Chapter Seventy-Two: Xingqing
King Cheng picked up the matter high and put it down gently, Luo Yude's mood was also ups and downs, and he sat on the chair for a while before getting up and knocking on the door next door.
It was the door that the spring court opened, and then under Luo Yu's gaze, the spring court gave him a salute.
Luo Yu wanted to strangle King Cheng in the past now, but all he could do was to help Chunting up and pretend that nothing had happened, "Why should you and I be so separated......"
"Etiquette should not be abolished." Chun Ting said respectfully, "Zhuang Gongzi has already slept, do you sleep next door or do you rest here?" ”
Luo Yu felt bitter in his mouth, glanced into the house, and saw that Zhuang Lu was already asleep, so he flashed into the house, "I sleep here tonight, you go next door, rest early, and you have to hurry tomorrow." ”
Chunting responded softly, and went to the next door, and before leaving, he didn't forget to close the door intimately, and his every move was very decorative. If it was placed in the past, the maids around him were as behaving as Chunting, Luo Yuding would be happy to see it, but now it is not the time when he is in the Qing'an Hou Mansion, he would rather Chunting exceed the rules.
Identity, family, experience, many things, can not be offset by the friendship of sharing adversity. This point, Chun Ting, who is not smart, can carry it clearly, and Luo Yu can see the situation in the world clearly, but he is blinded by this little thing.
The little girl's footsteps were soft, and as soon as the door was closed, she couldn't hear clearly, Luo Yu stood by the door and listened to the door next door open and close, until there was no sound before returning to bed and sleeping in clothes.
Rao made such a fuss last night, and he still had to get up early the next day, and he didn't sleep in the middle of the night before the spring court, and he got up in the morning with a thick color under his eyes. When Chunting combed her hair in the mirror in the morning, she was startled by herself in the mirror, her complexion was pale, and the blue was particularly obvious now.
Sitting on the front, Qiu Zhi saw her like this, and must have counted her first, and then took the shelled egg and put it on her. Now eggs are a luxury, and they can't afford to eat them, let alone use them to cover their faces.
There was no rouge gouache at hand to cover it, so Chunting could only go out with these two big black circles, and even Zhuang Lu, who had always adhered to the principle that his friend's wife could not be bullied, did not want to look at Chunting on weekdays, but he couldn't help but look at Chunting a few more times.
Luo Yu naturally saw it, but felt a little strange, this girl has the biggest heart, she can sleep anywhere, and she can sleep deeply even when she lives on the meadow outside. But as soon as he thought of what happened last night, Luo Yu felt relieved, and even Zhuang Lu woke up a few times in the middle of the night to confirm the situation.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Chunting is insomnia because they are about to run out of money.
In fact, with their current situation, it was the best decision to agree to walk with King Cheng last night, not to mention how the Luo family had nothing to do with Chunting and Zhuang Lu, disagreeing was just Luo Yu's selfishness, and this time it was indeed Luo Yu who dragged them down.
But Luo Yu couldn't tell them the truth, and there were some things he didn't want to involve irrelevant people, such as Chunting, such as Zhuang Lu.
But no money is really a hard injury, even their morning food has been minimized, if it weren't for the two gentlemen still having to hurry, I'm afraid that Chunting would be able to fool each person with a bowl of porridge. Luo Yu bit the hard steamed bun, and only felt that he really shouldn't dislike it.
Seeing that autumn is coming, the weather will be cold in a few days, there are thick clothes in Zhuang Lu's bag, but Luo Yu and Chunting don't, and buying clothes is another expense, Luo Yu can understand this account, and Chunting, who is holding the silver money, can understand it even more.
Chunting leaned in the car and fell asleep, but still thinking about what to do next. If you don't have enough money, you have to shorten the time you can stay in the city. If you don't go into the city, forget it, but if you enter the city, you still sleep on the streets, Chunting can accept it, but what about Luo Yu?
The most important thing is dry food, there is no money to buy dry food, it is useless for them to hurry up, the sufferings they have endured these days, the hardships they have suffered, the struggles they have made to make a living.
But now even ordinary people can see that the world has been chaotic. The price of grain has risen again and again, and there is not much grain left in their hands, she can eat less by herself, and she can't be tired of anything, but Luo Yuhe Zhuanglu can't.
It's too hard, it's too hard to live. The more Chunting thought about it, the more he had a headache, and in the end, he was so anxious that he hit the car board with his head, and he didn't come up with any good way. At that time, she swore that she would take Zhuang Lu, and now she is the one who is worried about the situation in a helpless situation.
Luo Yu heard the movement outside, saw the scene inside through the gap in the curtain, felt a little funny, reached out and knocked on the car board, "What are you doing?" Can't think so? ”
Chunting stopped, crouched on the car version with some embarrassment, and said hesitantly: "Slave maid, slave maid is nothing, please worry about it." ”
Luo Yu was silent, very good, great, life and death in the past three months, but because of the appearance of a king, in less than an hour, this girl instantly pulled the distance between the two back to the same as before, and even more strictly obeyed the etiquette than before.
Luo Yu is almost happy to death.
As King Cheng said, it will take only three days to go south to King Liang's fiefdom, because of the events of that night, Luo Yu originally didn't want to go from Xingqing, but if he wants to bypass it, at least one and a half more months at their current speed, so even if he wants to intercept them at the risk of King Cheng setting up a card here, he can only bite the bullet.
However, the journey was extremely smooth, and even the soldiers at the city gate were kinder than the city beside them. Yes, it's kind, when I entered the city, I just checked the household registration as usual, and after two interrogations, I let the three of them go together.
It was too relaxed, even Chunting was surprised, they passed through more than a dozen cities all the way, and none of them were able to enter the city safely without fighting the soldiers who defended the city, and it can be said that half of the current expenses have to be spent on this.
Luo Yu sat outside and looked extremely calm, obviously not surprised by what had just happened to the other party. Since King Cheng can show his intention to recruit for King Liang to him, the heir who represents the Luo family, it means that King Liang has enough confidence to be the backing of the Luo family and enough confidence to give the Luo family a guarantee.
It's a pity that what the Luo family needs is not protection, but allies. The Luo family to Luo Yu's generation is only the third generation, the foundation is too shallow, and in the eyes of those ambitious people, the Luo family is the best object to strive for, and it is most suitable for them to come to such a noble family. Or maybe it is most appropriate for the Luo family to take such a path, but neither Qing'an Hou nor Luo Yu want to do this.
If the Luo family chooses this path, not to mention whether the one followed by the Luo family can have the last laugh, even if they don't stand in the wrong line in the end, they will just become a dog who watches the monarch's mood and eats.
Luo Yu knew very well what the Luo family wanted, and he also knew very well what his father who stayed in the capital wanted. They want the Luo family to become a deep-rooted Dashi clan like the Su family and the Bai family, so the more chaotic the world is, the more the Luo family should stabilize it, and they can't do it if they take advantage of the fisherman, but they don't want to bite off a piece of meat from this world.
But if you want to fish in troubled waters, you must always have the capital to fish in troubled waters, for example, to live, to go to Shaoling alive, he died, everything the Luo family had done was in vain, how can a family that has no heirs last for a hundred years?
After entering the city, Xingqing once again gave them a surprise.
Chun Ting repeatedly confirmed that after making sure that he had heard correctly, he was about to jump up with joy. The price of grain in Xingqing is the same as when the world is stable, and even lower!
The abacus in Chunting's heart crackled, according to the price of Xingqing's grain, the silver in their hands was enough!
It's a great event.
Zhuang Lu looked at the pile of dry food like a hill in front of him, and couldn't close his mouth in shock.
"Brother...... Miss Fang, this is too much, right? Zhuang Lu asked tentatively.
Chun Ting waved his hand very heroically, "Not much, these are all the dry food we have in the future." "It means that even if they enter the city again in the future, there will be no more supplies, and these things in front of them will support them to walk the rest of the way.
Chunting knows very well that after Xingqing, there will never be a lower price than this, if you don't seize the opportunity now, do you have to wait until you miss it and then regret it?
Anyway, they have cars, so it's easy to take them with them.
Since the dry food is sufficient, the time when you can go into the city to rest in the future will be greatly reduced, but the weather is getting colder and colder, and it is inevitable that you will catch a cold when you rest outside, so you have to allocate some money to buy things to keep warm.
It's only the beginning of October now, Zhuang Lu feels that it's too early to buy now, but Chunting doesn't think so, since he knows that the price of Xingqing is as usual, Chunting will definitely not let it go, and the things that can be purchased in Xingqing will be purchased together, and there is not much money left in his hand, so he should make the most of it.
Luo Yu naturally has no objection to Chunting's decision, he has never experienced it before, Chunting has experienced it, there are some things, Chunting is better than him, which is why he can rest assured that all the money will be handed over to Chunting.
Considering the aspect of keeping out the cold, Chunting even bought fabrics and cotton, and she had to make things such as jackets for winter by herself, and the ready-to-wear shops did not sell them, but the price would definitely be higher, and whether they fit well or not is still two words.
It was rare that Luo Yu wanted to refute once, saying that she hurt her eyes by doing needlework, but she was persuaded back by Chun Tinghe kindly.
She is a maid, but none of these things have happened, and it is also her duty to do needlework for her master. And she has nothing to do in the car every day, doing some needlework is to pass the time, and now it is still far away from the cold winter wax moon, and she can get out by doing some every day, where will it hurt her eyes?
Luo Yu couldn't resist her, so he had to let her go. Thinking about it carefully, it seems that this girl looks respectful and kind, but in fact, everything she wants to do and want is in line with her heart.
So, some things have changed, even if they are covered up with the appearance of docility, but the things underneath are not the same.
Luo Yu figured it out, and he was happy, he was really happy.
