Chapter 16 Xiao Cui

The new Tang Dynasty government chose a manor at the east foot of Longshan Mountain. The original owner was a relative of Li Yuan.

The manor is not large in area. It is backed by Longshan Mountain and faces Lishui River. There are some scattered farmers on both sides of the river, forming small villages.

Changsheng was helped out of the carriage by the new maid, and followed his elder brother into the gate with a stern expression.

The three of them ignored the greetings from the servants along the way, walked through the spacious front yard, and went straight to the back yard.

The three of them came to a small wooden shed in the garden outside the west wing of the backyard. They stopped when they heard a burst of curses, the sound of whips, and wailing sounds coming from the wooden shed.

Ji Xiang had a troubled look on his face, blocking the door with his body and shaking his head, "Don't go in, third brother."

Changsheng stared at his elder brother and squeezed out two words through his teeth: "Get out of the way."

Ji Xiang hesitated to speak, sighed, and finally turned half sideways to get out of the way.

Changsheng stepped forward and kicked the door open. However, she was just recovering from her serious injury. She used too much force and stumbled. Fortunately, the maid on the side helped her in time to prevent her from falling.

A familiar voice said in surprise: "Changsheng? Are you okay?!"

As soon as Changsheng raised his head, he saw the familiar face of his second brother. At this moment, he was whipping the woman on the ground hard with a whip. The woman was beaten with bruises all over her body. However, Changsheng's eyes lit up and he couldn't say what he wanted to say.

, tears burst out.

This person is none other than Dou's personal maid: Xiao Cui.

Chang Sheng looked at Xiao Cui who was beaten with only half life left. He couldn't help but feel an unknown fire in his heart. He was about to open his mouth to curse when he suddenly felt his chest tightening suddenly. He could only point at Ruyi with one hand and cover his chest with one hand. This time again

The injury on his arm was touched, and he immediately hugged his arm in pain and bent down.

Ruyi panicked at this moment and quickly threw away the whip in his hand and ran over to help Changsheng, "What's wrong, Changsheng, are you okay?"

He was so angry that he pushed him away with his left hand, pointed at his nose, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Why did you hit her?"

"She hurt you, so of course she deserves a beating!" Ruyi was stunned for a moment, and immediately replied confidently.

Changsheng continued to ask him: "She didn't do it on purpose. I accidentally fell off the carriage. Besides, she is a human being and not a kitten or puppy. Why did you hit her?"

Ruyi did not give in: "She is a servant and I am the master. Why can't I hit her?"

Changsheng pointed at Xiaocui who was lying on the ground, "She is my mother's personal maid. She has taken care of me since I was a child. She is a member of my room. If you hit her, you are hitting me."

Ruyi felt that she was not as important as a servant in the eyes of Changsheng. She suddenly felt very shameless and said in a low voice: "How can this be the same? She is just a servant!"

Chang Sheng: "What's wrong with this servant? You can just hit me at will? You see when my father hit me when he was angry. You must apologize to her and admit your mistake for what happened today, otherwise I will never call you second brother again!"

Ruyi also became angry at this time. He threw the whip to the ground with a wave of his hand and said: "If you don't scream, don't scream. What's the big deal!" After saying that, he rushed out angrily.

Ruyi took a few deep breaths, controlled her breathing, then patted her face vigorously to calm herself down, turned her head and said to Jixiang: "Brother, what I said was a bit harsh just now, help me look at my second brother, I'm worried about him

Running around."

The eldest brother nodded, glanced at the woman on the ground and said, "Be careful." Then he walked out the door.

Seeing that the two brothers were gone, Changsheng came to Xiaocui and knelt down. Looking at her scarred back and blood-stained face, he comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, it's okay."

A smile flashed in Xiao Cui's eyes, and tears flowed out uncontrollably.

In the dim wooden shed, Chang Sheng felt the absurdity of the world for the first time.

…

Outside the wooden shed, eldest brother Jixiang was standing under a tree not far away.

Changsheng walked up to him and asked, "What's wrong? I didn't find it?"

"Nowhere, it's not far away, right?" Jixiang said, pointing with his hand.

In the pavilion by the pond not far ahead, Ruyi was venting his anger and throwing stones into the pond.

"I can't persuade him, so you better go ahead." Jixiang spread his hands and said.

Changsheng asked his daughter to wait where she was, and walked slowly over alone.

The Ruyi who threw the stone over there felt more and more aggrieved as he thought about it. He clearly vented his anger for her, but he got scolded for nothing. Who is her relative and who is an outsider? Can't you tell the difference? Thinking about it, your eyes are filled with tears.

A little red, seeing Chang Sheng approaching from a distance, he turned his head to the side angrily.

Changsheng thought to himself, you have wronged me, and I have felt even more wronged. In order to save people, I risked my own life, but in the end, you killed the people I saved. A human life, no one cares about it, no one asks about it, it seems like

Just like the most common things in the world.

A child less than five years old could be so indifferent to human life, let alone his father, mother and brother. Maybe they still felt in their hearts that the person deserved his crime and deserved to die.

As for Xiaocui's companions, they may think that I am making a fuss about beating a servant to death. What's the big deal? If I don't kill a few from any household, I just beat them to death and bury them.

This fucking time!

For the first time since she traveled through time, Changsheng felt so deeply that she was alienated from this era. It turns out that the farthest distance is not language, identity, or different living habits, but the huge ideological gap that has formed over thousands of years!

After all, I am a person outside of this era... As soon as I thought about this, my nose became sore and tears flowed out.

Ruyi stopped when she heard the footsteps over there. There was no movement for a long time, so she couldn't help but take a sneak peek.

Damn it, why did my baby brother cry? I was so panicked at that time, and the resentment in my heart had long since disappeared without a trace.

Ruyi ran to Changsheng in three steps and then wiped her tears like her mother, and whispered: "Good Changsheng, good Changsheng, I was wrong, please stop crying."

"Where did you go wrong?" Chang Sheng looked at her with red eyes and asked with a twitching nose.

Ruyi also figured it out at this moment. Her younger brother was not angry with him for beating the servants, but was angry with him for beating them unreasonably and for no reason. So he said: "I will never beat them casually again in the future unless they make a mistake."

Fight only when fighting is impossible."

Chang Sheng smiled, thinking that this brother was not stupid. Seeing his fearful expression, most of the anger in his heart disappeared. But he still said seriously: "Not only that, you have to apologize to her in person. As for the

As an apology, I've thought about it, and I'm going to find the best doctor to treat her, and you'll pay for all the medicine."

"Ah?" Ruyi opened her mouth, feeling a little reluctant in her heart, but in the end she listened to Changsheng's words and apologized obediently. So far, the conflict between the two brothers has been completely resolved.
