Chapter 17 Saburo
"I bought you from an old woman."

*
When Yun Qi woke up, he found that he had arrived in an extremely exquisite female boudoir, lying on an extremely gorgeous bed.

The room is filled with elegant plum fragrance, mixed with a faint medicinal fragrance, which immediately refreshes the mind.

Snow was falling outside the window, and there were many snowflakes, but there was a plum tree standing under the blue sky.

The plum trees are strong, and on the branches covered with white snow, there are dots of red plums, shining like gems.

There was a man standing in front of the window, looking from his back, he was tall, tall and straight, as majestic as a mountain.

Hearing the rustling sound behind him, the man turned around and said softly, "Are you awake?"

The moment he saw him, Yun Qi was stunned.

He was more than eight feet tall, tall and strong, with broad shoulders, long legs and a thin waist. He was wearing a crimson brocade robe.

He strode forward, with sword-like eyebrows on his wheat-colored face, a pair of meteor-like eyes shining very brightly, and two curly mustaches on his lips. Although he was only in his early twenties, his whole body exuded a compelling momentum.

Yun Qi was startled, looked around the delicate room, and asked eagerly, "Where are you and me?"

The man sat down in front of the couch, looked at her steadily, with a warm smile on his face, and said: "The servant girl in the mansion has bathed and changed your clothes, and the doctor has also shown you that you have been poisoned."

After bathing and changing clothes, Yun Qi was taken aback, and suddenly recalled the horrible scene before, and the vague feeling of being hugged by a man, his face immediately turned red, he stretched out his hand to pull up the quilt, and peeked underneath, as if Nothing happened, so she felt relieved, no matter how she got here, her heart was filled with gratitude to this man.

"Thank you, sir, for saving me," she settled down, nodded and smiled at the man, expressing her gratitude, "I have just arrived in your land and I am penniless, and you have saved my life, as long as I can do it, please Straight up."

He smiled slightly, picked up the medicine bowl on the sandalwood table and handed it over, "Let's not talk about this, you are safe now, this is the antidote, drink the medicine, and you will be fine soon."

With his support, Yun Qi sat up and took the medicine bowl. Although the medicine smelled very bitter, Yun Qi held his breath and drank the whole bowl of medicine juice in one gulp without even frowning.

Although there was bitterness in his mouth, there was a burst of warmth in his heart that he had never felt before.

Of course, people in the dungeon will get sick, but they will never experience this feeling of being taken care of by relatives and friends until they die. Now that someone cares about her, even though he is just a stranger, Yun Qi is already very content.

—Will he have any intentions?

Yun Qi secretly thought, probably not.Judging by his clothes and the layout of the mansion, he is either rich or expensive. If he really wanted to do something, he probably would have done it long ago.
After taking the medicine bowl that Yun Qi had finished drinking, the man inquired with a half-smile, "When I saw you, you kept calling out a name. Who is he?"

——That person is of course Yunfei, Ouyang Yunfei!
Recalling everything in the past again, the smile on Yun Qi's face disappeared suddenly, and her eyes looking out of the window were covered with tears, but she didn't want to expose her weakness in front of this strange man, so she quickly lowered her head again, using Wiping the corners of his eyes with his cuff, when he raised his head again, a pale smile appeared on that snow-white face, "I should be calling Yunfei, his name is Ouyang Yunfei, and my name is Ouyang Yunqi."

"He's yours."

"Brother," Yun Qi tried to squeeze out a hasty smile: "He is my eldest brother, my parents have already left, and he is the only brother."

The man stared at her quietly, the young girl's skin was crystal clear, like a jade color penetrating to the bones, her black hair was winding down, her eyes were as bright as diamonds, but there were traces of sadness in them.

No matter who sees her, his heart will be moved. However, this is not the first time he has seen her.

The man smiled, his smile was as gentle as a spring breeze, and said, "You are now in Luoyang."

"Luoyang?" Yun Qi was stunned, and murmured hastily, "My lord, how did I get saved?"

He stretched out his hand pityingly, his fingertips almost touched the fragrant soft hair, paused in mid-air, patted her shoulder lightly, and said softly: "My surname is Dou, Dou Huier, You are the third eldest in the family, you can call me Saburo, I bought you from an old woman."

Yun Qi frowned, "Buy it?"

Dou Sanlang gave her a piece of sesame cake, and said slowly: "My Dou family has been in business for generations. I passed by the west of Changle City last night. I planned to buy a few girls. You know, the world is in chaos now, and no one can eat it." When they are full, the poor have to sell their sons and daughters. Maybe there is enough money, and an old woman hurriedly brought you here in a bullock cart. At that time, you seemed to be having a high fever, and you were saying something from time to time. I heard Yunfei These two words."

Presumably the old woman was greedy for money, so instead of killing her, she resold her.

Yun Qi thought anxiously, although he was saved, he was no longer free, but became a servant girl of the Dou family.

A maid is a person who serves tea and water all day long and obeys orders. She has no freedom and is almost like a slave.

After thinking for a while, Yun Qi raised his head and said, "My lord, I am not from Datang. I was originally free. I passed by Changle and was taken away by that old woman who drugged me. She almost killed me. My lord bought it." Me, I have the grace to save my life. However, I am always happy to be free. One day in the future, if I earn enough money, can I redeem myself?"

"Freedom?" Dou Sanlang was stunned, looking at her expectant eyes with disappointment, his heart moved, although there was no such thing as a promise of body, he responded patiently: "How do you plan to make money? "

Yun Qi lowered his eyes and thought, the old woman got a lot of money from herself, instead of spending a lot of effort to find money to redeem herself, it is better to kill her back, let her swallow it and spit it out, on the one hand, she can solve the problem of freedom immediately On the other hand, it can also avenge those souls who were murdered by the mother and son.

When these thoughts came to her lips, she swallowed them abruptly.

How can you say something like murder to someone casually?
Yun Qi simply changed the subject and asked, "My lord, how many years will it take to be a servant girl in the mansion?"

"Entering our Dou Mansion is naturally a matter of a lifetime."

"Forever?" Yun Qi immediately widened his eyes, and the word "depressed" was written all over his eyes.

What an international joke, human life is like an animal, a few hundred taels of silver can spend a lifetime in it!

——I used to be a free man, and I was able to punch criminals. I came to this ghost place and spent my whole life as a slave and handmaiden, being ordered around by others. Is it true that God is punishing me? !
Suddenly, she seemed to see Li Meng, that blunt mechanical face was laughing wildly with complacency.

Although you do as the Romans do, you can't get worse and worse, right? !
Yun Qi thought for a while, and said in a begging tone: "My lord, anyone can do the job of serving tea and water. You are a big family. If you want to come to the mansion, there will be a group of maids and maidservants. I won't be too many if you don't have one more." I have a lot of them. However, before coming to Datang, I was a bad person and was good at flying. I am willing to serve you at will for a year, and after one year, please give me back my freedom."

Dou Sanlang was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect that although this woman was young, she had her own ideas, he was stunned for a while, and said with a little reluctance: "Where are you from?"

Yun Qi didn't want to use the rhetoric of Yingzhou of Xiandao to fool his savior, "My home is in the East China Sea. Hundreds of years ago, my ancestors escaped the war and migrated there from the Central Plains, so I can speak the language here."

Dou Sanlang listened calmly, and asked again: "You are a girl, why did you come to Datang alone?"

Yun Qi sighed softly: "Oh, I accidentally fell into the turbulent sea water, and I came here after waking up."

This reason is so unbelievable that Dou Sanlang became more and more puzzled, "You like freedom so much, you want to go back in the future?"

Yun Qi raised his eyes and looked out the window, the snow outside had stopped.

The snow is covered with clusters of red plums, and the whole world is like a pure and beautiful picture.

She watched quietly, her eyes were far away, as if she wanted to travel through thousands of mountains and rivers. After a long time, she finally sighed, "It's useless to think, I can't find the way back."

Dou Sanlang was overjoyed, but the woman's lonely expression fell into his eyes, and he comforted her: "Don't worry, I will ask someone to help you find out, and you will definitely find the way back. When the time comes, you must take me with you." , I also want to go to that paradise to have a good look.”

Yun Qi sighed sadly: "There is no road in that place."

Dou Sanlang was even more amazed, and asked: "There is no way, how did you come here?!"

Yun Qi smiled bitterly: "I don't know either, Zhuang Zhou Mengdie, to you, my world is like a dream, but no one can tell clearly which is reality and which is a dream, maybe it doesn't matter at all .”

In an instant, Dou Sanlang found that such a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl's dark eyes were so dark that they could not see the bottom, and there was deep sadness in them.

"Since you came here and met me, it means that we are destined, forget the past and start over here."

"Start again?" Yun Qi lowered his eyes and murmured, and asked after a while: "My lord, if you suddenly went to a completely strange world, what would you do?"

"If you come, you will be at ease. I will live there with peace of mind. There, I will have new friends, wives, and children. They are all my relatives. I will live happily with them."

Yun Qi listened quietly, and when he heard about his wife and children, instead of laughing, he became more sad and choked up: "If the person you love the most is far away, maybe you will go to that place forever No, what should you do?"

The person she loves the most is that Yunfei, right?

Like your brother?
It turned out that Yunfei was far away.

Dou Sanlang felt inexplicably joyful, stretched out his hands to support her trembling shoulders from sobbing, and said: "Forget about him, since you have come here, you should embrace a new life, and he will certainly do the same."

Yun Qi was sobbing, but held back, she just shed tears silently, she suddenly raised her head to face Dou Sanlang, "My lord, within a year I will be sent by my lord, come in the water, go in the fire, and I won't wrinkle the slightest bit." Brow, after one year, can the young master give me back my freedom?"

"Come in the water, go in the fire? Are you not afraid of death?!"

"If there is no freedom, I would rather die."

Unexpectedly, such a beautiful girl was so stubborn, and Dou Sanlang found that he liked her more and more.

"But you have no relatives in Datang. If you want, I will be your relatives, your friends, and my home is your home. If I give you freedom, where can you go?"

"I don't know," Yun Qi forced a smile, "but I prefer to have friends rather than masters."

Dou Sanlang pondered for a moment, and said: "In my mind, you have never been a servant girl, but a friend. How about it, I will lend you the money for your redemption. In the future, if you do things for me, I will reward you , you can completely repay those silver taels with rewards, what do you think?"

What can I do for him?
Yun Qi thought for a while, and said decisively: "I will not do things that violate my conscience, murder and set fire."

Dou Sanlang was startled, then laughed loudly, shook his head and said, "Don't worry, do you think I'm that kind of person?"
