The mother and daughter of the Sun family persuaded Jia Silian to accept the money, and the three of them returned to Yanghua Hutong. Sanlian had been waiting impatiently at the stall. When he saw Silian coming back, he pulled her and looked her up and down, and then relaxed. In one breath, he stretched out his finger and poked her forehead hard,

"You said you...are trying to kill me!"

He looked back at the Sun family's mother and daughter who were cleaning up the mess in the stall, pulled her sister to the corner and said,

"You said you... were meddling in other people's business, so you weren't afraid of getting yourself into trouble..."

Si Lian responded,

"Seeing that they are about to suffer, I can't just ignore them. Besides... I went to the street to drag that young man over to help. I can't let people enter the Yamen and I don't go to testify. This is not harmful. Human?"

Although it was Mou Biao who wanted to get involved, he was the one who went to the street to call people.

Jia Sanlian Qi Dao,

"Who asked you to call someone? Fortunately, my mother was still taking a nap when I went out. If she knew what you did today, do you think she would beat you to death?"

Jia Silian sighed,

"Such a thing will be spread all over the alleys before it gets dark today. Mom will know about it sooner or later!"

Jia Sanlian said angrily,

"Even if you know that, why are you still meddling in other people's business? You can tell yourself which part of your body is thicker and can withstand a few beatings from your mother?"

"Third sister, don't worry, I have a magic weapon!"

Jia Silian smiled mysteriously and took out a piece of silver from her sleeve.

"With this ingot of silver, my mother won't hit me, right?"

"You...where did you get the money?"

Jia Sanlian looked surprised. When Jia Silian explained the source of the money, Jia Sanlian snorted and looked at the Sun mother and daughter opposite.

"At last they still have conscience. I saw that they were not willing to testify for the young master. But you, a fool, went up there without any idea, and I was very angry..."

After a pause, he said to Si Lian,

"There is some truth in what mother said. The Sun family's mother and daughter are troublemakers. You should stay away from them in the future!"

"Um!"

Jia Silian nodded, suddenly smiled again, and took out another ingot of silver from his sleeve.

"Third sister, look..."

Sanlian's eyes widened,

"You still have it?"

Si Lian nodded heavily,

"Third sister, I will give my mother a piece of silver. With the remaining piece of silver, let's buy some snacks, okay?"

Sanlian's eyes lit up when she heard this. She was a young girl who was about to get married. She had never had a copper coin on her body. Every day, she watched Jia Laoqi ask for coins from Xiangshi and go out to eat, drink and have fun. Her sisters had no money. Not one to be envious, Sanlian's heart skipped a beat when she heard Silian's suggestion, but she was frightened by Xiang's habitual power and hesitated, saying,

"What if my mother finds out?"

Four Lotus Road,

"This is what Aunt Sun thanked me for. We picked a day when my mother was not around and ate quietly outside without telling anyone. How could my mother know?"

After hearing this, Sanlian thought about it and nodded again and again.

"good!"

The two sisters discussed how to sneak the two sisters out without anyone noticing, and use the small piece of silver behind Xiang's back to buy some snacks they had never eaten before.

"I wonder... I can also buy a piece of fabric... for your wedding, Third Sister..."

After hearing this, Sanlian laughed, as if she had heard what her sister said, and she got the flower cloth. She smiled very happily. The two sisters guarded the stall until Jia Jincheng came back, then they cleaned up the stall and carried the load. Returning home, as soon as I entered the door I heard Xiang's shouting and cursing and Liulian's crying.

"I'll treat you like a useless bitch who only knows how to spend money..."

The two put their burdens on and went in. In the main hall, they saw Jia Jincheng sitting aside with a frown and Wulian standing in the corner. He wanted to persuade but did not dare to. Jia Laoqi, however, looked angry and gloating at the same time.

"Well done, your cheap hooves deserve a good beating..."

When Xiang saw the two sisters coming in, he immediately glared.

"Why are you two coming back so late? Why don't you go cook quickly!"

Seeing that Mrs. Xiang had a ferocious look on her face, and even Jia Jincheng was silent, the two of them did not dare to plead for Liulian. They hurriedly turned around and entered the kitchen, but as soon as they took a step forward, a smell of paste hit their faces.

, Sanlian went over and opened the lid of the pot, and saw that the pot was so dark that the original contents had long been hard to see. She knew why Liulian was beaten.

"Liu Lian burned the rice!"

In a poor family at this time, a grain of rice or a handful of firewood are extremely precious. Today's dinner was burnt. No wonder even Dad didn't speak.

The second sister hurriedly cleaned up and cooked again. After it was ready, Si Lian secretly filled a bowl and hid it in a broken earthen jar in the corner. By the time everyone was eating, it was already dark. Liu Lian

Xiang was punished by being forced to kneel in the courtyard and was not allowed to eat dinner.

Mrs. Xiang was still angry at the dinner table, but now that her sixth daughter had been beaten, she still wanted to seek bad luck on her fourth daughter.

"Where did you go crazy this afternoon?"

Si Lian had just taken a bite of rice and saw her asking questions, but he responded calmly,

"Someone is teasing Aunt Sun and Qian Niang today..."

So he told everything about what he had done today. Jia Jincheng frowned and Xiang was furious. The chopsticks in his hand flew over with a cry. Jia Silian tilted his head and hid, then listened to her.

scolded,

"Idiot, who asked you to go to the street to summon people, who asked you to go to the Yamen to testify? That pair of vixens from the Sun family flirt with men every day. Sooner or later, their lives will be ruined by men.

You can't say that you have longed to enter a wealthy family and be a slave, a maid, or a concubine. I want you to mind your own business!"

It was because she was too lazy to come out of the stall today and allowed this little bitch to do such stupid things. It would be better if the Sun family mother and daughter were scolded as soon as possible, so as not to compete with them for business!

Thinking of this, he became even more angry and stood up to attack Si Lian. Seeing this, Si Lian hurriedly said,

"Mom, please don't hit me first...look what this is..."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of silver from his sleeve. When he saw it, Xiang immediately stretched out his hand to grab it. What he saw was that Si Lian's hand was clearly reaching towards him, and his fingers were about to touch the white silver.

Lian suddenly flipped her palm, and the silver turned around in mid-air, reaching towards Jia Jincheng.

"Dad, keep this money..."

Jia Jincheng hummed and glanced at Xiang. Xiang stiffened and watched helplessly as her husband reached out and took the silver.

"Where did you get the money?"

Jia Silian responded,

"This is the aunt of the Sun family thanking her daughter for coming to court to testify and help them get justice. The Yamen fined the evil young man a few taels of silver, and the aunt of the Sun family also got a few taels. She gave one tael to her daughter!"

Jia Jincheng frowned and said to himself,

"Mou's Mansion in Bajiao Alley, isn't that the residence of Mou Bin, the commander of the Jinyi Guards? This time, the Sun family's mother and daughter burned incense and got help from noble people. I think it was the Zhou family who wanted to take revenge afterwards, but they didn't have the guts!"

Thinking of this, the displeasure with the fourth daughter's nosy immediately dissipated a lot.

So he asked Si Lian again,

"Do you know Mr. Mou who helps others?"

Jia Silian shook his head,

"I don't know you. I met you on the street..."

Jia Jincheng nodded and did not ask any further questions. He just praised,

"The widows of the Sun family are good at being good people. At least you didn't bear all the trouble for them in vain!"

Xiang hated to hear people talk about the good things about the Sun family and her daughter. Now that her husband actually praised each other, she felt like a breath was stuck in her chest, neither up nor down. She was so angry that she didn't dare to let it out with her husband, so she could only let it out.

The daughter glared at Si Lian and said,

"You are a shallow-sighted person, but someone bought you for just a tael of silver. The lobby of the Yamen is a place where a little girl like you can go. You are not afraid that the official will take you to jail!"

Jia Silian answered while eating rice,

"Mom, we can't earn even one tael of silver from doing business for a month. I only got one tael of silver from a trip to the court. Besides, the officials in the yamen are all well-educated and well-educated people, and my daughter is just going to do it.

How could you put me in jail for no reason!"

Do you think everyone is like you, not distinguishing everything and only protecting your son?

Xiang's chest hurt even more when she hit her. Jia Jincheng on the side wanted to make up for it. He glared at his wife and said,

"Do you want to eat? If you don't eat, don't stay there..."

Mr. Xiang was so angry that the fat on his body was shaking, so he had the intention not to eat it. But today, Jia Jincheng went to run an errand outside the city and bought a marinated chicken from a farmer's house. He steamed half of it tonight and slaughtered all the three lotus chickens.

Small pieces, filling a full bowl, the whole family except Liulian can share a few pieces, if she doesn't eat, it will be an advantage to these cheap girls!

Thinking of this, Mrs. Xiang had to sit down again angrily, and when she wanted to touch the chopsticks to pick up the chicken, she remembered that she had already thrown the chopsticks away from Silian, and then she calmly ordered Silian,

"Go get me a pair of chopsticks!"
