Chapter 91: Listening to the Sea of ??Bitterness under the Moon

"The night is deep. If you don't go upstairs to rest, why do you come downstairs and wander around?"

Mr. Xun happened to get the chess score. Before he could find the brightest part of the moonlight, he heard the woman behind him ask coldly. For some reason, this young woman always couldn't get along with him. In his words, he seemed to treat the young master of the Xun family as such a despicable playboy.

No wonder the woman thought too much. She not only did not sleep upstairs in the middle of the night, but instead tiptoed downstairs. It happened that there was only one weak woman and two girls at the inn. It was not a dignified behavior for anyone to see.

Helplessly, Xun Yuantuo had to sue him: "Miss, don't blame me. My body is weak, and I have been living a comfortable life for a long time, so it will be difficult to resist the coldness of the bamboo mat. If you sleep like this for a night, you may find it difficult to get up tomorrow. I thought, it would be better to read the chess score. It will not be too late to wait until tomorrow is warm."

This woman has a good appearance, and her body is well-proportioned. If she is a disciple or a rich playboy, she would probably want to look at her more while talking. Although there are many beautiful flowers in her home, the flowers in her home are always not as attractive as the wild flowers outside. Even if she doesn't have the action of Yuechi, it's always okay to fill her eyes.

However, Mr. Xun always looked at him with a stern look and had no intention of looking around the woman. His eyes were open and clear.

"Forget it, that young master will do it." After saying that, the woman walked to the wall of the station. Without much effort, she jumped over and climbed up to the wall, picked up the old shirt in her hand, and sewed the clothes with the bright moonlight.

Poor families always can't bear to pay for money on lamps, so the rich moonlight has become a unique product that replaces oil lamps. Women often sew clothes under the moonlight, or children study their homework while the moonlight, which is almost a sight that can be seen everywhere among the people of the nine countries. However, literati are different. No matter how their family is, they always try to read books under the moonlight several times. One is for elegance, and the other is for finding the taste of studying hard when they were young. The two are different, but they are different.

Xun Yuantuo was no exception. When he went on a long trip, he was naturally quite happy, but some young people were still mature and unwilling to reveal anything. Watching the chess record under the moon, how could he not try such new things in person?

However, it was moonlight after all, and there were many shadows in the courtyard, and the remaining few corners of the ground were unclear. It was still acceptable to barely see clearly under your feet. It was indeed very difficult to use it to read books and read the scores.

"If it's really hard to see clearly, just come on the wall by yourself." The woman sitting on the top of the wall looked at Mr. Xun walking around the yard like a headless fly, and somehow the grudge in her heart faded away, and she couldn't help but feel a little funny.

The latter's eyes lit up after hearing this. After thanking him, he hurriedly walked under the corner of the other side. He spent a lot of effort to climb to the top of the wall and sit down, ready to look at the chess recipe carefully.

Xun Yuantuo has been learning chess with his husband for several months, and his chess power has gone one step further. Even Zhou Kefa is not stingy to praise him, saying that his chess power can be compared with ordinary chess masters, and his winning or losing is still five or five. But what makes this young master extremely puzzled is that no matter how much his chess power increases, his master's chess path always steadily suppresses him. When he goes one foot, Mr. Zhou goes one foot; when he goes one inch, his chess power will go one inch and two. The chess power is like a vast sea, mountains and cliffs, and he goes one day and can't be crossed.

I'm afraid only a smart person like Xun Yuantuo, who is infatuated with chess, can continue to move forward under such heavy pressure. If someone else had probably thrown away the chess record for a long time and never touched it for the rest of his life. After all, the person sitting opposite him was turning the painting while moving his calligraphy while still trying to do something. Not most people can ignore this feeling of frustration.

Before Xun Yuantuo read the chess record, he must first read the recent chess game in his mind, find out the defeat that he feels inappropriate, and then read it, striving to find out the shortcomings of this move. Not to mention, just relying on this ability to remember everything, it is enough to be called a stunning talent. What's more, Xun Yuantuo does not only remember the situation of the game, but to remember each step of both sides, and is engraved in the heart. Compared to the past, he is very much better than to remember everything.

The name of a demon has never been just a false reputation.

When Mr. Xun was memorizing chess, he was most afraid of others disturbing him. Unexpectedly, as soon as he started to review the game in his heart, the woman spoke softly, disrupting the chess game in her mind.

"I said, "Young Master, where are you going for this trip?"

Xun Yuantuo opened his eyes and looked at the woman two feet away in confusion. The woman was extremely skillful in her technique. She had sewed her clothes for a while, put them on her knees and hugged them, staring at the young master with interest.

"I have no choice but to go where I go." Xun Yuantuo, who was interrupted from deducing his ideas, pointed his finger at the second floor. Since he could not continue, it would be better to chat with this woman. He did not forget what Master told me today, and he scolded the two girls in the evening, and felt a little guilty.

"I really didn't think of you as a rich man, and when you were studying abroad. But when you think about it carefully, your master is more like a scholar." The woman said in a narrow voice, "I don't know how a poor scholar who is a poor scholar who is obviously powerless and wealthy at first glance can recognize you as an apprentice."

"Yes, I wondered why I was so aristocratic family in the market. Logically speaking, how could a poor teacher want to accept aristocratic family as his disciple? I thought that the master was not different from those false scholars who were sensational and wanted to use this to climb. But after getting along for a long time, his teacher's knowledge and character was indeed more than one head higher than the people I saw."

Xun Yuantuo closed the chess record and looked at the second floor and was stunned.

"I dare to ask why there are only three of you, mother and daughter, who are so tight at this inn?"

The woman's eyes drooped and she answered slowly after a while.

"Sanpian has never been without a man. My husband is the official appointed postman. A few years ago, a family of four had always been here. Although his husband's salary was meager, it was not a problem to deal with the firewood, rice, oil and salt."

"But the second year after I gave birth to two daughters, he was summoned by the government to Na'an, and he never returned." The woman took a deep breath and vomited gently.

"If I encounter an unexpected accident on the road, I will admit it, and spend all my family's wealth and reclaim his bones and bury them. But even if I live, I will not see anyone but die. All the way on the road is a post road. Regardless of the size of the official position, I was finally appointed by the court. How could there be no thieves robbing the small postman who had no money or power? Shangqi is considered peaceful. There has been many years of news about no bandits, so how could there be no news for no reason."

"I always felt that he was not dead, so I volunteered to tell the government that I would be the postman here. Although I was not good at riding, I could also serve the meals of the postman from the postman."

"Why is the salary and the decorations in the house..." Xun Yuantuo frowned for the moment, and he stopped halfway through his words.

"You should know that there is no woman who is a postman. Since I stayed here and didn't leave, of course it was a violation of the rules. At first, it was a good idea, but I just gave my salary without giving it. Later, a scoundrel came to the door to disturb the public and disturb the trouble, and even robbed my husband's own property to be used as money, but no one paid attention to the report. How could I not know who was behind it?"

"After all, I broke the rules first. If someone above investigated it, it would definitely make things difficult for the masters in the government. So looking at my mother and daughter, it would probably be like a thorn in your eyes."

The woman's voice trembled slightly, almost burst into tears.

"It's not necessary to wait here, but where do you get the remaining money to buy a house?"

"After all, I was just lucky, thinking that one day I could wait until he came back."
