Chapter 227 Servant of the Guilty Slave
The Red Tent is where the military prostitutes lived. [with _ dream]ā
It is said that Yang Huaiqing often used to take care of the business over there, and there were quite a few confidants in it.
Everyone has become a close woman, and there is no taboo when it comes to some meat and vegetarian food.
The officers here are all low-level officers like An Shicheng, most of them climbed up from the bottom by virtue of their military merits, and most of their wives are naturally from small families, and their literacy is not high on the one hand, on the other hand, life here is too closed.
This time is just in time to talk about Yang Huaiqing. Those wives knew that Yang Huaiqing had ruthlessly lowered Qiu Ruyi's face, and when they mentioned Yang Huaiqing at this time, they came to talk to Qiu Ruyi, and then they also wanted to get some details of the day in the city from her mouth, so that they could be used as a good conversation in the future.
But they ignored the paragraph that Yang Huaiqing had saved An Shicheng.
Qiu Ruyi now knows that her husband has befriended Yang Huaiqing, not only because he is a general, but also because of his life-saving grace. Even if he didn't know this life-saving grace, Qiu Ruyi didn't want to talk about the events of that day, it wasn't a long-faced thing. Now that she knew that he had saved her husband, she couldn't even say that he wasn't, and she couldn't sit there with peace of mind and listen to these wives Hu Qin.
In fact, these wives have no malice, but Qiu Ruyi is thin-skinned in the end, and he really doesn't adapt to this atmosphere, and he doesn't plan to adapt to it.
How outsiders comment, Qiu Ruyi doesn't care, I just hope that I won't be isolated, so that it will affect my husband, the swords and guns on the battlefield are ruthless, one is not careful, but he is going to lose his life, there is no harm in having a good popularity, now it seems that his popularity is acceptable, and Qiu Ruyi is satisfied.
It's just that she really didn't expect that she would be as cold and hard as Yang Huaiqing, but she would have such a romantic character.
However, it was his private matter, and Qiu Ruyi couldn't care about it, she was worried about another thing.
After enduring it for a few days, she finally asked her husband, "Have you ever been to the Red Tent?"
An Shicheng frowned: "In the future, I will be with those three aunts and six women." ”
"I'm just asking, what are you anxious about?" Qiu Ruyi said dissatisfiedly, his eyes rolled, and he smiled again: "What kind of people are there?"
An Shicheng's brows were furrowed so much that he could kill a fly: "What are you doing asking this?"
Qiu Ruyi sighed: "My little sister in the past was not classified as a pariax because of her sin, and she was sent to the border many years ago. I've heard people mention in the past that most of the lowly women are slaves and prostitutes, and now I hear that there is such a 'red tent', and I'm really worried about her. Alas, in fact, if she is really in that kind of place, I can't help much, but I know what. ”
The more Qiu Ruyi spoke, the more depressed she became, and her eyes gradually turned red.
An Shicheng also sighed secretly, and said with a smile: "If your little sister is Fang Jin's daughter, you can rest assured, although the two sisters are having a hard time, they really haven't fallen there." ”
"Really, that's great. Qiu Ruyi cried with joy, and said suspiciously: "How do you know that I am talking about the young lady of the Fang family, and how did you know her?"
An Shicheng remembered the clothes in the cabinet, and couldn't help glaring at Qiu Ruyi, but he didn't mention the old things, and said vaguely: "She was originally from the same place as the Qiu family, and I heard that the two families also have a lot of contacts, and only her family in your place was assigned to the border a few years ago." Although I don't know him, but his family is indeed here, and I have seen Fang Jin a few times, looking at your appearance, I guessed right. ”
Qiu Ruyi also believed it, and sighed again: "She is now a lowly person, and it is better to be tired than there." She also told fortunes, and in the red tent, I don't know how many good women have been ruined. ”
An Shicheng was silent.
Although the Northern Army has always governed the army quite strictly, but the battlefield has always been cruel to the extreme, the soldiers must always have a soothing place, so the army will set up a red tent, the Northern Army is not exempt from vulgarity, but it is also very strict in supervision, the girls in the red tent are recruited from the outside fireworks alley, and the soldiers are strictly ordered not to default on prostitution, let alone abuse, treat them, but in the end, those girls are also pitiful, no one is born lewd, cheap, like to live this kind of ushered in the day of laughter.
An Shicheng didn't want to look at Qiu Ruyi's depressed appearance, so he smiled and said: "Don't sigh first, I still have something to ask you here: why don't you worry about me at all when you keep chasing me about the red tent?"
"Why should I worry about you?" Qiu Ruyi said strangely, understood for a while, and couldn't help laughing: "What kind of person are you, I can't trust you." What you have said, that is Chrysostom Yuyan, I will never regret it, I believe you. ”
When the love between husband and wife is strong, it is inevitable that the mountain alliance and the sea oath, it is rare for Qiu Ruyi to trust himself so much, and An Shicheng's heart is instantly filled with joy.
Then again, although Qiu Ruyi was worried about Sister Fang Yun, she had lived in Wubao for more than half a month, but she had never seen their family. Because the places where the slaves lived and served were segregated, and of course the red tents were also segregated.
In this regard, An Shicheng gave an explanation: "They were originally good citizens, once they became criminal slaves, and they became lowly people, unless they had the chance, otherwise it would be difficult for their ancestors to become good people, how could they not have resentment in their hearts? ”
Qiu Ruyi believed An Shicheng's words, because she had inadvertently seen male slaves working out of the city, and there were many gray-haired old men in between, but without exception, their feet were shackled.
"Anyway, they use their hands, not their feet, otherwise if they run to Kitadi, it will be bad. There is no need to sympathize with them, who let them sin, it is an opportunity to atone for their sins. "The ladies are used to this.
If they really committed a crime, it is not unjust to let them do coolies, I am afraid that some of them have been wronged, such as Fang Jin, who was loyal to the emperor, but was deducted sewage on his head, not only was he sent to the border, but his wife and children were also reduced to pariahs and did hard labor here, but it was an injustice of God.
Speaking of the Fang sisters, although Qiu Ruyi also thought that since they could enjoy the glory and wealth because of their father, it was also their duty to fall into the dust with their father, but the sin slaves they saw by chance were living mechanically, and they couldn't help but feel sad for those who encountered the Fang sisters.
Qiu Ruyi doesn't like to go out more and more.
