Chapter 120: Night Visit to Yue Pengju
There is a Tangyin County under Xiangzhou, there is a place in this county, called 'filial piety brother Li Yonghe Township Yuejiazhuang' lives here a family, now the old lady of this family has a big birthday, the family is laughing and laughing, Mrs. Li is busy with Zhang Luo, receiving the neighbors to sit at the table, but the old lady and the man in the house have not come out, there are good friends in the township and the neighborhood have been urging a few times, Li is in a hurry, but he does not dare to urge, can only turn like an ant on a hot pot.
In a hurry, several boys ran over with a smile, Li saw it at a glance, hurriedly grabbed one, and said: "Yun'er, go and see, your father went to urge your grandmother, why hasn't he come out yet." ”
The boy agreed, and ran inside, passed through the hall, and arrived outside the bedroom of his grandmother Yao Laotaijun, and saw his father at a glance, the male owner of the house, Yue Fei Yue Pengju, was kneeling outside the bedroom door, his body was straight, but he didn't dare to come out, the boy couldn't help but stick out his tongue, and he went around from the front with his heart, and went around the window of the back room of Mrs. Yao, where a big stone was standing, and the boy went over, climbed up with two short legs, and after standing up, he listened inside, and watched his movements to know, He didn't do any less of such things.
A girl inside said softly: "Grandmother, the guests in front have arrived, you just blame Daddy, and you have to go to the front to say hello, and Daddy is the head of the family, if he doesn't go to the front, everyone asks, how to get over." The boy knew that it was his sister Yue Yinhua who was talking, and he couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "Daddy's obedient person, when did he provoke his grandmother?" Do you want Sister A to intercede for him? This discovery made the boy excited, and he listened more attentively.
Mrs. Yao snorted coldly and said, "Your father is old and doesn't listen to me anymore, what else do I go out for." ”
"Grandmother!" The girl said: "Daddy is filial, how can he not listen to you, if he has something to anger you, you just have to let him change it." ”
Mrs. Yao was close to each other, and she couldn't afford to be so angry with this well-behaved granddaughter, so she sighed and said, "Silver bottle, it's not that grandmother wants to brush your father's face and punish him for kneeling outside at this time, but grandmother is worried!" ”
Yao Lao Taijun continued: "Your father has been taught by your grandfather Zhou, and he has become a martial artist and has the ability to do it, but since ancient times, as long as people have the ability, they will have a lot of desires...... Grandmother asks you, how long has it been since you had eaten meat? ”
The sun shined into the room through the tulle on the window of the Linghua Pavilion, and shone on the girl who was sitting leaning on a half-new wooden couch, and opposite her was the half-lying Yao Laotaijun, the girl looked at Yao Laotaijun with some astonishment, she couldn't figure out why her grandmother was on a serious topic, and suddenly changed her question to eat meat, but she still replied respectfully: "Today, Daddy has prepared a lot of fish and meat, and I will eat enough in a silver bottle." ”
The girl deliberately made a salivating appearance, stretched out her red and tender tongue, and licked her full lips, Yao Lao Taijun saw it in her eyes, and couldn't help shaking her head, so she reached out and stroked the girl's head and said: "Grandmother knows that although there will be some meat in Grandmother's bowl, our silver bottle has not seen meat for three months, do you know why?" ”
"This year, there was a large influx of disaster victims, and my father took food and silver money in exchange for more brown rice to help them. ”
"Yes, your father has helped a lot of people, those people are in poverty, they are very grateful to your father, at this time, if your father raises his arms and takes these people as thieves, plus your father's ability, Hebei all the way, who can stop him?"
The girl's face was strange, and Mrs. Yao saw it in her eyes, and said: "I know, Yinhua'er also thinks that grandmother is unlikely, but if you think about Uncle Niu Gao and Uncle Wang Gui, who lived here before, they all left with their families, and they went to Taihang Mountain to become kings, because they can't stand such a poor life, they are not bad people, but ...... The people of our Yue family would rather starve to death than be thieves! ”
The silver bottle looked a little more upright, and said: "Grandmother, rest assured, although my father is not afraid of the difference between men and women, and teaches us literary and martial arts, but he is teaching us every moment that we can't do things that are disloyal and unfaithful. ”
Old Taijun Yao smiled, nodded to the forehead of the silver bottle, and said with a smile: "Clever ghost, you don't forget to help your father at this time, he remembers my loyalty, so why don't you talk to me about the envoy of Yang Qi, the king of Taihu Lake, in the first two private meetings?" If it weren't for Yue Yun's leakage, I wouldn't know it yet. ”
Only then did the silver bottle know why her grandmother was angry, and just as she was about to explain, she heard a voice from the back window; "Grandmother wronged people!" Hurriedly went over and opened the back window, and when he saw his younger brother Yue Yun lying there, he couldn't help but flick on his head in annoyance, and then grabbed his shoulders and carried him to the house, saying, "How many times has Daddy been, you are not allowed to pick up your grandmother's window again, have you forgotten?" ”
Yue Yun grinned, he didn't take Yinzhu'er's words as the same thing, Yinzhu'er also knew that this son was the eldest grandson of the father-in-law's family, although his grandmother did not have the idea of patriarchy, but he was much more important than himself in his grandmother's heart, in front of his grandmother, even his father did not dare to beat him, and he naturally had no way to clean him up, so he could only stop.
Old Taijun Yao smiled at Yue Yun and said, "Good grandson, you, why did grandmother wronged people?" ”
Yue Yun said: "Daddy sent the messenger named Wang Zuo away at that time, and my grandmother is about to celebrate her birthday, so I can only make my grandmother annoyed, so I don't." ”
Mrs. Yao laughed and said, "Good son, why didn't you have anything to do with your grandmother?" ”
Yue Yun said with a grin: "That's half, I thought that if I got it all, as soon as my grandmother and my father got it, my father would know that I was going to his study again, and he would definitely look for me, so he lost it again." ”
"You're not doing this anymore, but you're miserable to your father!" Old Mrs. Yao sighed lightly, and then said to the silver bottle: "You go out, call your father in." ”
The silver bottle hurriedly agreed, then retreated, and after a while, accompanied Yue Fei in.
Yue Fei arrived at the couch, knelt on the ground again, and then said to Mrs. Yao: "Dao: "The son is not filial, which makes his mother worried, but he asks his mother to punish him!" Although he knelt outside the door, he heard everything in the house, so after coming in, he talked to Mrs. Yao again.
Yao Lao Taijun listened like that, and waited until Yue Fei was finished, and then said: "Pengju, my mother also knows that you are not that kind of person, but now at this time, the second emperor is covered with dust, and there is a big chaos, and the land of Tangyin County, relying on you, can not be poisoned, and there is almost no one in the whole county who does not respect you, at this time, it is easiest for you to be a little more ambitious, and my mother also has to be hearty." ”
"Please rest assured!" Yue Fei said: "The child has already been with you, Xu Enshi sent a letter to the child, and he is protecting the child in the imperial court, and the child thinks that at this time, only by devoting himself to the imperial court can he truly achieve the word loyalty." ”
Mrs. Yao pondered for a moment, and then said, "Pengju, let's go to the front, my mother has to do something." ”
Yue Fei was puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask, so he helped the old lady to get up and was about to go out, but he didn't expect the old lady to say again: "Silver bottle, take out the box with the golden phoenix in your grandmother's cabinet and take it with you." ”
Yinhua'er knew that the box was filled with needles and threads, although she didn't understand why Yao Lao Taijun asked her to hold this, but she still took the box and held it in her hand, while Yue Fei supported Yao Lao Taijun, Yue Yun followed with short legs, and the group went to the front.
Everyone in the front hall of this meeting was waiting in a hurry, as soon as they saw Yao Taijun and Yue Fei coming out, they couldn't help cheering at the same time, and everyone was cheering, no one noticed, and three people walked in at the gate of the village, all dressed as martial artists, one with a sword, two with knives, but they didn't come with gifts, as soon as they entered the courtyard, they heard that it was their mother-in-law's birthday, and the saber couldn't help but pat his thigh, and said: "We don't have a birthday gift, but it's unfortunate!" ”
A handsome young man said, "They look like this, and they are just about to start the birthday banquet, so why don't they prepare one?" ”
The man with the sword thought for a moment and said, "In this way, let's watch the ceremony first, and then come over with the birthday gift in the evening." When the two men with knives heard this, they froze at the same time, and they really couldn't understand why their master valued that hairy man so much.
The three of them found a place to sit down, and without eating, they looked up.
This will Yao Lao Taijun looked at everyone, and said: "Neighbors, you can come to this birthday for the old woman, the old body is grateful, the old body should sit down or let me, the child, accompany a few glasses of wine to show gratitude, but the old body wants to do something that has nothing to do with the birthday banquet today, please forgive me." ”
Everyone present looked at Mrs. Yao a little blankly, no one knew how to reply, at this time, an old man who was close to the Yue family stood up and said: "Old sister-in-law, if you have anything to do, just do it, we are all neighbors, and we can blame you." ”
Mrs. Yao nodded and said, "That old body is here to thank everyone!" Wan said to Yue Fei: "Pengju my son...... You...... On your knees! ”
Yue Fei didn't say a word, and knelt directly in front of Mrs. Yao, and Mrs. Yao said again: "Daughter-in-law, come over and remove his shirt!" Li didn't know what her mother-in-law was going to do, and she didn't dare to ask, so she came over and removed the clothes from her husband's body.
Mrs. Yao shouted again: "Silver bottle, bring the box." ”
At this moment, the atmosphere suddenly became very solemn, and the silver bottle instinctively felt that her heart was beating suddenly, and she forcibly opened her two weak legs, walked over, and came to the front of Yao Lao Taijun, and opened the box.
Old Taijun Yao picked up the upper layer of the box, revealing the lower layer, where there was a set of needles placed neatly, she took it out and said to Yue Fei: "Pengju, do you remember?" At the beginning, our mother and son were washed away from their hometown by the flood, and were rescued by the king of Neihuang County, and later moved out of his house in order to avoid suspicion, but there was no livelihood at all, there was no way, for the mother took over the tattoo work for those girls in the Neihuang tile, to make money to support us, and since you recognized Mr. Zhou as your father-in-law, for the mother is only afraid that this job will make Mr. Zhou disgusted, so it has been nearly fifteen years not to move this set of needles, and now for the mother to move this set of needles on your body! ”
Yao Lao Taijun suddenly accentuated his tone, and said in a deep voice: "Nowadays, there are traitors inside, Hu Lu outside, the second emperor is covered with dust, and the lives are ruined, but there are those who have one art and one ability, and they all have the ambition to swallow it, but my son of the Yue family, even if he dies, he can't humiliate this innocent body, so my mother wants you to remember all the time, what you should do!" ”
Yue Fei kowtowed first, and then said, "Mother, the child respectfully teaches!" ”
"Then my mother asked you, seven-foot man, between the ground, what should you do?"
"My son is willing to fight for the next, save the Song Dynasty in danger, and save lives in fire and water!"
"What is the word loyalty!"
"The Loyalist; The heart is in the center, selfless and innocent! ”
"What is the word for the country!"
"The Nation; Where the home exists, it will always depend on! ”
"How to repay the country!"
"The husband is not afraid of death, he is not afraid of ten thousand words, the weight of the country, the society, the weight of the people, the light of the king, if it is a state affair, no retreat!"
"Good!" Old Madam Yao's voice trembled a little and said, "You have to be good!" Since you have promised your life to the country, my Yue family will not spare your body! You kneel for me! As soon as the tip of the needle fell, blood gushed out like beads, and Mrs. Yao said in a deep voice: "Daughter-in-law, wipe blood!" Although Li Shi's legs were so frightened that they were weak, they still obediently went over and wiped the blood beads on Yue Fei's back with a white cloth.
The three people who came in later were Zhao Zhen, Yang Zhi and Yan Qing, at this time Zhao Zhen stood up, looked at his mother-in-law and Yue Fei with a shock, and Yue Fei's answer to his mother's question echoed in his ears, and couldn't help but say softly: "I see, no wonder Brother Jiu wants to kill him, his loyalty has never been one person and one king, but promised to the next country!" It's the ninth brother who can't get it, and he doesn't deserve it, that's why he ruined such a courtier! ”
If Zhao Zhen's understanding of Yue Fei was still on paper before, this would be in his soul, and he was extremely eager at the moment to hold Yue Fei in his hands, and he never wanted him to be ruined by Zhao Gou like the previous life.
Half an hour passed, Yao Lao Taijun's words were finally stabbed, she took the ink medicine with her own hands (a kind of medicine used in the Northern Song Dynasty tattoos, which can extinguish fire and fix color) and put it on Yue Fei's back, and immediately the four big characters of 'Jing Zhong to serve the country', from top to bottom, occupied Yue Fei's entire spine, and it was clearly presented in front of everyone.
The people who were shocked by the four words were stunned at first, and then applauded together, and shouted the four big words at the same time: "Serve the country with loyalty, serve the country with loyalty!" ”
Zhao Zhen only felt that his heart was surging, and he almost called out, and it was easy for him to hold back his words, so he pulled Yang Zhi and Yan Qing and said, "Let's go first, and come back in the evening!" "Just took advantage of no one's attention and went out from Yue's house.
Zhao Zhen's original intention was not to let others know that he was coming, but he didn't know that when he left and came back, he would regret it so much that his intestines were blue.
