Jianghu a dream

A dream in the rivers and lakes.

The most indispensable thing in the world is wild mandarin ducks.It is not uncommon for the young lady in her boudoir to elope with the young hero.

In the teahouse, the tea drinkers were discussing anecdotes about a certain young lady and a certain young hero.The door curtain rolled up, and a man and woman walked in.

The woman sat down on her own, tapped the table with her fingers, and signaled the man to pour her tea.

The man is very elegant, serving him with all his heart.

Someone nearby looked over and said softly, "Could it be a pair of wild mandarin ducks?"

Unexpectedly, the woman has good hearing, and immediately raised her brows and slapped the table: "Who are you talking about? Who are the wild mandarin ducks? My aunt and grandma are married by a bright matchmaker, and eighteen sedan chairs were carried into their house."

The man hurriedly dissuaded her, and said with a smile: "They are joking, don't be so arrogant."

The person next to me was very calm, "I said, grandma, since you are so eloquent, you should also tell a story for everyone to listen to. Drinking tea is not interesting."

The woman smiled cheerfully, "Just tell me what you're talking about, and just listen to me."

My name is Liu Rumei, and I am the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Liu in the capital.My husband's name is Yang Sihua, and he is my fiancé since childhood.

My husband is the chief scribe of the Imperial Academy, and is in charge of the annual spring election, which is the imperial examination.

Because of my outstanding talent since I was a child, the Holy Spirit allowed me to assist my husband in marking the test papers.

I remember that day, among the many examination papers, I picked one at random.When you unfold it, it is a very beautiful fu.It's been several years, and I don't remember how well it was written. I just remember that when I showed it to my husband, he was also amazed.

This answer sheet was indeed ranked first, and the next step was the palace examination.At that time, I pestered my husband and insisted on taking a look at the respondent's appearance.My husband was so entangled with me that I promised to invite him to the house after the palace examination, but unfortunately he didn't.

In the general election that year, Zhuangyuan Lang was a 26-year-old young man.In the palace examination, he wrote the "Ten Treatises on Governing the Country" which made the Holy Dragon's heart very happy.

What's more, the number one scholar is a handsome man. During that time, all the new designs from the tailor shop and the fresh fragrance powder from other places were all snatched up. They wore them and sprayed them on these girls in the capital who were dreaming of sex. up.

It was precisely because he was so outstanding that he became the center of the party after the palace examination.The ladies of the high-ranking officials and aristocratic families all looked at each other secretly, and expressed their hearts secretly.Pity my husband, squeezed in a bunch of girls, trying to invite him is always pushed away.

However, I also went to that party in my father's honor.As soon as I went, I pulled my husband away first, lest he be squeezed in the pile of powder and get smelled all over.

I was standing next to my father, and the number one scholar was going to come to toast.I watched him walk slowly, Zhilan Yushu, a modest gentleman, like a gemstone like jade, generous and generous.He raised a glass of wine, neither humble nor overbearing: "Xiaosheng Gu Duanji, I will ask the Prime Minister to give me more advice in the future."

He didn't say words like caring, nor was he too respectful.My father is very satisfied with him.

The second place and Tanhualang are pitiful, they are also good characters with literary talents, but compared with this one, they are really inferior.

But Tanhualang was my father's student, and he also studied with me, so I went over to see him.

Shen Yu stood in the corner, he was still young and had just reached the crown.No wonder no one came to see it.

I smiled and said, "Why bother to be sad? You are still young, how can you compare with Gu Duanji. He is really a gentleman."

Shen Yu said: "I thought that this time I would definitely win the top spot, but unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin came along halfway. It seems that the person that women in the capital want to marry the most is about to change again."

I teased: "You pervert, look at her, Liu Xiahui, you're so impatient here, you just like girls so much."

He sighed melancholy: "My fair lady, a gentleman is so sweet."

I pushed him, "You still don't go to toast the number one scholar, you don't know the proper etiquette, be careful your father will teach you."

He picked up a cup at random and passed by.I saw him go, and I went over and twisted my husband's ear: "Why are you standing there stupidly, are you addicted to watching these girls? Don't come home with me."

My husband was also stupid, and followed me home before Zhuang Yuanlang gave him a toast.

On the car home, my father sighed and told me: "It's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity that I only have your daughter, and it's a pity that you married that idiot, Ah Hua. Otherwise, I would go up to give my daughter the same as those ministers. Say kiss."

I laughed and said, "That person is indeed a first-class person, but in terms of character, I still like Ah Hua. Back then, he won the first prize, and he was so stupid that he rushed to marry me and didn't even attend the meeting. After so many years, I’m still just a little bachelor.”

I thought that I would be relieved if I was lucky enough to see such characters, but who knew that we still had some intersections.

The first time I formally spoke with him was two years later. He was still unmarried, but his position was promoted rapidly.I heard from my father that he had no backer and was honest and upright. He forcibly pushed down my primary school student Shen Yu, and made Shen Yu want to go home angrily.

Qunfang Pavilion is a famous restaurant, but it is expensive.With my husband's little salary, I can't afford daily life at all.So every time Shen Yu invited me to go, I was extremely happy.

One day, Shen Yu came to invite me again, but my husband happened to be away.I happily got into the sedan chair with him, and he told me with a serious face that he invited another person today, that is, Gu Duanji, who was astonished at the court.But Shen Yu was so oppressed by him that he wanted to end it on his own, and he tried his best to invite him to dinner in order to establish a good relationship.

Shen Yu begged me to say something nice for him, in my name as a talented woman resounding throughout the capital.I also answered him seriously: "As long as there is food to eat, anything is fine."

So the two of us happily went upstairs.Shen Yu booked a seat by the window, it is said that the view is good and the environment is good.As soon as I entered, I saw Gu Duanji sitting by the window, stroking the small carved window in a daze.Seeing us coming in, he raised his head suddenly, with strange emotions in his eyes, hope, pain and despair mixed together.

Shen Yu didn't have such good insight as I did. He walked over by himself, sat down next to Gu Duanji, and even called me over.

I was a little worried and asked Gu Duanji: "Young Master Gu, are you okay?"

He shook his head, and said apologetically, "I've been to this place a long time ago, and there's a feeling that things are different."

I laughed: "I think the person who came with Mr. Gu must be someone that Mr. Gu cherishes. Flowers are similar every year, but people are different every year."

Gu Duanji nodded, and then asked Xiaoer to serve.

Obviously it was Shen Yu's treat, but it was the same as Gu Duanji's treat.After half a round of drinking, Shen Yu took a glass of wine and wanted to respectfully serve him a glass.I also spoke for Shen Yu: "Young Master Gu, Shen Yu is not steady, please take care of him in court."

Gu Duanji asked me: "This kid likes fame?"

I said: "Shen Yu is very competitive. I don't know if he likes fame or not, but he has been lazy since he was a child. He is too lazy to leave. He just does something simple and takes the exam to become an official."

Gu Duanji drank Shen Yu's wine thoughtfully.

The banquet ended perfectly, except that Gu Duanji insisted on paying the bill.Shen Yu saw Gu Duanji off at the door, just when my husband came to pick me up, Shen Yu pulled me and asked, "What do you think of Gu Duanji?"

I was in a hurry to go home for supper, and patted his head: "Very good, follow him and do well."

In the car, I couldn't help but ask my husband: "You and Gu Duanji have also worked together for a few months, what do you think of him?"

My husband rested his chin and thought, and said: "This person is very miserable, and I can't explain it clearly. Do you remember? When you were young, you didn't listen to me and insisted on going to the mountains to play, but you got lost. You didn't come back for a few days. That part Time, my mental state is quite similar to his now."

I punched him and asked mysteriously: "Do you think he is a broken sleeve? You said that he has not had any relationship with any woman for two years."

My husband said: "Isn't it okay to guard yourself like a jade? You really care too much."

I was just guessing casually at that time, but who knew, Shen Yu really liked Gu Duanji.

Shen Yu came to me crying that day, and the first sentence at the beginning was: "He rejected me."

I asked, "Her? Who, who rejected you?"

"Gu Duanji!" I was stunned as if struck by a bolt of lightning.

Shen Yu likes women. There is no doubt that I am his cousin. Since he was a child, he has been keen to play house with little girls. He is the father, and the little girl is the mother...

I came back to my senses in a jerk, helped Shen Yu to sit up, and began to question him.

"Didn't you tell me to have a good time with him? He helped me a lot, and I, I don't know why, I like him. I really like him. But he said that he has a lover, and he is waiting for him in the next life."

"I just said, how about you stay with me in this life? He said, no. That's it."

I pinched Shen Yu's face, feeling worried too.

But Shen Yu didn't feel sad for too long, "I keep blocking him, I don't believe it anymore, there is no one who I, Young Master Shen, can't catch up to."

He asked me again: "Sister, if brother-in-law dies, will you be with someone else?"

I scolded him crow mouth, said: "Who knows? I have already regarded him as the only one in the world, but he is not irreplaceable. If I meet another person who can arouse my love, I will be with others. "

He patted his head in frustration: "Okay, but I don't know how to face him."

"He won't care, you do your own thing."

Shen Yu left, but I was a little worried, I couldn't eat any more cakes, and I always felt that something would happen.

As I expected, Shen Yu was dismissed from office, and the reasons were mostly fabricated.He himself was not very sad, and he came to me to have a meal leisurely.

"Sister, it's okay. I'm just having an affair with Gu Duanji. If he doesn't recognize him afterwards, I will be dismissed from office."

I really admire my brother's ability.He ran to harass Gu Duanji every day like a normal person.

Soon after, Shen Yu resumed his official position.Coincidentally, it was another year of imperial examinations.

This year was not peaceful, there were a lot of fraud cases in the examination room, and Gu Duanji, as the chief examiner, could not escape the blame.Since my husband is also one of the examiners, it is inevitable that I will be implicated.We thought it would be better to resign from the office and wander around the world as a pair of mandarin ducks who live together and fly together.

After wandering around and returning to the capital, I heard that Gu Duanji had resigned from office and had already left the capital with no whereabouts.Shen Yu went out to look for Gu Duanji.

However, who knows if he can find it?Will Gu Duanji agree?

The woman ends the story with a smile.

The listeners came one after another: "It's another story that doesn't know the outcome."

The woman took the man's hand and said with a smile: "Let's go, there are Sanqiu Guizi waiting to see. The scenery in the world is so beautiful, it will be a blessing to swim with you."

The two came out hand in hand.
