Chapter 4 Add oil and vinegar
On the edge of the door, in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror, Li Guolou was whistling in his mouth, humming Schubert's serenade complacently, and he was still looking in the mirror with bells and whistles, taking pity on himself. In the courtyard, Uncle Wang had already talked about the conversation between Li Guolou and Qian Shuiping.
"You don't know! Sister-in-law Qian wants to entrust Niu Niu and Niu Niu to the fake foreign devil, the fake foreign devil said, as long as Niu Niu and Niu Niu enter the Mary Church School, he will come out of the tuition, and the two of them will talk about things behind closed doors, thinking that they can be unaware of the ghosts, no one hears, I am a good ear, what can I hide from me. Betraying the Qing Empire, betraying the ancestors, what else to sell, you know. Sister-in-law Qian also asked the fake foreign devil to beat her husband to death, those two little rabbit cubs, they didn't say a word on the side, they were all cheap! ”
Uncle Wang didn't dare to talk nonsense in the courtyard, and there was still room for imagination, so that people could stop at the point.
The others listened excitedly, their eyes showed their imaginary pictures, watching the money screen go in and out, and the round temperament exuded by their bodies made people have impulsive desires.
The landlord Wu Cuilian was not happy, she still had a trace of hope for Li Guolou, that is, Li Guolou could take a fancy to her little girl, isn't it a family.
Wu Cuilian deliberately shouted loudly: "Wang Kuaizui, who is the cheapest?" You say it, manly man, why are you talking bad about people, don't you have a ringing throat? Sing it. ”
Uncle Wang was like a thief, and fled back to the west room where he lived, but he hadn't entered the room yet. A sole plate had hit Uncle Wang's left cheek, and Honggu thought that she was like a god, and scolded: "Wang Kuaizui, you dare to speak ill of the old lady in front of outsiders, who supported you in the first place!" Now in this home, I also hold up half the sky, don't come back if you have a kind. ”
Honggu is still doing a secret prostitute, her appearance is liked by some people, her monthly income is more than that of Uncle Wang's storytelling, and the family's income is held by herself, she is the tigress of the family. She has some money, but because of her face problem, she wants to save money to keep it, and she is unwilling to buy a house here, and she will move out of Hongchang Hutong in the future.
Uncle Wang was hit on the sole of his shoe, and he grinned in pain, and hurriedly confessed: "It's not about you, Honggu, you misunderstood me, I am more wronged than Dou E, I will go into the house with you." ”
He pushed Honggu's shoulders and walked into the room, and hit the sole of his shoe in vain, and this account should also be counted on the adulterer Li Guolou and ** Qian Shuiping.
"Wang Lianying, you go out first, I have something to talk to your mother." Ten-year-old "Wang cub" Wang Lianying was kicked out of the room where they lived by Wang Shutong, like his father, Wang cub also stuck to the door panel, eavesdropping on his parents' speech, a father and son, their whole family is the famous family of the in Hongchang Hutong.
The landlord, Wu Cuilian, shouted at the four tenants: "You guys be honest with me, don't be cheap, otherwise I won't rent to you." ”
The shaver Zhou Fortune has a wrinkled face, a weathered face, more than fifty years old, a widower for several years, and his son live a tight life, and he has fantasies about the landlord Wu Cuilian, that is, his dream lover, as the name suggests, is the kind that will react when he sees Wu's sister-in-law in his dream.
Zhou Fugui came to Wu Cuilian to smell the breath emanating from the mature lady, piled up the smile on his face, and said: "Sister-in-law Wu, who dares not to listen to your words, don't worry!" Zhou Fugui assured his ancestors that he had become a mouthless gourd, and he made a fortune in a muffled voice. ”
Wu Cuilian frowned, took a step back, and shouted: "The shaver flashed aside, look at your virtue, and make a fortune in a muffled voice." Do you think that now is still when the Holy Grandfather enters the customs, the shaver can still have a knife in his waist, and he can burp while flashing. ”
Wu Cuilian didn't cut down the little people in the market, and ignored the other people in the courtyard. But people are courteous to her, which shows that she has charm and beauty, and she is suitable to fight with Wang Kuaizui, and she won in half a round, and she is in a good mood this morning. Wu Cuilian also wants to take Li Guolou's pulse, although today is not the day to collect rent, but it's okay, doesn't it seem lively.
Wu Cuilian took out a large flower scarf from her sleeve, twisted her hips and waist, and stepped into the threshold of the south room. Wu Cuilian is most proud of her small feet, wearing bow shoes, tops and skirts, dressed properly. The woman with bound feet has a unique charm, which makes countless literati and artists linger for tenderness. She also wanted to remarry, but she didn't see the right person, so she procrastinated and spent time. Wu Cuilian, who is nearly forty, is still dressed like a thirty-year-old **.
Li Guolou saw someone stepping into the door from the mirror, and he didn't even make a sound, so he was startled, thinking it was the leper dog.
Li Guolou hurriedly turned around and said, "Sister-in-law Wu, when you enter the door, you will be scared to death." ”
Wu Cuilian took a sip and said angrily: "Uncle Li, what's the drop, even I have to bark when I enter the door, the eldest sister is a dog." Look at your little appearance, what are you going to do, look at the demon mirror, take an endless picture. Miss the little girl, don't you? Tell my sister-in-law, where is the girl? I'll propose it for you. Don't tell your sister-in-law that those two men are your best friend. ”
Li Guolou was so angry that he almost swung his fist, how can people drop now! The good brothers hooked shoulders with each other, and were said by their neighbors to be the two fathers he raised outside. If this is transmitted back to her hometown, the eldest sister will be the first to come, and the Jingshi will not want to stay in the future.
Li Guolou shouted: "Sister-in-law Wu, what's wrong with you today, two keys around your neck, I have fun with my little brother, I have flowers on my face." ”
Wu Cuilian saw that Li Guolou was angry, and she was happy in her heart, she had to be idle, and she only saw Li Guolou in the yard feeling comfortable, and she could say a few more words to the little white face, and she was happy and happy after her eyes.
Wu Cuilian glared at Li Guolou viciously and shouted, "Fake foreign devils, I can't afford to joke." People scold you, I'll help you, people spit on you, who came out for you, people treat you like this, you put your hot face on people's cold butts, don't hum or pretend to be ghosts. My sister-in-law Wu is so good to you, you fell on my head and turned up a somersault cloud! ”
Now Li Guolou really had no choice, and when he heard his cloud and mountain fog, he hurriedly surrendered his hand and said, "Sister-in-law Wu, my aunt and grandmother." Don't look for fake foreign devils to be happy, I'm waiting for someone, I'm really waiting for someone, I'll invite you to chat tomorrow. ”
Who is Li Guolou waiting for? Sister-in-law Wu counted with her toes, and she could also calculate it, turning around in the three rooms without any scruples, and looking at what furniture Li Guolou had added? (In fact, she could see the furniture clearly when it entered the yard.) )
Wu Cuilian said as she walked: "Uncle Li, if you want to buy something, buy a little better, look at the things you bought, the colors don't match, some are still old goods, the guests are here, let them see these things." You don't have a face, I still have a face. ”
Li Guolou replied: "Sister-in-law Wu, you gave me an empty room, how can I have time to go shopping." When I saw someone setting up a stall outside, I bought what I was short of. There are good and bad things, and the most expensive thing in it can buy you a room, but you don't have the vision. ”
"Really!" Wu Cuilou came to his senses, and began to turn again, Li Guolou snickered in his heart, he sent away a poor person with a word. He didn't want to get close to the landlord Wu's sister-in-law, she was a charter wife, and she had nothing else to do every day, and a bag of melon seeds could be eaten for a day. But he is an aspiring young man, how can he ruin his reputation.
Sister-in-law Wu finally saw a decent thing from the miscellaneous house, pressed her hand on the big bed, shook it desperately, and said with a smile: "Little nasty embryo, it's this bed, right?" How many people do you want to sleep in such a big bed? ”
Li Guolou shuddered, could it be that when he bought this red sandalwood carved bed, he had such dirty thoughts in his heart? No way! When pigs fly! He has received an orthodox education in the British Empire, and he can only have one wife and countless lovers. Bah! The British are not good goods, they like to seduce other people's wives, and they definitely don't learn the philosophy of the British devils. In his dictionary, wives and lovers have to be shoulder-to-shoulder, and only if there are more people like him, the Qing Empire will be saved.
Li Guolou hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law Wu, is there a door on your mouth, I took medicine one morning, and all of it sprayed on my head, I didn't offend you." ”
Wu Cuilian felt aggrieved, she thought that she had given Li Guolou a piece of tile to cover her body, and she was kind and affectionate to Li Guolou, why did she fake foreign devils, in this courtyard, only treat Sister-in-law Qian's family well? Everyone is a "sister-in-law", where is the gap?
Wu Cuilian's silver teeth clenched and hissed: "Fake foreign devil, I can see all the things you did for the Qian family this morning, and I know what small actions you have made." Why didn't you think of my house? ”
Li Guolou was scared to death, a big widow and a little girl in the Wu family, he couldn't afford to mess with him. As long as it is contaminated with the body, it will not be able to get rid of the relationship for the rest of your life.
Li Guolou admonished: "Sister-in-law Wu, we are just a tenant and landlord relationship, we must not participate in others, your lifelong events, as long as I see the right one, I will definitely bring it back to you." Nothing else, I've already had a marriage contract. Bye-bye! I found a bright place and simmered honey. ”
Li Guolou couldn't bear the enthusiasm of Sister-in-law Wu, so he still kept a good distance from others, and didn't want to chat with Sister-in-law Wu anymore. Li Guolou raised his head and didn't look at the people in the courtyard, and he didn't care about Wang Xiaozi's hatred, he didn't owe anyone, only others were ungrateful. To be a generous rich man, you must also be cautious, he can't afford to lose anymore, where is the hope in life?
Li Guolou stepped out of the threshold of the courtyard, and there was a wonderful life path outside, waiting for him to take the first step.
