The next day, Wu Yi borrowed a wheelbarrow, piled up the gifts sent by Mo Mansion, and went out to Shishi Street to return them to Mo Mansion.
Huang Yapo stood in front of Li's widower's shop. Seeing the splendor and beauty there, her eyes were sore and greedy. She wished she could have a son like Wu Jin, so she immediately sent him to the Mo Mansion to marry him.
It's a pity that my son is thick-headed, illiterate, and can't even get in the door of Mo Mansion.
She watched Wu's mother cleaning the fallen leaves in front of the door and sarcastically said: "Sister-in-law of the Wu family, you are planning to cut ties with the Mo family. Your man fell from the Xiongshi Gorge. If the Mo family hadn't helped, your life would not have been as good as before. It’s better now.”
Mother Wu turned a deaf ear and only danced with her broom to make the wind come to life.
Huang Yapo clicked her tongue twice: "If you ask me, your brother Jin is more capable. He is a man who does big things in a low voice. No wonder there are so many matchmakers and he doesn't like any of them. It turns out that he has great ambitions to get married. , also, if you go to Mo Jiedushi, you will have enough food and clothing for the next few lifetimes."
Widowmaker Li wiped the table and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
"What nonsense," Huang Yapo raised her eyebrows, "I've heard all about it. A few years ago, Brother Jin tried his best to attack the Mo Mansion. He dressed up like a dog every day just to climb the dragon and the phoenix. Even The title of Jieyuan was also given to him by Envoy Mo Jiedu!"
She shouted to Wu's mother: "Tell Brother Jin to help us too, don't get rich by yourself!"
A head stuck out of the window on the side and sneered: "No wonder I went to Beijing to take the exam and didn't get anything out of it. It turns out that I'm just a loser."
Huang Yapo shouted into the room: "Brother Jin, tell me, does Miss Mo like you? Or does she just treat you as a slave?"
A few more women stood up on Shishi Street, grabbing melon seeds and cracking them, watching the excitement.
"They are like golden branches and jade leaves, but Brother Jin is afraid that everything will be in vain."
"It's all in vain. I heard that a lot of money was made from the Mo family. Some of it was exposed between Miss Mo's fingers, which is enough for us to live for a year and a half. They say that Miss Mo just gave away an East Pearl. .”
"Brother Jin really can't tell. He always pretends to be a saint. I said that when I learned Yuan in junior high school, he didn't even want gold or silver from others. It turned out that he had sold himself secretly."
"This man's looks are worth selling for, and his net worth is not low."
Amidst the filthy words, Wu's mother said nothing, carried the broom and went home, and then locked the door tightly.
However, rumors cannot be stopped by Wu Mu closing the door.
Rumors in Kuanzhou City have always been flying around with wings, let alone involving the Mo Mansion - the Mo Mansion has a huge family fortune, and it is worth millions of coins to the country and the court, and Mo Lingfeng is killing enemies in the fort. This adds even more color to this rumor.
The disputes over poetry at literary gatherings were chewed over and over again after dinner and tea, adding fuel to the fire, and in the end they were completely changed beyond recognition.
It was difficult to stop the long conversation. In just half a day, Wu Jin had already been charged with countless crimes. Qiu Wei's former reputation was also slandered as worthless, and rumors of fraud were rampant.
They relied on their sharp eyesight and insight into the truth, and attacked Wu Jin in groups to show their uprightness.
In short, Wu Jin is already notorious, a street rat, a scum that the state does not tolerate and students are not ashamed of.
Amid the burning words, Cheng Ting stayed at home, worried.
Wu Jin was no longer allowed to attend the Zhou School. He only attended one class and was forced to return home after beating a student from Tunan Academy. The student rushed into the Zhou School and removed the four words "Tunan Academy" posted on the pink wall. After taking it away, he tore out the four characters "Feiran Academy" written by Wu Jin and tore them into pieces. He sat down flat on his butt.
After Cheng Ting returned home, Cheng's father rarely beat him up. Instead, he gave him Fang Sheng and asked him to hand it over to Wu Jin.
He did not open Fang Sheng, but first sent Pang Dahai to find out where Wu Jin was. Pang Dahai went out for a long walk and came back to tell Cheng Ting that he found Wu Yi in the cake shop. Wu Yi said that Wu Jin had his mother imprisoned in Home.
After hearing this, Cheng Ting suddenly asked: "How is the business of the cake shop?"
Fatty Dahai shook his head: "No business."
"Damn it!" Cheng Ting slammed the table hard and cursed angrily. The bird hanging on the porch also cursed: "Damn toad."
Cheng Ting climbed onto the bed and stretched his hand into the seam of the bed: "Damn toad, you've done a great job. Just wait and see when Ye Feng comes back!"
He scolded and fumbled, and took out two large pieces of silver from the crack - these twenty taels of silver could allow him to take a boat to Huzhou at any time, which was his capital.
Putting the silver and Fang Sheng close together, he looked at the sky and saw dark clouds covering the sky, so he picked up an umbrella and went to Mo Mansion first.
In Mo Mansion, Yin Bei was also planning to go to Baozhai to deliver a letter to Mo Lingfeng. Cheng Ting stopped him and asked him to wait. If Wu Jin had a letter to send to Mo Lingfeng, he would bring it with him.
He asked Yin Bei to take out the book that Wu Jin often read, hold it directly in his arms, and hurriedly walked to Shishi Street. Everyone on Shishi Street knew his identity and was close friends with Wu Jin, so they all kept their mouths shut and did not dare to Say more.
Cheng Ting was familiar with the road and knocked on the door of Wu Jin's house. The person who opened the door was Wu's mother. Seeing that Wu's mother looked haggard, he had words of persuasion on his lips, but he didn't know what to say, so he just called "Auntie" and said that he was to Wu Jin. Jin brings books.
After crossing the threshold, he saw Wu Jin at a glance.
Wu Jin was wearing a fine white Taoist robe with a wooden hairpin on her head. She was sitting in the corridor and reading a book.
He is very clean. Under the heavy clouds and dense water vapor, he is spotless and even has a translucent feel.
He was holding the book, but did not read it. He was just lost in thought. Suddenly he heard the door knocking, and then he came back to his senses. He took a closer look and saw that it was Cheng Ting coming. He felt warm in his heart, stood up to greet him, and said with a smile, "Why are you here?"
"I've brought you a book," Cheng Ting walked over and raised the book in his hand. "It's going to rain. Sit inside. I'm hot and thirsty from this journey."
He turned to Wu's mother and said, "Auntie, please give me a cup of tea."
Wu's mother agreed and went into the kitchen to light the fire. Wu Jin took the book from Cheng Ting's hand and saw that the "Book of Changes" was also among them, so he sighed: "Thank you for your hard work."
"See you outside." Cheng Ting followed him into the house. As soon as he got close to Wu Jin, he smelled a spicy smell of medicine.
"Did your mother hit you?"
"Um."
Cheng Ting had rich experience in being beaten. As he pulled up a stool and sat down, he taught him his healing secrets without reservation. After teaching him, he took Fang Sheng out and handed it to Wu Jin: "My father gave him your."
Wu Jin took it in his hand, opened it and saw the word "No" inside.
His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly went to get the "Book of Changes" and turned to the twelfth hexagram, Fu Gua, to take a closer look.
These hexagrams overlap with different hexagrams, otherwise they will be bandits, which will be detrimental to the gentleman's chastity. The great will come and the small will come. This is a sign of the incompatibility of heaven and earth, and the obstruction of all things. The gentleman is in the wild, the villain is in the throne, the villain has a long way, and the gentleman's way disappears.
How to explain - A gentleman uses frugality to overcome difficulties, but cannot use glory and wealth.
This hexagram was enough to make Wu Jin calm and calm.
