Chapter 39: Is My Brother Okay?
"Subordinate, meet the deputy master."
The peach blossom prodigal son walked over, he couldn't even walk, his little face was flushed, and his embarrassed appearance fell in Ye Ruoxi's eyes, which was called an ecstasy.
"How can a man grow to such a demonic level, more feminine than a woman!"
She groaned in her heart, and looked up and down with sharp eyes at this man who had changed from the prodigal son of the peach blossom to the women's peach version with her sharp eyes.
The two groups were upright, towering in front of Ye Ruoxi's eyes, she snapped her fingers, glanced at the two maids with appreciative eyes, nodded and cocked her thumbs. I have to admit that Ye Tianqing's carefully trained subordinates are not covered, they are all human spirits.
"Vice-Door Master ......"
The peach blossom prodigal son is about to cry, how can he see people like this?
The tearful peach blossom prodigal son looks even more pitiful, so that every man who sees him will feel endless pity from the depths of his heart, and want to take him into his arms and comfort him.
"Jiao Tao, you are really the appearance of the city and the country, I can't imagine that when you dress up like this, you are a stunning beauty. You say, don't you? ”
"That's what the master said."
A few people around bowed down to agree, and the eyes of the other four men were glued to Jiao Tao's body, and they looked a little unable to move away.
"Go down, all of you."
A few guards bowed down and retreated, and Ye Ruoxi and the peach version of the peach blossom prodigal son were left in the room.
"The way you look now, even if you are standing at the gate of the burglar's door, it is difficult for anyone to recognize you."
"Yes, my subordinates thank the deputy master for his hard work."
Jiao Tao lowered his head, looking like a wronged little daughter-in-law, he didn't dare to say much, and it was difficult to sleep day and night nightmares, so he was worried that he didn't know when, the knives of the thieves and brothers were inserted from behind him. Compared to those days, he can only accept the current arrangement.
Ye Ruoxi's tone became cold, and a chill welled up from the depths of his eyes, staring coldly at the peach blossom prodigal. The people who burglar the door all use nicknames, especially these people in the upper echelons, who refuse to reveal their true identities and names, and their real identities and names are only known to the door owner and some high-level officials.
"The subordinates don't dare."
The peach blossom prodigal son fell to his knees, and the pressure given to him by the deputy master in front of him was not much less than that of the door master.
"You stay here first, learn how to be a good woman, and I'll arrange the rest for you."
"Yes, my subordinates obey."
Ye Ruoxi threw the peach blossom prodigal son into the Xi family's industry, turned around and left, the peach blossom prodigal son had to learn how to be a woman first, and then learn the etiquette and rules of the court, she believed that this set was enough for the peach blossom prodigal son to drink a few pots.
"Small, don't beat you, don't scold you, I'll torture you with rules. Sister doesn't hold grudges, sister usually revenge at the time if she has a grudge, I really don't hate your peach. ”
Several problems deliberately given to Ye Ruoxi were quickly solved by Ye Ruoxi, of course she didn't know that a series of problems, including the peach blossom prodigal, were deliberately arranged for her by a certain guy with a very high demon index and a black belly and an iron fist.
She is beautiful, and the feeling of being admired by everyone in the burglar door is very good.
Now that she has arrived at the thief door not long ago, she is already a highly respected and popular deputy master, as long as she works a little harder, she will get all the thieves into her hands, just around the corner.
After getting the peach version of the peach blossom prodigal, she went to her beauty salon to do beauty, and by the way, sent a message to her demon brother to come over to discuss how to toss the peach blossom prodigal.
"This beauty is also very popular here!"
Looking at the traffic in front of the beauty salon, Ye Ruoxi was full of a sense of accomplishment, in the ancient times of this different world, she fully carried forward the essence of the 21st century, and made several businesses that looked strange in the Tanglin Kingdom and the thief. For example, beauty salons, fashion houses......
Xuanyuan Zhi once lamented that now this big thief and thief is becoming more and more difficult to do, and how can he lead the brothers who steal the door to be well-off, from the underworld to the light, this great and arduous task fell on Ye Ruoxi.
This was Xuanyuan Yan's first test of Ye Ruoxi, to see how many skills and tricks Ye Ruoxi had.
Now a small half of the thieves have been reduced to men and waiters, and while showing their skills in all walks of life, they have also spied on a lot of news.
This beauty salon is not for everyone to come into, Ye Ruoxi is taking the high-end route, and the young grandmothers and young ladies of those rich and wealthy mansions are fooled, including the wives of high-ranking officials, concubines, young ladies, seven aunts and eight aunts.
Doing beauty is not only a costly thing, but also a laborious thing.
When you are bored with beauty, you will chat and reveal some secrets, and those who steal the door and change their careers to become waiters undoubtedly have a very high talent and potential to steal news, and take advantage of this convenience to set up a lot of secrets. Although most of it is gossip and not much use, there is no shortage of useful things either.
Ye Ruoxi originally wanted to do a beauty salon, pinch her little face, or loosen her muscles or something. It turned out that the beauty salon was already full, and even she, the boss behind the scenes, had no place to lie down.
Helpless, she could only go to the backyard of the teahouse next to the beauty salon, asked for good tea, fruits, and snacks while lying on the bed to eat, and opened the book given to her by the little demon.
The package contains the history of the Tanglin Kingdom, chronicles, wild history anecdotes, the etiquette rules of the imperial palace and officialdom, customs and customs, etc......
"I should also have a good understanding of the history and customs of the Tanglin Kingdom, as well as the various rules and etiquette. Although I don't want to completely become an ancient person and kneel and kowtow at every turn, I must understand the history of the Tanglin Kingdom and understand these things. ”
Looking at it, Ye Ruoxi inadvertently saw that there was a wild history, which was about an official family, and there was an unruly love between brothers and sisters, which eventually led to a tragedy.
The head of the family was the official of the court, because of this incident was degraded and dismissed, the brother and sister had no shame to face the family, and finally the family was ruined and discredited, and the brother and sister committed suicide and the other was executed by clan rules. The emperor decreed that this family will never listen to it within three generations!
"So serious?"
"What's so serious, my good sister, you're willing to read?"
Kang Yuanbang pushed the door from the outside and walked in, just as he saw Ye Ruoxi staring at the book in his hand with his eyes puffed out.
"Big brother, come and see, is it so serious?"
Ye Ruoxi stared at the wild history in the book in front of her a little nervously, and her heart palpitated, and suddenly she remembered Kang Yuanyuan's hidden affection for her, how similar it was to the brother and sister in the book.
The difference is that she doesn't love Kang Yuanyuan, she only has the love of friends, sisters and brothers or brothers and sisters, but there is no love between men and women.
However, if she delayed like this, she didn't know if Kang Yuanyuan would do anything, so that it would lead to a result that was so serious that she couldn't bear it, as written in the book.
"How did you start reading?"
Kang Yuanbang picked up the book and looked at it a few times, and couldn't help frowning Xiuyi's eyebrows slightly, so coincidentally, she saw this story.
"Big brother, is this true or false?"
It is true, although it is recorded in the history of the wilderness, it is only because this incident is too rebellious, shocking to the world, and it is immoral and unethical and moral, so it is not recorded in the official history. What's more, this kind of thing cannot be compared with national events, and it is not enough to be recorded in the official history. ”
"Is the fate of that family really so miserable?"
"Yes, there are many things that are not very well recorded in the wild history, and after the death of the brother and sister, their parents were also ashamed of this incident, committed suicide and apologized, and the family died, scattered, and dilapidated. Many of his descendants changed their names and surnames, and they were reluctant to admit that they were descendants of the family. ”
"Is it that serious? Brother and sister falling in love is a bit serious, and it should just be the fault of the two of them, so it won't get to such a point, right? Big brother, how do you know so clearly? ”
"The reason why I know so clearly is because the Xi family and this family were originally world friends, and the Xi family also had a lot of favors to this family afterwards. So far, this family and the Xi family still have secret contacts and have never severed contacts. ”
"Oh, I see, is it because of the mistake of the brother and sister that they are so widely implicated? Even their parents, brothers, and even three generations later, will be affected? ”
"Yes, if you can't raise your godfather, and your children make such a big rebellion, how can their parents have the face to live? As an official in the court, even the family can't be cured, how can he rule the world and do things for the emperor? This kind of disobedience is absolutely difficult to be tolerated by the world in the Tanglin Kingdom. The emperor's disposition is in accordance with the law and is not biased. This wind cannot be opened, and once it is formed, it will inevitably be imitated by the world, and it will be weathered. ”
"The affairs of children also affect parents and brothers, and even the descendants of brothers after three generations, isn't it too ruthless?"
"That's naturally not too ruthless, the emperor has already been gracious, and he hasn't belittled them as cheap slaves, it's already the emperor's grace."
Ye Ruoxi frowned, she still didn't understand the rules and laws of the Tanglin Kingdom, according to what the eldest brother said, the emperor's disposition was not too much. As for the subsequent suicide and execution of the siblings, she can understand, but it is too serious for the parents to apologize for this matter, and even to the siblings and three generations later.
Kang Yuanbang told the story eloquently and explained to Ye Ruoxi the rules and etiquette, customs, laws, etc. of the Tanglin Kingdom before he explained it clearly.
Ye Ruoxi's face became heavy, she was not stupid, Kang Yuanbang didn't need to say much, she was already bright in her heart with a few words, staring at the book in Kang Yuanbang's hand, her heart suddenly weighed a thousand pounds.
Traveling to the Tanglin Kingdom, she is an orphan in the 21st century, so she has a special desire for home and cherishes the hard-won family affection in the Tanglin Kingdom.
This home, the Xi family, is her home to her.
Ye Tianqing doted on her, the kind of fatherly love that she had never reached, the caring eyes, and the warmth of caressing her hair, made her already regard Ye Tianqing as her biological father.
Although Kang Yuanbang's concern for her is faint, it is no less than Ye Tianqing, she has the feeling of a brother, willing to do things for her, clean up the mess, care about her and take care of her, that feeling makes her heart full of warmth.
"Ning Yuan, junior ......"
Ye Ruoxi smiled bitterly, maybe it was the "little three", and if she didn't think of it, she would say that Kang Yuanyuan was really the little three between her and Xuanyuan Yan.
The severity of this matter far exceeded Ye Ruoxi's imagination, she couldn't help but sigh, she couldn't imagine that because of the undeserved love affair between the brother and sister, it led to the complete destruction and ruin of a family, and she still didn't dare to show her face until three generations later.
Kang Yuanbang gently put the book back on the table: "You are looking for the eldest brother, what is the matter?" ”
He shifted the subject, believing that shrewdness and wisdom like her should have understood what he meant by his words.
Hearing Kang Yuanbang's words, Ye Ruoxi briefly explained the matter of the peach blossom prodigal.
"You have to send him to the queen, and the queen will not trust him."
"It doesn't matter, he is a master of martial arts, and his light skills are especially outstanding, maybe he can find out some news from the queen's side. Let's arrange this matter with Brother Lao, I always feel that our good aunt will never give up like this. ”
"If that's what you're going to do, so be it."
"Big brother, is the third brother okay?"
Su Jinyao also put the small bag of rice in the basket and said to Aunt Li: "Aunt Li, when I go home, pour out the rice bag and basket, and let Xiaocheng'er send it back to you." ”
"Okay, no hurry. It's okay to send it back by the way, and it's okay to bring it back next time you buy something. If you can use it at home, don't rush to send it, just use it. Aunt Li spoke very cheerfully, and while putting the money in her pocket, she sent Su Jinyao out.
When Su Jinyao went out of the door, she picked up the two bamboo poles that were lying outside the door just now, and when Aunt Li saw it, she was surprised: "Yo, Jinyao, you are really capable, you actually carried such a long bamboo pole back." ”
"Well, my dad said he was going to make baskets. In fact, I don't expect him to do much work, I just think that he is bored in the house, and I just want to find him a job to relieve his boredom. Su Jinyao didn't expect Su Xiangui to make money by weaving baskets.
It's just that seeing the self-blame and helplessness on that man's face, Su Jinyao will feel that it is better to let him do something than to raise him like a waste.
"What a good boy. Su family, this time is blessed. Aunt Li praised while helping Su Jinyao stabilize the bamboo.
At this time, Chun Niu came out of the house, and when she saw that Su Jinyao was leaving, she hurriedly chased out the door and said, "Jinyao is leaving?" Take so many things, and carry a bamboo pole, I'll give it to you. After speaking, she remembered Aunt Li who was still standing next to her, and Chun Niu turned her head again and said, "Sister-in-law, can I go and send Jinyao?" ”
"Why not, go ahead." Aunt Li nodded in agreement, but added, "Come back early for dinner." ”
"Hey." Chunniu agreed, and had already taken the basket of vegetables and rice from Su Jinyao's hand, and picked up the small basket that Su Jinyao brought with her when she went out in the morning from the ground, and followed Su Jinyao away.
After taking a few steps, Su Jinyao quietly glanced back, and saw that Aunt Li was still standing at the door, her eyes still looking at the spring girl beside her.
Su Jinyao understood a little in her heart, and she didn't say anything, but her steps were a little faster.
When she was far away, Su Jinyao said to Chunniu: "It's not early, don't send Chunniu, go back and help your sister-in-law cook." ”
"What's the hurry, it's still so far, you have to carry two baskets of bamboo alone, how can you do it. I'll send you home. Chun Niu is sincere, she didn't even hear what Su Jinyao meant.
Su Jinyao estimated that Chunniu didn't understand what her sister-in-law meant at all. Although Aunt Li is generous to herself, getting along with her concubines is the most difficult. Maybe Aunt Li thinks that Chunniu should help cook and clean up at home, instead of running out with her in such a hurry.
But after all, that's not her own business, and Su Jinyao can't tell it, let alone chew the root of her tongue behind her back. What's more, Aunt Li is good to herself, and she can't talk about those family matters.
Walking all the way, Chunniu didn't notice Su Jinyao's thoughts at all, and she didn't think about going home to help. walked to the door of a family, and did not forget to remind Su Jinyao: "Jinyao, I heard you say you want to buy oil in the house just now?" It's definitely too late to go to Xiaopo outside the village now, isn't it just at the door of Chen's house, why don't you go in and buy some oil by the way? Or come back and buy it later? ”
Su Jinyao actually didn't know which one was the Chen family at all, and after listening to Chunniu's reminder, she nodded and said, "Well, since you passed by, let's buy it back." There is really no oil for stir-frying at home. ”
"Come, I'll help you hold the bamboo pole, you can go." Chun Niu said, putting down the basket in her hand while helping Su Jinyao put down the bamboo pole on her shoulder.
Su Jinyao pursed her lips and looked in the direction of her house, seeing that there was not much way left, so she said to Chunniu: "Chunniu, you can go back." I don't think it's getting early, so you better go back and help your sister-in-law clean up. Don't let your family wait for you. ”
Chun Niu was stunned when she heard Su Jinyao mention letting herself go back again, and seemed to understand what Su Jinyao meant. Immediately, his face was not so good, he seemed to be a little worried, and his eyes were full of grievances.
Su Jinyao looked at Chunniu's appearance, but she didn't understand whether she still had something to tell her, or she just didn't want to go back.
Su Jinyao had no choice but to say: "I didn't drive you away, you sent me, it's too late to thank you." It's just that I'm thinking that Aunt Li is going to cook the family's meals alone, and I'm afraid she won't be able to keep busy. ”
"Well, I know, it's because I'm shallow and don't think about it that much." After Chunniu finished speaking, she stood the two bamboo poles near a tree, put the basket away, and then said, "Then I'll go back." ”
"Let's go back, I'll come out with you when I'm free." Su Jinyao said, waving her hand at Chunniu.
Chun Niu smiled, looking a little reluctant. But he turned around and walked away.
After walking a few steps, Chunniu turned around again and said to Su Jinyao: "Jinyao, I'm not lazy, in fact, I usually help my sister-in-law with work." ”
Su Jinyao felt that Chun Niu didn't need to explain this to herself. Could it be that he repeatedly reminded her to go back to help, which made Chunniu think too much?
