Chapter Twenty-Eight: Grief for the Past
"Because of one person. ”
"Women?"
Li Chenfeng nodded and shook his head, according to age, at most she was a girl.
He Shoufu smiled self-deprecatingly, mistaking the person in the young man's mouth for a mature woman, and the loss of blood made his face more and more pale, and his lips were also iron-blue, and he talked a lot.
"What kind of person is she?"
Li Chenfeng wanted to leave, but when he saw the man with a persistent look in his eyes, he couldn't bear it, so he simply moved a stool and sat on it. The contrast between the two men in the room was stark, one naked on the floor and the other in ragged clothes on a stool.
"She, she seems to be tough and independent, but in fact, she is like a child at heart, and what she doesn't want to hear is a crybaby. ”
He Shoufu didn't answer after listening to the young man's description, if it weren't for his heaving chest, he would have thought he was dead. After taking a breath of turbidity, he moved his body upward, not for comfort, but just to watch the man in front of him listen to a story, but he didn't want to lie down and see nothing, and said that it was good for the air.
"Let me tell you a story. ”
Li Chenfeng wanted to refuse, but before he could refuse, the man had already spoken.
I don't know if it was a few years ago, but I don't want to remember it for a long time, but I vaguely remember that it was in a remote village. The whole village lives on a few acres of mountain fields. There is a family surnamed He in the village, and the husband took his life on the battlefield, and after the big victory, he fought for his widow for a military merit, which is supposed to have a lot of silver.
When the officers who came to settle the funeral saw that there was only a widow with a strong stomach left in the family, how could they understand the twists and turns of the imperial court, and directly swallowed the silver to be settled, and only marked out the fields to be divided. It didn't take long for the child to be born, and the name was sorrowful, and when I thought of my dead husband, I thought of the name, Shoufu, He Shoufu, which means that the land that men fight to get is the best blessing left to their sons, and they must be kept well.
Because there is a lot of more land, life is relatively comfortable, and when He Shoufu reaches the age, he can also take out the tuition fees to go to school.
He Shoufu, who was still young, inherited his father's temperament, and was more lively and active, as long as he believed that he was reasonable, ten cows could not pull it, so he took the phrase "At the beginning of man, the nature is good" taught by Mr. Teaching, and Mr. spoke more than once. He Shoufujue couldn't be kind in life, even if Mr. Teaching punished him with a ruler, he couldn't resist it, and he was angry and kicked him out of the school.
When he was seven years old, it rained heavily for three days and three nights, and the school was suspended.
He Shoufu was bored watching the flood, picking up the stones and making waves, although such a big flood made waves, but he liked the moment when the pebbles successfully hit the splash, maybe it was in line with his stubborn character.
He Shoufu, who had no stones in his hands, pulled everywhere, and happened to be in the wooden pile washed together by the flood, as if someone was lying in the water. He Shoufu stepped forward boldly, poked it with a branch, and saw that there was no response, he wanted to run away and not let the dead ghost get bad luck, but after thinking about it, he didn't give up, and he had the courage to turn the person over. Only then did I see that it was a girl of the same age as herself, although her face was a little pale, she was unusually good-looking, especially the eyebrows, which she liked very much. After feeling that the girl still had breath, he didn't care about going home and being beaten, so he picked up the girl and ran home, for fear that he would lose his breath when he went back. They are all about the same height, He Shoufu is tired of running with him, so he runs on his back, and when he is tired, he will clamp it, and when he is almost home, the girl will vomit almost water. After arriving at the door of the house, He Shoufu directly cried. After looking for a circle and finding no one, the mother hurriedly ran out and looked at the girl who was blinking her eyes and her son who was crying.
Since then, the girl has stayed at He Shoufu's house, the two eat together and go to school together, and the relationship is very close, He Shoufu's mother has always been hungry for a daughter, and now there is no shortage. The people in the village muttered to their children every time, "Look at the richest man in the family, pick up a daughter for his mother, and pick up a daughter-in-law for himself", and finally the girl also took the surname He, a double word Miao, He Miaomiao, He the richest man.
Time flies quickly, He Shoufu has become a young man, He Miaomiao has grown into a big girl, the two have secretly tasted the forbidden fruit early, and as for getting married, it is also a certainty, sooner or later.
"Miao Miao, I'm going to take the exam tomorrow, you can wait for my good news at home and my mother. ”
The girl nodded lightly and leaned sideways on the shoulder of He Shoufu.
He Shoufu touched the girl's eyebrows, as if he saw her by the river for the first time, he still liked it, and he liked this girl from the first sight.
He Miaomiao asked countless times why she was brought home, so she was not afraid of dying on the road and being chewed on her tongue, He Shoufu laughed and said nothing.
Back then, He Miaomiao woke up halfway, watching He Shoufu's back and clamp, all the way without stopping, until Taotao cried after returning home, and from that moment on, he decided not to marry.
He Shoufu's talent soon shone brightly, but good fortune and misfortune are coming, the more dazzling it is, the easier it is to make people jealous, and when he drinks poetry once, he gets into the set set set by others in advance. The man took the four princes as a guide, and asked He Shoufu to comment one by one, and He Shoufu, who was already not strong enough to drink, was even more endless, from politics to raising soldiers, and the spearhead was pointed at the words of usurpation, everyone was shocked, and the result can be imagined, although He Shoufu was not beheaded, he was not hired for the rest of his life.
He Shoufu is not a person who pursues power and loves power, he returned to his hometown, ready to stay with his beloved until he is old, he thought that the disaster was over, but on the night of his marriage, officers and soldiers broke into the house and controlled everyone present.
Only then did He Shoufu see who the person who came, it was the person who set up the banquet that night, and He Shoufu couldn't understand why the high-ranking big man embarrassed a powerless little person like himself.
"He Shoufu, this is the woman who is your childhood sweetheart, she really looks good when I see it today. After saying that, he put the palm that crossed his face and sniffed it between the tip of his nose, deliberately putting on a look of intoxication.
"Wang Sheng, you and I have no grievances, why are you so forced to force each other, how can you let me go?"
He Shoufu shouted anxiously.
The man known as Wang Sheng spoke: "I am the last person who can see others better than me, and I have better things than me. After speaking, he tore open He Miaomiao's clothes, and looked at He Shoufu, who was a little crazy, and curled his mouth.
"It's okay to let you go, and I'll promise you to crawl through my crotch. ”
He Shoufu looked at the woman who was shaking her head desperately with tears in her eyes, felt distressed for a while, and without hesitation, she knelt on the ground and slowly crawled through Wang Sheng's crotch.
"Let her go, I did. ”
"Why did you let her go? I only said I let you go, hahaha. ”
He Shoufu rushed up when he heard the situation, and put his head on Wang Sheng's stomach, if it wasn't for the officers and soldiers to stop him quickly, his sharp teeth would have been bitten on his neck.
Wang Sheng covered his stomach and got up, glared at He Shoufu viciously, and directly grabbed He Miaomiao's hair and said, "Today I want you to watch your woman being played to death." ”
Wang Sheng tore He Miaomiao's clothes in front of He Shoufu, and the woman's desperate resistance was to no avail, He Shoufu's mother stepped forward to stop her, and was broken by the official messenger, and lay on the ground without breath.
He Shoufu wanted to struggle away, but he was directly grabbed by the neck and pressed to the ground, watching his woman being defiled.
"If you want to survive, you must come up and ride a lap, otherwise you ......"
"Wang Sheng, you are not human, Wang Sheng......"
He Shoufu yelled.
I don't know who took the lead, the people present stepped forward one after another, and the woman cried and shouted no, but the sheep fell into the tiger's mouth, and it didn't work at all.
He Shoufu looked at the scene in front of him, screaming desperately and struggling until he couldn't shout. He Shoufu still remembered the last time the woman looked at him, without the slightest reproach, and even said something with his mouth, He Shoufu knew that it was "live".
After everyone left, He Shoufu held the woman and the woman in his arms, knelt on the ground and burst into tears, trying to call the two of them softly, but his throat could not make a sound, he could only whine, shake, and cry bitterly.
A few days later, at night, a middle-aged man with a golden crown and jade belt entered He's house, and no one has seen He Shoufu since. A few years later, the same scene appeared, it was still the same festive day, the same red robe, but the characters changed, the one kneeling there became Wang Sheng, and the one standing there was He Shoufu.
