Chapter Eighty-Six: Someone Else's Story
Yang Yi, male, twenty-eight years old, a person from Beijing, and the son-in-law of the Wu family, a big family in Beijing.
The eldest lord of the Wu family was an official in the court, and the official worshiped the secretary of the military department, and was good at military affairs, but he was also greedy for money.
The second master of the Wu family was far away in Yunling County, serving as the governor of Yunling, and leading the soldiers of Yunling County as the governor.
The third master of the Wu family has never been an official, but is in business, because of the relationship between the two elder brothers, the business houses in his hands are all over the country, and Yang Yi is his son-in-law.
The three masters of the Wu family separated three years ago because of the death of the old man.
However, the three brothers never broke off.
Therefore, the Wu family has been prosperous in recent years, cooking oil with fire, and blooming with brocade, there is no metaphor for this.
When the emperor advocated the Northern Expedition, the Wu family was one step to the sky, the eldest master of the Wu family was known to be good at military affairs, and the emperor naturally knew it, and the emperor didn't seem to care about his greed for money, so he directly let the eldest master of the Wu family follow him to the Northern Expedition.
And the emperor ordered the tax of Jiangnan to be paid before the end of October this year, and the tax of Yunling County immediately began to be paid, and it was paid in mid-July, and the edict was only issued for more than ten days, and it may not be long before it reached Yunling County.
The third master didn't make any achievements, but he helped the eldest master open a cargo route on the route of the great army, helping the great army to transport grain, grass and military supplies, but it was mostly some loose pieces, how could the really important things be transported by merchants.
Yang Yi has no ambitions, otherwise he would not have come to the Wu family to be a son-in-law.
Don't do much, don't eat much, don't think much, don't walk much, this is Yang Yi's four not much, also known as not much death.
The Yang family is not a wealthy family, but it is not a small family, at least there is a shop and a small house in the capital.
It's a pity that the family is in the middle of the road and loses the shadow of the ancestors.
People are poor and short-lived, and in order to make a living, Yang Yi went to Wu's house to be a door-to-door son-in-law.
This is also because Master Wu San did not have a son and gave birth to three daughters, and he also loved his daughter and didn't want to marry his daughter, so he recruited him, Yang Yi was selected because of his good appearance and was selected to be the husband of his eldest daughter.
The Wu family treated him well, and saw that he was a scholar and felt that it was a little useful, so they helped him open a private school.
The head of the Wu family's family has people studying in this private school, so Yang Yi's status in the Wu family is not low, he is considered a Wu family, not a senior long-term worker.
Yang Yi is not bad, he is self-aware, he doesn't cause trouble, he doesn't really treat himself as a family member, and he lives in the cautious and cautious Wu family.
However, Yang Yi also made some friends, and he didn't make some friends who were full of mouths, these people were pretentious and looked down on him, and they didn't have to look at him when they saw him on the road.
Therefore, Yang Yi has made most of the bold people, such as Zhu Erdan and others are his friends.
The two met at a restaurant, drank a few sips of wine together, and then slept in the same bed for one night, and the two became friends.
Zhu Erdan talked to Yang Yi about a lot of things like ghosts, such as his own story.
Yang Yi, although he is a little lazy, is not good at ghosts and does not believe in ghosts and gods.
But he is full of numerology and is also a strange person.
Zhu Erdan also told Yang Yi about Gu Ren he met in the capital.
"Fake Taoist! You must have learned martial arts, so you can't set up his stall. Yang Yi said seriously.
He also saw the big changes in the capital that night, and he also saw the scene of the emperor riding a golden dragon and white tiger, but he didn't think it was a strange thing, or in the category of martial arts, but martial arts were practiced to the depths.
If the emperor is an immortal, then the Great Dynasty will be in such a dilemma a few years ago, and his Yang family will still fall in the middle of the road, so Yang Yi does not believe in ghosts and gods, although the reason is inexplicable, but he really does not believe it.
So the Death Squad was formed.
"Brother Mo Sheng, I heard that there is a haunted mansion on the East Street where I live, would you like to go with me to find out?" Zhu Erdan said.
"It may not work tonight, my father-in-law urged us to have a child again, so ......" Yang Yi said helplessly.
"......" Zhu Erdan was speechless when he heard it.
"Give birth to a noble son early!"
"I'm curious. "Jurdan will not give up.
"Xiao Ming, the meeting is close at hand, don't delay such a big event. Yang Yi admonished.
"Well, exactly, thank you Brother Mo Sheng for reminding me, the younger brother will definitely have his head cantilevered and stabbed his head and won a meritorious name. Zhu Erdan immediately said.
The Death Squad was disbanded.........
After three or four more drinks, the two dispersed.
Zhu Erdan went back to review his homework, while Yang Yi took another road to East Street.
The haunted house on East Street, Yang Yi knows where it is.
The Zhong family and Yang Yi also know each other, but they don't have deep friendships, and they can't have deep friendships, after all, the former Zhong family was a big family in the capital.
Yang Yi has seen the eldest lady of the Zhong family, with a graceful posture, a graceful walk, a melon seed face, condensed skin, and a lonely and cold face, like a fairy in the sky.
Yang Yi was fascinated by her at a glance, but unfortunately the door was not right, how could the Zhong family take a fancy to him, and then the Yang family was down, and the Zhong family looked down on him even more.
Later, Yang Yi heard that the old man of the Zhong family had offended the nobles of the court, and was degraded to Jinling, where he died after a few years as an official.
During this period, Yang Yi became the son-in-law of the Wu family, and the eldest lady of the Zhong family died of typhoid fever.
The two people who are not on the same line seem to be so unlucky.
If it weren't for the fact that Yang Yi couldn't forget her after seeing the eldest lady of the Zhong family, maybe he wouldn't have the idea that the two of them had something in common.
Walking to East Street, Yang Yi felt more lonely in his heart.
The East Street he had seen was once quite prosperous, but now it was lonely because of a rumor.
Yang Yi walked a hundred steps and came to the door of the Zhong family.
But the first thing he saw was a small tower blocked in the doorway.
After Yang Yi glanced at the small tower repeatedly, he turned around and left.
At this time, the sky will be dark, and this useless little section of East Street is lonely, and it feels oozing when you stand for a while.
After Yang Yi stood for a while, he looked at Xiao Ta and thought for a long time before leaving.
He was already a man with a family, and the unrealistic fantasies of his youth should have been thrown to the dog long ago.
I don't know if the dog eats it.........
Yang Yi returned home slowly, and after having dinner with his wife, Yang Yi practiced calligraphy, read the book he didn't finish yesterday, and then went to bed at the urging of his wife.
After paying the public grain, Yang Yi fell asleep deeply.
Yang Yi had a dream, he dreamed that the eldest lady of the Zhong family married him, and the two shared the same bed.
But just when everything was beautiful, the eldest lady of the Zhong family became a pile of dry bones.
And this pile of dry bones can still walk and stand and talk to him.
"Why didn't you come to me earlier?"
“............”
