Verse 41: Hate alone is vain
Miss Yang finally felt bored and had to withdraw from this elegant gathering, Xiao Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief, and this was considered a pass. Yang Yuanwai also saw Mei Yuexue not looking at her daughter at all, although she was angry in her heart, but she was helpless, so she had to accompany her as usual. Xiao Wei saw that the situation was not good, so he whispered to Mei Yuexue: "Si Shichun is such a famous name, the boss still doesn't dare to provoke him, forcing you to go down the mountain and enter the city, this Yang Yuan is afraid that he is very famous in the county, this time the two of us will make him unhappy, I am afraid that our business will be affected in the future." ”
Mei Yuexue smiled evilly: "Don't be afraid, I have a way!" Seeing this, Xiao Wei knew that he was going to make a bad move, so he nodded excitedly and waited to watch the show.
The literati saw that the master's face was not good, and they also felt embarrassed, so they left one after another, Mei Yuexue also dispersed with everyone, and when they arrived at the door, several sons were still talking and did not leave, and when they saw Mei Yuexue, they wanted to invite Mei Yuexue to eat wine, Mei Yuexue said generously: "The younger brother has just arrived, and the younger brother has this Yaxing, then the younger brother should go back to the east, and the younger brother invites everyone to eat and drink." Someone invited everyone to be happy, a few polite words were taken by Mei Yuexue to the Yan Tower, Mei Yuexue made a bold move, chartered a private room, bought pure brewed delicacies, expensive tea and exquisite snacks, everyone was secretly surprised in their hearts, they all thought that he lived a poor life in the mountains and forests, but they didn't expect him to be so generous. These people are all scholars with real talents, because they can talk to Mei Yuexue, the banquet is not yet fun, so they came to the restaurant with him to have a small gathering, Mei Yuexue is so entertained, obviously they value them, and now these scholars have a good impression of Mei Yuexue in their hearts.
Speaking of Yang Yuanwai's banquet, Mei Yuexue said: "This time Yang Yuanwai was quite unhappy, probably because I was not good and disrespectful to Miss Yang." ”
A son surnamed Chen said: "If you want to say it, they are all to blame for their own bad feelings, Yang Yuanwai is a businessman, and his family has money to donate such an idle job outside the staff, he knows what Yaji is?" Miss Yang is indeed studious, she has a long reputation, Yang Yuanwai is very fond of this daughter, you see that Miss Yang deliberately held the fan you painted by Mei Gongzi, isn't this just that people are coming at you! We are all brothers' foils! ”
Mei Yuexue took a sip of wine rather embarrassed and said, "I don't know about it, it's just ...... Hi! I already have someone in my heart, if I show mercy to Miss Yang again, will it be a gentleman's doing? I only want to treat one person with all my heart, even if I want to offend people, it is helpless. When he spoke, he kept staring at the people around him affectionately, and the face under her veil, knowing that it was a play, was really hot.
Chen Gongzi said: "It's nothing to offend him, his little fame is just a scene for everyone to praise him and give him face, but now he uses your reputation to invite so many of us to be a foil, there are a few confused guys with small bellies and chicken intestines, and he blames you for the matter, but what's wrong with you, you are just invited by him to be inexplicably squeezed out, what does he treat us as scholars?" said that if you want to go, you have to go, and when we go, it doesn't suit his heart, and he throws his face at us, which is really insulting! ”
Mei Yuexue saw that the atmosphere was provoked and also lowered her head and sighed: "I didn't know what Yang Yuanwai's idea was, and when he was sincere in exchanging calligraphy and painting, I think I have lived in the mountains for a long time, and occasionally come to the city, take a look at the fireworks in this world, and make some friends It is also good, and it will be very beneficial to paint in the future. Where does that really start?" He drank with a sad face, pretending to be weak and innocent, which made people feel pitiful, Chen Gongzi was also a straight intestine, and said frankly: "Don't worry about Gongzi, if no one comes to commit it in the future, if anyone dares to say how Gongzi is, I will be the first to go up and reason with him!" ”
Mei Yuexue persuaded: "Forget it, why be angry about such a trivial matter, as long as my Wei'er is fine, others can think whatever they like!" Chen Gongzi should no longer be angry with them, but make me worried. Although it was a little unpleasant to go to Yang Yuanwai's house this time, I was able to meet so many good friends from everyone, and it was worth the trip. ”
Everyone raised their glasses and drank them all.
Everyone gossiped casually, Mei Yuexue just pretended to be weak and pitiful to show affection, and some of the others were filled with righteous indignation, saying that Yang Yuanwai was bullying and persecuting Mei Yuexue, and some people envied Mei Yuexue and his Wei'er, saying that the two of them were fairy couples.
The noisy and noisy drinking and reciting poetry were more enjoyable than drinking at Yang Yuanwai's house, and it didn't end until the sunset.
Out of the restaurant, Xiao Wei followed him back to the village with an umbrella in the back without saying a word, Mei Yuexue was proud, and finally kept her reputation, if there is any criticism in the future, she will also have someone to support her, he has done such a beautiful thing, and he is waiting for Xiao Wei to praise him, at least he has to say something, but when he saw her heavy steps and heavy heart, he felt strange and asked: "What's wrong with you, why don't you speak?" ”
Xiao Wei said whimfully: "It's nothing, I'm just tired!" ”
"Oh-" Mei Yuexue had nothing to say: "Hey, thank you today, if you don't go with me, I'm afraid that the girls in this city will fall in love with me, wouldn't that be a sin hahaha......" He smiled and felt that this was a little dry, so he cleared his throat and stopped talking, he was still waiting for Xiao Wei to reply, but Xiao Wei just glanced at him lazily, and said lightly: "You're welcome." And he said no more.
Mei Yuexue didn't know what was wrong with her, seeing that she was unhappy, somehow, she felt like she had a pair of little claws scratching in her heart, and she was itchy and restless, so she pestered and asked: "Oh, what's wrong with you, wasn't it okay to go back to Yanlou just now, why is it like this now?" I didn't recruit you either! ”
It's good that he didn't say this, but as soon as he said this, Xiao Wei was like a cannon battle that was only ignited, and immediately said angrily: "Yes, you didn't recruit me, then I'm angry with myself, what do you ask!" After saying that, he walked forward even more angrily.
Mei Yuexue was confused, and said inexplicably: "Yes, I didn't recruit you, so why are you angry at me!" What do you mean by that I recruited you? Then you can make it clear whether I recruit you or not! ”
Xiao Wei said angrily: "I said it has nothing to do with you, you still ask!" You ask me, I don't yell at me, who are you yelling! ”
Mei Yuexue was even more puzzled, but she didn't dare to ask, so she recalled everything she had done today, and she really couldn't think of anything to be angry about, so she simply ignored her.
When he went back, Xiao Wei put the umbrella on the boat, just stunned in a daze, didn't say a word, and finally dragged the umbrella ashore, and even poked it twice on the ground with some annoyance. Mei Yuexue couldn't stand it anymore and said angrily: "What are you doing, what kind of tantrum are you throwing attenious!" If you want to be angry, you can just say it, why can't you get along with an umbrella. ”
Xiao Wei turned her head and glared at him suddenly, Mei Yuexue was tormented by her sulking along the way, and now she saw her destroying the umbrella she had worked so hard to draw in front of her, so she couldn't hold it anymore, and directly ignored Xiao Wei's angry gaze and quarreled angrily: "I'll tell you, if you have something, you can tell me that you are white, if you don't say it, then you can't complain that I don't know!" Who are you trying to poke this umbrella for, I didn't provoke you, why are you doing this, if you don't like it, you will burn it and throw it away, what do you mean by poking it in front of me? ”
Xiao Wei had already taken off her veil at this time, and when she saw that her eyes and nose were red, she couldn't hold back anymore and cried: "You are yelling at me so hard now, you won't need me when I finish doing things for you, right?" This umbrella is mine, and what I do to it is my business, you just can't get used to me, so what I do is wrong! Why did I throw it away, did you say such things on purpose to make me feel bad? ”
The brothers were stunned, no one knew what was going on, let alone what to do, seeing Xiao Wei crying aggrievedly, a group of old men just hurriedly persuaded her not to cry. The monkey found out and rushed over, seeing that the atmosphere around him was not right, and Xiao Wei had always been happy like a little lark, and had never cried in front of them, even if he followed the brothers up the mountain and was scratched by a branch, rubbed by a stone, and caught a crab in the river, he never saw her unhappy at all, let alone crying, not to mention crying so wronged, the monkey knew that something was wrong, so he hurried to Lamei Yuexue, covered his mouth and told him not to talk anymore, Let Lin Yi and the brothers who stepped forward to help drag Mei Yuexue away, and Lao Liu helped Xiao Wei wipe her tears while coaxing: "Oh, who made my good girl unhappy, grandpa knocked him on the head with a stick!" ”
Xiao Wei hugged Lao Liu aggrievedly and cried, and everyone coaxed her for a long time before sending her into the house and telling her to rest for a while.
On the other side, Lin Yi took Mei Yuexue away, and Mei Yuexue still complained angrily: "I don't know what crazy I am!" Everyone persuaded him to calm his anger, Mei Yuexue saw that there were many people around, although she was even worse in her heart, she didn't dare to mention it again, but only said: "Forget it, women are troublesome, ignore her, love to cry!" What should we do tonight, we still have to do it, and if we don't know it, hurry up and memorize it, and take the exam tonight! If you can't remember, ask each other, and if you're not sure, you must ask me, so as not to make a mistake! ”
When everyone heard that there was another exam in the evening, their hearts were tight, and if they couldn't memorize it, they would be punished and practiced, and everyone had no intention of talking about Xiao Wei for the time being.
In the evening, after everyone got out of the evening class and everyone went to sleep, Mei Yuexue pulled Lao Bai to the kitchen quietly and asked, "Master Sanzhai, has she eaten tonight?" Lao Bai shook his head and said: "She is holding her breath in her heart, she is still crying when I bring her food, where can I eat!" Mei Yuexue frowned and said: "Dead woman, starve to death, forget about her!" At this time, Lao Liu Soul floated out like a child and said: "How can you just forget it, Dazhai master, you can't be so stingy as a man!" ”
Both of them were taken aback by him, and Mei Yuexue said, "Why don't you sleep yet!" Lao Liu smiled: "When I'm older, I don't sleep much, it's still early, and people who hide things in their hearts can't sleep, right, the master of the village." Mei Yuexue said: "I'm okay in my heart, you mean Lao Bai!" Lao Bai knew what Lao Liu meant and said: "Oh, my wide-hearted and fat appearance, do I look like the kind of person who loves to hide things in my heart?" ”
Lao Liu said: "Okay, don't talk nonsense." The master of Sanzhai has no reason to sprinkle today, I know what's going on, no matter how capable she is, she is also a girl, and it is really difficult for her to be with us a group of rough men for so long. Dazhai master, I am a person from here, I advise you to listen to a word, the girl loses her temper at you is to let you coax her, but you want to reason with her, but this is not who is right or wrong at all, she just wants you to coax her, just like raising a kitten and a puppy, nothing but always like to find something to let you tease it, you today, don't ask her what she did wrong, I teach you a way, she will definitely not make trouble. ”
Mei Yuexue saw that Lao Liu had already cut off his yin with him, and she no longer covered it up, and asked, "What way?" ”
Lao Liu said to Lao Bai: "Do you always put brown sugar in braised vegetables, don't add brown sugar to the sauce stupidly, take it out and give it to the little girl, they can use it." The owner of the village, you understand medical science, you don't understand this golden formula, Miss Xiao has come back to the kitchen more than once to get brown sugar, they all think that Miss Xiao is greedy and wants to eat sweet, doesn't the owner of the village know why? ”
"It's not gluttony or what, could it be that Miss Xiao is sick?" Lao Bai asked Mei Yuexue with a confused face. Mei Yuexue's face turned red and said, "Yes." I really forgot about that. ”
Lao Liu smiled: "Okay, what should the owner of the village do!" ”
Mei Yuexue nodded, Lao Liu yawned, and coaxed Lao Bai away, Mei Yuexue left alone in the kitchen, put the millet porridge cooked at night on the casserole, heated it with the stove used to decoction medicine, and found the wild wolfberries that were picked and dried last year, turned out the brown sugar, put them into the porridge with the wolfberries, and took them to Xiao Wei's room after boiling them.
Xiao Wei didn't fall asleep at this time, she lay on the bed motionless since she came back, she only felt awake for a while and confused for a while, and after a while, she couldn't help crying when she remembered anything bad and sad, and after a while, she felt that her brain was in a daze.
In fact, the origin of today's events has something to do with herself, but it's not all because of this, it's because of Mei Yuexue. Because he was too good to himself in front of others today, which made her very excited, but she knew that it was a play, so she was angry with Mei Yuexue, and hated him for being so good to her, just pretending, and when he came back, he would become the same again.
She also thought that it was not good to be like she was normal, and it was good. She remembered that during the period of time when she and Mei Yuexue became more and more familiar, Mei Yuexue also regarded her as a good friend, but she felt that she was still angry, she didn't want him to just treat her as a good friend in his heart, and even not as a girl, but as a brother!
She was lying on the bed secretly sad and upset, suddenly there was a knock on the door, Mei Yuexue said outside: "I know you didn't sleep, I see you didn't eat dinner, I'm here to bring you food, there are ingredients in the meal, you open the door and take a look at it and decide whether to drive me away!" Mei Yuexue didn't say a word to ask for forgiveness, but she didn't reveal that he came to Xiao Wei to ask for forgiveness.
Xiao Wei was angry enough and didn't want to make any more trouble, he was tired of crying after crying for a long time, got out of bed and opened the door, and saw Mei Yuexue standing with an embarrassed face, holding a big bowl of porridge in her hand, he said: "There are wolfberries and brown sugar in the porridge, you eat and then sleep!" I...... I'm a doctor, just to save people, you don't have to be embarrassed. "But I'm embarrassed that it's him.
Xiao Wei's anger somehow disappeared all of a sudden, and he laughed after a while, and said, "Okay, let's go, let's go." ”
Mei Yuexue said: "No, I watched you eat, and when you finished eating, I will help you take the bowl back, and wash it with your hands, you ...... You don't have to touch the cold water, and you won't let anyone else know. ”
Xiao Wei smiled again, and finished eating the bowl in front of him, and said while eating: "Take such a big bowl to others in the middle of the night, you feed the pigs!" As soon as the words came out, Mei Yuexue couldn't help laughing, Xiao Wei laughed angrily: "I'm really stupid by you!" ”
