Chapter 8 The wrong sedan chair to marry the right man
After saying goodbye to Nie Xiaoqian, Wang Qiongying was no longer interested in staying in Siyizhai, and personally hugged the manuscript of "Marrying the Right Man in the Wrong Sedan Chair" packed with a beautiful carved box, and was about to go back.
Baoqin, who was walking briskly behind Wang Qiongying, asked a little puzzled: "Miss, don't buy books?" ”
Wang Qiongying nodded Baoqin's smooth forehead and said, "Isn't it the best book in my hand, which one in the shop can match it?" ”
Baoqin touched the forehead that was nodded by the young lady, and asked blankly, "Is it really that good?" ”
Wang Qiongying nodded and said, "I've never seen such a good one." ”
"What about Sister Nie, it seems that I have never seen you so good."
This is called like-mindedness, life in the world, it is rare to have a person who knows his heart and mind. Cover up, do you think your sister Nie is bad? ”
"Sister Nie is not bad, but she feels a little cold when she stands next to her."
"Cold, didn't you say it was warm the other day?"
"Is there one?"
"You little girl, you are not old, why are you so forgetful."
As the two spoke, they passed a tea stall on the side of the road.
"Last night, I really saw the lights in the attic of the Li family's manor."
"You drunkard, the yellow soup can't kill you, just beat the change, and talk nonsense everywhere at night, who doesn't know that the Li family manor has been abandoned for a long time, saying that it is almost the same as seeing bats, mice and wild foxes, the lights are on, and I am not afraid of being heard by ghosts."
"I'll tell you the truth, a few days ago, I saw a little lady go to the side of Huaishu Hutong."
"You might as well say that you saw a female ghost."
"I suspect it's a female ghost, too."
……
Wang Qiongying heard the words of the husband and stall owner at the tea stall, and couldn't help but glance at the Li family manor in Huaishu Hutong.
"Miss, I heard that it is a ghost mansion, and there are many wandering ghosts and ghosts, but no one lives there anymore, and I don't dare to go there." Hug Qin's temperament seems to be lazy, but in fact, his eyebrows are raised, and seeing that his young lady seems to be puzzled, he went forward and said a few words.
"At a young age, I learned to be suspicious and suspicious, I don't say anything, I don't do anything bad in my life, and I don't be surprised when I knock on the door in the middle of the night." Wang Qiongying played the words of the sage who read it in a small way, and she was familiar with the four books and five classics by heart, and never believed in gods and ghosts, so she couldn't help but click on the ghost words and ghost words again.
"Miss, my head is going to be broken by you."
"I'm not Starling's mighty King Kong finger."
"The Eighth Young Master won't just point people's heads."
"Of course he won't just point people's heads, he has such a big hand, if he clicks casually, wouldn't everyone have to cover their heads and live?"
"I don't know when the Eighth Young Master will come back?"
"Starling is studying art in Shaolin, how can he say that he will go home when he goes home."
Wow!
Suddenly, the sound of raindrops hitting the leaves sounded, and the two girls hurried to the door of the mansion in front of them.
This autumn rain rained so fast and rapid that people were caught off guard.
"We are home, but we forgot to ask Sister Xiaoqian just now, where is her residence? If I was far away, I was afraid that it would not have been rained, why didn't you remind me at that time? Wang Qiongying, who was holding the manuscript very well, remembered Nie Xiaoqian, who left alone.
"I see you guys have a good chat, where do you want to get it, you didn't even ask where Sister Nie's home is." Baoqin replied very aggrieved and pitiful.
"I knew that I should have left Sister Xiaoqian, Sister Xiaoqian is the pillar of her family, what should I do if I get sick in the rain?" Wang Qiongying said regretfully.
"Miss keeps her as a guest, won't her grandmother be worried and anxious when she is home alone?"
At this moment, the old housekeeper of the Wang family's house hurried with two small servants and rain gear.
"Miss, your umbrella." The old housekeeper handed the fan to Wang Qiongying.
Wang Qiongying took the umbrella a little sullenly, but she didn't open it, only lowered her head, thinking about whether to go back in the rain.
"Miss, who else do you think here?" Holding the piano and observing the words, he reminded him.
"Who is impatient knows who else." Wang Qiongying didn't even raise her head.
"Who annoyed the nine girls of our family?" This time, it was a suave male voice.
"It's God, there is no sign of rain." Wang Qiongying replied without thinking about it, because this god may have rained Sister Xiaoqian she just recognized.
"Haha, then I'll help you break this day, okay?" The suave male voice made a three-point joke.
"What are you capable of...... Hey, no, starling, when are you coming back? Wang Qiongying said half a sentence, and then she realized the difference in the speaker, and looked up, a young man in a green cloth robe stood tall, as if the breeze and the moon, warm as jade.
"I heard that the nine girls of our Wang family returned home, so I hurried over overnight to prepare to pick up the car." The young man laughed.
"Hmph, you will say witty things nonsense, there is no right line, this is also what our ordinary people can say?" Wang Qiongying has always been close to this brother who is only five years older than herself, but she thinks that her little brother's temperament is lenient when she hears good, and too casual when she is mean, and she doesn't seem to take everything to heart.
Just like the family's business, all over the country's 26 provinces, my father, eldest brother, fourth brother and sixth brother take care of it, twelve months a year, but there are eleven and a half months of running around, very busy, but the starling brother is fine, never pay attention, dance knives and guns when he was young, and when he was ten years old, he also ran to Shaolin Temple, became a lay disciple, and his father was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
"What the ninth girl taught is that Wang Lin kept it in mind." The young man replied.
Wang Qiongying didn't have a problem with him, and snorted, but after all, she was happy for the starling to come back: "How long will the starling come back this time?" ”
She knew that although Starling was a lay disciple, Shaolin Temple had its own temple rules, not that she could come if she wanted to, and she could leave if she wanted to. In the past, every time a starling went home, the stay was as long as half a month, or as short as three or two days. She was a little worried that this time the starling would also come back in a hurry and leave in a hurry.
Wang Lin raised his eyes to look at the misty and poor and obscure sky, and his voice was completely different: "This time I won't leave, stay with our nine girls." ”
Wang Qiongying saw that the starling looked like this again, and she was not angry at the moment: "A good man is ambitious in all directions, what are you doing as a big man with me as a woman." ”
Wang Lin heard that a trace of melancholy on his face flashed away, and he immediately straightened his expression: "Okay, our ninth girl, don't talk about this, let's talk about your good book, I heard the old master say that you just bought it for more than a hundred taels, can you share it with the starling?" Starlings spend all day watching Buddha chanting scriptures in Shaolin Temple, and always feel that they are already hateful and tasteless. ”
"Hmph, Lao Dongbai has eyes and doesn't know gold and jade, but the rumors behind him are inciting." As soon as Wang Qiongying heard this, she knew that Old Master Wang was sued by her brother and said that she had spent a lot of money to buy books, so she was angry and sarcastic.
"Ninth girl, you have a lot of adults, for the sake of the old master's lack of merit and hard work, spare him this time." Wang Lin interceded for Old Master Wang, after all, Old Master Wang was old and frail, and if he lost this job, it would be difficult for the family to live.
Wang Qiongying actually couldn't get used to the stubbornness and old-fashioned nature of Old Master Wang, but she didn't really want to drive him away, so she snorted twice and said: "I didn't say how I want him to be, the heart of the villain is jealous of the belly of a gentleman, but I must print this book." ”
"Which book written by a talented person is so valued by you?" Wang Lin, who has always been unencumbered, is also a little curious.
"Sister Xiaoqian's book, it's not a blind path of reading at night with red sleeves and fragrance, there are parents who are short, house battles, and bloody battles, swords and swords, it's okay for you to take a look." Wang Qiongying thought about the manuscript in her arms, and her face was slightly gloomy.
"Sister Xiaoqian?" Wang Lin's curiosity was even greater.
"Sister Xiaoqian's surname is Nie, she is only a few days older than me, you can't call her sister." Wang Qiongying explained.
"Hmm." Knowing the name, it will be easy to find people, Wang Lin thought to himself.
"The book is going to be printed, but I forgot to ask Sister Xiaoqian if she has an alias or room name." Wang Qiongying thought about the printing of "The Wrong Sedan to Marry the Right Lang", and thought of an omission, "But Sister Xiaoqian is bright and beautiful, so she uses her real name, which is nothing, and she can promote her fame." Those who teach the scholars in this county also know that we have a strange woman here who does not let her eyebrows go. ”
In fact, even Nie Xiaoqian herself can't tell about the pen name, whether she really didn't think about it and forgot to give herself a pen name, or decided not to change her name, whether she didn't change her surname, or she didn't have any other plans.
But no matter which aspect it is, Wang Qiongying copied the manuscript of "Marrying the Right Lang in the Wrong Sedan Chair" with the heart of not letting Sister Xiaoqian's talent be buried, and then sent the copy she copied to the Wang Family Bookstore for engraving, leaving Nie Xiaoqian's original manuscript for her own collection.
Because Wang Qiongying supervised tightly, and sent a lot of manpower, the progress of the book engraving was very fast, and it didn't take many days for Siyizhai to have the book of "Marrying the Right Man in the Wrong Sedan Car" for sale and rent.
And because of Wang Qiongying's grand recommendation among close friends in the boudoir, "Marrying the Right Man in the Wrong Sedan Chair" soon spread throughout the entire Guobei County, and even the girls who buried their heads in the window painting (spring) palace all day knew that although it was written by a young woman named Nie Xiaoqian, there was not much fat in the word book, or novel.
Then the Huaichun girls in Guobei County all held a book in their hands and read it day and night.
(I have three times a day, did I vote for recommendation?) )
