Chapter 155: Speechless
The third young lady of the Liang family was not grateful and said indignantly: "Since you know that she is wrong, why don't you let her go to the ancestral hall... and send her to the Feng family to reflect, why should you send her to the Feng family to reflect... Don't think I don't know what medicine you sell in the gourd..."
Mother Jin gently pulled her sleeve.
Grandma Liang's third young master immediately turned around, her face darkened, and she looked very unhappy: "What are you doing?" But her tone slowed down.
Mother Jin smiled and said, "Auntie, you'll have been out for a while. If you don't go, the pork head meat from Wu's family on West Street will be sold out."
Grandma Liang's third young master said "Oh" and said with some regret: "If I had known, I should have come here early... Let's go! I've heard people say that the pork-headed meat in the Wu family on West Street in Kyoto is unparalleled. This time, I have to try it." As she said that, without looking at everyone, she walked straight out.
Mother Jin nodded and smiled at Chen Muqing, and followed.
Liang Shuxin smiled bitterly and bowed to Chen Muqing and walked out.
Chen Muqing's legs became weak, and he covered his chest and sat on the Wengui chair beside him, breathing a sigh of relief: "Where did Liang Yuan find such a living treasure from... It's really a bad person who is frustrated by his own evil person!"
"Don't be angry, auntie," Chang Hui stuttered to comfort Chen Muqing, "The family will be defeated, and there will be monsters. I think, the Liang family will be punished if they do too much morals!"
If everyone does bad things, they will be punished, and I don’t know how many people will die in the world!
Chen Muqing laughed and said sincerely to Chang Hui: "It's thanks to you today, otherwise I would have suffered a great loss."
Chang Hui said modestly: "No one expected that a woman would have such good skills!"
Chen Muqing pondered: "Is that mother Jin good at it?"
Chang Hui nodded: "Among women, she is one of the best experts - when my sister-in-law is not sick, she is probably just as good as her!"
Chen Muqing was stunned.
She didn't expect that Liu Niang also had good martial arts skills.
"So, what's her disease?"
Chang Hui smiled bitterly: "She works several jobs... her body is so hard that she can't stand such an endurance... I want to go to the escort agency to be a master, but she doesn't let me. He said that my elder brother is no longer here and I can't let me..." He seemed to have a lot of thoughts to say, and he talked to Shen Muqing, "I have been away from home for twenty years, and my parents rely on my elder brother and sister-in-law to be filial to me... I have three unfilial things, so I have taken all of them. I can't ignore my elder sister-in-law's words... I really have no choice but to borrow the money from my aunt..."
Chen Muqing smiled and said, "Our family is more economically than your family, but your family has good skills... Everyone is the same, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. When there are difficulties, they should help each other. Uncle Chang's two children are still young, and life will be better after these years."
"No," Chang Hui's eyes lit up. "My nephew was studying in Yixue. The gentleman praised him for being smart and clever, saying that he could be a scholar at all... I know I should not be insane and borrow money from your family. But keep the green mountains and don't worry about not having firewood. I will repay the grace of water in the future."
Chen Muqing felt that although his image was not good, his conversation was very interesting. He smiled and nodded.
Chang Hui was a talkative person. Seeing that Chen Muqing didn't dislike his family's shortcomings, he was happy and said it naturally.
"Poor people are afraid of getting sick. It's nothing when they are in good health, but when they fall, they know that it's better. My sister-in-law is waiting to take medicine, my nephew is waiting to take rice and meat to go to Yixue. My niece is gone, and I don't even add a new piece of clothes... I have to spend money everywhere... Can backbone be exchanged for silver? I have been alone in the desert for fifteen years, seen the snow in the Tianshan Mountains, and drank Namcuo's water... When it's really bitter, I just thought that I could survive. No matter whether it's horse urine or bad rice, I can swallow it..."
Everyone has a need to express themselves in their hearts!
Life is so difficult, and if you can tell it, you will feel much better.
Chen Muqing smiled slightly, listening to Chang Hui's nagging.
The two of them talked about a cup of tea, and the second shopkeeper asked her to tell her through the curtain: "Look, do we have to hire a few more masters tomorrow?"
It probably won't be used?
Could it be that the third young lady of the Liang family still go out every day?
It would be great if there was someone like Chang Hui around you!
The thought flashed, and Chen Muqing became interested.
She first instructed the second shopkeeper: "It's getting late, please rest. When I say a few words to Master Chang, you can accompany me and go to Tianxianglou to have a drink together!"
As soon as Chen Muqing finished speaking, Chang Hui waved his hand: "I won't go! I'm not used to that kind of place!"
Tianxianglou is a relatively famous brothel in Kyoto, so it’s better if Chang Hui doesn’t go there!
"Since that's the case, then you guys go first!"
The second shopkeeper left.
Chen Muqing smiled and said, "By the way, Master Chang, I don't know who you learned your martial arts from?"
Chang Hui was stunned and said, "This is a family tradition. Our Chang family was also well-known in the world forty years ago. However, when it came to my father's generation, there was only my father, a man. Gradually, people in the world didn't know much about our Chang family."
Chang En died really... Although the Sixth Master did not get the favor later, he could not get Chang En to know even if he died a thousand times.
He only has one son, no wonder his sixth sister doesn’t want her son to follow Chang En’s old path!
Thinking of this, Chen Muqing couldn't help but sigh and asked Chang Hui: "Then will you accept your apprentice?"
Chang Hui was a little hesitant.
Chen Muqing immediately realized that what he said was inappropriate.
In ancient times, recruiting apprentices was not like modern times, such as heaven, earth, king, parents, and teachers. They were like parents. Therefore, it was a very cautious thing for the master to recruit apprentices, let alone family-born martial arts like Chang Hui.
"Master Chang, that's it." Chen Muqing hurriedly made up for it. "You know the situation in our family. I just want to invite you to the house and teach our servants some fist and foot skills to protect the hospital... There is no need to learn so well, as long as you are not bullied."
Chang Hui's expression was hesitant and did not make a sound for a long time.
"If you are in a dilemma, forget it..." Chen Muqing hurriedly said, "I don't understand these things, I just mentioned them. Don't take them to heart if they are wrong."
Chang Hui hurriedly explained: "Auntie, you don't know that anyone who has some fists or feet thinks he is better than others. If he has better cultivation, he will naturally endure things when things happen, but if he has less cultivation, he will be afraid that he will have disputes. If you learn ten percent, it's better to fight all over the world, you're afraid that you are just half a pot of water and can't beat him, but you have some skills and others treat you as a man in the martial arts world... It's better not to learn - people in the martial arts world will not easily attack those who don't understand kung fu. This is an unwritten rule."
Chen Muqing felt that what he said made sense. He couldn't help but laugh: "Master Chang, don't be surprised!"
Chang Hui also smiled: "If you have something to do, you can bring a letter to Yangqian Hutong to find me - we are moving there now. There is no need to raise a pig just to eat pork!"
Chen Muqing was amused by his words.
Seeing that it was getting late, Mingxia had to pack another twenty taels of silver for Chang Hui.
Chang Hui was not polite, and smiled and said, "I am too lice, but I am not too itchy, and I am not too worried about debt!"
Chen Muqing laughed.
After seeing off Chang Hui, she took Li Siguan to the inner city quickly. When she arrived at Zhengyang Gate, the city gate was closed. She had no choice but to turn back to Baizhifang for a night.
Early the next morning, Yingfen rushed over.
"When I went back yesterday, I heard that my aunt had not come back yet, so I said you wanted to stay in Baizhifang and asked me to report the news to my family." Yingfen told Chen Muqing about the situation last night, for fear that the two of them would say differently after Chen Muqing returned home.
"What did the master say?" Chen Muqing was afraid of Chen Zhen.
Yingfen said, "The master didn't sleep for most of the night. He also said that he would have to come back to Baizhifang in the future. Otherwise, he would not be allowed to go to the shop again."
My son is worried about traveling thousands of miles away.
Chen Muqing nodded repeatedly: "It's all my fault for not paying attention!"
Yingfen was concerned about her situation after she left and asked, "Auntie, what are the people from the Liang family doing?"
Chen Muqing felt that what he had yesterday was simply indescribable, so he sighed and said, "For specific, please ask Mingxia!"
Yingfen looked confused, and Chen Muqing said, "By the way, what did you do when I asked you to inquire about it?"
Yingfen's face turned solemn: "I pretended to be a person looking for relatives, and my neighbors asked. He said that the yard was originally a different house in Wu Bo's family in Zhen. Three years ago, he was bought by a family named Xiao. At the beginning, there were still people living there, but it has been empty for the past two years. It was reported that it was going to be sold some time ago."
how so?
"Have you found out anything else?"
Yingfen shook his head.
"The Xiao family has moved in, and they don't have much contact with other families... No matter how many, everyone won't know!"
Chen Muqing pondered for a while and called Lin Jincai.
"You go to Baishu Hutong to see if there is a yard to sell?"
Lin Jincai left, and Chen Muqing frowned irritably.
It would be great if I could go to the Ministry of Personnel to ask... Officials have a foundation there... Who should I ask for hello...
Thinking of this, Chen Muqing stood up suddenly.
"Yingfen, ask someone to prepare a car. I want to go to Lord Min of Tianjing Hutong."
Yingfen left and quickly turned back.
"Auntie, auntie, Young Master Xiao is here!" She smiled.
"Young Master Xiao?" Chen Muqing was stunned, "Xiao Sa?"
"It's Xiao Sa and Young Master Xiao!"
"Let him wait in the flower hall." Chen Muqing hurriedly said, "I'll change my clothes and come!"
Ying Fen smiled and walked away quickly.
Chen Muqing covered a bean-green bun with beans on the white silk jacket and went to the flower hall.
Yingfen and Mingxia served tea and snacks, and were entertaining Xiao Sa dim.
Chen Muqing saw that he was dressed very differently than that day.
The royal blue five-two holding a birthday ball with straight silk, a jade-colored cloth towel, and a pair of crow-green lucky toe shoes. Not only was the dressed up very ordinary, but the folds on the clothes were clearly visible - it was clearly a new dress.
Could it be that I wanted to meet the guests that I specially changed into a new dress?
She felt a little tingling in her heart, and without saying anything polite, she said, "What's wrong? Why are you in Kyoto?"
Xiao Sa slowly stood up when Shen Muqing walked in.
When he heard her ask him, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a scorching light burst out like summer. He asked without answering, "What's the matter with you looking for me?"
(Brother Xiao finally appeared...555...)
