The ninety-fourth round of worship on the spiritual mountain
After dinner, Shen Lingshan paced to the door of Chen Wenqi's guest room, and was about to knock on the door when she heard a conversation coming from the room. I only heard Chen Wenqi say: "Fifth uncle, how did you convince Aunt Fang?"
"What kind of persuasion? Miss Haoqin felt that it was her reason that delayed Miss Haoling's marriage, so she insisted on waiting for Miss Haoling to belong before considering her own affairs, no matter who persuaded her, it was useless. Chen Xiangshan said with a helpless tone.
"Since Aunt Haoqin didn't agree, why did Uncle Fang ask Brother Fang Junjie to change his name to your uncle?" asked Chen Wenqi puzzled.
"Who said she didn't agree?" Chen Xiangshan asked unhappily.
I only heard Chen Wenqi sigh and said, "Fifth uncle, I was confused by you. ”
"When did you ever understand this kind of thing?" Chen Xiangshan said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Since she has to wait for her sister, then your fifth uncle and I will accompany her and wait." Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds for Miss Haoling to find Ruyi Langjun and then I come to propose?"
Chen Wenqi suddenly realized, but said worriedly: "Having said that, Aunt Haoling is afraid that it will not be easy for a while to find a good home." ”
"Nonsense. Miss Haoling is beautiful and dignified, a heroine among women, who married her It was a blessing from her previous life, how could no one come to propose?"
"That's all right. But fifth uncle, you think, ordinary men are married when they reach the age of weak crowns, and those who have not yet married in the recent year of 'erlition' are only some men who are not good looking or disabled and sick. Do you think, can she look up to these Aunt Haoling? You can't let her be a concubine or fill a house?"
"Didn't you curse her? Aren't there any talented and good-looking unmarried middle-aged men?" Chen Xiangshan asked unconvinced.
"Yes is also rare, but it is impossible to find miles. Chen Wenqi said straightforwardly, without taking into account Chen Xiangshan's feelings.
"That's it. Anyway, when Miss Haoqin waits for her sister, I'll wait for her to arrive. Chen Xiangshan said resolutely.
Shen Lingshan was greatly moved when she heard this, and thought of herself, but she was unspeakably sad. She wiped away the tears hanging from her cheeks and knocked on Chen Wenqi's door.
"Fifth uncle, haven't slept yet?" Shen Lingshan greeted Chen Xiangshan with a forced smile.
"Yo, Miss Lingshan, come in. Chen Xiangshan enthusiastically gave up his seat.
"No, Fifth Uncle. Shen Lingshan replied politely, and then said to Chen Wenqi: "Brother, I want to go out for a walk." ”
Chen Xiangshan understood what Shen Lingshan meant, and hurriedly said to Chen Wenqi: "Qi'er, go out for a walk with your sister, the house is indeed a little stuffy." ”
Chen Wenqi stood up: "Fifth uncle, you can rest first, don't wait for me." After speaking, he went out with Shen Lingshan.
The crescent moon hangs high in the western sky like a hook, emitting a faint light surrounded by stars, which can illuminate the mountain paths. The humidity of the night permeates the air, diffusing a sentimental atmosphere.
The two men walked slowly, one after the other, and neither of them spoke.
After the reunion, both of them had an urge to hug each other tightly and forget to talk, but under the constraints of reason, the two tried their best to calm their emotions, quietly stick to this wordless atmosphere, and silently feel each other's breath.
Walking to a ridge, Shen Lingshan faced southwest and muttered, "Mother, my daughter is not filial, so you are worried." After saying a word, he was already in tears. This is the tears of missing my father and mother, and it is also the tears of sadness after falling out of love.
Chen Wenqi stood beside her, looking at her sad appearance, and his heart ached. The two pains of falling out of love and losing loved ones are both heart-wrenching. He wanted to tell her the truth, but after healing the wound of lost love, he tore open the wounds of losing her parents, could she bear it?
At this time, Shen Lingshan had already wiped away her tears, turned to Chen Wenqi and said, "Brother, say it." ”
"Say, what to say?" Chen Wenqi pretended not to understand.
"Don't you let the girl Zhongli tell you, what do you want to hide? Can't you tell your sister?" Shen Lingshan asked sadly.
"Uh...... It's not trying to hide it from you, it's ...... Sister Shan, as soon as you get home tomorrow, my mother will tell you. Chen Wenqi replied hesitantly.
"That's good, I'm not forcing my brother. I'll go home. With that, he turned and left.
Chen Wenqi hurriedly pulled her and said anxiously: "At this time, there is not a single boat on the river, how can you go home?"
"Then are you keeping me awake all night?" said Shen Lingshan as she stomped her foot.
Chen Wenqi was helpless and said, "Okay, you sit down and listen to me tell you slowly." ”
Chen Wenqi helped Shen Lingshan to sit down on a rock, took off his coat and draped it over her, then sat beside her, took her pair of slender hands, and held them tightly in his palms.
Shen Lingshan's heart was hot, and she trembled, wanting to break away from her hand but was reluctant.
"Sister Shan, in fact, we are not brothers and sisters. Chen Wenqi carefully considered the words.
Judging from Chen Wenqi's expression, Shen Lingshan had a premonition that the secret that was about to be told was related to him, but when he heard his brother say this, he was still surprised: "So, you are actually not the little Shen Ji who fell in the river?"
Chen Wenqi slowly shook his head and continued: "No, I am that Shen Ji. ”
Shen Lingshan took out the hand that was held tightly by Chen Wenqi, touched Chen Wenqi's forehead, and asked half-concerned and half-mockingly: "Brother, you don't have a fever, do you? Since you are the real Shen Ji, then what are we not brothers and sisters?"
"Actually, you...... You ......" Chen Wenqi wanted to say goodbye.
"Actually, what am I, say it quickly!" Shen Lingshan said hurriedly.
Chen Wenqi gritted his teeth and blurted out: "Actually, you are not born to your mother." ”
Shen Lingshan "buzzed" in her head, and Chen Wenqi's words were like a thunderbolt in a sunny day, shaking the pines in front of you, the mountains in front of you, and the stars and moon in front of you kept shaking. Even though there were thousands of assumptions and doubts in advance, Shen Lingshan only didn't think that she was not born to her mother Han Mei.
Chen Wenqi held Shen Lingshan, who was fainting, and whispered eagerly: "Sister Shan, are you okay?"
Shen Lingshan tried her best to calm her emotions, and asked with trembling teeth: "If it wasn't my mother's own birth, who was the person who gave birth to me...... Who?"
"Aunt Xue. ”
Shen Lingshan was not surprised, but was a little indifferent, and muttered: "My mother is Aunt Xue, and Aunt Xue is my mother." After speaking, Xiu's eyes closed, and big tears ran down her cheeks.
Chen Wenqi didn't know how to persuade him, Shen Lingshan suddenly stood up, knelt on his knees again, and shouted: "Mother-" touched the ground with her head, and cried bitterly.
After a long time, Chen Wenqi wiped away his tears, approached Shen Lingshan, stroked her back and said, "Sister Shan, don't be too sad. Your father and mother must want you to be happy, so don't let the two old people worry. ”
"Yes, Miss Shen, people can't be resurrected after death, so you should mourn and change. At this time, a group of people came over, and it was Fang Haoling, the second lady of the Fang family, who spoke.
It turned out that everyone saw that Chen Wenqi and Shen Lingshan had not returned for a long time, and they were worried that there would be an accident, so they came out to look for them together.
Shen Lingshan saw that many people had been alarmed, and hurriedly stopped her grief. With tears in her eyes, she struggled to stand up, and was about to take a step but her feet did not obey the call, and she staggered. Chen Wenqi hurriedly reached out to support her.
"Thank you elders for your concern, I ...... It's okay. With Chen Wenqi's support, Shen Lingshan reluctantly bowed to everyone.
Seeing her like this, Fang Haoling stepped forward to hold her arm and said tactfully: "Miss Shen came from the provincial city, but my aunt has not taken half a step out of this mountain. If Miss Shen doesn't dislike it, she will go to her aunt's room tonight to rest, and by the way, introduce some anecdotes about the provincial capital to her aunt, so that her aunt can also open her eyes, how about it?"
Shen Lingshan knew what she wanted, and when it came to this, he nodded and agreed to her.
The night was long, and Chen Wenqi almost had no sleep. He was worried that Shen Lingshan was too sad and cried. As soon as the five drums struck, he got up quietly, didn't care about washing, and hesitated to Fang Haoling's residence, lingering outside the door and waiting. As soon as dawn broke, there was movement in the room, and Chen Wenqi didn't dare to enter the house rashly, so he "coughed" outside the door.
"Who?" Fang Haoling's inquiring voice came from inside the room.
"Aunt Fang, it's me, Chen Wenqi. ”
The door squeaked, and Fang Haoling poked her head out and shouted, "Chen Gongzi, so early, please come in." ”
Chen Wenqi smiled apologetically, walked into the room with Fang Haoling, and saw Shen Lingshan half-lying on the bed, her face extremely haggard. Busy approaching and asked with concern, "Sister Shan, how are you?"
"Brother, I'm fine. You've been out there for a long time, aren't you?" Shen Lingshan asked distressedly.
"And you said it's okay? I didn't get a good night's sleep last night, look at your pale face. Fang Haoling answered.
"It's really fine. Brother, since you are all up, go and tell your father-in-law and master, let's go home early, so that your father and mother don't have to worry about it. Shen Lingshan got out of bed as she spoke, but her feet were vain and her steps were staggering.
Fang Haoling hurriedly held on and said worriedly: "You have traveled a long way, how can you walk like this?"
Chen Wenqi also persuaded: "Yes, such a long time has passed, I don't care about the past two days." I see that you are still recuperating at Aunt Fang's place for two days, and then go home when you get better. ”
"Aunt Fang, brother, I'm really fine, but I had a fight with those wicked people yesterday, and my strength was a little worse. Wait until you get to the boat and meditate. Shen Lingshan insisted.
Chen Wenqi stretched out his finger and put his finger on Shen Lingshan's vein, convinced that what she said was true, so he nodded, which was regarded as an agreement.
Fang Haoling was anxious, pulled Chen Wenqi out of the door, and said in a low voice: "She has a daughter's house, and it is inconvenient for your man to take care of something on the road, what if something goes wrong when she is alone?"
"This ......" Chen Wenqi really didn't think of this layer.
She insisted on leaving, but she couldn't force her to stay. It's not convenient for Lan'er to be pregnant," Fang Haoling thought for a moment, and then said, "That's it, I'll accompany you to Wuchang City." ”
After speaking, without waiting for Chen Wenqi to agree, he turned around and returned to the room, and said to Shen Lingshan: "Since you are leaving, my aunt will not stop you, and my aunt will send you home." ”
Shen Lingshan hurriedly shook her head and said, "I can't help it, how can I let Aunt Fang move after such a long distance?" ”
"You child, my aunt has been in this deep mountain for more than twenty years, and she has never seen the outside world. I finally found such an excuse, I want to go to the provincial capital to see the world, can you bear to refuse?" Fang Haoling said deliberately.
Shen Lingshan knew that this was an excuse, but it was really difficult to refuse, so she said: "Since my aunt has said so, it is better to be respectful than to obey." Brother, you go clean up, Aunt Fang and I will put on makeup. ”
Chen Wenqi hurriedly ran to the residence of the master and uncle, asked the master and his aunt to say goodbye, and returned to the room to wash hastily.
Everyone used it too early to have a polite exchange with Fang Haoyu's father and son, and then they each packed their bags and prepared to go down the mountain.
"Hey, why don't you see Shan'er?" asked Zhu Yiyun.
Chen Wenqi replied: "Aunt Shi, she is washing and will come out in a while." ”
"This kid suddenly knew his life experience, and he felt uncomfortable, and he must not have slept well last night. Zhu Yiyun said distressedly.
"Qi'er, Shan'er has been ashamed since she was a child, and you are the only one who will love her in the future, you have to treat her well for the rest of your life. Zhu Banyun said.
Chen Wenqi's face turned red when he said this, and he replied with his head down: "Yes, master." ”
When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but laugh.
Just as he was talking and laughing, he saw Shen Lingshan walking out of the door lightly. Behind her, followed by a son who was about twenty-seven or eight years old, and was beautiful. I saw that his eyes were like a star, his nose was like a hanging gall, his eyebrows were like willows, and his face was better than Pan An, a beautiful son in the world!
Everyone thought the man was familiar, but they couldn't remember where they had seen it.
Shen Lingshan and Chen Wenqi looked at each other and smiled, and then said to Yang Xianyu: "Father-in-law, let's go." ”
When they arrived in Huangzhou City, everyone went straight to Huanggang County and handed over Yin Feng and other prisoners to Du Ping. Later, when they went to look for Duan Ming on the street, they learned that Duan Ming was drowning in the river, and everyone couldn't help but sigh.
Chen Wenqi and Shen Lingshan hired a tall and spacious double-wheeled carriage for Yang Xianyu and his wife, Liu Mufeng and his wife, Shen Lingshan and Chen Wenqi helped Zhu Yiyun and Yang Xianyu into the carriage, shook a few handfuls of tears from each other, cherished each other, and watched the carriage go to the northwest; Chen Xiangshan and Liu Mufeng and his wife were polite, and also returned to Chenjiazhuang alone.
The master and apprentice had just gotten together and were about to break up, Chen Wenqi looked at the master's snow-white hair, his nose was sore, he knelt down in front of Liu Mufeng and Zhu Banyun, kowtowed a few times, and said with tears: "Master, master, the apprentice is not filial, and he can't serve the second elder, so he is uneasy." ”
Liu Mufeng smiled "hehe", stretched out his hand to help Chen Wenqi, wiped away his tears, and said: "This time, you have done the master and the master a great favor, and the master and the master are very comfortable." ”
Chen Wenqi was stunned for a moment and asked, "Master, what did the apprentice help the master? Why don't I know?"
"You," Liu Mufeng said with a smile: "It is not your credit that we can live a harmonious and happy life with your uncle and aunt? Okay, let's go, you should go home early, so that your father and mother will not be worried. ”
Seeing off Liu Mufeng and his wife, Chen Wenqi hired a canopy boat at the riverside wharf and helped Shen Lingshan into the cabin. The boatman propped up the boat, shouted "Guest officer, sit firm", swung his oars in the back stern, and slowly rowed upstream against the torrent.
Shen Lingshan and Chen Wenqi have been separated from their parents for a long time, and their hearts are like arrows. Seeing that the boat was too slow, Chen Wenqi came to the rear cabin and asked, "Boatman, do you still have oars?"
The boatman replied, "Yes." Guessing that Chen Wenqi was going to help him row, he smiled and said, "Guest officer, you can rest." I have sailed up and down the Yangtze River hundreds of times, and the strength in my hands has long been trained. Although the boat against the current is a little slower, it still has the strength. ”
Chen Wenqi smiled: "We have been away from home for a long time, and we want to get home early." It's not so much about you, it's about helping ourselves. ”
Seeing him say this, the boatman took out the spare oars, put on the oar stake, and inserted them on the left side of the bow, and explained the operation essentials to Chen Wenqi in detail, and asked him to imitate them slowly.
Chen Wenqi smiled secretly, and said in his heart that he had grown up by the river since he was a child, and he had already mastered this rowing skill. But he didn't say anything, only said: "Boatman, you take the right direction." ”
After saying that, I used a little force on my hand, and I saw the canopy boat jump forward, and then it turned in a circle to the right, and the boatman was also pinned by the rudder pole between his legs, and almost fell.
"Hello officer, you have a lot of energy. The boatman was amazed as he let go of the oars in his hand and held the rudder with both hands to correct the direction. I saw Chen Wenqi's single oar flying in the waves, urging the canopy boat to speed upstream.
Not long after, the boat arrived at the Wuchang City Wharf, and the group of three returned home. Han Mei, who was leaning against the door every day, immediately cried with joy when she saw her beloved daughter coming home, and Shen Lingshan plunged into her mother's arms, crying endlessly.
"Mother, when your son comes back for a long time, you turn a blind eye, isn't it a little partial?" Chen Wenqi said jokingly.
Han Mei let go of Shen Lingshan, wiped a handful of tears from her cheeks, and said with a smile: "What is partial? You try to get lost and see if your mother is the same......?"
Shen Lingshan hurriedly took Fang Haoling's hand, came to Han Mei's side, and said, "Mother, this is Aunt Fang, Fang Haoling, the second lady of Fangjiazhai." ”
Han Mei pulled Fang Haoling and said with a smile: "Oh, it turned out to be Engong's sister." You see, our mother and wife are happy to patronize, and they have neglected the guests. Come, sister, please take a seat. As he spoke, he pulled Fang Haoling to sit down beside him, and praised himself: "Sister's makeup, men in the world are afraid that they are ashamed of themselves." ”
Fang Haoling listened to her praise, and immediately turned red, and saw that she was warm and kind. The original apprehension was swept away: "Little sister takes the liberty to disturb, please bear with me." ”
"Mother, Aunt Fang saw that Shanmei was unwell and was worried that she would have no one to take care of her on the road, so she personally sent her home regardless of the long distance. Chen Wenqi explained.
"Oh, sister, you're ...... Teach us how to afford it, sister, thank you here. With that, Han Mei stood up and saluted Fang Haoling.
"I can't do it, I can't do it. Fang Haoling returned the courtesy, and hurriedly helped Han Mei to sit down.
"Shan'er, how are you bad?" Han Mei thanked Fang Haoling and turned around and asked, her love overflowing.
"Mother, I'm nothing. Shen Lingshan snuggled up to Han Mei's arm and replied casually.
"Mother, Sister Shanmei and I had a fight with the 'Lingnan Eight Murderers', maybe we are a little weak in strength, plus ...... Mother, Aunt Xue's child told Sister Shan. Chen Wenqi said timidly.
Han Mei listened and grabbed Shen Lingshan.
"Shan'er, it's not good to be a mother, and your mother shouldn't hide it from you. Han Mei lowered her head and rubbed Shen Lingshan's hair, whimpering and said.
"Mother, Shan'er doesn't blame you. It's just that...... It's just that...... I want to ......" before he finished speaking, he burst into tears.
Han Mei burst into tears and gently patted her back. At this time, all he could do was let her cry in her arms.
After a long time, Shen Lingshan gradually stopped crying, raised her head and said, "Mother, I want to go and worship my father." ”
"Okay, my mother will go with you. ”
"Mother, don't go, I'll go by myself. Shen Lingshan's emotions slowly calmed down.
"Mother, the road is far away, and you have to go up the mountain again, you are still at home, I will accompany Sister Shan. Chen Wenqi also persuaded.
Han Mei no longer insisted: "Okay, let Ruizhu go with you, there will be a response on the way." ”
"Sister, Miss Shen, I will also go to burn paper money for this sister I have never met. Fang Haoling felt that it was the right time, and she should pay tribute to Shen Lingshan's biological mother.
"Aunt Fang, ...... you" Shen Lingshan was about to stop her, but felt that Fang Haoling clenched her arm tightly, so she changed her words and said, "Thank you, Aunt Fang." ”
Shen Lingshan led Fang Haoling back to her boudoir, and couldn't help but cry again after seeing Ruizhu. Shen Lingshan asked Ruizhu to take out the original outfit and pretend to be a young man, and asked Ruizhu to carry incense paper and offerings, and go to Xia Xue and Zhao Xin's cemetery with Chen Wenqi and Fang Haoling.
Lingshan, located on the south bank of the Yangtze River in the west of Wuchang City, was called Huanghu Mountain, Yellow Crane Mountain, Shicheng Mountain in ancient times, also known as Changshou Mountain in the previous dynasty, and was officially named Lingshan in this dynasty, also known as Jinhua Mountain. Because the Southern Song Dynasty poet Lu You's "Entering Shu" wrote that this mountain "winds around as a snake ......", so the folk habit calls it "Snake Mountain". During the period of the Three Kingdoms, Wu State Huangwu built Xiakou City on it in the second year, and the first year of Jin Taikang re-established the county here, so in addition to the temple and palace shrine on the mountain, there are also many pavilions and pavilions, and there is the reputation of "Gao Ao District, the god of Hubei".
Back then, Han Mei's sister and brother had no relatives in Wuchang City, and Xia Xue unfortunately passed away, but there was no place for her to be buried. Fortunately, Han Ming's tutor Gu Dao was enthusiastic, and he found a local Wang family surnamed Yuan, and bought a cemetery in the middle of Lingshan Mountain, so that Xia Xue was successfully buried. After Han Ming was appointed as the prefect of Wuchang, he asked someone to renovate the cemetery, and took out the remains of his father, mother and second brother Zhao Xin from Daqi Mountain, and buried them here.
"Father, mother, unfilial daughters kowtow to you. Shen Lingshan burst into tears, respectfully kowtowed three times in front of her father's grave, and then stroked her father's tombstone and said:
"Father, mother, the five wicked people who chased and killed you back then, one was killed on the spot by my grandparents and grandmothers, and Liang De was a thief who was beheaded by the imperial court half a year ago. A few wicked people remained, and their daughter and brother also took the lives of their dogs. The revenge has been avenged, and you should also smile at Jiuquan. ”
"Father, mother, last year, my daughter met my grandfather at the border of Ningxia, but we didn't know each other, and he didn't know your news. His old man has returned to the capital, his daughter and brother have discussed, in a few days to go to the capital, pick up his old man to Wuchang City for the elderly, we will do our filial piety for you, you can rest assured. ”
Chen Wenqi knelt down and kowtowed three times, and said while pouring wine: "Uncle Shi, Aunt Xue, I am Ji'er." Sister Shan, she is not alone, her father and mother love her very much, and soon her grandfather will come to accompany her, and ...... And...... Ji'er will take care of her for the rest of her life and not let her suffer, please don't worry. ”
Fang Haoling burned the paper money, came to the tomb of Zhao Xin and his wife, bowed solemnly, and said solemnly: "Two brothers and sisters who have never met, although you were killed by the wicked and died young, but now that the wicked have been punished, you can also turn a blind eye." The two little ones in front of you, beautiful and talented, love each other, will be rare in the world in the future, may you bless them to be united forever, white heads to old age. After speaking, he stretched out his hand to help Shen Lingshan and persuaded: "Miss Shen, your head has also been knocked and the paper has been burned, don't be too sad, let's go down the mountain." ”
Shen Lingshan was originally hurt by the scene, and her liver and intestines were broken, but she was first warmed by Chen Wenqi's oath, and then she was said by Fang Haoling, and she was suddenly shy. At this time, she blushed and didn't dare to raise her head, so she only whispered: "Ruizhu, clean up, let's go back." ”
Chen Wenqi helped Ruizhu finish packing up the offerings, got up and said to Shen Lingshan: "Sister Shan, you accompany Aunt Fang to go back first." It's still early, so I'll go to the Chu Palace's Mansion and the Dusi Yamen. "This time, the Qishan Recruitment, the Chu Wangfu and the Huguang Dusi can be said to be very helpful, and Chen Wenqi has long planned to go to thank him.
Shen Lingshan looked up at the sky, it was indeed not too late. Thinking that Fang Haoling would send her all the way, and she should accompany her everywhere when she arrived in the provincial capital, he nodded and said, "Brother, you can go." Aunt Fang, the Yellow Crane Tower is on top of this spiritual mountain, why don't we go for a walk?"
"The Yellow Crane Tower?" is the building that 'the people of the past have taken the Yellow Crane to go, and the Yellow Crane Tower is vacant here'?" Fang Haoling asked with interest.
"Exactly. This Yellow Crane Tower, it turned out to be just a 'military building' for watching and guarding the garrison, since the Jin Dynasty destroyed the Eastern Wu and the unification of the Three Kingdoms, it has become the ornamental building of 'You must be then', 'Banquet must be then', come to Wuchang City and not reach the Yellow Crane Tower, which is equivalent to not coming to the provincial capital. Aunt Fang, since you have already come up the mountain, why don't you stop by and take a look?" Chen Wenqi said helpfully.
"Good. I'm a hillbilly into town, and I feel fresh everywhere. Since you say it's worth seeing, go up and see. Fang Haoling readily agreed.
So, Chen Wenqi went down the mountain to the Chu Palace, Rui Zhu had to be carried home reluctantly because of the offerings, and Shen Lingshan led Fang Haoling to choose the way up the mountain.
The words are divided into two ends. It is said that Shen Lingshan accompanied Fang Haoling up the mountain to visit the Yellow Crane Tower, and while walking, he suddenly heard noisy scolding and crying not far away.
"Miss Shen, listen, what is the voice below?" Fang Haoling stopped and asked.
Shen Lingshan listened for a while, and replied casually: "Probably which husband and wife are quarreling." ”
Where Fang Haoling lives, the mountains are undulating, and the mountain people can only build houses according to the mountain, and most of them are single-family households, so it is rare to see neighbors quarreling. At this time, he couldn't bear to hear it, and said hesitantly: "Or, let's go and persuade and persuade?"
Shen Lingshan said with a smile: "Aunt Fang, it is common for husbands and wives to quarrel, maybe before we arrive, the husband and wife will be reconciled as before." Let's go, let's enjoy the scenery. ”
Fang Haoling thought about it, so she followed Shen Lingshan to the mountain step by step, but her ears deliberately listened to the movement under the mountain. I only heard the quarrel getting louder and louder, and the sound of crying became even more desolate and helpless. Fang Haoling's mood of admiring the beautiful scenery of the yellow crane was gone, she pulled Shen Lingshan's sleeve and said, "Miss Shen, let's go, let's take a look." ”
The two of them quickly ran down Lingshan, only to see a lot of people gathered in front of a house halfway up the mountain, as if they were watching something.
Fang Haoling and Shen Lingshan separated the crowd and squeezed in to see that a strong man was dragging a Confucian student wearing a cloth robe and fifty years old. Beside Confucius, a girl in pink makeup was pulling at the placket of his shirt tightly, and was crying and mourning.
Shen Lingshan looked at the girl and was surprised: Is it her?
