Chapter 21 Chapter Twenty-one

Sure enough, as soon as the maid retreated to the outside room, she saw Yun Qing walking in.Yuan Sun had already delivered the cigarettes to Mrs. Liu. When he saw Yunqing coming in, he felt embarrassed, so he sat up and said, "Mrs. Liu doesn't know how to burn cigarettes. Mrs. He asked me to burn one for you. Go to the front hall to watch my sister play cards." Seeing his blushing and unnatural voice, Yunqing smiled secretly in his heart, and before he could speak, Mrs. He said: "We haven't said anything about asking you here. It's great to chat here." Then he said to Yun Qing: "Your younger brother is really kind, sister Liu's family feels sad when she thinks about it again today, and we can't burn cigarettes well, because I heard that my third brother often burns cigarettes on behalf of the old lady, so I want to invite you He helped out, but he was as tender-faced as the young lady, and it was so hard to bother him to burn a mouthful before leaving. I know he listens to my sister the most, please say something." Yunqing said to Yuansun "Both of them are good sisters of mine. They are both very kind. We are used to being generous. They are not as restrained as women in the north when they meet men. Just lie down." Yuan Sunyi and the young lady Embarrassed to lie down, but also wanting to see what you want, you will not be disturbed, intending to take the opportunity to retreat, and go to the female living room to fulfill the promise of Luhua, so as not to be embarrassed here for a long time, and it is inconvenient to refuse firmly, so I have to lie down again.

Yuansun and Yunqing were originally childhood sweethearts, but because of their family age and various relationships, they failed to live together as they wished.Now we meet again in a different place, although Luofu has a husband, and both parties are from the Shili family, so there will be no other thoughts, but the young people love each other deeply, and sister Yunqing was lonely when she was young. Marrying a husband is coerced by the evil clan, and the love is unavoidable. Although they treat each other very well, it is not what they want. Every time they think of their life experience, they feel sad and have nothing to say.Suddenly I met Yuansun Tianya and looked at them like relatives. Last night, I hurriedly talked to each other. To prevent my eyes and ears, I didn't dare to say it clearly, but I already knew each other.At this time, the selfishness of children has turned into a relationship of flesh and blood, and it is more cordial than in the early years. Both sides have a deep confidant and never confide in it. They are only busy with Yuansu affairs, they arrive too late, and there are many female guests , It's hard to tell your heart.Following a game of cards, he met Mrs. Liu and Lin Luhua, two peerless beauties, both of whom hit it off at first sight and seemed to have a crush on each other.Even though he learned etiquette at a young age, he knew he was vigilant, after all, he was young and passionate, and he couldn't help but like it naturally. Lian Yunqing also temporarily forgot about it, but the two were born to be Qiuju Chunlan, each good at winning.One is born with beauty, as beautiful as a fairy, and the pearls and jades flow naturally, innocent and pure, without the slightest smell of tobacco and alcohol. For example, for the gods in the sky, just love them very much, and don't allow arrogance to think about them.The other is the fit of autumn fibers, the whole body is glamorous, the young woman is elegant and graceful, which is already fascinating, but the tenderness is naturally revealed, making it more and more ecstasy. But reluctant to leave.

Later, I heard the maid said that the living room played cards and left first. I remembered Luhua's appointment and was about to leave. Yunqing hurried in again. One was an old friend, the other was a new knowledge. I also thought that Yunqing's married woman, who was originally a relative, suddenly became sympathetic, had a hasty meeting yesterday, only according to the titles of her sisters and her tone, and didn't know what He Naifu said, so when she saw Fang Chengde, she didn't even speak. Did not dare to say more.His family has many eyes and ears, even if they meet again, they may not be able to speak freely.Although she is in heat, she is self-confident and self-confident, but her demeanor is intimate, and if she speaks a little wrongly, people will be suspicious. Seeing that Liu and He have a good relationship with her, it would be better to have a few words in camera at this time.As soon as he changed his mind, he used the excuse of burning cigarettes to lie on his hands and chatted and laughed with each other.Mrs. Liu turned her legs slightly inward, let Yunqing sit on the couch beside her, took two puffs of the cigarette Yuan Sun had made, thanked her with a smile, and then Mrs. He went up to smoke, and still invited Yuan Sun Dai Shao, sitting down on the small sofa in front of the couch, asked Yuan Sun about the situation in Nanzhong, and said that he wrote letters to friends in Suzhou and Shanghai to inquire about the whereabouts of a surnamed Yang named Shaomei. Yes, keep it in mind.Yunqing then roughly talked about what He Naifu said through casual chat.

Yuan Sun could tell that he considered himself an aunt and cousin, but on the other hand he knew that he was the adopted daughter who had been with his father since she was a child.He also knew that Fang Chengde was deeply attached to him because of his beauty and talent. After passing through the door, he handed out all important military documents, and Chengde became more and more respectful.When seeing Yunqing, she felt sad about her life experience, thinking that it was caused by the first wife, and she was happy for Bo Yunqing. She wanted to abandon her first wife several times, but she didn't know such behavior. Not allowed, instead forced Yuan Pei to be picked up.The first wife is also the daughter of a good family, she is quite honest, she knows that her husband is unlucky, and it is all thanks to Yun Qingwei to let Shi Fangqiu Fan see the donation. Push Yunqing to be the master.After staying for a few days, and making the children treat them like their own mothers, they took the children back to their hometown to spend another day.Yunqing couldn't keep him, so he had to persuade Chengde to buy more land in his hometown, and often sent money for his children's education.Seeing her like this, Chengde naturally admired her very much, but he didn't know why she was sad, and repeatedly questioned her, but Yunqing couldn't help it, so he had to say that her natal family was weak and had no relatives, so she was sad to think about it.Chengde was afraid that people would become sick from depression, so he brought his sister Luhua over.

After the death of her mother, sister Yunqing's family property was embezzled and sold by her uncle Lin Wenquan, who was in charge of it. In the end, she forced Yunqing to marry a powerful local soldier. , extremely sad and indignant, first wrote an article, went to the grave of his parents and cried in front of Wenquan's funeral, scolded Wenquan to the point of embarrassment, and then said that the marriage was allowed, and he had to meet and discuss with the man first.Wenquan Jinwang is greedy and stupid. Firstly, sister Yunqing is getting older and often deceived. She already understands that there are still several land deeds in hand. No matter how much she brags, she regards them as the source of education and life, and refuses. After handing over, the tenant farmers and the Lin family have known each other for a long time, and everyone is loyal and upright, and they will not be hooked.Knowing that Fang Chengde is the most powerful in the garrison, he is now looking for beauties. He thinks that a weak girl has nothing to bully. He wants to embezzle the rest of his property and make friends with powerful people, so he steals Yunqing's photo without asking. The exhibition was transferred to the trustee to offer to Chengde.The lecherous man in Chengde naturally likes the photo when he sees it, and immediately agrees.Wenquan felt that the scheme had been accomplished and was extremely happy, but he didn't know that he mentioned it when he got home, and he scolded Yunqing for being unscrupulous, resolutely refused, and swore himself to death.Wen Quan has already agreed to the other party. He didn't want Yun Qing to be so gentle and strong in nature, but the other party is also impatient, and he is constantly urging him. He has been in trouble for several days. To the extreme, Yunqing remained unmoved.People are afraid of going all out, Wen Quan has no choice but to reply to the other party, who knows that Fang Chengde has already taken a fancy to it, and he insists on it, and said that it was you who asked for it, and I did not force it by force.Often when I am easy to bully, don't blame me for being rude.

Wen Quan was overwhelmed by the power, backed away in fright, and begged Yun Qing again, insisted on his interests, and even knelt down.On the one hand, he was even more afraid that Yunqing would be forced to find short-sightedness, and he was on guard day and night. It was easy for her to vomit, just like the emperor's amnesty, and she was overjoyed. I would like to marry, but I don’t believe my words, the young man in Chengde is handsome, and I like it just by meeting him.” Busily went to the man’s house to deliver a letter.Chengde was just eager to meet, and he came as soon as he heard the news. Yunqing came out in plain clothes and talked eloquently.Chengde likes this kind of talented woman the most. He falls in love with her at first sight and is shocked to be a heavenly man. She is much better than the photos.Seeing that he was not as evil as expected, Yunqing changed his mind a little, and made three chapters with Chengde, ordering him to marry him with courtesy, while paining Sister Chen in front of Wenquan for her helplessness, being invaded and bullied.Wen Quan was originally a poor man, and his parents had been working for him in the day-to-day friendship of the same clan, and made him the surrogate of the family business to have enough food and clothing.Parents are ignorant when they die.I have a miserable life experience, and I have to be the master.Chengde is already extremely in love. Seeing her sister's miserable appearance, she burst into tears. She wanted to vent her anger and please her, but also resented Wenquan's inhumanity. Don't go, on the surface, Wen Quan is still the officiant of the bride's family, and welcomes you as promised.Although Wenquan was ashamed and anxious at the time, seeing that Chengde still made himself famous and married for a woman's family, he thought that the matter was over.When the two parties are officially married, at most Chengde will not give the daughter he wants to thank the ceremony. He must recite the merits of the beauty, so as not to listen to the words of the pillow and embarrass himself.With wishful thinking in mind, I want to walk around as relatives in the future.

On the third day, Chengde suddenly ordered an adjutant to send a thousand yuan Xie Yi to fulfill the previous agreement, and Wenquan felt that Chengde wanted to repay.I was happy, and wanted to thank him, so I asked him to find something.As soon as the visitor was sent away, the police department came to arrest him. The director personally questioned the case and scolded Wenquan for bullying the weak and the weak. manage.Wenquan is very addicted to cigarettes, knowing that the case has been handed over by powerful people, and ten thousand strong people can't do it, so he has to bear the pain and agree, draw a bond to ask for security, and rush to Lin's house in a hurry, weeping at Luhua, and begging for help.Luhua asked what was going on, and then taunted Wenquan for a while, saying that he was ignorant and deserved retribution.The brother-in-law is not familiar with the new relatives, so it is inconvenient to intercede.Wenquan cried and begged again and again, and brought his wife and children to kneel and cry around him. In the past, he took over the family business on behalf of him. Can afford it?If Mr. Fang is pressing you hard, wouldn't he want me to die and cut off the whole family's livelihood?

Luhua knew that most of his property and property were stolen except for stealing and stealing. He borrowed the name of an outsider and planned to buy it at a very low price. Now he has become a rich man. It's nonsense.Wuru's daughter's family is always soft-hearted, seeing his whole family begging and weeping.Wenquan has a daughter named Qiaozhen, who grew up with Luhua and was a classmate. She is only four years older than Luhua. Although she is not as beautiful as Yunqing sisters, she is also quite charming and more dexterous. Good at serving people, able to win the favor of the two daughters, used to often go together, go in and out of each other, easy to wear clothes and shoes, and have a close relationship.Although Nai's father deceived the orphaned daughter and became richer and richer, and the two daughters' feelings for Wenquan became worse and worse, Qiaozhen still often came to perfunctory.The young girl has a very scheming mind, she is usually lonely, and rarely sees her relatives. She doesn't know that Wenquan has a deep heart, and deliberately ordered her daughter to pretend to be intimate with the two daughters.What's more, because Qiaozhen is good at talking and deceiving, behind her back, she often scolds her father as inhumane, takes the grievances on behalf of her, and thinks she is a good person. At first, she is completely defenseless.After a year or two, Yunqing grew older, and gradually discovered the flaws, realized the tricks, and then knew how to be on guard, and stopped pouring out secrets, but his own falsehood has long been lost.Especially Luhua was young and childish, although she also believed in her sister's words, she didn't tell her confidants anymore, because she didn't have a good companion in school, so she couldn't let her go.Until this time when Yun Qing got married, Qiao Zhen threatened and lured her on behalf of her father, she spoke so viciously, she showed her mask, and the second daughter changed her face with her, and they didn't get along for more than a month. , Lidai Nai's father repented and made a statement, crying like tears, and his words were euphemistic and touching. He couldn't bear it, so he went to Fang's house to persuade Yunqing.

Yun Qing first only planned to vent his anger a little, and didn't want to chase back the lost property and property. He just wanted to please Fang Chengde's loving wife, and at the same time ordered him to send Jin Xieyi to him to show that his own words meant what he said. On the one hand, he entrusted the court of the police department to send Wenquan to chase after the swallowed property, thinking that Luhua had plans for the future.Seeing his sister's kindness and soft face, when the younger sister said it, Yunqing agreed to forgive him, and said with a smile: "It seems that uncle is a man, and it is not too much to shoot him. He is a poor man. He has been taken care of by his parents-in-law until today, since your day I said, I ordered someone to investigate, and even the land property and family wealth is close to 100,000. He only did small things of 30 to 40 yuan with his father-in-law twice in his life. May I ask which one is not from the parents-in-law's house? Now your sister only has a limited amount of land. He still refuses to let go, how can such a human being tolerate him? You pity him, did he have any heart when he harmed your sister before? He bullied his granddaughter, usurped property, and even sold your sister. How poisonous, your sister only cares about being soft-hearted, and my sister is willing to live with my husband and wife. In the future, there will be a lot of expenses for studying and paying for the cabinet, and the family will have millions. It is not worth being exploited by such a good person, let alone this Ge Ge? You just open your mouth, I will obey everything, but I will explain the benefits and losses, recover the lost land when I am able to work, and entrust someone else to take care of it, so that I can study with peace of mind. If I really want to be bullied and occupied by good people, I can't." Yun Qing After thinking about it, the results of the sisters' discussion were not too much, and they made a compromise. Xu Yi didn't pursue it, and only ordered him to return 40% of the money and rice that had been eroded over the years. The original price of the forced sale was redeemed.It was decided that Luhua would reply, Fang Chengde said with a smile: "How can such a method work? It is hard to give up good fortune, especially this kind of mean and ungrateful villain. Don't listen to your kind intentions. He will never know good or bad. You don't want it, he also holds a grudge, and when my sister came home, she was pestered and tortured by a big disturbance, and she was still annoying. As a result, Tian Cai couldn't get back, causing trouble for nothing. It's best for my sister to stay at my house temporarily, and I will trust someone Do it, let him spit it out. I am the only one who hates it, but your sister is a good person." Sister Yunqing agreed.

Chengde ordered the police department to go to the detainees and detain them before they could talk again, and said that Wenquan was abominable, and that he would send him to the Military Law Office for prosecution and seize all his property.Wenquan is a treacherous and cunning man, well aware of the sexuality of the two women, he predicted that the bitter plan would surely succeed, he waited for a long time for Luhua not to return, he was suspicious, ordered Qiaozhen to wait, and at the same time went home to move property, sell the land, and plan to escape in a hurry .Unexpectedly, people from Chengde are smarter than him, they have already been surrounded by a net, and their actions are monitored, so they got anxious and bravely went to Fang's house to ask to see the second daughter, and when they arrived at the door, they were insulted and thrown out.When the deadline is reached, the premature addiction has not yet passed, so I eat and grab it.Chengde ordered Luhua to go home and be a good person, and said to Qiaozhen: "Chengde was indignant because of this matter, he has a straight temper, and he will do what he says, and his sister insisted on not listening to her persuasion." Wenquan was detained for three days, and then released. Threatened, with the help of tobacco and drugs, he managed to send him in. Although he was able to linger on his last breath, he was used to enjoying life in prison, and he couldn't bear to live in prison. When he passed the court this day, he couldn't help explaining it to the officials.He had already been hoisted up, but he suddenly received a phone call from the Superintendent's Office, ordering Wenquan to be escorted to the Military Law Office for interrogation tomorrow morning.Wen Quan was heartbroken at first, and when he heard that he was going to be handed over to the Military Law Office, he became more and more distraught. Fortunately, the officer said: "Since the Military Law Office has arrested him, there is no need to beat him again."Knowing that if he refuses to admit it again, his old life must be ruined, he has no choice but to kneel and cry and meet each other, begging for mercy, willing to spit out the property he swallowed.The officer first scolded him, but said that the villain didn't care.When Wenquan saw that he was about to leave the court, he knew that once he returned to the Military Law Office, the tobacco and medicine would not be sent in first. He would suffer for nothing and die, and his property would still not be preserved.At that time, people were sent to escort him to his home, and he handed over what was at hand first, and the inquiring officer thought that he had made a false phone call to intercede with Fang Chengde and the Military Law Office, and ordered people to escort Wen Quan home, as he said. , First chase out the bank book and the field deed.

Beforehand, Chengde investigated and found out that Wenquan could not deny it, and there was no way to call, so he handed it over with heartache. Seventy-eight out of ten of the whole property was gone in one go. It must be paid in accordance with the limit to complete the work.After thinking about it, apart from clothes, he couldn't even keep his own house.In recent years, the whole family has become accustomed to eating, and the thousand yuan reward for selling the niece is not enough to cover the embezzlement. He is penniless, his reputation is bankrupt, his index fingers are numerous, and he is addicted to cigarettes. How will he live in the future?The crime is self-inflicted, and the scheming in the past is useless at all. In the end, he only paid the bail and never remanded.Seeing that the deadline is approaching, and no one is willing to pay for the house in a hurry, the whole family is weeping, regretting and complaining, unable to do anything, Qiaozhen suddenly hears from a classmate that Luhua has sold out the vacation, and hurriedly goes to Zhijiang Middle School to meet, pulls aside, Dai Naifu knelt down and cried for help.Luhua said: "My brother-in-law, a soldier, hates evil like a vengeance. Originally, my uncle is so heartless that I can't blame him. My sister blames my uncle for being cunning and scheming, embezzling so many fields, and finally sold her to the soldier as a slave. Fortunately. It’s my sister’s wife, and I’m marrying you as a royal wife, otherwise, wouldn’t you kill her? If she dies, sooner or later I will be killed by my uncle. I can’t say anything about the two of you, and I can’t beg for mercy. How dare I see you I have caught a cold for a few days, and I am recuperating at my sister's house, and I haven't gone to school, what's the use of begging me?" Qiaozhen made sense after thinking about it, and returned to Bao Wenquan at the time.The father and daughter went to the school together, and when school was over, they forcibly invited Luhua to come home. They cried again and begged, and they didn't look at anyone else. enough.Luhua couldn't bear it long ago, so she agreed to do it for her.Two days later, there was no reply, the house was not sold, another arrest came from the hall, and they were about to be escorted away after being humiliated in panic. Luhua suddenly arrived with Chengde's subordinate Ma Bian holding a letter. Promised, only ordered Wenquan to take Chengde's letter and go to the police station to file a record, and no longer pursue the remaining money, and that's it.Wenquan is like an amnesty from the emperor, and the whole family is grateful to Luhua, full of sorrow and joy.You Wenquan followed the visitor to the hall to finish the case as he said. Wenquan suffered such setbacks, and unexpectedly found out that he knew that he was sinful, and that what he had done was inhuman, and after remorse, he ate a long fast and worshiped the Buddha.After more than half a year, Sister Yunqing felt that although he was not good, he was still a family. Seeing that his father and daughter were in a difficult situation and their words were pitiful, Luhua came forward to refund the original price of the land that was planned to be returned one after another.Wen Quan and his daughter were worried that they would not be able to make ends meet in the future, so they were naturally overjoyed and grateful. They knelt before God and swore that they would change their minds and never dare to have another heart.Sister Yunqing is not good at land management, and Yunqing is married, and Luhua has taken back the property, which has caused a lot of trouble in daily life. The spring and autumn are especially busy, which is very uncomfortable. Trustworthy people can be entrusted, which is a difficult situation.From the second year onwards, it was discovered that Wenquan had become better. After managing it for a year, the situation was well known, and even if it was eroded, it was limited. I tried to entrust some troublesome ones to take care of them, and discussed with Chengde to find him. a trifle.Wenquan was eager to redeem his sins and make friends with this good relative, but he changed his past mistakes and took care of it with all his heart, and returned it to the public, which was more beneficial than Luhua's self-management. As a result, the enemy became a relative, and half of the property was restored.Yunqing didn't want the property at first, so he gave it to Luhua alone. Soon, he went to work in other provinces with her husband, leaving Luhua to study in Hangzhou, and Wenquan and his daughter moved back home to be companions. This year, after graduating from Luhua Middle School, Yunqing came to Beijing with her husband. She remembered that her sister was getting older, and the photos she sent became more and more beautiful, and she had some land. Wenquan's letters often mentioned that if someone proposed marriage, he might meet again. Marriage is always worrying.Chengde saw that his beloved wife missed his sister, so he discussed with him, and sent a special person to Hangzhou to meet him. If he wanted to study in Beijing, he looked for a spouse.Luhua also missed her sister very much. After receiving the letter, she took care of the housework and went north immediately.At first, I only wanted to stay in Shanghai and Nanjing after the summer vacation and transfer to other places. After arriving in Beijing, I socialized with a group of rich ladies on a daily basis, and made a few sisters. Why bother with the south?Lu Hua couldn't bear to part with her sister, and her brother-in-law treats each other very politely. Once all the girlfriends tried to persuade her to stay, she changed her original plan and planned to go to university.When it was time for the exam, he suddenly fell ill with diphtheria, so he had to prepare to take the exam again next year, so he was delayed. When Yuan Sun heard that Luhua had already decided to study in Beijing, she would not return to the south for the time being, and she did not have a husband's family, she was overjoyed.After thinking about it, although my father fell in the Japanese family a few years ago, he was not as good as before. After all, he is much stronger than now.Not to mention that there are good and bad ones, Shan's father's literary and ink benefits are no less than four to five thousand yuan a year.Now there are several members of the family, mother, elder brother, and young children, and I am only a small matter, and it is not enough to support the family. How can I think of a family?This girl was born in a wealthy family, she was pampered since she was a child, she is from a poor family, and she is not used to daily life and food, even if she is a good person and able to endure hardships, she is embarrassed.There is a huge disparity between rich and poor, and I have a long way to go, with nothing to rely on. I have such delusional thoughts, and I may not succeed in talking about things. I said that his sisters valued me, and with their childhood affection, they promised generously, and they will be troubled in the future.The more I think about it, the more I feel that I can't match it, my heart feels cold, and I can't help but show it in my expression.Seeing that he was talking happily, Yunqing suddenly frowned, and remained silent, as if he had something on his mind.Fang wanted to ask a question, but Mrs. Liu asked first: "What's on your mind, third brother, why are you upset?" Yuan Sun forced a smile and replied, "Nothing on your mind." Mrs. Liu smiled and remained silent.Seeing her taking a few puffs of cigarettes, Yuan Sun was full of energy, her charming eyes were flowing, and she was doomed to herself with affection. Isn't it a natural beauty, a stunner in the world?Marrying such a smart and beautiful wife and concubine is a blessing that has been cultivated in a few lifetimes. It is only right that you should be gentle in your heart and support your eyelids.But according to the tone of the two of them, although Yun Qing's marriage was forced, it was not because of her original intentions. Finally, she will be greeted at the sixth ceremony, and Fang Chengde treats her well, but she is not in a very happy mood, and everything else will be fine. Pass.Mrs. Liu is such a smart and beautiful woman, she didn't hesitate to ruin herself in the haze, she knew her life experience was sad, there was something unspeakable, but there was a difference between a man and a woman, and it was the first time she met her, she couldn't comfort her, and she couldn't do her best, so she felt sorry for herself, Nothing can be done.The beauty is unlucky, it is the same in ancient and modern times, and my heart is regretful. Yun Qing saw that he sometimes forcibly beat his happy face, but finally couldn't hide his sad face, and said with a smile: "Third brother, my sisters are like brothers and sisters, and we can talk about anything in person. You had a good talk just now, and suddenly you are depressed, is it What's the reason? Don't you worry about coming thousands of miles away because of your mother? You have difficulties, others can't tell you, so why don't you hide it from me?" Ever since Yuan Sun came to Beijing, after his uncle died, he only had a lot of old relatives in Beijing. There are also cousins ​​and sisters. It is the first time I have heard such kind words. Hearing the words touched my heart, I felt more and more mixed feelings, and still replied with a forced smile: "Sister Yun is caring, I really don't have anything on my mind, but because of making uncle Unscrupulous, just think of an injustice by chance, and feel offended." When he said that, he was taking a big puff of cigarettes, because Mrs. Liu had already smoked enough, and Mrs. Xiao He switched cigarettes twice and did not get better, so she gave in. .Knowing that he was a man who refused to speak clearly, Yun Qing didn't ask further. Seeing that Yuan Sun had gotten up, he pushed Mrs. He to lie down.Mrs. Xiao He laughed and said: "The third brother is still lying on the opposite side, and it's the same when I smoke on the side of Sister Liu's family." No matter how unhappy you are, you don't want to hurt yourself." Mrs. He said: "We won't smoke it if we can compare with you." Yun Qing said: "Don't talk about your heart, sister Liu's sister is very sad. Naturally, it is no wonder that she is upset. If you want to say that you and elder sister are laughing and laughing all day long, and the master is obedient and obedient, what is there to be dissatisfied with? My family likes to smoke this, it is easy to play with, and it will naturally become addicted after a long time. Who is to blame?" As Mrs. He lay down, she turned her body inside and asked Yuan Sun to sit by her feet, but Yuan Sun refused.Yunqing then called the young lady standing in the outer room to bring in a chair, and then opened the small sofa for Yuansun to sit on, and the maid went to bring tea again. While they were talking, they heard that Chengde had gone home and was smoking in the upper room, so everyone was invited to chat.When we got inside, when we met each other, Chengde said with a smile: "You guys had fun today, and I would like to play a few rounds with you." Mrs. Liu said: "If you want to play cards, I have to accompany you, but if you want to At least twelve rounds, I don’t play short-lived cards for four rounds.” Chengde was smoking his pipe, before he could answer, he replied: “You can play as many rounds as you want, my sister will finish it in a while, and when I can’t finish it, I will Please represent." Followed the order of Xiaoma Bian to send a message and place cards.Although Yuansun wanted to leave, the Chengde couple were overjoyed, and he won a big win first. I was embarrassed, thinking that I was lucky, and I was just worrying about money. I won so much today. At most, I can't find the house for a while. My mother came In order to live in the hotel first, spend a few more money.For example, to win less tonight, not only to save haste, but also to let Shaozhang see it, so he didn't say yes or no.After a while, the card table in the outer room was set up, and while smoking a cigarette, Chengde chatted with Yuan Su to ask questions.Yun Qing knew that he still had a while to finish his cigarette, and the table in the living room was about to end, so he ordered the night snack to be arranged, and then went to the scene together after eating. While talking, he suddenly heard the sound of leather shoes stepping on the ground and rushed in from the outside. Seeing that it was Luhua, Yunqing asked, "Have you finished playing at that table?" Luhua smiled and replied: "The number is over, there are two The big loser stopped fighting, they are leaving, and the one who wants to smoke is in the elder sister's room, I will come here when I have something to do, and the elder sister will see the guests off." Yun Qing replied: "Why don't you let her eat? Go after midnight snack?" Luhua replied: "I will keep her, what can I do? Sister, go and keep the eldest sister of the He family. Where is the third brother?" Yunqing asked with a finger in his hand, and hurried out Going, I met Mrs. Dahe head-on, and said with a smile, "it's better for my sister to treat me well, and I know how to find it myself, before the master bothers me." Yun Qing said with a smile: "Sister, please sit inside, I will come This Seventh Miss is not happy to help me accompany my guests, and she wants me to go home by myself." While answering, she walked out.Mrs. He entered, and Luhua also walked in, and asked with a smile, "Why didn't the third brother come after he left?" Yuan Sun saw that she looked annoyed and happy, slightly sullen, and felt ashamed. Mrs. Da He walked in quickly, and said with a smile: "Smoking is a freehand thing, and it is boring when you are busy. I am afraid that I will be at the same table with Zheng Da He. You just lie down on the cigarette shop after eating, and you have not smoked yet." After taking two puffs, she has already asked two or three times, and if she doesn’t come here to wait and see, please think about how to smoke this cigarette well? I am better than my second sister and Mrs. Liu, and the addiction is not too big. There are many problems. I can't be in a hurry, so I get angry when I have her, and I simply smoke after beating. Fortunately, I am not addicted to smoking, and I can smoke at any time, otherwise I have to not be at the same table with her. This lady is also really strange, she likes it With us, she would come here even if we didn’t invite her. She was ridiculously stingy. Because I played cards with my little sister a few times, I always won, and I won the sweetness. 100,000 in cash, a young lady who didn't come out of the cabinet, she is young, and she just wants to take advantage of others. When I come here today, I will guard my little sister, for fear that I won't be able to sit at the same table. I don't know that the whole family will lose a lot. Look at the anxious look when she left. Don’t say that my little sister won’t fight with her, and I won’t fight with her either.” While talking, he sat down slowly, and then lay down on the bed above to smoke.Yuan Sun saw that she was a middle-aged lady, and her demeanor was much calmer than that of Mrs. He.Fang Chengde perfunctory casually, while showing her the fire and smoke.Yunqing said angrily in the outer room, "Aren't you going to have a drink with the guests first?" Chengde said, "Eldest sister hasn't smoked yet." She can't smoke anymore. It's still early for her to smoke, won't she ask the kitchen to reopen when she is young?" Mrs. Da He said: "It's better for my sister to be refreshing, and my brother-in-law will invite you first. It's better to let me enjoy myself alone. We have a deep friendship. Are you polite?" Chengde then agreed, and accompanied Yuan Sun to the living room. Because of the large number of customers that night, the night snack prepared in advance was much richer than yesterday.During the meal, Mrs. Xiao He said: "Sister Yun is so lucky. A violent person like my brother-in-law would follow everything. I heard from my master that we all played together in the alley, and my brother-in-law even greeted the girl and called her." Tiaozi, he never makes friends with others, and the people he greets are either small clearing coffins or old monsters, which means that they are only for entertaining friends, and they are willing to spend money, but they don’t want to stay overnight. Drunken, sometimes stiff and agitated, saying that he is afraid of his wife, and can't keep him, let alone begging for a younger one. It's not like other sisters who have just passed through the door, and then gradually changed their minds after a year at most. Like Eldest sister and I, although the master secretly prostitutes, it’s still good if we don’t get people from home and start a small house. The relationship between brother-in-law and husband is good, and it’s rare to live so comfortably, who can compare?" Chengde stopped his glass and laughed: "Do you know why my husband and wife have been married for many years and the relationship has not changed? There are many reasons. Everyone says that my wife is beautiful, which is good, but if I don't feel the beauty of the woman in the marriage I like How can you still marry? Beauty sounds reasonable at first glance, but in fact it is not a guarantee to maintain the love between husband and wife. Because of the man's temperament is greedy and unpredictable, when he is not handed over, his lover will see beauty in his eyes. The more he refuses, the more he insists on it, even if To sacrifice one's life for this, ruin one's reputation, no sacrifices will be spared. For example, a poor man who is extremely hungry, sees the delicacies of mountains and seas, and is so greedy that he is so greedy that he is so greedy that he is about to stretch out his hand. When he gets it, it is like suddenly becoming rich. He is overjoyed. I don’t think so. Apart from being beautiful, a woman doesn’t have the ability to make her husband admirable and increase his well-being. It’s like a rich man who is used to eating shark’s fin and sea cucumber every day and wants to change his taste. The starting point of a change of heart. Most of the beautiful people are delicate and self-willed. They know how to be extravagant and can’t stand hard work. Don’t tell her to take care of her husband’s food and daily life. I always think that my husband will always treat each other with the same politeness and tenderness as those when we were unmarried and those who were just married, and we have to add more to our thoughts. But we don't want us to entertain a distinguished guest to the fullest to please him, let alone the lover in our hearts. Beloved, and have the wish to win, naturally do everything possible to please, and beg for the mission is not unsatisfactory, even more obedient than filial sons and virtuous grandchildren. But this kind of situation can be temporary, but not long-term, like a poor person asking a distinguished guest for help and promotion , I don’t hesitate to sell a treat, in order to get things done, it’s very extravagant to ask for a reward, and I can only survive the day when something is announced, but the other party is insatiable in asking for money, coercing favors and punishing them, and I have to accept the treats every day, please think Who will have time? This is still an outsider, at most resentment breeds hatred, and friendship is broken. Husband and wife get along all year round, except for divorce, they only have headaches all day long. "Furthermore, no matter how good a person's appearance is, everyone has some weaknesses on the inside. Before marriage, you only see your appearance, and you are astonished. When you get along with each other every day after marriage, both sides' weaknesses will be revealed. Naturally, there will be a lot of dissatisfaction. From the beginning, the love is still there, and I can forgive it. , Gradually tired of supplying, I feel that marrying the eldest wife only adds a lot of troubles except for someone to share the bed, and there is no benefit. Thinking of being flattered and served by others outside, what he listens to is all nice and obedient, but the flattery is too much in return, because he thinks that his love is the best, but he can't win the favor, he is easily blamed, and he doesn't forgive him. Compare how to avoid accidents? If there is a man and a woman who is powerful and capable, although he is not as loving as before, he can still maintain it in an environment of sometimes happy and sometimes hated. The way is to become a resentful spouse, and the gap is not over. "You see, my husband and wife love each other. I don't tell lies. In fact, the relationship between my husband and wife is good. The word "love" can't be counted. If you ask her in front of your wife, is there really love? I really love her. I love her very much, and I can’t leave for a day. My diet and daily life are all due to her. Only in this way can I never have any suspicions. The relationship can only deepen. What’s the reason? First, I love her for being beautiful. , and her marriage was forced at the beginning, and it was not what she wanted. Because she didn't love me, I tried my best to please her. But I can do my best to be a wife. My temperament is so gentle that people can't bear to say harsh words to her. Ninety-nine percent of what I do is reasonable and reasonable. Even if you don't like it, you can't say anything. What's more, there is absolutely nothing that makes you unhappy, it is rare in a hundred years, there is a one and a half out of 100 that makes you think a little bit, and if you think about her as a person, not only do you not blame her, but you agree with her. She is so capable in housekeeping , extravagance and frugality are appropriate and appropriate. "I am a soldier. Before I married her, I only cared about the easy money. I was a big official. I spent my life drinking and drinking, whoring and gambling. Others thought I was very good, but I didn't feel any special benefits in life. Since her It was only when I entered the door that I really enjoyed the happiness of life and family. In a few days, I have everything organized. From getting along with each other and eating and living, there is nothing that is not comfortable. Let’s take food as an example. I used to only know about eating out. Asking the cook to prepare the dishes, but I often feel bored and tasteless. After her adjustment, the cook’s bills are not as much as before, and I feel fresh and delicious every day. Each has its own uniqueness and unusualness. I am not exaggerating. All of you here are richer than me, and you are often uninvited guests. May I ask which visit you did not go away? Let’s say that tonight’s midnight snack, make preparations first, But this table of dishes is all dispatched by my wife. You have not seen how she is busy with the operation. There are a lot of them, and even these dozen kinds of wine can be bought with money? Such a multi-talented and multi-talented wife, I’m ashamed to dislike her even if she’s as ugly as no salt. The last time I went to Shanghai, it’s only been ten days since I left. Because she was sick, I didn’t go with her. They are inseparable. It’s not that I haven’t met a good-looking person when I’m socializing outside. If I don’t say anything else, I just compare the smell and conversation, and then I go to Tianyuan. I feel that no one is better than her. How can I change my mind? "I'm not a good person, but I understand things a little bit. Although men are temperamental and mostly unlucky, it is not difficult to maintain a relationship between husband and wife, because most of my friends and colleagues are married after middle age, and men and women are married in the first marriage.时本是中意，要父母强行主婚本不如意者两样，相貌好恶一层已无问题。初结合总是好的，如有不合，俱是自己不善处所致。想丈夫收心和美，第一要义是要丈夫处处觉到外间多好也没家生活舒服如意，自然生出吸力，哪怕恩爱不如以前，感情待遇总是好的。我们有一谈得来的对劲朋友，尚有不舍分别，多日不见便生思念，何况是以前恩爱尚同服共枕甘苦相共的夫妻？最忌是唠叨絮聒使丈夫厌烦。把家中视若苦境，当然不嫖便讨小了。 “以上俱为我辈中人而言，如是贫寒夫妻那更糟了，如是穷人也更糟了。起初孽缘相引，男女双方情投意合，仿佛爱情神圣伟大，只有爱情一切都不成问题，休说穷苦，连死活都不在话下。少年人勇往直前又没有个算计，百计千方，东借西求，以求其成。却不想自己一人生活尚且为难，如何再增加上一重负担？结婚以后，在男的一方收入还是那么多，无端添出好大一笔费用，再加上由交结女的，以及结婚时所用的一切亏空，于是寅支卯粮，东填西补，老鼠钻牛角，越往前路越厌，日益拮据，债台高筑，借贷无门，越过越难。一面为衣食优急，一面见心上人随着自己受穷受苦，理想中的快乐之家便作了一面干斤重枷架在颈上。以前受穷，单身汉子还能出去创业，及被这面重枷一架上，出门便有后顾之忧，放心不下，日受生活重压之余，由不得把世事看得更难，少年人的勇气无形中逐渐打消，除非真狠而情薄的人，多半壮志消沉，无力发展，也想不到发展上去，于是被这面枷判了长期徒刑，三年五载，十年二十年，以至老死都不一定。非真有运气，有好照应，便决难过安逸日子。长年如此，每日忧急还来不及，有什心肠再顾情爱？ “女的一方平日看惯人家爱侣对对成双，心想自己出嫁也必如是，怎么也比娘家享福自由。就说丈夫家寒，不会过得省些？何况人品那好，年纪又轻，怎见得将来没有发达之日？对我又如是情深爱重，照着未嫁时心情，便丈夫异日穷到讨饭，只要双宿双飞，精神上得到快乐，便随他提篮托钵也所甘心。却没想到理想只是理想，事实还是事实，对方本穷，为他还增了负担，日子怎过得好？方今之世无钱不行，物质享受与精神快乐相辅而行，衣食艰难，势必诚中形外，日常如坐愁城，心境先已愁苦，怎会得到快乐？先还互相慰藉，日盼好运之临，及觉穷心照命，佳运无期，日子越过越苦，依然故我，百不如人，性情好的只在背后自怨命苦，不向丈夫发气，虽穷夫妻同情无伤，或许还能挨到出头之日。再要脾气不好，不知体谅丈夫苦楚，终日比东羡西，交滴絮聒。男的本想受穷是为娶妻而起，只说不出来的苦，这一来益发痛苦加重，不是男的连急带气被女的磨死，便是感情破裂，好容易挨到环境稍好，丈夫早已成仇，休想和好，再不便是中道乖离，各自东西，能有好结局的极少。 “这类结合十九都是误染欧风的男女学生，结合之初如能开诚布公，各说实话，也还好些，最怕是双方尽情掩饰自己的短处，男的明明财力不够，惟恐女的看轻，想尽方法负债供给，以装门面，殊不知世上最近者夫妻，没有能隐之事，才一结婚便看出破绽，男的必还不肯认账，依然尽情掩饰，在自己罗掘俱穷，依然满足不了女的欲望，于是越闹越糟，终至一溃不可收拾。刘太太常说嫁与阔人还不如嫁一穷人，一夫一妻能够知甘共苦，相亲相爱，乃是理想的话。实则寻常人家子女都做不到，何况你们这些本是富贵人家出身享受已惯的人，如何能行？” 小何太太道：“照此说来，穷人就该一辈子不结婚了？”承德道：“那不能一律而论。真是下层社会，或是乡村的穷人倒也行。你们能嫁给拉洋车、挑粪种田的么？我是指那自身并无财力，不知求学上进，为国家社会尽人民天职，为自身创业谋求幸福，放着书不读，终日追求配偶的浮荡青年男女，以及不知利害轻重的中层社会中愚人而言。依我之见，不把业创好，或是至少有了安家的能力，绝对不可结婚。如真动于情爱，非此不可，上来首先要说实话，须知对方真对我有深情，决能分甘共苦，不以贫为意，固然耐贫之言出自女方，多半一时惟情冲动，不能作准，但是话说在先，对方至少无话可说。过门之初便知日子难过，而丈夫却是个有希望、有真情的青年，一方免却多少欲望，一方知道这等家况必须夫妻合力共同努力谋求未来幸福，虽见同辈姊妹或是他人豪华富贵，全不动念，彼此相怜、相敬、相爱，也免去室人交议许多苦恼，并还因以激励、增加自己前进的勇气。假如说了真情，要被双方看不起，婚姻无望，请想连实话都不能说，将来还能常相厮守么？岂非自寻苦闷？ “女人逗人喜爱，容貌固是一层，但那不能持久，只上来初遇好看，如若浮嚣骄纵，任性愚情，长此相对，不特索然无趣，反生卑劣之感。所以容貌好丑只是门面，第一要气味娴和，举止安详，慧心巧思，再能持家，看顾丈夫，男人性情多不好也被感化了。不过方今之世，这类好女子能有几个呢？与其娶将过门，彼此同受活罪，断送半生一世，无宁等到自己财力充足再娶，索性打点着互相交易的心理，你嫁我是为穿衣吃饭生活享受，我娶你为的是持家嗣续以及人情之常，只要大礼不差就不错，遇上真好的是福气，遇上不识大礼的庸常女子也能彼此相安，省得为了老婆丧气堕志，长年受罪，不是好么？你看往往女的长得极美，而男的终日皱着眉头，女的相貌极平常，而男的在家喜气洋洋，夫妻相对也不显怎亲热，却是温言细语，互相关切，那是什么原故？这还是中等以上人家你能见到的，中人以下你们见不到的怪事更多着呢。固然男子性情无定，也有美恶易好出乎情理之外的，但是极少。总而言之，夫妻相处，第一要义是要知道体谅，女的尤贵以柔克刚，感情一破，多么美貌也无用处，终日絮叨苛责，便是天上神仙男人也不敢亲近。”还待往下说时，筠清笑道：“看你这一套长篇大论，点心都凉了，再挨些时候那牌还打不打？”承德笑道：“只顾说话，还忘了打牌呢。我吃了不少酒菜，再吃半碗稀饭就够了。元荪老弟和各位太太再请一点吧。”
