Chapter 8 Beauty wants to return, meet!
The next day, it was dim and the rooster crowed three or five loud noises. The girl's body shook slightly and woke up from her deep sleep.
The girl's eyes were still bloodshot. She looked at her mother anxiously, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her mother was still awake. She was worried about her mother's condition last night, so she took care of her carefully. It was not until midnight that she could not withstand the torture of sleepiness after confirming that her mother was asleep and fell asleep.
"I used up all the money at home, and even the most valuable father's weapons were sold. Where can I make money? My mother's illness can't be delayed!" The girl carefully covered her mother with a thick quilt, while sighing quietly.
After a while, it was not until the rooster crowed again for a long time that the girl slowly came to her senses. However, at this time, the girl's eyes were full of firmness, and she was all weak.
The girl went out, and her steps were light and graceful. As she stepped on her steps, she seemed to step out her white snow lotus marks, scattering crystal clear snow lotus seeds.
Outside the door is another world. This world is a hundred times more complex than a warm home and a hundred times more realistic than a warm home.
The girl walked on the few sidewalks in the morning, and her eyes swept across the recruitment notices on the walls of shops in the street from time to time. The girl had a good vision, and she could see some detailed and harsh words between a short distance.
"Recruiting inn servants requires smart and capable, hardworking, eye-catching, and eloquent. The monthly wage is 200 cents. As long as men! Women are free to talk!"
"Recruiting grocery shop servants requires smartness, good arithmetics, proficient in abacus, tall body, and strong strength. A monthly salary of 300 min. As long as men and women are not allowed to talk!"
“…”
"Recruiting embroidery workers requires excellent embroidery skills, quick eyes and quick hands, and those with experience are preferred. The monthly wage is 250 cents. Women are preferred."
The girl was not picky, and she knew she was not qualified to be picky, so she asked each family if she wanted someone, and went to visit each family for employment.
Inside the inn
"Go away, little girl, seeing that you are pretty, don't be a servant, so as not to cause trouble!" The inn shopkeeper said in a straightforward tone, and he was unceremonious to keep the girl out.
"Shopkeeper, please let me do this job. I can do it well. I will be careful and won't cause trouble!" The girl tried her best to defend herself with her white neck.
"Go and go!" Seeing the girl entangled, the shopkeeper did not give the girl any chance to talk too much, and shirked the responsibility to push the girl out of the store, and then closed the door with a slam.
Inside the grocery store
"You are so thin that you don't have two or three or two meats, and you still want to do dirty work in the grocery store? No, your strength is too poor!"
"Shopkeeper, I can..."
"Let's go!"
...
...
The girl knocked on the door and applied for the job with confidence again and again, but was ruthlessly turned away again and again. Her face became paler, with a hint of pathological redness, which made the flowers, insects, birds and beasts that could understand the innocent hearts became quarrels and restless.
Until the last family, the embroidery female worker who was most likely to succeed also declared a failure. She could have succeeded, but was still eliminated. She felt a little wronged, because this time she saw the beautiful woman in charge of recruiting the worker's shiny look as if she was looking at the rare treasure jade.
But a female embroidery worker who was a little disgusted in the simple eyes of the girl secretly said a heart-wrenching thing to the beautiful woman: Think about it carefully, this is a beauty embryo. Don’t hook the soul of your man away after it comes in. No matter how you look at it, they are all a little fox!
The girl was so angry that she argued a few words. But because of these rebuttals with great talent, the beautiful woman changed from appreciation to vigilance or even hostility.
...
The girl walked alone on the gradually crowded street. The lively street scene did not make her feel a trace of warmth, but instead a cold feeling that was full of coldness.
If you don’t find a job, you don’t have the money to continue buying medicine. If you don’t have the money to buy medicine, your mother’s illness will not be cured or even one day will fall apart. In the end, your mother, like her neighbor, Aunt Wang, can only wait silently until her body can’t stand the disease until she dies of illness.
"Ah, it hurts so much!" The girl felt her head hitting someone. She fell to the ground by being hit.
"Where did the slut from? Hey!!!" A sharp and feminine voice came from the mouth of the middle-aged man wearing brocade, but suddenly changed his tone.
The Flower and Bird Envoy Zhao Jie, and Emperor Ling of Han, sent one of the many Flower and Bird Envoys to the nine states in the world. The main task of the Flower and Bird Envoy was to go to various places to collect beauties from all over the world to serve as harems. After being selected by the eunuchs in the harem, they were either palace maids or recommended to Emperor Ling as concubines. In addition to the position of Flower and Bird Envoy, Zhao Jie also had a little kinship with the Central Inspector Zhao Zhong, and he could be regarded as a big man who could walk sideways in this small place.
In Zhao Jie's eyes, the girl in front of him was not beautiful. She looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, and her body was even a little thin and powerless. But it made him feel an indescribable temperament. The orchid in the valley is not! The little family's jasper is not. This temperament, even though he had been a flower and bird commander for more than ten years, he was used to seeing the beautiful women in the world and fighting for various situations. He was puzzled and had never seen it in any other person.
But this made him determined to let the girl in front of him enter the palace, no matter how much. Because he couldn't see the beauty of temperament. What kind of beauty of temperament was that?
The biggest difference between beauties and beauties is sometimes not about appearance, because the beauty of appearance has its limits. When beauty also reaches its limits, it is compared to the obsessive temperament.
Zhao Jie's face soon changed from an angry black face to a gentle and white one. He had no beard and was quite attractive when he smiled.
"What's your name, girl? I want to talk to you about some things, so why not go up to the inn and have a talk?"
The girl was stunned, her mouth slightly opened, as if she was surprised by the quickness of the middle-aged man's face-changing trick.
After a while, she said apologetically: Sorry, the folk girl still has important things to do, so she can't go with you!
Although she is simple, she is not stupid and cute. How could she be foolish and live alone with a man she had just met for a quarter of an hour. Who knows what would happen?
When Zhao Jie saw the girl refuse, he patted his forehead, as if he understood something. He apologized and said: It’s Zhao who is abrupt, why not do this? If you have something to do, you can ask me to help, Zhao has no choice.
Zhao Jie did not take out the imperial edict as impatiently as before and force the girl to take away because he did not want to get along with the girl. As smart as him, he naturally understood the meaning of the girl.
I thought the girl would politely refuse, but I never thought that the girl lowered her head and thought for a while, and suddenly raised her high-definition voice and said: Can you ask the sir to lend me a hundred taels of silver? Don't worry, I will repay you soon!
Zhao Jie was stunned, and then nodded: Of course.
There is no need to talk about the next thing in detail. How could a girl who was not well-informed in the world be the cunning opponent of Zhao Jie? He soon expressed his intentions and vaguely hinted that the emperor's orders were not to be done, and there was a great argument in the harem, which made the girl agree to the conditions for entering the palace.
Does the girl regret it? She doesn't regret it. She is willing to pay no matter how much the price she pays.
After three months, the girl made the only request. She had to keep her mother quietly for three months until she was confirmed that her mother was cured of illness before she would leave.
Zhao Jie did not urge him. Anyway, the girl was still young and had room for growth.
He doesn't care for three months, not to mention that he can find more beauties to offer to the Spirit Emperor within three months.
...
With money and medicine, my mother's illness improved day by day, and the smile on the girl's face was like the first winter passed, full of the lively beauty of youth.
Another day, the girl sang the cheerful song that was once deeply engraved in her mind, jumping to the street, preparing to buy some wood, chicken, carp, and stew for her mother to nourish her body.
After a few days of experience, Lujiabao gradually recovered from peace. Because he took care of his mother, he had no time to pay attention to other things. So the girl was a little aware of it. But she still knew that he was back.
When he left, he was only nine years old, and when he returned, he had become a man of great heights.
I heard that he killed more than 100 horse thieves by riding alone, which made the horse thieves who were outside Lujiabao feel devastated and were in panic all day long.
I heard that he drove away the young man in the blue shirt of the deputy castle lord who was notorious in Lujia Castle within seven days. He was recognized by the old man in the castle and became the new castle lord and stabilized his side!
I heard that after he came back, he summoned forty or fifty former playmates to teach them combat skills, martial arts and military strategies.
I heard...
However, he did not come to find her, perhaps he had forgotten it, and perhaps he did not leave a deep shadow at the beginning.
The girl did not deliberately look for him. She was leaving and went to a place that could not come out until she was old, a prison place for the best. Perhaps it was not wrong to call it a palace where everyone would worship.
"Since I'm leaving, I'm leaving! I want to leave freely, laugh happily, and jump around! I'm a girl!" The girl silently cheered herself up.
Walking in the bustling sea of people, the girl's mood is like a flawless lily, just like the fairy Yunchang, full of elegance and purity. The meaning of lily: A hundred years of harmony, one must be together for a hundred years, and one must work together for a hundred years, and one must live together for a hundred years. Who can live for a lifetime?
"I always want to see your smiling face, and I always want to hear your voice!" The girl hummed a familiar tone gently.
Lu Bu was wearing a white and simple mourning clothes, and was in a heavy and depressed mood. He had been mourning for his father for seven days. Lu Bu could not understand what kind of relationship the two of them had. When he was young, his father was superstitious and almost thought that he was a demon star from heaven. When he was born, he wanted to kill him, which made him gradually fear and alienate him. But as he grew up, his father never fulfilled his father's responsibilities and made up for what he owed him, and returned it to him a thousand times.
Nowadays, people die like a lamp that goes out, and some of the barriers of the past are like crystal lamps breaking to the ground, disappearing all of them. Only a faint sadness lingers in my heart, and it cannot be erased.
"Father, go all the way!" Lu Bu prayed thousands of times in his heart after paying homage to his father.
After leaving the door, this was the first time in seven days that Lu Bu breathed the fresh air from the outside world. He let out a sip of turbid air, and Lu Bu's mood slowly calmed down.
With a circle of twists and turns, Lu Bu walked very slowly. Looking at the still familiar grass and trees, the family and the two families, Lu Bu gradually forgot his recent unhappiness.
It was another corner, and he could vaguely hear the familiar songs. He frowned slightly and walked towards the other side of the corner.
He saw her, and she saw him. The two of them looked at each other silently.
