Chapter 3: Wendi sells fish
Ding Zhuhuang saw that Weizhen got up and saluted, leaned over and saluted back, and then said: "I don't mean to put Mrs. under house arrest, but now the world is more chaotic, if you let Mrs. walk alone, it will also hurt Mrs. If Mrs. wants to leave, she naturally has no choice, and no matter where she goes, she will also send her over. ”
"I hope that Deacon Ding will be able to fulfill his promise. Where else can I go? Naturally, I want to return to my husband's side. Deacon Raudin doesn't have to worry about other matters, as long as you inform your husband, he will naturally take me back. Wei Zhense said.
"Actually, there is one thing that I have been hiding from my wife, that is, I am afraid that my wife will be sad when she finds out. But now, I can only tell the truth. General Wei has been defeated by the Iron and Blood Army, and now his whereabouts are unknown, I am afraid that it is already more than lucky. Ding Zhuhuang thought about it, and finally told Wei Zhen the news of Wei Zeng's defeat.
"Nonsense, the strength of the Iron Blood Army is not as good as before, and the husband still has more than 100,000 elites in his hands, how can he be defeated. The husband has been on the battlefield for a long time, but he is not a mediocre person, your lie is too unsound. I know you've always been interested in me, but if you try to deceive me with such a lie, I won't follow you. If my husband is really defeated and dies, I will also live and die with him. Wei Zhen took a step back and grabbed one of the knives in his hand.
"Madame, don't be excited, I'm just worried that Madame won't be able to bear it, so I haven't told you. Although I have an interest in my wife, I will not be like a common man, and I will not make her obey me. I only hope that my wife can live happily and happily. Ding Zhuhuang hurriedly explained.
"In that case, I won't trouble Deacon Ding. Although the world is big, there will be a place for me; Although the world is chaotic, my heart still persists. Please remove all the guards from this courtyard, and I can leave conveniently. Now that the husband has been defeated. Mr. Qi will not threaten you again, please let me take Mr. Qi with you. Wei Zhen said.
"I'm afraid Mr. Qi won't be able to leave with his wife. After hearing the news of General Wei's defeat, Mr. Qi was a little delirious, sometimes crying, sometimes laughing, and had lost his mind. Ding Zhuhuang replied.
"How so. You take me to Mr. Qi. When Wei Zhen heard Ding Zhuhuang's words, his heart was full of disbelief.
"Please Madame come with me, Mr. Qi is delirious now, please Madame must calm down." After Ding Zhuhuang thought about it for a while, he turned around and walked out of the courtyard.
Wei Zhen listened to what Ding Zhuhuang said, and he was also very frightened in his heart, and he was dizzy in his head, and he couldn't support it. But Wei Zhenqiang held back and followed Ding Zhuhuang to a courtyard.
I saw this courtyard. There were guards all around, and an old man sat in the courtyard, looking very calm, and there was a little bit of madness.
Wei Zhen was relieved, glanced at Ding Zhuhuang, his eyes were full of reproach, and he obviously didn't believe what he just said.
Ding Zhuhuang didn't say much, sighed and stood by the door.
"Mr. Qi. You okay? They all say you're delirious, but I think you're doing well now. Wei Zhen stepped forward and asked.
"It's a brother and sister. You didn't stay in the palace to assist in the affairs of the six palaces, why did you come to Lao Chen. You must know that you are in the back position, you should be cautious, so disrespectful of etiquette, I am afraid that you will leave a handle for others. As it is decided today. The four seas are clear, the people are harmonious, I am naturally very good, brother and sister go back to the palace quickly. Qi Weilun reproached, then laughed.
"The husband is not the emperor. The world has not yet been unified, what does Mr. Qi mean by these words. Wei Zhen said.
"Don't be joking, the virtuous brother has now become a generation of virtuous monarchs, and the world is not going to return to his heart. You can't say that, it's a big rebellion. Qi Weilun said with a cold face.
"What's going on, Mr. Qi, have you really lost your mind?" Wei Zhen looked at Ding Zhuhuang, and his eyes were full of inquiry.
"It's not bad, indulge in illusions, at least be at peace. Sometimes Mr. Qi would suddenly wake up, and then he would scold us, and he would cry bitterly, and the soldiers guarding the door couldn't bear to watch it. The scars on his body were made by himself, and if the guards hadn't discovered them in time, Mr. Qi would have been dead. Ding Zhuhuang said.
"It seems that everything is true, my husband is no longer here, so what's the point of me living." Weizhen was dizzy for a while, his body was also shaking, and he was about to walk out of the yard with staggering steps.
Ding Zhuhuang wanted to step forward to help, but was pushed away by Weizhen. Looking at the dazzling sunset in the distance, it became blurry little by little, and finally turned into darkness, and Wei Zhen finally couldn't hold it anymore and fell to the ground.
Wei Zeng couldn't hear anything, couldn't see anything, and the last remaining intuition was only to feel being picked up.
"Brother Wei, I don't want to be separated from you." Weizhen said unconsciously.
In the early winter, the weather was cold, but the sea did not become peaceful because of the coming cold. The Yaodong army was entrenched in the land of Xuhuai in Yanbei, and the Yushan Mountain Road was not opened, so Siqinghai became the supply line of the Yaodong army. The Jiangnan Navy Division, cruising above the Siqing Sea, waited for an opportunity to attack Yaodong's transport ships. The Yaodong Naval Division paraded and defended, and conflicts from time to time were inevitable. The broken sail, fluttering with the current, was washed up on the west shore of Siqing Sea.
A pair of jade hands, picked up a piece of broken sail, looked at it twice, and threw it away.
"The sign of the Jiangnan people, it seems that there is a war on the Siqing Sea again. But it has nothing to do with me. Wen Di raised his eyebrows and said, just looking at the few small fish in his hand, Wen Di's eyebrows wrinkled again, and said: "It seems that it is still a little related, they fought and beat the fish away." I don't know how much the fish will sell for, but if I don't have any money, I'll be hungry. ”
Over the years, Wendi has been on the shore of Siqing Sea, relying on a little half-baked fishing skills, barely living. In the past few years, because of Liu Hexin's death and the departure of his sweetheart, Wen Di was not less sad. But she was open-minded by nature, and she was soon relieved. The quiet life is too quiet, so quiet that time passes quietly, and the people who live in it are completely unaware.
Wen Di had nothing to do, so he went to Siqing Sea to catch two fish, and he was very lucky, and he could always sell them for a good price. Wendi didn't have the habit of saving money, so he practiced swordsmanship and rode around on a red horse. The days are also considered to be free. It's just that during the New Year's holidays, Wendi doesn't want to go out, looking at the outside world full of lights and family joy, Wendi really can't stand it.
Only this time, looking at these dry and dry little fish. Wendi was really worried, she didn't believe that someone would spend money to buy it.
"Miss Wendi is here again, I've been waiting for you for a long time, I don't know what fish Miss Wendi brought this time?" A treacherous fishmer immediately smiled when he saw Wen Di coming.
"Have you been waiting for me? With so many fishermen, you won't be short of fish to buy. Wendy asked.
"Ordinary fish, of course, there is no shortage. But Miss Wendy is such a good fisherman. There is always a shortage of good fish caught. I'd love to have a few more customers like Miss Wendy. The fishmerchant said.
"Really? I'm just scratching around. But this time it's a disappointment, you see, just a few dry little fish. Wendy said embarrassedly.
"If you catch it casually, you can catch such a good fish, so you have to be serious, but you can pay it back. This fish ......" the fish merchant was smiling and flattering Wendi. When he saw the few small fish that Wen Di had raised, his face was stiff. But he said with a face full of surprise: "This fish is really good, it is a rare and precious species, although it is only such a small few, but the value is higher than any mountain and sea delicacies." I will give fifty taels of silver. ”
"These little fish are very ordinary, you see there's a basket over there. You're not fooling me, are you? Wen Di replied with a look of disbelief.
"Miss Wendi is a holy fisherman. How can the fish you catch be comparable to those caught by others? I still think it's a little bit of fifty taels of silver! The fish merchant said with a straight face.
"You don't have any intentions. Although this girl is as beautiful as a flower, she is not within your reach. You want to buy me off with such a little money, but you have too many ideas. I'd better sell it to someone else. Wen Di raised his head, turned around and was about to leave.
"Miss Wendi if she thinks it's less. I can still increase the price. Miss Wendy, don't go. The fishmerchant panicked.
"Ignore you, this girl won't be fooled." Wen Di didn't look back, and he was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, the fishmonger chased after Wen Di and blocked in front of Wen Di, not letting Wen Di leave, crying and shouting that he wanted to buy fish.
Wendy was angry and pressed one hand on the sword.
Unexpectedly, the fish merchant fell to the ground, snorted, and said with tears: "This fish is related to my net worth, Miss Wendi will not sell it to me, and our whole family will be finished." The girl seems to be a prosaic fish, but it is a cure for diseases, without which our whole family is finished. ”
"Anyone in your family is sick and wants to use my fish to heal him? Don't cry, in this public, I still feel ashamed if you don't feel ashamed. Wendi was also a little panicked when he saw the people around him getting more and more around.
"Yes, our whole family is going to use this fish for healing." The fishmerchant cried.
"Can't I sell it to you? Don't make a fuss, can you? Wendy threw the fish to the fishmerchant, took a bag of silver, and hurried away.
The fishmerger took a few small fish, ignored the surprised eyes of the others, and came into an alley. A few yellow-clothed men in the alley, waiting for the fishmer to arrive.
"Good job, I don't think Miss Wendi will worry about food and clothing this winter. Five draws of one, this is sixty taels of silver, take it. A man in yellow laughed and threw a bag of silver to the fishmer.
"Thank you for the reward, this Wendi girl is becoming more and more vigilant, and I can't do this well. With such a fuss today, I'm afraid Miss Wendi will never come again, so please ask a few uncles to find someone else. The fishmerchant said.
"You're clever and things are doing well. In the future, you will come, you can rest assured, we have the money. The man in yellow said nonchalantly.
"But if Miss Wendi is suspicious and doesn't sell me fish, then you can't blame me for asking a few masters." The fishmer said with a sad face.
"If you take our money, you naturally have to do things for us. If you can't do it, you will naturally be punished. Go back and think about how to buy the fish next time, and if something happens, you can take care of it yourself. The man in yellow said with a cold face, turned around and left with the others.
The fish merchant regretted in his heart, he shouldn't have ordered a few people for a few money. He couldn't afford to mess with these people, so he had to go home and think about how to buy the fish from Wendi next time.
After Wendi sold the fish, he wandered around the market, ready to buy some daily necessities to take home. While strolling around, he saw a man talking under a tree, and several voices came, and Wendi's attention was all attracted.
"It is said that when General Wei conquered Guanbei, the cult in Guanbei actually summoned the demons underground to help in the war. Those demons, one by one copper-headed iron arms, have infinite strength, and with one punch, dozens of pounds of boulders are also turned into pieces, which is really terrifying. But where can it be difficult to get General Wei ...... all this?"
Listening to the storyteller blowing Wei Zeng into a god, a person holding a two-hundred-pound iron rod to annihilate all the 500,000 cultists in Guanbei, Wen Di stood aside and was just funny. But in the laughter, Wen Di was concerned about the bits and pieces about Wei Zeng.
In the cheers of others, Wen Di approached the storyteller, only to see that the storyteller's case was spread out in a book, and the catalog wrote Wei Zeng's deeds for more than ten years, from the defeat of the Jingnan army to the sweep of Mobei. Wen Di thought about Wei Zeng's appearance in the storyteller's mouth, and couldn't help but laugh.
After the storyteller said, "I want to know what happened next, and listen to the next breakdown", Wen Dicheng asked: "If you continue to talk, you have to wait until the next time, how torturous it is." Wendy said as he tossed a piece of silver over.
Originally, the storyteller wanted to refuse, but seeing that the silver was as big as five taels, he said that he couldn't earn so much even if he wrote in the first half of the year. immediately greeted him with a smile and asked Wen Di to name which paragraph he wanted to say.
"What you said was a few years ago, and if you have something fresh, I can give you more money." Wendi flipped through the script and said.
"It's not that there is nothing new, it's just that it's fresh, I don't dare to talk about it. In this book, it turned out that there were also the Iron and Blood Army and the Outwitting Five-Color Army, but they were all deleted because they didn't want to offend those in power. It turned out that when General Wei was here, everything was fine, but now that General Wei has been defeated, he is talking nonsense, but he will suffer disaster. The storyteller sighed.
"You said that Wei Zeng has been defeated, when did this happen, you shouldn't be talking nonsense." Wendy was surprised.
"This was just a few months ago, and now that Stone Wind City has changed hands, General Wei's era has become a thing of the past." The storyteller replied.
"Then do you know where Wei Zeng is now? He wouldn't be dead. Wendy was horrified, just a question and answer.
"After General Wei's defeat, his whereabouts have been unknown, and he may no longer be alive. All I know is that his last battle was on the border east of the river. The storyteller replied.
"He's not going to die, it's impossible, I'm going to find him." Wendy couldn't believe it, turned around and left.
"Girl, you don't have that paragraph yet?"
"If you don't listen, you can keep the money." Wen Di didn't look back and disappeared into the crowd. (To be continued.) )
