Chapter 118: Miss Ruth Liu San stood at Ruth’s door and said a lot of nice things, but she didn’t see Ruth inside to talk to her, and she was so anxious that she didn’t know what to do for a moment.
At this time, Ke Han, the master of picking up girls, came over from behind. He patted Liu San on the shoulder, smiled softly and said: "Liu San, it seems that your sincerity is not enough to impress your princess!"
Liu San lowered his head in shame, squeaking and not knowing how to answer Ke Han's words.
Ke Han looked at Liu San, then at the closed door, blinked at Liu San, and suddenly exclaimed: "Oh, you, what are you kneeling for?"
Liu San understood the idea and really knelt down with a bang. He cried and shouted to Ruth inside: "Ruth, I will keep kneeling until you are willing to come out to see me."
Ke Han nodded with satisfaction, and specially changed the word of a common saying. He said to Ruth inside: "We are both from the world, why should we not recognize each other when we meet! Since the feelings are very deep, why bother to avoid them deliberately?
?Wouldn’t it be better to forgive each other, forget about the past, and start over from scratch?”
After a while, the door opened with a creak, and Ruth came out, rubbing her red and swollen eyes. She looked at Liu San who was kneeling on the ground, and suddenly she burst into tears.
Ke Han was very surprised that this gangster Liu San had such charm that he could make a leading socialite in "Happy Heaven" shed tears?
"Why are you still here? I don't deserve what you did to me. I am a bad girl who is no longer pure!..." Ruth choked, covering her eyes sadly and crying.
"Calm down!" Ke Han stood aside and comforted, "I don't know what happened between you, but I am sure that you must have had an unforgettable relationship, so I still want to advise you to calm down.
, don’t be confused for a moment and do something stupid that you will regret for the rest of your life!”
Unexpectedly, Ruth cried even more sadly. Ke Han motioned to Liu San to help her up quickly and enter the house. He wanted to help this pair of people, who seemed unlikely to have any results, so he asked Li Xiao and
Zhang Jiadong went back to Dali Temple first, while he stayed behind to think of a solution for Liu San.
Ruth was still sad. When she sat down and saw the inspector standing aside, she slowly calmed down. While complaining about Liu San's inhumanity, she slowly told her own experience.
According to Ruth herself, she was a girl from a suburb of Ningbo. Her original name was Lu Si. When she was eighteen, her parents died of constipation and tuberculosis. From then on, she became an orphan.
Consumption: Tuberculosis is an independent disease, the main symptoms of which are cough, hemoptysis, hot flashes, and night sweats; Consumption is a general term for the syndrome of deficiency of various chronic diseases, which is caused by the loss of internal organs and weakness of vitality. The five internal organs can appear separately.
Various clinical symptoms of Qi, blood, yin and yang deficiency. Pulmonary tuberculosis is contagious. The disease is located in the lungs and can be transmitted to the spleen and kidneys. Consumption is not contagious. Kidney deficiency is the main one and all five internal organs are equally important.
I remember that before her death, her mother left her a white handkerchief embroidered with the word "Chen" and asked her to take this handkerchief to Kyoto to find her grandparents whom she had never seen since she was born.
Her mother told her with tears in her eyes that when she saw her grandparents, remember to let them know that her mother missed her grandfather and grandmother very much when she was alive. Although, because she wanted to break through the shackles of marriage, she eloped with her childhood sweetheart Lu Xiucai to Ningbo, a place she was unfamiliar with.
, living a secluded life in anonymity. Although it is very poor, it is also warm.
The family relied on Lu Xiucai's meager income from teaching at a private school in Ningbo to survive. As a result, they were malnourished and frail. They did not last long. Her parents passed away one after another. This was a big blow to a young girl!
At that moment, Lu Si felt sad and sold her house to bury her father and mother. Then, with the help of kind-hearted neighbors, she scraped together a little money and came to Kyoto to find her relatives.
On this day, Lu Si had spent all his money and was thinking sadly about how to find his grandparents who had almost no clues. He sat in a small noodle shop on the street and begged people to take her in, but was declined. When he thought about it, he would have to take her in.
Sleeping on the street, Lu Si was terrified. After a while, heavy snow began to fall in the sky, and Lu Si, who was still wearing autumn clothes, was shivering. She couldn't bear the biting cold, so she leaned against a chair in the small noodle shop.
Next to the small brazier, I really felt like crying without tears.
"Oh, this little girl, why are you alone? Where are your parents?" At this time, a middle-aged woman wearing a fur coat approached Lu Si and lovingly touched her curly hair due to lack of nutrition.
With his withered yellow hair, he kept asking, "It's such a cold day and you're wearing so little? Have you eaten?"
Lu Si looked at the lady helplessly and said gratefully, "Thank you madam for your concern. I came to Kyoto to visit my bride, but because I don't know the specific information, I have been in Kyoto for almost seven days and I can only sleep on the streets. I really don't know what to do.
"
"Oh, I came to Kyoto to look for someone, but I don't even have any accurate information. How can I find him?" The noble lady breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Lu Si sympathetically, took out a money bag from her arms, and touched it.
He handed out a copper coin and said to the restaurant owner, "Quickly give the child a bowl of shredded pork noodles to warm her body!"
The noodle shop owner took the coin and agreed cheerfully: "Okay!"
After a while, a hot bowl of shredded pork noodles was brought over. Looking at the high-grade nutritious noodles that she had not been able to eat in a long time, Lu Si couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Eat, it's okay. If you really can't find your relatives, stay with us for the time being. I'll make sure you have enough food and clothing!" The lady spoke to Lu Si enthusiastically, and then asked,
"You came to Kyoto to find someone. Did your family give you an accurate address or contact information? Or evidence?"
Lu Si drank the hot soup softly, feeling that he had met a noble person. Just as he was about to take out the handkerchief, he saw the noodle shop owner coughing twice and getting angry at Lu Si inexplicably, "
You girl, you didn’t pay attention and almost put out my brazier. I should have left you to make the fire in the brazier for me before letting you go."
The noble lady showed displeasure and said: "I am a girl. You treat her so cruelly. Don't scare her! What is this? Blackmailing?"
Lu Si saw that the lady was treating him so enthusiastically, so he decided decisively to follow her after eating, so as not to suffer hardships outside and lose everything!
Before leaving, Lu Si took a special look at the brazier. Only then did he realize that, in fact, the charcoal fire in the brazier had not been extinguished at all. He looked at the boss who seemed a bit honest and honest with some confusion and resentment.
, thought resentfully: So you are also so treacherous? Then, he followed the lady decisively.
Behind the scenes, the honest and honest boss kept shaking his head and blaming himself. He lamented: Why did he refuse to take in a little girl in the first place? Wasn't this pushing the little girl into a pit of fire?
As soon as she entered this place called "Happy Paradise", Lu Si was a little nervous. She didn't understand why the girls here were so flirtatious and all of them so charming and enchanting? For a girl?
For a little girl who has never seen the big world, this place is definitely shocking.
"Mom, is there a newcomer again?" Every woman who saw Lu Si clicked her tongue first, and then smiled and greeted the lady who led her in. Some of them were even hugged by the men around their waists, which was very embarrassing.
She screamed exaggeratedly, then leaned forward numbly, leaning directly on the man's chest and whimpering.
Lu Si shyly hid behind the lady, but was pulled out by the lady who was gentle just now and lectured: "What is there to be afraid of?"
This noble lady clearly no longer had the gentleness and considerateness she had just now. Lu Sisi wanted to leave, but was blocked by a big man with big muscles and a round waist.
For several days, she was locked in a boudoir and received training from a woman named Sister Feng, including physical training and social training. The interesting thing was that apart from a pair of charming eyes that could talk, she really couldn't find anyone.
There was nothing special about it. She was often asked questions like this by Lu Si, especially about music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Sister Feng basically stood aside, so that in the end, when the mother came to ask Sister Feng,
How well did Lu Si train? He also personally supervised the exam. What is surprising is that Lu Si did very well in almost anything he had no training in. Not only did he play the guzheng well, but he also danced well.
Even Sister Feng, who has always been very self-righteous, sighed and felt ashamed!
This is really like a great beauty falling from the sky, and she is an all-rounder who can play music, chess, calligraphy and painting, which makes the old madam who is "happy as heaven" so happy.
Suddenly, Lu Si became famous! In order to attract more people, the madam named Sally changed Lu Si's name to the homophone "Ruth". There is an unwritten rule here.
You can use your real name to show others!
The business model of "Le Like Paradise" is similar to the once glorious "Yuexiu Tower" in Huai County. Of course, as a large-scale leisure and entertainment venue in Kyoto, this place is larger than the "Yuexiu Tower" and is larger than any other place.
The leisure and entertainment venues are much more magnificent!
Most of the people who come to "Happy Paradise" for gambling and leisure, especially Ruth, are rich kids and gangsters who spend a lot of money because they heard that a beautiful angel with all-round artistic talent has come to "Happy Paradise"
, everyone rushed to watch, and they were all proud to have a meal with Ruth!
However, Miss Ruth also has a rigid rule. Each customer can only spend time with her for one cup of tea, and they are only performing arts and not selling themselves! Many people at the yamen level have strong opinions on this. However, Ruth has too many fans. This
It just made those guys have more disputes and jealousies among each other.
Seeing such a scene, the happiest person was none other than Madam Sarah! Therefore, she also "taken special care" of Ruth.
