Chapter 158: A Woman Has a Ghost in Her Heart

Catholicism says that people are sinful, Buddhists say that people have karma, and as the saying goes, you have a ghost in your heart.

Ai Mei Niang has a ghost in her heart, when her sister married Zheng Liancheng, Lao Zheng at that time was still Xiao Zheng, he was really a handsome little official, informed and interesting, and there was no shortage of food and drink at home. At that time, Ai Mei Niang was not married, every time she went to her brother-in-law's house to play, the people in the market, there were not so many taboos, and she often stayed at her brother-in-law's house.

At that time, Ai Mei Niang was also twelve years old, in Fusang may not be married, the girl is precocious, this is vaguely understood, I saw my sister and brother-in-law intimacy, I knew it was wrong, but I looked outside the window for half an hour, it was really crispy and soft, and I couldn't move my steps, my skirt was wet and wet, and my face was red like blood.

This was not until she married Wang Jue, which got a little better, the little girl's surname, inevitably proud, I married a showman, my sister is better than me, but it is not as good, and then I wondered, how could the husband be done in a moment, but not like my brother-in-law who tossed my sister to death?

The experience of adolescence is extremely critical to the growth of life, she has peeked at her brother-in-law's sister's room, and since then she has been shy and tight, and Wang Jue has no great ability in this, the Wang family is also an official eunuch, and it has been a long time, but she has been stunned to raise Mei Niang, who was born in the market, out of everyone's style, and she really has a graceful bearing.

After so many years, especially when the father-in-law left the Wang family and moved back to his hometown in Ningbo, and Wang Jue married two concubines in order to give birth to a son, which was not helpful.

Buddhism said that the demons in the heart are difficult to go, logically speaking, the ghost that came out of seeing the intimacy of his brother-in-law and sister should disappear with time, but he didn't want to, at this time the Zheng family went south to Ningbo, Ai Meiniang saw her brother-in-law, and was shocked to find that the ghost in her heart not only did not disappear, but grew bigger and bigger...... This is the reason why Ai Mei Niang was always a little weird when the Zheng family first arrived in Ningbo last year.

But we have to say that the so-called deeds do not matter the heart, and there is no perfect person in the world. In general, although Ai Meiniang has a ghost in her heart, she is also struggling to restrain herself and has not done anything, but Lao Zheng is infatuated, and she never forgets her deceased wife, maybe she sees his wife and sister look quite like his deceased wife, and sometimes he is stunned, but if he thinks about climbing into his sister-in-law's bed all day long, this is not.

Let the sister-in-law live in the Zheng family like this, and it is not a matter of seeing the sister-in-law thinking about his wife, but the sister-in-law has a family and a room but lives in her brother-in-law's house so often every day, which is always inappropriate, and this is the reason why others chew their tongues in private.

Therefore, Wang Jue knelt down and begged like this, and he would tear out the ghost in Ai Meiniang's heart bloodily, and suddenly his face changed greatly, he was miserable and colorless, and his hands panicked, and with a bang, he smashed the tea pot to the ground.

Wang Jue's face was splashed with a few drops, and it hurt so hotly that he couldn't care about it for a while, he knew that the lady's surname was soft on the outside and strong on the inside, if he didn't take the hot iron to beg the lady to agree, I was afraid that this matter would suffer, maybe the lady would be angry and take her daughters home together, then, it would be a chicken and egg beating.

The seven fairies live in the Zheng family, although Wang Jue is angry, he doesn't really make a fuss, why? Seven money-losing goods! Selling houses and land can't make up the dowry of seven daughters! And at this time, the custom, if the daughter does not have a dowry, will be laughed at, his Wang family is an official family, although the father who is a Beijing official died, the family is defeated, now Wang Jue is just a show, but the shelf is still there, this daughter has to pay the dowry in accordance with the rules of the eunuch family, not to mention ten boxes and ten lifts, you have eight boxes and eight lifts! Marrying a daughter in the market also pays attention to four boxes and four lifts, and those who are really difficult to do will carry two boxes and two lifts.

These things are actually the daughter's private body, Ming vulgar, if the woman is divorced, or her husband is dead, she can take away her original dowry, and there is no reason to go out of the house, just like Meng Yulou in "Golden Bottle Plum" remarried to Ximen's big official, Huhula took more than 20 dowries to Ximen's house to marry as the third concubine, in terms of the words of later generations, it is really a rich woman's sister.

Therefore, although Wang Jue is annoyed, the Zheng family is equivalent to raising a daughter for him! Have the heart to call the lady back! There is no reason to take his mother back and throw the child there, plus he still has two concubines at home, and he is not a widow, there is always a hot meal to eat, someone to serve, and someone to warm the bed, so he holds back the fire.

And Lao Zheng generously spent the money earned by his son, never thought about this problem, although the Ming Dynasty is open, but after all, it is a patriarchal society, this monarch and ministers, fathers and sons still have to talk about it, to put it bluntly, the money earned by the obedient officials, that is Lao Zheng's, it's as simple as that, no matter how the future generations don't understand, the Ming Dynasty is like this.

Therefore, although Wang Jue was annoyed, he also accepted this, but now everything has changed, Zheng Liancheng has actually become the ruler of the dynasty, shouldn't he Wang Jue take some advantage.

The lady lives in the Zheng family anyway, and there is a lot of meat to do that, and when the time comes, he Wang Jue will be the county respect, the mansion, and he will be powerful and powerful, what kind of beautiful little lady doesn't have it? As long as he beckons, aren't those beautiful little ladies still flocking to him.

can only enjoy a lifetime after enduring it for a while, Wang Jue has made up his mind to sell his wife in exchange for glory and wealth.

"Lady, look at the love for so many years, you can save me!" Wang Jue knelt on the ground and hugged Ai Meiniang's legs, like a drowning man holding straw.

Ai Mei Niang was ashamed, angry, annoyed and hateful, her lips trembled, her mouth was open, and her voice was hoarse, "You, what did you say?" You repeat? ”

When Wang Jue spoke, after all, he still took care of some face, in the end he was also a showman, but once a person has no bottom line, this face naturally can't be taken care of, now that the words have been spoken, what are you afraid of, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "Lady, for the husband is to say, you are wronged, sleep with Zheng Liancheng, and then say some good things for the husband, this year's township test is about to start, he is now a dignified countryman, as long as he opens his mouth, he can't run away for the husband, and then find a big opportunity to release it as an official...... Lady, why not, he and I are brothers-in-law, this piece of soil, who will loosen it is not the same, and there is no less than a piece of meat...... Lady wow! For the sake of the Wang family, you will agree to be a husband! Presumably, my father should be happy to see the prosperity of the Wang family under Jiuquan. ”

Once the literati are shameless, it is really shameless to the extreme, Wang Jueguan is fascinated, and he actually said this in a grand manner.

Ai Meiniang's face was blue, white and purple, her body shook, and she almost fell.

Women, after all, they have a surname, and there are some thoughts in their hearts, as long as they don't do anything out of the ordinary, this is in the Ming Dynasty, that is a woman from a good family who gives a thumbs up, but now Wang Jue actually begged her to do that.

First, she has a ghost in her heart, and there is a panic that the secret has been exposed, and secondly, she can't help but feel cold in her heart for being so shameless with her husband, compared with her brother-in-law, her husband is simply unbearable.

Lao Zheng doesn't care what is wrong with him, his wife has never married, this is a good man in the eyes of a Ming woman, and he is afraid of infecting his son after he has lung disease, so he trapped himself in the abbot of the small wooden building, and he has not seen the sky for several years, this is a good father, as for spending money lavishly, compared with these two advantages, it is really not a big disadvantage, and Wang Jueping said that the show is full of talent, but at the critical time, selling his wife for glory, which is better and which is worse, but it is clear at a glance.

It turns out that he is still not as good as his sister after all. Ai Meiniang's heart was sad, and tears suddenly oozed from her eyes, rolling along her jade cheeks, and for a while, her heart was like ashes.

"Lady, you just promise to be a husband! It should be for the sake of the daughters, and the husband should be released as an official, so that he can get some money back, and the daughters will have face when they marry out, and marrying out as a talented daughter and marrying out as the daughter of a county lord cannot be said the same thing! Lady, lady, ......" Wang Jue hugged Ai Mei Niang's leg tightly and begged, and the topic also turned to the seven daughters, I have to say that this guy knows his wife quite well, and knows that she usually likes children the most, so he uses his daughters as bargaining chips.

Promise him! The brother-in-law is really pitiful, so he thinks that he comforts his brother-in-law for his sister, and presumably his sister's spirit in the sky should also be pleased.

No, this is too shameless, if you publicize it, you will be scolded if you die, not to mention, what should you do with the good officials, what should you do with the daughters.

She was at war with heaven and man in her heart, especially the big ghost who had been raised for more than ten years, jumping out with teeth and claws, under the lights in the room, in the candlelight flickering, she was delicate and uncertain.

Looking at her face, Wang Jue was secretly happy, knowing that there was a door, it was nothing more than being afraid of ugliness, and immediately poured oil on the fire of demagoguery, "As long as the lady does not leave her husband behind, she will live in this house for a long time, and the next person will be gracious, and she will get the kindness of the lady, who dares to say, as for the national abbot, she will definitely be willing, the lady and Rong Niang's sister look like seven points, as long as the lady touches the bed at night, it will definitely be done, when the time comes, just ask the lady to remember my suffering, remember to say some good things in front of the abbot, if you see Concubine De Niangniang in the future, if you read today, promote a handful... …”

As he spoke, he raised his head and looked straight at Ai Mei Niang, I have said everything, and I have covered up the ugliness, it depends on you.

Wang Jue's meaning is, you just have to be happy behind closed doors, reward your subordinates with more money, who dares to chew your tongue, even if you are aunts and nephews and daughters, you are still aunts and mothers, so what's the matter, I have worn all the green hats, and I have lifted the sedan chair for you, don't you still get on the sedan chair?

Hearing her husband say this, Ai Meiniang couldn't help it for a while, raised her hand and gave him a slap, and then, wiping the tears on her face, said confidently: "Wang Ziyu, this slap, are you wronged?" ”

was slapped by his wife, he was not worried but happy, covered his cheeks and said repeatedly: "No, no, this slap lady is good, good ......"

Seeing his ugly state, Ai Mei Niang couldn't help but feel disgusted, she actually lived with such a person for more than ten years, so she stretched out her hand and pointed to the door: "Go out, find a guest room to live in, from now on, you are not allowed to enter my door for half a step." ”

Wang Jue nodded, his face was full of sneers, "The lady has a life, and the students all do it, I just want the lady to be developed and happy, don't forget the relationship between you and me for more than ten years......"

"Get out." Ai Mei Niangjiao scolded, and Wang Jue suddenly crawled and walked away with her head in her hands.

Seeing Wang Jue hugging her head and running away, Ai Mei Niang went over to cover the door, her body was weak, she leaned against the door, leaned against the door and slowly slid down, this beautiful woman couldn't help but hug her knees and whimper and cry.

From this point on, Mei Niang has been grandiose Zhang Luo Zheng Mansion up and down, like a housewife, but the Zheng family is not surprised, like an aunt and grandmother, it may not be possible to seal a lady in the future, this is the aunt of Concubine De's mother-in-law, not to mention anything else, just look at the appearance of the aunt to his own lord before, and then look at the current face, sure enough, people do not seek wealth, wealth and nobility force people to come. However, the two nephews and young masters seem to be quite timid.

Since learning that Uncle Zheng has become a goose egg and an uncle of the country, Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru have been worried, both of them are celebrities, celebrities, what they want is a name, they are afraid that others will say that they are climbing to the powerful, or Zheng Liancheng has the style of Meng taste, and he really put the two in his heart, and took the lead in looking for two people to come over to talk, and he spoke directly, in the past, my Zheng family was just an ordinary family, and you did not give up calling me Uncle Zheng, and now I Zheng Liancheng has become the national master, is it possible, it is not Uncle Zheng? There is no such reason in the world.

Lao Zheng has also seen the world in this era, he has seen Qi Shaobao, he has seen Tuman Khan, in this era when people may not be able to get out of their hometown for hundreds of miles in their lives, it is indeed a character who has seen the world, his words immediately warmed the hearts of the two, and then, Zheng Liancheng said, you are good friends with good officials, I won't hide it from you, two virtuous nephews! Tell me, can you still go to school after the good official says?

The two looked at each other, and said in their hearts that in the two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, there seems to be no national uncle who has been admitted to the Jinshi. Zheng Liancheng smiled bitterly, my daughter! It's really time for this Concubine De to be a mother, sooner or later, her own brother is about to develop herself, she is going to be a concubine of De, isn't this delaying her brother's future.

This is also Zheng Liancheng easy to say, Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru can't talk, fortunately, Zheng Liancheng directly said the following words, two virtuous nephews, I have been looking forward to the good officials for a lifetime, but the road was blocked by his sister, if you think Uncle Zheng is okay, just live at home, and let me make this wish.

The words have come to this, Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru have nothing to say, the two of them knelt on the ground at the moment, and solemnly made a big salute, this is to be a family, Zheng Liancheng was overjoyed, and hurriedly dragged them up, and the servants outside were also funny, so they came up to congratulate the master, congratulate the nephew, and come to ask for a reward, which is not necessarily for reward, but to have a reason to pat the sycophants of their own master and the two nephews, Zheng Liancheng is really a loser, haha laughing, each person will be rewarded with five taels of silver, Shan Chixia next to her couldn't help frowning, oops! Liancheng's means of spending money are really self-taught.

In fact, this kind of behavior, in later generations that also said, later statistics show that all the jackpot winners on the earth almost all squandered their money within five years, it is said that they were not spared, Zheng Liancheng had lung disease and locked himself in a small wooden building for several years, and now his son is developed, his daughter is developed, he squandered it, that is also human nature.

On the day of Qinglong, Mingtang, Jinkui, Tiande, Yutang, and Si Ming Liuxingjun, the angels of the imperial court officially arrived at the Zheng Mansion and passed on the holy decree, and the abbot now lives in Ningbo Taohuawu It has officially spread in the officialdom of Zhejiang, and the people almost instantly know that a few miles away from the Ningbo wharf, in the hundred acres of peach forest, is where the current abbot lives.

At this time, there were rumors, saying that last year's peach forest autumn flowering, sure enough, it was a sign from the sky, and then the palace was promoted to Concubine De, it seems that the family of the prince is favored by God, and then there are faint rumors, saying that the queen is not treated by the emperor today, maybe the queen will be the queen in the future, this rumor is boiling, and soon the world will know.

And the door of the mansion of the lord is not easy to enter, but the door of the father of the seven fairies is easy to enter! For a time, Wang Jue's prince and jade family in Ningbo City, it was really full of traffic, those who had been cold to the Wang family's official eunuchs in the past, seemed to have forgotten the past, and came to visit, the mouth is not you and I have been friends for many years, just the worship received more than 2,000 taels of silver, and the beard of Wang Jue's smile was about to be broken, and the two concubines were also happy to see their teeth and eyes, wishing that Ai Mei Niang would not come back, the two of them happened to be happy with the master at home, as for the daughter, anyway, there is a national uncle to help raise it! can't eat and drink for a short time, and I want to be happier than my mother.

And the dignified Governor Su Song came to the door, but it was very low-key, this Nanzhili should be the governor of the heavens, and Wang Jue was not lightly surprised, but I have to say that this person has strong nerves, and it is not a matter of taking his wife seriously, so he was shocked and got up as if nothing happened, and said that I am also the emperor's uncle now, so what is there to be afraid of.

However, after the two sides met and exchanged pleasantries, when eating tea, Liang Wenru said that every time he heard about the seven fairies of your mansion, he said that everyone was a beautiful woman, a virtuous woman, and a woman, but the official wanted to propose marriage for the dog and marry a family with your mansion.

As soon as he said this, although Wang Jue was frivolous, he didn't dare to agree casually, you know, now the Seven Fairies are raised in the Zheng family! Who knows what the grandfather thinks, he refused politely at the moment, Liang Wenru was not in a hurry, smiled and said that this is a major event in life, and it should be considered for a while, the two exchanged pleasantries, and when Liang Wenru said goodbye, he said, this daughter of your mansion is known as a fairy, how can she ask for a fairy's dowry, the official has prepared some, and Brother Ziyu must not refuse.

He said and left, Wang Jue was in a daze, and there was such a good thing? At this time, an old housekeeper in his family who had followed him when he was a small Beijing official ran in, full of vigor like chicken blood, and his old face was full of red light, young master, young master! Governor Su Song left four boxes, and when the old slave saw it, they were all snow-white silver, full of 10,000 taels, 10,000 taels!

The old man cried as he spoke, whimpering, and said, the old man must be blind to death, and the young master is now promising.

Wang Jue was shocked on the spot, 10,000 taels, lying in the groove, no wonder they all said that the Qing Governor's Mansion for three years, 100,000 snowflakes of silver. For a while, the mind of being an official and a county magistrate became even more intense.

Press this side does not watch, but said that the good official who is in Fusang, the more than 500 military guards are full of energy, and when they walk in a square formation with the rhythm of the drum, the people watching the ceremony are frightened and retreat, and there is a monk in this crowd who said to Amitabha, and can't help but say, this is simply a demon crawling out of the hell of Abi!

As mentioned earlier, Fusang customs call ghosts, that is martial arts, such as what ghost ten rivers, ghost island, ghost Shengmeng, ghost Zhenbi, ghost Yizhong, ghost Shi Manzi, these are all nicknames to boast of martial arts, so this monk said, the surrounding businessmen suddenly nodded again and again, feeling that what the monk said was really reasonable, and couldn't help but be happy, fortunately, we all paid taxes honestly.

In this era, most people really have the meaning of turning back the wheel of history, but his ironclad ship floats on the sea, and Tachibana Michiyuki spares no effort to help him, and he is united in his heart, plus Kyushu Island is a springboard for Fuso to the outside world at this time, whether it is the business of Nanban, the business of Daming, or the business of North Korea, you must pass from Kyushu Island, this is why the good official has to pass through Kyushu Island, Kyushu is the throat of Fuso, and the Goto Islands are the throat of Kyushu, stuck in the Goto Islands, It is to choke the lifeblood of these businessmen, unless they don't want to do business anymore, otherwise they have to give money honestly.

At this time, on the high platform that was temporarily erected, the leader of the Tachibana family ninja army, Wen Dao Right Soldier Wei Juren, came to the side of the obedient official and said in a low voice: "Lord, please look at the monk below." The obedient official knew that he would not be untargeted, and looked in the direction of his finger, and saw a monk in his thirties, wearing a hat like a wandering monk, this monk seemed to be proud of his identity, wearing a very luxurious robe, and this fan was inserted in his waist, so that the obedient official could not help but feel a little nondescript.

He couldn't help frowning, and the right soldier Wei Juren hurriedly whispered: "Lord, this person is Ankokuji Huiqiong, but a Maori retainer, last year Yuchai Zhuqian guarded the flooding of Zhonggaosong Castle, it was this person and Yuchai Zhuqian Shou negotiated, let the city lord Shimizu Soji disembowel, Maori and Yuchai formed an alliance, Yuchai Zhuqian Shou only then freed up his hand to return to Gyeonggi to seek the wise Xiangshou ......"

The obedient official couldn't help but sneer, this dead monk immediately ordered left and right to bring the monk up.
