Records of the Lost Cases of Helaitang in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 57 Could it be that a thousand-mile marriage is tied by a thin thread?
The other three people looked at Yue'er intently. Wang Heng was sweating and sighed: "It's like we are living in a fog, constantly looking for the truth."

Wang Cai rolled his eyes at Yue'er and said, "It's exciting."

Yue'er said: "Everyone in the Dengyun class has heard that Master Huiyun is the uncle of the Wang family. Who would have guessed that Master Huiyun has an affair with Mr. Yuming."

Everyone had the same expression, their mouths looked like they had swallowed an egg.

"It's impossible. I've been in the Dengyun class for a long time, so why can't I see it at all?" Yueting said in disbelief.

Wang Heng and Wang Cai looked at each other and turned pale.

"Could it be?" Wang Heng asked and answered quietly to himself, his voice trembling. What is the truth?
"Scared, sister, we are so sentimental that we love you so much." Yue'er could not help but shudder as this joke reverberated in her mind.

Yue'er lamented: "It was a day at the end of May. The sun was too hot, and we couldn't wait for rain. Mr. Zhao told everyone to take a rest in the afternoon to avoid heat stroke. When I had some free time, I shook my cattail leaf fan and played. During the sleep, I didn't expect that I slept so deeply that it was already dusk when I woke up. I usually glanced at Master Huiyun secretly, but then I found that Master Huiyun was nowhere to be seen. He stayed there until after dinner. After washing the cups and mopping the floor, Master Huiyun didn't show up. I felt strange, so I used an excuse to ask the little girl Suo'er if Master Huiyun was out. Suo'er said that Master Huiyun didn't order the car to be prepared. Prepare the sedan chair, most likely where you can enjoy the cool weather.”

"After I finished my work every day, and no one was there to supervise me, I wandered around the house until it was completely dark. I happened to walk through the Waikou Courtyard, and a low sound of music came to my ears. Liutang is the place where the Wang family entertains their close relatives and friends. Mr. Yuming lives now. Mr. Yuming also comes to Tangliyuan to talk about operas in his spare time. I didn't know that he can also sing a few verses. I gently pushed the door of the courtyard, and the door opened. The handle was inserted from the inside, so with a little effort, I jumped up to the eaves out of curiosity. The place where the music came from was the main hall of Shenliu Hall. I moved three tiles from above the beam of the west window, and the light shone on it. I couldn’t see clearly, so I had to crawl on the roof.”

"Scared, sister, we are in love and love you so much."

A singing voice came from the room.

"I saw a white curtain under the eaves, and the shadow of the lamp shone on the curtain. It was the silhouette of a young boy, with his hands behind his back, babbling and singing."

"Flowers accompany me every day, occupying all the spring sunshine in the small garden. The wild flowers are waiting for me to see each other, and I have been lingering for a long time. Unexpectedly, I was so stunned that my heart was drawn, and it could be that a thousand-mile marriage is tied by a thread."

"This is a twist in "Begonia Pavilion". The person behind the curtain must be Mr. Yuming. Suddenly another beauty appeared on the curtain, holding her chin and singing a tune."

"I was wandering around the middle gate with my hand on my chin, making it difficult for people to decide whether to go or not. It's hard to let go of this enemy. So I learned from Wenjun, who thought about it and made people's hearts tighter, regardless of whether the master felt comfortable or not."

"This voice is actually Huiyun. I am with her every day, so I can naturally hear it. At this time, the silhouette of Xiaosheng came up to meet me and sang: "Sister, stretch your eyebrows, end the spring sorrow, dry up the tear stains, and wait. Sitting in a gentle cage. "

"At this time, the beauty's silhouette disappeared from the curtain. I heard Master Huiyun say: I'm tired, I won't play shadow puppets today."

"Master Huiyun walked out from behind the curtain and leaned on the bamboo rafter. When he saw a pot of bright and lovely apricots on the table, he stretched out his slender jade fingers and peeled the skin of the apricots into an inverted lotus shape. He held it and handed it to Yu Ming. gentlemen."

Wang Heng nodded and said with deep understanding: "Looking at it this way, Master Huiyun and Mr. Yuming do have an affair. There is a concubine in my family, Mrs. Hong, who was originally a flower girl in a brothel. She also has such a skill and makes my family beautiful. The master can make you smile, but my wife can't. She often says it's a coquettish trick."

Everyone knew that his family's population was complicated and difficult to describe, so it was inconvenient to answer.Yue'er continued: "Mr. Yuming picked up Xingzi, then recited the script and said: "Sister, I'll wait for you to be patient and gentle for a while." "

"Master Huiyun ignored him and stood in front of the scroll painting in the middle hall. After admiring it for a while, he seemed to say casually: The uncle of the Wang family has agreed to my request."

"Mr. Yuming was so panicked that he almost staggered and said: What did you answer to?"

Huiyun said: "The uncle of the Wang family allows me to apply for a household registration for a girl from a squire's family."

Mr. Yuming said: "What about the household registration? Chen Yu doesn't want to take any responsibility."

Huiyun said: "Seeing that I was desperate, he begged me hard, but he didn't want me to get nothing, so he agreed. It's been two years since Lu's death, so it's only right that you renew the marriage contract."

Mr. Yuming lowered his head for a moment and said, "Huiyun, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run. As you know, there are four generations in my family living under one roof, and the rules are very strict."

Huiyun snorted coldly and said: "You have said these words for ten years. No matter how stupid you are, you should understand." She took a deep breath and said: "Zuoji Tanyangzi, he was the king of the time. Harmful Wind, Wuling is the leader, Gu Yue is a solitary peak. Tell me, this is the reason in your mind."

Master Huiyun's words were not from the play in "Begonia Pavilion", and I didn't know what they meant or what the words were. But when I saw Mr. Yuming seemed to have been stabbed in the foot, his face changed and he said: "You really Really ignorant."

Huiyun leaned over slightly and said with a smile: "Not only that, I am fully aware of all the tricks you teach. You might as well go and see if the certificate you hid in a secret place is still there."

Mr. Yu Ming was trembling all over and said, "What are you talking about? Could it be that you are dying."

Master Huiyun laughed loudly, with an indescribable coldness.

Mr. Yuming is really a person. After a brief guess, he immediately changed his face and said warmly: "Three matchmakers and six rites require a proper person. If I go back to my hometown in Yunchuan County, I will be far away. Fortunately, there are still people in Gusu City. Dear relatives, please let me go once and ask for help from my elder brother Rui, my elder sister-in-law Rui is the most efficient in doing things."

Master Huiyun also came over softly, looked at him and said: "Tomorrow is the anniversary of my late mother's death. I have to pay homage to her every year. This year there is a lot of inconvenience in the Wang family. I will set up an incense case at Yuebo Bridge tomorrow. If you don't Let’s do it together.”

After saying that, he lifted his feet and walked away. Mr. Yuming raised his arm and gave him a weak support. Master Huiyun looked back sweetly. If I hadn't heard the previous words, I wouldn't have seen a beautiful couple in front of me.Such excellent singing and composition is really chilling.

After Huiyun left, I was just about to turn over from the roof, but I saw Mr. Yuming bolting the door instead, rummaging through boxes and cabinets, pacing back and forth in the room, and then wrote a letter, scribbling, and wasted a lot of money. It took a while to get ready, so I asked a boy to take it out.I was going to chase the boy for fear of making any noise, but when I cautiously returned to the ground, the boy was gone.

Yueting was surprised: "In this case, Mr. Yuming already knew that Master Huiyun was going to Yuebo Pavilion to worship the moon the next day. Then wouldn't he be more suspected of murdering Huiyun?"
