Empress Dowager Empress Dowager

Chapter 139 It's just right for her
Hearing her words, the ragged beggar seemed to have made up his mind and discarded all dignity. He raised his head, met Huo Mingzhu's eyes, and said, "There is a famine in Shuzhou. My sister and I are street performers." To make a living, I traveled to Beijing a few days ago, my sister died of a serious illness, I begged the lady to give me a coffin to wrap her body, so that my sister would not have nowhere to rest after death. Fang Tieyi is willing to sell himself as a slave, please let the lady do it!"

Stopping cars on the avenue just to pray for my sister's burial is really pitiful.However, Huo Mingzhu didn't sympathize with him too much, but said to Sulu: "Give him ten taels of silver, enough to add a decent coffin."

"Yes, Miss." Su Yu's heart was very good, she immediately jumped out of the carriage, and put ten taels of silver in the man's hand, "Take it and bury your sister. We have to hurry, you let me Let it go."

The man got the silver, but did not leave immediately, but stood there watching Huo Mingzhu, as if struggling, suddenly bent one knee, knelt down in front of Huo Mingzhu's carriage, and said in a deep voice: "Ms. Fang Tieyi will never forget your kindness, and after burying my younger sister, I will repay her kindness."

What he said was sincere, but Huo Mingzhu was not moved by it, let alone took it to heart: "No need, you just go your own way, you don't need to repay. Sulu, let's go."

She said, urging Su Hui.Whether it's giving money or giving sympathy, Huo Mingzhu has always had an unruly attitude. She died tragically in the last life, and her heart was very cold. She will never give birth to sorrow because of one or two people. People always have their own in life. Difficulties, she doesn't need those rewards, she just doesn't want anyone to block her way.

The man named Fang Tieyi hurriedly stepped aside, still kneeling, holding the ten taels of silver in his hand, until the carriage rattled past him and gradually disappeared in front of him, he got up and picked it up again. I left my sister and went in the opposite direction.

"This world is really chaotic. Some people are full all day long, while others starve to death. Miss, I saw that the man just now is a good man. The man knelt down and begged for his sister's burial. He lost all face." like bad guys.

Huo Mingzhu smiled: "If he is really a man, how many ways can he earn money, sell himself as a coolie, do everything, and kneel before strangers, what is it?"

"Anyway, in the eyes of the young lady, there is no real man except Young Master Yunxi. Not every man is as noble as Young Master Biao, and he has a heroic background. There must be mortals." Su Yu wanted to complain about that man. .

The master and the servant said a few words about the beggar, but no one remembered it after that, but they just dropped some money on the road, and they really didn't take it to heart.

The carriage quickly entered Shangjing City, went to Zhuque Street, and returned to the General's Mansion in Tsing Yi Lane.

"Pearl!"

As soon as the carriage stopped, Huo Mingzhu bowed out and saw a person standing at the door. The person was wearing a brand-new gauze skirt and a brand-new silk flower on his head. It could be seen at a glance that it was a top-grade silk flower. The man's look, the young and beautiful face glowed with a different kind of light, it can be seen that there is a happy event.

"Cousin." Huo Mingzhu called out.

The beaming person is Yu Tong.

Huo Mingzhu got out of the carriage, walked up the steps, and said with a smile, "Why is Cousin waiting here? The sun is in full swing, so I'm wearing sunscreen."

Yu Tong said with a smile: "I have nothing to do at all, I remember you coming back today, so I will wait for you here. How is it, have you been tired from the journey?"

When Yu Tong said this, his face was blushing uncomfortably, Huo Mingzhu could see it, but Liu Er, the girl next to Yu Tong, covered her mouth and snickered.

Huo Mingzhu knew that there must be a reason, so she asked Liu'er with a smile: "You masters and servants, one of you is smiling and radiant, and the other is secretly happy. Liu'er, tell me, what's going on? Is there something in our house? Happy event?"

"Liu'er, don't say it!" Yu Tong blushed and covered Liu'er's mouth in reproach.

But with this demeanor, it is clear that she will not hide it, and Liu Er is also a master who can read words and expressions, so she sold her young lady immediately, and smiled at Huo Mingzhu: "Miss Mingzhu, you are right, today Mr. Xu came to the door and invited my lady to enjoy the spring, and just sent my lady back. My lady felt that it was time for you to come back, Miss Mingzhu, so I waited here for Miss Mingzhu..."

"Oh... so it's not that I came here to wait for me, but because I want to send my lover..." Huo Mingzhu nodded knowingly, her smile full of jokes.

"You damn girl, see if I won't twist your mouth! Let you talk nonsense!" Yu Tong blushed even more, and the well-known secret was shaken out. She was afraid that people would know, and she was afraid that people would not know. How could Huo Mingzhu think this way? Will not be clear?
Yu Tong and Liu'er, master and servant, made a fuss, while Huo Mingzhu smiled at the side, interjected a sentence from time to time, and made another fuss.Ji Sulu's expression was unnatural, and she quietly asked Huo Mingzhu: "Miss, is Xu Junru really dating Miss Yu? But he..."

She is an honest girl, and she has always sympathized with Yu Tong ever since she knew that Xu Junru had a habit of cutting off her sleeves. Seeing that Yu Tong and Xu Junru had made progress, she became even more worried.

The Xu family wanted to hug their grandson, Huo Mingzhu had expected early on that since Xu Junru had taken a fancy to Yu Tong, she would only continue to pursue her. During the few days when she left the General's Mansion to go to Qingquan Temple, she was also trying to get rid of the suspicion and let them The relationship between the two is getting better.

"Do you remember what I told you before? Don't startle the snake. After two days, I will have a way to teach that man a lesson and make my cousin completely give up. Now my cousin is very happy, how can I say it?" Huo Mingzhu Whispered to warn Su Ling not to speak up.

"Oh..." Su Yu was naturally obedient, and gave a muffled hum.

"Cousin, you are so happy, is it that you are getting close to something good with Mr. Xu?" Huo Mingzhu walked away from Su Yu's side as if nothing had happened, and asked Yu Tong with a smile.

"Mingzhu, don't listen to that girl Liu'er's nonsense, Mr. Xu invited me to enjoy the spring, but... but other things, it's still early!" Yu Tong hurriedly explained.
