Chapter 172: The Life of the Red Buddha (14)
What happened before the Red Whisk martyrdom was like this: before Chang'an City was fully built, Li Weigong fell ill and could no longer open his eyes. When he was at home, he always wrapped himself in a blanket and put his feet on the stove, which is always the case all year round.www.biquge.info Sometimes the charcoal in the foot stove has gone out, but sometimes it scorches Wei Gong's heels, making his feet look like roast ducks. But you don't have to worry about Wei Gong, the skin on his feet has already died, and after soaking it in hot water, you can scrape a layer more than an inch thick. From this point of view, Wei Gong is old, although he is not yet sixty years old.
From other aspects, Wei Gong is also old. His stomach was very bad, like a cellar of frozen sweet potatoes, exuding a strange smell of sweet and bitter, which was poisonous and could smoke flies and mosquitoes. Of course, this has something to do with his poor digestion of food. His hands trembled, and he couldn't hold anything. And his hair was all white, and his face and voice were childish. This is called the Crane Hair Boy's forehead. He was always sitting in a chaise longue in his study, surrounded by all sorts of invented utensils that were covered in dust. Wei Gong used to like to paint all the furniture and homemade equipment in black, so this house is a bit dark. Wei Gong used to put all the tools and stationery in a mess, so this house is still a mess. Like all scientists, Wei forbade anyone to clean his study, and he did the work himself, but he had not done it for a long time. In the past, as soon as it was dark, Wei Gong would light the room full of butter candles. The wax was still there, but it had been gnawed up by the rats, and the rest was so old that it tasted like soap, so the rats wouldn't eat it again. On his desk there were all kinds of brushes, quill pens, reed pens, vellum, parchment, silk, rattan paper, but he had not held a pen for a long time. The house stenched of rotting ink. He had all kinds of handsaws, files, gauges, copper, wood on his workbench, but he hadn't made anything in a long time. The house smells of pungent dust. At the same time, Chang'an City was also put aside by him, like an unfinished utensil, a pile of garbage. The city could no longer interest him. He just sat in his chair and looked at the window paper illuminated by the sun. This kind of feeding shape is called old age.
At the same time that Wei Gong is old, other people in Chang'an City are also old. Although most of his colleagues had a childish appearance, some of them were hunched over, chatting when they met, and they were always talking about cars. This situation made everyone feel ashamed, so they hired a clerk to write down the topic he had said, and every time he repeated the topic, he drew a line in front of it, and five times he was full, which was a "positive" word. After meeting and chatting for a while, the two gentlemen took the conversation record and saw that there were too many orthography on it, so they shook hands and said goodbye. In addition, it takes half an hour for everyone to withdraw urine. Everyone's favorite thing to say is: we're all old. Wei Gong sometimes feels that he is very old, and sometimes he feels that he has not yet grown up. Every time he saw a pile of sand, he had to restrain himself so that he would not run to the pile to play. He likes to pull the corners of her red skirt and talk to her in a crisp boyish voice. He also wanted to dig in the mud and wear open crotch pants so that he could defecate in the open. This situation often makes Hongfu's scalp explode, because she has not grown old and small with him, so when Li Weigong said to her with an extremely lingering and extremely cute look and tone, "Honghong, have sex", she did not **** erection, but wanted to give him a big mouth. This mouth can sometimes get a great effect, Wei Gong immediately grew taller, his voice became thicker, and he said sharply: "What are you hitting me for?" In fact, he has not become so old (only the heels are really old), nor has he become so small. The reality is that he seems to be frightened, and he must look old and small. As an adult, he did not bear the responsibilities of an adult, so he had to flee to both the old and the young.
This kind of pretending to be old also exists among women, so before going to work every day, Hongfu has to carefully apply makeup, coil her hair on the top of her head, and draw crow's feet at the corners of her eyes and mouth. She also has to wear a bra made of scallops, the effect of that kind of thing is to flatten the **, if the shell is back down, it can also give people a sense of sagging, and hang two bags of water under the bra, put on a fake belly, fake buttocks (the role of this thing is also to make people feel falling), and then put on clothes, sprinkle perfume to work, this perfume is extracted from fermented soybeans, rice water, oil smoke, exudes the smell of the kitchen. If you sprinkle it moderately, it's not too much of a magnet for flies.
As for the situation at work, it is like this: everyone in Chang'an City has to go to work, and if they don't work in the yamen, they go to various federations. Hongfu can go to work in the Guild's Union, because she does not work in any yamen. Every morning she rode there on a grey she-donkey, which looked like a hare, mainly with its head and ears, and when she heard the two sacks of water swaying on the road, lest it spill it, so she held them with both hands, and looked like a strange one with a sad face. It is said that a man with a small intestinal hernia looks like this on the road, and always has to use his hands to help the **** who has been poured into the intestines. When I arrived at the class, I saw that everyone was so sad and sad, and they all learned to talk with a mouthless mouth like a toothless old lady. The words that don't detract are all said by ear: "I have to go home immediately, the water bag is leaking." "I told you, don't put water on it, put it on sand. "Wouldn't it be worse to leak a body of dirt? Come to my house in the evening to play cards. "Okay. But I don't believe your hydration bag is really leaking!" "The unit where Hongfu goes to work is the second-class noble women's federation, referred to as "Gui Women's Federation (B)", and the colleagues are not too old, and they are all a bit laid-back.
In addition to the Gui Women's Federation (B), there are also the Gui Women's Federation (A) and the Gui Women's Federation (C), the full names of which are the First Class Noble Women's Federation and the Third Class Noble Women's Federation. There are many differences just in this space. The Gui Women's Federation (A) is full of old ladies, what is falling, deflated, and the smell of the body is all naturally formed, so there is no need to pretend. The members of the Guild Women's Federation (C) were all unkempt and straight-eyed, and some were escorted to work by two healthy women in tights. The nature of their marriage is determined by the nature of their marriage: if she is married to a Ming media, she is a first-class noblewoman, and she is naturally a member of the Women's Federation (A). If she is a de facto marriage, ** marriage, gray marriage, first rape and then marriage, etc., she is a third-class noblewoman and becomes a member of the Guiwomen's Federation (C). This kind of woman herself is a bit confused, even if she can't reach the level of madness, after being rated as a third-class, she will naturally reach it. Of course, Hongfu's situation is not rated as first-class, because she is not married, and there is a certain gap between her and the third-class, because she is not robbed. In the end, it was compromised and rated second-class. Actually, she's not quite right here. If you don't count her at this level, it's a military marriage.
The origin of military marriage is as follows: In the war to pacify the four seas in the army of the Tang Dynasty, many soldiers were very old, but they were not yet married. In this case, there was a practice whereby every time a city was taken, the unmarried warriors surrounded the noble girls' school, called the headmaster out, struck her on the head with the hilt of their knives, and said, "Call all your students, and jump from among us to be husbands—or else you will be washed in blood!" Then the girls came out, dressed in white blouses and black skirts, and looked timidly at their toes, and after a long time of hesitation, came to a man who looked less bearded, In front of the not very old GI, he said, "It's you," and then he started crying. The soldiers, who had never been picked, were so angry that they broke into the school and swept away the teachers, the principal, the female school workers, and the old woman who burned the fire, but these people all belonged to the category of the Guild Women's Federation (C). The next morning, the girls all knelt in front of the tent to polish the boots of the soldiers, and lowered their voices to each other: How is your one? Hate to die. What about yours? It's full of hair, and I hate it. I'm not afraid of looping legs. I'm not afraid of hair. So I switched to it. Those soldiers didn't recognize the new wife, so they didn't care. Because of this kind of exchange and mess, the evaluation of military marriage cannot be too high. However, military marriages have played a great role in stabilizing the morale of the army and even winning the war, and these women have all marched and fought with their husbands, and some have shed blood and been wounded, so this situation cannot be ignored, so there is the rank of Gui Women's Federation (B).
The members of the Guild's Women's Union (B) had marched with their husbands, but they were bound hand and foot with leather strips and carried on horseback. The soldiers sang military songs as they marched, and these people chatted with the people in front and behind them on horseback: I shouldn't have drunk water in the morning, and now I hold my urine. You count them, they will work. I'm an old turtle leader, and my hands are so heavy when I tie people up. You use his dog's skin mattress as a bracer -- and when he falls asleep, you cut it secretly. When fighting, they also charged on horseback, and some people were indeed wounded, and they were all wounded in the buttocks. Up to this point, the women's participation in military life was like a roll of bedding - in fact, they were rolled up in the winter cover. Later, the warriors found small shields to cover their buttocks, and they also used their hands together to carry bows and arrows for the warriors, which was considered to be emotional. This kind of woman was still relatively young and beautiful after the construction of Chang'an City, and in order to show the demeanor of a noblewoman, she had to draw crow's feet on her face and hang water bags. In any case, I am still happy to be assigned to this federation, and I can hear some gossip here, and I can also say some outrageous remarks -- in the Guiguild Women's Federation (A), there is only avenue news and positive remarks, while in Guiguiren's Federation (C), there is no news or remarks, only whispering and roaring, and if you are not careful, someone will bite off your ear. Now it's time to talk about how Red Whisk and the other members of the Gui Women's Federation (B) are out of tune. Everyone here has a long story: it begins with what the family used to do - at least a county magistrate, sometimes using words rarely used in modern times, such as privy councillors. Related to this is how many old mothers are in the family, how many maids, how many kitchens, cooks will cook steamed chicken, stewed bear paws, and so on. Of course, this is the situation of the previous dynasty, in the common language of Chinese mainland, called "the old society of all evils". Red Whisk still has knowledge such as the name of the dish, but she doesn't know much about the official name of the previous dynasty, so she has to be vague when it is her turn to speak. Then there is the story of the wedding night, how the "old turtle leader" (this is the standard name for her husband in the Guild Women's Federation (B)) carried them to the tent, threw them on the dogskin mattress, stretched out a foot in a size 45 leather boot, and made her pull the spur down. At this time, because of fear and humiliation, she had no strength at all. He pulled off his riding boots, revealing a big foot covered in sweat, and the stench rushed to the roof of the tent with a thud, and even the flies hovering fell to the ground. This shows the flashy, exaggerated tradition of the narration of the students in the aristocratic girls' schools of the previous dynasty - they all used the same kind of Chinese textbooks, and they were used to copying each other in composition classes, so the stories were similar - and then the "old turtle leader" showed his ugly things that were not in the sky and not in the earth, and tore her cotton panties. Red Whisk didn't have this kind of education, nor did she have this kind of tradition, and she didn't experience anything like that, so she said a few words: "I ran away on my own." I like him. When the second-class ladies heard this, they coaxed her in unison.
The situation that the red whisk and the Gui Women's Federation (B) are out of tune, the leaders have long noticed. One day when she was off work, she was intercepted by several men dressed in eunuch costumes. The men showed Ouchi's waist card and said to her, "Please come with us." Red Whisk thought: The feet are not afraid of crooked shoes, so he went with them. These people have bare chins and milky voices, and they seem to be real eunuchs. Hongfu followed these people around and around, and when they arrived at a place, they met a person and asked her to be a spy for them and report all kinds of remarks from their colleagues. He also said, we understand your situation, you are a veteran soldier who participated in the Xingtang War, and you are different from those remnants of the previous dynasty. We are preparing to transfer you to the Guild Women's Federation (A), and before that, you are going to do this for us. Hong Fu simply refused to be a spy, and said that she did not want to go to the Gui Women's Federation (A) at all. The man said, "Well, it's up to you." Don't tell anyone about today. We'll see you again in the future, Duchess Wei. Hongfu felt that this person had bad intentions, and when he came back, he told Wei Gong when he went to bed at night. According to her, everything in Chang'an City should be well understood. Wei Gong thought of the assassination not long ago, and even shuddered, and said: This is not my design. Don't provoke them. And the next morning, Red Whisk found a piece of paper on the dresser, on which a lip was drawn, and there was a cross on the lip. This incident made Hongfu angry, and when he saw the people in eunuch clothes on the road, he shouted at them: "Do you want to eavesdrop on my husband's whispers with me?" The honest little eunuchs who served in the inner court and took the time to buy straw paper listened to them, and they were all dumbfounded.
It's not the first time that Red Whisk has dealt with these eunuchs who like to ask around, and this is not the last. The first time was when the grade of a noble lady was assessed, and she was invited to a ruined warehouse and asked her to tell her about her elopement with Li Jing - especially all the details related to sex. Red Whisk said, "What does this have to do with you?" The result was immediately a misunderstanding, and in the blink of an eye he was stripped naked, hung upside down on the beam, and there he staggered like a bat and said, "It seems that I have to tell you—just put me down." Red Whisk is a genius at creating misunderstandings, just as I do. She said, "What does this have to do with you, which means that this is a matter between me and Duke Wei, and what does it have to do with the rest of you?" But the understanding of others is: This is a matter between a woman and a man, and what does it have to do with you eunuchs? Of course, the father-in-law didn't like to hear such things, so they hung her upside down. At the same time as putting her down, he also taught her a big lesson, in other words, he tossed her hard to prove that the eunuch also understood sex. But what this lesson is about, Hongfu didn't understand. She said to the eunuchs: These substitutes you use are far worse than Li Jing's guy. So the eunuchs looked at each other, and couldn't figure out whether it was better to hang her up again or put her on the ground. But that time, they recorded her confession and let her go, and ironed her crumpled clothes. The second time was to ask her to be a spy, and this time it was quite polite, neither stripping nor hanging upside down, because spies should be consciously voluntary. These two times are routine, you must know that the head does not know the private affairs of others, and there is no spies, so he will not be the head of the head. But the third time was different. When those eunuchs saw her, they smiled and said, "Duchess Wei, I said that we were going to meet, and I really did." While greeting them, Hongfu took off his clothes, climbed up the beam of the house with his hands, hung himself upside down, and said, "Ask." I'm ready.
