Chapter 6 The fifth round of color selection, Liu Chengshu's madness, ecstasy in the middle of the night

From that day on, they had a close relationship.When Yang Xingyuan and Wu Bibo were talking in his apartment, the two of them had already made a small thing with their ingredients.Lu Wuya is thinking here how to solve it.Knowing that the new couple now have a child after two or three months of marriage, it's not a big deal, so they might as well get married right away.But there is another level, one is a married man and the other is a married woman. How can this marriage be accomplished?When he was in trouble, his friends asked him, why didn't he blush?Fortunately, the two of them, Wu and Yang, had already heard about his matter, so they didn't bother to delve into it.In this apartment, people from all over the world talked for a while, and then went back separately.

When Yang Xingyuan arrived at home, the head class gave him a business card, saying that someone came to visit him. Yang Xingyuan looked at the business card and found that it was Chen Ruokang, the editor of Happiness News.Because he asked the long class: "Did he leave without saying anything?" The long class said: "He said he has something to talk to you about, and we will talk on the phone at nine o'clock tonight." Yang Xingyuan thought to himself: "He and I have a relationship." What is there to talk about? We are still friends, but we just hang out in the alley once or twice. People say that friends in the whoring world are the easiest to make friends with. From this point of view, it’s really good.” At night, Yang Xingyuan went to the newspaper office Here, he brought up this matter with He Jianchen again.He Jianchen smiled and said: "This man is an expert on prostitution. You have to be willing to visit and learn a lot from him." At this time, Shi Chengran was also translating the manuscript there, and when he heard them talking about prostitution, he couldn't help interrupting He said, "This man's prostitution is really good, and he also understands the principles of economics. When he entertains friends, he hangs out in the team. If he is alone, he will be relegated to a second-class tea room." The second class is called Liucheng, and it’s more economical to break willows without looking at the flowers.” He Jianchen said with a smile: “How do you know? It’s unreliable, you and him are also comrades, right?” Shi Chengran blushed and said: "If not." Yang Xingyuan said: "This matter is a bit shadowy, and I am very suspicious. One time when I got up early, I walked by Guanyin Temple, and I met you and Chen Ruokuang who were reckless and walked through Zhumao Hutong. Come out, it can't be said that nothing happened, can it?" At this point, that Mr. Chen Ruokang broke in from the outside.Said: "Okay, you talk about my right and wrong behind my back." Yang Xingyuan said: "I'm not scolding you." He said what he said just now.Chen Ruokuang said with a grin: "There are things. We are poorer, so we have no choice but to think about it." Yang Xingyuan said to Shi Chengran: "I have confessed to the painting, so why do you rely on it? I don't have the flavor in it yet. I've tasted it, you take me to pay my respects today, okay?" He Jianchen frowned and said, "It's hard to explain, I don't think you want to go." Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "The worse it is, the more I want to see it Zuoxing can give us some material to describe." Chen Ruokuang laughed and said: "There is nothing good in it. Jian Chen can't help but wipe it out. But the decoration in the room is not good enough, but this is not as good as ours. It doesn’t matter what your purpose is!” Yang Xingyuan said with a smile: “Since that’s the case, it’s fine, we can go visit your dear acquaintance after we finish the matter. But first floor, I still don’t understand the rules here, you Give me advice at any time, lest I make a fool of myself." Chen Ruokang said: "It's obvious that you are making fun of us, how can there be a Huaguo veteran who would go somersaulting in Liucheng?" Yang Xingyuan said with a smile : "Please wait for a while, we will leave." As he said, he really lowered his head and hurriedly published the manuscript.At eleven o'clock, the manuscripts were almost ready. Across the table, Yang Xingyuan cupped his hands with He Jianchen and said, "Too hard to work." Then he smiled at Shi and Chen, "Please fulfill the contract." Chen Ruokuang said with a smile: "Really Are you going?" Shi Chengran said: "I am going, but there is one thing, I ask you not to go in a chartered car. This driver likes to report the master's actions to others. When we visit second-class kilns, we have to let them stay in the concierge. We've been talking for a few days."

Yang Xingyuan said: "Anyway, there are not many roads, so you can walk." After finishing speaking, the three of them walked out of the newspaper office and came to the alley. As soon as we arrived at the guards, we saw a group of three and a group of five, but the crowd was very crowded.Yang Xingyuan said: "Which house did you go to? It's very cold to meet acquaintances in this place." Chen and Shi discussed with each other for a while, and agreed to go to Zhilanyuan in Xiaozhumao Hutong first.Yang Xingyuan needs to learn more.As soon as I entered the door, just like in the team, there were a few rough people sitting at the door, and when a visitor came in, they also yelled loudly.Walking into the courtyard, there were a few small business owners who put their baskets on the ground and yelled, "Chewing gum, milk candy, duck gizzard liver." With a big trumpet, he yelled: "Singing Chatterbox." At the door of the room around the corner, there was a teenage child, beating bamboo slices in his hands, clapping, and singing Bangzi tune. , "Over there, here we come again, Wang Shibao Chuan", dare to beg for money from the client.This kind of sound became a commotion.Facing the yard, at the door of a house, there stood an old mother combing her ingot hair, holding up the white cloth door curtain with one hand, and shouting, "Come and see you all!" The voice was loud and shrill, very piercing. .At this time, the girls in the courtyard walked to the door of the room one by one, like soldiers standing at attention, they stood up and left.The old lady came to report one by one, saying: "Row three, rank five, rank seven." Yang Xingyuan thought: "I often see what ranks are listed in flower newspapers, so they are their famous names." Watching the fun here, a girl came by and shouted with a smile: "Old Chen." Without saying a word, she walked up to Chen Ruokang, snatched the hat off her head, held it in her hand, and chose repeatedly. Call to find a house.While holding Shi Chengran's hand again, he said, "Don't go."

Shi Chengran smiled and said, "Don't go!" The girl stretched out her hand again, took Yang Xingyuan's clothes and said, "My friend, I'm sorry, please take care of me." After hearing this, Yang Xingyuan couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Know how to say yes.I had to snort a bit in my nose.At this time, Chen Ruokang spoke up and said: "There is no room, let's come back later." The girl said: "No! You don't come here when you are old, and you leave when you come. There is no such reason! Please stand in the yard for a while It doesn't matter, we are vacating a house." After finishing speaking, he shouted again: "You find a house for me." With great difficulty, a group of prostitutes left a room at this time.The girl talked and pulled, and pulled them in.

Yang Xingyuan saw that there was a wooden bed on the top of the room, which already took up more than half of the room.On the right is a combing table with a kerosene lamp on it, on the left is a square table with a teapot, a tea tray, seven or eight teacups, and beside the table are five chairs in total.There are a few pictures on the wall, but they are cigarette companies, flour companies, printed calendars, and so on.He looked at it once, thinking that this place of hidden beauty was too unbearable, so he sat on a chair with him.Chen and Shi were even more unceremonious, sitting on the bed with their feet up.The girl was beside Shi Chengran, and she sat on his lap with a crooked body, and he hugged the girl casually, wrapping his arms around the girl's waist.The girl put her mouth close to Shi Chengran's ear, and chirped a few words.Shi Chengran nodded and smiled and said, "Okay! Okay! I will definitely do it for you." Yang Xingyuan, although in the past few months, has not been without nostalgia, such behavior is really rare for him, so he can't help but smile at Shi Chengran laugh.Shi Chengran pushed the girl and said, "My friend, I'm already jealous for Lao Chen, you still don't want to go."

The girl stood up, walked to Yang Xingyuan's side, and asked Yang Xingyuan's name.Yang Xingyuan agreed to "surname Yang", and looked closely at her face. Although she had applied a lot of powder, her cheeks were thin and haggard.I had no choice but to hold her hand and say: "What's your name?" The girl said: "My name is Lin Xiaoxiang." Yang Xingyuan said: "How old are you?" Let go.Shi Chengran said: "Don't ask her age. Fourteen or fifteen, she said seventeen. Eighteen, nineteen or even twenty, she said seventeen. It's always seventeen." Yang Xingyuan said: "It's natural for the older ones to say they're younger. What's the reason for the younger ones to say they're older?" Shi Chengran said, "Because of the regulations set by the police department, prostitutes are not allowed to prostitute under the age of sixteen. These turtles Bustards can't wait for their prostitutes to act early so that they can hang out for a few more years. How can they keep this condition. As long as a girl is about the same physical development and can say a few words to customers, even if she is fourteen years old, she will pretend to be seventeen , go to the police station to sign up and donate." Yang Xingyuan said: "Could it be that the police station doesn't investigate for a while no matter how old they report their age?" Shi Chengran said: "Why don't they investigate! They donated to the prostitutes. Sometimes, I have to hand over a photo. But it’s always more accurate and less refutable.” As he spoke, he pointed to the wall and said, “Look, isn’t this an announcement from the police department? Small-class prostitutes are not allowed to take more than 100 in the locker, second-class tea room prostitutes are not allowed to take more than 50 in the locker, and lower class prostitutes are not allowed to take more than 20 in the locker. In fact, the reality is much worse. To get to know Xiaohong from Wufu's family, she has taken more than two thousand from the locker."

Shi Chengran was happy talking, and was about to look down to say something, when Lin Xiaoxiang lifted the curtain and came in, and said to Chen Ruuokuang: "I'm sorry, there are guests in this room, please go to another room and sit down." Lead the three of them into a room.When Yang Xingyuan took a look, it was better to clean up the room than the one in the front.Sitting at the table was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old prostitute, who was actually pretty. She was sitting there wiping the dominoes by herself. When she saw them coming in, she pushed the cards away and planned to leave.Chen Ruokang said: "Oh! When we came in, we kicked out the owner of the house. This matter is not serious. Come on! Let's go and stand in the yard." The prostitute also laughed, so she had to sit down, still low. Head to wipe the dominoes.Yang Xingyuan felt that this person was very gentle and amiable, and was about to borrow a few words to talk to her, only to hear a shout from outside: "Miss Seven, the guest is leaving." Lin Xiaoxiang said to Chen Ruokang: "The guest is leaving, Please come and sit in my room." She went out to see off the group of guests, and another old woman brought them into Lin Xiaoxiang's room.Yang Xingyuan asked Shi Chengran, "Why don't you bother to drop it again and again like this?" Shi Chengran said, "How do you know that the rules of the teahouse are different from the small class. If guests don't enter their room, they don't give money for the plate. So it's more popular." A prostitute, every night, her guests will occupy other people's rooms, and then she will let her into her own room. At this time, Lin Xiaoxiang saw the guests in, and then there was a man, the so-called "turtle claw", holding two round foreign iron plates in his hands, which were also in the shape of a plate, with a layer of melon seeds spread flat on the inside. At the table, turned and left.Lin Xiaoxiang poured the melon seeds into a glass dish, and then gave the dish to Yang Xingyuan first, Yang Xingyuan grabbed a few grains, and she passed them to Shi Chengran, and finally sent them to Chen Ruokang.The aunt in this room also poured three cups of tea and placed them in front of them.When Yang Xingyuan saw the tea, it was as yellow as horse urine, so he dared not drink it.Take a look at the two of Chen Shi, Zao and Lin Xiaoxiang wrestled together on the bed.Yang Xingyuan chatted up alone and looked at the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, there were also written couplets and hanging screens, but there was no month card.There is also a bronze plaque hanging on the wall, which says "Lin Xiaoxiang"

three words.He thought: "The names of the prostitutes in the small class are all hung on the door. The sign of the tea room is hung in the room. Is there any restriction?" Yin asked Shi Chengran this question.Shi Chengran said: "There is no limit! However, there is a lot of vanity to show the girls.All the girls in the second class are mostly downgraded from the small class. If there is no deficit, they can keep a little wooden guy, otherwise, only this bronze medal is left.Because they wanted to show that they had been in the small class, they even hung the bronze medal in the room to show their face. "While talking, I asked Lin Xiaoxiang:" Is what I said right? "Lin Xiaoxiang smiled and said: "Don't talk nonsense. "Yang Xingyuan listened to Shi Chengran's words and saw that there was a wardrobe and a sofa in this room besides the tables and chairs. Lin Xiaoxiang was expected to be downgraded. But the hairdressing table was also placed in the same way as in other rooms. With a kerosene lamp, it is incomprehensible.

Because he asked Shi Chengran, he said: "In every room, there are electric lights, and everyone lights a kerosene lamp. What's the meaning of this?" Shi Chengran said, "It's funny to say, the electric lights in this tea room It's only midnight. After twelve o'clock, Mao turned off the main electric switch and switched to kerosene lamps." The two of them were here, talking about the rules of their teahouse. Lin Xiaoxiang and Chen Ruokang were also negotiating there, and they were having an inextricable quarrel when someone outside shouted "Seven Girls". Find a room to sit, okay?" Chen Ruokang said: "No need! We still have to go to several places." Lin Xiaoxiang said: "Then, come back." Chen Ruokang ignored her and took out a few cards The copper tickets were folded and thrown into the glass dish.Lin Xiaoxiang said: "Don't you agree to what I just said to you?" Chen Ruokang smiled and said: "You are very busy today, let's talk about it another day." Lin Xiaoxiang curled her lips and said: "Oh, I understand Yes. There are still two groups of guests, so you have to forgive me for not entering the room." Chen Ruokang walked out of the room before she could finish speaking.Lin Xiaoxiang took his hand and said: "Come tomorrow!" Chen Ruokuang agreed with the word "huh" in his nose, and walked out with Yang Shi.Yang Xingyuan said with a smile: "Forget it, I've already gained experience, you two go shopping by yourself, I won't accompany you." Shi Chengran said with a smile: "This is the southern style. There is also the northern style. You don't Have you seen it before, don’t you want to go?” Yang Xingyuan shook his head and said, “No! No!” Then he hired a car and went back to the guild hall. Chen Ruokang waited for him to get into the car, and called out: “Mr. Yang, Mr. Yang .” Yang Xingyuan stopped the car and asked, “What’s the matter?”Chen Ruokuang thought for a while, and said with a smile, "I'll have an interview tomorrow morning, let's talk about it later." Seeing him, Yang Xingyuan didn't say anything, didn't ask any more questions, and left by car.

On the next day, Chen Ruokang came early in the morning.Yang Xingyuan knew that he was here to borrow money, so she deliberately pretended not to know, to see what he would say.Chen Ruokang said: "Mr. Yang, I'm sorry for what happened yesterday, I'll ask you next day." Yang Xingyuan said: "I'm very busy these days, and I don't have time to go to the alley. Those of us who eat pens, How can I go to these money furnace places often?" Chen Ruokang said: "You are really right. To tell you the truth, I have made a loss because of this. The colleagues in my department, go shopping When I got up, I didn't know what to do. The plate money was always five or ten yuan bills. I followed them to make a fuss, how could I not do the same? The night before yesterday, I went to join a counselor with me, but I was unlucky. One loss cost more than seventy yuan, and these two days have been a mess. Yesterday’s trip was a joke, and I really had to.” At this point, he showed a hesitant look, and said with a smile: “I still do it. It happened a wicked thing. The other night, I met a few errands in the ministry. I insisted on dragging me to the second class. It just so happened that I met them playing drums, and I played a game of cards on credit. I made an appointment to give money to them today." Yang Xingyuan said with a smile, "What do you mean by beating drums?" Chen Ruokang said, "It's the so-called opening of the market in the northern troupe, but it's just an excuse to extort money from the customers. Because they want to call the general singing on this day. Dagu Shushu sings Dagu in the kiln, which means inviting guests to listen, so it is simply called playing drums." Yang Xingyuan laughed and said: "This term is really a bit vulgar, but you just said that the night before yesterday I joined you with your noble counselor, what? Did you go to the second class again?" Chen Ruokuang said with a blushing face: "It was the night before yesterday, and I was in trouble because of this. But the number is too small, not very close friends, and it is not easy to speak, so I asked Brother Shi Cheng to turn it over to your brother, and I want to accommodate the amount within ten yuan." Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "I can still help with this matter, but it seems that your Excellency is not so difficult." Chen Ruokang said: "To tell you the truth, although the newspaper gave me a salary of one hundred yuan a month, in fact, the manager Wang Tianbai is a well-known bachelor, so he paid lip service to him. The salary of the ministry was exhausted last month. This month, there is no news yet. I am maintaining the status quo now, all relying on a sum of money from special novels in Shanghai, with a monthly income of more than 100 yuan, which will be remitted soon. At that time, I will definitely serve you." Yang Xingyuan said: "People like us are not among the talented people in the foreign market, and it is not easy to join the party that sells novels. You can get more than one hundred yuan a month, so it is certainly worth it Four yuan and one thousand characters, how did you get this qualification?" Chen Ruokuang replied vaguely: "What is this! I have a friend who only wrote twelve chapters of a novel and got five hundred dollars. Isn't one yuan worth more than four yuan and one thousand characters?" Yang Xingyuan said: "I seem to have heard such a legend, is it true?

Which bookstore is this from? "Chen Ruokuang laughed and said: "How can there be a bookstore with such a large capital in China!This is from a certain department.It turned out that the counselor had three sons, all of whom had sex with his concubine. The eldest son was forced to run away, and the second son married a wife. The aunt occupied him and could not enter the new house, causing many jokes about marital problems.My friend, I don't know where, inquired about the details, and casually talked with his manager.His manager said: "This kind of official history can really be a waste of time for him, and he can be scolded. Your writing is very playful, and you can write a novel and publish it in our newspaper." My friend, I was ordered to do it naturally, because I first drafted 12 chapters, I asked his manager to think about it for a while. His manager said, "Very well, I can publish the chapters today." It doesn't matter, But the living turtle was very anxious. He thought that the news agency issued a press release last time, which was enough to read. If he wanted to write a novel, this small prospect might not be reliable. He had to ask someone to tell me After discussing with my friend's manager, he was willing to pay a price to buy his copyright. The price was negotiated from 3,000 yuan to 500 yuan, and the novel disappeared without a trace. This is not the 12 chapters that sold for 500 yuan. Yuan?" Yang Xingyuan laughed and said, "It doesn't matter if you tell me what you said. If you tell others, if you simply report news from the press in the newspaper, there will be a lot of right and wrong." I'll just tell you if you're a nosy person." As he spoke, he complimented Yang Xingyuan a lot.Yang Xingyuan waited until he had had enough compliments, then took out a five-yuan bill and handed it to him, saying, "I've been famine these two days too, sorry, I only have this amount, so you can take it with you." Chen Ruokang took the bill and said: "Yes! I'm very forgiving." After a few words, he left. It turned out that he had stayed too much in the second-class kiln, and his body had contracted many diseases. At this time, he was suffering from gonorrhea.For the first two days, he didn't know that every night, he still went to the second-class tea room to mess around. Later, he felt that it was inconvenient and painful to sit for a long time. It's out of shape.That fishy smell, touching the nose, can't help but make people want to gag.He was startled, it was no small matter, he thought he often heard people talk about gonorrhea, is this the thing?How is this good?This is the first time I have ever encountered a problem in my life, and I am embarrassed to ask people how to treat it. I seem to remember the unimportant place in the newspaper. In the advertisement for selling medicines, there are Wulin Baizhuo pills and the like. I have never paid attention to it. Now Why not check it out.Thinking about it, I flipped through several newspapers I was reading.After this investigation, I gained a lot of insights, and then I realized that this symptom has many names and many relationships.However, the advertisements for selling medicines all said that his medicine is good, either it will be cured within a week, or it will be cured if it does not work, or it will be cured once it is used. Which one is better to buy?After picking and picking, I picked the pill with the cheapest price and the most effective test, and bought a bottle.Unexpectedly, this kind of medicine, even though the advertisement in the newspaper said it was effective, took it, but it might not be any better.He was ashamed to ask people, and he didn't want to go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment, so he continued to look for Danfang in the advertisement column of the newspaper.Even on the corners of the alleys, where urination is prohibited, the advertisements for the specialty of flowers and willows are posted, and they take a peek at it.So I changed the same pill today, and the same prescription tomorrow, and made a fuss for the whole week.After all, he inquired about a kind of western medicine called "Three Generations of Beauty", and they all said it was very effective, so he bought a bottle and tried it, and felt that his problems improved after taking it.But this kind of thing is very expensive, a bottle can only be used for one day and night, but the price is two yuan and fifty cents.For the sake of medical treatment, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and buy it. In less than ten days, he had already spent a lot of money.He asked Yang Xingyuan to borrow money for the treatment of gonorrhea.Last night, I tried my best to perfunctory Yang Xingyuan, just wanting to borrow some more money to get a good diagnosis. Unexpectedly, his gonorrhea was cured, but other diseases reappeared. From that day on, he was very tired, and his limbs often felt hot and cold.I thought it was a minor illness and it was nothing to worry about, so I ignored it.In addition to Wang Tianbai, there is another editor in his newspaper, and this person is Huang Bieshan, a fellow of Yang Xingyuan.He saw that Chen Ruokang was tired day by day, so he said: "Ruokuang, I see that you don't have any blood on your face, although you can support on the surface, but your inner disease is very serious, I advise you to find a doctor to have a look. If you don't believe it, you don't look like a human anymore when you look in the mirror." After hearing this, Chen Ruokuang took a real look in the mirror, and sure enough, his eyes sunken a lot, his face turned pale and blue, like a wax figure, I was taken aback.He thought to himself: "I just have a little cold. How can I be so sick? If I don't get treatment, I'm afraid I'm going to become seriously ill." He made up his mind, so he went to a fellow villager, Dr. Chen, for a consultation.This person knows a lot of rich people, and he is a doctor exempted from the exam who is guaranteed by more than a dozen fellow councilors and the police department.Although the method is not very clever, the outpatient fee is two yuan, and the minimum outpatient fee is five yuan.The rich man in Beijing has the strangest temper, he loves the expensive and not the cheap, so his business is actually very good.This day Chen Ruokang went to see a doctor at his place, because the wealthy people from the same village trusted him and thought that there would be no mistakes, so he didn't think about it and kept coming.When he arrived at the doctor's house, he paid two yuan for registration as usual, and the concierge ushered him into a consulting room.In this room, there are also some calligraphy, painting and writing games, but more than half of them are paid by officials from the same village.A man in his thirties was sitting at a horizontal table, reading Qunqiang newspaper.See him come in, very politely, ask him to sit down.Chen Ruokang saw that he didn't look like a doctor or a servant, but he couldn't see why.The man waited for Chen Ruokang to sit down, asked his name, place of residence and address, took out a medical form, filled it out with a pen, and then asked the doctor to come out.It was only then that Chen Ruokang knew that he was a doctor's assistant, and he thought to himself that the style of the big masters was different.After a while the doctor came in from the outside. He was in his fifties, with a slight beard on his mouth, and wearing an old Luo gown.He gave Chen Ruokang a slight nod, asked him to sit down at a horizontal table, sat down opposite him, looked at the list first, and then asked, "What's wrong with Mr. Chen?" Chen Ruokuang Kuang said: "My body is sometimes cold and sometimes hot, my limbs are weak, I feel very tired, my appetite is bad, and I don't want to eat anything." The doctor Chen nodded, and the person who opened the list took a small The cloth pillow was placed on the table, and Chen Ruokuang knew it was for pulse, so he put his hand on it.Doctor Chen stretched out a hand to hold his pulse.His nails were about an inch long, he just tilted his head, focused on counting his pulse, and pressed his pulse vigorously with his hands, the nails plunged into Chen Ruokuang's flesh, poking painfully.After a while, Dr. Chen finished pressing the pulses of both hands, and said to Chen Ruokang: "It's okay, it's just a little cold, just take one or two doses of medicine and you'll be fine." Cartridge, picked up a pen, wrote a few sentences about the pulse condition and the cause of the disease on the diagnosis sheet, and then went crazy and prescribed more than a dozen medicines.What Chen Ruokuang recognized was Nepeta 10 cents, Fangfeng 15 cents, Perilla 10 cents, Magnolia 10 cents, Bupleurum 15 cents, Jiangzhi Shengfuzi 10 cents, dried ginger 10 cents, and other things. Some he doesn't recognize.After Dr. Chen finished prescribing the prescription, he took out another ivory stamp from the drawer, and stamped a bright red seal on the list.Then hand it to Chen Ruokang, and said: "Take two doses first, and don't use it when it gets better." Chen Ruokang answered "yes" a few times, left Dr. Chen's house, and returned to the Xingfu Newspaper. Unexpectedly, when I came here, I could still walk a few steps. When I went back, I felt very sad, and my body couldn't support it. I wished I could lie down on the street right away.He didn't ask how much the car cost, so he hired a car and came back.When he got home, he fell on the bed by himself, handed over the medicine list to a footman, and told him to cook the medicine as soon as he bought it, without telling the third person. Unexpectedly, although this medicine is not worth two taels, it is very effective after taking it. That night, Chen Ruokuang had a severe fever and vomited profusely, his bones were sore and unspeakable, and he couldn't help but hum.If he looks like this, he is already seriously ill, and he should take a good rest. The Happiness Newspaper is extremely noisy.The president Wang Tianbai is a great communicator, there are only two or three people who work in the newspaper office, and there are seven or eight people who live at leisure.Most of these people came to Beijing to find work. Living in the newspaper office, besides eating and drinking for nothing, they could also play the name of a journalist, which was much better than living in an apartment hall.Among the idlers, although they are free eaters, they are also very talented.There was a student from Germany who studied screws, one was an alternate Taoist in the former Qing Dynasty, and the other was an adjutant under Zhang Xun.As far as the above three people are concerned, it can be seen that there are all kinds of guests of happiness.These guests, all day long, have nothing to do.Apart from going out to find friends, when I arrived at the newspaper office, I just sat in one place, talking and researching the current situation.The room where they study the current situation is next door to Chen Ruokuang's room. Usually, Chen Ruokuang listens to them, but he just finds it boring. Now listening to them on the pillow, he only feels the noise and headache, but he has no right to Interfering with others is just cursing in his heart, wishing to throw these people out of the newspaper one by one. He had been ill for three days, and he had already taken two doses of the prescription prescribed by Dr. Chen. Not only did he not cure a little of his illness, but it actually added fuel to the flames, causing the illness to worsen.Chen Ruokuang thought that his illness was just a mild cold, and he also knew that most of Dr. Chen's prescriptions were for dispersal.On the fourth day, Chen Ruokang fell into a drowsy sleep. Sometimes when he woke up, he felt sore all over his body and could not move his thighs at all.Except for Huang Bieshan who came to the newspaper office at night to condolence him, no one paid attention to him.As for President Wang Tianbai, because he owed the printing fee to the paper shop, he was trying to do things outside, and he didn't have time to ask about his illness.Chen Ruokuang's income was originally limited. He told people that there were hundreds and dozens, and that was not real.When he was ill, the ministry had been in arrears of salary for several months, and the newspaper office was running into poverty, so he couldn't make any money. Not only did no one heal him, even if someone did heal him, the medical expenses were nothing.After the fourth day of Chen Ruokang's illness, he didn't take any medicine, and his illness didn't seem to get worse, but he was drowsy and wanted to sleep. Even if one or two people came to see him, they thought his illness was getting better, so they didn't pay much attention to it.Speaking of it quickly, a week passed. That night, Huang Bieshan finished his work and went to his room to see him. He was covered with a quilt, sleeping with his head tilted.Under the electric light, he saw red scars growing behind his ears, so he came up to take a closer look.At this moment, Chen Ruokuang knew that someone was coming, so he lifted the quilt and turned over.When he lifted the quilt, a gust of hot air rushed out, and Huangbie Mountain smelled a fishy and foul smell, and he backed up a few steps without feeling nauseated, making him want to vomit.Huang Bieshan regained his composure, walked to Chen Ruokang's bed, and saw red scars on his forehead and under his neck at a glance.Unknowingly, he lost his voice and said: "Oh! Ruokang, what kind of disease are you?" Chen Ruokang said weakly: "I just feel sad in my heart, and I can't tell what the symptoms are." Huang Bieshan said: "You Don't you think it's okay?" Chen Ruokuang hesitated for a while, then replied: "Not necessarily." Huang Bieshan said: "Brother, your life is important, are you still ashamed? What's wrong, just tell me , or I can think of something for you!" Chen Ruokang said: "It's just a symptom. A few days ago, a piece of skin was torn, and only clear water flowed. Now it's closed." Huang Bieshan stumbled and said: "Why didn't you say it earlier, this is the most serious disease." Chen Ruokuang saw Huang Bieshan speak so solemnly, he panicked and asked what is the disease?Huang Bieshan said: "Untie your clothes and wait for me to take a look." Chen Ruokang propped up half of his body, leaned against the head of the bed, and untied the buttons weakly, exposing his chest.Looking at Huangbie Mountain at a glance, there are many red dots the size of copper coins on the snow-white skin, which is more and more vivid.Huang Bieshan looked at it, nodded, told Chen Ruokuang to button up his clothes, and said to him, "This is definitely syphilis, and it must have reached the third stage. It needs to be treated quickly." Chen Ruokuang heard this. , like a basin of cold water, drenched my head, I was so scared that I couldn't speak for a long time.Seeing him like this, Huang Bieshan comforted him and said, "There is nothing to do now. Fortunately, this disease is not irreversible. It's late at night and there is no time to think of a solution. I'll take you to the hospital tomorrow morning. "Chen Ruokang said: "I don't have any money now, how can I go to the hospital?" Huang Bieshan said: "Fortunately, in the hospital, you don't have to pay first, you can go in and talk later. If there is any tip, I can think of it for you Ways." Chen Ruokang is the person who likes to make friends with squanderers, and has always looked down on him for this shabby Huangbie Mountain.Unexpectedly, when he fell ill this time, none of his good friends came to see him.On the contrary, Huang Bieshan treats people with such a bloody attitude, which is even more rare.As soon as I was grateful in my heart, I couldn't help but shed tears.Huang Bieshan thought he was suffering from anxiety and said, "Your illness is just delayed for a while, so it doesn't matter. As a guest, if something happens, who will take care of you, you'd better take care of yourself." Huang Bieshan said this Those words touched Chen Ruokang's mind, and he began to sob and cry even more.Huang Bieshan comforted him for a long time, and then asked the servant to make him a pot of tea and put it in front of the bed before he left the newspaper office and went home.Here Chen Ruokuang is sleeping alone on the bed, remembering what Huang Bieshan said, the syphilis has reached the third stage, and he is very scared.He complained to himself that he shouldn't be running around in the alley, and felt that all the prostitutes he knew were as poisonous as snakes and scorpions.Then I thought about dying, leaving a widow in the family, a widow without a son, what would happen?Thinking of this, I felt sad for a while, and tears flowed out like a spring, from the corner of my eyes to the pillow, and most of the pillow was wet from crying.At this time, it was more than two o'clock, and the yard was full, and there was no sound at all.I only heard the ticking of the clock in the next room, and there were some rustling noises on the ground in the room. When I stretched my head to look, there were three or four mice crawling around under the table, scratching their little ones. Nose, sniffing around on the mat, trying to find some odds and ends to eat.At this moment, the room felt more and more silent.Chen Ruokang was sleeping on the bed, thinking about it, how could he sleep!Occasionally, he closed his eyes and seemed to be at home for a while, and was scolded by his mother. After a while, it seemed that he was in the hospital again, and the doctor was treating him and performing operations on him.In this regard, I was confused and made a fuss all night. At dawn, he fell asleep instead, and when he woke up, Huang Bieshan was already standing in front of the bed, teaching him to put on his clothes slowly, hired a car for him, and took him to the hospital himself.It goes without saying that Chen Ruokang is grateful to Huangbie Mountain.In fact, what Huang Bieshan did was also the duty of a friend. Huang Bieshan sent Chen Ruokang to the hospital, but he felt that his mind was over, and he still obeyed his purpose of walking and walked back.Unexpectedly, it was too late, the lunch in the guild hall had already been eaten.He fumbled in his pocket and pawned a cotton robe in the morning, but it cost only four yuan, which was completely spent by Chen Ruokuang.There were only ten or twenty copper coins left on him, and I was afraid that it would not be enough to eat in a small restaurant, so he took ten copper coins and asked Chang Ban to buy seven sesame seed cakes and three pickles for one meal.他的意思，是要留着余下的十几个铜子，做今天一天的散花。后来有人知道了这事，埋怨他太冤，说陈若狂这人，平常法螺吹得乱响，只爱交阔朋友，有了钱，家也不问，身也不顾，就到胡同里去胡花，要到如今，也是活该。你当了衣服，饭也舍不得吃，替他去医院，那又何必！黄别山听了，不过笑笑，这也是合着古人一句话，“各行其心之所安”罢了。 从此以后，黄别山就每日到医院里去一次，看望陈若狂。过了几天，医生背地里对黄别山说，“先生和害病的是什么关系？”黄别山说：“是同事的。”医生说：“这个人中毒太深，恐怕无法医治，最好是通知他家里一声。”黄别山听了这话，吓了一跳，就找他们的经理王天白商量。王天白道：“这个人既然是你送进医院去的，那末，人情做到底，你就拍个电报到他家里去罢。我这几天很忙，没有工夫问他。”黄别山道：“拍电报到他家里去，那是自然。不过据医生说，这人恐怕在旦夕之间，等不及他家里人来，这后事总得先筹画。我是一个穷光蛋，你是知道的，除非出点力，款子是挪不动的。到底他和我们同事一场，你要替他设一点法子才好。” 王天白沉吟着道：“我多少可以筹一点款子，但是他家里人来了，要不问这笔帐，那如何是好？难道说，还要我垫出来吗？”黄别山听了这话，心里已经是很气，心想骗他垫出再说。便道：“听说他家里很富有的，决不能连累朋友，这可以不必过虑。但不知道你能等多少？”王天白道：“我筹十块钱。”黄别山见他这样不讲交情，把脸都气黄了。正想发作王天白几句，忽然医院来了一个电话，说是陈若狂忽然病重，已经于十二点钟死了，请报馆里人前去收尸。黄别山、王天白都不料他死得这样快，大家为之愕然。后事如何？Break it down next time.
