Chapter 51 051: Danglu sells wine (Part 1)
Shen Tang's words made Chu Yao pause, but he quickly returned to normal, and the bitterness on his face turned into calmness: "In life, you have to believe in something to live, or to comfort yourself, this is just a 'gentleman'. Hidden in the body, wait for the time to move'."
Otherwise, living is too difficult.
It's all his painstaking efforts to endure this day by day.
It has been 15 years since I was replaced by Wenxin one year before the coronation, I had that dream, and then I was displaced several times.
Shen Tang sighed: "But this is too bitter."
Obviously, you don’t have to suffer so much. Instead of sticking to a "prophecy" that has no credibility, it is better to take the current path.
Chu Yao shook his head and remained silent.
Facing the reality, has he never wavered?
Naturally impossible.
He is just an ordinary person, and he will be shaken in the face of endless tribulations, more than once.
It's just that every time there is a sign of wavering, he is stifled by himself. One, his temper does not allow him to give up halfway, and two, that dream is the only time in his life to use the "Way of the Scholar", how can he be reconciled without looking at the result and his destiny?
You can know the destiny, and you can solve the stubborn illness...
If the prophecy on the prescription in the dream comes true, it means that his life will be truly reversed, and whether he will be happy, instead of spending his whole life rolling and crawling in the mud at the bottom of the mundane with his lowly status.
The only thing I didn’t expect was—
Chu Yao tilted his head slightly, secretly peeping at Shen Tang.
Goro is far from the destiny he imagined.
The destiny he thought was a hero, a reckless bandit, or a knight-errant... that person should be open-minded and free-spirited by nature, he should not care about trifles, his family status, he would not be partial to others, and he would not be so stupid as to think that scholars are gone. Wen Xin is worthless, and he doesn't mind letting a "bad guy" like him flex his muscles.
However, there are always discrepancies between reality and ideals.
This Tianming, who was riding on the back of a white mule, looked like an eleven or twelve-year-old young man who knew nothing about the world. At first glance, it didn't match the plans he had deduced and formulated countless times over the years.
It is indeed a bit lively and naive and simple.
Shen Tang didn't have the ability to peek into people's hearts, so naturally he didn't know what Chu Yao was thinking about with so little effort.
He muttered to himself: "Ginseng, rhubarb, aconite, rehmannia... These should be the four treasures of medicinal materials, right? Does it refer to the four treasures county?"
Coincidentally, Xiaocheng is the prefecture of Sibao County.
Chu Yao said lightly: "Yes."
Shen Tang realized.
"Then I understand how to interpret this prescription."
Yuehua is the easiest to understand in twos and threes.
On the surface, it sounds like some kind of weird medicine introduction—because according to the general medicine prescription, the so-called "Moonlight" should be the morning dew on the leaves or petals that absorbs enough of the essence of the sun.
Collect three or two, as a medicine for torment.
But it can also be explained from another angle.
Yuehua can refer to Yuehua Building. Sanliang may have other explanations, but Chu Yao thinks that Sanliang refers to "sanliang redeeming silver", which is why she came up with the previous sentence, but she is still a little puzzled.
"What is the destiny? What is the stubborn illness? Just guessing from the words, I think I am the 'destiny', but I don't know how to cure the stubborn illness? Is there another chance?"
Chu Yao lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "I don't know."
"I really don't know?"
Chu Yao looked as usual: "I don't know."
Shen Tang didn't ask any more questions, thinking in his heart, "It's pitiful for Mr. Chu to have no one to rely on. If they get along well, I'd like to give him the old age for the sake of 'half-teacher's kindness' in the future, anyway. If you are young and strong, you cannot afford to support an old man."
"Sir..."
The whole journey was silent, but Shen Tang had mild ADHD.
It’s either hands, feet or mouth, or the heart is so active that it flies, and it’s uncomfortable when you’re idle, and you have to find a topic to talk to yourself.
Chu Yao doesn't seem to be praying for good, the latter sometimes looks at her, but the former is very face-saving, and responded immediately.
"What is Goro's order?"
"Uh..." Shen Tang was stunned for a moment. She was actually fine, but she just couldn't stay idle. Chu Yao responded, but she didn't know what to ask. Suddenly, she remembered what happened in Yuehua Building, "Mr. Do you know the words to spy on people's hearts?"
"I know, why did Goro suddenly ask this?"
Shen Tang feels aggrieved when she thinks of that "Mr. Gu". For a person with vigorous mental activities like her, "Mr. Gu" is an existence that will always be blacklisted. She said: "Just now I met a scribe in Yuehua Building, his ability to read minds is amazing..."
"sharp?"
"A face-to-face meeting will be read and spied on, and there is no privacy at all." Shen Tang asked for advice, "How to deal with this?"
"People's hearts are separated from the belly." Chu Yao was calm and unwavering.
Shen Tang said "ah", but didn't react for a while.
"What is 'people's hearts are separated from the belly'?"
Chu Yao said: "The spirit of speech that resists peeping. But it is of little significance to learn it or not, and it is not used in general. There are not a few scribes who practice the spirit of peeping, but very few can learn it. Wenxin poses a huge burden. If the person being peeped is also a scholar of Wenxin and has a certain degree of defense, the price to be paid is even greater, and there is a danger of being backlashed if one is not careful."
Similar peeking at the mind and talking about the soul, he also secretly learned it after replacing Wen Xin, and he is still "familiar" by recitation.
Shen Tang: "That's how it is. No wonder that man's short-lived, consumptive appearance made people suspect that he would learn to fly a kite to the sky as soon as the wind blows. It's just that this kind of speech is such a burden, it must be abused on me? Or do you think he has a life span? too long?"
Big burden?
I really can't see it.
Shen Tang felt that that person was quite capable.
Chu Yao has never seen the scribes in Shen Tang’s mouth, so naturally he has no way of judging, but one thing is certain——
"If you are not kind, keep it at a respectful distance."
Regardless of whether the scribe is powerful enough to ignore the burden, or his "scholar's way" is to spy on the heart, it is not a good thing.
"I understand this, but the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop... I just hope that I won't be so unlucky and burn on me."
Some things are beyond her reach.
Given the relationship between her and Gong Cheng, that boy and Mr. Gu will not really feel at ease with her, and maybe they will send someone to investigate secretly.
It is easy to hide with an open gun, but it is difficult to defend against a hidden arrow.
Thinking of this, Shen Tang shook his head—
She is not the original owner herself, and she has no intention of interfering in messy things, and Gong Cheng will not betray her, after all, the two of them are grasshoppers on the same rope in a sense.
She was arrested, how can Gong Cheng sit back and relax?
As an unpretentious, law-abiding commoner, instead of worrying about big people's messes, it's better to think about how to make money.
Which one does not need money for basic necessities of life?
After she crossed the river and demolished the Qishan bridge, she could only "depend on each other" with Mr. Chu, and the burden of supporting the two fell on her shoulders. She is a strong young man who doesn't support her family, so she can't expect Mr. Chu to go out and wash the dishes to support them, right?
Still have to make money.
Shen Tang had a flash of inspiration and had an idea.
"Come on, let's go wholesale wine jars."
9.1, that is, it will be on the shelves tomorrow. I am a little nervous and rub my hands together.
