Chapter 117: The Gentleman
Of course Liu Ming didn't notice it, but he liked to chat with Hong Su very much, Qing'er was too stupid to talk to him at a point, as for Shi Ju, he still forgot it, and he was either a bastard or a stinky Liu Ming.
Yan Ran doesn't like to talk, and others are always flattering him, although they are respecting him, they keep a certain distance from him.
"Miss Hongsu, why do you call yourself a "slave" instead of "me"? ”
"Because my mother said that this kind of guest is more liked, don't you like slaves like this, son."
Hong Su frowned slightly, she didn't know what was wrong with the word "slave".
"It's nothing, I just hope that Miss Hongsu doesn't have to go out of her way to please others, just be herself."
Hong Su smiled bitterly: "Thank you, Childe, the slave understands, but the slave's life is to please others, and it can't be changed." ”
And Hong Su's smile is really bitter.
As soon as Liu Ming thought about the industry that Hongsu was engaged in, he knew that he had lost his words, the woman in the Qinglou seemed to be beautiful, but there was as much sadness as there was scenery.
They are always inferior and confined to the attic, and Hongsu has never been to Hongluo Mountain.
Hong Su is an abandoned baby, but this is good, it is better than drowning.
There are also many abandoned babies in this way, and they can't afford to raise children, and they find that they are born with baby girls, so they are abandoned, and some will be sold directly to people.
When the baby girls were raised until they were five or six years old, they would notify the bustards, or the housekeepers of the provinces, and let them pick people.
This is how Hong Su was taken away by her mother and became the reserve of the Qinglou.
There will always be some left, and they will have to take care of their younger sisters, and they will also have to work, and when they are fifteen or sixteen years old, they will sell them to bachelors who really can't find a daughter-in-law.
They don't seem to be human, they're commodities that can be measured.
That's why ancient times weren't good, it was one group of people who were exploiting another group of people.
It's not a third-rate romance, and there won't be any domineering prince falling in love with a brainless ugly village girl, but it's more of endless darkness.
"That girl Hongsu really likes this, and keeps trying to please others."
Hong Su said helplessly: "The slave doesn't know, he just follows everything his mother teaches to please others." ”
Liu Ming wanted to say that you don't need to do this at all, but he couldn't say it.
"What is the girl Hongsu going to do in the future, she can't please others for the rest of her life."
"In the future? The slave doesn't know, there is a sister who has found a man who has done her duty after redeeming herself, and after redeeming herself, she continues to do the same thing as her mother, and there are also concubines who have been ransomed, and my sister Yue has entered Liufu, but there has been no news of her for a long time, son, do you know Sister Yue? ”
This question made Liu Ming a little embarrassed, he really couldn't remember, and he and Liu Wen actually went to the same house, which was a bit disgusting.
"Qing'er, is there an aunt surnamed Yue in the house? How I don't remember. ”
I reminded the young master and said, "Young master, of course there is, but it seems that he died last year, and there was a big disturbance at that time, and in the end it is said that it was the maid who poisoned the master because she was disgruntled." ”
As soon as Qing'er said this, Liu Ming remembered, and he also knew who the real murderer was, and the half bottle of poison was also well hidden by him.
Hong Su lamented: "No wonder the news was cut off like this, the slave's piano skills were taught slowly by Sister Yue at the beginning, and I didn't expect the world to be unpredictable." ”
Liu Ming sympathizes with her, but why are there so many poor people in this world.
Liu Ming said with relief: "It is precisely because the world is unpredictable that we should work harder to live, and we must laugh, I heard that the luck of girls who love to laugh will not be bad." ”
Hong Su reluctantly smiled and said, "Thank you, Childe, the slave is much better, I'm sorry to let Childe see the scene of the slave's gaffe." ”
"It's okay, Miss Hongsu, you're revealing your true feelings."
"Childe, I want to listen to the slave play a song."
"Of course I can."
This song is about mourning, thinking of the deceased.
When a song ends, people will also leave, and life is sometimes like this song, telling endless sorrow.
"Miss Hongsu, you played very well, and even tickled my heart."
After listening to this, Liu Ming began to feel sad, and he was also reminiscing about the past, recalling that the gentle woman let him integrate into the world little by little, but in the end he left painfully.
"Childe will also have sad things?"
"Because we all have hearts, and there are things in our hearts that make us happy, and naturally there will be things that make people extremely uncomfortable."
Liu Ming explained, but he still didn't want to say it, after all, it was the first time he and Hong Su had met, and it was impossible to dig out his heart and lungs as soon as he came up.
Su Hong sighed with emotion: "Nu really wants to talk to Gongzi like this all the time, it feels really relaxed, just like with friends."
And I feel that Childe is very special, Childe looks at me very cleanly, and there is no such annoying feeling. ”
It's because Liu Ming treats her as a human being, doesn't despise Hongsu because of her profession, and communicates on an equal footing.
"Maybe it's because I'm a gentleman."
Hong Su also smiled and said, "Childe is really a gentleman. ”
I watched the young master and that Hong Su chat for so long, I finished eating a few pastries on the table, and thought that it was getting dark, so I urged the young master to leave.
I heard that women are hostile to their beautiful people, and I don't know if it's true or not.
I'm not jealous, but I hope that the young master will go back as soon as possible, so that we can watch the fireworks of the Lantern Festival together.
"Young Master, when are we going back? It's getting dark. ”
"I'll talk a little later."
"But young master, the princess will worry about us."
The reason why I mention Wang Po is because sometimes the young master is afraid of her.
To be precise, Liu Ming respects Wang Po, not fear, that old man has paid a lot for him.
"Childe, it seems that the slave and you only have the next time."
Hong Su didn't ask Liu Ming to stay, and sometimes let go, but it was to hold on tighter.
Hong Su is not an uninteresting person, on the contrary, Hong Su is sure that Liu Ming will come to see her, hoping to be a person.
"That Miss Hongsu, we'll say goodbye, and we'll talk next time."
Soon after Liu Ming left, the old bustard asked how it was?
Hong Su smiled and said, "Liu Gongzi is a gentleman, a very interesting weirdo, and a good person, we talked a lot. ”
The old bustard was stunned for a moment, and admonished: "Xiao Hongsu, don't touch your true feelings, men are not good things, just like cats, they are hungry for our bodies."
Wait, you said his surname is Liu? ”
"Well, mom yes."
The old bustard asked excitedly: "Then does he know our Dong'an's romance?" ”
"Yes, it's his big brother."
The old bustard said a little fanatically: "Then the next time he comes, tell him about it, ask his eldest brother to come to us, we can be free, as long as we write a review, and the fame goes up, the money will naturally be more." ”
Hong Su shook her head, knowing that her mother was a little obsessed with money.
"Mom, I'm afraid this won't happen."
"Ah, why, aren't they brothers?"
Hong Su smiled lightly and said, "Because the slave said that Liu Gongzi is a gentleman." ”
