Chapter 570: Help
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Haitang hurriedly apologized, and helped the other party pick up the apples scattered on the ground and put them in the basket.
The woman kept her head down, didn't say a word, didn't look at the begonia, and flicked the basket with her hand, and was about to leave.
Haitang was a little reluctant to go, the country sister-in-law was simple, she knocked over her things, but she didn't have a word of reproach, thinking that the apples just fell to the ground, the appearance must be bad, and she might not be able to sell them, so she said: "Sister-in-law, I'll buy you two catties of fruit." ”
"No, no, it's for a relative." The woman seemed to be a little nervous, and when she said this, she hurriedly turned around, and who knew that she was too anxious, and the flat pole touched a tree with a crooked neck next to her, and the basket was crooked, and the apple fell all over the ground again, and she was so anxious that her head was sweating, and she leaned down to pick it up, but she was in a hurry, and forgot to put it in the basket when she picked it up, so she picked it up one and dropped the other, which was extremely clumsy.
And Begonia only looked at the woman in a daze, and from the first word the woman spoke, she recognized the voice, which is also a special ability of hers, others are unforgettable, she is never forget, as long as she hears this person's voice once, she can remember.
"Master." Begonia screamed in disbelief.
The woman was struck by lightning, and slowly raised her head, her face was sallow and a little haggard, but the outline was vaguely recognizable, it was the person Haitang was familiar with, General Shao's wife, whose previous name was Du Juan.
"You, you've mistaken someone." The cuckoo said this in a panic, and then he didn't even want a basket. Turned around and ran, only ran two steps, and immediately reacted, and his current behavior was tantamount to three hundred taels of silver here. She knew that she couldn't deny it, so she hurriedly pulled Begonia aside and said, "Begonia, you must not tell me about meeting me." ”
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Haitang looked at the cuckoo dressed as a peasant woman and asked with concern, "Do you know that almost everyone in the city is looking for you?" ”
"I ...... I have my troubles. The cuckoo hurriedly handed something to Begonia's hand. Begonia. There are only so many of them now, and you must not tell me what happened to me, or I will die. ”
Begonia only felt that the things in her hand were heavy and cold, and she didn't need to look at it. I knew it was a gold ingot. About four or five taels. She hurriedly excused herself, "Master, I can't ask for it." Not really. ”
"Begonia, I only have so much now, as long as you don't tell me what happened to me, I will repay you in the future." The cuckoo was almost pleading.
"I'm not going to say it, but I can't ask for this money." Begonia hurriedly stuffed the gold ingot back to the cuckoo.
The cuckoo naturally refused to accept it, so he pulled it a few times, and there were already people looking curiously at the mouth of the alley next to him.
Or Haitang reacted first, squatted down and picked up the apples that rolled to the ground, and said: "Master, pick up the fruits on the ground first, so as not to arouse suspicion,"
"Oh." The cuckoo obviously knew that this matter should not be too ostentatious, and also squatted down to pick up the apple.
After putting away the fruits on the ground, Begonia pulled the cuckoo aside and said with concern: "Master, why do you look like this?" Did you encounter any difficulties? ”
The cuckoo sighed, "Begonia, don't ask, I have my troubles, but it's you, looking at your appearance, you should also be good, right?" ”
Haitang nodded: "Sort of, I'm working in a tea house now, and I don't serve people anymore." ”
"That's good." Cuckoo was a little relieved, "Congratulations." ”
Haitang said: "It's just a temporary place to live, master, why are you like this." ”
The cuckoo looked a little hesitant, as if he was struggling with whether to tell Begonia or not.
Haitang said again: "Master, looking at your current appearance, you should have encountered a difficulty, since you have encountered it, you can tell me, maybe I can help?" Believe me, I'm not going to say it. ”
Cuckoo thinks about it, now there is no question of whether to believe it or not, if Begonia can't believe it, since she has seen herself, how can she say it, if she can believe it, maybe she can really help a little, she is indeed a little desperate now, and said in a low voice: "This place is not the place to talk, come with me first." ”
So the cuckoo took the begonia, passed through several small alleys, and came to an inconspicuous house, which was very small, and there were several families living in it. ”
The cuckoo responded one by one.
Begonia looked at the cuckoo and these neighbors, and couldn't help but wonder, it seems that the cuckoo has lived here for a long time.
After the cuckoo took the begonia into the house, he put down the basket and said: "I have been living here for more than a month, and they are all ordinary people, and they are very enthusiastic. ”
"Master, what are you ......" Haitang once again asked the doubts in her heart, how could she live in such a place, it seems, she still sells fruits on the street.
Du Juan smiled: "Sometimes in order to hide his identity, the government has to find this place, but who would suspect that a person who sells fruit all day long?" ”
Haitang thinks about it, but he is afraid that the official will face to face with the cuckoo, and he will not think that the person who sells fruit on the street is the person they are looking for, which is much safer than not going out behind closed doors.
"Master, why are you hiding here? I mean, if that's the case, why not leave? Begonia was a little puzzled, since she wanted to hide, why didn't she just hide out of the city? Although this kind of disguise is ingenious, but after all, it is still in Yancheng, and it is difficult to meet acquaintances again that day, such a disguise is actually difficult to deceive people close to them.
The cuckoo sighed, "You think I don't want to go, I really can't go, the city gate is very tightly guarded, the soldiers guarding the city search the people who pass by all the year round, the eyes are very poisonous, it is difficult to deceive them, originally I picked up my person sent the child out first, said that he came back to pick me up, but I don't know what the reason, I couldn't come back, I am very worried about the child now, but there is no way, I can't leave at all." ”
Begonia also felt sorry for the master immediately.
The person who was envied by everyone before is now hiding in such a place. It's really a man-made, or a tribulation deliberately caused by God.
The cuckoo paused for a moment, and then asked, "Don't talk about me, Begonia, you seem to be doing well now, are you planning to start a family?" ”
The cuckoo saw that the begonia was still dressed as a girl, so she asked casually.
This question made Haitang can't help but bow his head, "No, someone like me." How dare you hope to have your blessings. Can you find a good person to marry? ”
"Life is lived by people, how can there be any blessing and no blessing." The cuckoo sighed, "It depends on the individual whether the fate is good or not, and no one can live smoothly all the time." ”
Begonia agrees. To talk about this fate. There are always a lot of tribulations to give.
The cuckoo then asked about the begonia's current situation. For example, which tea house does Begonia work in, how did she get to the tea house, and so on.
Begonia has nothing to hide, and 1510 told everything about his own experience.
The cuckoo heard that Begonia was a singer in Dingwang's Mansion earlier. came out recently, but the princess was kind, knowing that she made good tea, and when she arranged for her to work in the tea house, her eyes couldn't help but flash.
After a deep sigh, the cuckoo said: "Begonia, you just said that if you encounter difficulties, you are willing to help, there is a matter that needs your help right now, I don't know if you are willing...... It's very simple, but I don't know what I'm in now, if you get involved in this matter, you may also be in big trouble, you have to think clearly, don't be rash. ”
"I won't...... I mean, I'm not afraid of trouble. Haitang sighed a little, "I'm like this now, there's nothing to be afraid of, I'm alone, I won't be tired of anyone, I still remember the first time I entered the song and dance studio, I was so scared that I cried all day long, if it wasn't for the master's careful care and comfort, I was afraid that I would not have been able to survive the most difficult years." ”
When it came to the days of the song and dance workshop, Du Juan felt a little guilty in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "But later, I just left, I had the ability to take you with me, and I didn't think of you after that, do you blame me?" ”
"Not to blame." Haitang shook his head and said with a smile, "The hard-working people who have fallen into that kind of place, so many sisters, who can take care of anyone for a lifetime?" This life still has to be earned by yourself, there are peach blossoms in the song and dance workshop, phoenixes, etc., you can't take them all away, master, I understand, now I want to help you, but I am sincere, you give me a chance to repay it. ”
The cuckoo sighed again, and then said: "What I want you to help is actually very simple, that is, to meet someone and help spread a few words, I am like this now, it is very difficult to get out of the city by myself, but I can't rest assured that my child, the person who should have come to pick me up has no news, I am really worried, if not, I don't want to drag you into my matter." ”
"Master, tell me about it." Haitang said sincerely, "I will definitely do it." ”
Du Juan paused for a moment and lowered his voice: "You said that you came out of the Dingwang Mansion soon, so you must be able to find a way to meet Princess Ding?" You can send me a message to the princess and see if she is willing to help me. ”
"Master, do you know Princess Ding?" Begonia was a little surprised.
"I've had a few encounters." Du Juan said vaguely, "If anyone has the ability to help me now, it may be the princess." ”
"But the princess Ding's ......" Haitang didn't know how to say, remembering that Princess Ding had asked her in detail about Du Juan's past in the song and dance workshop, she couldn't stand the princess's threats and temptations, so she said it, I don't know if this matter has any impact on the master, should I tell the master?
"The princess is actually a kind-hearted person, she will definitely help me, even if she doesn't help, she won't say it." The cuckoo looks very confident in this.
Haitang's frank words can't be spoken, think about it or don't say it, so as not to increase the trouble of the master, and think about the princess who asked the master at the beginning, maybe she also wanted to help.
In this way, Begonia agreed, and the cuckoo specially told her not to let others know about it, even if it was someone close to the princess, she could only say it to the princess alone.
Begonia promised to come down.
Back to the tea house, it was late, it was not good to prepare, after thinking about it, at noon the next day, she went to the Dingwang Mansion.
This excuse is still ready-made, the business of the tea house is not good, and she is about to collapse, so she asked the original housekeeper mother Zheng Niangzi to talk about it, and spread a word, wanting to see the princess.
Mrs. Zheng was very embarrassed, and said to Haitang: "Miss Begonia, it's not that I don't help, it's just that the princess is so identical, it's not a big deal for you, the business of the tea house is a little worse, and you don't say that you will fall, you want to see the princess like this, some can't be justified, right?" ”
"Mrs. Zheng, how is this a trivial matter?" Haitang looked anxious, "This tea house is my shelter, now the tea house can't be opened, it can't be opened, the shopkeeper of the tea house is secretly making other plans, I really have to wait for the tea house to fall, then can I still go back to live in the palace?" ”
"This ......" Mrs. Zheng couldn't say it, she said it well, but she also said it according to Luteng's instructions, who can guarantee it for a lifetime.
Haitang begged: "Zheng Niangzi, you can help me talk to the princess, pass on a word, please." ”
Haitang said, and quietly handed Zheng Niangzi a piece of broken silver.
Zheng Niangzi was short-handed, thinking that it was just a word, and it was the princess's business to see it, so she said: "Okay, Miss Begonia, I'll say okay first, I can't see the princess directly, I can only talk to the green vine girl in front of the princess, if the green vine girl doesn't help, or the princess doesn't see you, I can't either, you just go back for the time being, after a few days, the tea house really can't be opened." ”
"Then thank you Mrs. Zheng." Begonia looked grateful.
"It's done." Mrs. Zheng didn't dare to pack the ticket, so she turned around and went into the inner courtyard.
Seeing the green vine, Zheng Niangzi said: "Green vine girl, that begonia wants to ask to see the princess." ”
Green Vine frowned: "What can she do?" The princess is not something that can be seen by saying something. ”
Zheng Niangzi said with a smile: "I also told her that, but she said that the business of the tea house is not good, and she is a little worried when she sees that it can't be opened, so she ...... Otherwise, Green Vine Girl, I'll send her away. ”
"It's just that the fourth wife's tea house is not doing well, and it's not to the point of collapse, right?" Green Vine was a little impatient.
"That's what I said to Begonia." Zheng Niangzi said, "But she is worried, she has to see the princess and disturb the girl, I'm really sorry, I'll send her away." ”
"Wait......" Green Vine called Mrs. Zheng, "I'm going to meet the princess now, see what the princess has to say, even if this begonia is lucky, maybe the princess is willing to meet her." ”
Green vine thought, since he already knows about this, it's not easy to hide it, lest something really happen and can't be explained, so he can reply to the princess, whether he can see Begonia or not, it depends on the princess's mood...... (To be continued......)
