Chapter 15: The Sudden Disappearance of the Little Dragon Species
In the vast world, there are too many things that cannot be explained, too many mysteries that cannot be solved, and many strange things and miracles that cannot be imagined.
At that time in the Tang Dynasty, there was a place called Jingzhou, every time I sent the Jinshi exam, every time no one reached the first, the world called this place "Heavenly Wilderness", saying that there was no meaning of civilization since ancient times. Later, there was a person named Liu Tuo, who was admitted to the Jinshi and broke this situation, which was called "unprecedented".
Today, 1,300 years later, the Dragon Mansion is also "unprecedented".
Zhao Shuxian married Long Zaitian for several years and did not give birth, and Long Zaitian had an extramarital affair with Jiang Cuilian, which made Zhao Shuxian suspicious - Zhao Shuxian said that Long Zaitian gave Jiang Cuilian all the essence, so she had no birth, and she expelled Jiang Cuilian from the Long Mansion.
Originally, Zhao Shuxian's words were pure nonsense; However, after Zhao Shuxian drove Jiang Cuilian out of the Dragon Mansion, it only took a few months for her belly to grow! Zhao Shuxian became a prophecy, swaggering around with a big belly, and when she met people, she said that Jiang Cuilian was gone, and the essence of Long Zaitian was given to her, and she was pregnant; And also said that he would definitely give birth to a fat boy.
Master Long, Mrs. Long, and Long Zaitian, seeing that Zhao Shuxian's belly was really big, they didn't care what she was talking about, they all waited happily to hug their grandson.
In 1902 (the twenty-eighth year of Guangxu), at the first three o'clock of June, Zhao Shuxian gave birth! But she didn't give birth to a fat boy, but she gave birth to a girl.
Although Zhao Shuxian gave birth to a baby girl, after all, it is the true blood of the Long family, so the family still regards this child as a "dragon son and phoenix chick". After some discussion, everyone gave this little baby a nice name - Long Fengyi.
Zhao Shuxian gave birth to a girl, and Mrs. Long remembered the "dragon species" born by Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian; And he brought the dragon in heaven to speak.
"Oh my God! Today is the first day of June, and Zhao Shuxian gave birth to a girl. The child you and Cuilian had is also the first day of June, so today is the baby's first birthday, and I don't know where this child is now. Do you take the time to go to Dawangzhuang to find Jiang Mu, it is best to find a way to meet Jiang Cuilian; Ask them where the child is and how is he doing? It would be nice if you could see the kids! β
"Yes! Boy, go now! "Coincidentally, Young Master Long Zaitian also misses his children in his heart.
Young Master Long Zaitian came out of his mother's room, went to the street to buy some gifts, and took a rickshaw to Dawangzhuang to find Jiang's mother.
"Auntie! Hello! When he arrived at the Jiang family, Young Master Long Zaitian greeted Jiang's mother and presented gifts.
"Oops! It's Young Master Long! Come on! What are you buying so many things for? Have a seat! Have a seat! "Since the day Jiang Cuilian got married, Young Master Long Zaitian saw Jiang Cuilian get married, and waited for Mother Jiang to ask where the child was, but Mother Jiang never said it explicitly, Young Master Long Zaitian has never come to Jiang's house again.
"Auntie! Today is the baby's first birthday, and I would like to discuss with Cuilian about choosing a name for the baby. Young Master Long Zaitian didn't dare to say in front of Jiang's mother that he wanted to see the child's affairs, so he used "naming the baby" as an excuse.
"I also know that today is the baby's first birthday, but ...... But Cuilian is in Wanjia! β
"Can you ask Wenhua to call her back?"
"This ...... All right! Just let Wenhua call her back. Jiang's mother thinks that as a father, he has not seen his child for more than half a year, and when the baby is one year old, he wants to name the baby with Cuilian, which is human nature, and it is too unkind not to agree. So he asked his son Jiang Wenhua to go to Wanjia on the grounds of "mother's illness" and asked Jiang Cuilian to come back quickly.
Jiang Cuilian heard her younger brother say that her mother was sick, so she made a special trip to invite her, thinking that her mother was very sick. said to the housekeeper Ding Changfa (Wan Fuxiang was in the store), and took a rickshaw back to Dawangzhuang with Wenhua with a big belly. Halfway through, Jiang Wenhua explained the situation to his sister: Today is the baby's first birthday, and Young Master Long must name the baby with you; Only then did the mother "fake illness invite someone".
"This Young Master Dragon!" Jiang Cuilian said with a smile.
As soon as Jiang Cuilian arrived home, she saw that her mother and Young Master Long Zaitian were talking, so she stepped forward to say hello: "Mom! Master Long! Hello! β
"Cuilian! Today is the baby's first birthday, and Master Long wants to discuss with you a name for the baby; So let you come back a bit. Jiang Mu explained while leading Jiang Wenhua to the East House.
"Young Master! Are you really here today to name your baby? "Frost, the smart Jiang Cuilian, estimated that Young Master Long Zaitian didn't just look for her to name the baby.
"Cuilian! You...... Are you pregnant? Young Master Long Zaitian saw Jiang Cuilian with a big belly and did not answer Jiang Cuilian's question; But he asked such a question sourly.
"Hmmm! Is Zhao Shuxian pregnant? Jiang Cuilian knew that Young Master Long Zaitian was "jealous" of her pregnancy, so she put down her question first and asked if Zhao Shuxian was pregnant.
"Hey...... She gave birth to a girl in the early hours of this morning. Young Master Long Zaitian replied in frustration.
"Female ...... It's the same for girls. Jiang Cuilian comforted.
"You...... You're definitely going to have a baby this pregnancy. β
"Maybe that's for sure. Well! You haven't answered me yet, do you really want to name your baby today? β
"Cuilian! The child's name should also be given; But what I miss most now is wanting to see our children; Can you tell me where our children are now? Will you let me see him? When Young Master Long Zaitian said this, tears were already glistening in his beautiful eyes.
"The kid is fine now! Don't ask! Mother Jiang had repeatedly warned Jiang Cuilian that she must not let Young Master Long Zaitian watch the child, so as not to make things out of control.
"Cuilian! What kind of family are our children in? Will you just let me see him? I beg you! Young Master Long Zaitian said, and really bowed to Jiang Cuilian.
"This ......" Jiang Cuilian didn't dare to agree, and she couldn't bear not to agree.
"Cuilian! We're hiding it from your mother, so take me to see our children!" Seeing Jiang Cuilian's hesitation, Young Master Long Zaitian estimated that it was related to Jiang's mother's "secrecy thoughts", so he said.
"Hey...... All right! But you have to make sure that no matter what you see, you are not allowed to get excited, and you are not allowed to reveal your identity and mine, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. Jiang Cuilian was afraid that Young Master Long Zaitian would not be able to control his feelings when he saw that his "dragon species" was in a poor family, and would make abnormal words and deeds, causing unimaginable consequences.
"Good! I assure you, no matter what I see, I will not be thrilled and will not reveal your identity. In order to see his child, Young Master Long Zaitian made a reassurance to Jiang Cuilian.
"Then I'll go and talk to my mother, and I'll say we'll go to the city and find a fortune teller to name the baby."
"Okay! Just do as you say. β
Jiang Cuilian went to the East House to explain to her mother that she would go to the city with Young Master Long, find a fortune teller to come up with a good name for the baby, and she might not come back for dinner. Mother Jiang told Jiang Cuilian not to tell Young Master Long where the baby was, so she agreed to let them go!
Young Master Long Zaitian followed Jiang Cuilian to the nursery in the western suburbs, and Long Zaitian asked Jiang Cuilian in shock:
"Cuilian! Our children are raised in such a poor family? β
"Whoa! Master Long! You're excited, aren't you? Here's what happened: My mother and I were going to give the baby to my uncle to raise, but my uncle wouldn't accept it. Because the wedding date is imminent, I have no choice but to send the baby to Dawang Temple at the beginning of last year, and I want to be taken back by someone who is destined to adopt it. But that day, the temple burned to ruins. My mother had to put the baby inside the unburned mountain gate, but no one noticed; Thanks to the third master and grandmother Lei of this nursery, they saw and took it in. My mother and I came with me to see it, and we couldn't bear to let the baby be in such a poor home; But there is no other way but this. I hope Master Long will forgive me! β
"Hey...... Shh......h
Young Master Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian entered the nursery, pretending to look at flowers and buy flowers, and then talked with Lei Sanye and Lei Sangrandma in the nursery.
"Grandpa! Grandma! Why did you grow so many flowers and plants? Young Master Long Zaitian asked kindly.
"Not much! Not much! How can we not have more in order to make ends meet? Are you two here to buy flowers? Lei Sanye saw a man and a woman coming together, and they were all dressed very carefully, thinking that they were husband and wife, so he asked.
"No...... It's not ......" Jiang Cuilian wanted to explain that she and Long Zaitian were not husband and wife.
"Yes, yes, yes! We're here to buy flowers. In the three "yes" of the young master of the dragon, it means to buy flowers; There are also elements of him and Jiang Cuilian being husband and wife.
"Then you two can choose at will!" Lei Sanye glanced at Jiang Cuilian, who denied the relationship between husband and wife, and went to work on his own!
Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian were "choosing flowers", and suddenly they heard the cry of a child in the house. I saw Grandma Lei San hurriedly throw away the work in her hand and hurriedly ran into the house. Young Master Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian, who were "buying flowers", also followed closely behind and entered the hut.
"Oops! My little boy woke up! Do you want to pee? Hungry? Grandma Lei San said while gently picking up the baby from the rocking car, putting the baby on her laps, and spreading the baby's legs, the baby urinated for a long time.
"Oh! The little obedient peeed! You must be hungry! I'll get you rice cereal. Grandma Lei San gently put the baby into the rocking car again, and then went to heat the rice cereal - judging from Grandma Lei San's expression just now and these words and actions, it can be seen that Grandma Lei San (and Lei Sanye) loves the baby very much - this gives some comfort to Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian, who are reluctant to suffer in the cold door.
"Old man! How do you have such a small baby? "Young Master Long Zaitian intends to have a family affair with Grandma Lei San.
"Hey...... Don't mention it! This child's life is miserable! Last year, he was thrown in the burned down Dawang Temple on the first day of the lunar month, and the old man and I picked him up. The boy was about five or six months old! Grandma Lei San answered Young Master Long's question while feeding the baby rice cereal.
"Oh! It turned out to be such a situation. β
"That'...... Did the kid have anything on him at the time? "Jiang Cuilian, who wants Young Master Long Zaitian to promise not to be excited, is excited first!
"The kid was carrying a ...... Hey! What do you mean by that, you ask? Are you ......" Jiang Cuilian's inappropriate questioning aroused the suspicion of Grandma Lei San.
"It's not! No! It doesn't mean anything else; I wonder if the child's biological father and mother put anything on the child at that time, and what kind of thing was put on it, so that you can see what kind of person the child's biological father and mother are. Jiang Cuilian hurriedly defended.
"The child had an emerald gold ring on him, which was tied to the strap that held the diaper in place." The loyal and honest Grandma Lei San told the truth.
"Uh......" Jiang Cuilian exclaimed slightly.
"Oh......" Long Zaitian, the young master heard Jiang Cuilian say on the way that he put an emerald gold ring on the strap of the baby's diaper - the identity of the baby is absolutely true!
"You ......" Jiang Cuilian and Long Zaitian's abnormal words and expressions once again aroused Lei San's grandmother's doubts.
"Oh! We don't have to make small talk, so don't mind. Grandma! I think this child is very beautiful and cute, and I will give this child something, okay? Young Master Long Zaitian said, and without waiting for Grandma Lei San to reply, he took out the "golden dragon" hanging on his neck and put his gloves on the baby's neck.
"No! Cannot! You two are here to buy flowers, how can you be so spoiled? "Grandma Lei San refused to accept things from strangers; But in my heart, I have doubts about these two "flower buyers".
"It's not a waste of money, and we see cute babies in the city who often give away things!" Young Master Long Zaitian said an inappropriate reason.
"Really? Then I will thank you for the baby! Although Grandma Lei San is in a nursery, she also knows the world - no matter how rich a family is, how can there be "seeing cute babies and often giving things"? If it's okay to give one or two silver dollars, how much is it worth to give this "golden dragon"? But Grandma Lei San didn't say much - the couple might have some story with this little baby, or even ...... Then let him go!
"Grandma! He gave the 'golden dragon' to the baby, and I will also send a gold collar to the baby, okay? Jiang Cuilian said, and took out the gold collar that Young Master Long Zaitian had specially brought to the baby in the grove of Yuanbao Mountain last year and put it on the baby's neck.
"This ...... All right! All right! I'll just thank you for the baby! Grandma Lei San was more suspicious of these two "flower buyers", but she knew better in her heart - they must have something to do with the baby - Grandma Lei San didn't seriously refuse!
Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian couldn't help but kiss the baby on the cheek, and then reluctantly left the hut and went outside to "choose flowers".
The two selected two pots of bamboo, and Lei Sanye, who heard that the two had given gold utensils, resolutely refused to accept the money. Young Master Long Zaitian dropped two ingots of silver, and left in a hurry with Jiang Cuilian - this is the compensation and reward given by Young Master Long Zaitian to Lei San Ye and Lei San Grandma, and it can be regarded as the baby's living expenses in the future!
Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian left the nursery, took a rickshaw to the city, and returned to Jiang's house after lunch at the restaurant. Jiang's mother hurriedly asked the fortune teller what name he gave the baby to. Young Master Long and Jiang Cuilian told Jiang's mother what the two had discussed on the road, saying that the fortune teller named the baby Long Miao.
Of the two pots of bamboos bought from the nursery, Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian each took one pot home - the two used this bamboo as a souvenir and a love object, remembering the child called "Long Miao" in the nursery. No one expected that these two pots of verdant and quiet bamboos would cause an explosive farce.
Jiang Cuilian took back a pot of bamboo, which aroused the suspicion of her husband Wan Fuxiang.
"Cuilian! Listen to Steward Ding, your mother is sick! When you go back to visit your sick mother, how can you still have the leisure to buy any bamboo? β
"My mother was not seriously ill, but she had a headache and fever, probably caused by a cold; It's already much better after taking cold medicine! I bought a pot of bamboo on the way back, is there anything wrong with that? "Jiang Cuilian didn't buy Wan Fuxiang's account at all.
"There's nothing wrong with that, I'm just asking; It's also about your pregnancy. "In the past, Jiang Cuilian accepted the funding of 12 taels of silver from the Wan family in order to bury her father and promised to Wan Fuxiang. Later, Wan Fuxiang was poor, and in turn, Wan Fuxiang begged Jiang Cuilian to marry him; So Wan Fuxiang didn't dare to do anything to Jiang Cuilian. Moreover, Jiang Cuilian was already pregnant with her first child, and Wan Fuxiang didn't dare or wanted to be verbose with Jiang Cuilian, so he hurriedly gave in.
"You have nothing to say, nothing to do; I won't talk to you! Jiang Cuilian said goodbye, and went back to the room!
Long Zaitian brought the pot of Wenzhu to the Dragon Mansion, which also aroused Zhao Shuxian's suspicions.
As soon as Young Master Long Zaitian returned to the Dragon Mansion with Wen Zhu in his arms, Mrs. Long, who had been wandering around the gate, hurriedly stepped forward and asked him:
"Oh my God! Have you seen Jiang Cuilian and the child? β
"See!"
"It's good to see you! More on that later. Hurry up and go to the West Building to see Zhao Shuxian and the children! β
When Young Master Long Zaitian heard this, he hurried to the West Building. Zhao Shuxian roared angrily when she saw him:
"The dragon is in the sky! Where have you been all day? I gave birth today, and you don't care about it? Are you a little girl who thinks I'm born? β
"I went to a friend's for some business, and I came back as soon as I was done! Where is the whole day! β
"Your daughter was just born today and you are still going out, what is so important?"
"The baby has been born safely, you are in a good situation in all aspects, and your mother has taken care of everything! I'm going out to do something, why are you making such a big fuss? β
"What's in your hand?" Zhao Shuxian saw that Long Zaitian was holding a flower pot in Young Master Tian's hand, so she changed the topic and asked.
"I met a flower seller on the street, so I bought a pot of bamboo."
"You met a flower seller on the street, so you bought a pot of bamboo? When have you ever bought something in person? You Wenzhu ......," Zhao Shuxian asked suspiciously.
"Why do you have to take care of everything? I met a flower seller on the street, and I bought a pot of bamboo, so what's wrong? Is this also worth all the fuss you make? Young Master Long Zaitian said angrily, and put Wenzhu in his study.
This time the "Wenzhu Incident", the Long family and the Wan family did not cause much shock. But it is like a poisonous sore that has been covered up temporarily, and it will always erupt in the future!
According to the agreement, Young Master Long Zaitian went to Jiang's house on the first day of June every year, and went to the nursery in the western suburbs with Jiang Cuilian, who returned to her parents' house as agreed, to "buy flowers" - to visit the child named "Long Miao".
Jiang Cuilian, who had a bee waist and fat buttocks, gave birth to a boy in the autumn of the second year (1902) after marrying Wan Fuxiang, named Wan Jinpeng. In the autumn of the third year (1903), another daughter was born, named Markham Yu. In the autumn of the fourth year (1904), another boy was born, named Markham.
Jiang Cuilian returns to her parents' house at the beginning of June every year, when she has a big belly and a round waist. It stands to reason that if you are pregnant, you should rest at home to protect the fetus. But Jiang Cuilian went back to her parents' house with a big belly every year.
Jiang Cuilian went back to her parents' house to visit her sick mother for the first time (the first day of June 1902) with a big belly, but Wan Fuxiang did not take it to heart. On the first day of June 1903, Jiang Cuilian returned to her parents' house with a big belly, which aroused Wan Fuxiang's suspicions. On the first day of June 1904, when Jiang Cuilian returned to her parents' house with a big belly again, Wan Fuxiang, who had been wary, followed Jiang Cuilian from afar - Wan Fuxiang watched Jiang Cuilian enter her parents' house.
Coincidentally, Zhao Shuxian also had suspicions about the dragon going out on the first day of June in the first day of June in 1902 - on the first day of June 1902, Zhao Shuxian gave birth to a dragon and a phoenix, and the dragon was not at home in the sky; On the first day of June 1903, the dragon and the phoenix passed the week, and the dragon was not at home during the day; On the first day of June in 1904, Long Zaitian went out early again - why did Long Zaitian go out on the first day of June every year? It's his daughter's birthday, why is he always not home? He was because of the daughter I gave birth to, and he didn't want to celebrate his birthday with Long Fengyi; Or is there anything more important than a daughter's birthday? Zhao Shuxian, who had been wary for a long time, followed Long Zaitian from afar - Zhao Shuxian followed Long Zaitian to Dawangzhuang and saw Long Zaitian enter a house.
What surprised Zhao Shuxian even more was that after only a while, she saw Jiang Cuilian also enter this family - what kind of family is this family? Why did both of them come to this house?
Wan Fuxiang and Zhao Shuxian were fifty or sixty meters away from the Jiang family, each quietly watching everything in the Jiang family.
"Hey! Are you Jiang Cuilian's husband? Zhao Shuxian saw that Wan Fuxiang, who was probing his brain not far away, was so familiar, so she took the initiative to talk to him.
"Yes! You are...... You're the young grandmother of the Dragon Mansion, right? Wan Fuxiang recognized the questioner as the young grandmother of Longfu who received him when he went to Longfu to find Jiang Cuilian last year, but he didn't know what his name was.
"Exactly! What's your name? β
"My name is Wan Fuxiang. What's the young grandmother's name? β
"My name is Zhao Shuxian. Feed! Who is this family? β
"This family is Jiang Cuilian's maiden family."
"Ahh This is Jiang Cuilian's maiden family? No wonder this dead beast and stinky ** are in! Zhao Shuxian suddenly realized and was stunned.
"Dead beasts and stinking **? Who is the brute? Who is the stinking **? Wan Fuxiang, who came a step too late and didn't see that Long Zaitian had already entered the Jiang family, asked.
"The dead beast is my dead ghost husband Long Zaitian, and the stinky ** is your wife Jiang Cuilian. They both went in! Are they still in contact with each other? Because of her momentary anger, Zhao Shuxian not only scolded Long Zaitian for being a brute, but also said in front of Wan Fuxiang that Wan Fuxiang's wife Jiang Cuilian was stinky.
"Oh! Your dead ghost husband Long Zai Tian also went in? Zhao Shuxian said that Wan Fuxiang's wife Jiang Cuilian is stinky, and Wan Fuxiang also said that Long Zaitian is Zhao Shuxian's "dead ghost husband".
"Yes! Didn't you see the Dead Ghost Dragon entering the sky? Because of the same hatred, Zhao Shuxian and Wan Fuxiang didn't care about each other's insults to their husbands and wives.
"I just came here with Jiang Cuilian, and I didn't see your dead ghost husband Long Zaitian. In this way, they must be related! Wan Fuxiang once suspected that Jiang Cuilian had broken down, but he couldn't be sure, and he didn't know that Jiang Cuilian had something to do with Long Zaitian.
"Humph! This dead beast must have something to do with the stinking **! And it's always been related! Zhao Shuxian originally only suspected that Long Zaitian might have a relationship with Jiang Cuilian, but she couldn't be sure; Now it's almost certain.
"Then you ......"
"Yes! You're coming too......"
The common goal and purpose makes two people who have only met each other feel very close.
Wan Fuxiang and Zhao Shuxian approached each other and were about to go to Jiang's house together to "catch doubles", but they saw Jiang Cuilian and Long Zaitian coming out of Jiang's house together.
Wan Fuxiang and Zhao Shuxian held back the anger in their hearts and followed Jiang Cuilian and Long Zaitian from afarβbut saw the two of them arrive at the nursery in the western suburbs.
After Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian talked and greeted the nursery owner very familiarly, they talked and played with a two- or three-year-old child, and the kind of intimate affection that overflowed made people feel as if they were a family.
"What are they doing at the nursery?" Wan Fuxiang said puzzled.
"Humph! On the first day of June the year before last, this guy brought back a pot of bamboo, maybe he came to this nursery with Jiang Cuilian, a stinky **. β
"What? On the first day of June of the year before last, your dead ghost husband Long Zaitian also brought back a pot of bamboo? My mother-in-law also brought back a pot of bamboos on the first day of June the year before last! This shows that they have been here together at least the year before last! No wonder she comes out on the first day of June every year, it turns out that she has a tryst with her friend! β
"Hmmm! These two guys must have come here every year on the first day of June to have a tryst. β
"Whoa! Who do you say that little kid is? β
"I think that all the little ones may be their illegitimate children."
After some discussion and speculation, Wan Fuxiang and Zhao Shuxian estimated that the two- or three-year-old child was born to Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian.
"This dead beast! This stinks**! It turns out that I have been raising illegitimate children here! I want them to look good today! Zhao Shuxian and Wan Fuxiang were furious, jumped out together, and rushed straight to the nursery.
"The dragon is in the sky! What are you doing here? β
"Jiang Cuilian! What are you doing here? β
"Who's this little brute?"
Wan Fuxiang and Zhao Shuxian looked at Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian angrily.
"What are you doing? What's wrong with us buying flowers? Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian said in unison.
"You're here to buy flowers? Why do you come here every year on the first day of June? Wan Fuxiang and Zhao Shuxian asked in unison.
"Why do you come to buy flowers on the first day of June every year? This is the first time we've been here! "When you see the Buddha, you have to worship, and when you see the official, you have to rely on it! The dragon does not admit it in the sky.
"You're only here for the first time? On the first day of June last year, both of you brought back a pot of bamboo, and you bought it here! Do you still want to deny it? β
"I bought that bamboo on the street!" Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian said at the same time.
"You bought the bamboo on the street? How can it be so coincidental? Did you buy it together on the street? β
"There are a lot of bamboos sold in Jiangzhou! Do you have to buy them together? Long Zaitian asked rhetorically.
"And who is this little brute?" Wan Fuxiang and Zhao Shuxian pointed to the child and asked.
"This is someone's child, how do I know who it is?" Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian argued.
"How can an old couple have such a small beast at such an old age?"
"It's their business, you ask them?"
"This child is my daughter's son, our grandson, what's the matter? Why do you scold him? "Grandma Lei San, who had a good impression of Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian, actually stood up and gave false testimony.
"......" The four of them have nothing to say!
The four people who had nothing to say readjusted their combinations - Long Zaitian, who was originally with Jiang Cuilian, and Zhao Shuxian took a rickshaw back to Longfu together; It turned out that Wan Fuxiang, who was with Zhao Shuxian, and Jiang Cuilian took a rickshaw back to Wanjia together.
Wan Fuxiang and Zhao Shuxian, who returned from the nursery, became more and more angry the more they thought about itβespecially Zhao Shuxian, she decided that the two or three-year-old child was born to Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian. Since that child was born to Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian, what else should he be left for?
Zhao Shuxian inquired several times and found Wan Fuxiang in Wan Fuxiang's store.
"Boss Wan! Do you say that the two or three-year-old child in the nursery was born to Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian? β
"I think it's probably from them."
"And what are you going to do?" Zhao Shuxian asked with a fierce look in her eyes.
"You want to ......" Wan Fuxiang seemed to see Zhao Shuxian's vicious intentions.
"That's right! I want to get rid of this kid! "The most poisonous woman's heart! Zhao Shuxian had a murderous heart.
"Hey...... That's a life, too, huh? β
"Hate a little non-gentleman, no poison and no husband! What is a life? That is the evil seed born by Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian, how can it be left? Zhao Shuxian has the demeanor of a vicious husband.
"But...... What if the child was not born to them? Wan Fuxiang, who couldn't bear to kill, said worriedly.
"I've already asked around the nursery! The old couple had no children and no daughters, no daughters at all, and the little children were not born to their daughters at all; It must have been raised by Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian. And the neighbors there all said that the child was picked up by the old couple on the first day of the lunar month in Dawang Temple the year before last. β
"Then can we get this kid to a place where the dragon can't find it in the sky and Jiang Cuilian?" Wan Fuxiang still couldn't bear to kill.
"If you don't cut the grass and don't get rid of the roots, you will definitely leave disaster! It's better to solve it completely! "Zhao Shuxian must put that little child to death.
"That'...... How to solve it completely? β
"Trick that kid out, and then kill him." Zhao Shuxian said confidently.
"Who's going to do this?"
"The Dragon Mansion is their world, and I can't find someone in the Dragon Mansion; It's up to you to find someone! β
"This ...... What is this? The enmity of the wife is as great as the sky! The dragon has taken your wife in heaven, and you are still so indecisive? Do you still look a little manly? β
"This ...... All right! I'm looking for someone to do it! β
"That's right! In this way, we can vent the hatred in your hearts and mine! Zhao Shuxian said viciously.
Zhao Shuxian staggered away! Wan Fuxiang thought about it - do you really want to kill this child? It's a life! And also! What if it was killed by mistake? What if someone kills a child and it is revealed? Mistakenly killed! Lost a small life in vain. The matter of asking someone to kill a child has been revealed! She, Zhao Shuxian, is fine, won't I, Wan Fuxiang, become the main culprit? Kill for your life! Isn't my life in danger? Ay...... That's the only way to do it......
The next day, Wan Fuxiang, who had made up his mind, went to the nursery to buy a pot of begonia flowers from Lei Sanye, and after giving an extra dollar, he had a family meal with Lei Sanye and Lei San's grandmother, and played hide and seek with the two or three-year-old child.
After a while, where was a pot of begonia flowers, but the person and the child who were playing hide and seek were gone! Lei Sanye and Lei San's grandmother were in a hurry to look everywhere and didn't find them - the old couple was so angry that they were bedridden.
Where did Wan Fuxiang get that little kid? Let's listen to the breakdown later. But one thing is for sure - Wan Fuxiang, who has a clear conscience, did not kill; But he took away the "golden dragon" and gold collar that the baby wore around his neck.
On the fourth day, Zhao Shuxian came to Wan Fuxiang's shop again and asked, "Has that been done?" Wan Fuxiang replied, "The problem has been solved." Zhao Shuxian didn't ask any more.
Because Wan Fuxiang and Zhao Shuxian had such a trouble in the nursery, the original agreement between Young Master Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian to "go to the nursery in the western suburbs to 'buy flowers' together on the first day of June every year - to visit the child named 'Long Miao'" came to an abrupt end. But the two of them still took the time to visit the child - Young Master Long Zaitian and Jiang Cuilian also knew that the child was gone! Of course, I was so angry!
Probably because Wan Fuxiang did not kill, God later asked Jiang Cuilian to give birth to a (third) child for him, and it was a kid - this kid was later the notorious Japanese military police translator Miki - Wan Jincheng.
Jiang Cuilian will not raise any more after giving birth to Markham! Why? Because Jiang Cuilian and Wan Fuxiang's relationship completely broke and separated! What is the division of this young husband and young wife? Here's why:
Not long after Jiang Cuilian gave birth to Markham, she accidentally saw that the maid Sister-in-law Shi often washed and dried a piece of blue and white square cloth - for such a blue and white square cloth, Jiang Cuilian was unforgettable, so she asked Sister-in-law Shi:
"Sister-in-law Shi, why do you always wash and dry this blue and white square cloth? What is this blue and white square cloth for? β
"Mrs. Hui, the old lady has been urinating a little lately**, and often splashes a little urine on the bed; In order not to wash the blanket every day, use this piece of blue and white square cloth on the blanket on the old lady's bed, if you splash a little urine on it, just wash this piece of blue and white square cloth. β
"Oh! I see, where did you buy this blue and white square cloth? β
"I didn't buy this blue and white square cloth, it was taken out for me by the master. The old man said that he used to have an old cloth at home, and he was going to throw it away, but because the cloth was beautiful and strong, he didn't throw it away, and now it comes in handy. "Sister-in-law Shi, who didn't know, told the truth.
"Oh! I know! You're busy! Jiang Cuilian returned to the room thoughtfully, and she secretly thought in her heart: This blue and white square cloth is like the blue and white cloth that Mrs. Long gave me back then! How can Wan Fuxiang also have this kind of cloth? Don't...... Well! Don't think about it, there are so many of the same things in the world!
In the blink of an eye, it was the busy season, and Xiang Xiuli, the wife of Ding Changfa, who had been promoted from a long-term worker to a housekeeper, came to Wanfu and wanted Ding Changfa to take a few days off to go back to help.
Ding Chang's wife, Xiang Xiuli, was wearing a yellow and blue checkered jacket with a red background, because she was fat, her clothes were small, and her whole body was tight, and it didn't look like a tailor-made clothes.
Ding Changfa led his wife Xiang Xiuli to ask Boss Wan for leave, and Wan Fuxiang agreed that Ding Changfa would have to come quickly in five days after he went back. Jiang Cuilian on the side was shocked when she saw the yellow and blue checkered jacket on a red background that Xiang Xiuli was wearing, isn't this the clothes I was robbed of by thieves back then? How could it be on this woman? Could it be that this woman or someone from this woman's family robbed me of my burden back then? Jiang Cuilian, who was a little excited, couldn't bear it, and asked Xiang Xiuli sharply on the spot:
"Whoa! Pretty! Where did you buy this flower dress? How much did you buy? β
"Mrs. Hui, I didn't buy this flower dress, it was given to me by the master for long hair."
"What? You didn't buy this flower dress, it was given to you by the master? Fuxiang, did you give her this dress? Jiang Cuilian turned around in surprise and asked Wan Fuxiang
"Yes...... Yes! Wan Fuxiang's answer seemed a little unnatural.
"Long hair, you hurry up and go back early, go down!" Jiang Cuilian, who had basically thought of the truth of the matter, sent Ding Changfa and his wife away first, and then continued to interrogate Wan Fuxiang:
"Fuxiang, where did you get this red-on-top, yellow-flowered, and blue-squared jacket?"
"It's ...... This is me...... My mother stayed; Because...... Because the quality is good, it's a pity to throw it away, and it's useless to put it at home, so I gave it to Ding Changfa's wife. Wan Fuxiang said Ai Ai.
"Really? Is this red-on-back, yellow-flowered, blue-squared jacket your mother's? How old is your mother? Still wearing this kind of floral clothes? I also heard that your mother is very fat, can she wear this flower dress when she is alive? Jiang Cuilian threw a few question marks at Wan Fuxiang at once.
"This ...... Does it matter? Why are you interrogating this flower dress in such detail? It's boring. Wan Fuxiang said inwardly.
"It's important! Wan Fuxiang! Let me ask you again, where did the red-on-background, yellow-flowered, and blue-squared jacket that Xiang Xiuli wore come from? Jiang Cuilian's eyes widened angrily and stared at Wan Fuxiang fiercely.
"It's unbelievable! I don't answer boring questions like this, I'm busy, I'm going to the store! Wan Fuxiang said, just leave.
"Stop!" Jiang Cuilian shouted, got up and blocked Wan Fuxiang's way: "If you don't answer my question, then I'll tell you a wonderful story." β
Jiang Cuilian dragged Wan Fuxiang back and pressed him on the sofa, and she was in the hall, pacing back and forth while recalling her "wonderful story":
"On the evening of March 17, the 27th year of Guangxu, there was a young woman who took a rickshaw from the city to Dawangzhuang. The woman was about to enter the street with a large burden on her shoulder, when she was confronted by a sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man with a dejected head.
When the man saw that the young woman was alone, he stared up and down at the young woman with his eyes. It's just that because the night is shrouded, both sides can't see each other clearly, but both sides have a little sense of dΓ©jΓ vu in the blur.
The man stared at the young woman with the burden for half a minute, and then suddenly he reached out and pulled the burden off the young woman's shoulder, and ran west.
When Jiang Cuilian said this, she deliberately paused, and two eyes that could penetrate the skin shot directly on Wan Fuxiang's faceβthis gaze was amazing! It shot Wan Fuxiang's face red and white, and it also shot beads of sweat the size of soybeans on Wan Fuxiang's forehead.
"Wan Fuxiang! Do you know who that young woman is? Do you know what color that furoshiki cloth is and what kind of flower head it is? Do you know what's in that baggage? Jiang Cuilian deliberately stopped again, and the two sword-like gazes stabbed tightly on Wan Fuxiang's face, and this gaze stabbed Wan Fuxiang so much that his whole body was paralyzed!
"Wan Fuxiang! I'm telling you! That young woman was me; The color and head of the furoshira are exactly the same as the one on your father's bed; One of the clothes wrapped in the bag was exactly the same as the yellow and blue checkered jacket on a red background worn by Xiang Xiuli. β
When Jiang Cuilian said this, she stopped, stood in front of Wan Fuxiang and asked coldly, "Wan Fuxiang!" I've said all that, don't you want to add something? β
"Good! Wan Fuxiang, you don't want to add, do you, then I'll tell you. Jiang Cuilian asked herself and replied: "In the bag of blue and white cloth you robbed, in addition to my clothes, there are also four yellow gold bars, are you right?" β
When Wan Fuxiang heard this, he was like a thunderbolt in the sky, and it was like being thrown into the abyss, his eyes were black, his ears roared, his whole body was cold, and his hands and feet were at a loss.
"No...... Not so! I'm not like that! I didn't have that! Not me! Not me! I didn't ......" Wan Fuxiang shouted incoherently and hysterically. No! It's not a roar, it's a wail, it's a wail.
"Wan Fuxiang! You well-dressed **, you fierce devil, you inhumane, unsmelled dog beast, you hurt me so hard! Woo ...... "Jiang Cuilian thought of the scene when she was robbed of her burden by thieves, and she was in pain and almost committed suicide, so she gritted her teeth with hatred, and wanted to eat the sanctimonious hypocrite in front of her. But she deleted a plot of Long Zaitian and Wan Fuxiang's fight and didn't say anything - Jiang Cuilian deleted this episode and didn't say it, so of course Wan Fuxiang wouldn't add it.
Jiang Cuilian cried for a long time before she stopped her grief and said coldly to Wan Fuxiang: "You robbed me of my gold bars that year, and I even had the heart to die at that time. Now I should have told your father and Ding Changfa and everyone else about your ugly deed, and then swept you out of the house. But for the sake of my children, I will leave you for the time being, but all the property in your family is mine (Jiang Cuilian still doesn't know that Wan Fuxiang deceived her and Long Zai's natural son from the nursery, and took away the 'golden dragon' and gold collar worn by the child).
"Now I will give you a chance to atone for your sins - I hope you can run the shop well, train your children well, and you are not allowed to mess with flowers and grass outside, you are not allowed to squander money, you are not allowed to gamble and drink, and you are not allowed to get involved in any ** habits and hobbies.
"But you have heard one thing to me: from today onwards, you and I will break off our relationship with each other, and we will live separately from now on, I will live at home, you will live in the shop, do not interfere with each other, and raise our children together like strangers." Jiang Cuilian said, took out Wan Fuxiang's clothes, utensils and covers, and asked his subordinates to move to the store with Wan Fuxiang - the husband and wife relationship between Wan Fuxiang and Jiang Cuilian has existed in name only.
There is a saying in the world called "small things lose big things", which means that some people often spoil big things and lose big profits because of some small things. This is not! If Wan Fuxiang had robbed Jiang Cuilian's burden back then, and after getting four gold bars, he would have thrown away the blue and white cloth and Jiang Cuilian's clothes, he would not have left a "bane", and he would not have been allowed to have the East Window incident and his original form would have been exposed. Of course, on the other hand, this may mean that good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and it is only a matter of time before it is too late. If a person does something ugly or bad, sooner or later he will always be exposed and retributed.
