20. People of two ways
She saw that it was not a big object outside the door, and there was no one around, so she picked up the small medicine jar at the door and turned back to the bedroom.
There was nothing wrong with the outside of the medicine jar, she opened it again and smelled it, there was a strong smell of wormwood, and some smoke, she was thinking about whether there was anything wrong with this medicine, and saw Bo Yi get up.
Bo Yi looked at her expression, took it and sniffed it, and said, "The little master is doing a lot with this mugwort leaf ointment, this thing is generally used to treat rheumatism or something." ”
"Isn't there anything special in this? I can't smell it either. Yu Yu was still not at ease, so he asked again.
Bo Yi knew what she was worried about, so she took it out with her fingers, wiped it on the back of her hand, sniffed it carefully, and said: "It's a plaster made by ordinary people, but the materials used are good, and the effect of healing injuries must be faster than ordinary ointment." ”
She covered the lid and handed it to Yu Yu, and asked with concern: "When did the little master buy it, is there any injury on his body?" ”
"I didn't buy it, a kind little lady on the other side gave it to me, it's not a new injury, or an old injury on my leg, you asked me to listen to the doctor's treatment earlier, I didn't listen, and then I drank medicine according to the law, and now I see it and I'm just doing a show." Yu Yu sat down and applied the plaster to his lap.
He said predictably: "The imperial doctor is under the emperor's orders, and I know that he will not be so kind, and may even harm me." So at that time, I didn't believe in Taiyi. ”
Bo Yi leaned to the side, nodded and said, "I see, the little master has suffered a lot of grievances in the palace. When the sky is fine tomorrow, I will go with the little master to thank the girl. ”
"That's nature." Yu Yu applied the plaster, felt that walking was no different from usual, and thanked this woman from the bottom of his heart.
Early the next morning, Bo Yi came in from outside, carrying some rouge pollen in her hand, Yu Yi was still curious where she went, it turned out that she was buying a thank you gift for others. Waiting for Yu Yu to dress neatly, the two of them entered the green building opposite.
Yu Yu is good-looking, dressed as a man is also handsome, I can't see the appearance of a woman, as soon as I enter the door, I am surrounded by girls, she is afraid that her identity will be exposed, so she asked the old mother where the girl upstairs is now, she gave the mother some broken silver, she took Yu Yu and Bo Yi walked several corners, and then slowly arrived at the door of a wing room.
There was laughter from inside, and Bo Yi opened the door and saw that the girl was lying in a man's arms, half-leaking on her shoulders, and still holding wine in her hand, she immediately closed the door, for fear that her little master would see this filthy scene.
After waiting for a while, the girl was neatly dressed, her eyes were still good-looking, clear as if there was spring water, and she said with a smile: "Why did Childe come to this fireworks and willow lane, don't stain your shoes." ”
Yu Yi lowered her voice a little and said, "The girl said that she was laughing, although it is Hualiu Lane, the girl's temperament is like an orchid, and it can't be said that it stained my shoes." Oh, thank you girl for the plaster sent yesterday, I ordered the little girl to buy some rouge pollen, and the girl will see if she likes it. ”
Bo Yi handed her the rouge pollen in her hand, Yu Yi knew in her mother's chatter that she was still in slavery, and the deed of sale had not been bought, she felt that a woman of such a character should not practice herself in a place of right and wrong, so she took out the deed of sale that she had just bought for her from her sleeve and handed it to her.
The girl took it, and she didn't know what it meant, but she explained, "I just bought back your deed of sale from that mother, and now that you are free, you don't have to laugh in such a pickled place." ”
When she heard this, she frowned, turned around and went back, and didn't say a word to Yu Yu again.
Yu Yi and Bo Yi were outside the door, not knowing whether to go in or not.
I heard waiting inside for a long time before a sentence came: "It's not good to talk outside, come in and sit down and talk." ”
The two of them entered this room, not like the decoration of the green building, but no different from the boudoir of the official lady, not messy, and orderly.
"I'm here, voluntarily. This deed of sale is the same for me. She said such a thing, which made Yu Yu feel a little incredulous.
"W-why?" Yu Yu asked hesitantly.
She lit the dresser and said, "My family used to practice medicine for generations, and then in this war era, I was sold here by my sister-in-law, and I have been living for a period of time and have suffered a lot. ”
"Now here, I don't have to do rough work, I just smile every day, just accompany the wine, earn more money, and I am also happy." She said again.
Yu Yi asked her heart in a word: "There are too many silver taels, and that family is gone, what's the use of asking for silver taels?" ”
"I'm used to being poor, not richer than my son's family, and I have eaten grass roots and bark when I was in the most difficult time, and picked up rotten vegetable leaves that roadside vegetable sellers don't want, so naturally I don't want to eat bitter at all. Yes, no amount of money is too much, but it is enough for me to have good clothes and food. She cleaned up and sat down on a stool to the side, unable to see the color on her face.
"I'm not more temperamental and graceful than Gongzi or an official woman, and even I'm a selfish person, maybe I think silver is too important to me, so the pickled land that Gongzi said is exactly where I make money."
For ordinary people, their food, clothing, housing and transportation for a year are the most important things in this life, not to mention the family and country, the war has subsided, and it is happiness to have warm tea and full food.
Yu Yi originally thought that she hated the dusty woman in Fireworks Willow Lane, but now that she heard what she said, she only felt pitiful in her heart, and she didn't know how to dissuade her.
She is the lady of this official family, even if the relatives in the family are dead, there is also the old department to help, if the unarmed people want to avenge their families, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky.
If some things don't happen to you, no one can empathize, and the only comforting words you say have become cool words in the hearts of the victims.
Bo Yi listened to these words, and she didn't say anything, she also became a dead soldier because of the money, but now it is different, she wants to protect Yu Yu.
The woman was about to return the deed of sale to Yu Yu, but she didn't take it, but said, "If you don't want to make people laugh in the future, then go to Gusu and I will naturally help you find a good livelihood to make a living." I took my leave. ”
After Yu Yi said this, he saluted her, then turned around and walked back to the inn with Bo Yi to get his bags, and on the way to the mountain, Bo Yi asked the question he wanted to ask just now: "Why didn't the little master tell her that there was any other way?" ”
"She's very smart and smart, I didn't say it, she didn't ask, we didn't find out." Yu Yu is a little sad, but he still has to face reality.
There don't seem to be many people who can go one way, and if you don't know it, you refuse.
