Jinpingmei

Chapter 68

The word says: I love you so much that you will never rest even when you are old.The moon dew, smoke and clouds are all attitudes, Kuang and the jade man made it clear.

Soft words, exhortations, tenderness and love, melt all the iron in the liver and intestines.The Qi Pavilion holds the lamp, the water flows and the flowers fade away.

It is said that after Ximenqing and Li Ping'er burned the paper, they returned to Pan Jinlian's room to rest for the night.On the next day, I first sent happy noodles to the Earl's family.After Huang Si led his brother-in-law, Sun Wenxiang, he slaughtered a pig, a jar of wine, two roast geese, four roast chickens, and two boxes of fruits to kowtow to Ximen Qing.Ximenqing did not accept it again and again, Huang Sida said on his knees, "I am very grateful for the grace of my father's life. There is no filial piety, a little gift, and my father rewards others, how can I not accept it!"

After pushing for half a day, Ximen Qing stopped accepting the pig wine: "Let's stay and give you the money, old man."

Huang Sidao: "Since this is the case, it's hard to be a little poor for the villain. There is nowhere to go."

I had to carry the soup fruit back.Ask again: "When is Dad free? The villain asked Second Uncle Ying, please sit inside."

Ximen Qing said: "Don't listen to him coaxing you! It's bothering you again, why don't you let me go."

That Huang Si and his brother-in-law thanked each other and went out.

On the first day of November, Ximenqing came back from the yamen, and then went to the yamen of Lizhi County to have a drink. Yueniang was alone, dressed in plain makeup, and went to Qiao Dahu's house in a sedan chair to celebrate her birthday with the eldest sister, and she was not at home.Later in the afternoon, there was Aunt Xue in the nunnery, who heard Yueniang promised him to chant scriptures and worship "Blood Pot Confession" on the fifth day of the first lunar month, so she secretly bought two boxes of gifts to see Yueniang without telling Aunt Wang.Yueniang was not at home, so Li Jiaoer and Meng Yulou invited him to have tea and said, "Big sister went to Qiao's house for her birthday. You have to wait for him to come, he is still talking to you."

Aunt Xue just sat down.Pan Jinlian thought about Yuxiao and told him that Yueniang had taken his talisman water medicine to get her fetal gas, and seeing that Ximenqing had asked for a milk, she was afraid that the milk would raise a child and take away his favor.So he let Aunt Xue into his room in front of him, and quietly begged Aunt Xue to give him a tael of silver to match him with a fetal gas talisman medicine.

In the evening, when the waiting Yueniang came home, she stayed with him overnight.The next day, I asked Ximen Qing to ask him for five taels of silver to write the scripture money.Aunt Xue kept the truth from Aunt Wang and Master, and on the fifth day of the lunar new year, eight female monks were invited to set up a dojo in the garden shed, recite the mantras of "Hua Yan" and "King Kong", and worship the treasure of "Blood Pot". repent.In the evening, a flame opening is set up to provide food.On that day, Mrs. Wu, Mrs. Hua and official guests Mr. Wu, Earl Ying and Wen Xiucai were invited to have a vegetarian meal.The nun didn't play the instrument, but just knocked on the wooden fish, beat his hands on Xin, and recited scriptures.

On that day, the earl took Huang's four families, and on the seventh day of the first day of Jutie, he bought wine at Zheng Aiyue'er's house in the courtyard to invite Ximen to celebrate.Ximenqing read the post and said with a smile: "I have no free time on the seventh day of the lunar new year. Zhang Xicun's family has birthday wine. I am free tomorrow."

Asked who else was there, the count said: "There is no one else. I only invited me and Li Sanxiang to accompany my brother, and asked my four daughters to sing "The Romance of the West Chamber""

Ximenqing ordered him and Huang's family to eat fast, and sent them back to change to the sixth day.The count then asked, "What gift did Huang Si buy that day to thank you?"

Ximenqing said: "I don't accept his, I kowtow again and again, I only accept pig wine. I added two bolts of white pheasant silk, two bolts of Beijing satin, and 50 taels of silver. Thank you Longye Qiangong."

The count said: "Brother, it's enough if you don't take the money. This is what he got. Let alone the four horses are worth 30 taels of silver, and the 20 taels. Where can I find the money? It will benefit him and save his father and son." human life!"

Sit on the same day until the evening before going away.Ximen Qing said to the earl, "You will still be here tomorrow."

"I know," said the count.

Say goodbye.The eight nuns and monks were in chaos until one more, and the ashram was completed just now, and the burning box was dispersed.

On the next day, Ximenqing went to the Yamen early.Let's say that Aunt Wang inquired and found out that she came early in the morning and said that Aunt Xue had taken the scriptures and wanted money.Yueniang blamed him and said: "Why didn't you come yesterday? He said you went to the royal family's birthday."

Aunt Wang said: "This is the ghost of the old whore of Xue's family. He told me that our house moved to the sixth day to chant sutras. Could it be that he took all the sutra money and didn't keep some of it?"

Yue Niang said: "Wait until here? I have never read the scriptures, so I found him for the scriptures and writing methods. I left a piece of cash with you here."

Jiao Xiaoyu hurriedly gave him some leftover fast food from yesterday, and gave him a piece of blue cloth.The aunt Wang murmured and scolded: "This old whore, he has earned a lot of money from Liu Niang by printing and making scriptures. It was said that the scriptures, we two envoys, you lost it alone. "

Yueniang said: "Old Xue said that you received Liuniang's "Xuepenjing" five liang of silver, why don't you read it for him?"

Aunt Wang said: "When the old man was home on May [-]th, I invited four masters at home and studied for half a month."

Yue Niang said: "You read it, why did you say that you didn't answer me? Just tell me, and I will give you some gifts."

Then Aunt Wang said nothing, sat down awkwardly for a while, and went to Aunt Xue's house to yell.It is exactly: the monks and nuns of the Buddhist Association are one family, and the wheel of Dharma often turns to save Longhua.This thing has no choice but to try to procreate, but it is in vain to use a golden knife to cut off the flowers.

But Ximenqing came back from the yamen and had dinner, and Earl Ying arrived early again.With a new satin hat in the helmet, agarwood-colored pleats, and powder-soled soap boots, he said hello to Ximen, and said, "It's noon today, so go. He has invited people several times."

Ximen Qing said: "Let's invite Kui Xuan to walk with us today."

Envoy Wang Jing: "Go to the other side and invite you, Master Wen."

Not long after Wang Jing left, he replied, "Master Wen is not at home, I went to visit friends."

The earl said: "We can't wait for him. If there is a scholar, do you want to pay close attention to your friends? Let's come if you know more? It's not a mistake."

Ximenqing told Qintong: "Prepare a yellow horse and ride with Yinger Daddy."

The earl said: "I don't ride. You follow me: just ring the bell and beat the drums. I'll take a step first. You just take your sedan chair and come slowly."

Ximen Qing said: "What you said is true, you go first."

The count raised his hand and left first.

Ximenqing ordered Dai'an, Qintong, and four platoon troops to pack up the warm sedan chair and follow them.Just waiting to go out, suddenly Ping An'er came from outside in a panic with a pair of posts and said, "Father An from the Ministry of Industry is here to pay homage. First, I sent an official to deliver the posts, and the sedan chair will come later."

In a panic, Ximenqing ordered the kitchen at home to prepare meals, and asked Lai Xing'er to buy a plate of dim sum for serving.After a long time, Mr. An came, and Ximen Qing came out to welcome him.An Langzhong wears a makeup flower Yunlu Buzi collar and a gold belt with cute flowers. After entering the door, he pays his respects, divides the guests and hosts to sit down, and brings tea from the left and right.After tea, let's talk about the broad feelings.Ximen Qingdao: "The old man was honored, but he was not congratulated, and his heart was very lacking. The day before yesterday, he was given a gift of Hua Zhahou, and his life was at a funeral. I apologize for not being able to wait for daily life."

An Langzhong said: "Students have lost their minds and asked, it's a crime! I was born in Beijing and once reached Yunfeng. I don't know if I can be polite?"

Ximen Qing said: "That's right, and I also accepted Zhai's family's long-distance labor and paid for it."

An Lang said: "Siquan must congratulate you this year."

Ximen Qing said, "I'm only a small person, how dare I hope so much."

He also said: "The old man was honored and promoted to a beautiful post, and he showed his talents. The merits of harnessing the river are admired by the world."

An Langzhong said: "Meng Siquan is too famous. A lowly Confucian, insulting Mr. Cai's promotion, absurd water conservancy, repairing rivers, when the people are running out of money. The former imperial ship carried flowers and stones, destroyed gates and dams, and passed by upside down. , public and private difficulties and evils are extremely extreme. It is also obstructed by thieves and thieves.

Ximen Qing said: "The old man has a great talent, and he will be ready in a few days, and he will be promoted."

Because he asked: "Is there a deadline in the imperial edict, old man?"

An Lang said: "Three years. After the river work is completed, the Holy Majesty will send officials to offer sacrifices to the river god."

During the conversation, Ximen Qing ordered the table to be placed, and An Lang said: "Student, to be honest, I still have to pay my respects to Huang Taiyu."

Ximen Qing said: "Since that's the case, don't sit for a while, and teach the followers to eat some snacks."

In a short while, it was Chunsheng table wine, sixteen bowls of one color for rice, Jinzhong warm wine poured in, and all the servants had a plate of dim sum, wine and meat.An Lang only ate for three minutes during the banquet, then he left and got up, saying: "Student, please come to ask for advice again."

Ximen Qing couldn't keep the money, so he sent it to the gate, got on the sedan chair and left.Go back to the hall, take off the crown belt, change the scarf, stop wearing purple velvet and straighten your body.People asked, "Has Master Wen come?"

Dai'an replied, "Master Wen hasn't come back yet. Zheng Chun and Uncle Huang's family came to Ding'er to invite me. I've been here for half a day."

Ximenqing immediately went out and got into the sedan chair, followed left and right, and went to Zheng Aiyue'er's house.When they entered the gate of the courtyard, the rackers all avoided one side, and only the head of Haihai stood on both sides, not daring to kneel to meet him.Zheng Chun and Lai Ding'er reported first.Earl Ying was playing Shuanglu with Li San, when he heard Ximen Qing coming, he was too late to clean up.Zheng Aiyue'er and Ai Xiang'er wore sea otters and rabbits, a nest of silk from Hangzhou, dressed like flower fairies, and they all came out to greet them.Ximen Qing got off the sedan chair and entered the passenger seat.Ximen Qing ordered not to blow and beat, but to stop the drumming.First, Li San and Huang Si paid their respects, and then the bustard of the Zheng family came out to pay their respects.It was the sisters Ai Yueer who kowtowed.There are two high chairs placed in front, Ximen Qing and Earl Ying sit down, Li Zhi, Huang Si and the sisters of the Zheng family fight horizontally.Dai'an asked from the side, "Here is the sedan chair, have you gone home?"

Ximen Qing ordered the platoon and the sedan chairs to go back, and then told Qin Tong: "When I get home, I saw that Master Wen is here, and brought him here with a yellow horse."

Qin Tong should go here.The Earl asked, "Brother, why did you come here only half a day ago?"

Ximen Qingxi told about Langzhong An's visit to pay his respects.

After a while, Zheng Chun brought tea, and Ai Xianger handed a cup to the Earl.Ai Yue'er handed it to Ximen Qing, and the earl quickly picked it up with his hands, saying, "I picked it up by mistake, just say you hand it to me."

Ai Yue'er said: "Shall I hand it to you? ──I didn't cultivate such a blessing!"

The count said: "Look at this little whore, she only recognizes her men, but doesn't care about the guests."

Ai Yue'er laughed and said, "It's not your turn to be a guest today!"

After finishing the tea, the four prostitutes who sang "The West Chamber" all came out to kowtow to Ximen Qing and asked their names one by one.Ximen Qing said to Huang Si: "When you come back to sing, just beat the drums, not the drums."

Huang Sidao: "The villain knows."

The bustard was afraid that Ximen Qing would be cold, so he taught Zheng Chun to put down the warm curtain, and put a lot of animal charcoal in the brazier.I saw several Tsingyi Yuanshe heard that Ximenqing was eating wine at Zheng's house, and they came to the door to wait on them, probed their heads, and dared not go in.Those who recognize Dai'an greeted Dai'an, and made it happen.Dai'an quietly came in to ask questions for him, but Ximen Qing yelled at him, causing everyone to leave in a hurry.After a while, the fruit table and wine came up, and there were two tables in front: Ximen Qing had a table alone, and the Earl and Wen Xiucai had a table—leaving Wen Xiucai on the left.On the side are Li San and Huang Si, and on the right are his two sisters.The delicacies on the side are piled with exotic products, and the flowers are placed in golden vases.Zheng Feng and Zheng Chun played and sang beside them.

Only after handing over the banquet and sitting down, did Wen Xiucai arrive.Wearing a bridge scarf on his head and a green cloud jacket, he entered the door and bowed.The earl said: "Why is it so late, old man? I have stayed at the table for a long time."

Wen Xiucai said: "The student is guilty. I didn't know the old man called me, so I went to my classmate's meeting book. It was a step late."

Panicked, Huang Si put the clock and chopsticks down, and sat down with the earl.After a while, soup and rice came up, and the two little Youer played and sang for a while.The four prostitutes came up and sang "Entertainment in the Central Plains" and Dai'an said, "Aunt Yin sent Wu Hui and wax plum to bring tea."

It turned out that Wu Yin'er lived behind Zheng's house, just across the alley.Hearing that Ximen Qing was eating wine here, the envoy sent him tea.Ximenqing called inside, Wu Hui and Wamei kowtowed, and said, "Sister Yin asked me to bring tea to my father."

Open the box, pour tea on it, and each person has a cup of melon kernel tea.Ximen Qing said, "What is Sister Yin doing at home?"

Wamei said: "Sister is at home today."

After Ximenqing had tea, he rewarded him with two and three qian silver, and ordered Dai'an and Wu Hui to say, "Please ask Aunt Yin to go."

Zheng Aiyue was quick-witted, so she asked Zheng Chun: "You also followed, at least you got Aunt Yin to come. If he doesn't come, you can say that I won't be his buddy tomorrow."

Earl Ying said: "I'm funny, you two turned out to be dealers."

Wen Xiucai said: "Mr. Nan is so unreasonable. Since ancient times, we have responded with the same voice and sought each other with the same spirit. Those who are based on the sky will kiss each other, and those who are based on the earth will kiss each other. It is only natural to be a buddy with him."

Ai Yue'er said: "Ying Huazi, you and Zheng Chun are both buddies, and they are all in the same place when they are on duty and singing."

The count said: "Silly boy, I'm a bastard! Then let's have sex with your mother, and you're still in the stomach!"

In the midst of joking, the prostitute came up and sang "Half Thousand Bandit Soldiers." Ximen Qing called the daughter of the Han family who sang Yingying to come closer and asked, "Whose daughter of the Han family are you?"

Ai Xianger said: "Father, you don't recognize him? He is Han Jinchuan's niece daughter, nicknamed Xiaochouer, and she is only 13 years old this year."

Ximen Qing said: "This child will become a good woman tomorrow. She behaves smartly and sings well."

Because he was asked to serve wine at the table.Huang Si served soup and rice, showing great hospitality.

After a while, Wu Yin'er came.On the head is a white crepe bun, a bead hoop, emerald cloud tinsel, and a small hairpin around it.He wears a pair of white silk jackets on the top, beautiful makeup, and a green Lu silk skirt with gauze and gold trimming on sheepskin.Ink blue plain satin shoes on the feet.He entered the door with a smile on his face, kowtowed to Ximen Qing, and then said Wanfu to Wen Xiucai and everyone else.The earl said: "I'm funny, and you'll make me angry when you come here. I'm always raised by a stepmother? I only recognize your father, kowtow to him, and look at me. Wait for the bully! If I have a five-stick yamen, I will not spare you."

Ai Yue'er called: "Ying Huazi, you are such a shameless child. You don't have a lot of clothes, and you are easy to throw away."

While seated, Sister Yin was asked to sit down at Ximenqing's table.Seeing that he was wearing a white bun, Ximen Qing asked, "Which filial piety are you wearing?"

Wu Yin'er said: "Father deliberately asked again, because he and Mother Dai Xiao have been together."

When Ximen Qing heard that Li Ping'er was wearing mourning, he was filled with joy, and sat on the side table with him, and the two of them talked.

After a while, the soup and rice came up, and Ai Yue'er came down to pass wine to him.Wu Yin'er left the table and said, "I haven't seen Mama Zheng yet."

On the one hand, he went to the bustard's room to meet the ceremony, and when he came out, the bustard called: "Sister Yue, let sister Yin sit. I'm afraid it's cold, teach the girl to burn a fire cage and warm hands with sister Yin."

Immediately, hot dishes were added, and Wu Yin'er only ate half a dim sum and drank two sips of soup.Putting down the chopsticks, he talked to Ximen Qingpan, "Mother, did you stop praying for seven sutras the day before yesterday?"

Ximen Qing said: "Thank you for every tea on Wuqi."

Wu Yin'er said: "Every time I sent some rough tea that day, I taught my father to return the favor, and I thank you for the gift, and my mother was terrified. Yesterday, my mother died seven days ago. I will go to Sister Yue and Sister Gui. Bring tea, but I don't know whether to recite scriptures in the house or not."

Ximen Qing said: "On the day of the Seventh Break, I randomly invited a few female monks to worship and repent at home. I didn't invite any relatives, I'm afraid it will be troublesome."

While drinking and talking, Wu Yin'er asked again: "Are all the ladies at home okay?"

Ximen Qing said: "It's all good."

Wu Yin'er said: "Dad suddenly lost his mother, and he went to the room to be an orphan, do you also think about it?"

Ximen Qing said: "I guess it goes without saying. The day before yesterday in the study, I dreamed of him, and I cried so much."

Wu Yin'er said: "The heat is gone, you know what to expect!"

The earl said: "every time you say something you know, you just keep me dry. If you don't say to pass the bell wine, you can also sing and listen to me. I'll get up and go!"

Panicked, Li San and Huang Si hurriedly urged his sister and son to come up and deliver wine.Set down the instrument, Wu Yin'er also came up.The three fans generally sat on the mat, [Zuli] lit the brazier, and sang a set of "Zhonglu Fandieer" together with the sound of cracking stones and flowing clouds at the end of "San Nong Plum Blossoms".

After singing, Ximen Qing said to the earl, "You ask his sister to sing three times, and you come down and give him a drink too."

The count said: "It doesn't matter, no one will die. Wait until I send him: leaning on his back, stretching straight, lying on his side, the golden rooster is independent, and I can use it as I like; another one, wild horses tread on the field, wild foxes spin silk, and apes offer fruit." , the yellow dog is drowning, the immortal will guide the way,—brother, let him choose what he wants.”

Aixiang said: "I don't want to scold you, you're a bastard, you're talking nonsense."

Earl Ying set the wine dish for three minutes and said, "My son, you eat it in my hand for two minutes. If you don't eat it, you just splash it on your body."

Aixiang said: "I don't drink alcohol today."

Ai Yue'er said: "You kneel down to Aunt Yue and teach me to slap my mouth so I can eat."

The count said, "Sister Yin, what do you say?"

Wu Yin'er said: "Second father, I feel uncomfortable today, so I can eat half a cup."

Ai Yue'er said: "Huako, if you don't kneel, I won't eat for 100 years."

Huang Sidao: "Second uncle, if you don't kneel, you don't look like a fun person. Forget it, just kneel and don't fight."

Ai Yue'er said: "If you kneel, you won't slap too much, just teach me to slap the mouth twice."

The count said: "Old Mr. Wen, look, it's strange that the little prostitute only wants to kill them all."

So he had no choice but to kneel down on the ground.That Aiyue'er flipped her colorful sleeves lightly, revealing the spring fibers, and scolded: "Tie Huazi, how dare you be rude and offend Aunt Yue? - Loudly agree. If you don't agree, I won't eat it either."

The count had no choice but to respond, "Don't dare to hurt Aunt Yue again."

This Ai Yue'er slapped her mouth twice before she ate the bell wine.The count got up and said, "You little harlot, you have a mouthful left over for me. I'll eat a whole bell of wine."

Ai Yue'er said: "Kneel down and wait for me to give you a bell to eat."

So he poured a full cup, and smiled at the Earl, who only had one drink in his mouth.The count said, "It's the little harlot who made me pour all over me. I'll be honest, this dress is just the first day I've worn it, and it's stained me. I'll ask your man for it."

After laughing for a while, everyone sat down at the table.

Look at the night and come up with candles.Ximen Qing ordered to fetch a dice basin.Let Wen Xiucai first, and the scholar said: "It's unreasonable! It's from the old man."

So Ximenqing and Yin'er used twelve dice to compete for the top prize, while the four prostitutes below played and sang with musical instruments.After a round of drinking, Wu Yin'er turned around to compete with Wen Xiucai and the earl for popularity, but Ai Xiang'er came to the Ximen celebration banquet to pass wine and guess the number.After a while, Ai Yue'er came up to compete with Ximen Qing for popularity, but Wu Yin'er passed Li San and Huang Si wine to the next table.It turned out that Ai Yue went to the room to dress up with new makeup, wearing a pair of brocade jackets with fire patterns in smoke, a gold skirt with light yellow silk dots and emerald strands, trousers with flowery knees, shoes with red phoenix mouths, and a sea otter lying under the lamp. The rabbit's face became more and more pink and white.It's true: the beauty is more enchanting, and the spirit of Qiushui is auspicious.Bai Yusheng's fragrant flowers explain the language, and a good night with thousands of gold is hard to disappear.

Seeing Ximen Qing, why not love her.After drinking for a few minutes, I got up half drunk, because I was thinking about what Li Ping'er said in his dream: Don't be greedy for drinking outside at night.While standing up, he cleaned his hands behind his back.The panic-stricken bustard hurriedly asked the maid to light the lamp and led her to the back.After she relieved herself, Aiyue came to serve her immediately.After cleaning his hands in the basin, he took him by the hand and went to the room together.

In the room, the moon window was half open, the silver candles were burning high, the air was as warm as spring, and the orchid musk was fragrant, so I took off the top cover, stopped wearing white silk Taoist robes, and the two of them sat on the bed with their legs pressed together.First, Ai Yue'er asked: "Father is not going home today."

Ximen Qing said: "I'll go. One of them, Yin'er, is here today. I'm sorry. I'm an official, and I'm here for an inspection this year. I'm afraid there will be disputes. I just come to sit with you during the day."

He also said: "Thank you for soaking the snails the day before yesterday. You gave it away, which made me feel sad for a long time. Back then, he would pick only the deceased Liu Niang. If he died, no one in the family would pick him up!"

Aiyue said: "It's not difficult to pick him, it's just as long as he can handle it. The melon kernels are eaten one by one in my mouth, and it's better to eat the melon seeds."

Ximen Qing said: "If you ask that face-smearing flower, it's better to mumble with two handfuls. There's not much left, I'll eat it."

Ai Yue'er said: "It's good for the thief, and it happens to be filial to him."

He also said: "Thank you, Dad, Yimei. Mom saw that he ate one, and he was very happy. He was going to have a phlegm fire, and coughed in the middle of the night every night, which made people grouse to death. He often had a dry mouth, so he had to be embarrassed. With him in the mouth, a lot of body fluid was produced. My sister and I didn’t eat much, and even the jars were kept in the room for him to eat morning and night, who would dare to touch him!”

Ximen Qing said: "It doesn't matter, I will send another can for you to eat tomorrow."

Ai Yue asked again: "Has Daddy met Sister Gui in the past few days?"

Ximen Qing said: "From the time of the filial piety hall to now, who has seen him come?"

Ai Yue'er said: "Liu Niang Wuqi, he also brought tea?"

Ximen Qing said: "His family envoy Li Ming sent it here."

Ai Yue said: "I have something to say, I only keep it in my heart."

Ximen Qing asked, "What are you talking about?"

Ai Yue thought for a while and said: "I don't want to say it. If I say it, Xian's sisters are always like me talking about him behind my back. I'm sorry."

Ximen Qing put his arms around his neck and said, "You little glib, what are you talking about? Tell me, as long as you don't show yourself."

The two were just about to enter the port, when the earl came in and shouted: "You two good people, leave me talking about my own words every time I walk here!"

Ai Yue'er said: "Hey, what an unsatisfactory and embarrassing bastard! You can come here suddenly, and make people jump!"

Ximen Qing scolded: "It's a strange dog, let's go ahead. The lost Kui Xuan and Sister Yin are there, they all came back."

The earl sat down on the bed and said, "Give me your arm, and I'll give you a bite before I go. You two are doing your best [into the sun] here!"

So he couldn't help but stretch out the goose fat white wrist to Ai Yue'er's cuff, and boasted: "My son, your two hands are born to be a cock."

Ai Yue'er said: "It's strange to use the knife, I can't scold it!"

Pulled over by the earl, he took a bite and left.The biting made the wife scream and scolded: "Blame Huazi, you came here for nothing to fool around and die!"

Then he called Tao Hua'er: "Look, he has gone out and closed the alley door."

Aiyue told Ximenqing that Sister Li Gui and Wang Sanguan'er had a good time now: "how can there be a widowed grandson, Zhu Mazi, Xiao Zhang Xian, Jia'er Yu Kuan, Nie Yue'er, Bai Huizi, who kicks the head of the line, Xiangsan walked around his house day by day. Now he left Qi Xiang'er behind and started a conversation with Yuzhi'er of the Qin family, spending money twice. He pawned the leather jacket for 30 taels of silver and took his wife A pair of gold bracelets was left at Sister Li Gui's house, and it was calculated as one month's rest money."

Ximen Qing heard this, and cursed: "You little whore, I ordered Hugh to get entangled with this little fellow, but he didn't listen, and even swore at me, and happened to only coax me."

Ai Yue'er said: "I don't want to be annoyed, either. I said to have a relationship with my father, and Guanqing taught Wang Sanguan to slap her, to vent my anger on my father's behalf."

Ximen Qing held him in his arms and said, "My son, if you have any connections, tell me."

Ai Yue'er said: "I told you, father, don't teach anyone to know. Even Ying Huazi, don't ask him questions, I'm afraid it will go wrong."

Ximen Qing said: "You tell me that I am stupid, I am willing to teach others to know!"

Zheng Aiyue said: "Mrs. Lin, the wife of the third official, is not over 40 years old this year. She looks pretty good! She has painted eyebrows and eyes, and is dressed like a fox. His son is in the courtyard all day long, and he is only at home, only looking for affairs. Pretend to eat fast in the aunt's nunnery, but when I go, I will settle at the house of Wen Sao'er who is a matchmaker. Wen Sao'er only takes the lead with him, and only talks about love. I said that with Dad, it will not be difficult to meet him tomorrow. Another Qiao Zonger: Mrs. Wang Sanguan is only 19 years old today. She is the niece daughter of the Liuhuang Taiwei in Tokyo. She is as beautiful as a painting. She knows both Shuanglu and chess pieces. Sanguan is often not at home. He is like a widow, so angry Angry to death. He was hanged two or three times because of him, but he was rescued. It’s rare for father to scratch and stab his mother first, so don’t worry that the daughter-in-law is not yours.”

At that moment, Ximen Qing, who was uttered by his words, was distracted, put his arms around his pink head and said, "My dear, how did you know it?"

Ai Yue'er didn't say that she often sang at his house, but only said: "I'm an acquaintance, so I met his mother somewhere like this, and it's also Wen's sister-in-law."

Ximen Qing asked: "Who is that person? Could it be Zhang Erguan, the nephew of Zhang Dahu, a big street?"

Ai Yue'er said: "That Zhang Maode'er is a good [Japanese] product. He has a swollen face and two eyes closed. Don't kill me! I have to pick him up by the slaves of the Jiang family."

Ximen Qing said: "I can't guess, who is it?"

Ai Yue'er said: "Godfather, you know: it was a southerner who combed me. He came here to do business twice a year, and he couldn't rest inside for a night or two, but he often talked with others outside. Stealing a cat and handing over a dog, doing this."

Ximenqing heard this, and when he saw what Fantou was doing, he closed his eyes and was also happy, saying: "My son, since you are so attached to my heart, I will send you 30 taels of silver every month to spend money with your mother, and there is no need to accept it." I'm here. I'll come when I'm free."

Ai Yue'er said: "Father, if you have my heart, what is 30 taels and 20 taels, and then I will grab a few taels of silver and mother, I am so lazy to keep someone, just serve dad."

Ximen Qing said: "What are you talking about! I will definitely send you 30 taels of silver."

After that, the two go to bed and have sex.The quilt on the bed was about one foot high, Ai Yue said: "Dad, won't you take off your clothes?"

Ximen Qing said: "Let's just play around with our clothes on, I'm afraid they will wait for us in front of us." While pulling the pillow, Fen Tou undressed and lay on his back by the pillow. Ximen Qing carried his two little golden lotuses on his shoulders. , Unbutton the blue silk trousers, then use the braces.But see the flower heart lightly folded, and the willow waist pendulum.It's exactly: the flowers are tender and soft, and the spring breeze is still alive.The flower heart is still not enough, and the pulse is endless.

Call Fan Lang in a low voice, and the spring night is still young.

The two had been having sex for a long time, and at the moment when Ximen Qing wanted to let go, Ximen Qing was out of breath, her pink hair was making a coquettish voice, and the cloud on her temples was dragging her pillow, all she could say was: "Dad, please slow down!"

For a short time, the joy and emotion are strong, and the vent is like a note.After the clouds collected and the rain dispersed, each of them dressed up, cleaned his hands, and came to the banquet hand in hand.

Wu Yin'er and Ai Xiang'er were playing with Kui Xuan and the Earl in the lively place, tossing and tossing each other.Seeing Ximen Qing enter, everyone stood up and gave up their seats.The count said: "You are like that. Every time you leave me here, you come out, hold your head with your wine."

Ximen Qing said: "Every time I say a word, I have something to do!"

The count said, "Good words, you two were talking about yourself."

At that moment, the earl poured warm wine with a big clock, and everyone accompanied Ximen to celebrate.Four prostitutes played and sang on musical instruments.Dai'an said beside him, "Here comes the sedan chair."

Ximen Qing whispered to him, and Na Dai'an quickly ordered the platoon to light up the lanterns and serve outside.Ximen Qing didn't sit down either, but stood and drank with everyone.Instructed the four prostitutes: "Sing 'Shy at First Sight' again and I'll listen."

Then Han Xiaochou'er picked up the pipa, and sang in a charming voice: "When you see you are shy, you will fall in love with each other."I saw him in all kinds of charming ways, all kinds of enchanting, and gentle.The general book first hooks up the words, and secretly glances at each other.Keep it in mind.In my heart, when will it be accomplished.

After singing one, Wu Yin'er handed Ximenqing wine, Zheng Xianger handed it to the earl, Ai Yueer served Wen Xiucai, Li Zhi and Huang Si both poured it.The four whores sang another one.After eating, everyone exchanged hands with each other twice, and the prostitute sang two more.

After singing and drinking, Ximen Qing got up.On the one hand, he ordered Dai'an to take out eleven packages of different sizes from the book bag and reward them: four prostitutes each received three qian, the cooks each received five qian, Wu Hui, Zheng Chun, and Zheng Feng each received three qian, and each of the men who made tea Two coins, and the girl Taohuaer also gave him three coins.All kowtow thanks.Huang Si refused to let go again and again, and said, "Second Uncle Ying, you old man said, it's still early. Dad is sitting around and doing his best to be a villain. Why do you have to get up? My aunt Yue, you also stay behind." stay."

Ai Yue'er said: "I keep him, but he refuses to sit for nothing."

Ximen Qing said: "You don't know, I have something to do tomorrow."

On the one hand, he bowed to Huang Si and said, "I am disturbed!"

Huang Sidao: "Fear! If you don't invite daddy to come and starve, and he refuses to sit for a long time, you are still a villain without respect."

As they said that, the three singers kowtowed and said: "Father will visit the aunt and all the ladies when I get home. Whenever I have free time, I will meet Sister Yin and go to the house to see the aunt."

Ximen Qing said: "Every time you are free, go and sit for a day."

While holding up the lantern, Ximenqing stepped down from the platform. The bustard of Zheng's family greeted Wanfu and said, "My father sat back and got up in a panic. I think my food is not delicious? There is still a piece of rice that hasn't been served yet!"

Ximen Qing said: "That's enough. I have to get up early tomorrow, there is something going on in the yamen. Brother Ying is fine, teach him to sit back."

The earl was about to follow, but was stopped by Huang Si forcefully, and said: "My second master, if you go, you will die of boredom."

The count said: "No, don't stop me. If you keep old Mr. Wen, I will count you as a hero."

That Wen Xiucai grabbed the door and left, and was hugged by Lai Ding'er, a servant of the Huang family.When Ximen Qing arrived at the gate, he asked Qin Tonger, "Is Master Wen here?"

Qin Tong said: "I have prepared a donkey here, and Hua Tong'er is watching."

Ximen Qing said to Wen Xiucai: "Since you have a talk, it's okay, Mr. Xianer, you can sit with Brother Ying, and I'll go first."

So, they were all sent out.Then Zheng Yue'er took Ximen Qing's hand and squeezed it quietly, and said: "Father, you should be careful about what I say, and the law will not be passed on to others."

Ximen Qing said, "Understood."

Ai Yue called Zheng Chun again: "Send Dad home."

Ximen Qing just got into the sedan chair.Wu Yin'er made a speech at the door and said goodbye to everyone and the two sisters of Zheng's family. Wu Hui went home with the light on.Zheng Yue'er then called: "Sister Yin, when you see that bastard, don't talk about it anyway."

Wu Yin'er said: "I know."

Everyone returned to the table, added animal charcoal again, and then floated in the clouds, singing and dancing, playing bombs, and having fun and drinking, until the third watch.Huang Si set up the banquet and gave him ten taels of silver, not to mention.On that day, Ximenqing was sitting in a sedan chair, and two platoon soldiers, with lights on, left the courtyard and sent Zheng Chun home.

I've had a question about the night scene.On the next day, Xia Ti's execution officer agreed to come and ask Ximen Qing to go to the Yamen to interrogate the thief and other matters, and asked until noon to come home.After dinner, Uncle Shen sent a high official, Shen Ding, to take Tie'er to send a young man to cook and make a fire in the satin shop. His name is Liu Bao.Ximen Qing stayed behind and was in the study, taking Tie'er and Shen Ding to go home.Seeing Dai'an standing beside him, Ximen Qing asked, "Master Wen, did we come here more yesterday?"

Dai'an said: "I slept in the small shop for a long time, only to hear Hua Tong'er call the right door, so we didn't come until the third watch. I asked this morning, Master Wen didn't have any wine; Ying'er father was drunk and spit One day, Aunt Yue is afraid that it will be late at night, so Zheng Chun will be sent to his house."

Ximenqing laughed when he heard this, and because he called Dai'an to come closer, he said, "Where does Mrs. Wen, who used to be a matchmaker with your brother-in-law, live? You found him and met me in the house opposite. I will talk to him."

Dai'an said: "I don't recognize Mrs. Wen's house, wait until I ask my brother-in-law."

Ximen Qing said: "You asked him to go quickly."

Dai'an went to the shop and asked Chen Jingji, Jingji said, "Ask him what he does?"

Dai'an said: "Who knows what he does, you can teach me to catch him."

Jingji said: "Exit the East Street and go straight south. After passing the Tongren Bridge archway, turn to the east and enter Wangjia Lane. There is a patrol hall in the middle of the waist. There is a stone bridge opposite the door. Turn around the stone bridge. It's next to the aunt's house, and there is a small alley next to it. Go west in the small alley, and the third tofu shop is next to the uphill. The one with double red doors is his house. You just call it Wen Ma. , he will come out and promise you.”

After hearing this, Dai'an said, "No more? The little furnace maker followed Xingxiang—trivial and wandering. I'll listen to you if you say it again, lest I forget."

Then Chen Jingji said it again, Dai'an said: "It's so short! Wait until I ride the horse."

At the same time, he took out the big white horse and rode on it. After a whip, the horse ran [足孝] jumped and went straight.Exit East Street, go south, pass Tongren Bridge Archway, and enter from Wangjia Lane. Sure enough, there is a patrol hall in the middle, and there is also a broken stone bridge opposite the door. The first half of the red wall is Dabei Nunnery. Poe, carrying a brand of tofu, saw a mother drying horse dung at the door.Dai'an immediately asked: "Old mother, is there a matchmaker here, Mrs. Wen?"

The mother said, "It's right next door."

Dai'an came to his door, and there were indeed two red doors facing each other. He jumped off his horse, knocked on the door with a whip and shouted, "Is Mrs. Wen at home?"

His son Wen [纟堂] opened the door and asked, "Where did you come from?"

Dai'an said: "I'm from Ximen's father's house in front of the county gate, please come and teach Wen's mother to go quickly."

Wen [纟堂] heard that he had come from Ti Xing Ximen's mansion, so he asked him to sit at home.Nathan tied the horse and went inside.Seeing that Lishi paper is offered on it, how many people counted it into the incense account there.Half a day took Zhongcha out and said, "My mother is gone. I told you at home, let's go tomorrow morning."

Dai'an said: "Seeing that the donkey is at home, how can he push it away?"

Turn sideways and walk back.Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wen and his daughter-in-law were having tea with a few Taoist mothers, and they couldn't hide. He saw him and said, "Isn't this Wen's mother? Just go back and I'm not at home!"

Sister-in-law Wen smiled and wished Dai'an all the blessings, and said, "Brother tired, I will have tea at home today. I don't know what daddy is calling me for. I'll go tomorrow morning."

Dai'an said: "I only thought that I came to look for you, who knows what he is doing. It turns out that you live in this card shop and taught me to catch a little dizzy."

Sister-in-law Wen said: "In recent years, the old man has bought maids, played matchmakers, and used flowers. He has Lao Feng, Mrs. Xue, and Mrs. Wang walking around. He is so rare! Boom, I guess your Liu Niang is gone, so I must teach me to inquire about marriage for him, to make up for your Liu Niang's nest."

Dai'an said: "I don't know. Where you go, my father has something to tell you."

Sister-in-law Wen said: "In that case, brother, sit down for a while, and when I send the tea party away, I will go with you."

Dai'an said: "My father was furious at home waiting for him. He ordered and ordered, and told you to go quickly. After talking to you, he has to go to Luo Tongzhi's house to have a drink in the house."

Mrs. Wen said: "Forget it, I'll go with you after I get some snacks for you to eat."

Dai'an said, "Don't eat."

Mrs. Wen asked, "Did your aunt give birth to a baby?"

Dai'an said, "I haven't seen you yet."

Mrs. Wen sent Dai'an to eat some snacks, put on her clothes, and said, "You ride a horse first, and I will walk slowly."

Dai'an said: "Your old man has a donkey, why don't you prepare to ride it?"

Sister-in-law Wen said: "How about I ask for a donkey? The donkey is from the tofu shop next door. Let me feed it in my yard, and you will be mine."

Dai'an said: "I remember you, old man, came riding a donkey. Where did you go?"

Sister-in-law Wen said: "Here we are! That year, we hanged the girl and sold the old house in a lawsuit. Let's say it's a donkey!"

Dai'an said: "It doesn't matter if the house is full or not, and it's fine to keep the donkey with you sooner or later. Nothing else, I see him drop a big whip from time to time."

Sister-in-law Wen laughed and said, "Weird monkey, short lifespan, my old lady only listens to good things, and listens to them. I haven't seen you for a few years, and you've learned to be so smooth-tongued. Tomorrow, you'll teach me to look for a marriage!"

Dai'an said: "My horse walks fast. If you walk, the equator will be worn too late. Don't mess with me? You get on the horse too, let's ride two on top of each other."

Sister-in-law Wen said: "My little short-lived boy, I'm not your insinuation! People on the street look at me, it's weird."

Dai'an said: "No, you prepare a donkey in the tofu shop and ride it. Just go there and wait for me to send him the money."

Mrs. Wen said: "This is still talking."

On the one hand, Jiaowen [纟堂] prepared the donkey, put on the veil, and rode on it. Dai'an walked with him and went to Ximen Qing's house.It's exactly: if you want to seek beauty from a deep boudoir, you can rely on red leaves as a good match.
