Chapter 43: The Dissolute Lady (15) The Ice Sea Holds the Big Head...
A few days later, Liu Binghai called the mayor and took Datou to the street where the chicken feast was held. In addition to Datou, he also brought with him containers filled with liquid and a can of paint.
People coming and going were all staring at the chicken in her arms, wondering what kind of funeral this woman was going to have.
But with the mayor around, the villagers were not so angry. They believed that nothing was more important than an official. Seeing the mayor's fierce face, no one dared to say a word, for fear of being implicated.
Occasionally there were a few people whispering furtively in the crowd, but the mayor glared at them and they dared not say a word.
Liu Binghai was a straightforward person, always speaking his mind. "The chicken feast a few days ago caused quite a stir. Rumor has it that those chickens that like to peck people's butts are the King of Hell's minions, sent here to punish bad people. Whoever gets pecked is considered a bad person. This rule has caused unrest in our entire town. It's really difficult for the mayor to break this rule, but whether it's the King of Hell's minions or the sorcery of someone with evil intentions is hard to say."
Liu Binghai paused, then continued, "A few days ago, I tied up a large, colorful rooster. You all saw it. It's said that the rooster pecked the buttocks of over twenty young girls, all of whom were stunning beauties. Because the colorful rooster is said to be a soldier of the King of Hell, and because those who are pecked are considered evil, those girls have been branded as unfaithful and unwomanly. Now, some girls are being kept at home with mental disorders."
Liu Binghai held his big head and chuckled calmly. "I heard that those girls were all picked up by some fancy men. They're really eager to recruit talented people. But I'm also curious about how that chicken was so obedient. It pecked at the pretty girl as soon as it spotted her. Could it be that the chicken can recognize people too?"
With the mayor present, the people below dared not say a word and just listened to her.
"Recently, I heard about something that, when mixed and applied to the body, can make a chicken extremely aroused. Today, I brought a chicken here to test it out with everyone."
The people below looked at each other and the crowd was buzzing.
Liu Binghai put the big head on the ground, took a look at it, then grabbed the little mole who was watching the fun, took out the liquid in the container and smeared it on the mole. When the big head saw it, it rubbed it and flapped its wings to peck at it. No one could stop it. The little mole ran around everywhere, howling.
Liu Binghai saw a sturdier man in the crowd, and took advantage of the man's unpreparedness to smear the liquid on him. Then, Big Head flew over with his neck stiffened, like a spirit of drama.
Not satisfied with the pecking, she took another big bite on the man's butt.
The man screamed in pain, "Why did you choose me!"
Liu Binghai said calmly, "Sorry, you look a little out of shape, please don't hold it in your mouth."
The man narrowed his eyes in pain.
There was a lot of discussion all around, and Big Head was running around proudly and anxiously, as if saying: What happened, what on earth happened.
Liu Binghai looked at everyone and put the container containing the "special liquid" back into her sleeve pocket. She didn't care whether the liquid was realistic or not, as long as it could achieve the result she wanted.
People on the street were whispering to each other.
Many people began to prefer the drifting ice sea.
After all, chickens can't act or lie.
Liu Binghai calmed himself down and continued, "Using such despicable means to harm others and benefit oneself is truly despicable. How many people have been discredited and how many girls have lost their innocence. Besides, is this colorful chicken really a colorful chicken?"
The old rule says that only colorful chickens are the King of Hell's minions.
Someone said, "What do you mean by that?"
Liu Binghai laughed twice, "You still remember the snow chicken that I roasted into white. It used to be a colorful chicken."
No one said anything, waiting for her next words.
Ryuhyo Kaido: "Colored chickens can turn snow-white, so can ordinary chickens also turn colorful?"
While everyone was still stunned, it took a look at the innocent Big Head, picked him up, opened the paint in the can, and started brushing Big Head's chicken feathers.
Strands and pieces, red and green, the smell of paint floated before Big Head's eyes.
After a while, Big Head turned into a colorful chicken.
Cai's expression is lively and vivid.
Even more colorful than the previous one.
Liu Binghai kicked the paint lid to her feet and lowered the big head for everyone to see. She waited for a while, and when she saw that everyone was standing there staring at her in shock, she said, "So, this colorful chicken is the legend of the King of Hell's little soldier. I really don't know if it's true or not."
After she finished speaking, she glanced back at the mayor, then at the villagers in front of her. "I roasted that snow chicken for seven days, and it was already hard to wash off. If I roast this chicken for a few more days, I'm sure it will be a truly colorful rooster that's hard to wash off."
I originally killed the snow chicken just because I didn't want it to be instigated by others to cause trouble again. The white chicken pecking at people's butts cannot make their bad reputation effective, but I didn't expect to have this idea of counterattack.
Everyone was stunned by the performance and looked at each other for a while, not knowing what to say.
"I know you all don't want to see me anymore, but it doesn't matter. From now on, the hustle and bustle of the King of Hell's soldiers pecking people will surely be over, and everyone can rest easier."
After saying this, Liu Binghai sighed and continued, "I have been doing depressing things for so long, I know that no matter what ghosts and monsters there are, they are all in my own heart. If everyone does good things, the ghosts will naturally not come to you, but just don't let those villains pretending to be ghosts come to you. Now, after this incident, I also want to take a good rest and think about my future. The depressing things of each family, those that can be solved can be solved by themselves, and those that can't be solved, please come to me again in a few days."
After this incident, she really needs to have a good rest.
The villagers below were stunned when they heard this. They wanted to say something to each other, but they couldn't say anything. They usually scolded others for being depressing, but what could they say now?
Liu Binghai picked up the changed Big Head and said to the mayor, "Mayor, please talk to them. I'm leaving now."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Little Mole chased her for a long way. When he looked back, the villagers were still standing there looking at them.
Little Mole pressed on, "Sister, are you really going to change your career?"
Liu Binghai: "What will I eat if I change my career?"
Little Mole was puzzled: "Then you..."
Liu Binghai said calmly, "They've been scolding me for so long, I'll just take a break and let them experience what it's like to have no one take on bad things."
After saying that, he added, "Besides, I really need to take a break."
Or maybe, I should really listen to Brother He and find a good man to marry.
How can I get married if I keep having such bad luck?
Big Head seemed to feel her heart waves, and suddenly trembled, his whole body resisting.
Little Mole asked again, "Sister, was that colorful chicken really painted?"
"That's not important."
Little Mole… “Is the tea shop owner the mastermind?”
Liu Binghai: "It doesn't matter. I'm not investigating a case. I just want the result."
Little Mole, "What is the result?"
Liu Binghai looked back at him and said word by word, "The result is that the legend has been broken, the bottom line has been broken, and the trick is useless."
Little Mole thought about it for a long time.
Liu Binghai added: "As a person, you must know your purpose and not waste your time on useless things, okay?"
After thinking for a moment, he looked at the little mole again and said something with a hint of meaning, "The same goes for you. If you have achieved your goal, don't waste any more time."
The little mole paused for a moment, thought about it, and was somewhat awed.
In the past, the Zhang family's steward arranged for him to stay with his sister, track her whereabouts, and pretended to persuade her to meet with Brother Zhan, but she remained unmoved.
Now that he has made some money and has confirmed that she has never had an affair with Brother Zhan, it is time for him to draw a clear line with the Zhang family.
"Sister, you... are so awesome." said Xiao Zhi.
Is that so? It’s just average, Liu Binghai thought.
Little Mole, "Sometimes, I feel like you don't even look like a woman."
I don’t want to either, mainly because I can’t get married.
Liu Binghai turned around and looked at him carefully.
"Sister, if nothing else, why don't you just listen to Brother He and find a good man to marry? I hope you'll be happy."
Liu Binghai chuckled twice, "That's fine."
Big Head suddenly shook.
Xiao Zhi was silent for a moment, then raised his head and suddenly said, "But sister, I like you too."
This sudden confession made Datou instantly confused.
It's not a mess that can be solved by shaking it off.
How come so many competitors suddenly appeared?
He wants to cultivate himself into a human being!
…
After returning to the He family, Liu Binghai gave Datou a bath. It took a lot of effort to wash off the paint on its body.
Little Mole watched from the side and helped her get water.
Big Head was soaking in the basin, and Liu Binghai's warm fingers passed through its fleshy body, carefully caressing every inch of its flesh.
Datou was very intoxicated and his whole body was enjoying it.
It’s so happy to soak in the hot water with my loved one by my side.
Those soft and delicate fingers make it so comfortable to take a bath.
Big Head was so happy that he wanted to crow.
It has never crowed since it came into this life. If it suddenly crows for the first time while taking a bath, will it scare the chickens away?
Liu Binghai carefully scrubbed every strand of chicken feathers for Datou. Datou's feet stood in the basin, and his body felt warm, soft and comfortable.
But with enemy troops nearby, soldiers can be killed but not humiliated.
It opened its eyes wide and looked at the little ruffian who had just confessed his love to it.
Is he worthy?
As expected, the ice sea said to the little mole, "You are too small. We are not suitable for each other."
Big Head relaxed his gaze and gave Little Mole a look of arrogance.
You're overestimating yourself, if I weren't a chicken now...
Humph.
The big-headed chicken claw climbed onto the back of the hand that was rubbing it in the drift ice sea.
I rub it left and right, but I really want to touch it.
Liu Binghai slapped him.
Big Head pursed his lips in grievance.
I can't even touch it, so stingy.
I just helped her with work, and she said we could have a relationship after work.
I want to go back to your arms and hug you.
The big-headed chicken's feet soaked in the water in disappointment, and could only stand up the chicken feathers on its body. The chicken feathers shook, giving off a coquettish feeling. It looked at the drifting ice sea, but she was too lazy to look at it, and just brushed the chicken feathers over and over again.
Xiao Mole watched from the side, thought for a long time, and said to Liu Binghai, "But I am very mature, sister."
Liu Binghai, "What's the use? I don't like children."
That’s right… that’s how I should reject him. Big Head thought to himself, and Ji Guanzi nodded.
Little Mole: "I know that too...so..."
Hmm? Liu Binghai looked up at him, and he suddenly felt that this sister who usually looked as cold as ice had such tenderness in her eyes, and there was a hint of the innocence and brilliance of a little girl in her eyes.
Such a good sister should have someone to protect her.
He said, "So, you should listen to Brother He and find a good family you like and marry."
"Oh?" Liu Binghai's eyebrows moved.
"Sister, I know you can do a lot of things on your own. I like you, but I also hope you are happy. In fact, I think Brother He is also very good. If you don't like him, then find another good man."
Liu Binghai smiled after hearing this and said, "Why, you won't take me to meet your brother Zhan?"
Xiao Mole lowered his head and said silently, "He is not worthy of you, sister. You are the most perfect person in the world."
Oh, I don’t deserve this praise.
"So, go find a good man, sister." Xiaozhi said sincerely, changing his usual beggar-like temperament.
The big head suddenly flapped in the water, and its small wings trembled a few times. Then, perhaps afraid of the temper of the icy sea, it quietly put away its edge and looked at her blankly.
The drifting ice sea was scrubbing the chicken feathers carefully.
Big Head's body was round and heavy to hold. The colorful paint was finally washed off. Liu Binghai wrapped a sheet around Big Head, picked him up, and put him in his arms to wipe it carefully.
Big Head was intoxicated in the arms of the drifting ice sea, with his elegant chicken claws tightly pressed against her belly.
Liu Binghai wiped his body clean, thought for a moment, and said to Xiao Mole, "Yes, we can arrange a blind date for them."
Big Head's eyes moved.
Liu Binghai held the big head and looked hard.
At the same time, Zhang's Tea House also heard about the Drifting Ice Sea.
Especially that day, when Liu Binghai said "Mr. Zhang" in the street, he really expressed all the joys and sorrows. These joys and sorrows will eventually come to an end, perhaps after chatting and laughing, or perhaps in a moment of thought.
The housekeeper brewed a cup of tea for Zhang Ruochen. It was freshly picked from the tea house, and the aroma wafting from the tea leaves was refreshing.
However, the housekeeper was not in a good mood. He knew what the woman had said on the street that day. The town was small and word spread quickly. She said this and that, all of which made the owner feel upset.
He also knew what the owner of the manor was thinking. The owner of the manor must have thought that if he let the woman go, she would be unable to make a living after some time and would have to come back to confess her crime. The owner of the manor must have also thought that the woman would rather do those unlucky things to make a living than come back to him to make a living. She must have resentful of him in her heart.
But he knew that the owner of the manor was also feeling aggrieved. It was clearly the woman who made the mistake first, so why couldn't he get angry and punish her?
He originally thought that the owner of the manor really hated that woman, and that she was really promiscuous, but seeing the owner so depressed day by day, and seeing him looking at the high wall building alone in the yard for countless nights, he knew he was wrong. That wall building was the wall building where the woman pushed her wheelchair and left that day, and where she left her last sight.
That might be her last bit of affection for this teahouse.
He only left behind his back and never came back. He was so decisive.
In addition, the news that Xiao Zhi brought back today was that after she left, she refused to meet with that Zhan man even at all costs. This really made the old housekeeper confused. Could it be that she left the teahouse not to meet with that Zhan man? Could it be that there was some misunderstanding here?
So he asked Xiao Zhi to follow him all the time, until one day, Xiao Zhi heard the maid tell the woman's past in person at the He family.
Only then did he know why she refused to get pregnant, only then did he know how dissatisfied and intolerable she felt about the owner of the manor taking a concubine, and only then did he know how much childish revenge and anger she hid in her deliberate correspondence with that Zhan.
But this woman is stupid. No matter how much the owner of the manor loves her, this is the life of an ordinary man after all. How can he use such a messy method to resolve the right and wrong in life?
He is old and can't tell who is right or wrong.
But watching the owner of the manor become so depressed day by day is not a solution after all.
The housekeeper said to Zhang Ruochen, "Master..."
Zhang Ruochen took a sip of tea and looked up at him. The two seemed to understand each other tacitly, both with gloomy faces. The day was particularly gloomy, and his mood was also particularly gloomy. When it is gloomy, it feels like there is a spring flowing in his heart. It flows and flows, and then it stops, everything stops, and that's it.
The butler called out "Master of the Manor" again.
Zhang Ruochen looked at him in silence.
The housekeeper said, "Master, I shouldn't have advised you, but the matter between you and the eldest lady... I'm afraid it's all a misunderstanding. She broke up with you in the street that day, and she is indeed resentful. But think about it, it's all a grudge in her heart. Besides..."
The housekeeper thought for a long time, turning over and over, "Besides, Xiao Zhi sent a letter, and she and that Zhan have indeed never met."
Zhang Ruochen said nothing and poured a cup of tea for the housekeeper. The fragrance of the tea drifted into his lungs and reached his heart. He remembered that when the woman was still alive, he always poured her a cup of tea like this. She liked the most primitive wild tea picked from the back mountain, saying that the tea had a temperament like her, warm and wild.
The housekeeper was very flustered. How could he accept such courtesy from the owner? He hurriedly stood up to offer tea to the owner, but was stopped by Zhang Ruochen.
The housekeeper sat back in his seat, looked at the owner's expression, and said cautiously, "That woman is indeed cruel, indeed cruel..."
That woman was indeed cruel and heartless. Even he couldn't help but feel sorry for the owner of the manor. However, when he thought about the complicated past, it was not entirely the woman's fault. But looking at the owner of the manor in his current state, he couldn't help feeling sad.
"But no matter how cruel she is, there must be a reason. Master, she hasn't done anything to offend you. Just think about it and let it go."
Zhang Ruochen paused and said, "How could I argue with her?"
As he spoke, his heart was heavy.
The housekeeper said, "Yes, but if we allow this misunderstanding to continue, I'm afraid it will really become a situation where you are you and she is her..."
She would rather do those unlucky things to make a living than come back to admit her mistakes to the owner of the manor, nor would she explain anything. She thought that she must be very disappointed with his decision to take a concubine.
But how could she know that when the owner of the manor drank tea alone every day, he looked so lonely that others would feel distressed.
The housekeeper felt sad, but could not say anything.
"But now, I heard that she pushed all the bad things away. I wonder what the next plan is. Master, what do you think..."
The housekeeper was halfway through his words when he looked at Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen put down his teacup, paused for a moment, and said calmly, "She had corresponded with me first, so she has no grievance against me. Now, Yan'er and I have finally achieved a happy ending. I have a wife and a child... It can be considered a happy ending."
After saying this, his eyes turned red for a moment, he lowered his head, and the teacup in his hand felt wet.
Since she has made up her mind, why should he worry about her anymore?
I just hope she remarries soon.
Zhang Ruochen said this in his heart, and then went back to the courtyard to look at the moon. The moon was much more stable than her feelings. It would not lose its temper for no reason, nor would it run away secretly. If the weather changed, it would only run away for a day and then come back. Unlike that woman, she would disappear as soon as she ran away.
