Volume 1 Luo Qi is full of spring in the city Chapter 37 Difficulties
Lin Jue looked around the hall and found that the layout here was like a small stage. Seven or eight square tables were placed in the hall, the east head was lightly curtained, a small table was placed on the ground, and a few futons were sprinkled around. There is a yaoqin on the small table, and on the wall next to the curtain are musical instruments such as pipa and sheng flute. A small piece of ground is also covered with a red carpet, which is supposed to be a place for singing and dancing to please the guests.
There was the sound of footsteps on the stairs, and Lin Jue turned his head to look, only to see a woman with fluffy temples and disheveled clothes walking down from the second floor with a tired face. The woman had a surprised look on her face when she saw someone sitting downstairs. But when she saw that it was a handsome young man, a bright smile suddenly appeared on the woman's face.
"Oh, there's a guest. Why didn't Mom say hello? It's rude to let this boy sit here alone. Childe, hurry up, come and sit in the slave's house. The slave family accompanies you to talk. ”
The woman twisted her waist and walked quickly, her red lips squirming, and her smile was full of enthusiasm.
Lan Niang, who was making tea, happened to come with a teacup, and when she saw this scene, she hurriedly put down the teacup and reprimanded: "Red sleeves, don't disturb Lin Gongzi, Lin Gongzi is a distinguished guest of Yingying." ”
The woman's face changed color and said, "Why? Why can you only be a guest of the warbler? Do you tell us to drink the northwest wind? Everything is only her, the top brand in her building, but if it weren't for her willfulness, how could Mochizuki Tower get to where it is today? Now there are so many birds every day, can we all starve to death? ”
Lan Niang crossed her arms and scolded: "What are you yelling at me? I can't tell you that. ”
Red Sleeves snorted coldly, and suddenly raised his voice and shouted upstairs: "Sisters, there is a guest coming, whoever rushes first will be counted." Come quickly. ”
After this voice, the second floor instantly became lively. The stairs rattled, and a dozen women, some unkempt, some wearing only pajamas, and some barefoot, rushed down the stairs in a swarm. In a moment, the warbler sounded, the swallows whispered, and the noise was endless. Lin Jue was instantly held by seven or eight hands, and his arms were surrounded in the middle.
"Childe go and sit in my room. I'm Gu Zhenzhen, keeping it makes my son happy. ”
"Or go to my room, I'm Liu Aiai. I'm only sixteen. ”
"I'm Lianlian......"
"I'm Fang Fang......"
"I am ......"
Lin Jue's body was swayed from side to side by them, and his clothes were about to be torn. I had to smile bitterly: "Ladies and gentlemen, don't be like this." Don't be like that. ”
Lu Wuqi's face was flushed, and he used his hands to peel off the hands that the women were holding on Lin Jue's body, but when he peeled off one, the other grabbed again, and it had no effect.
"Stop! Do you still have any rules? There was an angry shout on the stairs.
The noise subsided for a while, and everyone turned their heads to look, only to see Xie Dan standing there on the stairs with an angry face on his face. Behind her, a woman dressed in green stood. The woman had picturesque eyebrows, a well-proportioned body, and was very beautiful. Lin Jue recognized at a glance that the woman was the woman who set in the sunset, the number one of this Moon Tower, Xie Yingying.
"Are there any rules? What are you doing here? This Lin Gongzi is Yingying's honored guest, what are you making trouble? Xie Danhong scolded angrily as she slowly descended the stairs.
One of the women in the group lowered his head and let go of his hand. Xie Danhong is the bustard's mother in the building, and she is their mother, how dare they offend.
"Don't let me go back to my room yet." Xie Danhong shouted.
The women bowed their heads and left silently. However, the woman named Red Sleeves suddenly straightened her chest and said, "Mom." It's nothing that you usually eccentric warblers. The Qinglou industry is a generation of new people replacing the old. We are old, the guests don't love it, it's nothing, the warbler is in the right year, full of skills, people and beauty, we have no opinion at all to become the head of the Moon Tower. But our business is bleak now, and there are no more customers. It's easy to have a guest, and of course the sisters are going to come and grab it. Otherwise, wouldn't the sisters eat their old books every day and drink the northwest wind? ”
Xie Danhong slowly approached, stared at the red sleeves and said, "I knew that it was you who led the way." ”
Red Sleeves sneered: "That's right, I'm the leader." It's just a bite to eat. Obviously, my Moon Tower can do a good business, but some people are hypocritical and make everyone have nothing to eat. When I think of my old feelings, I can't find another way. However, if this continues, everyone will starve to death. Mom doesn't think about us, she should think about Mochizuki Tower. By someone's willfulness, the signboard of Mochizuki Tower will fall sooner or later. Mom always has to give us an explanation. We can't afford it, and we can see that in the past few years, if we don't save some money when we are old, we will not be able to go to the street to ask for food for the rest of our lives. ”
Xie Danhong bit her lip, her face was very ugly. There was silence all around, and all the women looked at Xie Danhong silently, and their faces were sad.
"Hey!" Xie Danhong sighed softly and said in a deep voice: "Red sleeves, you are also an old man in the building, and what you say naturally has your sense." The slave family is not pretending to be confused about this matter. Let's go back and discuss this matter, this Lin Gongzi is Yingying's life-saving benefactor. Some of you were present on the red boat that day, and in front of Lin Gongzi, we can't be rude. He didn't come to play, he just met him on the street and was invited by me. ”
Only then did several women on the boat that day have time to look at Lin Jue carefully, and only then did they recognize that it was indeed the son who saved people that day. Everyone panicked that day, and the young man who rescued people had his hair in a messy bun again, and he couldn't recognize it for a while.
Lin Jue sorted out the wrinkled clothes that were pulled, and arched his hand: "In Xia Lin Jue, the eldest sisters are polite, polite." ”
All the women returned the salute one after another. Red Sleeves walked upstairs quickly without saying a word, and a group of women also left, and in a moment people walked cleanly, the footsteps on the stairs disappeared, and silence returned to all around.
Xie Danhong stepped forward to salute Lin Jue, and said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, the sisters in the building disturbed Lin Gongzi." ”
Lin Jue smiled and said, "It's nothing. They didn't do anything to me. ”
While speaking, the green-clothed woman Xie Yingying came to the front, Ying Ying bowed down to Lin Jue and kowtowed, and said in a clear voice: "Slave Xie Yingying thanks Lin Gongzi for saving his life." Engong please be a slave and worship. ”
Lin Jue hurriedly returned the salute and said: "Don't be polite, girl, please get up, and torture me." ”
Xie Yingying still kowtowed before getting up. Xie Danhong said with a smile: "My family Yingying has been chattering every day during this time to thank Engong for saving his life, and today I finally got my wish." Yingying, you accompany Lin Gongzi to talk, and I will go upstairs to talk to Red Sleeves. Lan Niang, say hello to the side, put some snacks out to entertain Lin Gongzi. ”
Lan Niang answered, Xie Danhong blessed Lin Juefu and turned upstairs.
Under the guidance of Xie Yingying, Lin Jue sat in the screen next to the small stage, which faced the back courtyard window, and could also witness the whole stage and was the elegant seat in the hall.
Tea was served, snacks were placed, and the two sat down.
"Young Master Lin, please use tea." Xie Yingying persuaded diligently. "If it weren't for the son's rescue that day, Yingying would have died in Huangquan. After her body recovered, Yingying begged her mother to inquire about the identity of Engong so that she could thank Engong. But I haven't found it for more than half a month. But I didn't expect to meet Engong today, which is really providential. ”
"Why bother with it? Am I still alive and dead? No need to mention it again. Lin Jue said with a smile.
Xie Yingying sighed and said: "For the son, it is naturally a gesture, but for the slave family, it is a matter of life and death. ”
Lin Jue smiled: "Yes, the situation was indeed urgent that day. The girl was already holding her breath at that time, and one foot had actually stepped into the ghost gate. I had to save you by pressing your chest. Speaking of which...... That one...... I want to apologize to you. After all...... That approach is misleading. ”
Xie Yingying's face turned red, and she also heard about it afterwards, the person who saved her blew into her mouth mouth-to-mouth, and put her hand on her chest. Rubbing and pressing everywhere, the situation is really indecent, and I can't help but feel a little mustard. But when she saw Lin Jue for the first time just now, Xie Yingying felt much better. This is a handsome young man, not an ugly and obscene man, otherwise this psychological shadow will linger.
"Childe...... That's to save people, what is there to apologize for. In other words, this is the first time I have heard of this kind of life-saving Fanu family. Xie Yingying said in a low voice.
Lin Jue was also a little embarrassed, why did he mention this, which made the other party blush, and he was uncomfortable.
"That's ...... It is a way to get people back to breathing, and the person who is suspended in feigned death must get his breath back to heartbeat, or else he will really die. That's why we need to cross the air and pressure the heart. Not...... I can't say the specifics for a while. ”
"Oh......" Xie Yingying really didn't understand, so she could only answer.
Lin Jue and Xie Yingying are actually two strangers, and they don't have anything to talk about. After a few words, the atmosphere suddenly fell into an awkward silence, and there was nothing to talk about. Lin Jue took the tea and drank it, but he was not thirsty. All he thought about was drinking the cup of tea and getting up to say goodbye. Although he saved the woman's life, he did not expect anything in return.
"Lin Gongzi." Xie Yingying took the initiative to speak: "Lin Gongzi knows that I actually jumped into the lake by myself that day......"
Lin Jue was stunned and looked up at the beautiful woman sitting opposite.
"What does the girl mean that I shouldn't have saved you?" Lin Juedao.
"No, I regretted it when I jumped. I'm glad I survived. And I cherish life even more now. ”
Lin Jue nodded and smiled: "That's good." There is only one life, and it is the most precious thing in the world, so how can you give it up easily. But I don't know why the girl committed suicide by jumping into the lake that day? Is there anything you can't get over? ”
Xie Yingying sighed lightly and said, "The slave family doesn't know how to talk to the son. ”
Lin Jue smiled: "Don't pay attention to me, I just asked casually, I don't have any interest in other people's privacy." ”
Lin Jue lowered his head and drank tea, secretly blaming himself for being too talkative.
"Childe is the savior of the slave family, what can't the slave family say? It's just that I'm afraid of disturbing Childe's mood. Who would want to die if there were no intractable troubles? Xie Yingying looked at the flowers and trees outside the window and said quietly.
Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "There is no hurdle in the world that cannot be overcome. If you seek death when you encounter trouble, you are afraid that nine times out of ten, people in the world will die. There is hope in life. ”
"There is hope when you are alive......" Xie Yingying muttered a sentence, and suddenly looked at Lin Jue and said, "But...... What if it's hard to even live? So what to do? ”
Lin Jue frowned.
"Engong, if you don't think the slave family is verbose, the slave family will tell you the reason. Childe may be able to point out a clear path for the slave family. ”
Lin Jue blurted out that he wanted to refuse, but he retracted his refusal. In my previous life, I lived on the principle that more is better than less, but so what? It was a messy life, and there were no bright spots. In this life, if you want to make a difference, why not do more with less, and do the opposite. If you fall into the cowardly and fearful thinking again, I am afraid that you will repeat the mistakes of the past. Because this world is not just because you are far away from right and wrong, you can be alone, and right and wrong will run after you.
"Listen up. I may not be able to give you any advice, but if you are sorrowful, speaking out will at least make your heart feel more comfortable. Lin Jue said.
