After returning from Deyue Zhai, Wang Ximeng fell asleep. It wasn't until the moon set and the stars in the sky shone that I woke up.
After picking up the kettle and drinking a lot of water, Wang Ximeng woke up. Wang Ximeng couldn't sleep, so he took a chair and went to the yard to sit and watch the stars in the sky.
A Milky Way stretches across Wang Ximeng's head. On both sides of the Milky Way, many stars blink and blink, as if they are also curiously looking at this colorful world.
Sighing heavily, the stars in Wang Ximeng's eyes slowly began to become hazy.
A few days ago, Wang Ximeng met a woman and liked her very much. Although the woman was nearly forty years old, she was more mature and charming, and Wang Ximeng fell in love with her at first sight. She is also a poor person. She heard that her husband was kidnapped by the Jin people during the Jingkang period and has never been heard from again. Now I am only accompanied by my son. He went to the front line a year ago and has not been seen for more than half a year.
Wang Ximeng, who had also been widowed for many years, shared the same fate as the woman. After talking several times, Wang Ximeng couldn't bear it anymore and proposed to marry that woman back home. The woman hesitated again and again, saying that she was a delicate person and was afraid that Wang Ximeng's salary would not be able to support her. Even if you can endure hardships, you still have to save some money. Wang Ximeng was obsessed with making money these days, but he was stimulated by women and couldn't swallow it.
Thinking of these, Wang Ximeng felt upset and looked stupidly at the Milky Way in the sky, looking at the Weaver Girl and Altair on both sides of the Milky Way.
The next morning, Wang Ximeng washed up and prepared to go to the cafeteria for breakfast. When I walked to the road, I met Li Di walking towards me.
As soon as Li Di saw Wang Ximeng, he said: "Oh, Wang Daizhao, why did he get up so late this year?"
Wang Ximeng said: "It's not too late, there should be food in the cafeteria."
Li Di said: "Don't go, there are only fennel stuffed buns left in the cafeteria. None of us will eat fennel buns, what are you doing?"
Wang Ximeng shook his head after hearing this: "Sun's father knows that we don't eat fennel buns and loves them very much. I don't know what he is thinking!"
After that, he and Li Di walked outside to find breakfast.
After walking a few steps, Li Di asked Wang Ximeng in a low voice: "Wang Daizhao, have you fallen in love with Mrs. Zhang who lives not far away? That woman is a little dishonest!"
Wang Ximeng said hurriedly: "You will never shut up with your mouth! What nonsense are you spreading!"
Li Di said: "This is not a rumor, it is absolutely true! Do you remember that there is a hospital A and B on the east side of the street? The head monk inside is very strong, has a dignified appearance, and is practicing with three disciples. This head monk has a law There is something unclear about the name Shanxing and Mrs. Zhang."
Wang Ximeng said: "You can't talk nonsense about this kind of thing!"
Li Di said: "Why are you talking nonsense? Yesterday Mrs. Zhang went to the temple to offer incense and met the monk in the back hall. She took off her clothes and was caught by her two daughters-in-law, making a noise there! Many people saw it Okay, I don’t dare to lie about this kind of thing!”
Seeing that Li Di had a nose and eyes, Wang Ximeng couldn't believe it and couldn't help but stop. That woman looks dignified and beautiful, would she do such a thing? After knowing each other for so long, he had never even held her hand, yet she went to fool around with a monk!
Not far away, he saw a Shaobing shop. Li Di took Wang Ximeng in to eat Shaobing. When Wang Ximeng ate it, he felt that there was no taste in his mouth.
Back at his residence, Li Benyu felt very excited. Zhang Yuan was asked to hang up the two paintings he bought. He looked left and right, but he felt that they were not enough. In the evening, a banquet was prepared, and he drank alone in front of the painting. While drinking and composing myself, I just thought how could I be so discerning that I bought these two paintings. I even thought it would be a pity to give these two paintings to Xing Shou, so I might as well keep them for myself.
Until the next morning, Li Benyu woke up leisurely.
Zhang Yuan said: "Deyuezhai is there. When Yuanwai feels good, he can go there and buy two paintings. These two paintings should be given to Lin Yuanwai, the head of the line, to avoid any complications. We went to Luoyang originally to explore the Song Army. How can you mess up your sense of proportion over trivial matters!"
After hearing this, Li Benyu asked Zhang Yuan to wrap the two paintings carefully.
It was almost noon, the more Wang Ximeng thought about it, the more something was wrong, and he felt unusually queasy in his heart. I couldn't help it anymore, so I left the painting academy and came to the outside of Madam Zhang's courtyard. Hiding behind a poplar tree, looking at the door of Mrs. Zhang's courtyard. I didn't know what to do, so I was restless behind the tree.
It wasn't until after noon that the door of the Zhang family's courtyard opened, and Mrs. Zhang's figure flashed out of the door.
Just as Wang Ximeng was about to step forward, he saw another person emerge from behind Mrs. Zhang, it was Mrs. Zhang's daughter-in-law Yunu.
Then Mrs. Zhang said: "I'm going to Yuan Tan's shop to buy a piece of cloth, so you don't have to follow me."
Yunu said: "Auntie, I'm afraid you'll forget to come back when you're in the store, so I'd better remind you."
Mrs. Zhang sighed, there was nothing she could do. A few days ago, her daughter-in-law was caught raping her in the temple, and she didn't believe in herself even more. As long as he comes out, his daughter-in-law will follow him without leaving a step. It's pitiful that on the day of the rape, I didn't even do anything, and I got busted.
Seeing that Mrs. Zhang was leaving, Wang Ximeng could no longer bear it. He took a step forward and said, "What a coincidence today, I bumped into Madam as soon as I went out."
After saying that, he bowed and stared at Mrs. Zhang.
Mrs. Zhang said: "It turns out to be Wang Daizhao, who has been missing for a few days."
Wang Ximeng said: "Madam dislikes the fact that my family is poor. I have been saving money every day these days, so I have seen very little."
Mrs. Zhang smiled and said: "I just said it casually, why should I take it seriously when it comes to an edict——"
Wang Ximeng was still talking, and the jade slave next to him said: "If Taizhao really likes my grandma, he will marry her openly and don't meet secretly. In the eyes of younger generations like us, we are afraid of having any bad intentions."
Wang Ximeng waved his hands hurriedly: "Madam, I misunderstood! How could I be such a person!"
Yunu glanced at her mother-in-law and said, "Taizhao is a gentleman, I'm afraid the others are not a noble lady!"
Mrs. Zhang didn't think this was something embarrassing, but she was stared at by her daughter-in-law and couldn't help but sigh.
Wang Ximeng said: "Madam is not that kind of person, you may have misunderstood. Madam, is it true or not?"
Mrs. Zhang was stunned for a moment after hearing Wang Ximeng's words. He said: "What kind of person am I? What misunderstanding does the bride have?"
After hearing this, Wang Ximeng was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say. After a while, I couldn't help but ask: "I heard someone said that a few days ago in the nearby monk temple, you had some confusion with the monks in the temple. If you hadn't been watched, you would have -"
Having said this, Wang Ximeng couldn't help but stamp his foot, shook his head and said "Hey".
Wang Ximeng was her favorite. When she heard what he said, Mrs. Zhang rarely blushed. He said: "I just had something to say with the monk in private, and I was told about it by others, all of whom said unpleasant things."
Wang Ximeng couldn't help but widen his eyes and couldn't believe his ears. Judging from what Mrs. Zhang said, what Li Di said was actually true?
In Wang Ximeng's heart, Mrs. Zhang is like a fairy in the sky, flawless, how could she be so casual. I have seen the monks in temple A and B. They are not very handsome. I can only say that they are Zhou Zheng. Moreover, she is already in her fifties and is well past the age to attract women. Why does Mrs. Zhang fall in love with her? Moreover, a monk cannot take a wife, so Mrs. Zhang only likes him for sexual desire?
For a moment, the world was spinning, and everything around him was blurred.
Seeing that Wang Ximeng was silent, Yunu grabbed her mother-in-law and hurried to the cloth shop.
At Lin Shengyuan's house, Zi Ling put a bowl of perilla ointment on the table and watched Lin Shengyuan drink it.
Lin Shenghu put the bowl on the table, smoothed his beard with his hand, raised his head and nodded to Zi Ling.
As a single man, now that he has money and everything goes as he wants, it is inevitable to think about things between men and women. It is not prohibited to hire Wang Xiaolie with money as long as it is voluntary. When a woman enters a man's door, that kind of thing cannot be avoided.
These days, Lin Shengyuan has hired several female envoys. But in the end, only Ziling was left, and the others dispersed.
Zi Ling is clever and considerate, and most importantly, she takes care of men. On weekdays, Lin Shengyuan takes care of everything with meticulous care, no matter food, play, or other messy things. Lin Shengyuan only felt comfortable every day without any worries.
Lin Shengyuan thought many times about marrying Zi Ling. It's just that her daughter is Wang Xiaolie's wife, so marrying a mother who is about the same age as her is really inconvenient. So until now, Zi Ling is still in the Lin family in the name of a female envoy.
Zi Ling took away the bowl and brought another bowl of tea for Lin Shengyuan to rinse his mouth.
Watching Lin Shengyuan put down the bowl, Zi Ling said: "My lord, this afternoon a member of the Communist Party of China, Mr. Li from the north, sent me two paintings, saying that he was a filial piety to the lord. I think the two paintings are from Wang Daizhao of the Painting Academy. What you have done should be of great value. I don’t know what to do with it?”
After hearing this, Lin Shengyuan cursed: "This member Li is from the land of the north, and he is really ignorant. This Wang Ximeng, who has lost his mind for some reason, recently asked De Yuezhai to sell his paintings. His The two paintings were just random graffiti, without any dignity at all. Who would want them? The price he asked for was still high! De Yue Zhai got these two paintings, and couldn't sell them for many days, and he was complaining in his heart. I didn't expect them to be bought by him. Come on, be a baby!"
Speaking of this, Lin Shengyuan couldn't help but knocked on the table angrily: "I remember that these two paintings cost more than one hundred guan. It's more than 100 guan. You gave me other things, but I still got 100 guan." Here. What’s the use of giving me these two paintings?”
Zi Ling said: "This member Li is so generous, I wonder what he wants to ask him to do?"
Lin Shengyuan said: "I am the head of a silk and cloth trading company. If they want to do cloth business, of course they have to come to me."
Zi Ling said: "If they don't ask for officials, their business will not be successful?"
Lin Shengyuan smiled and said: "Of course it can be done. As the leader of the trade, I am just registering the people who do business below. How dare I not do business? All guilds are run by the government and the private sector. If I don't allow him to do business, what will happen to the superiors? It’s time for the supervising officials to cause trouble for me.”
After speaking, he stroked his beard and said proudly: "But as long as my son-in-law is there, who dares to come to me?"
