Chapter 29 Chapter nine

There was a wind that night, and the wind was so fierce that it made the front and rear window lattices rattle.Like countless hands beating on the window.From time to time, a chilly wind would come in through the cracks of the window, in gusts of wind, then light winds, shaking the curtains and hanging electric lights.Later, the wind weakened, and it rained again. The sound of rustling and rain continued, and the sound of hitting the window panes was even louder. Listening to the sound of wind and rain, Nan Rulin couldn't fall asleep lying on the copper frame bed, so she lifted the red satin quilt under her body, got out of bed and turned on the light.The lamp was swaying in the wind, and when it was turned on, the light in the room also swayed, and everything seemed unreal, like a dream.Nan Rulin was in that dream, with her hands behind her head, looking at the lake-colored tent, her eyes wide open, thinking about something.He misses Yuan Jizhi, himself, and the young master even more, and always compares Yuan Jizhi with the young master.

During the day, when he saw the young master, he was stunned. The young master was so handsome, he was not at all like his mother-in-law, the second wife, or his father, who was the warlord.The clothes are also ordinary, like a learned teacher.If I hadn't met at home, I couldn't believe that he would be the young master of a wealthy family.That foreign student, Liu Yuwei, was really lucky, and she didn't know what tricks she had to use to get the young master into her hands.The young master said it was free love, but he didn't know how free he could be?Would it be nice for women to go free for men too?

The young master was really kind to Liu Yuwei. He untied Liu Yuwei's scarf in front of the whole family, and even washed Liu Yuwei's trousers behind his back.A woman is willing to do everything for a man she really likes, and a man will definitely do everything for a woman he really loves.Li Weitt wrote in "The Pain of the Third Miss Bai", that the actor Wang Qiaozhi washed the riding belt for the sick Miss Bai. This makes me feel that my life is miserable, not to mention marrying an old man to be the tenth concubine, and finally finding a good man is not honest, and I keep borrowing her money, I am afraid it will still cheat her.Not suspicious, Nan Rulin had met Yuan Jizhi several times, and she had smelled women's perfume on Yuan Jizhi's body, so she suspected that Yuan Jizhi was not only good with her, but with many women.Yuan Jizhi refused to admit it, saying that he was an adjutant in Jingyuan, and he was surrounded by Hao Baochuan's gang of ladies and ladies, so he always smelled like a woman.

Nan Rulin didn't believe it, and felt that Yuan Jizhi's treatment of her might not be half as good as the young master's treatment of Liu Yuwei.Feeling angry in my heart, I murmured to myself: In what way is she inferior to Liu Yuwei?In terms of age and appearance, she is no worse than Liu Yuwei.Although she has never been to college, she has read a lot of books, and she has read more than a dozen books by Levitt alone.Liu Yuwei has new ideas, and so does she—she also wants to fall in love once or twice freely. Then I thought, she and Yuan Jizhi can be regarded as free love.She is brave, and Yuan Jizhi is also brave, so there is hope for this love.Even if Yuan Jizhi is really on good terms with some woman right now, she is not afraid, she has Yuan Jizhi firmly in her hands - just like Liu Yuwei has captured the young master, can Yuan Jizhi run away?She couldn't wait for Yuan Jizhi to come and knock on the window so anxiously, she had to drag Yuan Jizhi to elope with her...

Just thinking about it, she really heard someone knocking on the window, Nan Rulin still didn't believe it: Will Yuan Jizhi come again in this cold and rainy day?She must have misheard and mistook the sound of the rain for knocking on the window.Just as she was about to turn off the light and go to sleep, she clearly heard Yuan Jizhi calling her name outside the back window, so she hurried to the window and opened it. It was really Yuan Jizhi, dripping with water, like a water monster that just climbed up from the river. Nan Rulin immediately remembered the story of Wang Qiaozhi visiting Miss Bai in the rain in "The Pain of the Third Miss Bai", and she was moved, and forgot all the resentment that was still in her heart just now.He took off Yuan Jizhi's wet clothes first, then took a dry towel and wiped Yuan Jizhi's body, and said while wiping, "You are looking for death, it's raining so hard, and it's so cold, yet you still come here!"

Yuan Jizhi said: "You asked me to watch "The Pain of the Third Miss Bai", and I watched it. When I saw the scene where Wang Qiaozhi had a tryst in the rain, I came here..." Nan Rulin was even more moved, and asked softly, "How did you get in here?" Yuan Jizhi said: "It's the back wall you climbed, and the Seventh Young Master can't find it today." Nan Rulin said: "It's not that I can't find it! The Seventh Young Master doesn't care about you, a good friend who cuts off his head today, and the eldest brother of the Seventh Young Master is back!"

Yuan Ji grumbled, "I said so!" Turning off the light and going to bed, after a flurry, Nan Rulin talked about the young master again, exaggerating how good the young master was to his wife Liu Yuwei, and asked Yuan Jizhi if he wanted to treat her sincerely like the young master treated Liu Yuwei? Yuan Jizhi kissed Nan Rulin and said, "Of course, if I don't really treat you well, can I come in the rain?" Nan Rulin's heart was warm, but she said, "That's the Wang Qiaozhi I asked you to learn." Yuan Ji said straightly: "I can also learn from the young master of the Hao family."

Nan Rulin thought of elopement again, so she said, "Well, you can elope with me. You can go to Beijing or Nanjing as you like." Yuan Ji said straightly: "Ben is to run, but it's not the time yet." Nan Rulin trembled and asked, "Why can't you call in time?" Yuan Jizhi said: "Think about it, the situation in the north and south of the Yangtze River is still unclear, and they are all frozen. I don't know who will win and who will lose, the old Hao and the young Hao. Why should we be anxious? If the old Hao loses, he will be so angry. Or if you are beaten to death, should we still run? We will not run away, and I will marry you straight away!"

Nan Rulin didn't believe this, and said with a sneer, "Are you trying to lie to me again? Even if Lao Hao is really dead, will you marry me openly? I'm afraid there are still some women who won't agree!" Yuan Jizhi was in a hurry, "My little aunt, what are you talking about! Didn't I tell you? Besides you, I really have never had a good time with any woman, I dare to swear!" Nan Rulin said: "I don't want you to swear, as long as you elope with me. If this goes on, you will not grow up. It's not like you don't know about Xiujuan. Do you also want me to be shot by the old man?"

Yuan Jizhi became serious. After thinking for a long time, he finally sighed and said, "It's true. If you don't say anything, Old Man Hao won't let me down. We should think about the way forward." Nan Rulin said: "There is no other way out, the only way is to elope. If we run away, we will be able to behave freely like the young master and Liu Yuwei." Yuan Jizhi sighed again: "It's good to elope, but...you have to have money. If you don't have money, you will be free if you go out, but you will starve to death!" Nan Rulin became angry: "Why are you rich again? Can't we support ourselves? You have to learn from other young masters in this regard. Look at him, he has so much money in his family, but he doesn't want it. He is on the railway line in Hankou. to be an engineer."

Yuan Jizhi said: "It's good to be self-reliant, but you need to have some foundation at the beginning. You can't just run away empty-handed, right?" That's right, Nan Rulin said, "Well, I won't play poker from today onwards, and I'll save the monthly rules to prepare for our future." Yuan Jizhi waved his hand: "Forget it, forget it, how much can you save? Which dynasty do you have to save?" Nan Rulin thought of selling the jewelry that old man Hao gave her—thought of it but didn't dare to say it, fearing that Yuan Jizhi would compete to sell it and take away the money from the sale, so she asked, "What should you do?" Yuan Jizhi thought about it, turned over and lay down on Nan Rulin's chest, "Is there any real friendship between you and old man Hao?" Nan Rulin didn't know what Yuan Jizhi meant, so she didn't ask, and just twisted Yuan Jizhi: "What do you think?" Yuan Jizhi smiled: "What am I talking about? It's up to you to say. If you say that you still have some real friendship with Mr. Hao, then I won't talk about it. If you say no, I will talk about it." Nan Rulin said angrily: "Don't be a secret, just talk!" Yuan Jizhi caressed Nan Rulin's face and said, "Didn't old man Hao let you and Mrs. Ninth Ruifang take care of your social relations? Wherever you go, you will either take Ruifang or you, right? If you plan to sell it to Hao Baochuan and Liu Anjie, you can make some money, right?" Nan Rulin was stunned for a moment, pointed at Yuan Jizhi's nose and smiled, "Old Yuan, you really can think of it, but you actually thought of selling information! You must not be a spy sent by Hao Baochuan!" Yuan Jizhi was very serious: "I'm not joking, if you do it well, we will make a lot of money! Just think about it now, how much do you know about the things in front of you, is it enough to sell it first?" Nan Rulin immediately thought that General Hao would deal with Liu Anjie.The night before leaving, Old General Hao told her that Liu Anjie had finally been fooled and agreed to take his new Second Division to the south of the Yangtze River to rest. Pockets, two divisions must be dispatched to guard Liu Anjie's weapons on the only way Liu Anjie must pass. Nan Rulin told Yuan Ji about it. Yuan Ji said straightly: "I know something about this. Liu Anjie and Hao Baochuan discussed it. Liu Anjie wanted to hand over the defense area in Jiangbei to Hao Baochuan, so he agreed to go to Jiangnan to rest. I don't know that old man Hao is so vicious that he wants to attack him. .” Nan Rulin said: "Jiang is always old and spicy! Everyone says that old man Hao is going to lose, but I don't really believe it. The old man is very cunning, and he won't lose easily." Yuan Ji smiled and said: "Even if you won't lose in the past, I'm afraid you will lose in the future. If you are someone's tenth wife, you will sell him. Is there anyone else?" Nan Rulin also laughed, "It's good to lose, not only me, but the old man's wives also want him to lose! When the big tree is felled, the hozen will be free." This made Yuan Ji nod his head straight. Later, Yuan Jizhi kept in mind the urgency of the information and left early. After Yuan Jizhi left, Nan Rulin thought of the young master again, and made a new comparison between the young master and Yuan Jizhi.At the end of the comparison, it turned out that Yuan Jizhi was no worse than the young master, just as he was no worse than Liu Yuwei. He believed that the future self and Yuan Jizhi would be the young master and Liu Yuwei today, so how many people would be jealous... Outside the window, the rain was still falling, and the sound of rustling and rain was extremely pleasant.
