23. The troubles of juvenile illness 04
This woman is the proprietress of a song and dance workshop in Zhu City, west of the city, known as Mrs. Yu, and was a famous prostitute with both color and art when she was young. It is said that she was originally from a good family, but then she was in the dust, but she was as gentle and lovely as a flower of interpretation. She redeemed herself fifteen years ago, but did not leave after that, but used the savings she had saved over the years to open a song and dance workshop, called the Wei Rui Pavilion, to take in other lonely and poor women, teach dance music, and sell her art without selling her body.
Gu Xuezhou is in the fat powder business, and the guests naturally have the daughters of the fireworks. Dingjiang is not better than the countryside, Zhu City is on the side of the West Bridge, the winding alleys are twisting and turning, carved beams and painted buildings, it is a well-known ** gentle township, and the daughter's family there can not lack rouge gouache for anything. When Gu Xuezhou first opened a store in Dingjiang, there were no guests, a little girl from Wei Rui Pavilion passed by, played in Xiangxuezhai and bought flour fat rouge, and after going back, I felt good and gave it to the little sisters. Later, before the Doufang Festival, the Yaofang lady who was going to participate in the competition in Weirui Pavilion suddenly had a rash on her face, and she couldn't see it well when she looked for a doctor. Since then, Mrs. Yu has been impressed with him, and has reciprocated the peach, and the monthly rouge gouache money has been sent to Xiangxuezhai to wrap up, not only that, but also to help him introduce business, and their Xiangxuezhai business has only become prosperous day by day.
Mrs. Yu is used to seeing men, she is bored in her days, and once she accidentally discovered that Gu Xiaodong, who is all over the girls, is actually very innocent, and after a little flirtation/play, he will blush, so funny, every time he sees Gu Xiaodong's family, he can't help but tease a few words, don't make him red-faced, don't give up.
But this is the first time she has touched Gu Xuezhou's face, she was a little surprised when she touched it, it felt really good, cool and slippery, it was said to be a shelled egg, but it was not so soft, it was said to be warm jade, but it was not so hard, it was just in the middle, soft but not greasy. She is in her own Wei Rui Pavilion, she has touched the faces of so many little girls, compared to this, Gu Xuezhou's face is also easy to touch, and she can't help but put away her thoughts, and she really wants to ask Gu Xuezhou what she uses to maintain her skin.
Before he could speak, a person suddenly popped out on the side, startling Madame Yu to take a step back. Mu Yan half-hugged Gu Xuezhou and walked away two steps, dragged the person to a safe position, and forced the person to turn over and not be allowed to look at the girl over there, turned around, with a smile on his face, and said politely: "Hello Mrs. Yu, I came here today to pick up the goods in person, my brother is weak and can't lift heavy objects, so it's better for me to serve." ”
The few little girls who accompanied Mrs. Yu saw Brother Mu'er smile and their cheeks turned crimson and their hearts swayed, they followed Xiangxuezhai to see if they could meet this little Langjun, but Mrs. Yu saw a lot of beautiful men, this kind of hypocrisy, pretentious little ghost could not tell her to take a few more looks. But in this case, she also had to be a little more reserved, so she straightened her face and smiled slightly: "Exactly, then it will bother the little brother." ”
Gu Xuezhou was also relieved at this time, and Madam Yu couldn't help but ask when she passed by him, "What kind of maintenance do you use in private?"
Gu Xuezhou replied curtly: "It's nothing special, it's just the things in the store, and the ones I rub are also those sold to the little ladies." Go to bed early and get up early every day, do exercise, and eat lightly. ”
Mrs. Yu sighed: "Then you are born with jade bone ice muscles, can you?"
made Gu Xuezhou blushful again.
Mu Yan looked at the piercing eyes, and walked over to block Gu Xuezhou in front of them and didn't allow them to speak, "Madam, is there anything else you need?"
Madame Jade raised her eyebrows, "No." "I'm afraid that if I continue to talk about it, Gu Xiaodong's cat will show its claws.
Mu Yan helped them pack the rouge flower dew gouache and pancreas they picked up, and put them into a customized red lacquered wooden box, which was a bit heavy, and An Zhi might not be able to lift it, but he could pick it up with one hand and carry the things onto Madame Yu's carriage.
Madam Yu smiled, "What's the matter? Don't worry, I won't really treat Xiao Gu well, I treat him like a nephew." ”
Mu Yan hesitated for a moment before asking softly, "Have you ever heard of one...... A woman named Roujia?"
Madam Yu was stunned for a moment: "Do you know what kind of women I know?"
Mu Yan nodded: "I know." Then he added, "She is from the capital, she was ransomed during this time about fifteen or sixteen years ago, she is extremely beautiful, and she plays the piano well, have you ever heard of such a person?"
Mrs. Yu probably understood what Mu Yan meant, she put away her nonchalant attitude and looked at Mu Yan's face, "I know a little about the famous prostitutes who became famous twenty or thirty years ago, but for a while, I can't think of a person named Rou Jia." ”
"I don't know if I changed my name, maybe my name is Roujia. Mu Yan said.
Madam Jade smiled, "You little ghost, what are you going to pay if you want me to help?"
Mu Yan saw that he couldn't deceive someone into giving him white help, pursed his lips, and his gentle expression revealed a bit of arrogance and coldness, but he couldn't let this woman have the upper hand over him, looking like you love to help or not.
Mrs. Yu said: "I can help you, it's better for you to repay me like this, just like that incident just now, if it happens again in the future, you will not see ......"
"No!" Mu Yan lowered his face, he thought for a while, "I will give you a promise, in my lifetime, I can help you do one thing, not breaking the law." …… By the way, I won't marry you, and you won't let me marry anyone, I will never do such a ridiculous thing. ”
Mrs. Yu's double-sided embroidered magnolia peach blossom pendant white jade fan bought for five taels of gold knocked on Mu Yan's head, she snorted, but was aroused by Mu Ge'er's interest, "Okay, this reward is interesting, it's the first time I've seen the yellow-haired boy who has not dried up in front of me boasting that his face is not red, he is promising, he is a talent, I will help you." ”
Mu Yan got out of the car and watched Mrs. Yu's canopy incense car run over the bluestone road.
He didn't know much about it when he was young, but as he grew older, he slowly thought about it...... Why is his mother always so sad, why does his father rarely appear, he has never heard of his grandparents and grandparents, he only lives with his mother in a boxy house, lonely and lonely waiting for his father's occasional arrival, and why he still has no name when he grows up to the age of four, and is screamed by his mother's maid "Brother Mu".
This must not be a glorious background, what he guessed was that his mother might be a redeemed kabuki, and the wealth and luxury of his family when he was a child were by no means ordinary people, even if a good family took a concubine, they would not want a woman from the wind and moon, so the mother may be an outer room that was taken care of, and it was not visible.
Even so, it was his mother, and he wanted to see her and find out about his background.
Mu Yan sorted out his mood, turned back, opened the curtain and entered, Gu Xuezhou looked up and only glanced at him, and suddenly found that he was a little lonely. Worriedly, he stepped out from behind the cabinet and stepped forward, "What's wrong?"
Those eyes were full of concern and tenderness, and Mu Yan couldn't help but take him into his arms without speaking. In this world, only An Zhi knows that he understands him and loves him to such an extent.
Gu Xuezhou didn't know what was going on, but his Brother Mu had always been proud and arrogant, and he rarely saw him like this, so he didn't ask much, hugged him back and stroked his back, just like when Brother Mu hugged him by the waist when he was a child, he would touch Brother Mu'er's head.
"Scared, what are you doing?" Gu Bo saw this unsightly scene as soon as he entered the door.
Mu Yan had to let go of people.
Gu Xuezhou replied to Gu Bo without any evil thoughts: "What are you doing? ”
"Brother Mu'er, you are so old, you can't hold the master casually like when you were a child!" Gu Bo taught, "Master, you are really spoiled by him." ”
Mu Yan was not ashamed at all, he didn't feel at ease what Gu Bo said, after all these years, he and this old guy still didn't deal with each other at all, and the two of them hated each other so much that they gritted their teeth, but unfortunately it was because they were in the way of Gu Xuezhou and couldn't really treat each other.
Mu Yan has been sad and sad when he thinks of his mother's affairs these days, and only An Zhi can comfort him, so he can't wait to be by An Zhi's side from time to time, and stick to it when he is free.
On this day, Gu Xuezhou went out to buy things, and he also saddled up and rode by his side, and it was good to be a coolie to carry things.
When Gu Xuezhou and him were selecting persimmons in front of the stall where he was working, there was a commotion from behind. Gu Xuezhou stood up and looked over, "What's going on?"
He pricked up his ears to listen, and heard an old woman shouting, "Catch the thief!
Gu Xuezhou was startled, and when he looked over, a young man jumped up and down in the crowd and ran straight over, but no one could touch him. The boy was fifteen or sixteen years old, with his hair tied high in a ponytail at the back of his head, his wheat-colored skin, short brown and straw sandals, his sleeves tied high, and a faint blue-black tattoo on his right arm, as if he were part of some beast, and at first glance he looked like a gangster. A carriage happened to come out of the alley and cross the street, blocking the boy's way, but he did not stop but ran faster, jumped up and jumped high on the carriage, single, and turned over and jumped down cleanly, like a little leopard.
Mu Yan is not interested in others being stolen and robbed, this person's kung fu is good, Mu Yan couldn't help but look at it twice, and when he came back to his senses and wanted to pull Gu Xuezhou to the side station so as not to be injured by mistake, he suddenly found that the fool actually rushed over to arrest someone.
As soon as the young man stood firmly, he was unfortunately touched by Gu Xuezhou who found a gap and grabbed his arm. Gu Xuezhou panted and said, "Don't run, return the things to the old man!"
"Get out of the way!" the young man didn't care about him, and pushed Gu Xuezhou away as soon as he raised his hand.
"Anzhi!" Mu Yan shouted, he saw Gu Xuezhou falling, his heart was on fire, and he finally made a move-Damn, which hand did this short-eyed bastard use to push An Zhi's? I'm going to take off his arm!
