Chapter Twenty-Seven: Redemption
Although Xiao Yuluo is an artist and not a person, but she was desperate at the beginning, she did voluntarily sell to Yichun Yuan to be a geisha, black and white paper, the old bustard of Yichun Yuan saw that Chu Yuntian was a member of the Chu family, so she allowed Xiao Yuluo and him to go out, but after all, she was still a person from Yichun Yuan, and she was not free.
In order to be able to be with Yuluo, Chu Yuntian thought about redeeming himself for her. Although Xiao Yuluo is an artist and not a person, after all, it is the signboard of Yichun Garden, and if he wants to redeem himself, it will cost a lot of silver.
The old bustard opened his mouth and said that he wanted a thousand taels of silver before he was willing to redeem Xiao Yuluo, no matter how arrogant Chu Yuntian was, it was impossible to rush to take Xiao Yuluo away, after all, he didn't want Xiao Yuluo to be hurt again, but he really couldn't take out so much money, so he thought of going home to find his father Chu Anguo.
Chu Yuntian returned home and asked Chu Anguo for money.
That day, the father and son of the Chu family were eating, Chu Yuntian suddenly asked his father for money, Chu Anguo was surprised at the time, why did his son, who had never cared about money, suddenly ask for so many silver taels from him, Chu Anguo pondered for a moment, and thought: Did this kid do something hurtful and want to use money.
Thinking of this, Chu Anguo put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand and said angrily: "To be honest, did you do something bad outside again?" ”
Chu Yuntian saw that his father misunderstood him again, so he said, "I didn't, I just wanted to ......."
"What do you think, on weekdays, you didn't do anything wrong that day, telling you to practice martial arts, but you always sneaked out and spent all day drinking with your fox friends and dogs, don't think I don't know. Chu Anguo looked a little angry.
Chu Yunxiao on the side pulled Chu Yuntian and hinted that he should not contradict his father.
Chu Yuntian looked at him, as if to tell him his resoluteness.
"I'm just, alas, anyway, it's not about doing the bad things you said, I just want money to redeem a girl, can you give it?" Chu Yuntian looked at Chu Anguo with that childish spirit and straightened up.
"What? Redeem yourself, don't think that you stinky boy fools around in Yichun Garden all day long, I don't know your father, I still want to help people redeem yourself this time, I think you are getting bolder and bolder, do you still want to marry those ** home, I won't give it, you have the ability to women, you can figure it out yourself!" Chu Anguo gasped and said angrily.
"I'm going to marry her, if I don't give it, I won't give it, I have a way, hum!"
"You rebel, it's against the sky, I'll kill you today. With that, Chu Anguo stood up and stumbled towards Chu Yuntian with a lame leg, ready to hit him with a wooden cane.
Chu Yunxiao hurriedly went to stop his father and hurriedly said, "Daddy, don't be angry, take care of your body." He turned his head again, made a quick gesture and said to his brother, "Go quickly, brother." ”
Chu Yuntian saw that his father was angry, and knew that he would not listen to his explanation again, and when his younger brother told him to leave, he thought that it was better to leave the house first and then make plans.
Chu Yunxiao helped the angry Chu Anguo to sit down, and after Chu Yunxiao comforted him, the two continued to eat, and Chu Anguo no longer paid attention to Chu Yuntian.
Chu Yuntian left the Chu family in a fit of anger, and later it happened to be the Helan brothers and sisters who came to Yudong, so they didn't see Chu Yuntian.
After Chu Yuntian left, he came to Yihong Courtyard, found Xiao Yuluo, and pretended to tell her that he could redeem her immediately, telling her not to worry. But when Xiao Yuluo heard him say this, although he was happy in his heart, he was also worried.
After Chu Yuntian left home, he was thinking about a way behind his back, how to raise money to redeem Yuluo, a thousand taels, it was a small meaning for their Chu family, but now he had a falling out with his father, although the family in Yudong is a big business, but now he wants to rely on the family to get this money, from the current point of view, he still knows that it will not work.
But he still wanted to try it, so he went to many of his stores to secretly get some money, but those housekeepers and shopkeepers and the like were affected by Chu Anguo's words, where did they dare to give him money.
Touching Chu Yuntian, who had a gray nose, thought about it, his head was hot, wasn't it a thousand taels, if he didn't rely on his family, would he be able to stump him Chu Dagongzi?
Chu Yuntian borrowed money from his "friends" again, who knew that when people saw that it was the eldest young master of the Chu family who came to borrow money, they couldn't believe it, he had always eaten, drunk and had fun, but he was actually short of money, ten people, ten people didn't believe it.
Chu Yuntian borrowed all the "friends" that Yu Dong used to play with, some thought it was his prank, so they excused themselves for various reasons; some heard some rumors that he had fallen out with his father, so they became strangers to him and avoided them; and some of them reluctantly lent him some because they asked for favors, and they didn't plan to return it. Bit by bit, Chu Yuntian also got two pieces of silver for nothing, but it was still far from enough.
At this time, Chu Yuntian seemed to understand something, and felt a chill in his heart. He still went to see Xiao Yuluo every day, but not when she was on stage to play music, but when she was resting, he didn't secretly go to Yichun Garden until ten in the evening, and in her boudoir, the two had a brief get-together.
Another night, Chu Yuntian came to Yichun Yuan to get together with Xiao Yuluo, at this time, Xiao Yuluo should know that Chu Yuntian had something to hide from him, so he asked him: "Yuntian, do you have something to hide from me, if there is anything, you can tell me to listen, and I can share the burden for you." ”
"What's the matter, Luo'er, don't think about it, everything is fine, it's just that my father has recently asked me to practice marksmanship diligently, so I don't have time to come more, you won't blame me, right?" Chu Yuntian scratched Yuluo's nose and said.
"How can it be, you are so motivated, I want to praise you. Xiao Yuluo lay down in his arms and said.
Chu Yuntian ran away from home, where would he listen to his father's words to practice marksmanship, in fact, Chu Yuntian was secretly making money. Chu Yuntian knew that how could his beloved know about the hard work, so he cleverly changed the topic. After all, Xiao Yuluo trusted and loved Chu Yuntian deeply, so he no longer doubted him.
For a period of time after that, the two have been like this, although they have less time to meet, but the two love each other more and more.
Most of Yu Dong's business belongs to his family, or they are all families he knows, it is definitely not possible to work in these places to make money, and he has no skills to make a living, so in desperation, he had to paint a flower face, and during the day, he played his own marksmanship on East Street and sold martial arts. After all, Chu Yuntian has been taught marksmanship by his father since he was a child, although he is often slack, but fortunately, he is quite talented, and his martial arts are still some, probably only in the realm of four or five grades.
After leaving home, Chu Yuntian rented a house outside, which was very simple for him, but he was reluctant to spend more money to live in a good house.
Every day is to get up early and return late, on the East Street, there are a lot of people, passers-by will come to him in their spare time, but a whole day is only a dozen or two pieces of silver, if it was in the past, it seems to be like a reward he gave people casually, but now it is so precious to him, although every day is very hard, but he is very happy.
At the end of the day's performance, Chu Yuntian cleaned up as usual, and the servant who came with him was full of complaints: "Childe, what do you say you are doing, you are the eldest son of the Chu family, I don't know how many girls want to be good with you, this Yuluo girl is good, but after all, it is ......."
"Palm. ”
"Yes, yes, it's me who is too talkative. The servant said as he clapped his hands.
"Don't talk nonsense in the future, if you don't know it, if I pay for her, I will feel happy. Chu Yuntian turned angry and said with a smile.
The servant of the family used to have fun with him, but now it suddenly became like this, and there was a big gap in his heart, so he complained about his master, but complaining was complaining, he was still very loyal to Chu Yuntian, otherwise he would not follow him "on the street".
Seeing that he had worked hard for so long, Chu Yuntian was still far from raising enough 1,000 taels of ransom silver, he didn't want Yuluo to stay in Yichun Yuan for a moment, he really wanted to be with her right away.
At this time, Chu Yuntian took out a piece of jade pendant, it was a superb grade white jade, this white jade was given to him by his mother back then, and it was also the last memorial left to him by his mother, Chu Yuntian dragged the white jade, tears flowed, and he still got up and walked out of the door.
He took the white jade to the pawnshop to pawn, the white jade that was originally worth a thousand taels was pawned by him for eight hundred taels of silver, and when he left, he deliberately told the pawnshop owner not to sell it, he said that one day he would redeem it, but when he got out of the pawnshop, he hugged his head and cried.
After a long time, he wiped his tears and walked towards Yichun Garden.
