red and white

After a meal, Mu Gesheng did the dishes until midnight.

"I've decided, I won't call him Little Doctor anymore." Mu Gesheng shook off the water from his hands, jumped onto the eaves, and threw a pot of wine to Song Wentong, "I'll call him three or nine days."

Song Wentong raised his hand to take it, "What are you doing?"

"You see that he is deserted and alone, but he has never smiled before, as if his face was covered with snow, isn't it just three or nine days." Mu Gesheng plausibly said, "Anyone who wants to stand by his side in summer will definitely relieve the heat. Cool down."

This is the truth, Chai Shuxin is cold from head to toe, probably because of his good tutoring, it doesn't make people feel offensive, but he is indeed polite and distant, with cold eyes.

"Don't make trouble for others." Song Wentong said: "The Yao family is the most secular one among the seven. He is very busy as the head of the family, so you are the only one who makes trouble when you are full every day."

"I've only met him three times, okay? Why did it become more troublesome?" Mu Gesheng raised his eyebrows, "I heard from the third child that you were just adopted by Master back then, and you often fought with him. Knocked out baby teeth."

"Fuck you, why didn't you say that I beat him for half a month and couldn't get out of bed?" Song Wentong took a big sip of wine, "At that time, my mother had just died, and I was very annoyed. I didn't beat him in the whole Ginkgo Study people."

Song Wentong's mother is Mozi of the previous generation, a kind-hearted person who loves kindness and hatred. She fell in love with Guan Shanyue's oiran lady when she was walking in the rivers and lakes.Mu Gesheng heard from his master that when the oiran died, the previous generation Mozi went to Fengdu alone, stepping on the case in the hall of the underworld to ask the judge to release him, which disturbed the whole underworld.Wu Zixu's father tried to persuade him to fight, but he was kicked back to the underworld.

After mediating with many parties, a compromise was finally found. The Yin Division authorized the oiran to stay at Naihe Bridge for five years, while the previous generation of Mozi wanted to leave descendants to inherit the Mohist lineage.When Xin Mozi was five years old, the two of them could be reincarnated together and become destined for the afterlife.

"When I was five years old, I went to see her off, and saw her daughter-in-law sitting on the bridge and playing the pipa." Song Wentong said, "She threw the knife and ran over with her skirt, and the whole Naihe Bridge was looking at them. "

"At first I looked down on my mother, thinking she was useless, and she would die or live for a woman." Song Wentong scratched his head, "But when I stood there holding the knife, I was also dumbstruck, thinking that I could Marrying such a beautiful person home is worthy of being my mother."

"As expected of my aunt, as expected of you." Mu Gesheng laughed when he heard that, "I heard from the elder brother that when you first came to the study, you got into fights every day, and even split his desk with a knife and used it as firewood."

Mozi of the previous generation entrusted Song Wentong to the care of Gingko Zhaizhu before his death. The Mo family has a thin blood and a strange family tradition.

"At that time I was too noisy, and my elder brother couldn't do anything about it, so I asked Chai Shuxin to give me medicine, but he didn't give me enough medicine. I found out that we had a fight. After that, my husband took away my knife and asked me to put it away. After learning the things my mother left behind, I will go to him to get them."

"As a result, when I came to the study when I was ten years old, you were already killing pigs with a knife." Mu Gesheng said with a smile: "Okay, second child, you were only twelve that year, right? You have learned something in seven years, how can you do that?" of?"

"Mr. taught well."

"Master is a fortune teller, how can he teach you things from the Mo family?"

"Sir gave me a letter and asked me to go to Penglai. There is a master swordsmith in the Penglai Jiange, and I learned it very quickly with the guidance of my seniors."

"Have you ever been to Penglai?" Muge became interested, "How about it, is it fun?"

"There are too many rules. Once I killed a white crane and roasted it to eat, and a group of boys chased me and beat it." Song Wentong remembered something, "Tomorrow there will be a visitor to the study, and it seems to be from Penglai."

"It's not unusual, Master has all kinds of guests." Mu Gesheng lay on the roof and turned over, lazily said: "Aren't you going down the mountain tomorrow? Maybe it's an old acquaintance who came, see you? "

"I'm not interested. Those monks are good at things. If we meet, I'll pay them for their cranes."

"It's just a crane, if you pay, you will pay."

"Where do you want me to pay for the 300-year-old crane? I will pay him a three-month-old goose at most."

"...Then you should go down the mountain to avoid debt."

On the second day, Mu Gesheng slept until the sun was up as usual, yawning and passing by the waterside pavilion, he was suddenly taken aback, "Master? Don't you have a visitor today?"

The Ginkgo Veterinarian was sitting by the water, sticking an umbrella, "Did Wentong tell you?"

"Yes, he was busy avoiding debts, so he hurried down the mountain in the middle of the night last night." Mu Gesheng stepped forward and greeted him, "Are you sticking an umbrella? Is it going to rain soon?"

"It's going to be the beginning of winter, and it's going to snow in the evening." Gingko Zhai said: "This umbrella does not protect from rain, but from snow."

"Avoid the snow but not the rain." Muge was delighted, "Master Fengya."

"It's just a vassal."

"I said something wrong." Mu Gesheng slapped his head, "Master is not elegant, but strong - what did the poet who came last time say? The white clothes are by the water, and the strong wind reflects the cold window."

"I know you're going to Guan Shanyue today, so you're using it as a teacher to train your mouth first?" Gingko Zhaizhu looked at him a little funny, "I still have no money again? I'm looking for your elder brother to go."

"Brother left me money early in the morning." Mu Gesheng took out a money bag, "I found the old place as soon as I looked for it."

"Zhengnan left? He left the money under the stove for you again?"

Mu Gesheng paused, "Master, how do you know?"

Li hexagram is Lin Juansheng's favorite hexagram image, Li is fire, there is fire in the flame, and there is light in the light.

"Department is fire, and the human heart is also fire; if distance is clear, the human heart is also clear." Gingko Zhaizhu said casually: "If you give me pocket money, I will never forget to teach the truth. Your senior brother is more attentive than my master."

"Where is it?" Muge's tongue was shining like a lotus flower, "It can't compare to Master's talent and learning."

"Eloquence is also a skill handed down from heaven. I never taught you, but you have acquired the essence." Ginkgo Vegetarian poured the fish food in hand into the water and handed Mu Gesheng a bowl, "Now that you have learned it, how about Carry forward."

"what?"

"This bowl is a relic from the previous generation, don't drop it." Gingko Zhaizhu said: "You take it down the mountain today, set up a fortune-telling stall, and come back when the bowl is full of money."

Mu Gesheng: "..."

"Don't panic, the previous generation used this bowl to walk around the streets and alleys, relying on their skillful tongue." The Ginkgo Veterinarian said leisurely: "If you can't figure it out, just fool around."

Guan Shanyue is the most famous music building in the city, and there is a gold-colored couplet posted in front of the door——Guan Shanyue, all of them are fellow travelers;There is a flower shop, shoe shop and cheongsam shop outside the building, supporting the entire industrial chain of the street.

The top floor is the private room, the Tianzihao room is the most expensive, and it is easy not to entertain guests, but today it is full of people, "Thirteen, I agree!" The woman with light makeup smiled and clapped her hands, "Little boy, pay!"

There was a mahjong table in the middle of the room, surrounded by Yingying and Yanyan. Anyone who looked at it would think that this was the lavishness of the rich young master. Didn't eat on time?"

"It's a lot of meals, Aunt Zhao don't worry."

"The hairpin that Xiao Tong'er gave me last time is really unique. They all looked at it with greedy eyes. I don't know where they bought it?"

"I made it myself. If my aunts like it, I'll make a few more copies."

"Has Tongtong used the new cream from Rouge Shop?"

"Use it, it's too oily, but it's suitable for winter, third sister can buy it and try it."

"Brother Tong, what do you think of my nails?"

"This color is too colorful for you to use, I will draw a new one for you later."

"And me and me..."

Song Wentong sat under the mahjong table, chatting among the flowers fluently, but his expression was not intimacy.Anping once heard from Mu Gesheng that Song Wentong was born to be a winner in life. Back then, Mozi married the oiran, and everyone in the building was very happy, always thinking about the fate of that year.Later, Mozi couldn't take care of children, and was rushed to raise by everyone. Song Wentong was raised in a pile of makeup before he was five years old. Now coming to Guan Shanyue is like visiting relatives. The room is full of his sisters, sisters, three aunts and six aunts.

Songwen Tongsheng is very beautiful, it is said that when he was a child, he was wrapped in brocade and raised as a girl, and now there is Le Ji in the room wearing a cheongsam and gesticulating on him, "Come and help my sister try it, and see how the upper body looks!"

Song Wentong is not disgusted, he has always been frank and does not shy away from his appearance.The Mohists have dabbled in folk miscellaneous studies, and they are also eloquent when talking about skin care and makeup. They are not like winners in life, but like women's friends.

But what's even more funny is the one next to him.

Surrounded by a group of people, Wu Zixu shivered and played a card, "Peace, peace..."

"Yo, Master Wu won?" Aunt Zhao clapped her hands with a smile, "It's a coincidence that Tong'er lost all here, and I just made up for it with the winnings!"

"It's all lost." Song Wentong stretched out his hand towards Wu Zixu, "Give me the money."

Wu Zixu's face turned red, and he took the opportunity of taking money to drag Song Wentong over, and tried his best to whisper: "Second brother, if you want money, you can ask me for it! Why did you bring me to your house?! "

"Correct your bad habit. When you see a woman, you will be scared to death." Song Wentong said while counting the money: "You must deal with women when you take care of the Wu family's property. Who was invited to drink flower wine last time? Did you come back crying in fright?"

Anping: "..."

He really didn't realize that Wu Zixu usually advances and retreats in a calm manner, and is the most stable one in Ginkgo's study.In terms of eloquence, Wu Zixu is on par with Mugesheng, but Mugesheng's crooked reasoning is a disaster, and when he speaks, his anger is usually half dead, and a tongue can kill, but Wu Zixu is gentle and euphemistic, persuasive and seductive, like flowing water The voice is eloquent, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.

But now the jade-faced boy has become a boiled watermelon, feeding his usual gentleness to the dog, he doesn't know whether he is angry or anxious, "I can't stay any longer! You, you, you... let's go!"

"What are you going to do? You haven't lost all your money yet." Song Wentong snapped his fingers and took a cigarette, "By the way, have you learned how to smoke?"

Wu Zixu looked like he was going crazy: "Please forgive me!"

Song Wentong ignored him, and went to play cards with a cigarette in his mouth, "Take care of our third child, don't let him play cards."

Wu Zixu's place is miserable, but Mugesheng's is like a fish in water.

The master of Gingkozhai ordered him to tell a fortune teller, but this man didn't take chances, he really set up a street stall seriously, to attract people while basking in the sun.

He chose this place very well, right in front of Yuelao Temple, next to the booth was a small shop selling incense and candle offerings, and the door was covered with red marriage lines.He was handsome and witty, and after a while, many people gathered in front of the stall, "Mr. Xiao, this is the lottery I just asked for from the temple. Can you see if you can solve it?"

"Congratulations sister, the marriage is made by nature, next time the matchmaker will come again, you might as well let go and have a look."

"Mr. Xiao, can you help me make peace? My fiancé is going on a long trip recently..."

"There is a safety talisman in the temple. It is very effective. My sister can ask for one. Remember to carry it close to you. It will ensure a smooth journey."

"Little Mister, help me take a look..."

After a while, the business is booming, and most of the visitors are women, which can be considered a peach blossom marriage.A girl asked with a blushing face what her wishful husband would look like. Mu Gesheng saw something, patted the table with a smile, and pointed in front of him, "Sister, look, your future husband-in-law is just as handsome as him!"

The crowd turned their heads away, only to see a young man standing in the middle of the road, carrying a medicine box, his expression was as snowy, and his eyebrows and eyes could almost be painted—it was Chai Shuxin.

Hearing the noise here, he turned slightly to look sideways, and the fortune-telling girl blushed immediately.

Mu Gesheng propped his chin, and said with a loud smile: "What a handsome young master, do you want to come and count the marriage?"

Chai Shuxin glanced at him, turned around and entered the opposite courtyard without saying a word.

"It's a pity, it's an unreasonable temper." Mu Gesheng was not angry, and looked at the person in front of him with a smile, "Sister, don't worry, your future husband-in-law is much more affectionate than him."

Mugesheng kept his stall open until dusk, when the crowd gradually dispersed, he was not in a hurry to close the stall, and just sat and tossed coins leisurely.

As the sun set in the distance, the gate of the house across the street creaked open.

Seeing him, Chai Shuxin paused, "You haven't left yet?"

"Isn't this just waiting for the last business deal?" Mu Gesheng pushed aside the money, "Three or nine days, count?"

Chai Shuxin frowned slightly, "What did you call me?"

"Hey, anyway, you don't pay attention to what I tell you, so don't care about it. Hey, don't go!" Mu Gesheng grabbed the other party's sleeve, "Forget it, I've been here for nothing all afternoon. I earn dinner money."

"Let go."

"I won't." Mu Gesheng had a look of disdain for me, and if you dared to leave, I would just slap on the spot.

The two stalemate for a while, and Chai Shuxin said, "Why don't you charge money?"

"I'm too lazy to calculate. Look at the face and it's probably a good omen. It's almost inseparable, but it's not accurate." Mu Gesheng said: "There are rules in Tiansuan's sect. If you don't make a divination, you can't get paid - but no one follows it. , There are not many people in our lineage."

Chai Shuxin looked at the mountain ghost spending money on the table, was silent for a moment, and said, "What is it?"

"It's strange, what do you ask a fortune teller for a divination?" Mu Gesheng laughed when he heard it.

As he said that, he tossed backhand, his movements were casual, but it was like throwing a lot of money.The money was scattered on the table and formed into a hexagram. Mu Gesheng picked up one and said with a smile:

"I have to meet Shuren, the haze can go away, good luck."

Chai Shuxin's expression remained unchanged, he took out his money bag and put it in the bowl, "I don't know what to say."

"I've made it clear enough, it's an auspicious hexagram." Mu Gesheng looked very satisfied, "I'm lucky today, I have two hexagrams, and they are both very auspicious."

"What's the other hexagram?"

"It's almost the same as yours." Mu Gesheng opened the purse, "I have to meet a beautiful woman, and the will will be bright, and the flowers will be bright."

With a clatter and a shake, the copper plates fell into the bowl, no more, no less, and the whole bowl was just flattened.

"Today is a fine day." Mu Gesheng said with a smile, "It's an auspicious day for traveling."
