Chapter 37

Later, the plum blossoms were full of empty branches, and the willows were green.

Tossed and turned for more than two years.

Spring came early this year, and the cold air was about to fade away, and the vines in the backyard of Shu's Inn began to sprout new leaves.Shu Tang squatted under the grape trellis and counted the wine jars, the strong smell of wine wafted for miles.No more, no less, 27 altars.

The carriages and horses were rumbling outside the house, and the horse driver called out loudly "little treasurer", and Shu Tang agreed.Opening the small side door, several people came in and moved the wine jar, Shu Tang chatted with the horseman as usual, and sent him out of the alley.

The horse driver's surname is Cao Mingsheng. He is over thirty years old and has already married.Because the restaurant he worked in had business dealings with Shu's Inn, and after meeting several times, he became acquainted with Shu's Xiaotang.He called Shu Tang, the shopkeeper.Shu Tang called him Brother Cao.

At the entrance of Tanghua Alley, Cao Sheng slapped his forehead and said angrily, "Look at my memory." After speaking, he took out the next wine list from his pocket, and said with a chuckle: "The business in the building is good. Next time, seven more altars will be added, for a total of 34 altars, and I will thank you little shopkeeper."

With an "hey" sound, Shu Tang folded the wine list properly and put it in his pocket.

Cao Sheng looked at Shu Tang, and saw that her temples were as white as snow, her eyes were as black as ink, and a red cinnabar flowed freely.

It's really the eighteenth change of the female university.

Cao Sheng endured it but couldn't hold it back, and finally said: "Little shopkeeper, my old lady told you about your relatives again, you should go and see anyway? That kid was awarded a scholar a few years ago, but now he has a small family. The customer is also running an inn, which is not bad.”

Shu Tang was taken aback, lowered her head and shook her head, said: "No." After a while, she whispered again: "Thank you Brother Cao, I really don't need to trouble you."

This is not the first time Cao Sheng has proposed marriage to Shu Tang.A few times ago, after Xiaotang of the Shu family declined, Cao Sheng thought it was because the man was not good enough.Recently, he managed to drag his wife to find a decent family, but Shu Tang still refused.

Cao Sheng has also heard a little about the past of Xiaotang in the Shu family.It is said that Shu Tang was originally an abandoned woman.More than two years ago, a young man from Jinghua City said in front of everyone that he wanted to marry her.Even the dowry was prepared at the end of the Shu family, who would have thought that something happened at the son's brother's house, without any real reason, he left Shu Tang and left.After going there for more than two years, there was no news.

However, the above rumors are also true.If you gather the gossip that is rumored in the streets and alleys together, you will have something to speculate about.

It is said that Shu Tang is the daughter of a prostitute, and the young master is a son of a rich family. He said that marrying her is just a moment of passion, so how could he really marry her.It is also said that Shu Tang looks honest, but he is skittish in his bones.Back then when the son was still in Jinghua City, she hooked up with Ruan Feng, the son of the sixth prince.Brother Gongzi was so angry that he abandoned her.

Gossip is unreliable, and Cao Sheng didn't believe it either.After getting in touch with Xiaotang from the Shu family, I feel more and more that she is an honest girl.In the wine business, if she took three more copper coins from others, she would rush to withdraw and suffer a little loss, but it didn't matter.After getting acquainted with each other, Cao Sheng learned that Shu Tang and Ruan Feng were righteous brothers and sisters. Although they were not related by blood, they were not as popular as others said.

Knowing this level, Cao Sheng meddled in his own business and wanted to marry Shu Tang.One is because she feels sorry for this honest little girl, and the other is that she feels that she is already twenty years old, and if she doesn't marry again, she really can't get married.

The emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuchs are in a hurry about this matter.Seeing that Shu Tang refused again, Cao Sheng couldn't help asking: "Little shopkeeper, do you think you don't like it? Or don't you want to marry? If you don't like it, it would be better if we find a household. If you don't want to marry, you can do it yourself." There must be a reason, right?"

Shu Tang was taken aback when he heard this, hesitated for a while, and said: "I don't look down on anyone."

Choose one of the two, either A or B.

Cao Sheng suddenly realized.If you don't want to marry, then you have someone in your heart and can't let go.If the rumors in the market are true, there are only two people involved with Xiaotang of the Shu family, the elder brother two years ago, and Ruan Feng, the son of the sixth prince.

Both of them are big families, and both of them can't do it.

Thinking of this, Cao Sheng couldn't help displaying a bit of the majesty of the elders, and comforted him: "Female college students should get married, and every girl understands this. In fact, let's get married. If you don't want to do anything, just try to be down-to-earth. When you get old, you will have children." There are women, and there are wives who support each other. Others who are too tall can't afford it, let alone live together in the future. If there are too many rules, it will definitely be unhappy, don't you think so?"

Shu Tang nodded, lowered his eyelids, and did not speak.

Cao Sheng knew that he didn't talk to her, and because he knew that Shu Tang was filial, he made indirect remarks: "Take a step back and say that you don't want to marry. In the future, when your father gets old, you must have a son-in-law to take care of you. A daughter is caring, but she can't compare My son is strong and able to work."

Shu Tang was taken aback when he heard this.After thinking for a while, she said honestly: "Well, Brother Cao, I will change the person you mentioned tomorrow...Look."

Cao Sheng was relieved, and he grinned and said, "No rush, no hurry, in two days' time, on the first day of March, you will come to Jiangxi Inn to settle the money for this month. With the money, you can also buy two new suits. Clothes and go on a blind date."

After saying this, Cao Sheng raised his whip and led the horse away.

The sky is light, with a few clouds floating.The climate of spring in the southern country is a bit like thick autumn, with flowers flying beside the road and horseshoes rattling.

Shu Tang looked at the carriage that was drifting away, his mind wandered, and he couldn't help but recall that year.

That year, the same day, the same scenery.Outside the alley of Yunfu, she hid behind the stone wall alone, watching Yun Chenya get into the carriage, and watching the carriage and horses go far away, disappearing into the world.

She chased a few steps, then stopped.At a loss, he recalled a sentence Yun Chenya once said.

He said, little silly girl, if I leave in the future, don't chase me out.

Until the time of parting, Shu Tang still believed in him, even though she was standing alone in the autumn, her heart was empty, only the sound of sobbing wind filled the sky.

There is no snow in winter in the south, but there is the fragrance of cold plums.

Shu Tang watched the white plum blossoms bloom on the branches, and the next spring the tree was full of pears like snow again.Xia Yang Rihui poured her head down, one day, she saw that the peaches five miles away were ripe, as before, she left a copper plate under the tree, planted peaches and ran home in a panic.But when I got home, I didn't know who to send the peaches in my hand.

No one would sit in the corner and shake a fan, no one would say hello to Xia Guang, no one would take the peaches and put them around in their hands, neither eating nor speaking, only smiling wantonly.

The lovesickness was deep in her bones, but she didn't know that it was lovesickness.He resentfully collected the peaches and put them on the stone table in the backyard. Looking at them, his eyes turned red.

So there was that night.

There was wind and rain that night, and the skins of the peaches wrinkled after being left for a long time.Shu Tang suddenly felt sad.She asked Shu Sanyi why he waited for so long and did not see Guan Yun coming back.

Shu Sanyi was stupid at the time, because of Shu Tang's determination, he was also unexpected.

Shu Sanyi was stunned for a long time, then chuckled twice, and suddenly laughed at himself, "Daughter, you really look like me."

Then he said: "Daughter, don't wait for him. Yunguan is a wealthy family, and we are not on the same level as us."

Shu Tang cautiously asked: "Father, do officials Yun think I'm not good enough?" After a while, she muttered again: "Actually, why not take me away? I'll follow him and just be a girl. I Now I really don't, I really don't have the extravagant hope to marry him."

Shu Tang was obedient and sensible since childhood, and Shu Sanyi had never really gotten angry with her.But that day, he had a serious face and asked, "Is it because he doesn't come back, and you live your life so ignorantly? Is it because he doesn't come back, and you will only think about giving it to me for the next few decades?" Being a girl? Does it mean that if he doesn't come back, you feel that you are not good enough and should be despised by others?"

That was the last time Shu Tang pronounced the words "Yunguanren".For the next two years, it seemed that this person had never appeared in her life, and was never thought of again.

In fact, in two years, the sun and the moon are not enough to change, and the universe is not enough to turn around, but in this bustling world, it is enough to have a few memorable things happen.

Let's talk about the battle between Shenzhou Daying and Wo Kuo Kingdom in the Northern Wilderness, and both sides suffered losses. Thousands of soldiers lost their lives, and even Ying Jingfeng, who was actually the second prince, also died in this battle.

However, by coincidence, Shen Mei, the daughter of the Minister of the Household Department, Shen Mei, a beauty in Yongjing City who was famous in Daying, was found by the eldest prince Ying Jingxuan in the northern wilderness of the battlefield.

Shen Mei fell asleep for more than a month.After being carried back to Yongjing, she woke up just now, and cried out that she wanted to marry Yingjingxuan, saying that if she couldn't marry her, she would die.It is true that Ying Jingxuan's appearance is astonishing as heaven, and he is also capable of both civil and military skills, but there is really no reason why Shen Mei is so embarrassing to climb high.What was even more bizarre was that the eldest prince, who had always been unpredictable and had a high vision, actually agreed after hearing about this incident.

Thus, a beautiful marriage was made.

The eldest prince married the eldest concubine, and the whole world celebrated together, finally diluting the shadow of the war in the Northern Wilderness.However, this Shen Mei is really a strange person, after only three days of being married to Ying Jingxuan, he suddenly jumped into the water and drowned himself.

This incident was originally sad, but because it happened so suddenly, the civil and military officials of the whole court, including the emperor, were at a loss and could not understand it.It wasn't until the next day that Ying Jingxuan appeared in the court wearing a mourning dress solemnly, that the courtiers realized that his wife had died, and hurried forward to comfort him.

Because Daying's courtiers are all bad embryos, it is very unlawful to comfort others.One or two sentences are always inseparable from the meaning of "the old ones will not go away, and the new ones will not come", and "the small disasters will be eliminated by the destruction of wealth, and the major disasters will be eliminated by the destruction of individuals".If someone else heard these comforting words, he would have already vomited blood.

However, the eldest prince of Shenzhou Daying has never been a mortal.

He folded his fan, and weeping towards the surroundings, he said: "At first, I was very sad in my heart, but after listening to your comfort, I feel much better."

He said so, and others believed it.Unexpectedly, a few days later, Ying Jingxuan suddenly claimed that he was sick and would not go to court, and that he was depressed and sick from grief, and that the end of his life would be approaching.

This year, the legendary Jing Feng died like a legend.Emperor Zhaohe's knees are extremely weak, except for Ying Jingxuan who is well-known, the rest of the princes are so young that they have never even seen erotic pictures.Emperor Zhaohe had no choice but to follow his son's wishes and said, "Then how can you get better?"

At that time, Ying Jingxuan coughed repeatedly, almost coughing up his lungs.

After doing a lot of acting, he said: "My son, my son... I'm afraid it won't get better, but—"

The focus is on this "but".He also said, "But the world is so big and the mountains and rivers are majestic. As the son and grandson of the emperor, I have not been able to see everything. If the emperor allows, I am willing to go to all parts of the country to have a look, take a walk, and experience the whole world. experience..."

On the second day, Yingjingxuan "turned back to the light", carried a dozen banknotes in high spirits, packed lightly, and went for a stroll around the country.

This time, besides Sikong Xing, there were two more people with him.One is a courtier who is proficient in medical skills, aliased as Bai Guibai Butler.The second is the cool-looking female shadow guard named Situ Xue.

Originally, Ying Jingxuan didn't need to take Situ Xue with him, but if there were three people in a party, and all three were men, it would really make people feel wrong.

There is another reason that is not easy to mention, but it is a private matter of children.A year earlier, Ying Jingxuan was in Nanjun Jinghua City, and he promised Sikong Xing that when he returned to Yongjing City, he would surely find his sweetheart Shen Mei as his wife.Clinker Yingjingxuan indeed got Shen Mei, but he got it for himself.It's okay to plot for yourself. After three days of plotting, I went diving.

Regardless of whether Shen Mei really drowned.This matter is a hurdle in Sikong Xing's heart, and he will never get over it.He is still vigorous and resolute in handling affairs now, when encountering other affairs, he is unwilling to talk to Ying Jingxuan.Ying Jingxuan admired Sikong Xing's ability, and even more rare his true temperament, so this trip, not to mention taking him along, also added a new female shadow guard to be his partner, in order to ease the atmosphere.

However, a group of four people, although they are traveling in mountains and rivers, they really have serious business to do.

Yingchao wandered in eighteen prefectures for more than a year.On this day, Ying Jingxuan squinted his eyes to look at the sky, and found that the coldest winter had passed, and the warm sun was able to melt the snow.

With a "click", the fan hit in his hand.Ying Jingxuan said: "Sikong, how long has it been since we went to Nanjun?"

As usual, Sikong Xing had a true temper, stood aside and ignored him.

Butler Bai Guibai is a weakling, he can't afford to offend this master, so he quickly picked up the conversation and said: "According to my subject... According to what this old slave has heard, the Eldest Young Master has left Nanjun Jinghua for more than two years."

"It's been more than two years..." Caressing the fan, looking up at the clear sky: "I don't know that little silly girl..."

An unpredictable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, Ying Jingxuan suddenly "swiped" his fan, shook it three times, and said, "Go and see."

Looking from a distance, the town is still covered with snow, and it is dark at four o'clock in the vast expanse of whiteness.Looking closer, the first point is walking recklessly, and the rear three points are staggeringly following.

It was a person who turned into the legendary Cloud Tail Wolf again, took his newly assembled think tank, and went to the south again to do harm to the common people.
