Section 10 Remembering the True Temperament of Grandmother
Driven by the curiosity of the audience, Liu Chang quickly revealed Zhu Xi's misfortune, and he asked the audience: "As a Wuyi person, can you know the origin of the turtles on the banks of Jiuqu River?" As soon as Liu Chang asked, he couldn't help laughing, he blamed himself for confusing the things of the era.
The tea boy listened to the shopkeeper's call, and hurriedly urged: "Say it quickly, otherwise it will be a pity!" β
A pair of tortoise spirits who have achieved positive results on the banks of Jiuqu Creek are bad people, and they tell sΓΉ Zhuzi: "Li Niang is transformed by fox spirits." β
"Why do turtle spirits want bad people and good deeds?" The tea boy hurried to ask.
Liu Sanbian guessed: "It's probably jealousy!" β
"Yes, that's what most people think." Liu Chang said, "People will think that the appearance of the turtle shrinking its head and shrinking its head is extremely ugly, and compared with the beauty, it is very different. β
"Reasonable!" The tea boy stared at Liu Chang intently, urging, "Straightforward, what will be the real reason, the contrast between beauty and ugliness?" β
"Actually, it's for love." Liu Chang directly met the request of the tea boy, he took off the towel on his shoulder, wiped the tea table for Liu Chang and them, and left with the teapot satisfied.
The audience grew more and more, and one of the old men asked, "How do you say this for love?" β
Liu Chang took a sip of tea, put down the teacup and said: "Love is like a magic box, it has great attraction and temptation, and they all want to get it, and they don't want to lose it." It is said that love can purify the soul, purify feelings, enhance tolerance, enhance understanding and enhance cognitive ability, but as everyone knows, it can also breed pain, sadness, jealousy and hatred while creating happiness. β
"That's pretty clear." Liu Sanbian was sure and asked, "Will Zhu Xi do this?" β
Zhu Zi didn't believe it, the turtle spirit said the method of verification, and let Zhu Zi observe the changes of Li Niang at night, and at about the hour, Li Niang will definitely show her original form. The soul is sublimated, and the work of cultivation is fulfilled.
One night when he couldn't see his five fingers, Zhu Zi claimed to be unwell, went to bed early, Liniang undressed and took care of her, Shi Er probed the heat of Xiang Gong's forehead, Shi Eryu dipped her fingers in water to moisten her lips, and Shi Er looked carefully in distress, as if admiring a beloved art masterpiece.
And Zhu Xi pinched the moment in his heart. Soon fell asleep.
Even more leaks knocked on Liniang's heart bit by bit, exhausting her to exhaustion, and before she knew it, she fell asleep. When he was approaching, Zhu Xi woke up, turned over and sat up, leaning over to watch Liniang's sleeping appearance, peaceful and beautiful, extremely cute. I can't help but wonder in my heart, this damn turtle spirit is born out of nothing, and he is jealous of others, which is really hateful! I cursed in my heart. I took a deep breath and kissed Liniang.
Sitting boring, leaning against the bed, sleepiness hits. Suddenly, I saw the quilt turn over, and when I looked at it, a beautiful fox came into view. Zhu Xi rubbed his sleepy eyes, looked at it again, and sighed in his heart, he couldn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe that this was the truth.
He got out of bed, listened to the ridicule of the turtle spirit outside the door, angrily grabbed the brush on the inkstone, dipped it in ink, pulled the house away, and threw it hard, and the turtle spirit screamed. It became the upper and lower two water turtles on the bank of Jiuqu River.
"Say it quickly!" The tea boy responded to the shopkeeper's urging and did not move, "What happened to Liniang?" β
The rest of the audience was also looking forward to answering.
"What else?" Liu Chang said regretfully, "It's a pity that the soul can't possess the body!" β
The audience was extremely disappointed.
Liu Sanbian regretted it, and said affectionately: "One day of love, never forget, Zhu Zi is fortunate, life is enough!" β
Liu Chang held the teacup in his hand and invited the ancestor of the three changes to say: "Please, the ancestor is really a man of temperament!" β
Liu Sanbian was quite moved, he waved his hand to the maids, and told Liu Chang: "They are all witnesses, and the matter of grandmother Yu is in no way inferior to Liniang." β
"That's right! As a family history, I look forward to it! Liu Changyang begged, "Tell me and listen to it, and correct the lies of the future generations!" β
Liu Sanbian tells the story of family history.
Grandfather Liu's Yanchong and father Liu's Yanyi both came out of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and had a close relationship with the Southern Tang Dynasty Queen, becoming the right-hand man of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
Liu Chang felt that it was not good, his brows were tightly locked, and he hesitated: "Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, is famous all over the world for his glamorous words, but he can ...... it."
The oldest maid reacted very quickly: "The old slave doesn't know where the young master Liu Chang comes from, what is his ability, but he can't disobey the elders of the Liu family and ruin the reputation of the family!" β
"Excuse me, what do you mean by that?" Liu Chang asked.
"The queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty took singing and dancing as his companion all day long, and he took the courtesan as his companion, and he was not wronged if he did not engage in government affairs." The longest maid turned her head and emphasized, "The two masters are by no means people who connived at the desolation of the court, nor are they the people who harm the lord, but have become the mainstay of the latter ruler's government!" β
Liu Chang's heart was hanging and his gall was also let go because of this.
Liu Sanbian said proudly, it is precisely because the two ancestors are not the little ones who confuse the lord and flatter the lord that the step-grandmother Yu really felt the majesty of the Liu family, admired the majesty of the Liumen talent, and understood the nobility and preciousness of the Liumen personality, so that he resolutely broke through the feudal etiquette barrier and achieved a peerless marriage with the talented woman whom Liu Zu admired.
"Mother Yu's is knowledgeable, and she doesn't think it's from an ordinary family." Liu Chang asked.
The younger maid said: The Yu family is said to have come from a family of generations of eunuchs, a famous family, a solid family, full of friends, and a developed family style, heirlooms of poetry and books, and a deep history of miscellaneous learning.
The maid in the middle of the age rushed to say: When the Yu family and the grandfather Liu family first came to Chong'an, everyone was amazed, there are such beautiful people in the world, the annual rings are not engraved on the face, the wind and rain are not printed on the forehead, and it is strange that the old husband and young wife match, but later I learned that the grandfather and the Yu family are similar in age, the heart is connected, the love is connected, and the mind is like-minded, and it is indeed a rare perfect marriage.
"The younger generation knows something about the old grandmother!" Liu Chang is full of admiration for her grandmother Yu, "She knows the social qualities of people in her chest, and she has a clear mirror on the foundation of the society, and she educates people with her heart. β
The old maid looked at the young master Liu Sanchang, but not necessarily to ask for consent, but a kind of awe for the master, she said: "I heard that when Chongye came to visit once, he happened to meet the Yu family. But she is different from ordinary women, not only do not dodge, but generously greet each other, when Chongye first showed his heart to Yu, Yu angrily reprimanded not to be with the person who confuses the master, and does not marry the person who harms the master! β
Later, Yu used Chongye's justification to verify his father and brother and naturalized court officials, and after confirming that this statement was true, in the face of Chongye's repeated courtship, Yu said: "I was divorced by my husband's family, and they were not blessed!" In my opinion, it is really dross to annihilate human nature from the beginning to the end, and it violates the equality of people. (To be continued......)
