Volume 1 - Who Have Seen Again Chapter 91 There Is a Girl in Arms (3)
The eldest master of the sect intervened in Shen Juren's remarriage, and Shen Rui didn't think there was anything.
Zhang Laoan, the elder of the fourth room, is unreliable, and he has not been out of the country in recent years, although Shen Juren cannot be said to be an otaku, he has a wide range of communication. If the He family has the heart to calculate this family business, they can count on the eldest wife of the sect and the eldest master of the sect.
These two are the sons and wives of the sect, and they are the brothers and sisters-in-law of Shen Juren, but they didn't expect the eldest lady of the sect to oppose this family business.
As for what the eldest lady of Zongfang said, Sifang remarried the He family, and she was not good at protecting Shen Rui, Shen Jue believed it, but Shen Rui didn't believe it. Regardless of whether the eldest wife of the sect and the Sun family have a friendship or not, and what the friendship is, in the past few years of the death of the Sun family, the eldest lady of the sect is just a human face, and there is no other place to treat Shen Rui.
However, Shen Rui believed that Shen Jue was worried that it was true that he had insomnia in the middle of the night, so he only felt a warmth in his heart, and said: "Brother Jue doesn't have to worry too much about me, I am not a child, I will be in the clan study during the day in the future, and I will only go home at night, so I can't get in the way of others." ”
Shen Jue snorted lightly and said: "How can it be as easy as you think, when your stepmother enters the door, it is a righteous dear elder, you can't say a word about life and death, but you are a lady in charge, your food, clothing and daily life depend on the arrangement over there." That one is just a branch of the He family, it can't be said that he is a small family, and his family background is ordinary, if he is stingy and stingy, even if he doesn't mean to treat you harshly, he can let you drink a pot. ”
Shen Rui said: "That's nothing, but if you spend a few more money, I can still move out." When the bride enters the door, she has to pretend to be a year and a half, and she will not have an immediate attack. Besides, since this family affair is handled by Second Master He, he will never choose an inappropriate candidate, otherwise it will either be a marriage, or an enmity on revenge. ”
When Shen Jue heard this, he thought about it for a while, patted his head and said: "Yes, since you are the person picked out by the second cousin, don't say that you are treating your brother harshly, I am afraid that it will be too late to please you, and I will be ...... if I care" Speaking of this, he looked at Shen Rui with some resentment and said: "It's you, you have no heart and lungs, don't panic, but it seems that you are an outsider, and I have become a troublesome person to worry about."
Shen Rui hurriedly reassured: "Just because I know that there are many people who worry about me, I am so confident, I have the six clan brothers and the eldest aunt as backers, and there is Brother Jue who thinks about me, what am I afraid of?" Not to mention that it's just the adopted daughter of the He family, even if the girl from the He family marries, I'm not afraid. ”
Shen Jue smiled and said: "It's okay for you to be like this, a manly man should have a long-term vision, and it's not interesting to watch out for these all day long." It's just that the little aunt who said goodbye to Uncle Yuan is twenty-nine years old, how old are you, and you don't get in the way for a while, your eldest brother and future sister-in-law will be embarrassed. ”
Shen Rui nodded, it was true.
However, it is not uncommon for the stepmother and stepson to be of the same age, not to mention that Shen Juren is only in his early forties, even if the old man in the sixtieth year continues to fill the house with a fifteen or sixteen-year-old lady.
While the two brothers were talking, the carriage arrived at Nancheng.
Shen Jue's eyes were shining, and he was full of energy.
There was already a lot of people outside, and the carriage didn't dare to go through it at all. Shen Jue beckoned Shen Rui to get out of the carriage, sent the coachman back first, and the two of them took a scholar and walked to a temple in front of them with a flourishing incense.
On both sides of the road, there are all kinds of vendors, some selling incense and candles, some selling food and snacks, and some selling all kinds of gadgets, and the cries are endless.
Among these vendors were all kinds of beggars, some old, some young, some disabled, some blind, all kneeling and sitting there with pitiful faces.
Because it is the birthday of the Buddha, there are many people who do good deeds on this day, and it cannot be said that copper coins are like rain, but I can see that these people have gained a lot of money. The face of almsgiving is full of compassion, the kneeling prostration, and the smoke of incense in the distance, and the faint sound of the bell, echoing, forming a picture of good deeds in front of the temple.
Shen Jue glanced at it and said disapprerovitically: "If you don't cultivate good fruits, you will become a good person if you do good deeds once a year?" ”
For those middle-aged beggars, Shen Jue looked down on them even more, muttering: "There are many cripples in this world, I don't see all of them beggars, but they are lazy to do."
He said so, but he was not a stingy person, so he asked the scholar to give a few old beggars copper coins, and did not forget to say to Shen Rui: "These old people, no matter if they really can't live their lives, or they want to be greedy for a few dollars, it is really not easy to kneel here in this big winter moon." ”
There is a good prefect in Songjiang Prefecture, and in recent years, the government has been harmonious, and there are no natural disasters**, where will so many beggars pour out all of a sudden.
As Shen Jue said, most of these so-called beggars are temporarily dressed up for this temple fair. Most of those middle-aged beggars are lazy and lazy ruffians, and these old people are either poor or have unfilial children, and they come out to beg for various reasons, but they are pitiful and pitiful.
Shen Rui's idea coincided with Shen Jue, so he also instructed Liu Cheng to take a handful of money out, dismantle it, and hand it to a few old beggars.
This act happened to fall into the eyes of the side.
Not far away, a young man showed a little smile on his face, walked a few steps quickly, approached, and reached out to pat Shen Rui's shoulder.
Shen Ruiyin has studied kung fu for a few years, and his ears and eyes are clear, and he immediately noticed that something was wrong. Before he could react in his mind, his body had already turned sideways and grabbed the incoming arm.
The person who came didn't know whether he was shocked or was hurt, and he was surprised.
Shen Rui blinked, a little surprised, and said, "Junior Brother Dong? ”
The person who came was not an outsider, it was Dong Shuang, who left from the Shen clan a few days ago.
Dong Shuang pursed his lips and said a little shyly: "Brother Shen......"
Shen Rui only felt that the palm of his hand was smooth and tender, and he couldn't help but bend his index finger and rub it twice.
Dong Shuang's face immediately turned red as if it was on fire, and he bit his lip and glared at Shen Rui, with a thin anger on his face, and said, "Brother Shen, don't let go yet."
Shen Rui laughed twice and let go of Dong Shuang's arms, it wasn't that he had the intention to "tease" just now, but it was a subconscious action. Before, I just thought that Dong Shuang's appearance was difficult to distinguish between male and female, but now that I pay attention, I find that he also acts with femininity, and he seems to have a good impression of himself.
It's not that Shen Rui is amorous, it's actually Dong Shuang's joy and anger that are not difficult to distinguish. Even if Shen Rui's talent was inappropriate, which caused Dong Shuang to be ashamed, Dong Shuang didn't mean to be really angry, and his eyes looking at Shen Rui were still faintly joyful.
Shen Rui's face was as usual, and he was a little frightened in his heart, although he had a good impression of Dong Shuang, it was just because he saw that he was young, diligent, and respectable, and he had no other meaning.
Regardless of whether this Dong Shuang is "Zhu Yingtai" or "Qin Zhong", Shen Rui has no intention of going further with him.
The male style of Songjiang Mansion is not as blatant as that of Fujian, but there are a lot of them. Classmates and friends are brothers, a pair of good before marriage, and there is no shortage of people who move around after marriage, but it is a romantic affair. Shen Zhu has a deed brother, who is the in-law brother who came to the clan to study, and now he is also a showman, and he is Shen Zhu's follower in the clan study.
Shen Rui didn't mean to do this, but secretly regretted it in his heart. He and Dong Shuang have not been at the same table for a long time, but the two often talk about homework together, and they also know Dong Shuang's level. Although Dong Shuang is young, he has solid homework and learns things quickly, if he is dedicated to the road of the imperial examination, he will go far.
The relationship between classmates and the same table may become the same year in the future. Shen Rui thought he was a confidant on the same road, if Dong Shuang's "closeness" was to others, Shen Rui would definitely not be involved and would not despise him, friends are friends, and friends' private affairs are friends' private affairs. But the object of this "closeness" is himself, and he can only retreat.
Shen Jue was in front, but when he heard the movement behind him, he turned around and looked over, and saw Dong Shuang talking to Shen Rui with a smile.
Shen Jue walked over, looked at Dong Shuang a few times, and said, "Look at you, you have paid off more than when you were in the clan study, is this double hard work?" ”
Hearing him say this, Shen Rui also looked at Dong Shuanglai.
Fang Cai only felt that Dong Shuang's face was a little pale, and after a closer look, he was thinner than a few days ago, and his chin was much sharper.
Dong Shuang smiled a little embarrassedly: "I don't dare to be lazy, I don't want to do too much homework with my classmates." ”
Shen Jue shook his head disapprovingly and said, "You are smaller than everyone else, so why are you in a hurry?" Studying is not an overnight thing, if you continue to stay up like this, your body will collapse, and how long will you be on the road to the imperial examination? ”
Shen Jue has always looked down on Dong Shuang, and as soon as this slightly concerned word was spoken, Dong Shuang couldn't help but be "flattered", and said with a smile: "Thank you Brother Shen for your teachings." ”
Shen Jue glanced at Shen Rui and said, "You call Brother Rui Brother Shen, and you also call me Brother Shen, and you will meet your classmate or Brother Shen in a while." In the future, you will call me Fifth Brother Jue, and you will be the second brother of Rui Gerui. ”
Dong Shuang listened, glanced at Shen Rui hesitantly, and changed his words from the admonition.
Shen Rui was beside him, watching Shen Jue frown at himself, quite helpless. He understands what Shen Jue means, that is, for the sake of his face, he accepts Dong Shuang as a friend with "love for the house and Wu".
However, looking at Shen Jue, who has never liked Dong Shuang, can sincerely accept Dong Shuang as a friend just because he is close to him, Shen Rui feels that his thinking is a little narrow.
Even if Dong Shuang has a good impression of himself, and this good impression is not as pure as Shen Jue's, but his age is here, a teenager, a hazy little bit of good feeling, and he cares about what he does. As long as you pay attention to yourself in the future, don't show ambiguity, and don't respond to this good feeling, some of the feelings born in this young man's ignorance may be scattered.
Thinking like this, Shen Rui felt much more at ease, knowing that Dong Shuang cared most about the four books, so he explained the key solutions of the master recently.
Dong Shuang listened attentively, but Shen Jue plucked his ears on the side, and said helplessly: "Okay, two nerds, I'm here to visit the temple fair today, don't gossip, don't forget to get down to business."
Hearing this, Shen Rui and Dong Shuang looked at each other and smiled, only Shen Jue, a playful guy, would treat serious homework as gossip and shopping and playing as a serious matter
The two of them didn't lose their fun, and they both stopped talking.
Shen Jue looked at the appearance of the two good babies in front of him, raised his chin proudly and said, "There are a lot of fun things to play at this temple fair, I don't think you have seen it before." Let's go, the fifth brother will take you to have a good time."
Before Dong Shuang could speak, the little scholar behind him was already secretly tugging at his clothes; He glanced back, still nodded, and said, "Then follow Fifth Brother Jue to see and see."
Shen Rui naturally had nothing to say, and everyone followed Shen Jue and squeezed to a crowded square in front of the temple.
The venue here, divided into several pieces in the middle, set up a platform, is to play a hundred operas, there are people who climb the knife mountain, there are monkeys, there are fire-breathers, and there are bowls, all around a circle of people, from time to time there are cheers. There are some stalls around, most of which are games with the nature of shut-off, with different ways to play, including rings, cloth pockets, and pot throwers.
Among the hundreds of plays, the most crowded place is the place where the knife is climbed.
The frame is made of bamboo poles the thickness of an adult's arm, one and a half feet high, and two soft ropes hang down to the ground in the middle, and the middle of the soft rope is two feet wide, and every seven or eight inches of distance, a knife is tied to a knife about three feet long, and the edge of the knife is upward, and it glows with a white and cold light under the sunlight. From the place where it sticks to the ground to the top of the bamboo frame, twenty or thirty sharp knives look at the seeping people.
In the winter, the man on the "Knife Mountain" is dressed in a short dress, wearing a half-cut shirt on his upper body, half exposing his strong chest, and his lower body is pants, with trousers rolled up to his knees, revealing hairy calves, and a pair of big feet**.
Not to mention the people of the Ming Dynasty, it was Shen Rui, a two-generation person who had seen all kinds of acrobatics, and he was terrified when he watched this strong man climb the knife mountain.
This acrobatic skill of "climbing the knife mountain" has been passed down to later generations. Although he didn't know what the principle was, Shen Rui knew that those blades were not fake, they were all really sharpened.
If you change to a gentle girl or teenager to "climb the knife mountain", it won't make people so suspenseful. But this seven-foot man, a tower-like lump, looks at the weight is really not light, this step by step, people's hearts follow up and down, for fear that if he is not careful, his feet will be separated in half by a sharp blade......
