Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Although the Wu family's family name is very noble, Wu Shigong's status in the family is very low.How low is it?That is to say, it is a little bit better than the domestic slaves at home.Even in some aspects of treatment, it is not as good as those favored housekeepers and maids.

Wu Shigong's father, Wu Weizhong, was handsome in appearance and pursued culture. He had a refined temperament all over his body, which was quite in line with the social mainstream of the Ming Dynasty that "everything is inferior, only reading is high".His sons are basically handsome and handsome, only Wu Shigong looks different, with a thick and strong figure.Of course, this does not mean that he is not his father's breed, but that his appearance and body mostly follow his mother's.

In fact, Wu Shigong's appearance is not bad because of Wu Weizhong's inheritance to some extent. In modern times, he can be regarded as a hard-core niche, with the appearance of an action star, but his appearance and figure do not conform to the aesthetics of the Ming Dynasty.People at that time thought that only lowly traffickers could look like him.Not to mention the shortcomings in appearance, but also because Wu Shigong's background is very low.As the saying goes, a mother is more expensive because of her son, but on the other hand, if the mother's status is lowered, the son's status will not be as high as that.

On a certain day 18 years ago, Wu Weizhong, the Marquis of Gongshun, visited a friend's house and stayed overnight after getting drunk.A few months later, a friend sent the pregnant girl over to Wu Weizhong.Seeing this pregnant woman, Wu Weizhong was startled.It wasn't because he suddenly had a child, Wu Weizhong was quite confident in his own firepower, but that rough girl was too ugly, with a thick body and rough appearance.

According to the social atmosphere at that time, it was not uncommon for a guest to be treated with a beautiful maidservant, which could be regarded as an elegant thing.But like Wu Weizhong's behavior this time, it can be said that he was hungry and desperate, and the word of mouth is... There is no need to say anything, everyone can imagine.Anyway, because of the rapid spread of this incident, Wu Weizhong faintly became a joke in the noble circle of the capital, which made Wu Weizhong lose face.It is only with the passage of time that this incident has gradually been forgotten in recent years.But the thorn in Wu Weizhong's heart has already been planted, and no matter what he can't get rid of it.

For Xungui, there is no shortage of wealth and power, and the most important thing in this circle is face.After losing face, Wu Weizhong didn't deny it, and took Wu Shigong and his mother into custody.But Wu Weizhong felt as uncomfortable as swallowing a fly.Maybe he also understands Wu Weizhong's views on him, Wu Shigong's mother is very straightforward, she died of dystocia when giving birth to Wu Shigong, and she left her next son, so she managed to close her eyes and not worry about it.But facing Wu Shigong every day, Wu Weizhong can't be out of sight and out of mind.Therefore, Wu Weizhong basically turned a blind eye to Wu Shigong's attitude.His attitude also determines the attitude of other people in the Wu Mansion towards Wu Shigong.

In life, Wu Weizhong did not treat Wu Shigong badly.Eat and clothe warmly, arrange maids and servants to serve them, and provide them with reading.But there are basically no other benefits.Wu Shigong's position in the entire Wu Family Hou Mansion is also very marginal, and even the courtyard where he lives is closest to where the servants of the Hou Mansion live.The treatment conditions are not even as good as Wu Weizhong's concubine daughters.Not to mention the bullying by his family, even some high-status servants and maids bullied him openly or secretly.

Therefore, although Wu Shigong is tall and big, he grew up in the eyes of ignorance and superciliousness, and he is very taciturn and has a very introverted personality.However, in adversity, Wu Shigong has a fiery fighting heart under his ice-like appearance.Studying - passing the exam and becoming an official - honoring the ancestors and being outstanding, this is Wu Shigong's goal.Especially Wu Shixun, the eldest brother who became a Jinshi, is his idol.From childhood to adulthood, Wu Shigong gave up all the time for entertainment and making friends, and devoted himself to studying hard, firmly believing that he can make up for his weaknesses with diligence and realize his dreams.

But Wu Shigong is really not a material for studying.Except that his family opened the back door for him to get a reputation as a scholar, except that his family got him to study in the Imperial College and be qualified to be a supervisor after graduation, other... I won’t say much.You must know that the Wu family is now a scholarly family. Whether it is the family history, or the Xixi and Qingke raised by the Wu family, it can be said that they are talking and joking. These experts must be very authoritative in the certification of Wu Shigong's reading ability. .But Wu Shigong didn't believe in this evil. He didn't believe in the eyes of these experts, and he firmly believed that he would succeed.Maybe, after all, Wu Shigong was only (false years old) at this time, and the road in life was still very long.Maybe, one day in the future, his brain will suddenly open up.Therefore, Wu Weizhong continued to support Wu Shigong to study.Of course, none of them expected that Wu Shigong's fate had indeed changed, but not because of the opening of his head, but because of the opening of his head.

But a few days ago, there was a big thunderbolt in the clear sky, and his father arranged a marriage for him, marrying him to another rich family, Yangwuhou Xue's family.In fact, his father, Wu Weizhong, is also kind. The contemporary Yangwuhou has only one legitimate daughter, and with Wu Shigong's marriage, he can continue the blood lineage; and Wu Shigong, a bastard with little ability, also has a good home, at least in this life. don't worry.For the two, it is obviously a win-win result.For Wu Shigong personally, he also has a good home.But Wu Shigong didn't think so.

Wu Shigong always thought that he worked very hard, and as long as he worked a little harder, he would have a bright future.But now, this kind of marriage that entered into his wife abruptly destroyed his dream.Even as a son-in-law, he can barely take the scientific examination, but after high school, he will definitely become a joke among scholars and a shame in official circles.It never occurred to him that, based on his ability and the judgment of the scholars around his father, Wu Shigong would never become a member of the scholars and become a pure official.He must have been a little self-indulgent.

But the important thing about marriage is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.According to Wu Shigong's status in the family, it is even more impossible to overturn Wu Weizhong's decision.Wu Shigong, who was full of grievances, could only accept it silently.But yesterday, when Wu Shigong went to the Guozijian to study, there were a few classmates who were also the sons of Guixun, who were more mean-spirited, and laughed at him for marrying. Isn't this adding salt to Wu Shigong's wounds?

In normal times, because of his introverted personality, Wu Shigong would be bullied when he was bullied by them. Most of the time, he kept silent and avoided silently.But at this moment, as if adding fuel to the fire, the honest man lost his temper.At that moment, it was as if the spirit of the ancestor had possessed his body, and the blood of the Mongolian man came up, Wu Shigong swung his fist and hit him.Unfortunately, only half of the souls of the ancestors were possessed, and the blood of the Mongolian man was there, but the fighting and wrestling skills of the Mongolian man were not possessed.Even though he has a relatively burly body, he was beaten to the ground by those classmates.In the chaos, someone kicked him on the head, and Wu Shigong fell into a coma. The classmates who caused the trouble dispersed in a rush, and Wu Shigong, who was unconscious, was also sent back to the teachers and servants of the Imperial College.

Maybe it's because of the serious injury; maybe it's because of excessive grief and anger; maybe it's not possible... Anyway, it just happened to take advantage of the modern Wu Shigong, and he was possessed by time travel.As a result, the current Wu Shigong, except for some memories left behind, everything else is controlled by the one who traveled through.Completely became a brand new Wu Shigong.

After thinking about all this, Wu Shigong (the future Wu Shigong in the article is completely the thinking and behavior of later generations of time travellers) couldn't help curling his lips and thinking: "It seems that the unlucky guy has a very low IQ--he failed in reading; his EQ is very low-- Can’t socialize; the financial quotient is very low—the three-none young man who basically has no property. Like this, what’s wrong with being a son-in-law? At least the rest of his life will not worry about food and clothing. If it were me, I would have cried and cried Going to be a son-in-law."

Contemptuous of that unlucky guy, Wu Shigong then thought: "You know, among all the marriages of men, being a son-in-law is the most cost-effective one, none of them. It is better than marrying a rich woman or a wealthy daughter." First line. You must understand that if you marry a rich woman or daughter of a wealthy family, you still need to wear a pair of shorts to get married. To be a son-in-law, you only need to wear a newspaper to get married! What is lost is a bit of face. But what face does that unlucky guy have at all? He is blinded at home and punched outside. Wu Shigong has always believed that a man's face is only worth maintaining if it is tied to interests. If there are no benefits, how much is face worth? ?Don't say that you can gain benefits by giving up face. If you lose face as a son-in-law, you can gain too much benefit. The only real loss is your son's naming rights, but he is not stupid, he will not go outside and Other women? There was no crime of bigamy in the Ming Dynasty. As long as you have the ability, no one will take care of you if you raise ten or eight women outside."

"As for the unlucky guy who is afraid of being angry at his father-in-law's mother-in-law's house, he doesn't think about it. Isn't he getting angry at his own home? Since he doesn't want to, let me accept the glorious job of the son-in-law! What kind of work is not about surviving in the cracks?" Wu Shigong thought proudly.Thinking carefully again: "Being a son-in-law, isn't the nature of this job essentially being a prostitute? I like prostitution! That's really...surviving in the cracks!" Wu Shigong suddenly said to himself. The punch line I came up with was a bit self-proud, and I couldn't help laughing "hehe" triumphantly.

The laughter startled the little maid who was dozing off on the bench beside the bed, a small head quickly got in from the cloth curtain beside the bed, and approached Wu Shigong.

"Master, you're awake." The little maid asked nervously with fluffy hair and red eyes, "Are you okay? Are you feeling better?" She kept looking Wu Shigong up and down as she spoke, and found that Wu Shigong seemed to be fine. A smile bloomed on his face.This joy is fully displayed from the inside out, making this little maid extremely beautiful.

Wu Shigong recognized this little maid as the only one he served with him, named Xiuzhu.In the entire Hou Mansion, this little girl has the best relationship with her, and the two of them depended on each other for life under heavy oppression.Looking at the embroidered bamboo with a cute expression on his face, Wu Shigong also felt very kind and happy, so he couldn't help but smiled and teased her: "There is nothing wrong with it, only one thing is not good, young master, I realize that I don't know you now. Who are you?"

Xiuzhu's face suddenly became flustered, and she was nervous for a while, but when she saw Wu Shigong's smirk, she knew that Wu Shigong was teasing her.Xiaoyan turned white to Wu Shigong, and said in a tired voice, "Master, you are a liar, you are the worst."

Wu Shigong's heart skipped a beat when he was stunned by Xiuzhu's flying eyes. Although he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, although he was considered a beauty, he still showed a charming demeanor.I sigh in my heart that this little girl from the Ming Dynasty is really precocious.In an instant, Wu Shigong's heart was filled with joy, rebirth as a human being, a stable life, a prosperous future, a beautiful maid... All these things made Wu Shigong couldn't bear it anymore.

Unbearable, then there is no need to bear it anymore, Wu Shigong exhausted all his lung capacity, and shouted loudly to Xiuzhu: "Xiuzhu, I love you so much!" Then he laughed heartily.
