Chapter 123: The Old Story of the Green Building

"Where did you hear these stories, you are old, you always listen to some children's things. Ling Yun lifted her braided tail and shook it, saying.

Yang Lingya snatched her braids, blushed, and said, "Men and women don't kiss, whoever lets you touch my braids, go find your Oiran lady." ”

"The ending of your 'oil seller monopolizes the Oiran' is quite perfect, the beautiful girl met Qin Chong, and the fate is good, another story I have heard 'Du Shi Niang angrily sinks a hundred treasure chests', the ending is not so good, poor Du Shi Niang, who is conscientious, but met a person who is not a good person, and finally committed suicide by throwing himself into the river with countless jewels, which is really sad and lamentable. Ling Yun sighed with emotion, thinking of a woman who had no intention of turning back and regarded death as home, it must have been the world that had made her disheartened.

"It's easy to ask for priceless treasures, it's rare to have a lover, and since ancient times, how thin a life has been!" Yang Lingyan said with a stunned look, "I have never heard the story of Du Shi Niang, you might as well tell me about it, lest I encounter this kind of negative man in the future." ”

"Du Shi Niang's story is much more tragic. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Du Shi Niang, a famous prostitute in the capital, met Li Jia, a son of a rich family, and the two fell in love with each other and fell in love. Although Du Siniang intended to marry Li Jia, Li Jia was cowardly by nature and did not dare to agree for fear of his father's opposition. Despite this, the two still stay together all day long, like husband and wife. This aroused the dissatisfaction of the brothel boss and asked Li Jia to make up 300 taels of silver in exchange for Du Shi Niang's free body.

"Li Jia has spent extravagantly in the capital, and he has already spent all his coils. The two agreed to let Li Jia go out to borrow money. But Li Jia's reputation is not good, and relatives and friends all find excuses to excuse themselves, and they have not borrowed a penny. Li Jia was faceless in the face of Du Siniang, so he went to fellow villager Liu Yuchun's house to spend the night. Shi Niang learned the reason for not returning, so she handed him one hundred and fifty taels of silver. Later, Liu Sheng sponsored one hundred and fifty taels and handed it over to the bustard. The sisters knew that Shi Niang was leaving, so they were reluctant to give Shi Niang a box before leaving. ”

Li Jia asked what was in the box, and Shi Niang smiled but did not answer. Du Shi Niang and Li Jia took a boat back to their hometown on the way back to Guazhou Ferry when they met the rich young master Sun Fu, Sun Fu was amorous by nature and greedy for Shi Niang's beauty, so he instigated Li Fu to give Du Shi Niang to himself for a thousand gold and silver taels. Li Jia was afraid of his father at home, and he spent all his money and found nothing, so he listened to Sun Fu to curry favor with his father with thousands of gold and silver. When Du Siniang learned that she was sold, she was discouraged. But she still agreed to make the deal. On the bow of the boat, Du Shi Niang opened the box in public, and there were countless jewels in it, it turned out that Shi Niang knew that the bustard was greedy for money, and had a good plan to secretly accumulate a treasure chest. After she angrily reprimanded Li Jia and Sun Fu on the boat, she threw herself into the river with a treasure box and died, Li Jia regretted it, but it was too late. ”

Yang Lingya took a sip and said, "Phew, what Li Jia regrets is not that Du Shi Niang threw himself into the river, but that the priceless treasure chest is gone, and his heart aches for that money." ”

"Perhaps, the ancients 'would rather marry a good prostitute than marry a wife over the wall', once a Qinglou woman is good, that is, she is redeemed, she can only have one time in her life, if it exceeds the number of times, many people will feel that this person is an eventful woman and is not worthy of being ransomed. Qinglou women are generally redeemed, most of them will keep to themselves, stay at home, even if life is not brocade clothes, even if they occasionally have to suffer the humiliation of their husbands who redeemed themselves, they are willing to endure, because they are really unwilling to return to the Qinglou that eats ghosts, but unfortunately the women who have fallen into the dust have a bad reputation after all, and there is almost no one in a hundred who can have a happy ending after a good future. Lingyun said.

"Why are most of the people in the world who are negatively missed?" Yang Lingya wondered.

"Because even if a man is negative, how many people will pity him, everyone will only scold him and laugh at him, a big man, even his wife can't look at it, and let her run away, let alone write a sad and abnormal story to pity him. The world is inherently unfair to men and women, men are in a strong position, so in public opinion, the strong are in a weak position, no one is pitiful, women are the opposite, the status is weak, public opinion is strong, and in public opinion, everyone is more willing to tend to protect women, the world is like this, there is nothing strange. Ling Yun analyzed decently.

Yang Lingya showed a look of sudden realization, nodded, and said: "After you do this, many things in the world have been passed, no wonder everyone scolds the negative heart Lang a lot, scolds Chen Shimei, scolds Li Jia, but few people scold the negative woman, you must know that the woman's heart is more changeable, whoever is good to her will go with whom, the negative woman in the world may not be less than the negative heart." ”

Ling Yun yawned, pushed the empty noodle bowl in his hand aside, and said: "That's the case, if a man wants to be negative, he must be satisfied with the rich, good-looking and heart-to-heart, the oil seller Qin Zhong is not handsome or rich, but he has a heart after all, and later opened an oil seller, and he is also a rich businessman, otherwise the Oiran lady may not be willing to follow him to eat chaff." Not to mention Li Jia, his family is wealthy and he is a handsome son. Chen Shimei was also conceited after she became developed and wanted to kill her wife. And women are different, as long as there is a suitor, this pursuer is better than her husband, you can be negative, there are too many opportunities, such as a Wu Dalang's wife Pan Jinlian, even if she doesn't meet Ximenqing, as long as she meets a normal man, I'm afraid it will be inevitable to cheat, because there are too many men who are stronger than Wu Dalang, and Pan Jinlian looks good, and there will be no fewer suitors. ”

"The two were originally mismatched, Wu Dalang was a seller of cooking cakes, and honestly looking for an ugly woman, he might not end up dying so miserably, and he might be in love for a lifetime. Yang Ling Aya said.

"Then Chen Shimei and Qin Xianglian may not be a mismatch, in case Qin Xianglian's appearance is also ugly, Chen Shimei has nothing to blame for changing her mind? Lingyun said.

Yang Lingya smiled and said: "The meaning of these words is not profound, it seems to be to express your heart, quick, are you falling in love with the yellow flower girl again? Or do you regret marrying Xuezhu so early when you see the Oiran lady?"

Ling Yun smiled bitterly: "I've been with you for a long time, I have nothing to do with the top brand of the Ten Thousand Immortal Tower." ”

"You're not going to the auction of Naming's redemption?" Yang Lingya asked.

Ling Yun hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go and see the lively headquarter, this kind of scene is also rare." ”

Then see if the price is right, if you can afford it, you will buy the Oiran back, and enjoy the blowing and singing of the top brand of Wanxian Building. "Yang Lingya is still young, and she only thinks that playing and singing refers to silk string music, and she doesn't know that there is another person in the Qinglou.

Ling Yun heard that she was speechless, reached out and blocked her mouth, and said, "Then I will sew it up for you." ”

Yang Lingya stared at her big eyes, grinned, pretended to be afraid, covered her mouth, and said no more.

Ziruo had been sitting upstairs, listening intently to the conversation between the two, smiling from time to time, but she was always embarrassed to go downstairs to meet Ling Yun.
