Changsheng looked at Sima Luming and wanted to ask what he meant, but Jiang Qu didn't wait for anyone to speak, and dragged her to Qichenguan, Sima Luming frowned but could only follow. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 There were many peeking disciples standing in front of the gate, Jiang Qu didn't want to squeeze it, so he patted the shoulder of the senior sister who was blocking in front of him, squinted his peach blossom eyes and said with a smile, "Senior sister, can you let me see it too?" ”

The senior sister turned around and saw Jiang Qu and Sima Luming, her cheeks were flushed, and she moved her position shyly, and Jiang Qu relied on her invincible ability in the crowd of women to pull Changsheng to stand near the door under the gaze of other fellow junior brothers.

There were all the wonderful masters inside, and they knew that they were peeking, but they didn't say anything. Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, Master Shen Ling was not there.

The man looked sad and wore a white belt around his waist, it should be that there was something in the family, "This thing can no longer be left in my house, I threw it into the fire, but it is intact, I want to throw it away, and I am afraid that it will be picked up by someone who does not know, so I have to bother to say for a long time." ”

The attendant around him stepped forward with a wolf pen in his hand to hand over the brush to the people. The attendant looked at the pen in his hand, revealing a flash of greed. Zhong Miao stretched out his hand to take it, and the attendant's hand shook suddenly, and the pen fell to the ground, rolling and rolling all the way to the door.

The senior brother next to him felt bored and muttered, "Don't you say what kind of treasure it is, how can it be a pen." ”

The attendant hurriedly came over to pick it up, and Changsheng kindly helped him pick up the pen. The attendant thanked her and hurriedly took the pen.

Sima Lu said, "Senior sister, go back." The senior brothers and sisters around him thought they could see some treasures, but they began to disperse in disappointment.

Changsheng responded, and seemed to frown when he saw Zhong Miao take the pen.

When she was not there, Fu Tan and Sima Luming relied on those side dishes to eat, Sima Luming was fine, but Fu Yan was fine, but Fu Yan was bitter every day.

"Girl, I haven't seen you for a month, and your eyes seem to be bigger." After saying this, he drove her to the kitchen.

During the meal, Fu Yan had a great appetite, and ate four bowls of rice in a row, and after eating, she asked Changsheng to fry a plate of peanuts for her and eat it with wine. Changsheng persuaded, "Master, you drink less. ”

Fu Yan's nose was red from drinking, and he waved his hand to let them go to sleep, saying that he would teach Taoism again tomorrow morning. Changsheng simply cleaned up his room, Fu Yan is a person who would rather lie on the dust than take a broom and a rag, it seems that Sima Luming has been doing the cleaning inside and outside the house alone in the past month.

She thought that she would have to be busy tomorrow, and if the weather was fine, she would have to dry some vegetables again. It's time to go to bed early, so I lie back on my familiar bed and close my eyes to rest.

When I opened my eyes again, I was standing on an empty street, and it should have been just before the sun went down, and it was not very dark. Gu Changsheng was inexplicable how he was in this place, and after thinking about it, he thought of a possibility, and it was estimated that he was dreaming again.

The street was very deserted, and I saw a scholar cleaning up his calligraphy and painting stall. He carefully rolled up the calligraphy and paintings and put them into a bamboo basket, picked up a broken brush and looked at it for a long time, regretfully threw away this tool of livelihood, and said to himself with a bitter face, "I have to go to the study to buy a pen." ”

The street was deserted and quiet, and the sound of a bell behind him was particularly crisp and loud. She turned her head and saw someone ringing the bell, throwing paper money to clear the way.

I don't know which big family came out of the funeral, and the servant carried a good Nanmu coffin. It wasn't until the man who opened the way glared at her that she realized that she was standing in the middle of the road, blocking the way.

Changsheng apologized and moved to the side of the road, but he didn't pay attention and stepped on the foot of the scholar who was about to rush home, the scholar jumped up holding his foot, and Changsheng continued, "I'm sorry." "I don't understand why I have to apologize to someone in my dream.

The scholar didn't bother with her, squatted down and rubbed his feet for a while.

The funeral procession continued, all dressed in white sackcloth and white cloth. Behind the coffin were boxes and boxes of things that the deceased loved to use for burial.

Changsheng watched them walk away, thinking in his heart that this dream actually dreamed of a funeral, which was a little unlucky.

The scholar next to him sighed, picked up a brush on the ground, Changsheng felt that the pen was very similar to the one given to Zhongmiao by the staff today, but then he thought about it, as if all the brushes also looked similar.

The scholar felt that the wolf pen should have been accidentally lost by the funeral team just now, and he wanted to chase after him when he picked up the pen, but the funeral team had already gone away.

He had to put the pen away first, thinking that he would inquire about it tomorrow to see who and whose family's things were. Since there are so many funeral goods, if you want to be rich or expensive, just ask which big family in the city has a white affair. The scholar looked at Changsheng and kindly reminded, "It's so late, the girl should hurry home." ”

Changsheng smiled helplessly, she didn't know how long this dream would last.

Seeing that she didn't move, the scholar said, "It's all this hour, and if you don't go back, your parents will have to worry." ”

"My family isn't here."

"You're an out-of-tlander?" He looked behind her, and when he saw her, he was alone, "Is there nowhere to go?" There is an inn around the corner where you can stay. "The scholar saw that Gu Changsheng didn't speak, but he just thought that there was something unspeakable, maybe he didn't have Qi Yinliang on his body?" The humble house is nearby, and if the girl doesn't dislike it, she can go to my place and sit down. My name is Feng Lianzheng, and everyone in this neighborhood knows me. He gave his name because he was afraid that the girl would worry that he was a bad person.

If she hadn't woken up, she would probably have been wandering the streets, and even if she knew it was in a dream, she didn't really want to stay where she couldn't see her fingers. "Then bother."

Feng Lianzheng brought her home, where he had elderly parents and a younger sister who had just turned sixteen. Hearing Feng Lianzheng say that she was alone, he simply asked her name, and took out the dishes and chopsticks to entertain her for dinner.

Changsheng is not hungry at all, but this Feng's father and Feng's mother are very hospitable, and she doesn't know how to refuse casually and pretend to take a few bites of rice, anyway, in a dream, there is no hunger and no fullness.

The Feng family has been sharecroppers for several generations and is illiterate. A few years ago, a staff member surnamed Du opened a school in the city, and poor children in the neighborhood could send it there as long as they wanted to read and write. Feng's father thought that it was a good thing for his children to know how to read, so he let Feng Lianzheng go to school.

Feng Lianzheng was also angry, and a few years later, he was a showman, Feng's father felt that the lintel was glorious, and under high hopes, he didn't want his son to follow his old path and become a tenant farmer, so he was not allowed to go to the field again, and only let him concentrate on studying hard at home to make a name for himself.

And Feng is honest and filial, and he can't bear to put this work of supporting his family on his old father, so he will go to the street every few days to set up a small stall for people to write family letters and sell some calligraphy and paintings to supplement the family.

Feng's mother added food to Feng Lianzheng, and softly told him to eat more. Feng Lianzheng also put vegetables into the bowl for his mother. Changsheng was touched by this picture of mother's kindness and filial piety, and he felt sorry for himself as an orphan and had not seen his own mother, when he heard a fierce knock on the door and abuse.

Father Feng's face changed drastically, and he immediately asked Feng Lianzheng to take his sister and Changsheng into the room. Feng Lian Zheng asked, "Those people outside ......?"

Feng Mu was a little frightened on her face, but she still pushed a few of them into the room, "It's okay, don't come out inside." With that, he lowered the curtain on the door.

Feng Lianzheng's sister quietly opened a crack, and four fierce men came outside, spreading their hands and asking Feng's father to rent a son. Father Feng pleaded, "This year's harvest is really bad, can you give it a few more days?" ”

The man who came to collect the rent glanced at the dining table, and when he got angry, he lifted the table, "The harvest is not good, there is no money to pay rent, but there is still money to eat!" My lord kindly rented the land to you, but your rent has been delayed again and again, I think you are planning to cheat and not give it. ”

Father Feng said, "No, it's just that there is really no silver now, I beg the uncle for a few more days, I will borrow it and pay the rent." ”

The man didn't believe it, glanced at the humble house, and began to search the house with the other three. Those who rummage through boxes and cabinets will smash cups and bowls when they see jars. Father Feng stepped forward to stop him, and the man raised his fist and punched Father Feng in the face, and the Feng brothers and sisters couldn't hide anymore, so they lifted the curtain and went out.

Changsheng also went out, thinking that the self-defense kung fu that the master taught her didn't know if she could make it in the dream.

The man begging for rent glanced over the ordinary-looking face of Changsheng, stopped at the young and beautiful Feng family girl, and said with a smile, "These two are your daughters?" If you really don't have any money, one of them is good-looking, and you can pay off the debt with the beautiful one. ”

When Feng's mother heard this, she immediately protected her daughter behind her. The man pushed Feng's mother away, and insisted on holding the girl of the Feng family to hold her chin to see her face clearly. Gu Changsheng stepped heavily on the man's foot with an arrow step according to what Fu Yan had taught, and wanted to attack the man's abdomen while the man was in pain.

Who knew that theory and practice were really two different things, and the man who collected the debt did not hurt her attack, and he did not show mercy to her because she was a woman, and punched her directly in the eye. Changsheng thought that since it was a dream, even if it was cut by a thousand knives, there would be no pain.

But even the dream was lying to her, and the injury on her eyes not only hurt, but also hurt badly.

"This girl still wants to hit someone." The man laughed at her inadequacy, and when she saw that the house was in a mess, the pots and pans were all broken, she also searched for two pieces of money, thinking that the effect of intimidation had also been achieved, and their purpose was to collect money, and they didn't want to make things bigger, and it would be thankless to alarm the government.

He said, "I'll come back tomorrow, and I'll have the rent ready." You pressed your fingerprints at the beginning, and it is only natural that you owe money to repay the debt, and if you can't pay the money tomorrow, I will take your daughter away. ”

The man put the two pieces away, left his companion with a threat. Feng's mother hurriedly asked Feng Lianzheng to find a doctor, and after the doctor came to see it, he said that Feng's father's injury was a skin injury, and he just applied some medicine. And Gu Changsheng's injury, even if he ignores it, the bruises will disappear in a few days.

Father Feng apologized and asked Changsheng to follow his daughter to rest and leave early tomorrow morning. said that this kind of thing happened at home, and it was not good to keep her anymore, for fear of affecting her.

Changsheng covered his bruised eyes, thinking that this dream was really real enough, and followed the daughter of the Feng family back to the room, before lying down, before he could count it, he had already heard the rooster announce, and when he turned around, the girl of the Feng family next to him was gone.

Feng's father and Feng's mother went out early in the morning to find someone to borrow money, and the Feng family actually owed the rent for several months, just to prevent their son from being distracted and concentrating on studying, and kept it a secret.

She went out of the room and saw Feng Lian laying out the drawing paper on the table and preparing the paint, but her eyes didn't turn and stared at the wolf pen she picked up yesterday in a daze.

She felt that her eyes still hurt a little, but the pain was not as strong as before, "Feng Gongzi." Feng Lianzheng came back to his senses, and it was estimated that he didn't sleep all night last night, and his face was not very good. Changsheng said, "Do you want to paint?" ”

Feng Lianzheng smiled bitterly, "What the family needs most now is silver. Du Yuanwai is about to celebrate his birthday, I heard yesterday that someone in his house wants to buy a few well-intentioned paintings back to hang, I want to sub-paint, take it for a while and ask Du Fu if he is willing to accept it. ”

"Then why not paint?"

Feng Lian was right, "My pen is broken, and I can't afford it at home, how can I paint without a pen?" There is only the pen I picked up yesterday in the house, but I don't ask if I think it's a thief. ”

Changsheng didn't know what advice to give him, so he had to keep quiet.

Feng Lianzheng hesitated for a while, just thinking of the ruthlessness of that group of people, if there was really no money to give, maybe she would really use her sister to pay off the debt. He gritted his teeth, picked up the pen and said, "Only when I borrow it first, and when this matter is over, I will personally apologize to the owner of the pen." ”

The member surnamed Du is a monkey, and Feng Lianzheng plans to draw a monkey to offer peaches. He was very good at painting, and after a while, he saw a monkey holding a longevity peach on the paper, and he almost finished this step. Changsheng exclaimed, "You painted like. ”

Feng Lianzheng sighed, "How good is the painting, no matter how talented you are, you can only say that you are useless and a scholar at this point." "His talent can't be exchanged for silver or rice, if it weren't for the hard work of his father and mother, I'm afraid he would have to eat three meals. He can't help the family with the rent he owes, and he really can't pay the money, so he doesn't have to think about the autumn test.

She encouraged, "It's also a great skill to be able to read. "At least if she holds the books and persists in reading hard for several years, she can't do it, she is not a reading material, so she especially admires the learned." Won't you be able to exchange money for this painting once you have painted it? ”

Feng Lian smiled gratefully and cheered up. The pen was dipped in ink, and he added eyeballs to the monkey's eye sockets, and was about to put his name on it and stamp it, but the monkey's eyes in the painting actually moved back and forth. Feng Lianzheng couldn't grasp the wolf pen in his hand steadily, took a step back, but hit the chair, sat on the ground, pointed to his own painting, and couldn't speak for a long time.

Gu Changsheng saw an ink-colored monkey jumping out of the drawing paper with a pink peach in his arms, his tail swept the dish containing cinnabar to the ground, and then he ran out of the window and disappeared over the low wall of the courtyard.

Feng Lianzheng was afraid that something strange would jump out of the drawing paper for a while, so he stood up cautiously, and when he got closer, there was a blank piece of paper on the table, and there was nothing in the paper as it was before he had left the ink.

Feng Lian Zheng looked at Changsheng and stammered, "Am I hell or am I daydreaming." ”

Changsheng whispered, "I must be dreaming." "Dreams are usually imaginative, even if you see the sun rising in the west, you don't need to be nervous.

Feng Lian Zheng thought that the four treasures of the study he used had been bought in a shop all these years, because the boss saw that he was a regular customer, and he was willing to buy paper cheaper, so he went to that shop to patronize it, and there had been no strange things in these years.

Thoughtfully, he slowly reached over and picked up the wolf's pen, and sketched a plum blossom with a few simple strokes on the drawing paper. I saw the plum blossom emerge from the drawing paper, just because it had not yet been colored, it was a faint ink color, and it exuded a light ink fragrance.

In order to confirm, Feng Lianzheng drew several objects on the paper in a row, and they all floated out of the paper one by one and became tangible objects. Feng Lianzheng was pleasantly surprised, "It turns out that this pen is a treasure. ”

The little sister of the Feng family came in with two bowls of white porridge, "What treasure?" When Father Feng went out, he explained to her, saying that this Gu girl had no relatives and no reason and was penniless, and she was injured for their family's affairs for no reason last night, and if there was still money at home, she would definitely give some in return, but unfortunately the money was all taken away. I could only make breakfast and let the family eat before leaving.

Feng Lian Zheng said with a smile, "The gods in the sky must not be able to see good people suffering, and now they have appeared to the rescue." Don't worry about not being able to rent it anymore. ”

He washed the ink off his pen with clean water, dipped it in yellow paint, traced the shape of gold on the drawing paper, and after a while he saw an ingot of gold shining brightly on the table.

The girl of the Feng family was taken aback and quickly put down the porridge.

Changsheng said, "Are you going to use this to pay the rent?" She watched the girl of the Feng family happily pick up the gold, this is gold, even if she is busy in the field for a lifetime, she may not be able to save it, let alone rent, it is more than enough to buy land. Is that good? ”

She knew that the Feng family were all honest people, and there was no way to do it. She also can't get used to those thugs who collect rent and bully people with their fists. But in this way, it can be regarded as a fraud.

Feng Lian Zheng promised, "I also know that I didn't earn this gold, and I deserve it." It's just that I have no choice but to use it to pay off my debts. Once this urgent need is solved, I will never do such a thing again. ”

Changsheng saw that Feng Lianzheng repeatedly promised that the things would be returned to the original owner after the incident, although he felt that it was not appropriate, he didn't say anything more. The brothers and sisters of the Feng family were immersed in the joy brought by the ingot of gold, and they didn't notice that Changsheng had stepped out of the Feng family.

The surrounding scenery changed again, and the position of Changsheng Station returned to the street where he had first fallen asleep.

I don't know if it was the first day of the new year or the fifteenth day of the new year, and many pedestrians on the road took incense candles and passed by her to rush to offer incense.

"Miss Gu." Changsheng heard someone calling, and turned around to see Feng Lianzheng, at this time, he was no longer dressed like the poor and down-and-out scholar he saw for the first time, but changed into clothes made of quite decent satin fabric. It's the same gentleness, but it feels a little different.

Feng Lianzheng hurriedly walked over, in Changsheng's opinion, they were just separated for a blink of an eye, but Feng Lianzheng was in a tone that he hadn't seen for a long time, "You didn't say goodbye that day, you didn't leave a word, my father and mother have always felt very guilty for burdening you, we asked around the city, but no one knew your whereabouts." ”

She had only taken two steps, and she was already a white horse, "Feng Gongzi, are you doing well?" ”

Feng Lian Zheng smiled and nodded, "I will go to the autumn exam in eight days, and if I can be named on the gold list, I will be able to show my ambitions and be a good official who asks for the people." ”

Changsheng looked at him with high spirits and thought that the matter of renting the child should be solved smoothly, but she was also happy for him, she asked casually, "Has the owner of the wolf pen been found?" ”

Feng Lian was stunned for a moment, the smile on his face was a little unnatural, "I found it, I have returned the pen." ”

Changsheng smiled and said, "It's good to go back." "You shouldn't covet other people's things, Feng Gongzi is a scholar, if you want to come to these books, he must understand them more thoroughly than her, and she doesn't need to say it again." Where are you going? ”

"I want to buy some pen and paper." Feng Lian Zheng invited, "Where is the girl staying now, if you are not in a hurry to go back, let's go to the house and have a cup of tea." ”

Changsheng wanted to say that Feng Lianzheng didn't have to be too polite, she had just come out of their house to eat. I have seen a sedan chair, I don't know which family's daughter, the sedan chair followed by two maids, carrying a bamboo basket in their hands, the basket contains the pastries and fruits and candles that will be offered for a while.

"How long is it left?" Changsheng heard the young lady in the sedan chair ask.

The maid lifted the curtain on the sedan window, revealing the beautiful face of the young lady in the sedan chair. The maid calculated the distance, "After two more intersections, you will be there." When the maid finished answering, she saw that her young lady nodded slightly, and then lowered the curtain.

Feng Lian Zheng stared at the sedan chair and kept watching, looking depressed.

Changsheng heard the two vendors beside him, who were also lucky enough to see the girl's face, talking.

"That's the daughter of Du Mansion, she was born really beautiful."

"Of course it's beautiful, if it's not beautiful, how can the master of the Du family pick and choose a satisfactory son-in-law, and the old man Du with an average family background can't look down on him."

"Isn't this master of the Du family a good man, don't you hate the poor and love the rich."

"It's one thing to do good deeds, and who wants their daughter to suffer. I heard that there was a rich man in the city who carried two boxes of white flowers and silver to ask for his wife, and he was driven out, but I am afraid that if I don't have four or five boxes of gold, I don't want to climb high. ”
