The woman glared at me wryly, then at Millie on the side, sighed, and told us what she had experienced. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The woman's name is Li Niang, she was the head of the flower Jiaolou on the bank of the Qinhuai River, she was sold to a brothel since she was a child, because of her good appearance and good voice, she was trained by the old bustard of the brothel to become a generation of singers, Li Niang was born beautiful, singing around, so she won the title of several Oiran in the local area and became a smash hit.
At that time, countless dignitaries and talents fell under the pomegranate skirt of Li Niang, and everyone spent money to see the red face, and countless dignitaries were even willing to pay sky-high honorarium to redeem her, just to be favored by the beauties.
But the arrogant Li Niang rejected many suitors and their mountains of gold and silver jewelry, she only had her Dong Lang in her heart, Dong Lang's family has been specially fired porcelain for the official family for generations, as a single biography of the family, Dong Lang in the strict teaching of his parents since childhood familiar with poetry and books full of economy, talented and intelligent he won the Jinshi and the first in the imperial examination in one fell swoop, after the high school Jinshi, he went to Huajiaolou with other fellow Jinshi to celebrate, that night was also the first meeting between him and Li Niang, the two fell in love at first sight, The first time we met, we admired each other.
In that night of laughter and laughter, Li Niang declined the gold and silver of countless dignitaries, and specially served by Dong Lang's side, so that Dong Lang's fellow scholars were not envious, after a night of clouds and rain, the two made a vow of "willing to win the heart of one person, and the white head will not be separated", after which Li Niang no longer picks up customers at will, and she really can't shirk it is only a show of art and not a body, she wants to guard Dong Lang like a jade.
Waiting is painful, Dong Lang's family dislikes Liniang is a Hongchen woman has been reluctant to agree to this family business, and Dong Lang's inadaptability to officialdom also made him end his career early and go home to inherit the family business of porcelain, things are so deadlocked, after several years of hard waiting, things finally took a turn, at Dong Lang's insistence, the Dong family finally made a compromise to allow the two to be together, Dong Lang took out a large sum of gold and silver to redeem her and went to Huajiaolou to meet her.
On the day she left Hua Jiaolou, Li Niang and Dong Lang hugged each other tightly, revisiting their original agreement to love only one person in this life and grow old together, but the old bustard who had taken care of her for many years whispered to her that Dong Lang was unreliable, and it was impossible to love her only one person for life.
Follow Dong Lang back to the house to worship and marry, Li Niang devoted herself to her husband and son to serve by Dong Lang's side, the two lived a very happy life, but as time passed, Li Niang's face gradually aged, and Dong Lang's attitude towards her became increasingly cold, a few years later, Dong Lang suddenly took a letter of resignation and handed it to her, saying that he was about to marry the daughter of a rich man in the city as his wife, Li Niang was born in a brothel, and her status was low, and she could not let Miss Qianjin be wronged to make a side house, and asked her to immediately give up the position of the main house.
Li Niang is strong by nature, and after taking the letter of resignation, she pointed to Dong Lang's face and angrily scolded him for seeing different thoughts, has the oath of growing old together and the agreement to love only one person in this life have been forgotten?
Faced with Liniang's questioning, Dong Lang actually said back: "Do you know how many taels of silver I spent on borrowing everywhere in order to ransom you?" In the past few years, my family has been so nervous, and finally a big family appreciates that I am willing to marry my daughter to me to help me pay off my debts, but you are against it, do you love me or hurt me! ”
"I won't let you get your wish, unless I'm dead, I won't let that woman sit in my seat!" The more Li Niang spoke, the more angry she became, and she actually hit Dong Lang's face, not wanting her sharp nails to cut Dong Lang's face, which angered Dong Lang, Dong Lang, who once loved herself, angrily grabbed the scissors on the table and inserted them into Li Niang's heart in a frenzy, Li Niang was extremely sad, she was in pain, but it was not because the sharp scissors pierced her heart and pain, it was because Dong Lang's desperation made her feel heartache and liver and intestines, and this pillow man who accompanied him all the year round actually asked for his life for gold and silver!
Killed Li Niang, Dong Lang threw his wife's body into his own porcelain-burning kiln, the raging fire turned Li Niang's body into ashes, and also burned her soul, fortunately, the stove lord outside the furnace saw her pitiful, and opened an enchantment on the glaze of a vase in the kiln for her to shelter, so as not to suffer from the high temperature of the furnace, but since then, Li Niang, who has become a ghost hiding in the bottle world, has seen through the men in the world, and all the men who are indiscriminate, she will suck the soul of the other party into the bottle and become a "stickman" who works outside.
There is only a newcomer laughing, who hears the old man crying, Liniang's despair of Dong Lang is transformed into resentment towards a man who is not firm in love in the world, so that it still can't be resolved after a thousand years.
The sky was starting to get dark, the sun was rapidly fading behind the clouds, and my keen instincts told me that I had to hurry up and go back, and if the light was gone, we would never be able to leave the place again.
"I can understand your pain, why am I not struggling to make a choice, so, I stay, you let Millie out" I looked at Li Niang with fearless eyes.
"If you are truly willing to die for her, then why do you still have someone else in your heart?" Li Niang looked at me with some confusion.
I smiled bitterly, "True love in the world, I'm afraid that the gods in the sky sometimes can't figure it out, life is composed of countless difficult choice questions, we must make these choices in a limited time, I am now suffering from such multiple choice questions, and I can't choose the final answer for a long time."
"Abusive bad man, why hesitate to have such a good face, do you think women are so casual and sacrifice themselves for others?" Li Niang said.
I smiled bitterly and was silent, Millie behind me stepped forward and whispered in the female ghost's ear, Liniang shook her head helplessly at Millie after hearing it, "I always thought I was a fool, but I didn't expect you to be stupider than me!" ”
The sky quickly darkened, and the time seemed to go from noon to night in an instant, and the scorching sunlight in the sky seemed to turn into a soft moonlight.
"I'll ask you one last time, are you really willing to stay here and trade your life for her?" Li Niang whispered in my ear.
I glanced at Millie, and recalled every picture I had with her since I was a child, and when I saw her smile, I always felt beautiful in my heart, could it be that I had liked her since I was very early and I hadn't realized it yet?
I nodded solemnly at Liniang, "Please let her live."
Liniang took Millie's hand and walked slowly to me, grabbing my hand tightly with her cold hand.
"I hope you won't let her down in the future!"
After Li Niang finished speaking, she jumped sharply and pulled Millie and me towards the moonlight hanging high in the sky.
"What did you mean by that, Millie, what did she say to you!" I yelled at Liniang in the strong wind, but she just gave me a blank look and didn't answer my question.
The moon above me was getting bigger and bigger, the bright moonlight was getting more and more dazzling, the dazzling silver light was flickering, I instinctively closed my eyes, and when I opened my eyes again, I found myself lying on the sofa in the Mi family's mansion, Moon Dance, the old lady and Mi Da were surrounding me with concern, and next to me lay Millie, who was still with her eyes closed.
I jerked Millie up and thrust her soft body into my arms, "Millie, what's wrong with you!" Wake up! ”
"Are you worried about me?"
Millie, who was still closed, suddenly opened her eyelids and looked at me with a pair of big watery eyes, and she burst out laughing when she saw the beads of sweat on my head.
"You're scared me to death!" I jerked Millie into my arms.
"What did you say in Liniang's ear that she would like to take us away?" I whispered in Millie's ear.
Millie looked at me with a grin, stretched out a white jade-like finger to her lips and said playfully, "Confidential!" ”。
Since then, the ink and blue vase of Old Man Mi's house has never wafted out of the sad music, and the water-milled blue vase that can absorb people's souls has also been sealed in the soundproof secret room by the old man.
The sound of loom weaving was heard in the darkness.
"You actually said that as long as you can be by his side, you are willing to be a concubine, it's really stupid! Foolish......"
