Chapter 20: A Lifetime Illness
Manshu then scolded Wuying and said: "-For fear of seeing Zhang Ling, he actually avoided all of them outside, but did a good thing for demons. The pen, fun, and pavilion www.biquge.info are none of our business, and Zhang Ling is stupid, and he will also fall there! It affected me, but I was afraid that someone would find out about my cultivation in advance, so I had to pretend to be robbed, slow down for a while, and then build a situation to win the trust of others. ”
The words were completely in the tone of Xi Qi. The elders all praised: "Regardless of whether that Thorn Lady is real or not, that black robe is real." You can't get rid of their faction. The head of the family can capture it, and the god is powerful! He added: "It was all accidentally recruited by Zhang Ling, and Zhang Ling should be called for training." ”
Manshu sneered: "I'm tired of fighting, are your brains rusty?" At this time, didn't the five eagles all stare at Zhang Ling? Are you recruiting him? ”
If Elder Hua and the others had doubts in their eyes, but now they have dispelled them to their heart's content, Du Kua Manshu thought thoughtfully, and said regretfully: "If you can say it, you will not lose an opportunity to make a name for yourself." ”
"The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." Manshu regained his fairy-like indifference and said, "What's the use of that false name?" But I knew this for a long time, and it might be useful to choose someone to come out and plant this credit to him to help him become famous. Things started in a hurry, and I was afraid that there would be flaws in the more branches, and I just stopped. ”
The elders all said yes. Elder Hua said again, Xi's nephew and the shopkeeper with the word "Ji" happened to come back to pay the account, and he could be entertained by reasoning, I wonder if the head of the family would like to see him?
Manshu searched the list of names in Xiqi's memory, and knew that this person's status was neither high nor low, and his credit was always not too big or small, and the account was routine, so he didn't need special treatment, so he said: "Let's go!" The black-robed banshee may not be a famous thorn, but she is also afraid of attracting a famous thorn. Although the famous thorn should be contained in the Eagle Cave, he may not have heard the news and came to us for trouble. But don't be careful. I need to be on guard, and so do you. Routine handover, you assign the responsibility of the old man to be. In the past few days, if it is not the most important person or thing, I will not come forward in person. To the outside world, it is only said that the injury is recuperated. ”
But he said that the nephew of the Xi family, originally surnamed Shi, because his mother died early, his father was busy marrying another, and sent Ah Shi to the Xi family to take it. Later, Ah Shi came out, from a buddy to taking care of the "Ji" business, his father was willing to be closer to him again, and Ah Shi also fulfilled his responsibility to support. It's just that his father boasted of his "grace of teaching" over the years, but it was nothing more than those letters urging him to study hard. Ah Shi didn't slap his father's face, he just pulled the corners of his mouth and didn't respond.
It is said that children are the debts of their parents' lives, and some parents are still the debts of their children's lives. It's just that there is this grace of birth and raising, and Ah Shi has no plans to return to his father for the time being, so he still recognizes this kindness, but fortunately, his father is also in the prime of life, and Ah Shi's responsibility for raising is not heavy, and he has done his best to obtain it from the merchants obtained by the Xi family.
His father wants him to be more responsible, who doesn't want to take advantage of it? Who doesn't want to rub oil if they have it? But the shopkeeper who can be at the bottom of the family is not a soft pestle with oil and casual rubbing. His father's request was excessive, and Ah Shi played Tai Chi to escape. His father still wanted to have a few complaints, but the local thugs came to the door and told his father to put a bright spot and not to dirty the goodwill of the family.
Yes! Ah Shi is now a member of the family. To hurt Ashi's reputation is to hurt the reputation of the Xi family. Asking for trouble for Ah Shi is equivalent to making trouble for the Xi family. His father died down.
Na Ah Shi was born delicate, usually low-key and kind, and colleagues like it. When he came back this time, although the eldest lady did not entertain the meeting, the elder came to receive him personally, asked him about his business and life, and praised him. Who knows that Xi Qi is already the real head of the family? Ah Shi's glory is already very high.
After the elder finished talking, another colleague picked up. Kabuki also came out to perform. The colleague said that the top one of them would go to the field to receive dignitaries.
Ah Shi looked at the skills of those kabuki, which was naturally good, but it was okay. There was a little maid sitting next to the field to help adjust the lights and guard the clothes, but it was very beautiful, and he couldn't take his eyes off it.
When his colleague saw his gaffe, he followed his gaze, what else did he not understand? smiled at him: "This little girl really looks good, isn't she?" ”
Ah Shi was uncertain, and he couldn't answer. The colleague was afraid that he was really lovesick, so he hurriedly called the little maid's name "Chinchilla" and asked her to bring something over.
Chinchilla got up and walked up, with a slightly strange posture, but in fact, you can't see it if you don't look carefully. Ah Shi was careful, and he saw it at that time. A colleague attached to his ear and revealed: "Yes! She's a lame. ”
At that moment, Ah Shi's expression was as if he had been hit by a boulder.
My colleague was afraid that he was in love, so he let him see the flaws of this girl early, who knew that he was hit so hard, thinking that he had just seen it, even if he saw the beauty of the heart, why was he so fascinated? I didn't feel secretly surprised.
The alder pepper took something over, and when she saw Ah Shi looking at her, she was also displeased, and turned around to leave, but Ah Shi rushed to ask, "You, how did you hurt your leg?" ”
Chinchilla put down his face and said, "It's not an injury." It's a problem in the womb. ”
Ah Shifang felt that he was abrupt, and his face was red. Pepper turned around and left. Ah Shi raised his glass and took a sip of tea, only to feel a little calmer. A colleague said slowly: "There is no grass at the end of the world." Although this girl has a beautiful face, she was born with a short leg, which is not something that ordinary spiritual cultivators can correct. What's more, there is a problem. ”
Ah Shidao: "What is it?" ”
The colleague said: "Don't you think it was too fragrant when she came over just now?" ”
Ah Shi did feel that the inferior incense powder on her body tasted pungent.
A colleague told him that it was not about the incense powder. This pepper is born to sweat, and when it sweats, the smell of sweat is very heavy. So she had to use a very heavy incense. Even if you use it like this, it still smells after sweating. Legend has it that there is a very high spiritual skill and a very rare elixir that can cure this sweaty disease. But how can she, a little girl, afford to use it? Like a lame leg, it's a lifelong disease. What about a beautiful face? After everyone cultivates spiritually, their appearance can be fine-tuned, and after they are high, they can be adjusted in a big tone, and they can pinch their faces by themselves after they are high! So there are a lot of beauties in Lingzhou. Only her lame leg can't be made up for with a little spiritual cultivation.
This alder pepper is very strong by nature, poor born with a stubborn disease, and has no good qualifications for spiritual cultivation, when she walks, she is afraid that people will laugh at her lameness, take the thick-soled insoles on the side, and practice the walking manners hard, it is easy not to see it without looking carefully, but this bottom can not be hidden from people after all. I'm afraid she won't be able to get married in this life. The colleague saw that Ah Shi was suddenly fascinated and persuaded him with good words. Ah Shi's expression was depressed, and he only chattered in his mouth, but he was finally restless, and he didn't make any other moves.
In the end, he understands people, and Ah Shi himself knows what to throw away.
He didn't go back looking for the alder.
But one day later, Ah Shi was walking on the road, and he happened to see Tsukiko coming over with a basket of clothes. Ah Shi's first reaction was to take a detour, he was stunned, and his footsteps turned back in a ghostly way, and he was still standing on the road in front of Tunjiao.
Chinchilla raised her head and asked him with her eyes: What are you doing?
The eyes looked like a little hedgehog with thorns.
Ah Shi said: "You, you were really born with a lame leg?" ”
Chinchilla sneered, didn't answer, and rushed to his side, using actions to give him words: Don't grunt! Get out of the way of the old lady!
Fancy her beauty? She doesn't necessarily like him yet! She used pride to hide her inferiority, and thought hatefully: I think I'm lame, and I'm not worthy of you? The old lady doesn't want to match you yet!
Ah Shi hurriedly said behind her: "You misunderstood, I have seen a person who is very similar to you. ”
Pepper seems to believe it or not. Ah Shi pointed to the sky and swore that "Really! Then he said so-and-so and so-and-so.
At that time, he had just become a small leader among the men, and he was escorted to a certain place to pay homage to the local spiritual temple.
The spiritual view is very quiet, the wall is very short, and you can see the peach blossoms blooming just right on the wall. Ah Shi entered through the small door, and did not see any other pilgrims, but saw a monk sitting under the porch, silently visiting the Tao, and did not receive guests. Ah Shi traveled around by himself, and saw some spiritual treasures, statues and murals, as well as the peach blossoms planted all over the small garden, reflecting with people-
Hey, wait a minute, where are the people?
Ah Shi saw a woman folding flowers under the tree, her figure was slender, her face was in the flowers, she couldn't see it really, only faintly saw the clear lines, and the skin behind her ears was particularly soft. Ah Shi was thrilled at that time.
The woman folded the flower, and then turned around and walked away, with a fluttering step. Ah Shi didn't dare to approach, looking at the direction she was walking from a distance, there were not many people by the stream. He estimated the house she had entered, and wanted to visit her, but he was embarrassed and wanted to throw it away, but he was reluctant. Fortunately, he was a small leader, and the itinerary could be about the master, so he stayed for one more day, and only visited the shrine from morning to night, and watched there, the emperor lived up to his painstaking efforts, and saw the woman come out to the stream to draw water. Ah Shi was very happy, and also approached the stream. This time, the woman looked up at him, but her face was full of potholes, and her eyes were very unkind, and she asked him what he was doing.
Ah Shi couldn't answer, so he staggered away after a few words. People looked at him and asked him what was wrong. He said that he had fallen, and he couldn't help but talk about a family by the stream......
"Oh, Ganzai. Their new daughter-in-law! Hurry up a few days early, and you can still eat their sweets. "People say.
I see. Don't be suspicious of people with pockmarks on their faces and bad breath. People already have husbands, and it's not your turn! Ah Shi smiled and retreated.
Until he saw the alder pepper again.
Under the light, the shadow is similar to the daughter-in-law of the Gan family, and there is no pockmark, and the bright light is even more visible.
"It's a pity I'm sick, isn't it?" Chinchilla simply said it herself.
Ah Shi bowed his head.
"And I have a bad breath." Pepper said by herself.
It's all the truth. Ah Shi couldn't contradict her.
"Actually, that's my sister." Pepper said again.
"Huh?" Ashi was dumbfounded.
That daughter-in-law of a certain village and a certain family, "is my sister." "My family is poor, and my father and mother sold my sister to that family as a daughter-in-law before, and sold me here as a girl." As soon as I heard you say it, I knew that my sister was sick when she was a child, and she didn't treat it well, and she was left with a pockmarked face. She also has a bad temper, and she can fight with me for something, and she can beat me to blood. (To be continued.)
