Asura Fields Everywhere in Soochow

Due to the extravagance at the beginning, Sun Wu and Lu Ji gradually became struggling.A few years later, the two had to immerse themselves in civilian life.

Lu Ji was weak and could not lift his hands or resist, so he could only copy, write and paint.No one in the mountains was willing to spend money on such impractical things, so Sun Wu entrusted people to send them to the county every time, and occasionally wealthy people were willing to bid.

In the evening of that day, Lu Ji was counting the belongings of the two of them in the house, when Sun Wu came back from the outside.

She ran up to the second floor, threw a string of coins in front of Lu Ji, swallowed the half-drinked tea on the table in one gulp, and said angrily, "My trust is in vain... I thought that Li was a good person before, so I handed over your words to him..."

Lu Ji weighed the coins and was very happy, "Isn't this rich? There are so many, there should be twenty coins, right?"

Calligraphy and painting are not serious commodities, let alone authentic works by famous artists. Lizheng is willing to take them with him when he goes to the county. Regardless of whether they can be sold or not, Lu Ji is already very grateful.

"Of course I'm happy if someone is willing to buy it." Sun Wu lay down and rested his head on his lap.

Adjusting a comfortable posture, she said again: "But this time he didn't go by himself. He asked his youngest son Zhang Tuhu to go. I went to Zhang Tuhu to ask for money. Guess what Zhang Tuhu said? He said he met Linpu When the county magistrate took out the word you, the county magistrate didn't like it, but the county magistrate's guest did. This guest is a big man..."

"What big shot?" Lu Ji stopped counting money.

"What kind of big shot can there be here? The county magistrate is already considered a big shot. I used to say 'big shots from Jiaozhou' in the past. I thought it was Shi Xie who came, but it turned out that he was not one of his errands? This place is too big. It’s way off, no real big shot wants to come.”

As Sun Wu said, he realized that he was digressing, and brought the topic back, "It's not about the big man. He bought your calligraphy for [-] yuan, so he has a vision. It's just that he gave Zhang Tuhu a colored glaze cup, but Tuhu Zhang showed it off to me for an hour after he came back."

"..." Lu Ji: "Are you angry because of this? You really want that glass cup?"

"It's not that I haven't used good things before, why do I want that thing?" Sun Wu said disdainfully, "It's just that I really can't see their face, they obviously took advantage of us, and they still want to show off in front of me, What's the matter?"

In her arms was a somewhat cute mountain woman. Lu Ji held back a smile and stroked her hair and said, "That's okay, who made his father an official?"

"What kind of official is that..." Sun Wu said, thinking of something, "Speaking of which, I planned to invite him to kill pigs tomorrow. Now that I think about it, it's better for him to earn the money than for me. I will kill myself tomorrow." never mind."

Lu Ji disagreed, "Why is that necessary? It made my whole body fishy."

"You don't know." Sun Wu sat up, "If you invite him to kill a pig, you have to give him all the twenty dollars today, and you have to bring a few catties of pigs into the water. We are so poor now, this is not cutting us off." Meat?"

Lu Ji felt a little bit ashamed in his heart.

Sun Wu lay back and sighed: "I didn't know before that being a commoner is as tiring as being an emperor."

During his days in Yulin, Sun Wu was very busy hunting and raising animals and serving crops every day.Looking at her, Lu Ji felt that it was rare for her to be so lively, and he had never seen her look sad again, thinking that she was enjoying such a life.

Hearing what she said now, he couldn't help worrying: "Ah Wu..."

"Don't call me Ah Wu." Sun Wu interrupted him, "You read and write very elegantly all day long, and it's really unfair that I'm running around for my livelihood every day. Don't call me Ah Wu, call me Your Majesty."

Lu Ji couldn't help laughing, "Your Majesty."

Sun Wu also laughed, reaching out to pinch his face, "Still laughing, without your majesty me, do you think you can eat meat and read books?"

Lu Ji suppressed his smile, "So, Your Majesty, are you really going to kill a pig yourself tomorrow?"

"That's natural. Not only do I want to kill pigs myself, but I also want to do it well. Then in the future, other people will not come to him to kill pigs, but will come to me and cut off their money." Sun Wu said solemnly.

The minister under the skirt, Lu Ji, immediately flattered him, "Your Majesty is a good planner."

……

Outside the house quietly enveloped the night.Through the window of the bamboo building, you can see a big and round moon, bright and beautiful, it seems that you can pick it off when you reach out.

Sun Wu had thought too much before, and Sun Wu had never lived such a serious and simple life.

She looked at the moon and couldn't help sighing: "Actually, being a commoner is much happier than being an emperor."

"Yes."

No longer far away and out of reach, her eyes, nose, skin, and hair can be truly touched. Lu Ji has never been so happy.

He moved his eyes away from the moon, leaned close to Sun Wu's ear, and teased her softly: "...Your Majesty, stop eating meat, eat me."

The next day, after breakfast, Sun Wu felt refreshed and started to kill pigs.

A two-hundred-jin pig is still killed with a single knife. After killing, the pig can be hung up and bled by the principle of leverage, which can be done by one person.

Immediately afterwards, Paoding was like an ox, two pork ribs, four pork legs, a pig head, tenderloin, pig tail, offal, etc. were divided one by one and placed neatly under the bamboo building.

She was able to do things with ease, and the neighbors came to watch after finishing the farm work. They all praised her for her skills and promised that they would come to her to butcher pigs in the future, and would never go to Zhang Butcher again.

The great revenge was avenged, and there was another means of making a living. Sun Wu thanked the neighbors and sent them some leftovers, and happily cleaned up the mess.

At this moment, Butcher Zhang came. He was full of flesh and walked with the wind. He killed her in two or three steps.

When Sun Wu saw him, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows, "Why, you also come to see me butcher? It's a pity that you came late."

"Look at what you are doing to butcher a pig." Butcher Zhang looked at the stains all over her body with disdain, and said, "Ah Wu, I didn't come to look for you today—is Ah Ji here?"

"My husband was tired last night, you..." Just as he was about to answer, Sun Wu's eyes suddenly fell behind him, and he couldn't help being startled.

——Lu Xun stood there far away, his white robe not stained with dust.

……

At the 100th meeting for the first time, Lu Xun finally understood the vicissitudes of life.Unable to speak a thousand words, he stared at Sun Wu closely, his eyes trembling like broken moonlight on the water.

The scene suddenly became dead silent. At a loss, Zhang Tuhu went to Sun Wu's side and said, "Why are you standing there? This is a big man who has taken a fancy to A Ji's calligraphy and painting. He is from Jiangdong. I can't afford to offend you, so hurry up and call him out to meet him!"

It's not that I'm in a daze.Sun Wu thought to himself.

She looked at Lu Xun again, it seemed difficult for him to speak, so she had no choice but to wipe off the oil from her hands and lead him to the second floor.

"It's a coincidence for you to come up. I will kill a pig today, and I will add another bowl for you."
