The happy life of a prodigal

This is second, the most important thing is that the entire capital of Kyoto dared to write the proclamation in front of Marquis Xin'an!

This is glory!

Therefore, at the wine table, many people looked at Xu Ju with admiration.

At the same time, he kept praising and flattering.

"Master Xu is really courageous. The world has been suffering from thieves for a long time, but no one dares to say it. Master Xu speaks uprightly and is not afraid of such powerful people. He is really a role model for my generation!"

"Yes, yes! I should really learn from Mr. Xu. If nothing else, it's that call-to-action essay. I've been working hard for a hundred years, and I'm afraid I can't write it. It's magnificent. Every sentence is the key point, it is really powerful!"

"All of you here are my own people. I have something to say. Who is this thief? He is called Xiaoge Lao by many despicable and shameless villains. He also has brain disease, is arrogant and unreasonable, and often There is no logic in doing things, and it is arrogant.

No matter what he did, he was able to get away in the end. Such a person, Mr. Xu wrote this proclamation and offended him, but in the end he was only locked up in the Yamen of the Kyoto Prefecture for two days, and came out again so peacefully.

Ladies and gentlemen, tell me, what does this mean? "

When everyone heard this, they all looked at each other with different expressions.

After a while, someone finally dared to stand up and speak: "It's not easy, it means that the gangster's energy is exhausted! Now, both His Majesty and Kang Wang are extremely disgusted with that gangster. is a good example.

Dear friends, I might as well tell the truth. In the past, I was afraid of the bandits.

There is no way, there are old and young in the family, if it is an ordinary person, even if they are reasonable, they can argue with him.

But Fang thief, if you disobey his wishes even a little bit, I'm afraid that your family will be destroyed.

I'm afraid that just because I wrote an article, lasted a memorial, or said a word from the bottom of my heart, I will be targeted by the thieves.

But at that time, His Majesty was deceived by Fang Thief again, and regarded Fang Thief as his confidant, no matter what absurd things he did, His Majesty would justify him.

I dare not say anything, dare not do anything, and write nothing!

It's different now!

The traitor Fang is exhausted, I have already made a decision, after I exchange cups with you today, I will take the paper, ink, brush and inkstone, follow the example of Master Xu, and write an article asking Fang to rest!

I also want His Majesty, His Highness King Kang, and the people all over the world to see what kind of bastard this thief is! "

As soon as the voice fell, there was an instant applause.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Chapter 8: Do You Have a Conscience?

After the man said this, he was naturally elated when he heard so many applause.

However, at this time, there was a noise outside.

"Xu, you bastard, you have the guts to do it, but you don't have the guts to admit it!"

The voice sounded extremely sharp, and without thinking about it, it must be the voice of a shrew.

As for the surname Xu.

Everyone looked at each other and looked at Xu Ju in unison.

Xu Ju was a little confused.

After being dazed, he suddenly thought of something, his face changed suddenly, and he subconsciously walked out of the window and looked downstairs.

Downstairs, a fat middle-aged woman who seemed to weigh hundreds of kilograms was standing there with a half-grown child, pointing at the restaurant with one hand, putting the other hand on her waist, and using a sharp The voice scolded: "Xu, you are still not a man!"

The child was standing next to the middle-aged woman, apparently ignorant of the world, ignorant of everything, eating candy.

It looks cautious, as if that cheap sugar figurine is some kind of delicacy, extremely cherished.

This combination fell into the eyes of everyone, so it naturally made everyone feel novel.

Inevitably, many people gathered around, wanting to see what happened.

As time went by, the number of onlookers increased, and within a short while, thousands of people had gathered.

One layer inside, one layer outside.

According to common sense, it is common for shrews to swear in the street, but there are not so many people watching.

It's because the shrew's voice is too shrill, and the child looks really pitiful.

Moreover, this shrew is different from ordinary shrews, it seems that there is something hidden, so naturally it can attract many people to find out.

The middle-aged woman just scolded at first, and her throat hurt a little from scolding, and she was a little tired.

Turning his head and preparing to rest, he saw so many people watching and pointing.

She was startled.

Then, after thinking about it, he walked up to the crowd again and said loudly: "Fellow townsmen, please judge me, that kid Xu's family has been poor since he was a child, and our family spent so much money for him to study and pay for his education." He obtained fame.

After taking the exam for more than ten years, I finally came to Kyoto Prefecture and disappeared.

I searched for him a few times, but couldn't find him. I thought this person was gone. Only a few days ago, I found out that he passed the exam, became rich and honored, and despised me!

Back then, our family was frugal in order to support him in his studies, and there were children. These years, we have not had enough food and clothing.

I also gave him a widow..."

The middle-aged woman was aggressive at first, as if she must seek justice, but when she said this, she couldn't restrain herself anymore under her pretended strong appearance, her eyes were already red.

His voice also became a little trembling, and he cried loudly: "After all these years, if you despise me, you can divorce me, and I will treat this shit as wrong, and I will admit it myself.

You are silent, you don’t even have a letter, and you have a child. They are your own flesh and blood. If you are hungry, cold, hot, hungry, or warm, don’t you feel bad?

After reading books for so many years, I lost my conscience in the end, I...I..."

Having said that, I couldn't bear the sadness in my heart again, and started to cry.

Seeing his mother crying, the child next to him leaned forward and grabbed the corner of his mother's clothes, weeping too, and whispered: "Mother, don't cry, don't cry..."

He was still young, so he didn't know what happened.

How can I know what my mother has experienced in these years.

Even the suffering that befalls himself he takes for granted.

Just these few days, the uncle who found his mother gave them a lot of money so that he could have enough to eat.

He still thought that everyone in the world was the same as him, and they only ate one meal a day.

How did he know that the meat he had expected to eat once a year was disliked by his father, but he couldn't finish it.

He doesn't know anything.

All he knew was that his mother was crying, so he cried too...

At first, the onlookers thought it was just a shrew who provoked another shrew, just ordinary shrews cursing.

At this moment, when I heard these words, I understood.

It turned out to be the story of a heartless man.

Things about heartbreakers happen from time to time in this capital city.

However, looking at the ragged mother and child and hearing this miserable description, no one can help but feel a sense of sadness in their hearts.

After this desolation comes anger.

Who can restrain their anger after seeing this scene?

Then, the crowd began to discuss.

"This mother and son are really pitiful, hey...the heartless man has become a Jinshi, he is naturally rich and rich, and he can't enjoy it. I'm afraid it's wine and meat, but his wife and his child can't even eat. I don't have any clothes to wear, it's really pitiful..."

"Besides, the money that the heartless man paid for his studies was saved by his wife's frugality. How can he bear it, how can he bear it."

"I never thought that there would be such a person in this court. It's really disgusting! It's disgusting!"

"Sister, I am also from the Central Plains, where is your home? What is the name of the heartless man you are looking for? Live there, we will take you there!

This matter, no matter what it is, there must be an explanation. The heartbroken man can't just let it go, and he can't be cheap! "

"Well said! Don't let him go cheap! He won the Jinshi, was rich and powerful, and kicked his wife and children when he turned around. There is no such thing in this world. Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness are essential for a gentleman. It is also what His Majesty said, the civil and military officials of the dynasty must have.

He deserves it too! ? He...tui! "

The crowd was just discussing at the beginning, but it gradually turned into anger when they came again.

Indeed, such a thing, but anyone who has some sympathy knows, can't restrain the anger in his heart.

The middle-aged woman's eyes were still red when she saw this scene. She pointed to the restaurant in front of her and said loudly, "I've already inquired about it, and the heartbroken man is here! His surname is Xu. What's going on!

I came here today not for money, nor for status, nor for glory and wealth. I just want to explain that we have lived so hard all these years and wrote so many letters to him. Just pretend not to see anything.

I want to know if his heart and lungs are black, and if he still has even a little bit of conscience! "

Although she is a middle-aged woman who came from the countryside, she doesn't know a single word, and she doesn't know any rules, but she speaks with extreme propriety.

When people listen to it, they can instantly feel a sense of empathy.

For a moment, everyone was angry, and said loudly: "Well said!"

Chapter 8

The middle-aged woman's expression also changed when she heard the voice next to her ear, she was not as desperate as before.

Coupled with the fact that her son was crying beside her, her mood eased a little, and she was about to say something.

Before he opened his mouth, he took a casual glance and saw a familiar face by the window on the second floor of the restaurant not far away.

Once upon a time, that face appeared in the dream one after another.

She opened her eyes, closed her eyes, it was all about this face.

From the original expectation, to the later panic, to the later disappointment, and finally to the numbness.

Her mood changed day by day.

She had given up even the hope that one day she would ever see that face again.

However, at this moment, she saw it again!

"Xu sentence! You heartless, I saw you, you can't hide this! You come out for me, and you give me an explanation!"

The middle-aged woman pointed to the second floor and roared hoarsely.

The child next to her was startled when she heard the sound.

The onlookers were also taken aback, but they quickly reacted and looked towards the second floor in unison.

Sure enough, the window was open there, but there was no one there.

Obviously, someone took a look at it, and then shrank back after realizing that something was wrong. It was like a tortoise.

Hearing the hoarse roar of the middle-aged woman next to their ears, everyone was also angry.

They spontaneously surrounded the restaurant and shouted in unison: "Xu Ju, don't try to run away today!"

"If you run away today, we are not human!"

As they said, some people went to block the front door, and some people went to block the back door.

All in all, it's a bit like a siege.

After the middle-aged woman yelled twice, her voice was already hoarse, her eyes were still red, she stared at the window, exhausted her last strength, and said loudly: "Xu Ju, as long as you are still a man, come out to see me." One side, see your son one side!

After so many years, do you still have a conscience! "

After the words fell, all the onlookers shouted in unison: "Xu Ju, do you still have a conscience!"

The cry was purely spontaneous, without anyone taking the lead or any other factors.

It's simply because they feel sorry for the mother and child, and they are angry with the heartless man named Xu Ju.

But soon someone came to his senses and said in a low voice: "Xu Ju? I remember that in the case of the Sixth Division, it was the person who just wrote something yesterday and was imprisoned in the Yamen of the Kyoto Prefecture. That guy seems to be Call Xu Ju!"

Everyone was startled when they heard this, and then seemed to think of something, and said, "That's right! That Mr. Xu seems to be about the same age."

"It never occurred to me that Mr. Xu's benevolence, righteousness and morality, everything he said was benevolent, righteous, propriety, wisdom and trustworthy, but in fact he was such a wolf-hearted thing!"

"Wolf-hearted, calling him a wolf-hearted dog is an insult to wolves and dogs. It would not be a pity to throw such a person into the sea!"

"I knew that I had read the call for proposals yesterday. It was written in a wrong way. It was a piece of rubbish. That's it. There are still many people who read it. They just want Xin'an to live. It's not good.

I have lived such a long life, and I have seen too many people like this!
