Returning to Before Husband’s Castration

Chapter 68: Mastering the stick, but aiming for the yard

Ding Wu has always been a reliable image of a righteous brother, with a touch of warmth in his heart forever. Even when Wei Caiwei lived again, her mental age was enough to be Ding Wu's old lady, she still regarded Ding Wu as her elder brother and respected him as she did in the previous life.

Ding Wu had never been married in his previous life. Ding Rukui was released from prison to grant officials and returned family property. Ding Wu resumed his status as a student of the Imperial College, and did not marry and take the imperial examination.

Half of his life was bumpy, and the rest of his life was like a wild crane. He was passionate about the mountains and rivers, traveling around, and even went out to the Western Ocean for a time, followed the caravan to the Western Regions, and traversed the grasslands and deserts.

In the second half of his life, he made up for the regret of being trapped in Tieling and not being free in the first half of his life. In the second half of his life, he ran everywhere, leaving his footprints everywhere.

Just like a person who is extremely hungry, the only wish for the rest of his life is to eat a meal, nothing else.

Ding Wu is free and does not want to be tired by the family, nor does he want to make other's good girls stay vacant for the rest of their lives, so he simply does not get married.

Therefore, Ding Wu has no opinion on Wei Caiwei's choice to be the husband and wife of Wang Gonggong.

Ding Wu often told her that it’s good for the Banxia girl to be happy on her own, and don’t care about other people’s comments.

And in this life, Ding Wu seems to be interested in Lu Ying?

Lu Ying became a widow soon after marrying in his previous life, and finally chose to become a monk.

However, based on Wei Caiwei's current understanding of Lu Ying, she is only a pretense to get out of her husband's house and gain freedom. Lu Ying will not sit down and copy the scriptures. It is estimated that she will finally walk the rivers and lakes with her beloved saber.

Think about it this way, Lu Ying and Ding Wu actually ended up in the same life by different paths.

Wei Caiwei woke up in the middle of the night smelling the scent of peach crisps, watching Ding Wu yawning, fanning the freshly baked peach crisps with a fan, and quickly cooled them so that they could be wrapped and given to Lu Ying.

Anyway, she was full of problems and couldn't sleep, so she simply put on her clothes and went downstairs to ask Ding Wu.

"Sorry for waking you up." Ding Wu was a little sorry.

Wei Caiwei helped Ding Wu fan, "Is it for Lu Commander again?"

Ding Wu didn't change his face, "Yes, thank her for saving me."

Wei Caiwei: "Wang Daxia also saved you."

Ding Wu was still tensed, "Wang Daxia comes to eat dinner almost every day, and I will make an extra portion for him."

Ding Wu and high-ranking officials are reserved and graceful, but Wei Caiwei has a sharp temper, knowing that going around will definitely not bend the intestines of Ding Wu, so she simply said clearly: "Big Brother Ding is the leader of Xinyuelu, right?"

Ding Wu stood up, scooped water from the water tank to wash his face, "Say everything about a child. I'm in a world of difference from her."

Indeed, Ding Wu and Lu Ying have always had a disparity in identity. This is the case now, and it will be the same in the future. When Lu Bing died, Emperor Jiajing died. The Lu family was ransacked and imprisoned. By then, Ding Wu had regained her status as a noble son. If Lu Ying remained unmarried, she would be a prisoner.

The status of the two of them will never be equal. Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, either you are strong and I am weak, or I am weak and you are strong.

Wei Caiwei said: "Let's not talk about status, but just ask our own heart. How does Ding think of the leader of Lu?"

Ding Wu looked at the gradually calming reflection in the copper basin, "I admire her for walking out of her boudoir as a brocade guard, and her courage to never give up. If it hadn't been for seeing through her daughter under the water that night, I'm afraid I would have been in the drum for a lifetime. in."

"I sometimes think that if my dad had the fearless courage of Lu Ying when he was approaching the city, he would reject Yan Ge’s suggestion to guard the city gate and take the Ming army to fight to the death, perhaps the tragedy of many people, including you, And the Broker Chen who entered the palace, your tragedies in life will never happen."

Ding Wu has always been a kind and gentle person, not complaining, and even able to jump out of his natural position as a son of man and reflect on the mistakes his father may have made.

In any case, Ding Rukui is a scholar of the Ministry of War, the general of the world's soldiers and horses, he gave up resistance without even trying.

Even Lu Bing is better than Ding Rukui. Back then, Lu Bing violated the order to guard the city gate and went to ask Emperor Jiajing to open the city gate and let the refugees into the city. Lu Bing made the last effort at least in the worst case.

Wei Caiwei said: "No matter what, it's not your fault."

Ding Wu shook his head, "I have always been eager to do something to make up for my father's fault. Lu Ying gave me the opportunity. I don't dislike me as a weak scholar, so he uses me boldly, and stays up all night to make some snacks. It's too small to be concerned."

Wei Caiwei was dubious, "Just so?"

Ding Wu: "Of course."

The peach was so cold that Ding Wu wrapped it up quickly, and of course he had not forgotten to leave two yuan for Wei Caiwei, "I'll give you breakfast tomorrow-I'm going out early tomorrow, so I can't make breakfast for you."

Plucking can't see through Ding Wu's mind, in fact, he can't even himself.

A kiss under the water is not actually a kiss between a man and a woman, because it has nothing to do with love. Ding Wu felt that Lu Ying’s eyes were firm and her courage could infect him. Originally, Ding Wu thought he would be like this for a lifetime, but Lu Ying seemed to have light on his body, shining into his gloomy life, he instinctively stretched out his hand to want Grab this beam of light.

But after hearing the news about the marriage between the Lu family and the Wu family, Ding Wu felt that once Lu Ying married, her husband’s family probably wouldn’t allow her to continue to be such a woman disguised as a man. If the light were to be extinguished, he would want it again. Plunge into the boundless night.

Ding Wu knew that he was humble and couldn't change anything, but he couldn't stand on the ground like his father back then, without trying or resisting. He tried his best to express himself in front of Lu Ying, wanting to keep this light for a longer time.

Longer.

that is it.

When Wei Caiwei woke up the next day, Ding Wu went to Toutiao Hutong early in the morning.

The sound of horseshoes and whistles came from the alley downstairs.

It was Wang Daxia who was about to rush to the Jinyiwei Yamen. He deliberately took detours every day. When passing by, he would whistle. If Wei Caiwei had gotten up to dress up, she would open the window and smile at him and waved in response.

Hearing the movement, Wei Caiwei opened the window and said: "Wait a minute, there is something to hand to you."

Wei Caiwei went downstairs and gave Wang Daxia the peach cake that Ding Wu baked overnight, "to the leader of Lu."

He also gave Wang Daxia the Tao Su that Ding Wu left to her last night, "This is for errands."

Wang Daxia refused to ask, "You must not be full for breakfast with one peach crisp, two are enough."

Oh, this realization made Wei Caiwei look at him with admiration. After all, it is not easy for a person like Wang Daxia to give up the food he gets to his mouth!

My family has a husband.

Wei Caiwei watched Wang Daxia leave.

Wang Daxia rode out of Tianshui Alley, turned to Gulou West Xiejie, slowed down the horse, and opened the package-he was reluctant to eat Wei Caiwei's breakfast, but he would not hesitate to steal the dessert led by Lu!

Wei Caiwei is still too confident in him.

Wang Daxia opened the furoshiki, inside it was a familiar oil-paper bag. There was a note on the oil-paper bag with the words "Don't eat it" on it.

It was written by Ding Wu. He knew everything like a god. He knew that Wang Daxia had no boss and would steal Lu Ying's peach crisps.

However, this will not prevent the cheeky Wang Yanei from committing crimes.

I gave it to you. Commander Lu didn't know how many of them were in it. I stole two pieces and she couldn't see it. Besides, Ding Wu couldn't ask Lu Ying for this trivial matter, how many pieces of peach pastry you received!

Therefore, Wang Daxia still opened the tied red string and opened the oil paper bag. There was still a layer of oil paper wrapped with eight words on it, "a bag of peach crisps, eight in total."

Ding Wu's handwriting is beautiful and thin, and Wang Daxia can't imitate it. What's more, there is Ding Wu's inseparable small seal on the paper, and the seal-cut "Witch".

Mastering the stick, but aiming for the yard. Ding Wu knew Wang Daxia's virtues too well, and knew that the first note could not stop the gluttons in his stomach, and there was a second defense waiting for him.

Everything is to ensure that his mind is received by Lu Ying in its entirety. Can't be divided by Wang Daxia.

One piece will not work.

Wang Daxia sullenly, like a delivery machine with no emotions, gave Tao Su to Lu Ying.

Lu Ying explained today's task, "You find out all the portraits of Bailian believers that Jin Yiwei has collected over the years, and ask the painter to copy them all, and show them to the headline alleys in the evening."

The painters of Jin Yiwei are the most famous, and even the court painters are paid under the name of Jin Yiwei, so it is not a problem to copy the entire white lotus religion in one day.

Wang Daxia went down to work.

Lu Ying opened the oil paper bag, gave half of it to his father, and ordered it to be given to Lu Bing.

If usually, Lu Ying would send it in person, but since the last time Lu Bing reprimanded her violently after taking the pill, Lu Ying has always avoided face-to-face with his father, and the father-daughter relationship is a bit stiff.

Lu Bing sighed and shook his head repeatedly when he saw the snacks sent by his daughter. This girl's temper was so similar to me. After all, she is a girl. What should she do if I am not here in the future?

At the same time, another father is also worried about his children. It is the Alliance of the Worried Fathers, who is Wang Qianhu.

Wang Qianhu got the two thousand taels of silver returned by Doss that day. This was the silver exchanged by the original wife’s dowry field, which should have been given to Wang Daxia to re-purchase the Sanlitun dowry field.

Wang Qianhu has principles. Now that Wang's mansion is living tightly, he will not take his wife's dowry to fill in the big holes in the house.

But Wang Qianhu was worried that once the silver was handed over to Wang Daxia, he would take it away indiscriminately, so Wang Qianhu left the silver and went to Sanlitun outside Chaoyangmen to find the original buyer and redeem the original dowry field.

When he arrived at the location, Wang Qianhu almost thought he had remembered it wrong. The old farmland was enclosed by walls or fences. Houses, ancestral halls, etc. were built. There are several tombs like steamed buns in the northwest. The tombs are not covered yet. The grass is long, and there are some old green pine planted all around.

It turns out that the dowry field has been transformed into a cemetery and supporting sacrificial fields, sacrificial houses, etc. Even if the home is ransacked, as long as it is not an unforgivable crime, it is included in the exemption category and does not need to be confiscated.

Therefore, risk-conscious large families will generally set up ritual sacrifice houses, just in case, in the future, children and grandchildren will have a retreat, covered by tiles, as a shelter, and will not be defeated.

When Wang Qianhu looked at it, he knew that it was impossible to redeem this piece of land—everyone changed it to a sacrifice field, and the tomb was moved over, so how could it be returned to him!

Alas, this prodigal son is hard to harvest.

Although Tian could not be redeemed, Wang Qianhu wanted to find out who bought the original dowry field, so he went to the cemetery to look at the tombstones. They were written "Gao Zhan Yipin Madam Wu's Tomb" and "诰實來" "The Tomb of Mrs. Huang Yipin", "The Tomb of Mrs. Zhang Yipin", and the "Tomb of Zhao Clan's Deceased Wife".

There are actually three first-rate wives, is this the wealthy nobleman in the capital?

As he was thinking, the voice of the grave guard rang behind him, "This is the family graveyard of Master Lu, commanded by Jin Yiwei, and the idlers leave at the same speed!"

The author has something to say: Many readers have guessed that the buyer is Lu Bing, and that the house built by Li Jiubao's father and brother in Sanlitun was built for Lu Bing's family. Congratulations, everyone got the right answer! You are very careful.

Lu Bing's tomb is indeed located in Sanlitun, Beijing. More than five hundred years later, this place became a gathering place for bars, and every night drunk buyers were dancing at Lu Bing's grave. Lu Bing should never be lonely.

This is a textual research on the epitaph written by the cabinet minister and his relative Xu Jie to Lu Bing. The epitaph "Shijingtang Ji Donghu Lugong Epitaph" is recorded in the epitaph: When the public was preserved, the land was in Sanlitun outside Chaoyangguan. And Mou said: The meaning of the public cannot be violated.
