"I'll just say that Brother Chongwen is broad-minded. ”

"Yes, now that he is famous, he may be a high-ranking official in the spring of the next year. ”

"At that time, I hope that Brother Chongwen will help me. ”

In the midst of chattering words, the five of them hurriedly walked in the alley, Wang Chongwen suddenly stopped, looked around, and turned his face sideways.

"Do you hear a woman crying?"

The four scholars who followed on the left and right stopped, you look at me, I look at you.

"Did you hear that?" "Brother Chongwen can't be wrong. ”

"Well, maybe there are women crying. ”

The scholar carrying the lantern took a few steps forward, raised his arm and probed forward, the paper lantern lights shone in all directions, and the ghosts on both sides of the street could not be seen.

"Nobody...... Did you hear me wrong?"

Whining~

Woo~~~

The scholar who originally spoke was stunned for a moment, Wang Chongwen opposite him, and the other three were also stunned, and there were really women crying.

Following the intermittent crying, Wang Chongwen frowned and pointed to an alley not far away.

"It seems to be coming from over there. ”

He lifted the hem of his robe and hurriedly trotted over, and the four scholars had to follow closely and shout.

"Brother Chongwen, run slower, beware of falling. ”

The entrance of the alley was dim and difficult to see, Wang Chongwen saw the four scholars coming behind, took the lantern, and shone it inside.

"Girl, are you in there?"

The dim light faltered, and as they pushed through the darkness, the five of them vaguely saw the silhouette of a figure leaning against the wall, sitting on their knees on the ground.

Whining~~

"Girl?" Wang Chongwen asked again.

"Brother Chongwen. ”

The four scholars in the back swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looked at the shadows in the deep alley, remembered a scene that happened in the woods one night, and couldn't help but shiver, and woke up drunk.

Bite the bullet and carefully call Wang Sheng in front.

"Brother Chongwen, I think it's better to go. ”

"Yes, yes, a woman suddenly came out in the middle of the night, I don't think it's a good thing. ”

"Yes, yes, what the two brothers said in front of me is, Brother Chongwen, where will there be a woman crying in the middle of the night, even if there is, it won't be our turn to meet, don't say those grotesque ambitions, say what, wait, I brought the book, take it out and flip through it immediately......"

Ignoring the muttering persuasion of the four people, Wang Chongwen waved his hand and pulled the cuffs from one person's hand, raised the lantern, and looked stern.

"Those who read worship sages, where do so many ghostly and weird things come from, if they are really weak women who are in urgent need of help, wouldn't they miss it?

After that, he walked into the dark alley with a lantern, and the four scholars didn't know what to do for a while, standing at the entrance of the alley trembling and shouting in a low voice:

"Brother Chongwen, then you just have to go, we will show you in the back!"

In the alley, the lights flickered, driving away the darkness, the cry of the sobbing woman became clearer and clearer, Wang Chongwen leaned out of the lantern, looked carefully, a woman huddled there with a package, plain white clothes and pants, and a linen cover on the back of her head.

The woman felt the light of the light, timidly raised her face from behind the package, and when she saw Wang Chongwen, her body couldn't stop shaking, and she quickly buried herself in the burden, and kept shaking her head.

"Don't take me back, don't take me back......"

"Girl, I'm not a villain, don't panic. ”

The lantern was placed next to the woman, and Wang Chongwen bowed his hand and squatted on the side.

"I'm a scholar who reads things as he is, don't be afraid, can you talk about any difficulties?"

Getting closer, Wang Chongwen was stunned for a moment, and saw that the woman's plain clothes and hemp cover were a little different.

Wearing linen and filial piety, this is someone who just died in the family?

At this time, the woman also slowly raised her face, and reflected in the dim light, with red lips and willow daisies, her skin was as white as jade, and she was as moving as she was wearing this filial piety dress.

"Good ......"

Realizing that he had said the wrong thing, Wang Chongwen hurriedly changed his words.

"That's not what I mean under ......"

Burst.

Seeing his panicked appearance, the woman opposite broke her nose and chuckled, pursed her mouth again, and lowered her face slightly in grief.

"The concubine is not a local, she was sold to a neighboring county to be a concubine, the big house is jealous, often beaten and scolded, a few days ago the outside died, the concubine was worried about her life, so she ran out overnight......"

Alas......

Wang Chongwen sighed and asked again: "Then do you still have relatives at home?"

Tears overflowed in the corners of her eyes, the woman raised her face, and choked up her words:

"It turned out that there was, but now I'm afraid there is no more, the concubine body thought that she had nowhere to go, so she cried here, disturbing the mood of several Langjun, I'm really sorry, the concubine will leave. ”

The woman held the burden, leaned against the wall and slowly got up, turned around, and lowered her head towards the other side of the alley.

"Aunt ......"

As soon as Wang Chongwen shouted, four scholars behind him hurriedly rushed in and pulled him.

"Brother Chongwen, that girl is leaving, there must be another place to go, let's leave it alone. ”

"Yes, if Mrs. Sister-in-law knew, then it would be fine. ”

Wang Chongwen looked at the staggering woman in front of him and hesitated.

"Well, that's all there is to it. ”

Over there, the slender figure on the wall paused for a moment.

“......”

Suddenly, with an "oops", he sat down unsteadily and sat on the ground, rubbing his ankle and neck, and tears fell.

"Girl!"

Wang Chongwen, who had originally dismissed his mind, walked over quickly, and when he saw her pear blossom with rain, his heartstrings seemed to be gently plucked.

“...... Why don't you settle in my house for the time being, it's too dangerous for a woman to be alone. ”

"That's all there is to it. ”

The woman raised her hand and took advantage of the situation, and was helped up, and suddenly there was another "Hey." The whole person leaned on Wang Chongwen, his red lips opened slightly, and he blew lightly into the man's ear.

"This Langjun takes me home, won't Mrs. Sister-in-law mind?"

As he spoke, his eyes crossed the corners of his eyes, looked at the four scholars, and glared fiercely.

The four of them shuddered in unison.

In the alley, Wang Chongwen helped the woman over.

"I don't mind, besides, I still have a study available, and my wife rarely comes over. ”

When he walked out of the alley, he didn't forget to urge the four scholars with a solemn expression.

"Keep up, come home with me, and do your studies tomorrow. ”

The four of them glanced at each other.

"Go?" "Go, just in case it's not a youkai." ”

"We're not entangled in ...... anymore"

The scholar who spoke first picked up the lantern on the ground and quickly followed, and the remaining three had to follow hard.

............

Wang Chongwen's house is not large, and the study is placed in the side compartment, and for the sake of fame, few maids and servants come to disturb him.

Now that four more scholars have been placed, Mrs. Wang is more down-to-earth, and she doesn't have to worry about Jinwu Zangjiao.

Squeak ......

The back door of the side compartment sounded softly, and Wang Chongwen took a look inside with his baggage, and then hooked his hand back and let the woman behind him in.

"The one in front is the study under it, and there is a bed in it, don't dislike it, girl. ”

The four scholars followed tremblingly and entered the study, where Wang Chongwen blew the fire fold and lit the candle.

"Girl, wait a minute, there's a bit of chaos here, I'll clean it up. ”

After speaking, he went to make the bed, and the four scholars looked at the woman standing in the shadow of the lamp, neither to go nor to stay.

In the end, I couldn't help but speak.

"That Brother Chongwen...... The hour was not early, so I waited for the four of us to go back to the house and go to bed first. ”

Over there, Wang Chongwen was about to be humiliated, turned around, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, you stay first, talk to the girl for a while, and I'll go to the front yard to get some snacks. ”

Then he arched his hand at the woman:

"Rest assured, girl, these four are good people, and they will go down and come back. ”

"Brother Wang......"

"Brother Chongwen!"

Phew-

When the door touched, the four scholars put down their hands and stood side by side, looking nervously at the opposite side.

The desk light flickered, and the woman stood in the shadows, her expression flickering.

Outside, the night wind blew through the window lattice, making a soft noise, and occasionally a dog barked.

"Goo~"

The four of them swallowed in unison.
