Chapter 189: Somewhat Unfamiliar
Time always flies so fast, and in a blink of an eye, it is time to rest again, and early in the morning, Hua Luo took Yunchu's carriage and went to Shixiangzhai.
When Hua Luo came to the capital, he didn't go directly to Shi Xiangzhai, but walked around the street, so Yun Chu got out of the car with Hua Luo and walked side by side with Hua Luo on this ten-mile long street.
"Arlo, what do you need to buy?" Yun Chu asked in a voice.
"I'm just shopping around and don't have anything to buy."
Yun Chu moved his mouth and did not speak.
"That...... Yun Chu, we've been together for so long, does Lecturer Yun have any opinions on me? Hua Luo suddenly stopped, looked at Yun Chu and asked.
"No, my dad is very happy with you."
When Hua Luo heard this, a smile immediately appeared on his face, and he asked Yun Chu, "Really?" I thought that an old scholar like Lecturer Yun was very picky about his daughter-in-law! ”
"If he hears you say that, he'll definitely have an opinion about you. Or...... Go back and tell him what you said? ”
"Don't! I just said casually......" Hua Luo said and glanced at Yun Chu, and when she saw Yun Chu's appearance, she knew that Yun Chu was joking with her.
"Okay, Yun Chu, you actually lied to me!" Hua Luo stretched out her hand to hit Yun Chu as she spoke, but she never thought that her hand was held by Yun Chu.
Hua Luo wanted to withdraw her hand, but found that Yun Chu had pulled her hand tightly, and Yun Chu had no intention of letting go.
That's where so many people are watching on the street! A suspicious flush crept up on Hua Luo's fair face.
"Childe, Miss, have mercy on me! I haven't eaten in days......"
At this moment, an old woman in ragged clothes walked over with a cane and a broken bowl in her hand.
Hua Luo saw that the old woman was very pitiful, so she wanted to take out some broken silver from her sleeve and give it to the old woman, but Yun Chu stopped her.
"She has hands and feet but doesn't work, it's not a way to be lazy and lazy, if we help her, it's not good for her."
"But she's so pitiful, she must have a hard time."
"Ah Luo, you are simple by nature, and you don't understand the sinister nature of the rivers and lakes at all."
After Yun Chu finished speaking, he pulled Hua Luo and left, Hua Luo looked back at the old woman, I think the old woman is not like Yun Chu said.
Hua Luo glanced at Yun Chu again, and she suddenly found that such Yun Chu was a little unfamiliar.
Hua Luo moved his mouth to say something, but after several struggles, Hua Luo decided not to say anything.
"Arlo, sometimes it's not good for a person to be too kind."
Hua Luo was silent and did not answer Yun Chu's words.
Yun Chu saw that Hua Luo's face was not good, and he knew that Hua Luo was angry with him. Yun Chu didn't say anything, took Hua Luo's hand and walked towards Shi Xiangzhai.
After arriving at Shixiangzhai, Hua Luo was busy for a while and found an excuse to come out with some pastries, but Hua Luo had been haunted by that matter, so Hua Luo went back to the previous place to find the old woman, and Hua Luo found her nearby after looking for a long time.
At this time, the old woman was sitting against the corner of the wall, she looked ahead with her eyes blank, and at the moment when Hua Luo appeared, the old woman said weakly: "I am not a liar. ”
After speaking several times in a row, Hua Luo could hear what the old woman said.
Hua Luo handed the pastry in her hand to the old woman and said, "Here, these are for you to eat." ”
When the old woman saw that she had something to eat, she hurriedly took the pastry in Hua Luo's hand, opened the package, took out the pastry, and devoured it.
"Eat slowly!" Hua Luo saw that the old woman was eating quickly, so she said.
After a few pieces of pastry, the old woman looked up at Hua Luo and said, "The girl is really a kind person. ”
Hua Luo smiled: "Old man, what about your family?" Why are you alone here begging? ”
When the old woman heard this, her face became ugly, and she spoke for a long time: "Half a year ago, they were seriously ill and died. ”
Hua Luo knew how sad the old woman's heart was at this time, but unfortunately Yun Chu didn't know.
"Old woman, people cannot be resurrected from death, you mourn! Your loved ones are watching you from heaven! You have to survive so that they can rest assured. ”
Hua Luo said as she took out a silver ingot from her sleeve and handed it to the old woman and said, "Old woman, this is ten taels of silver, you take it back and live a good life, don't do it like this again." ”
The old woman did not take the silver from Hua Luo's hand, but said, "Girl, thank you for your kindness, I can't take this silver." That boy was right, I should find a job to do it. ”
"Old woman, what are you doing when you are so old? The son who was with me just now, he doesn't know how to be sophisticated, so don't take it to heart. ”
"You and that son were born in a rich and noble family at first glance, and they don't understand the suffering of the world at all, but I still understand." The old woman paused and said, "Thank you, girl, for the pastries." Yours is the best pastry I've ever had. ”
Hua Luo smiled when she heard this: "Thank you for the compliment, these pastries are all made by ourselves." ”
Hua Luo said and gave the silver ingot in his hand directly to the old woman and said, "Old woman, these ten taels of silver are nothing to us at all, so I hope you don't dislike it." ”
With that, Hua Luo left the place.
"Huh...... The girl ...... "When the old woman saw Hua Luo walking away, she wanted to get up and chase Hua Luo, but because the strength on her body had not eased up, the old woman watched Hua Luo leave.
If someone else saw so much silver in her hand, she would be ill-willed, and the old woman thought about it, so she put away the ten taels of silver.
At this time, two beggars came over with a few copper plates, and complained as they walked: "These people are really dead, and they have been given such a little bit for a long time." Alas, it's not enough for me to drink! ”
The beggar put the broken bowl on the ground and sat down against the wall, and the moment he sat down, he happened to see the pastry next to the old woman, and his eyes lit up: "Yohe, I really didn't expect that a beggar like us can afford to eat fragrant pastries, it's really amazing." ”
The beggar said, glancing at the old woman, and said, "Do you know how much silver you have to eat of this cake?" ”
The old woman shook her head, indicating that she did not know.
"I'll tell you! The people who can afford such pastries are either rich or expensive. Ordinary people like ordinary people can't afford such pastries, you know? The beggar said, glancing over the old woman's body, and asked, "The man who gave you the pastry just now must be a nobleman, so did he give you the silver?" ”
The old woman shook her head: "She gave this pastry and left." ”
"Alas, what a pity. You finally met one, and you don't know how to ask someone for silver. No wonder you didn't have anything to eat for three days when you were hungry! ”
"Brother, this pastry is so delicious." The other beggar had already reached out and took the pastry and ate it.
"Nonsense, Shixiangzhai's pastries are famous, of course they are delicious." The beggar took a piece of pastry and ate it, without paying any attention to the old woman.
The old woman watched the two beggars eating their pastries with relish, and opened her mouth to say something, but she felt that there was no need to tell them, so the old woman got up and left with her cane.
