“…… Some people say that jailers and prisoners are like wolves and sheep, and that friendship can never arise between them. If it's a human being, there are feelings, what's wrong with the jailer? The jailer is also a human being, and he also has seven emotions and six desires, as well as relatives and friends! ”
Ye Xiaotian seems to have returned to the prison of the Criminal Department, and is brainwashing the prisoners and correcting the names of the jailers: "Lord Yang was imprisoned three years ago, and I was also a jailer three years ago.
'The eyes are the palace of the owner of the field, and the beauty is the same. If the yin and yang are dry and the bones are exposed, the parents' wealth is always empty', this is a hexagram in the "Mai Physiognomy" that Lord Yang taught me to memorize. Let's not talk about that for now. In short, Lord Yang admires me very much, and he also said that I am extraordinary in appearance and rich in life. ”
Ye Xiaotian said: "That day, the imperial court issued an edict, Lord Yang wanted to ask for beheading the next day, I made a few dimes of wine for Lord Yang, and asked for a few side dishes with wine, it was very dark in the prison at that time, and it was still raining outside, I lit a candle, under the candlelight, Lord Yang burst into tears......
Hu Xianling, Mrs. Yang, the three thin chief managers, and all the guests who came to mourn listened to him in a daze, Ye Xiaotian's small mouth was extremely fast, and they couldn't interject at all. Ye Xiaotian is like a most dedicated actor, and he is very dedicated to performing.
Ye Xiaotian's face showed a sad look, and he said gloomily: "Lord Yang said: 'Xiaotian, the old man has been in prison for three years, all the old friends are gone, and the relatives are also gone, only you are the old man's old friend, when the old man is dying, there is only one person who can't let go, that is my daughter, the old man entrusted her to you, okay?'" ’”
When she heard "After being imprisoned for three years, all old friends are gone, and relatives are also gone", Mrs. Yang's cheeks were hot, and she lowered her head in shame, but as soon as she lowered her head, she suddenly raised it again when she heard the latter sentence, because the movement was too fast, and it seemed that she heard the knuckles in the back of her neck click.
In the upper courtyard of the hall, there was silence for a while.
"When...... Dangdangdangdang......"
A lock snapped on the ground a few times, it was the musician who played the lock in the corner of the wall fell by mistake, and a great monk who chanted the scriptures raised the copper cymbal and rubbed his bald head, looking left and right. The beautiful and peerless woman was already crying, but at this time, her eyes widened with misty tears, and she looked at Ye Xiaotian in astonishment.
Ye Xiaotian sighed faintly, raised his head and said: "Xiaotian, I am from a humble background and my family is poor, so naturally I am not worthy of the noble daughter of the Yang family, but Lord Yang said that after this catastrophe, he has explored the world, and he feels that any rich family is not as good as a good ...... of a peaceful family."
The more Ye Xiaotian spoke, the more emotional he became, and when he lowered his head again, there were already tears in his eyes, and he was moved by the nonsense he had made up.
Yang Lin has always been at odds with husband and wife, and he is very aware of his wife's dislike for his beloved daughter, and knows that as long as he dies, his wife will inevitably abuse his beloved daughter. As for Ye Xiaotian, Yang Lin appreciated him very much.
Ye Xiaotian is kind to Yang Lin, and Yang Lin, who is obsessed with physiognomy, believes that Ye Xiaotian will be peaceful and rich in his life, so ......, Yang Lin is on his deathbed, in view of the situation at home, it is reasonable to make such a decision that seems a little strange to others.
Ye Xiaotian looked at Hu Xianling and said in a deep voice: "Lord Yang...... Oh no! My father-in-law also said in the letter that he wanted Xiaotian to take his mother and mother-in-law back to Beijing together to support him wholeheartedly. When my father-in-law was dying, what I was most worried about was that the door of the house was not closed, so that the bereaved people would laugh at it! ”
Ye Xiaotian added this sentence, nothing more than thinking that if she only took the pretty little lady away, she would worry about her mother, and she would inevitably wash her face with tears all day long, and maybe she would have a grudge against herself, so it was better to take her old lady away, no matter how poor the family was, it would not be enough for a woman's rations.
Hu Xianling looked down at the suicide note, and then looked up at Ye Xiaotian, dumbfounded and speechless, only the beard under his chin trembled.
Ye Xiaotian said in his heart: "Old guy, I have given in, I have already given in, I don't even want five hundred taels of silver, and I want to take away the thorn in your eye, you don't deceive people too much, you can't kill people too much, you have to be forgiving and forgiving!" ”
Hu Zhixian thought about the content of the letter, and then thought about what Ye Xiaotian said, looking at Ye Xiaotian's calm expression, he only felt extremely absurd, and his mind was a little confused, how could this kid make up nonsense with his eyes open, and what he could say so sincerely?
Deny what he said, and tear up the letter? It's not impossible, but in this way, others will inevitably be suspicious, and believing Ye Xiaotian's words will be greatly detrimental to their official reputation.
If it involves the division of family property, then go out to destroy the letter and kill people, and ignore the rumors and rumors of others. But now Ye Xiaotian doesn't want anything, and he has solved the problem of the thorn in his eye for him, what reason is there not to agree?
Hu Zhixian's eyes flickered, and he suddenly laughed.
He smiled and put away the letter, stuffed it into his sleeve, and said calmly: "That's really what the letter says, in the old man's opinion, this move is really a bit absurd. However, his sister-in-law has always been reckless, so it's no wonder that he made this decision. Even when his sister-in-law is dying, how can the old man disobey? Three thin, you go and invite the young lady. ”
The corners of Ye Xiaotian's mouth just escaped a smile, and immediately froze like frost flowers on the window lattice: "Miss? Isn't Miss right in front of you, where else are you going to invite Miss? ”
Ye Xiaotian hurriedly turned his head to look at the pretty woman who was tied up with five flowers, and the woman was also staring at him with a pair of beautiful big eyes, but her face was too soft, even with a shocked expression, it still showed a pitiful charm.
Ye Xiaotian was confused for a while: "This ...... What's going on? ”
……
When Mrs. Yang heard such a strange last words, she immediately said angrily: "Brother, this matter is really inappropriate, he must have been old and confused to make such last words, and my sister is different about it......"
Hu Xianling's face sank, and he shouted: "I'm not just your eldest brother, but also Jingzhou County Ling!" Now I am not interfering in your family affairs as your eldest brother, but in the capacity of Jingzhou County Order, you don't have to say much! ”
Hu Xianling was really a little unhappy in his heart, isn't it very good to deal with it like this? This girl is a little unbelievably thick. Yang Lin's will made it clear that he would divide a set of houses, 50 acres of good paddy fields, and a shop in the south of the city to his beloved daughter. Hmph, this Yang Lin, I thought he had been in prison for three years, but he still said his word in this family?
Now that Ye Xiaotian has built a ladder for him, why not take the opportunity to go down, do you have to force this kid surnamed Ye to jump off the wall in a hurry and tell the truth about the will in public, embarrassing everyone? Women's homes, unreasonable!
It was rare for Mrs. Yang to see her brother so fierce, although she was reluctant, she reprimanded him, and her heart was terrified, and she didn't dare to say anything more for a while.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
A three- or four-year-old girl staggered into the yard, her round pink little face, like a cute red apple. The little hand was held by an old mother with an unkind face, and she walked timidly.
The girl is tied in two bundles and tied into small pigtails, graceful and delicate, and the total horns are very cute. Wearing a paddy field coat made of various colored fabrics, like a brightly colored robe, the more innocent it looks.
The little girl tied a thin white silk belt on her forehead, and a white ribbon was tied around her waist, which seemed to be keeping filial piety, she looked timidly at the people in the courtyard, and suddenly saw the woman who was tied up with flowers and was as soft as water, and she cried with a wow.
She broke free of the old mother's hand, staggered over, hugged the woman's thigh, and cried: "Mother, mother, you big villains, let go of my mother!" ”
The little girl was very scared, since she and her mother were kicked out of the Yang Mansion and relied on each other in the desolate small courtyard on the corner of the alley, they had never been separated from their mother. Who knew that yesterday, two fierce old mothers suddenly came to the Yang Mansion, and they took her back to the Yang Mansion.
They said that her father was dead, and they also tied a white belt to her to let her wear filial piety, and said that her mother was a lowly concubine, not worthy of the lord to wear filial piety, she was so scared alone in the Yang family's mansion, and now she finally saw her mother.
"Far away, far away......"
When Shui Wu saw her daughter, tears rained down when she landed, her arms were tied behind her back, so she had to squat down and gently rub her daughter's little face with her cheek. The daughter was in tears, and she was also crying, and the tears of the two people were stained on each other's cheeks, and many of the condolences guests couldn't bear to turn their heads when they saw it.
Ye Xiaotian's eyes widened wider than Niu Du: "Miss Yang Family...... Miss Yang Jia...... It's that big? Yang Lin's old thing buried in the loess around his neck, his daughter is still a little bit of a milky smell! ”
The corners of Ye Xiaotian's mouth twitched a few times, and he shouted sadly and indignantly in his heart: "How could I have thought that the baby daughter of an old man Bai is only three or four years old? If you count it like this, when he was in prison, this girl was at most a year old, smart and clever, handsome and cute! ”
In fact, in all parts of the north and south, the daughter's family marrying at the age of thirteen or fourteen abounds, and this situation is especially common in the south, and if you take a concubine, accepting a girl as a concubine is a very enthusiastic thing for scholars and doctors, and Ye Xiaotian is not ignorant of this.
It's just that Yang Lin's old guy is too old, and he has been in prison for three years, so Ye Xiaotian's thinking has gone into a misunderstanding, thinking that Yang Lin's concubine was at least accepted more than ten years ago, and when he saw Shui Wu, who was still immature, he naturally thought that she was Yang Lin's daughter.
Seeing this scene, Ye Xiaotian wanted to cry without tears: "God, you split me with a thunderbolt, don't make such a fool of me!" ”
If he had known that the dancing girl who looked like an unmarried girl was actually Lord Yang's concubine, then he would definitely say that Yang Lin wanted to send the concubine to him as a pile in order to repay his kindness.
It was common for scholars and doctors to give concubines to each other, and it was said to be elegant. On the basis of this custom, if he said that Yang Lin was worried about the suffering of his concubine after death, and in order to repay the kindness of his acquaintance, he gave his concubine as a gift, which is far more reasonable than accepting a four-year-old little Lori as his wife, but now......
Ye Xiaotian looked at the yellow-haired girl who was holding her mother's thigh and crying so much that she couldn't help but want to cry a little. I was very entangled in thinking that even if this little yellow-haired girl was to be a child daughter-in-law, she would have to raise her for at least ten years, and her eggs were shattered.
P: Ah, yesterday's sentence said that everyone would not guess the plot lightly, not that Xiaotian was going to make up a lie, and many readers who read ten lines at a glance obviously did not notice the difference between the two words, so most of them guessed that it was actually already obvious "will." ”
Therefore, I was very proud, and I thought that today's readers and friends would vomit three liters of blood, and then lie in Xiaotian's arms, and said quietly: "I guessed the beginning of the story, but I didn't guess the ending of the story...... but someone really guessed it!! Among the readers, the hidden dragon and the crouching tiger are really hidden, and the bull fork is a mess!
