Chapter 213: Safflower Wine (17)

Buddhism has clouds: good is rewarded, evil is rewarded, if it is not reported, the time has not come. This cause and effect, like the sound of a blow from both hands, is a natural thing. Although Xing Ruyi is idle in the Yin Division, she can also walk Yin and Yang with her ghost skills and the beauty of the fox's prosperous age, but she herself is unwilling to meddle in her own affairs.

In the matter of Li Nan's mother and son, she just used safflower wine to punish her slightly, and by the way, she explained safflower. Fortunately, Honghua was a kind and generous woman, even if she had some resentment in her heart because of the death of her daughter and herself, it slowly faded away with the passage of time. Now, it can be regarded as a complete drop and ready to start a new life.

Li Nan woke up from his dream and was really in a trance for a while.

The first thing he did after he sobered up was to go to the graves of his father and grandmother to ask for guilt, and then go to the government office for the record, and moved the graves of Honghua's mother and daughter to the ancestral grave of the Li family, and as for the letter of resignation, he also burned it.

Li Nanniang was seriously ill, and Xing Ruyi took the opportunity to see a doctor to quietly take out the trace of resentment that belonged to safflower left in the safflower wine, and instructed Li Nanniang to continue to take it.

A week later, the weather was fine, and Xing Ruyi also packed up and prepared to set off, following the fox to Qingqiu. Chang Tai and Xiao Shengzi went out on business, and they also made an appointment with Xing Ruyi to meet at a location. As for Xie Xuan's side, when he learned that Xing Ruyi was going to return to his hometown with the fox to get married, he also generously gave Chang Tai and Xiao Shengzi a three-month vacation, and by the way, he also gave his own congratulatory gifts. After the punishment Ruyi pushed and gave in, he also accepted it.

After Siniang properly arranged the wine in the wine shop, she also asked her mother's brother to take care of it, and planned to accompany Xing Ruyi to Qingqiu with the bell.

The day before departure, Xing Ruyi helped her pack up at Si Niang's house, but Li Nan followed behind the bell and entered the door hesitantly.

"The torture treasurer is also here?"

"Li Gongzi?" Xing Ruyi put down the things in his hand, pointed at himself, and then pointed at Siniang: "Are you here to find me, or are you here to find Siniang to buy wine?" ”

"Little ...... Xiaosheng is looking for Siniang! Li Nan was a little embarrassed, "That's the case, I heard Uncle Li say that Siniang is planning to go far away, this mountain is high and the road is far away, I am afraid that she will be bored on the road, so I found some recipes for winemaking, so that Siniang can relieve her boredom on the road." ”

"I can't imagine that Li Gongzi, you are still such a caring person?" Xing Ruyi said and took the prescription.

The recipe for making wine, at first glance, is hand-copied, the handwriting is neat, the pen and ink have not dried up, and from the thickness point of view, it should be copied by staying up all night. It's also a very attentive parting gift.

"Siniang thanks Gongzi for his kindness, but it is useless, and Siniang really can't receive this gift." Li Siniang returned the wine recipe to Li Nan: "I heard my brother say that my aunt's spirit has been much better in recent days, and it is difficult for you to take care of your son day and night." It's not too early, Siniang still needs to pack her luggage, so she won't be far away. ”

Li Siniang's words clearly meant that she was driving people away, Li Nan heard it, and didn't say anything more, turned around and went out.

"I read that the wine recipe was copied quite carefully, you really don't want it?"

"What kind of good thing can this thing be sent to the door for no reason, Siniang, I'm just afraid that it will be hot."

"It's not necessarily hot, but Siniang, you just broke someone's heart." Xing Ruyi Nunu mouthed: "I don't believe you didn't see it, then Li Nan is interested in you." ”

"Don't! I, Li Siniang, don't have that blessing. Li Siniang waved her hand: "My brother and he are neighbors, and I also know some things about their family." Just his mother, don't say it's me, even if you enter the door, it may not be easy. ”

"It's really sad, but the person who is sad must not be me, but his own mother!" Xing Ruyi blinked his eyes: "I have a principle for being a person and doing things. That is, if you are good to me, I am good to you, and if you are not good to me, I will be even worse to you. There is only one way to deal with this kind of vitriolic mother-in-law, that is, you are more fierce, more vicious, and more bitter than her, and let her know that your daughter-in-law can't be provoked. Of course, in front of people, you must also know how to act, at least put on the appearance of a good daughter-in-law, so that no one will believe your mother-in-law when she goes out to complain. As for Xianggong's side? You have to be more coquettish, blow more pillow wind, and occasionally show weakness and pretend to be pitiful, so that your father-in-law feels that everything you do is just forced to be helpless, and you can't help but fight back because you have no choice but to be bullied by his mother. After the counterattack, he had to make a look of regret and kneeling to admit his mistakes. ”

"My God, fortunately, that Li Nan didn't marry you as a daughter-in-law!" Li Siniang was stunned when she heard it, and she looked very shocked. "Could it be that you use these methods to deal with Yin Gongzi on weekdays?"

"I'd like to, but it's a pity that my routine is completely useless." Xing Ruyi spread his hands helplessly: "The fox's father and mother are long gone, so even if I marry in, I don't have to think about those parents-in-law at all." Taking a step back, even if the fox's father and mother are still there, do you think that the father and mother who can teach a man as good as the fox will be as bitter and mean as Li Nan's mother? Even if the fox's father and mother are not easy to get along with, and the fox spoils me and gets used to me, will he allow his father and mother to bully me? ”

Li Siniang shook her head: "I can see that Yin Gongzi cares more about you than about himself, and he must be reluctant to embarrass your father and mother." ”

"It's his business whether he is reluctant to give it up, and as far as I'm concerned, it's absolutely impossible for someone else's parents to bully me? Of course, if it's my fault, I should be beaten and scolded, but if it's okay to find trouble, I'm sorry, my body is affected by my parents, how can you be bullied and scolded by an outsider at will. Big deal, I'll let the fox divorce his wife or I'll just divorce my husband,

One shot and two scattered, one hundred! ”

"My God, Ruyi, you are really a strange woman, such a remark, even the empress of our dynasty would not dare to say it!" Li Siniang shook her head helplessly, and finally understood what Chang Tai said before.

Chang Tai once said that the difference between him and Yin Gongzi is not a distance between a first and a last, but that Yin Gongzi can tolerate and fully accept the unbelievable views in Xing Ruyi's mind, and can even grow freely by her. It is precisely such a unique punishment Ruyi that will involuntarily attract the attention of others, but if the person she wants to marry is not Yin Gongzi, but any other man in the Tang Dynasty, even if she loves her and spoils her again, she will be imprisoned unconsciously, and then slowly turn her into one of the countless similar women in the Tang Dynasty.

"For you women who are good wives and mothers, I am not only a strange woman, but also a big strange woman!"

"Wonderful! What do you mean? ”

"Wonderful, the original meaning refers to a strange and beautiful flower, used as a metaphor for very outstanding things, but also for people or things to behave uniquely and differently. But in my hometown, strange is sometimes a derogatory term, just to say that this person is very strange, very unsociable, very different. In short, it's different from ordinary people. ”

"I think the previous explanation is good, and it is very suitable for you. In my eyes, Ruyi you are the most peculiar and beautiful one among the many women in our Tang Dynasty. ”

"Gotcha! Don't praise me, because I'm so easy to be proud! Xing Ruyi laughed first as he spoke: "Actually, I just said those words just now. Whether it's the so-called routines or scheming, there are a few people who really don't understand, but it's hard to see and think clearly like us outsiders.

If the person I fall in love with really has a difficult mother like Li Nan, I may not be able to be as free and easy as I say, after all, my lover is also a stumbling block in married life. As far as my personality is concerned, Siniang, you have also seen it, if I really encounter that kind of thing, it is estimated that I will only hit it hard, and in the end I hurt others and hurt myself, like that kind of thing that blows the wind on the pillow and pretends to be pitiful, I can't do it at all, and I don't bother to do it at all. ”

"Fortunately, you met Yin Gongzi!"

"Yes, I'm glad I met a fox, otherwise I don't know how pitiful I would have been."

Xing Ruyi said, shaking her head, I really can't imagine what she would do if there were no foxes in this world. Perhaps, she will also meet Chang Tai and marry him.

Although Chang Tai will also spoil her and love her, after all, he is still a man who grew up in the mortal world, and he will also look at her with the eyes of ordinary people and criticize her with the requirements of ordinary people. At that time, she must not have been really happy, she was really happy.

Thinking of Chang Tai, Xing Ruyi secretly sighed in his heart. Brother Chang's age is not young, and when she comes back from Qingqiu, she must help Brother Chang find a suitable confidant.

Here, Xing Ruyi was thinking nonsense, but over there, Li Siniang brought the topic back to Li Nan.

"I heard that the Li family originally found a matchmaker to go to the Zhou family to propose marriage, and Zhou Yuanwai also asked someone to check Li Nan's situation, although he has a lot of complaints about his background, it can be seen that he has good knowledge, he looks good, and there is no drag at home, and he also thinks he is a suitable recruiter. Who knows, when the Zhou family decided to meet Li Nan, they actually received a secret letter, in which not only described in detail what Li Nan's mother and son did to Honghua's mother and daughter, but also stated that the reason why Li Nan wanted to join the Zhou family was the property of the Zhou family. ”

"From this point of view, Li Nan's desire to join the Zhou family is going to be yellow!" Although Xing Ruyi shook his head, his eyes were full of gossip. As for the secret letter mentioned in Siniang's mouth, you don't have to think about it, you also know that it was Yin Yuan's kid who did it. Because he promised Li Lu to help her get justice, and also to help her irresponsible father find a fierce daughter-in-law, so that the mother and son could taste the taste of being bullied by meanness.

"That's right, this matter of Li Nan wanting to join the Zhou family was originally going to be yellow. But who knows, after the young lady of the Zhou family heard about this, she persuaded Zhou Yuanwai to agree. said that she had a relationship with Honghua and had also received help from Honghua, so she wanted to help them recover the debts of Honghua's mother and daughter. ”

"It sounds like Miss Zhou is also a powerful lord this week!"

"Isn't it? This Miss Zhou family is the real head of the Zhou family. Li Siniang said, smiling meaningfully: "I also had a relationship with Miss Zhou's family. Speaking of which, her temperament is somewhat similar to Ruyi's. It's just that Ruyi has a powerful mouth, but a soft heart, that Miss Zhou family seems to be generous and kind, but in fact she is very hard-hearted. If it weren't for this, the Zhou family would not have had today's industry in just a few years. ”

"Although the heart is hard, there is a clear distinction between good and evil, otherwise Miss Zhou would not have helped the mother and daughter of Honghua seek justice."

"This is true, that Miss Zhou has been doing business with Zhou since she was a child. This mall is like a battlefield, and it is not uncommon for me to cheat. Be hard-hearted to survive. In private, that Miss Zhou is also a good person, and she often helps the poor, but she doesn't let others say it. ”

"But marriage is not a child's play after all, if you just want to help the safflower mother and daughter get justice, you have to take your own marriage, this transaction is too much of a loss." Xing Ruyi held his chin: "In my opinion, Miss Zhou's family must have other considerations!" ”

"I really can't hide anything from you!" Li Siniang also laughed: "That's right! Miss Zhou's choice of son-in-law this time is to make Zhou Yuanwai feel at ease, and secondly, to block the mouths of those clansmen of the Zhou family. Those people all have the heart of a tiger and a wolf, and they want to take the Zhou family's property for themselves, so it is inevitable to choose a son-in-law. ”

"This Li Nan has passed the township examination, and he has some pen and ink articles in his belly, and he is a native of Luoyang, who knows the roots, and there is only a widowed mother in the family, and the six relatives have no dependence, which is considered to be the best choice. Looks, although not as good as one-ten-thousandth of my fox, but it is also considered to have good facial features, and when he is dressed neatly, he looks like that kind of humble gentleman. Xing Ruyi wrenched his fingers: "Moreover, this Li Nan wants to join the Zhou family, it is nothing more than coveting the financial resources of the Zhou family, and wants to live a good life without worrying about food and clothing, and judging from the incident where he dealt with the safflower, this person is actually very shallow and does not have much ability, according to Miss Zhou's intelligence, it is easy to control him." Moreover, with that secret letter, it is equivalent to holding another shortcoming of Li Nan. A husband who has a handle in his own hands is naturally better to control than the husband next to him. Therefore, these are the reasons why Miss Zhou finally chose Li Nan.

Is this the truth, is it the real thinking of Miss Zhou in the depths of her heart, in fact, we don't have to guess, I only know that if this Li Nan really became the son-in-law of the Zhou family, life must not be easy! ”

"At least it won't be as good as Li Nan and Li Nanniang thought!" Li Siniang said, also covering her mouth and laughing.

The Li family, Li Nanniang was looking at the post handed by the Zhou family, smiling happily, and even the sick face faded a little.

The mother sent by the Zhou family took Li Nanniang's expression into her eyes, and then showed a sarcastic smile. She straightened her body and said, "Madame is still satisfied with what is written on this post?" If you are satisfied, you will find an auspicious day and send your son to my house, as for this dowry or something, our Zhou family will send someone to send it later. ”

"Satisfied! Satisfied! Li Nanniang nodded again and again, "If Miss Zhou becomes the daughter-in-law of our Li family, then should I, as a mother-in-law, also enter the Zhou family?" ”

"Mrs. Li probably misunderstood, your son-in-law is a wealthy family, so it is not our young lady who has become your Li family's daughter-in-law, but your son-in-law has become our Zhou Mansion's aunt. As for you, Madam, if you want to enter the Zhou Mansion with you, you can't do it, after all, this week's family has added Ding, and you also need to add a few more old mothers who are waiting for people. ”

"Serve ...... An old mother who serves people? Li Nanniang's face darkened.

"Although she is an old mother, Mrs. Li is the mother-in-law of her son after all, so the treatment must be different. Madame needs to know, your son-in-law is rich, and this son-in-law's mother entered the house with him, so it's not appropriate to say it, right? Mother Zhou glanced at the courtyard of the Li family: "Besides, my Zhou family has a big business, even if it is an old mother who serves people, the food and clothes are better than now." Madame, you can consider it! ”

Li Nanniang gritted her teeth, thinking to herself, after all, I am Li Nan's mother, if I really enter the Zhou family, you Miss Zhou can really use me as a servant. So, he also changed his face and said, "Don't think about it! Please also reply to Zhou Yuanwai and say that I am willing. Besides, this mother-in-law also needs to take care of her son and daughter-in-law. ”

What kind of person is Mother Zhou, she saw Li Nanniang's plan at a glance, sneered, and turned around and went out.

The sky outside was gloomy, and a few snowflakes were falling slowly, and there was still a heavy snow in Luoyang City.

Li Nan returned from the Li family's wine shop, and when he and Zhou's mother staggered by, they glanced at each other. The plum blossoms in the corner of the wall bloomed, revealing a delicate red, and Li Nan suddenly thought of the safflower on the wedding night.
