Chapter 59 Floating Life 8 Sufferings

At night, after taking a bath, Hua Ziyao was leaning on the beauty couch by the window to blow the air, still holding a scroll in his hand, but he hadn't turned a page for half a day.

Li Dai had already left, and several maids and women were also driven to rest by him, only the monkey was still waiting in front of him.

Looking at the beauty under the lamp is already fascinated, and Hua Ziyao is born again. Although Hou Mingyuan has been looking at this face for nearly two months, he still feels that his bones are lightened at a glance. Seeing it at this moment Hua Ziyao was still in a daze, thinking that he was still thinking about the day's affairs, so he couldn't help but comfort him and said, "My lord, don't worry about it. That kid Xia Hai is no good. Did he see it? Even if he smashed his head today, Xia Hai can only bear it."

Hua Ziyao turned his head, his eyes were a little erratic, and he responded casually: "Oh? Really?"

Hou'er nodded: "That's natural! Last time the second master opened Xia Hai's ladle, and even His Royal Highness had a message, but it didn't matter in the end? So, it's all right."

Speaking of this, Hou'er became a little excited, and his mouth was full of foam: "That dude Xia Hai didn't even look at what kind of character our second master is, so he dared to bump into him so straight...Look at the crowd around him. Those bastards and rotten pigs, what the hell, it's our second master, the young prince of Prince Rui's mansion and the young master of General Mo's mansion who are friends with them, they are all people who are praised by everyone... ...." The implication is that my second master doesn't have anything to do with dandies at all.

Hua Ziyao finally came back to his senses, he couldn't laugh or cry, and said: "So the second brother and the son of General Mo's mansion are also good friends?"

Hou'er nodded his head again and again, and became more excited when he got energetic, and said hesitantly: "Young master, don't look at the second master's reputation outside the world, in fact, he is like the uncle, he is a person with a heart of a bodhisattva."

Hua Ziyao was finally surprised: "How do you say that?"

Hou Mingyuan scratched his head, and said: "I don't know if you have noticed, but I am not a domestic servant of the Li family. I followed the second master only later."

Hua Ziyao nodded. The servants who sold themselves to Li's house or domestic servants were all surnamed Li, but Hou Mingyuan kept his original surname, which was obviously an odd number.It's just that Hua Ziyao has never inquired about other people's preferences, so he never asked.

"Three years ago, there was a plague in the north. All my family members died, and I was the only one left. Moreover, I was also infected..." Hou'er drooped his head, obviously thinking about these things still made him feel sick. Sad in my heart: "I thought, ah, I'm going to die too... But when I gave up on myself and was about to die, the second master came and saved my life."

"The second master brought a lot of medicinal materials and food, and together with the uncle healed diseases and saved lives. The number of people saved was more than a thousand? I ate the steamed buns that the second master gave me, and then sold myself..."

"But I said, I don't want to change my surname. I'm the only seedling left in my family. I have to renew the incense for my father. The second master was not annoyed, probably because I was still smart, so he kept me. Later I became his personal servant..."

Hou Mingyuan wiped his eyes, shining brightly: "The great plague left many people homeless... When I followed the second master back to Beijing, I realized that there were thousands of people surrounded outside the capital, all of them were procrastinators." The family came here as a refugee...but the twelve gates in the capital were closed tightly, not allowing refugees to enter, and ignoring them...the second master was on fire at that time."

"Later, the second master and the uncle went to ask the abbot of the Puji Temple, the Great Monk Shikong, and built a thatched shed on the back mountain of the Puji Temple, and transferred a lot of bedding and food, so that the refugees were settled down. It's not going to cause any trouble..."

Hua Ziyao couldn't help but wondered when he heard this: "But how did I hear that a big businessman surnamed Jia subsidized the batch of food and bedding for the refugees?"

Hou'er said: "'Jia' means 'fake'. The second master said, what's the use of having those fake names? It's just a burden, so I found a fake name and used it.... I know, if it wasn't for the uncle who went there in person, who would have the face to make the great monk Shikong give up the entire back mountain to take in refugees? If it wasn't for the second master, who would have the financial resources and kindness to allocate food for thousands of people? The cost of accommodation?"

"Until now, those thatched huts are still erected there to house the homeless beggars, because it was built on the hill behind Puji Temple, we call it 'Puji Hall' ...Most of the refugees who suffered from the plague in the early years have returned to their hometowns, and some have not left. The second master found some work for them...A few days ago, His Majesty the Emperor gave a marriage to the general Mr. Mo Wang of the mansion, the Mo family started to build a garden to marry the princess, and the second master even found the Mo family specifically for this matter, and gave some of the work to the refugees to make a living..."

Hua Ziyao was stunned, and suddenly remembered what Li Dai said that day in Zhaojia Village - you know that what you hear is not what you see, but what you see with your heart is the proof... For a while, my mind was messed up.

Dazed for a long time, Hua Ziyao just woke up, raised his eyes and saw the monkey staring at him cunningly, he couldn't help laughing in his heart, thought for a while and said: "Second brother, can you come back to the other courtyard tomorrow?"

Hou'er snickered for a while, then said solemnly: "I'll go to the second master tomorrow morning, and tell him that the young master has something to look for him."

Hua Ziyao blushed, but shook his head and said: "That's not the reason. Although the second brother never said it, I also know that he is busy with everything, or else, or..." According to his temperament, it is about Every day I will squat in this yard and pester myself...

Hua Ziyao couldn't say the second half of the sentence, but said: "I don't have anything to look for him, but I'm getting better, I still want to go out for a walk outside the yard. So, don't trouble the second brother, tomorrow will be yours Go out with me for a walk."

When the monkey heard it, he immediately laughed and said: "Naturally. The second master has given orders early in the morning, don't ignore the young master's intentions in everything, but there are many outsiders in the courtyard. The young master is born too well, so as not to cause trouble, the second Master said that if you want to go out, you should wear a gauze hat."

Hua Ziyao didn't say much, just nodded silently.

When going out the next day, Hua Ziyao put on the gauze hat as promised, Hou Mingyuan stayed by his side every step of the way, and several disguised warriors followed in the dark, conscientiously shouldering the responsibility of guarding.

Hua Ziyao didn't go far, he sat in the tavern at the entrance of the alley outside the courtyard for a while, when he saw a few beggars in ragged clothes outside the door begging for food, they looked pitiful, so he asked the monkey to order some food and snacks feed them.

Although there are warriors guarding him secretly, Hou Mingyuan is not at ease. When the beggars were fighting for food, he straightened up and looked into the wine house. He was shocked when he saw a middle-aged man leaving Hua Ziyao, and hurried over. Hua Ziyao But he said lightly: "It's just a person who wanted to come over to set up a table... I sent him away."

It was noon, and there were a lot of people eating and resting in the restaurant, and the restaurant was not big, so you could see the storefront on the first floor. Indeed, at this moment, except for the table in the corner where only Hua Ziyao sat, the rest The place is full of people.

Hou Mingyuan went to look for the middle-aged man again, but he had disappeared.After thinking about it, Hou'er finally felt that he had made a fuss, so he no longer took it to heart.
