Chapter 607 Very knowledgeable village aunt

Di Renjie admired Wu Meiniang very much, otherwise he would not want to marry her sister. But the matter between Wu Meiniang and Li Zhi is a big secret, and Wang Ping'an had never told him. Although Di Renjie felt that there might be something wrong with it, he was different from Wang Ping'an after all.

For a Tang Dynasty man and a scholar who received feudal education since childhood, it is basic common sense to be a respected scholar and must be done. So Wang Ping'an glared at him and did not allow him to ask more questions. Then for him, there is no reason for nothing. This is the normal mentality of a normal scholar who does not want to rebel!

He thought Wu Meiniang was dead, but here he suddenly saw a village girl, a chubby village girl wearing shabby clothes, standing in this dilapidated yard... If he imagined this village girl as the peerless Wu Meiniang, then he would not be Di Renjie, but the Great Saint Jie, and could be side by side with the Great Saint An!

Di Renjie said aloud, stunned, thinking: "This person looks quite similar to Sister Wu! It's just that he looks similar, but his spirit is much worse. Moreover, his skin is a little rough, his waist is a bit thick, and he looks stupid. At first glance, he is a woman who has never seen the world and can only circle the pot!"

Wu Meiniang's heart was beating wildly, thinking: "Xiao Di has recognized me now? I thought I had eaten so hard these days, gained so much weight, and pretended to be a village girl, so he wouldn't recognize me. Is there less black and gray on my face?"

In order not to make people recognize who she was, she carefully put on makeup. Of course, it was impossible to turn into another person. The Tang Dynasty did not have such high makeup skills, and there was no such thing as plastic surgery. But no matter what, a palace maid and a village girl were also a big difference. The palace maid belonged to the highest female class in the Tang Dynasty society at that time. She now looks like a penniless woman, pregnant, and suffering from domestic violence, and was abandoned in a foreign land... In short, a woman who is so miserable that she is no longer miserable!

Can you still recognize me like this? Wu Meiniang feels frustrated. Could it be that today's encounter will lead to difficulties and create problems?

Di Renjie stared at Wu Meiniang in a daze, and Wu Meiniang looked at him in fear!

Wu Xiaomei asked strangely: "Dilang, do you recognize her?"

Di Renjie uttered, shook his head, and said, "If I don't recognize you, I will not have any acquaintances here. But this person looks a bit... How can I say it, it seems familiar!" After saying that, he did not say hello to Wu Meiniang and took Wu Xiaomei to the backyard again.

But Wu Xiaomei looked at Wu Meiniang curiously. When she parted with Wu Meiniang, she was still a little girl. Wu Meiniang looked vaguely and couldn't remember what her second sister looked like. Even if she grew up, when she heard that others talked about her second sister who was a talented person in the palace, others would say good things, such as beautiful, elegant temperament, and so on. In her heart, she had already regarded her second sister, who was old, as the most perfect woman in the world!

As for the woman in front of me, she really can't match the perfection at all! Judging from her appearance, she is already over thirty and almost forty, and she is a little silly. Could it be that this village aunt or aunt is still stupid?

The two walked past Wu Meiniang and looked at the village aunt with a "silly look". Wu Xiaomei suddenly whispered: "It looks very pitiful to her. Dilang, do you have money? Give her some more!"

Di Renjie nodded and thought to himself: "Yes, I should give her some money. How can I say this woman? She is somewhat similar to Sister Wu. With this, I should help her." He took out a small purse from his arms, which contained golden gourd seeds. He has now developed a habit. If he has something to do or not, he likes to reward others with golden gourd seeds.

When Wu Meiniang saw him taking out the money bag, she thought to herself: "This is to reward me and also to reward melon seeds. He really treats Wang Ping'an as a role model!"

But Di Renjie looked at him with the purse, put the purse back in his arms, and took out another purse, which was larger than the one just now!

Wu Meiniang thought to herself: "What are you doing? How much do you want to reward me? Did he recognize who I am? Are you pretending to be confused?"

Di Renjie took out his big purse, but thought to himself: "I'm confused. I was so confused just now. If I give her a village girl, how could she spend it? If I want to add gold to this small place, it's not easy, right? If someone snatched it away and hurt her again, wouldn't it be bad? Just give her some copper coins, it's easier to spend it!"

He was very kind and thoughtful about the village aunt and aunt. He replaced the golden melon seeds with copper coins, poured out more than twenty yuan, and said with a smile: "Auntie, I'll give you this little money. Please buy a pair of shoes to wear. I see that your shoes are torn."

Wu Meiniang opened her mouth wide and thought to herself: "This is not pretending to be confused, it is because she really didn't recognize me, and she actually called me an aunt!"

Looking at her wide mouth, Wu Xiaomei and Di Renjie thought at the same time: "It's really a silly, so pitiful!" Wu Xiaomei took the money from Di Renjie's hand, stuffed it into Wu Meiniang's hand, and whispered: "Hold it!"

Wu Meiniang took the copper coins and thought to herself: "I didn't recognize me. It seems that my makeup is still good. I ate and slept these days, and the effect is significant."

She looked at Wu Xiaomei, this is her little sister. She has grown up so old and looks very pretty, but she seems a little sick, and her body is still not strong. It has been hard for her and her mother over the years. I wonder how her step brother at home abused them!

Seeing that the aunt and aunt in this village showed closeness in their eyes, Wu Xiaomei smiled at her and thought to herself: "It's so good, it's so good to be a good person. No wonder my uncle always likes to be a good person!"

Di Renjie looked into the backyard, yelled, and said, "Don't go in. I see that there is someone's clothes inside are covered with blood, which looks a bit scary."

When Wu Xiaomei heard that there was blood, she immediately turned her head and said, "I am most afraid of seeing blood. If I don't go in, I won't go in. I... would rather go back to serve my mother." In fact, she didn't want to leave, and wanted to stay with Di Renjie for a while, but if she couldn't go in and saw the bloody treatment scene, she had to go back. She couldn't find an excuse to stay longer, and she wouldn't make excuses.

Di Renjie hurriedly said, "Don't... don't be so anxious. I look at Mrs. Wu. She seems to be asleep. Let's not disturb her."

Wu Xiaomei blinked and said honestly: "No, I just said I wanted to soak my feet, and she never slept so early."

Di Renjie scratched his head and said, "Then..." He suddenly glanced at Wu Meiniang. Why not use this woman as a topic? I asked her about the customs and customs of Qingzhou, but she looked a little dazed. I wonder if she could answer it. If she had nothing to say, it would be boring.

Is it not easy to say something? He asked with a smile: "Auntie, have you eaten?"

Wu Meiniang was angry and helpless in her heart. What was angry was that Di Renjie couldn't recognize him. What was helpless was that he was not familiar with him and had never met him several times. It was unrealistic to let others recognize him directly. Fortunately, he did not recognize him, otherwise the trouble would be greater.

Wu Meiniang looked at Wu Xiaomei. When her little sister grew up, she felt sad and happy in her heart. She answered Di Renjie a little slower. When Di Renjie asked again, "Auntie, have you eaten?"

At this time, Wu Meiniang wanted to pretend to be poor, so she naturally couldn't say she had eaten. She shook her head and said slowly in a slightly Shu-sounding tone: "No, no food to eat." No food to eat and no food to eat are two different concepts.

Di Renjie glanced at Wu Xiaomei and thought to himself: "Look, there is a topic. She has no food to eat, which means she is too poor."

Wu Xiaomei has been treated with cold eyes and abuse from her stepbrother for many years, and she often has no food and clothing and is not warm, so she empathizes with the poor. She said to Wu Meiniang: "Auntie, are you the landlord's wife? It doesn't look like you, but you are also a tenant like us?" The tone of her speech also revealed the sound of Shu.

Aunt, the little sister calls me an aunt, what should she call me... Big girl? Wu Meiniang shook her head, stretched out her fingers to her lips, and whispered, "You can't let the landlord hear me. I don't have money to pay the house, I'm afraid they will drive me away."

Di Renjie wrinkled his nose and thought to himself: "I heard that her accent seems to be from the Bashu area, but with the accent from other places, I can't even tell where she is!"

He shook his head and said, "If you can't afford the house, the landlord will naturally drive you away, but why didn't you be driven away by him?" Although the village girl in front of him was very strong and chubby, she wouldn't be unable to drive away, right? It's strange that since she is a poor village girl, why is she so fat? She has to be much fatter than the martial arts girl.

Wu Meiniang pretended to be pitiful and lowered her head and said, "I am pregnant with a child. If he drives me away, I will have to die at the door of his house!"

"One corpse and two lives! Don't do such a fool!" Wu Xiaomei said hurriedly. She felt sorry for Wu Meiniang's experience and reached out to hold her sleeve.

Wu Meiniang was moved. After all, she was her own sister. Even if she changed her appearance and couldn't recognize who she was, this family affection still existed like a broken thread.

She said, "I just said I would die at the door of his house and hang it on his door frame. He would not dare to drive me away. I plan to give birth to the child at his house!"

Sister Wu whispered, her mouth opened, is this okay?

Di Renjie exclaimed and thought to himself: "This method is good. When you are desperate, as long as you are thick-skinned and will not leave, no one can do anything to her."

Wu Xiaomei was surprised and asked, "Then aren't you afraid that the landlord will report to the official and send a service to drive you away?"

Wu Meiniang shook her head and said, "Not afraid. The landlord told me that too, but I told him that if he sued me and asked the servant to drive me away, I would go to the yamen to hang myself. This disaster would be caused by him. The official will definitely deal with him, so he dare not report to the official!"

This time, Wu Xiaomei's mouth opened and couldn't close. She still thought to herself, is this okay?

Di Renjie said, "Your method really has no way to solve it! If you really run to the gate of the yamen to hang yourself, then the officials will not be scared to death. During the period of administration, a pregnant woman who was robbed of a body and complained about the wrongdoing, she would have to alarm the entire Qingzhou officialdom. Even the Chang'an court must know about this! Such a dark stroke was drawn to the face of the local official, and the future of the official would have to be completely over, and there would be no more time to make a comeback!"

Thinking of taking over as the magistrate of Heshui County, Di Renjie thrust his mouth and said it was difficult to be a local official. The woman in front of him was simply... a troublemaker!

Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "So the landlord dared not sue me, because he was afraid of causing trouble for the official."

Wu Xiaomei clapped her hands and said, "Auntie, you are so smart that you can come up with such a good way to live in a house in vain. My mother and I didn't expect it at the beginning!"

When they were in their hometown, Mrs. Yang and Wu Xiaomei were abused by their sons born to two wifes, and they robbed the property that originally belonged to them, but the mother and mother were helpless and didn't know how to protect themselves. They never thought of reporting to the official for help. Of course, even if they report to the official, it would be useless. The two brothers of the Wu family would settle the official and make them unable to win!

Wu Meiniang’s method is that if you force me to not be able to survive, then I will not live. I will hang myself at your yamen. I have no life and you will not be an official!

The politics of the early Tang Dynasty was quite clear, and of course it was not very good in private, but at least all officials and masters were open and upright. If anyone sacrificed their lives and did not fight against them, then masters had no choice but to appease them and even pay for their own money to settle them. Otherwise, wouldn’t they be an official?

Wu Xiaomei thought to herself: "It would be great if I had met this aunt earlier. Her trick would have been very good. As long as she made a fuss, she would not be afraid that the official would not judge the property back to us. But it was a bit embarrassing to do this. Mom would never do it. She would rather starve to death than do such a thing that would make the Wu family lose face!"

They were talking here, and a guard ran into the outside, carrying a medicine bag in his hand. The guard smiled at Di Renjie and ran over Wu Meiniang!

Wu Xiaomei said, "He took medicine, was he treating the landlord?"

Di Renjie nodded and said, "It should be. If you don't want to watch it, then let's go back!" He originally wanted to talk to the village girl and took the opportunity to wait with Wu Xiaomei for a while, but after that, he talked about how to deal with Master Guan. How dare he continue to talk!

Wu Xiaomei nodded obediently and said, "Okay, then let's go back!" Seeing Di Renjie turning around and walking out, she hurriedly followed, took two steps, but turned around and asked Wu Meiniang, "Auntie, will the solution you think will be effective against Master Guan?"

Wu Meiniang smiled and said, "It must be effective. I know them best as an official. As long as you think about how they can keep an official and be promoted, you will definitely be able to guess!"

Wu Xiaomei snorted, feeling that it made sense, but she didn't have any special reaction.

Di Renjie suddenly turned around and looked at Wu Meiniang in surprise. How could this woman understand the mentality of the officials so well? This is not the knowledge that a village girl should have!

Wu Meiniang lowered her head and counted the copper coins in her hand and said, "If you suffer too much loss from being an official, you will naturally guess what they think!"
