Chapter 701: Once You Give It Away, You Won’t Come Back (Extra 2)
We are all ants (Part 2)
Liang Huaixin followed the master's team closely and entered the city gate of Yuening City.
The familiar yet unfamiliar scene before him made him feel emotional, as if he was in another world.
Although he had been away from here for ten years, he felt that there didn't seem to be much changes here.
Especially after he carefully examined the surrounding street scenes, he found that compared with the scenes he had seen countless times in his dreams, they were only slightly shabby.
The master's carriage drove smoothly past the avenue in front of Wangchun Tower, and Liang Huaixin couldn't help but look over there.
The lost memories attacked him madly!
The lively scenes of entertaining guests here in the past instantly came to my mind.
At that time, he was full of vigor and energy, and was cheerful and talkative, but now everything has changed.
Memories came flooding back like a tide, and the corners of Liang Huaixin's mouth unconsciously rose, revealing a bitter smile.
The companions who were bought into the owner's house with him noticed Liang Huaixin's lonely expression and mistakenly thought that he was hungry.
Considering that they were bought together, it was a bit of fate, so the man kindly said, "Don't worry, I heard it will be here soon. And I specifically asked about it before,
When we arrive at your house, we will not only be provided with food, but also with daily necessities such as clothes."
Hearing this, Liang Huaixin nodded slightly and responded softly: "Yeah!"
Over the years, his life in prison has made him taciturn.
After all, in that kind of environment, the more you talk, the more mistakes you tend to make. Once you make a mistake, what awaits him is whipping and torture.
So at this moment, even though he had a thousand thoughts in his mind, he chose not to say anything.
The host's carriage team continued to move forward slowly, the wheels rolling and raising a light cloud of dust.
Liang Huaixin followed behind silently, thinking that he would go home to report the news when he had time and ask his family to redeem him.
Finally, the team arrived at the master's mansion.
Liang Huaixin followed the crowd into the gate, where maids and servants were busily moving about.
The housekeeper began to assign tasks, and Liang Huaixin was assigned to the stable to take care of the horses.
"The housekeeper is talking to you! What are you thinking about!" The person next to him pushed Liang Huaixin, "This is an easy job!"
He quickly expressed that he was capable of doing the job, but Liang Huaixin's eyes would glance at the housekeeper from time to time.
Not for any other reason, just because this butler was clearly Hu Zi, the servant who served Mr. Xiao back then.
The reason why Liang Huaixin could still recognize the other person after not seeing him for ten years was simply because the other person's appearance had basically not changed.
Now that I think about it, when I first entered the mansion, I felt that this place looked familiar. It turned out that this was the house that Master Xiao lived in on Shuojing Street.
It’s just that the other party seemed to have bought the house next door, which made it look bigger than before.
Hu Zi was also looking at the roster of servants at this time.
His eldest master Xiao Niankang will be studying at Yuening Academy during this period, so he came here specially to paved the way.
A lot of servants in the house were let go that year, so he was thinking of buying another batch back. Unexpectedly, by such a coincidence, he bought that person back.
However, Hu Zi still planned to see what the situation was first. What if it was just the same name and surname, wouldn’t it be a mistake?
That day in the stable, Liang Huaixin worked diligently. As soon as he returned to his room, he saw Hu Zi who was already waiting there.
He suppressed his uneasiness, greeted Hu Zi first, and then asked respectfully: "I wonder why the housekeeper came here to look for me?"
Hu Zi chuckled: "Don't pretend, Mr. Liang, I hope you are okay!"
Liang Huaixin pursed his lips and said nothing, just lowered his head.
"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. Since you sold yourself to get in, just do your job well. Anyway, you can't go back to the Liang Mansion!" Hu Zi looked at the other person's pale face and continued, "Don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't recognize you. It's just that the Liang Mansion has long been gone!"
It turned out that not long after Liang Huaixin took away most of the property, the Liang couple had a huge quarrel over the remaining property.
During this period, when the old lady found out that everything she had saved for her entire life was taken away by her grandson, she was so shocked that she almost died!
In the mourning hall, Mrs. Liang decided to go all out with the eldest master of the Liang family and exposed the fact that he had had an affair with the maid on his mother's deathbed and had an illegitimate child.
Now, the Liang family’s reputation has finally become as bad as it can be.
Without Madam Liang, the eldest master of the Liang family was like a headless fly. He decided to go all out and sold all the valuable things in the house including the house. He left a letter of divorce to his wife, and then left Yue Ningcheng with the pregnant maid.
As for where she went, no one could tell for sure! As for Mrs. Liang, after being divorced at an old age, she simply "jumped" into the river.
After hearing this, Liang Huaixin clenched his fists and tried his best to stay calm, as if these things really had nothing to do with him.
But even so, Hu Zi had no intention of keeping him. It was too dangerous to keep such a person around.
Alas! Anyway, if they sell their goods to the west, there are many places that hire laborers. Maybe the father and son of the Liang family will meet again one day.
After all, I heard that the child that the maid was pregnant with was not Mr. Liang's, and after Mr. Liang was defrauded of his money, he had to go to a remote place in the west to do hard labor.
The next day, a trafficker came and took Liang Huaixin away, promising to sell him far away.
"Liang Huaixin is too difficult to pronounce. Just call you Shuanzi from now on!" The foreman who bought him gave Liang Huaixin a new name, which was as common as the name he insisted on calling Xu Hongdou "Xiangsi" many years ago.
From then on, there was no Liang Huaixin anymore in the world, only Shuanzi, who was doing hard labor.
