No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

Chapter 960 The Old Lady's Chatter

What the hell is Wu Guotai? Ou Mengmeng woke up and had been lying there for a long time.

Ou Mengmeng realized that she should look back on her life from Penny's perspective. It was not Penny's regret, but old Foster's regret.

She didn't regret not telling old Foster, but young Foster couldn't face it. You know, Obliviate can be self-repaired, as long as there is some external stimulation. Think about the old traveler wizard who was hurt by Lockhart, didn't he recover? When Ou Mengmeng cast the spell, she was not yet an adult, so she couldn't really practice the spell as proficiently as Lockhart.

Besides, she didn't take away the memory thread, so it wouldn't cause any permanent damage to Little Foster. She actually just gave Little Foster and Old Foster an excuse. Whether to restore or not, the initiative is actually in their own hands.

Almost half a century has passed, and Old Foster has died, and Little Foster has not waited for him to face reality. Ou Mengmeng thinks it's okay, but thinking about it again, she feels that maybe she is still considering these people from an outsider's perspective. Maybe Old Foster still hopes that he can forgive Little Foster. I hope that in a world without him, they can understand each other.

On Christmas Day, on the streets of London, little Foster wore a red Santa Claus suit and gave candies to children on the street. This has been his hobby for nearly ten years. In his words, it seems that only this way can he live up to his age.

Eighty years old is considered an old man in the Muggle world. He is tall and strong, so he doesn't even need to be glued with white glue. He just needs a slight trimming before Christmas.

"Merry Christmas!" The old man was carrying a red cloth bag and bending over with a smile on his face to hand out candies. In return he received smiling faces.

"Thank you!" a little blonde girl said in a soft voice.

Little Foster was stunned for a moment, handed over the candy cane, and then whispered, "Merry Christmas to you."

When he finally finished walking the streets he was responsible for and was walking back slowly with his tired body, a woman who looked to be in her fifties and wearing a well-dressed coat was looking at the postcards by the light beside the postcard basket in front of her house. She was wearing a fur hat and her back was straight, which seemed a bit out of place with the small basket.

"How can I help you?" Little Foster greeted politely.

"Can I have a cup of tea?" Ou Mengmeng raised her head and looked at the old man in red clothes.

Little Foster looked into her eyes for a long moment, "Penny!"

That day, they drank a cup of tea at Little Foster's house. The two didn't say anything that would dampen the mood. They just wished each other a Merry Christmas, and then Ou Mengmeng said goodbye.

Then she woke up and found herself in the world of Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The character she traveled through was Wu Guotai. This was the closest age to her previous one. But what did this unfortunate identity mean?
If you ask her how she was sure it was the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it was because the character she wore was Wu Guotai, who did not appear in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. So, she knew immediately that she had entered the literary world of Luo Guanzhong.

Besides, "Dream of Red Mansions" and "Harry Potter" are both literary works. As for "Siheyuan", she has not read it, but the characters are very stereotyped, so it is unlikely that she will travel into history at this moment. She should be traveling through literary works.

Is this a punishment for her? As a primary school principal, she was only interested in these literary works and never really appreciated them as works. So if she wanted to live to see her children, she had to read these stories carefully? Ou Mengmeng felt that she was wronged!
However, she was a little depressed and thought, is this the place she deserves to be? To be honest, she watched the animation of "Journey to the West" with her two sons. She especially liked the nursery rhyme "White Dragon Horse, Hoof Facing West". Every time she heard that song, she thought of her two sons who were so cute. But because her sons liked it, she really watched it with them several times. She really didn't read the novel.

She really finished reading the first volume of "Water Margin". Why did she like the first volume? Because the first volume was almost a biography of the characters. She felt comfortable with each character. Each character was cute in his or her own way. Then, these cute little people rebelled against the government and went to Liangshan.

When they gathered at Liangshan, she didn't like it anymore, because it was just from one cage to another. But that's how things are in the world. There is no such thing as a paradise. It's just self-deception.

This is also the deep reason why Chinese people love to compete, because they always know why they compete? Because they want to have the right to speak!
What is the Peach Blossom Spring? It is just a place that you can count.

As mentioned before, no matter how educated the Chinese are, they can all say something about the story. Many people, without even reading a single page, can still find nutritive points to absorb from various places.

When it came to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, she could only sigh again. Again, she is just an elementary school teacher. In the previous part, she went to a fairy tale world, and now she is in the world of elves. Do you think it is appropriate?

The main thing is, the person she is wearing. The protagonist of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is the Shu Han group, the Eastern Wu is the control group, and the Cao Wei is the real villain. These two families have been vilified quite badly.

The person she traveled to this time was also quite awkward. And there were only a few episodes in total. It was even weirder to have her travel here than to go to the Siheyuan. What was her purpose?
Wu Guotai was the stepmother and aunt of Sun Quan, the ruler of Wu. It is a bit far-fetched to say that she was Sun Quan's biological aunt, and legally speaking, she was Sun Quan's concubine mother.

As I just said, Romance of the Three Kingdoms was written by Luo Guanzhong in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty based on Records of the Three Kingdoms and some other novels. In the final analysis, it is a novel, a literary work.

In literary works, there must be some comedy elements, some dramatic conflicts, and some tools to buffer the characters. Wu Guotai, designed here, is such a tool.

The character is the younger sister of Mrs. Wu in the original "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". The sisters married Sun Jian together. Mrs. Wu gave birth to a son and a daughter here. The prototype is the original concubine Ding of Sun Jian, who gave birth to a son and a daughter, Sun Lang and Sun Ren.

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, before Mrs. Wu passed away, Sun Quan and his brothers were asked to be filial to Mrs. Wu, and every time she appeared, she actually had a function.

For example, in Chapters 43 and 44 of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, when Sun Quan was undecided about whether to surrender to Cao, little Wu Guotai said, "My late sister's last words said: Bofu (Sun Ce) said before his death: If you are in doubt about internal affairs, ask Zhang Shao; if you are in doubt about external affairs, ask Zhou Yu.' Why don't you ask Gongjin now?" Her identity and position are shown here.

After that, it was Liu Bei's turn to marry a girl, and Wu Guotai's role was to facilitate it. Later, Sun Quan tricked his sister into returning to Eastern Wu, and used Wu Guotai's serious illness as an excuse to prevent Sun Shangxiang from entering Shu with Liu Bei, separating the two lovers. This laid the groundwork for Sun Shangxiang to commit suicide by jumping into the river after learning that Liu Bei had died.

This is a functional character, and Ou Mengmeng is angry. If she is dressed as this character, what can she do? (End of this chapter)
