When the carriage was halfway there, Shen Ruolan felt a little urgent to urinate. She drank several glasses of wine in the morning, and drank another cup of tea just now. The liquid is still in her stomach, so suffocating!
It can be said that this is the wilderness here, and she didn't dare to get out of the car to solve it without authorization, so she had to hold back, and when the car entered the city and passed a public toilet, she hurriedly stopped, saying that she had something to do here , After getting off the car, let the driver go back first.
As soon as the coachman left, Shen Ruolan hurried into the toilet and let out the liquid in her stomach.
When I came out, my bladder was empty and I was much more comfortable, but I couldn't find my way.
This is obviously a slum area, the streets are narrow and dilapidated, and there are low adobe houses everywhere, and there are even thatched houses, which are dirty and messy. Occasionally, a few ragged people can be seen walking by, just like these dilapidated houses. It is quite proportionate.
Shen Ruolan caught a half-grown child who ran wildly, gave him a penny, asked him about the road, and asked him how to get to the palace.
The child got a penny, and he was so happy that he couldn't see his teeth, and he said it very carefully: "Go along this alley and turn right at the end, and you will be Eryan'er Alley, and then go through Eryaner Alley, and you will arrive at the main road in Jizhou. Street, when you reach the main street, you will definitely find the Wangfu."
Hearing the child mention Ear Eye Alley, Shen Ruolan felt very familiar!
Suddenly remembered, Yu Nu told her yesterday that her family lived in Eryaner Hutong.
Now that I have reached the door of the house, I just go in and have a look.
She thanked the child, went to the end of the alley, turned right, and walked into Eryan'er Alley.
Eryan'er Hutong is very large and long, with about a dozen families living there. Shen Ruolan only remembered that Yu Nu told her that her family lived in the third house from the right of Eryan Hutong, but she didn't know whether it was the third house on the right from the south or from the The third house on the right from the north.
After wandering around for a while but didn't figure it out, and didn't pass by here, Shen Ruolan decided to ask around.
First knock on the third house on the right side of the north, and an old woman opened the door. Seeing Shen Ruolan, the old woman asked suspiciously, "Girl, who are you looking for?"
Shen Ruolan said politely: "Excuse me, mother-in-law, does Yu Nu live here?"
"Are you looking for Yu Nu?"
When the old lady heard the word 'Yu Nu', she looked at Shen Ruolan vigilantly: "Who are you? What do you want her for?"
Shen Ruolan said: "I'm her friend. I came to visit her specially, but I forgot to ask her detailed address. Do you know Yu Nu? Does she live here?"
"Miss Yunu doesn't live here..." Before the mother-in-law could finish speaking, a man's voice that seemed familiar suddenly came from the room, "Grandma, who is it?"
The mother-in-law hurriedly turned her head and said sternly: "It's none of your business, just read your book carefully and don't be distracted."
Then he said to Shen Ruolan: "Miss Yu Nu's house lives in front, not far from my house, the girl walks straight from here, the house with a willow tree at the front door is the house rented by Yu Nu's family."
It turned out that Yu Nu's family lived in a rented house, and they still lived in a slum. It seemed that life was indeed difficult.
Shen Ruolan followed what her mother-in-law said, and quickly walked to the house with the big willow tree at the door.
The house is very dilapidated, short and small, it is still a thatched house, the thatch on the roof is in a mess, as if it is about to collapse, it is comparable to the dilapidated house she lived in when she was in Kaoshantun, it is almost this alley The worst family in the village.
I remember the jade slave in the past, dressed very well, even if she was not a daughter of everyone, but at least she was raised by a well-to-do family. I didn't expect to live in such a crappy house now. No wonder she is so thin and lonely.
After Shen Ruolan looked around, she pulled her neck and shouted: "Is Yu Nu at home? Excuse me, is Yu Nu here?"
He stood outside and yelled twice, but no one from Yu Nu's house came out to open the door, instead he called out the aunt next door.
After the neighbor's aunt came out, she looked at Shen Ruolan carefully, and said, "Girl, are you here to look for Yu Nu?"
Shen Ruolan said: "Yes, I'm Yu Nu's friend. I don't know if Yu Nu is back now? Where is her family? Why didn't anyone come to open the door?"
The aunt said: "Didn't you say that you and Yu Nu are friends? Don't you know that she and her mother are the only ones in her house? Her mother is sick now and can't get up."
Shen Ruolan smiled and said: "I haven't seen Yu Nu for a long time, and I didn't have time to say more when I met once in a while. I didn't know what you said until today. By the way, auntie, Yu Nu works during the day You are always taking care of her mother, right? Or, auntie, please take me in. I am a little girl, and I can't be a bad person. Besides, her family is like this, and there is nothing worth worrying about. "
The auntie looked at Shen Ruolan, saw that she was neatly dressed and beautiful, so she couldn't possibly be a bad person, so she smiled and said: "It is true that I am taking care of her mother, let's go, I will take you in."
After speaking, he pushed open the fence door and led Shen Ruolan into the yard.
After entering the house, it was dark inside, and I couldn't see anything clearly. A musty smell mixed with the smell of medicine came to my nostrils.
The aunt groped her way to the heated kang, lit the oil lamp on the kang table with a flint, and said softly: "Yu Nuniang is asleep, girl, sit down first, Yu Nu will be back in a while."
Shen Ruolan sat down on the edge of the Kang according to her words, and looked at the dark room.
This house is not as good as the one she lived in in Kaoshantun. There is only one common room, and the kitchen, main room, and bedroom are all in this room.
In the northeast corner of the house, there is a mud-built stove with pots and stoves on it. On the stove are several pairs of bowls and chopsticks, several pots, and several bottles and jars, which should be used to hold seasonings and the like. of something.
In addition to the pot and stove, there is a broom and a stick on the ground, all of which are placed in the northwest corner. Besides, there is not even a stool on the ground, let alone other furniture.
The only piece of furniture in the house is the painted kang table, and the only piece of furniture is still placed on the kang, making the floor look empty, not like a living.
A woman with haggard face and gray hair was sleeping on the big kang. She was supposed to be Yu Nu's mother. Looking at Yu Nu's appearance, she seemed to be in her 40s or 50s, but Yu Nu was only fifteen or sixteen years old. Early, this Yu Nuniang is only thirty-five or sixteen years old at most, and she is so old, and I don't know what kind of accidents have happened to make her become like this!
"Girl, Yu Nu's family is poor, and there is no tea to entertain you, don't be surprised!" The aunt also sat down on Kang Yan'er, and turned the wick of the oil lamp to make the oil lamp brighter.
Shen Ruolan didn't come to drink tea, of course she wouldn't mind, she looked at Yu Nuniang who was still sleeping, and asked her aunt in a low voice: "Auntie, what's wrong with Yu Nuniang, have you seen a doctor?"
The aunt sighed, and said, "Her family is so poor that they can hardly afford food, so how can they afford to hire a doctor? The tonic that they are taking now is given to them by Shen Xiucai who is next to them because he thinks they are too pitiful." !"
Shen Ruolan understood, it turned out that Yu Nu had fallen to such a point.
It seems that she came at the right time this time, otherwise Yu Nuniang's illness will be difficult to cure if it drags on.
After waiting for half a stick of incense, Yu Nu finally came back. As soon as she entered the door and saw Shen Ruolan, a genuine smile appeared on Yu Nu's sad face. Holding Shen Ruolan's hand, he said happily: "Lan'er, why did you come here without saying hello? If I knew you were coming, I'll go buy some food."
Shen Ruolan smiled and said, "Next time, I'm passing by here on business this time, so I stopped by to have a look. My family doesn't know I'm here yet, so my mother will definitely wait for me to go back for dinner."
Hearing what she said, Yu Nu felt much better, otherwise she would be very sorry if her good friend came here and there was nothing to eat at home.
The neighbor's aunt Jian Yunu came back, so she told her, got up and went back to her home.
As soon as the aunt left, Shen Ruolan raised the doubts in her heart, "Yu Nu, why are you and your mother the only two in your family? Where is your father?"
As soon as the word "father" was mentioned, Yu Nu's eye circles turned red suddenly, and a bit of hatred burst out in her eyes. She gritted her teeth and said simply: "Dead!"
One look at her eyes, one can tell that her father's death is not as simple as that, he should be sorry for their mothers, and make their mothers heartbroken, right
Although Shen Ruolan guessed so, she didn't say it clearly, she only asked with concern, "Then you two are having a hard time right now!"
Yu Nu pursed her lips, and said after a long time: "It will get better, I will pay the monthly money in ten days, and it won't be so difficult then."
"Ten days? I don't think your mother's illness can be delayed any longer. It's best to find a good doctor to take a look at it now!" Shen Ruolan looked at Yu Nuniang who had been sleeping all the time. She has been here for so long, Yu Nu Mother is still asleep, she must be seriously ill, otherwise she wouldn't be so mentally deficient.
Yu Nu also followed Shen Ruolan's gaze to look at her mother, with guilt and helplessness in her eyes, and said bitterly, "I also want to find a doctor to show her right now, but I have no money now, and the doctor refuses to pay on credit, so do I. Have no idea… "
Hearing this, Shen Ruolan took out her purse and said, "Why don't I lend you some first, and help your mother get well soon, otherwise it will be difficult if it drags on." Just like her mother, at the beginning If he had been treated earlier, why should he be in this situation today
As he spoke, he took out a few scattered pieces of silver from his purse, about two or three taels in total, and put them on the kang table.
Seeing so much silver, Yu Nu grabbed the hem of his clothes and his heart jumped.
What she lacks most now is money. If she has this money, her mother's illness can be cured. As long as her mother is cured, their life will be bright...
It's just that she doesn't have a deep friendship with Lan'er, and she only lives in the same room in Wusun for a few days. She feels a little sorry for borrowing so much money all at once!
"Lan'er, I..."
She wanted to decline, but immediately thought of her mother's illness, so she swallowed the excuse that was on her lips.
"I will work hard and return the money to you sooner, thank you Lan Er, you have really helped me a lot..."
Shen Ruolan said: "Don't rush to pay back the money. It's the same when you get your life settled down and pay it back slowly. I'm not in a hurry to use it. Besides, I live diagonally opposite the Wangfu. If you have anything to do, go to Just find me over there."
"Well, I see, thank you, Laner..."
Yu Nu was so moved, Lan'er's money was really timely, it literally saved her life!
Seeing that it was getting dark outside, Shen Ruolan was afraid that her parents would worry about her, so she got up and left, Yu Nu sent her outside, and when she walked to the door, she unexpectedly ran into Shen You who met yesterday at Baiweiren's house First.
At this time, Shen Youjia was wandering around the door of Nu's house, saw Yu Nu coming out, and hurriedly said: "Miss Yu Nu, I heard from my grandma that someone is inquiring about your house, I'll come and have a look..."
Just after saying the word 'take a look', his eyes fell on Shen Ruolan, and he was pleasantly surprised again: "Miss Yunu, is this the girl who inquired about your family? Are you friends with her?"
Yu Nu looked at Shen Youjia's surprised look, then at Shen Ruolan, and asked suspiciously, "Does brother Shen know my friend?"
"I know each other. I was lucky enough to see this girl's literary talents the day before yesterday. I admire this girl very much. I have been studying the couplet made by this girl for the past two days." Shen Youjia said admiringly.
However, Shen Ruolan was not at all interested in this nerd's admiration and pursuit, she didn't even bother to look at him, and said to Yu Nu: "I'm leaving first, and I'll come to see you tomorrow when I have time."
Yu Nu nodded and said, "It's getting dark, go back and be careful!"
When Shen Youjia saw that Shen Ruolan was about to leave, she eagerly stopped her and said, "Miss, is she leaving? It just so happens that I have nothing to do now, can I have the honor to see the girl for a ride? I happen to have a few questions to ask the girl."
"There is a difference between men and women, it's better not to have a date together." Shen Ruolan left a sentence indifferently, without looking back.
Shen Youjia saw that Shen Ruolan had no interest in talking to him at all, let alone asking him to send him off or discuss knowledge with him, he shook his head helplessly, ah, apparently this talented girl is still worrying about him disturbing her to listen to the book yesterday It seems that he has no chance to discuss knowledge with her...
"Brother Shen, I'm going back to cook. Would you like to go in for a while?" Yu Nu said politely.
Shen Youjia waved his hand, "No, didn't your friend just say that men and women are different, it's not good for people to see me entering your house, by the way, is your mother's illness better? I recently found out in the bookstore A prescription, the medicine on it is not expensive, and it is very suitable for your mother's illness, I copied the prescription and gave it to you-"
Yu Nu took Fang Zi and said sincerely: "Thank you, Brother Shen!"
I have been here for more than a month, thanks to the help of this big brother Shen, otherwise she and mother might not live in the emperor now.
At the beginning, she suspected that Big Brother Shen had plots against her, but she gradually discovered that he is actually a very warm-hearted and kind person, but he is just stupid in reading, ignorant of world affairs, and doesn't know how to avoid suspicion, so she dispelled all her doubts , Thank him wholeheartedly.
After Shen Yujia gave the copied prescription to Yu Nu, he hurried home to copy the book.
He and his grandma are the only two people in the family who depend on each other for life. All the sources of income have to be earned by copying books one by one...
**
When Shen Ruolan came home, it was a little late, and the family was waiting for her while making jelly. Seeing her coming back, her mother rushed to heat her food again. Zhaodi wanted to help, but her mother refused.
She wanted to cook more meals for her Lan'er when she could still move, so as to make up for the regrets of the past ten years!
Shen Ruolan also rushed to the kitchen to help, one of the mothers was busy making rice in the pot, and the other squatted in front of the stove to light the fire.
Mu put a big white steamed bun and a bowl of vegetables on the grate, covered the pot, and said slowly, "Lan'er, you got up early and left every day these two days, and you only came back at night, what are you doing?" went?"
While lowering her head to add firewood to the stove, Shen Ruolan said without raising her head, "Didn't I tell you that I'm going to open a hot pot shop, and I'm looking for a suitable one."
"But, mother saw that there is a carriage picking you up every day, and that carriage doesn't look like a carriage..." Mu said hesitantly.
She didn't want to doubt her daughter, but she was worried that she would be cheated, so she couldn't help asking.
Shen Ruolan smiled without changing her expression: "That was sent by Zhou Zheng, a private car, of course it's not a car dealer's car!"
Since passing through, Shen Ruolan has told countless lies, she is used to it, and now there is no pressure to lie, and she is becoming more and more proficient, to the point where she can lie without changing her face or beating her heart. It can be called the master of the world of lying!
Seeing the calm expression on her face, Mother really believed it, so she didn't worry anymore, but said with a little distress: "You are still a daughter at such a young age, and you work all day long for the family's livelihood. I should have done it with your father, I shouldn't have taught you to work so hard... "
Shen Ruolan was afraid that she would be sad, so she hurriedly said: "Don't say that, I am not only doing this for my family, but also for myself. Think about it, if I make a lot of money, I can not only take good care of my family In the future, won’t the backs of the in-law’s house be hard? Will the rich and poor daughter-in-laws be treated the same in the in-law’s house?”
Hearing what she said, Mu Shi stopped feeling sad, and smiled wryly: "That's true."
If she had been rich back then, her mother-in-law and sister-in-law wouldn't have bullied her so much, let alone beating her and scolding her every now and then, maybe they could still please her in every possible way
