Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Boling Cui Clan
"Sister, did you say that we came to Chang'an by mistake this time? Why don't people here seem to know us anymore? As soon as they saw that we had no money, they turned their faces and didn't recognize people, and we used to give them silver constantly, and we don't know how much silver we loosened every year, and the result? ”
The man complained and kept venting his inner depression, and he saw in his heart what the world is called hot and cold, what is called looking for you to do things if you have money, and if you don't have money, you will die, and you will not fall into the well, you are already worthy of you, and you still want us to help, you are still too young.
"Brother, you speak quietly, don't let those people hear, otherwise we will be even more hopeless, but our family is waiting for the good news of the two of us going back? Will this cause trouble for the family? This is not our Boling, and we can't talk nonsense in the future. ”
The woman who looked like a good woman next to her reprimanded the man next to her, her demeanor was cautious, and from time to time she looked around to see if there were any suspicious people around, and found that the people around her did not pay attention to the two of them, after all, the clothes of the two of them were similar to the people around them, if you want to say that it is different, it is that the two of them are a little embarrassed, they look tired, and the man is even more resentful.
Wearing clothes bought in Chang'an not long ago, neither of them had time to tidy up their faces, haggard faces, dim red and swollen eyes, you can see the black when you look closely, it should be that they didn't sleep well last night, the two rushed to Chang'an from Boling, non-stop, hoping to find a backer in Chang'an to solve their troubles.
Things are always so unexpected, I have been in Chang'an for a few days, not to mention looking for someone to help, those dignitaries in the past, friends of my father in the past, after hearing about his father's accident, either closed the door to thank the guests, or shirked everything, and casually found a reason to drive them out.
Today, they found one of their father's best friends, who had been friends with their father for more than ten years, and who treated them well, but this person's heart was not enough, and his official position was even lower than his father's, and he could not solve the problem.
They came out of disappointment, although this uncle warmly welcomed them, they didn't have the heart to eat, drink and have fun, these days are tiring, busy, but there is no good news, my father is still in prison, I heard that a few days ago has been pressed to the Dali Temple prison, want to go in to have a look, can't find a relationship, few people are willing to help them.
"Sister, you don't have to be so careful, those people took our money, but they didn't help us, a group of white-eyed wolves, I don't believe they can still deal with the two of us, sister, don't pull me, I won't scold me today, I'm unwilling." The man is not as good-tempered as the woman around him, and he feels that there is nothing when he suffers, but his sister is not able to suffer.
Bullying a weak woman like his sister, right? Be careful of Lao Tzu's fists, he has long wanted to wave his fists and beat those who eat rice, and when he collects cash on weekdays, he pats his chest and says that he has something to find them, and the result? Something to find them, they disappear faster than you.
"Brother, don't be impulsive, my father is still in prison, what if you also make trouble and leave my sister alone? You don't think about your father, you have to think about your grandmother, your grandmother can't bear the blow anymore, your cousin's incident, your grandmother is sad enough, she has been sick for several days, and now your father has been framed, and your grandmother's body is even weaker, if you have another accident, what will you do with your grandmother? ”
"Brother, you should be sensible, you are no longer the child who didn't need to take care of anything and didn't have to think about anything, you have grown up, you can't be so reckless anymore, our Cui family depends on you, you can't joke with so many lives of our Cui family, understand?"
The woman sincerely taught the man next to her, although the man was a head taller than the woman, in front of him, he was reprimanded and stunned, he didn't dare to refute, nodded obediently, pouted and stopped saying those angry words, the woman saw her brother like this, and sighed: "Brother, don't blame my sister for talking seriously, my sister doesn't want to, you don't just take it to heart." ”
"I understand, sister, you're right, I've grown up, I'm no longer a child, every word I say is responsible for the hundreds of lives of our Cui family, in the past, my younger brother was wrong, Lu Man, in the past, I hope my sister will teach my younger brother a lot, don't let my younger brother be impulsive and reckless." The man was humbly taught, and he seemed to understand whether he understood or not.
The woman finally showed a smile on her face, nodded, and said happily: "Brother, you are sensible and have grown up." ”
The man stood aside, very relieved in his heart, his sister finally laughed, he couldn't bear to watch his sister resist all the pressure on himself, she was just a woman, a weak woman who wanted to be protected, this kind of thing, should be borne by him, because he was not sensible, did not grow up, let his sister support alone, thinking of this, his heart was full of guilt.
My sister did this for my own good.
"Sister, they won't help us, should we go back first, slowly figure out a way, it's not a problem to stand here, or let's go see my cousin? I heard that my cousin is doing well in Chang'an, aren't we? ”
The man looked at the crowded street, and continued to stand here, it was not a way, so he proposed to go and see his cousin who had not seen him for a long time, and I heard that the person my cousin married died again, this is already the third, and every time I encounter some bad things, and now I live alone on Chang'an Street, and I don't know if she is okay?
From their father and grandmother, what they heard the most was that their cousin was having a bad time, how was it bad, they were full of worries in their hearts, kind cousin, how could they encounter that kind of thing, they came to Chang'an, and they didn't look twice, and they were a little unhappy.
The woman nodded, there was no way for her to wait for others, so she went to see her cousin by the way, and it was good to see her cousin.
"Then let's go now, sister, do you know where my cousin lives?" As soon as the man lifted his footsteps, he remembered that he didn't know where his cousin lived, and quickly asked the woman next to him, and the woman nodded and said, "Father told me before, I have some impressions, I shouldn't be mistaken, it's around here." ”
"Alright, let's go find my cousin." The man was a little excited in his heart, temporarily dispelled the depression in his heart, and tried to make his sister happy, but his sister's face was still so pale, his expression darkened, he stopped shouting, and kept walking forward.
After walking for less than a quarter of an hour, they came to a mansion, a relatively simple mansion, from the outside, it was not very big, not very brilliant, looking at it and feeling that it was not as big as their own home, the two of them looked even darker, and from the appearance they could probably guess what it would be like inside.
The two stepped forward and knocked on the door, snapped and pulled the knocker of the door, slammed on the door, the sound echoed in the ears, and soon, a person came out of it, opened the door, Qing'er's small head came out of it, and said happily: "Who is it?" ”
When she opened her eyes, she thought it was Li Zhou from two people she didn't know? At the door of her house, not many people came to knock on the door, except for His Royal Highness Li Zhou, who came every few days, mixed his face, and when the knock sounded, almost all of them were Li Zhou, thinking that this time it was also Li Zhou, and came out to greet him with a happy smile, but he didn't expect it to be two people he didn't know.
"Who are you?"
I don't know, I haven't seen it, her young lady seems to have a connection with these people? Man, the woman showed a kind smile, the man wanted to ask out loud, but was stopped by the woman next to him, retreated behind the woman, the woman stepped forward and asked softly: "Dare to ask this girl, this is Cao Mansion?" ”
"Don't you see that plaque? Don't know how to read? Ke'er pointed to the big plaque hanging on the door, with the word 'Caofu' written on it, in big font, his eyes looked at the two of them with a smile, the man's face turned red, he was ridiculed like this, and the suppressed anger in his heart suddenly burst out, pointing at Qing'er and preparing to make a move, but was glared back by the woman.
The woman was not angry, and said with a faint smile: "We know words, girl, we want to ask if the owner here is called Cao Wanrong." ”
Qing'er's eyes rolled a few points, her body retracted, and warned the two of them, as long as they came to find fault, she immediately closed the door, and after her body retracted, Qing'er said angrily: "Yes, this is the name of my young lady, I don't know who you are?" ”
The two didn't expect the little girl to look vigilant, and her body shrank inside, as if they said a word, the door would be closed immediately, and the woman quickly explained: "Little girl, don't be so vigilant about us, we are not bad people, we are a relative of your young lady, my surname is Cui, Boling Cui Mingzhu, this is the younger brother, Cui Guanzhi, if the girl doesn't believe it, you can ask your young lady ......." ”
"Smack."
The portal has been closed, there is no sound, Cui Mingzhu looked at the tentacle portal, his hand has been stretched out, he doesn't know whether to put it down or not, it is very embarrassing.
The man Cui Guanzhi looked at his sister Cui Mingzhu suspiciously, and asked, "Sister, is my appearance too terrifying?" Scared her? Otherwise, how could she ....... ”
Cui Mingzhu shook her head, looking confused: "I don't know, this little girl has been warning us since the moment she went out, not letting us take half a step forward, I think she will have news soon, let's wait." ”
"Listen to my sister, but, sister, do you think cousin will she forget us?"
"Nonsense, don't you know that your cousin loves you the most? I think when you made a mistake, it was your cousin who interceded for you, which time was not? ”
The woman glanced back at the man, Cui Guanzhi touched his nose in embarrassment, and said nostalgically: "Yes, at that time, I was so happy." ”
