Chapter Thirty-Three Tongue Like a Sharp Blade
After sleeping until midnight, she was awakened by the noisy footsteps outside. Xu You opened his eyes and listened with his ears. A faint smile appeared on the corners of his lips.
Did these idiots realize that something was wrong until now?
He walked in with his clothes on his Autumn Equinox, looking a little panicked, and said, "Langjun, I don't know what's wrong with it outside, there are so many people!"
"Maybe the weather was too cold at night, and someone was frozen. I hope there would be no accident." After saying this blessing without sincerity, Xu You sat up and asked, "Did they disturb you?"
"Well..." The autumnal equinox obviously did not sleep well and looked a little haggard. She bent her knees and squatted down carefully for Xu You. Then she raised her head and said with a cute look: "Xiaolang, I can't sleep!"
Xu You lifted the quilt, jumped out of the bed, grabbed her little hand and walked out, and smiled and said, "Go and see who is so brave and dares to disturb my autumnal equinox?"
"Ah?" The autumnal equinox opened his mouth slightly, and was pulled by Xu You, and said, "Are you really going? But we are guests, it's not good to do this..."
The two of them went out from the side door and happened to meet a group of people who were walking hurriedly from the end of the corridor. With the light of the lantern that was immortal all night, they could see the person in front at first sight, the man in blue next to Sanniang who had met once during the day.
"It's such a night, I wonder what it's important to come to Yazhu?"
Xu You Shiran stood there, a slandered look flashing through his eyes. The maid in blue seemed to have not expected him to appear. She was stunned for a moment, then walked over and said coldly: "This is Yuan's Mansion. Where we want to go and when we want to go, there is no need for outsiders to ask!"
Xu You said in surprise: "I heard that Mr. Yuan manages his family with etiquette. From the wise and servants, they are all well-educated people. I didn't expect that there would be a erotic little lady like you?"
Swearing people without spitting dirty words is the specialty of cultural people. Xu You has already gained three of them. The maid in blue glared at her almond eyes and retorted, saying, "Do you dare to ask what kind of etiquette is? Do the barbarians who are illiterate for three lifetimes understand what is knowledgeable and well-educated?"
As soon as this said, the autumnal equinox standing behind Xu You suddenly changed his face, and his hands that had been hanging on his legs suddenly squeezed tightly. In fact, it was not that she was sensitive, but that this sentence had an allusion.
Xu You's great-grandfather, Xu Yu, who was "Three Determinations of Jiangnan", after Sui Anshi Yu pacified the world, once dozens of monarchs and ministers inspected Shitou City. Because a guard guard drunken on the night before, the king lost his manners before the king was defeated. Shen Jing, then the champion general, drew his sword in front of everyone. Therefore, Anshi Yu sighed: "A gentleman has something to do with himself and then seeks others, but he has nothing to do with himself and then not others. What he hides is not forgiven, but can describe others, but has never been able to describe others! Shen Qing, do you know how to explain this? "
This is the words in "The Great Learning", which have very simple meanings. A gentleman needs to ask others for his strengths after he has possessed them, and criticize others after he has lost them. What he has is not the way of forgiveness, but he can teach others, which is never possible.
Shen Jing was sweating profusely, and quickly threw away the long sword with blood flowing, kneeling on the ground and dared not answer. An Shiyu asked Xu Xi what to explain this sentence. Xu Xi replied calmly, "I am a member of the world and have never read for three lifetimes. I rely on Your Majesty to have the present of Xu." Therefore, I don't need to understand the principles of these saints, I just need to know loyalty to assist Your Majesty, with no dialect and no rules, that's it!
Master An laughed louder and praised Xu Qi's daughter, and did not punish Chen Jing. But from then on, Shen, Wuxing, began to regard Xu Jie as a thorn in his eyes and a thorn in his flesh, and he would not be removed quickly.
Later, because of this incident, people in the market like to add a sentence "I can't read for three lifetimes", either without malicious jokes or intentional ridicule. However, no matter which one it was, everyone was afraid of the power of the Xu family and no one dared to say this sentence in person.
"you……"
The autumnal equinox took a step forward and pointed at the maid in green, which was very angry. If she hadn't been worried about this being the Yuan Mansion and could not cause trouble for Xu You, she would have slapped her in the face.
The maid in green snorted coldly, not looking at the autumnal equinox, but just looked at Xu You provocatively, as if she was deliberately trying to irritate him.
Xu You smiled slightly, grabbed the autumnal equinox, leaned into her ear, and whispered: "Why are you angry? The dog bites you, can you still bite the dog?"
After hearing what Xu You said, I looked at the maid in green, who looked like a fierce and fierce look, and was really like a vicious dog. The autumnal equinox burst out laughing, and the anger that had just surged into my heart disappeared.
"I will answer your first question first. What is etiquette? Etiquette is the sutra of heaven, the righteousness of earth, and the actions of the people!" Xu You put his hands on his face and stood tall. There was no emotional fluctuation on his handsome face, as if he was telling something that had nothing to do with himself, and said: "Since you claim to be knowledgeable and well-educated, and you are the personal maid of the three nuns of the Yuan family who are praised by the world, you must be familiar with the Five Classics and know the meaning of the sutra. Can you tell me what to explain this sentence?"
The servant in Qingyi was there, and she didn't even know the source of this sentence, so how could she interpret it? But if she couldn't answer, she would be ugly tonight. It didn't matter if her face was completely lost. But Xu You pulled Yuan Qingqi in without mercy and told him that it hurt Sanniang's face.
"Who told you that I am Sanniang's maid..."
Xu You looked at her with an idiot and said, "I thought you were very smart, but I didn't expect you to be a fool. Who are you? I'm afraid everyone in the mansion knows. Should I ask Manager Feng now?"
"I, I..." The maid in green stammered, but couldn't say a word. You should know that she was very erotic and eloquent, and she had never met any rivals in the Yuan Mansion. She never thought that she would defeat Xu You tonight. She was angry and said without saying anything. "You are not allowed to mention Sanniang. You have written a letter of divorce. Now you are just a devastating Qimin. What qualifications are you qualified to mention Sanniang?"
"It's true that I came prepared. If Xu's family is still there, you probably wouldn't dare to be so arrogant! After all, it's just a little girl who is inclined to the point of being in a state of affairs. What do you do with me and I do with these words?" Xu You shook his head and laughed, then said coldly, "I forgive you, a slave, and you shouldn't have read "Zuo Zhuan". This is the answer in "Zuo Zhuan? The 25th Year of Zhaogong". If you don't understand, you can go back and ask your master, let her explain it to you, and let her teach you what is the real etiquette!"
The maid in blue felt a scorching pain on her face. For the first time, she realized what it means to be like a sharp blade, and every word is stung to the heart. She didn't dare to look at Xu You again, and turned around and said angrily: "What are you doing while standing? Why don't you leave quickly?"
After saying that, he walked around Xu You's body, lowered his head and walked away quickly. Behind her was Lu Shuang, who was supported by three or four people. She was wearing clothes that were obviously not very fit, revealing half of her smooth calves, her face turned pale like paper, her whole body was trembling, and her eyes were tightly closed. I don't know if she was really unconscious or she felt that she had no face when she saw Xu You, so she simply fainted.
Seeing her look like this, Xu You felt a little unbearable, but he would also harm others. It was just a small punishment that was worthy of her!
Xu You turned around and walked two steps, stopped and turned around, and said strangely: "Let's go, after watching the fun, are you still reluctant to leave?"
The autumnal equinox was awakened like a dream, and hurriedly agreed to come over and asked constantly: "When did you read "Zuo Zhuan"? My maid followed her every day, but she never saw such a sage book in the room..."
"...Aren't you unable to sleep? I'll go back and find the Zuo Chuan to you later. You can't sleep if you can't finish reading!"
"Xiaolang, I don't want to see if I can..."
"Can't!"
"Okay... Can you just watch a little one in one night and finish it in thirty or fifty years? Is it okay?"
"You, sooner or later, you will be lazy!"
The next morning, just after having breakfast with the autumnal equinox, Feng Tong appeared at the gate of Yazhu and smiled and said, "How did you sleep last night?"
"It's great, the sound of wind and bamboo is heard, thank you very much!"
"That's good, that's good!"
Feng Tong acted in no way, and he didn't know if he knew what happened last night. However, if he didn't mention it, Xu You was so happy to pretend to be confused and ordered to stay in the room with Feng Tong to see Yuan Jie by himself.
"Qilang, come and have a look at this "Shihaiting Story"!"
As soon as Xu You entered the door, Yuan Jie waved to him excitedly. When he walked to the edge of the desk, he saw several feet of silkworm cocoon paper spread out on the table. The lines of cursive script were like the long source of the clear stream, flowing and infinite, and like the county monkey drinking stream, with hooks and locks, and he was immediately surprised and praised: "What a white stroke!"
Yuan Jie smiled and said, "Qilang is indeed an expert. A Yuan started to study in Chi since he was a child and studied under many schools, but most of them were not the best. Only Zhang Zhi's writings learned seven points of charm."
Zhang Zhi was a native of the Han Dynasty. He used silk as paper to learn calligraphy in the pool. Day after day, even the water in the pool turned black, so calligraphy is also called "Linchi". Zhang Zhi's calligraphy is also called "Yibi Shu".
It turned out to be Yuan Qingqi's word. Xu You felt aroused in his heart and looked down again. As the saying goes, it is said that people can be seen by words, but if you look carefully at her handwriting, it reveals a bit of restraint in the flying and free manner, and a bit of elegant and eccentric aura hidden in the restraint. Although he has the charm of Zhang Zhishu's strong bones and rich muscles, he has too much hesitation and reluctance.
This is a contradictory person, a complex person, or even a lonely person. There must be something very difficult in her heart, which lingers in her heart day and night, so it will naturally be presented to the pen.
But Yuan Qingqi was born in Yuan, and was rich and talented, and famous from all over the world. What other difficulties will such a person not be solved?
If it were before, Xu You might have thought it was related to his marriage, but now the letter of departure has been written, and the two have long lost their relationship, but the voice in their writing is still so heavy. I think it should be something else to do.
But no matter what she was, after the trouble last night, Xu You also felt about Yuan Qingqi to the bottom. He just hoped to get it done quickly, and then ride a crane to Yangzhou with a hundred thousand yuan in his pocket!
"Qiro, Qiro?"
"Oh," Xu You said ashamed: "When you see this word, you can imagine that Sanniang is so beautiful that she can't help but be stunned. Don't blame Mr. Yuan!"
Yuan Jie waved his hand and gestured, with a faint look in his eyes and said, "Qilang is not more powerful than Qian. Although A Yuan's calligraphy is a little successful, it is still far from you."
Xu You immediately understood that this man was also competitive. Yesterday, he saw that he wrote a letter of departure for money without any nostalgia. Today, he deliberately showed off Yuan Qingqi's talent. Of course, he did not mean to repent, but he was a little unwilling to win back the city.
Of course, Xu You would not be angry with an old man. He smiled, then he went to read the content of the article and chanted softly:
Chapter completed!
