Chapter 175: Dongmei Girl
Several people stared at each other, Gui's mother really couldn't imagine that Miss Dongmei would buy a living person back, in her impression, although Miss Dongmei often pretended to be indifferent, but in fact her heart was as fragile as a child. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
She knew Miss Dongmei very well, and remembered that day after getting drunk.
Mother Gui shook her head violently, threw out the cranky thoughts in her head, and looked at Su Xiaoqi who didn't know where to open for a while, she was good at dancing with long sleeves, and she also had a day when she was short of words.
Mother Gui laughed self-deprecatingly, and Su Xiaoqi's slightly hoarse voice came from her ears, "Where is Miss Dongmei?"
When Miss Dongmei left, Su Xiaoqi had heard someone call her name, in fact, with his ear, he could hear most of the voices outside the secret room very clearly.
At the mention of Miss Dongmei, Gui's mother's eyes suddenly became sad, and she said abruptly, "It's dead." β
Su Xiaoqi's eyes were suddenly a little dazed, how could a person with a good sense suddenly die?
"Are you trying to ask how she died?"
Su Xiaoqi was waiting for her to continue, and it could be seen that Gui's mother was holding back a lot of things in her heart that were difficult to solve, and he was also very accurate in seeing people.
Before she spoke, Gui's mother waved her hand and drove out the six people who had slammed the door, and looked around the house, but could not find a place to sit, she knew that Miss Dongmei had built a secret room, but it was the first time she had come to this room.
"It's been about three years. Gui's mother exhaled a breath of turbidity lightly, and recalled: "That day, the door of Baihualou had just opened, and I was squatting outside the door brushing my teeth, and Dongmei suddenly stood in front of me to enter Baihualou to make a living. β
Gui's mother paused, smiled at Su Xiaoqi, and said, "You may not know that when you enter this industry, most of you use your body to exchange money because you can't live poorly."
There are also those who were sold in by their parents, and of course there are those who are forced to become prostitutes, but there is no such thing as Dongmei girl. β
Su Xiaoqi immediately asked, "What is her situation?"
"She?" The picture of that day was already clear in Gui's mother's mind, and she said: "On that day, she was wearing a fox fur and carrying a silk bag full of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and she looked like a young lady who came out to play in the mountains and rivers and painted when she was interested. β
Su Xiaoqi's heart felt uncomfortable for no reason.
"I chased her a few times, but she was determined to come to Baihualou. Speaking of this, Gui's mother felt that her heart was very good.
"You drove her away, afraid that she came here with her family in anger, right?
In the end, I'm afraid of getting into trouble. Su Xiaoqi saw through the essence of Gui's mother at a glance.
Mother Gui smiled awkwardly, and then listened to Su Xiaoqi continue: "You go on." β
Mother Gui didn't say anything, but looked at Su Xiaoqi twice, she found that Su Xiaoqi had a special temperament, and she could take the initiative in the conversation between the two without showing her face, and only people who were strong enough in their hearts could have this performance.
"Entering this door, the girl who picks up the guest for the first time will always have a strong resistance in her heart, Dongmei is different, she entered the guest's house without twisting, but when she left the room, she came out crying, that was the first time she cried, and it was the last time. The more Gui's mother spoke, the more sad she became.
Su Xiaoqi lamented: "Why did she do this......
"She's for one person. Mother Gui's eyes shone with hatred.
"Who?"
Mother Gui gritted her teeth and said word by word: "Fan Wenhuai." β
"How do you talk about it?"
Gui's mother said hatefully: "Once, Dongmei was indeed a young lady, but there was an accident, she went out with her parents to visit relatives and met a bandit, the second elder was killed, she could not escape the thieves' poisonous hands, fortunately, there was a noodle seller who saved her, and that person was Fan Wenhuai." β
Su Xiaoqi was listening quietly.
Dongmei later returned home, but the family business was occupied by her uncle, and a girl's family had the strength to resist, she was kicked out of the house and taken in by Fan Wenhuai. Gui's mother sighed for a long time: "Since then, the two have lived together, although the life is poor, but Dongmei does not feel difficult, until one day, Fan Wenhuai's mother who has been bedridden all the year round passed away......"
Su Xiaoqi said: "All the changes started after that day?"
Gui's mother should be, "The death of his mother deeply touched Fan Wenhuai, and he didn't want the poor people in the world to heal their relatives because of the lack of silver, and watched their loved ones die like him."
He knew very well that his mother had been dragged from a minor illness to a major illness, and that if he had been treated at the beginning of the illness, his mother would not have died.
Fan Wenhuai, who lives in self-blame all day long, made up his mind that he wanted to study medicine.
However, without going to Vientiane Academy, let alone a little bit of silver, can he really learn the medical skills he wants?"
Su Xiaoqi didn't understand that his head was too confused at this time, and said, "Miss Dongmei went to Baihualou just to make up enough money for him to study medicine?"
Mother Gui nodded sadly and said, "The day before Dongmei came, Fan Wenhuai sold the family's broken grass house and bought a fox fur for Dongmei. That was the first time he paid for Dongmei's clothes, and since Dongmei followed her, she wore the old clothes that Fan Wenhuai's mother wore when she was young. β
"I heard it in this room, Fan Wenhuai is now a great doctor. Su Xiaoqi paused and said, "She's waiting for Fan Wenhuai to redeem her?"
Fan Wenhuai had promised her. Mother Gui sighed, "Dongmei is too naΓ―ve, once a man doesn't care about the innocence of a woman's body, then his heart will be completely broken, how can such a person be trusted?"
She secretly handed over the money she received every month to Fan Wenhuai, and she was afraid that Fan Wenhuai would be hurt by studying medical skills, so she bought yellow-lipped fish to replenish his body
The fish was ready, but she could only send someone to send it, and she didn't dare to step into Baolin Hall for half a step, for fear that it would attract gossip and damage Fan Wenhuai's reputation.
She sat in front of the window every day and looked out of the building, waiting for Fan Wenhuai to redeem her, but she had never seen Fan Wenhuai's figure appear outside the building.
The more famous she is in Qinglou, the higher the ransom will be, Dongmei thinks that Fan Wenhuai gets very little money for saving people and treating people, and even can't make ends meet, she is very worried, she is afraid that Fan Wenhuai will never be able to make enough money to ransom her. β
Mother Gui's eyes widened suddenly, and she roared angrily: "Fan Wenhuai really can't make up enough money to redeem her, how can Fan Wenhuai, who never thought of redeeming her, have enough money one day?"
The man who came to Baihualou wanted to enter Dongmei's room, let alone ask for dozens of taels of gold, how could Fan Wenhuai want to lose this money?!"
Su Xiaoqi's eyes gradually became cold.
"She thought about Fan Wen everywhere, but in the end she died in Baolin Hall and was scolded, Fan Wenhuai once defended her?" Gui's mother couldn't stop sobbing.
Su Xiaoqi said in a deep voice: "How did Miss Dongmei die?"
"Take poison. β
"Why?"
Gui's mother sighed: "Maybe she doesn't believe Fan Wenhuai's words anymore and wants to die with him, but she is the only one who dies." β
"I see. Su Xiaoqi took out the white jade cigarette pouch from the treasure bag, stuffed the tobacco leaves and lit it, spit out a long puff of choking smoke, and walked out the door.
"Where are you going?" Gui's mother called Su Xiaoqi.
Su Xiaoqi turned around and showed a creepy smile to Mother Gui.
"Go kill someone!"
