Chapter 638: Panic Three
The woman who caused the quarrel between the husband and wife of the old man slipped away early when no one was paying attention.
She is no longer the delicate woman who used to take the incense car in and out, and after leaving the Du Mansion, she got lost several times before returning to the inn outside the city to rest before curfew.
The proprietress of the inn sat in a corner of the store and counted the accounts, and when she saw her come in, she snorted coldly and lowered her head to continue settling the accounts, but the guy on the side came up with a smile to greet her, "The girl is back, can you have dinner?" Shall I ask the kitchen to bring you some food? What would you like to eat? I'll make the kitchen freshly cooked."
"It's good to have anything, just cheap ones that fill your stomach." The woman's voice was hoarse and rough, and it didn't match her appearance at all.
The man said yes and turned around and went to the kitchen, and the woman turned to go back to the room, not wanting the proprietress to call out to her.
"Girl, our shop is small, I don't owe it, the next time you want to go out, the best is to give the house money first, otherwise I dare not guarantee that when you come back, we will have a vacant room for you to live in."
The woman blushed suddenly, staggered away with a vague answer.
The guy turned out again at some point, "Sister! It's not easy for us to have a guest, don't scare people away! "
"Tsk! Look at you." The proprietress reached out angrily and poked the guy on the forehead. Look, who is that girl? I don't think she's from an ordinary family."
"Ignore her! The family is in the middle of the road, the daughter of the criminal minister, it is possible that she has an extraordinary bearing, and the phoenix is not as good as a chicken, these years, we have not seen a martyred girl with a good family background, and when she comes, no matter how hard her bones are, she can't survive the stomach rebellion! The guy sneered.
The proprietress nodded, "That's right! Didn't you say before that Wan Gongzi wanted to find an outer room with a good family background and good looks? Why haven't I heard you mention it again for so long?"
The guy snorted. Shook the rag in his hand on the table vigorously, "Sensei!" Wan Gongzi hasn't seen anyone since he mentioned it to me last time! Master Hu, they asked me two days ago! said that Wan Gongzi borrowed someone from him a month ago, but as soon as he went, he didn't even give the money of the An family to others, and the family couldn't get by, so they found him to ask for money. How could the tiger master pay this money for him. Just come to me. How did I know that my son-in-law went there with such a large group of people?"
The proprietress shook her head and explained to her younger brother. Don't get involved in Wan Gongzi's affairs when you go back! Tiger Master is not a good stubble." As he spoke, he raised his chin and gestured towards the woman's room, "This is an excellent product, I can't bear to let her go like this."
"Look at her like that. It's not a yellow flower girl, if someone accepts her as an outer room. We can also collect the red envelope of the pen and the thread." The guy reached out and touched his jaw and calculated.
"Okay! However, be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship, and after she moved in, she kept running out. Ming'er still sent someone to keep an eye on her, right?"
The guy nodded, "Got it, I'll ask Xiaomei to go and get close to her in a while. Look at her unfamiliar life, how pitiful! We're kind. Let Xiaomei accompany her, so that she won't get lost." The guy laughed, but the proprietress was not happy.
"You want to ask Xiaomei to accompany her? That girl is stupid, if she doesn't take a good look at people, but is abducted, how can it be good? Besides, if Xiaomei goes along, who will do the family's affairs?"
The guy scratched his head, "Xiaomei looks stupid, or who are you going to let go?" You?" The guy asked rhetorically, and when he saw that the proprietress had changed, he laughed out loud again, "Our inn is all about my sister!" How can I let my sister do this flattering thing? Xiaomei just do it."
Xiaomei is his sister when she was young and ignorant, she was coaxed by a man to do a child in the outer room, but the child just landed, and when she saw that it was a female doll, the man turned his face, it turned out that the man's wife could not give birth to a son, and gave birth to eight daughters in a row, the elders were anxious, if the daughter-in-law's mother's family was not powerful, she would marry another one after a break, but the daughter-in-law's family was an official family, although it was a sesame petty official from the eighth grade, it was better than their business!
The man thought of borrowing the womb to give birth to a child, the mother-in-law was so jealous, she couldn't allow him to take a concubine, she couldn't give birth to a son, and he was not allowed to mess with the woman next to him, the man had long been in love with the daughter of the innkeeper, and the rhetoric coaxed people into their hands, and they conceived a child in a few months.
Who knew that it was a daughter who gave birth.
Xiaomei was born, so her mother was abandoned by her father, and it was strange that her mother could give her a good look!
The proprietress nodded after all and asked Xiaomei to stare at the woman.
The guy found Xiaomei and told her to take the child outside the women's room and ask her to knock on the door.
After a while, the woman came to open the door, and saw that it was a seven- or eight-year-old girl holding a tray, and the tray was freshly made hot food, the woman opened the door and let Xiaomei enter the house.
He stretched out his hand to take the tray, and saw that the bowl on the tray was actually eaten cleanly, and couldn't help but be surprised, this female guest, since she moved in, this is the first time she has eaten so cleanly, so she thought so, and when she looked down, she saw that her niece's small mouth was oily, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
"The girl let you eat?"
"She couldn't eat, and when she heard my stomach growl, she told me to eat."
Xiaomei touched her round belly and bent her eyes with a satisfied smile.
The guy touched her head with some pity, "Okay! Ming'er, you get up early and accompany that girl to play outside! "
"Okay." Xiaomei smiled and nodded, and obediently asked her uncle to take her back to the room to sleep.
In the house, the woman sat alone under the lamp.
She is Chu Mingxin.
The Yang family. [,! The guards tried to kill her, but she was lucky to be rescued, but the rescuers left her in a small town, and although they left her a sum of money, it was useless.
Since she was a child, her mother has taken her with her, teaching her hand in hand, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, needlework, who doesn't say that she is smart and learns quickly? In the feed, the family is even more difficult for her, but she has never learned to start a fire, wash vegetables, cut vegetables, cook rice, and can't do laundry, she doesn't even know where to buy those chickens, ducks and fish, at first, she didn't even know that the rice was cooked with rice.
Before she could figure it out, she was sold by the 'good Samaritan' next door!
Thanks to her extra heart, she put the silver tickets left by those who saved her. Sewn into the clothes, otherwise she is now in the rich guest house.
Thinking of the past few months that were like nightmares, Chu Ming's heart felt sour, why did she suffer from this decay!
was sold to others as a maid, because she was too beautiful, she was bullied, and she had to endure men's hairy hands and feet. I thought I would go home with my master. will be able to live a peaceful life, who knows, because of her appearance, she will be jealous. Not only the maids who are the same as her, who are also waiters, want to arrange her, but even the hostess is afraid of her, and is afraid that the man will take the house.
Chu Ming thought of this. I couldn't help but feel nauseous and wanted to vomit, the man was greedy and lustful. She didn't understand why the group of women was holding him.
If she hadn't made a little trick to let the mistress throw her out of the house and leave her to fend for herself, she wouldn't have escaped from that cage! It's just that...... Thinking that she finally arrived in Guangling. found the Yun family, but was beaten by Chu Mingyue's people, and the scars on his body were dull and painful.
It's a big loss for her life! to escape that fate.
That's why she was able to see it. The man to whom her heart is bound.
It's not that she doesn't want to come to the door and recognize him. But he was surrounded by soldiers from the guard, and she didn't know what happened to him, but she didn't know that with these people around, she didn't have a chance to come forward.
She can only wait for the opportunity to move.
As a result, before she could pack her bags, he disappeared, which made her panic, but fortunately she finally let her find out, and he went to Meizhou.
His eldest brother is a county magistrate in Meizhou, he must be visiting relatives! Just when she was hesitating to chase to Meizhou, it suddenly rumored that his sister-in-law was dead! They're going back to Beijing.
She hurried to the docks, but only saw their boat leave, and she could only chase all the way behind, but they were on a military ship, and the passenger ship she was on could not catch up at all.
What she never expected was that she would get seasick and get off the boat for a few days before she returned to normal.
Unexpectedly, when she rushed to Du Mansion, she saw him escorting Changshao's hometown to Changshao with her brother for burial, is she really so helpless with him? Otherwise, why do you always go by wrong?
Du Yunxun didn't know that someone was chasing him all the way back to the stable from Guangling, he was talking to Captain Xi, who had been commanded by Yao Du to suppress pirates, and also went to the northwest.
Captain Xi had already heard that Wei Qianhu and others were promoted because they had made a lot of contributions to following Du Yunqi to suppress bandits, and Captain Xi and others couldn't help but be envious, and originally wanted to make fun of it, but they thought in time that this trip was to escort Du Yunqi's deceased wife back to their hometown for burial, and their expressions became solemn.
Seeing that Du Yunqimu was stunned, Captain Xi couldn't help but ask a little more curiously, Du Yunxun smiled bitterly, in fact, his brother had recovered from the blow of losing his wife, but he learned the truth about the death of his deceased mother, which made him fall into a low ebb again.
Captain Xi scratched his head, I heard that Du Yunqi's wife, when she was alive, she didn't give her in-laws a lot of trouble, but people die like lights out, and the mistakes he made in the past are not easy to mention again, he is a rough man, he doesn't know what the big truth is, and he doesn't know how to comfort people, so he simply asked people to buy water and wine, and brought the Du family brothers to drink, let's drink! A drunk relieves a thousand sorrows!
Right!
I think that when his childhood sweetheart Yuan died at the beginning, the Tang Du commander didn't say anything, poured him wine for three days, and when he woke up with a hangover, he was a good man again! Hahaha! Since it is effective for him, it should also be effective for Du Yunqi, right?
Probably!
So that night, Du Yunxun watched his eldest brother come without refusing, pouring wine one after another.
"Second Young Master, if you let the eldest young master drink like this again, I'm afraid I'll get drunk for three days and three nights, right?" Mr. Du whispered and Du Yunxun bit his ears.
"Then you're going to stop it?"
"How can the little one stop it!" Manager Du smiled bitterly, and Du Yunxun also smiled bitterly, "I can't stop it!" Let him drink it! If you're drunk, you can sleep, and it won't be a few days before you get to Kishu anyway." (To be continued)
