Chapter Twenty-Three: Clouds and Mud
Jixiang Pharmacy is located on Dongning Street, and the two of them turned a corner through Zhongning Street and turned into Dongning Street.
There was a music workshop on the street, and a man who looked like a scholar walked out, his expression a little excited.
Outside the door, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman saw him come out and greeted him happily: "Big brother, is the song sold?" ”
The man said excitedly: "Sold it, sold it for ten ......" Speaking of this, he glanced left and right, and found that the warmth came over, and immediately shut up: "Go home and talk about it." ”
"Okay." The two left in a hurry.
Wen Wen heard the conversation between the two, turned his head, and his eyes swept over the words on the red paper on the side of the door of the Luojiao Music Workshop, and his heart moved.
~~
At the same time, on the other side of the town, in the alley next to a two-entry courtyard, there were more than a dozen people standing.
These people were attracted by the sound of the piano coming from the courtyard and stopped to listen.
It sounded so good, and everyone was intoxicated.
Wen Yu covered her face, avoided people, and hurriedly ran into the courtyard from the back door, crying red-eyed: "Woo, mother, I'm not alive!" ”
The sound of the piano stopped abruptly.
The people outside the courtyard walls woke up like a dream.
"Hey, why did it stop all of a sudden?" Some people were stunned.
Someone regretted: "Why did you only play half of it, it's so good!" This song should only be in heaven! ”
Some people are still unsatisfied: "It's heartbreaking!" There is only one person in the world who has this kind of instrument! If the gentle girl claims to be the second, I'm afraid no one in the world will dare to call it the first! ”
……
More than a dozen people praised each other, they waited for a while, and found that the piano did not sound again, and it seemed that there was no more today, so they left regretfully.
In the courtyard, Wen Wan stopped stroking the qin, raised her beautiful and delicate face, frowned lightly, and said in a gentle voice: "Didn't you say don't be so frizzy?" You have to ...... when you talk and walk."
Her words were stopped, and looking at her sister, who had messy hair and was a little embarrassed, her face changed: "What's wrong with you?" How did it get like this? ”
Won't it be to meet Deng's disciples...... Thinking of this, her heart jumped!
Xiao Zhu ran out of the house at this time: "Oh, my little liver, why did you make it look like this?" Who bullied you? ”
"Woo, it's all the plague god's warmth......" Wen Yu cried and told the matter.
Wen Wan listened, her head hurt, and her always gentle face was dyed with a touch of anger, but her voice was still gentle and gentle: "How can you compare with warmth, she has no head and no face, and you are shameless?" Do you know the difference between clouds and mud? We are the clouds in the sky, which make people look up, and she is the mud under our feet, to be trampled on. Your anger will only ruin your reputation and pull you down from the clouds. ”
It even bothers me. Wen Wan silently added in her heart.
Xiao Zhu wiped her crying face with a handkerchief, and her heart ached: "Your sister is right, how can you do this kind of thing of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred?" Their kind of people are shameless and famous, and they don't feel ashamed to make trouble on the street! But you are different, when your eldest brother wins the top prize in the examination and becomes an official, you will be a lady of the official family, and in the future, you will marry into a noble family to be the head of the house, and the wife of the decree! If you have a bad reputation, everything will be in vain! ”
Wen Yu stopped crying, and said with red eyes: "I'm angry that they deceived grandma for a tael of silver, and I want to teach me a lesson." ”
For a tael of silver?! Wen Wan's brain hurts even more! At this time, facing the wind, she smelled a commotion, gently took a black line, and silently took a step back.
This sister is too impulsive to talk and do.
The people on the street didn't recognize her as their sister, right?
Xiao Zhu hated that iron could not become steel: "You! It's just not long-sighted! The one or two pieces of silver, my mother has a way to get it back, why do you bother to find her bad luck? Look, it's a big shame this time! Learn from your sister in the future, don't lower your identity to deal with that kind of person, lower your level, you know? ”
"So what should I do?" Wen Yu also regretted that he was impulsive.
Wen Wan shook her head, where would she dare to expect her impulsive sister to do anything: "Just ignore them." If you paint your picture well, your reputation will be you in the future, and the stars will hold the moon as you, and those people will only look up! Still not to be trampled on? Don't you think it's good to trample those mediocre and lowly people under your feet, and see them look up to you in all kinds of ways, shame themselves on themselves, and try their best to please them? Besides, will the cloud teach mud to do it himself? As soon as it rained, the mud would be wet and muddy. Have you ever thought about what the rain is? ”
"Your sister is right, you just need to study hard and be a famous and talented woman, there are some things that your mother will do, and the people who pursue you will do it for you. Going toe-for-tat with mud will dirty your body and affect your reputation, and it will be difficult for you to marry into a rich family in the future......"
Wen Yu was thoughtful.
After a while, he said lightly: "I listen to my mother and sister." ”
――
On the street, the warmth and gentleness walked for more than a quarter of an hour, and finally came to the auspicious medicine shop.
The two walked in and greeted the middle-aged man sitting at the counter and settling accounts: "Second uncle." ”
Wen Jiagui raised his head and saw the two of them coming, glanced back at the door, and said in surprise: "Brother Chun, Sister Nuan, only the two of you?" Is Sister Nuan unwell coming to grab medicine? ”
Wen Jiagui took a closer look at the warmth, and saw that his complexion was very good, he had never been better, this body should be fine!
And Sister Nuan walked in by herself for the first time, and every time her fourth brother came in with her on her back.
"No, second uncle, we came to the town today to fry snails, and my father went to buy something. Let's take a look at your selling shouwu by the way. Second uncle, here you go, this is fried snails, it's delicious, you and the second aunt, the two sisters try it. Nuan handed him the two large bags of fried snails that had been packed long ago.
Although this second uncle is the son of the Zhu family, he is kind and kind, unlike the Zhu family.
It's good for my family, and it's good for other brothers.,Absolutely help with anything.。
In the past, every time they came to grab medicine, it would be much cheaper, and they all knew that he was secretly helping their family.
Zhu didn't like him, because he became half a door-to-door son-in-law for love, and lived in his father-in-law's house all day long. And the Tan family who married only gave birth to two daughters, so she had three sons and only one grandson, which was not as good as the Wang family's one son and three grandchildren.
However, because the Tan family is wealthy, they have always lived in their mother's house and rarely return to the village.
Zhu only complained in front of Old Man Wen.
A medicine boy saw the two coming, and hurriedly walked into the inner room, and looked at him warmly and didn't care.
"You kid, just eat by yourself, there is no shortage of food here for the second uncle." The fourth brother's family couldn't even eat a full mouthful, so how could he be embarrassed to ask them to eat.
"There's a lot more at home! Second uncle, let's do it! Otherwise, we won't leave here! ”
Wen Chun also said at this time: "There are indeed many at home, and the ones that I touch in the river don't cost money." This snail is cooked, and the second uncle takes it to the second uncle, the second cousin and the fourth cousin to try it. ”
Wen Jiagui took it with a smile when he heard this, it was the intention of the fourth brother's family, he just bought them some pastries for a while, thinking of this, he calmed down, and then said with a smile: "Didn't you say that you came to sell Shouwu?" Recently, there is a shortage of shou wu in the shops in the town, if this shou wu grows well, the second uncle will give you a good price!"
Wen Chun put down a sack on his back and opened it.
At this time, a bitter voice sounded: "Are all the pharmacies in the town lacking Shou Wu?" How did I not know this? And give a good price? Brother-in-law, don't you think this pharmacy is surnamed Wen? If you want to give a good price privately, just give a good price? ”
