After hearing Ying Qingci's words, Qiuyue remembered what the man just said and looked up at her.
Ying Qingci nodded.
"Tingfeng, I remember you said before that the old man of the Su family has an upright character?"
"Yeah." Perhaps it was because he had no other children for so many years that Mr. Su subconsciously began to do good deeds.
Ying Qingci nodded. Even so, she couldn't place all her hopes on him.
"Lingxu, go..."
After finishing speaking, Ying Qingci took out a few banknotes from his body and handed them to him.
"Yes, miss."
"Tingfeng, please go and investigate for me..."
"good."
Tingfeng nodded, and then his figure disappeared.
"Qiuyue, wait for me here first, I'll go to Su's house."
"No, miss..."
After Qiuyue heard Ying Qingci's words, she quickly retorted.
None of the Su family knew much about it, and if Ying Qingci went alone, she would be worried that something would happen.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. Just go to the stall next to me and wait for me."
"Can……"
Qiuyue wanted to say something more, but after meeting Ying Qingci's eyes, she swallowed all the words that came to her mouth.
"Then, miss, you must be more careful."
"rest assured."
After saying that, Ying Qingci turned around and followed the nearby alley directly to the back door of Su's house.
The Su family is not an ordinary family. There should be a servant at the back door.
Ying Qingci took a look at the surrounding situation.
The alley is very wide, but not far away, there is a tree there.
Ying Qingci's eyes flashed and she walked up to the tree.
After stopping, she looked up at the tree in front of her. Compared to the dead trees she encountered while escaping, this tree had lush branches and many branches.
She took a few steps back and used her strength to climb up the tree in front of her.
Standing on the tree, the Su family's yard is clearly visible.
Through the branch, she used the cover of the leaves to walk to the branch closest to the wall. Fortunately, she was light in weight, otherwise, the branch might not be able to bear her weight.
She knew that those martial arts masters knew how to do light kung fu, but she didn't know how to do it.
I can only climb trees by reducing my weight.
There was only one boy in the yard. Most of the people should have gone to the front yard. However, if she went down this time, it was unlikely that she would be able to get to Mr. Su.
Just as he was thinking about it, something flashed out of the corner of his eye.
She jumped directly from the tree.
The middle-aged woman passing by was shocked when she saw this.
"You...who are you?"
"Auntie, don't be afraid, I don't mean any harm."
Even so, the woman still looked at Ying Qingci with vigilance in her eyes.
However, when his eyes fell on her face, he was slightly stunned.
This girl is so pretty. Thinking about it, she must not be a bad person, right?
"Girl, why are you running up the tree?"
"Is this aunt going to the Su family?"
Ying Qingci did not answer the question, but looked at the woman and spoke.
"Yes." The woman nodded.
"Aunt like this, my mother is seriously ill, but my brother works here, and I can't find him, and the servants won't let me in... So, I can only climb the tree to see if he can see me. My brother..."
When the woman heard Ying Qingci's words, a trace of pity flashed in her eyes.
"Then...girl, tell me and I will help you tell your brother."
Women are also parents. If they are sick and cannot see their children, they will feel very uncomfortable. Now that I heard this, I suddenly felt the same.
"That's it...Auntie, my brother is at the eldest lady's place, he..."
As soon as Ying Qingci finished speaking, the woman's expression changed obviously.
In their eyes, the eldest daughter of the Su family is an extremely difficult master who cannot be messed with.
"Girl, this..."
The woman hesitated immediately. She didn't want to provoke Miss Su.
"Auntie, I know your concerns, so I don't force you to speak to me, but... can you let me deliver this dish for you, and I can take the opportunity to see my brother?"
"Don't worry, I'm sure you won't get into trouble."
"this……"
Ying Qingci took out a piece of broken silver and stuffed it into the woman's hand, "Please do me a favor, my mother-in-law really can't wait any longer..."
The woman looked up and looked around. When she found that no one was around, she quickly put the money in her hand.
He nodded and took down the vegetable basket in his hand and the hair towel on his head.
"Girl, you put this on. Also, my surname is Hua. If they ask, just say..."
She glanced at Ying Qingci, who was quite well-dressed, but still a little richer, "It's just your clothes..."
The person who delivered the food was not that rich, and the clothes she was wearing didn't match her.
Ying Qingci glanced at the woman opposite. There was some dirt on her body. She lowered her head, touched it from the ground, and threw it on her body. Her clothes now looked very old.
"That's what I say, but, girl, I still want to remind you not to provoke that Miss Su..."
As for her brother, he has probably encountered something unexpected.
Alas, another poor man.
"Okay, thank you, aunt."
Ying Qingci focused her gaze back into his eyes.
After his wife left, Ying Qingci reached out to make her hair more dusty, took out the rouge from the space, and darkened it. After doing all this, she raised her hand and knocked on the door.
'Squeak——'
The door was opened from the inside, and a head poked out.
The boy saw a dark girl outside the door, still dirty. He frowned and waved his hand to drive her out.
"Go, go, go! We don't welcome beggars here!"
"Brother, I came here today to deliver food."
"The food delivery guy?"
Hearing Ying Qingci's mosquito-like voice, he couldn't help but frown.
"What kind of food delivery guy?"
"Brother, Aunt Hua is not feeling well today, so I will take Aunt Hua's place."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" The boy muttered, then opened the door and let Ying Qingci walk in.
Following the young man, Ying Qingci's eyes fell on the surroundings and he looked around carefully.
"Brother, the Su Mansion is so big. Do Master Su and the others live here?"
After hearing Ying Qingci's words, the servant sneered, "Don't ask about noble people."
However, meeting Ying Qingci's curious eyes, the young man finally softened his words and said coldly, "How can we live with the nobles? As for the master and the others, they naturally live in the courtyard inside. .”
After saying this, it seemed to be to dispel the thought that she shouldn't have had.
"I advise you, don't have any inappropriate thoughts!"
"how could be?"
"I...I'm just curious..."
"Curious? Sometimes, curiosity can kill people,"
The waiter glanced at her and then said, "Here we are, the kitchen is in front of us. After you put down the dishes, leave quickly."
After saying that, the boy left without looking back.
