Sixi moved the small table in the tea room to the side in the dark, there seemed to be tea utensils and soup bottles on the table, and they had to be moved carefully and slowly, otherwise it would be difficult to explain if the utensils on the table were broken, after the small table was moved to the side, he and the young master could sleep more spaciously, sitting on the mat, thirsty, touching the gourd, it was heavily filled with water, he picked up the gourd and put it down, thinking that it was better to let the young master drink it first-

Footsteps sounded, a ball of lantern light came in, in the halo was Zeng Yu's head and face, and the floor could be heard "rattle", which was the book put down-

Sixi hurriedly got up and took the lantern, put it on the tea table, and held the gourd: "Young master, drink water." ”

Zeng Yu took the gourd, drank half of the gourd in one go, breathed a long sigh of relief, handed the gourd to Sixi and said, "The best water I have ever drunk in my life." ”

Sixi held the gourd and drank it, and the master and servant drank a large gourd water in a moment, ate a zongzi each, blew out the lantern, and lay down on the mat with their clothes together-

At this time, it was about the end of the year, Sixi had just slept for a while, his spirit was fine, his forehead and knees hurt, he couldn't sleep for a while, he could hear the bamboo and wood Xiao Xiao outside the house, and the young master next to him didn't seem to be asleep, so he said softly: "Young master, it's windy, don't it rain?" "I'm most afraid of rain when I'm in a hurry.

Zeng Yu said: "Don't worry, tomorrow we will go to Qingtian Village to hire a car to Jinxi County, and you will also be recuperating in the car." ”

Sixi snorted: "Isn't this a waste of money? ”

Zeng Yu said: "What a waste of this, tired of walking for a few days, or difficult to walk in the rain, just hire a car to travel for a day or two, my mother explained this, otherwise I will rush to Yuanzhou thousands of miles away, and I will be as tired as a dog How can I take the exam - don't talk, hurry up and go to sleep, we will leave here early tomorrow morning." ”

Sixi agreed, curled up to the right side, so as not to touch the wound on the right forehead, and soon fell asleep.

Zeng Yu stretched his limbs and lay down, under him was a mat, under the mat was a wooden floor, compared to the previous sitting under the wall like a beggar, now he was really a fairy, thinking: "That aunt should be a character with a lot of origin, her face is so beautiful, but she is a nun, of course she is a person with a story, no, this aunt does not seem to have a scar on the door of her head, which means that she has not received formal bhikshuni ordination, and this house does not look like a nunnery, but if she is a good woman who practices at home, then why shave her hair, Do you really think that a delicate bald head is better than a long hair? ”

Thinking of this, Zeng Yu couldn't help but smile silently, and the female nun's bald head and slender posture came to mind, and he couldn't help but feel a little commotion in his heart, the female nun was kind to him, how could he think about it, isn't this a bit of a beast, but the man's instinctive impulse is not completely suppressed by moral and rational intelligence, seeing such a wonderful person, if he has no idea at all, it is a saint or a dead man, Zeng Yu is neither a saint nor a dead man, let alone a eunuch, he is just an ordinary person, He didn't hate himself because he had such a wisp of lust, and he wouldn't go over the wall to break down the door and become a traitor because he couldn't restrain this wisp of lust, how to think and how to do it are two different things, and this is what distinguishes people from beasts-

"I don't know what the origin of this senior aunt is, that drooping girl is really her daughter?"

This is Zeng Yu's most reluctant thought before falling asleep, and then it is pure sleep-

About four watch days, lightning and thunder, heavy rain came, in the south of the Yangtze River, there are often heavy rains around the Dragon Boat Festival, the river will rise, Zeng Yu was awakened by the thunderstorm, the outdoor electric light instantly illuminated the tea room: the diamond pane, the plum blossom pattern of the mat, the square small tea table, the tea washing on the two layers of the tea table, the teapot shaped like a lying melon, the white tea cup...... The indoor utensils are vivid, like a still life painting, only for a moment, the still life painting returns to darkness -

Zeng Yu lion was lying down, thinking in his heart: "It's really lucky, if you are still curled up by the earthen wall at this time, it will be miserable, Amitabha, the kindness of the teacher, will repay in the future." I only woke up for a while, and soon fell asleep again, and when I woke up again, it was already dawn, and the rainstorm had already passed, so I hurriedly sat up and pushed the little Xi next to me: "Sixi, it's dawn, let's go to Qingtian Village to hire a car on the road." ”

Sixi rubbed his sleepy eyes and sat up, the strip of cloth tied to his forehead fell off, Zeng Yu checked the wound on his forehead, fortunately, there was no inflammation, redness and swelling, the bruise on his right knee also clotted and scabbed, as long as he was no longer injured and infected, it would be fine, and it would be fine to rest for two days-

There is a wide-mouth porcelain jar in front of the door of the tea house, Zeng Yu saw that the water in the porcelain jar was quite clean, so he washed his face indiscriminately, and told Sixi to wash the blood stains on his face too, pay attention not to let the water wet the wound, and went to the baggage to take a small piece of broken silver, let Sixi wait here, he went to Qingtian Village to hire a car to come here to pick up Sixi on the road-

Sixi said uneasily: "Young master, my injury is not in the way, I can go." ”

Zeng Yu rolled his eyes: "Can you go, can you carry the burden, you have to carry it all on my back, I'm not tired, it rained heavily last night, the road must be muddy, it's difficult to walk, I also want to take a car to nourish my legs, the road is still long - don't walk around, be polite when you see my aunt and miss." ”

Zeng Yu tied a pair of big straw sandals to the outside of the cloth shoes, and then went out of the small courtyard of the tea house, just walked to the front of the thatched cottage that he saw last night, and saw the nun in the robe twisting the Buddha beads from the back of the hall to come over, and the difference from last night is that the nun is wearing a cyan monk hat, the brim of the hat is just pressed on the eyebrows, and the eyebrows are more picturesque, and the girl with the drooping hair is really three or four points similar-

Zeng Yu hurriedly said: "Thank you aunt for taking me in, otherwise it rained heavily last night, and the master and servant would be embarrassed, because Xiaojie fell and injured his leg, and he wanted to go to Qingtian Village to hire a car, so Xiaojie still has to stay in your hospital for a while, please forgive me." ”

The nun's slender eyebrows frowned slightly, and she said lightly: "Okay, Zeng Gongzi go and go back quickly, Qingtian Village is not far away, after going on the road, go to the right for a mile and a half, and there are a few in the east of the village——"

"Wow-"

Someone suddenly screamed angrily in the ear room by the grass hall, and then rushed out a fat old woman, the old woman was nearly sixty years old, her face was flushed, her gray hair was scattered, her face was distorted, her teeth and claws were dancing, and she rushed straight towards Zeng Yu—

Zeng Yu saw that this old woman was fierce, took a few steps back, and said in surprise: "What is this for!" ”

The nun hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop the vicious old woman: "Granny Yan, this is the scholar who begged to stay overnight last night, his servant fell and injured his foot, and it rained so hard, how could they be drenched outside the door, and the Buddha will also punish the poor nun." ”

Granny Yan, who was disheveled and fat, was panting, and her two triangular eyes were like nails on Zeng Yu's body, and then she went to rip the nun again, and said in a hoarse voice: "Is this really the case, this scholar is young and strong, didn't he do something else?" ”

The nun's face was originally pale and green, beautiful and cold, after listening to the old woman's vicious words, her pretty face turned red in an instant, her neck was also red, and there were faint green tendons blooming, which showed that she was extremely angry-

"Granny Yan, what are you talking about, don't deceive people too much!"

Under the wide robe, the nun was trembling, turned her head to look at Zeng Yu, and quickly turned her face away, tears had already burst out of her eyes.

Although Zeng Yu was confused, he also understood that the old woman surnamed Yan was suspicious of the nun having an affair with him, which was too wrongful, but now it is not clear what the relationship between this vicious old woman and the nun is, so she only patiently explained: "This mother-in-law, I am going to Yuanzhou to catch the exam, and I missed the accommodation yesterday, this aunt kindly let my master and servant go to the tea house for a night's rest, and I was about to ——"

But this fat and vicious old woman didn't listen to Zeng Yu's explanation at all, and shouted: "Lu Miaoxiang, the old man is ordered to watch you here, and you must not let other men get close to you, don't you know!" ”

Zeng Yuxin on the side said: "It turns out that this beautiful nun is named Lu Miaoxiang, this old woman was ordered to guard her, whose order was it?" What the hell is going on, it's so weird. He said, "I'm leaving, I'm sorry." Turning around to go back to the tea house, I thought that I should leave here with Sixi first, so as not to embarrass this nun.

"If you don't make it clear, don't leave! Don't go! ”

The old woman screamed, and didn't let Zeng Yu go.

Zeng Yu was annoyed, borrowing a night would cause this kind of thing, it was simply inexplicable, and he was about to have a seizure, but he saw the drooping girl trotting out from behind the grass hall, and the big yellow dog jumped and followed along-

The girl must be grooming, her face still has water stains, her black and white eyes widened, and she said crisply: "Granny Yan, what bad things did you say about my mother early in the morning!" ”

The old woman sneered: "Asking your aunt to go, it was her ugly thing." ”

The nun cried, "What have I done—"

When I was making a lot of noise, I suddenly heard someone knocking on the door, and a phlegm-filled voice shouted: "Aunt Yan, Aunt Yan, open the door, it's me Lao Lu." ”

The old woman was suddenly very proud, looked at Zeng Yu and the nun, nodded and said, "Great, great, the Lu Yuan is here, see what you say." ”

The nun who was originally crying panicked and begged in a low voice: "Granny Yan, don't talk nonsense, don't drag this scholar down, he still has to take the exam." ”

The old woman stretched her face and said, "I don't care, since the Lu Yuan is outside, it will be handled by the Lu Yuan." As he spoke, he glanced at Zeng Yu fiercely.

The nun panicked, the tears on her face were not dry, delicate as a pear flower with rain, and said to Zeng Yu: "Please go back to the tea house to avoid for a while, don't come out." Without waiting for Zeng Yu to answer, he begged the old woman again: "Granny Yan, listen to me, I'll put those pair of gold bracelets-" Turning his head to see Zeng Yu standing aside without moving, he hurriedly said: "Zeng Gongzi, go back to the tea house for a while, please." ”

The nun was so anxious that she was about to cry again, her beautiful eyes were full of tears, her expression was panicked, and the drooping girl opened her mouth slightly, not understanding what was going on.

The Lu clerk knocked on the door again: "Aunt Yan, it's my old Lu, open the door quickly, there is something urgent - cough cough, phew." ”

Zeng Yu turned around and walked towards the tea house, his brows furrowed, and he thought: "That day at the mouth of the lead mountain river, I also reminded the three idiot brothers not to fall into the trap of the immortal jump and the beauty bureau, I didn't expect that my Zeng Jiuli would also fall into such a predicament, this is simply Confucius mispronounced the three-character scripture, and the eighty-year-old lady was a child, am I really blind?" ”

Thinking carefully about the beginning and end of entering this courtyard last night and the attitude of the nun and the others, but I feel that it is not right, the fairy jump, the beauty bureau are all active temptation, how can there be such a wait-and-seek, the beautiful nun and the naïve girl do not seem to be trying to deceive him, he has nine carp This bit of eyesight is still there, even the evil woman Granny Yan is also sternly refused him to enter, and he has a simple bag, obviously a poor scholar, which is not long-sighted will set up such a bureau to blackmail him?

If it's not a game, then what's going on, is it that he was so bad luck that he crashed into other people's troubles?
