The fast-traveling girl has no feelings for her

Chapter 336 From Dancing Girl to General ([-])

From the small village where Babu's family is located to the nearest city, it takes about an hour to catch up on a bullock cart.

Along the way, the boys with twinkling eyes asked Bubba why he took his precious daughter into town.

To this, Babu replied, "Go to the city to do something."

This was a lot to say, and a boy who knew Bab's background gave a "shh", and whispered some nasty things to his companions, the content was nothing more than imagining how those rich and upper-class nobles in the city loved every beautiful woman. Get a beautiful concubine.

These words sound dirty and harsh, but they also faintly allude to Babu's father and daughter.

No matter how you say it, Babu has lived half his life. How could he not understand these dirty words from the countryside?
But the man in charge of driving the bus was also joking with these young people who spoke freely. I am afraid they are all familiar with each other.

In order to get this train to its destination, he had to suppress the anger in his heart.

Lin Shu saw that Babu, who was domineering at home on weekdays, suddenly became so patient, she couldn't help turning her head to look at him.

After the latter found out, she reached out and pulled her cloak hat down, and said in a bad tone, "Are you okay to see what I do? Girls, don't listen to these things!"

Lin Shu continued to lower her head after hearing this, even though the wide brim of the hat covered her face until only half of the veil remained.

The time along the way was not slow, but it was a bit difficult for Babu.

When he really entered the city and got out of the bullock cart, Babu breathed a sigh of relief. Now he finally didn't have to be angry with those little bastards anymore.

After Lin Shu got out of the car, she carefully looked at the surrounding environment.

She didn't look carefully when she was on the bullock cart, and only now did she realize that there was a polarized scene in the buildings in the city in front of her.

On her left side, there were rows of uneven earth-wood houses, stained a dirty khaki by the dust raised in the air.

And on her right hand side, that is, opposite to these houses, exquisite bungalow houses made of bricks and stones are lined up and connected together.

In these bungalows, there are special personnel responsible for taking care of the large open-air gardens, and the blooming flowers in summer attract many bees who come to greedily suck pollen.

The distance between the houses on both sides is actually the gap between the poor and the rich in this world. It seems that there is only a narrow street between them, but in fact, people on both sides of the road live in two different worlds. people in.

At this time, a group of guards who were in charge of patrolling the city passed by on the street, attracting the attention of many passers-by.

Before Lin Shu could turn her head to look, Babu, who had found the road, suddenly stopped her and said, "Alan, stop looking around and follow me."

He warned Lin Shu and then stepped forward to lead the way.

The two turned left and right along the way, crossed some potholed gravel roads, and entered a wide stone-paved road.

Then they climbed up the slightly sloping stone road, along the shady side of the whitewashed house wall, and finally came to the main entrance of a large private house.

This is the destination of Babu's trip.

After Babu took a deep breath, he stepped forward and knocked the door knocker three times in a row.

"dong dong dong~"

A moment later, the door opened, and a head with some gray hair protruded from the door. This man, who looked like he was in his 30s, slowly glanced at the two people outside the door with his cloudy eyes.

"Who are you? Who are you looking for?"

Babu recognized that this person should be the servant of his cousin, and most of them are also of the same level as his family, so he should not be treated as the other person's current level.

So he quickly took out a small bag from his sleeve, stepped forward and handed the bag to the man, and politely replied, "Hello! I'm Babu Gup from Heyuan Village Ta, I have something to find Lord Tosang in your residence. I am a distant relative with Lord Tosang, you only need to convey my name and origin to him."

Originally, this uncle of Babu was only from a Vaisya background.But the other party has been doing business with the people of the Great Britain Company in the city in the past few years, opened a large factory, made a lot of money, and successfully tried various methods to raise his status by more than half.

"Are you a distant relative of Master Tosan?"

As the concierge said, he took a closer look at Babu's appearance.

After he received the small bag that Babu handed over, he changed hands and weighed it a few times before putting it into his sleeve.

Then he raised his chin and said to Babu, "You wait here first, I'll go in and report."

After the concierge finished speaking, he closed the door again, and Babu nodded and bowed again and again, watching the other party leave, even though the other party almost knocked the knocker on his face when the other party closed the door.

During the time waiting for the porter to come out, Babu kept a humble and anxious look, lingering at the door waiting for the doorman to come back and open the door.

In fact, even he himself didn't know whether his well-developed cousin would agree with him. Even if they met each other, it was hard to say whether the other party would be willing to help his family, Alan.

He can only take one step at a time now.

As for whether Alan can be sent to a higher position in the end, he has to do his best first.

While Babu was waiting anxiously, Lin Shu stood not far from him, carefully looking at the figure with a slightly bent back and the prematurely aging face covered with wrinkles.

Is what Babu is doing now only for the sake of himself and his family, or is he also thinking about the future of the original owner?
Lin Shu guessed that maybe these two possibilities exist at the same time.

After the sun rose high, the city also became hot.

At first, there were gusts of cool wind blowing in the narrow alley, but later on, the sun dispelled the coolness of the ground, and the surface was as hot as freshly baked bread.

What Babu was worried about finally happened.

He took Lin Shu with him, and the two of them stood at the door of other people's house from morning to afternoon, but the concierge who took the benefits and went in never came out to show his face again.

Just when Lin Shu wondered whether Babu would be deceived, the door that had been closed for a long time in front of the two of them was finally opened again.

This time it was the concierge with white hair who came out.

He glanced at the two people outside the door with a slightly surprised expression, opened his mouth and changed his way, "Hey, are you two still here?"

After hearing this, Babu was about to ask something, but the concierge directly interrupted him, "Master Tosang has already said that he and those remote relatives in the countryside in the past have long since stopped contacting. He won't see you. Go back where you came from!"

As soon as he said this, Babu felt that his face had been humiliated. His face, which was originally somber, was now full of blood, and became even more black and red.
