It is said that there is a family in the south of Sijiucheng. The man used to load tobacco for the official master, but the official master twisted his pigtails and didn't have the heart to smoke any more cigarettes, so the man set up a cigarette stand, just in the south thirty. At the entrance of the alley, others call him Yantan Wu.
Wu's daughter-in-law, a smoke stall, was a fool. One time, she was guarding the stall for a man, and she sat in a shop where pork was expensive. When people asked how much for pork, she said what kind of cigarettes do you like.
This joke was spread by word of mouth among the neighbors, partly because there was no rush in life, usually because the silly daughter-in-law of the tobacco stall Wu was handsome.
How handsome are you? Uneducated market pranksters can't describe it, but they always blow a few whistles when she passes by.
When I saw her, she was no longer pretty. She was in her thirties, her hair was half white, and her temples were fastened with black clips. It was because I accidentally burned my hair while cooking, so I simply gave two scissors.
She likes to wear a light blue padded jacket, revealing the khaki lining inside, and sometimes even the scarlet sweat towel is half outside. When talking to her, the snot will come down, she pushes the base of her palm, Rub it in the middle of people twice, and wipe it twice on the corner of the clothes.
I don't know if this is the reason, but the color of her clothes is always darker and lighter, more sloppy than the doll she is holding.
The girl she was holding was only three or four years old. She didn't look like her silly grandmother. She was born smart and smart.
Neighbors love it.
I think that Master always came to see Ah Qing because he liked this child.
Ah Qing is the silly daughter-in-law of Yantan Wu, whose real name is Yi Shuiqing. Yi Shui Qing, Qing Shui Yi, I chewed it over and over again, and found the name very pleasant.
Master often came to see her, sometimes staring blankly under the sun, sometimes holding an umbrella in the rain, but always at the base of the wall.
Then he handed me the pork in his hand and sent me to it.
Sometimes it's also half a roast chicken.
There was only a jug of wine, which was shaken and swayed in my hand, and made many movements of extending and retracting, but it was never handed over to me.
I think the same, fools can't drink, they're afraid of going crazy.
Once, the little girl from the Wu family in the cigarette stall was thrown a ball of mud by some rascals, saying that she had a foolish mother, and Ah Qing hugged her and cried, but the master just stepped forward, but hesitantly stayed in front of her. After a while, she took the remaining two or three steps. She squatted down, covered her skirt in the mud ball, and called her: "Aqing."
For the first time, I knew that Master's voice could be so gentle, like the wine in her favorite Xishan shop.
Ah Qing looked up at her with a snort, her nose running down again.
We are not afraid of messing things up when it comes to fighting, but I never thought that Master would reach out and stop Ah Qing from wiping her nose, and then use her fingers to carefully wipe away the tears on her face.
When I first started my apprenticeship, Master asked me to step on a stool to cook. I choked on the smoke and burst into tears. Master just threw a piece of gray cloth at me and said, "Be careful, don't fall into the dishes."
I thought she should be very disgusted with crying.
I have never seen Master cry, nor did Ah Qing when he died.
Ah Qing was taken away by the newly appointed Jun master when her daughter was five years old, along with Wu Tan, saying that she was involved with the former honest officials. Pork stomped on a kitchen knife and said that it could be involved. Wu did not know the characters of the tobacco stall, and in the past he was just a shredded tobacco. What is this called, the new official took office three fires, and the fire ignited the smoke stall Wu.
The powerful sparks smashed into the poor's house and burned down a piece easily.
How Ah Qing died, I don't know. Master and I came back from Hebei after picking up some gold, and we learned the news. Master stood in front of Ah Qing's house for three days. On the third day, he vomited. When the blood came, Mo Lu smiled again and said, "It's better to die."
I was afraid that Master would go crazy, so I peeked at her for seven days, but she was as calm as ever, but finally opened the jug of wine that was not delivered.
Half a month later, the master found out the news that the little girl from Aqing's family was not taken to the military mansion, as if it was entrusted to the third uncle who came to visit relatives, saying that she had returned to Guangdong.
You see, silly Ah Qing is a mother, and she always has some clever instincts.
The master led me away from Sijiucheng and went all the way to the south. I searched all the way to no avail. When I thought the girl had no way to live, I saw her in an old tomb in Jinan.
She is still Yuxue cute, aura is compelling, her eyes are dripping, and a bow is tied on the headband.
The master stared at her, and after a while, he asked me, "Eleven, is that A Yin?"
This is not the first time I saw Ayin, but Ayin thought it was the first time she saw me. Later, I realized that she was almost sold to the kiln. I've been pork a few times.
Ah Yin and I are different girls, but we live and eat together. She taught me to secretly pick balsam flowers, dyed me red-colored Kodan, made me grow long hair and braided it, begged me to chop firewood and fetch water for her, and tricked me into giving her the broken money I had saved, saying it was for me Go to town and buy some nice new clothes.
The skirt of the dress was as short as the calf, the cuffs could not cover the wrists, and the shoulder line was shrunk tightly, still A Yin's favorite pink color.
Master always stares at me and Ayin in a daze, takes a sip of wine and looks at her, and takes another sip of wine to look at me.
When A Yin found out with conscience, she gave me a jade pendant with white suet on my birthday. I put it in my hand and looked up at her again.
She let out a chuckle, and said that she put a hundred hearts into it, not from the ground, but from Hu Yuge, it is a licensed product.
I thanked me a lot and put it on my body, but because of it I was severely punished by Master.
When I went to the tomb that day, Master was furious when he saw the jade pendant on my waist, so I immediately took it off. Then, without even opening the coffin, I went straight back to the city and ordered me to kneel in the courtyard.
I knelt in the yard all night, A Yin accompanied me, shiveringly stuffed a few steamed buns.
In the early morning of the second day, Master came to see me. Seeing me and the pitiful A Yin, he sighed and said, "Go to the tomb later, and keep your body clean."
I responded with an "um", and out of the corner of the eye was Ah Yin's arrogant red headband.
Master left in the winter, and the wine hurt his body. He was too thin to be human. He even spoke like a famous actor, and it was extremely difficult to utter a sentence.
She asked me, do you still remember Ah Qing in Sijiucheng? It's Ayin's daughter.
Remember, Yantan Wu's silly daughter-in-law.
Silly? The master smiled, his dry eyes were dull and dull, and said, there is no girl smarter than Ah Qing.
Master told me a story.
She said, Ah Qing is her senior sister, and also my master's most proud student. She divides gold to fix acupoints, kneads formulas and recites mantras. There is nothing wrong with it, and because of her extraordinary figure and picturesque eyes, she is first-class astonished. Only brilliant.
Because of the heavy yin and fear of ghosts and ghosts, there are only two of them in the division. Like Ah Qing, I and Ah Yin, she eats and lives together, and loves sisters. As the name suggests, Aqing people are as cold as jade. They don't like to talk or laugh. It's just that every time I return from the tomb, I always make a detour to the Xishan shop to make a pot of wine and secretly pass it to Ah Yin to drink.
Ah Yin is my master, Zhong Yin.
My master is a man, and it is not very convenient for them to discipline them. He only occasionally found the smell of alcohol in the quilt, and then asked Ah Yin to pick up thirty dans of water.
Of the thirty tandems, only ten tandems were uneven, half of the well water had been sprinkled, and the remaining twenty tandems were neatly arranged. At a glance, one could see that the water-carrying people were good at bottoming out, and their postures were like green bamboo.
The master naturally saw it, and everyone in the whole division saw it, but no one said anything.
The accident was very small, and it was more difficult to capture than the expression on Master's narration. At first, it was just that A Yin had a fever every three days, and then gradually started talking nonsense. After another three or two days, he got up at night and sat in front of the mirror, wearing a red hijab, and babbled.
A-Qing panicked and went to invite the master. The master looked at it for a while, and then touched A Yin's artery again, which was useless.
I asked the master what this meant.
The master laughed dryly and said, ghosts haunt the marriage.
Only later did she find out that when she went to the tomb a month ago, she touched a few coffins, and the tomb was actually a thousand-year-old tomb. The family was buried in one place, and the old man and his wife, along with a son who died young, all confessed to the fire. Mrs. and Mrs. fell in love with my master and wanted to pull her to marry the young master, so she left the jade pendant that she wore with her and made a life and death seal. Before seven, seven, forty-nine days, she would be trapped as a ghost and go to the tomb. get married.
Ghost marriage? I looked at the master.
The master was silent for a while before he spoke, of course it was not completed.
Her senior sister, A Qing, her amazing and talented senior sister, took out her own soul and three souls, made a ghost puppet with what she had learned all her life, and sent it to the grave to exchange Ah Yin's life and death seal.
Aqing's appearance as a heavenly man, exchange Aqing for Ayin, the family will naturally be overjoyed.
It was just the puppet technique, which was deceived for a while, and it didn't take long for it to leak. The old man and his wife were furious and broke up Ah Qing's one soul and three souls. The three souls belonged to love, hatred, and desire.
And that soul, called Shuangling, is smart and agile.
The rest of the story, Master did not tell, but I understand.
Without intelligence, she became a foolish woman. Without erotic desire, she doesn't remember my master.
Ah Qing left the teacher's door the day she pinched the puppet. Others only said that she had provoked the eldest master, and was frightened. Even the teacher sighed again and again. It was only after my master visited the ancient tomb many years later that he learned the reason.
There was finally something flickering in the master's eyes, a faint light, loneliness.
I think, maybe Ah Qing still has some fragmented memories, otherwise why is her daughter named Ah Yin.
Ah Yin, Ah Yin. It is easy to fall in love, difficult to hide, easy to clear, and difficult to clear.
I buried my master at the foot of Jiuru Mountain, and then brought Ayin back to Sijiu City.
In Sijiucheng, I set up a cigarette stand together with Ayin. Ayin wears cut tobacco very neatly. He often laughs and says that this is probably not an ancestral craftsmanship.
The cigarette stall is at the mouth of Nanshitiao Hutong, and the pork beside it is stomping on a kitchen knife. When someone asks me how much a cigarette costs, I ask him - what kind of cigarette do you like.
