Chapter 44 Red Beans Make Cakes (II)
The yard is small, and so are the three rooms. When Hei Bao first checked here, he felt very sorry for his wife. His wife Lu Chunhua comforted him in turn: "It's better to have a smaller house, so that two people can squeeze together all the time and be intimate all the time." ”
Heibao doesn't go to the county office most of the time to do things, and as soon as he goes, he has to deal with the official business that he has accumulated for a few days before he can go home.
Lu Chunhua knew that Heibao went to the county government this time, and he might not come back until the next morning. So she blew out the lamp early and lay down in bed to rest. But not long after she lay down, she got up and got out of bed again. In the northwest corner of this small bedroom, there is a porcelain basin covered with a white tarpaulin. Lu Chunhua came to the porcelain pot, uncovered the tarpaulin, and saw half a pot of red beans soaked in the porcelain pot.
Lu Chunhua pinched a red bean and stuffed it into her mouth, chewed it and said in her heart: "If you want to soak it for a few more hours, you can make red bean cake tomorrow morning." ”
The hometown of Lu Chunhua and Heibao, one in the south and the other in the north. The eating habits of the two are very different, but red bean cake is a snack that both of them like to eat.
Lu Chunhua lay back on the bed, she repeatedly thought about the embroidery style she had just learned from the skillful sister-in-law in the village today, and gradually fell asleep.
It is estimated that more than half an hour later, suddenly there was a "clang" sound from outside the hospital. Lu Chunhua suddenly opened her eyes, frowned and shouted, "Xianggong?"
No one answered, only the depressed, breathless black, rushing towards her. Lu Chunhua wanted to get up to get a pair of scissors to defend herself, but before she could move, the door was pushed open with a "rattle". Outside, a dark figure was quietly clubbing.
Seeing this figure, Lu Chunhua was even more sure that this person was an uninvited guest. Lu Chunhua was so frightened that she didn't dare to move, she suddenly remembered several murders that had happened in Lin'an City in recent days, and she was about to cry, she opened her mouth again: "Xianggong!"
The figure was stunned, and suddenly, he rushed towards Lu Chunhua like a mad beast. Lu Chunhua's heart almost jumped to her throat, but she didn't shout or cry, but bit her lip and forcibly calmed herself down.
When the man walked to the bedside, Lu Chunhua suddenly stretched out her hand, but she grabbed the thing in the crotch of the visitor's pants impartially.
Lu Chunhua said lightly: "I have a large amount of weapons, you have a small amount of weapons, you are not my father-in-law." That man seemed to be more scared than Lu Chunhua, and when Lu Chunhua grabbed his shortcomings, his body was shaking like chaff.
Hearing that no one spoke, Lu Chunhua said again: "You go quickly, my father-in-law is the county commander in this county, and there are many officers and soldiers near our house to protect it." If they see you, you won't be able to save nine lives. ”
"Sure... ......The man stammered for a moment, and finally uttered a sentence that was completely true: "What if I can't keep it! Even if I die today, I will have to take revenge on the dog officer...... Ah!" Before he could finish his words, he screamed with a heart-rending scream.
He curled up on his crotch and lay on the ground, groaning in pain. Outside the dogs sang and harmonized, and several families had already turned on their lights.
Lu Chunhua breathed a sigh of relief and said coldly: "If my father-in-law is a dog official, then no one in this Great Song Dynasty can be called a person!
After listening to the man's "hey" for a while, he gritted his back molars and said viciously: "I have loved my wife, and my wife is peaceful." But God didn't like it, and disaster came, and my wife was defiled by Pan Qing, the young master of a big family in the city! My wife went to report to the official, hoping that the government would give justice to my husband and wife. But that dog county order not only let people beat my mother with a stick, but also defended that Pan Qing! Originally, that Pan Qing had already admitted the crime, but the dog county order had to be tried again at a later date! You say, what is he not a dog official!"
This person is not Wu Molang, who else can it be.
Lu Chunhua said secretly: "Xianggong, he has always been upright, how could he do such a foolish thing that does not distinguish between right and wrong." She frowned and said, "I don't believe it, you told me everything you have sent in court today!"
Wu Molang snorted coldly: "Why should I tell you!"
Lu Chunhua said with a smile: "If what you said is true, if I am not acting impartially, then I will seek justice for you." ”
Wu Molang said: "Can you still be the family of that dog official!" Lu Chunhua spat suddenly, which happened to fall on Wu Molang's forehead, and she said: "If you scold me again, I will find someone to beat you to death! Tell you, my father is a second-class member of the court, and I say that if I can make decisions for you, I can make decisions for you!"
Wu Molang was shocked when he heard the "ah", he was stunned for a moment, and then muttered: "Okay, I'll tell you." Wu Molang slowly told the big and small things that happened in the court today, all in detail. By the end, he couldn't stop crying.
After hearing this, Lu Chunhua couldn't help but sigh and said: "You are really confused, if you really make a big mistake today, what should you do with the sick lady in bed? Don't worry, I'll give you an explanation. ”
Before Wu Molang could speak, he heard a woman outside the house shouting: "Sister-in-law of the Hei family, is your family a thief?"
Wu Molang was frightened, and Lu Chunhua replied: "Yes, sister-in-law Yang, she is indeed a thief." But I've scared you away, so go home and see, and don't let the thief slip into your house. ”
The woman outside the house smiled and said, "With my family's mouth, are you still afraid that the little thief will come in?" Okay, I'll be relieved if you're okay."
”
Lu Chunhua smiled: "Thank you, sister-in-law Yang." ”
After hearing the voice gradually fade away, Lu Chunhua suddenly whispered to Wu Molang: "You don't want to leave quickly!"
Wu Molang hurriedly got up from the ground and said to Lu Chunhua: "Then I will leave the affairs of my Hun family to Mrs." With that, Wu Molang tiptoed out of the house and took the door.
When he left, the string that Lu Chunhua had tightened in his brain was loosened. She covered herself tightly with the quilt and wailed in the quilt. She was terrified.
After crying, Lu Chunhua secretly pondered again, and she said in her heart: "If what Wu Molang said is true, then the minister is too confused about what he did today." He wants to be tried again at a later date, doesn't he just leave time for the Pan family to find someone to dredge up? Could it be that he has been belittled again and again, so he has become disheartened with the court and changed his nature?" Thinking of this, Lu Chunhua couldn't help but feel sorry for Hei Baolai again. Suddenly, Lu Chunhua remembered the scene when she and Heibao first met, in the backyard of the Lu family. At that time, Lu Chunhua's father intended to match the two, so he let the two talk alone in the backyard.
The young man is handsome, but there is a lot of wind and frost between his eyebrows and eyes.
Heibao seems to have never been alone with a woman like this, and in the face of a girl like Lu Chunhua who is knowledgeable and has a lovely appearance, he didn't even look at it. Lu Chunhua saw that although he was handsome, he was too boring, and Heibao began to memorize "All Tang Poems" by himself after meditating.
Lu Chunhua was about to find something to talk about, when she saw Heibao looking at her and said, "The stream trees contain morning rain, and the mountain birds are in spring." I have a scoop of wine to soothe the dust. Miss Lu, how about reciting poetry below?"
Lu Chunhua was stunned at the time, and smiled helplessly: "Okay, the words are round, good and tight." ”
Hei Bao said: "We Han people write and pay attention to correct characters. When you speak, you have to talk about it again. This is in line with the rules of our Han people, we must be honest in doing things and be tactful. But I lived for almost thirty years, and I was neither upright nor tactful. ”
When she heard this, Lu Chunhua had gradually become interested in Heibao.
Heibao continued: "I have only learned one stupid word, and I often say stupid things and do stupid things. If I make a stupid mistake today, I hope the girl will forgive me. ”
Lu Chunhua said: "Childe said that he laughed. But in her heart, she wanted to see what stupid things Heibao was going to do, and to hear what stupid things Heibao was going to say. Hei Bao continued: "I want to propose to Ling Zun, and I want the girl to marry me. Lu Chunhua was stunned, her face blushed for a long time, and she replied: "Marrying me is not a stupid thing, it is the first fortunate thing in the world." ”
Hei Bao smiled: "Yes, it is a blessing for me, but it is a disaster for the girl." Lu Chunhua laughed very much, she knew that Heibao was not boring, but too interesting.
Since the two got married, Lu Chunhua found that half of Heibao's words were untrustworthy and half of them were trustworthy. Half of what can be believed is that Heibao is indeed not tactful enough. But it's not that he doesn't know how to be tactful, it's that he doesn't want to be tactful. The half who can't be believed, is marrying Heibao as his wife, not a disaster, but a blessing. Black Treasure says he's not upright enough, and that's because he's getting to the point of nearing stupidity. As soon as Hei Bao went to the Imperial History Platform to take office, he took twenty-four excerpts, and almost all the big and small officials in the court were included in a book. The consequence of this is that it will be degraded again and again.
But no matter where Heibao is demoted, he is conscientious and meticulous in his work. Until this time, after Heibao was demoted to a commoner and promoted to a county magistrate, he had a slight change. He doesn't like to work, he just likes to be with Lu Chunhua at home. Although Lu Chunhua was happy in her heart, she was also afraid. She is afraid that Heibao will no longer stick to his heart, but will join the world.
Thinking of this, Lu Chunhua muttered: "I am his wife, and I have the responsibility to control him and not let him go the wrong way." When he comes back this time, I'm going to give him a good beating. ”
As soon as Lu Chunhua thought about it, she heard the sound of small footsteps in the yard. Lu Chunhua smiled, she knew that this was Heibao's return. Every time Heibao came back from the county office, he tried to slow down his steps and not wake up Lu Chunhua.
Heibao pushed the door into the house, only to hear Lu Chunhua say, "Xianggong, are you back?"
Heibao smiled and said, "Lady, I woke you up again." ”
Lu Chunhua didn't speak, just sobbed in a low voice.
Hei Bao's heart froze, he hurriedly took the lamp and followed the sound. Lu Chunhua sat on the bed, crying pear blossoms with rain. Heibao threw the oiled paper bag he was holding on the table, and immediately sat down on the bed, took Lu Chunhua's hand, and asked softly, "Lady, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Chunhua hugged Heibao and cried loudly: "Xianggong, I'm sorry for you!"
Hei Bao's heart trembled, and he hurriedly asked, "Who bullied you?"
Lu Chunhua bit her lip lightly and muttered for a long time before she said, "Xianggong, less than an hour ago, someone came in and forced ...... Forced me!"
"Ahh Lady, I'm sorry for you...... I'll go to the county government and mobilize all the catchers......" Hei Bao was suddenly speechless, and Lu Chunhua lightly covered Hei Bao's mouth with her hand. She stared into Heibao's eyes, already swaying. I only heard her say: "Xianggong, you let me die alone." This matter must not be revealed, it will ruin your reputation. ”
Heibao took Lu Chunhua's hand down and wondered, "Why did this ruin my reputation?"
Lu Chunhua said: "If the prime minister catches that person, do you have to ask me to go to court to testify?"
Heibao nodded, "It's natural. ”
Lu Chunhua asked again: "Then do I have to tell the truth?"
Heibao nodded, "Naturally." ”
Lu Chunhua cried again, and she said, "Xianggong, don't blame me. It was dark in the house, and I was sleeping soundly at that time, and at first I thought that bad guy was your father-in-law...... I thought at first...... I feel very happy...... If I say this verse as well, then I will become an adulterous slut with others, and others will naturally scold you!"
"Rejoicing. These two words were like a pair of sharp knives, piercing into Heibao's heart. He let go of Lu Chunhua, came to the table in despair, and sat on the stool. He just felt that his throat was dry and he wanted to drink water. He picked up a bowl and brought it to his lips, but it was empty. Heibao's hand hung down weakly, his head bowed, and his body kept trembling. After a while, I saw that there was already half a bowl of water in the empty bowl. But the water is not sweet, but salty and bitter.
There were tear stains on Heibao's cheeks, and the tear stains were embedded in the flesh, and they became two furrows. Lu Chunhua wiped her tears, got out of bed, and sat down opposite Heibao. She opened the oil-paper bag that Heibao had brought home, only to see that the oil-paper was wrapped in eight square red bean cakes.
Lu Chunhua picked up a piece of red bean cake with her slender jade fingers, white and tender hands, red cakes, the two colors contrasted, and it was indescribably good-looking. Lu Chunhua brought the red bean cake to Heibao and said softly: "Xianggong, eat a piece of cake." ”
Heibao didn't know how he took the red bean cake and put it in his mouth. He just touched his upper teeth against his lower teeth, like a walking corpse, chewing woodenly.
Suddenly, Heibao stopped crying.
He said, "Lady, I figured it out. ”
Lu Chunhua asked, "Xianggong, what do you understand?"
Hei Bao smiled bitterly: "I want to understand, this red bean cake is sweet." ”
Lu Chunhua couldn't cry or laugh, she said: "The red bean cake is sweet, do you need to say this?"
Heibao nodded and said, "Yes, it's such a simple truth, but I didn't understand it at first." Red bean cake is sweet in your mouth no matter what time of day. Just like doing that, even if you are reluctant, you will feel more or less happy. I admit that when I first heard the word "pleasure" from the lady, my heart felt like it had been plucked out of life, and it hurt terribly. I still blame you in my heart, blame you for not feeling happy, you should be in a lot of pain. But this is impossible...... It's like now, I don't have any appetite at all, but eating that red bean cake still feels very sweet. ”
Lu Chunhua took Heibao's hand and asked, "Xianggong, don't you blame me?" Don't you think I'm a shameless slut?"
Heibao said softly: "I feel sorry for the lady too late, how can I blame you? And it was you who was killed, why did you become a slut? Lady, you must not think about it, you have to live well, and see with your own eyes that the villain is brought to justice." ”
Lu Chunhua suddenly smiled and said, "Xianggong, how can you understand it from yourself, and you are confused from others?"
When Heibao heard this, he was puzzled. Lu Chunhua smiled and said: "Fortunately, you didn't dislike me, if you dare to dislike me, then I will castrate you while you are sleeping." ”
Hei Bao looked at Lu Chunhua and smiled, and he was also relieved. He smiled and said: "I don't dare to sleep in the future, I want to keep my eyes open all the time to protect my mother, and not let my mother suffer any more grievances." ”
Lu Chunhua sighed and said, "Yes, I was almost bullied by others." ”
Hei Bao became more and more confused, and he said, "Lady, what are you talking about?"
Lu Chunhua stood up, leaned forward, and kissed Hei Bao lightly on the cheek. At this time, she told Heibao about Wu Molang. And just directed and acted in this play, Lu Chunhua also wanted to see if Hei Bao was prejudiced against that Simon Lian. As the saying goes, the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear. Heibao, as an authority at the moment, can see things clearly, but as a bystander, how can he not see other people's things clearly?
Heibao smiled and said, "Lady, this joke can't be made again in the future." ”
Lu Chunhua said: "Xianggong wants me to open it, but I won't open it, seeing you crying, my heart doesn't know how much it hurts." ”
Hei Bao sighed: "You must be thinking in your heart, did I accept the benefits of Pan Qing before I chose a day for retrial, right?"
Lu Chunhua nodded and said, "Xianggong, I don't lie to you, I did think so." Because I'm afraid, I'm afraid you've changed. ”
Hei Bao smiled and said: "Lady, you don't know, in today's public court, the people who are watching are all invited by the Pan family to build momentum for Pan Qing. There is also the master in the county government, who catches fast, and also receives the benefits of the Pan family. I'm in the courtroom, and I'm really a little lonely. I chose to retry at a later date, mainly because Simon Lian was beaten with a stick, and the injury was not light, so she should go home quickly to recuperate. And the most important point, if I convict Pan Qing today. Do you think Wu Molang and his wife can survive tonight?"
Lu Chunhua exclaimed when she heard this, and her busy hands covered her mouth. After a while, she said: "What I started to think was too simplistic, if Pan Qing is convicted, not only will Wu Molang and his wife suffer, but as long as his wife and wife die, there will be no proof of death." In the future, his Pan family will dredge up again, and he can fabricate black and white and acquit Pan Qing. ”
Hei Bao nodded and said, "Yes, so I have to think of ideas to see how to confirm Pan Qing's sin." ”
Lu Chunhua pursed her lips, shook Heibao's arm, and said coquettishly: "Xianggong, I blame you by mistake." ”
Heibao was silent, he picked up a piece of red bean cake and said with a smile: "Lady, eat cake." ”
