After Minglan Taolin's emotional outburst towards Cao Jinxiu, Mrs. Sheng not only asked her to kneel, but also slapped her hand, but despite this, she did not shed a tear, nor did she shed a single tear.
Old Lady Sheng had a new idea after learning of Cao Jinxiu's existence, but considering that the He family did not take concubines all her life and the advantage of the family's simple population, she decided to observe her future performance for the time being. Therefore, she chose a default approach, and as long as He Hongwen continued to maintain his attitude, their marriage contract would still be considered valid.
He Hongwen and Cao Jinxiu went on a public date in the peach grove not far from the Sheng family, but before she returned to her yard, she learned of the situation and did not hesitate to end their lives directly.
He Hongwen was gently hugging Cao Jingxiu, trying to comfort her. Compared to her bright beauty, Cao Jinxiu is obviously at a disadvantage. Her thin figure is enough to attract the attention of men, not to mention that she is a childhood sweetheart who is strategically clever and always wants to retreat?
Maybe He Hongwen really lost his direction, and he firmly believed that Minglan could only be his wife, and the help of Cousin Cao, who was born in poverty, was not too much, but Minglan suddenly appeared to make everything confusing. However, He Hongwen did not realize that due to his impulsiveness, he could lose the woman he loved so much, and at the same time, he could also destroy a woman's innocent yearning for love.
Minglan has a deep affection for He Hongwen, which is closely related to his future.
From a strict point of view, He Hongwen is the first time she really meets a foreign man, and their grandmother is a very close best friend. On the boat back to Youyang, He Hongwen directly put the two of them to play together.
He Hongwen is a very sincere and kind person, even if he clearly knows that she is lying, he will make a stupid nod very sincerely, and show a high degree of persuasion to all her false excuses. In this world, she is the most conscientious woman, and even though she has many lies, she insists that she truly loves him. When faced with such noble people, even she felt that she didn't dare to pretend anymore, so she could only treat them sincerely.
If you want to say that she is pretending to be confused, she must be a master, even for Qi Heng, who has always been good to her, she always does this. In this era, many people will be deceived by others, but she can show her true power to the fullest, which makes many people envious. It is this sincere emotion that makes He Hongwen unique.
On the boat, He Hongwen specially boiled the medicinal juice for her, because she vomited it all the way. Initially, she also cooperated with the drink, but in the process of drinking, she secretly poured it out.
Once, she was caught red-handed by He Hongwen, but he didn't make any accusations, but the next day he deliberately cooked two large bowls of medicinal juice and watched her drink it in person before he was willing to leave.
He Hongwen is very concerned about her eating Xi. When they first met, she was tasting plums to satisfy her appetite, but He Hongwen stopped her, believing that eating too many plums might damage her spleen and stomach, and from then on, He Hongwen thought she should be responsible for patrolling all kinds of delicious foods.
When my eyes fell on the ink-stained calligraphy rice paper on the bookcase, I naturally didn't ask whyWhen she saw the shelves cluttered with idle books on medicine, astrology, astronomy, and geography, she lied that it was her brother's book, but only smiled and said, "Let your brother know more."
Of the two, one of them is cheerful and lively, and the other is reserved and steady, but this does not affect the pleasant relationship between them. The degree of love between the two personalities makes many people feel ashamed of themselves. At the age of two young people who have no guesses, I believe that anyone will be moved by those who are both knowledgeable and talented, but do not dislike themselves. The same goes for her parents. Not to mention, despite the fact that she was born in Zhongding's family, she has never been so uninhibited in chatting with others.
More crucially, He Hongwen has been staunchly opposed to concubinage since his grandfather's generation. The He family was dominated by his grandmother, and his mother was bedridden due to illness and had a fairly gentle personality, which was undoubtedly a fatal attraction for many women.
Yang Jiang once expressed that true love is a romantic feeling that cannot be placed, and true love is like a long stream of companionship, hugging tightly will make you feel peaceful, and being accompanied by it will make people feel warm. It's that simple to like someone. The time in life is long, moderate likes and preferences are the most comfortable, you don't need to be too satisfied, as long as I like it is enough, if I am not so good, you don't have to mind.
Qi Heng's feelings for Liang Han seem to be out of reach, and Liang Han, as a not very reliable person, is very satisfied with He Hongwen, a person who is willing to favor himself, does not accept concubines, and can understand and tolerate himself. This is not only the satisfaction of her heart, but also the fulfillment of her long-cherished desire to live a stable life.
The love between them is pursued by both parties, because she has an in-depth understanding of He Hongwen, and He Hongwen is also heartbroken by her predicament.
Although He Hongwen is the only male member of the family, he also bears all kinds of pressure from his mother. He once publicly stated: "My mother hoped that I could pass the imperial examination and enter the officialdom, but unfortunately, I was not very good, I just liked to play with all kinds of herbs and acupuncture".
Although many people may say that as long as you work hard, the imperial examination is the right path, only she will not hesitate to say: "Brother He is thin on himself." Reading the book of sages and sages is only to assist the Ming Jun at the top, and to honor the ancestors and their descendants at the bottom, but Wanliu returns to the sect, and practicing medicine to help the world can also benefit the people and glorify the lintel.
My brother and grandmother's father were so noble in their medical skills and ethics back then. When he was a teenager, he personally went to the epidemic area to save people and save the woes, and when he was old, he was in charge of the Tai Hospital Order and issued a medical codex order. The world admires him immensely!”
In the book "The Language of Floating Creatures", there is such a sentence: If there is a person around you who is good to you, then you will be immortal in an instant;If you don't have a good friend around you, it will disappear in an instant. Being able to stay deep in people's hearts and never forget it, and passing away also means growth.
In a hierarchical feudal society, if a person does not stand out, it is difficult to compare with the powerful even a skilled healer or a wise man who is committed to educating and nurturing talents. Therefore, He Hongwen was full of gratitude to Minglan for his understanding and consideration. In that era of blind marriage and dumb marriage, it was no longer easy to meet someone who knew how to read and reason, and it was even more difficult to meet a love that was willing to pursue both ways.
Taolin's quarrel marks the final explosion of her dissatisfaction with love.
In that vague branch, Minglan expressed contempt for this ill-fated love of mandarin ducks, she really couldn't bear it anymore, so she had to stand up decisively for herself and her grandmother.
As expected, women who were able to pre-arrange appointments for an atmospheric place like Taolin had an impeccable strategy and means, as was the case with Cho Jin-so.
Therefore, she did not hesitate to ask: "Miss Cao, have you ever seen those kind people who are willing to donate all their property to beggars?""I'm a very ordinary woman, and I don't like to give all my savings to others. Then, he said to He Hongwen word for word: "For a woman, her husband is all she has, which woman would give her husband to the woman next to her?!."”
Yang Jiang once pointed out that in this world, pure happiness does not exist, because happiness is often accompanied by various troubles and worries, and the human world cannot be eternal.
I didn't expect her and He Hongwen to be so compatible, the two could spend the rest of their lives happily by their respective grandmothers, but I didn't expect that in ancient times, she also had the ability to walk hand in hand to the gray hair.
Just as He Hongwen repeatedly praised her for being a good person, he decided to remove Minglan from Minglan from the list of alternative husbands when he hesitated to push Cao Jinxiu away, and when he couldn't let go of his aunt's whole family of vampires.
A person's inadequacy is similar to a monkey's tail. When the monkey squats on the ground, his tail is not visible, but when he climbs the tree, the back of the tail becomes the object of everyone's admiration. However, this characteristic of red buttocks and long tails is not a new symbol, as it represents an ascension to status.
A person's shortcomings, like a monkey's tail, can make people feel uncomfortable. Loyal and honest people often have malicious intent, like the grit in a meal or the incompletely cleaned spines in the fillet of bonefish, which can cause an unexpected injury.
He Hongwen's strengths are obvious, but his weaknesses are also sharp. It is both fortunate and unfortunate to meet such a person, because one cannot live solely on one's merits, nor can one simply criticize one's mistakes.
In the original work, Minglan once said something like this to her childhood sweetheart:
I am an ordinary person who always dreams of a good time and a smooth life;But wouldn't it be a joke for my husband to tell stories about pomegranate flowers, lotus flowers, lanterns, and rabbit lamps when he was a child, while I was respecting my elders, educating my children, and managing the household?Am I nothing, just an ornament?”
She sincerely chose to let go, otherwise she would not have ignored the teachings of the past ten years and bluntly expressed her doubts. When she gently wiped the wetness off her face with her sleeve, she said goodbye to He Hongwen in her heart.
Yang Jiang expressed this point of view: how can people who are really invested in their hearts easily forget;And how can people who really move people's hearts easily let go, even if there is no face-to-face communication and verbal communication, there is always a stable position in the heart, quietly guarding someone. Some people, just stay between the lips and teeth, hidden in the long river of time, they have a special companionship, although not around, but hidden deep in the bottom of the heart, even if they see it will be missed.
Such a sunny, affectionate, and trustworthy man, once you are attracted to him, you will be deeply attracted to him. Maybe you are just the right person, both ordinary and not mediocre, full of enthusiasm but not impetuous, not scrambling, not confused, just right mentality, just right life, live up to yourself, live up to life, live up to time, this is the real her.
As she said to her grandmother, "In a person's life, the road is always full of twists and turns and difficulties, and we can't give up easily just because we see potholes." I'll look at it, fill it with mud and sand, lay it with stones, and maybe walk over it and find a way to my destination. But I must not easily turn down someone I know because something unsatisfactory happens!”
Romain Rolland once stated that human life is like a never-ending, ruthless battle, and anyone who wants to be truly worthy of being called a human must constantly fight against an invisible enemy.
In this battlefield, there is a force called "instinct", and this "instinct" is often expressed in various desires, which often lead a person to sin. In your instincts, those deadly energies, impulsive desires, vague thoughts, and thoughts that lead you to depravity and self-destruction are enemies of this type.
Since He Hongwen is like a dull knife that wears out slowly, let the person who matches him gradually hone it, and she can also start the journey of finding a spouse again in the worst case.
In a person's life, whether it is a sunny avenue or a lonely bridge, it is an unusually long journey;Whether it is in the bustling city or the remote mountain village, it is a tortuous and rugged road.
Whether it's the deep mountain lakes on both sides of the road or the flat slopes, it's very suitable for living;Whether it is a mountain valley or a desert Gobi. There are both spring rain with apricot blossoms in full bloom and autumn breeze from Saibei;There are mountains and clear sunshineThere are thousands of purples and thousands of reds, and there are also grass and trees.
Some people find their way in confusion, while others find new life in their predicament. Life is a long journey, and along the way, you will encounter all kinds of people and things. The road is long, the time is long, the shadows are numerous, and the memories are heavy, so cherish the present.
When we can still survive in this world and look back on the past, aren't those sorrows, joys, and pains the most memorable moments in life?
