Jia Mo
Chapter 73 Hard to Chase
At that time, his mother lived with his grandparents in the town, and the family sold cloth. His mother was a famous "cloth Xishi" in the town.His mother's house is facing the street, with shops in front and people living in the back.There are two floors above and below, a total of four rooms, a clean courtyard, a patio in the middle, and stone bricks covered with oily green moss.On the day his father rescued his mother back home, people from the whole town came to his mother's house. The courtyard was full of people, a sea of people, crowded, those who couldn't sit down squatted on the threshold, stood outside the house, and some climbed up the wall.In a remote town in the south of the Yangtze River, a sword fairy has not been born for hundreds of years, and finally a fairy came to see his father.
His father was held down by the head of the Meng clan, and his grandmother and aunt were holding his mother and weeping.Qi Yin met his grandparents when he was very young, he was an illegitimate child, his grandpa didn't like him, and never looked at him directly.Grandma wiped away tears when she saw him, secretly gave him money as pocket money behind his back, and he always went out barefoot to buy hot soup cakes at the entrance of the alley.At this time, his grandfather was still a middle-aged man with thick limbs and a dark complexion. His grandmother was beautiful, with thin hands and feet, a typical Jiangnan woman.
"Master Qi Xian, your leg..." The old patriarch looked at Qi Shenwei's broken leg.
"It's all the damned wolf demon!" Afu cried and bowed profusely, "In order to save the slaves, Daoist Qi fought the wolf king for [-] rounds. Countless hits, he left in embarrassment, and Daoist Qi..." Afu choked up, covered her face with a veil, "I also broke my leg!"
All four people breathed a sigh of relief, cursing the wolf demon angrily.
Qi Shenwei remained expressionless, not exposing Afu's lies.
From that day on, his father stayed at his mother's house to take care of his leg injury.Grandma cleaned up a clean house for his father, separated from his mother's house by only one wall.His grandfather is quite a man who can't explain it, he hangs around in front of his father every day, talking about the poor sale of cloth this year, and the family can't get rid of it.His father was very knowledgeable and picked a piece of jade pendant for his grandfather. From then on, his grandfather smiled and looked at his father as if he were his own son.
That year, apart from his mother's being taken captive, the biggest event in Grandpa's family was his mother's marriage.There are always people watching at the gate of his natal house, half of them come to appreciate his father's immortal demeanor, and half of them come to see his mother.Even when the sun sets and the moon shines in the quiet town, there will always be a drunk hooligan with his undershirt on, standing downstairs and shouting: "Big girl, come out and talk about yourself! Brother misses you!"
At this time, his grandfather would say to his grandmother who was embroidered with a red cloth: "You can't keep the girl when she grows up. Ayu is already married, but she, the elder sister, stays at home and makes people laugh! You go tomorrow." , looking for a family, the most important thing is that the family has a family, and it is enough to be a wife or a concubine."
There was a lot of noise outside the house, but his father turned a deaf ear to it and sat writing letters under a green bean lamp.His father was so quiet that he was almost indifferent, except for things about monsters, he ignored him.He wrote a letter to Fenghuan to explain the strange man in the mountain. Fenghuan was the closest to Jiangnan, so he sealed the letter and sent it to Fenghuan.Feeling bored, Qi Yin sat on the bed and yawned.
"Afu, you are eighteen," his aunt's voice came through the thin wooden wall, "Hurry up and find a good man to marry. Look at this pig, you can see the sky screaming, you are alive at home A signboard attracts people's attention."
"I'm not going to marry." His mother said.
His aunt said: "You won't fall in love with Qi Xianshi, right? Let me tell you, don't think about it, this kind of man will be gone in a flash, and see if you are blind. We ordinary people, look for The one who walks on the ground will get it."
"Who made him so handsome?" His mother didn't even refute, "Look at his looks, his body, and his demeanor, even if I'm a man, I still miss him."
"Then he doesn't like you either." The aunt said.
"If you don't like it, you don't like it. If you don't like me, think about it? If you think about it, it won't break the law." Afu announced boldly, "I don't just want to, but also dream, and fuck him three hundred times in my dream."
The two women were giggling, they didn't know that a cultivator with sharp ears and eyes could see nothing in front of Qi Shenwei.Qi Yin saw his father's face darken inch by inch, and the fingers holding the brush turned blue.
His aunt scolded: "You shameless rascal, keep your voice down, he's right next door!"
"Oh," Aphra said in a long voice, wistfully, "If only I were a female bandit who knows fairy arts, I would take him into captivity and marry him back home as the king of the village. The cottage, singing and dancing every night."
Qi Shenwei finally couldn't bear it any longer, tapped on the wooden wall with his fingers, and said, "I can hear you, don't say any more."
The next door was quiet for a while, the moonlight poured into the window sill, and everything was silent in the dark night.
After a while, Afu's voice sounded timidly, "Daoist Qi, I was just thinking about it, I didn't think I would actually do that."
"Enough, shut up." Qi Shenwei said darkly.
This is so fucking embarrassing, Qi Yin is embarrassed for his mother.My aunt went back to Wutang the next day, maybe because she didn't have the face to see his father.His father and mother lived under the same roof, and they couldn't see each other when they looked up. Thanks to his mother's thick skin like a city wall, she pretended to be nothing, and went to his father's house every day to collect clothes with a large mahogany basin.His mother washes the sheets and clothes at home, and sometimes solicits other people's clothes to wash to subsidize the family.Clothes are piled together, as high as a mountain.But his mother specially put a basin for his father to rub alone.She was squatting at the bottom of the white flowered patio, wearing looped waistbands, revealing a pair of bluish-white arms.She hummed Jiangnan's little tunes, the soft and mellow tunes, from Lang and sister, lili la la, all the way to his father's house.
Feng Huan's person came soon, he was a smiling young man with a pair of peach blossom eyes, wearing a patched rag robe, sitting cross-legged on a sword, calling people on the threshold.His father went downstairs with difficulty, saw him, and called out: "Qing style."
This turned out to be his fat and bald master!Qi Yin was shocked.
While they were talking, Qi Yin was jumping around, wanting to see if there was any sign of baldness on the top of his master's head.
"In the past few days, I wandered around the south of the Yangtze River a few times. I found five such villages in total. They are all hidden in the deep mountains, far away from each other, and have no connection with each other. What's interesting is that there are only a dozen of them. In the small mountain village where people live, it usually takes a long time to walk outside." Qing Shi put his hands in his hands and said, "What do you think?"
"Deep mountains and old forests, with few people in sight." Qi Shen frowned slightly, "It seems that someone intentionally released moths in an enclosure, but they didn't want to expand the demon trouble."
Hearing this, Qi Yin finally knew what kind of medicine Wu Yuli was practicing.
He's not practicing medicine, he's raising moths.
"I feel the same way. I'll take this demon moth back to take a closer look, you can rest assured here to recuperate." A faint singing sound came from inside, Qing Shi's ears perked up, and he stretched his neck to look in, "Hua girl?"
Qi Shenwei blocked his sight with his hand, Qing Shi looked aside again, Qi Shenwei blocked it again, several times in a row, Qing Shi complained: "Old Qi, you are not righteous. You are only allowed to live with others, and I am not allowed How many times do you take a look?"
"After the matter is over, you can get out." Qi Shenwei closed the door coldly.
Day by day, his parents are gradually able to speak a few words.Even though he was recovering from his injuries, his father kept a strict schedule.He gets up every day when the cock crows, and at noon he is pulled out by his grandfather to discuss the general situation of transvestites and the overall situation of the world, although his father usually keeps silent.In the afternoon, he was pulled out by his grandmother, and a group of mothers-in-law, mothers, aunts and aunts sat around him, nodding and smiling lovingly. Before leaving, someone patted his butt and said with a smile: "You are so strong!"
Qi Shenwei: "..."
His father was not good at words, he didn't know how to refuse, and he didn't know how to express dissatisfaction. He waited for these old aunts to leave with a froze face, turned his head, and saw his mother leaning on the door frame, holding back her laughter.
"Daoist Qi, everyone loves beauty, so don't be surprised." Afu said teasingly.
Qi Shenwei didn't want to talk to her, and left with a cold face.But since then, every time my aunt and aunt came to drink tea, Afu took him to hide in the back alley.The rain in the Wujiang River was falling, and they sat on the door pier, one by one, watching the raindrops pattering down on the tile eaves.Sometimes they can talk a few words with each other.His mother's words are much more strange, she talked about riding a big goose in the countryside when she was a child, pouring hot oil on the feet of a gangster when she was 17, and talking about brushing the fur of the bad-tempered wolf king in Huizhou.His father listened silently, and suddenly asked: "Miss Meng, aren't you afraid?"
"Who says I'm not afraid?" Afu rested her chin on both hands, "When I first entered the wolf monster pile, I was so scared to death. They ripped a person open in front of me! But I said to myself, Meng Afu, cheer up, you are still so young, you have never even touched a man's little hand, how can you die like this!"
Qi Shen choked slightly, and said, "You..."
"I know, pay attention to your words and deeds, I'm a girl." Afu smiled, "I am looking forward to someone coming to rescue me every day. But in our small place, who has the ability? I don't think I'm lucky. Here you come," Afu turned her face and looked at him with crooked eyebrows, "Daoist Qi, you are my lucky star!"
At that time in the south of the Yangtze River, it was a bright and sunny day. Afu looked at him with bright eyes full of smiles.
Qi Yin squatted opposite, staring at her silently.His mother has such a beautiful smile.
Qi Shenwei also looked at her, dazed for a moment, finally coughed, and said: "It's nothing to do with a little effort."
Prudence, look, aren't you tempted?Qi Yin pouted, from his angle, he could just see his father's red ears.
At night, the hooligans hook up with each other and come downstairs to call out as usual.His father finally made a move and summoned Gui Mo to drive them away, so every day there were more screams of "Gou Jianxian killed someone".His mother taught his father to weave grasshoppers and cicadas out of bamboo sticks, and his father affixed charms on these little things, and they would glow and float in the courtyard on a starry night.His father's leg injury was gradually healed, and he could walk a few more steps, so he went to the street with his mother to buy flour, sesame oil, and water chestnut.They sat on the embankment of the green pond, his father learned to peel the lotus pods, and his mother ate them.
Sometimes, his father would sit in the front shop, his mother would stand at the counter and dial the abacus, and he would sit under the curtain of the door. The people outside would come and go, rubbing their shoulders, and the fireworks from the soup and pancake stand would fill the street. A tea house, the aroma of tea fruit drifted across the street and came to them.When there are few customers, his mother hums a song, still Jiangnan minor tunes, still talking about men and sisters, accompanied by a few words about the maple leaves and black-covered boats on the Wujiang River, the lingering tune, as long as the years.
"Hey, Daoist Qi," Afu asked, "What kind of woman do you like?"
"do not like."
"Like men?"
Qi Shenwei: "..."
"Just kidding," Afu smiled with her chin propped up, and pouted at the teahouse opposite, "My grandparents don't want me to stay anymore, they want me to marry someone. Xiao Laiwang, who runs across the hall, is smart and hardworking, what do you think? Is it ok?"
Qi Shen frowned slightly, but said nothing.Xiao Laiwang, his father had seen him a few times, and he got very close to those hooligans, his eyes were oily, and every time he saw his mother, his eyes would go to her breasts.His father didn't like this person very much, as long as this person strayed into the store, his father would insert the Guimei sword and make the store chilly, and the person would shrink his neck and go out.
"There is also the butcher across the street, Lao Hu, who sells pork, who is eight years older than me. There are a few acres of land in the countryside, which seems good." Afu counted on her fingers, "There is Feng Xiucai in Sanshan Lane, who is very knowledgeable. In our ethnology school, I will go to Beijing next year to catch the exam, which is also very good. Daoist Qi, who do you think I should marry?"
Old Hu has a big belly and often leads prostitutes past his mother's shop.Although that Feng Xiucai was honest, he was not someone he could rely on. There were so many Shu Xiucai sitting in the hall that he couldn't support himself.Qi Yin leaned against his mother and looked at his father, his father pursed his lips, unable to tell what he was thinking.
Qi Shenwei was silent for a while, and said, "You should ask who you like, Miss Meng."
"I like you, Daoist Qi." Afu tilted her head and smiled.
"What you like is appearance."
Afu stood there with a long sigh, "Qi Daochang, why do you think I am not a man? My mother often said that I was cast in the wrong fetus, so I should be a boy. If I were a man, I would I don’t need to marry, I can do anything, and I can inherit the family shop. My father is so stubborn that he will not give it to my cousin because I am a girl. I don’t want to marry anyone. Daoist Qi, I want to be a man."
The two of them were silent for a while, and Afu looked up at the blue sky outside the curtain, "God, why don't you give me more meat?"
Qi Shen choked slightly and coughed.He sighed helplessly, "Miss Meng, pay attention to your words and deeds."
"Actually, my parents have already found a good marriage." Afu said suddenly.
Qi Shen was taken aback for a moment.
Afu brushed her hair and put it behind her ear, "Aunt Zhou came here two days ago, do you remember? My mother invited her upstairs to drink tea. Before she left, she looked at my hand. , I looked at my feet again. That’s how women look at you, whether you are white or not, whether you have any disease, whether your feet are big or not, whether you have broken palms, and women with broken palms are unlucky. She seemed quite satisfied, and gave it to me I have a red envelope."
"Her house...how is it?" Qi Shenwei asked hesitantly.
"Her owner is a rich man in our town. She is [-] this year, and she lost her new wife. She probably married me as a continuation. But my family is low, so I can't tell if it's a concubine." Afu looked at him. , pulled the corners of his mouth and laughed, his eyes were hazy, and a tear rolled down the corner of his eyes.The evening sun shone through the bamboo curtains and hit her graceful and beautiful eyebrows, making her face almost transparent under the light.
Qi Shenwei stared at her blankly, without saying a word.
Afu laughed and cried, and said, "Daoist Qi, I'm getting married, congratulations!"
When the maple leaves were turning red, Qi Shenwei's injury finally healed. He bid farewell to the Meng family, and the whole town came out to see him off, including Afu.Qi Shenwei stood on the sword and looked at that presumptuous and flamboyant woman standing by the water of the Wujiang River, with a red rope tied to her big black and shiny braid, and a maroon dress fluttering in the wind, like a strong flame.She kept waving in the crowd and said goodbye loudly. It was clear that so many people were waving and shouting "Taoist, go slowly", but he only saw her face and heard her voice.
He closed his eyes and turned his back. The woman's voice became farther and farther away, and finally dissipated in the wind.
His father was held down by the head of the Meng clan, and his grandmother and aunt were holding his mother and weeping.Qi Yin met his grandparents when he was very young, he was an illegitimate child, his grandpa didn't like him, and never looked at him directly.Grandma wiped away tears when she saw him, secretly gave him money as pocket money behind his back, and he always went out barefoot to buy hot soup cakes at the entrance of the alley.At this time, his grandfather was still a middle-aged man with thick limbs and a dark complexion.

He bid farewell to the Meng family, and the whole town came out to see him off, including Afu.Qi Shenwei stood on the sword and looked at that presumptuous and flamboyant woman standing by the water of the Wujiang River, with a red rope tied to her big black and shiny braid, and a maroon dress fluttering in the wind, like a strong flame.She kept waving in the crowd and said goodbye loudly. It was clear that so many people were waving and shouting "Taoist, go slowly", but he only saw her face and heard her voice.
He closed his eyes and turned his back. The woman's voice became farther and farther away, and finally dissipated in the wind.
