Judgement

Chapter 4 The Heart of a Villain

Chen Yougui, Chen Youfu's cousin, who gambled in Lin'an City, would usually come back two or three days before he came back. As soon as he entered the house, his wife Chen Jiujin scolded him: "You bastard, you know how to come back, something big happened at home. "Chen Jiujin is the only daughter of Chen Tu, a pig butcher in Chenjiazhuang, because Chen Tu weighed nine catties when she was born.So he named his daughter Chen Jiujin.

Although Chen Jiujin was a woman, she was well-known in the Chen family village for her toughness. She was less than five feet tall but weighed two hundred catties.Usually, I especially like to wear bright red and purple clothes, and I also like to wear makeup and powder.Everyone in Chenjiazhuang called her a "hagsha" and "a live pig" behind her back.But these can only be said behind Chen Jiujin's back. If she heard it, she would block the door of someone's house and scold the street for three days and three nights.

Chen Yougui said with a playful smile: "Honey, what's the matter? Your husband won another two taels of silver." After speaking, he took out a few pieces of silver from his pocket.Chen Jiujin opened his dustpan-sized hand and snatched the silver, and spread the other hand flat on his chest and said, "Bring it."

Chen Yougui took out another tael of silver from his pocket and handed it to Chen Jiujin. Chen Jiujin raised his hand and gave Chen Yougui a big mouth. With a slap, "Di Liu Liu" turned around in a big circle.

Chen Jiujin scolded angrily: "You're a dead man who only knows how to play money all day long and never comes home. Your elder brother gave birth to a son today. It's useless for you to win so many taels of silver outside."

This sentence really made Chen Yougui's heart ache. The only girl born to Chen Yougui and Chen Jiujin was named Chen Zhaodi, and her nickname was Nizi.The one who grew up was the pockmarked man named shabby, with his nose hanging up in the sky and squinting eyes all over his face.In the Chenjiazhuang family, when the children cried and made trouble, the adults would scare the children with girls, and the children would not dare to cry immediately.It's okay for that girl to have a bad appearance, as her mother is unruly and aggressive, and her heart is also bad.So there is a saying in Chenjiazhuang secretly, "It is better to be a bachelor for a lifetime than to look at a girl." Moreover, Chen Yougui's family has a bad reputation in Chenjiazhuang, so Chen Yougui and his wife have land but they are too lazy to go to land again. , sold the few acres of land in his family.He gambles on Chenjiazhuang every day, because the gambling is not good, he will leave if he wins, and repay his debt if he loses. No one in Chenjiazhuang is willing to play money with him now.

In this way, the girl stayed at home until her twenties, but no one came to propose marriage.In the end, Chen Yougui entrusted the matchmaker to offer 20 taels of silver to marry off his daughter, and there must be a brave husband under the heavy reward.There is a lame Yang Laoliu who sells cooking cakes outside Chenjiazhuang. He is willing, probably for the 20 taels of silver.Finally, that girl got married some years ago.

So if someone else's family gave birth to a son, Chen Yougui hated him from the bottom of his heart. Today, Chen Jiujin said that his eldest brother gave birth to a son.Angrily, he went back to the house and lay down on the bed. When Chen Jiujin saw Chen Yougui's dead face, he picked Chen Yougui up from the bed like he was carrying a chick. "You dead man, what do you think your eldest brother will do after giving birth to a son?"

"What can I do when he gives birth to a son?" Chen Yougui replied weakly.

"Get six-two, Ga thirteen (the meaning of stupid and idiotic in Hangzhou curse), your elder brother is 55 this year, how many years can he live?" Chen Jiujin pointed at Chen Yougui's nose and cursed.

Chen Yougui is also a monkey spirit, and his wife immediately felt that there was something in the words. "Then what do you say?"

"It's also because you are usually so smart. Your elder brother has done so many businesses, and Chenjiazhuang is the most in front of their family. If his family had no descendants before, if this died, then his family property would be ours. Now, I really do I wonder if he will have the life to see his son grow up, as long as Chen Youfu and his wife die, can that kid still keep his share of the family business?" After speaking, Chen Yougui and his wife both had sinister smiles on their faces.

"Let's go, go to your elder brother's house to see that kid who was so red when he was born." The two of them knocked on the door and went out.

Chen Youfu just came back from outside and bought some food for Tian, ​​and made some egg paste rice soup for his son.At this time, it was already dark, and there was a knock on the door of the courtyard, and Chen Yougui and his wife pushed the door open and entered.

"Haha, congratulations to elder brother." Chen Yougui entered the room and raised his eyes to see a black ruler hanging on the door frame of the outer room, feeling a sudden chill in his heart as if he was hit by something.

"Haha, brothers and sisters-in-law are here. Sit, sit. Drink tea, drink tea." Chen Youfu got up and made tea for them.

Chen Jiujin said with a smile, "Congratulations, brother and sister-in-law. I'll go and see my precious nephew. Brother, can I name my nephew, who always lights up the room when something happens?"

"Get up, get up. It's called Chen Mengsheng, whose name is Qingzhu. Hehe."

"Brother, is this a horoscope for someone to test?"

Chen Youfu thought it was Zhang Tianshi who gave it the name, so it should be counted, so he replied: "Yes, the child was born at noon, please ask the master to test it."

"Oh. Good name, good name." When Chen Jiujin asked the child's name, he didn't care what the child's name was, but went back and asked someone to tie the villain.Turning around, he opened the curtain and walked into the back room. "Oh, sister-in-law, why are you giving this to my nephew?" Chen Jiujin's loud voice was heard by both Chen Youfu brothers who were greeting each other in the outer room.

Tian Cui'e was lying on the bed and was feeding her son custard rice soup. She said to Chen Jiujin in an embarrassed voice: "My sister-in-law is getting old, and ### is not enough. Your elder brother has asked Aunt Zhu to invite a nanny, and I think she will come tomorrow gone."

It's also strange that Chen Mengsheng ate well, but since Chen Jiujin entered the room, he has been crying unceasingly.Chen Jiujin stood there in embarrassment for a while, Tian Cui'e had no choice but to stand up and apologize to Chen Jiujin with a smile: "The child is too young to understand, don't be angry with him, auntie."

"Where will it be, how will it be. Let me come and see this precious nephew." He walked to the head of the bed, picked up Chen Mengsheng and took the opportunity to take three fetal hairs from Chen Mengsheng's head.

Chen Mengsheng cried loudly in Chen Jiujin's arms. His eyes, which had never been opened all this time, suddenly opened, and white light shot out of them.Chen Jiujin's whole body trembled involuntarily like a lightning strike.The child in his hand was almost thrown out.Tian didn't know at all, but only knew that her son was crying more and more fiercely, and said distressedly: "The child is afraid of being born, don't tire the aunt."

Chen Jiujin put the child back angrily, talked with Tian Shi before going out to bid farewell to Chen Youfu, Chen Youfu took out a large bag of wedding cakes and eggs and gave it to his dearest cousin, repeatedly He told the children to come to drink earlier on the day of the Three Dynasties...

Besides, when Chen Yougui and his wife returned home, they felt that Chen Mengsheng was not an easy boy, and he would be a disaster in the future. Chen Jiujin thought for a while and said, "I'm going to Lin'an City tomorrow, so you stay at home and take good care of me. "

"What are you doing in Lin'an City?"

"If Chen Mengsheng doesn't get rid of that boy for a day, my mother and I will have no peace in my heart." The couple fell asleep without a word overnight.

In the early morning of the next day, Chen Jiujin hired a donkey cart and went to the Qiantang River, took a boat into Lin'an City, and got off the boat from the West Lake.It's already noon, and the West Lake has always been a good place to enjoy the lake. The literati and poets have left a lot of popular poems here.Su Shi, a great writer in the Northern Song Dynasty, wrote "Drinking Lake on the First Sunshine and Later Rain", the water is shining and sunny, and the mountains are empty and rainy.If you want to compare West Lake to West Lake, light makeup and heavy smear are always suitable.So West Lake is also called West Lake.

Chen Jiujin didn't have the heart to appreciate the beautiful scenery of West Lake. The place she was going to was the Sanqing Temple beside the West Lake. Outside the Sanqing Temple was Yuan Banxian, who was known as a living god.Chen Jiujin casually ate a few mouthfuls of the wedding cake that Chen Youfu gave yesterday, and hurried to Sanqing Temple.At this time, most of the people had gone home for dinner, and there were only twos and threes hawking people outside Sanqing Temple.

Among the many stalls, there is a stall for teaching hexagrams, with several large banners erected on both sides of the stall.On the left side of the banner is written "insight into the three things of life", and on the right side of the banner is written "clearly pointing to the world".On the banner in the middle, there are three large characters of "Yuan Banxian".
