Beauty has a disease

Chapter 30

Dongfeng night puts flowers and trees.It blows down and the stars are like rain.BMW engraved cars on the road.The phoenix flute sounded, the jade pot turned light, and the fish and dragon danced overnight.

The poetry festival and the lantern festival will be held together to make the scene even more lively.

Although Dengxianlou and Langtingxuan were the hosts of this poetry meeting, all merchants participated, so even though the sky had not yet set in Youshi, it began to be lively. In the sea of ​​people.

All kinds of lanterns are decorated in various colors, but the red lights and orange fire still account for the vast majority, lighting up the night and warming people's hearts.

Ember and Duan Qingrong strolled along the street along the flow of people. The hawkers took this opportunity to set up stalls on the street, yelling cheerfully and loudly, offering everything from eating, drinking, to playing, to having fun. Many people passed by, and they were also caught by the crowd. A lot of people pass by, come and go, come and go, stop and go, either eagerly or happily or plainly talking, and the children are running happily holding a windmill, laughing and laughing, it is the world of fireworks.

"what do you want to eat?"

Ember was still dressed as she was when she was at the house, she had nothing to clean up, at this moment she took the facial mask that Duan Qingrong bought and played with it in her hands, fiddled with the mask's tether, turning it around and around, subconsciously The movements also seem to be fun and never get tired of it.

Coming out of the mansion, Yu Jin brought out the three maids, distributed some money to each of them and told them to go shopping by themselves.Lian Ying and Lian Shuang were fine, but the little girl Yuan Yue was very happy, bouncing around with an excited look on her face.

Hearing Duan Qingrong's inquiry at this time, Ember turned his head to look at both sides, and asked casually, "Have you ever eaten from a food stall?"

Duan Qingrong is also physically weak, but unlike her weakness, she is the result of her living environment and her own choices, while Duan Qingrong is a weak disease brought out from her mother's womb. She is really weak and weak since childhood, so Duan Qingrong has always been raised very Fine, that is to say, my health has gradually improved in recent years. I no longer need to take medicine all day long, and I can even go out to socialize.

According to Duan Fu's details, Duan Qingrong has never eaten this kind of roadside stall.

Sure enough, Duan Qingrong shook his head and said, "No."

"Little sister has eaten?"

"nature."

Thinking of Yu Jin's previous living environment, Duan Qingrong suddenly asked a stupid question.

"Then... is there anything delicious?"

Although Ember never mentioned it, let alone complained, but he couldn't act as if nothing had happened. He wanted to try to understand the past of the little sister, and wanted to taste the food that the little sister ate. If there is a chance, he would like to go to Check it out.

"There are a lot of delicious food." Ember replied with a smile, "To be honest, compared to delicacies from mountains and seas, I prefer home-cooked food from roadside stalls. I'm not used to those sought-after delicacies."

"Like?"

"For example, a tea shop on the street, a bowl of rough tea can relieve fatigue, a plate of pickles in the morning, and a bowl of porridge, and occasionally a bowl of noodles, a bowl of wonton, and a few snacks and pastries. It is also a good thing. "

Although the two of them are sons of dragons and phoenixes, they are about the same age, even though Yu Jin is taller among women, Duan Qingrong is almost a head taller than Yu Jin.

Duan Qingrong looked down at Ember smiling as he narrated, and felt a sudden ache in his heart.Comparing the food he ate, all of them were cooked strictly and finely, and what he ate was the delicacies of mountains and seas that Ember said he was not used to. He never imagined that there would be such a big gap between people of the same background.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Ember raised her head and smiled, directly expressing Duan Qingrong's thoughts: "It's because I thought my life was difficult and I suffered."

"Actually not, compared to you, I live more freely.

"Eating is actually a choice. I can afford roadside stalls and delicacies from mountains and seas. It's just that I'm not used to it, that's all."

"Maybe my brother has eaten as many delicacies as I do."

Ember turned around, raised her finger to a wonton stall opposite, and asked with a smile, "Brother, do you want regular wontons? I haven't been out shopping in Beijing for a long time, and I haven't eaten snacks in Beijing, so I don't know how it tastes. Brother, why don't you accompany me to taste it?"

Duan Qingrong was silent for a moment, and then slowly burst into a smile, that smile, like a breeze blowing on the face, was extremely gentle.

He nodded and said softly, "Okay."

"Boss, here are two bowls of wontons, one big and the other small."

"Okay! Girl, wait a moment."

Ember skillfully ordered the food, took Duan Qingrong to find an empty table and sat down, and asked him what else he needed, Duan Qingrong shook his head.

He looked left and right, and the diners sitting in the small stalls were wearing coarse clothes, and some were dressed as scholars. They should be scholars who came from other places, but the only ones wearing satin brocade clothes were him and Ember.

Because of the different dresses and outstanding appearance of the two, they naturally attracted all kinds of attention, Ember didn't feel it, and Duan Qingrong was not used to being awkward all over, but he tried his best to imply that he would ignore these after seeing Ember's performance.

"Little sister, can you tell my brother about you?"

Duan Qingrong's sentence is to divert his attention, and it is also a kind of temptation.

Ember raised her eyebrows slightly, she naturally understood what Duan Qingrong was thinking, so she asked back: "What do you want to hear, brother?"

She doesn't have the habit of sharing, because she feels that only she cares about her own affairs, and it's just a waste of her own saliva to speak out, and even become a conversation piece with others.Your good life may be envied and envied by others, and your bad life may be pitiful and sympathetic to others. Just share some ordinary experiences innocuously. Others cannot empathize with anything other than ordinary.

"It's all good. Just talk about what you usually do and what you like."

Ember thought about it, "Hmm...it's nothing special, let me think about it."

Ember told Duan Qingrong about her time in Qin'an, she said that she opened a coffin shop and only went around occasionally, and when she had nothing to do on weekdays, she liked to stay at home, read and write, cook tea and flowers, and meet herself when she was interested. Brew some wine, bury it under the plum tree in the courtyard, and then dig it out in winter, cook wine and plums, and copy paintings by the window.

She also said that she occasionally went out to look for food...

Duan Qingrong listened very seriously, following Ember's description, he imagined the picture of her doing these things, full of joy and anger.

But no fear.

Ember's voice had stopped, and she didn't intend to continue talking. She smiled and thanked the store for a plate of small pickles, exchanged the store's misplaced wontons, and pushed the small bowl of wontons in front of him, urging Duan Qingrong ate quickly, and reminded him not to eat too hastily, be careful of burning.

Duan Qingrong responded by holding the spoon and stirring gently, but felt a little frustrated in his heart.

She shared her joys and anger, but she had no sorrow or fear.

Is it because there is nothing to worry about?

not necessarily.

He was 13 years old when he picked her up, and in the usual things she shared just now, she didn't mention anything before the age of 13.

As time went on, the night became darker, the lights on the street became brighter, and the crowds and voices became more lively.

Yuan Yue, Lian Ying and Lian Shuang also came over, and Duan Li was late with a bag of things. The four of them sat at another table and ordered bowls of wontons to eat.

Yu Jin, Duan Qingrong and the other four finished their meal and paid for it together. Just as they were about to return to the long street, they didn't expect the crowd to suddenly become chaotic. They heard a woman's cry, and then the crowd broke apart. The woman in the coarse cotton cloth broke through the crowd and charged towards Duan Qingrong.

"My lord, help!"

Ember raised her eyebrows, a playful look flashed in her eyes very quickly, and immediately she shot like lightning, dragging Duan Qingrong to the side, the woman jumped to the ground and fell to the ground.

The palm was wiped on the ground, and the woman let out a cry of pain. She shook her hand and opened the white and tender palm to take a look, and the tears immediately burst into tears like a bursting embankment.

Four men followed and also squeezed out from the crowd.

They carried similar thick sticks, raised eyebrows, and looked fierce.

"Smelly/girl/girls, you should run away again!"

The woman was crying, crying so sadly, I felt sorry for her, she wiped her tears with her hands, but forgot to wipe her hands, the broken skin wounds stained with tears became more painful, and the woman cried louder all of a sudden.

Now the situation is very clear, there are more men than women, men are strong and women are weak, and there is a scene of robbing women from the common people.

It is human nature to watch the crowds. This place has been surrounded to the brim, and the surroundings are whispering, pointing at the center of the encirclement including Ember and the others, each sharing their own experiences.

"My lord, help me, the little girl doesn't want to fall into the hands of such wicked people."

The woman knelt and moved forward again, trying to grab Duan Qingrong's robe, but Yu Jin changed hands and pulled Duan Qingrong behind her again, and casually pushed Duan Li, who was still too much troubled by the scene in front of her, to the woman.

Duan Li's legs were hugged, he blinked even more confused.

The woman hugged Duan Li's calf and began to cry and complain. She was sobbing as if she had been frightened, and she spoke incoherently, but it revealed a meaning: she sold her body to bury her father, but was harassed and wanted to rob civilian women.

Ember suddenly realized that it turned out that it was a scene of selling one's body to bury the father and robbing the women of the people by force!

Ember carefully looked at the fascinated woman holding Duan Li and crying again, and saw that the woman was wearing really simple clothes, and the clothes were a little bit more worn out than a beggar's, and her hair was slightly messed up, which should have been scattered during running and stumbling. It opened up a little, but it was still possible to clearly see the wilted grass on the woman's head.

This is a sign of a seller. If a person sells it, he will put a weed on his head to signal the sale.

After hearing this, the crowd became even more excited, and excitedly accused the four men who came after them. Those who had trouble even clamored to report to the police, but no one left.

"What do you know!"

The men who came after him were not happy, and one of them retorted loudly, "Isn't it just that I buy you and sell you? Since this woman chose to sell herself to bury her father, she sold herself for ten taels of silver. We can afford it." , and want to buy it too, won’t she belong to us? Why run away!”

"That's right, what are you running for? It's a dead end if you can sell yourself, but since you choose to sell yourself, you probably don't want to go for the popular ones. We spend money to buy you. I'm happy!"

Someone in the crowd asked back: "You also said that this is a business. Since it is a business, you should pay attention to what you like and I will. Even if you can afford it, you are willing to buy it. The girls in Kashgar are not happy. If they don't agree, you have to force it." Buy it, what's the difference between that and robbing a civilian girl!"

This sentence has been supported by many people.

"I bother!"

Another man said, "That sounds nice, then buy it!"
