Chapter 023 Good deeds are done to the end
When Yuqing saw him like this, she remembered that he had mentioned his mother, and couldn't help but feel nervous: "Why do you have this look?" Could it be your mother......"
The young man burst into tears, choked up, and said, "My mother, she...... I starved to death before I could get my steamed buns......"
Speaking of this, he knelt down and kept kowtowing to Yuqing: "It is said that the little one can't make a request to the master, but as a son, I can't watch my mother can't go into the ground."
The little one begged the master to reward him with a dozen dollars, so that the little one could buy a mat and bury my mother. ”
Sure enough, it is easy not to do good deeds, and with the above, there must be the following.
Yu Qing sighed lightly, stepped forward to help the young man, and found that he was skinny.
"You wait for me, I'll send my sister home and I'll talk to you in detail."
The young man nodded, sat down on the big stone in the shade of the tree on the side of the road, and watched Yu Qing lead Yu Jie into the mansion through the side door.
Yuqing handed Yujie into the hands of the He family, and explained the reason why she had to go out again.
He has always been kind-hearted, and asked her if she had enough money in her hand, and not enough for her to give silver.
Yuqing asked for a silver ingot and three taels, and still went out in men's clothes.
In ancient times, it was much better to be a man than a woman, and men had many privileges in society and were not constrained in their actions.
Yuqing lowered her head and walked while thinking about whether she wanted to pretend to be a man for the rest of her life, and the feet of a man in boots reflected her watery eyes.
Yuqing looked up along those feet, saw Shen Zhaohan, and immediately had a stinky face, ignored him, and passed by him.
Shen Zhaohan was busy behind her back and sincerely apologized: "Miss Yuqing, I'm sorry, I shouldn't maliciously speculate on you without knowing the truth. ”
Yuqing stopped, turned around and faced him: "Okay, I accept your apology." ”
She has an advantage that many girls don't have, that is, as long as the other party apologizes, she can not blame the past.
After Yuqing finished speaking, he walked outside the mansion.
When she left the palace, she saw at a glance that the young man was still sitting there.
The boy saw her too, and got up from the stone.
Yu Qing didn't give him the silver, but asked him to take her to see his mother.
It's okay to do good deeds, but she is afraid of being deceived, and she must see is believing, so she will give him money for the funeral.
The two men walked forward with each other.
Yuqing asked the young man what his name was.
The young man replied: "The little one is called Liu Dazhuang, and he dares to ask the son's name." ”
Yuqing waved her hand: "Don't call me son, just call me Aqing." ”
The young man replied, "Yes, master." ”
This is called...... It's advanced~
Yuqing was speechless and asked Liu Dazhuang if their family had come here from a foreign country, because she heard his accent not local.
Liu Dazhuang lowered his head and said yes.
In a low voice, he told Yuqing that their home was in the Central Plains, where there was a drought this year.
The family could no longer survive in the local area, so they went out with the fleeing team to find a way to survive.
But how can there be a way for the poor to live in the whole world?
In order not to drag down their family and give them a glimmer of hope to survive, their grandparents jumped into the river and died on the way to escape the famine.
Speaking of this, the young man's voice choked: "At that time, it was not only my grandparents who jumped into the river, there were many old people.
Those old people feel that they will spoil food if they live, and it is better to leave food to us juniors~"
Yuqing was sad when she heard this, and asked, "You are so badly affected there, doesn't the court care about it?" ”
The young man wiped away a handful of tears and sneered: "Don't say that the affected area is not large, the local officials will not report to the imperial court."
Even if the affected area is large, and the local officials have to report to the imperial court, what if the imperial court allocates relief food?
Those relief grains are exploited layer by layer in the hands of those officials, and how many grains of grain can they have in the hands of the common people? ”
Yuqing listened to him speak a little crepe, and asked, "Have you ever studied?" ”
Liu Dazhuang nodded: "I have read it, my grandfather said that the world is the world of scholars, only by studying can you be an official, and only by being an official can you not be bullied, and being a farmer can only be oppressed by others for a lifetime."
So I want to test my fame, even if I am admitted to a show, it is good.
It's a pity that my family is too poor, and even though I have limited food and clothing, I can only study for three years, so I shouldn't be blind. ”
Yuqing's heart moved: "Then do you still want to study?" ”
She has an idea in her heart, that is, if Liu Dazhuang still wants to study, and if his character is still passable, she will pay for him to study.
It's about helping him and helping yourself.
He is his benefactor anyway, and if he has a future in the future, he will definitely protect her mother and daughter for a few points.
In this cannibalistic ancient times, women are like snails without a shell without shelter, and it is too difficult to survive~
Although Yuqing didn't think about reciprocating when she helped Liu Dazhuang at first, she has never been a rigid person, and she can achieve a win-win situation, so why not?
Liu Dazhuang shook his head: "I don't like to study very much, I love to dance with knives and sticks." ”
When Yuqing heard this, she had to give up.
She wanted to ask why only his mother and son fled here, and whether the other family members were starving to death on the way.
I was afraid to ask her about her sadness, so I couldn't help but ask.
However, Liu Dazhuang himself told her intermittently that his father and younger siblings had starved to death on the way to escape the famine, and now even his mother was starving to death.
From then on, he had no relatives in the world, and lived alone.
When the boy said this, he finally couldn't help but break down and cry.
Yuqing, who had been listening silently with her head down, raised her head and was about to comfort him, but suddenly found that she was in a deserted field, and couldn't help but stop vigilantly.
You can't have the heart to hurt others, and you can't have the heart to defend people.
Although she helped the teenager, but he is so poor, will he do too much to her, such as robbery, such as kidnapping?
When people are poor, they will really be extremely vicious~
Liu Dazhuang saw that Yuqing suddenly didn't leave, wiped a handful of tears, and asked, "Master, are you tired of walking?" If you're tired of walking, I'll carry you. With that, he crouched down with his back to her.
Yu Qing looked at his thin and thin back, and was really worried that he would crush him if he pressed it, although he was also very thin, he still had weight.
It's really the first time she's seen such a thin boy~
Yuqing took advantage of Liu Dazhuang's back to her, quickly picked up a stone from the ground and put it in his sleeve, and asked, "How far is it before I can see your mother?" ”
"It's probably a mile or so." Liu Dazhuang turned his head to her and said, "Come up, master." ”
Yuqing shook her head: "I'm not tired, I can still walk." ”
Liu Dazhuang got up and took Yuqing to her in a hurry.
For the rest of the journey, Yuqing didn't say a word, kept holding the stone, vigilant around, and even more vigilant about Liu Dazhuang.
After walking about a mile, Liu Dazhuang took her to a ruined temple.
As soon as Yuqing entered the ruined temple, she saw a skinny woman lying on the ground.
Liu Dazhuang walked over, knelt down beside the woman, and couldn't help crying bitterly: "Mother, my benefactor came to see you~"
