[Red Chamber] Buddhist concubine

Zhou Yao carefully examined her state of mind. She felt that she was willing to let go when she did not time travel. There may be two reasons.One is that she has already given birth to two daughters. In the Lin family, this is her biggest guarantee and hole card. As long as she has these two daughters, she will be considered a god in the Lin family. As long as she does not touch the bottom line, she will never What will someone do to her.

The second is that Zhou Yao already has the foundation to settle down.

Although now she can only sell the stories she wrote to teahouses for storytellers, but cannot actually publish them, but in fact she doesn't mind too much.Even in modern times, publishing such a thing is an elusive dream for many online novel authors. As a half-way monk, Zhou Yao really doesn't have much obsession with whether her novels can be published in book form. .

What she cares about is whether writing novels by herself can make money.

The fact is that she made a lot of money from the novel "The Widow".

No matter what era you are in, if you are economically independent, you will naturally have enough confidence.

Although she still relies on the Lin family for food and drink now, Zhou Yao already has her own source of income and is no longer the dodder flower attached to the Lin family. Being able to live a very nourishing life by herself, without all the worries when she just traveled, she naturally developed the courage to say no to things she didn't want to do.

If it wasn't for her own bottom line, Zhou Yao would even feel that life is pretty good now——

There are two lovely babies, luxurious food and gourmet food, servants to serve, and their own careers and pastimes.Except for all kinds of modern electronic products and not being able to go out casually, her living standard today is much higher than in modern times.

Thinking about it this way, Zhou Yao paid more and more attention to her novel career.

So by the next day, Zhou Yao's desire to write novels was at an all-time high.Without Cui Palm urging her, she picked up a pen and paper and started writing after breakfast.

……

While rubbing the bruise around his mouth, Lu Sheng walked back happily, holding the reward silver from the nobleman.

I was lucky today, I didn't plan to talk about it when I met a scoundrel, I didn't even lose the booth, and I got the favor of the nobleman for no reason, I got a good opportunity, if he can seize the opportunity, it will be easy for him to rise to the top in the future.

Because the future is promising, Lu Sheng's footsteps are full of wind, and his whole body is in high spirits and full of ambition.

Unexpectedly, half way home, he met an orphan girl who sold her body to bury her father.

If it was normal, Lu Sheng would definitely not even glance at it.They are all ordinary people at the bottom who are struggling to survive. Who doesn't know the tricks of each other to make a living?Orphan girls like this kind of self-selling, most of them rely on their good looks and want to climb high, but suffer from no connections, so they direct and act in such a play.

The so-called selling one's body to bury one's father is just to make oneself look a little pitiful, and it is easier to arouse the pity of those rich people.

Those "fathers" who are about to be buried are very few real relatives of the orphan girl, but most of the rest are fake.Some found the body of a homeless man randomly, some rented and bought it from someone who died, but some of them...

It's just pretending to be a living person!

Lu Sheng has long been familiar with such tricks, so naturally he can't feel any sympathy.

Today, however, things are different.

Looking at it from a distance, Lu Sheng always felt that the woman kneeling in front of the corpse looked familiar, she looked a lot like his neighbor's daughter.

He stepped forward and asked carefully, "Is it Yun Wan?"

Zhao Yunwan looked up and found that Lu Sheng was standing in front of her, her expression changed drastically, and she immediately got up to run.

Lu Sheng grabbed him: "Yun Wan, why are you here?"

He lowered his head and found that not only Zhao's father's body was placed in front of Yun Wan, but Zhao's mother's body was also there.

But when he went out to set up a stall in the morning, Zhao's parents were obviously fine!

"Yunwan, how could uncle and aunt..."

Zhao Yunwan was ashamed to see people, so she turned her back to Lu Sheng and cried in a low voice: "Father and mother went out to look for work today, but unexpectedly, they were knocked to the ground by a speeding carriage. He was knocked half to death on the spot, and both of his father's legs were broken. The father was violent and stopped the carriage to argue with the owner. Unexpectedly, the owner of the carriage didn't care about human life at all, so he drove the carriage directly from his father's house. I ran over it. When my mother heard about it after waking up, she was also pissed off..."

Zhao Yunwan lowered her head, and said that her relatives robbed her property, coveted her beauty and wanted to sell her into a brothel.

"Brother Lu, Yun Wan really has no choice but to come up with such a way to restrain her parents' corpses."

Lu was angry and anxious: "Why didn't you come to me?"

Although the two families did not form a friendship because of Zhao's father's obstruction, the friendship between the two was not fake at the beginning. Could it be that he is so unworthy of Zhao Yunwan's help?

Zhao Yunwan cried uncontrollably: "Brother Lu, Yunwan knows that you are a good person, but my relatives are not easy to get along with. Besides, you only earn a few hard-earned money every day, how much savings do you have?"

Lu Sheng opened his mouth, thinking that he used to spend money when he had money and never knew how to save it, and suddenly felt annoyed.

No wonder Yunwan didn't ask him for help...

He was a little ashamed, when he moved his hand, the silver jingled.

Lu Sheng's eyes lit up: "Don't be sad, Yunwan, I have money!"

Zhao Yunwan only thought that Lu Sheng was making her happy, and endured the discomfort to persuade him: "Brother Lu, Yun Wan is quite pretty, if someone from a noble place takes his fancy, he should be able to buy it at a good price, when the time comes, my parents... "

"I'm really rich!" Lu Sheng walked around in front of Zhao Yunwan, holding the money bag and shaking it.

Zhao Yunwan raised her head with tears in her eyes, suddenly both happy and worried: "Brother Lu, where did you get the money..."

……

Zhou Yao wrote in one breath that Lu Sheng became an official and encountered the first catastrophe in his life.At this time, it was already dark.

Hong Zong hurriedly said: "Aunt Yao, please stop writing, the sky is already dark, if you continue writing foreshadowing, it will be bad if you hurt your eyes."

After Zhou Yao finished writing the last few words, she quickly put down her pen and ink.

Although there was glass in ancient times, there was not enough technology to make glasses with the right prescription. She didn't want to be blind.

The corner of Hong Zong's mouth was filled with a smile: "Aunt Yao went to wash up first, and went to see the two girls before dinner. Today, the two girls went to the old lady's yard to play for a long time, and they have been arguing for you to hug since they came back. , It was the mammy who saw that you were serious about writing and fooled people. Now that the two girls have eaten complementary food and drank milk, no matter how much they coax them, mammy won’t sleep, and is just waiting for you to go over and coax them.”

Because Cang Jin Danyu stayed by Zhou Yao's side most of the time, he was very attached to her.It was her negligence that she was so obsessed with writing novels today that she forgot to interact with the two little guys.

Zhou Yao nodded and smiled, walked to the side to wash and went directly into the back room.

As Hong Zong said, the two girls were sitting on her bed, frowning and yelling, their four little hands flaunted their power at Nanny Guo, who was coaxing them, and slapped the quilt as if in anger. snap.

Zhou Yao still finds it strange, the two sisters are a little big and their hands are weak, how can they still make a sound when they pat the bed?

She walked over to take a look, only to find that the voice came from Nanny Guo's mouth.

Zhou Yao bared a smile: "When did Mammy learn ventriloquist?"

Nanny Guo turned her head, shook her head and sighed at Zhou Yao's joking gaze: "Didn't Aunt Yao say that? Life is not easy, you have to work hard!" When I was a ventriloquist, the other party taught me a skill, which is not a unique skill, but it is quite useful for amusing children."

Zhou Yao sat on the edge of the bed, picked up Dan Yu in her arms, and put Cang Jin beside her, and she was relieved when the two smiled.

The two sisters lay on Zhou Yao's body for a while, they seemed to be bored, and they clamored to play on the bed by themselves.Zhou Yao had no choice but to carry her back to a distance. The two grinned and giggled at Zhou Yao, and then began to pat the quilt again.

Mother Guo didn't pay attention at first, so she didn't "dub" the two of them.

The expressions of the two sisters froze for a moment, and they turned their heads to look at Zhou Yao neatly. Even their bewildered expressions were the same, as if they were asking why Zhou Yao had no voice.

Zhou Yao laughed out loud immediately: "Nurse, quickly dub them, hahaha..."

She remembered that the two sisters always liked to hear the sound of clapping hands. In order to make the two sisters happy, Red Palm and Emerald almost slapped their hands until they were slightly swollen every day.Every time Zhou Yao saw each other, she would just let them fool around.Who knows that Red Palm and Emerald Palm are more serious, always saying that this is what they should do, and they refuse to listen to it no matter what.

Later, the two sisters may be tired of listening to it, or their interests have expanded, and they like any kind of slap sound.

And the two sisters also fell in love with the sound of themselves clapping things.

Mother Guo was worried that the baby would be tender and hurt, so she would always put several layers of soft cloth on the things.However, the sound produced in this way is a bit dull and not crisp enough. The two sisters don't like it very much.

Now it seems that Mother Guo has found a way to deal with the two sisters.

Zhou Yao blinked, and curiously learned from Nanny Guo, but found that the voice she made was very distorted. After a few times, she simply gave up.

"Namma is still amazing." Zhou Yao admired from the bottom of her heart.

Guo Nanny smiled at the corner of her mouth and bowed her head in silence.Where is it great?When they were in the palace, as long as the master needed them, they had to learn various skills as servants. The faster they learned, the more they would be reused, and their lives would be more secure.

Everything is just to survive and be forced.

Zhou Yao turned around and started playing with the two children again.

After the two sisters were finally exhausted and fell asleep, Mother Guo said, "My aunt has written the beginning of nearly [-] words now, right? Should I go to the shopkeeper of the teahouse and discuss the various regulations of this story? "

Zhou Yao was stunned: "It seems that we can discuss the terms of cooperation with the teahouse." She thought for a while, then simply said, "It's still the same as before, you and Hong Zong make up your mind behind, let Qing Liu come forward."

Guo Nanny nodded helplessly with a smile: "The old man takes orders."

Zhou Yao was talking about the new book, but the restaurant was still talking about her old novel "The Widow".

"Shopkeeper, why don't you just walk around in front of the store? If customers see you like this, they might think our teahouse is going to collapse!"

The shopkeeper turned around: "Go, go, what are you talking nonsense! Is it possible to talk nonsense like this?"

Mr. He leaned against the counter and smiled helplessly: "Then you should be more peaceful."

The shopkeeper sighed: "I really want to, but the idle king won't allow it!"

Since the last time Tu Min came to the door and said that he would publish a book for Mr. Meng Honglou, because he didn't get an approval, he sent people to the door three times a day to invite him four times. People came to the door, and they didn't even send anyone to collect the dividends they got during these days.He only said that after the new article was written, he would take it away together.

The shopkeeper was almost driven crazy.

"Otherwise, I'll go to Lin's house to intercede with my wife?" The shopkeeper turned his head and looked at Mr. He seriously.
