Chapter 25 Changing name and surname
Li Zhaodi didn't know where she would be betrayed by these people, and she sobbed and shed tears.
Suddenly, the door of the small dark room opened, and cold wind blew in.
She thought the other party was going to sell her out, and she turned pale with fear.
At this time, the skinny woman who had captured her before came in and said angrily to her: "Get up, you girl is really lucky. You have climbed into the Lan family. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have bought you, and you would have saved me a lot of money."
."
Li Zhaodi didn't understand what she meant, so she followed her out tremblingly.
Not far away outside stood a young man and a woman.
At this time, the skinny woman immediately changed her face and said to them with a flattering look on her face: "You two, this is the little girl who just came here today."
The mother-in-law looked at Li Zhaodi and asked, "Little girl, is your name Li Zhaodi?"
Li Zhaodi nodded without knowing why.
"Okay, it's her. Let's sell her body to us. I have to go back and resume my life soon."
"Okay, okay, please wait a moment."
The skinny woman nodded and bowed, then went into the house to get the deed of prostitution.
The mother-in-law took out a piece of silver from her sleeve and handed it to her and said, "My wife said that she can't let you lose money. This money will be treated as if we bought this girl."
"Yes, yes, this girl is so lucky to be favored by Madam."
Although she could earn ten times more money by selling Li Zhaodi to the Jiangnan area, she couldn't afford to offend the Lan family, and she couldn't afford to offend Lan Qinxue's husband's family, so she could only suffer the loss.
The mother-in-law took Li Zhaodi back to Lan Mansion.
Arriving at the door of Lan Qinxue's main house, facing a large mansion and beautiful house that she had never seen before, Li Zhaodi was too timid to step in.
She was afraid that her dirty shoes would soil the delicate carpet on the floor.
Seeing her stop, the mother-in-law said softly: "Little girl, come into the house quickly. Don't worry about anything else."
Li Zhaodi then stepped over the threshold and walked in.
It was very warm in the room. Compared with the outside, she felt as if she was in heaven.
"Madam, we have brought you back."
Lan Qinxue smiled and nodded, "Let her come in quickly!"
As soon as Ah Li heard this, he quickly got off his feet, put on his shoes and ran outside.
I saw that it was really Li Zhaodi who was back.
"Sister Zhaodi, did the bad guys hit you?"
Li Zhaodi looked at Ah Li and her tears fell down. She knew that Ah Li must have found someone to save her.
The woman and the maid next to her felt that half of her face was red and swollen, and her ears and hands and feet were peeling from the cold, and she felt really pitiful.
"I'm fine, Lili, thank you."
Ah Li pulled her to Lan Qinxue, "We should thank Sister Lan."
Li Zhaodi knelt down and kowtowed to Lan Qinxue, "Thank you for saving me."
Lan Qinxue also felt pity for her when she looked at her. What's more, she had just given birth to a child and was overflowing with maternal instincts. She quickly sent someone to find her mother to prepare a cotton-padded jacket for the child.
"It's so distressing. Sit down and have something to eat."
Mrs. Pei pulled Li Zhaodi forward and found that her hands were so cold that they turned purple, so she quickly rubbed her hands to stimulate blood.
"Ms. Huang has gone too far. His own daughter is so cruel. I don't think you need to go back to that home in the future. How can you live outside at such a young age?"
Lan Qinxue discussed with her mother in a low voice, and then said to Mrs. Pei: "Auntie, if this happens, we plan to return to the capital after the year, so why not let her come with me."
Mrs. Pei looked at Lan Qinxue in surprise, "Following Madam is a blessing this girl can't even ask for."
Then they asked Li Zhaodi if she would like to follow Lan Qinxue to the capital.
Li Zhaodi looked at A Li and then at Lan Qinxue, and nodded heavily, "Madam, I am willing."
She knew that she might be sold if she went back, so she was willing to do anything as long as she could leave that home.
"Okay, then you can stay!"
"Sister Zhaodi, won't you go back with us?"
Mrs. Pei asked Ah Li to sit next to her and slowly explained the reason to her.
Ah Li frowned her little eyebrows and nodded like an adult, "Sister Zhaodi can't go home anymore. My aunt is too bad and won't give her food."
She ran to Li Zhaodi and said, "Sister Zhaodi, I will look for you when I grow up."
"Good Lili, thank you. If it weren't for you, I would have been sold to a place far, far away by bad people."
"The name Zhaodi is not very good. How about I give you another name?" Lan Qinxue looked at Li Zhaodi and said.
Li Zhaodi doesn't like her current name either, so of course she would be very willing to change it.
Lan Qinxue thought for a moment, "How about I call you Mingzhu? Take my last name Lan."
Of course Li Zhaodi is very willing. From now on she will be Lan Mingzhu, no longer the little girl in Peach Blossom Village who was hated by her parents.
Mrs. Pei was still worried that Lin Changlu and the others would be worried, so she said goodbye to Lan Qinxue and her daughter.
Lan Qinxue's mother originally planned to invite them to have a meal together, but was afraid that they would be cautious, so she asked the maid to prepare cakes and gifts for them.
It was hard to refuse the Lan Mansion's hospitality, so Pei had no choice but to accept it.
The two little girls A Li and Zhao Di were reluctant to separate. Qingdai smiled and touched their little heads.
"We won't leave until after the new year! Then Miss Ah Li can come to the house to play with the pearl!"
A Li then followed her mother out of Lan Mansion.
Lin Changlu and the others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Ah Li and Mr. Pei coming out safe and sound, and hurried to greet them.
"Are you okay!"
"It's okay, let's talk about it when we get home."
Mrs. Pei turned to Qingdai and said, "Miss Qingdai, please go in! It's very cold outside."
"Okay, then be careful on the road. This is a little tip prepared by the old lady. Please accept it."
The boy at the back held several boxes and handed them to Lin Changlu and his son.
Fortunately, they rushed the carriage here, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to get to the city gate.
After saying goodbye to Qingdai, the group got on the carriage and returned to Taohua Village.
After they returned home, they left Lu Qingling's coachman for lunch before letting him go back.
After all, it was so cold that people had to wait for them for so long, and I felt really bad.
When Ms. Pei came out to pour the dishwater, she happened to meet Ms. Huang who had returned from the county.
She hired Lao Liutou's ox cart to take her to her home and bought a cart full of things.
When Mrs. Huang saw Mrs. Pei, she deliberately asked Lao Liutou to drive the car slowly, and said loudly and arrogantly: "Oh, Aunt Lin, I heard that you also went to the county today, and you came back so early, I'm afraid you don't have money to buy new year's goods.
!You see I didn’t come back until now from shopping.”
Mrs. Pei was furious when she saw her at this moment, but she suppressed it. She couldn't let Mrs. Huang know that Zhaodi had gone to Lan Mansion.
He snorted coldly, "Who knows where your money came from." He added in a low voice, "I don't know if it was a waste of money or not."
