Life is a Game

Wen Er's work efficiency is very high, and he is very good at reading people's faces. He saw that Yan Zhi's legs and feet were inconvenient, so he brought two buckets of hot water in a short while, not only hot water, but also a woman.

"Mr. Xia, I don't think you can take care of this girl by yourself, so I invited a woman here on my own initiative. To be honest, she only needs 15 copper dollars a day." Please, the clothes will be delivered later, don't worry, he is definitely an old doctor of our Star City."

The old woman stood obediently aside.

Xia Mubing nodded, took out two oceans and handed them to Wen Er: "You are responsible for giving her the money to buy a nicer dress, and then go and ask if you can buy an extra train ticket."

"Okay!" Wen Er smiled happily after receiving the money, and gave the woman next to him a wink, signaling her to go in and take care of her.

Xia Mubing waited outside until Wen Er brought the clothes and the doctor over. The woman inside took the clothes, helped Rouge put them on, and then came out to tell Xia Mubing and the others.

People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. After washing and changing into new clothes, Rouge looked very beautiful. At least Jiang Feng and Xia Mubing had been wandering around the city for so many days, but they had never seen a girl more beautiful than Rouge.

As for whether there is a girl more beautiful than her face in the Red Sleeve Pavilion, Jiang Feng doesn't know if she hasn't been there.

The beautiful girls these days are either the young ladies raised by wealthy families, or the girls raised by high-end brothels like Hongxiu Pavilion. Ordinary people can't even eat enough to eat, their nutrition can't keep up, and they don't look good when they grow up.

"This girl is so beautiful!" the old woman boasted.

Rouge has a cold face, she doesn't like people to praise her for her beauty.

No one to rely on, no money, no power, no power, beauty is the original sin.

The old doctor took Yan Zhi's pulse, asked a few words, looked at her face, and wrote a prescription with a pen. Before Xia Mubing reached out, Wen Er took the prescription cleverly.

"This young lady probably got caught in the rain and caught the wind and cold. She has a little fever and her body is very weak. This prescription is for warming and slow nourishing. The medicine is more expensive. I'm afraid she won't be able to take the strong medicine." The doctor explained.

Xia Mubing nodded, and Wen Er followed suit, "I'll help you get the medicine, and I'll bring it to you when it's ready."

Both the doctor and Wen Er left, and the mother-in-law left the room wisely. With 15 copper dollars a day, she wished she could do a little less work, and she got the money anyway.

"Where are you from?" Rouge asked, seeing that Xia Mubing didn't speak, she continued, "Since you regard me as a substitute for the girl you like, and you are raising a useless person like me, at least tell me who the girl you like is Where are you from?"

"Peking." Xia Mubing said.

Yan Zhi was taken aback, and said: "That's really far away, Beiping was originally at the foot of the emperor, which official's daughter do you like?"

Xia Mubing didn't answer.

"How long do you plan to keep me?" Rouge continued to ask.

Xia Mubing remained silent.

"10 days? One month? Half a year? Or a year?" Rouge laughed as she spoke, "Mother Chen has raised me for two years, and she thinks I'm a good seedling, who will definitely become her cash cow in the future. Even when she jumped off a building and became paralyzed, she couldn’t bear to part with me as a good youngster, and even sent me to a Western hospital, where the foreign doctor said I couldn’t be cured before throwing me away.”

"Are you saying that I am fatal? The foreign doctor threw me into the pile of dead people. I was lying there waiting to die, and someone came to save me." Yanzhi lay on the bed, and suddenly opened the chat box, looking for someone say.

Xia Mubing sat on the chair and looked at her, without making a sound, and let her speak by herself.

"My younger brother is a fool. When I was sold to Hongxiu Pavilion, I didn't eat and wanted to starve myself to death. Every day, I poured the food out of the window, and he picked it up outside. Later, when my mother found out, she hung me up and beat me. At that time, I was very happy and thought that I would be beaten to death, but I was rescued by foreign doctors again."

"I just threw away food for a few days, and he thought I was kind to her, dig me out of the dead, take care of me, a paralyzed person, fight with others, steal things, rob things, do everything, even if I am beaten by others Even with a broken leg, you still don’t forget to fetch water for this trash.”

"Do you think he is a fool? I just threw away the food for a few days and he thought I was good to him. I don't remember who I threw the food to, but he always remembers."

"But he left you anyway." Xia Mubing said suddenly.

Rouge turned her head, looked at Xia Mubing, and smiled.

"It's not that he left, it's that he's finally enlightened and smart. Taking care of me, a paralytic, will only drag him down to death. He's also twelve or thirteen years old. He can live well without me."

"How old are you?" Xia Mubing asked.

"Fourteen." Rouge said, "What about you?"

"Twenty-two." Xia Mubing said.

"Then you're done. The lady from the rich family you like must have already married." Yan Zhi looked at the window frame, "It's time for me to get married too."

"I'll ask Wen Er to cook a bowl of porridge for you." Xia Mubing said, and left.

After that, Rouge didn't talk to him much.

Maybe I didn't want to say it at the beginning, but I couldn't say it later. The first day was fine, but after taking the medicine, Rouge's condition suddenly worsened.

Wen Er invited the previous doctor over again, and the old doctor had no choice but to give Rouge a strong dose of medicine.

Before leaving, he said to Xia Mubing at the door: "Mr. Xia, Miss Yan Zhi's body may not be able to hold on to this strong medicine. She can live after these few days, but if she can't, she can only resign herself to fate, and neither do I." Solution. If it doesn’t work, you should send her to a foreign hospital, the foreign doctor may have a solution.”

Xia Mubing originally wanted to listen to the doctor's advice and send Rouge to the hospital, but she has been burning groggy for the past few days, and Rouge, who is not even conscious, is still very resistant to the hospital. She refuses to go to the hospital, and refuses to drink the medicine .

Jiang Feng couldn't remember how long he had stayed in this memory, until Wen Er came to remind Xia Mubing that the train would leave tomorrow morning, and asked him if Yan Zhi could get on the train in his current body, and if he wanted to rebook the ticket, It wasn't until Jiang Feng realized that he had stayed in this memory for more than a week.

This morning, Yan Zhi's condition has improved, and she has become more energetic. She might be able to take the train again depending on her posture.

Rouge heard what Wen Er said to Xia Mubing in the room, and when Xia Mubing came in, she said weakly, "If I'm dying of illness on the train, just throw me off the train."

Xia Mubing ignored her.

"Xia Mubing, I'm serious, you've spent enough money on me these days, it's enough for you to go to the traffickers and buy a few nice little girls, I'm just a short-lived foreigner, destined to die Long, don't spend more money and effort on me, it's not worth it." Yan Zhi said.

"You're not from Xingcheng." Xia Mubing said, "Do you know where I'm taking you?"

"Where are you going? Magic City? Or Mountain City?" Yan Zhi asked.

"Peking." Xia Mubing said.

Rouge was stunned.

"Do you want to go?" Xia Mubing asked.

Yan Zhi looked at him, and after a long time, said: "I think."

"I dream of going back."

"Xia Mubing, do you know me?"

"I know you." Xia Mubing said.

"But I don't know you, who are you?" Rouge looked at him, her eyes were sad like never before.

Xia Mubing didn't speak.

"I'm hungry."

"I'll get you porridge." Xia Mubing turned to go out.

"I don't want porridge, I want chicken wrapped in vegetables." Yan Zhi said.

Xia Mubing paused, and said, "Okay, I'll make it for you."
