Chapter 78 No Home
Walking all the way, Liu Mingzhi, who was hiccupping all the way, returned to the study, and the maid Ying'er was carefully making the bed: "Yeah, young master, have you finished your breakfast?"

Liu Mingzhi suddenly noticed that Ying'er was standing there pretty vividly, feeling a little shadowy. He rubbed his eyes and looked carefully to see that there was indeed only one person. After a meal, the phantom disappeared. Wouldn't it be risky to continue drinking tomorrow? ?This is really planning to practice a small trumpet, to mend people to death, 50-year-old ginseng soup, 20-year-old soft-shelled turtle soup, several big kidneys, thinking of these things that he just ate, Liu Mingzhi feels his body tremble uncomfortable.

"Ah! Young master, you have a nosebleed."

Liu Mingzhi, who was thinking about taking off his robe, touched it subconsciously: "It's a nosebleed, do you need to make it up like this?" At first glance, it was really a red nosebleed that stained his right hand.

Ying'er took out her handkerchief and was about to help the young master to wipe off the blood.

Ying'er took a towel, dipped it in cold water and wrung it out on Liu Mingzhi's face, the coolness gradually stopped the heat in her body: "Young master, is it okay to use two basins of water for cold compresses?"

Liu Mingzhi touched his face, and it seemed that it was not so hot: "Ying'er, let you put water on my face, you all sprinkled on my body, and it was very uncomfortable for wet clothes to stick to my body." After speaking, he twisted and twisted.

"Master, who made you twist and twist so dishonestly, it's strange that Ying'er is steady, the clothes on the table are all water stains, and Ying'er doesn't want to think about it, after twisting the towel for so long, she can't feel her hands anymore. You can't blame Ying'er for a little water."

Ying'er looked aggrieved and Liu Mingzhi didn't know what to say: "I don't blame you, I don't blame you, it's not because of my mother's tricks. I have to say, young master, that I lost weight in Yangzhou, and I can make up for that. Oh, the 50-year-old wild ginseng made the young master feel hot all over his body, and he felt as uncomfortable as scratching his heart with claws."

Ying'er couldn't help laughing when she saw the young master who seemed to have been subjected to the top ten tortures of the Qing Dynasty: "Young master, you are really in the midst of happiness and do not know happiness. Others have no chance to drink if they want to drink. Rather, young master, you should change your clothes first, so as not to catch a cold."

Liu Mingzhi said no after realizing it: "Yes, yes, change your clothes first, so as not to feel bad. It's not good if you catch a cold, Ying'er, change my clothes for Young Master."

Ying'er's face was ugly: "But Ying'er has never changed the clothes for the young master. Ying'er is afraid that it will be messed up. The young master should wear it by himself, and Ying'er will retire."

"Come and change my clothes for me. I really catch a cold. It's you who will wait for the young master after all the work."

Ying'er turned around reluctantly, pouting her lips one by one, taking off the wet clothes for Young Master Liu.

"Ying'er, if you are idle and bored, uncle blah blah, will the young master show you the goldfish?"

"No, I don't want to."

"It's interesting, come on"

"Master, these fish are really happy to eat, you see they all jumped out of the water."

Liu Dashao picked up the teacup and dipped the tea leaves, and looked at the cheering Ying'er with a relieved look.

"Of course, this is the bait carefully prepared by the young master using the formula in Qiqi 49. Even after thousands of years, shoals of fish will be crazy about it, let alone these native goldfish who have never seen the world. It's done."

Ying'er patted the bait in her palm, and leaned on the fence holding the corner of her clothes, watching the goldfish swimming in the water: "Master, why are you being so kind to Ying'er?"

"Of course, you are the young master's personal maid. Of course the young master treats you well. I can't treat the old man's maid, Ping'er. The old man can't kill me."

"Young master is the whole Jiangnan. No, the best young master in the world."

Liu Mingzhi put down the tea cup and carefully wiped the tears from the corners of Ying'er's eyes: "Silly girl, why are you crying? Young master didn't bully you when he turned back."

Ying'er couldn't help crying bitterly: "Master, Ying'er misses her mother and father, and her brother and brother."

Patting Ying'er's shoulder, Liu Mingzhi also sighed: "Your parents are still alive? The young master will take you to find them. Don't cry, don't cry."

"I can't find it. Ying'er doesn't even know where her parents are? I haven't seen them for six years, and I've never heard of them."

Liu Mingzhi's expression changed, and he vaguely thought of why. There are two types of servants in the Liu family. One is the servant who earns money in Liu's residence for a living, and the other is the servant who sold himself into the Liu residence. When the people of Liu Mansion die, they are the ghosts of Liu Mansion, and they are slaves from generation to generation.

"You were sold to Liu Mansion by your parents?"

"kindness."

"Then do you still know where your home is? What is the name of the village?"

"There is a long river in front of Ying'er's house. It is very beautiful. Every day at the moment of sunrise, the whole river is reflected in a bright red, but it is also very poor. The poor cannot eat or wear clothes. My parents’ clothes were passed on to my eldest brother, and my eldest brother’s clothes were passed on to me. After I wore them, I gave them to my younger brother. The clothes were sewn and mended for three or four years. My house is a thatched hut by the river. The roof was always blown out by the wind. At that time, it was extremely cold, hungry and cold. Ying’er clearly remembered that her mother’s hand was frozen. The little friends around never played with the three of us, because we Unable to bring out snacks to share with them, Ying’er opened her eyes every day to fish and cast a net with her father and elder brother, while her younger brother followed her mother to pick wild vegetables for a living.”

Alas, no one asks about the poor in the downtown area, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains. These words will always be so popular, and this world will always be so realistic.

"My eldest brother and younger brother have followed daddy into the city to sell fish. Every time they come back, they tell Ying'er what's going on in the city. Ying'er is very envious, and Ying'er also wants to go to the city to see what the eldest brother said. People come and go, look at the colorful life, but Ying’er has been envious for three years, and the elder brother also talked about it for three years. Ying’er dreamed of seeing what the city was like until Ying’er was ten years old. I don't know why the quarrel started, Ying'er was very frightened, because when Dad was angry, he always wanted to beat Ying'er to vent his anger, but that time, Dad didn't beat Ying'er. It's the first time I can remember that I've eaten so much."

Liu Mingzhi guessed that the reason for the quarrel was whether to sell Ying'er or not.

"Ying'er is very happy, Daddy is finally willing to take Ying'er into the city. Along the way, Ying'er is imagining what the city is like. Is it the same as Ying'er's dream? It turns out that life in the city is better than Ying'er. I dreamed of a better life, wearing colorful clothes, eating all kinds of snacks, and carrying all kinds of toys. At that time, Ying’er realized that this world is not just thatched cottages, broken fishing boats, and fishing boats. Patches of old clothes, and a lot of big houses, carriages, and big cities that Ying’er has never seen before, Ying’er really wants to stay here forever, even if it’s just for a look.”

"Father took me to the back of a big house, the house is really big, and the courtyard walls can't see the end at a glance. Father told me that if he wants to go out to do something, he will arrange Ying'er at a relative's house first. It's so big, Ying'er wears the same fancy clothes as everyone else, and eats food she has never eaten before. Although housekeeper Liu often beats Ying'er on the palm of his hand, he makes Ying'er well fed and warm, and her father beats and scolds Ying'er. At that time, Ying'er couldn't eat all day, and Ying'er thought at that time, Daddy must do things a little longer, so that I can eat more delicious food."

Liu Mingzhi's eyes were also a little sore, and the wind in Liu Mansion was a little noisy.

"But it's been too long. It takes six years to do this thing. Ying'er has eaten good food for six years, but Ying'er is homesick, young master, Ying'er is homesick. Liu Mansion is so big and there are so many houses, but here No parents, no home."
