Gu Chen looked at his clothes and dusted his sleeves angrily: "Sir, I don't look like a rich young man who can afford five thousand taels." He grinned playfully: "Subordinate I don’t have any good clothes, so why don’t you lend me a pair of clothes, lest the subordinates wear such rags and ruin the important matter of the master?”
Han Changmu looked at Gu Chen and heard Yao Yao say that this man was nearly forty years old, but looking at this extraordinary appearance, he still couldn't believe it.
Yao Yao looked at Gu Chen's appearance and burst out laughing: "Gu Shenxian, you are so good-looking and unparalleled. Even if you wear burlap clothes, you are still a noble son."
Gu Chen patted the top of Yao Yao's hair, gritted his teeth and said with a smile: "A Yao, your mouth is so disgusting that I can't even hate it."
Han Changmu looked away, took a deep breath, and said to Meng Sui: "Take Gu Chen upstairs to find some clothes."
Meng Suige's eyes widened and he led Gu Chen upstairs angrily.
Han Changmu asked Wang Xian to write down the address of Helian Wenyuan's house and gave it to Chen Gui. He said, "Go to this place and find a way to stop Helian Wenyuan so that he has no chance to go to Rouge Lane."
Chen Guiying claimed so and went out with the address.
Han Changmu turned to Yao Yao and said gently: "You will follow Wang Xian and the others to Rouge Lane in a moment. Don't go in, just stay at the entrance of the alley. If Chen Gui doesn't stop Helian Wenyuan, you have to try to stop him."
Yao Yao nodded, tilted his head and thought for a moment, then laughed: "Rouge Lane is full of beauties, I have to dress up more beautifully."
When Gu Chen changed his clothes and went downstairs, Yao Yao also dressed neatly. They looked at each other, both of them stunned.
Gu Chen wears a golden crown on his head and a sapphire-colored Shu brocade round-neck robe. The robe seems to have been tailor-made and fits perfectly. He wears an apricot-yellow moiré belt around his waist. He is as graceful as jade and has picturesque features. It is as conspicuous as an immortal.
Yao Yao, on the other hand, was wearing a half-worn gray dress, of which the material was hard to tell. His hair was disheveled, and he had two small hair tied hastily. His face was smeared with a layer of black ash, and he looked dirty. There is no facial expression.
Han Changmu was drinking tea. When he saw Yao Yao coming downstairs, he burst into laughter and sprayed tea all over Wang Xian opposite him. He barely held back and didn't laugh out loud.
Gu Chen pointed at Yao Yao and laughed loudly: "A Yao, you really are here. Who can tell what you look like with this appearance?"
Yao Yao said seriously: "It's best if you don't see the appearance." She looked at Gu Chen, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then turned to look at Han Changmu.
Gu Chen has a good foundation, and he looks so good even in such eye-catching clothes. Then Han Changmu has a better foundation than Gu Chen. If he puts on such bright clothes, he will be impressed.
She secretly regretted that she was obviously a young and handsome man, but he had to dress up like a dull, gray old man. He might as well look better wearing only a snow-white coat.
Yao Yao nodded and praised Gu Chen: "Gu Shenxian, when you dress like this, you really look like an immortal."
Gu Chen smiled heartily and was about to speak, but Han Changmu coughed slightly, sounding a little unhappy, and said slowly: "Okay, let's all go about our business."
Seeing a few people going out, especially the sapphire blue figure walking away, Han Changmu felt a little worried for no reason.
It turns out that today’s little girls like bright colors and rich colors?
He rubbed his brows.
No, she is not a little girl, she is already eighteen. Ordinary girls at this age may already have children.
As soon as it got dark, the smell of food wafted ahead. Yao Yao came back first. He hurriedly scooped out water to wash his face, smoothed his hair and combed it again. He panted and said, "Master, Wang Xian and the others brought Miss Hui with them." It is indeed her who is back. Although she looks much better than Meng Lan, her features and eyes are still somewhat similar."
Han Changmu handed over a cup of tea and said calmly: "Drink some tea. People will come later and I will ask more questions."
Yao Yao was not even surprised. She took the cup and drank it clean before she realized that it was Han Changmu who poured her the tea with his own hands. She smiled awkwardly. Before she could change her clothes, Wang Xian and others came back.
Miss Hui entered the courtyard and saw a young man sitting upright in the courtyard. His expression was calm but not angry, and his eyes were as sharp as knives. At first glance, he was someone who had been in a high position for a long time.
She had stayed in Rouge Alley for a year, and she still had some ability to recognize people. She understood that the people who redeemed her were also following orders and should be his followers.
She fell to her knees with a thud, lowered her head, and said nothing.
Wang Xian walked up to Han Changmu and handed Han Changmu the list of Miss Hui's body deed and status. He whispered in his ear: "A Yao has seen it, it's her."
Han Changmu nodded, silently looking at the word Meng Hui on the body deed, and after a while he said, "Your name is Meng Hui."
"Yes, Meng Hui from the slave family has met the young master." Meng Hui put her head on the ground and never raised it.
Han Changmu winked at Yao Yao. Yao Yao understood, stepped forward quickly, lifted Meng Hui's chin, revealing a beautiful face.
Because she didn’t bring any clothes out of Rouge Lane. The girl of seventeen or eighteen years old only wore a simple homely coarse cloth skirt and a neat Uighur bun. Her ears and neck were clean and not adorned. , even more so that she is all white and delicate, with lightly curved eyebrows like distant mountains with daisies, and apricot eyes as light and sad as the waves of autumn water, she is so beautiful that it can overwhelm a country or a city.
Han Changmu sighed deeply. No wonder it was worth five thousand taels. It was not a waste of money. If Helian Wenyuan couldn't redeem her, he would reluctantly stay.
Such a breathtakingly beautiful woman is the embryo that brings disaster to the country and the people. It is better to keep her here to bring disaster to yourself, and don’t let her go out to bring disaster to others.
He was stunned for a while, and saw that Meng Suigai and others were looking at him with something wrong. He also saw that Yao Yao was looking at her with a bit of ridicule and contempt, so he also despised his own look. Opening his eyes, he said calmly: "Who else is there in your family?"
Meng Hui was stunned for a moment and said softly: "The father of the Nu family died young, and there are also mother, one sister and one brother."
Han Changmu was almost certain that this person was the Ah Hui that Meng Lan was looking for, but he did not alert her and continued to ask. He just nodded and gave instructions: "A Yao, take her to wash up and change clothes. We will come down together later to have Mu Shi."
When Meng Hui heard this, she looked sad and disappointed. She thought that Han Changmu asked this because he wanted to send her home. It turned out that she had overthought it. He had spent five thousand taels of silver to redeem her. How could it be possible? Let her be reunited with her family easily.
Yao Yao took Meng Hui upstairs and found his own clothes for her. Not long after, the owner of the shop brought hot water. Yao Yao told her a few words before closing the door and going out.
Unexpectedly, Meng Hui grabbed Yao Yao, knelt on the ground, lowered her voice and cried: "Sister, sister, please, please help me send a message, send a message."
Yao Yao's heart skipped a beat, he bent down and pretended to be frightened: "Girl, don't do this. Do you want to run away? Don't hurt me. If I let you go, the young master will beat me to death."
Meng Hui shook her head with tears: "Girl, girl, I don't want to run away, I, I," she pulled off a piece of skirt, pursed her lips on it, and the red lipstick was printed on it, she said carefully He stuffed it into Yao Yao's hand and said the address in a trembling voice: "Girl, girl, please send this to this place and ask him to redeem me."
That address was exactly where Helian Wenyuan lived. Yao Yao didn't reveal anything on his face, but still said timidly: "Girl, our young master never does business at a loss. I heard that he spent five thousand taels." I bought you with silver, and if you find someone to redeem you, the young master will definitely charge a higher price."
Meng Hui was stunned and was speechless for a long time.
Yao Yao continued: "Girl, if the person you are talking about had five thousand taels of silver to redeem you, he would have redeemed you long ago. Would it still be our young master's turn? It seems that that person either has no money. , or just have no heart.”
Meng Hui shook her head, tears running down her cheeks, and she was almost breathless from crying.
In these short four years, she suffered a lot and passed through the hands of many men until she met him.
Although he was poor, his eyes were sincere. She was sure that he had not lied to her. He had her in his heart and wanted to redeem her wholeheartedly.
It's a pity that, God's will, she still can't escape the fate of being resold.
Yao Yao sighed secretly and continued: "Girl, our young master is actually very good. If you follow him, you will not be wronged, so don't think about anything else."
Meng Hui bit her lower lip hard, shook her head and cried: "No, no, I don't want to be like a toy anymore, being bought and sold by this person, sent around by that person, I, I want to be clean Marry someone innocently and live an upright life."
As if moved by Meng Hui's words, Yao Yao knelt down, looked directly into Meng Hui's eyes, and said seriously: "Girl, if you really trust that person, just wait two days to see if he will come to you." , if you can't wait for him to come, then make other plans."
Meng Hui nodded, yes, she has survived so many days and nights, are there still a few days left?
Yao Yao slowly went downstairs, and Meng Sui stood guard at the door instead. In fact, there was no need to guard anything. I think Meng Hui is a sensible person and understands her current situation very well. For a beautiful woman like her who has no wealth, walking out alone is like sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth. She doesn't know how many people will covet her.
Without a foolproof plan, she would not escape easily. It would be much safer to stay here than to live outside.
Yao Yao took a look at the cloth Meng Hui gave her to Han Changmu. Han Changmu smiled faintly: "Find a beggar and send this to Helian Wenyuan, and wait for him to beg us."
Yao Yao smiled, approached Han Changmu mysteriously, and smiled softly: "Master, were you thinking about taking this Meng Hui into your own hands?"
