sheepskin for melon

The daughter of the Zhao family, named Zhao Pinghui, is now twenty-one, and her close friends have already been married one after another, and she is the only one who is still waiting to be married, so I can't help but worry.

Now that the clouds have finally opened to see the moon, and the big wedding is approaching, I can't help but feel joyful and apprehensive.

I am happy that my husband is in high school and has a promising future. I am about to become the real wife of the official family. I am worried because I have only met my future husband a few times.

At the time when I had mixed feelings, when I first saw the poem "Mang" that described the "marriage grave" in detail, I was shocked.

Seeing her depressed expression, Liu Xu gently comforted her: "Don't be sad, everyone in this world has their own destiny, not everyone is as unfortunate as the woman in the poem."

Hearing this, Zhao Pinghui finally felt better, and put her arms around Liu Xu's waist: "Sister Liu, is it true? But I'm really scared, you said Qiao Silang would like me, will you be good to me?"

Liu Xu was silent, and slowly wiped the pipa.

In her life, she has seen all kinds of men, and one thing she understands the most is that men are rarely reliable.

What is engraved in their bones is a dense desire to plunder, and they can be shameless when plundering resources.

They are always so strong because they can always put themselves first, and everyone around them can be the objects they plunder to strengthen themselves.

Women always want to exchange for it, as if they can get back a heart in exchange for a heart. However, if they understand the predatory thinking engraved in men's bones, they will know that they, as plundered resources, will lose their value once they lose their value. Trampled at will.

Qiao Silang is now an official, and it is not what it used to be. In the future, there will be countless merchants like the Zhao family to curry favor with him.

The help that the Zhao family gave him at the beginning has been eaten up by him and has become his own capital. It is still unknown whether he will care about his "old favor" at this moment.

So the current Qiao Silang's attitude towards Miss Zhao depends entirely on Qiao Silang's own conscience, whether he is willing to take this valueless resource to heart, but in this world, conscience is the least important thing for a man.

Liu Xu looked at the innocent Zhao Pinghui and sighed.

It is really sad and deplorable that a woman like Miss Zhao, who was born in a wealthy family and was extremely lucky, still cannot escape the fate of living by a man's conscience.

She couldn't really comfort her, but she didn't want to make her too sad, maybe she could only teach her some secrets of eternal happiness.

Slowly adjusting the strings, Liu Xu lowered her eyes: "Hui'er, do you know the mother of General Tianwei?"

Zhao Pinghui's eyes lit up, since that day when she saw "Tianwei General" with her own eyes, when she thought of this person, Zhao Pinghui started to blush and blush.

Hearing Miss Liu's words, she stared at her big eyes for knowledge and listened carefully.

Liu Xu smiled, and told her many interesting stories about her mother that General Tan once told her, and finally smiled: "Thinking about Mrs. Tan, I am really enviable. In this life, no matter whether it is a husband or a son, everyone is right. She is obedient, respectful and loving."

Zhao Pinghui immediately nodded with bright eyes. If she and Qiao Lang can be as loving as General Tan's father and mother after marriage, and have another child like General Tan in the future, how wonderful it would be!

Liu Xu looked at her looking forward to it, and said with a smile, "So if you want to live a happy life after marriage, you should learn from Mrs. Tan."

Zhao Pinghui nodded first, then hesitated: "But Sister Liu, if she treats her husband so hard like Mrs. Hu, will people say that she is not virtuous and obedient..."

Liu Xu chuckled and scratched the tip of her nose: "Silly girl, life is for yourself, not for others to see. The most important thing is to make yourself comfortable. Do you still remember the story in the first issue of the newspaper? What do you think of the story? Will that woman be happy after marriage?"

The reason why Zhao Pinghui likes the Efa Temple Weekly so much is because she likes the first story, she immediately nodded excitedly: "It will definitely!"

"But there isn't even a wishful man in the story, why do you think so?"

"Hey?"

Zhao Pinghui was stunned, yes, why?

Liu Xu said with a smile: "Because she can fight for her own happiness and doesn't need to be attached to anyone. It can be seen that if you want to have a good life at any time, it depends not on who you marry, but on who you are."

"So Hui'er, whether you're married or not, you have to keep yourself in a state where you can live happily on your own. The most important person in this world is yourself, understand?"

These words illuminated her mind like thunder and lightning, Zhao Pinghui was dizzy, she seemed to understand something, but she was still a little frustrated and said: "But I am different from the powerful woman in the story, I can't do anything ..."

Liu Xu smiled and took her hand: "I won't learn the pipa today, let's go to the Efa Temple to burn incense."

Then he seemed to remember something: "By the way, bring that thing of yours."

Zhao Pinghui was ashamed when she heard that she was no longer practicing pipa. She had studied with Liu Niangzi, a national master, for so long, but she didn't say she had learned anything.

However, when Mrs. Liu asked her to take "that thing" to the Efa Temple, her face suddenly turned red, this is not good!

Liu Xu gave Ting Lan a wink, and the two of them pulled her together, Zhao Pinghui was finally pulled halfway.

After talking to his parents, he went to the Efa Temple in light clothes. After burning the incense and worshiping the Buddha, Liu Xu signaled the servant to wait outside first, and took Zhao Pinghui to the apse.

The adopted children in the temple were playing in the yard. Hui Xiao looked at Li Ying who was squatting under the eaves in a daze, and ran over suddenly: "What are you doing here, come and play together, the eagle catches the chicken, here you go!" Be an eagle."

Li Ying's chin rested on the little old man's fluffy head, and he shook his head vigorously.

Hui Xiao tugged at him hard, accidentally dropped his ass, was stunned for a while, and suddenly burst into tears with his mouth open.

Li Ying, one person and one cat looked at him together, motionless.

Seeing that Li Ying ignored him, Hui Xiao got tired of crying and snorted, not playing with Li Ying anymore!Angrily ran back to play with others.

On the side, Chi Li also looked angrily: "Why did your nephew rob my cat!"

Tan Yushu: ...

Couldn't it be that after the little old man became useless, you didn't even bother to take care of him, Brother Chi, that's why he was picked up by Li Ying in despair?

But reasoning with Brother Chi is itself impossible, so Tan Yushu made a decisive decision: "I'm sorry Brother Chi, Li Ying is not sensible, I'll pay you."

Hearing what he said, Chi Li was satisfied, raised his chin and asked, "Then how will you compensate me?"

Tan Yushu blinked: "I already said it, I will pay Brother Chi."

Chi Li was stunned for a while before realizing that what Tan Yushu said was to compensate you for "I".

He squeezed his face viciously: "Then I am at a loss! You are worthless!"

"Ah? Is that so..."

Tan Yushu stood up: "Forget it, Brother Chi doesn't want it anyway, I'm leaving..."

"Come here for me!"

Chi Li pulled Tan Yushu back and snorted coldly: "Although it's really not worth much, it's better to have something than nothing. I agree, and you belong to me now."

Tan Yushu was dragged back obediently, and chuckled, brother Chi is so strange, he would hold on to worthless things~

While the two were making small movements, a familiar voice suddenly came: "General Tan, Master Miaofa."

The two turned their heads in unison, and saw Lady Liu and another woman standing in the corridor.

Seeing this person, Tan Yushu suddenly felt that Chi Li was pinching his hand harder and harder...

Standing up quickly, she smiled solemnly and said, "It's Mrs. Liu, what can you do?"

Liu Niangzi's eyes fell on the movements of the two of them without any trace, and said with a light smile: "This time I am not here for General Tan, but for Master Miaofa."

Tan Yushu: ...

I heard Brother Wuchi, he wasn't looking for me, so stop pinching it!

Just pinch!Just pinch!Just pinch!Damn Tan Yushu!

Tan Yushu was silent, he felt so wronged.

……

Miss Liu came here this time, really not looking for Tan Yushu, but looking for Chi Li to open the back door.

In the "editorial department" of Erfa Temple, Xu Minxue was busy and dizzy. Since the weekly newspaper of Erfa Temple was published, he has been reading the manuscript for a long time every day.

But because "newspaper style" has just become popular recently, the manuscripts submitted by many people are not very good.

While I was busy, someone knocked on the door suddenly, and when I opened it, it turned out to be two girls wearing veiled hats, one of them was slightly blessed: "Editor Xu, my servant Liu Xu, was introduced by Master Miaofa, and I am here to bother you."

Xu Minxue quickly stood up to return the salute, but the name "Liu Xu" sounds familiar, wait, is it the famous Lady Liu?

Liu Xu accepted his question with a smile, Xu Minxue was very excited when he saw Mrs. Liu herself, stood up and bowed again.

Liu Xu smiled happily: "This time I came to find Editor-in-Chief Xu in order to go through the back door. I have a female student who wrote a manuscript. I don't know if Editor-in-Chief Xu will accept it?"

Xu Minxue was a little surprised. Ever since the newspaper published the news that anyone is welcome to contribute, there has been an endless stream of contributors, but most of them are poor scholars like him. I didn't expect a girl to come this time.

Originally, there was no rule that women were not allowed to submit manuscripts, so Xu Minxue said, "I also ask Mrs. Liu to show me the manuscript."

Zhao Pinghui was a little shy, and kept hiding behind Liu Xu without saying a word. When she heard this, she handed a stack of papers to Liu Xu and asked her to convey it on her behalf.

After taking the manuscript, Xu Minxue made a complaint, sat down to read it carefully, and got out of hand after watching it. This manuscript was actually very interesting!

The content of the story is a rich businessman who has only one daughter, and his family wealth is stared at by his uncles. In order to prevent his wife and daughter from being bullied a hundred years later, the rich businessman came up with an idea to dress his daughter up as a man and teach her to do business. .

In order to seize the family property, the uncles always thwarted the "young master", but the "young master" was stronger than the man since he was a child, and all the plots were easily resolved by "he".

In the process of taking care of the family business, the "female young master" and another heroic, upright and open-minded rich young master did not know each other, and finally became confidantes and became brothers of different surnames.

The rich young master accidentally found the "young master"'s daughter behind him, and was immediately infatuated. Facing his "righteous brother", he could no longer maintain a normal heart.

After the two shared hardships many times, they gradually fell in love with each other. When the uncles discovered the identity of the "young master" and made it public to force and humiliate her, the rich young master stepped forward and married the "young master".

After marriage, the two played harmoniously, filial piety to both parents, and had two sons and a daughter.

One of the two boys took the husband's family name and the other took the mother's family name. In this way, both families have successors.

The sinister uncle and cousins ​​no longer have anything to rely on and are impoverished, but the family of the "young master" and her husband are united and more prosperous.

After Xu Minxue finished reading, he was amazed again and again!

If the Efa Temple Weekly wants to say whose articles are the most popular, it must be "Dongchuangke". His style of writing scripts is completely different from other scripts on the market. As soon as he heard of his articles, the newspapers would be sold out in an instant.

As a result, many people imitated his style of writing for the sake of drafting, but none of them could imitate so much!

It’s the kind of feeling that first puts a paw on your heart, scratching a heart until it is unbearable, and finally scratches it thoroughly for you. Although it does not have a shape, it has a spirit!

Not only that, but some of the tricks in the story are subtle, sophisticated and amazing, as if they were on the scene, which shows the author's wisdom.

Xu Minxue even had a guess, got up and gave a big gift: "Could it be that the girl is Dong Chuang Ke?"

Zhao Pinghui was taken aback, and suddenly she couldn't care less about being shy, and stammered: "No... no, I just like Dongchuangke's article, so I imitated it, editor-in-chief Xu, what do you think?"

Not really!Dongchuangke has a successor!

Xu Minxue was worried about the article to be published in the next issue. After getting this manuscript, it was raining like rain, and he said excitedly: "Girl, this article is wonderful! We accepted it, and it will be published in the next issue! I will find the number of people, Pay the girl."

Zhao Pinghui's eyes widened, a little unbelievable, has it passed!

After Xu Minxue left, he no longer cared about the image of a lady, and put his arms around Lady Liu's neck: "Ahh! Sister Liu, I'm over!"

Liu Xu smiled and said, "Look, who said you can't do anything?"

Zhao Pinghui was so excited that her whole body was bubbling, and slowly, feeling a little lost, she said in a sullen voice: "Sister Liu, in fact, many of this article was not thought up by me, but what I saw..."

The situation of their family is similar to that of the "young master" in the story, but she is not as powerful as the "young master", so I can only imagine such a powerful person in the story...

Liu Xu pinched her nose: "Everyone can see these things, but only you and Dongchuangke can write about them."

Zhao Pinghui was stunned. In Sister Liu's eyes, is she really so powerful?Can it be compared with Dongchuangke?

Liu Xu gave her a positive look without hesitation, and Zhao Pinghui couldn't help feeling dizzy.

After a while, Xu Minxue came back with the reward: "Four taels and a half silver, you weigh it."

"No more weighing!"

Zhao Pinghui's eyes under the veiled hat are shining, this is her first time making money!Immediately said happily: "Sister Liu, I will invite you to Taohua Pavilion to get your nails done later!"

Liu Xu laughed: "Go to the Peach Blossom Pavilion, the money won't be able to keep."

It's the first time I earn money, I really don't want to spend it...

Soon Zhao Pinghui's eyes lit up again: "It's okay, Sister Liu, I don't spend this money, I spend the money my father and mother gave me!"

Liu Xu and Xu Minxue were taken aback for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing together: It sounds like there is nothing wrong!

After the matter was over, Liu Xu and Zhao Pinghui bid farewell to Xu Minxue, and Xu Minxue immediately bowed to see him off.

Suddenly, something came to mind: "This girl, I don't know what your nickname is? How do we write it when we publish it?"

Yes, you need a name for the newspaper.

Zhao Pinghui didn't expect this when she came here, so she was stopped by the question. After thinking for a long time, she couldn't think of a suitable one, and finally gritted her teeth: "Let's call it 'Pinggu'!"

"Aunt Ping?"

Xu Minxue smiled and saluted: "I wrote it down."

The two girls went to Peach Blossom Pavilion hand in hand, and Xu Minxue had to go back to reread the manuscript and typesetting.

However, after queuing up, I found a problem, that is, this manuscript is too long, and it seems that a newspaper cannot fit it.

After re-reading the whole article, I feel that the story has ups and downs, and it is a pity to delete any section. What should I do?

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind: Who said a story must be published in one issue?

Thinking of this, Xu Minxue suddenly had an idea, he wanted to break up the story and publish it in two installments!

Where to disassemble it?By the way, when the rich young master found out the real body of the "female young master", he took it apart!

The two were entangled in every possible way, and people with discerning eyes already knew that something was wrong. They were hoping that the rich young master would quickly find out about the young young master's daughter, but the article was suddenly cut off here. Phase one?ha.

Immediately doing what he said, Xu Minxue immediately started his installment business.

As soon as Yu Wenlu returned to Kyoto, he liked to run to the editorial department. As soon as he entered the door, he taught Xu Min: "Is there any interesting new story, please show me first!"

"Do you understand?"

"You underestimate people, don't you!"

"Ha, the latest issue, take it for yourself, after reading it, no rumors are allowed."

"Got it, got it, long-winded."

Yu Wenlu excitedly picked up a newly printed newspaper and skipped the poetry part to read the story.

After seeing this "The Young Master", I was immediately fascinated.

He has not learned many characters recently, but there are no uncommon characters in this article, so even a semi-literate man can read it smoothly.

Yu Wenlu was fascinated by the reading, gnashing his teeth at the disgusting uncles and cousins ​​of the "young girl" for a while, and admiring the intelligence of the "young girl" for a while. The entanglement made him "ooh" out loud.

Seeing that the young master of the rich family was about to discover the truth behind the young master girl, he stood up excitedly, and when he couldn't wait to look down, it was gone!

Yu Wenlu:?

Flipping over the front and back, he asked with a confused face, "What about the one behind?"

Xu Minxue chuckled lightly: "If you want to know what will happen next, let's listen to the next chapter to break it down."

Yu Wenlu: ...

Listen, is this a human language?

It took a long time to extract a confession by torture, but Xu Minxue would rather die than surrender, and he couldn't pry anything out of his mouth at all, so Yu Wenlu could only sit down resentfully.

Take a deep breath and calm down: "This article is written by Dongchuangke again. It is different from others at first glance."

Hearing what he said, Xu Minxue suddenly smiled mysteriously: "Then you guessed wrong, the person who wrote this article is a person named 'Ping Gu'."

"What Pinggu? You're not kidding me again, are you?"

"Oh, am I in a hurry? If you have nothing to do, get out of here. I'm busy now, so I don't have time to talk to you."

"Humph!"

Yu Wenlu sat back and slowly said the name Pinggu: "Pinggu, Pleurotus... Pleurotus?"

Yu Wenlu: ...

"Hahaha! Why would someone call it Oyster Mushroom! Hahaha!"

Xu Minxue: ...

"Don't laugh, she's a girl! She's called Ping Gu!"

"Oh." Yu Wenlu restrained his smile.

However, after a while, a burst of more violent laughter suddenly broke out: "Hahaha! A girl... called Pleurotus ostreatus...hahahahahaha!"

At this moment, Yu Wenlu's mind is full of "oyster mushrooms", he laughed to death!Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Xu Minxue: ...

Brother Yuwen, can you still do it!

Always so out of tune, do you still want to marry a wife in the future!
