There are two women standing in the southeast corner of the West Market, surrounded by silk houses, silk lines, and dyed valerian rooms....

One of the women was wearing a cyan water skirt and a white undergarment, and the other maid was dressed beautifully.

"Miss, the money shopkeeper said that it was not sold, and it will probably wait a few more days." The maid said.

"Wait a few more days? A few days ago, I told the landlord that I would pay the rent today, how is this good? The young lady said, hearing the maid say that the painting valerian was not sold, and she couldn't help but be disappointed.

Life is so hard.

I originally thought that with a pair of skillful hands, I would gain a foothold in Chang'an City, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult. At this time, the young lady only wanted to get the money to pay the rent, and did not take into account that she had not eaten for the day today.

The maid asked, "Why don't you go and talk to the shopkeeper and see if you can owe some money on credit first?" ”

It seems that this is the only way to go.

After the maid left, the young lady stood alone by the wall of a large silk shop. Just then, a man walked slowly over. "Baguio, why are you doing this? Although the Chen family is not a famous family, Chen Gongzi's father is the current prime minister, and the saint is in power. Why should you refuse this business? ”

When Baguio saw the visitor, he smiled bitterly in his heart. I knew for a long time that I couldn't escape from the eyes and ears of the family, but I didn't expect to find it so soon. The person who came was Baguio's second brother Wang Shouyi. Baguio is the eldest sister of the Jingzhao Wang family, the fourth daughter of the long house, and the current queen is the eldest sister of Baguio. Last month, the third son of Prime Minister Chen's mansion came to propose marriage, but he didn't expect his parents to agree to this family affair. Baguio has no impression of the third son of the Chen family, but he has heard a little about Prime Minister Chen. How much better can a son be with a father like this? Baguio looked down on this Chen Cheng Prime Minister from the bottom of his heart. If you say this to others, you will be amazed. Chen Jiasong and his younger brother Chen Jiayou lived side by side in the court, and the Chen family was famous for a while, but he didn't expect Baguio to look down on this prime minister in the court.

In fact, Chen Jiasong seems to be okay on the surface, and he is not a big traitor. It's just that some things happened to be known by Baguio. Once, Baguio saw Chen Jiasong kneeling down for his brother Wang Shouyi, flattering to the extreme. Although the Wang family is a big family, there is no reason for the prince of the Wang family to let the prime minister of the dynasty kneel, even if Wang Shouyi's sister is the queen of the dynasty. Since then, Baguio has heard a lot of rumors about Chen Chengxiang in the market. It is said that this prime minister is ruthless and flattering to his superiors. is the prime minister, which is really the misfortune of Datang.

Baguio didn't agree to this family business, but there was actually another reason.

It is said that the third son of the Chen family originally asked the third miss of the Lu family of Fan Yang to propose, but when the third miss of the Lu family heard that it was the Chen family who came to propose marriage, she immediately replied: "Fan Yang Lu is no matter how down, and it is not a cat or dog who can come to the door to propose." The Chen family lost face and did not dare to retaliate. The Fanyang Lu family is a famous family with a history of hundreds of thousands of years. Each dynasty has the sons of handsome people. Speaking of this dynasty alone, there is Lu Zhaolin, one of the four major families. It was precisely because Lu Zhaolin was frustrated in officialdom and finally committed suicide by throwing himself into the water that the Lu family was ashamed. Since Lu Zhaolin, no one from the Lu family has participated in the imperial examination held by the imperial court.

Therefore, in the past hundred years, the reputation of the Lu family has not been obvious, and it has declined.

Despite this, the Lu family is one of the five surnames, and it is still not something that the Chen family can deal with. The five surnames are in the same breath and intermarry with each other. Although the Lu family is now in decline, the other families are unshakable wealthy families.

In this way, the third son of the Chen family came to propose marriage, and Baguio was even more aggrieved. I touched a nail in the Lu family and came to the Wang family to pick up persimmons, how can there be such a good thing in the world. Unfortunately, the parents have agreed to this family business. The words of the matchmaker, the life of the parents. However, Baguio had to sneak out and rent a room in Huaihuafang. The maid did not abandon the spring water and escaped with Baguio. Soon after he escaped, he ran out of money. In desperation, Baguio had no choice but to become a female worker, make a painting valerian, and sell it.

Baguio has been fond of female workers since childhood, especially good at painting, dyeing and weaving. Since he ran away from home, in order to make a living, he had to buy silk cloth and dyes, paint them on silk cloth, and then add inconspicuous things such as walnut skin and green onion skin to the dye to make a painting valerian. The Baguio painting is excellent, and the color of the painting valerian dyed by the secret method is bright and beautiful, and it is very popular in the market, and it can be sold in four or five days. It's just that a painting of Valerian takes ten days of hard work to make, and the silver taels obtained are not enough to maintain living expenses. The previous painting was only sent for three days, and the rent had to be paid. The master and servant came to see if the painting was sold.

When the maid came back from Chunshui, she saw the second son, Wang Shouyi, and said nervously: "Miss, you run quickly." The slave maid stopped the second son. ”

Baguio smiled bitterly, where to run? The world is so big, how can there be a place?

"Chunshui, what does the money shopkeeper say, can you get the money on credit?"

Chunshui saw that Miss didn't move, and understood Miss's mind. immediately walked to the young lady's side and stared at Wang Shouyi. "Miss, the money shopkeeper owes five hundred wen on credit. Although Grandma's rent is not enough, a temporary payment of part of it can be relieved for a few days. ”

"Fourth sister, go home with my brother, and my brother will persuade my parents to change their minds when I go back." Wang Shouyi.

Baguio shook his head, and at this moment he saw a son walking over with a few servants, and said with a smile as he walked: "This is the daughter-in-law of this son who has not passed the door?" ”

Wang Shou was taken aback when he saw the arrival, and hurriedly stopped in front of Baguio. "Chen Gongzi, what do you want to do?"

"What to do? Of course, it was to welcome my wife home. ”

"Who's your lady, phew." Baguio took a sip and spit on Chen Gongzi.

Chen Gongzi was not angry but happy, "Oh, it's so powerful before you pass the door, give it to Ben Gongzi and snatch people back." ”

Baguio was disgusted.

Hearing the other party's words, Wang Shouyi stopped in front of Baguio, seeing that the other party was overwhelmed, and he was not an opponent.

"Baguio, run." Wang Shouyi couldn't resist.

Baguio and Chunshui chose the road and fled north, and there was an official city office in the center of the west market. Baguio paused for a moment, then continued to flee north through the city office. Not far behind him, the four evil servants of the Chen family followed closely. The people of Xishi saw a girl running in front, and several people behind them were following and got out of the way.

Baguio ran and suddenly crashed into someone's arms. I didn't have time to take a closer look, but I felt that the person who was hit was holding strange things, and more than a dozen things that looked like long melons were scattered all over the ground. The pursuers stepped forward to catch Baguio, but Chunshui shouted beside him: "Miss, be careful!" ”

At this time, the person who was hit moved, and all the pursuers were knocked down with several punches in a row, and the person who was hit was distressed and picked up the "long melon" that fell to the ground, obviously very regretful.

Baguio stood up and saluted: "Thank you for the rescue." When I looked up, I saw a man and a woman, with a man's face and a tall figure. The woman was surprised when she saw the man's move, a boy in her hand, with a delicate appearance, and Baguio was shocked at first glance. Is there such a good-looking woman in the world?

Robbing people's daughters in broad daylight? This kind of thing is often encountered in TV dramas, but I didn't expect to be bumped into by Guo Li, and I was about to stop someone who suddenly crashed into my arms. Seeing the evil servant chasing him, Guo Li did not hesitate to come to the rescue.

Princess Wan'an, expressionless.
