Chapter 20 This name is not unjust
"Two benefactors, the slave family is barren, only two cups of weak tea to express their hearts......"
After Xun Gang asked Xu Shu to take the woman away, he asked the woman to point out the direction of her home; They don't have that kind of scheming, they don't know that they have been followed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info The woman led the way in a daze, and hazy introduced a big man and a child into the house, feeling ashamed and annoyed, if it was passed out, how could she be innocent?
But these two are her saviors after all, and the so-called reserve and shame only lasted for a moment before disappearing; Moreover, Xun Gang and Xu Shu had no fight, and the woman quickly let down her guard in her heart and chatted with the two.
Xun Gang took the cup, looked at the leaf of tea floating on it like a lonely boat, and smiled bitterly in his heart, it was really weak tea......
But this is also understandable, from the beginning of entering this house, Xun Gang felt that this woman must be a poor person. If the compound I went to before was called broken, then this house was simply rotten. Not to mention the few big holes in the roof, even the beams look like they are about to fall, which is very infiltrating; The floor was simply covered with straw, and the stove in the corner seemed to set the house on fire at any moment.
The house is located in a narrow alley in the southeast corner of Luoyang, and if it weren't for someone to lead the way, who would have found this place?
The woman was sitting on the straw, bowed respectfully, and said a little shyly: "I didn't know He Gongzi before, and I insulted the son's attendants, is it the slave family, the slave family is here to make amends to this eldest brother!" ”
Xun Gang's face did not change, he gently took a sip of the so-called tea, and said with a smile: "Yuan Zhi, are you embarrassed to worry about such things with a girl's family?" ”
Xu Shu laughed and returned the salute to the woman: "The son-in-law doesn't have to care, at the moment of life and death, who cares about angering whom?" It's an honor to be able to save the girl in the next place, don't bring it up again! ”
The woman raised her head, her face flushed with a hint of ruddy, and she didn't know if she was shy; She got up lightly and said lightly: "The slave family is not looking good now, please allow the slave family to trim up for a while, and then come to greet the two." ”
The woman got up slowly, talked moderately, and entered the inner room; The house is not big, only such a place is very solid, and it is very important for girls to come to this room.
After a while, the woman slowly pushed the door out, and as soon as the whole person appeared, Xun Gang and the others were instantly shocked - the previous woman had unkempt hair, disheveled clothes, and mud on her face, and the whole woman looked like a black woman and an ugly woman.
Today's woman gently pulls up her hair and puts her hair up in a bun, although she stands in dilapidation, she has a luxurious beauty. The skirt moved gently on the dirty floor, which was regrettable, and the face was covered with a light fat powder, young and beautiful, very beautiful.
Xun Gang came to the Eastern Han Dynasty for three years, and in addition to his sister Xun Cai, he was shocked when he saw such a beautiful woman. He stood stunned, only hating himself for being three years old and not being able to get a woman's heart.
Xun Gang glanced at Xu Shu and found that the latter was also amazed by the woman's alluring color, and he couldn't help but feel a little envious in his heart, at least he could pursue it normally.
"Two sons, the slave family is safe." The woman walked over lightly and saluted with a smile, "I forgot to introduce myself, the slave Liu, the single name is E, because the maiden family's surname is Dou, and the two are called the slave Dou E." ”
I'll go! Dou! No wonder it's so wronged, and I don't know how the real Dou E feels more than a thousand years later.
"You said you were surnamed Liu?" Xu Shu's observation point was obviously different from Xun Gang's, and he found a loophole in Dou E's words, "Are you a member of the royal family today?" ”
"What this son said is that the slave family is the daughter of Emperor Huan, and the mother is the daughter of the former general Dou Wu." Speaking of this, there seemed to be tears rolling in Dou E's eyes, "After the dynasty was imprisoned by the party, all the Dou family was persecuted, but the mother in the palace was imprisoned in the deep palace to avoid the pain of exile. The slave family was born at that time, and the mother begged a eunuch for the sake of the Dou family's bloodline and brought the slave family out. Some time ago, the eunuch died of illness, and as you know, the dying man had a very messy mouth, and inadvertently told the slave about the family......"
Xun Gang didn't expect that there were so many stories in it, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, this Dou family had infinite scenery back then, but in the end, it ended up like this, and even future generations were terrified.
"Do you still have relatives?" Xun Gang asked again.
Dou E shook her head helplessly, and said slightly: "The people in the family have either passed away or been exiled to Rinan County. Now the slave family has no relatives in Luoyang, and can only rely on a little scraps to survive. ”
Xun Gang heard about Rinan County for the second time today, so he quietly asked, "Yuan Zhi, where is this Rinan County?" ”
"The southernmost ...... of Jiaozhou," Xu Shu replied lightly, but it was obvious that his focus was not on Xun Gang.
"I'll go! Isn't that Vietnam? ”
Xu Shu moved a few steps forward, his expression was very gentle, and said to Dou E: "Son-in-law, you have no relatives in Luoyang, and now you are in charge, what are your plans?" ”
I'll go! Are you just picking up girls in front of your master? Xun Gang was extremely unhappy in his heart, but he was helpless, who made himself look "young"?
Since I can't get ...... Why not let my men get it?
No way, who made me so kind? I didn't want my cousin to die, so I wooed him, and I didn't want Guo Jia to die, so I wooed him. Now that his cronies like a beautiful girl, why not help him?
But this Xu Shu's ability to take the girl is really anxious! You should have just said that you should have brought her to the Xun family!
Looks like you're going to have to rely on me......
"The slave family doesn't know what to do, so they can only ......"
Before Dou E finished speaking, Xun Gang immediately spoke out to obstruct her, saying: "The son-in-law has no relatives, and we understand it very well." But if it goes on for so long, it will not be a good policy, so let's ask, how old is the girl? ”
Dou E was stunned for a moment, and replied honestly: "The slave family is twenty-one years old. ”
Twenty-one...... That's not small, at least it's long past the age of talking about marriage, and in this era, they all belong to older leftover women.
"Yuan Zhi, how old are you?" Xun Gang asked again.
Xu Shu was stunned for a moment, and seemed to vaguely guess what Xun Gang wanted to do, and replied: "I was born in the first year of Yongxi, and it stands to reason that I should be one year older than Miss Dou." ”
When Dou E heard this, her head slowly drooped, and a blush appeared on her cheeks; She has been in this society for many years, why don't she know Xun Gang's intentions?
But Xun Gang only felt ...... You've both grown so big, why haven't you started a family yet? It stands to reason that in this era, you should have gotten married about ten years ago!
"Ahem! Son-in-law, to be honest, in fact, he is not He Jin's grandson......"
Dou E didn't seem to be much surprised, and if she was surprised, she was afraid that she was only surprised that this child was young and old. She bowed her head slightly and said softly: "Although the slave family doesn't read poetry and books, whether it is a person in the government or not, the slave family can still share it." Forgive the slave family for bluntly saying that I am afraid that the general He Jin will not be able to educate such a smart child. ”
"Hahaha! Prizes have been awarded! Xun Gang was rarely happy, after all, it was indeed a happy thing to be praised by a beautiful woman. After a while, Xun Gang became serious again, and said seriously: "Actually, there is a person from the Yingyin Xun family, named Xun Gang; This is my attendant, named Xu Shu, and his character is straight. I thought the next thing was very important to the girl, so I had to report it to the family. ”
Dou E blushed instantly, and said in a low voice: "What is important, Childe, please say." ”
"My Xun family is in a safe corner, at least it is safe now; And Luoyang is mixed, and there are many eunuchs, which is really unsafe. I want to invite my son-in-law to take refuge in Xun's house...... However, if a woman comes to my Xun family, it is really inappropriate not to have a name, so I hope to ......"
"The son-in-law can marry Xu Shu!"
Dou E expected this to be the case, so she was so ashamed that she couldn't speak, so she only dared to bow her head silently and roll up her skirt; And Xu Shu, who was standing beside Xun Gang, was even more embarrassed, although he was not blushing like Dou E, but he didn't dare to look at Dou E squarely, so as to relieve the tension in his heart.
To be honest, he really didn't have a good impression of this woman when he first saw her; But after such a short conversation, and after seeing the beauty of this woman's light makeup, he not only pitied the woman's background, but also wanted to protect her as a man.
But he didn't dare to say this to Dou E, after all, he was just a small servant under Xun Gang, no matter how down-and-out Dou E was, he was also a royal disciple on the surface, how could he be worthy?
"Childe, this matter ......" Xu Shu hesitated slightly, but still gritted his teeth and said seriously: "Miss Dou is a royal descendant after all, I am a grass citizen, how can I be worthy of her?" If it was because of my own selfish desires, wouldn't it ruin the girl's good future? ”
Xun Gang's eyes remained unchanged, and he said word by word: "Is this your true word?" ”
Xu Shu stopped talking.
"Hey...... Yuan Zhi, excessive kindness is not only harmful to yourself! Xun Gang sighed lightly and said to Dou E: "Although Xu Shu is only my little guy now, he is very intelligent, and he will definitely achieve success in the future...... Miss Dou, I know that Xu Shu is very grateful to you for rescuing you, but I am afraid that Xu Shu will not look down on you as a down-and-out woman. Now that Xu Shu clearly says that he doesn't dislike you, what are your plans? ”
Xun Gongzi's words...... Thank you very much! Dou E's face was still flushed, and there was obviously a hint of affection in her eyes when she looked at Xu Shu, "But I don't want this kind of thing to rely on Xun Gongzi's help...... Can I let Xu Gongzi be alone with me for a while? ”
Get! Thankless, Lao Tzu actually became a light bulb! I'm going, I'm leaving!
But how can women in feudal society still have such a strong sense of autonomy?
Xun Gang only felt angry and funny, opened the door and slipped out, turned around and looked at Xu Shu without saying a word, thinking that you should fight for me a little!
The two of them sat in the middle of the room for a long time......
