Chapter 31: Not good
When the feast bell heard this, he was not too sad. Before asking the third cousin, she had actually asked the second young lady and the fifth girl.
The second young lady said: "This is not a rare name, I remember that many people call it a birthday guest." β
Then he laughed out loud, "The name Shouke, at the beginning, it was quite elegant, and then up to the princes and nobles, down to the street vendors, there are people called Shouke, and the name is worthless, I don't know when it started, Shouke turned out to be a cheap name - just like the people in the village Zhuangzi called Dogdan." β
The feast bell suddenly realized: it turned out to be an elegant and cheap name. She once heard her father say that a cheap name is easy to feed, so many people come out in their lives, and they deliberately take a cheap name, as if they can deceive Lord Yama and the little ghost who came to ask for their lives.
She understood why her husband laughed at his friend for calling him a shouke in the book. She asked, "Are there any men in their twenties and thirties who are called Shouke?" β
The second young lady was very busy - the old lady of the Su family of Zhenguo Gong, that is, the princess's mother's family, was about to hold a birthday banquet, and she had to go to check the birthday ceremony, so she hurriedly thought about it, shook her head and said: "I remember it, but I can't remember it for a while, and I'll tell you when I think about it." β
The fifth girl comforted: "A person dies like a lamp goes out, you don't have to be too persistent in pursuing his life experience." β
Feast bell head. At that time, I figured it out, and I felt that it was okay if I couldn't find it out, anyway, she was reading Mr., Qingming had his sacrifice, and the temple soul lamp was not extinguished, and it didn't matter if other people remembered it or not.
But when she saw her cousin, she couldn't help but want to ask.
But my cousin said he didn't know. While she was disappointed, she asked curiously, "The second sister-in-law said that there are many people with this name, and there is no one named Shouke in your classmate's ceremony?" β
Ning Shuo shook his head, "No." β
Yes, no.
After the crown prince called the name of the shouke, His Majesty did not let people shy away from it - his original intention was to let the prince live a little better and live for a long time. But where do the people of Kyoto dare to take it? No one screamed.
Father once said that when the prince was born, His Majesty cried with joy, holding the prince and cherishing it, and initially took the beautiful small characters of men like Zhou Zhi (Si Jiuzhou Zhi Bo Daxi), Zhan Zhan (Zhan Zhan of the gods), but later he was afraid that the prince would not be able to suppress it, so he took the name of a woman like Zhao Zhao and Ming Xue, but he still felt uneasy, and finally decided to take Shouke as a nickname.
"I hope he will live a long life."
When my father said this, it was when the crown prince was suppressed by His Majesty to the bottom, so he sighed and said: "Who would have thought that it was Your Majesty who wanted the prince to die now." β
Ning Shuo shook his head, not wanting to think about the disgusting royal father and son anymore, but persuaded the feast bell again, "I still say the same thing, there must be a reason why your husband is unwilling to talk about the past." What if you find something bad and are known to others, so that he will be talked about? β
The feast bell was stunned by this sentence, "-Something bad?" β
Ning Shuo found that she really hadn't thought about this possibility. He said, "Have you never doubted your husband...... Could it be that something bad happened to go to Lingnan? β
Feast Bell shook her head dumbfoundedly. She explained seriously: "Mr. is here to recuperate - he is sick, and his time is short, so he sees through the red dust and lives in seclusion in Lingnan, so far he will not talk about the past, this is the realm of immortals." β
This was the first time Ning Shuo had heard the feast bell look at him like this and the reason why he had come to Lingnan. He even felt a little funny, "Because you are sick, you can see through the red dust and cut off your worldly kinship?" β
The feast bell nodded. Not only did she feel the same way, but so did the people in the town.
She said: "Ge San's sister-in-law, who lives across the street from our house, also said that Mr. was trapped by love - that's what is said in the book. But I asked my husband, and he said he didn't have a wife. Ge San's sister-in-law said that it was precisely because she didn't marry a wife that she saw through the red dust. β
This statement is recognized by most of the three aunts and six women in the town. They all think that a person like Mr. who looks like him must have an affair.
Ning Shuo was surprised, he never knew this.
Feast Bell: "Humph! I don't believe in this reason, so my husband will not be trapped by love. The word love is all shared by ordinary people. β
Her husband is a fairy figure.
Then she was a little angry, "The widow Liu in the town still wants to recommend herself to the pillow in front of Mr., and wants to get a gentleman's flesh and blood." β
Ning Shuo: "...... Is it? β
Feast Bell was indignant, "Yes! She talked about it everywhere, saying that Mr. Zhong Lingyuxiu, thinking that the child would definitely win the champion in the future, even if the gentleman died, she would have a good life. β
I can't fault this reason. Ning Shuo couldn't laugh or cry, and was a little curious. It's a strange feeling, and it's funny to hear her say something she doesn't know.
He said, "What about later?" β
Feast Bell was so angry that her face turned red: "Later, Ge San's sister-in-law said that Mr. is like an old log, but he can't stand the toss, in case he dies in bed......"
Dead in bed, he was going to eat prison food. Widow Liu returned disappointed, sad that she couldn't get a champion seed, so she avoided the people of the Sheng family and said that Mr. would not lift it outside.
At this point, the feast bell suddenly realized that he had said something that he shouldn't have said.
She was a girl's family after all, and she went from blushing to being shy and overwhelmed.
Fortunately, after Ning Shuo was shocked that he still had such a reputation outside, he also took into account her shame, quietly stepped back, and changed the topic seriously, he cleared his throat and said: "Cousin, what I said, you think about it, it doesn't matter if you didn't think about it before, but Kyoto is a place of right and wrong, one is not good, you and your husband are going to have an accident, so it's time to think about it now." β
The feast bell was frightened and his face turned from red to white. She said tremblingly: "I don't know a few people, and I just arrived in Kyoto, and I only told people in our family...... It doesn't matter, right? β
Ning Shuo saw that her face was like earth, so he regretted it a little, feeling that he had scared her by saying something serious. He also knew that he couldn't hide it for the rest of his life, but if he could hide it for a while, it would be best to wait until he found out the truth and avenged his family.
So he was ruthless and said, "It doesn't matter, but you must not think about asking about the portrait again, and don't inquire again, so as not to burn yourself." β
Feast Bell nodded stunned, went back in a daze, and then wanted to refute the words of the third cousin from the bottom of his heart, but he felt from the bottom of his heart that what the third cousin said actually had some truth.
She fell into confusion, not because he was entangled in whether Mr. was a good person or a bad person, but because he was confused about why he was so stupid, Mr. didn't let him paint his portrait, and didn't let him find his past, in fact, it was very likely that Mr.'s past could not be revealed, and once it was revealed, it would affect Mr.
- Why hasn't she thought about such a simple truth? She also prides herself on being smart, but now that she thinks about it, she is really in the game, and she can't see it clearly at all.
She took a deep breath, put the book of the Twelve Flowers on the desk into the box, and then went to the second young lady and the fifth girl to ask them not to spread it, as if she hadn't asked.
The fifth girl thought that she had figured it out, but the second young lady was so busy that she was dizzy and didn't think much about it, and nodded and said, "I definitely won't go out and talk about it." β
As for Li's place, Feast Ling didn't ask at all, because she was busy dealing with the old ladyβalthough she still didn't say a word about how to deal with it, she knew that her aunt had gone out several times for this matter.
Moreover, the aunt did this by herself, and even the second young lady did not let her interfere, which shows that she is unwilling to let the children get involved in this matter.
Feast Bell felt that her aunt was unwilling to implicate them.
So she didn't dare to disturb her aunt, so she didn't ask. Now I don't need to explain it.
The second young lady was busy in her mind, and pulled her and said, "Look at my brain!" Banquet bell, just in time for you to come! You'll also have to try on a set of clothes to wear when you go to the Zhenguo Mansion to eat noodles. β
She explained: "The Su family of Zhenguo Mansion is also a century-old family, and the current crown princess is from his family. This year, it was originally said that there would be no banquet, but suddenly it was held again...... Kyoto is in a hurry to buy birthday gifts! β
The feast bell knew that it was a big feast, and hesitated: "Am I going too?" β
She doesn't really like places with too many people, and it's still this kind of big occasion.
The second young lady and the fifth girl looked at each other and smiled, and teased: "Who are you going to go if you don't go?" Mother is going to give you a husband back at this feast. β
