Chapter 5: The Opportunity of Crisis
Gao Huan has been shopping around the three floors of the Lou family's mansion since he arrived in Pingcheng, and the residences of famous families are luxurious, although Pingcheng is close to the northern grasslands, and the dry winds always sweep the sandstorms all over the sky. But for Gao Huan, who has crossed over from modern society, everything is so novel, so tempting, so exciting, and even the ancient people's diet, daily life, talking and walking, he is very interested in recording all of them in a booklet, and the teacher in the classroom can't teach these things in the book. I can't put down any object, and in the end, this grandson even stole a painting hanging in the guest room, and thought about selling it as an antique after he went back?!
It is said that the eldest lord of the Lou family is not a scholar of the dynasty, but the emperor has a meritorious service in reading his family's old town, and he is given a title of Shangshu, and he does not take up the actual job, just like hanging an idle white-collar salary. Of course, in Pingcheng, the old capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Lou family is also a prominent family. It is impossible to talk about family wealth (after all, it is so easy to accumulate wealth in troubled times of warlords), but Lou Shangshu has more than a dozen farms in his hands, plus the income of several shops in Pingcheng and Luoyang, plus the annual tribute and Yulu of the fiefdom, the silver alone is millions of dollars a year!!
Since Gao Huan has made up his mind not to think about going home for the time being (he himself can't think about it), he naturally wants to survive in this troubled world, not only to live, but also to live a wonderful and comfortable life.
Since ancient times, in prosperous times or troubled times, men have always longed for power, wealth and beauty, not to mention that Gao Huan is a highly educated future youth, and his heart is always full of a sense of superiority, a strong desire to create brilliance and change history, and vain attempts to reach the princes always fill his mind. But in the world, if you want to develop since ancient times, it is always easier for you to have the power of a big family to support, on the contrary, the journey of Jiebuyi wanting to start from scratch is always full of ups and downs.
And Miss Lou Zhaojun (Lou Mingchun) just meets Gao Huan's current dependency requirements, not to mention that Lou Mingchun seems to have admired Gao Huan very much, Gao Huan has been in Lou's house for half a month, those subordinate servants always look at people and mock him with low eyes, even Lou Shangshu is gradually not cold to him, he doesn't love to answer and ignore, but Lou Mingchun always sends the maid Hongyu to come to the guest room every once in a while to ask for warmth.
Gao Huan, this kid knows that Hongyu (the one who charged the phone bill) is Lou Mingchun's personal maid, and he always tries to please him, even if he doesn't have much money on him, he always bribes Hongyu with a small favor, Hongyu is happy to pass on the message to Gao Huan, and the young lady likes him a little. (I always ask Hongyu about Gao Huan when I have something to do, and the fools can see it)
Gao Huan, this kid deserves to be a good young man in modern society, and always remembers a classic: Life is like a drama all depends on acting skills! If there is nothing to do, he is still practicing the fancy kung fu he learned in the courtyard, those maids and old mothers in the deep boudoir cabinet have never seen such a handsome teenager practicing in the yard every day, all peeking on the side like, the servants of the Lou family began to gossip in two groups, the male maids hated Gao Huan to death in private, and the little white face still stayed at home and did not leave, and they spit and cursed Gao Huan at night when they held sleeper meetings. The maids privately talked about Gao Huan's abdominal muscles, his handsome face, and his majestic figure. A few old mothers who are wives often say dirty things to make fun of those nympho maids.
Gao Huan didn't know that people looked down on him, but he was helpless, powerless, powerless, and not on the thighs of Lou Mingchun, a female tycoon, who did you let him go to? "Those who say they are self-made every day are liars! Which of them could have succeeded without the help of nobles? Gao Huan thought viciously: "Although Lao Tzu is a person who has crossed over from the future, he also has to eat and sleep, and Lao Tzu's pants are not worn outside!" "In fact, this is also a fact, no matter how talented a person is, it depends on whether he is lucky, and if he has luck to seize the opportunity, he also needs the help of nobles, then you can become a human being, and live outside the sky.
On this day, Gao Huan took the initiative to find Lou Mingchun: "Miss, I have a reluctant request below, and I hope Miss wishes me a hand." ”
"If the benefactor has any orders, just say it, and the slave family will see if it can be done." Lou Mingchun looked at Gao Huan with a smile and said.
"Then let's talk about it directly, I also mentioned to the young lady before, I have a sister who was fined and confiscated into the official maid to do hard labor in Pingcheng, I think I haven't seen her for two years, I don't know if she's okay. These days, I have been asking everywhere about her whereabouts, but there are not many people who know her with meagre ability, and I have no clue after many inquiries, so I want to ask Miss to help me ......" Gao Huan looked at Lou Mingchun implicitly.
Lou Mingchun blushed when he was looked at by Gao Huan affectionately, and turned his head and replied shyly: "What did I worry about Gongzi at that time, it seems that Gongzi is really a filial lover, and he always cares about the safety of his family." In fact, this is also a trivial matter, I asked my father to come forward to help go to a few officials and maids near Pingcheng to ask, I should be able to find your sister, and then let the government make an announcement to redeem your sister's free body, and help her find a good family to marry in the future. ”
"It's good, but I'm penniless now, and I can't protect myself, I'm afraid I don't have the money to redeem my sister, so I can only watch her suffer in the official department." After that, Gao Huan deliberately wiped his tears.
I give 99 points for this kid's play, and I give one less point because I am afraid that he will be proud, deceiving this kind of ignorant girl in the deep boudoir compound is really one set after another, but then again, this Lou Mingchun is everyone's best girl, after the famous family, the daughter of a rich family is really so easy to deceive?
"Childe doesn't have to worry about the ransom, if there is really no money, then I can help Childe make a contribution, and I should repay Childe for saving his life." This Lou Mingchun is also smart, not to say that I will withdraw money for you now, but only to help you pay the ransom at that time, so that Gao Huan will owe Lou Mingchun a favor again. With one doing two, it is estimated that Gao Huan, who is a modern person, did not see it at that time. However, Lou Mingchun's starting point is good, she really likes this caring life-saving benefactor, so we don't have to worry about Gao Huan.
It is also said that Gao Huan is really lucky, according to the portrait of the famous disc sent by his hometown, he really found his sister Gao Lan, who he had never met, in the miscellaneous office of Pingcheng. The official in charge of the office, because he saw that it was someone from Shangshufu who came forward, was also happy to be a favor, and immediately eliminated the slave status and redeemed himself, and the ransom was only a symbolic piece of silver. These events also show that the Northern Wei Dynasty was chaotic and corrupt at that time.
Misfortune and fortune are relied on, at present, Gao Huan's frequent private meetings with Lou Mingchun are spread all over the city, and Lou Shangshu has no choice but to issue an expulsion order to Gao Huan to take Gao Lan back to Huaishuo.
The drama of the eighteen-mile pavilion was launched.
"Childe, you have a long way to go, you must take care of your health." Next to the carriage, Lou Mingchun, who was wearing a red cloak, looked at Gao Huan and said with affection.
"Mingchun, don't worry, when I go back this time, I will definitely work hard to practice, and strive to earn an official and a half-position in the army as soon as possible, and then I will go back to Pingcheng to find you. I don't complain about Lord Shangshu's decision, I only complain that my background is too low to be worthy of you, but I am afraid that you will suffer in the future. "Speaking of which, Gao Huan is also affectionate, caressing Lou Mingchun's pair of softness.
Are these two people now in private for life?
Gao Lan and Hongyu were also red-faced when they watched on the side, and it was difficult to stop them.
Lou Mingchun had already lowered his head with a blushing face, and thought in his heart: This person is my husband, I want to find such a hard-working and filial person as a partner.
After these two months of getting along, Gao Huan's extraordinary modern romantic acting skills have long made Lou Mingchun fall in love with this handsome, tall and burly, and warm-hearted Gao Gongzi, and even have the idea of making a private life.
How Gao Huan got the hearts of beauties, I want to explain here.
Women, and beauties who are not bad for money, generally do not lack suitors, but after those gentlemen or businessmen, it is often difficult to enter the eyes of this high-ranking young lady. Why? Because you can never grasp the mind of a young woman, especially a lady like Lou Zhaojun, who is knowledgeable and far-sighted, she often chooses something that seems unlikely and unreliable to ordinary people to do, and it is difficult for a beautiful and wise woman to be understood by ordinary people.
Just like the supervising vision of Warren Buffett, our Miss Lou has a discerning eye and feels that Gao Huan will definitely soar to glory in the future, so why not help him when he is down?
The kid has a limerick poem:
Modern youth are not careful, and they have crossed into the ancients overnight,
When the heaven-sent couples are down, they pretend to be heroes and enter the red dust.
Anyway, Gao Huan is like the pig's feet of those martial arts novels, and he unexpectedly obtained a "peerless miracle". But how to use this kung fu well, and how we, a college student from modern society, went step by step from a down-and-out scholar clan in the Northern Wei Dynasty to a generation of heroes, and look at my later narrative.
