The first time a man meets a woman is in a tea plantation listening to a play. On that day, the song on the stage was "The Story of the West Chamber", which tells the story of scholar Zhang Junrui and Miss Xiangguo Cui Yingying who met and fell in love at first sight, and broke through the family shackles with the help of the matchmaker.

The man on the stage sang melodiously and tactfully, but the man didn't listen at all, because his gaze was completely fixed on the other person.

The woman had come with her parents that day, and she sat there listening to the play, her expression attentive, her face smiling, as delicate as a delicate flower shining on the water.

His heart was moved, and it was the first time that he had been so long for so many years.

But before the play was finished, the woman left with her parents, and he was anxious to chase after him, but the tea garden was crowded with people that day, and if he didn't pay attention, he couldn't see her. He came back dejectedly, and just as the servants on the stage sang the sentence, "Don't love heroes, don't envy arrogance, voluntarily live with the same family, and die with the same hole." ”

His heart trembled, as if it had been lit up at once. He knew that he must find her, and in this life, he would not marry her.

The next day, the man went out and down the streets looking for the woman, and he was lucky enough to see her again without much effort, because she lived in the alley next to the tea plantation. He also heard a news: the woman has not yet married, but she has already decided on a family and will marry next spring.

This news is not bad for a man, because he has always been tenacious and resolute, and he will never back down until he achieves his goal, so he feels that he still has hope before she is married.

He rented a yard next to the woman's house, approached the woman's elderly parents quietly, and silently pleased the two old men. The woman's parents admired the young man who was a good talker and had deep pockets, but even so, they did not express the slightest hint of wanting to cancel their daughter's engagement and marry her to someone else.

Men are in a hurry, especially when the woman's wedding date is slowly approaching. He often looked at the figure of a woman in a daze, but his mind was full of scenes of her marrying another woman.

Fortunately, God favors men very much.

The son of the woman's family died in an accident, and it is said that he died a tragic death, and was hit on the head by a flower pot that fell from the sky, and the top of his skull blossomed on the spot, and his brain flowed to the ground.

Men empathize with women's misfortunes on the surface, but secretly they are irrepressibly happy. He could not deceive himself: the loss of a young life was worthy of sympathy, but it had fulfilled himself, removing the stone that had been weighing on his heart for a long time.

From then on, he went to the women's homes more often, and was attentive and thoughtful, helping them through this bleak time.

Finally one day, the woman's mother pretended not to care and said in front of him: This girl in my family has a hard life, and I don't know if I will find someone in the future.

The man knew that this sentence was specifically said to himself, he was ecstatic, but he forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart, and only lightly answered: She is very good, how can she not find the right person.

Childe, do you think so too?

Of course.

The man looked at the woman's mother intently, and suppressed the excited voice: I don't know if I have this blessing?

If it's you, it's even better.

After saying this, the old lady went into the house, and seemed a little embarrassed. The man was left alone in the courtyard, slowly waiting for his frantic heartbeat to calm down. He remembered that the flowers that day seemed to bloom brighter than on other days, and clusters were obliquely overhead, like full and unrestrained "Xi" characters.

Later, the woman naturally married him, and he still remembers the lively scene when he hired a wedding sedan chair carried by eight people to pick her up, and he also remembers her shy face when she lifted her hijab. He thought that if he married the person he wanted, he would be satisfied and his life would be smooth. But he didn't expect that his married life was not as good as he imagined, on the contrary, he felt that he had walked into a rugged road full of fetters, and his life was not like this, like falling into purgatory on earth.

"What happened after the marriage?" Song Yao asked in a whisper, and in the dark, she felt his hand grope the back of her hand and hold her hand tightly, as if she would suddenly give birth to wings and fly away.

She ...... It turned out to be a restless woman. Qiu Ran laughed in a trembling voice, with a bit of nervousness in his voice.

The first time he found her was on the third day of their marriage, when he came home from outside, but he couldn't find her anywhere. Just when he was in a hurry to find her, he found her in a remote bamboo forest on the west side of the house.

At that time, it was just after Qingming, and it was the season of bamboo shoots, and she stood in this bamboo forest, bending down and pulling a fresh bamboo shoot hard.

The bamboo shoots were very deep, so after pulling them out for a while, she sweated, and her clothes stuck to her body, outlining her graceful figure. He looked a little stupid, and just wanted to step forward to help, but found that a person walked into the bamboo forest one step ahead of him.

It is a small guy in the house, named Wang Er.

"Of course it's not Wang'er, but the names of the two of them are the same." Qiu Ran laughed dryly and explained to Song Yao.

Song Yao held her breath, "What did Wang Er do?" ”

He went in to help, and called out to the young lady, but the hand clearly touched her hand. Qiu Ran's voice was colder than his hands.

After this incident, the man quietly sent Wang Er away. However, he also paid more and more attention to his wife, who seemed to be virtuous and virtuous. He tried to minimize the number of times he went out, carefully observed her, tested her with words, and even turned back after deliberately going out, just to see if she had done anything to be sorry for herself.

After observing the scene for half a moon like this, I was really caught by a man with evidence that women do not abide by women's morals.

For example, she goes to the stove too many times, and every time she goes, the guy who delivered the food is there. For example, after Wang Er left, the servant who replaced him once mentioned women in front of men, and he said that his wife treated him very kindly, like a younger brother.

My brother......

The man snorted in his heart: If you didn't look a little like the man who died early with her, would she be like this?

Such evidence is gathered more and more, and over time, the man discovers that every move of a woman has another meaning in his eyes. She didn't talk to herself as much as she did when she was at home, and when the two were together, she mostly did her own thing silently, ignoring her own love. What is even more strange is that she sometimes tells him that he is going to visit his parents, but in fact he has gone somewhere else, and he asks the palanquin man, and the palanquin man says that the woman has indeed stopped at the rouge shop and the pastry shop, and has been in the shop for a long time.
