Chapter 67: What is Bitterness?

Vermilion walls, glazed tiles, carved railings and jade masonry, resplendent gold, Su Yu walked and looked around, feeling that the most luxurious words ever spoken in his mind were used to describe the mansion of the old man Changhe, and it should also be on the scene.

The old man of the long crane wore gold and silver, and carried a cane inlaid with precious stones, leading Su Yu and Xiao Yi into the house slowly.

Or until now, Xiao Yi is the most proud disciple of Moli, and he is also the best disciple of the old man Changhe, so when he saw Xiao Yilai, the old man Changhe smiled, so he let them into the house.

Slowly, when I got to the chair and sat down, the girl who served immediately took the tea and handed it to the front, Su Yu took it and took a look, the tea soup was clear and clear, and after taking a sip, it was fresh and refreshing, and the lips and teeth were fragrant, and I couldn't help but nod.

The old man squinted at Su Yu, then looked at Xiao Yi's eyes, and asked with a smile: "Girl, this is the new tea buds that were just picked this year, and they are very fresh." ”

Su Yu nodded, "It's really good tea." ”

Xiao Yi smiled slightly on the side, and was just about to open his mouth to introduce, when he heard the old man Changhe wave his hand and said meaningfully: "Girl, you are Xiao Xiaozi's daughter-in-law." ”

Su Yu's face turned red, nodded, and asked curiously, "How do you know?" ”

The old man Changhe laughed, his full and rich face was a little like the Buddha Maitreya in the West, and then he turned the jade wrench in his hand and said proudly: "I also experienced a few love affairs when I was young, so from your eyes, you can see a few points, unlike my cousin, who has been dead all his life, only hanging on a tree in someone else's house, saying that he is affectionate, in fact, he is too rigid, if he has half of Xiao Xiaozi's flowery eyes, the tree may not become someone else's." ”

When Su Yu heard this, he had a rough idea in his heart, it should be that the old head of the Xuan faction liked a girl when he was young, and in the end, the girl was married to someone else, so the old head fell into love all his life, and he lived alone until now.

What's more important is that Su Yu listened to the meaning of the old man who grew a crane, that is, Xiao Yi's wife was different from his dedicated grandfather, and he had a pair of flowery eyes, and he might have found other girls to be his daughter-in-law besides her.

Thinking like this, Su Yu's face sank, and the hand holding Feng Ming instantly became a little tight, if that was the case, she might draw her sword and chop Xiao Yi's house.

Xiao Yi's face was also stiff on the side, and he quickly took over the words and said, "Master, I only have Yu'er in my heart now." ”

The old man Changhe looked at Su Yu and nodded with satisfaction, "This girl is really good, her bones are strange, and she is full of aura." ”

After that, the old man beckoned and said to Su Yu: "Girl, come here, I'll take a good look at you." ”

When Su Yu heard the words "Bone Qingqi", he was immediately a little excited, because since ancient times, most of the masters in the opera book have used this word to praise their apprentices, so as soon as Su Yu saw that there was a doorway, he hurried over and sat down next to the old man Changhe.

The old man Changhe seemed to be a little dazzled, squinted his eyes and looked at Su Yu for a moment, and exclaimed: "This girl is amazing, she has the talent to support the dragon and the phoenix, and she will have the opportunity to soar to a high position for nine days in the future." ”

When Su Yu heard this, he was about to be happy, but when he saw the old man who was a crane, he shook his head again, and sighed: "But you have a bumpy life and a bad fate, and you have to taste the hardships of the world!" ”

The suffering of the world? Su Yu smiled, didn't care, patted his chest and said: "I was born a child of a peasant family, I have never enjoyed glory and wealth, and I have been beaten and starved since I was a child, so I can still eat hardship." ”

When the old man Changhe heard this, he shook his head again and said, "The so-called suffering, what is suffering?" Some people think that poverty is suffering, some people think that illness is suffering, some people think that separation is suffering, some people think that loneliness is suffering, and the suffering you endure must be the suffering in your heart before you can call it suffering. ”

Su Yu didn't seem to understand, nodded, and saw that the greeting was almost over, so he turned his head to look at Xiao Yi and gave him a look that made him understand.

Xiao Yi received the hint, and he didn't do anything to foreshadow, and said directly: "Master, where is your light skill cheat?" ”

The old man took a sip of tea, and did not respond directly to Xiao Yi's words, but opened his eyes vigorously and looked at the box pulled from the carriage.

Xiao Yi's eyes were sharp and his thoughts were lively, and he immediately said: "Master, I came in a hurry this time, and I didn't prepare anything else, thinking that it was time to cut new clothes in the spring, so I brought you a box of colored satin with gold edge and embroidery." ”

When the old man heard this, his eyes lit up.

"But that old guy Tianxuan's private box?"

Xiao Yi nodded.

When the old man Changhe heard this, his stomach trembled with a smile, and then he said with a cane: "I asked the old guy who slammed the door many times, but he refused to give it, but you are still well-behaved and know my mind." ”

Xiao Yi hooked the corners of his lips and smiled, and said in a well-behaved tone: "That cheat ......"

"Yes, yes, yes!" The old man nodded again and again, scratched his head and thought for a while, "There is a box of silver in the treasury that has worn out the bottom, and the book should be under the box now." With that, the old man commanded his attendants to look for it in the storehouse.

After a while, the attendant really came with a book, Su Yu couldn't hold it back, and hurriedly went up to take it, holding it in his hand and wanting to watch it carefully.

At this look, Su Yu was suddenly a little speechless, only to see that the four corners of the book seemed to have been bitten by mice, pitted, moving the pages, and falling debris, but fortunately, the book was opened, although the text recording the content was a little old, but it was not missing, in addition to not being very beautiful, it did not affect the use.

Su Yule thanked him, and then carefully put the book away.

A few people exchanged pleasantries for a while, and the old man Changhe directly sent Su Yu and Xiao Yi to the door, although the enthusiasm was felt, but seeing that it was time to eat, he didn't even leave them to eat before leaving.

got into the carriage, Su Yu thought about the whole box of gorgeous colored satin that he pulled when he came, and now he has worked hard for half a day, and when he goes back, it has become a broken book that has been gnawed by rats, and then recalls the appearance of the old man who is greedy for money, Su Yu is a little puzzled, according to the age of the person, and the things he has experienced, he should have let go of fame and fortune, why did he live to the twilight of his life, but he fell into the abyss of money and interests?

The carriage was moving, as if it had walked into a street, the sound of shouting and shouting, singing and laughing, kept coming into the carriage, Su Yu was surprised, the place they came to was just an ordinary town, why did the people here not only not suffer from the scourge of bandits, but also live so comfortably and richly?

Lifting the curtain, Su Yu looked outside, and saw that the people here were indeed much better than other places, at least there was less sadness and despair in the troubled times.

Xiao Yi looked at Su Yu and proposed, "Hungry or not, let's go down for a walk." ”

Su Yu happily agreed, stopped the carriage and jumped down, running towards the crowded place.

Squeezed into the crowd, Su Yu saw that the layers of people were surrounded by a young man who pinched candy, although the young man didn't look very old, but the craftsmanship of this candy pinching man was really good, the soft sugar mud flipped back and forth in his hands, forming a variety of different forms, there were well-behaved and cute little white rabbits, fierce and domineering tigers, and a squinting, cunning and playful fox.

After a while, Su Yu watched the young man quickly pinch out a little pig with a big belly and a round waist, and his short tail curled up in an interesting arc, and even brought the little pig's greedy and lazy demeanor to a bit.

The children around watched with bated breath, and as soon as the little pig was finished and hung up with bamboo skewers, they all began to slap their palms and jump up and cheer.

Su Yu also clapped his hands, and then pointed to the round little pig and said to Xiao Yi: "Look at it, how much it looks like you." ”

Xiao Yi smiled, reached out and took the little pig down and handed it to Su Yu, and then stretched out his hand and took the playful and cunning fox in his hand, and said in front of Su Yu: "This is really more like you." ”

Su Yu leaned over and lowered his head, and while Xiao Yi was not paying attention, he bit half of the fox's head, and laughed: "It's not like it." ”

In the crowd, Xiao Yi looked at Su Yu with a treacherous appearance, the tenderness in his eyes gradually turned into a bottomless sea, and then put the fox in his hand in his mouth and bit it gently.

Walking in the lively crowd for a while, Su Yu looked at the six roads, listened in all directions, and roughly heard some doorways, so he squeezed to Xiao Yi's side, stood on tiptoe and leaned into his ear and said: "I listen, the people here all admire a person named He Lao very much, and I don't know what kind of hero this He Lao is." ”

Xiao Yi listened, nodded knowingly, and said, "That old He, we have already met you." ”

Su Yu's eyes rolled, and he suddenly realized, "Old man Changhe!" ”

Xiao Yi nodded: "With me, I should call my ancestor." ”

Su Yu scratched his head and admired in his heart: "It turns out that the ancestor collects money, not only for himself. ”

Xiao Yi agreed, nodded and said: "When the ancestor was young, he fought the sword in the world, and he did not seek fame in his life, and as he grew older, he found that the people were healthy and wealthy, not relying on righteousness, but on the gold and silver things that he had always looked down on. The ancestor also said that when he entered the world, he knew that his strength was small, and what he could protect was only the place between square inches, and if the world was in chaos and fell under the nest, this town might not be able to get it thoroughly. ”

Su Yu sighed, and sighed that the old man Changhe, who was greedy for money, was very right, even though what he showed in his words was the helplessness of his own powerlessness, but that state of mind had transcended too many people who thought they were heroes.
