Chapter 178: Private Meeting
Old Madam Shang turned to Mrs. Huang and Mrs. Gu, who had a somewhat sneering expression, and said, "Sister Yan is not sensible, and you can't spoil her." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Mrs. Huang and Mrs. Gu have both seen this play, so they naturally know that although there is a word "coffin" in the name of this play, there is no taboo at all when it is staged on stage. It's just that I couldn't argue with Mrs. Shang, so I had to shut up and stop talking.
There are only a few screens between the men and the women, and the movement here and there can be heard clearly. Just when the female ancestor took the fold and asked Shang Wanyan to focus on it, someone on the other side of the screen suddenly spoke: "This Shizi thinks that "The Big Split Coffin" is very good, and Zhuang Zhou's story is likable no matter how it is played. ”
It was actually King Ling who was speaking for Shang Wanyan!
Shang Wanyan and Jin Shu looked at each other, with disbelief in their eyes, Chang Xie had reminded her to be careful of Han Huaijin before, how could Han Huaijin stand up for her in front of so many people!
Shang Wanyi subconsciously turned her head to look at Shang Wanyi again, only to see that Shang Wanyi's eyes were also shocked, the hands under the table were tightly twisted in their sleeves, and they turned their heads to look at Shang Wanyi's gaze mixed with anger.
Before Mrs. Shang could speak, Shang Zhizhang had already spoken: "Since everyone likes it, let's order a big coffin!" ”
Shang Zhizhang spoke, and Mrs. Shang naturally wouldn't give him face in front of so many people, so she immediately relented and ordered a "Big Split Coffin".
The excerpts of the play continued to pass down, Shang Wanyi, Shang Wanyi, Shang Wanwan and others ordered what plays respectively, and Shang Wanyan had no heart to pay attention to it. Her mind also fell on Chang Xie and Ling Wang Shizi, in Shang Wanyan's opinion, Ling Wang Shizi was a very indifferent person, in the last life, except for Shang Wanyi is his weakness, he could be ruthless to anyone. It can be seen from the fact that the first thing he did after taking the throne was to ask for the life of his nominal brother-in-law Lu Zhanchen.
Such a Han Huaijin, even if he really thinks that "The Big Split Coffin" is good-looking, he will not say it at this time to relieve Shang Wanyan.
Shang Wanyan rolled up her sleeves, feeling a little confused. Until the stage babbled and sang "The liver and intestines are broken, and the heart is painful and gally." The sun and the moon are merciless, the sky and the earth are dark, and Mr. Sad and Earnest is gone. I came back to my senses.
"The Great Split Coffin" is adapted from "Zhuangzi Xiu Drum Pot into a Avenue", which tells the story of Zhuang Zhou seeing a widow fan the soil on her deceased husband's grave every day, and remarrying when the soil is dry. Zhuang Zhou therefore went home to test his wife Tian, died of pseudo-illness, became a burial, transformed into the king and grandson of Chu, and brought a family to the house. Tian saw Wang Sun, suddenly fell in love, and planned to marry him, and Wang Sun suddenly suffered from a headache in the cave room, saying that the brain and marrow of the dead man could be treated. Tian was splitting the coffin to take Zhuang Zhou's brain, and Zhuang Zhou suddenly jumped up and scolded Tian. Tian committed suicide in shame, and Zhuang Zhou abandoned his home and left.
If other little ladies listened to Han Lang's words, they might feel inexplicable when they heard this play, but Shang Wanyan understood. Han Lang is telling her to be decisive, if Zhuangzi Hugh blindly endures, how can she become a great road!
After comprehending Han Lang's persuasion, Shang Wanyan felt a little funny, the more she came into contact with her, the more she felt that Han Lang was very different from the rumors. It's probably because I don't think of myself as a good person in my heart, so the way I mention others is so funny. If she had been a little more stupid and had not grasped his painstaking efforts, would she have wasted her good intentions.
Shang Wanyan remembered what Jinshu said in the afternoon that Han Lang did a better job than Changxie, and she thought it was true.
In addition to her brother and Jinshu, Han Lang is about the first person who is really good for her.
After the dinner, everyone cleaned up the table by the people, moved to the small pear blossom wooden table in front of them to sit and watch the play, the small table was placed with straw cakes, jujube paste yam cakes, two-color water chestnut cakes, crab roe cakes and other colorful snacks, as well as grapes, peaches, snow pears, lychees, longans and other fresh fruits.
After Shang Wanyan ate two lychees, she found that Shang Wanyi didn't know when she was leaving, and Shang Wanwan and Qin Wanzheng said goodbye and wanted to go back to their yard. Shang Wanwan thought about it, and after Shang Wanwan and Qin Wan walked for a while, she told Old Madam Shang that she was not feeling well and wanted to go back to the Spring Courtyard.
Mrs. Shang watched the play and entered Hong Kong, so she naturally didn't care about her, waved her hand and let her go.
The weather today is not clear, there are no stars or moons in the sky, and when I walk out of the garden, it is pitch black, and I can't see the road clearly. Fortunately, Shuhe was a safe one, guessing that Shang Wanyan was going back to the yard at this time, so he took a lantern and waited at the intersection.
Shuhe played the lantern, and Jinshu took Shang Wanyan's hand and walked in the direction of Shuchun Temple. There are several locust trees and elm trees planted here, and the lights on the stage are no longer visible, but the babbling singing and the sound of pulling the erhu and beating the small gong seem to be close to the ears.
Jinshu smiled and teased Shuhe: "Why are you standing here waiting?" It's all mosquitoes, you should go to the garden and wait, not to mention the mosquito repellent grass, you can watch a child's play for a while. ”
As soon as he said this, Shuhe felt a little aggrieved: "When I go back, Miss can get a box of cool ointment for the maid, the maid's neck and arms are covered with mosquito bites, but it's itchy!" ”
Shang Wanyan also asked, "Why don't you go over and wait?" ”
Shuhe looked around, and the people went to the garden to watch the play, but there were no people around, so he lowered his voice and said, "The maid wants to go to the garden and wait, but the maid doesn't dare." Miss, I'll tell you when I get back to the room. ”
Shang Wanyan didn't speak, but she understood in her heart that Shu He had bumped into something.
Shang Zhizhang's ninth birthday banquet, although only the relatives of the Shang family came to the banquet, but there were a lot of people who came and went, and they were preparing for drills and setting up a stage, and the house was in chaos today! If it's messy, something will happen, and I don't know what Shuhe bumped into.
After returning to Shuchun Courtyard and entering the house, Jinshu immediately closed the doors and windows, and then stood outside the door in person to look out for Shang Wanyan and Shuhe.
Shuhe whispered: "The maid saw the second lady and the prince. ”
Shang Wanyan's expression suddenly became solemn.
Shuhe said: "Did Sister Jinshu find Song Xia to go to the flower hall this afternoon to inquire about the news of the prince?" At the dinner, Song Xia came to Shuchun Courtyard to look for Sister Jinshu, but she didn't find anyone, so she told her maid about it, saying that for an afternoon, the prince was funny in front of Mrs. Gu and Aunt Gu, and the second lady was also accompanied. The maids and mothers-in-law all said that the prince had taken a fancy to the second lady of our family. ”
"The maid is a little unbelieving, the second lady has just returned from the family temple for a long time, why was she taken a fancy to the prince!" Shuhe said with a look of fear, "Just now, the maid saw that the time was not early, and it was dark outside, so I took the lantern and wanted to go over to find the young lady." This road is what the maid is used to walking on weekdays, and when she first went there, she listened to the sound of the stage all the way, and she didn't light the lantern. ”
As soon as he walked into the garden, he saw two people standing under the acacia tree. It was already dark, and I couldn't tell who it was, but one of them suddenly sighed and shouted, 'Shizi Ye', and the voice was the second lady. As soon as the maid was afraid, the footsteps became heavier, and for fear of being discovered, the maid raised her feet and ran, turned a few paths and threw them off, and then stood at the garden gate, lit a lantern, and pretended to be there waiting for the young lady. ”
Shang Wanyan turned her head and saw that Shu He's face was a little pale, obviously frightened. Then he said: "It's okay, they didn't catch you, so we can't do anything about it." ”
Shuhe breathed a sigh of relief.
Shang Wanyan called Jinshu in, found ointment for Shuhe to wipe the mosquito bites, and then asked Jinshu to call someone to fetch water to wash.
Alone, he thinks about things crookedly on the soft collapse.
Although Han Huaijin's character is not glorious, he has his own principles in some aspects. For example, he doesn't plan to give a little lady a name, even if he sticks it upside down, he won't care about it.
Now that he is like Shang Wanyi, he is obviously determined that he has married Shang Wanyi.
Obviously, Shang Wanyi had just come back from the family temple, and the two of them hadn't spoken before that, so why did they look at each other?
What does it mean that he speaks for himself when he orders a play? (To be continued.) )
