Chapter 1107 love
"Maybe you will understand me when you see the world I created with your own eyes, but it's too late now."
Lan Jinxi stretched out her hand at Jiang Xiu: "Since that's the case, I'll take you to see the ugliness of human nature."
Jiang Xiu looked at the hand, hesitated for a moment, but still reached out to hold it. Lan Jinxi led her down and said, "Do you like the gift Joshua gave you?"
Jiang Xiu nodded: "I like it very much."
"That's his beloved thing."
Lan Jinxi smiled and said, "Since I got it, I have been keeping it in my own small vault. Others can't even see it. I didn't expect him to give it to you."
Jiang Xiu asked: "Why is such a weird dagger called Zhongqing?"
"This is a long story."
Lan Jinxi obviously had no interest in telling stories, and said, "It was probably a pair of infatuated men and women... The dagger was once a noble princess, but he fell in love with a low-ranking servant. The servant was slave for generations and was the most humble existence. However, the princess fell in love with him. The queen noticed this matter, so she immediately made a marriage for the princess. The princess was forced to get married. In the bridal chamber, she watched with her own eyes as the servant was beaten to death, and the blood dyed the princess's love token red, which was the dagger, dyeing the red lotus on it even more weird... After the servant died, the princess buried him with her own hands, and then hanged herself on the dead tree in front of his grave. The dagger was buried with her, probably by a tomb robber."
She paused and said, "This knife was not called Zhongqing, but Karma Fire. Later, a monk saw it and said that the dagger was too evil, with resentment and suffering. The name of Karma Fire could not suppress it, so he changed his name to Zhongqing, which was considered to give the bitter lover a fulfillment."
Jiang Xiu happened to be carrying the dagger today. She wanted to come to thank Joshua in person, but she didn't want to hear such a story. She felt that Lan Jinxi probably wanted to use this story to tell her something.
She touched the word "love" on the hilt of the knife, and heard Lan Jinxi's voice in her ear: "You said, "What do you think is the word love really make people pay so much?"
Princess Gucheng is the only daughter of the empress. She was born with gold and jade. If the dynasty is immortal, she will always be one of the most noble women. Even the prince-consort dares to treat her with slightest part. However, she chose the most bumpy road. The servant who was implicated was beaten to death by sticks and she would not have a good end. It is clear that she can choose a safe and smooth life."
Jiang Xiu was silent for a while and smiled: "I am not Princess Gucheng, and Joshua is not that servant. Mom, you think too much."
Lan Jinxi shook her head and said, "The only difference is that the princess is happy with that servant, but you are not."
Jiang Xiu smiled and said, "Mom, you said too, the word "love is the most useless, so why do you bring out a love species with one hand?"
"..." Lan Jinxi said lightly: "That's true nature."
They had already walked to the parking lot, and Lan Jinxi said, "Go up."
Jiang Xiu got into the car and stopped after driving for more than an hour. Jiang Xiu got out of the car and saw that it was a very old tube building. There were not many places like Beijing now.
Lan Jinxi said: "Follow me."
They walked up the narrow, dirty and dark stairs and reached the fifth floor. Lan Jinxi stopped. A bodyguard came to help her open the door. She took Jiang Xiu in. It was empty inside, only a few chairs.
Jiang Xiu turned his eyes and found a window leaning against the wall of the neighbor's house. Lan Jinxi said, "This is a house for rent. From this window, I just saw the opposite side. Come."
Jiang Xiu sat down next to Lan Jinxi, and could see the room next to her through the window. It was very dirty and flies flying around, which made Jiang Xiu frown.
There was no movement on the other side, but suddenly there was a door sound and a girl opened the door and came in. Her clothes were very exposed. She knew she was in a flesh-and-skin business at a glance, but her expression on her face was very cowardly.
As soon as she came in, the man who had been lying on the ground stood up, holding a bottle of wine in his hand. When he saw her, he scolded: "A money-losing guy... where is the money today!?"
The girl trembled and took out a stack of wrinkled banknotes. The man rudely grabbed it and clicked it, and suddenly became angry: "Why are there only two hundred yuan today?
!ah!?"
The girl was about to be scared to tears and said, "Yes, there are customers... I don't want to give money, I said... I'm not clean, and I even hit me..." She showed half of her face covered by her hair, and Jiang Xiu saw that her face was swollen and had been slapped in the face.
The man ignored this and became furious, pulled her hair and hit the wall: "Don't you give me money?"
!You don’t know if you don’t give money?
!What do I do to raise you so old?
!You losers, it’s better to see your devil mom earlier!!”
"..." Lan Jinxi said lightly: "This girl was abducted and trafficked since she was a child. She was later bought by her current adoptive father. She was 19 years old this year. After finishing junior high school, she was forced to go to a bar and accompany customers to make money by her nightclubs. Her adoptive father either beat or scolded her. All the money she earned was taken to gamble by him.
"She met a group of rich second-generations yesterday. The mother Sang from the nightclub felt sorry for her and asked her to accompany her. The group of rich second-generations despised her for being dirty and dirty. Even if she could only open a bottle of wine for tens of thousands, she was unwilling to give her a penny. A group of people threw her on the street after playing with her. She was unconscious for a long time before she woke up."
Jiang Xiu opened her eyes wide in shock: "Why!?
Since you don't like it, let her go, why do you still need to..." Lan Jinxi said softly: "Jiang Jiang, this is human nature. You can never guess and understand. Those rich second-generations are willing to spend a lot of money for a glass of wine, but they are unwilling to give this poor girl a hundred yuan. Her adoptive father can lose money for thousands or thousands at the gambling table, but they are unwilling to let their daughter finish their studies and find a job. Who should be counted on this account?
Rich second generation?
Her father?
Or the girl himself?”
Jiang Xiu was a little confused: "I..." Lan Jinxi shook her head gently and said, "Jiang Jiang, you have never seen what the lower society in this world looks like, so you don't understand how many people struggle hard every day just to survive. They have no dignity and are willing to do anything for money. Just like this girl, she didn't need to suffer these hardships. She was originally a wealthy family and could make her grow into an excellent child, but because of human traffickers, she ended up now."
Lan Jinxi looked at Jiang Xiu's eyes: "Jiang Jiang, who should you blame?"
