Chapter 470: The chaotic strings of fate

Views:

Wu Dynasty, Jinghan Ten Years East, Shandong East Road, Yuying County. !

The winter is deep, and the snow is falling one after another, covering the inside and outside of the small county town with a piece of silver. Just in the current fish camp, not many people will be interested in such a snow scene.

Except for some wealthy people in big cities, or heartless children, such a heavy snow day is always the hardest for ordinary people to endure. Especially after the Qinling Huaihe line, it is not surprising that every winter, people accumulate firewood, often wrapped in bedding for a month or two, and live a life that is unwilling to get out of bed. One is because the weather is too cold and there is nothing to do in winter, and the other is because every household may not have winter clothes at this time. In many places, rural households may not even have basic warm clothes. When winter comes, they can only have winter clothes. The family was wrapped in quilts and suffered, every time they got out of bed, it was a torment.

And there are also poor families who are in dire circumstances. They chop up firewood and sell them everywhere in the late autumn and early winter, but they have no firewood to heat their homes in winter. The fact that the charcoal seller was worried about the low price of charcoal and wished for the cold weather was not a strange story in the Wu Dynasty at this time. In this way, when winter comes, there are no people in the vicinity of big cities who freeze to death on a large scale, which can be regarded as a peaceful year. As for the frail old people, it is not a strange thing to be able to survive the cold weather.

Of course, Yuying is not a big county, but after all, there is a wharf on the bank of the Yellow River. Some wealthy households live together. In such a snowy day, there are still some people who will go out. In the county seat, the business of several of the best restaurants and tea shops has declined due to the cold weather, but the business of brothels has been affected, but the impact is not great. Many high-stakes customers and wealthy households are willing to enjoy the warmth and home-like feeling in these places. Some merchants who stay in fish camps due to snowy days can only come to these places to hang out and spend short-term leisure time when they have nothing to do. The business has been made for a long time.

Chunxiang Pavilion, the best brothel in Yuying, is brightly lit every day. The gate of the brothel is surrounded by thick cotton curtains, and the best carbon rods are burned inside. The singing girl has a gentle voice, delicious snacks, and the brothel girl who accompanies her is caring and pleasant. If you want to take a bath, there is hot water at all times. Despite the high cost, wealthy households in the county town or business travelers stranded in fish camps are also willing to come here for entertainment.

Of course, occasionally there will be some fun to watch.

Just like this time, in the Chunxiang Pavilion, a lively scene is happening. A woman in a padded jacket led several big men and dragged a drunk young man out of a woman's room in the building. The drunk young man refused to leave, and the two sides almost scolded each other in the building.

Similar scenes of "catching rape" are not uncommon in brothels. But to be honest, if you really want to cast lots, it means that the woman herself also needs some background, and in the conversation between the two, others can also tell that the two sides are not husband and wife. Everyone in the hall watched the play with great interest and talked a lot.

The drunk young man dragged the handrail downstairs and struggled furiously: "I'm not your husband! I'm not your husband! You're just my sister! Why do you care about me! Why do you care about me? Let go of me, I'm going back to drink!"

The man was playing tricks and shouting indiscriminately. The woman walking in front was wearing a padded jacket, so bloated that she couldn't see much of her figure, but her face was still pretty good. At this time, her eyes trembled with anger. Facing the rear, he only said, "Drag him out!" The two big men accompanying him dragged the man and struggled all the way downstairs.

The man grabbed everything he could, or simply lay down on the ground, struggling and shouting: "I won't go! Why do you do this! I'm your brother! The eldest brother is the father! Now I'm the biggest in the family! You You lose money, sooner or later you are not a Lou family member, why do you care about me! I will marry you! I will marry you-brothers, this is my sister, I will marry her! Who will give me today Pay for the drink and I'll marry her to someone! Don't drag me—"

This remark made everyone in the building burst into laughter, and someone immediately laughed, but it seemed that the woman's backstage was not simple. Someone in the building whispered and said that this woman came from out of town to do business, and she had something to do with Chen Hu, who was a black and white eater here at Yuying. She had been stranded for several days. Shandong is originally a mixture of black and white, and it is also because of Chen Tiger's background that this woman is likely to arrest people in this Chunxiang Pavilion.

"This brother, my sister wants to marry, we can't control it..."

"But it's really not good for my sister to take care of my brother's romantic affairs, haha..."

Ordinary women are inevitably embarrassed when they are teased like this. Although the woman in front of her seems to have seen the big scene, her eyes are still reddish while she gritted her teeth. She went downstairs and put a silver note in the hand of the maid, saying accuse. The shouts of the men behind him became more and more intense.

"I don't want to go... Did you hear it! Lou Shuwan! You're crazy - I'm the smartest! Let me go back to drink! I won't go with you! You go your way, I'll pass by me The one-plank bridge! You lunatic! You think you're amazing if you kill... don't you! You don't understand..."

"Speak louder!" The man seemed to say something like "killing someone", and the woman turned around abruptly and drank. When everyone heard this kind of thing, although they were slightly taken aback, it was not surprising. Let's not say that the man didn't make it clear, even if he did make it clear, given the mixed black and white situation in Shandong, he could have a relationship with Chen Huo. How can there be any good stubble. It was just after hearing this sentence, no one laughed anymore. There were merchants coming and going in this area, there were martial arts heroes, and there were serious criminals in the green forest. Those who gathered and scattered would be left behind in a few days.

After walking out of Chunxiang Pavilion, the wind and snow hit her face, the woman wiped the tears from her face and walked in front. The man in the back struggled all the way, saying that she was not from Lou's family. When she came to the place where the two carriages were parked on the side of the road, the woman turned around abruptly.

"Yeah! I'm not Lou's family! But you are! Look at what your Lou family looks like now! Lou Shuheng! You are the last man of the Lou family. What do you look like now?"

Now here are the brothers and sisters of the Lou family who were displaced after the city of Hangzhou was broken.

"Me?" The younger sister's rebuke was severe, the swaying Lou Shuheng tried his best to stand firm, waved away the man who was pulling him and supporting him, and laughed madly, "I'm a smart person! That's what I look like. , because I'm a smart person! If you want to... have a good time and have fun! You... you are a lunatic! Lou Shuwan, look at what you are doing..."

In the midst of the snowstorm, Lou Shuwan looked at him and said word by word, "I'm asking Lou to stand up! I... I'm preparing for revenge for Daddy and Big Brother..."

"Hahaha, revenge." Lou Shuheng swayed and laughed, then shook his head, "You want revenge, I don't want it! You lunatic... You haven't seen it clearly, you can't take revenge at all, even if you didn't get revenge in Hangzhou. See clearly, you should see it clearly when you get here! What revenge! All Liangshan is dead! You want revenge, what... You think you are very powerful when you kill your husband, you... You just killed your husband, and you don't care about him at all. I can see clearly, why didn't you kill me... "

Lou Shuheng's voice gradually decreased, Lou Shuwan stood there staring at him, her eyes were bloodshot, she gritted her teeth and said, "If you weren't my brother, I would have killed you already... "

"Haha, yes. I'm sorry for you, I can't even feel sorry for him. When I was escaping, I was fascinated. I was about to starve to death. I was fascinated. I shouldn't have you in exchange. food…”

"you shut up!"

"Oh." Lou Shuheng smiled nervously, "If you don't like it, I won't say it. But...I can see clearly. Lou Shuwan, you can't avenge this, and I won't avenge you either. Because You have no heart at all…”

"To shut up!"

"You have no heart at all..."

"To shut up-"

A slap in the face sounded on Lou Shuheng's face. Lou Shuheng staggered two steps to the side and sat on the ground beside the wheel of the carriage. A jug of wine came, opened it to drink, Lou Shuwan rushed over, kicked him according to his heart, and then kicked him again.

"Don't drink, brother—"

She rushed up and punched and kicked Lou Shuheng for a while. In winter, she was wearing thick clothes. Lou Shuwan didn't have much strength. , just messing up his coat. Lou Shuheng is simply a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water. Lou Shuwan stood there and looked at him for a moment, and finally instructed the person next to him, "Take him back to the inn."

Lou Shuheng was taken into a carriage. When the carriage was about to drive, Lou Shuwan raised her face and said, "Brother, let's go back and talk."

Lou Shuheng's head drooped on the carriage window, and he whispered in a trance, "I want to go to Chunxiang Pavilion..."

The carriage left, Lou Shuwan stood for a while, then reached out and pressed her forehead. When she turned around, she saw the jug that had been knocked into the snow, so she walked over and picked it up. The wine inside had been spilled a lot, but after all, she stood, raised the jug and gulped a few sips to herself, with a blush on her face. Said with the remaining followers around him: "Let's go... Let's get things done with Tiger King... After it's done, it'll be fine..."

The group walked towards the remaining carriage. When the carriage started, it was a small village not far from Yuying County. In the dim firewood room, a pair of eyes lifted up, looking at the snowflakes falling from the window. The eyes belonged to a man with a large skeleton. At this time, he was sloppy and looked unusually thin. He was lying in a messy pile of firewood. The face is full of scars, and half of its appearance has been destroyed. Therefore, no one can see the sinner's brand that was once stabbed on that cheek.

Not far from the stove, a modestly dressed peasant woman coaxed her two-year-old child while adding firewood to the stove to add some warmth.

She was talking ramble: "... When I picked you up, it was because of your tall stature. Even if you are not a strongman in the green forest, if you are healthy, you can help to do something. Who knows that it took so much effort to cure you, You've become a fool, sigh... money loser, if you continue like this, I'll drive you away in the spring of next year... What you do is always look at the window, I know, you're cold, right, wait for me Help you get something to block..."

She is a widow in this village. She has some beauty. When her husband's family was there, her family was well-off, but since her husband's death, everything went downhill.

A few months ago, she rescued a man who had been washed ashore by water, with what appeared to be gunshot wounds. She thought carefully, instead of letting the things left by her husband's family be separated by the rest of the relatives, it is better to be close to a strong man and take great pains to cure him. In a word, she didn't know how to resist being beaten and scolded, which made her feel that the deal was really not worth it, but the weather was getting colder, and she couldn't just drive a fool out like this, so she had to settle him in this woodshed, some kind of To a certain extent, it also left him to fend for himself.

But this kind of thing actually brought her a lot of trouble. After all, the things in the husband's family belonged to the husband's family. In the past, some relatives wanted to take it away, but they had to hide it. At this time, she took in a man, and these days There were more people gossiping, and she became more assertive, which often made her quarrel with each other.

During the quarrel, the man was in the woodshed, listening quietly. When the widow came back from the quarrel, she often had to complain about him for a while: "If it wasn't for the cold weather, I would have driven you out..."

When spring comes next year, there will be a silent farmer in the village with half of his face injured. Because of his tall stature and many scars and scars on his body, although the villagers gradually know that he is easy to bully, no one really cares about him. Overdoing it, many people think that he may have some background - perhaps the king of the mountain on such and such mountain. This kind of thing doesn't matter here, but no one has the intention to report it to the official.

When he went to the fields, widows with children would bring things over, and sometimes they would watch by the fields. There is a lot of gossip in the village, she is not afraid of being ugly, she has a pungent personality, and occasionally quarrels with people. When the things left by her husband's family were gradually divided up, the two of them slept on the same bed. That was the fall of the second year...

The trajectory of fate is like countless chaotic strings, which sometimes intersect. In early December of the tenth year of Jinghan, Su Wenyu and Wang Shanyue left Shandong and returned to Bianliang.

The experience of managing the camp for a few months has made Su Wenyu suffer an unspeakable baptism. At this time, the temperament of the whole person has changed. As for Wang Shanyue, he had a little friction with Zhujiazhuang recently, and even made Zhu Biao beat him firmly.

The reason is that he became the third party in the marriage between Hu Sanniang and Zhu Biao...

After beating him, Zhu Biao asked him to tell Ning Yi, "After the New Year, I will go to the capital."

In the capital at this time, near the end of the year, it is bustling...
