Chapter 6: The "Ten Years"
For @ζ½ζ½ζ½ εεΊ)
Liu Xiaoya is the daughter of Master Liu Mou Liu of Sandaokan Town, eighteen miles east of Qiancheng County, Chenyuan Road, because her mother is the dowry girl of the eldest lady, and her status is not high, so that she is not favored by such a daughter, just like a maid.
But because of this identity, I don't have a young lady's temper, so I'm still a pretty good person.
The little carpenter followed Lu Da to get tired of winning in Liu's house, and helped build a new house, stayed in Sandaokan Town for a while, and knew this Miss Liu, and later when he was trapped in the hands of Wu Banxian's thief, he also asked her to help bring the letter, but the letter was finally robbed by the tiger, so that his intentions were exposed, and he was almost forced by the tiger to kill people.
Fortunately, Qu Menghu happened to follow Liu Xiaoya's second brother Liu Zhiyi to Sandaokan Town and learned about it, and then the little carpenter was lucky and met Luo Fugui, and with the help of these two people, he was able to get out.
Later, the Liu family was retaliated against, tossed, Master Liu died, and the house was burned, while Liu Zhiyi and Liu Xiaoya went to the provincial capital and took refuge with the eldest brother.
It has been a long time, the world is changeable, the tiger who almost killed the little carpenter at the beginning, actually turned into a fat orange cat, and was bullied by the little carpenter to death, and the two finally reached a reconciliation because of their common enemy Zhang Qiming......
As for this Miss Liu, the little carpenter never saw it again.
He thought that Liu Xiaoya would stay in the provincial capital of Tanzhou, maybe go to a school, or get married or something, but he didn't expect to appear in this high-end hotel of the Ten Mile Foreign Bank.
The most surprising thing is that she is dressed in this dress, which is almost no different from the courtesan.
Frightened, the little carpenter forgot to leave.
He saw that Liu Xiaoya wanted to get up several times, but he couldn't stand up, and when he looked closely, he found that her right leg was red and swollen, obviously seriously injured.
What kind of person would be so ruthless to a "weak woman"?
The little carpenter knew that it was not a simple character to be able to live in this Jinjiang Hotel, so he didn't have the heart to inquire, but walked up to Liu Xiaoya, stretched out his hand, and said, "Your leg is injured, come, I'll help you up and go to my room to rest." β
Liu Xiaoya listened, raised her head, glanced at the little carpenter, hesitated, and finally couldn't bear the pain, nodded and said, "Okay, thank you." β
The little carpenter helped her up and found that she couldn't walk, so he directly picked up the person and came to the door of his room, and after opening the door, he carried the person into the sofa outside the suite, and after Liu Xiaoya sat down, he said with some embarrassment: "Sir, I'm sorry, I'm a little uncomfortable, I may not be able to give you ......."
If it was just based on appearance, the little carpenter was still not sure, but at this moment, Liu Xiaoya's pitiful words made him completely sure of the industry she was engaged in at the moment.
Merely......
She could have lived a better life, so why did she end up here?
Didn't her eldest brother become a general under the Overseers?
The little carpenter was very sad when he heard this, sighed, and said, "Don't get me wrong, I just see that you are quite pitiful in the corridor, so I will let you come in and rest, and if your legs are a little better later, I will not do anything to you if you leave......"
Liu Xiaoya was relieved when she heard this, and said to the little carpenter: "Sir, you are really a good person......
The little carpenter became more and more uncomfortable when he heard her words with a bit of a dry city accent, so he asked, "Do you want to drink water, and I will pour you a glass of water?" β
Although he was asking, he didn't let the other party refuse, turned around, and poured a glass of water for Liu Xiaoya.
Liu Xiaoya took the cup, took a sip, and felt the pain soothed, so he had time to look at the young man in front of him who had reached out in time to help, and found that this gentleman didn't know why, but he really looked a little familiar.
The more she looked, the more she felt that the other party was a little familiar, and couldn't help asking, "Sir, take the liberty of asking, do we know each other?" β
The little carpenter nodded and said, "Yes, I once helped build a house with my master Lu Da at your house - although there were some accidents at the beginning, and the house was not built in the end......
Hearing this, Liu Xiaoya suddenly remembered, and said with a surprised face: "You, you are the thirteenth brother?" β
She really didn't expect that the taciturn and rustic little carpenter and young man who hadn't seen him for a few years had become a radiant and chic young man at the moment, and he still lived in the most expensive Jinjiang Hotel in Shanghai......
The gentleman in front of her, and the little carpenter at the beginning, although the two of them are very imaginary, their spiritual temperament is completely different, and the difference is really too big, so that she didn't recognize it at first.
Seeing the little carpenter at this moment, Liu Xiaoya's almost dusty memory of the past suddenly turned up, and remembered the flattery just now, there was no surprise of reunion after a long absence, but he was ashamed and annoyed, and he got up directly from the sofa at the moment, wanting to escape outside.
She wanted to run as far as possible, and she wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, but as soon as she stood up, her right leg was in pain, but she fell to the ground again.
The little carpenter is such a smart person, he naturally knows Liu Xiaoya's embarrassment, and he comforted her at the moment: "Don't worry, your leg seems to be injured, and you can't move for a while, rest for a while, if it doesn't work, wait until tomorrow, I'll go to the doctor to give you a specific examination......"
He didn't ask why Liu Xiaoya appeared here, nor did he ask her how she drove people out of the room, but comforted her and helped her back to the sofa.
Liu Xiaoya was ashamed and annoyed, but at the moment she was really a little inconvenient to move, and she didn't insist anymore.
Then the doorbell rang, and the little carpenter got up, went to the door, opened it, and saw that it was the waiter of the hotel.
The man came to inquire, and he said that a guest complained that there was a quarrel in the corridor on the fifth floor, and it was quite fierce, so he came to see it, but he didn't see anything, so he asked if he knew......
The little carpenter shook his head, and said no, and the waiter did not ask more, but saluted him, saying that he was too disturbed.
After closing the door, the little carpenter came back to the sofa and helped Liu Xiaoya to check it briefly, and found that her right foot was red and swollen, and it didn't look good, and asked her if she was going to the doctor now, Liu Xiaoya refused, saying that she wanted to wait and see, and the little carpenter saw that she was very persistent, so he went to find a wet towel and helped her put it on.
After being busy for a while, he sat down and asked Liu Xiaoya why he was here on the beach?
Liu Xiaoya was asked by the little carpenter, hesitated for a while, and the circles under her eyes suddenly turned red, and then she choked up, which made the little carpenter very embarrassed, saying that if it is inconvenient to say, then it is okay not to say it.
As a result, Liu Xiaoya was in tears, sobbing and talking to the little carpenter about her later experience.
It turned out that she and her second brother went to Tanzhou, took refuge in her eldest brother, and stayed in Tanzhou for a while, but his eldest brother had a conflict with others because of his desire for revenge, but in the end he was ousted from power, not only that, but he also lost his life, so that she and her second brother had to escape from Tanzhou overnight.
Later, the two traveled everywhere, and finally arrived in Jinling, but the two were separated, she waited for her second brother at the station for more than ten days, penniless, at the end of the road, met a kind person, the eldest sister treated her like a sister, she was very moved, just thought that she had met a good person, did not want to follow to Shanghai after the beach, the eldest sister changed her face, not only let people take away her innocence, but also trained her to become a dancer, let her come out, use her body to earn money......
After saying this, the more Liu Xiaoya thought about it, the more sad she became, and she couldn't help crying.
She asked sensitively, "Brother Thirteen, do you look down on me?" β
After hearing this, the little carpenter comforted the other party, and at the same time sighed with some emotion - the country is in turmoil, the world is restless, and forcing good prostitutes is like a carp crossing the river, he has seen a lot of it, but he didn't expect that even the daughter of Master Liu has become a victim of the torrent of this era.
Alas......
Many things are nothing more than a long sigh.
The little carpenter comforted Liu Xiaoya with kind words, and the girl cried very sadly, but after a while, she was tired, and the little carpenter saw that she was very sleepy, so he helped her to the bed, and asked her to rest first, and everything will be said tomorrow.
After settling Liu Xiaoya, the little carpenter returned to the sofa outside, thought for a while, and felt that since he was an old man, he naturally had to lend a hand.
As for how to do it, we have to wait for Liu Xiaoya to wake up tomorrow and talk to her before making plans.
He stopped thinking about it, meditated cross-legged, and closed his eyes.
The next morning, the little carpenter woke up, went to wash, pushed open the door, looked at Liu Xiaoya on the bed, and found that she was sleeping soundly, and it was really not easy to disturb.
The little carpenter was not sure when she would wake up, thought for a moment, and left her a note, telling her that he would come back later after a trip.
Out of the door, the little carpenter hurried to the sixteenth shop.
After all, he was still a little relieved about Yang Bo, and wanted to see if this guy was used to staying in the Jiangyin Gang.
This worry dissipated after he arrived at the dock and met with Yang Bo - that guy was originally a green-skinned bastard on the street, and he was the best at making friends, and in one day, he had already reached a relationship with the Jiangyin Gang, and he was happy, and he didn't need to worry about anything at all.
Yang Bo was very happy when he saw the little carpenter coming to see him, and tried his best to keep him, saying that they would eat together at noon, and he invited everyone to join him.
The little carpenter saw that he was so energetic, and he didn't refuse, anyway, when he went out, he had already explained and asked the hotel to send food to the room.
During the meal, Yang Bo introduced the little carpenter to the newly befriended brothers, saying that he was his eldest brother, who was very good at it, and was a first-class powerful character.
These people are all the personnel of the Jiangyin Gang on the dock, although there is no leader like Wang Yidao, but there are also some small leaders, seeing the little carpenter's extraordinary bearing, they all have respect, and they are more and more affectionate and polite to Yang Bo.
Yang Bo earned face as a little carpenter, and became more and more happy.
After eating, the little carpenter stopped staying, returned to the concession, and when he arrived at the hotel, he saw that Liu Xiaoya was still there, so he found a doctor through the hotel to come and check on the injury.
Jin Jiang Hotel is one of the best hotels in Shanghai, and customers will naturally arrange for a doctor if they need it.
It didn't take long for a doctor to come and see it, and it was determined that Liu Xiaoya's right leg calf bone had some bone cracks, and he helped make a splint and prescribed medicine, so that he could recuperate more and not move around at will......
