At night, the county town in the festival is full of lights, fire trees and silver flowers, the bright moon is chasing people, and the smiles and smiles are very lively.

Away from the alley of a quiet official residence, he approached a green-robed barnyard official who was covered in alcohol, shaking his robe as he walked, sniffing it from time to time, frowning and continuing to pat his official uniform.

Raising his eyes and seeing that he had passed, he hurriedly took a few steps back, pushed open the courtyard door and walked straight to the inner room, but before he entered the house, he said loudly: "Madam, your Langjun has returned home!" ”

A glamorous woman dressed in regular clothes walked out of her wide clothes, and said angrily: "If you have nothing to do, come out like this, go home and catch the adulterer?" When will you change your tone? ”

The woman's rebuke was exchanged for incoherent words.

"My wife is as beautiful as a flower, but she can't be optimistic, so that outsiders can take advantage of it."

The woman sniffed lightly, and said with a displeased expression, "Who are you fooling around with again?" ”

Cui Ying smiled sneeringly, "How dare you, we are on business this time, the prefect suddenly came here to inspect today, and my uncle pulled me to accompany me, and I couldn't hide, so I reluctantly drank a few drinks with Shangguan." ”

Yan Mengshuang looked at her face, the bedside couple, her heart was as thin as silk, and she sighed: "Something's wrong?" ”

Cui Ying bent her face, threw aside the faded official clothes, sat down with her daughter-in-law, and poured herself a cup of warm tea and drank it all.

Yan Mengshuang saw her dissatisfaction, and asked, "Angry?" ”

Cui Ying grinned and said, "Didn't you see the dead fat man in the prefect'......"

Cui Ying hurriedly glanced outside, and then said with confidence: "That dead fat man has been aiming at me, look at his uncle's look, dog thing, if he wasn't the prefect, he would have come at the same level as me, Lao Tzu would have already used a trick to tease his yin legs, so that he would have cut off his children and grandchildren." ”

After Yan Mengshuang listened, she pointed her finger at the door of her head, "These words, just nag at home, don't dare to go outside and talk casually." ”

Cui Ying put her arms around her daughter-in-law's waist, rested her head on her shoulder, and said with a smile: "I'm not a fool." ”

"It's weird not to be stupid. The female officials of the national dynasty were already guilty, and the higher they went, the more they were not welcomed. I warned you countless times, but you didn't admit death and became the county magistrate. ”

"We are childhood sweethearts, I saved my uncle's life again, this is what we deserve. But then again, I originally wanted to be a county official, but I was forced to be pressed by my uncle in the main book, my temperament is so jumpy, I am a master who can't sit still, and I settle accounts every day, which is like my life. ”

Yan Mengshuang got up and said: "Just your outspoken and fast-talking stinky temper, and you like to do things, let you become a county official, and the entire yamen will become a Jianghu sect in less than half a year, and there is no law at all." ”

Cui Ying said with a hippie smile: "I can't forget my roots." If it weren't for me and my brothers who went to the women's country to steal the water of the Zimu River, this would have been Xiao Xiu'er, otherwise no matter how fierce I fought with you in bed, it would have been in vain. ”

Yan Mengshuang said angrily: "Once you have entered the public gate, you must have a good experience of your mind, and you can no longer do whatever you want." ”

"Got it, got it, my lady!"

"Are you hungry?"

"If you pour a stomach full of wine, you won't eat a few bites of food."

"Wait, I'll give you a hot meal."

Cui Ying didn't get up either, hugged her daughter-in-law's waist, and rubbed her head violently, "Such a beautiful daughter-in-law, what kind of food to eat, eat you." ”

Yan Mengshuang scolded with a smile, "Dead." ”

There was a sound of broken footsteps, and a little girl in white with pigtails broke into the house, looking like she was four or five years old, with smart eyes and eccentric eyes.

The couple were stunned for a moment, and Cui Ying said happily in her heart: "Little Xiu'er, I haven't seen you for a day, my father misses me very much, come here, let my father hug me." ”

Xiao Xiu'er covered her nose and said disgustedly: "Don't, it's too smelly of alcohol." ”

Cui Ying didn't care so much, she walked over and forcibly held up her daughter, her mouth was kissed for a while, Xiao Xiu'er kept pushing her head, but unfortunately she didn't have enough strength, so she was about to cry.

Yan Mengshuang didn't help anyone, watching them fight for a while, she shook her head helplessly, and went down to help her husband heat some food and bring it over.

In the middle of the night, the couple slept in bed, Yan Mengshuang fell asleep peacefully, and the drunk Cui Ying was half-asleep and half-awake.

I didn't say something to my daughter-in-law, I toasted today, but I forgot the surname of the prefect, if it weren't for the eldest brother of the prefect who played a smooth round on the side, she might have to eat at the prefect's side.

Chong Guan was angry at the beginning, and he didn't regret it, but he was diluted by the future firewood, rice, oil, salt and human feelings.

Years and months, day by day, the mind is pinned on the rivers and lakes, the body is nested in the yamen, the walking corpse is general, while remembering this, forget the other, the style of action is more and more cautious, and it is no longer the heroic atmosphere of the rivers and lakes.

A thunderclap flashed outside the house, and the rumbling sound came from far and near, Cui Ying, who was not sleeping well, got up and walked out of the house, glanced at the moonlight sky, and scolded in a low voice: "Dry thunder on a sunny day, it's really fucking weird." ”

The drought and thunder situation has been going on for a while, Cui Ying mentioned it in the office one day, everyone was puzzled, and after several times, Cui Ying knew that the thunder seemed to be heard only by himself.

When I was young, I roamed the rivers and lakes, and I heard a lot of things about demons and monsters, and even experienced it once or twice, and I had seen the immortal posture, but Cui Ying thought that she was not too deeply implicated, and she should not provoke any big murderers, big evil people, there is no reason to target the general, and a yamen master is not careful.

But the thunder can only be heard by himself, which is strange.

Every time there is no one around, Cui Ying always thinks of those years in the rivers and lakes. The heroes are full, the wine cups are staggered, the brothers are with each other, the sword mountain and the sea of fire can be gone, the righteousness is thin and cloudy, and the thousands of miles are only for love.

Knowing that there is no turning back, he will die generously, no one owes anyone, if he has the heart, he will come to my grave in the coming year to give me three cups, and he will be blind to death.

Cui Ying's face appeared with a wry smile, she hadn't toasted her brother for a long time, and she probably jumped down and scolded her mother.

When I got up and went back to the house, I was entangled in something, I seemed to have a brother who had a lifelong friendship, but I couldn't remember who it was, and I couldn't remember what it looked like, the two of them spent the most time together in the rivers and lakes, but Cui Ying now only vaguely remembers his surname "Chen", and nothing else.

This kind of almost inexplicable thing almost became Cui Ying's heart disease, and she once complained to her daughter-in-law, but in exchange for a sentence of "don't think too much", but Cui Ying stayed in the mansion, if there was no accident, she would sit all day, and she usually had no official business, and her thoughts could not be suppressed, and she was most prone to crankiness.

This made Cui Ying Mo Ming sad, it shouldn't be like this, it's only been a few years since he entered the public gate, but he forgot so much, what will he do in the future? I can't be pre-aging, right? I remember that in the past few years in the rivers and lakes, I never hurt my braincase in a fight, so why did I get old and decay before I got old.

Cui Ying secretly grieved, walked into the house, and said in her heart: "That's it, that's it, it's good or bad, just remember your daughter-in-law and daughter." ”

The moment the door closed, there was another thunderstorm.

It's no longer just the sound of it, the lightning streaks across the night sky, and the full moon competes for glory.

In the future, Cui Ying will go on a business trip step by step, and go on a business trip at night, except for the necessary entertainment, and rush back early to accompany her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law.

The brother who didn't know if it really existed made her more and more confused, and the heart that longed for the rivers and lakes became more and more uncontrollable.

One day on a business trip, Cui Ying walked home as usual, walked a few steps into the alley, stopped abruptly, stood for a long time, and then turned around and went elsewhere.

Selling a pot of good wine with private money, Cui Ying avoided many people and found a quiet and unmanned Sifang Pavilion to drink and drink by herself.

"Others only want to go to the rivers and lakes because they have no worries, but I have both wives and children, and I also want to, and even want to go to the rivers and lakes to be happy and revenge, and my daughter-in-law scolds me for being stupid, which seems to be right."

"My parents are not far away. After my parents passed away, I only went to wander the rivers and lakes, and now I am working in the yamen on an errand, is this 'seeking benevolence and getting benevolence'? ”

"My daughter-in-law is as beautiful as a flower, my daughter-in-law is smart and intelligent, my eldest brother is enough to take care of me, even if my colleagues gossip, it is not as good as back then, it stands to reason that I should be content here."

Cui Ying patted her chest and said sullenly: "But I'm panicking." ”

Cui Ying, who was dressed in an official uniform, looked lonely, every time she took a sip of wine, she was more worried, and her depression was nowhere to spill in her heart, so she pointed to the night sky outside the pavilion and scolded.

"Either promote Lao Tzu, or let Lao Tzu make a fortune, go around the rivers and lakes, let Lao Tzu deal with the abacus account book every day, and want to be angry with me, isn't it? I'm angry with this little master, so that others can kick the widow's door, occupy my mother-in-law, and beat my daughter's idea, shit, so calculating. ”

"Done scolding?"

Cui Ying turned her head to look at her drunken eyes, and grinned: "Madame is here, I'm sorry to be ugly for my husband." ”

Yan Mengshuang put on her headdress, came to her side, and said with a soft face: "My heart is so unhappy, I will scold, and I will scold when my husband flies in the future, and it will not be too late to make up for it." ”

Cui Ying nodded again and again, "Yes, when I am promoted to a high-ranking official, I will kill those gossiping two-skinned faces, so that they know that girls are not easy to mess with." ”

Yan Mengshuang smiled: "Okay, don't go crazy outside, Xiao Xiu'er is anxious, let's go home quickly." ”

"Oh, our little baby finally wants to be a daddy, it's rare, let's go, I can't wait to see it, it's rare."

"Isn't it a shame to open your mouth and joke about using it on your child?"

The two people, who call themselves "old husband and wife", walk through the streets and alleys holding each other's palms, greet acquaintances on the road, and meet a frequent shop, the couple stay for a while, do not go in, just say a few words casually.

The price increase is the black heart, and the original price is the conscience, this is too absolute, but Cui Ying, who has the reputation of "strict wife management" in the yamen, does not dare to refute, all follow the daughter-in-law, as long as the daughter-in-law speaks, she nods, and at the end she has to praise the daughter-in-law for being sympathetic to the people's feelings and having the demeanor of a queen, which provokes Yan Mengshuang's charming eyes.

A flash of lightning exploded in the night sky, Cui Ying first raised her head, and then looked around, except for her, even Yan Mengshuang beside her looked unaware.

Cui Ying only felt empty in her heart, looked up at the night sky, and muttered, "Brother, is it you?" ”
