228, it's really just playing backgammon (please complete the order)
With this incident, Guo Juren felt that Bai Gui had good moral character and was a trustworthy person.
Otherwise, the average person would not think about whether his body and bones can bear it or not.
The Guo family’s breakfast was much more ordinary than yesterday.
After all, it was my first time to entertain yesterday, so I had to have a good meal.
But it is still relatively rich.
"It's estimated that the snow won't stop for a while, and it will continue to snow for five or six days."
During the meal, the caravan steward said.
He has traveled extensively and seen a lot. With experience, he can estimate how long a snowfall can last.
"After a snowfall, and then the roads are cleared, we have to stay at Jiangjunzhai for at least ten days."
"I wonder how much food Guo Ju's family has..."
the caravan steward asked.
If you want to feed a caravan of hundreds of people, the amount of food is not a small amount.
You have to plan early.
"I'm not bragging. Most of the fields below Jiangjun Slope are my ancestral property. They are close to the Wei River and have good irrigated land. I can't finish the food every year and have to go to the provincial capital to sell..."
Guo Juren slowly twisted the soft yellow shredded tobacco, put it into the chimney, blew on the fire paper with a pop, held the chimney of the hookah with his lips, and two puffs of thick smoke suddenly came out of his nostrils, saying: "Let it go for you."
"Xin, even if you need food, my words are still effective in this area of dozens of miles, and I can borrow food for you."
"It's snowing, it looks like we're not far from the provincial capital, but we don't dare to send horses out to send a message..."
The caravan steward sighed.
The countryside is full of dirt roads, and horses' hooves will slip even if they are covered with cloth. Moreover, the terrain in Guanzhong is not as flat as in the Central Plains. Some places look like a flat river, but when you walk past it, you will find ravines. When it snows, if you are not careful, your horse will stumble.
With Guo Juren's promise, the caravan temporarily stayed at Jiangjunzhai.
However, even if the Guo family's house is a five-story house, it is still crowded with more than a hundred people. The caravan manager gave up his money and rented many houses in Jiangjunzhai for temporary residence. Bai Gui and a few high-status caravan members just
Rest in Guo's wing.
Bai Gui was not in a hurry. It would be delayed for more than ten days if it snowed, which was normal in this era.
Unexpected things happen from time to time.
On the evening of the fourth day, Bai Gui was about to take a rest.
The latch of the wing door jangled slightly.
The footsteps outside were very light. Bai Gui had been practicing martial arts for so long. The cicadas woke up before the autumn wind moved. As soon as his ears moved, he recognized that this was Tian Xiao'e, Guo Juren's concubine.
There is a charcoal brazier in the house for heating, so the house is not very dark, and the orange firelight is reflected on the roof beams and whitewashed walls.
He coughed softly, got out of bed, put on his shoes, and lit a kerosene lamp.
The firelight flickered upwards along the glass bottle, making the whole room much brighter.
Bai Gui put on his robe and opened the door.
"Ms. Bai, you want it..."
When the young woman saw Bai Gui, she immediately became interested and was about to speak.
He was interrupted by Bai Gui.
"Guo Tangke, let's play backgammon for a while."
Bai Gui pointed to the Go chess piece placed on the round table in the side room and smiled lightly.
In the Qing Dynasty, women were generally called "counsel" after marriage.
For example, Chapter 26 of "The Scholars": "When I get home, I will ask my hall guest to talk to him and make sure everything is done." Chapter 27, "Tomorrow, I will bring four pieces of jewelry and I will still ask my hall guest to deliver them."
Give it to him."
In "The Great Changes in the Mountain Country" "Contrary to him, his hall guest has a hot temper."
The guest here refers to married women, inner rooms and the like.
"Lian Wuzi?"
Tian Xiao'e was stunned.
She is the daughter of Tian Xiucai, and she has been from a scholarly family since she was a child. How could she not understand the game of backgammon? It is said that before Yao invented Go, there was a backgammon game among the people, but it was generally not called backgammon, but "Lianwuzi" or "Lianzhu".
, names like "五目碰".
However, it is really a bit unpleasant to play with five children in a row in the dark of night.
But Tian Xiao'e thought about it and realized that this might be the taste of literati.
She twisted her hips, her eyes were watery, and she sat on the round stool very charmingly.
Very moist!
"Play chess!"
Bai Gui sat down, calm and relaxed.
Although he was thinking about having an affair, he thought about it and did it. Guo Juren treated him well, how could he do anything dirty and dirty, but Tian Xiaoe couldn't stop seducing him these days.
…
His hooking up with him was unkind to Guo Juren. But Tian Xiao'e's hooking up with him was another way of saying it.
That night, Tian Xiao'e broke into his room directly.
Although the door of the wing was bolted, the windows were half-closed because of the need for ventilation. The ancients also knew that there might be gas poisoning.
For example, Qin Guan was poisoned by coal gas. It is recorded in "Notes of Plum Blossom Cottage": "Qin Guan once: He was poisoned by coal gas, which caused disasters, dryness and thirst, and he was revived."
Qin Guan had a relatively good ending. During the Kangxi period, Jinshi Feng Tingyue died of coal poisoning on September 16th of the Gengchen year.
Therefore, in the "First Aid Prescription", the method of preventing coal poisoning is specifically explained, "Put a basin of water in the room and make the windows ventilated, then the coal will not cause harm even though it smells bad."
Therefore, a water basin was placed in the wing room and the windows were partially opened to prevent coal poisoning.
If you climb in through the window...,
It’s not a problem, it’s a problem!
Instead of doing this, it is better to welcome them in openly.
Anyway, Tian Xiao'e was just a concubine, and she went to his wing to seduce him. Even if Guo Juren knew about it, he wouldn't blame him much.
In addition, he had some sympathy for Tian Xiao'e. She was married to Guo Juren and was sold to the Guo family by Tian Xiucai. If he could help her, he would help her.
This seems to be incompatible with secular morality, but he is not truly integrated into this era.
Sometimes, he chooses to abide by some rules because such a choice can make the little people live a more suitable and calm life. Breaking the rules wantonly will make the little people feel uncomfortable and panic all day long. He feels happy now.
But for little people, it's like the world is falling apart.
"If the sage removes his wisdom, the people will benefit a hundredfold." - "Tao Te Ching"
Gu Dan...the rules at this time are obviously inappropriate.
Destruction, destruction!
A gentleman hides his weapons and waits for the time to come!
The two began to play chess.
Backgammon is quite interesting. Bai Gui deliberately gave up to Tian Xiaoe, so Tian Xiaoe found it interesting to play backgammon and could beat Bai Gui, a "big official from Ximen".
Time passes unconsciously.
Then from midnight, until... until four or five o'clock in the morning.
The rooster in the backyard crowed.
Then.
Dogs barked repeatedly.
"Ms. Bai...are you really going to be with me for so long?"
A hint of resentment flashed in Tian Xiao'e's eyes. She held the white chess piece with her bare hands, came to her senses, and couldn't help but ask.
"Guo Tang's guest came to visit me tonight because of his elegance."
"Is there any other intention?"
"Mr. Bai is a master of the Spring and Autumn Period. He would never dare to do those things like stealing his wife..."
Bai Gui smiled calmly and continued to drop the sunspots.
Two major hobbies for men.
The first is to coax women from prostitutes to be good, and the second is to coax women from good families into prostitution. Although Tian Xiao'e is not a prostitute, she is similar to a prostitute. He also finds it interesting to pull women from good families to do so.
"Ms. Bai... it's really interesting."
Tian Xiao'e was stunned, stood up and bowed slightly, her posture became more dignified, and continued to play chess with the white piece in hand.
She understood clearly from Bai Gui's words.
Bai Gui knew why she came here. Someone who knew how to read was definitely not a fool who pretended to be stupid. But Bai Gui knew that he left some dignity for her, saying that it was because she wanted to come and play chess, not for anything else.
s things.
I guess...it's a sign of respect for her.
Of course, if ordinary people behaved like this, she would definitely spit. But she took a look at Bai Gui... and felt that it was bearable, and she felt a little grateful in her heart.
After playing for a while, she realized that the time had come and was ready to leave.
"If Guo Tangke... still wants to play Lianwuzi with me in the future, I can also accompany you again."
Bai Gui shook his head and smiled.
Tian Xiao'e ran to him tonight. This matter may or may not be hidden. So what he said was to give Tian Xiao'e a guarantee after the Dong Chuang incident happened, so that she wouldn't have to worry too much about the future.
I held an umbrella for Xunzi.
After seeing Tian Xiao'e, he wouldn't mind holding another umbrella.
Tian Xiao'e walked to the door, thought for a while, and took up her clothes again to say thank you. Although she still had the same curvaceous beauty under the hazy night, her expression and movements at this moment were solemn and solemn, and she had transformed a little in a trance.
…
The next morning, I finished my martial arts practice at the martial arts field in Guo’s backyard.
Guo Juren mentioned this matter.
"With your status as Mr. Bai, if you are able to marry a noble girl like Bai Mansion, you must look down on Xiao'e. I have also done some research. It's because she is debauched. It's also true that when she reaches my level,
At your age, you should be prepared for this when marrying her..."
"Xiao'e, I don't mind that much, I'm just a concubine after all."
Guo Juren put down the "thirty kilograms" stone lock, his face turned red and he was full of energy, and he said with emotion.
As he said, who hasn't read a few books and doesn't know what will happen if he marries a concubine in his prime at his age? But he knows that if he really dares to hook up with any bastard, he will definitely not get a good deal.
However, in front of Bai Gui, Guo Juren had no temper or anger.
First of all, this is Tian Xiao'e's own practice and has nothing to do with Bai Gui. With Bai Gui's status and generosity, if he really wants to get a concubine, it is not a big deal to carry ten or eight of them to the house. Although a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a thief.
It's better not to steal it, but Guo Juren still doesn't think that Tian Xiao'e can reach this point because she is indispensable. Secondly, the custom is such that scholar-bureaucrats stay in the house and give concubines as gifts. It is not an accident, it is just a generous gift from him.
In addition, his servants said that Bai Gui really only played backgammon with Tian Xiao'e and did nothing else.
A gentleman.
Liu Xiahui, sitting in her arms calmly.
"You can take her away when you leave, but just listen to my advice. Such a woman..."
Guo Juren sighed and stopped.
"This is a joke to Guo Juren. I have always been afraid of my wife..."
"When I came back from Yanjing, she told me not to mess with women."
Bai Gui's expression remained unchanged, and he said with a smile: "Our marriage is about to happen, and I don't want any more twists and turns. Let's do this. I will pay some money to redeem her, and I will decide what to do with her after that. I wonder what Guo Juren wants?"
"
He is not a gentleman, but it's not a big deal to be a gentleman sometimes.
And what he was telling Guo Juren at this moment was also true.
As the wedding day approaches, do this...
"The wife's current crime"?!
If Tian Xiao'e had been more bold and proactive, with his determination... maybe he wouldn't be speaking like he is now.
Whether it's Xunzi or Tanabe Ryuko...,
He is more passive!
"Henpecked?"
Guo Juren couldn't help but smile, "It seems that Mr. Bai is the same as me. When I was young, I had strong energy and blood, and I also thought about taking concubines, but my wife stopped me. When I got old, I married into one house."
"I didn't expect Mr. Bai to be like this. It doesn't matter if he is a husband or a wife."
He believed what Bai Gui said.
Because Bai Gui really had no reason to deceive him.
Bai Gui: "..."
