Chapter 177: Yellowing Candlelight, Lonely Shadow to Window

It's just that the old bustard looked at the shattered ground, doors and windows, his face was pale, looking at the scene just now, where did General Changhu dare to say anything with that momentum?

If you say a few more words, it will be ruined, so I have to look at the official Pan aggrievedly, and Pan Zhi warned him with his eyes to be cautious at this time, and not to anger a few people in a moment.

So, I had to stand aside and say, "Three guests, do you want to change the table when the wine and food on this table are gone?"

Shen Ye reacted from thinking about Sima Tianzhuo's kung fu and said: "It's already evening, you should rest early, this land cultivation money will be given to you tomorrow." ”

Yan Jiuli glared angrily and said, "Yo, you fool took the lead in making a name for yourself, this will make me have no way to wipe my ass." ”

Shen Ye smiled lightly.

Sima Tianzhuo got 10,000 taels of silver tickets, looked up and down with the silver ticket, flicked his fingers from time to time, and there was a crisp sound on the paper.

Zhiyin said coldly: " Eight years ago, there was a girl in the old bustard, wearing dirty adult clothes, begging all the way to the door of the green building, the girl was really hungry and cold, kneeling at the door for three days and three nights to beg you to take in, the girl did a sweeper three taels of silver a month, a steamed bun per meal, and then because of not enough, pick up some of the leftovers of the guests to eat, but was beaten by three dishwashing ladies in the back kitchen, there is a dishwashing girl named Liang Er, late at night, the dark, the only prawn and the little girl to eat, and later found by three dishwashing girls, she fell on the tree and beat her, Liang Er said, her biggest dream is to eat a plate of prawns, I just want to ask, Liang Er is good now?”

Everyone was surprised when they heard this, and suddenly quieted down, the old bustard was stunned for a moment, he didn't have a deep memory of Zhiyin, who would deliberately pay attention to a little girl begging on the street at that time?

She looked at Zhiyin and seemed to remember that eight years ago, there was a girl who knelt in front of the Qinglou and begged to be taken in.

And then I don't remember anything.

The old bustard wondered, "Are you that girl?"

Zhiyin took off her veil and said with a cold face: "It's me Zhiyin." ”

The Oiran glanced at her, and the Wang girl knocked on her forehead and felt that the eyes were familiar, and when she heard her say this, she suddenly remembered that this little girl's eyes were very similar, the little girl who was cleaning in the restaurant late at night eight years ago.

After cleaning, she carried a wooden bucket to fetch water for the horses, and then climbed up to sleep on the haystacks in the stables, sometimes with a few straws on her clothes and hair.

The little girl didn't seem to like to communicate with people, and she didn't say hello to her, but just looked at her casually as she worked.

It's just that at that time, she was dark and small, very inconspicuous, and she would never have thought that she would be so beautiful today.

Miss Wang suddenly smiled and said: "I remember you, eight years ago, you were wearing adult clothes and cleaning here alone late at night, sometimes your hair and clothes were stained with straw, I will remind you two words, no wonder you said that I am about forty years old, I still wonder, now it seems that you must remember me." ”

For these Oiran Zhiyin girls in the courtyard did not communicate with them at that time, and did not even speak, because at that time, I watched these girls show off their flowers and branches, cotton clothes and satin, and felt very noble, compared to myself at that time, they were phoenixes in the sky, and they were local chickens on the ground, not people in the world.

Therefore, I felt inferior in front of them and did not dare to speak, but silently wrote down their names and appearances.

At this time, Zhiyin just nodded indifferently.

The old bustard regretted it, if he knew the girl's identity today, she would be on an equal footing with the imperial court general and the princess Nanyan, eat the same table of dishes, and drink a glass of water together, she should have been entertained at the beginning, and she could only blame herself for being blind.

I didn't know if Miss Zhiyin said that she was not, and offended several officials, so she hurriedly laughed and said, "If the girl misses Liang'er, I'll call her up?"

Zhiyin was happy in her heart, as long as Liang'er was alive, at least we could eat prawns together from today onwards, but her face did not change and said coldly: "Compared to Liang'er, I still miss the three dishwashing ladies who beat me to a bruise." ”

The old bustard understood what Miss Zhiyin meant and hurriedly said, "Understood, understood, I will invite you to come up, that Miss Wang, you can go to the back kitchen to have a look?"

Miss Wang said yes, hurriedly walked out, went around to the back garden, followed the path through the toilet, and walked to the left to the kitchen.

In the dim candlelight of the kitchen, a girl was wiping her wet hands from the dishes, and then she picked up a broom and swept the wet floor, spreading a mat and a coarse cloth.

She was going to sleep in the damp little kitchen tonight, and the large scar on her face looked a little scary, but she was smiling, sitting in front of the bronze mirror, and gently combing her thick black hair with a wooden comb.

Yellowed candlelight, lone shadow to the window.

Miss Wang leaned on the door and looked at it for a long time, she couldn't help but feel a little distressed, Liang Er felt that there was someone behind her, and hurriedly put away the wooden comb and bronze mirror and turned her head to look at Miss Wang, she was stunned, and she didn't react at once, Miss Wang was dressed brightly, how could she say that a person who was separated from her by a world suddenly came?

Liang Er lowered her head, perhaps to cover the scar on her face, a little stunned, this Wang girl came to the kitchen for the first time, she was not hungry, so she resignedly: "Miss Wang, there is nothing to eat in the kitchen." ”

Miss Wang smiled and said, "Liang'er, are you sleeping here?" Why are you alone with the other three aunts?"

Liang Er nodded slightly, not daring to look at her.

Miss Wang rolled her eyes and said, "Didn't the old bustard arrange your accommodation? How can you sleep on this damp ground, not to mention that it's cold now? Why don't you go to your own room to live? And why do you wash the dishes and clean up alone?"

Liang Er bowed her head and remained silent, she didn't dare to say, the three eldest ladies occupied her room and sold chickens privately, she didn't dare to say, the three eldest ladies went back to rest as soon as the sun set, and thousands of dishes and chopsticks were left for themselves to wash, and they had to wash until late at night every night to sleep, but today somehow, this bowl and chopsticks are less than usual, and they have been washed the least once in a few years.

Just because everything is said, the three eldest ladies will tie themselves up and beat them severely, and they will be in pain for many months.

The smart girl Wang saw a little fame, nodded and said, "Yes, those three aunts bullied you again, right?"

Liang Er shook her head timidly, Miss Wang walked in, grabbed Liang Er's rough and piercing hands, this Liang Er is more than ten years younger than herself, but this hand is so stinging, she looked down at the hands full of calluses, and said with some pity: "Go, Liang Er didn't expect you to be so bitter, we have neglected the back kitchen all these years, go, I will take you to find the three aunts." ”

Liang Er hurriedly retracted his hand, looked at Miss Wang timidly, and smiled reluctantly: "Thank you, Miss Wang, it's actually nothing." ”
