Chapter 315: Willing and Unwilling
Bai Ran's life experience, not very bizarre, but also twists and turns, his grandfather was a high-ranking official, grew up in brocade clothes and jade food as a child, but after the death of his biological mother, he was treated by his stepmother, and there was hard work at a young age, and then his grandfather Bai Wei delayed the military plane in the Northwest Town two years ago, angered Long Yan, the family was convicted, died, and was a slave, he was sent to the house for a year, and now it has been a year.
After a cup of tea, Yu Shu listened attentively, some sighed, and sighed, and knew where Xue Rui said "interesting", thinking about these sons in distress, everyone has a story to tell, this real story sounds more interesting than the teahouse storyteller made up those fake dramas.
"After the end of the child, there is nothing to talk about." After Bai Ran finished telling his story, his face turned gloomy, he retreated to the desk on the side, and continued to write poems, but he didn't know where to fly for a long time.
Yu Shu turned his head to look at Xue Rui, and Xue Rui commented: "Bai Wei was born in Wuju, and he was also a wolf general in the DPRK back then, but he was overconfident and insisted on going his own way, so careless that two years ago, I was defeated in a battle with Warat in Wangcheng, and the crime is unforgivable, so as to harm the children and grandchildren."
Yu Shuxiang thought that the Da'an Dynasty was rich and strong, and this was the first time he heard about the surrounding wars, and he knew that the world was not completely peaceful.
"The whole country should not start a war, winning or losing is the will of God, so why blame it." Shui Yun came out coldly, there was a lot of disrespect in her words, it was said that the people who raised the army should be blamed for the defeat that day, didn't that mean the emperor, which caused a room of people to turn their heads and look at it, showing surprise, but she was calm, as if she didn't know that her words were amazing, and at the same time, her face remained unchanged and Jingchen who had not spoken much.
"Hehe, the water girl is a person in the Daomen, so she is naturally weak and indisputable, let's not care about state affairs, and then listen to the life experiences of the rest of them." Xue Rui smiled and diverted the topic, which also made the outsiders retract a little surprise. The face is clear.
Yu Shu touched her chin, quietly glanced at Shui Yun twice, and met twice, she didn't know much about this little sister of the Heavenly Master, but just those two sentences just now, maybe she was a straightforward person.
Next, the remaining three boys each told a personal experience, but none of Bai Ran's tone was euphemistic. Yu Shu compared the words of several people, and always felt that Bai Ran was a steady winner, and he had a good temperament, a good image, and her eyes, so these people really took it back, not to say that it was for Yu Xiaoxiu to be a scholar. When the Master taught him to read and write, he had to make it.
But it was too good that Yu Shu felt that something was wrong, tilted his body, and asked Xue Rui in a low voice: "Big brother."
"What's wrong?" Xue Rui tilted his ears and listened to her whisper closer.
"In my opinion, this courtyard is a frequent guest, with this Bai Ran's appearance, why hasn't anyone taken it away for a year, will there be any problems?" Yu Shu's worries are not unreasonable. After all, she bought someone to accompany Yu Xiaoxiu as a companion, but she didn't want to bring any trouble back.
Xue Rui also had this doubt, this Bai Ran was very well cared for in the hospital, it stands to reason that he should have been picked away a long time ago, and he must have been tired of staying until now, so he thought about it for a while, put aside the tea, called the middle-aged housekeeper to him, and pointed at Bai Ran. Slightly cold face:
"Is this man clean?"
Seeing him straighten his face. The steward hurriedly replied, "Clean, naturally clean." If you are an adult, the villain is terrified, how dare you fool you. Don't tell you, my lord, this person is taken care of by the villain himself, and from February last year to now, he hasn't even left the gate of this courtyard, how can he cause trouble. ā
Xue Rui's face improved, waved his hand to let him step aside, and asked Yu Shu again: "Are you optimistic, which one do you think is suitable?"
Yu Shu was a lot relieved when he heard what the steward said just now, and he didn't ink, so he immediately raised his chin towards Bai Ran, and said, "It's just him, I think he has a temperament, and he should get along with Xiao Xiu."
I've seen a good one, who will pick the second.
The middle-aged steward had already seen that it was not Xue Rui who wanted to buy someone, but he didn't care about anything, after all, in the courtyard, it was the master who came, and if he could afford it, he could get it and leave.
Xue Rui nodded and said to the steward, "Bring his list, as well as the deed of sale."
The steward said happily: "Wait a minute, the villain will go."
Standing at the bottom, that Bai Ran heard their conversation, her beautiful face changed suddenly, she quickly glanced up at Xue Rui, shivered unnoticed, her lips trembled, and she let out a whisper, not high, but let the whole room hear:
"IāI don't want to sell."
Hearing this, Xue Rui and Yu Shu raised the corners of their eyebrows at the same time, and the steward walked to the door, turned his head with an embarrassed face, smiled at Xue Rui first, and said:
"Don't blame me, my lord, this is the first time I see a foreigner, and I am too nervous for a while and lose my sense of proportion. Please sit down for a moment, and I will take him to the back to preach, and then I will bring him over later. ā
As he spoke, he glanced at the little man by the door, and someone stepped forward and "supported" Bai Ran's arm, wanting to take him out of the city, along with the other three teenagers who were not picked.
Yu Shuming saw that among the few submissive faces, Bai Ran, the only one who showed a struggling face, the young man's eyes were full of unwillingness, which made her heart move inexplicably, pondered for a moment, and opened her mouth to stop people:
"Wait a minute, don't hurry, wait for me to ask him a few words."
The person in charge was hindered by Xue Rui, and it was difficult to refuse, so he had to let people stand up and turn around to answer.
"You just said you don't want to sell yourself?" Yu Shu asked bluntly.
Bai Ran stubbornly said: "Yes, Xiaosheng is not, I don't want to go out as a slave, I would rather be locked up in this hospital for the rest of my life."
Yu Shu frowned, she couldn't tell what was a little strange, she vaguely felt that this Bai Ran was unwilling to sell his body, not because he couldn't afford to serve others, but for other reasons.
"Since you enter the courtyard, you will have to be a slave to others sooner or later, you can't help yourself whether you want to or not, why bother to die," Xue Rui probably saw that Yu Shu liked this Bai Ran to be a scholar for Yu Xiaoxiu, and he also cherished talents a little, so he good-natured persuaded Bai Ran:
"My sister-in-law took you back, not for other purposes, she has a brother who is smart and sensible, and is about the same age as you, and she needs a scholar to accompany her. The elders of their house were born in the apricot forest, opened a medical hall to save people, are kind, not rich and noble, but also solid, my righteous sister is a Yike, and there is a future in the past, you go to her house, no matter how good it is, no one else can come, what do you want. ā
Hearing what he said, Bai Ran was stunned, looked at Xue Rui, and then at Yu Shu, his face was in a trance, fleeting, and lowered his head again, and after a while, he looked up and asked Yu Shu:
"Dare to ask Xiugao's name."
Yu Shu stared at him and said, "My surname is Yu, and my single name is Shu, without a word."
Bai Ran's mouth moved, as if he had silently recited Yu Shu's name, and then secretly glanced at Xue Rui, clasped his hands in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice:
"IāI want to be a scholar of the show."
