Chapter 123 Writing a Letter
"Are you saying I'm not guilty?" Mengchun asked with wide eyes, then shook his head and sighed, "Even if I'm not guilty of killing that bastard, I still let Dazhuang take his place, and this is my original sin." Mengchun said with a wry smile.
Sun Yun thought of something and frowned, "Why are you telling me this?"
"What...is your purpose?" If I remember correctly, they just met...less than a day including yesterday.
Meng Chun patted her shoulder and said slowly, "Don't worry, I just held it in for too long and wanted to find someone to talk to."
"Why...why me?"
Meng Chun smiled softly, "Because you are a woman and have nothing to do with me, telling you is like finding a tree hole and speaking out. There is no purpose."
Mengchun got up and walked to the wardrobe beside the bed, took out a set of simple maid's clothes, and handed it to Sun Yun, "Put this on." After saying that, Mengchun was about to walk out the door.
Sun Yun quickly grabbed her and asked, "Is there any danger?"
"I wonder if I'll ever meet that kind of customer as a maid here..."
Mengchun glanced at her and said, "This...I can't guarantee it."
"If you're scared, you can make yourself look ugly."
"When can I go out?"
"Get out?" Mengchun covered her lips with a handkerchief as if she had heard a joke. "Wait until I become the most beautiful courtesan!"
"Row."
Mengchun will never be an oiran in her life, she knows that, dear! You have to give people a little hope to make better use of them, right?
……
Xie Feixing opened his eyes and rubbed his temples. He looked around and saw that the surroundings were deserted and there was no house in sight. He was lying straight in the open space.
"Where's Xiao Yunduo?" Xie Feixing sat up from the ground with a start.
Xie Feixing tried hard to recall what happened last night, "She is still in Lanyue Tower!" After thinking of this possibility, Xie Feixing broke out in a cold sweat on his back.
"No, I have to rescue her." How could this Lanyue Tower be so bold as to detain someone without authorization?
But could he rescue her? And how? "Report to the police?" Then he shook his head. If reporting to the police could solve the problem, they wouldn't be so bold. What if it didn't work and they got angry and that would be bad for Xiao Yunduo?
"Then what should I do?"
"How could you be so useless? You took her to Lanyue Tower!" Xie Feixing squatted on the ground and hit his head in pain.
"No, no matter what, I must bring her out, even if it means sacrificing myself." Xie Feixing stood up and said in a firm tone.
Xie Feixing was about to walk back after saying this, he looked around and said, "What the hell is this place?" He had no choice but to walk aimlessly and ask everyone he saw, but this was too inefficient.
It stands to reason that it's impossible to reach far in just a few hours...
……
Meng Chun looked at herself in the bronze mirror from top to bottom, left to right, and said happily, "You are really skillful, little girl. I really don't want to let you go like this."
Sun Yun's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and she said, "Sister Chun is not someone who goes back on her word."
Mengchun put down the bronze mirror and said, "I'll take you to see someone today."
"Now that we have such a powerful maid, we must show her off." Mengchun took Sun Yun's hand and said proudly.
"Thank you... Where are you now, sir?" Sun Yun asked quickly when she saw her happy.
Mengchun took the hand that was on Sun Yun's arm and snorted coldly, "What's there to worry about, stinky man? You just haven't suffered from a man before, so you have illusions about love. Listen to my advice, if a man is reliable, a sow will climb a tree."
"At least let me write a letter to let you know I'm safe."
"We were traveling here without telling our parents. If I hadn't gone back, he would have definitely reported me to the police. I'm their only daughter. If they can't find me..." Sun Yun didn't say anything else. She knew she understood.
"But I will only send it to you after I have read the letter and feel it is suitable for delivery." Meng Chun thought for a while and replied.
"can."
"Get your paper and pen from the cabinet."
Sun Yun opened the simple cabinet and placed a few pieces of paper with crooked words written on them. Sun Yun laughed softly.
Mengchun heard the laughter and remembered something. He quickly came over and took away the papers with words written on them. His fingers clenched, and his lips trembled slightly. "What's so funny? Not everyone is as lucky as you..."
Silence for a moment
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have laughed at you." Sun Yun said with a hint of guilt.
"Ah?" Mengchun didn't react for a moment. From childhood to adulthood, people around her always said that she was unworthy. When she saw A-di writing as a child, she also wanted to write, thinking that she should at least learn to write her own name!
She secretly picked up the paper ball her brother had thrown on the ground, and then quietly picked up the pen he had discarded. But when she picked up the pen, she didn't know where to start...
Yes! She can't write at all, so how can she write her own name?
After that time at the river... she suddenly remembered to ask Wu Hai how to write her name, because she heard A-di say that the village chief's son was the most educated person in the village. When she heard the other party say that he was the village chief's son, she still felt a little lucky, so that day she exchanged her body for one or two taels of silver and her own name.
My father always said that he and my younger brother were descendants of Mencius and would definitely take the imperial examinations. But my last name is Meng too! Can I also learn to read and write? A glimmer of light appeared in her heart.
She placed the wrinkled piece of paper with her name written on it in front of her father and brother, and said excitedly, "Father, look, I can write my own name now. I am also a descendant of Master Meng, right?
I didn't expect that the person who hurt me the most was my younger brother, the one I raised since I was a child. He laughed and said, "Are you sure this is writing and not dog crawling?"
Dad picked up the paper on the table and said, "You silly girl, why don't you learn how to write? You are insulting the reputation of our Meng family." After saying that, he tore the paper into pieces.
"Don't let me see you writing again." Dad said viciously, as if I had committed a terrible crime. But I just wanted to write and it was such an unforgivable sin. I don't understand,
A-di sighed softly and imitated the adults, saying, "A woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent..."
"To make up for my mistake just now, let me teach you how to write." Sun Yun continued when she saw that she didn't say anything.
“Write…write?”
For so many years, because of what her brother said, "A woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent," she never dared to pick up a brush again. These pieces of paper were given to her by that person. She had just written these words a few days ago, and the characters were still as crooked as before. She thought that she was really not suitable for learning to write.
Mengchun shook her head and smiled bitterly, "A woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent."
Sun Yun couldn't stand it anymore when she heard this and slammed the table. "Who said that? These are just sour men saying things to control women. There's no truth to them."
