Chapter 23: Strange
In the past few days in Jinzhou, Jin You has not seemed so idle.
There is no slavery in Jinzhou, and there is a voluntary job. The land was divided evenly and there were no excessive taxes.
But Jinzhou seems to be so beautiful, but in fact, there is a power struggle in the interior, most of the merchants are related to the imperial court, and almost all the salt merchants are from one person, who is it, Jin You can't find out at all.
The southern sun is still so soft in winter.
Jin You opened the window, and the sun shone on his eyes all of a sudden, and there was still some glitching.
It's time to go out and get sunburned. Ren Jing has long been glued to Jin You at this hour every day.
Jin You put on a white veil to cover his face, walked to Ren Jing's door, and found Ren Jing sneakily lying on the table and tinkering with something through the crack in the door.
Jin You couldn't see clearly, but he was curious.
"Hey. Rich and noble. Jin You gently pushed the door open, but Ren Jing was frightened by this small sound, and hurriedly packed up the things on the table, as if he didn't want Jin You to see it. If he has any little secrets of his own, Jin You knows what it means to be proportionate.
She pretended not to see anything and invited him to go out for a yo, and he agreed.
Jin You bought some fruit, and when he took it for Jin You, he suddenly found that there was something wrong with his hand, Jin You grabbed it, and his big hand was between two fingers, but Ren Jing was a little evasive and took it back embarrassed.
"Where did you get this injury?"
Ren Jing thought about it for a while, and found an excuse to answer: "Yesterday, when I went to the thatched house, I saw a puppy, I teased him, but who knew that it bit me instead, but fortunately I reacted quickly, just a small cut." ”
"You still can't fight the puppy?" Jin You hid his face and laughed, and Ren Jing also smirked.
Jin You knew he was making excuses, but he still thought he was funny.
"Girl?"
Jin You heard someone calling her, it was an old woman, the woman had vaguely seen it somewhere, but she just couldn't remember, but most of the old women looked similar, and Jin You didn't think much about it. But the strange thing is holding a basket of fiery red hibiscus flowers, how can there be hibiscus in this place?
Jin You looked at the white-haired old woman and was very puzzled.
"The girl is from out of town." The old woman looked at Jin You with a wrinkled face.
"What's the matter, old woman?"
"I've lived here all my life, and I see that you are fateful, this basket of flowers is given to you!" As she spoke, the old woman stuffed the basket to Jinyou.
"How can I ...... this" Jin You excused, and Ren Jing said embarrassedly on the side: "Old woman, since you are a flower seller, how can you give it away?" ”
"Ah, yes." Ren Jing took out a tael of silver and gave it to the old woman. to put this basket under his hands.
When the old woman saw the silver, she seemed to be a little angry, and she babbled: "Bullying an old woman who has no money, isn't it, take it and take it!" ”
Jin You was embarrassed to shirk with an old man, so he accepted it.
"Flowers with beauty." The old woman walked away with her hands behind her back. Jin You picked up a flower, thoughtful.
The woman selling vegetables on the side mysteriously took Jin Yula aside and whispered, "This mother-in-law is a madman." ”
"It doesn't look like much." Jin You looked at the woman in disbelief.
The woman seemed to have turned on her gossip mode, and said a lot of "toot tuo".
"This old woman killed her parents when she was young, and she killed her man when she got married! No children...... I was really hard-hitting, and I lived to be eighty years old. ”
"Ah, this ......" Ren Jing was a little scared.
Superstition Jin You naturally didn't believe it, but felt sorry for her.
"And what does she live on?" Jin You asked.
"Selling flowers every day, relying on decades of chaste archway, the county yamen gives her some silver flowers every month."
"I haven't remarried for decades, tsk." Ren Jing seemed to talk to the woman more and more energetically.
“……”
Jin You didn't listen to what they were saying, but just remembered that: they hadn't been married for decades. How does a woman support her whole life like this?
Ren Jing seemed to be thirsty, and only then did he remember that there was another person next to him, so he began to pull Jin You away.
"We often come to chat." The woman selling vegetables shouted at Ren Jing.
"Hey, okay, big sister." Usually Jin You doesn't like to talk, and there is no place to say some things if you want to say, but I happened to meet a "long-tongued woman", and I chatted about it, and the whole person was in a good mood.
"Smack!"
The sound of knocking on the wooden table made Ren Jing startled, and they followed the sound to see that a forty or fifty-year-old man in the teahouse next to him had not put down his hand holding Xingmu, and a group of people in the teahouse applauded.
He took a few steps forward, shook off the fan in a way that he thought was chic, and began to speak with the flammy mouth that he had just finished eating, Jin You smiled and was about to turn around.
Mr. Storyteller fanned his fan and shouted in his throat, "Last time, we said that there are six gods in the world who are now well-known in the world, one is Mr. Jiang Lin in the war era, a righteous man who has followed the general to fight all his life, good at strategy, knows how to manufacture weapons and firearms, and is proficient in everything in Qimen Dunjia, which is amazing. ”
"Good! Good! ”
The group of people below began to applaud, and Jin You and Ren Jing also paused.
He took a sip of water proudly and continued: "The second is idiot wine, proficient in illusion, can create a maze, and make it impossible to distinguish between true and false reality. He is nameless, but he loves wine as much as his life, and he has no money, isn't he called idiot wine? ”
"Hahaha! Good! ”
"The third is the son of the founding of the country, Gongsun Jiwen, who is good at medicine and poison, and the fourth is that Cheng Mingnian of the Biantang Dynasty, good at light skills, good at swordsmanship, and love poetry, books, literature and science, but he fell in love with an Oiran of the Biantang Dynasty, tsk, the future!"
"It's true, it's a pity ......"
The people below shook their heads, and Jin You was fascinated by the listen, and took a few steps forward.
"Five, it is the seventeen-year-old Yu You camp owner Yu Yu, today, the sixth, I will talk about the redundant sister, Jin You."
The two of them listened, and curiously continued to want to listen, how did this deceptive words from the mouth of the storyteller spread her to the present day.
"This Jin You, she looks like a fairy, and she is more charming than a fairy, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she looks like a banshee, there are rumors that she is a white fox from Qi Country where she came from! Proficient in the art of disguise, he seduced the stupid prince of Qi State, he knew that the emperor loved him the most, and he climbed up to the crown prince of Great Qi, you look at women! Gee. ”
The storyteller spread his hands, and the people below echoed for a while.
Today, the sun is hot, and Jin You's skin hurts, and her heart is dry, Jin You hot ripped off her veil and wiped the sweat on her forehead, she had the urge to kill him with a knife in her heart.
"And ah, it's rumored that his own brother also loves her very much, isn't this **? The three of them fought, Nangong Jue, the son of the prime minister of Qi, and Qi Hua, the second son of Emperor Qi, also saw this woman, and they also wanted to, out of the internal coaxing, the emperor was angry, didn't he almost end Yu Youying? ”
Ren Jing was angry and wanted to rush forward, but after taking two steps, he was pushed out by the people who were fascinated by the listening, and Jin You signaled him not to move, and the storyteller fanned his fan again, and said:
"Jinyou, the white fox, still has a little conscience, he feels that what he did is wrong, and he jumped off the ten thousand feet of the Qi country in front of dozens of people, actually! Miraculously resurrected two years later! ”
"Huh? Is she really a demon? ”
The half-year-old junior was pouring water for the storyteller, but he was too obsessed to listen to it, and he couldn't help but say something.
"What a demon, your mother's whole family is a demon!"
The voice was like a cloud, they all looked at the young man who scolded angrily, and the storyteller was about to say with a fan, but a group of eyes fell on Jin You, and the whole lively street market suddenly fell silent.
Person? Immortal? Goblin? Ghost? God?
How could she look like that?
The storyteller was confused, but he couldn't make a sound, Xu cleared his throat for his own image: "That Jinyou may be as smart as this woman." ”
Water spirits? At this time, the word water spirit?
