The hostess threw the tub with a panicked "oops", hurriedly stepped forward, bowed down and apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't see you coming, and your dress was spilled." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Chu Yunxi didn't have the habit of ignoring people, others apologized politely, and she naturally subconsciously said, "It's okay." ”

The hostess immediately enthusiastically pulled her into the house to remedy: "Come on, I'll wipe it when you enter the house." ”

Chu Yunxi wanted to refuse, but it was always indecent to wear a dripping dress on the street. She hesitated, and when she looked up at the courtyard of her house, she realized that it was a familiar place.

She followed the hostess into the courtyard, and looking around, she suddenly realized:

Yes, this is the courtyard where Yu Yu lived in seclusion.

As fate would have it, she was dragged here again after a long time.

Desolation and sentimentality entangled her whole body in an instant like a vine that emerged from the ground. Without waiting for the guidance of the hostess, she herself went into the room where she had recuperated from her wounds and sat down. The hostess did not seem to be dissatisfied with the casual guests of the guests, found a clean handkerchief, and squatted directly on the ground to wipe her dress and upper.

She was a little embarrassed to ask to do it herself, and the hostess graciously insisted on wiping the water she had splashed on her herself.

She was no longer reluctant, and sat quietly on the chair in front of the window, looking at the furnishings in the room that had not changed much, and remembered Xuan.

After she recovered her identity as the daughter of the Chu family, the first thing she thought of was naturally to repay her as a life-saving benefactor. Chu Yunxi is always like this, it is difficult to let go of the kindness of others, and if he can't repay the kindness, he will not be able to sleep and eat.

When she was ecstatic to greet her longing lover, she saw that she had indeed resumed her women's clothes, and her heart was like lightning and lightning, and the mountains shook and the tsunami shook her, and all thoughts were dashed in an instant.

Chu Yunxi was very apologetic and asked her to forgive her for concealing it at a critical moment of survival. And she just sat across from her, looking at her with stupid eyes, as if she had never known her. She earnestly begged her to enter the house, swearing that she would take care of her with the same zeal as her own sister. Her fervent apologies and requests went unanswered.

She kept muttering silently, making me think, making me think. So much so that Chu Yunxi really thought that she could figure it out, but love is not a reason, it is a feeling that cannot be deduced by logic and thinking, it is unreasonable.

So, the next day she disappeared without leaving any news, was it hate, despair, escape, or let go of obsession and welcome a new life? Chu Yunxi had no way of knowing, she only felt heartache that another person who was sincere to her had left her life, leaving her with only a barren courtyard and loneliness.

Her life seems to have many such sad moments. The feeling of pain is not the heart-wrenching pain when tearing your body, but a small wound that is difficult to heal as if it has been cut by time, pricking your heartstrings from time to time when you are in peace, and immersing you in its infinite sorrow all the time.

The hostess finished packing up her things and sat down next to her, still secretly distracted. She stared at her thoughtfully, and suddenly laughed softly: "By the way, girl, how can I see you so kind, we have met before." ”

Chu Yunxi was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at her, and saw that her hair was gray, her forehead and the corners of her eyes were full of wrinkles, and she looked like she was in her forties. Her cheeks were an unhealthy yellow, but she had plump hands that didn't match the age carved into her face.

"I don't know you." Chu Yunxi frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, he still had no impression of her.

She keenly grasped the low and flat nature of her voice, and said in surprise: "Oh, I remember, you are the little cousin of that handsome boy." ”

Chu Yunxi was confused and at a loss for her self-euphoria.

"Do you remember Red Maple Township?" She reminded.

Chu Yunxi was stunned for a long time, and vaguely remembered that she followed Shi Jiaheng back to Chang'an for the first time, and seemed to pass by a place called Hongfeng Township, and then ...... She was surprised: "Are you the daughter of the head of Hongfeng Township?" It's called Silver ......"

"Silver Spike." She said excitedly.

Chu Yunxi pointed to the white hair on the top of her head and said in shock: "It's actually you?!" Why are you so old and your hair is gray. ”

Silver Spike smiled, revealing two rows of yellowed teeth. Although the appearance is no longer the charm of youth, a pair of fox-like eyes still flash with glamorous brilliance from time to time.

She poured a glass of white water and gave her a glass, and then she took out a wine jar from under the table, gave herself a glass of rice wine she brewed, sat down and sighed, "It's a long story, you can sit down." Did I meet an acquaintance, I don't know anyone here, the neighbors around me are all deep in the compound, no one speaks all day long, and my husband is dumb and deaf. ”

Chu Yunxi's memory of Yinsui has been blurred, and he only roughly remembers that she is a very amorous woman, a widow with a son, and likes to seduce young sons who come and go to stay overnight, so she has a very bad impression of her, and when she heard her mention the word husband again, she asked with some contempt: "Have you remarried?" ”

Yinsui probably heard the contempt in her tone, and deliberately teased her: "Yes, I have remarried, why haven't you married your cousin?" ”

Compared with a veteran like her, Chu Yunxi's face was too thin, and when she was red, she covered her face with a red glow, and lowered her voice and said, "What nonsense are you talking about." ”

Yinsui laughed calmly, squeezed his eyebrows and said, "What's so embarrassing about this." Your cousin has a deep affection for you, you should be happy, a woman can meet such a man in her life, and it is worth dying 10,000 times, you are really blessed. I still remember the way he defended your anger and really loved you to the core. ”

Chu Yunxi is used to being serious, and it's not that he can't stand the jokes, but the bottom line is that the matter of reputation must not be talked about. Her joke was a great insult to her. She was already quite sensitive to this matter because of the rumors, and Yin Suifei said it so explicitly, which made her ashamed and indignant, staring at a pair of watery eyes, showing a rare fierce expression: "I'm really crazy to follow you into the house." He and I have a brother and sister relationship, and if you don't know how to be ashamed, you just use foul language to frame others. ”

Yinsui only treated her young lady Jiaowei as if she was angry with a cat, and said with a smile: "You ladies must be stupid to read "The Fierce Girl", "The Female Commandment" or something, and you are serious all day long, and it is not interesting at all. You are wishful thinking to treat others as your brother, but people want to be husband and wife with you, the man I have seen in Yinsui has a car bucket, if you can't even see a man's eyes adoring a woman, that's a joke. ”

"Shut up, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll be rude to you." She was so confused that the threatening words that rushed out of her mouth without thinking were childish and stubborn.

Yinsui couldn't help but laugh, and her heart was everyone's best girl, but a few jokes made her almost turn her face angrily. If in the countryside, the married lady teases the little girls who have not yet come out of the cabinet, making them red-faced, at most they can only smack a few words, or make a few gestures, and make a joke. Unexpectedly, her willow eyebrows were upside down, her eyes burst out with a cold light, she held the cup tightly in her hand, and she had a look of deep hatred and hatred for her.

She was afraid that the other party would not be teased, and she would throw a cup and hurt people in a fit of anger, so she said happily: "Yo, I'm angry, I'm anxious." Okay, I don't say that others say it, I mean it well, and others don't know what to think. ”

"You people are simply disgusting, and you spend your days making fun of people." Chu Yunxi was really not light by her ambiguous and provocative tone, both embarrassed and angry, losing her usual composure, but in her panic, she had a bit of girl's coquettishness.

Yinsui was able to grasp the emotional changes between her every sentence in detail, and saw her annoyed and angry, and her heart and mouth were inconsistent, and she became more and more proud: "It seems that I am unfortunate to be right, and some people are talking about you or not." What's this, the love of men and women is a happy event, why should you be afraid of it like a tiger. ”

"We didn't speculate, but we took our leave." Chu Yunxi couldn't be entangled, and he went for the best plan.

Outside, the sound of horse-drawn carriages was heard in the street.

"Shh Yin Sui had changed her tone to a laughing and playful look, and suddenly silenced nervously, but Chu Yunxi ignored her and continued to walk into the courtyard.

Silver Spike hurriedly chased out with an "oops". Chu Yunxi turned a blind eye to her. She tugged at her sleeve and whispered, "You heard someone coming from the other side, it's better for you to wait for their carriage to pass and then go out, so that they can see it, but it's not as good as yours." ”

Chu Yunxi shook off her hand and was angry: "When will someone from the other side me?" ”

Yinsui begged anxiously: "It's not your business, but it's our business." You are a young lady from a big family, and you are not afraid, but our husband and wife are just ordinary people, and we can't afford to offend. ”

Chu Yunxi looked at her with a little fear in her expression, not like she was pretending, and said strangely: "Who is here?" ”

"I don't know, anyway, it's the son of a rich family. We've never seen anything we wear, what we bring, we haven't seen before. Even the subordinates are more aura than ordinary people. And the son of that family often takes different beautiful women in and out. ”

The silver spike god whispered mysteriously, and then he had no intention of saying a shocking news: "They are all daughters of nobles with a lot of background." I have been with a few of his family's little guys for a while, and I heard that the most popular among his sons is Miss Yi of Shandong Meng's family, who is actually a descendant of a saint. ”

Chu Yunxi immediately decided that she was spreading rumors and nonsense, and said angrily: "Meng Li? You are talking nonsense again and ruining people's reputation. Miss Meng is dignified and upright, full of poetry and books, and will never do such an obscene thing. ”

Yinsui heard her say the other party's name in one mouthful, and knew that she was from a good background. Hearing that she didn't believe it, he pulled her to the door and squatted, and the two looked out at the crack in the door, and whispered: "You know her, it seems that you are not an ordinary person." I'll take you to see it, seeing is believing, maybe you'll still recognize them. ”

Chu Yunxi wanted to break free of her hand and push the door out, but she held on to her. The sound of wheels is getting closer.

Silver Spike looked intently out of the crack in the door. Chu Yunxi didn't dare to move too much to let the people outside the door know that they were peeping, so she glanced angrily at the crack in the door, wanting to expose her lies with facts.

Two carriages were parked at the door, and a tall man in a cloak came up from one of them. He still had a hat on his head in the heat and couldn't see his face clearly, and then he cautiously got into another carriage. The curtains were rolled up, revealing the face of a beautiful young woman, who was beautifully dressed and wore a hood on her head, the curtain of which was turned up. The man put his arm around her waist, jumped into the car, and kissed her on the cheek, and the two of them laughed so unscrupulously.

Chu Yunxi was stunned and shouted, "Princess Jinbo? ”

Silver Spike was startled, and hurriedly covered her mouth, trying to pull her into the house.

Chu Yunxi, who originally glanced at it reluctantly, couldn't pull it away at this time, she picked it up on the crack of the door, looked at it carefully several times, and kept muffling in the palm of Yinsui's hand: "Is it really Princess Jinbo?" ”

The carriage outside the door walked away, and Yinsui dragged the stunned Chu Yunxi into the house, and she complained while closing the door: You should also be quiet, now you believe it. ”

Then she laughed and said, "That woman is actually a princess?" You're not bluffing me, are you? I thought that the daughters of the emperor's family were innocent and noble fairies, and they dared to have fornications with men, and the women in the kiln sold their flesh and skin in order to live, what do you say they are for, it is better to Sister Kiln. ”

Chu Yunxi hadn't recovered from the shock yet, and said in disbelief: "Princess Jinbo has not yet been married, and she has always been a model for the noble ladies and princesses in the palace. She also taught me in public a few days ago, and I have been guilty and blamed myself for a long time, how could they do such a shameless thing. ”

The appearance of Princess Jin Bo greatly increased the credibility of Yinsui, and she gradually gave up her vigilance against her, and asked in annoyance: "I don't understand the way of the world more and more, what is true and what is false?" "The words of the sages, the education of virtue, I have read all these years of books, are those golden rules that have been deeply rooted in my mind since I was a child some nonsense?"

Yinsui snorted coldly, and even said loudly in a cynical and indignant tone: "That's why I said that those who pretend to be noble all day long and accuse others of being lowly and shameless don't know what is going on behind their backs, those princesses and nobles are pure and incomparable on the surface, but in their bones they are also debauched and lewd and do not abide by women's morals, and they have to teach others with a shy face." Because of these people's gossip, they toss themselves to be stupid, and tribulation is true, and it takes a long time to see people's hearts. You think you're surrounded by chaste women. You don't know that at that time, our family was in trouble, and those women who usually advertised their loyalty were willing to be slaves and maids for other men just to get a bite to eat. You and your cousin are respectfully courteous, even if they are secretly in love, what is there to blame, then there are many poems in the "Book of Songs" that men and women love, and they have been passed down through the ages, even Mencius said that the nature of people who eat color is also. Could it be that you are not human, and they are not human? ”

Chu Yunxi disagreed, and retorted: "But I don't understand, how painful love is, why do you want to do it knowing that you can't do it, isn't it stupid?" Why are people in the world so stupid that they dare not cut off their love threads. I won't live too long, and if I die, I'm clean, and I don't need to be contaminated with this red dust. ”

The two actually argued about this matter, and Yinsui then retorted: "It's because people don't live long that they need to be happy in time." You're still a girl, you don't understand it at all. Love is like poisoned wine, it is pain, and it is a poison that pierces the intestines. But its short-term happiness is worth the efforts of countless stupid men and women. ”

Chu Yunxi stubbornly shook his head: "I don't understand." ”

Yinsui smiled evilly, deliberately provoking her, "Do you dare to try?" ”

"Nope." Chu Yunxi replied very simply, "As soon as my father's mourning period is over, I will say goodbye to my family and return to Shunan to be lonely until I grow old." ”

Yinsui looked at her, and said earnestly as an elder teaching a junior: "You think that those men and women who are hurt by love have nothing but regret in their hearts. I'm a person from the past, let me tell you, we never regret it, if we can choose again, we are willing to be hurt again, it is better to be an ignorant and unconscious good wife and mother like a wood all our lives, and to spend a lifetime with a man we don't love. I have had countless guests, and I am all due to a man I once loved, but I have no regrets and nothing to regret. It's my own doing, my own choice. ”

Chu Yunxi ruthlessly attacked her selfish view of love: "Don't you still admit that this is all the retribution for your adultery and adultery?" ”

"Retribution?" Yin Sui sneered, sonorous and powerful, and said without shame, "Just ask if there are few people who do evil in this world, and a few more have suffered retribution." Take my rival family as an example, it was he who took the initiative to provoke me in person, I was not thin on him, I took out all the furniture at home to help him go to Beijing to take the exam, he was sent to our county by high school to be the county magistrate, he was afraid that the affairs of the two of us would be shaken out and ruin his reputation, and the first thing he did when he took office was to beat my father to death in court on the charge of embezzling money for the repair of the embankment. After my parents died, he still had some affection for me and didn't kill me right away. I slept with the head of the cell, and slept with the cell, until I got out of the prison, and that little slut in Cuihuan heard that our family was in trouble, so he actually fled, and other relatives also broke off their relationship with us, and my son starved to death at home, and I had nowhere to go, so I went to the kiln to sell myself. When I met this deaf man who said he wanted to marry me, I was also tired, so I followed him. Don't look at his appearance, he's just a carpenter, and he's quite capable. I still have a store in Chang'an, so I have a home. You see, the hair that has been tortured all these years has also turned gray, and people are more than twenty years old. ”

"Aren't you guilty of the parents and sons you killed?" Chu Yunxi said indignantly.

"My parents and son were killed by that bastard, not me. I am sincere to him, is it wrong for me to help him enter Beijing to take the exam? ”

Compared with Bo Qinglang's ruthlessness and unrighteousness, Yinsui is also a victim after all. Chu Yunxi was forced to be a little defeated by her sharp words, and she felt the meanness of the world in her tragic experience, and sighed weakly: "Don't you regret it?"

"I don't regret it, even if I fall to this point, whether he deceives me, whether it's sincere, at least I've been happy and lived in vain." But the silver spike is still determined.

"If I were you, you wouldn't be alive." Chu Yunxi came out of the divine way.

Yinsui stood up straight, and said in a loud voice with a posture of standing up to the sky and the earth, worthy of his heart: "You don't know how much we can live as cheap as grass. Who has no parents and brothers, who has not been born, old, sick and dead, but we don't have the kung fu to grieve the spring and the autumn. If someone in the family dies of a parent, we still have to blow and do happy events, or we still have to continue to cultivate the fields, not because we don't have a heart and won't be in pain, but because we want to live. If there is no one to work, there will be no food if no one works. You young ladies can keep it for three or five years in order to fulfill your filial piety, but we can't, no one will support us. You can be angry and not marry, and you will live your whole life, and you will not starve to death, but we have no choice, if you don't marry, you will have no food, and you will die. So love is a luxury for a peasant girl, and I can enjoy it, this is a blessing from God, you know? ”

After listening to Yin Sui's words, Chu Yunxi was a little speechless, dizzy for a while, and couldn't distinguish between morning and dusk.
