Chapter 180 Not only life and death

After eating the donkey meat bun, Dong Changying returned to the Ye family. It was almost midnight. Ye Duling was in poor health and went to bed early. Because the couple had always been separated, there would be no differences between the two when they were sleeping.

Dong Changying burned some hot water himself, closed the door and took a hot bath, as the saying goes: I think about my fill and warmth, and the hunger and cold are aroused by the robbery. Dong Changying had enough food and drink, took a hot bath, and changed into new clothes. After sitting by the bed, she couldn't help feeling distracted. Yan Yunlou Ling Luchun's fair fingers that were not touching the spring water gently tweaked the strings of the piano, and the delicate and weak appearance of her wife lying in the warm bedding.

The rice wine drunk in the food hall was brewed by the fat shopkeeper himself. It tasted smooth, but the stamina was strong enough. Now sitting on the edge of the bed, Dong Changying couldn't help feeling dizzy.

After more than a year of adulthood, the couple had never had sex. Many people knew about this in the Ye family, and even many servants pointed at him, a filial and honest man behind his back. Dong Changying knew about these, but he pretended not to know.

What else can a loser who lives under someone else's roof?

Why did my father agree to the engagement of the Ye family? Didn’t he just like the two bad money in the Ye family? The smell of money on the businessman is the most shameful thing for noble literati, but it is also what he wants most in his heart.

He said no, but his body was very honest.

After coming to the Ye family, Dong Changying then understood what luxury and enjoyment meant. Whether it is food, clothing, or other aspects, the Ye family has never been short of Dong Changying. Since he entered the Ye family, he suddenly felt that the poor were suddenly rich. In the past, when he was in the Dong family, his entire family spent only two taels of silver a month, but after coming to the Ye family, he took advantage of just one table and only six taels of silver apart, let alone asking people to sing small songs or go to the gambling stage to play.

Gradually, Dong Changying became accustomed to this lifestyle. He was a romantic and famous man, regardless of his country, his future and fame, but he was still lost in a pile of weeds and soil.

However, the strange morning brought by the heavy rain a few days ago made Dong Changying suddenly wake up. Everyone's growth may be a matter of a moment. Dong Changying felt that his growth was that morning.

But in fact, he was thinking too much.

A scholar like him who grew up in an environment of self-pity and grievances since childhood has long viewed the world with different perspectives. When they lose power, they can drink and make themselves humble themselves, but when they get power, they can immediately sing their teeth and claws, and have no bottom line to get evil.

Such scholars can never give them a clear definition. Perhaps as Mr. Yang Gong said a few years ago, the most unlimited and most feared thing for scholars to do evil.

They studied the law to better violate the law.

They care about the people in order to oppress the people more deeply.

They visited their superiors in order to deceive their superiors more ruthlessly.

When there is no authority in hand, their slogans are louder than anyone else, which is to benefit the people and benevolence and righteousness. But if there is a little power in their hands, they can immediately change their ugly face. If they can make more money, they can make more money. If they can squeeze more money, they can squeeze more money.

Perhaps it was because of this ugly face that was originally in his heart, but they didn't dare to reveal it if the environment was not there.

Dong Changying thought that what he had done these days was to make progress and work hard, but just to deceive himself. Everything he did now was just a different form of madness. He still believed that the merchant family was just a bed bug full of money, and still believed that women should be the Three Bonds and Five Constant husbands and wives at home to take care of their husbands and children.

The reason why Dong Changying chose this is because he thinks that you can do business well, so I, a scholar, can do it better. If you slap all of you in the face, then, what I say or what I say?

Originally, these ideas were buried deep in Dong Changying's heart, but now after drinking a big meal, my emotions have experienced such great ups and downs, and the ideas that have been buried in my heart have finally emerged.

Lightning continued to thunder outside the window, and heavy rain was still pouring down.

Dong Changying picked up the teapot and wanted to drink a sip of water to quench his thirst, but it was empty.

After sighing helplessly, Dong Changying stood up and was about to find a copper pot to fill the water, but she got up and walked to the door. Looking at the light yellow dim lights revealed in the window of another house next door, her heart felt like she was scratched by hundreds of cat claws.

I have been married for more than a year, so why should I fulfill my family?

She has already looked at me with admiration these days, and the day we can complete our family is not far away, right?

A woman has a thinner skin, is it okay for me to take the initiative?

It is actually her honor to be able to live up to my filial and honest family with me.

Thinking of this, Dong Changying's lustful heart unknowingly grew a little bit bigger, and her lustful courage unknowingly expanded a little bit more.

He reached out and picked up the oil paper umbrella behind the door frame, knocked on the left and right, and then carried the oil paper umbrella into the rain curtain in the yard, and carried the robe of his robe in one hand, slowly walked towards Ye Tuling's room.

When he arrived at the door, Dong Changying put away the oil-paper umbrella, reached out to wipe the sweat beads from his forehead, and reached out to lock the door.

The sound of the door was not loud, but after it rang twice, Ye Duling's maid gently knocked the door from inside. After seeing that Dong Changying was knocking on the door, a look of surprise appeared on her little face. She was wearing a moon-white pajama. As soon as she opened the door, she came in with wind and rain. The maid subconsciously shivered and tilted her head and asked in a low voice: "I'm so late, my son-in-law is not resting yet, what's wrong with coming here?"

Dong Changying took a deep breath, and then a sincere smile accumulated on her face: "Ling'er is already asleep?"

The maid's delicate body shivered, and then replied in a low voice: "Report to my son-in-law, the lady is not in good health these days, and she has some insomnia and night sweats. It may be because of overwork. She has not looked very good these days. She has had time tonight, so she asked Manager Ge to boil some medicines for nourishing the spirit. After drinking these medicines, the lady went to bed early. If the son-in-law has nothing important to do, she will come back tomorrow. The lady has been sleeping less these days. Finally, she went to bed so early today. If there is nothing important, let the lady sleep for a while."

Dong Changying pursed her lips: "Ling'er has been busy with business these days, right?"

The maid nodded helplessly: "It's not the past few days that the lady has controlled more than seventeen medicine shops. She is so busy that she rarely has time to rest, especially in the past few days, it seems that there is something wrong with our medicinal materials shop, so the lady is particularly busy these days."

"What big thing happened? What big thing happened?" Dong Changying asked curiously.

The maid obviously felt a little cold, but because the son-in-law was standing opposite her, she could only shrink her shoulders and respond patiently: "It is said that... it is said that the second master went to Jiangnan Road to get the medicinal materials for summer. They had some accidents on the way, so there were not many medicinal materials brought back this time, but no one expected that this summer this year was so unhappy. After so many days of heavy rain, many summer diseases occurred too much than last year. The medicinal materials in our medicinal shop were a little stretched, and the lady was busy trying to find a way to dispatch them."

Speaking of this, the maid was obviously a little impatient, but she said patiently: "Son-in-law, it's getting late now and it's still raining heavily outside. If there is nothing important, you should go back to sleep, and I'll go to serve the lady."

Dong Changying took a deep breath and said calmly: "That's right, there's nothing big about it. There's something wrong with the copper pot in my room. I know nothing about this. If you have time, go and take a look for me?"

The maid looked embarrassed, "Son-in-law, this...is not good, it's already so late, this...is not very convenient. Otherwise, you can bear it. By tomorrow morning, I will find you a new copper pot on the side of the choreography."

Dong Changying, who was slightly drunk, had an angry look on his face, "Hehe, Ling'er is really more and more capable of disciplineing servants. The maids around him are getting bigger and bigger. Although I am a married woman, I, Dong, is at least a son-in-law of the Ye family. Is the Ye family's order? Is there any etiquette? I asked you to take a copper pot today and push it. If it is tomorrow, you will not be able to ride on Mr. Ye's head!"

There was no dirty word in Dong Changying's words, but the words were very heavy. From the inside out, the maid was worthless. The maid grew up with Ye Duling since childhood. Although her identity was quite special, she had never seen such a mean scholar as Dong Changying. After Dong Changying finished these words, the maid's tears began to spin in her eyes, but she pursed her lips and couldn't say a word.

"Although I am old, not everyone can step on my neck." A thick and powerful words came from behind. Dong Changying was shocked and turned around in fear. He saw Ye Yuanhai, the head of the Ye family with an oil paper umbrella, standing under the rain pavilion, with a serious expression.

Dong Changying was almost lost in his heart, and immediately turned around and saluted respectfully: "Xiao Xu... has seen... have seen Lord Dongshu!"
