Chapter 36: Brother-in-law


Liu Siyuan walked over with his daughter, holding a money bag in his hand, he saluted Yuan Luo solemnly, and then offered the money bag in his hand.
"I just counted the silver coins, and I got a total of eight and two silver coins tonight. The copper coins have been replaced with broken silver in the shop next door, and now half of them are given to the girl."
"No, I am not short of money." Yuan Luo smiled.
"The girl is high-minded, and I know that you are not short of money, but I can't greedy the girl's share of ink because the girl is not short of money." Liu Siyuan said solemnly.
Yuan Luo really looked at this person differently this time, so he stopped rejecting and said with a smile: "Thank you Uncle Liu."
"I should be thankful to the girl. The girl taught people how to fish and gave a way to make money."
"Uncle Liu, this way of making money is not a long-term method." Gu Yi couldn't help but raise a point.
"Ha, the major general need not worry, I can save it, just use it to save some money to tide over the difficulties."
Gu Yi saw that Liu Siyuan had a good idea, so he didn't say more.
Liu Shu'er stepped forward and reluctantly handed the small purse up. Her family was poor these days, and she finally saw so much money.
Yuan Luo raised her hand to take it, and Liu Shuer felt her hand lighten, and her heart became more and more disappointed.
Looking at Yuan Luo, she couldn't help being curious. She raised her hand and lifted Yuan Luo's hat, "Sister Li, there are no outsiders here, why do you keep wearing the hat...ah!"
She screamed and backed away again and again, startled by the huge scar on Yuan Luo's face.
Yuan Luo put down the veil and said plainly: "It's just my personal hobby."
The movement between the two was too fast, even Liu Siyuan did not see Yuan Luo's face clearly, but realized that her daughter was acting improperly, so he stepped forward and hit her on the back, "How can you offend Miss Li, an impolite girl? ."
Gu Yi frowned, clasped his fist and said, "It's over, Uncle Liu, let's go first."
The three people said goodbye and left.
Liu Siyuan slapped Liu Shu'er severely, "You stupid, Miss Li looks like a noble person, she even dared to move her hands."
Liu Shu'er regretted it, and then became aggrieved. "The distinguished person can take half of our silver. Those are the kites that I and Dad made up these days and nights. It is also the two young generals who are vociferously. She just speaks. ."
"You!" Liu Siyuan became angry. "How can you be a stupid thing to know the preciousness of a smart person like Miss Li."
Liu Shu'er stopped talking, but she was still not convinced, but she was a little relieved when she thought of the face she saw. What an intelligent person, that face is neither human nor ghost. I was worried that General Gu would be with her. What's the matter, but looking at that face, I know that I am worried.
Walking on the road, Yuan Luo squeezed the small silver bag in her hand. This was the first real pot of gold after she traveled into this world!
She smiled and said: "You just said that the money came from gambling, and you feel uneasy. It's better to use the money to do something good to make up for this uneasiness."
"How to make up?"
Yuan Luo pointed to the restaurant in front of him, "For example, doing good destiny in this restaurant."
The three of them looked at each other and smiled, and immediately went over and discussed with the store to buy meat steamed buns with these four taels of silver, which will be given to those in need for free in the next ten days. Nowadays, rich people pray for their children or sick family members, and they often do such good deeds.
Restaurants are also used to taking such orders. Cai Yunheng was bargaining with the owner of the restaurant to discuss the quantity and scope of distribution of steamed buns.
Yuan Luo and Gu Yi went out first.
On the other side of the street, it seems that a family is hosting a wedding banquet, and there is a hustle and bustle. There are bright red happy characters on the door and the street market. This folk custom is somewhat similar to later generations.
The person hosting the wedding banquet should have a lot of money, and the scarlet letters still carry shiny gold foil. In just a short time, Yuan Luo saw several children approaching the scarlet letters and wanted to scrape some gold foil off. The gold leaf of this era is not the bright color of later generations, it is all painted with solid gold powder. But they were all driven away by the patrolling home Ding.
Yuan Luo curiously stood on tiptoes and looked around. It was a pity that at night, the sedan chair and the bride could not be seen, only the lively sound of guests drinking, mixed with the tune of theatrical troupe singing and dancing, noisy and messy.
The side of the street becomes quieter and quieter.
"I'm sorry." In this lively and quiet atmosphere, Gu Yi suddenly spoke.
Yuan Luo was startled.
"Liu Shuer was too rude just now."
"It doesn't matter, the little girl's curiosity." Yuan Luo smiled. She could feel that Liu Shu'er was a little hostile to herself, and she didn't know if it was because of the four taels of silver, or because of Gu Yi, or both. But she really didn't care, the gap between the two was too big, neither was a person of the same world.
"The appearance is external, just appearance. Pink skulls are no different." Gu Yi said sincerely.
"Ha, which high monk is here to save sentient beings."
Gu Yi also laughed. He stared at Yuan Luo: "Actually, the trauma of the appearance can be repaired. In the future, I will definitely help the empress to restore her appearance."
Yuan Luo trembled slightly, "You...Forget it, I don't really care about this." Anyway, she didn't really disfigured.
"I know, it's just my wishful thinking." Gu Yi replied.
auzw.com Yuan Luo was taken aback. This term seems to be used inappropriately. What wishful thinking. Looking up at him, under the moonlight, the young man's eyes were focused and warm.
Yuan Luo's heartbeat speeded up a bit. In the original book, Gu Yizhen once found an unparalleled elixir for a disfigured woman and restored her beautiful appearance. It was Queen Wei, his heroine.
Now he made this promise to myself...
I shouldn't have these messy thoughts, stop, this kid is only fourteen years old, he is still a minor! ! !
Yuan Luo shouted in her heart, but still couldn't help her cheeks become hot.
Probably in order to divert this embarrassing atmosphere, Yuan Luo could only say something. She racked her brains and turned her gaze to the source of the noise.
"It's really lively that the family organizes the happy event. It takes up half of the street. It must be a big family."
"Married the daughter of a family, naturally it will be more lively."
"The daughter of a family?"
"Yeah, I heard that the woman is the prostitute of the Lu family in Hedong, and she is also regarded as one of the best gateways in Beijing, so naturally it will be more lively." Gu Yi said flatly.
It is rare to see him paying attention to these weddings and funerals. Yuan Luo was surprised: "Do you know this family?"
"It's a acquaintance." Gu Yi continued to speak, with a sense of coldness and hoarseness in the background sound of gongs and drums.
"Every time I walk down this street, I remember that when I was young, my father and I liked eating the dim sum at this restaurant. My sister often bought it and took it home. Even after we got married, it was because the family she married with Gu's residence is close, and he often returns smoothly with snacks..."
Yuan Luo was stunned. It was not far from Gu's mansion and also close to her brother-in-law's house...
She couldn't help but aroused an unbelievable thought, "This family who is doing a happy event, is it..."
Gu Yi smiled ironically: "It's my ex-brother-in-law."
Yuan Luo looked at the bustling mansion in shock. What a coincidence!
Speaking of it, the former brother-in-law of Gu Yi, Yuan Luo sent Jin Linsi to investigate, was a talent promoted during the time of Emperor Xianning. He came from a poor background, but with outstanding talents and extraordinary knowledge. Now that he can marry a daughter of a family, it is obvious that he has become a stubborn dog.
The suppression of the Han Dang by the clan family is not only in direct suppression, but also in various ways to draw and divide.
Rather than carrying heavy pressure and opposing so many giants of the family's clan, one inadvertently was singled out for a small mistake, rushed to kill, and relied on the clan to eat some leftovers, but it was a safer choice, especially in the Xianning emperor. When the backer died and the party had no successor.
However, this bowl of rice is not so delicious. There are advantages and disadvantages. Although it is stable and can guarantee income from droughts and floods, the family clan who has worked in this life is your benefactor. If you don’t say your effectiveness in officialdom, even if you become a member of the party in the future, In front of the benefactor's children and grandchildren, all have to obey the gift of the disciple, and future children and grandchildren will remember this kindness. Not a servant, it's almost the same.
The gongs and drums in his ears were particularly harsh, and Yuan Luo couldn't help but dig his ears, "This kind of ungrateful guy, you might as well sneak him with a cloth bag."
"Ha, let's forget it first, I dare not see him." Gu Yi had a clear tone, but what he said was murderous. "I'm afraid that if I see him, I can't help but kill him."
Yuan Luo blurted out, "This way you will go to jail." Uh, how did you say the sentence of the rule of law society.
Gu Yi chuckled, "Yes, there are still people waiting to catch me, but I can't leave them a chance."
"Anyway, revenge is such a thing, don't worry." He looked into the dark night sky, the lively people with bright lights and laughter, and deep darkness condensed in his eyes, like an abyss. It is urgent to swallow this excitement. .
Yuan Luo felt complicated. She remembered the original book. There was a passage. After a few years, the family who had expelled her sister, Gu Yi, who was returned to the capital, made an excuse to exile in southern Xinjiang.
In this life, the feud seems to be deeper. I'm afraid it's going to be slaughtered all over, don't keep the chickens and dogs.
Having been with Gu Yi for a long time, the boy appeared calm and gentle in front of her. The image of the decisive boy described in the original book has long gone, but it reappears at this moment.
Yuan Luo looked at Gu Yi Xiaosuo's expression and wanted to say something, but felt weak. After thinking about it, she suddenly said, "Open your mouth."
Gu Yi was stunned, and reflexively followed Yuan Luo's order.
Seeing Yuan Luo raising his hand, a small thing was stuffed into his mouth.
It's sweet and cool.
"When the mood is too bitter, eat something sweet." Yuan Luo said warmly. On the street before, she bought some snacks.
Gu Yi pressed the tip of his tongue against the hard candy, feeling the sweet fragrance diffuse, and smiled: "Thank you, Niang Niang for the reward."
"That's right, don't be bitter, what has happened is irreversible, people always have to look forward." Yuan Luo explained, "Actually, your life is still very long and you are always immersed in hatred. Not a good thing."
"I know that I won't let myself be immersed in hatred forever. My father taught us before that a man should stand up in the world and he should make a contribution. But hatred is like a dark cloud. If you can't get rid of it, how can you see the bright moon." Gu Yi's expression Restored calm. He understands that hatred cannot be regarded as the whole of life, but now, hatred is indeed all of his life.
He also looked forward to the moment when these obscure things melted under the sun, he would be relieved from now on, happily enmity, and walk towards a new life.
Gu Yi's eyes fell on her, and the haze in her eyes dissipated, gradually warming. It was the person next to him that gave him such hope, surrounded by a dark cloud.
He has the confidence to hold up all the pressure and persist until the day when the clouds are cleared.
This life is too bitter, only you are sweet as honey.
