Chapter 149: Thoughts
The shopkeeper's words attracted passers-by, and Mother Yang couldn't help but lift the curtain and look out. In her cognition, at the feet of the Son of Heaven in the capital, it is estimated that the people who ask for food are different from those in other places.
Qin Chu, who had been shopping for a long time, was a little tired, and was leaning against the wall of the car to close his eyes and recuperate, when he suddenly heard Yang's mother "Huh", and then opened his mouth to stop the carriage, and the person pushed the door and got out of the carriage.
Qin Chu hurriedly opened his eyes and went down with him.
"Xiaolan?" Mother Yang screamed uncertainly, until she met Yang's gaze and stepped forward in surprise: "Why are you here?" ”
"Auntie-" Yang Xiaolan pounced as if she had seen a savior.
"You...... How did you become the way you are? What about Zhenghui? I didn't have time to look for you when I was in a hurry to get out of the city that day......" Mother Yang looked people up and down, and found that they were not only wearing jackets, but also dirty and thin.
"It's a long story." Yang also got up from the ground.
"Yes, auntie, you don't know ......"
"Mother, why don't we go inside and talk." Qin Chu watched the three of them standing at the door of Qingyun Tower, and the shopkeeper on the side opened his mouth twice, so he had to open his mouth to remind.
"Yes, yes, it's cold outside, let's go inside." Mother Yang took Yang Xiaolan's hand, and several people walked inside.
"Give us a private room". Qin Chu opened his mouth and said to the shopkeeper on the side.
The shopkeeper glanced at Yang Xiaolan's mother and daughter, and the latter glared back quite angrily. The shopkeeper had no choice but to look away, and smiled and led a few people all the way to the second floor.
While waiting for the food to be served, Qin Chu knew what was going on, it turned out that not long after the four of them left the city that day, they were all robbed. Minghao was also seriously injured because of his theory with that group.
"How is Minghao now? Have you asked a doctor to take a look? Hearing that Yang Minghao was injured, Yang's mother asked worriedly.
"I can't eat, where can I have the money to hire a doctor? I can only bandage it briefly, but fortunately, the little brother is blessed with a big life."
At this time, the shopkeeper came in with two dishes, and was picked up by Yang Xiaolan in a hurry, as if she hadn't eaten for a few days, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, she first went to her bowl and ate quickly.
"Yes, Zhenghui is setting up a stall at the corner of the street to write for people, who knows that so many people rush to do this job, and sometimes they can't earn two pennies a day." While eating quickly, Yang did not forget to tell Yang's mother about their predicament.
"Sister-in-law, auntie, don't you eat this, right? I'll pack it up and take it away in a while, but the eldest brother and younger brother haven't eaten breakfast yet." Yang Xiaolan stuffed food in her mouth and said vaguely.
Qin Chu tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "The second sister and aunt can eat, and when you leave, I will bring a separate one for the eldest brother and younger brother."
"That's right, don't let them eat the rest of what we eat, and let Chu Chu order two more dishes for you to take away later." Mother Yang said, pushing the dish in front of her to the side of their mother and daughter.
"What to pack". Yang swallowed the mouthful of food in his mouth and glanced at his daughter unhappily: "When I meet your aunt, I see my relatives." Now that we don't even have a place to live, can she bear to watch us freeze to death outside? ”
"This ......"
Mother Yang was just about to speak, but was quickly interrupted by Yang again: "Brother and sister, you don't know, we are now crowded under the overpass with a large group of people, it doesn't matter if I am a bad old woman, but Xiaolan is a girl, Zhenghao is sick again, I ......"
Yang suddenly cried as he spoke: "I'm incapacitated as a mother, I'm sorry for the father ......of the dead child."
"Auntie, you can pity and pity us, it's cold and damp under the overpass, and I don't want to go back." After Yang's reminder, Yang Xiaolan also woke up, put down the chopsticks in her hand, and squatted beside Yang's mother to pray.
From the first glance, she knew that Qin Chu and Mother Yang's living conditions were many times better than theirs. There were several more servants alone, and carriages were used. Presumably, having a few more of them in the family is not a problem at all.
Mother Yang glanced at Qin Chu with a little embarrassment, not knowing how to refuse.
"You may not know, now my mother and I are also living at a friend's house, just lent us a little silver yesterday, if the eldest aunt and sister Xiaolan need it, I can lend you a little first, and it is convenient for you to find another place......
Hearing Qin Chu say that he was also living at a friend's house, Yang's first reaction was disbelief. Yang Zhengming is a big and small official. Qin Chu himself runs another shop, and he has a lot of money in his hands. Now that he said that the money was also borrowed from others, Yang didn't believe it anyway.
Yang Xiaolan is completely different from what Yang thinks. Before she was in Wansong Town, she knew that Qin Chu was good friends with Qin Ruixuan and the Guo family. Now when it comes to staying at a friend's house, it must be one of the two.
After experiencing this time, coupled with the fact that she has already seen the prosperity of the capital, she used to think that her eldest brother was a showman, and she was the sister of Xiucai, which was already amazing. Now......
Yang Xiaolan pursed her lips, and her brain was quickly thinking of countermeasures. Seeing Qin Chu's appearance, she didn't want their family to follow, but how could she miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. She's going to have to hold on to it anyway.
Thinking of this, Yang Xiaolan simply rolled her eyes and fainted directly.
"Xiaolan-" The Yang family on the side believed it to be true, and came over to check with an anxious expression, while quickly asking Qin Chu and them to find a doctor.
"If there is a carriage, let's send it to the hospital." Qin Chu frowned, looked at Ah Cheng opposite, and asked him to carry the person directly to the carriage.
Yang Xiaolan's clenched fingers tightened and tightened, but in order to successfully live in the Qin family or the Guo family, even if she was hugged by a strange man, she recognized it.
Qin Chu directly put down the silver and asked Zhang's mother to settle the bill later, and several people hurriedly went downstairs to send Yang Xiaolan to the hospital.
Fortunately, the medical hall is not far away, and the doctor said that there is nothing wrong with it, but some malnutrition will lead to physical collapse, as long as you meditate and recuperate for a period of time.
Qin Chu went to grab the medicine with the doctor, and Yang's mother waited uneasily, and at this moment only Yang Xiaolan and her mother Yang were left in the inner room.
"Niang......" felt safe, so Yang Xiaolan quietly opened her eyes and looked at Yang.
"You can be regarded as awake, do you know that your mother is going to be ...... by you"
"Shhhh
Next, Yang Xiaolan said her plan again: "I see that I am about to be seventeen years old, so I have to find a good in-law to help my eldest brother and younger brother." There is no other way these days...... The Qin family and the Guo family, as long as I can live in, I will definitely find a way to stay, mother, you must help me......"
"I'll help, don't worry, my mother will help." Yang couldn't help but feel that Yang Xiaolan's idea was good. Since it was inconvenient for their family to live in the past, then Xiaolan was the only one, presumably they should not refuse again.
"Sister-in-law, how is Xiaolan, have you woken up?" When Yang's mother's voice came, the two women in the room were immediately silenced, and Yang Xiaolan immediately closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.
"Brother and sister...... As soon as Yang spoke, his voice was already crying: "Xiaolan, this child's life is miserable, and a girl suffers with my useless mother." Even if you want food, a big girl is still being looked down upon all day long......"
Seeing that Yang's mother didn't answer, Yang was a little anxious, so he simply went straight to the point and said: "Zhengming's daughter-in-law is right, but this is not something that can be found immediately, and now Xiaolan looks like this, even if your sister-in-law begs you, you can tell Chu Chu, can you let Xiaolan join you first, and when you settle down, I will take her back." ”
"Where is this what sister-in-law said, let Xiaolan be with us first, and then talk about it when we find a house."
By the time Qin Chu came back, the two had already decided on the matter. Even if you want to say no, it's too late.
"In that case, when Sister Xiaolan wakes up, go back to Qin's house with me first." Qin Chu said and handed the medicine prescribed by the doctor to Ah Cheng, and said to the mother-in-law sent by Qin Ruixuan, and after Yang Xiaolan woke up, he brought the people back to the Qin Mansion together.
"Yo, it's true that our Qin family is a shelter camp. I just came to the door yesterday, and I got another one today." The third lady of the Qin family had just been deflated by the old lady Qin in the upper room, and she was not happy in her heart, so she happened to have a face-to-face with Qin Chu and a few people who came back.
didn't wait for anyone to go far, and said sarcastically in a voice that was not suppressed at all.
"Don't you have anything else on your mind, do you?" A mother-in-law beside Mrs. Qin San answered meaningfully.
"Cut~" Mrs. Qin San sneered extremely contemptuously, narrowed her eyes and said, "Just because they are also worthy?" ”
Yang Xiaolan's face was feverish when she was robbed by the two, and she subconsciously looked at Qin Chu and shrunk her neck aggrievedly.
"Mother, you take Xiaolan back to Ruiyunxuan first, and I'll report to Old Madam Qin." After all, it's a guest at someone's house, so it's better to explain.
Mother Yang nodded. There was something uncomfortable in my heart. It was she who made the decision to let Xiaolan come with her, but now Qin Chu, who is involved, is being talked about.
Watching a few people walk away, Qin Chu turned around and walked to Mrs. Qin's side with a step. He saluted the other party with a non-standard gesture, and when he saw the other party glancing at him disdainfully, he smiled indifferently and said, "I look at my wife's face, it seems that there is something on my mind?" ”
"Presumptuous!" The mother-in-law beside Mrs. Qin raised her eyebrows and said, "Does the little lady understand the rules?" When will our lady's affairs need you to talk more?! ”
Mrs. Qin San didn't stop her, but waited for her to finish before she said slowly: "Why should Mother Wang blame her, she should be treated more from the countryside."
"Yes". Wang Ma nodded yes.
Qin Chu didn't care, and continued to speak: "Don't get me wrong, madam, I'm just an ancestral craft, I can see a little face, I see that Madame is frowning, and boldly guesses, but because of the matter of Master Qin San?" ”
