How to break into Liaozhai

Holding a lantern, Wang Zan checked whether his cousin's arms and legs were complete, and made sure that he was present. He patted his shoulder and said, "Survivors will be blessed. We must celebrate when we go back this time."

At this time, Wei Zhixian came out of the official sedan chair, Wang Zan saw him, and hurriedly greeted him, Wei Zhixian said earnestly, "It's true that things have not been peaceful recently, but I never thought that such a thing would happen to us, Xian. Nephew, since your family has come to pick you up, you can go back with your cousin."

"Uncle, then I'll take a step ahead. I'll visit Brother Wei another day. I wonder if he's getting better?"

Wei Xingxian, the county magistrate's son, fell ill on the eve of his departure for the exam, so it was a good thing not to go to Jinan with Wang Rui. After all, at Wei Xingxian's level, it was useless to go.

"It's much better. I've been talking about you for the past few days, saying that you're probably coming back soon, and I'm looking forward to your coming to visit him." Wei Zhixian said with a smile.

"I'll take a break and come to the door."

Wei Zhixian returned to the official sedan chair, and the Wang family watched the Zhixian and his party leave, and chose another way to leave.

Wang Rui rode on the horse and chatted with Wang Zanbiao, and told all the things that happened. Wang Zan was afraid after hearing this: "If anything goes wrong here, you won't be able to come back."

"That's not it, otherwise I'll have to summon my soul."

"When you go home this time, your father must ask you to marry a daughter-in-law, take several concubines, and give birth to several sons." Wang Zan said enviously: "Beautiful wife and beautiful concubine, you can enjoy the wealth of everyone." Blessed."

This cousin is good in everything, but he is lustful. With the Hedong lion at home, he will continue to be lustful after being beaten.

When they arrived at the entrance of the Wang family mansion, someone had already reported back in advance, so Wang Rui's father, Wang Yongde, and a group of servants were already waiting at the door. Wang Rui just showed up at the entrance of the alley, and there was a burst of cheers in front of him, as if welcoming a triumphant general .

Just as Wang Rui got off his horse, his father Wang Yongde came up to meet him, with tears in his eyes: "My son, fortunately you are safe and sound."

His mother, Mrs. Zhao, hugged her daughter and wiped away her tears.

Zhao's natal family was a rich man in Lin County. After marrying into Wang's family, she gave birth to a son named Wang Rui, and three years later she gave birth to a daughter named Qing Yuan, who is about to reach her age now.

In addition to Wang Yongde's family, several people from the side branches of the Wang family came out to pick up Wang Rui, including Wang Zan's family.

After receiving Wang Rui, everyone put down their hearts and stopped blowing the cold wind at the door. They hugged Wang Rui and walked into the house.

After entering the main room, Wang Yongde ordered to go down and pass the dishes, so as to calm down his precious son.

"Rui'er, you scared us to death. The boat capsized. Why don't you find a local inn to stay in, write a letter to your family, and ask your family to send someone to pick you up. How dangerous it is for you to drive home with only one book boy. .”

Wang Rui couldn't explain it clearly either. Candidates were always in a strange state of mind. Anyway, they were all focused on rushing home: "Yeah, it's better to stay in the local area. Hurry back and meet the corpse."

Qing Yuan snuggled into her mother's arms, shivering: "It sounds scary."

"It's even more frightening to see. The nails are like steel hooks, two or three inches long!" Wang Rui gestured at Qing Yuan with all his teeth and claws, and Qing Yuan covered his eyes and hugged his mother in fright.

Mrs. Zhao gave her son a reproachful look: "The boss is not young, and he still scares your sister."

Seeing that his sister was scared, Wang Rui became serious and told the whole story.

Wang Yongde said angrily: "The most hateful thing is the gang of bald donkeys in Lanruo Temple. If you don't save them, don't even think about getting a copper coin from us for incense money in the future."

Mrs. Zhao frowned: "That's right, I wanted to do a French ceremony next month, forget it."

During the conversation, the dishes were passed on. Wang Rui looked at the delicious food on the table and the servants around him, and couldn't help but take a deep breath. This is the reason why he was in a hurry to go home. After the torment of the township examination, I don't want to hurry back to this warm golden nest.

In recent days, Wang Rui "sleep in the open air". Seeing the delicious food on the table at this time, he immediately salivates and eats it.

Seeing his son eating vigorously, Wang Yongde said with tears in his eyes: "Slow down, slow down, really, what kind of torture has my son become? Exams are a life of torture." Suddenly thought of something, and asked: "By the way, you How did you do in the township examination? Are you confident that you will be on the list?"

Wang Rui almost spat out the braised lion's head, but considering hygiene, he swallowed it and stretched his neck: "I tried my best."

"Just try your best, try your best." Wang Yongde let out a bold statement: "It doesn't matter if you don't do well in the exam, as long as your son is safe and sound, you will survive this time and relax. Dad will give you 800 taels of silver tomorrow. Go out and play!"

Going out with the money is exactly the life Wang Rui longed for, but he said calmly on the surface: "I have to rest first."

"That's right, you must take good care of your health. My son is really not easy." Wang Yongde served his son with food, his eyes full of love: "It doesn't matter if you fail the exam this time, son, you are still young, take the exam slowly. "He has studied all his life, and he is still a boy. His son is a scholar at a young age. It is not easy to be honored as a scholar.

Seeing that his father was not in a hurry to force him, Wang Rui was completely relieved.

After dinner, Wang Rui asked the servant girl to fetch water, took a bath, and fell asleep happily with his head covered, until he woke up from hunger at noon the next day.

He stretched himself: "The comfortable days are back—"

Regardless of the dangers of the world itself, Wang Rui's life has always been relatively comfortable. He usually spends his days at the county school, eating, drinking and having fun with his friends. As long as there are people in the county, he can play as he wants. He is good friends with the county magistrate. He had money to spare, so he basically walked sideways in Xinyang County.

At home, it is even more clothes to stretch out hands to eat and open mouth. For example, when Wang Rui just woke up, the servant girl serving him brought tea and a spittoon, asked him to rinse his mouth, brought warm water to wash his face, and then dressed him according to the weather of the day .The clothes are naturally silk and satin. Rich people make a lot of clothes, and they can't wear them all. They don't wear heavy clothes every day.It's not that he wastes it, it's that the material of the clothes is so precious that you can't help but wash them, and you can only throw them away when they get dirty.

After lunch, Wang Rui was full of energy, took a folding fan, and went for a walk in the garden to breathe.

Along the way, I met several little maids who were working. They all recognized Wang Rui and greeted him one after another. They passed by like inspecting soldiers.After strolling to the garden, Wang Rui took a few deep breaths and said happily, "The air is nice and fresh—"

The garden is quiet. Although the flowers wither in autumn, the trees are well arranged and the atmosphere is fresh and pleasant.

Suddenly, a loud noise broke the quiet situation.

"You still dare to open your eyes and talk nonsense?! Just now I clearly saw your thief eyes staring at the little maid! Hehe? You said you didn't watch it, and you said you didn't watch it?!" The woman scolded in a low voice. Voice.

"Oh, stop talking nonsense. I didn't even watch it. There are people and people, so stop shouting." A man said.

The man's voice was quite familiar, and Wang Rui frowned. Isn't this the voice of his cousin Wang Zan? Sure enough, he saw Wang Zan and a woman coming from a distance, accusing each other. The woman, Wang Rui recognized, belonged to Wang Zan. His wife, Chen Shi, is a hot-tempered vinegar jar.

Chen said indignantly: "What's the matter, do you dare to be obsessed with sex but afraid of people talking about it?"

Wang Zan said in embarrassment: "Brother Rui is here, so you should say a few words less."

Wang Rui didn't want to get involved in the couple's affairs, so he said with a smile: "I remember I have something to do, you guys go ahead." After finishing speaking, he turned around and ran away. Mrs. Chen is notoriously unreasonable. The favorite is to cry, make trouble and hang himself, and he can't afford to provoke him.

Seeing that Wang Rui avoided walking away, Mrs. Chen simply let go, put her hips on her hips, scolded her husband severely, and then walked away twisting her waist.

Wang Zan wiped the spittle off his face, only feeling that the house was stuffy, so he went out dejectedly to relax.

At noon, all households were either eating or taking a nap. There were few passers-by in the alley. He walked alone, thinking of his wife's always pretending to be domineering, and couldn't help saying: "Damn woman, which man doesn't care about you?" Wife and four concubines, why are you so fond of jealousy?!" Rubbing his face: "It's hard for me."

While muttering, from the corner of the eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a woman walking towards him, Yaoyao Qiaoqiao, in her teens, with obsequious eyebrows and a bag in her arms, her waist twisted and twisted as she walked, making her waist appear The limbs are slender and the buttocks are plump.

Wang Zan's eyeballs immediately stuck to the woman's body. When the woman found out, she was not angry. Instead, she snorted and said, "Young master, what do you see? Is there anything special about my slave's house?"

He was overjoyed, and quickly struck up a conversation: "I see you are a weak woman walking on your own, just curious."

The woman snorted and said: "You are also traveling alone. Besides, I have my own difficulties. You can't relieve my worries. What's the use of asking?"

Wang Zan was sticky, and smiled flatteringly: "I don't know what difficulties the girl has, as long as you are willing to tell me, I can do it, and I will solve your problems for you."

The woman thought for a while, her eyes turned red, and she choked with sobs, "My parents sold me to a wealthy family as a concubine for money, but his wife wouldn't allow me. Every time I had to beat or scold, I couldn't bear it, so I packed up and ran here , now I am homeless and afraid of being caught by them, I really have nowhere to go."

"The hateful lady, the vinegar pot, the river east lion, and the hag can't tolerate even a weak woman." Wang Zan felt the same way, scolded the woman he had never met, and said, patting his chest, "Don't be sad." , this matter is on me, isn't it just a place to live? I'll find you a place."

When the woman heard this, her brows were filled with joy, and she bowed and said, "Thank you, young master, I don't know how to repay you."

Seeing her enchanting figure, Wang Zan couldn't help swallowing, put his arms around her shoulders and said, "It's easy to say, come with me."

Where to place the woman is a bit difficult for him. It is definitely not possible at home, and he will be eaten by a hag. He does not have a house outside the mansion, but he has already promised, so he has to place the woman no matter what.

Suddenly, he had an idea, and there was a ready-made place - Wang Rui's study.

The study was built in the most remote and quiet corner of the hutong in the Wang family compound, so that Wang Rui could study with peace of mind. Now that Wang Rui has just finished the rural examination and is waiting for the results to be released, he will not come to study in the study.

This is where the woman can rest temporarily.

Wang Zan led her to Wang Rui's study, and asked with concern, "Can you tell me your name?"

The woman licked her lower lip and smiled winkingly: "My family's name is You Feng."
