A three-in, three-out house on the outskirts of Anqing, which Wu Jintang has just purchased, is a lush creeper on the wall of the blue brick grinding joints, and the yard is not big, but it is clean and elegant. Before you enter the yard, you can smell the fragrant fragrance of osmanthus flowers. Many of the Wu family's industries depend on Chai Dongliang, and it is already a situation where both prosperity and loss are lost. In order to facilitate contact, he simply bought a house in Anqing, and lived in Anqing for at least 20 days a month, and Wu Meiqi also moved from Wuhu and lived with him.

"Sister, you open the door, it's all mine, you can eat something anyway, such a crying method will break your body!" Wu Jintang pleaded bitterly.

Wu Meiqi's door was placed on a red lacquered wooden plate, and the food on it did not move at all, and Wu Meiqi's low sobs could be heard through the door.

"Sister, it's been two whole days, you'll be hungry if you don't eat rice, and you can't stop eating no matter what! It's all my brother who deserves to die, isn't my brother compensating you??? Maggie, open the door! ”

Wu Meiqi locked herself in the house, no one saw her, even the maid was thrown out, she just cried vigorously, scared Wu Jintang half to death, no matter how she said good things, she didn't care.

"Miss, if you open the door, you can drink ginseng soup even if you don't eat, how can you get this without eating or drinking!" The nurse stood outside the door and wept.

Wu Jintang's regretful intestines are blue, he can't wait to slap himself, he has nothing to do with his sister to bring anything! If the marriage between her sister and Chai Dongliang is messed up, with her strong surname and deep love for Chai Dongliang, it will be strange if nothing big happens!

"Good sister, you open the door, if you have any grievances, you tell me, my brother will definitely satisfy you!" Wu Jintang beat his chest and paused.

After a long time, the nurse suddenly exclaimed: "It's broken, why is there no movement?" ”

Wu Jintang suddenly raised his throat in his heart: "Sister, don't do stupid things!" With that, he kicked the door hard. The door was kicked, but it didn't open.

He took a few steps back, slammed his shoulder, and the door was finally knocked open, and he rushed in, only to see Wu Meiqi sitting on the bed stupidly without saying a word, her hair was messy, her skin had become pale, and her eyes were red like peaches. I didn't have the slightest reaction when I saw him come in, so I just sat stupidly.

"Good sister, what's wrong with you? If you feel uncomfortable, you cry, but don't hold it back like this! When Wu Jintang saw his sister's appearance, tears fell like rain.

Wu Meiqi still didn't laugh, cry or speak, as if the three souls and seven spirits had left her body, and her spirit had been drained.

"Miss, what's wrong with your hand?" The nurse suddenly exclaimed.

Wu Jintang found out that his sister's hand was holding the quilt corner, which was covered with blood. He pulled her left hand out in horror, only to see that the fingers were covered in blood.

"How did you get that?" Wu Jintang took a closer look and found that there were also blood stains on the corners of Wu Meiqi's mouth.

Then he hurriedly pulled Wu Meiqi's right hand out of the quilt, but saw her hand clenched into a fist and clenched it tightly. A corner of a white silk handkerchief peeks out from between your fingers.

Wu Jintang pulled violently, and Si Pa was snatched by him, but Wu Meiqi still didn't react, as if she was a walking corpse.

When I opened the silk handkerchief, there was a shocking bloodstain on it.

Above is a poem, a poem by Li Shangyin, a love poem written with a bite of his finger and blood written with his heart.

The east wind is drizzling, and there is light thunder outside the Furong pond.

The golden toad latched on the lock and burned incense, the jade tiger drew the silk and returned to the Jia family's peep curtain Han Pengshao, and the concubine left the pillow Wei Wang Caichun heart Mo Gonghua contended, an inch of lovesickness and an inch of ash.

In addition to the red blood on the silk handkerchief, there are also speckled tear stains, for a young girl, the lover of her first love is the whole of her life, once the world is broken, it has lost its meaning.

"An inch of acacia and an inch of gray"!

Wu Jintang felt that his heart was broken, and he slapped himself repeatedly: "I'm damned, I'm such a fucking bastard!" ”

??? Dividing line ???

Chai Dongliang walked out of the Military Advisory Mansion in a green shirt, without bringing a single guard, and without alarming anyone. drove Wu Meiqi away in a rough way, which made him regret it a little. But women interfering in politics, which is the thing he hates the most, always feels like eating flies. No matter how cute a girl is, once she is involved in the entanglement of interests, it will make people feel boring. The reason why he has always refused to tell Wu Meiqi and Mo Xiaolian about their marriage is that he feels that Jiang Huaijun and the Anhui Chamber of Commerce are standing behind the two of them, and he always feels that emotional matters are mixed with material things, which is cheesy??? Although Chai Dongliang knows better than anyone that material is the guarantee of feelings, he still fantasizes about crystal-like and transparent feelings.

It's really ridiculous, I married Wu Meiqi, no matter what we think about each other, the taste of military and economic marriage is full, but Chai Dongliang just can't get rid of this childish fantasy, maybe he has lived in a materialistic world for too long, and he will always look forward to something pure.

Walking out of the gate of the Military Advisory Mansion, it was getting dark outside, and Chai Dongliang was wandering aimlessly on the street. Anqing is already much more prosperous than when he first became the governor. There are many more magnificent shops on the street, and the people's clothes are cleaner than half a year ago, and many people's clothes are new. Although Anhui does not enforce the cutting of braids, there is not a single person with braids on the street.

The Qing Dynasty has completely lost its play, what braids do the common people still have? At the beginning, he refused to cut his braids because he was afraid of the resurgence of the Qing Dynasty, and when the time came, there would be another "hair without head".

Chai Dongliang walked to Nancheng, but found that red lanterns had been hung here, and it turned out that he had walked to Willow Lane, the largest flower street in Anqing. The girl in a fancy dress stood at the window and waved to passers-by, and the ghost slave solicited customers on the street, and when they saw a person wearing bright and decent clothes, they dragged them into the store. The old and yellow prostitutes hid in the corners of the streets and alleys, secretly greeting passers-by. The walls on the side of the road are full of small advertisements such as "Bao Zhi Wu Lin White Turbidity" and "Ancestral Famous Healing Flower Willow".

Chai Dongliang stopped a hundred meters away from Huajie and didn't dare to go inside, if people knew that the Jianghuai Patrol Envoy and the Anhui Governor visited the Jiyuan, it would be a big joke. What's more, the name of this year really doesn't fit his aesthetics, if Mr. Sora Aoi crosses over, he might as well communicate with her about "artistic life".

Chai Dongliang's stomach suddenly "gurgled", and he remembered that he was busy at noon and hadn't eaten yet!

He found a restaurant that looked fairly clean and walked in, and Xiao Er immediately greeted him enthusiastically: "This master, how many of you are?" ”

Chai Dongliang looked at the environment inside and said, "It's just me." ”

"Are you staying at a hotel or eating? We have clean guest rooms in the hotel, if you eat, our master is a good hand at red and white cases, and there are private rooms upstairs, if you want to call a bureau, the red girl on this street, the small ones are familiar, you just need to name it, I will send it for you! ”

Chai Dongliang looked at the water sign hanging on the wall, which was basically Huaiyang cuisine, which was quite in line with his taste, and then said: "Find me a table by the window on the second floor, and I'll have a meal." ”

Xiao Er saw that he was only one person, and he refused to call the bureau, he was secretly depressed in his heart, looking at the clothes of this master was also extraordinary, and the chain of the gold watch hung down on his chest, he originally thought that he was a disciple who was looking for flowers and asking willows, but it turned out to be just a starving ghost.

Chai Dongliang sat down by the window on the second floor, and the shopkeeper wiped the table, and then asked flatly, "This master, what do you eat?" ”

"What are your specialties here?"

"What you want to eat, there's nothing you can't do in a small shop!" The tone of the shopkeeper is quite big.

Chai Dongliang couldn't help laughing: "Get me a live fish to make a soup, and then fry a lamb loin to eat, don't stick one, do you have live crabs?" If you have one, get three or five. Half a catty of old wine??? That's all. ”

With that, he threw him a silver dollar: "Go and prepare, hurry up." ”

The shopkeeper took the silver dollar: "This master, the five cents of the wine and food you ordered is enough, and the rest is for you to save on the cabinet and wait for you to come back to eat, or will I look for you now?" ”

Chai Dongliang smiled: "If you have more, you will be rewarded!" ”

The shopkeeper was overjoyed, and shouted at the top of his voice: "The uncle on the second floor will reward five corners of silver dollars!" ”

The guys downstairs and the shopkeeper said in unison: "Thank you for this master's reward!" ”

The sound was too loud, which startled Chai Dongliang, but the character of the two people in this shop is not bad, and they know that they share the reward with others according to the rules, and they don't take advantage of the fact that others are not paying attention.

After a while, Chai Dongliang asked for the wine and food to be delivered, the shopkeeper diligently poured him full of wine, and respectfully asked him what he needed, Chai Dongliang shook his head, and the shopkeeper ran down the wooden stairs with a bang.

Chai Dongliang was indeed a little hungry, and felt that the taste of the food was particularly fragrant, so he ate two large bowls of rice in one go. Wait until you have your stomach full before you start drinking. After three or five cups, the sky is basically completely dark, and this flower street is more lively.

Chai Dongliang found a line of words on the wall across the street: One dime find two. He didn't understand what it meant, so he called the shopkeeper up. Xiao Er smiled and said, "You are a nobleman, that's not where you go!" Chai Dongliang was puzzled: "What place?" I'm asking you what you mean by finding two. ”

The shopkeeper said mysteriously: "This is a place for pulling foreign cars on the street, and the coolies who are transported at the wharf are a dime, but now a group of Jiangxi people have come, and the market has been depressed, and you can do it once for eight cents!" ”

Chai Dongliang suddenly realized that the disaster in Jiangxi had affected Anhui, but the unlucky ones were always the lowest people, and the price of prostitutes was lowered by two cents. But those long three and two halls with bright lights still get two or three silver dollars for a difference.

Eight cents can sell his body, and this person is really miserable!

"Xiao Er, serve a few good dishes to Lao Tzu, and then beat three catties of old wine!"

There was an arrogant shout from downstairs!
