Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty
Chapter Thirty-Three You Are Not Human
King Fu Jiawei's other courtyard in the north of Daxiangguo Temple is now the residence of Guo Shao, the capital of Zhidu in the inner hall.
This house occupies a large enough area, but in a princely and wealthy family, it can only be regarded as a separate courtyard; even if it is a separate courtyard, it is full of generosity and exquisiteness. The house can be divided into three parts: the front yard and the main yard, a gatehouse in the middle, and a garden at the back; there may be dozens of houses in all. The gatehouse in the middle is built like a tower, with a square frame and smooth lines, and the closed corridor on the upper floor is like an arc of an arch bridge. The rough structure has a sense of beauty.
The back garden is centered on a pond, and a spring dug in the middle shows that the location of this place is exquisite. The deep groundwater flows out of the surface through this rare spring, forming living water; the living water is poured into the pond, and the water in the pond is connected to the drainage canal in Tokyo... Feng Shui is alive at once.
No wonder Empress Fu only let Guo Shao live without giving the title deed. Although the yard is not big, the queen may be a little bit reluctant when she makes a move.
Guo Shao brought Yulian here. Yulian was very happy today, and she whispered to him as soon as she got off the sedan chair, "I will repay you."
Guo Shao was also thinking about giving her another "surprise", and couldn't wait to call out Dong Wajiang and Dong Sanmei to "recognize" her... He had guessed that Dong Sanmei was Yulian's younger sister. A surname, and that place belongs to Gaoping. I remember Yulian once mentioned that her hometown is Gaoping, Hedong; then Dong Sanmei had an older sister who "married out".
There are many signs, so Guo Shao has reason to assume that Sanmei and Yulian are a family. Although it seems a bit of a coincidence when I think about it, Yulian used to be a maid in Li Shouzhen's family in Hezhong Prefecture, and she could meet them in Tokyo, and sometimes she couldn't be sure; besides, in Gaoping, there might not be many places with the surname Dong.
Unexpectedly, after the three met, they did not recognize each other. The three of them looked at each other, and Yulian and Sanmei even looked at each other. The atmosphere was really weird.
Looking at this situation, Guo Shao understood: it is not a family. If they were sisters who grew up, they should be able to recognize each other after a few years of separation; what's more, if Dong Wajiang was Yulian's father, an old man would not be able to change beyond recognition in a few years, and Dong Wajiang was not disfigured.
However, the elder and younger sisters stood together, and Guo Shao found that they did look alike... Precisely because he guessed that they were sisters, Guo Shao brought Dong Wa Jiang and his daughter back to Tokyo; Thinking about it this way, my guess has accomplished a good deed.
After a while of embarrassment, maybe Dong Wajiang also noticed that Yulian and Sanmei looked alike, so they started talking. As soon as I said it, I finally came to the relationship. I was really a person from the same place, and there was a bit of kinship, but they couldn't figure out which generation of the Dong family they were. Yulian's father and Dong Wajiang were acquaintances, and they worked together and served in corvee; speaking of it, Yulian's family is behind the mountain of Dong Wajiang's house, and there is a village called "Ao Shang". But according to Dong Wajiang, Yulian's parents died of illness and starvation when a disaster happened in her hometown a few years ago.
Dong Wajiang talked flatteringly for a while, and then couldn't help asking: "Is Yulian married to a good family? Is it the noble lady of the lord?"
Yulian pursed her lips and shook her head in denial. Her complexion was not very good, which may be the reason for hearing the news of her parents' death... But she didn't act too exaggeratedly, and she didn't say anything.
Guo Shao understood that they were just from the same village and not from the same family, so he immediately lost interest. When he left, he confessed: "I will not be at home in the future, and Yulian will have the final say here. You have to listen to what she says, and don't run around causing trouble."
Dong Wajiang nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes."
After finishing speaking, he handed some things brought back from the blacksmith shop to Yulian, and gave her a cloth bag, which contained some broken gold and silver, and fifty copper coins brought back from the front of the hall, all put in it. It is very inconvenient for him to carry a big bag.
He casually grabbed a handful of gold and silver and put them in his pocket, and said, "Yang Biao and the others found a shop and invited everyone to eat the water mat. I will pay first and come back in the afternoon. Lao Huang... lead the horse to the door."
Seeing Guo Shao grabbing out a handful of gold and silver, Dong Wajiang's eyes were straightened, and this guy didn't know how to hide it. Guo Shao glanced at him calmly, and didn't have time to pay attention to it for the time being, so he walked to the door and couldn't help but said to Lao Huang: "Dong Brick and I haven't been here for a long time, pay attention to this guy, and we'll talk about it when I come back."
"Hey." Lao Huang responded.
... Unexpectedly, it only took half a day, and when Guo Shao came home in the afternoon, something really happened. That Dong Wajiang took the opportunity to sneak into the inner courtyard, trying to find the bag of money hidden by Yulian. Unexpectedly, Yulian saw that he was not real, so she paid attention to it, and called Lao Huang in after a while, and caught the guy right away.
When Guo Shao came back, Dong Wajiang had already been tied up, and he was asking Guo Shao if he wanted to send him to the official shop.
The quiet and honest man, Lao Huang, also scolded: "It's a good life, but learn from that sneaky crooked way!"
Guo Shao also thought: Dong Wajiang's family is far away in the east of the river, and there is no one in the family. He is really barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes, and keeping them is a disaster; but Lao Huang is much more reliable. He has worked in the blacksmith shop for several years, not only has he been known for a long time.
Guo Shao turned his head and asked Yulian: "How does Yulian want to deal with him?" Then he waited for her answer with great interest.
Yulian frowned and said: "For the sake of my fellow countrymen, I'd better intercede for him, don't send him off."
Dong Wajiang thanked him a thousand times, saying that he was obsessed with money for a while.
Yulian said to Guo Shao again: "But you can't keep him in Guo's house anymore, this is Guo Lang's home, don't take random people into your home! Just drive him away."
Dong Wajiang hurriedly knelt down and begged: "Just give me something to eat. I was just confused for a while, and I will never dare again... Your father and I worked together before, don't you..."
"Shut up!" Yulian suddenly became very angry. She was usually a very quiet and kind person, but for some reason today, did she remember that she was betrayed? She became very angry: "You are not Guo Lang or something. It is just luck to give you a chance, and you want a second chance? I am begging for you not to send you to the official, it is the best of humanity!"
Guo Shao didn't say a word, but Yulian's words and deeds were clear and reasonable, which made him very satisfied.
He looked at Dong Sanmei again, the little girl was standing there pitifully, her face was pale, she looked frightened but at a loss. Guo Shao asked Yulian: "Where is Sanmei Dong?"
The little girl's eyes were filled with pleading immediately, and she took two steps towards Guo Shao. Guo Shao asked nicely, "Are you going to go with your father? Do you really have a father-daughter relationship?"
The little girl didn't hide anything, shook her head without hesitation, and whispered: "Father has no money, so he will definitely sell me for money."
After hearing this, Guo Shao looked at Dong Wajiang unceremoniously and said: "Sad, it's rare to see someone as sad as you, let alone outsiders, you can't even keep your own daughter."
He was polite to Dong Wajiang on the way, but once he knew that he had nothing to do with Yulian, he turned his back on him if he said it; even if Dong Wajiang didn't steal anything, he still had to leave here today, just for different reasons.
Guo Shao didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him, and he had a clear idea: it has nothing to do with me, can I control so much? If it's good for everyone, then don't do anything else, forget about charity, anyway, there are people who need charity assistance everywhere.
But this little girl, he really wanted to help her... Maybe it's because girls are more likely to win the sympathy of Guo Shao, a person with modern concepts. There is no way that Guo Shao is just an ordinary person. Even in modern society, if there is a tragic thing happened to a decent-looking little girl, it is obviously easier to sympathize with other similarly miserable people.
"Yulian?" Guo Shao was going to give her the greatest possible authority here.
Dong Wajiang cried immediately: "You can't do this! You bad bastard, third child, I've given you food and drink for more than ten years! If you don't know how to raise something, you would have killed you if you knew it!"
Yulian said: "People in every place have good and bad, this matter has nothing to do with Dong Sanmei. She doesn't want to leave with her father, so she can buy it."
Dong Wajiang stopped crying immediately, raised his head and said, "How much do you want to pay?"
Guo Shao's face was full of contempt, and he thought, "Won't you put on a little bit?"
He reached into his waist pocket and found a handful of broken gold and silver. It didn't cost much to have a banquet at noon, and there were nine tables of flowing water banquets in the shop, which was not expensive. Guo Shao then handed over the money in his hand: "Stop rambling, the world is in chaos, a person is worth less than a sheep, there is a lot here." He simply said: "If you keep rambling, believe it or not?"
"Letter! Letter!" Dong Wajiang was untied, holding the money in both hands impatiently. He was so happy and thankful, he slipped his mouth and said that he would be well-fed and hot for a long time... Then he turned around and left without even looking at Dong Sanmei; Dong Wajiang was so excited with so much money, he walked up and down, his words and deeds simply did not match his age.
"You are not human!" Suddenly, I heard Yulian curse emotionally. Guo Shao turned his head and saw tears in her eyes. She covered her mouth, turned her head and ran in.
Guo Shao looked down at the little girl who was much shorter than him, and the little girl also looked up at him, with a pair of bright almond eyes that were black and white, wide open, very innocent.
