Chapter 106: No Rules, No Circle

A song of sideburns and pine songs, which became famous because Liu Ruyan sang at the Oiran Contest, has long been spread throughout Hangzhou and beyond through the mouth of artists and courtesans. Whether it is the Qinlou Chu Pavilion, or the Goolan Tile, from the literati to the common people, everyone has learned this song and song, and they always like to hum a few words in private.

Poetry is often written by literati to express their feelings, the original author's state of mind at that time, and what he really wants to express, it is actually difficult for others to conduct a comprehensive dissection, and can only be understood through the words themselves.

That is, what more people can see is only a literal meaning. After all, the Han culture is broad and profound, and it can usually only be understood, not spoken.

As a result, in addition to those scholars and literati who really understand poetry, more people can only understand the surface. Although they have also listened to the official version of the commentary, it is still difficult to understand the true meaning of this poem from that few words, and prefer to understand it as-

The spring breeze smiled at the top brand of the building, Liu Ruyan's heart belonged, and he was in love with Li Zhongqing, a talented man in Hangzhou, but Li Qian didn't look down on her, and she had a marriage contract, so he gave her such a poem that clarified that personnel was no longer reasonable, and clearly told her that we can't go back, you see that the moon in the sky is still as bright as it was then, but the person who looks at the moon (referring to the two of us) is no longer like then------

Therefore, this poem is recognized by more people as an excuse for a negative man to seek a breakup, that is, even the sadness and sadness revealed between the lines, as well as the faint helplessness, make the public take it for granted that this is a description of the woman's state of mind, otherwise why would Liu Ruyan be in a bad state before? And after playing and singing this song that day, why did he lose his temper in public?

No way, gossip stories and peach-colored anecdotes are the topics that the public is talking about. Most people express deep sympathy and understanding for the heroine in the story, as well as the resentment that arises after being abandoned by the negative man.

And for the "Li Shimei" who ruthlessly abandoned Liu Ruyan, everyone issued a strong moral condemnation and contempt------ who made him say that Liu Ruyan was a vulgar fan?

Okay, after eating and wiping it clean, you will be ruthless? On the other hand, it is all the fault of the moon, and you are too moving to say that the moonlight is too beautiful?

It's so irresponsible!

is a good poem, but it is misunderstood into another version, to blame, it can only be blamed on Li Qian for writing this poem at the wrong time and occasion, that is, even the object was chosen wrong------

Not to mention how Li Qian, who was also shot while lying down, felt about it, in short, Nalan Rongruo's coffin cover was a little uncontrollable------ oh no, Brother Nalan hadn't been born yet!"

"Meet as promised, after dusk. In the season, people are sick and drunk, pear blossoms are cut on the ground, and the east wind is thin all night------"

"Cover the silver screen, hang the green sleeves. Where to blow the flute, the pulse is slightly teasing------"

"The intestines are broken and the moon is bright and red cardamom, the moon is like that time, and the people are like that time?"

The carriage passed through the streets, and in the hook fence not far away, a few ethereal piano songs were intermittently heard, accompanied by the light and gentle sound of the courtesan, faintly into the carriage.

There is a master and a servant in the car, all of whom are women dressed as men.

Hearing those words and songs in her ears, Xiaolan couldn't help but pout, "Miss, uncle, this is too much!" casually wrote such a poem for that Liu Ruyan, and it made such a fuss, where did you put your unmarried lady? The one surnamed Liu is also, relying on a bit of Pu Liu's posture to arouse people's sympathy, and he is clearly moaning without illness! ”

When Lin Qiuyun heard this, she only glanced at her lightly and did not answer.

"Miss, why aren't you in a hurry at all!" Seeing her reaction, Xiaolan couldn't help but stroke her forehead and said urgently: "If this continues, your status as the Li family's main palace will not be guaranteed!" ”

"Don't always open your mouth to a 'uncle' and close your mouth to a 'main palace', you haven't even caught a glimpse of the eight characters, so early no one will give you extra money." Lin Qiuyun said angrily: "What's the use of you being in a hurry here?" ”

"How can I be in a hurry?"

Xiaolan was unconvinced: "Aren't people also trying to figure out a way for you, Miss?" Besides, ------" The words stopped abruptly, she secretly glanced at Lin Qiuyun's face with a weak heart, and changed her words: "Besides, I don't have as many books as you read, Miss, and what an idea." ”

Lin Qiuyun smiled and flicked her forehead with her green jade fingers, her eyes widened, and she feigned anger: "Don't think I don't know, say!" What happened to the paper kite thread break that day? ”

"Uh------" Xiaolan said hesitantly, "------ what else can it be?" That's it! ”

"Huh?" Lin Qiuyun raised her eyebrows.

"It's just ------ it's too windy, and the line itself is broken!" Xiaolan was still arguing for herself.

"You girl, you dare to lie to me!" Lin Qiuyun snorted: "So, why didn't you fly a kite and ran away to your cousin's new house, and fortunately broke the line and fell into the courtyard of the Li family?" ”

"This ------" Xiaolan lowered her head and secretly stuck out her tongue before raising her head and looking at her pitifully, "Miss, just spare me this time!" ”

"Hmph, a girl who makes her own opinions, after so many years, she doesn't even understand a rule?"

Lin Qiuyun was slightly annoyed and said: "A good lyric song, let your paper kite go, but it will become the self-pity of a deep resentful woman------ if this spreads, won't people give me the reputation of a 'jealous woman'?" They will say that the daughter of the Lin family has not passed the door yet, as if she is the wife of the Li family, and she will have ------ in the future."

Hearing this, Xiaolan lowered her head and pouted secretly, and muttered in a low voice: "Hmph, what kind of jealous woman is not jealous of the reputation of a woman, I don't think you care, it's not that you are worried that your aunt will follow her with the reputation of 'strict wife', and let people outside laugh at ------"

"What do you say?!!"

"Yikes!" Xiaolan was taken aback, and hurriedly smiled: "Xiaolan is saying, Miss, you are really virtuous and virtuous, and my uncle married you is also his convincing, I am afraid that when I sleep at night, I will wake up with a smile in my dreams!" ”

Lin Qiuyun glanced at her, and she was glad to be used for this little sycophant.

Gossiping all the way, the car soon came to the east end of Hefang Street, and the speed slowed down slowly, and the handlebar skillfully drove the mules and horses pulling the cart, turned the front of the car, and dragged the frame behind him into the alley.

When he came to the back door of Lin's house as usual, a figure appeared at the door in front of him, which made him startled suddenly, and he hurriedly stopped the car with a sudden brake.

"Lin Si, how did you do it!" Xiaolan's dissatisfied voice came from inside the carriage, and reprimanded: "This is shocked, what should I do if I fall Miss again?" ”

"Sister Xiaolan------"

The coachman can be her father at the age of her, but he still calls him 'sister', which shows that the Lin family's rules in this regard are also quite strict. He looked at the master of the family in front of him nervously, lowered his voice and said, "The master is back------"

"Yikes!"

Xiaolan in the carriage exclaimed, and then quickly lifted the curtain and jumped out of the car first. She first saluted Lin Beiji, who had a straight face in front of her, and then carried Lin Qiuyun out of the car, and then cautiously lowered her head and followed behind her young lady.

"Daddy," came to the door, Xiaolan called the master first, Lin Qiuyun also bowed respectfully, and then straightened up and asked, "When did you come back?" ”

Lin Beiji just glared at her fiercely, and then looked at Xiaolan and said, "You have repeatedly asked Miss to go out privately, and go down to get a family law!" ”

"Master spare your life!" Xiaolan knelt on the ground and cried: "Xiaolan swears, she will never dare to ------ again"

"Daddy!" Lin Qiuyun also spoke out to defend herself, "It's my idea to go out privately, what are you doing to punish her for being such a subordinate?" It's better to spare her this time. ”

Lin Beiji turned his gaze to her again, and reprimanded in a deep voice: "Hmph! Do you still have the face to say it in front of me? Where have you learned the rules? Come with me! After saying that, he turned around and walked briskly in the direction of the lobby------

There are no rules, there are no rules.

There are indeed a lot of rules and regulations in this era, but when they are actually implemented, they are not so rigid and dogmatic in any aspect.

The so-called strict etiquette is more often seriously demonized by later generations, in fact, there are not no gentry families who eat ancient times, and there are indeed a lot of rotten Confucians at this time, but not all scholarly families are like this.

For example, Li Jinglun, the head of the Li family, although he adheres to Confucian rules, has his own ruler in his heart, knowing when to be more truthful and when to turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye. Although he said that he wanted to sever the father-son relationship with Li Qian, no one would believe that he would really do this.

Not to mention that the relationship between father and son is difficult to give up, Li Qian's high school jinshi alone is enough to glorify his ancestors, and he Li Jinglun is not stupid, how could he do such a stupid thing as severing the father-son relationship and letting Li Qian bear the charge of unfilial piety?

As for Lin Beiji, he is not a "saint disciple".

In many cases, he was more shrewd than the cunning businessmen who were most despised by the most well-read. The previous plan to openly violate the marriage contract of the Lin and Li families, and choose another son-in-law who rides the dragon is a good proof of this.

Therefore, in the so-called "family style rules", Lin Beiji actually adopts double standards.

He can openly repent of his marriage, but he does not allow his daughter to go out to "seem to be a lover", which is a typical example of only allowing the state officials to set fires, and not allowing the people to light lamps.

In the lobby of the Li family, Lin Beiji held his hands behind his back, standing quietly at the top of the door, the head of the family was full of style, and what was shown at this moment was completely a strict style of celebrities and gentlemen.

After Lin Qiuyun entered the door, she knelt quietly below without saying a word.

This kind of scene of father-daughter dispute, people don't dare to run to see the excitement casually, they can only stand in the yard, tiptoe from a distance, but let a spotted bamboo curtain block the view, and can only guess the development of the plot according to the movement coming from inside.

Helplessly, there was no sound in the hall, and it was as quiet as a pool of stagnant water.
