seventeenth
The sun rose high up, drying the dew on the white gardenia flowers. Luo Yuzhen had just gotten up. She did not have the habit of waking up early. Ever since Hua Shiliang's death, she had been suffering from insomnia at night. She often fell asleep at three or four o'clock in the morning. Naturally, she could not get up early. After washing her face, she carried the basket and went out to buy groceries. It turned out that this matter was done by the female face hired by the family to help Aunt Ah Lin. When Hua Shiliang's case was settled, the family called Aunt Lin back. How could a farmer who had made a comeback help a counter-revolutionary?
There had never been a small market in D City. The vegetable sellers would only find an empty space at the entrance of the shop and place baskets or bamboo baskets with vegetables. They would stand or sit on the ground to sell vegetables. There were also some who poured a pot of tea and sat at the table in front of the tea shop. They drank tea while selling vegetables. There were vegetable stalls on both sides of the two main commercial streets. The crossroad was even more noisy. When Luo Yuzhen bought vegetables, she did not haggle or pick. I'm afraid of blushing when bargaining, and I don't know whether it's good or bad when picking. Some of them knew her, and some of them saw that she was gentle and straightforward, so they picked out the best dishes for her. She didn't even look at the scale. She would just say how much it was. Why didn't you calculate how much it should be? How much do you want to give? Even if the seller had unintentionally looked at the flowers and calculated more money, she would not have known and would have taken it away. Usually, the seller would only know when he realized that he had made a mistake and chased after her to return the favor. She smiled and thanked him before leaving. She did not blame anyone or herself. There was no need to mention the butcher shop, the southern goods shop, and the fish shop. She knew what her family wanted and how much she wanted without her asking. There was no need to buy fish. Recently, the Shen siblings had sent more frequently. The siblings were not afraid of fishing boats. They did not believe that Hua Shiliang would do counter-revolutionary things.
Luo Yuzhen returned home with a basket full of vegetables. She saw that Hua Shiliang's table was full of offerings. Hua Shijie and Bing Huan were standing at the table. She thought that her relatives and friends had avoided them far away. Who would be so bold as to bring offerings and incense into this door? When she walked into the living room, the person also stood up after bowing. It turned out to be Song Jingzhong, the herbal doctor.
Song Jingzhong was also from D City. He used to live in the wall courtyard opposite the Hua family. His father was a scholar in the late Qing Dynasty. He died when he was three years old. His mother, the Cai family, raised his siblings. When he was fourteen, he learned Chinese herbal medicine from the abbot of Cixiang Temple outside the north gate. At the age of 18, he began his wandering life. Ever since he met Zhou Peiying's master, Lu Chunhua, at the age of 22, he fell in love with her and secretly cheated on her. He never married again and made his granddaughter Song Liping his daughter. A year before the Liberation, although he had moved to live outside the North Gate with his mother, every time he came back from other places, he would always come to see Hua Shiliang. Hua Shiliang was six years older than him and had treated him like a younger brother since he was young. Whenever he stumbled outside, Hua Shiliang and his wife took good care of his mother. He was also very grateful. He had always been forthright. After more than ten years in the martial world, he valued the word "righteousness" more. He was a person who dared to put his life on the line for his friends. He had been selling herbs in Suzhou since he left for the Lantern Festival this year. When he heard the news about the Hua Clan in the Joy Pavilion teahouse, he was both heartbroken and angry. He didn't believe that Hua Shiliang would use medicine to kill someone. He had traveled to many places, and most of the people he came into contact with were farmers, workers, and craftsmen. When the Great Party came, these people indeed had a higher social status and a better life. He also supported the Great Party from the bottom of his heart, so he could not believe that the Great Party had messed with Hua Shiliang. He felt that there was something fishy about it. He had made up his mind to clear up this matter and return Hua Shiliang's innocence. He would not let his friend down. Today, he had specially prepared a table of sacrificial food, held paper ingots and incense sticks, and walked through the streets to chase after Hua Shiliang. Before this, someone had advised him to quietly go to the Hua family and kowtow a few times to Hua Shiliang's memorial tablet. He did not want to be so arrogant and let the government know that it was not good. He said that the Great Party would not malign good people. He had been innocent all his life and was upright and upright. What was there to be afraid of? Besides, he and Hua Shiliang were brothers. Why would he have to be sneaky? If I have to go to jail for this, I won't complain! He didn't wail at Hua Shiliang's portrait. He didn't know how to. However, she also shed a lot of sad tears.
Luo Yuzhen knew that he liked to eat wild animals like deer and rabbits, so she asked Hua Shijie to buy some from the delicatessen that sold wild animals on the straight street so that he could stay for dinner. He would not stand on ceremony. In the past, he would usually speak first. Today, he was drinking here and asking someone to buy some vegetables. It was as if he was at his own brother's and sister-in-law's house. Luo Yuzhen admired his forthright temper. In the past, only when he came would he be willing to accompany the two brothers for a few drinks. Although Luo Yuzhen didn't show any worry when drinking today, she was still the same as usual. After all, without Hua Shiliang, Song Jingzhong couldn't be happy. He asked Luo Yuzhen and Hua Shijie about the cause of Hua Shiliang's death and the case. Luo Yuzhen knew what he was thinking. She was afraid that he would get involved in this mess, so she didn't want to say anything. Hua Shijie, however, came up with an excuse. Song Jingzhong did not say anything else and asked Luo Yuzhen to hand over the complaint to him so that he could appeal. He repeatedly said that the Great Party was wise. Even if there were a few muddle-headed officials, in the end, the truth would come out and this unjust case would be settled. He had absolute faith in the Great Party. Luo Yuzhen did not agree to let him step forward and repeatedly advised him not to get involved in this matter. She also believed that the Great Party would definitely avenge her in the end. Song Jingzhong knew Luo Yuzhen's temper. She would never change her words. He could only say," How about this? As long as it's of use to me, sister-in-law can say it. Even if I have to go through a mountain of knives or a sea of fire, I, Song Jingzhong, will never blink or frown." Then, he bit his middle finger to show his sincerity. After drinking, he put on his straw hat and went out.
Luo Yuzhen remembered that she had forgotten to give him the poplin material she wanted to give his mother. She quickly asked Hua Shijie to catch up with him and give it to him.
Luo Yuzhen had been feeling frustrated these few days. It was said that after the district meeting with County Head Zhou, he went back to the county for a walk and then went to the province for a meeting. She did not know how long the meeting would last. She couldn't wait to see the county head as soon as possible so that she could make a decision. Even if it didn't work, she could go to the district to complain as soon as possible. If this case continued to drag on, she had a feeling that it might affect her children and her uncle. It was a good thing that Binghuan was ahead of the final decision to enter university, so it didn't affect his admission. However, school was about to start. Although Bing Ying had also attended the teachers 'meeting, she was not in a good mood when she left. Although she had a smile on her face, the melancholy hidden in the depths of her smile could not be hidden from this attentive mother. Her daughter had probably been criticized by some people. Little Uncle's mood was also a little abnormal. He was going in and out. No one knew what he was busy with. Needless to say, it must be related to the case. It was really a toothache, and his mouth was full of uneasiness. Since the storm was coming, it should come earlier. For the future peace of the Hua Family, she was willing to pay any price. She saw that the balsam leaves under the eaves in front of the guest hall were a little wilted. She remembered that she had not watered them recently, so she went to fetch water to water them. This year, she had also harvested a lot of balsam seeds, but they were not as exuberant as in previous years. She thought that when people were troubled, the flowers would suffer more. She reached out and gently comforted the flowers, feeling that she had neglected them. He softly chanted,"The title is the highest, and the head is leaning against the vermilion railing."”
At dusk, Shen Huilian came in with a pail. Luo Yuzhen saw that there were two big mandarin fish that weighed two catties swimming in the bucket. She was too embarrassed to accept them and advised Hui Lian to sell them on the street. Hui Lian just smiled and walked into the kitchen. She picked up the knife and killed her. She only asked if she wanted it to be clear or braised. She could only smile helplessly and say that she would clear the mound. Unexpectedly, someone said braised it behind his back. Luo Yuzhen turned around and saw that it was Jiang Shanshan. She was so happy that she opened her arms to hug her. Jiang Shanshan had already opened her arms and pounced over. The two of them hugged each other tightly. They were like sisters who had reunited after a long time. Jiang Shanshan's heart ached when she saw the white silk flower on Luo Yuzhen's hair bun, and she choked. Luo Yuzhen couldn't help but feel touched, and a string of pearl-like tears fell. Luo Yuzhen restrained herself, and Jiang Shanshan was also persuaded by her. Seeing that there were people around, she did not say anything.
Jiang Shanshan loved mandarin fish. She laughed and taunted Luo Yuzhen,""My good sister, you're so full of Tang and Song poems that you've forgotten the term 'peach blossom flowing water mandarin fish fat'. When the peach blossoms bloom, the Chinese perch is the fattest. It is clear and delicious. The fish meat is fat and tender. Once it enters summer, the fish will be thinner and the meat will be tougher. It is best to make the golden braised Chinese perch. The fish meat will be crispy and delicate. If you don't believe me, I will make it for you to try. This is what you said about the same dish being cooked differently in different seasons. You forgot, but I remember.”Jiang Shanshan went to the stove after saying that. Luo Yuzhen fanned him. Shijie, Binghuan, and Huimin, three drenched people, carried a bunch of crabs into the kitchen. It turned out that Byung Hwan had coaxed Huimin to go swimming and touch crabs. This was Huimin's specialty. Luo Yuzhen quickly asked them to put down the crab and go upstairs to change their clothes. Luo Yuzhen deliberately joked with Jiang Shanshan,""It's not the season for 'chrysanthemum yellow crab fat'. This crab should be braised too.”Jiang Shanshan didn't hold back either. She smiled and said," Then I'll cook you too. It's white, tender, and fragrant."”Hui Lian, who was sitting in front of the stove, chuckled when she heard this.
Not only was Jiang Shanshan good at drinking, but she was also good at drinking games. She knew that Luo Yuzhen was the only one who was a match for her. She was in a bad mood today, and she didn't know if the other four would have a drinking game. She couldn't wait for the other four to drink enough and leave, leaving her and Luo Yuzhen to drink and chat happily. Therefore, she only cared about drinking.
Bing Huan saw that Aunt Shanshan hadn't visited for a long time and had specially stayed for a drink today. He guessed that she had something to talk about. Besides, his mother loved to talk about the long and short things with her, so she urged Shijie and Huimin to drink quickly and go to the long bridge to enjoy the cool. Hui Lian was a smart person and wasn't used to drinking. Without saying anything, she also went home.
After Bing Huan and the other three left, Jiang Shanshan told Luo Yuzhen about the quarrel with Fang Zhaorong today. She told her everything Fang Zhaorong had said. She had no intention of protecting her husband at all. She believed too much in her absolute authority in the family. It was impossible for her to see through her husband's tricks at once, so she believed her husband's confession. Out of her sincerity towards the Hua family, she still found a moral error in her husband's confession. She said that it was not that Fang Zhaorong was speechless, but that he was afraid that she would lose her position. In fact, he could argue with the investigation team that it was not a mistake because the medical records and prescriptions were there. Whether or not he said it was to show his sincerity to his friend. Only when he said it with his mouth could he be sincere. As for whether he believed it or not, it was up to others. Even if others said that he was deliberately protecting her, it was not a big deal. At most, he could go home and practice medicine. She hated her husband for being too selfish and ungrateful. She hated herself for being blind to pick such a timid and selfish person. After more than ten years of husband and wife life, she finally saw a little mold in this family that had been closed for many years. She also began to wake up, but she could not jump out of the dark courtyard and accept the sunshine of the new society. This was because she could not completely get rid of the vines of love that had tightly entangled her in the past society. It was really inextricable. It was impossible for her not to be prejudiced against the reality in front of her. It was like a person who was used to taking a hot bath. Even in the summer, if you asked her to take a cold bath, he would not be used to it and would even scream. It was very difficult for people's ideology to be freed from traditional habits. In fact, she was a person who was very sensitive to new things and yearned for them. Her middle school life could have pulled her out of a feudal family, but her beauty was pulled into the love of Wang Yang too early, causing the emotional storm to push into the selfish courtyard. Even if it wasn't Fang Zhaorong, there would be someone else. Because she was a flower coveted by the city's silkpants. It was already rare for her to have a subtle awakening until today. As long as there was a strong force, it could help her pull the sail of this awakening high.
Luo Yuzhen believed Jiang Shanshan's words without a doubt. She knew that Jiang Shanshan's relationship with her was sincere. Jiang Shanshan's sympathy for the Hua family was not hypocritical at all. She was very grateful. From what Fang Zhaorong had said to Jiang Shanshan, she had discovered that Fang Zhaorong was lying. She thought that Fang Zhaorong's theory of " medical error " was not something hard to say, and at least Fang Zhaorong had participated in the production of this inference. As for the label of " intentional ", it might not have been Fang Zhaorong who added it. She thought that with his tactful ways of dealing with people, it was impossible for him not to leave her with the slightest room for retreat. She didn't think that Fang Zhaorong was afraid of losing his position. On the contrary, he wanted to be promoted. However, she did not share her thoughts with Jiang Shanshan. She knew that once she said it, Jiang Shanshan would go back and interrogate her husband again, which would cause an argument. She was aware of Jiang Shanshan's hatred for her husband, and this hatred would very likely lead to a split between the husband and wife. She knew Jiang Shanshan too well. Once this woman realized that she had been deceived, she would never be lenient. She would only challenge her and would never retreat and make peace. She didn't want Jiang Shanshan to fall out with her husband or even split up because of her family. She would deal with her family's matters herself and did not need anyone else to interfere. She also understood that up until now, Fang Zhaorong would never stand up and deny her because of his wife's opposition. She could only rely on her own unwavering appeal. In turn, she consoled Jiang Shanshan, saying that Fang Zhaorong indeed had his difficulties. Why must he make things difficult for others? It's enough that he didn't say anything. I'm very grateful. His medical license was revoked by the government, so he couldn't give it to him just because he wanted to. Don't make things difficult for him to disobey the higher-ups. As long as this injustice was settled, the government would naturally reissue the license. Besides, even if he had a medical license, who would treat him? Although I have learned it and obtained a doctor's degree a few years ago, can I calm down and receive patients? No. I'm busy with the appeal. Seeing that Jiang Shanshan had calmed down a little, she advised her to go back. After all, husband and wife were husband and wife and should be harmonious. Jiang Shanshan was unwilling to go home no matter what. Before she left, she had already made it clear to Fang Zhaorong that she wouldn't go home until she saw the Hua family's license. If she went back, wouldn't she be slapping herself? A wife's order was like a military order. It could not be changed or disobeyed. Otherwise, would he still have the dignity of a general? She couldn't forgive and give in to such a selfish husband. She had to be more strict in the future. I, Jiang Shanshan, would rather lose a selfish husband than give up my dignity as a woman.
Luo Yuzhen adopted a compromise method. She asked Fang Zhaorong to invite her, and Xue Dingshan invited Fan Lihua three times. Sincerity was the best. If he sincerely came to invite you, wouldn't he just give you some dignity? Wouldn't he just sweep away his dignity and return your self-esteem? Jiang Shanshan was still unwilling. She smiled and said that she had gangrene or sores on her body. She was afraid that she would infect you, so she hated her so much. The more you push me, the more I won't leave. Even if I'm a phthisical ghost, I'll still pester you. Even if you didn't call Fang Zhaorong, he would still kneel down every three steps. If he had Xue Dingshan's temperament, I would really admire him. I'll die here today.
Luo Yuzhen knew that persuading her would be a waste of time, so she let her stay tonight. The two sisters could chat and relieve their loneliness. They didn't want to let down this good girl's sincerity.
After taking a shower, they chatted in Yuzhen's room. Luo Yuzhen made a cup of coffee for Jiang Shanshan and a cup of chrysanthemum tea for herself. She also filled a plate with creamy watermelon seeds and a plate of candied green plums. Jiang Shanshan was very good at munching on melon seeds. She put the melon seeds into her mouth. Without using her hands, she only used her teeth. With a crack, the sharp ends of the two melon seeds separated. With a lick of her tongue, the melon seeds fell on her tongue. Then, he spat out the melon seed shell. The two shells were still joined together. His speed was not slower than others. Even Luo Yuzhen was impressed. Jiang Shanshan felt wronged for Hua Shiliang, but at the same time, she also felt resentful for the setbacks she had suffered. She did have some complaints about reality. However, he still supported the Great Party. She still firmly believed in the propaganda and education of the Death Master. This was because intelligent, wise, honest, simple, and upright teachers would never blindly believe in Communism and sacrifice their young lives for it. Moreover, the spirit of the dead teacher's propaganda had been reflected in the Common Program adopted at the National Political Conference. Regarding what happened in front of her, she thought that the cultural quality of the officials in D City was too low. Some of them had rushed over from the smoke of the revolutionary war, and some were selected from the workers and farmers. Although they had the enthusiasm to sacrifice for the revolution, they lacked deep rationality. They did not understand the policy spirit of their superiors deeply. They only treated the complicated reality with class feelings and shallow knowledge. It was inevitable that they were impetuous, unclear of right and wrong, unable to distinguish between good and evil, and could not distinguish between good and evil. They were subjective and arbitrary when dealing with things. Overcorrected, forgetting the old saying: "If you can get it on horseback, why don't you govern it on horseback?”," Might and faith go hand in hand, virtue and law complement each other."
Luo Yuzhen felt that although what she said made sense, it was just a little extreme. There are also capable and wise people among the officers of D City. We can only say that we haven't discovered them yet. This is because we have lived in seclusion for many years and have only just stepped out of our homes. It could also be said that he was ignorant and could not be blinded by a leaf.
Jiang Shanshan was referring to the two leaders of the county. Wasn't it up to them to decide what was right and what was wrong? If they could see through the details, would they still need you to barge into the county government? However, you shouldn't pin your hopes on D City anymore. In my opinion, it's better for me to go to the district and provincial capital with you to report it. Brother Shiliang's matter is also my matter, we should be in the same boat through thick and thin.
Although Luo Yuzhen was grateful, she couldn't bear to see Jiang Shanshan get involved in her complaint. The risk was too great, so he tried to dissuade his good sister.
Jiang Shanshan understood Luo Yuzhen's intentions and did not say anything else. She knew that she would not stand by and watch if necessary. Bing Huan and the others came back and shouted in the guest hall, inviting them downstairs to eat watermelon. Jiang Shanshan was too lazy to go downstairs and said she didn't want it. However, Hua Shijie fawned over them and brought half a watermelon upstairs. He remembered their concern and love for him. He said that this was a genuine Pinghu watermelon, with red dipper and black spots. The skin was thin and the juice was fresh. It was a pity not to eat it. After eating the watermelon, the two of them went to sleep. The wind blowing from the Qingxi River was chilly, but no one could fall asleep. They began to talk softly again.
Jiang Shanshan recalled the performance of Ibsen's " A Doll's House " when she was a student. Nora, who she played, woke up and ran away from home. She did not expect to walk into a real " Doll's House ". On the surface, Fang Zhaorong was afraid of her and went along with her. In fact, it was just the beauty of love, and he only treated her as Nora's family doll. She finally saw through his selfishness. Now she had to learn from Nora to step out of this house and walk her own path. What kind of path should he take? She was born into a family that had been doing business for generations. She knew that she had the guts, but she had no strategy. No business was treacherous. She did not know how to plan. Joining a job was too tiring, and she was used to it. As for work, she would go to and from work on time every day. She did not have to suffer from this. After much thought, she wanted to build a theater. There were no theatres in D City yet. The performances of the troupes were either on the stage of the temple or on a temporary empty space surrounded by bamboo curtains and reed curtains. A temporary stage was set up inside. Those who wanted to watch the show would go and grab a spot early to place a stool, or they would stand and watch. In the past two years, there had been more people watching the show. Even the farmers from the surrounding areas had come to watch the show after dinner. However, once it rained and snowed, they would not be able to perform. If they could build a decent theater, they wouldn't have to worry about rain or snow. They could sit comfortably and watch. How good would that be? Business would definitely be good. As a theater fan boss, she could enjoy watching the show and earn money comfortably. She had also done a good deed for all the theater fans. Sister Yuzhen, what do you think?
Luo Yuzhen felt that it was not a good idea for Jiang Shanshan to play mahjong all the time. She should do something for herself. Opening a theater was indeed a good fit for Jiang Shanshan's personality. This line of work couldn't be done well without a bit of shrewdness. Luo Yuzhen strongly agreed with Jiang Shanshan's decision. She even said that if she didn't have enough money, she could raise some. When Song Jingzhong returned, she would discuss it with him. If he was willing to cooperate, Lu Chunhua would not stand by and watch. This way, Lu Chunhua would be able to invite the troupe in the future. She was a famous actress in Hangjiahu, Suzhou, and Wuxi. Her master was also a famous actor in Shanghai's Yue opera industry. The troupe she invited would definitely not be bad.
Jiang Shanshan tried her best to get Luo Yuzhen to do it together, even if she didn't have to take out any funds. She said that she would be in charge of the outside world, and that she would definitely be able to make the theater grand. Luo Yuzhen didn't agree. She said that she was not interested in this industry. She still liked being a doctor. I can only help you with some small ideas. Jiang Shanshan couldn't force him, so she let it go. If she really needed help, Luo Yuzhen would definitely help.
Luo Yuzhen hoped that Jiang Shanshan would do it immediately. Once this matter was settled, Jiang Shanshan would be busy and would no longer care about her family's affairs. Moreover, once Jiang Shanshan started to discuss the theater, she would have to discuss it with Fang Zhaorong. The couple would also get better.
The next morning, they went to Song Jingzhong's house outside the North Gate after breakfast.
Song Jingzhong's mother, Mrs. Cai, was so happy that she didn't know what to say when she saw Luo Yuzhen. Cai's grandfather also passed the Jinshi examination and let go of a magistrate. Because he was upright and upright, he was not liked by his superiors. He retired home and taught his children and grandchildren to read and understand. Therefore, Cai also knew how to read and understand etiquette. She married Scholar Song for no reason, but he left her and her children early. She lived on the small fortune she had left behind. She had no money to let her children study, so she taught them herself. She was virtuous and the Hua family valued her very much and often gave her money. Hua Shiliang and his wife were also very concerned, so she deeply felt the kindness of the second generation of the Hua family. Yesterday, when she heard Song Jingzhong talk about Hua Shiliang, she cried the whole night and told her son to help the Hua family settle this injustice no matter what. She even used the Xu Cai Black Bone Case of the Daoguang years to teach her son to have the legacy of his ancestors. Today, when she saw Luo Yuzhen, she shed a burst of tears again. She encouraged Luo Yuzhen to be determined to avenge Hua Shiliang. Even if she had to complain to the emperor, she didn't have to be afraid. There was no injustice in the world that couldn't be avenged. Our Cai family was able to seek justice for such a big injustice during the feudal era, let alone in the great party that is striving for the liberation of the toiling people. This injustice will definitely be avenged. Grandmother Cai's words had indeed roused Luo Yuzhen's courage and determination.
When Song Jingzhong heard that Jiang Shanshan wanted to build a theater and asked him to help with it, he was naturally happy to comply. He sat down and discussed it carefully. After all, D City was small. The theater relied on the people in the city. If the business couldn't flourish, it had to rely on the farmers in the suburbs. However, farmers were seasonal. From spring plowing to summer harvesting and planting, they would not care about watching the show. There was also autumn harvesting and winter planting. It was estimated that there were four to five months of off-season, and the investment would be too slow to recover. He thought of an idea. Most of the female bosses in D City were opera fans. Why not share the shares and jointly organize it. You, Jiang Shanshan, can be considered as the initiator. You'll take 20% of the shares, and the remaining 80 shares will be taken by everyone. You said that I would handle the matter of the share offer, but I won't invest in it, nor will I take advantage of it. In the future, if you have any problems, just look for me. If there's anything you can't settle, I'll step in.
Luo Yuzhen felt that Song Jingzhong's method was excellent, and Jiang Shanshan was also very satisfied. This matter was settled. The two of them wanted to leave, but Mrs. Cai refused and insisted on staying for dinner. Luo Yuzhen could not stop Song Jingzhong from killing the chickens and ducks. At this moment, Lu Chunhua happened to rush over. She also brought two big carp, more than 500 grams of prawns, pork trotters, ham, and two bottles of Zhi Zhong and Wu Jia Pi.
During dinner, they discussed for a while while drinking. Lu Chunhua clapped her hands in praise and expressed her support. She even said that she would take care of the license.
After dinner, Mrs. Cai asked Luo Yuzhen to show her the complaint. She said that since the big case in the Daoguang years, everyone in the Cai family, from the white-haired old man to the ten-year-old child, knew how to write and use the words. It was even set as a compulsory course for the Ancestral Hall family, but it was only gradually abandoned when it was passed down to her generation. Let me take a look, and I might be able to fill you in. I can also say that the unjust case during the reign of Emperor Daoguang was able to startle the Emperor because of the last four sentences on the complaint: "Gold can buy the blue sky, white bones can be turned into black charcoal. Although there is no sun and moon in the south, there is still the blue sky in the north.”Luo Yuzhen also believed that she was telling the truth because Mrs. Cai used to talk to her about the knowledge of the Four Books and Five Classics. She was a person with a deep academic background and was good at writing small regular script. She had never shown off. If she had brought it with her today, she would definitely take it out and ask Madam Cai to correct her. Before she left, Mrs. Cai repeatedly told Luo Yuzhen to bring her the complaint form so that she could rest assured. Luo Yuzhen agreed.
Luo Yuzhen and Jiang Shanshan didn't return to the city until four o'clock because of the hot weather and the strong sun. They had just walked past the Confucius Temple when they bumped into Weng Zitang, who had come down from the Children's Bridge. Jiang Shanshan couldn't stand the way he lowered his head and bowed with a fake smile on his face. She wanted to pull Luo Yuzhen away. However, Weng Zitang welcomed him with a smile. He wanted to ignore Luo Yuzhen, but since Jiang Shanshan was beside him, he could only greet her with a smile. In fact, he was just trying to make conversation.
Luo Yuzhen and Jiang Shanshan greeted him and walked onto the child bridge.
Weng Zitang turned around and looked at the two women with a sneer. He thought to himself, Fang Zhaorong, you pretended to be improving on the surface, but you acted like you were serious. You investigated this family and that family, but it turned out that you were secretly colluding with the counter-revolution. He didn't want to show up and ask his wife to please him. Hehehe, you've made me eat my fill. I'm going to make sure you don't shit. Six months of debt must be paid quickly! He turned around, put his hands behind his back, stepped on his shadow, shook his head, and hummed the lyrics of " Lu Chunyang's Three Plays with the White Peony " in the song of the parrot song." I'll bet on your girl's exquisite and exquisite appearance. I'll bet on your girl's tall and towering Jade Liquid Peak. I'll bet on your girl's dark immortal cave..." The more he thought about it, the more proud he became. The more he hummed, the louder his voice became.
Fei Guixiang, who was about to go look for her godmother, happened to walk across from him. His eyes fell on Fei Guixiang again. Fei Guixiang knew what he was singing. She was embarrassed and angry. She walked up and slapped him.
Weng Zitang held his face that had been beaten up. He was angry, anxious, and confused. He pointed at Fei Guixiang and shouted sternly,"You, you dare to hit someone for no reason!”
"It's too easy for you to hit you. I still have to send you to the police station.”
"The police station is your grandmother's house! That's easy for you to say. It's illegal for you to hit people!”
"It's not illegal for you to tease me on the streets in broad daylight.”
"I teased you?"
"Who are you staring at with those eyes of yours? What are you singing? If this isn't flirting, what is?"
Only then did Weng Zitang realize that his singing had been misunderstood by this shrew. He wanted to explain,""I'm singing an act, not you-"
Fei Guixiang raised her eyebrows in anger. I'll go to the police station with you to make a judgment. Let's go!”
Weng Zitang was afraid. He obediently admitted his bad luck and hurriedly fled. After walking for a while, he turned around and saw that Fei Guixiang had already walked far away. He spat out a mouthful of saliva and cursed softly,"Little vixen! I teased you? Even if you took off your pants and gave me a X for free, I still need to be coquettish, little vixen!”He turned around and walked on his own shadow, half happy and half resentful.
