"Sister in law..."
"Rouge, if it wasn't for your face, last time I Ah Please let me go, let Xiaowu go Xiaowu is only five years old. If he keeps it, he will be killed sooner or later when he is drunk! "
The grief that the woman said, thinking of her poor son, was another worry, and she wanted to go anyway.
The rouge was silent for a while. The woman patted her hand and wanted to open it. However, the rouge held her sleeve tightly.
"Sister in law This is the salary I just received. There are also some jewels that the ladies reward. It's not much. Take it
"This..."
"It's my elder brother. I'm sorry. How can you have no money on you? It's autumn and it's cold. Make two clothes for Xiaobao. Don't freeze Sister in law I'll see you and Xiaowu when I'm free. "
The meaning of this is to let her go, and to see her and Xiaowu in the future, or to be a family?
With tears in her eyes, the woman nodded, took her purse, stuffed it into the bag, and turned away.
Alone left Rouge a person, drooping eyebrows, eyes flashed a loss, a drop of tears will slide down the corner of the eye.
While crying, he cleaned up the house inside and outside.
Looking up, it was late. He wiped the corner of his eye and went out of the yard.
Just opened the door of the courtyard, then froze.
Who is Su Yueru?
"Little Miss... "
Rouge is a little flustered. Why is miss here?
Su Yueru smiles and reaches for her.
"Crying?"
Nose red, eyes red, Pian that person also shook his head said.
"No
Su Yueru didn't tear her down, but she took another packet of silver from gouache. After weighing it, there were about one hundred taels in it.
"Send these to your sister-in-law later."
Rouge Leng for a while, eye circles more red, quickly carrying skirt will kneel down.
Fortunately, Su Yueru grabbed her hand first.
"Miss Do you know all about it No need to It's not worth it... "
"What's worth it or not? It's only a hundred Liang. It's just a drop in the bucket for you, miss. If you send it, it may not be worth it to others, but it's worth more or less to you."
Su Yueru does not deny that there is a suspicion of buying people's hearts in her words,
but if she was someone else, she would not necessarily do so.
Sure enough, I saw rouge red eyes, a look of gratitude, these silver, enough for their mother and son to eat and drink for several years.
"Miss, I want to go to my big brother first."
"Do you know where people are?"
Rouge pursed lips, thought a little, said.
"Either in the pub or in the gambling house."
Su Yueru looked at the next day, but it was not time for dinner, so she should not be in the pub.
And that person so hastily robbed the money to leave, most likely is in the gambling shop.
"Do you know the gambling shop he often goes to?"
Rouge nodded.
"It should be the nearest gambling shop here. I caught him there several times before, but I can't change his bad habit. Now it's OK. My wife and children are separated!"
Rouge's eldest brother is Wang Hu. He is fond of mouth cat urine. He is also a carpenter who works separately. In the end, he still earns a little money. It's enough to supplement his family. It's just that when he worked two years ago, he broke his leg and it's inconvenient to work. In order to watch his leg, he spent most of the money at home.
I can't afford medicine. In order to relieve the pain on my legs, I went to buy inferior wine mixed with water and poured it down. When I feel paralyzed, the pain can be relieved.
Later, somehow, he became addicted to gambling, and then he became uncontrollable.
Su Yueru looked up at the four big characters of "lucky gambling shop" on the plaque. Two thick curtains were hung on the door, and the big gambling words were pasted on the windows on both sides.
In ancient times, gambling houses and brothels were legitimate businesses. Unlike in modern times, they all had to be secretive.
It is said that this ancient brothel woman has a certificate.
Let Rouge powder lift the curtain, Su Yueru went in.
There was a lot of noise inside. They were all shouts and shouts from the buyer.
The shopkeeper, who was dozing on the table, straightened up when he saw someone coming in.
"Girl, this is the place where the old men play. You are so Isn't that right? "
Su Yueru glanced at the short white gourd like shopkeeper and took out a ingot of silver from his sleeve.
"Just have money."
The shopkeeper's mouth was smashed. The gambling shop opened its door to do business. No matter who she is, it's OK to have money.
"Come on, what are you playing with? Do you want to change chips? "
Change chips?So much trouble.
"Then change it for a hundred taels of silver chips first."
There was a little disdain in the man's eyes.
"Miss, not everyone can play in this place. Some of you have to follow one thousand taels. You girls' family, you'd better not play."
In order to avoid losing crying.
Su Yueru's mouth is slightly crooked and draws two hundred Liang silver tickets.
"These chips are for my two servant girls to play with. If they lose, they lose. Miss Ben, twenty Liang is enough."
You want to play the game?
The tone is very big!
He handed the silver ticket to the boy behind him and said.
"Go and change the girl's chips."
He firmly believes that this girl is not a lady of a wealthy family, and she has no background. Which Lady of a wealthy family will make such a public appearance, or even come to such a place as gambling house!
Soon, the boy came over with two pallets, each of which was made of about 100 pieces of round wood the size of copper coins.
That's probably the chip.
"Thank you very much."
Let the rouge powder take the tray and go inside.
"What does your big brother usually play?"
Su Yueru lowered her voice and asked in her Rouge ear.
Rouge Shuiling's eyes turned around and said.
"The general bet size, is to roll dice, guess size."
The simplest, but also the easiest way to engage in gambling games.
Su Yueru nodded slightly and took 20 chips from the tray.
"The rest, you take it to play, it doesn't matter if you lose."
"Miss, this, this is not good. Let's go back. If we let madam and old lady know, we will have to blame again."
"Yes, miss, where are we women supposed to come here? They are all men. Let's go."
The rouge powder is a little timid. The men, one by one, show their arms, and the shirtless ones, some of them are ferocious and rude. Do you want them to squeeze into this group?
Both of them were embarrassed.
Su Yueru did not speak, just a faint smile.
It's normal for ancient people to have conservative ideas, but it doesn't mean that she has to comply with them.
"Just follow me. If you dare not, just wait for me outside."
