Chapter 72: Beautiful hair exchanges wine for love (please recommend votes and rewards)
Half an hour later, Liu Mu's home in Suanshan Township.
In the dim room, the light was beating slightly. There was less than half of the lamp oil left in an old candlestick, supporting the burning of the flame, which cast the long shadows of the three people on the wall.
.
Liu Muzhi and Liu Yu sat opposite each other, each kneeling on a broken straw mat. There was a small table in front of them, which was empty, and a young woman of seventeen or eighteen years old sat on Liu Muzhi's bed.
around.
She wears a jade hairpin sarong, has jet-black hair, has slender eyebrows, and has a dignified appearance. Although she is dressed like a commoner, she still cannot hide her elegance. Isn't she Liu Muzhi's wife Jiang Qianwen?
Liu Muzhi coughed dryly and said to Jiang Qianwen: "Madam, have you heard about what happened today?"
Jiang Qianwen sighed quietly: "I have long advised my husband not to go to the banquet, just because I am afraid that something like this will happen. My two brothers are both bitter and mean people, and even my father can't control them. Today, my husband is subject to
I am willing to shoulder your grievances, and I can do anything as long as it can make you feel better."
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly and shook his head: "It is said that poor and humble couples are miserable, but I have no regrets when I am with my wife. Your brother's matter has nothing to do with you and your father-in-law. Besides, it is also because of me.
You have accomplished nothing so far, so you are looked down upon by your brothers, and it is not entirely their fault."
The water in Jiang Qianwenfeng's eyes was flowing, and she looked at Liu Yu who was silent: "Thank you, Master Liu, for your help. Thanks to your presence today, otherwise, I wouldn't know how this matter would end?"
Liu Yu smiled calmly: "This is what I should do. Mu Zhi and I are on good terms. If I don't help him stand out today, who will?"
Liu Muzhi curled up his lips: "Okay, madam, today I just want to treat the slave to a nice drink. Firstly, it's to thank you, and secondly, it's also for farewell."
A trace of doubt flashed in Jiang Qianwen's eyes: "Farewell? What do you mean? Liu Daxia is going on a hike?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "No, I am going to join the army to serve the country and make contributions."
Jiang Qianwen softly said "Oh": "Does Liu Daxia not care about his mother and young brother at home?"
Liu Yu said with a smile: "The Hulu are about to go south, and the war is about to break out. This is a good opportunity for men to make contributions on the battlefield and win fame. I have won a lot of money in the casino these days, which is enough for my family for a while. When the war is over,
I'll just come back for the battle. Besides, if you enlist in the army, you will get military pay."
Jiang Qianwen nodded and looked at Liu Muzhi: "What Liu Daxia said is very good. Husband, you are full of talents, and you should not lag behind others in making achievements. I think it is best for you to join the army with Liu Daxia!
"
Liu Yu's heart moved. He didn't expect that Jiang Qianwen would take the initiative to ask Liu Muzhi to join the army. Along the way, the two of them also discussed a lot of countermeasures if Jiang Qianwen didn't want Liu Muzhi to come out. He didn't expect that he wouldn't just use it.
.
Liu Muzhi was also a little surprised and asked curiously: "Madam, what happened today? In the past, even if I went to Jiankang and Guangling City, you were always reluctant. Why do you want me to join the army now?"
Jiang Qianwen sighed quietly: "How could I not know about my husband's desire to build a career and gain fame? It's just that I have always thought that there are three types of unfilial piety, and the worst is not having children. I have not yet conceived a boy and a girl for my husband.
, unwilling to let my husband travel far away."
"But this time it's different. Liu Daxia is right. This opportunity is really rare. General Xie established the palace and recruited talents. It is different from the usual selection of scholars by the court. As long as those with real talents and learning can stand out.
Moreover, my husband is humiliated by my two brothers today because they have no fame. I know that my husband is proud and arrogant, so he will definitely not go to his natal family or father to ask for an official position through me, so how can I
What about stopping your husband?"
Liu Muzhi nodded with satisfaction: "Madam, you understand justice well. If you have a wife like this, what else can a husband ask for?"
Jiang Qianwen stood up and smiled slightly at Liu Muzhi: "Husband and Liu Daxia, please sit down for a while while I go get some wine."
Jiang Qianwen said, bowed slightly to Liu Yu, nodded and saluted, and then walked out of the room. Liu Yu sighed: "Fat man, if you have such a wife, you will have no regrets in this life."
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "That's right, marrying her is really a blessing that I have cultivated in several lifetimes. It's just that I forgot that there was no wine at home, and I asked her to sell it on the spot. I kept you waiting for so long, I'm sorry."
Liu Yu smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, I've decided to drink the wine today. Come on, Fatty, let's talk about what happened after joining the army."
Half an hour later, Liu Muzhi frowned slightly: "Why haven't you come back after being gone for so long? It only takes a quarter of an hour to go back and forth to the Li's Restaurant at the head of the village."
Liu Yu was also a little nervous: "It's getting late, why don't we go out and take a look."
The two were about to get up when they heard Jiang Qianwen's voice outside the house: "I'm back."
Liu Muzhi and Liu Yu looked at each other and sat down. Jiang Qianwen pushed the door open and entered, holding a small jar of wine in her right hand and several lotus leaf parcels in her left hand.
Liu Muzhi asked curiously: "Madam, where have you been? Does it take so long to sell wine?"
Jiang Qianwen looked a little strange and shook her head: "In addition to selling wine, I also bought some snacks to go with the wine. Liu Daxia and her husband gathered together to discuss important matters. How can we drink without side dishes?"
As she spoke, she placed several lotus leaf bags on the small table. After opening them, a burst of meaty aroma came to her nostrils. She saw pig head meat in one bag, and sauced duck in another bag.
Three purses contained wind chicken, and the last purse contained a pack of drunken shrimps. As the wine jar was opened, the aroma of meat and wine mixed together, making people's mouths move.
For families like Liu Muzhi and Liu Yu, it is difficult to have such a sumptuous dinner even during holidays.
Liu Muzhi opened his mouth in surprise: "Madam, how come there are so many delicious foods? Where does the family get the money?"
Liu Yu also wanted to ask the same question, but his eyes fell on Jiang Qianwen, and he suddenly discovered that she was still in Jingchai's cloth skirt when she left, but now she had several square green handkerchiefs wrapped around her head, and under the green handkerchief,
But the thick black hair is no longer visible.
Liu Yu suddenly understood. It turned out that Jiang Qianwen actually cut off her own hair and sold it to those who worked as a prostitute. The money she earned was used to buy wine and snacks for herself and Liu Muzhi.
Liu Muzhi obviously also reacted. He immediately grabbed Jiang Qianwen's bare hand, with tears in his eyes: "Madam, how could you, how could you do this?"
Jiang Qianwen smiled slightly: "As long as it can make your husband happy, what's the problem? If your husband is not at home, there is no need for me to show my beautiful side to others. Okay, the wine is getting cold. Please use it, husband and Liu Daxia."
