How to break into Liaozhai

Zhu Erdan carried the judge back to the Hall of Ten Kings, rearranged them, took out the wine and meat, put them on the altar table, and bowed respectfully: "The students are rude, please don't blame me! These are filial wine and meat, if you don't mind, please enjoy them Bar."

"I originally wanted to blame you, but since you are still sensible, let's forget it this time."

Suddenly there was a bell-like voice above his head, which made Zhu Erdan tremble in fright: "Who is talking?" Following the voice, he looked up and saw a figure walking out of the statue of the judge. This figure was exactly the same as a clay sculpture. But alive.

"Judge, Judge?" Zhu Erdan rubbed his eyes: "Have you manifested?"

He has always been dull, although surprised, but not very scared, just staring at the judge who came, unable to move his eyes away in surprise.

"What's so strange about apparitions? Don't you human beings mold the mud tires in the world for us to hope for apparitions? Why, are you afraid of apparitions?"

"I'm not afraid, the student is just happy." Zhu Erdan quickly took the wine and meat from the altar table and handed it to the judge: "Student Sansheng is lucky to be able to meet the adults."

With a wave of the judge's sleeve, there was a table and two chairs in the temple: "Sit down."

Zhu Erdan put down the wine and meat, poured wine for the judge himself: "You use it."

The judge took the wine glass and said heartily: "My surname is Lu, what is your student's name? I see that you are a group of scholars with prostitutes, and you are not a good person. By the way, you even stole my tribute. The cakes are weathered and stiff, but you can’t steal them, are you playing tricks on me?”

"My name is Zhu Erdan, we never mean to play tricks on you." Zhu Erdan told the truth about everything that happened.

Lu Juan pinched his beard and said, "Your literary talent is indeed a problem, no wonder they look down on you and play tricks on you."

There is a strict chain of contempt among literati, and scholars look down on children, which is in line with the rules, not only in the yang world, but also in the underworld.For example, the doggerel written by Zhu Erdan, that is, the classmates talked about it. If it was spread, some angry officials might beat him up, because the spread of nonsense poems is simply insulting to the gentlemen. Scholars discredited.

Zhu Erdan said: "It's impossible, it's born like this, and I see it. However, it's a miracle in life to meet Lu Pan you today, and you may not meet so many people with good literary talent."

Lu Pan laughed loudly, exchanged cups with Zhu Erdan, and got drunk before returning to the clay sculpture.

And because Zhu Erdan had already drunk earlier, he was so drunk that he fell asleep. When he woke up, he found himself lying on the ground, and Lu Pan had long since disappeared.

Are you dreaming?

Zhu Erdan patted his head. Recently, his brain has become more and more difficult to use.

At this moment, the sky was bright, and Zhu Erdan returned to the villa with the dawn light, and the other people in the villa were also drunk, some were sleeping on the table, some were lying on the couch, and so on.

At this time, Wang Rui heard the movement, sat up, rubbed his eyes and said, "You're back? Slow enough."

After being disturbed by Zhu Erdan, everyone gradually woke up. They were led by their servants and went out by car to go home to rest.

Huo Huan chased after Wang Rui just got into his family's carriage. He held the door of the carriage and said, "Brother Wang, I heard from my brother that your family has "New Programming Text", can you lend me a look?"

"It should be there. I'll go back and look for it. If I find it, I'll send someone to send it to you."

But Huo Huan couldn't wait, he wanted to get it now, Wang Rui went back this time, he would sleep and forget about it, and had to wait again: "If Brother Wang doesn't dislike it, I'll go back with you to get it."

Wang Rui yawned: "If you don't feel tired, then come along."

Huo Huan smiled and said, "Very well, I will follow your carriage."

Wang Rui's carriage was in front, Huo Huan's carriage was behind, and they drove towards the city.

Because it snowed all night yesterday, the servants were clearing the snow in the alley of Wang's house at this time, and only after they cleared a road, Wang Rui's carriage entered the alley.

The two got out of the car and chatted while walking, all the way into the study, before Wen Shun and other bookboys got up to serve, Wang Rui went to the study to look for books for Huo Huan himself.

This study is a small study in Wang Rui's courtyard. It is different from the study outside. It is a place for handling simple documents, so it also has a collection of books.

Looking for a gap in the book, he said casually: "You and Wei Xingxian have a tacit understanding. When you come back, no one will say that there are people in that temple."

Huo Huan was taken aback: "Who is it?" The cold wind whistled on the back of his neck.

"Pretend it's not, it's those two cloth merchants. When I went, there was a bonfire in the temple, and the two of them were drinking there. They said they saw you, and they said that your clothes matched."

Huo Huan choked for breath: "I, I didn't see it."

"Impossible, how can such a big person not see it." Huo Huan said seriously in order to prove that he didn't see a ghost.

At this time, I heard someone giggling outside the door, and then the door was thrown open, and Wang Rui's younger sister, Wang Qingyuan, came in with a smile in a silver-white cloak: "Brother, it's snowing so hard, let's build a snowman." ah?"

She loves snow the most. It snowed last night. She was so excited that she didn't sleep well all night. She got up early to play in the snow. When she heard that her brother was back, she came to the study to look for him.

Seeing Qing Yuan, Huo Huan got up and bowed: "Xiaosheng Huo Huan met Miss Wang."

After Qing Yuan politely returned the gift, he stopped talking to him, but went up to pester Wang Rui and said, "Brother, since you came back, you haven't been home all day, so it's hard to find you."

Wang Rui thought, even if I stay at home all day, I can't play with you little girl.At this time, he found the book: "It turned out to be stuffed here, and I found it." Passing the book to Huo Huan, he saw that the other party was looking at his sister distraught.

Huo Huan was young and hadn't seen Wang Qingyuan's beauty so many times in the city, he didn't know how to hide it, and looked at him nakedly.

Wang Rui was angry, why do you and your brother have the same virtue?He stuffed the book into Huo Huan's hand, turned his shoulders and sent him out: "Okay, go back and have a good rest."

Huo Huan was holding the book, but his mind was not on it anymore, he couldn't express the specific feeling, he just felt his heart was beating hard but empty, so he quickly turned his head and looked again, it happened that Qing Yuan was also looking at him, his eyes met , His face turned red.

Seeing this, Wang Ruiquan grabbed Huo Huan by the back collar and dragged him out of the door.

Brat, want to fuck my sister?Go home and go to sleep.

Huo Huan was almost kicked out by Wang Rui. Sitting on the carriage home, he was still in a daze. He had never been attracted to a woman before, but when he met Wang Rui's sister just now, he was surprised. It seemed that in an instant, I felt a feeling that I had never felt before.

He returned home distraught, the Huo family is also a wealthy family in the county, although not as rich as the Wang family, they can still rank among the top few in the city, and there are groups of servants who usually serve around him.

As a result, Huo Huan's emotional situation was quickly noticed by the people around him, and he reported it to the master and wife of the Huo family.

The old lady of the Huo family called the youngest son to ask, and quickly figured out the root cause of the problem. It turned out that the son had grown up and fell in love with a woman. Like a small child, his parents were still worried about him, but now he has become enlightened, and he wants to grow up on his own initiative, very good, very good.

Immediately, a decision was made to ask the Wang family to marry Wang Qingyuan.

The Huo family invited the most eloquent matchmaker in the local area, gave her a lot of money, and asked her to go to the Wang family to talk about marriage. Before the matchmaker brought back the news, the Huo family was very confident. First of all, the situation of the two families was not much different, and his youngest son was 11 years old. He was selected as a scholar at the age of [-], and his future is bright. I believe the Wang family will be very willing to get married.

Ever since Wang Rui "sent" Huo Huan away last time, he turned around and forgot about it. In his eyes, it was just that the young man who had just fallen in love looked at the girl a few more times out of some impulsiveness.

On this day, Wang Rui was called by his parents to discuss some matters. On the way there, he was always worried that he might be taught a lesson by his parents because he was too carefree to touch books recently.

It turned out that it was the Huo family who came to propose marriage to his sister, and his parents asked him about the situation of the Huo family.

Wang Rui has no impression of Huo Huan. Strictly speaking, he must be better than his brother, but the key point is that Huo Huan is still young, and he can't see what kind of virtue he has after puberty. The only thing that can be verified at present is that he is good at studying. Talented, the youngest scholar ever in the county.

But hurting Zhongyong is not without it, it's hard to say.

Wang Ruidao: "This matter is for the younger sister to make up her own mind, and she has to make up her own mind about her own marriage."

Wang Yongde and Zhao Shi thought it made sense, so they ordered the servant girl to invite the young lady over to talk.

Qing Yuan didn't know that her marriage was on the agenda, so she asked curiously after entering the door: "Father and mother, what's the matter with calling your daughter? Eh? My brother is here too?"

Wang Yongde stroked his beard and said with a smile: "The Huo family sent a matchmaker to marry our two families. Don't look at your brother, it's not for him, it's for you. Their family wants to marry you for their youngest son, Huo Huan." .”

Zhao followed with a smile: "We want to hear what you mean."

Wang Rui reminded his younger sister: "It was the boy you saw in the study who came to pick up the books on the day it was snowing." Then he gestured: "So tall."

Inspired by her brother, Qing Yuan thought of that person. After all, she had seen only a handful of men, and the boy that day was one of them. However, that man did not leave any impression on her. Simply put, she had no impression or feeling.

Qing Yuan pouted angrily, not very satisfied: "How old is he?"

Wang Yongde got Huo Huan's birth date from the matchmaker: "He is about your age, only two months younger than you."

"...I don't like people who are younger than me." Qing Yuan said firmly: "Besides, he is also short."

Wang Rui stroked his chin, considered Huo Huan's brother's height, and nodded in agreement: "It is indeed a shortcoming."

In fact, Wang Yongde kind of agrees with this marriage in his heart. In this day and age, men's appearances are all floating clouds. As long as they have fame and fame, any shortcomings can be blown away: "You have a zodiac sign, and you are in the same year. It's not bad to be one or two months younger. of."

After hearing what her father said, Qing Yuan didn't like it even more, and said very resistingly: "I just don't want to do that, besides, the last time he saw me, he kept staring at me, very annoying." Thinking of this, she hated it even more I was afraid that my parents would marry me to that person, so I became more resistant, went to my mother, pestered Zhao Shi and said, "I don't want to marry him."

Mrs. Zhao felt sorry for her daughter, and quickly comforted her: "If you don't marry or marry, just pretend that we haven't mentioned this matter."

At this moment, Qing Yuan pouted and said to her elder brother: "Besides, my elder brother is not married yet, so why worry about my marriage?"

"Indeed, Rui'er, you are old enough, even if you go out to have fun, you should find a wife and take care of the backyard for you."

Seeing that he was about to be dragged into the water, Wang Rui quickly put the topic back on track: "Then let's send someone back to Huo's family, and don't delay them looking for another family's daughter."

"That's right, I will tell the matchmaker later that we, Qingyuan, are still young and we are not in a hurry to get married, so let's forget about the marriage first." Wang Yongde said.

Wang Yongde and Zhao Shi prevaricated this reason to the matchmaker, and the matchmaker returned to Huo's house to reply.

When Huo Huan heard that the Wang family had no intention of getting married, thinking that he would never see the young lady of the Wang family again, he lost his mind and didn't think about eating or drinking.

Seeing his younger brother like this, Huo Ke couldn't care less about resenting Ruiyun and Zhu Erdan, so he immediately worried about his younger brother.

His solution to his younger brother's distress was very simple. He invited him to drink flower wine, but on the way, if he didn't pay attention, his younger brother disappeared. When he found out, his younger brother was wandering around in the street.

When Huo Ke saw that the situation was serious, he quickly invited Wang Rui to his home. It seemed that he wanted to save his brother for the sake of friends.

Wang Rui is also very helpless. If you can't save your brother, then sacrifice my sister. It's hard to force feelings. If you don't like it, you just don't like it.

However, Wang Rui explained the reason why Qing Yuan didn't like Huo Huan, she thought he was younger than herself.

When Huo Huan heard this, not only was he not relieved, but even more depressed. Everything else can be changed, except his age, which means he can't return to his mother's womb and be born early.

Huo Ke had no choice but to persuade his younger brother to let it go. This kind of reason is not something you can change, and the other party is a lady from the Wang family. If it is a girl from another family, she might use some means to force the other party to submit, but the Wang family can't do it. Think about it yourself.

But Huo Huan couldn't think about it, this matter was on his mind, he was depressed every day, and he stopped reading.

On this day, he was wandering in the garden of his home. He said he was wandering, but he was actually out to get some air. He couldn't stay in the house all day, but in the garden, he had no purpose, and walked blankly alone.

Just when Huo Huan was strolling to the Jiuqu Bridge in front of the gazebo, an old servant sweeping the floor came up, and seeing the young master like this, he sighed and said: "I really can't bear to see you like this, don't you? Do you miss that young lady? This old slave has a solution."

Huo Huan woke up suddenly, and immediately asked: "What can you do?"
