Zaoyi Yamen stood on the awning boat. Looking up, he could see the deck of the bow of the boat. Except for four or five boatmen sitting lazily under the canopy of the bow and smoking cigarettes, no one else could be seen. He did not want to pay attention to the people hired by the boat.
The boatman heard someone in the cabin tuning the piano intermittently. He shouted inside, "Miss Xiaoman, Miss Xiaoman, can you please ask Miss Su to speak?"
The flower window of the painted boat opened, revealing a small face as white as jade. He looked at the Yamen in soap clothes standing on the black boat and shouting. He didn't say anything. Instead, a thin old man about fifty years old came around to the bow from behind and said,
He looked at the sky and saw that the rain had stopped, so he asked the Zaoyi officer: "What can Mr. Zheng Shi say to Miss Su?"
"Master Fu, are you running against me?" Zaoyi Yamen handed over his hand. His surname was Zheng, and his first name was Shi. Others called him Master Zheng Shi, and he accepted it calmly. The thin old man in front of him, Fu Qinghe, was the guard hired by the painting boat. Su Mei
When the boat just parked outside the river embankment, Zheng Shi saw with his own eyes more than a dozen local gangsters from the county boarded the boat to make trouble, punched and kicked his two apprentices, and sent them down the river. In the past two days, there were rumors in the county that Fu Qinghe was in Jiangning.
The famous martial arts master used to run a martial arts gym in Jiangning City, but it fell into disrepair for some reason. He took several of his apprentices to live in prostitution and worked as bodyguards.
Zheng Shixin thought that he was really good at running a whore business. The lowly households in Baisha County did not have prostitution and pleasure status. In his opinion, no matter how famous Su Mei was, it was no different from the open prostitutes and secret prostitutes in Wenchangfang in the county.
After all, those officials were good at this kind of tone. He did not dare to make excuses in front of Fu Qinghe. He only said, "The Lord Dong Yuan is in the county. He is very...very...convinced by Miss Su's righteous deeds.
I'm interested in hosting a banquet...to thank you, I'm definitely not just asking Miss Su to come over and have drinks with you." Zheng Shi tried his best to repeat Ding Zhiru Wen's original words, but he forgot some of them when he came down the mountain embankment, and thought he had said it well.
Dryly, he added another sentence to reveal Ding Zhiru's original intention. He glanced towards the cabin, and there were green shadows floating through the flower window, but no faces could be seen. He was thinking about Baisha County's top brand red green and spending the night there.
Fei Shouting only had two taels of silver, but getting on the boat and listening to these girls playing the piano and singing songs was like sleeping on the red green for five nights. It was really not easy for someone who came from the big city of Jiangning.
"Master Zheng Shi, please wait for a moment. Miss Su is packing up the musical instruments." Fu Qinghe frowned slightly, but did not want to offend the local officials too much. He put Zheng Shi aside first, then turned around and asked Qing Yi who was standing at the bow of the Wupeng boat.
Boy, "How is your Mr. Lin's health?"
"My health is fine. I just sit there all day long, as if I have lost my soul, and don't come out to see anyone..." The young man in Tsing Yi replied casually, and his tone did not show much respect for the so-called Mr. Lin.
He also showed a somewhat bored look.
Fu Qinghe smiled and said: "Please ask Master Zheng to go to the city and see if there are any doctors who can calm down the fright. Miss Su will also feel very sorry for causing Mr. Lin to do this..."
"He's going to fall into the water by himself. What's the matter with Miss Su? Fortunately, Miss Su has been helping me these past two days..." said the young man in Tsing Yi, and then asked the boatman on the bow who was helping to cook the medicine, "Has the medicine been cooked yet?" I couldn't bear it.
He complained, "Fortunately, he is not dead, and I promise that he can go back safely. Even if I have handed over the errand, otherwise I will have to peel off my skin when I go back."
The Mr. Lin mentioned by these three people is sitting in the cabin of the Wupeng cabin - the cabin is small and dimly lit, his face is slightly pale, and he is a young scholar in his early twenties.
He is Lin Fu, a descendant of the Lin family, a wealthy family in Shiliang County, Dongyang Prefecture. He came to Jiangning in the early autumn to take part in the provincial examination. Although he barely made it to the bottom of the list when the results were released, he was still the lucky one among the three thousand reference scholars in Jiangdong. He was so lucky.
Son, the 11 prefectures and 86 counties in Jiangdong only have about 150 in three years.
On the day after the results of the rural examination are released, it is customary for local officials to hold a deer singing banquet to celebrate the new candidates of the provincial examination (because the banquet must sing the deer singing poem in "The Book of Songs Xiaoya", so it is called the deer singing banquet). This is the custom of the year.
At the Luming Banquet, three or five singers will be invited to join in the fun. Lin Fu was astonished when he first met Su Mei, a famous prostitute in Jiangning, at the Luming Banquet. He was obsessed with Su Mei's lustrous beauty and couldn't extricate himself. After the results were released, Lin Fu
Su Mei stayed in Jiangning for half a month. Su Mei invited Du Rong, a wealthy businessman from Jiangning, to Weiyang's hometown to sing music for his father's sixtieth birthday private banquet. Lin Fu also hired Yiyou without knowing what to do. He woke up and
The miao who was invited was frightened to death.
Lin Fu was sitting in the cabin. At this time, he felt that he should be another person, someone who should not belong to this world at all, with another name: Tan Zong.
The bow of the boat hit the dock and trembled slightly. He subconsciously clutched his chest, just like the bullet shot from the window in the dream was still in his body, making him feel stinging. The feeling was so clear...
It's like a dream that you can't shake off when you wake up - in the dream, my name is Tan Zong. After serving as a soldier for several years, he returned home and immigrated with his family overseas. It was a completely Chinese city, no different from China.
Even being treated as a third-class citizen is nothing out of the ordinary. I worked as a helper in a restaurant and met someone on a blind date. If I hadn’t left the restaurant that night with the intention of sending the girl I met on the road who claimed to have a sprained foot to the hospital,
There won’t be so many things happening after the birth.
Tan Zong never thought that the girl was a fishing hook set out by the local security team. He was detained for fifteen days and had to pay a fine in the end. He didn't think about causing any trouble at first. After paying the fine, he lost his job and his target.
Flying away is not a big deal compared to those comrades who died in secret missions. However, he has a very bad temper and couldn't bear it. He made fun of people about it and started fighting.
He slipped and fell down the stairs, broke his neck, and passed away within two days of being sent to the hospital.
Only then did Tan Zong feel that if he couldn't get an explanation for this matter, he would be sorry for the man who slipped and fell to death, and he would die with his eyes open.
After many complaints were ignored, Tan Zong became cruel and waited for an opportunity to go to the bathing center called Bangkok Palace and kidnap the security team members and the leading police officers who had framed him while fishing.
He could use the media to reveal the truth of the matter and get an explanation. Even though he had long thought that he would be waiting for several years in prison, it was still worth it for Tan Zong at this time - people are poor and cheap, and they have nothing to worry about, so they might as well live
More vicious. He thought he had a well-planned plan. After negotiating the terms with the negotiators sent by the police, he threw the boning knife out of the window and wanted to end the farce. However, he completely underestimated the evil intentions of these policemen and they would not tolerate it at all.
He was not allowed to live. When he gave up resistance and relaxed his vigilance, the sniper outside opened fire, and the policeman waiting outside also kicked the door and rushed in. He didn't even know whether he crushed the last policeman's throat and his body.
He was shot more than ten times in a row, and all the strength in his hand was exhausted. Maybe he didn't kill him, ***, it's really a pity...
Although the dream was absurd, it felt real, as if he had lived in a completely different world. The policeman who kidnapped him was shot and died, and his soul unexpectedly entered the body of this young man named Lin Fu - Lin Fu should have fallen into the Baishui River.
He drowned, and they rescued another person.
The overly real feeling is incredible: if Tan Zong's soul is in his body, Lin Fu's memory has not been erased; if it is just a weird dream, he can clearly feel that he has a different brain.
, a different person - seven days ago, he didn't know how to use water, and he would sink like a weight when he fell into the water. At this time, if he wasn't afraid of scaring others, he really wanted to jump into the water and try his water skills...
"I'd better ask Mr. Fu to tell Miss Su that Master Ding is waiting for a reply..." Zheng Shi urged Fu Qinghe at the bow of the boat.
Lin Fu heard the voices outside clearly in the cabin, thinking that Ding Zhiru, the magistrate of Baisha County, really wanted to make excuses to please his immediate boss and asked Su Mei to go ashore to accompany him for a drink. The errand boy Zheng Shi was the torture chamber of Baisha County.
The scribe was also very keen on completing this mission and kept urging him there.
After a while, a soft and delicate female voice came from outside the cabin: "Master Zheng Shi told Ding County Magistrate, Mr. Dong Fu: Su Mei will stop here for ten days to perform and beg for donations. She made the promise in public. Now.
It’s only the eighth day, so it’s not a big deal to just break up today; it’s just that the little girl is from a humble background and doesn’t want to break her promise easily. She also wants to ask Magistrate Ding and Mr. Dong Mansion for your understanding - Magistrate Ding and Mr. Dong Mansion.
If there is a mood, Su Mei can cook wine for each other in the boat, or wait until Su Mei fulfills his promise for ten days before going ashore to apologize to the two adults... Su Mei wrote a note and asked Master Zheng to deliver it to
That's enough for you two adults." He declined without saying anything.
Although the mausoleum guarding officials in Jiangning and the scholars from Xixi Academy who stayed in Beijing did not have any real power, they were really good at talking, and I dare say that officials in the government and the public were afraid that something would fall into their hands; Lin Fu thought to Weiyang Magistrate Dong
The original reason for coming to Baisha County was to inspect the disaster situation. There was no way he could stay in Baisha for three more days just to see a woman from Leji. Of course, he couldn't board a ship to see her.
"Then I will go back to report to Dingzhi County..."
Listening to the footsteps on the bow of the boat, Lin Fu thought that Zheng Shi had retreated in the face of difficulties. After a while, he heard Su Mei asking Zhao Neng outside: "Brother Zhao Neng, how is Mr. Lin's recovery? Do you want to invite me again?"
Doctor, can you please take two doses of medicine?"
Listening to this voice, a beautiful and charming face appeared in front of Lin Fu's eyes - Su Mei was famous for her beauty when she opened a performance in Jizi Lane, Jiangning at the age of fourteen. She was still famous for her beauty at this time.
Not yet nineteen years old - I thought: If in the future, a girl of her age would still be ignorant of worldly affairs and a coquettish girl enjoying the pampering of her family and boyfriend. At this time, Su Mei was working hard to deal with the powerful, reluctantly
Keep out the mud without getting stained.
Not dyeing at this time does not mean that you will never dye it. This is the same as a pack of wolves staring at a piece of fat. This piece of fat can be temporarily safe. Could it be that this piece of fat can really change your destiny?
Lin Fu thought about Su Mei's affairs calmly, becoming more and more certain that he had only retained the memory of his body, and no longer had the dizzying obsession with Su Mei. He thought that he was really dizzy before.
Anyway, even if you succeed in the provincial examination, your situation in the Lin family will be somewhat better, but you will still be a member of the Lin family's common branch. Even if you can become an official, you will only be a low-ranking local official. The people in Jianye City are attracted to Su Mei and covet him.
There are countless dignitaries and literati. Du Rong, who invited Su Mei to Weiyang this time, cannot be considered a big role among these people. What qualifications does Lin Fu have to win the favor of Su Mei, who is famous all over Jianghuai?
?Besides, Su Mei is very fond of Chen Mingzhe, Jieyuan, who ranked first in high school in the provincial examination, but she has already made up her mind in private, and has no thoughts about him, Lin Fu.
Perhaps for Su Mei, it would be her best fate to wait until Chen Mingzhe goes to Yanjing to take the high school entrance examination next year and still consider her love to marry her as a concubine and add a legend of a scholar and beautiful woman to the world.
Now that Lin Fu is no longer infatuated with Su Mei, he can naturally understand that he should not have anything to do with such a woman. Regardless of whether he is Lin Fu or Tan Zong, he has lived again, but he cannot waste this opportunity.
Lin Fu made up his mind to leave Baisha County tomorrow and plan his future life carefully.
Although he retains the memory of his body, this world still gives Lin Fu a sense of alienation and strangeness separated by a layer of veil. Even if it is a strange world, he still has to struggle hard. He cannot be as cowardly as Lin Fu.
Living in confusion cannot be like Tan Zong struggling at the bottom and being fished without the strength to resist.
