Chapter 37: Life History

Sure enough, as Chen Xian expected, the two of them glanced at each other, and then followed step by step as Mi Yu retreated, and one of them even took out a short knife from his arms.

Seeing that the two people in front of him looked quite fierce, Mi Yu felt even more frightened, and the more he retreated, the more nervous he became, and finally he couldn't even hold the sword, his hand shook, and the sword fell to the ground with a "bang".

The two refugees looked down at the exquisite long sword, and were hesitating, when they heard Mi Yu shout in a restrained voice: "My sword is forged by Master Tan Yu in the capital with his own hands, embedded with Zhu Yu, and is worth a thousand taels!" At this point, his voice weakened, and at last he said in a consultative tone, "You have taken this sword, and you will ...... Retreat! ”

Chen Xianzheng was helping Xiao Hai to board the car, and when he heard it, he was immediately annoyed: This Laoshi Zimi Yun is so rich! Immediately, I thought: Anyway, there are soldiers guarding the gate not far from the city gate, if it is changed in the wilderness, this blatant display of wealth will probably be stripped naked by the red-eyed refugees on the spot.

Sure enough, the two sturdy refugees were also afraid of causing trouble in front of the city gate, so they leaned over and picked up their long swords and turned around and ran silently......

"Chen Lang ......" Lu Xiaochai, who was sitting in the carriage, hung his head and looked self-reproachful.

Chen Xian thought that she was still frightened of the little episode of the scene just now, so she smiled and said: "Don't worry, Xiao Hai, the husband is not guilty, these two mobs have taken valuable swords, I'm afraid they can't keep it." ”

Lu Xiaochai shook his head lightly, and said lightly: "Xiaochai saw the little girl and thought of herself. ”

"Oh?" Chen Xian had never heard her mention anything about her life experience, but only once Feng Niang mentioned that she was picked up by herself.

"That was the eighth year of Xuande...... I vividly remember that the torrential rain lasted for more than a month, the fields were flooded, the lake was flooded, my real surname was Yue, my family was a Songjiang fisherman, and I lost my livelihood due to the flood, my parents and brother took me to flee, and walked with many people, walking, walking, we were separated from my parents, and my brother continued to take me west with the crowd ......"

"I met a sister with slender eyes who smiled and smiled, she gave my brother a small ingot of silver, and took me into the city kindly, and since then, I have lived in Huancai Building, renamed Lu Xiaochai......"

When she said this, although her eyes were red, she still raised the corners of her mouth at Chen Xian reluctantly: "Isn't the concubine too sentimental." ”

Chen Xian listened to her silently, and reached out to caress her cheek dotingly: "I will accompany you to Songjiang in the future." ”

When the two carriages slowly stopped in front of the Huancai Building, Chen Xian saw Mi Yun, who was saying goodbye to Xiangyun, with a sad look, so he smiled and said politely: "Brother Mi is a hero today to save the United States and fight with a sword, and he is not stingy with money and money to help the victims, so I admire it very much, how about going up to the private room on the second floor to have a drink together?" ”

Chen Xian didn't really mean to invite him to drink, he just said casually, just casually, just like he said casually hundreds of years later: "I'll invite you to dinner another day." ”

But this Mi Yu hesitated for a moment, and said suddenly: "Okay! ”

What a good! Brother, I still have to listen to the little hairpin and chat with her! And you're so rich, and you have the face to drink from my poor scholar!

Chen Xian scolded this local tyrant in his heart, but when he said everything, he could only make a gesture of please, and pretended to be generous: "Brother Mi, please!" ”

Chen Xian and needless to mention, Mi Yu is now a big celebrity in the Huancai Building, since a few days ago he liked to pick the flowers and branches of Xiangyun, he spent a lot of money in the Huancai Building, just like a high-roller from the north, generous, and the reward also has a heavy two taels of silver.

At this time, as soon as Xiao Er saw these two come in, he hurriedly came over with a smiling face, and led the four of them to the westernmost Accord on the second floor, and served the drinks and snacks one by one without waiting for instructions.

"Brother Mi is really generous!" The nouveau riche Chen Xian looked at Mi Yu casually and threw the silver to the little two small ingots, and couldn't help but speak.

"Oh!" Mi Yu responded absentmindedly, pinched the wine glass, arched his hand and said, "Brother Chen, please!" Little hairpin girl, please! Xiangyun girl, please! ”

This person attaches great importance to etiquette, even if he doesn't know what he is thinking at this time, he does not forget to bow his head to everyone politely, for fear of offending someone because of the lack of etiquette.

The four of them drank a glass of water and wine, and the piano player in the small pavilion on the north side of the room stroked the piano with his hands, and the sound of the piano was like a clear spring in a deep valley, and then the man, who was hiding behind the veil, began to sing.

......When the singer sang in a clear tone to "Know what is the matter with tears", Mi Yun, who had been silent, sighed and said: "Brother Chen, I don't know what you thought when you made this. ”

"But ......," he said, his expression darkened even more: "I can really only be a melancholy guest of life, and I have no pursuit at all." ”

"Nothing more?" Chen Xianqi, isn't this a wealthy man, seeing that Wanguan's family property is already destined to belong to someone else, he has no pursuit? But even so, wouldn't it be happy to get hundreds of acres of fertile land, and fight cocks and walk dogs every day? Looking at his mentality, it seems that he just wants to run away and become a monk!

Thinking of this, he took the initiative to touch the wine cup in Mi Yun's hand and said, "There is more than one thing to ask for in life!" High-ranking officials are also pursuing for the country and the people, fighting swords and rivers and lakes, and being happy and enmity, immersing themselves in pen and ink writings, and even returning to the countryside to enjoy the mountains and rivers is also a pursuit! ”

Mi Yu was stunned when he heard Chen Xian's words, and then drank all the wine in the cup, and sighed: "Brother Chen doesn't know, others can have a choice, but I don't have any choice at all. ”

Chen Xian obviously disdained his postponement, so he smiled contemptuously and said: "I'm afraid Your Excellency is not without a choice, because you have drawn a frame for yourself in your heart, trapped yourself in it, and can you get out of it by drawing the ground like this?" ”

Mi Yun was stunned, but he didn't know what to say, but he still felt in his heart that the people in the world were extremely popular ministers, and even the rich and rival countries could still ask for something, and he seemed to have nothing to pursue.

Or, to live, to live well, is your own pursuit, right?

Thinking of this, he didn't want to say more on this topic, so he changed the topic and said, "Brother Chen, since you are good at poetry and songs, why do you rarely hear that you have a great work?" ”

"Bard against it, little Doyle." Chen Xian waved his hand, and said secretly in his heart: Although copying poems is cool, I always feel sorry for these famous Confucians of later generations! Besides, what are the benefits of being a talent? Xie Jin, who was famous all over the world during the Yongle period alone, even if he relied on the unprecedented article attainments to become a cabinet favorite, but what happened later?

"Lord Huang, this Xiangyun girl is really already entertaining guests, how ......about the slave family arrange for you to sing the song" Song Jinfeng's nervous excuse came from outside the door.
