of drama is staged several times a month.

What's more, this is a bustling overpass, and there are people from all walks of life. Even if they cheat and run away with all their burdens, who can catch up.

So when Ling'er said that he had no money to bury his elder brother, the onlookers became vigilant.

Perhaps, this is another low-level deception, but it is a beautiful girl who deceives people.

If he is ugly and deceptive, he may be really poor and desperate.

The beauty is deceiving, why bother, just find a son-in-law to take care of him, and the money will come in vain. Kneeling here and crying, isn't it a disappointment to the beauty?
Not motivated.

"Girl, will she cheat money?"

"Maybe she didn't want to cheat money."

"Why did the girl say that?" Mingzhu blinked in confusion.

The people by the overpass, whether they are performers, fortune tellers, or small merchants, are nothing more than just eating and drinking.

If it wasn't for money, who would kneel in the crowd and let others give advice.

But Xiang Suining always felt that something was wrong.

The first is the person covered by the white cloth. It stands to reason that he should be a dead person, but just now he clearly saw his left leg move, and his boot also moved.

Look at that order again, although there is no jewelry, silver flowers are embroidered on the white gauze outer shirt. Xiang Suining has been to Liuyunfang several times, and she has seen such exquisite embroidery embroidered by the embroiderer of Liuyunfang. Tong Siyue said that it takes at least four embroiderers three days to embroider on such a coat.

Looking at her fingers again, the nails are clean, like peeling onions, tender and slippery.How could it be a refugee?Xiang Suining still remembers a refugee like Rainbow, Linger travels long distances, lives in a foreign land, and brother loses all his money. How could she have such hands?

When she was talking to Guo Kai, her eyes were clearly sizing him up secretly.

Guo Cheng is rich and noble, and the jade pendant hanging from his waist is so big that it can almost cover his face, but he has a rough appearance and is blatantly lustful. When a girl sees him, she should run away in fright, even if she wants to Selling herself to bury her brother, but now that she meets her, it's too late for her to cry, so how can she look at him affectionately?
It was love at first sight.

This order is weird.

Just don't know where the weirdness is.

Ling'er cried and looked at Guo Cheng.

Guo Kai patted his chest and said: "Don't cry, isn't it just for some money? It's not a problem if money can solve it." Guo Kai paused at his waist and tore off his jade pendant. The jade pendant was warm and lustrous , big and round, with a giant python carved on the top, it looks like something in the palace.At least it is worth a hundred taels of silver.

Ling'er accepts the jade pendant and kowtows to Guo Cheng.

"Look, it's just for money." The onlookers sighed: "It's a pity that such a pretty girl would do such a thing."

The little girl sat on her father's neck and asked, "Father, why did the little brother give that big pancake to the little sister?"

"Stupid boy, that's not big cake, it's candied haws." The man said "bah" and said, "I was caught by the candied haws seller, kid, that's not big cake, that's jade pendant."

"What is a jade pendant?"

"It's just a decoration, just like the chopsticks stuck in your mother's hair. But the jade pendant is very precious and can be exchanged for a lot of silver. You can buy a lot of candied haws, steamed dumplings, and fried dough twist."

"Then... is the person lying on the ground asleep? Why are you covering your face with a white cloth?"

"Son, he's not asleep, he's dead."

"Father, what is dead?"

"If you're dead, you can't move."

"Daddy lied." The little girl gently pulled his daddy's ear: "Whoever said that he can't move after death, his feet still moved just now."

"Nonsense. Dead people don't move."

"I'm not talking nonsense."

"Children can't lie, they wet the bed at night."

"But Dad, I really didn't lie, his foot just moved."

"No more nonsense, dad won't take you to play." The man said, reaching out and gently patted the little girl's back.

The little girl felt very wronged, and her eyes turned red when she curled her lips.

A gust of wind blew, and the white cloth swayed.

The little girl squeezed her father's ears tightly in horror, causing his father's face to deform: "Dad, that dead man lying on the ground stared at me, he stared at me."

"You silly boy, you must have been frightened by watching people playing snakes on the overpass. You are talking nonsense now. How could the dead man's eyes move? How could he stare at people?"

Men do not trust the children on their shoulders anyway.

I feel that childish words are not enough to be believed.

Xiang Suining believed the little girl's words.

The person lying on the ground moved his feet, and she saw it.

Just now when the white cloth swung, the man stared, and she saw it too.

What she saw was the same as what the little girl saw.

Ling'er held the jade pendant in her hand, the jade pendant was bigger than her hand, and it was heavy.

Guo Kai stared at her: "Are you satisfied now? I gave you all the jade pendants. There are so many people in here, how about you go back with me, and I will ask the boy to carry your brother's body to Yizhuang for burial. .”

"Everything listens to your son."

"Excellent, excellent."

Pearl pouted.

She felt sorry for Xiang Suining.

This Guo Kai, who is not clear with Xiang Yan, clearly forgot Xiang Yan at the moment, and only had Ling'er in his eyes.

Looking at his eyes, I can't wait for Ling'er to be executed on the spot.

How could such a rough and lustful person be a good match?

The Emperor Piansheng fell in love with Xiang Suining, and he might issue the imperial decree one day when the Emperor is happy.

Thinking about it makes me worry.

How could Xiang Suining not understand Mingzhu's mind, she pressed Mingzhu's hand calmly: "Let's go back."

"But girl..."

"Isn't the girl afraid of him and Ling'er..."

"Why be afraid?"

Mingzhu didn't know how to answer.

"I never cared, so I don't care, let alone be afraid." Xiang Suining turned around and wanted to leave: "It's been a while since I've been out, grandma should be worried, let's go."

There are too many people, and the crowd is tight.

I still heard Ling'er saying to Guo Kai behind him: "I only have this elder brother left. Now that he is dead, I have no relatives. If the son wants to take me away, I will follow. It's just that my parents are here. Listen to my father." Damn, my parents are not here, so I should listen to my brother."

"Your brother is dead." Guo Kai felt that this made her brain twitch a little, her brother is lying dead, how can he listen to him?Can a dead person still express his opinion?
Ling'er said: "Master, take off the white cloth and take a look at my brother. It's as if we have met, so I can go with you."

It's a good idea.

Is there anything cheaper in the world than this?

I'm afraid not.

This is picking up a beautiful girl for nothing.

Guo Kai rolled up his sleeves and lifted the white cloth. The white cloth covered him with an incomparably handsome face. The face was oval-shaped, with moist lips, picturesque eyebrows, and normal expression. How could this look like a dead person?
When Guo Kai looked at him, he just opened his eyes to look at Guo Kai.

This pair of eyes almost made Guo Cheng jump up in fright.

Is this a dead person?
This complexion is more lively than his Guo Cheng, right?

Guo Kai already understood that he was deceived. This group of people cheated the prince. It is really an unforgivable crime, but who can make the parents look good? There are too many jade pendants to wear, and he doesn't feel bad about exchanging a piece of jade pendant for another girl: "I just want silver taels, why bother to perform this play? With this time, our rooms are ready. Let's go, I'll take You go to the inn to take a good look at the jade pendant."
