Qingxiang didn't know the name, and Chu Yunli wasn't surprised at all.
After all, for Qingxiang, these are other people's business. It's okay to just listen to them as a joke, but they don't really take it to heart.
Chu Yunli thanked her with a smile, and ordered six more plates of snacks to take away in food boxes. The snacks and food boxes in this teahouse were not cheap, and Qingxiang immediately beamed. When sending her out, he invited her again and again: "Girl, please be regular."
Come."
After walking out of the teahouse, Chu Yunli was about to rent a carriage and go home. Before she walked a few steps, she suddenly saw a figure sneaking around in the alley. She had always been more concerned about these things, so she looked over carefully and found out that it was a figure.
acquaintance.
Yang Changyu actually came after him.
Seeing her, Yang Changyu felt magnanimous. His eyes fell on the food box in her hand and he said sourly: "Are you here for tea?"
Chu Yunli nodded and asked, "Why are you here?"
Yang Changyu looked at the bustling teahouse not far away: "You told me that the woman worked here. By the way, did you ask for me?"
"I only heard that she recently lived with a scholar. It seems that the man is still supported by her." When Chu Yunli said this, Yang Changyu's face turned pale.
Even though Yang Changyu was prepared, she still couldn't accept the truth. She pinched her thigh and managed to calm down: "Is it Chen Shilin?"
Chu Yunli told the truth: "I don't know."
She didn't even say that the man was Lu Sanya's fellow villager.
Yang Changyu was on the verge of collapse.
Chu Yunli didn't pay much attention and found a carriage to go home. Now the Yang family has moved to the outer city to rent with others, and the yard next door is being renovated every day. Until night, Yang Changyu didn't come over.
Yang Changyu returned to his home.
She had never been to where the Yang family lived now, and it took a lot of effort to find out. Because they lived in such a remote place, it was already dark when she found the small courtyard shared by the Yang family.
A strong man opened the door and looked her up and down: "Who are you looking for?"
Yang Changyu didn't like the look in his eyes: "I'm looking for my brother. My brother is Tong Sheng."
Yang Changhua was not ready to pass the scholar examination, and because something happened at home recently, it was reasonable for him to fail. He was depressed for two days at first, but he quickly picked himself up. Later he was busy moving, and after settling in
, and focused on the book again.
The ancestors and grandsons of the Liu family have already said that the whole family is extremely kind to him. If he wants to, he can go to school in the future, but he doesn't want to see the rest of the Yang family again.
Yang Changhua himself is thin-skinned. After these things happened, he was embarrassed to go to the Liu family again. He knew that he would be criticized by other disciples. But if he didn't go, he wouldn't have the money to study in other schools. There would be no guidance and he would not pass the exam.
.
The family was in such a difficult situation now, and he only knew how to read, so he still planned to go there shamelessly, but it was too far away from the Liu family and he couldn't go there every day. He simply spent all his time reading except sleeping. Almost as soon as he moved here,
He became a celebrity around him.
"Yang Tongsheng's sister." The strong man's eyes narrowed a little, and he turned around and shouted: "Auntie, your daughter who was married to the country is back."
This loud voice could be heard not only in this courtyard but also in the surrounding area. Yang Changyu only felt humiliated.
Yang's mother also thought this was a bad thing. It was not a good thing for a city girl to marry in the suburbs. What's more, Yang Changyu married in such a remote place, and her husband's family was extremely poor. Really, Yang's mother was too embarrassed to mention it to anyone.
and son-in-law and family.
It was a rare occasion for her daughter to come back. She suppressed her displeasure because everyone in her family was weak, so she did not dare to argue with the strong man: "Chang Yu, come in quickly."
Yang Changyu saw that the house was dilapidated and old. The tables were missing legs and were padded with bricks. There was some coarse grain paste on them, and there was a bed in the corner. The key was that the house did not face the sun at all, and it was not dark yet.
, it was already dark inside.
Yang Changhua was squatting at the door reading a book. When his sister came back, he only glanced here and then looked away.
Yang Changyu was very dissatisfied with her brother's attitude towards her, but she couldn't say it directly. In fact, she had noticed her mother's partiality many years ago and never said anything bad about her brother in front of her mother. She complained: "I will marry
There are some good things in the countryside, but you still preach about them everywhere."
Yang's mother also accidentally revealed that she had regretted it for a long time. Listening to the reproach in her daughter's words, she said unhappily: "You have already married, and you are still afraid of what others will say?"
"Originally, I didn't want to get married." Yang Changyu had been having a hard time recently. She really wanted to go back and kill the person who wanted to marry Chen Shilin. She later thought about it. She wanted to marry so much at that time, but it wasn't because she wanted to marry.
She liked him so much, but she didn't want her mother to get her wish. Because she was angry with her mother, she deliberately chose someone so poor and promising.
Now it seems that he has no idea where his future lies... Even if he does pass the exam, the person who will accompany him may not be her.
Yang Changyu felt uncomfortable, so he said something unpleasant: "If you hadn't wanted to take advantage of my marriage, I wouldn't have married him!"
Mother Yang's eyes widened: "I have told you before that you will not live a good life if you marry him. I have said all the good things to you, but you can't even listen to a word of it... The one I want you to like more will sell you out? Changyu, I
I have everything planned for you, and the person you should blame the least is me."
Yang Changyu turned away, his eye circles already red.
Seeing her daughter crying, Mother Yang felt no pity in her heart. It was okay not to propose marriage. Whenever she mentioned this, she would inevitably think of her original plan.
It's so frustrating to live in this wretched place, and I worry about someone walking in the door at night. If my daughter had been more obedient and willing to help the family, she would have married in this city. This would never be the case now.
"do not Cry."
Yang Changyu was so sad that he lay on the musty-smelling bed and cried loudly.
Mother Yang was particularly irritated: "I told you to stop crying. Didn't you hear me?"
Yang Changyu couldn't help it.
In fact, there is no place for her to live in this house. Fortunately, Yang's father will not come back at night. When he comes back, he can squeeze in with Yang Changhua, so she can stay in the yard for the night.
Even so, the owner still came to the door the next day and asked for more room fees.
Mother Yang wished she could break the coin in half and send her boss away, twitching with distress: "You like the Chen family so much, so don't come back."
Listening to his mother's cynicism, Yang Changyu was unwilling to speak out about his situation.
Two days later, Chu Yunli was arranging embroidery threads with Liu Mu, when there was another knock on the door. Her arms were sore, so she took the lead to open the door.
Yang Changyu stood at the door. Her face was pale, as if she was ill.
"Feiyao, can you accompany me for a while?"
Chu Yunli didn't refuse, and asked curiously: "Where to go?"
Yang Changyu said weakly: "I found out where they live, but I don't dare to go alone."
"Let your mother accompany you." Mother Liu stuck her head out and said, "Feiyao is pregnant, so it's not good for her to run around."
Hearing this, Yang Changyu looked at Chu Yunli's belly and became increasingly bitter: "I can't find anyone to accompany me, so you can just watch from a distance."
At this moment, Yang Changyu was dressed in cloth, with patches on the hidden areas, and was very thin. Mother Liu had watched her grow up, and she had never seen her so pitiful, but it was none of her business no matter how pitiful she was. She had nothing to do with it.
Forget about the girl in front of you framing your daughter.
If Fei Yao hadn't escaped cleverly, it would have been her daughter who suffered now, and the whole family would have followed Xuan Xin.
"no!"
Chen Shilin ruined Liu Feiyao's life, and he was going to be unlucky. Of course, Chu Yunli had to join in the fun. When Yang Changyu made trouble with him, it would be good to help spread the word and let more people come and watch the joke.
"Mom, she is so pitiful, let's go with her!"
Mother Liu looked disapproving.
Chu Yunli pulled her aside and whispered what she had learned.
Mother Liu's face was full of surprise: "Really?"
Chu Yunli nodded: "Yang Changyu must be looking for trouble with him. He almost killed me. I want to go and have fun."
Liu's mother did not refute and turned around to go back to change clothes. She also wanted to see the quarrel between Yang Changyu and Chen Shilin, and once again remind herself of the thrill.
It's true that the Yang family is very pitiful nowadays. Sometimes she can be soft-hearted...but she can't be soft-hearted.
Chen Shilin lived close to the inner city. Although Lu Sanya had saved some money over the years, it was not much. If she had been more generous, she would have spent it all long ago. She was used to being frugal, and it took a lot of effort to save her money.
At the end of the alley, I found a small courtyard with only one room.
You can see the yard to the end at a glance. There are small sheds on the left and right sides, one is the kitchen and the other is the toilet. Before Yang Changyu came over, he repeatedly begged the mother and daughter to accompany her, but they were still refused.
When they arrived at the door, she was not willing to go all the way in vain, so she had the courage to come over.
The person who opened the door was Chen Shilin. When he saw the person in front of him, he frowned: "Why are you here?"
Yang Changyu had thought a lot before she came. She was the wife of his matchmaker, and she couldn't be weak at this time. So, she stretched out her hand and pushed him away, then squeezed in forcefully.
There was movement in the kitchen, Yang Changyu ran over and saw Lu Sanya cooking inside.
Lu Sanya heard the knock on the door and knew someone was coming. She thought it was a neighbor. When she noticed someone at the kitchen door, she subconsciously looked up and recognized Yang Changyu. Her expression changed. She had been in the teahouse for many years and was very familiar with it.
Somewhat quick-witted, he immediately broke out into a smile: "Back then, I learned to cook from Aunt Chen. Brother Shilin came back to me when he missed his mother. Who brought you here?"
Listening to this ridiculous reason, Yang Changyu just wanted to sneer, and she said indifferently: "I have been to a teahouse."
Lu Sanya lowered her eyes: "I am an old man in the teahouse and I am very good at entertaining guests. They are jealous of me and say bad things about me behind my back. Look at your face...what did they arrange for me?"
Yang Changyu was furious, turned around and ran towards the main room. During the process, she ran into Chen Shilin who came to stop her. She reached out and pushed the man and squeezed directly into the house.
There was only one room, with only one bed in it, and a man's and a woman's clothes on the simple screen. Looking at this situation, Yang Changyu felt his eyes sting. He turned around and glared at Chen Shilin who followed him: "Are you there?"
I have a family outside, so no wonder you treat me so coldly when you come back..." She considered herself to be marrying down when she married Chen Shilin. After all, she lived next door to the school, and it was easy to marry a boy. The family here was better off than Chen Shilin's.
All of them. Among the candidates that Mother Yang found for her, which one was not better than him?
She gave up so many people from well-off families and chose him alone. Firstly, because his family background was not good, he could make her mother's plans fail. Secondly, because his family background was not good enough, he couldn't take a concubine, and he couldn't go out to have sex with women.
She was willing to accompany him through hard times because all she wanted was his single-mindedness. As a result, the hard times did not end, but his single-mindedness was directed at others.
The two have been husband and wife here for half a year. In other words, when Yang Changyu was being made things difficult by his evil mother-in-law in the countryside, he hugged another woman to warm his bed.
Chen Shilin looked helpless: "Listen to my explanation."
Yang Changyu was furious: "Are you saying that you came to her because you missed your mother? Are you looking for her to drink milk?"
These words were so unpleasant that Chen Shilin stepped forward and slapped him hard.
Yang Changyu felt pain on her cheek, but what was more painful was in her heart. She covered her face and glared at the man in front of her: "Chen Shilin, I will marry you only if I am blind."
Chen Shilin lived with Lu Sanya outside out of necessity. He was not a lustful person, or in other words, he was unwilling to ruin his reputation with women, but he was short of money and did not dare to be with others outside.
He was so close to each other that he was afraid of being invited to drink with him. A man was careful at all times, and he was really frustrated. One time, he couldn't resist the invitation of a friend and had to attend a poetry gathering. The main reason was that there was a particularly famous master in the poetry gathering. If he accepted him as his wife,
Disciple, it’s only a matter of time before you pass the exam to become a scholar.
He was tempted, but participating in the poetry meeting would cost money, and it was either a treat or all the participants would share the tea price equally. The price of the agreed place was not expensive, but even so, he couldn't afford it.
In fact, he could ask others to borrow it, but this would be a bit of an insult. If he took the money to participate in the poetry meeting, others would not know what to say about him in private. Finally, he thought of Lu Sanya.
Lu Sanya was a girl from the village. She had a deep love for him and planned everything for him. She would never tell these things to anyone.
He calculated well, but Lu Sanya had a hard time saving some money, and she didn't want to spend it on him in vain. It was okay to give her money, but she had to live with her like a husband and wife.
Lu Sanya's original words were: She couldn't be a real couple with him, so being a fake couple for a while would be her dream come true.
Chen Shilin would be lying if he said he was not moved by such deep friendship. In addition, he was in urgent need of money, so he moved here half-heartedly.
After all, he was still worried about the Yang family, or in other words, he was worried about his brother-in-law. So he deliberately chose a remote courtyard close to the inner city. This place was half an hour away from the courtyard where the Yang family currently lived, and it was not close to the Liu family. Moreover,
Almost no one in the neighborhood knew him. He usually left early and came home late, so no one noticed him.
But Yang Changyu still came to find him.
Chen Shilin looked at the woman in front of him with a face full of grief and anger, and regretted it after taking action: "Chang Yu, in my heart, you will always be my wife."
Yang Changyu seemed very angry, but in fact she had been mentally prepared for this on the way here, and her anger quickly dissipated. At this moment, she was particularly disappointed with him, but she also understood that she was married to him, and if she ignored him and divorced
Marry again, not to mention that Chen Shilin would never agree if she couldn't afford to lose this person. Even if she left successfully, she wouldn't be able to choose a good family for her second marriage.
In other words, she and the man in front of her both prospered and suffered losses, and the relationship between husband and wife had to be maintained.
She didn't act bad at the man. When she saw Lu Sanya chasing him to the door worriedly, she rushed over and pointed her sharp nails at her face to say, "You vixen, I'll ruin your face. Look at you."
How to seduce people..."
Lu Sanya had encountered many unreasonable guests or those who wanted to bully her in the teahouse over the years. She dispersed smartly: "Sister-in-law, if you have something to say, please tell me."
Chen Shilin hurriedly stepped forward to break up the fight, and waited until the two of them were completely separated. He was already covered in sweat, and just as he was about to take a breath, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
There were many people gathered around.
"Let me see, is that his wife? She doesn't look bad, except she's a little darker. She's much prettier than this."
"I heard that his original wife was a girl from the city, and the person he lived with was his childhood sweetheart who grew up together..."
"Yeah, that's so shameless. He spent money to study. His childhood sweetheart must not be able to afford it, so he went to find a girl from a wealthy family. He married a girl from a wealthy family and didn't treat her well. He took the money and his childhood sweetheart to live freely outside.
, I have pity on his first wife, I couldn’t win her sincerity even after offering money, and now I have to be beaten by him! Bah! She’s still a scholar, she’s really nothing!”
…
Chen Shilin felt like his head was exploding when he heard this.
What is this all about?
These people are just making things up. When did Yang Changyu give him money?
It was also said that he used his original wife’s money to support his childhood sweetheart. Now the situation is obviously the other way around. It’s only right that his childhood sweetheart used his money to support him!
Of course, being a man is not a glorious thing no matter who raises him. It was hard for him to tell the difference, so he stepped forward and closed the door: "There's nothing to see. Let's all leave."
"It looks good." An aunt held down the door panel and refused to let him close it: "We all like to see the first wife beat up the vixen. By the way, since you hide your beauty in the golden house, don't be afraid of others looking at her, don't be shameless!"
Everyone on the side agreed.
But all women especially hate these vixens who seduced men's hearts. The only ones who dare to run over to watch the excitement are the real wives. Naturally, they want to help Yang Changyu.
Chen Shilin became angry: "This is my private matter, and you are violating the law by being here."
The aunt laughed loudly: "Who are you scaring?"
Someone else answered: "Are you embarrassed to report this kind of thing to the official?"
"If he has the nerve to go, let's go to the court and help his wife testify." A young voice came from the crowd: "We all know how long he has lived here. It's just enough for the adults to see these scholars.
conduct!"
According to the current law, only a person of the fourth rank can have one concubine, and only those of the fourth rank can have two concubines. Taking maids is not included in this category, but if word spreads, the reputation will definitely be affected.
Chen Shilin's face turned pale, and the young voice just now was very familiar. It was clearly Liu Feiyao. Someone else might have come to join in the fun. Liu Feiyao would definitely not let him go.
Everyone was making a lot of noise and things got really bad. Yang Changyu said nothing, covered his face and squatted in the yard crying.
Lu Sanya's heart was in her throat. She knew that what happened today would be difficult to end. Even if these people dispersed, Chen Shilin would probably not live with her again if he was frightened.
People were still outside, so Lu Sanya had an idea. She turned around and ran back into the house, jumped out of the back window, took the ladder she had prepared, climbed up the wall, and jumped out.
Behind that is a small alley that can only allow one person to walk through. Lu Sanya has long thought that if one day someone who cannot be allowed to discover the relationship between the two of them comes to the door, the two of them will jump out from here.
.
Lu Sanya avoided the mud under her feet and couldn't help but smile bitterly. She thought she would never need it in her lifetime, but now she was just glad that she had taken precautions.
Yang Changyu kept crying and gathered everyone's sympathy. When he accidentally looked up, he realized that Lu Sanya was no longer there.
Chen Shilin kept going around in circles apologizing to her, and the day had to go on, so she just accepted it and went to the door to thank everyone.
Everyone also knew in their hearts that no matter what the trouble was, the couple had to get together to live together in the end. Therefore, everyone was not surprised when they saw Yang Changyu not pursuing the matter. They gathered together in twos and threes and dispersed with unfulfilled interest.
Chu Yunli stood in the crowd. As soon as the crowd left, the mother and daughter appeared.
Chen Shilin was holding back his anger just now, fearing that these people would go to the Yamen to sue him for hiding their love. Now that they were gone, he suddenly became furious and stepped forward to ask: "Liu Feiyao, are these people the ones you are looking for?"
Coming?"
This small courtyard is at the end. The two of them go out early and come back late. They don't interact with the people around them. Except for the neighbors next door, no one comes here at all. If someone hadn't reminded them, how could those people come here to watch the fun?
?
"Yes!" Chu Yunli said plausibly: "A liar like you should be criticized by thousands of people. Don't be afraid of people seeing you if you do it!"
At this point, she added: "It was Changyu who asked me to watch the fun!"
Chen Shilin: "..."
He turned around and glared at Yang Changyu fiercely: "Really?"
Yang Changyu was dumbfounded: "No, I asked her to accompany me."
Chu Yunli looked innocent: "You are outsiders. When a couple quarrels, you insist on inviting me over to watch. What else is it for me to watch if you don't want me to watch the fun? Then I just met them on the road and invited them to come together...Chang Yu, they can't
Everyone is complaining about you, so you have to thank them properly later."
Yang Changyu: "..." I thank your ancestors.
Chen Shilin looked particularly ugly: "Liu Feiyao, can't you let me go and let yourself go?"
"No!" Chu Yunli held Mother Liu's arm: "I am seeing injustice on the road. If you dare to defraud money and sex in the future, I will bring people to watch. If you are not afraid of embarrassment, you can go ahead and try.
!Someday it will reach the ears of adults..."
Chen Shilin: "..."
