    [1] Idioms in "Man's Words Are Frightening"

    People's words are awesome, but everyone's words make money.

    As Liu Ruyan walked, she thought: How can I keep Wan Zhedu?

    She recalled Zhe Du's long words of berating Mrs. Yu, and felt that it was very useful to have a sentence "people's words are fearsome". Didn't the Yu family always want to save face?  Today in the small circle of the family, the old lady has the final say, and she can refuse the marriage regardless of face. If it is spread outside, see if your old lady is still ruthless, are you afraid?  Well, let's make a fuss about "people's words are awesome".  Ruyan finished her case and came to the inner hall happily.

    Madam Yu was still sitting in the living room, as if she was also annoyed by Zhe Du's words.

    I thought to myself: Anyway, now that I have turned my face and the marriage has been rejected, there is no need to keep Wansheng in the West Wing. I have to let him go, as far away as possible.  But how do you open your mouth to drive him away?

    At the beginning, I asked him to move here, but now I want to drive him away, which is not easy to say.  Of course, the marriage contract can be broken, and it is a trivial matter to rush away after Sheng, but there must be an excuse.  You can ask your daughter to call "Brother for help" if you want to marry, and then you can get away with it.  Chasing guests is useless, and I can't let my daughter say "brother, mother wants you to move out of the West Wing".

    Just when there was nothing to do, Ruyan came back.

    Mrs. Yu had an idea, she thought she might as well listen to Ruyan's report, see how the boy surnamed Wan reacts, and see if he can take the opportunity to drive away.

    At this time, Ruyan had come to the old lady, and said: "The old lady is here, see you Ruyan."

    Mrs. Yu said: "Forget it, I ordered you to send off Mr., how is it now?"

    Ruyan thought about it, you asked a good question, I was just about to say it.  Then he replied: "Reporting to the old lady, it's better not to mention this kind of unreasonable poor scholar. Mentioning him will really make him pissed off!"

    "Why is he unreasonable? Why is he mad at you?"

    "I was ordered to send him off, but he scolded me instead."

    Madam Yu felt a little strange, it was fine for Wan Sheng to scold me, why would she scold you, a little girl?  Then he asked, "Why did he scold you? You must have offended him."

    "How dare Ruyan offend him!"

    "What is that for?"

    "He called me a liar, said he was tricked by me, and tricked him into marrying him. I didn't know it was a refusal. In fact, I didn't know that your old lady was going to renege on the marriage. I was just sent by order. I was really wronged.  In addition, that poor scholar said a lot of ugly things. I am too embarrassed to say it, so I don¡¯t need to say it. If you don¡¯t listen, your heart will be clear.¡±

    [2] "Out of sight, out of mind" Buddhist words

    Buddha said,

    Out of sight, out of mind;

    If the ear does not listen, the heart will be quiet;

    If the heart doesn't want to, the six roots will be pure.

    Madam Yu has a temper. After listening to the last sentence, if she doesn't tell her the next sentence, she will feel very uncomfortable.  Even if the next sentence is scolding her, she will get angry after listening to it.

    Ruyan heard that Meipan said that the old lady had this problem, so she came up with a "provoking method", not telling you first, you must listen, then I can take the opportunity to scold people.

    "Just tell me how bad the scholar is."

    "It was he who was talking nonsense, and what he said made the old lady angry, and he wanted to blame me for being so talkative."

    "It's what the scholar said, and it has nothing to do with you. Forgive your innocence."

    "He called you stupid, shameless, immature, reneging on the engagement, you must be insane"

    "Oh! The scolding is too much!"

    "This is all said by that poor man. He also said that you are in vain as the wife of a high-ranking official, and you don't even want your own identity and dignity. You are really ungrateful, and you will do such a shameful thing as denying your marriage. It is really useless to live in this worldOld lady  , listen, is this crazy student scolding fiercely? And one on the left is denying the marriage, and the other on the right is denying the marriage, as if it is against the law of heaven to refuse marriage."

    Mrs. Yu felt very uncomfortable when she heard this, but she had to pay attention to self-restraint in front of her servants, so she couldn't show her anger or emotion, and said pleasantly: "It's okay to let him scold a few words for this kind of person.  Don't worry about it."

    "Old lady, you are magnanimous, and I can't stand Ruyan. We are dignified, how can we let him discredit us?" I replied with a few words to him, and I can't let him bully us. We are weak.  "

    "Then what did you say to him?"

    "I said to him, don't talk about your marriage, but keep your mouth shut. What's wrong with your marriage? You're going to grab the sky and the earth after your first marriage? Look at your poor appearance, let me tell you, we are rich and honored."  People don't think it's strange to be married. If you want to marry, you can rely on it. If you want to match, you can??, it¡¯s better than everyday food, you don¡¯t need to be earth-shattering like you.  You don't even find a fortune teller for yourself, even if you have a beautiful personality and are a natural match with my lady, but you are a poor scholar, can you be worthy of the daughter of our Yu Mansion?  My old lady has very high requirements for family status, your family status is so low, you say, the family is not right, the household is not right, how can it match?  Wait!  When you win the No. 1 Scholar and become a high-ranking official, my old lady will not refuse to marry you, and you will have to prepare a generous dowry!  Old madam, do you think what Ruyan said is right?  "

    Although Mrs. Yu felt that the smell was not right, she probably said so when she wanted to make trouble with scholars.  She didn't expect that the little girl Ruyan was making it up, so she asked again: "What happened next?"

    "Later he said, fortunately, he repelled the robbers and saved the lives of our family. He is our great benefactor. He did not repay the favor and refused to marry him. He was deceiving too much! I said to him, don't always pretend to be a benefactor.  Retiring the thief not only saved my family, but also saved yourself. If the robbers set fire to the monastery, you will die together, too?"

    After hearing this, Mrs. Yu nodded her head in praise, "Ruyan, well said!"

    "Let me tell you, you are so poor, you can live in our house for nothing for nothing. The old lady treats you sincerely, you don't know how to appreciate it, and you still cling to your marriage. It's really unreasonable!"

    "How did he say?"

    "He said I was no good, but he didn't want to argue with me. He said that the refusal of the marriage had nothing to do with my Ruyan's business. It was all the old lady's fault. However, right and wrong have their own opinions.  , first go to Fengyuan City [referring to Chang¡¯an City], go to the tea house and wine shop to discuss it all over, and get justice. Then go to the provincial government office to find Mr. Wang, and tell him about the old lady¡¯s refusal to get married. What else do you want?  Write a debunking post[1] about the history of the marriage. Old madam, Ruyan doesn¡¯t understand what is debunking, so let him write it. Scholars don¡¯t have much talent except for writing bad articles.¡±

    Madam Yu was startled when she heard this.  This Wansheng is so powerful, if I give him such a publicity, won't I ruin my reputation!  He hurriedly said: "Ah! Ruyan, what should I do!"

    "Don't be afraid, old lady. Let him talk about it. It's nothing serious. It's not painful or painful to talk about. Anyway, we don't see it, so we don't worry about it. The poor know it, but we can't help it. The rich people know it.  , They are also dependent on marriage, everyone is commonplace!"

    Notes

    [1] Disclosure

    Jietie is the notice and announcement called posting in the old days.

    After the Tang Dynasty, Jietie was a way for peasant uprisings to propagate to the public.

    Initially, the peasant rebels only knew about oral propaganda, and gradually developed into written propaganda after Tang Dynasty.  They often distributed prefabricated promotional items in street markets and public places, called "anonymous posts" at the time.

    At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the scale of the peasant uprising army's propaganda by exposing posts was further expanded.  There are written and printed ones in the Jietie, similar to leaflets.  Everywhere the insurgent army went, they immediately publicized policies such as "exemption from taxes" and "equalization of land" with posters, and publicized strict military discipline.  Supporting the uprising army and participating in the uprising team played an important role.  The personnel sent by the rebel army to the enemy's rear also often used postings to shake and disintegrate the enemy army, which had a great spiritual persecution effect on the enemy.  These propaganda materials played a similar role to newspapers at the time.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
