"Guest officer, I've been looking for two taels of silver for a long time, but I don't want to pay it anymore?" The people in the capital are different, there are so many people coming and going every day, and the more people you meet, the more you think.It's also the younger brother, but it's an unusual reaction.

Chu Yutang was so anxious that his head was sweating, but he didn't bother to wipe it. He just rummaged through the package over and over again, wishing he could take apart the whole package and throw it on the ground to search it thoroughly.But the cruel fact was before her eyes, and she couldn't deny it.Now she is indeed penniless.

With a bitter face, he innocently looked at the contemptuous little brother, and the few strong men who surrounded him. It seemed that freeloaders often appeared in this restaurant, and they had long been prepared.She had never encountered such a predicament in Hangzhou City. After all, in the entire Hangzhou City, who would worry that the young master of the Chu family would renege on his debt?As long as she speaks, there are still many business owners who are willing to buy her a meal out of their own pockets, just as a gesture of friendship in the business field.

"Shopkeeper, my purse was stolen, so I can't pay the bill for the time being. I wonder if you can let me sign the bill, and I will pay it back later?" Chu Yutang swallowed, and asked tentatively.

The waiter in the shop sneered and said, "I expected you to say that. You can't afford the two taels of silver now. How can you get the money in a few days? Don't think that you can come to cheat if you are well-dressed." Lie to drink, the young master is here, and the people who watch it every day are more than the rice you ate just now!"

Chu Yutang listened carefully, and followed the train of thought of the younger brother, and replied: "I didn't order rice just now, but I ate crystal buns and sweet-scented osmanthus cake."

The waiter who was about to roll up his sleeves to intimidate Chu Yutang, choked on her throat when she said this, and suddenly lost his momentum, his face twitched so ugly.But he couldn't really grab Chu Yutang and punch her a few times, after all, this is an important place in the capital, and everything must be done according to the law.Moreover, there are often dignitaries here, if it gets out, it may damage the reputation of the restaurant.

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Chu Yutang thought that he had made a mistake.Taking advantage of the gap, I tried to turn my head to peek at the empty plates on the table, making sure that what I just ate did not have rice.The shop boy, who was completely broken by her actions, could no longer tolerate this unusual bad guy, and waved his hands to the thugs to drag him down, preparing to deal with it slowly in the backyard.

"Wait a minute." A clear male voice came from the corner.

According to the reputation, the handsome young master Pian Pian was sitting at the table, it seemed that he had watched a good show for a while.There was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, but his dislike for the shopkeeper was smoothly revealed between his brows.

"It's inconvenient for everyone to go out. Since this brother has explained the reason and is willing to sign the bill, it means that he doesn't want to renege on the bill on purpose." The person who spoke was Honglu Shaoqing Chen Moxun. The son of Chen Weidao, the imperial censor of the current dynasty.

Seeing Mr. Chen as a regular customer, Xiaoer naturally dare not neglect, but after all, it is a silver dollar, and no one is willing to take the risk of loss for no reason.The main reason is that Chu Yutang was born face to face when she saw it, and she was not a native of the capital at first sight. If she slipped away when she went out, she would have to pay back the signed bill by herself in the end.The more important thing is that he is afraid that others will follow suit. In this way, he will soon vomit blood and die.

"Since you are still worried, why don't you let me pay for this son's meal. You give me the bill he signed." Chen Moxun didn't want to embarrass the waiter, after all, two liang of silver is not enough for ordinary people. It doesn't come by hand.

This solution has been unanimously approved by everyone, and the waiter is naturally very happy, wishing for it.If Honglu and Shaoqing are willing to admit it, he doesn't have to embarrass Chu Yutang, after all, embarrassing a penniless person can't get a copper coin.

Chu Yutang, who was rescued from the siege, was very excited, and quickly thanked Chen Moxun.It's just that when Chen Moxun's gaze stayed on the bill she had just signed, she panicked again.As soon as she finished her words of thanks, Chen Moxun asked in surprise, "Hey, your name is Chu Yutang? But the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River, the son of the Chu family?"

Chu Yutang did not expect that his family's reputation had spread to the capital thousands of miles away, and he blamed himself for being negligent and signed his real name.But now it's useless to repent, so I had to pretend to be calm, and quickly waved my hands and said, "No, brother Chen is absurd. How can I have such a good fate, born in such a rich family. I have the same name. , the same name, hahahaha."

Chen Moxun looked at her calmly, and seeing her calm face, although she was a little nervous, she didn't seem to be avoiding lying, so she nodded secretly.The world is so big, there are so many people with the same name and surname.It was heard that the young master of the Chu family in Jiangnan was about to get married and formally take over the family business, so how could he appear in the capital at this time.

Chen Moxun saw that Chu Yutang had just arrived and had nothing to worry about, so he was afraid that it would be inconvenient for her, so he took the initiative to ask: "Brother Chu, is there anyone you know who can take refuge in the capital this time?"

Chu Yutang was annoyed at revealing his name, and now that he heard Chen Moxun's question, he dared not say another word, for fear that if he continued, his identity would no longer be concealed.After a lot of nonsense, I finally made it clear that I came to Beijing to join my mother's distant relatives, and the specific address was very clear.

"In this case, then Chen will not delay Brother Chu's search for relatives. The sky in the capital is dark early, so Brother Chu should act quickly." Seeing that Chu Yutang did not want to have a deep friendship with him, Chen Moxun did not force him, but kindly After a few reminders, he said goodbye and left.

"Hey? Hey! Brother Chen, I will definitely return the money I owe you as soon as possible!" Chu Yutang remembered this after walking a few steps away, and turned around quickly, seeing that Chen Moxun's figure had gradually merged into the crowd in the distance. Not standing on tiptoe and shouting.

Chen Moxun turned his head and waved at her, then turned around with a faint smile and continued walking forward.Chu Yutang lamented that when he first arrived in the capital, he experienced the worst thief, but he also met the best passer-by.This little episode did not knock Chu Yutang down, the most urgent task is to find his mother's distant relatives.Although she has lost contact with her for more than ten years, she is also in the blood of the Xu family after all, so if she were to be found, she would not be turned away.

It's just that she never expected that she managed to find Xu's house in Jiqingfang before nightfall, but it had already changed its name and owner.After inquiring carefully, I found out that as early as six years ago, the Xu family sold the house to pay off the debt due to business failure, and the family moved back to Jiangnan.

Chu Yutang was dumbfounded this time, he didn't expect that the person he came all the way to look for would turn back to Jiangnan.Now, she is really unaccompanied in the capital.The capital city is no better than Jiangnan. When the sun sets, the chill comes up.Chu Yutang, who was used to wearing thin silk robes, felt even more unbearable, and finally couldn't help but want to cry.

"Little brother, what's the matter with you? You can't go home even if you cry here alone. It's almost dark. If you don't go back, the road will be difficult."

The person who asked the question was named Liu Feng, who sold mutton in Renshoufang.Today I just came to deliver meat to a regular customer. On the way back, I saw a figure squatting in the dark, so I came to check.

"I can't find my home, I can't go home, woo woo woo." Chu Yutang raised his head and said pitifully, bewildered by a rough guy like Liu Feng.

Rubbing the back of his head helplessly, Liu Feng wanted to pull up Chu Yutang who was squatting on the ground, but stopped as soon as he stretched out his hand.After all, he knew that he was a rough person, and what he touched with his hands all day long were filthy things. Although the clothes worn by the person in front of him were not worth a fortune, they were definitely not something he could touch casually.

Seeing that she was pitiful, Liu Feng took Chu Yutang back to his home, and asked his wife Chu Sui to cook her a bowl of hot mutton soup to warm her body.After hearing what happened to Chu Yutang after entering Beijing, both husband and wife remained silent.

After all, they were ordinary people in the market, so it would be no problem to cook her a few more bowls of soup and eat a few more meals of mutton, but Chu Yutang went to Beijing to seek justice, so there was nothing they could do to help her.After thinking about it for a while, Chu Sui suggested, "Brother Chu, why don't you go to the Prime Minister's Mansion for a try?"

Hearing this, Liu Feng also patted the table to express his agreement, and then said: "Yes! Brother Chu, you go outside the Prime Minister's Mansion to try your luck tomorrow morning, maybe you can still have a chance."

Chu Yutang was puzzled and said, "The Prime Minister still cares about this matter?"

Liu Feng and his wife looked at each other, and then said: "You don't know, Miss Shi, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, got a strange disease two years ago, and no matter how it was treated, she couldn't get better, so the Prime Minister's Mansion opened the door to give alms on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. If you If you have the opportunity to pray, you may have the opportunity to be received by the prime minister."

Chu Yutang didn't expect such a miracle to happen in the capital. In order to cure his daughter's illness, the dignified prime minister not only kept distributing money, but was also responsible for fulfilling people's wishes?
