Chapter 27: See the Emperor's List - The Verdict on Su Xiang

After dawn, Bao Lu washed up and changed into the clothes that Mama had found in her old clothes with a little fresh color, and simmered vegetable porridge on a small stove so that Mama could get up and have a hot mouth, and then Bao Lu went out.

Although I didn't feel inferior because of my current embarrassment, I still felt a little hot on my face when Baolu knocked on the door of a slightly solid family and faced the eyes of others looking up and down. But when he took the full burden that they handed over and needed to be cleaned, Baolu felt extremely happy.

After receiving the business, Bao Lu hurriedly ran home, thinking that he wanted to wash it out and dry it as soon as possible while the sun was good, so that he could return the payment to the master's family.

At the beginning, Baolv could find one or two households to do business every day, and the income was only dozens of people to cope with the daily living expenses of his grandmother and himself; Later, gradually, with a clever head and a little experience in the overall work of the previous life, Baolu began to pull the customer circle a little bigger, accumulated a group of regular customers, arranged the daily workload to be full, and the income began to increase.

"Girl, come and rest, you've been tired all day today."

Her body was gradually getting better, and Mama Zhao, who was able to move freely, was helping to clean up the dried clothes and bedding in the yard, and saw Bao Lu, who was sweating finely, coming back from the river with a basin of freshly washed clothes, and hurriedly took the basin down.

"I'm not tired!" Bao Lu stretched his waist pole, squatted by the river and washed for most of the day, and he was a little sore.

Seeing that the clothes in the yard were all taken away by Mama, neatly folded to the side, Baolu was a little distressed and put Mama on the chair and sat down, and said coquettishly: "Mama, how many times have I told you?" You can wait for me to come back to do these things, your body will be fine, and the doctor has explained that you should recuperate more and not be tired. Why is it disobedient? ”

Mama was a little funny and helpless by Baolu pressed herself to the chair, pulled Baolu to sit beside her, and said with a smile: "I listen, I listen to you!" It's a big deal, I'm not tired, grandma, you don't let me do this, you don't let me do it, do you want me to lie on the bed and get moldy? ”

"It's yourself," Mama touched the little hands that were soaked in water all day and became no longer delicate day after day, and complained distressedly: "It's so hard every day, a big girl like a flower and jade can't dress herself well, look at what your hands have become?" This set of clothes on my body is picked up and others don't want, I don't even dare to buy a good set of clothes, it's my old wife who is dragging you down......"

Bao Lu saw that Mama was about to start wiping her tears again, and hurried up to coax: "What did Mama say?" Why should I spend money on clothes? Look at this on me, where is this that others don't want, that's the former Miss Zhang Dahu who can't wear it because she is fat, and she gave it to me when she sees that I have a good figure and is beautiful! With such good materials and workmanship, you can't buy it in the garment store outside! ”

"Look! You see! After speaking, Bao Lu pinched the corner of her skirt and spread it in front of her grandmother, and took her hand to let her touch the orchid embroidered on it.

"You girl!" Mama burst into tears and laughed, knowing in her heart that this girl was comforting herself by turning a corner! Such a sensible and capable girl is so accommodating and filial to her wife, no wonder the mother-in-law of the Zhu family came to the door to talk to herself, that is, she took a fancy to Baolu and wanted to ask her back to be her daughter-in-law.

Thinking of this, Mama stroked a few strands of hair next to Bao Lu's ears as lovingly as her own granddaughter, and said to Bao Lu in a long tone: "Bao girl, have you thought about what Mama told you a few days ago?" ”

'Oh my god! It's a blind date again! Bao Lu grimaced in her heart, since the last time an old sister-in-law chatted with her grandmother for a long time, she has lived a caring experience of 'lifelong events' every once in a while.

In fact, his body is only a little more than 17 years old this year, and he was alarmist by several elders and couldn't marry an old girl at a level (although in ancient times this flower season age was indeed considered a late marriage), and what was even more excessive was that he had to go to see the man's treasure green twice, and he came back with his body upside down......

No wonder she! In Mama's opinion, who is now worthy of status and status, and does not dislike their weak family background and no dowry, and the man has a stable and high-income job, is either a butcher with blood stains all the year round, or a weak teacher who has no hands to tie the chicken!

Bao Lu repeatedly said that he had no intention of disliking each other, but imagined that he was really married to one of them and lived a life of flesh and foam or nothing...... Shivered, but forget it. Now it's very good to live a well-fed and warmed life with Mama and Mama, and there is no need to add someone in.

"Mama, I remember, the Zhang family said that they would send things back this afternoon, I have to leave quickly!" Bao Lu found an excuse, turned around and quickly wrapped a bag of clothes, and ran away with the wind under his feet.

"Huh" It wasn't until he ran out ......of the alley that Baolu slowed down and exhaled deeply.

'Looks like I've been exercising well lately, and I'm getting smoother and smoother. The complacent Bao Lu carried her baggage and walked leisurely towards the market, and the crowd in front of her successfully attracted her attention.

In this era, there is no XX daily, evening newspaper, no news broadcast, and no various revelations from the media, and the fastest way to know about national events or new things is the notice wall set up everywhere in the city (or the mouth of a gossipy backyard woman - this sentence was added by Baolu himself).

A notice wall in front of it was surrounded by people on several sides, and they were talking about something in full swing. Bao Lu leaned over, wanting to see what was new today, and went back to talk to Mama.

"Check it out! I know that Prime Minister Su is not a good person, he is a hypocrisy who is honest and honest on weekdays, and he is said to be treason against the enemy! An old man with long beard and crane hair who looked like a scholar pointed to the notice.

"Which Prime Minister Su is there?" An unknown stranger asked.

"The Prime Minister Su who is going to marry General Xiao's family in early spring this year!" One of the people who knew some details gossiped and explained: "You don't know, the two young masters and young ladies were arrested by the emperor sent by the palace guards on the day they got married, that scene is terrifying to death!" ”

"Treason? That's a capital offense! "Someone in the crowd was gossiping.

"Isn't that a capital offense?" The person who must have seen it that day quickly replied: "I was given a cup of poisoned wine and died that day!" I heard that the emperor was merciful and asked people to find a place for him to be buried, otherwise it stands to reason that the corpses should be fed to the dogs! ”

"That's it, that's it!"

"Our banner country has been stable for a few years, and we don't want our people to have a good life!"

"Sure enough, it's still my emperor's kindness!"

......

Bao Lu sadly listened to the condemnation of Su Xiang who had become ancient, and knew in his heart that Su Xiang had been murdered, but he couldn't argue for him. What can you justify with these ignorant people? The emperor's list in front of him clearly wrote Su Xiang's charges, and there were also the seals of the emperor and the six departments on it, even if he was hoarse and tried his best to quarrel here, he couldn't get back the life of the righteous and virtuous and steady Master Su.
