009 Same bed, different dreams
In an instant, Zheng Peng suddenly felt an incomparable sense of shame, Lu Shu only had one steamed bun left, it should be left at noon that he was reluctant to eat, and when he heard that he was hungry, he gave it all to himself without saying a word, and lied afterwards that he had eaten it, and he didn't think to share it with Lu Shu before eating.
This little girl is really good and kind.
Zheng Peng looked at Lu Shu who pretended to be nothing, his mouth opened, and finally he didn't say anything, and returned to the house as if he was fine.
"Young master, you're back, the slave family will make your bed." Seeing Zheng Peng coming back, Lu Shu's eyes lit up, and she immediately said with a smile on her face.
If it weren't for the fact that he peeked at the window just now when he saw Lu Shu picking up steamed buns to eat, Zheng Peng really couldn't see how hungry this little girl was.
"Well, let's shop." Zheng Peng also pretended to be casual and said.
There are some things, it's better to pretend to be confused, it's useless to say it beautifully now, it's better to keep this thought in your heart and make up for it later.
After a night of speech, Zheng Peng woke up early the next morning, to be precise, hungry.
Lu Shu got up earlier than Zheng Peng, and saw the young master get up and bring over the water and acacia branches that had been prepared in the morning.
In ancient times, there was no toothpaste, and the most expensive was to use green salt, and ordinary people used soft branches to clean their teeth, such as willow branches, acacia branches, kudzu vines, etc., Zheng Peng used green salt when he was in Yuancheng, and now when he arrived in Guixiang County, the conditions were not good, so he could only settle down.
The two of them finished grooming, and then went to look for work together, to be precise, to find food.
"Steamed cakes, big and meaty steamed cakes, a top filling"
"Hu cake, freshly baked Hu cake, fragrant and crispy Hu cake, make sure you eat one and want two."
"Mutton soup, fragrant and thick mutton soup, a bowl only costs three cents, and a big bone stick with meat is also given."
I drooled when I smelled those fragrances, and then listened to those shopkeepers shouting, and I only felt more hungry.
I ate a small steamed bun last night, and I didn't eat anything in the morning, Zheng Peng's stomach was already grumbling with hunger, no, smelling those freshly baked Hu cakes that were still glossing with oil, not only was he a little unable to take a step, but he swallowed it in his throat without arguing.
It is no exaggeration to say that when passing by the door of a large family just now, when he saw a big yellow dog eating leftovers with meat and bones, Zheng Peng actually had a shameful idea of wanting to grab food.
Seeing Zheng Peng's hungry appearance, Lu Shu felt a little sad, hesitated, and whispered, "Young Master"
"Huh?"
"Otherwise, you can sell Lushu so that you don't have to starve." Lu Shu said with red eyes.
Zheng Peng has never said his origin, Lu Shu, as a maidservant, is not easy to ask anything, she saw her young master, brightly dressed but there was no small guy around, she came to a strange small county town alone, did not join relatives or visit friends, even if she repaired the broken house, she had to take the clothes as a thing, guessing that her young master might have committed an accident or be kicked out of the house.
Most of the money is spent on himself, he has no "intentions" for himself, and he rarely lets himself serve on weekdays, feeling that he is redundant, and his heart is sour, so he thinks about letting Zheng Peng sell himself, and if he sells it, he will have money, and the rich young master will not starve.
Zheng Peng saw that Lu Shu's eyes were a little red, and her beautiful big eyes were filled with tears, and he said with a resolute face: "What are you selling, you are the maid of this young master, it is rare to find such a beautiful little maid, she will not sell it if she is killed, and never mention it in the future, otherwise she will beat your ass." ”
Lu Shuqiao's face flushed, a little shy and full of gratitude, she gently lowered her head and said softly: "Lu Shu is the young master's person, young master... You can do whatever you want. ”
It is said that Lori has three good: clear voice, soft body, easy to push down, looking at Lu Shu's gentle appearance, Zheng Peng's heart was pounding, but he quickly put aside his distracting thoughts.
It's still too small, and now it's still a budding flower bone, Zheng Peng likes beautiful women, but it's really not as special as a spicy hand destroying flowers.
"Young master, why don't you go and order something to eat."
said that it was to beg, but in fact, it was to beg, her own young master couldn't lose this face, Lu Shu gritted her teeth, ready to ask for food, there was only one thought in her heart, that is, to take care of her young master, when she used to wander around with her father, she went to find well-wishers to ask for food.
"No, it's not that time yet." Zheng Peng immediately stopped it.
A little setback, bow to life, once this breath is discharged, life will be difficult in the future.
I still want to make a lot of money, and I will ride a crane to Yangzhou with tens of millions of dollars, if I can't even overcome this difficulty, it's empty talk to say.
Lu Shu replied with an "um", and didn't dare to speak again.
Zheng Peng said confidently: "It's okay, the two of us have hands and feet, and I'm afraid that we won't be able to find a bite to eat, let's go, let's find a job to make ends meet." ”
"I'm sorry, two, the shop has enough people, please."
"Please? I can see this little shop at a glance, where do I need to hire people?"
"This son is well-dressed, his hands are not calloused, he must be the son of a rich family, so don't tease the little one."
"Go aside, don't get in the way of Lao Tzu's business."
"Odd jobs? Okay, if you can carry this bag, you need someone. ”
If you want to have no strength, you have no capital, you just want to do a part-time job and no one invites you, some speak politely, politely refuse, and some are cynical and even drive people directly, Guixiang County is actually not big, Zheng Peng and Lu Shu turned for nearly an hour, and they didn't find a job or food.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Zheng Peng's stomach was so hungry that he was about to stick to his back.
Zheng Peng finally realized a truth, money is not everything, but no money is absolutely impossible, a penny can force a hero to death, he is a human being, and he is so hungry that his stomach growls.
It is said that the word "work" is difficult to get ahead, if you want to make a lot of money, it is best to start your own business, Zheng Peng did not think about making a fortune, but in the end he vetoed it.
A person's life is inseparable from food and clothing, as long as you do this type of business with your heart, you will definitely not be hungry, but this kind of business has a bad place, most of it is a large investment, slow results, not to mention that you have no capital, even if you have capital, it is difficult to compete with those time-honored brands that have been open for many years.
The problem is that Zheng Peng does not have a mature wine-making process, and it is too late to make wine, and it is too late to make wine, and then the wine-making needs to use grain, and it needs to be reported to the government, and it can be brewed with the consent of the government.
Perfume making, carpentry, pan pits, etc., either the time cycle is long, or there is no capital, or there is no technology.
Your sister, Zheng Peng shook his head a little depressedly, thinking about what he was doing so much, the most important thing now is to fill his stomach.
After turning around and not finding it, Zheng Peng gritted his teeth and didn't look for it anymore, went home, and asked Lu Shu to take a newly bought quilt as a bed, and bought a few steamed buns for 20 yuan to satisfy hunger, can't you starve to death?
The pawnshop is really dark, the new quilt bought by fifty wen, I only slept for two nights, and it is still brand new.
After a day of tossing, Zheng Peng was also tired, and as soon as night fell, he climbed into a simple bed made of bricks and stones, ready to sleep.
Just wanted to sleep, suddenly wanted to Lushu, turned his head to see what she was doing, and saw her walking to the small bed in the corner, the quilt was taken away, and a piece of clothing was ready to be used as a quilt cover, it is already late autumn, and Zheng Peng feels a little cold when he covers the thin quilt at night, how can he do without a quilt?
"Midori"
"Young Master, do you want to drink water?" Lu Shu heard Zheng Peng speak, sat up with a bone, and asked softly.
"The autumn wind is cold, how can you do without a quilt, come here and squeeze it."
When Lu Shu heard this, she immediately shook her head and said: "How can slaves and maids sleep together, my father said that the young and the old are orderly, and the master and servant are different, young master, you sleep, Lu Shu is not cold." ”
Datang is a class society, there is a difference between respect and inferiority, if your own young master wants to make his own bed, then it is another matter, now it is because of the cold squeezing of the master's bed, how can a slave be on an equal footing with the master?
Zheng Peng didn't bother to say anything about the principle that everyone is equal, and said in a commanding tone: "Let you sleep together, that's for fear that you will get sick, if you are sick, who will serve Young Master Ben, maybe I will serve you, hurry up, don't bother." ”
As soon as the attitude was tough, Lu Shu shrank her head, and she didn't dare to say anything, so she answered with an "um", and then climbed into Zheng Peng's bed lightly.
got into bed, carefully pulled a corner of the quilt next to Zheng Peng and fell asleep, the hazy night just covered the blush on Lu Shuqiao's face.
After Lu Shu went to bed, she subconsciously kept her distance from Zheng Peng, and moved the quilt on it to Yang Zhen's side, just holding a small corner, tired herself like a kitten.
"Cold, get closer, both of you are more ambiguous." As Zheng Peng spoke, he leaned sideways and put one hand on Lu Shu's shoulder, and the other hand put the quilt on Lu Shu's body.
"Young master, I'm not cold......"
Zheng Peng said lightly: "Don't talk, sleep." ”
Although the weather was a little cold, Lu Shu felt that her little face was a little hot, the two were master and servant, but this was the first time that Lu Shu slept in the same pit with a man, and she was still hugged by her own young master to sleep, which made Lu Shu have a flustered and nervous feeling, and her little heart was like a deer bouncing around constantly, and her body was a little stiff.
The ancients matured early, and Lu Shu had some hazy understanding of the things between men and women, for fear that his young master would make further moves, and then he didn't know whether to acquiesce or refuse.
Fortunately, Zheng Peng just hugged him gently, and did not make any further moves, as if he was very tired, and soon remained motionless, as if he was asleep.
Seeing that the young master did not make any further movements, Lu Shu also slowly relaxed, and even secretly opened his eyes to peek at Zheng Peng's good-looking face, maybe it was because he was too tired this day, Lu Shu felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and slowly fell asleep.
For some reason, Lu Shu had a feeling in her heart: the young master was holding his hand very strongly, and the smell on his body was also very special and good.......
