Yang Xianmao's words made Hu Laosan and the others shake their heads, looked at Yang Xianmao and said: "You must know that this Zhang Yuanlang in the school examination, the eldest man who is an official, and the three wives and four concubines are not an ordinary thing. If that's the case, those old men with three wives and four concubines should all be punished by God, so wouldn't this world be messed up?"

Liu Dongyan's eyes widened, and he said: "My brother is right, why do women have to be abandoned by men? He would have died a long time ago, and he didn't want to repay his kindness, what kind of man was he? Moreover, he sent people to hunt down and kill people, so he didn't recognize her, so why bother to take her life? If this kind of man is not retributed by God, God will do things unfairly!"

As soon as they heard this, the stewards looked at each other and burst into laughter.

Liu Dongyan was still a little unconvinced, turned his head to look at the housekeeper next to him and said, "Butler, what you said is right." ”

But the housekeeper didn't answer the question, looked outside and said, "It's getting dark, if you still talk like this again, you will delay watching the play, you are not in a hurry, I am in a hurry." ”

As soon as Hu Laosan heard this, he quickly stood up and said, "Yes, yes, go to the play, the show will start after dark, but the gongs and drums at the beginning have not sounded yet, it should be in time, drink this bowl and leave." With that, he took the wine and drank it.

The others also drank with them, and they all left the dining hall and went to the theater. Liu Dongyan followed Yang Xianmao out, still a little unconvinced, and said to Yang Xianmao: "Brother, do you think so too?"

In the ancient era of male superiority and inferiority of women, as the mainstream of men's thoughts, it was indeed as Hu Laosan said, including Yang Xianmao also felt that what they said seemed to have some truth, but of course he couldn't agree, because in his opinion, feelings were really hurtful, for the love of men and women, he tortured himself until he fell ill, that is, he was mistaken by feelings, which is the reason for being too infatuated. However, after experiencing Xia Yinhua's incident, he knew that he was no longer qualified to talk about the relationship between men and women in this life, so as not to harm others and himself, and only increase the pain, so he just said lightly: "Monks, dedicated to cultivation, I have long put aside the affairs of men and women." ”

Liu Dongyan seemed to understand and said, "Then you are still as good as Sister Xia and that Jima?"

As soon as he heard this, Yang Xianmao couldn't help but smile bitterly, Liu Dongyan knew this very well, and he also saw with his own eyes that Yang Xianmao was heartbroken because he might lose Xia Yinhua, but later Yang Xianmao set up an altar to pray for forgiveness, which made Xia Yinhua Yuan Shen possess wake up. The details of this are unknown to Liu Dongyan, and he doesn't know that since then, Yang Xianmao can only use his sword to cut the love silk. Therefore, in her opinion, Yang Xianmao's words seemed a little insincere, but she didn't expect to talk about Yang Xianmao's sore spot.

Yang Xianmao and his party came to the theater, there were already a lot of people sitting here, basically everyone who could walk away in the courtyard came here, and there were hundreds of people.

The rows of chairs in front of the stage, which are for the number one person in the homecoming courtyard, of course, also include middle-level cadres and stewards like Yang Xianmao, the front row of seats is still empty, and the back is already full of stewards in each room.

Some of the old mothers in charge and some other handymen, and the maids, stood in a half-circle behind the chairs, chattering, and after seeing Yang Xianmao and them coming, a stage steward hurriedly came to greet them.

Walking in front is the housekeeper, that is the most powerful person in the village except for the owner, but he can only sit in one of the second rows, and the others find their own seats according to their respective ranks, although Yang Xianmao has been valued by the old lady, but after all, it is new, so it is arranged on the side of the second row, and next to him is Liu Dongyan, Liu Dongyan gave him a position of deputy steward, so he also gave him a chair.

Hu Laosan burped and said, "How about it, I haven't started yet, what's the hurry." ”

Qian Caiban pointed to the distance and said: "Why aren't you in a hurry, do you see it?" All the young grandparents are here, as soon as they arrive at this scene, it will start, we are just right, it will not be good to delay any longer, you can't enter behind the master." ”

Hearing this, Hu Laosan stopped talking to him, because the pedestrian had already come closer.

The maids and ordinary servants standing on the periphery hurriedly got out of the way. The one who walked in the front was the homebound young master Gui Biao who he met on the road earlier, and it was obvious that he had woken up at this moment. When he got closer, he sat down on the middle chair.

The old lady didn't come, he never participated in this kind of party, he resolutely opposed his second son learning to sing, so he almost forced his son to hang himself, so he naturally wouldn't come to cheer. And Mrs. Xiaoshan's body, she didn't want to show her face in front of people, especially on this occasion, so she didn't come.

The second aunt who returned to the owner of the village came, but she was the identity of the aunt, although she was an elder, she couldn't hold it in front of the eldest young master, so she naturally gave up the main position to the eldest young master, and she sat in the second seat. The eldest grandmother and the second grandmother sat separately. The one who came in immediately behind was actually a young Dao girl, who was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was not serious at all, she followed behind an old Dao girl.

The old Taoist aunt wore a straight face and clothes, a solemn appearance, with a rosary around her neck, one palm folded, and walked in while chanting the scriptures.

Qian comprador who was sitting next to Yang Xianmao whispered to him who he introduced one by one, and when he introduced the young girl in a Taoist robe in the back, Qian Procurement laughed hehehe, lowered his voice and leaned into Yang Xianmao's ear and said: "This is the third girl, the sister of the second young master, she has liked Taoism since she was a child, and she worshiped a master, and the master in front of her is his master, surnamed He." The three girls set up altars everywhere in the courtyard all day to catch ghosts, one moment said that there were ghosts and evil here, and the other said that there were goblins there, and there were everywhere with drawing talismans, and the old lady looked at it and shook her head, but there were no ghosts anywhere. She was obviously messing around, but thinking that she was a girl's house, and she couldn't go out on the street easily, she could only let her toss and relieve her boredom in the house. ”

After the three girls sat down, they looked east and west, and when they saw Yang Xianmao, they couldn't help but show joy on their faces, and after standing up and saying a few words to his master, her master also turned his head to look at Yang Xianmao, nodded slowly, and then Gui Ling'er came to Yang Xianmao around the chair, put one hand together, and said, "Brother Dao, the poor nun is polite." ”

Yang Xianmao was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he had shown the master the degree of the monk before, and the housekeeper also knew that he was a monk, so this word must have reached the ears of this third girl who liked Taoism since she was a child, so she came to call her brother and brother.

Yang Xianmao also stood up, took his head seriously, and said, "Third girl, I am not here as a Taoist, I am hired to take care of things here." ”

The third girl said, "I don't care what you do now, I ask you if you have become a monk or a Taoist." ”

Yang Xianmao nodded and said: "That's true, it's just that our Taoist temple was on fire, so all the senior brothers went their separate ways, and I happened to come to Guizhuang." ”

Gui Ling'er said happily: "I also like Taoism, I asked to be a Taoist aunt several times, but my father and mother just didn't agree, so angry that I had no choice, so I had to wear Taoist robes at home to have a good time." By the way, tell me, is it fun to be a Taoist priest? What do you usually do? Do you have any women in your Taoist temple? Can you drink wine and eat meat? Can you get married and marry ......a wife?"

With Gui Ling'er's series of questions, Yang Xianmao didn't even have time to answer, and at this moment, a gong sounded from the theater floor, indicating that the show was about to start, making everyone silent.

Gui Ling'er said to Yang Xianmao: "Watch the play first, I'll come to you when I go back, you have to teach me Taoism, my father said that you have a lot of strength, you must have some Taoism to enhance your strength, you must teach me, I will also have a lot of Taoism, I can change with you when the time comes." ”

After that, Gui Ling'er winked at him, then turned around and returned to his seat like a gust of wind, and after sitting down, he turned his head and grinned at Yang Xianmao.

At this time, the drums on the theater floor sounded in unison, and then someone sang loudly, and then the curtain was lifted, and a woman came out of the backstage.

The woman turned her back to the audience, raised the sleeve of her right hand, the sleeve robe covered a face, and the long hair on her back hung down, tied together in the back of her heart, hanging down to her slender waist, looking extraordinarily charming.

Her steps were light, as if she was sliding on ice, and the people in the audience suddenly burst into thunderous applause, and some applauded loudly.

Next to him, Qian Procurement said to Yang Xianmao: "This is the second young master, look, how well he dances, you will listen to him sing later, that is beauty!"

Yang Xianmao nodded, and admired in his heart, this second young master is really versatile, look at the pace of movement under his feet, it is really more feminine than a woman, and that figure is also extraordinarily soft, as leisurely as a willow breeze, but unfortunately she hasn't turned her face yet, presumably her appearance is also good, just look at her figure.

Yang Xianmao was thinking wildly, and he could hear the second young master on the stage singing tactfully, and sang along with the accompanying music: "The flowers are falling and the water is red, there are thousands of sorrows, and there is no word to complain about the east wind." ”

These few sentences of drama were sung, and the audience suddenly burst into thunderous applause and applause. The most fierce scream was the third girl Gui Ling'er, she also stood up from time to time, raised her hands, and shouted vigorously: "Second brother is amazing!"

After singing these few words, the second young master on the stage covered his face with his water sleeves, walked around the stage like flowing water, and when he appeared in front of the stage, the audience was applauded again.

It's just that this cheer is far less real than what came just now, at least I heard it in Yang Xianmao's ears. Because, he has already seen the appearance of the second young master, and of course he knows why the applause is so different. Because of the appearance of the second young master, it is too cold, and it can be said that it is too weird.

The second young master and the previous Gui Biao both have a plate face, and the cheekbones are relatively high, it is difficult to pretend to be a stunning beauty with this kind of face shape. However, if Yang Xianmao came to dress her up, at least she would look much better than now, she looked at least like a woman, and now she doesn't even look like a shemale, it's like a big man wearing a woman's clothes to come out, because his makeup is not on the spot, and he doesn't use the disguise technique, so it looks really frightening, and he really doesn't dare to look at it again.
