Chapter 278: Wu Li (2)
Wu Li has sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a long posture, broad shoulders and a narrow waist. He carried a sword at his waist, which was not just an accessory, and he once met bandits on his way to study, and used this sword to cut off the heads of eighteen bandits.
But his own temperament does not seem fierce, but is like a gentle son trained by the family - he really is.
There are also a number of people like Wu Li in the whole of Kyoto, so when the fifth girl fell in love with him, he also intended to marry, so the Li family immediately set up a marriage for the two.
At that time, Ning Shuo and Ning Chen did not move, so she set up the Wu family for her fifth daughter, and after being told a lot, the Li family said to Aunt Niu and the fifth girl: "They are jealous of us, don't care what they say, it is only serious to get the inside." ”
The Wu family felt the same way. The Wu family also liked the fifth girl very much, and took Li's hand and said, "We have been in Kyoto together for decades, and I still don't understand your personality?" You really regard our family Ali as a treasure and are willing to marry your daughter, and this reputation cannot be borne by you. ”
So, I went to a banquet and said, "I begged the Duchess of Ningguo to marry her daughter, she said that the eldest and youngest are orderly, and the two brothers above have not decided, how can she decide?" I'm so anxious that I can't wait to have two more daughters to marry. ”
A group of people laughed, and Mrs. Wu said again: "Our family Ah Li is going to go out to study, I am uneasy that this family matter has not been settled, you met Duchess Ning Guo and also helped me urge, this custom is dead, people are alive, and my sister is not married, but what happened to a family?" ”
She clapped her hands and said: "Although our family Ah Li is a courtesy, our family name is Wu, for the sake of marriage, we have to be a rude person, hum, we are also Wu Li's family." ”
She said this, where did anyone dare to chew the root of her tongue behind her back, and said with a smile: "Okay, then we will help you urge." ”
The two families decided on a family affair in this way, and everyone was very satisfied, and the "Wu Li family" became a word that everyone understood when they talked about it.
Wu Li went out, and after reporting his name, some people would smile and say, "It turned out to be Wu Li's family." ”
He smiled and said, "Yes, it's down." ”
His love for the five girls has never faded. But he's not a letter writer, but he still has to write a lot when he writes. What I have seen and heard, some of my own opinions, but everything I like, are in these letters.
At the beginning, Xixi would also write back to him, and also wrote about what he saw and heard, and interesting things about Kyoto. But gradually, she wrote fewer and fewer letters, and she wrote fewer and fewer words. In the end, she simply stopped writing.
Especially in the last year, she won't reply to the letter she received. If it weren't for his mother's letter saying that she also went to Wu's house as usual, and that each family would have greeted her at the banquet, he would have suspected that she had a lover.
He wanted to come back to see, but before the study tour was over, she also wrote to say that there was no need to come back for her, so he thought about it and continued to go south.
He stayed at Yuzhou Academy for a long time. It is the holy land of the students, he is like a fish in water, and he is happy. Originally, I didn't come back until November, and after I came back, Layue happened to get married.
As a result, His Majesty reopened Enko, and many Jiangnan children rushed to Kyoto, he thought about it, and also came back with a group of classmates.
After coming back, he first went back to Wu's house to meet his parents, and then he didn't need to be informed, and came directly to Ningguo Mansion. I was going to see Xixi directly, but I saw this scene.
The love between men and women is really enviable. But he also has Xixi.
Wu Li smiled and said, "Third brother, fifth sister is at home?" ”
He added: "I just asked the housekeeper, and it was said that my aunt was not at home and went to Yu's house." ”
The Li family and Mrs. Yu are getting better and better, and they get together when they have nothing to do, and Ning Shuo also knows. So he nodded: "I did go to Yu's house." ”
He hesitated for a moment, "I'll take you to the court, and let Xixi come to see you." The yard of the girl's house, where can I go directly. ”
The Wu family didn't want to enter Xixi's courtyard either, he just wanted to stand at the gate of the courtyard and wait for a while to show his sincerity. It's just that the eldest brother didn't let him, so he smiled and followed him to the court. He was a gentleman, and he didn't dare to ask too much about Xixi in front of Ning Shuo, so he could only take out what he had seen and heard and kept talking.
Then he paused and asked in a low voice, "I heard that you are investigating Suijia's case?" ”
Ning Shuo nodded, "Yes, I'm checking." ”
But I don't want to say more.
Wu Li said: "I saw his words and poems in the stone tablet forest in Yuzhou Academy, and I really admired him. If he was wronged, it would be too ......"
What a pity.
"It is a pity that a brilliant person has passed away, whether he was wronged or not."
Ning Shuo bowed his head, "I feel the same way as you." ”
Wu Li: "Not only us, but I have been walking with Jiangnan students all the way, and almost all my classmates have such an impression of him. Some people even cried for him, and I had tears in my eyes when I saw it. ”
Ning Shuo was silent for a moment, then laughed, "Why are you crying?" ”
Wu Li: "Because they counted it carefully, he didn't find anything wrong except for the one million taels of silver that he embezzled. And his contributions, several times in the south of the Yangtze River and in the north to control disasters, are all real. ”
When all the credit was buried by the superior, no one remembered his goodness. But when he was reminded of his contributions, they suddenly remembered, oh, he had done so many things for us.
The human heart is really simple and complex.
Ning Shuo has not entered the WTO deeply, and he is not an unprecedented person, so he cannot be relieved for a while.
So, he just picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "I only wish I could restore the truth." ”
Wu Li didn't sense his displeasure, and said with a smile: "This time, a few people in my company also said that they wanted to invite you to dinner. ”
Ning Shuo smiled and nodded, "Okay." ”
He is also willing to make friends with a few people who are really talented and learned. These people are the pillars of the future country, and if there are companions, they will get twice the result with half the effort.
Ning Shuo was about to say the time, but saw that Wu Li's eyes were already glazed. He felt a sigh in his heart, knowing that it was time for him to retreat.
Sure enough, the five girls had already arrived in the court. She wore homely clothes and combed her hair in a simple bun, but her face was as gorgeous as a peach blossom without rouge, and her eyebrows were as green as distant mountains.
Wu Li hadn't seen the fifth girl for a long time, and he thought that he would be a little rusty, but as soon as they met, he didn't need to say a word, and he was attracted to her again.
He stood up happily and walked over happily, "Xixi, I'm back." ”
The fifth girl looked at him with complicated eyes, "Oh, you're back." ”
People are still so good-looking, which is what she likes, but right...... She didn't seem to be as happy as she used to be.
It's not Wu Li's problem, it's her problem.
