It turned out that the lights at the door were bright, and there were many carriages, cars, rickshaws lined up along the two sides of the door.After thinking about it for a while, since he came, and according to Hong Junsheng's words, he really walked in all the way, and no one stopped him.Walking into the third courtyard, I heard the noisy sound of many people arguing, like many people scolding each other, or like a meeting place where many people were arguing about something, but I couldn't tell what it was. noise.Suddenly a gust of wind blew over from the corner of the wall, and I felt a very strong smell rushing into my brain.Smell it carefully, but it smells like opium smoke.He thought that there was opium smoke in the club, which is also a very common thing, but such a strong smell, as if burning soot, was very strange.He was thinking here, when suddenly Hong Junsheng shouted from behind: "Here, here." Yang Xingyuan turned his head to look, and Hong Junsheng was standing at the door of the wing waving.He walked in, and there was no one else in the room. On the small round table, there were two dishes and a bowl of soup, and half a bowl of fried rice with eggs on the side.Hong Junsheng smiled and asked: "Can you eat? I invite you." Yang Xingyuan said: "I can't eat the porridge I just ate. But why are you eating here alone?" Hong Junsheng said: " I have a friend who just won a treasure and won more than 300 yuan. I said it was fun and wanted to eat red, but he gave me a five-yuan bill. I was hungry, so I took it For this money, order the kitchen to prepare a meal for you, and bring it here to wait for you." After hearing this, Yang Xingyuan looked at the dishes on the table, a plate of pepper chicken, a plate of roasted winter bamboo shoots, a large bowl of snow bamboo shoot soup, and said Not like a casual dish.I asked what algorithm this is?Hong Junsheng said: "According to the rules, it's half a yuan per person. He cooks better dishes, so he always gives one yuan. If you want to order food, it will be more expensive." Yang Xingyuan said: "If you can order food, then Can't it become a small restaurant?" Hong Junsheng said with a smile: "The dishes in a small restaurant may not be as complete."

Yang Xingyuan said: "In this way, everyone in Weiyang Club has become a glutton." Hong Junsheng sat down to eat, finished his meal with a smile, put down his chopsticks, took out his handkerchief, and wiped his mouth.Smiling, he said to Yang Xingyuan: "Do you think that the people in this club are like Club No. 9? The artists here are not necessarily members of the two houses. The so-called artists are craftsmen, not meetings. Up, down, down Level 3, I don’t know how many people come and go every day. Among the three people, if one person eats, the business of this small kitchen is very good. "When I was talking, a cook wearing an apron came in with a tray to collect the bowls. He said to Hong Junsheng: "How is fourth master today? "Hong Junsheng said:" I didn't do anything. "The cook said:" What a lively scene today!I heard that there are more than 10,000 wins and losses.Just now Qi Zixue picked up a bargain. In a word, he got a thousand dollars. Isn't this luck that can be ignited?No wonder they are newly promoted to director? "Hong Junsheng said:" How can you pick up a thousand yuan in one sentence? "The cook said:" A new injustice bucket came today. I don't know which one. He brought three thousand yuan. He must be a banker. If he didn't have a few treasures, he lost two thousand yuan.He was in a hurry, and said: "There is still a thousand yuan. I want a pair, and I sold it as a treasure." Qi Zixue was standing on the side of the table with his hands behind his back, looking at Baolu, waiting for an opportunity. Listen. With this sentence, he casually agreed, saying: "I will buy it. Without waiting for someone to say a second word, this man jumped up, raised his hand, and shouted a double with all his strength, then opened the treasure box at once, and looked down, but it was a single.He shook his head twice, sighed, pushed the ten stacks of bills in front of Qi Zixue with both hands, and said, "Take it, take it." Without saying a word, blushing, he left. You Thinking about what Qi Zixue said, he said it casually. He originally intended to please him, but it turned out to be a double, and he turned around and left. Bi, at least you should ask again, ask him if he is right or not? Once you uncover it, you lose, and your money is on the table, can you still collect it?" The cook pointed his fingers and said Gao, Xing, someone shouted outside: "Old Liu, why have you collected the bowl for a long time? Come here soon." Hearing the call, the cook put away the bowl and left.Yang Xingyuan asked Hong Junsheng: "In this way, your place is actually a big gambling game." Hong Junsheng said: "It's not too big, but it's insured, and it's very lively." Yang Xingyuan said: "No gambling. , can I also go to watch the venue?" Hong Junsheng said: "Yes, there is no class in the casino."

After speaking, Hong Junsheng led him into the first courtyard. In the main room above, the lights were on, and the voices of people were noisy.I opened the curtain and went in to have a look. In the middle of the room, there were two large dining tables, which were close together and about three feet long. Around the table, there was a row of people sitting, and another layer of people stood behind the seats.On the front of the table, a person shook the treasure box, put it down, and smoked a cigarette there with both hands in his sleeves.People around here took out silver dollar banknotes, some put them inside, and some put them outside.Seeing some people, Yang Xingyuan took out banknotes and shook his head a few times.Some people took out money and threw it on the table vigorously. After cursing, they said, "I want to bet on the treasure." Some people counted the money in their hands, but turned around. Talk to the person next to you.Some people put their money in front of them, but they are smoking cigarettes and thinking about their own affairs.After a while, as soon as the man opened the treasure box, there was an uproar of people's voices: some scolded, some sighed, some sneered, some laughed, some laughed and talked to bystanders, and some complained , making a fuss.On the opposite side of the treasure opening, there is a person who keeps the silver dollar bills on one side, gathers the silver dollar bills on the other side together, sweeps them into his arms, takes out the money, and keeps them according to that side. The amount of money was lost one by one.Immediately, the table was full of people, as were many rich elders in long robes and jackets.During the commotion inside, I saw a person walking in from outside, wearing a fur hat askew, wearing a serge leather robe, a green satin waistcoat, a string of gold chains hanging from the pocket, a coat on the arm of the left hand, and a coat in the right hand. Holding a cane, flicking all over the place, with a half cigar in his mouth, he walked in with his chest straight.The people in the casino over there saw this man coming in and greeted him one after another. Someone had already come over and took his coat and hat from him, and those who were watching around stepped aside to give up a chair. , ask him to sit down.He rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, pressed the table with one hand, looked at the money on the table, and said with a smile: "Today's situation is not too big, I will come back after a while." Yang Xingyuan saw this man's airs. Da, seemed to have some background, so he gently asked Hong Junsheng: "Who is this person?" Hong Junsheng said: "It's a carpenter." Yang Xingyuan said: "You are talking nonsense, how can there be such a carpenter in the world?" Hong Junsheng said: " Don’t you believe me? I’ll show you two more people.” Then he asked privately, “There are two councilors at this table, do you know them?” Yang Xingyuan said, “There’s a man with a moustache and a blue satin robe. I recognize him, he is Congressman Song Qiufeng." Hong Junsheng said: "Look at the two people sitting next to him."

When Yang Xingyuan looked at it, he saw a fat man sitting on his upper hand, with a dark face and a wide mouth, revealing four or five yellow golden teeth, a big head like a wax gourd, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans protruding from the forehead.He was wearing a gray satin gown, the buttons on the breast were unbuttoned, and half of the chest was exposed, revealing a roll of fox fur.Look before him, there is a lot of silver coins upside down.The person sitting next to him has a fair complexion and two beards. He is wearing a green wool jacket, wearing tortoiseshell glasses with thin rims, and has a diamond ring on his left hand. The diamond is as big as a broad bean.Hong Junsheng said: "Look at these two people, what roles do they look like?" Yang Xingyuan said: "They are nothing more than petty bureaucrats and politicians." After hearing this, Hong Junsheng smiled at him and pulled him aside Said: "Are you also a snobbish person?" Yang Xingyuan said: "How do you say that?" Hong Junsheng said: "For these two people, the fat man is a tortoise slave who runs a kiln, and the beard is from a cigarette smuggler. Little hooligan. You saw him dressed richly, and you said he was a bureaucrat. You only judge people by their clothes, aren’t you a snobbish eye?” Yang Xingyuan listened to his words, thought about it, but she also resembled him.He said: "Since there are these people, why are the councilors sitting together?" Hong Junsheng said: "Didn't I say that there is no social class in the gambling field." Forgot. Didn’t you invite me to read the Song version of the book during the day? Where’s the book?” Hong Junsheng said: “The seller was still here just now, why did he disappear all of a sudden? It’s probably because you’ve had a good time, I’ll take you inside Go find him." As he spoke, he led Yang Xingyuan into another yard.The smell of opium smoke was very strong.The room above was hung with a thick green cotton curtain. When Hong Junsheng lifted the curtain, he felt a burst of hot air, with the smell of sweat, oil, and opium coming out from inside.

Yang Xingyuan suddenly felt a burst of hot air, felt sick, and couldn't help but spit it out.Seeing that Hong Junsheng had gone inside, he hesitated for a while, thinking: "The outside can't stand anymore, can we go inside?" He stood in the yard and didn't go in.At this moment, Hong Junsheng raised half of the curtain, poked his head out, and greeted him directly.He thought to himself, it would be good to go in and have a look, to see what it was like inside, so he bravely walked in. At first glance, this room is opened up by three big upper rooms, forming a large open room.There was a small table by the door, and a few pen and ink ledgers and the like were also placed on the table.There was an old man who wore a small oiled melon hat and a pair of big glasses with one foot. The broken foot was replaced by a thick thread, which stuck to his ear, and his mouth was full of words. Gray beard and runny nose.He sat at the table with his glasses resting on his forehead, dozing off.Around the room, there were some twenty or so small shops along the walls. On the bed, there was only one gray blanket and two greasy blue cloth pillows. with a pipe.These small shops are connected end to end, and more than half of them are occupied by people.Some of those people were smoking, and some fell asleep in front of the mung bean-like lamp.The sounds of smoking, snoring, coughing, sneezing, and whispering are very lively.As soon as Yang Xingyuan walked in, he felt that the soles of his feet were wet and sticky, and his shoes were uncomfortable.Looking down, it turned out that the ground was covered with snot and thick phlegm. In addition, there were many melon seed shells, cigarette ends, and patches of water. There was almost no place to set foot.Seeing this, Yang Xingyuan didn't even dare to move his feet, and walked out.Hong Junsheng followed him out and asked, "Why are you leaving?" Yang Xingyuan said, "Forget it, for nothing. I stood inside, feeling nauseated, and couldn't help it. It's late at night, and I have to go back. Song Banshu, you tomorrow Bring it to my house." After finishing speaking, he still turned to the front yard.

Looking at the sky, the night was as black as lacquer, and the sky above the courtyard was covered with blue stars, and a frosty wind blew down from the house, making his face aching from the cold.From a distance, I heard a few rooster crows. It was not the fifth day, but the fourth watch. Hastily went home. She slept so deeply that night that she didn't wake up until twelve o'clock the next day.When he was sleeping soundly, he felt someone shaking his body, and when he opened his eyes, it was Wu Bibo.Yang Xingyuan said: "Why did you come so early in the morning?" Wu Bibo said: "It's almost one o'clock, is it still early in the morning?" As he spoke, he urged Yang Xingyuan to get up.Yang Xingyuan got up and washed his face while talking with Wu Bibo.Wu Bibo smiled and said, "Did you receive the letter I left at the Mirror Office yesterday?"

Yang Xingyuan replied indifferently: "Received." Wu Bibo said: "Okay, why is there a disturbance?" Yang Xingyuan said: "A thousand years is also a banquet that is going to end, so it's over, but it's clean." Wu Bibo smiled and said: "Your words seem to be words of relief, but in fact they are not. You just cannot be free. I don't care if you want to leave or not. Let me ask you, why did you start?" At this time, Yang Xingyuan was sitting On an easy chair by the window, the sun outside the window, there is a ray of sunlight shining in front of him, shining on the flying dust, like a white train out of thin air.He held a cup of hot tea in his hand, exhaled hotly, and the air went up from the cup in a small circle.Holding the cup, Yang Xingyuan looked at the heat of the teacup with his eyes, passing through that ray of sunlight, it became fainter as it went up, and then disappeared.Thinking about what Wu Bibo said in my heart, holding the teacup, I just lost my mind.Wu Bibo said: "What are you planning?" Yang Xingyuan heard him ask, Fang woke up, smiled and took a sip of tea, and said: "You saw her yesterday, what did she say to you?" Wu Bibo smiled and said: " Since you threw it away, why do you still ask her?" Yang Xingyuan said: "I don't mean anything else, let's see how she chooses the words." Wu Bibo laughed and said: "It doesn't matter how she chooses the words anyway, isn't it? Do I need to ask more?" Yang Xingyuan said: "Tell me, what did she say?" Mi Bibo said: "It's okay to tell you, first tell me why you got annoyed with her. "

Yang Xingyuan sighed and said: "It's too long to talk about, and I can't completely blame her, but I am very discouraged." Wu Bibo said: "Let's give a general idea." Yang Xingyuan said: "I am at Lao Qi's place. Although I can't spend more money, I will never avoid small entertainments. I think you know that too. The Wuxi Lao San always treats you with disdain. Treat me with all my heart, I want to sit in the room, no matter what, she is in front of me, the dead will not leave a step, it is even more powerful than thieves and criminals." Wu Bibo laughed: "You have ulterior motives in your words. Why don't you want her to stand in front of you?"

Yang Xingyuan said: "We acted on every occasion to have some fun. These bustards have become tasteless in their language and hideous in appearance, but she always makes use of it to make a big fortune out of me. I'm really upset. Recently, there have been two times when Li Yun didn't like it." When we met, it was all accompanied by the third child and said some irrelevant words, so I guessed two or three points, but I still suspected that it was a coincidence. This winter solstice, when I went to her place, I ran into someone making a flower head. "Wu Bibo pointed at Yang Xingyuan's nose and smiled, "Hey!

You are here for this!You really can't control yourself, she is not someone to you, can you control her? "Yang Xingyuan said: "Of course I don't care.But I don't blame her for it either. "Wu Bibo said:" You don't blame her, so what do you say? "Yang Xingyuan said: "Since the winter solstice, the third child in Wuxi has been crying poorly in front of me, saying that the New Year will not pass, and I am already a little tired of hearing it.One day, I went to He Jianchen's place, but he was not at home, it was his wife who came out to greet him. "Wu Bibo interjected:" Mr. Hua has really changed.A few days ago I went to He Jianchen's house, I saw that she was wearing a gray leather jacket and a black skirt, she looked like a family member, Jianchen was teaching her to read a thousand characters. "

Yang Xingyuan said: "Isn't it? It's just that there is a layer where acquaintances come and like to keep it for gossip. This day, thanks to her kindness, she personally cooked a bowl of rice cakes for me to eat. She sat on the side and tied woolen clothes, and said Gossip started. She smiled and asked me: "Do you still go to Lao Qi's place often? ’ I said: “It’s been a long time.” Hua Jun shook his head with a smile and said: “I don’t believe it. 'I will tell her a little bit about what I have said recently.Hua Jun laughed and said, "Have you heard anything else?" I said, "No. ’ Saying that, I saw Hua Jun lowered her head to tie the rope there, but she smiled slightly. I figured there must be some articles in it, so I asked her if she heard anything?Hua Jun said: "I haven't seen them for a long time, what do I know?" I said: "Maybe Jian Chen heard it and told his sister-in-law. Hua Jun said, how could these words reach her ears.The more I listened to what she said, the more interesting it became, so I said that I won't go anyway, and it doesn't matter if you tell me.Hua Jun said: 'Tell you, you are going to die of anger!Turning around, Jian Chen found out, and said that I was troublesome.I still won't tell you. 'I want to ask her to say that since she refuses, it is better to use the method of provocation to provoke her.Then he said: "I see, you always have a little sisterly friendship. Slowly say that I have not suffered a loss, but I have suffered a loss, and I should say that I should. How can you tell me." Hua Jun said: "It's unreasonable. In the eyes of the heart, who is it? ’ I said: “Then, why didn’t you tell me?” She then said that one day when she went to the amusement park, she met Bai Haitang, who was in the same team as Li Yun. People? Bai Haitang said, yes. She said there was a person named Yang, would she go? Bai Haitang said that he went there often, but he did it for the sake of face, and Li Yun's mother was not happy to perfunctory him.One day, the surname Yang sat until Yan left at one o'clock, and Lao Qi's mother wiped off her skin, and scolded Lao Qi, and said carefully, beware of being beaten.Lao Qi was too timid, he was too scared to make a sound.From then on, the person surnamed Yang often gave him iced food.It's just that the surname is Yang, but Shoutou Mazi doesn't know anything about it.Hua Jun learned to say this, then smiled and said to me: "Don't be offended, that's what she said, not me scolding Shoutou." I said that I was a bit like Shoutou, and I was right. So I asked She refused to tell me what happened later. After I asked again and again, she said, "Lao Qi's mother pointed out that I was a poor guest, and it's nothing if I lost it. She will never treat me with good face in the future, so as not to be on guard against it." I used to listen quietly, but when I heard this, I couldn't help but blushed. When she saw it, she died and refused to talk about it. This is what Mr. Hua told me. What do you think I'm going to do?" Seeing Yang Xingyuan say this, Wu Bibo also felt that there was something wrong with Li Yun.Then he said with a smile to Yang Xingyuan: "If you want to get rid of troubles, you don't need to be selfless. Everyone has their own reasons. Don't envy others." That night, after Yang Xingyuan had dinner, he saw that the time was still early, so he went to the newspaper office, picked a book from the shelf and read it by the light.It turned out to be a copy of "The Collection of Suspected Rain". I flipped through two pages at random, and there was a piece of hardcover paper more than an inch long, covering the pages of the book, which was the back of a small photo.On it was crooked, a few lines of cursive writing in cursive script: Slightly watching, smiling, poor student!There is always love in the hands and clothes, and the desire to compare Anong to the new moon is only half-clear. I thought to myself, yes, this is still a small photo sent by Li Yun privately when I fell ill in the first half of the year, don't look at it. Covering the book, sandwiching the photo inside, pushing the book aside, he stood up, hands behind his back, and walked around the room a few times.Unknowingly, he recalled the first time he saw Li Yun that day, and felt that she was purely innocent at that time.At that time, she was wearing a moon-white jacket and trousers, matched with that jet-black braid, she was really exquisite and lovely. In just the past few months, there have been many brothel habits, which is really unexpected.Turning around and thinking about it, it makes sense.The place where she lives, what she hears and sees, how can it not change?In any case, she is a smart figure, and if she is in a good man's house, she is really a beautiful piece of jade.Thinking of this, Yang Xingyuan leaned one wrist on the coffee table, leaned over, put his face on his hands, and looked at the porcelain-covered oil lamp on the table quietly.Thinking of Li Yun's melon-seeded face, curvy hair that falls to the eyebrows, dark eyes, and when she smiles, she squints slightly, it's really indescribable.At this time, he seemed to be smelling a delicate fragrance, as if Li Yun was there once rubbing soap to wash his face, and he stood beside him, smelling the fragrance.Standing up and looking, it turned out that there was a pot of plum blossoms on the coffee table. When he moved, the plum blossoms in full bloom in the pot quietly dropped a burst of petals, both in the tea cup and on the coffee table. Yang Xingyuan unintentionally poured the cold tea from the cup into the flower plate, staring at the plum blossoms for a long time.Suddenly sat down at the table, opened "Suspected Rain Collection" again, and took a look at the photos again.This photo is a bust taken by Li Yun, with her body turned sideways, revealing a section of braided hair with a large silk knot inserted into the braided hair.One hand is pressing a book with the words "Dream of Red Mansions" on it, one hand is leaning on the back of the chair, and one index finger is compared to the lips. Turning around, the eyes are staring at the side, as if thinking about something.Next to the portrait, there are a few lines of words written by Yang Xingyuan himself: Taste a picture of a beautiful woman, put her hands on her chest and meditate, and there are several books spread out on the table, the words seem to be visible.The idea is to steal it, so it should be titled "Suo Meng Tu".Its few, Guo Liyun, because tell it.Li said: "What's the difficulty?"According to also can. Over the past seven days, with this testimony, A Du is so vivid, it is surprising, only this is enough to be similar to Yiqiu's disease. Yang Xingyuan looked at the photo, then looked at the postscript of the title, and sighed: "Cough! I passed by a rascal at that time, and I was so pitiful afterward." Looking at the photo again, I suddenly heard the clock on the wall, (car mill) (car mill) Grinding) knocked nine times, it was time for work, so I had to go to the newspaper office.When I came back at one o'clock in the middle of the night, the "Suspected Rain Collection" was still spread out on the table, and I picked up the photos and looked at them for a while. When I went to sleep, I stuffed them under the pillow.When I woke up the next day, I forgot about it. After lunch, Wu Bibo came again. He saw a corner of the photo under the pillow and said, "Whose photo is this? Put it under the pillow." Then he pulled out his hand, and he saw that it was Li Yun's. Like Yang Xingyuan’s inscription on it, he said with a smile: “Haha! You say to throw it away today, and say it’s over tomorrow, and you still do this stuff, so pretentious, I admire you.” Yang Xingyuan said: “Look at the ink marks on it too, Is it the words written now." Wu Bibo said: "I don't have that good eyesight, I only know today and today, and taking it out under your pillow has something to do with recent times." Yang Xingyuan said: "It's really a photo from the past , why should I keep it from you." He told him what happened in the book last night.Wu Bibo said: "That's right, isn't it because you are reluctant to give up? Probably you yourself are too embarrassed to turn around, I will be a peacemaker for you, and treat you two to dinner, okay? " Yang Xingyuan said: "What's wrong with this? I'm happy to go today, I'll go today, I'm happy to go tomorrow, I'll go tomorrow. If I go, will they throw me out?" Wu Bibo said: "Excellent In that case, we will go today. If you don’t have any concerns in your heart, go this time, just take a look at the flowers, and you can still leave it behind in the future, it doesn’t matter at all.” Yang Xingyuan said: “What’s the point of going for a while? With that money, can I still go to the opera?" Although Yang Xingyuan said so, she thought why not go for a walk to see what her attitude is, and whether she will go or not in the future is up to me, so it doesn't matter Woolen cloth?Wu Bibo also looked at him as if he was a little nostalgic, and said more and more in a nonchalant manner: "Never mind him! Why don't you go and see. If she really gives you ice, this time it will be a farewell; if she's okay , that was completely your misunderstanding, and you have to prove it even more. All in all, after this trip, the truth can be revealed. You go alone, or if you are a little embarrassed, you go with me, and I will say that I will be with you I dragged you there to eat. Then, you can turn around." Yang Xingyuan leaned on the couch, with his feet swaying, his eyes fixed on the ceiling, and he remained silent for a long time.Shaking his head suddenly and smiling, he said, "I still won't go." Wu Bibo said, "You thought about it for a long time, but suddenly you can't go, what's the reason?" Yang Xingyuan said, "There's no reason, I don't think there's much point in going." When Wu Bibo heard his accent, he obviously softened, and said: "If it is interesting or not, then this road can never be taken. However, I met Lao Qi in Qiyuan that day. According to her, she I’m very sorry for you, it’s because you lost your temper. That’s why I said I’m going to take a look and find out.” Yang Xingyuan sat up with a smile and asked, “What did she say to you that day?” Wu Bibo laughed Said: "Don't be hypocritical, just go with me. You can ask her face to face what she said to me, and you will naturally understand." Yang Xingyuan smiled slightly and remained silent.Wu Bibo said: "If you want to go, go, you are not going on a blind date, so why be embarrassed." Yang Xingyuan said: "It's not like that, first you broke the relationship firmly, and now you go again, isn't that boring?" Wu Bibo He said: "Hey! Didn't you just say that you can go whenever you like? Why are you talking nonsense again?" Yang Xingyuan was a bit of a relative at first, but Wu Bibo couldn't resist repeated agitation, so he agreed to go with a smile. It was only after three o'clock at this time, and they walked to the Songzhu Class, the door was ajar, but it was dark inside, not as bright as at night.Quietly, there is no sound.In the courtyard outside, someone raised his voice and shouted Miss Seven.Li Yun's aunt lifted the door curtain, leaned out half of her body, saw Yang Xingyuan, nodded with a smile, and then retracted.Yang Xingyuan was walking ahead, just about to enter the door, when Li Yun was wearing a water red velvet tights, with a lock of black hair hanging on her chest, twisting her hair with one hand, and lifting the door curtain with the other, she was meeting Yang Xingyuan Heads meet.Yang Xingyuan smiled, and Li Yun smiled, but they didn't say anything.When I entered the room, I saw a hair comb box on the table, and next to it were washbasins, towels, creams, face powder, rouge essence, incense soap, glass bottles, and porcelain jars, which were piled up on the table.Li Yun said to Wu Bibo: "I'm sorry! Please sit down, I'll do my braids first." Wu Bibo said: "Just do it, we love to watch people comb their hair." Li Yun said: "What's so good about combing your hair?" Wu Bibo said: "It's hard to say if you comb your hair well. What we care most about is peeking " Li Yun was sitting on a chair, licking her front hair in front of the mirror.Yang Xingyuan walked behind the chair with her hands behind her back.Li Yun looked at the mirror and said: "Go over there and wait for Ah Mao to braid my hair." Yang Xingyuan laughed and stepped aside, saying: "I thought you stopped talking to me, why did you start driving back? "Li Yun smiled and said nothing, so Auntie went to the back of the chair and braided her hair.Li Yun smiled at the mirror and asked: "It's very windy outside today." The aunt said: "The weather is very good, but there is no wind." Is it from the wind?" This sentence made everyone laugh.After a while, Li Yun finished combing her braids and changed her clothes. Auntie cleaned up the table and everyone sat and chatted.Yang Xingyuan leaned on the sofa chair, turned around, and saw a hanger standing behind the chair, and on the hanger was a blue satin velvet mandarin jacket with round flowers, and the fragrance was overwhelming.When he rolled his eyes, he suddenly understood, and unconsciously sneered, his face became hot, and he didn't know where the grievance came from, and he wanted to jump his feet to vent it.Li Yun poured half a cup of tea, walked over and handed it to Yang Xingyuan, and instead of picking up the tea, he looked at Li Yun's face first.Li Yun said: "What are you doing? Don't you recognize me?" Yang Xingyuan smiled as he took the teacup, "Congratulations, congratulations!" Li Yun blushed and said, "Congratulations what?" Do you understand?" Li Yun said: "I don't understand, Mr. Yang didn't want to come, but today he came here to pick someone out." How could Yang Xingyuan bear this sentence, his face was purple with anger, he stood up and put on his hat I'm leaving.At this time, Li Yun was sitting on the side, it would not be good to come over to stop him, and it would be bad not to stop him, so she turned her face to the wall, took out a handkerchief from the button, and just wiped away her tears.At first, Amao thought it was just a joke, but later it became more and more serious, so he stopped Yang Xingyuan and said, "Oh! She has a childish temper, what else do you not know, she is annoyed by just one or two jokes, isn't that Are you kidding me?" Wu Bibo also stopped him with a smile, "Sit down, you young couple, you two, think about it when you see it, make trouble when you see it, it's really unreasonable!" Auntie had already snatched Yang Xingyuan's hat and told him to sit down .At this time, it happened that Wuxi's third child came.She was wearing a big black fur coat, and she looked even fatter and whiter.When she saw Yang Xingyuan, she smiled with her naked eyes narrowed, and walked in all the way, saying incessantly, "Rare guest! Rare guest!" Seeing her coming in, Yang Xingyuan felt more and more unhappy, and only nodded slightly.Seeing the situation between the two parties, the third child in Wuxi had guessed eighty-nine points in his heart, so he smiled and said to Yang Xingyuan: "Master Yang won't come, but the seventh child keeps repeating in his mouth every day. When Master Yang comes, he will have to talk about it for a while." Sentence. I guessed this way a long time ago, haha, who knows that we met today, it was really good. She also told me one thing, she said that someone saw Master Yang buy a pair of bead flowers and send them to Xiaohong I went there. I don’t think so!” Speaking of this, he narrowed his naked eyes and smiled again.Said: "Lao Qi and you have such a friendship. I asked you how many winter clothes you want. Although I promised, I haven't done it yet. How can I send a pair of pearl flowers to my new friendship!" Wuxi What the youngest said, causing Li Yunyi to feel wronged, facing the wall, shrugged his shoulders and began to cry more and more.Wu Bibo interjected: "That's really wronged. This pair of bead flowers was given to others by Xiaohong, who didn't want them, and asked Lao Yang to send them back. This has nothing to do with him." Wuxi's youngest said: "I am the same way Thinking about it, there must be other reasons for this. Now that I say it, I understand." Depending on what she said, Yang Xingyuan ignored a word, sat on the side, barely lit a cigarette, and just smoked.Everyone froze and didn't say anything, but the room was quiet.After all, he was still the third child in Wuxi, talking and laughing, he pulled Li Yun over and sat in Yang Xingyuan.Said: "Don't be childish again." When he said it, he looked at Li Yun with a straight face, and Li Yun lowered his eyelids, not daring to look at her face anymore, turning around, only looking at Yang Xingyuan clothes.After a while, looking back, Wuxi's third son had left, and then she raised her head to look at Yang Xingyuan, but she couldn't help laughing first.Usually Yang Xingyuan sees Li Yun smiling, and she is indescribably happy. Seeing Li Yun's smile today, she feels that her smile is very forced, so she smiles back faintly, and turns around to see the blue satin ball The mandarin jacket of flowered camel's hair raised his head and sneered again.Seeing that Amao was not in the room, Li Yun kicked the carpet on the ground and said in a low voice, "I understand why you lost your temper today. I don't have anything else to say, God knows." Having said that, Amao She came in and gave Li Yun a wink, and Li Yun followed her all the way to the outside of the house. After a while Li Yun came back, her face was full of displeasure, and she was still sitting beside Yang Xingyuan.Seeing that, Yang Xingyuan knew that there were gunshots again, so she deliberately pretended not to know.After all, Wu Bibo had little knowledge in this way, so he asked: "Lao Qi, I think you have something on your mind, what's the matter?" Li Yun said: "Someone called Tiao Zi, I want to go out for a while." Wu Bibo said: "This is a very common thing, is it worth puffing up your face?" Li Yun said: "This customer is so annoying, I don't want to do it, he just came to pester me, I'm really tired He's dead." Yang Xingyuan laughed and said, "Do you mean you hate it more than us?" Li Yun said, "Why? You keep saying such witty things." Yang Xingyuan said with a smile, "I'm telling the truth, why is it a joke? You think, You want to go out, but we always sit and don’t leave. It’s embarrassing for you to leave us, let us sit down, and delay things, isn’t it annoying?” He put on his hat and wanted to leave again.Amao stopped him and asked: "What are you busy with?" Yang Xingyuan said: "We won't leave, Lao Qi is gone, teach us to guard the house with her?" But Amao had nothing to say.Yang Xingyuan and Wu Bibo walked out.Walking to the door, I saw a sedan-style gray car parked there.Yang Xingyuan smiled and said to Wu Bibo: "Don't laugh at us, we have the same thing." The two talked and laughed, and walked all the way, just after they left the Shaanxi alley, they saw the gray car passing by, and the car was sitting on it. It was none other than Li Yun.There was another man, about forty years old, with a mustache, who looked like a fashionable politician, chatting and laughing with Li Yun in the car.Yang Xingyuan turned Wu Bibo's arm to show him, but when Wu Bibo looked up, the car had already passed by.Yang Xingyuan asked: "Did you see it?" Wu Bibo said: "I caught a glimpse, it seemed that Lao Qi was sitting in the car alone." Yang Xingyuan said: "How about what I said? Now we can talk about this matter To prove it?" Wu Bibo said: "You are really not relieved, this paper tiger can't be pierced. If it is pierced, it will be meaningless." Yang Xingyuan didn't say anything, sighed, and said goodbye to Wu Bibo and went home up. After three days of separation, Wu Bibo came to him again for a small matter.Walking into the yard, I only heard a groaning sound inside Yang Xingyuan's house, but it was not Yang Xingyuan's voice.Walking in and looking, Yang Xingyuan is not there, but He Jianchen is there.吴碧波便说道:“怎么你在这里吟起诗来了,主人翁呢?”何剑尘道:“这门也没有关,我一进来,主人翁就不在这里。我因为看见他和清人张问陶八首梅花诗的本事诗,很有点意思,我就念起来了。”吴碧波一看桌上,果然有张诗稿,那上头写道:“读花月痕,见韦痴珠本事诗,和张问陶梅花诗原韵,心窃好之,亦次其韵。”这下面就是诗。吴碧波看了一看,也就念起来:辜负鸥盟怅落霞,量珠无计愿终赊。 却疑眉黛春前瘦,记得腰肢醉后斜。 吴碧波道:“押斜字韵,颇有所指呢。”又大声念道:经过情场增阅历,换来愁绪益词华。 金铃愿化军多事,桃李生成薄命花。 吴碧波道:“何怨之深也!”何剑尘道:“你不要批评,且往后看。”吴碧波又念道:休从镜石证前生,因果谁能彻底清? 炼石补天原是幻,落花随水不关情。 一身浪欠风流情,九死难辞薄悻名。 无福敢嗟人负我,押衙慢作不平声。 吴碧波道:“张问陶的梅花原韵,很不好和,看他以上这两首,倒不牵强。若教我来,就要退避三舍了。”又念道:拈花一笑觉来迟,海上蜃楼幻可知。 遮莫因缘关性命,从无药饵治相思。 何剑尘道:“这样和韵,真便宜了他。”吴碧波又念道:天教飞絮随流水,风卷残蝉过别枝。 怪底江郎才力尽,画眉都不合时宜。 软语吴依话旧村,灯前尝与伴琴樽。 戏教月下迎红拂,约与江南隐白门。 小别化身留倩影,长宵把臂拭啼痕。 而今回首皆成恨,羞说倾城唾咳恩。 何剑尘道:“这都是事实,难为他硬嵌进去,却无痕迹。杏园还告诉我,要在清凉山傍随园故址去读书种菜,这不是梦话?”吴碧波念道:水流花谢泪珠缘,情海归样又一年。 寒苦诗怀消病骨,惺忪春梦感游仙。 精禽填石浑无奈,小鸟依人剧可怜。 凄绝临岐无一语,翠螺双敛怨先传。 扬州一觉倦游踪,泪债还清第几重。 此日何须真解脱,他生未必再相逢。 空留铀盒藏红豆,愿卖琴书访赤松。 检得青罗前日赠,粉香还似去年浓。 搓将瑞雪不成团,一曲箜篌掩泪弹。 风絮因缘随外转,桃花年命白头难。 夕阳芳草增时怨,明镜青灯觉梦寒。 画得真真能唤出,几回搁置又重看。 凤凰最爱碧梧枝,相惜惺惺柜有私? 目似含青为我瘦,心终不白许天知。 还珠休说今生事,题叶宣传旧日诗。 惆怅纸窗风雪里,孤吟正是夜长时。 吴碧波看了一遍,叹道:“杏园这个人,满口看破世情,这一点儿事,还老放在心里,真是何苦?”何剑尘道:“这话也难说,人非经过这种境地,是不会知道的。”吴碧波笑道:“这样说,你这断轮老手,也曾经过这种境地的了。”何剑尘一面和他说话,一面翻桌上的稿子,只见有一张水红信笺,上面圈圈点点写了一阂词,何剑尘禁不住吟起来道:“十年湖海,剩软红尘外,一肩风月……”一句未了,杨杏园夹着一大卷书走了进来。他走过来把稿子一卷,扯开抽屉,塞了进去。吴碧波道:“这又有什么不可公开的,你何必藏起来呢?”杨杏园道:“我的稿件,向来是散漫的,这里面虽说没有秘密的文件,怎样可以公开?”说着把手里那一卷书,也望抽屉里塞。吴碧波道:“难道这也是秘密文件吗?”杨杏园道:“这却是一样有趣味的东西,你们要看,你们可以来共同赏鉴。”说着,把那一卷书拿了起来,摆在桌上。 吴碧波一看,书页面上,是石印朱笔写的四个大字《仙佛杂志》,旁边另外署了一行小字,是“王羲之题”。何剑尘道:“胡说,现在哪来王羲之写的字。”杨杏园道:“你没看见仙佛两个大字吗?既然是仙佛合办的杂志,无论古今名家的著作,自然有法子搜罗了。”吴碧波将书页一翻,目录以后,便是图画。那画都是铜版印的,却很精致。第一张是铅笔画的一座山,隐隐约约是几条曲线结构而成。曲线中间,桠桠叉叉,堆了许多直线,这就是树林,树林按上,画了几点黑点,算是乌鸦。下面有字,注明琼岛十景之一。再翻过一页,一张图上,画了一个不等边的四边形,上面画了一个人头,人头上面有一首诗,那诗道:我是何人谁是我,凭空捏个大囗黎。 笑他卷发乱髯客,蓬岛归来又向西。 这诗下面署了两个字:“老颠。”图的上面另有铅印字注明是“南屏道祖济佛化身像”。何剑尘看着摇头道:“神仙不论有无,像他这样给神仙捧场,真是糟蹋人家。我听说北京有个除恶社,推吕洞宾为社长,专门干些设坛扶乩的玩意,大概这《仙佛杂志》,就是他们弄的。”杨杏园道:“是的。据他们社里人说,所有这些杂志里的诗文书画,都是扶乩扶出来的,就不是仙佛的著作,至低也是死了的文豪手笔。我听了这句话,特意向一个朋友借来瞻仰瞻仰。”何剑尘道:“我看这种事,十九靠不住。”杨杏园道:“但是据他们社里人说,却是活灵活现,一点没有假。他们又常说,他们社里有两个国务总理,特任的官儿不计其数。要不是灵验,怎样能教这些人死心塌地的相信?”何剑尘道:“他们所说的两个总理是谁?”杨杏园道:“一个是戈甘尘,一个却是那管七天总理印的宗大海。”他们两人正在这里说话,只见吴碧波拿了一本杂志坐在一边看,哈哈大笑起来。要知他为什么大笑,且听下回分解。
