Chapter 163: Listen to His Words Backwards
Lin Wan'er has been very depressed recently, since she learned that there were flaws in "The Story of Stones", she didn't eat well, slept well, didn't dream sweetly at night, woke up early in the morning, and stared at the beams in a daze. She told Zhao Gan about this matter, Zhao Gan gnawed on the sweet potato, and said vaguely: "I already knew about this matter, in fact, there are other inappropriate places in "The Story of Stones", you listen to me and give you ......"
Lin Wan'er stood up suddenly, and stuffed a whole sweet potato that had just been peeled into Zhao Gan's mouth, she already knew that "The Story of Stones" had a lot of flaws, and Zhao Gan even wanted to say, isn't this intentionally blocking people?
The sweet potato was so big that Zhao Qian couldn't breathe, and he hammered his chest three times before he spit out the sweet potato: "If you don't want me to say it, just make a sound, you give me a stuff, and almost destroy the flower with your hot hand, and destroy my delicate little flower that blooms with a bag." ”
Lin Wan'er was too lazy to take care of him, pinched the sweet potatoes in a circle on the small charcoal stove, there was no ripe ventilation, although the cool weather in the west had warmed up, but Lin Wan'er did not let Cordyceps withdraw the small charcoal stove, the purpose was to roast the sweet potatoes, roast them until they were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and eat a piece of them beautifully, and they were above the delicacies of the mountains and seas.
She sighed, held her chin with one hand, and was stunned, and suddenly, she stretched out her little fist and slammed the table, and swore that "No, I will correct all the flaws in it one by one from writing "The Stone Record". ”
"Wan'er, listen to me tell you, there is no perfect thing in this world, there must be flaws to show beauty, "The Stone Record" is a little flawed, maybe Mr. Cao did it on purpose. What he wants to express is 'full of absurd words, a handful of bitter tears', and he is no longer attached. Wan'er, don't worry about it anymore. ”
"No, even if I have flaws, "The Stone Record" can't be flawed." Lin Wan'er said categorically, she glanced at Zhao Gan, who was gnawing sweet potatoes all over her face, and hated him a little, "There are some things you don't understand, just know how to eat." Eat it to death! ”
Zhao Qian swallowed the last mouthful of sweet potatoes very innocently, reached out and went to the small charcoal stove to get it, thinking that if he ate it to death, he would really be the first person in the world.
Lin Wan'er still wanted to bury him for a sentence or two. Seeing his lazy appearance, he didn't even have the urge to scold in his heart, picked up a pale yellow coat, and picked up pen, ink and paper. Hurriedly ran out.
"Wan'er. Where are you going? ”
"I'll go to Sister Tuo's and find that chess master to revise the inappropriateness of "The Story of Stones" together, you can eat slowly. By the way, close the door for me when you leave, and don't let the puppies and kittens harm my sweet potatoes. Lin Wan'er had already run away, but her voice came back intermittently.
Zhao Qian shook his head, she had never seen Wan'er so concerned about one thing, it seemed that the weight of this "Stone Record" in her heart was not low.
Lin Wan'er, who was holding pen, ink and paper, rushed to Zheng Tuo's room. I didn't knock on the door, I just pushed the door in. When she saw that Zheng Tuo was embroidering, she was inexplicably nervous, Sister Fei Tuo still wanted revenge in her heart, and she wanted to toss a giant splendor?
Zheng Tuo seemed to know what Lin Wan'er was thinking, and explained: "Wan'er come in, Uncle Xiaolin's clothes from Dongying are torn, and I am helping him sew them, and I want to embroider black and white chess pieces on the broken places, so that it won't be so ugly." ”
Kobayashi Hikaru likes the old and likes the old, and he doesn't care about the appearance of clothes, he can wear them if they are torn and mended, even if they are patches and patches, he doesn't care, as long as they are clean. And Sakata Gintoki is just the opposite, he doesn't like to be clean, but he is very particular about dressing, he can go on the street in brocade clothes, and he will never be coarse in linen, according to his words, "People walk in the rivers and lakes, and the argument is a face." ”
Lin Wan'er nodded, put down the pen, ink and paper, and only after asking did she know that Kobayashi Guangyi went to play chess with Xu Yunfeng, since Xu Yunfeng invited Kobayashi Guang to play chess, Kobayashi Guangyi must arrive every day, when playing chess, he will make vicious moves, and he will be ruthless, and he will not give Xu Yunfeng a way out.
Zheng Tuo has only seen one thing that Kobayashi Koichi attaches so much importance to, that is, in Dongying, with the protection of Kobayashi Koichi and Sakata Gintoki, Tokugawa Hidejo has no way to take Zheng Tuo, so as a general, he ordered ten super first-class masters in Dongying to play against Kobayashi Koyi at the same time, and Uncle Kobayashi at that time was so solemn, bathing and changing clothes, and recuperating.
It can be seen from this that Kobayashi Koichi has some indescribable enthusiasm for suppressing Xu Yunfeng on the chessboard, and the sentence "His Royal Highness has superb chess skills, and the old man admires" contains irony and secret joy, but the expression he presents is too serious, and Xu Yunfeng can't see the irony and secret joy.
And Sakata Gintoki went to "hoe the strong and help the weak". Lin Wan'er didn't understand what Zheng Tuo's "hoeing the strong and helping the weak" meant, Zheng Tuo felt ashamed, his uncle went to drink flower wine, and it always made people feel disrespectful to the old when it was passed out, no matter how Sakata Gintoki beautified his behavior of "drinking flower wine", and used all kinds of reasons to excuse himself, he couldn't eliminate the meaning of the thing itself.
Zheng Tuo couldn't resist Lin Wan'er's repeated inquiries that broke the sand pot and asked, and explained: "When Uncle Sakata was in Dongying, he loved to hoe the strong and help the weak, and he was uneven. Her voice grew quieter and more embarrassed.
At this time, Sakata Gintoki, who was hiding and seeking in a black scarf in Yihong Courtyard, couldn't help but sneeze twice, reached out and rubbed his nose, and muttered: "Who is talking about me behind my back?" ”
Lin Wan'er's first impression of Sakata Gintoki was better than Kobayashi Koichi, and she had the intention to befriend Sakata Gintoki, but then she was relieved, and her senses immediately reversed, and she felt that Kobayashi Koichi was obviously better than Sakata Gintoki, if she befriended Sakata Gintoki, she would always have an unpleasant feeling of "embarrassed and treacherous", but if she had more contact with Kobayashi Koichi, she felt that her self-cultivation had improved, and she really responded to the old saying - those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black.
Zheng Tuo changed the topic and asked Lin Wan'er about the purpose of her visit.
Lin Wan'er explained the purpose of her visit, but Kobayashi Guangyi was not there, and without him beside him, revising "The Story of Stones" became empty talk.
Zheng Tuo said with a smile: "Although Uncle Xiaolin is not here, he told me some places and methods for modification. Maybe I can help. ”
"Really?!" Lin Wan'er was pleasantly surprised.
Taking out the relationship diagram of "The Stone Record" drawn by Kobayashi Koichi, Zheng Tuo pointed to the inappropriateness depicted with a red pen in it, and said with a smile: "You can give it a try." But I always want to know where the story will go after "The Stone". ”
Lin Wan'er thought about it, and began to explain the direction of the story after "The Stone Record", from the initial writing of "The Stone Record" to the intermittent repair and supplement, Lin Wan'er wrote a total of forty chapters, and after "Shi Taijun's Two Banquets Grand View Garden, Golden Mandarin Duck Three Xuan Tooth Plate Order" is a disconnected stream. Without the following, how many people in the world have suffered.
Even later, Lin Wan'er worked hard for a while. It was only written in the ninety-seventh chapter, Lin Daiyu lost her fragrance and jade, and Jia Baoyu married Xue Baochai, which came to an abrupt end at an extremely high tide. Since then, "The Story of the Stone" has been regarded as no follow-up. But on that afternoon. Zheng Tuo completely heard the story of "The Story of the Stone", and in the midst of great joy and sorrow, he made a dreamlike dream of red mansions.
After listening to Lin Wan'er tell the story of "The Story of the Stone", Zheng Tuo had mixed feelings, and then looked at Lin Wan'er, and the admiration in her heart was three points more, she thought she knew Lin Wan'er very well, but it seemed that this girl still had many secrets that she didn't know. She began to dimly believe what Uncle Xiaolin once said - this "Stone Record" was written by the heavenly immortals under the guise of Lin Wan'er's hand.
Zheng Tuo clasped her hands, and she decided to eliminate the flaws in "The Story of Stones" one by one. In terms of details, the time for Lin Daiyu to enter Jiafu was postponed by five years, and Jia Baoyu's age was two years older than Lin Daiyu, not one year old at the beginning, and during these five years, Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu have always exchanged letters, which further implemented the "déjà vu" when the two met for the first time.
The two worked hard to draw a more intricate picture of the relationship that had been dense, but probably to sort out the relationship, modify the disadvantages caused by age, and after the revision was completed, Zheng Tuo wrote a sentence in the remaining blank space of the paper with a handsome small block - the state of existence and the process of destruction of human beauty, and summarized the entire "Stone Record" in one sentence. Lin Wan'er cut "The Stone Record" halfway, and later this relationship chart was handed down, and many people continued to write according to this sentence
The sun was setting, the sun was graying, and the sky was getting darker, Lin Wan'er stretched her waist, as if she had completed a big event, drinking tea and eating pastries with great satisfaction. Zheng Tuo was very tired, but she was also very happy, such a day without hurry and no psychological burden was what she always wanted to have.
She had lived like this for a time when she was a child, and then she was full of hatred for her life in a broken and strange land, and she felt that if she was happy and happy, it would be a great blasphemy against her dead father and mother, so she couldn't make herself better, she couldn't make herself happy.
But at this moment, she no longer wanted to hide the joy of rejecting life, and gently lit the oil lamp, filling the room with light, just like her mood.
Lin Wan'er handed Zheng Tuo a piece of purple potato cake and ate a piece by herself: "Sister Tuo, I used to see you frowning in Lanzhou, thinking that this person has a lot of bitterness in his heart, I came to Liangzhou to see you, I saw you smile but I knew that it was not sincere, the line of life and death in the splendid world seems to have made you open the knot in your heart, since Uncle Sakata and Uncle Xiaolin who beat you came, I found that your smile is more." I have something I want to ask, I don't know if to ask? ”
"Just ask." At this time, Zheng Tuo had nothing to hide and avoid, even if it involved Xu Yunfeng, she could accept it calmly.
Lin Wan'er thought for a while and asked, "Sister Tuo, now that the matter between you and Xu Yunfeng is no longer between the two of you, and it is difficult to break the barrier purely by relying on the two of you, I want to ask what attitude your two uncles have towards Xu Yunfeng?" ”
He matched Zheng Tuo and Xu Yunfeng actually has little to do with the latter, she just sometimes feels sorry for her sister Tuo, who has been lonely for so many years, and always needs to have her own person, unlike herself, although the life in Lanzhou is hard, but there are a few younger brothers around who are obedient or disobedient and naughty. She was wronged by Zheng Tuo and felt bitter in her heart.
Zheng Tuo smiled and did not evade: "Uncle Xiaolin has been playing chess with him recently, he is very serious and hardworking, this is rare, and Uncle Xiaolin can't beat people, so he is ready to suppress him on the chessboard, and he should be angry." But Uncle Xiaolin is honest and can't lie, every time he comes back from playing chess, he praises him very objectively, saying that this young man is good, but in fact, he can't wait to belittle him penniless, and then press him to the ground and beat him fat. ”
"As for Uncle Sakata's mouth, he has only one advantage, that is, there is no advantage in his body, he doesn't learn and has no skills, showing off his martial arts is just an appetizer on weekdays, bullying men and women, killing people and setting fires is his daily life, he walks with his head held high in the wind and rain on the road of defeat, in short, he is a disgusting kid who makes people look sick and bored to think about."
Lin Wan'er burst out laughing, worthy of being the Sword Saint who had learned the words of the Central Plains with the inhabitants of Ryukyu Island, and the words of the burying people were quite ancient, and they were catchy to read.
"However, I have lived with Uncle Kobayashi and Uncle Sakata for so many years, and I know the temperament of the two, Uncle Kobayashi's words must be believed, and I must believe them all, but Uncle Sakata's words are not only not believed, but also listen to them in reverse, the more I belittle him for nothing, the more it means that this person is not bad. So, on the whole, the two uncles have a good evaluation of him. ”
Lin Wan'er smiled, and felt more and more the cuteness of the two romantic characters in Dongying: "According to Sister Tuo, Xiaolin Qi Shengming praised, but actually didn't like Xu Yunfeng, Sakata Sword Saint was not good at words, but he actually liked Xu Yunfeng in his heart." ”
"That's pretty much it."
The two had a chat without a match, Xiao Lin Guangyi stepped back to Zheng Tuo's room in the night, and when he saw that Lin Wan'er was also there, he bowed his head and said hello, Lin Wan'er was busy asking the chess saint to take a look at the results of the afternoon's revision.
Kobayashi Koichi, who has been serious all his life, is not sloppy, holding the relationship diagram of the revised version of "The Stone Record", and watching it carefully under the oil lamp, his heart is also constantly calculating and figuring.
In this gap, Sakata Gintoki, who was drunk and drunk, also entered the room with a long help of the night, and when he saw the three people in the room, he didn't bother, he sat down by himself, poured tea and sobered up, and a cup of tea was in his stomach, and he was suddenly refreshed and a little refreshed.
After Kobayashi Koichi finished reading the revised "Stone Story", he couldn't help but praise Lin Wan'er for her blue heart and ice and snow intelligence, so that "Stone Story" is not only more perfect, but also more reasonable in many ways.
Lin Wan'er's happy eyes narrowed into a slit, like a little fox who had just stolen candy.
Sakata Yinshi smiled and came up, thinking about currying favor with Lin Wan'er, borrowing that bicycle to go to Yihong Courtyard to play, the novelty thing can surprise the girls the most, and it is also second only to pulling out the mountains and spending money to show manliness: "Wan'er girl, tsk, I didn't realize that you are not only talented, but also sinking fish and geese, closing the moon and embarrassing flowers, beautiful and unbelievable." ”
Before the flattery was finished, Sakata Yinshi suddenly found that Lin Wan'er's face was not good, it was extremely cold, and it seemed that he would come forward to scratch people in the next moment, so he stopped his mouth inexplicably, drank tea obediently, and was puzzled in his heart, is there anyone who is unwilling to listen to flattery?
Obviously, he didn't know that Zheng Tuo had just told Lin Wan'er that Sakata Sword Saint's words were to be listened to in reverse. (To be continued.) )
