Chapter 3 Going out and begging
Silent night.

Chen Yuanyuan was lying on the bed, with her grandmother and sister lying beside her.

She has mixed feelings in her heart, half a month ago, the fifteenth day of the July festival.

That day when she woke up in the middle of the night, the Chen family was both surprised and delighted. In the middle of the night, they begged the sleeping doctor to treat her.

After the doctor left, she vaguely heard the doctor say—it is best to prescribe ginseng tablets for a few days, excessive blood loss can easily lead to physical weakness, and the most taboo for this woman is physical weakness.

For the struggling Chen family, they could have ignored it at first, because Zuo Zuo was just a girl.

I don't want to last for a few days, I really added a ginseng film!

Given the poor conditions of the Chen family, if she was willing to buy ginseng slices for her, how could she feel at ease as a rice borer?

Even the younger sister knows how to make money at such a young age. As the elder sister of Chen's family, she should also think of ways to improve the family's conditions.

Just thinking about it like this, she fell asleep unconsciously.

When she woke up again, it was already dawn...

She jumped up, swept away the people beside her and went to Loukong, cursed secretly, and put on her shoes and socks in a hurry.I couldn't stop my slander again: Chen's family is all chickens, why do they get up so early every day! ! ! ?

After washing and washing casually, she tied her black hair to her ears before she hurried out of the room.

Chen's mother had already served bread, and when she saw her come out, she let her have breakfast.

The breakfast was a bit monotonous, the dark thick pancakes were cold and plain, she was very tired of eating, and it also stimulated her desire to make money.

After breakfast, Mother Chen handed over fifty Wen to her.

"Yesterday the dishes were broken by you, today you go to buy some dishes and come back, buy a piece of tofu to cook at night, and bring back a tube of soy sauce."

The corner of Chen Yuanyuan's mouth twitched, she took the copper coins and put them all into her pocket.

Unexpectedly, she, the daughter of a dignified group, will have a day of soy sauce!
Chen's mother did not forget to tell: "I will leave the work at home to you, don't be as careless as yesterday."

After hearing this, Father Chen's eyes widened and he ordered: "Your mother is right, be careful in everything, if the house is burned down again, we will have to sleep on the street!"

"Father and mother, don't worry, today will never repeat the same mistakes!" After speaking, the girl waved her little hand, raised her smiling face and patted her chest to reassure her.

As the saying goes, the first time is born, the second time is familiar!
Chen's mother shook her head helplessly, and then said respectfully to Tong Shi at the table: "Mother, I will leave the second girl to you. She is still young, and when she goes out to work, her mother will take care of her, so the daughter-in-law can feel at ease."

"You can go to work with Zhengping in peace of mind. There is an old woman at home and I will watch over you."

After the order was done, the couple went out with peace of mind.

Not long after the two left, Tong Shi and Chen Qingqing also set off for the embroidery workshop.

Before leaving, Mrs. Tong told Chen Yuanyuan to keep an eye on her younger brother and go to Xiufang or Fulai Building to find someone if something happened.

Chen Yuanyuan agreed one by one, thinking of buying dishes, and she was not familiar with the surrounding geographical environment, so it was much more convenient to have Chen Yunsheng by her side.

The siblings cleaned up and were ready to go out to make soy sauce.

One big and one small walked out of the alleys and alleys, and walked on Chengnan Street.

I saw Chen Yunsheng looking around nervously with his small head.

"Why don't you come out for a while, why are you acting like a thief?" When she said that, Chen Yuanyuan straightened her back and strode forward.

"I'm not afraid of meeting Master Liu."

"Doesn't Master Liu live in the north of the city? If we don't go, it will be fine."

"But Fulailou is in the north of the city. My sister wants to earn money, why don't you go to Fulailou?"

Chen Yuanyuan raised her eyebrows slightly, what the hell is Fulai Tower?

Only Chen Yunsheng continued: "Fulailou is one of the best restaurants in the imperial capital. Both my parents work as waiters in Fulailou. In the past, my sister also helped in the back kitchen. My second sister and I were under the age, so shopkeeper Song confiscated it."

"You mean... let me do odd jobs?"

"if not?"

"Tsk, do I look like a handyman?"

"Then how do we make money?"

Chen Yuanyuan coughed in embarrassment. She opened her mouth when she was dressed in modern clothes, and she opened her mouth when she was eating - she can't cook, has no work experience, and is a scumbag when she studies.

It seems... the only thing you can get out is eating, drinking and having fun?
Frowning, Chen Yuanyuan suddenly thought carefully, and smiled brightly at Chen Yunsheng: "Boy, where is the nearest gambling house?"

"..."

Looking at the excited elder sister, Chen Yunsheng swallowed, for some reason, she always felt that the elder sister in front of her was a bit scary...

***
After a while, two people, one big and one small, were standing in front of the Ye family's gambling house.

"Sister, do you really want to go in?"

"nonsense!"

She asked herself that when she rolled the dice and was an invincible player in the bar, as long as she was given a chance, she would definitely make a lot of money--it doesn't matter, let's give it a try first!
After thinking about it, she has dragged Chen Yunsheng into the casino.

Chen Yunsheng swallowed, a little afraid of following behind his eldest sister, his palms and backs were covered with cold sweat.

As soon as I entered it, a pungent and unpleasant smell hit my nostrils.

People can be seen everywhere in the gambling house, bustling and crowded together, the younger siblings seem out of place because of their small and thin stature.

Just as Chen Yuanyuan was about to flex her muscles, two strong guards came over.

"You two brats, you sneaked in because you wanted to steal something!"

Seeing that two burly men were coming to arrest them, Chen Yuanyuan grabbed Chen Yunsheng's arm and stepped back.

She sternly shouted: "Presumptuous! If you run a gambling shop, don't let people come in to gamble!"

Seeing Chen Yuanyuan's hostile expression, one of the strong men suddenly became interested and looked at her playfully.

"Little yellow-haired girl, how much money did you bring?"

Chen Yuanyuan was born in a wealthy family in modern times. She was naturally not afraid of the two big men, and sneered lightly: "Is this the rule of your gambling house? You also need to check the capital of the guests?"

"Go away if you don't show it!"

"Call your supervisors!"

Hearing this, the two strong men looked at each other and laughed loudly.

"Two brats, do you really think of yourself as a master?"

After saying that, the two of them took one of them and threw them out of the casino, not paying attention to the two little dolls at all.

Chen Yuanyuan struggled endlessly: "You bastard, let go of me!"

"Smelly girl, you're even more powerful!"

During several entanglements, the white cloth on the girl's forehead was faintly oozing blood, and the siblings were finally thrown out of the gambling house, with disheveled hair and disheveled faces falling to the ground, looking pitiful.

Suddenly, a "clang" sounded.

All she saw was a small ingot of broken silver falling at her feet.

Chen Yuanyuan rubbed her buttocks, her heart trembled suddenly, her eyes widened, she grabbed the woman who was about to leave with one hand, and looked up at the woman in shock.

"I... do I look like a beggar?"

Hearing this, the woman who gave alms was startled slightly.

I saw that I was holding my little hand, trembling uncontrollably, could it be that I was too excited?

The woman felt more and more distressed, squatted down and patted the back of Chen Yuanyuan's hand gently, with an expression that I understand, and said kindly: "Poor man, I have to take my brother to beg for injury, and use the money to buy some delicious food .It is fate that you and I met, so there is no need to thank you.”

After saying that, without waiting for Chen Yuanyuan to reply, she left with a satisfied smile, leaving Chen Yuanyuan in a mess in the autumn wind.
