Traveling through books to ancient times, I provoke the love of villains and powerful ministers

Qi Qingxi did not expect that because of her, the plot of the original book was fast-forwarded, and Qi Qingqing entered the capital so early.

But she remembered that after Qi Qingqing arrived in the capital, it took a long time to slowly mix into the circle of ladies in the capital, and then she met the male protagonist.

So it's still too early for Qi Qingqing to help the male protagonist seize power...

"Ouch……"

"Sorry sorry."

Qi Qingxi was thinking about things while walking, but she didn't notice that there were two people sitting at the corner in front of her shop, and accidentally knocked down one of the little girls.

She immediately went forward to help the little girl up: "Are you all right?"

The woman next to the little girl also immediately stood up and pulled the little girl into her arms, then kept looking at Qi Qingxi.

She looked at Qi Qingxi, and Qi Qingxi also looked at the two.

In the cold winter that was about to snow, the two of them only wore two pieces of thin underwear full of patches, and their faces were dry and sallow.

A gust of north wind whizzed by, and the cold wind sent a biting coolness through the clothes, Qi Qingxi couldn't help wrapping the cloak around her body tightly.

The next moment, she saw the little girl who was only about the same age as Qi Nuan, shivering from the cold, with a pair of red hands tightly pinching the corner of the woman's clothes.

Qi Qingxi sighed, took off the cloak on her body, went to the little girl and knelt down to put it on for her, then tied a knot seriously in front of her.

She has arrived at the door of the store. If it is cold, she can go to the backyard and get another dress to put on.

Qi Qingxi looked at the little girl again, and after confirming that she was fine, she got up to go back to the store, but someone grabbed her sleeves.

She turned her head to look at the person pulling her sleeve, it was the woman next to the little girl.

She looked at Qi Qingxi and pursed her lips, as if she had made up her mind and said, "Girl, you bumped into my daughter..."

Qi Qingxi frowned slightly, bumped into her daughter, and then?

She didn't speak, but watched quietly, wondering what the woman was going to say next.

The woman stood in front of her at a loss, looking very embarrassed: "You bumped into my daughter, can you please...please buy two steamed buns as compensation...to compensate her."

Qi Qingxi was a little surprised. She probably guessed that this woman wanted to take the opportunity to blackmail her, but she didn't guess that she just blackmailed her with two buns.

At this moment, the little girl hugged the woman tightly and buried her head in the woman's arms.

The woman choked up again and said, "You must be able to afford two buns. I'm sorry she hasn't eaten a bite of food for several days. Please do me a favor."

No wonder the woman kept looking at her just now, she was trying to make sure if she could afford two buns.

The year was not good, there were floods and earthquakes, and many refugees came to beg a few days ago. She guessed that the mother and daughter were refugees who escaped.

"Come in with me."

Qi Qingxi took the mother and daughter into the store, found a seat and asked them to sit down, went to the back kitchen to fill two bowls of soup and brought them in front of them.

"This is my sister's favorite peanut ribs soup. You guys have a bowl of soup first. I'm asking the master to make it for you."

The woman looked at the big bowl of soup full of peanut ribs in front of her, and quickly waved her hands slightly: "No, no, thank you very much for buying us soup, and I can't ask you to spend more money."

Qi Qingxi patted the little girl's head: "I opened this small shop. It's cheaper for you to eat these than I spend money to buy steamed buns. Eat it quickly, don't let it get cold."

Then she got up and went to the counter to help Wang Xiucai settle the accounts.

The mother and daughter walked up to Qi Qingxi to thank him after eating, and took off the cloak on the little girl to return it to her.

Qi Qingxi quickly stopped her: "It's such a cold day, let's put it on, don't freeze the child."

The woman gave up after hearing what she said, and took the child to thank her for a long time before leaving.

Qi Qingxi nodded to them with a smile, and sent the two out of the store.

The mother and daughter had just taken two steps, when a fat middle-aged man rushed out from the side, grabbed the woman, stretched out his hand and slapped her across the face, the corner of the woman's mouth immediately saw blood.

And the little girl didn't dare to speak, she just pulled the corner of the woman's clothes and shivered with her head lowered, as if she was used to this kind of scene for a long time.

Qi Qingxi heard the fat man yelling loudly at the mother and daughter while beating them: "I said why can't I find you, and dare to steal my money and come here to enjoy it, and see if I don't beat you to death."

The woman cried with a pale face: "No, no, no money stolen..."

Seeing that the woman does not recognize the man is another punch and kick.

The woman was beaten so badly that her nose was bruised and her face was swollen. Her hair was disheveled and she didn't resist at all. Instead, she squatted on the ground and stretched out her hands to pull the little girl into her arms to protect her tightly.

The spectators gathered round after round, and even diners who were eating in a restaurant also ran out to watch.

Qi Qingxi couldn't help but rushed forward and pushed the man away: "Are you trying to beat her to death here?"

The fat man squinted at Qi Qingxi: "She is my wife, I can do whatever I want."

Qi Qingxi stopped talking nonsense with him, and said angrily: "If you dare to do something again, I will report to the official that you are going to kill someone."

Wang Xiucai, Aunt Osmanthus and Master Fan in the store also ran out and stood behind Qi Qingxi when they heard the movement.

Seeing that Qi Qingxi and the others were numerous and powerful, the fat man kicked the woman hard: "Fortunately, you bitch, I'll settle the score with you when I get home."

Then he glared at Qi Qingxi, turned around and walked away with his fat body dragging.

"What's the matter?" Qi Qingxi asked.

The woman was so beaten that her whole body hurt, her head was dizzy, and she couldn't speak for a while.

The little girl who had been afraid to speak in her arms suddenly spoke, sobbing: "Father and grandma blamed my mother for not having a son, beat me and my mother every day, and didn't give me food."

Qi Qingxi called Aunt Osmanthus, and helped the mother and daughter into the shop again.

She looked at the bruised woman and the trembling little girl in the woman's arms, and thought of what the fat man threatened the woman when he left, so she was speechless.

Not to mention this era, even her original era, there are still many couples who divorce because they can't have a son, or women who can't get a certificate because they can't have a son.

It is even common for some women who are unable to give birth to sons to be subjected to domestic violence. Reporting to the police is only a temporary relief. As soon as the police leave, they immediately revert to their old ways. Waiting for women is still endless domestic violence.

Unless you can get a divorce.

But in this era background, women are bound by feudal dogma, and the three obediences and four virtues that almost destroy human nature, even if they want to, it is not easy to leave.

She suddenly remembered that in this era, if a woman cannot give birth to a son, she has committed a crime. Why didn't that fat man divorce his wife?

Qi Qingxi went to Yunhui's room to find medicine for wounds and medicinal wine for traumatic injuries, and gave the woman medicine.

"Why doesn't he let you go?" Qi Qingxi thought for a while, and felt that it was a bit hurtful for her to ask such a straightforward question, and she explained, "What I mean is, he thought you couldn't have a son and let you go, so that you can be relieved , and Cui Cui, they don’t have to be abused by him anymore.”

She remembered that the little girl's mother called her Cui Cui.

Hearing Qi Qingxi's words, the woman began to cry silently.

After a while, she spoke: "He said that unless I die, I will never escape for the rest of my life."

After speaking, he threw himself on the table and cried loudly.

Qi Qingxi thought for a long time but did not think of any way to help the mother and daughter out of the predicament.

I had no choice but to tell them that they could come to her shop for a meal at any time in the future when sending them away. This was the only little favor she could do so far.
