Mercury was not ready to call the little girl who called Jin. She was Li Lanzhi's daughter, not hers, and she had no responsibility to this little girl. It would be fine if she was forced to become Li Lanzhi. If she had to take the initiative to bear the responsibilities and life that belonged to others, wouldn't she suffer?

Besides, there are so many pitiful people in this world, not only the little girl. She came from Liancheng along the way and saw too many people who couldn't survive and sell their children. Poor orphans were everywhere. There are thousands of pains in the world, and the little girl may not have tasted it. Why should she be an outsider be troubled?

Although she was not prepared to do anything, she met her after all, and the Yinlou was not far from the street, so she could occasionally see Lai Jin.

Generally speaking, most of those who do flesh and flesh business start to open their doors at the age of twelve or thirteen. Lai Jin is not old yet, so she is disciplined by her mother and aunt and sister. She helps people cook, wash clothes and runs errands and does everything. She seems to have been there for several years and is very accustomed to the environment she is in.

Mercury once saw Lai Jin being pulled by a woman in her hair and ears and cursed her on the street, as if she was saying that she had washed her clothes. If she had changed to an ordinary little girl, she would definitely cry now, but Lai Jin was not, and she smiled, shouting loudly while shouting some flattering words, and deliberately made a weird and funny expression, which made the woman laugh.

The woman kicked her ass, kicked her to the ground and rolled her around twice, which relieved her anger and turned the matter over. When Mercury saw Lai Jin coaxing the woman away with a smile on her front, she patted the soil on her clothes and scolded the woman's butt at the base of the wall. Her face became faster.

It is hard to say whether such a little girl will grow into a "good person" or a "bad person" in the society in the future, but she will definitely make herself live a better life in the current environment.

Mercury has been in Mei City for more than half a year and has a small savings. The old accountant in the Yin Building quit his job and went home to retire. The Yin Building did not hire any other accountant. Seeing that she was doing the accounts clearly and had a good memory, shopkeeper Tian praised her several times and asked her for wages, hoping that she could continue working here.

Mercury suspected that he might not have given up on letting her be the son-in-law, so she asked her to go down to his house for dinner early in the morning. She refused and took the initiative to ask for overtime.

Every New Year Festival, Silver House is the busiest time, and there are many things to do. Mercury is busy in the building until very late at night.

It is very cold in winter and it is dark very early. At this time, people have no entertainment at night and stay at home to sleep early, so there is no one after night.

Mercury closed the door of the Silver Tower and walked back in the night with a night light. The swaying light of the lamp was not bright, so she didn't even light it. The light tonight was not dim, and the snow around her reflected light, enough for her to see the road clearly.

When she was almost passing a street near Nong Street, she heard a burst of curses.

"Did you steal it? You said!"

"It's not me, sister, it's really not me!"

"Not you have anyone else. Every day I look at my head and hands. When I see something good, I can't take my eyes open. My hands and feet are not clean. Today I steal a bracelet. Will I still have to steal my private money tomorrow?!"

"I really don't. I only entered your room once today, and I went to wash the dirty clothes..."

"You are still lying! Take out what you stole quickly! Otherwise, you will kneel here for me all night!"

The girl who was talking looked very young, only seventeen or eighteen years old, she was standing under the eaves with a basin of water, and cursing, while the person kneeling in the snow in front of her was Lai Jin. She was soaked all over, and water was dripping from her hair, her whole body trembling, her voice was thin and trembling.

"I really don't have it, Sister Six. I really didn't lie. Today, a few sisters have also been to your room."

"Shut up, will others greed for me? We are the only ones who are greedy for money here."

Lai Jin explained in a crying voice, "But I really didn't take it. If I took it, I would be thundering and thunder would be dying. I swear to God to the Mother of the Earth, "You believe me, Sister Six!"

The girl sneered, turned around and entered the room: "It seems that you don't know your mistake yet. When will you admit it and when will you get up again."

She left, leaving Jin kneeling in the dark night of ice and snow.

Mercury stood at the intersection and looked at it for a while. When she saw this, she thought to herself: What a pitiful memory of the suffering.

Suddenly, she saw Lai Jin getting up from the ground, jumping in the spot like an electric shock, making a silent swearing gesture, and then rubbing her hands and crawling into a door next door with the lights on.

Sure enough, he was not punished properly.

Mercury smiled unconsciously.

The next morning she passed by nearby, and heard another shouting and scolding. Lai Jin was chased by the girl last night and ran around the streets, crying and screaming. I wonder how lively it was. The girl shouted to break her legs.

In the afternoon, I went to the near the vegetable market to buy a duck and go back to improve the food. Mercury saw Lai Jin again, but she was still carrying the vegetable basket and limping. I thought she was indeed beaten in the morning.

But when she was beaten like this, she was still tough and awesome. She squatted in front of a stall in the vegetable market and grinded her mouth with the stall owner for a long time. Finally, she was satisfied with the extra two green onions.

When passing by the door of the house, he saw the boy who had long been resentful and insisted on grimacing at him. The child jumped up and scolded her. Lai Jin was lame and refused to admit defeat. He stepped forward and kicked a large area of ​​snow and smashed the child's face. Seeing the child crying and running into the house, she laughed gloatingly and limped quickly.

He is a very energetic thin monkey.

After that, Mercury had never seen her. She happened to encounter Lai Jin and would take a look at her when she was interested, but she would not go to see her on purpose, so she didn't know what happened to Lai Jin. It was the shopkeeper who chatted with the clerk. When she talked about the streets, she knew about Lai Jin's situation.

"That little girl comes to Jin, is she dead?" Mercury asked in surprise.

Seeing that the gentleman in the store had a rare conversation, the shopkeeper came and put down the teapot and chatted with her, "Yes, why, Li Yin, do you know this little girl?"

Mercury: "I have seen someone before. I saw him a few days ago. How did he die?"

Lai Jin died in the plot several years later, how could he die so suddenly now?

The shopkeeper waved his hand: "I don't know if people are dead now, but I just spent the night from my fourth sister last night. I heard that the little girl was very sick, her eyes couldn't open and her body was stinky. My mother at home said that it was not good for people to die in the house. Today, I want to throw her into the righteous office. Hi, don't you know yet? If a person enters the righteous office, it's almost the same as death."

At this time, poor people rarely delay medical treatment and medicine when they get sick. Most of them are self-sufficiency. If they can't survive, they can live, and if they can't survive, they will die. After all, many times, even if they take medicine, they will not be cured. No matter who is poor, they are willing to waste money. Needless to say, they would not hire a doctor for her when they come to the place where the money is.

Yishu is the place where the bodies are released. There are so many people living in Mei City, and the bodies cannot be thrown around. Beggars who die on the street or those who are unattended will be carried there if they are almost breathing. They will soon be taken to a mountain outside the city and buried.

The life and death of an unfamiliar girl was just a little talk after work, and she lost her sigh. The shopkeeper chatted for a few words and talked about the erotic bed affairs he had with his fourth sister last night. This topic was obviously more popular than the previous one. The two guys surrounded him and listened with relish.

Mercury had no idea about their yellow jokes, she thought for a while and poured a cup of hot tea and continued to work.

She is not a Bodhisattva who saves suffering and suffering the world. She cannot be responsible for other people's lives. All she can do is to let herself live and to protect the only small world in front of her.

...But, that's it.

She still walked into the street after work.

"Come to Jin? That little girl is only breathing. We are just about to send her away. If you want it, just give her a few dollars, but I have agreed that if we die, we will not refund the money, and the body cannot be sent back to us."

Mercury just carried Lai Jin back like this.

She had a fever, high fever, and the injuries on her legs were inflamed and ulcerated. If it weren't for this weather, she would have died. She walked back all the way, and Lai Jin did not react at all. Mercury didn't hear her breath for a while, and she thought she was dead. She touched her neck for a while before she confirmed that she was still angry.

People who are in desperate situations often pray for help from others, the less no one will help them. Mercury recalls when she was in despair and pain, and no one came to save her, so she always feels that things in the world are like this, and they all go their own way and don’t interfere in other people’s affairs.

She doesn't like saving people or trouble, but sometimes in a person's life, there are some sudden impulses that make people do things different from their habits. Perhaps it's because she has experienced too much, and she will change a little.

Everyone has been brought back, and giving up halfway is not her style.

She studied medicine in a certain world before, but she had not graduated yet, and had very little practice. She had not been in contact with her for some years. She had very good hands. Now she doesn’t have any tools or medicines on her hands. She had to do a simple first aid first and then get some medicine for her, hoping that she can survive this.

Maybe it was really the inertia of the plot. Jin Sheng should not be defeated. After a few days, she subsided and she woke up.

"So, did you buy me back? How much did it cost?" Lai Jin's first reaction was to ask this.

Mercury glanced at her and made a gesture.

Lai Jin cursed and swearing, "So little? You're really cheap! If I'm in two years, I won't be the price, at least a hundred times, you know?"

As soon as she woke up, she showed a different vitality from the beginning of cursing, and she didn't look like a patient who almost came back after walking in the gates of hell.

She lay on the bed and stared at Mercury suspiciously for a while and then asked tentatively: "You bought me back, are you going to be a child bride for you?"

I have seen a lot of things like this. Men who have no money like to buy a little girl to raise. When they were young, they could work for their family. When they were raised, they became a wife, which was very cheap.

Mercury was caught off guard and was choked. She put down her cup and looked at the little girl who was talking nonsense with a complicated expression.

Mercury: "I don't like little girls, nor do I want to marry a wife."

Lai Jin's little eyes that were originally hiding nervousness immediately stabilized a lot, and a little relaxed appeared on his white and miserable little face, and he said casually: "Then why are you buying me for nothing? Could it be that you are my father?"

mercury:"……"

Mercury: "So much talk, are you okay? If you are okay, go back to your own place, I don't care."

Lai Jin was stunned and immediately rolled up the quilt and shouted loudly: "That won't work! I've left that broken place, who would still want to lick the rotten butts of those old women!"

"Uncle, don't look at me as young as I might have done it. You won't suffer any loss when you buy me! I'm working for you. You look handsome, and you look different from us. You look like a scholar. Nowadays, any scholar who has not served at home can serve you. I can just take care of you. Just take care of food and accommodation. I can support you easily!"

I have a small mouth, I don’t know why I can speak so much, and I’m not afraid of being a child at all.

Mercury pinched his nose bridge: "Can you stop talking about the word "bad butt" in the future?"
