Chapter Forty-Six: Speaking Out of Tune and Laughing Maniacally
One
When he got up early, Tang Liang didn't hand over the handkerchief to Wu Xiaoyong in time. He was thinking, what did this little handkerchief mean to Wu Xiaoyong? Why is he so obsessed with handkerchiefs? Almost every moonlit night, when people were asleep, he would sneak up and take out his handkerchief to look at the moonlight repeatedly, sniffing endlessly. Why is that? Could it be that the handkerchief hides some hidden mystery? "Yes, perhaps, he lost his mother at an early age, maybe the handkerchief is his mother's relic, maybe the handkerchief hides his mother's sorrow and admonition." He thought, pondered for a moment, then quickly denied. "No, no. Every time Wu Xiaoyong looked at the handkerchief and sniffed the handkerchief repeatedly, although he couldn't see his expression, his intuition told him that he was not sad. If it is a relic of his mother, he cares so much, he will be extremely sad, he will burst into tears, and he will grasp the snot with tears. But according to his own observation, he did not do this, and there were no tears on the pillow. The absence of this gesture, the absence of tear stains on the pillow, proves that he is not sad. Since he was not sad, why did he take out his handkerchief at night and look at it repeatedly, sniffing it repeatedly? Thinking about it, he said to himself, "Hey, why don't I see with my own eyes and see if there is any mystery hidden in the handkerchief." So, while no one was away, he secretly took out the handkerchief hidden in the quilt and looked at it carefully. I don't know if I don't look at it, but this look made my chin stretch very long, and then I let out a "ah". This "ahhh He wanted to shout and laugh, but he restrained himself. This small handkerchief not only brightens his eyes, but also understands his own heart. It seems that this handkerchief is really a great article, the meaning is deep and beautiful, and this handkerchief also has a great origin! He was smug with his handkerchief. So, like Xiao Yong, he also looked left and right; Look up, look down; Over and over again, I actually saw God. I thought to myself, no wonder Xiao Yong took out a handkerchief and looked at it repeatedly, sniffing it repeatedly. It turns out that this little handkerchief is not ordinary? Such a beautiful and seductive handkerchief may not have come from a poor family. Looking at the exquisiteness of the handkerchief, the color is gorgeous and pleasing to the eye, it really makes people think about it, as if all the good things are written all over the handkerchief.
A small handkerchief, light and soft, it is a silk handkerchief, pink color, two butterflies frolicking among the flowers and plants, the eyes know that it is a handkerchief with meaning. Did he become a family? Nope! He only said that there was a father in the family and no one else. If he didn't get married, was he married? Was it the handkerchief that the woman gave him? His family is so poor that he can have a young lady from a rich family marry him? Is this impossible? If it weren't for the rich lady, how could a poor girl buy such a high-quality handkerchief and give it to him? What a mystery. He held a handkerchief with a lot of thoughts, and he didn't rush to give it to Xiao Yong, and he silently watched the changes.

I saw that Wu Xiaoyong lost his handkerchief and was listless as if he had lost his soul, and his heart was heavy. The mouth that is always smiling is like hanging an oil bottle, and the brain of thoughts is written all over his face, he sits there, thoughtful, silent, everyone sees him so silent and says: "Xiao Yong is a little wrong today?" Is there something on your mind? Or are you sick or unwell? As soon as the words fell, Xiao Yong knew that he had exposed his thoughts. He forced a smile and said, "I don't have anything on my mind, and I'm not sick, I don't know why I'm not in a good mood today." ”
"Ah, I'm homesick, it's good to be long."
Xiao Yong hurriedly defended: "It's not homesick, but I don't know why?" ”
"It's really unreasonable, I don't know why I just endure the silence!"
Tang Liang laughed secretly when he listened, he was listening to how Xiao Yong made up lies, and how he deceived himself? So he said: "Xiao Yong, everything has a reason, every day you talk and laugh, today you are really abnormal, should you miss the person you like!" ”
As soon as the words came out, the whole room burst into laughter, "Haha, I miss the person I want, I miss the person I want!" One sentence stirred up a thousand waves, and the brothers made a commotion together, hitting Xiao Yong with every word.
When a brother saw that Xiao Yong was being besieged, he shouted, "What are you laughing at? Isn't it right to miss the person you want? Who doesn't want to miss someone in love? That's his future daughter-in-law? Even the little mouse knows that he wants a daughter-in-law and wants a daughter-in-law, let alone people? As soon as these words came out, people laughed again. The speaker saw everyone laughing "haha", and felt inexplicable, and laughed with the sound. Then one of them asked: "You just know people, but you also know the little mouse, and the little mouse wants the daughter-in-law to tell you?" ”
"Of course, didn't you listen to the children?" Little mouse, go to the lampstand, ask for a daughter-in-law, can't get down! ’”
"Haha, haha." The room full of people clapped their hands and laughed wildly when they heard this, and said, "Wrong, wrong!" That's a little mouse, going up to the lampstand, stealing oil to eat, and not coming down; It's not that the daughter-in-law can't get down. When the speaker heard this explanation, he also clapped his hands and laughed, and he laughed so hard that he couldn't say anything: "Is it stealing oil and eating it?" Don't you want your daughter-in-law to come down? I also think it's to the daughter-in-law can't get down there, no wonder you laugh, it turns out that I said out of tune, changed the taste, I was full of little rats and wanted my daughter-in-law to say 'daughter-in-law'. Don't blame it, don't blame it! I don't blame you for laughing. So he restrained his smile and said with a formal look: "Don't laugh, it's normal to think about your daughter-in-law, Wu Xiaoyong is right to think about your daughter-in-law, can you guarantee that you don't want your daughter-in-law?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the words of attack flew towards him like bullets, and everyone said one by one: "It turns out that your brain is full of daughters-in-law, no wonder your words are out of tune and have changed their taste." ”
"That's a good tune, it's the main theme of our laughter." He defended himself and said triumphantly.

Xiao Yong listened to what everyone said, ashamed that he was too young, and hurriedly defended himself: "I don't think about my daughter-in-law like him, don't you talk about me in a circle?" ”
"How do you call this a pocket? Is it normal to say that you miss your daughter-in-law? ”
The two argued. Tang Liang saw the two arguing, and immediately took out the killer weapon and said, "Wu Xiaoyong, what do you think this is?" ”
Xiao Yong looked at it and was shocked: "Strange, how can my token be in his hands?" How did he get it? Isn't he asleep? ”
Thinking about it, he quickly snatched the handkerchief from Tang Liang's hand and said, "I've been thinking hard about it, how can it be in your hand?" ”
How could Tang Liang let the handkerchief be lost? He took it back and laughed "haha" and said: "You can't sleep at night, you can't sleep for a long time with a handkerchief in both hands, I'm afraid that if you go on like this, it will affect your learning, affect your training, and over time it will not be conducive to your health, so I snatched it from you, but the concentration of your thoughts didn't notice me at all." It can be seen how concentrated you are, and the attraction of the handkerchief to you has made you intoxicated and obsessed. Tell me about the secrets and stories hidden in this handkerchief? ”
Everyone looked at this sudden handkerchief, looked at this unusual handkerchief, looked at the handkerchief that was rare for the poor, and listened to what Tang Liang said, and suddenly was in an uproar, "Oh, it turns out that there is a secret?" There is a story! "Everyone, you say a word, I say a word, scramble to see, and there are many discussions.
One person said, "What a big secret, hidden so deep that it's unbelievable." In front of the evidence, you should be truthful, right? ”
"Yes, it's time to tell the truth, right?"
Wu Xiaoyong saw that he was attacked by a group, he looked at the handkerchief, his face was crimson, fortunately his complexion was not white, it was black and red. His dark face hid his shame. He opened his mouth and said, "Why am I careless about Jingzhou?" ”
Tang Liang said: "The loss of Jingzhou is careless, but you are not careless." You are deep thinking, you are addicted, your thoughts are too deep, you are hooked by a handkerchief, you miss your heart and forget the truth, you can't use careless words to lose Jingzhou. You are concentrated, you are focused before you lose your mind and lose your soul. ”
"Yes, concentrate so much that you lose your mind and lose your soul. What are you thinking? Let's talk about it, let's talk about it? Wu Xiaoyong saw that so many people were besieging him, so he prevaricated and said, "I'm thinking about my mother." "Lies, this is a mother's handkerchief? Does mom have such a handkerchief? Truth be told, do you still want a handkerchief? ”。
"Joke, of course I want a handkerchief, that's my handkerchief, why don't I want it?"
"If you want a handkerchief, tell the truth. Otherwise, I will not return your handkerchief. Wu Xiaoyong thought to himself: "Am I telling the truth or lying?" To be honest, not only will the facts be exposed, but they will also be attacked more violently. Not to mention, they can only guess, they can only think wildly, they can only provoke with words, and they will never know the real situation. Thinking of this, he made up his mind never to tell the origin of his handkerchief.
