There is a scholar with an upright temperament, who is as evil as hatred; he is brilliant in literature, talented and high-level, and he will not bend the committee, and he has been referred to many times, but he is unknown on the dragon list. One day, I drank at a friend's house, came home drunk, fell halfway and fell unconscious, and was carried back by my family and lay in bed, just drowsy.

The scholar fell, felt like he had become a stone, and was then lifted. I heard someone say, "I have found a piece of fine jade!" More than a dozen people came up to watch, and everyone said, "Sure enough, it is a good jade!" The strong man who carried him wrapped him in a yellow cloth, put him in a bag, and staggered away on his back. The scholar shouted, "Where is this, what do you want to do? I'm Huang Xiucai!" He screamed violently, but the others were indifferent.

He heard a man say, "Wang Liu, you are here, you have a good jade?" The one who called Wang Liu said: "Boss Zhang, what do you think of the jade I got today? I think the color is the best!" Huang Xiucai felt that he was placed on the counter, and Wang Liu took it out of the bag, opened the package, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He saw an old man with a gray beard pick him up, leaned over to look at him carefully, flipped back and forth, and was amazed, and praised him again and again: "Good jade! Good jade! Rare! Huang Xiucai was so angry that he scolded: "Phew, don't you recognize your Uncle Huang? You two get out of here!" The two of them ignored him at all, and continued to play with him turning him over and turning it over. I only heard Wang Liu say: "Boss Zhang, give a good price." The boss Zhang said: "It is a good jade, carved out in the hands of a famous artist, it is a priceless treasure, eight hundred taels of silver." Wang Liu said: "It's rare to meet in this mine for a hundred years, a thousand taels!" Boss Zhang pondered for a while and said: "I won't treat you badly, don't argue if I say a price, nine hundred taels of silver!" Wang Liu said: "Okay, I will get good jade in the future, and I will come to our jade shop." Boss Zhang paid the silver ticket, and Wang Liu left. Huang Xiucai was furious and scolded: "You two dogs and men have sold the master as an object, see if I don't go to court to sue you two for the crime of human trafficking!"

Huang Xiucai saw Boss Zhang write a note, and wrapped him up and carried him out of the door, Huang Xiucai scolded: "Where are you carrying the master! You put the master down and be respectful!" He felt that Boss Zhang took him on the horse, galloped for a while, Boss Zhang got off the horse, and heard Boss Zhang say: "This military master, I am from the 'Rare Hall', this is my name, I want to see the prefect, please report it." Junmen said: "What 'rare hall, fake rare hall' master no one can see!" Boss Zhang smiled and said: "Master Jun, this is twenty taels, don't be too little, buy a pot of wine to drink." The military gate said: "Okay! I'll give you a trip, I can't see you, I have to see what the old man commands!" After waiting for a long time, the military gate came out and said, "You come with me!" Boss Zhang followed the military gate around the corner and walked for a while, and heard the military gate say, "Lord Yu, bring the person who wants to see you." A majestic voice said, "Come in." Boss Zhang hurriedly stepped forward, knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Xiaomin Zhang Youde visited the prefect." The prefect said, "Well, what do you want to see in this mansion?" Boss Zhang raised Huang Xiucai above his head and said: "Xiaomin has obtained a piece of rare jade, and he doesn't dare to use it alone, so he has come to present it to the government." When the prefect heard this, he said, "Oh, you have the heart to pay tribute, and you have brought the strange jade to this mansion for inspection." A scholar came to pick up Huang Xiucai, put it on the bookcase, and opened the package. Huang Xiucai saw a man with a fat head and big ears and a gauze hat, took him in his hand and watched it carefully, nodding from time to time. Huang Xiucai scolded: "You dog official, look at the uncle!" At this time, the prefect said: "It's a good jade, Zhang Youde got up and spoke." Zhang Youde said: "Master Xie Zhifu." "Stand up. The prefect asked, "Do you still have something to say to the government?" Zhang Youde hurriedly knelt down and said, "The villain has a confidant to tell." With a wave of the prefect's hand, the scholar and the military gate went down. The prefect said to Zhang Youde: "What do you have to say?" Zhang Youde kowtowed again and said: "I ask the lord to be extrajudicial and forgiving, I have a son-in-law, because of a dispute with his neighbor in the past, I don't want to hurt people's lives by mistake, and I am still on death row. After hearing this, the prefect's face sank and said: "Is it the Wu Guogui who occupied the neighbor's field and beat the neighbor to death with his teammates?" Zhang Youde said: "It is the little son-in-law, ask the eldest lord to mediate, there are still two thousand taels of silver tickets here, it is not a tribute, please accept it with a smile." As he spoke, he took out the silver ticket from his bosom and put it on the table. The prefect glanced at the silver ticket with his eyeballs, and his face softened: "This Wu Guogui has no royal law! In the evil township, he has a bad reputation, and he has a big case where people's lives are at stake, and it is a bit tricky to deal with it as appropriate, you go back first, and this mansion has its own judgment!" Zhang Youde came out with gratitude. Huang Xiucai exploded his lungs in anger and scolded: "Dog official! What kind of official are you, you corrupt and corrupt officials, have you forgotten the teachings of the saints, and the laws and disciplines of the court? You two despicable and shameless traitors and villains, dog men and women! You are angry with your uncle!" He scolded Zhang Youde: "You brought the uncle here, it turned out that you were using the uncle to do bad things, you dog, mother-raised, scum scum with a bad conscience, you two brutes, who are inferior to cattle and horses, should be beheaded for public display!"

After the prefect waited for Zhang Youde to leave, he took the silver ticket, looked at the jade, laughed for a while, and said to himself: "What a treasure, I want to dedicate it to the imperial court, the saint loves jade, I must like it, Longyan Dayue, I want to be promoted again! He became even more angry, and scolded sharply regardless of the elegance: "You pig and dog mongrel, a beast born of rats, and the scum of the world! Uncle, I feel ashamed to see you! You damn beast, bastard, you still laugh! Damn! Damn it!" He was scolding vigorously, but the prefect didn't hear it at all, his face was full of spring breeze, humming a tune, and he walked out of the door with square steps.

Huang Xiucai saw that the prefect was gone, and he looked around, there were bookcases, antique shelves, and rattan couch hoop chairs. On the bookcase himself, he understood that this was a study. After a while, the light darkened, and it was dark outside. Huang Xiucai wanted to go down to the ground for a walk, but he couldn't shake his body at all with all his strength. He scolded: "His grandmother's, what's wrong with me! I'm angry with me! I'm anxious to die!" At this time, there were chaotic footsteps, and a woman's voice came: "I heard that the master got a piece of precious jade, I will come to see what it looks like." Yingfu, you go to the room and light the lamp. "Okay, second grandma, I'll go light the lamp." A young man's voice replied. A man walked in with a lantern and lit the candle on the bookcase. By candlelight, Huang Xiu saw that a house slave with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes followed by two women, a jeweled woman and a slender and thin maid ring. The woman saw Huang Xiucai at a glance, stretched out a delicate white jade-like hand, stroked him, and listened to her mouth: "It's really so good! The luster is warm, there are no flawless spots and miscellaneous traces, I want to use it to make a pair of bracelets, a pair of phoenix hairpins, and two bi pendants." She said and touched her hand back and forth, leaning her face closer, back and forth, left and right, turning it around, and seeing that it was not enough. Huang Xiucai scolded angrily: "Get out, you have divided the uncle as an object? You oily and flour-headed slut! Don't you know that men and women don't kiss each other? You stay away from me, stinky slut!" The woman suddenly stopped looking at the jade, turned her head to Yahuan and said: "Little Peach, you go back and feed the parrot, don't starve it, and water the flowers in the pot again, the master is in the front hall to accompany the guests, where do you go to take a look, don't come to pick me up, there is a blessing to send me back." The little girl said yes and left.

Seeing that Yahuan was gone, the woman walked out of the door and saw that Xiao Taohong was far away, and there was no one outside, so she returned to the house and closed the door. looked at the house slave Yingfu and said, "The master is meeting guests in the front hall, and you monkey cub are cheap again." As he spoke, he pressed his finger on Yingfu's forehead. Yingfu took the woman in his arms, blew out the candle, carried the woman to the couch, and said, "I will not forget the kindness of the second grandmother, and I will serve you well." Huang Xiucai was angry when he saw this, and scolded again: "You two well-dressed beasts, doing such a shameless thing!"

I don't know how many moments have passed, but he woke up, and saw that the lights in the room were on again, and the prefect was sitting in front of the bookcase and watching him carefully, and a watchman outside shouted: "Pay attention to the lights, close the door and lock it, three watches." A maidservant girl walked in outside the door, not very old, brought a plate of tea set and put it on the table and said, "Mrs. said that the master ate wine but did not eat tea, and asked me to bring a pot of tea to the master." The prefect looked at the girl ring and said, "You just came here with the green beads, right?" The girl replied timidly, "Yes." "How old are you?" asked the prefect further. "Sixteen years old. The girl replied weakly. The prefect stood up, stretched out his hand to grab Yahuan's wrist, and said, "Twenty-eight girls have willow waists." As he spoke, he gently twisted the green bead's tender cheeks with his other hand. Blinking drunkenly, the laughing fan just wanted to say something more. The scholar outside the door brought a basin of water, step in the door, step out of the door, and hesitated there. Seeing this, the green bead broke free and ran out. The prefect looked majestic again and said, "Bring me water and clean my feet." All this was seen and heard by Huang Xiucai, and he thought to himself: These shameless well-dressed beasts, no matter how they scold, they don't feel ashamed, uncle, I am not angry, but I want to see what you want to do.
