Chang'an's home, not far from the suburbs of Beijing, is an old house.

The family relationship in Chang'an is quite complicated, his mother is also surnamed Liu, named Bamu, is a prostitute in the old fireworks alley, very debauched when she was young, and she was restrained when she was pregnant with a child, she saved a sum of silver, and ransomed herself by being pregnant, the old bustard didn't want to let go, but she made a good friend of the Eight Banners called Xiong Er, who was quite powerful, helped to speak, and the old bustard let her go. After coming out, he made a verbal agreement with Xiong Er to serve him for life and provide him with lustful desires, which shows that Liu Bamu is a bit beautiful.

The days are long and the days are short, and the days and nights change. Liu Bamu gave birth, it was a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, the daughter gave birth first, and when it came to the son, he worked hard to give birth. But later, she favored sons over daughters, and regarded men as brothers and daughters to support her sisters. On the day of production, the concubine Xiong Er was drunk and indulged, and came out of Fireworks Willow Lane and refused to get into the carriage, as long as he rode a horse. Drunk and smoky on the horse, who knew that he was thrown off the horse, trampled to death by the horse's hooves. Liu Bamu learned that he was grief-stricken and had nothing to rely on since then. Therefore, he sought his mother's house in order to rely on it. Who wants his mother's family to be cold, but scolds her* and refuses to take her in.

After that, Liu Bamu put the remaining silver in a few acres of thin fields, planning to guard the child to live a hard life. However, one day*, I can't enjoy Tule for life, the so-called enjoyment of life luxury, but also enjoy the criticism of others, the dog can't change eating after all, and do the work of prostitution and secret prostitute stealing people's husband. originally wanted to find someone to support intimately, so that the child could be named, but he couldn't find it after all.

The child is growing up day by day, and Liu Bamu's appearance is fading day by day, so in August of one year, she is full of desolation, and she gives the child a name at will after drinking, with her surname, and the man hopes that he will live a long life and be safe for life, so her son's name is Chang'an; The daughter is even more casual, born in August, the world is cold, and the autumn is far-reaching, so it is called August.

Liu Bamu had a bad background, so that his children grew up in the world and were laughed at. Naturally, Liu Bamu is frivolous and sophisticated, and in the daily life of teaching his children, he calculates everywhere and pleases him with his face. The so-called upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, so the daughter of the latter married the official profiteer surnamed Liu in August, and the son was embarrassed to be in trouble with him.

It is said that the reason why Liu August married someone surnamed Liu was, in the final analysis, planned and arranged by Liu Bamu. Liu Bamu believes that from now on, the children are all surnamed Liu, the son is useless, and the daughter is reliable, the daughter is raised, and the descendant is surnamed Liu. Moreover, the person surnamed Liu has a family background, is clever, and covets the beauty of August, but does not dislike her family background. Just marry the past, be small. So Liu Bamu borrowed to visit Liu August and threw the prepared poison into the main house of the person surnamed Liu, and Liu's wife died in vain. The person surnamed Liu knew that his wife's death was extraordinary, because he specialized in profiteers and thefts every day, and did not dare to report to the official, for fear that once the government investigated, he would be burned and burned, so he hastily buried it. Since then, the person surnamed Liu has been corrected in August.

Since the death of Liu's wife, the person surnamed Liu can be said to have a smooth business, the official road is smooth, the black and white have faces, and things are getting bigger and bigger. He felt that it was Liu August Wang's him, so he was getting better and better to her. It's just that her mother's family is from a low background, and she is not too popular. Later, the person surnamed Liu bought an old house in the suburbs of Beijing, where he lived for August's mother, and took care of her brother Chang'an, so that he could follow him in and out and start a business together.

Later, Mr. Guan's book case came out, and after a while, there was always no danger. Thanks to Chang'an, he helped him do a lot of things.

The person surnamed Liu also joked with Liu August in his private room: "* The person who raises is ruthless." How can I recruit you two brothers and sisters? So much so that I am. ”

Liu August was not ashamed, and pandered: "Since the master said so, he should be kind to my brother and treat me better." But the master should know that the black-hearted things are just one or two things, and the so-called walking too much at night will inevitably encounter snakes. Why don't we stop it as soon as possible, and we've made enough money, right? ”

The person surnamed Liu was not satisfied, and laughed and said, this matter is over.

It has only been a long time, and Liu August's words have been fulfilled, if you walk a lot at night, you will encounter poisonous snakes, and you will be retributed on yourself after all. Nowadays, inside and outside the family, which one is better? The elder brother was blinded in both eyes, and her husband's life was hanging by a thread, and he had a miscarriage and was infertile for life.

Mother Liu Bamu took back her children and son-in-law, and her tears did not stop.

Liu Bamu hates himself: Why is fate so unfair?

Weeping by the kang, his son Chang'an still heard it clearly, and said with blood and tears: "Who called you *!" Let's be * raised and don't end well! ”

Since Liu August came back, he has been stupid and stupid, and now he is reading to his brother's words: "We don't end well!" ”

Liu Bamu was heartbroken after hearing this, and sighed secretly: How could I give birth to such a pair of children in this life? What is the point of my life?

Liu Bamu sadly tore out a white silk and loudly wanted to hang himself by hanging himself. Fortunately, the few house slaves purchased by the person surnamed Liu before took pity on her and tried their best to stop her; As soon as she was rescued from the beam, she ran out of the patio yard to jump into the well.

At this moment, it is the middle of the night.

In the hospital.

Liu Bamu lay on the side of the well, looking up to the sky and crying, the house slave bowed down to support, and she couldn't beat the ground.

Just then, there was the sound of the hooves of a carriage outside. After a while, there was a knock on the door.

The house slave was secretly lucky, but fortunately, there was someone at this time, who could stop the lady from looking for shortcomings. After opening the door, I saw three people standing outside, the leader was extremely rich, dressed in a white velvet hat, wearing a bearskin black velvet cloak, wearing a sheath on his wrist, and holding a golden-bodied soup woman; There are two small servants standing behind him, one holding an umbrella to shield the master, and the other carrying a lantern. Behind it was a large carriage covered with brocade.

That is Zhuang Pu and his personal servant Wang Wu and Cai Tong.

The house slave didn't ask who Zhuang Pu was, so he just said quickly: "This master came just in time, help us." ”

Zhuang Pu looked angry and didn't say anything. Because he saw a few people standing in the courtyard surrounding a woman, the woman was wailing and crying, and he felt a little compassion.

The rich boy and Wang Wu behind him knew what Zhuang Pu was doing, so he wanted to open his mouth and make a sound, and as soon as his breath came out, Zhuang Pu raised his hand and signaled to stop his mouth.

The two closed their mouths and said nothing.

Zhuang Pu changed his anger and said with a smile: "I passed by here and saw that the lights were on here, and I wanted to come and ask for a basin of water for the horses to eat." Take a break and warm up. Don't know if it's convenient? ”

Zhuang Pu was informed according to the instructions of the servant surnamed Liu, looked for it, and saw that this house was as they depicted, so it was definitely the house of the mother-in-law of the person surnamed Liu. I was just angry, because of Mr. Guan's business. At this moment, when she saw that the woman was grieving, she must have died in it, so she turned her face and uttered such words.

When the slave heard Zhuang Pu say this, he said, "Yes, there are, but you can help us persuade our wife first." ”

Zhuang Pu said: "What's wrong with your wife?" ”

The house slave said sadly: "Mrs. has just hanged herself for a short time, and now she is going to jump into the well again." ”

Zhuang Puwei asked, "Why?" ”

The house slave was bent on saving people, but he didn't care about anything else, and said: "My girl and the master are seriously injured, and the doctor has come to see it, and said that there is salvation, and the silver is gone, and he said that he may not be able to save it." ”

After hearing this, Zhuang Pu hurriedly said: "Are you still alive?" ”

The house slave said: "There is still a breath of hanging." ”

Zhuang Pu was secretly happy in his heart: It's good if he doesn't die, the jade girl said that she wants to live her heart, and she just needs it.

So, Zhuang Pu nodded, meaning that he was willing to go in and help. The house slave hurriedly invited.

When they arrived in the courtyard, the rest of the house slaves saw that this strange guest was so valuable, and they all let go of the way.

Zhuang Pu was polite, bent over to support Liu Bamu's arm, and said softly: "It's snowing in this world, why is Mrs. lying here crying." It makes me feel uncomfortable for passers-by to look at it. Good words are good, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and bad things are only three dynasties, why should Mrs. be so sad and cry. I can't hurt my body. ”

Liu Bamu raised his teary eyes and looked at Zhuang Pu deeply. Although sad, I saw this person, my heart rippled, and I sighed silently: This person is very rich and handsome. couldn't help it, the cry stopped, and Zhuang Pu was ashamed and pitiful.

The corners of Zhuang Pu's mouth couldn't help but smile, and he sighed in his heart: There is such a frivolous woman!

Yes, but if this is the case, ordinary women can't avoid it, how can they let strangers reach out and whisper close to them? It can be seen that this is really a family, undoubtedly? Frivolous and dirty, wolf ambition.

Although Zhuang Pu thought so, his actions became more and more gentle.

There was another house slave in front of him, and he entered the hall all the way. When they came to the hall, the house slaves went down and brought charcoal stoves for them to keep warm.

Zhuang Puluo looked around the room, extremely clean, the decoration is not luxurious, it is also some foundation, the paintings on the wall are all handwritten by famous artists, the cabinet is displayed in the high pavilion, it is not jade and jade, it is fragrant wine jar, it is full of dazzling, the door curtain is also beaded agate, but the doors and windows in the house are not in tune, a full set of pink brocade cloth. Thinking that this house must be where her daughter lives.

Zhuang Pu asked pretendically, "Why is Madam so sad?" ”

Liu Bamu wiped away his tears, saluted each other with a little hand, and cried: "I am suffering from life!" The world is thin and cold, and it causes great disasters. This lord looks like a kind person, why can't he see me and go! ”

The voice and the breath were soft as silk, and if it weren't for her old age and decrepitness, it would have made people's hearts surge.

Zhuang Pu said: "Didn't I say it just now?" How can there be so many obscure things in the world? Just look at it and pass it. If you want me to say, if you can trust me, just tell me, and I can help you as much as I can. ”

Zhuang Pu thought that since there were three seriously injured people here, she must want to save them. It is best to lead her to ask for help, and immediately pull someone back to her home, and immediately dig into her heart to save Mr. Guan.

I saw that Liu Bamu sighed and said: "Since this master is so kind, the old woman is bold." I have a son and a son-in-law, who are dying, because they have been poisoned, and they are lying down and cannot live or die. Have pity on my widows, and have no substitute for them. Now, I want to go before them, and I have a sad story of a white-haired man sending a black-haired man. ”

Zhuang Pu pretended to be surprised and said, "Yo, did the lady report to the official?" ”

Liu Bamu said nervously: "I am a widow, where do I understand this, and I don't have a man from the main family." I was young and single-handedly pulled two children into adulthood. I hope that they will be safe and sound, live a long and long life, and celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival every year, and there will be August every year. ”

Doesn't this mean that she has children, her son is called Chang'an, and her daughter is called August? It was the mother-in-law surnamed Liu who went to the house!

Zhuang Pu sighed: "Then, I'll report for you!" "Pretend to get up, you really want to go. Liu Bamu's face was panicked, and he hurriedly came over to help Zhuang Pu.

Liu Bamu said: "Master, I can't help it!" Now it's all about saving people. Besides, I am a widow alone, and I don't know who is poisoning, and who I am looking for! Not to mention my weak ability, I'm really afraid of finding someone, I'm afraid of retaliation, what will I do in the future? ”

Zhuang Pu sighed: "Isn't that letting the vicious people get away with it? How is Madame confused? How can you not believe in the law of my court? ”

Liu Bamu shook his head, only in a sad expression. I knew in my heart that none of the people in the house could settle down. Previously, the person surnamed Liu suffered from it, and the servant of the Liu house said roughly, although she felt that Ma Pozi was deliberately murdered, but what her son and son-in-law have done over the years, she has seen it for all and knows the roots. Besides, no one has investigated the case of poisoning Liu's wife, and now he is really suing the official, isn't he throwing himself into the net?

When Zhuang Pu saw this, he also believed it, and said, "In my opinion, is Mrs. so good?" Let the horses outside beg for water to drink from you, and I'll ask for a favor to see how my brother's injuries are. I'll help you think about it. What do you think? ”

Liu Bamu is anxious to be polite, and he is very grateful.

For the rest, the house slave led Wang Wu and the rich boy to carry water and feed the horses.

Seeing them go out, Zhuang Puli let Liu Bamu. Liu Bamu was invited to the big guest room.

To the inside, the lights are bright, the furnishings are more luxurious and dazzling than the outside, the big kang bed is an extremely cold coarse tiger skin, and the corners are filled with fine-haired wolf velvet skin, no need to look elsewhere, just the kang head, there is no such device in his own house. Looking at it, there were three people on the kang, and the female was Liu's August, with a crazy and stupid face, sitting on the side.

Zhuang Pu secretly thought: I'm not afraid that she will recognize herself.

Liu August lowered his head behind him, lying down on his back, and the guess was good, one was surnamed Liu, and the other was Liu Changan. If you look closely, sure enough, the person surnamed Liu has a knife stuck in his head, Liu Changan's eyes are bloody, and his body is covered with a quilt, but he can't see if there are injuries on his body.

Liu Bamu motioned to the house slave to help Liu get off the kang in August, and repeatedly asked her to greet the guests.

Liu's August was stunned, staring at Zhuang Pu with teary eyes, sometimes laughing and sometimes crying, and he was not polite.

Liu Bamu felt rude, so he sighed: "She is my daughter, she is scared like this." I had a child in my belly, and I was scared. ”

Zhuang Pu's "oh" mouth shape, after all, was speechless, and he approached the kang side slightly. I heard Liu Changan's low voice humming and sighing.

Zhuang Pu was sure that the person was still alive, so he smiled and said to Liu Bamu: "Ouch, this is serious. ”

When Liu Bamu heard this, he cried so much that he couldn't straighten his waist.

Zhuang Pu said: "I know a miracle doctor who can rejuvenate with his hands. I heard that last year, I saved a family, and it was amazing. ”

Liu Bamu looked happy and immediately knelt down: "Ask the master for help." ”

Zhuang Pu let out a bad breath, sat on the edge of the kang with a relaxed heart, raised his hand and said to Liu Bamuyang: "Madam, please get up quickly." ”

Liu Bamu refused to get up, and still knelt and begged.

Zhuang Pu was embarrassed: "You are up, I will tell you." ”

In this way, Liu Bamu got up and beckoned the house slaves to hurry up and serve them with tea and water.

When the tea arrived, Zhuang Pu took a sip before swallowing it, and his throat was suddenly fragrant, and the aftertaste was endless. Because he said: "This tea is so fragrant." ”

Liu Bamu said: "It's a bold man, put a little musk." If you like it, I'll have it here, and I'll have it for you later. ”

Zhuang Pu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's so precious, how can I take it." Nowadays, it is rare to drink it for nothing. After finishing politely, he turned to the words: "I just said that the miracle doctor, his method of saving people is a little strange. ”

Liu Bamu wanted to ask where the strangeness was, but he suddenly heard Liu Changan on the kang make a * sound, an extremely painful tone. Several people glanced back.

I saw Liu Changan humming and sighing, and said, "Who is here?" How does this sound so familiar? Who is it? Mom, who is it? ”

Liu Bamu looked at Zhuang Pu apologetically and said, "Let you see the smile, he is confused." Then he said to his son: "It is a kind man who said that there is a miracle doctor who can save you." ”

Zhuang Pu didn't talk anymore, sighed and looked at Liu Changan, wanting to hear what he said again, but who knows, he snorted and sighed and stopped talking.

Liu Bamu pointed to the two and said, "This is my son, and the unconscious is my son-in-law." If you have a miracle doctor, please save them! ”

Zhuang Pu said: "I'm afraid you are reluctant to take risks." ”

Liu Bamu said: "It's all like this, what else can be in danger?" Please speak. ”

Zhuang Pu said: "Blindness can be cured, but can you see the sky and see the will of heaven." In the end, poke it like this, look, it's scary, you have to change your eyes. Well, if I don't save it, it's really hopeless. ”

These words made Liu Bamu tremble with fright, and he knelt down and begged again.
