And Chen's mother back then was a woman who was easily satisfied.She is not demanding, it is enough to be with her sweetheart.She doesn't care about the name or something!
Although she failed to marry into her lover's family, she was not even a concubine.If you say something nice, it's called an outer room, and if you say something ugly, she's just a concubine.But Mother Chen really didn't care about it back then, even if she didn't have a name, she also loved her lover wholeheartedly.Tie the red rope into the sea and cut the green silk from the good!
She personally untied the red thread around her waist, meaning that she was completely cut off from the past, and from then on, she only followed the man wholeheartedly.In this way, Chen's mother followed this man for three years without a name or a point, they chanted poems together, painted together, admired the moon and flowers together, and lived a very comfortable life.Chen's mother thought that she would live like this for the rest of her life, growing old with the person she loves the most, even if she has no name or point, she has no regrets!
But?
The good days were too short, and Chen's mother finally left her lover.According to the song in the play, a Qinglou woman like her lives with her lover outside, and she usually meets a fierce original wife.The original lady helped beat the mandarin ducks, and with a group of maids and servants, she beat up the Qinglou woman and drove her out.Since then, the Qinglou woman and her lover Lao Yan have flown separately, attracting the sighs of countless people and inkmen.But Chen's mother's story is not like this, although the original lady does not allow Chen's mother to enter the door, she does not object to them living outside, out of sight and out of mind.Why did Chen's mother leave that man?
Once, Chen's mother overheard the man's conversation with her personal maid, and it turned out that the two had hooked up a long time ago.The man was also going to sell Chen's mother again, and then give the courtyard to the maid to live in, so that he could be with the maid for a long time.Chen's mother's heart was broken, although Chen's mother's face was still beautiful at this time, but she was old after all, and her Qinglou career had already destroyed her body.Prostitutes can't get pregnant, so ancient prostitutes would take musk for many years, and the musk was cold, which would slowly destroy the woman's fertility.Just ask, who would buy such a woman?
Now she is a maid for others, and she will be disliked, let alone be a concubine, so the only place for Chen's mother to go is the most inferior kiln, and this man is indeed ready to sell Chen's mother into the kiln.What an irony!
When this man loved her, he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to redeem her.If you don't love it, you have to sell her even if it's cheap.Chen's mother finally escaped from the dust, how could she be willing to re-enter the dust?
She wiped away her tears, gathered away all the jewels the man had given her, and escaped alone.Fortunately, this man really loved her back then, and the jewelry he gave her was worth a lot of money.Chen's mother took all these jewels and got a lot of silver, and then she relied on these silver to open a theater garden.Chen's mother has loved watching dramas since she was a child, and she especially loves to watch the West Chamber, and the love story in it is vigorous, which makes her envious.That's why Chen's mother will open a drama garden.But I didn't expect it!
This pear orchard is also so dark, bright on the outside, but rotten on the inside, all kinds of dirty and dirty.Chen's mother has already invested all the money in it, and it is impossible for her to quit halfway, otherwise she will lose all her money and live on the streets.The days can only go on slowly.Straight to the point!
Chen's mother saw that the little girl in front of her was really pitiful, which reminded her of her past, and she was also sold as goods by her parents at such an age.Then half a life drifted away, tasting the warmth and coldness of human affection.Chen's mother sighed and said, "You are also poor people, so let's leave this girl here with me, so that you can have a bite to eat." ”Hearing this, Mother Wu was a little hesitant, because the drama belonged to the lower ninth rate, even worse than a prostitute, and she really didn't want to entrust Chen Yuanyuan here.Mother Chen saw Mother Wu's hesitation, she sighed and said, "I know, you look down on our business, and worry about this girl's future."
Actually, I just looked at you pitifully, and I just wanted to keep this girl here to help cook, and the work was not tiring, and she could eat enough. ”When Wu's mother heard that she just asked Chen Yuanyuan to help cook, she made up her mind, she was a simple person and never doubted the words of others.Mother Wu sighed, "We really have no way out, if the lady can take in this girl, it will also be her creation." ”Then Wu's mother looked at Chen Yuanyuan, she pulled Chen Yuanyuan into her arms, and said with tears, "Girl, my mother is a useless person, I originally said that it was good, I took you to my relatives, but now I left you alone." ”Chen Yuanyuan also burst into tears, she followed Wu's mother's words, and also shouted sadly, "Mother!"
Although Wu's mother is not Chen Yuanyuan's mother, Wu's mother is very good to Chen Yuanyuan, and even came to Suzhou alone for her.In these years, the world is so chaotic.Even if it is a prosperous and rich place in the south of the Yangtze River, it is very dangerous for her to go out alone with a woman's family, and she will even be given her life.This love, this grace!
Chen Yuanyuan had nothing to repay, so he could only shout his mother sincerely.In this way, Chen Yuanyuan stayed in Chen's mother's theater garden to help cook, while Wu's mother returned to Changzhou in the donkey cart that Chen's mother hired for her.Chen Yuanyuan was originally going to change back to her real name, but the mother of this opera garden was also surnamed Chen, so she also followed the surname Chen.And although Chen's mother loves money, her heart is not bad, and she is not harsh to the people below.Unlike Chen Yuanyuan's uncle and aunt, for fear that she would eat more leftovers, even in winter, the hot water was reluctant to be used by Chen Yuanyuan.Now Chen Yuanyuan's life can be said to be much better, she can not only eat two full meals, but also occasionally eat tofu and white rice and white noodles.Chen Yuanyuan's previous life was so bitter that now she has a little bit of gains and losses, for fear that Chen's mother doesn't want her.So after she has eaten enough every day, she will work hard, even if it is not her job, she will rush to do it.The days are still flowing slowly, Chen Yuanyuan is also able to eat enough, his body began to stretch, his face slowly grew, his skin was like snow, and his hair was like ink.Unconsciously, she has grown into a stunning beauty, beautiful as a flower, like a cloud, but anyone who has seen her is not praised.Even Chen's mother had a different mind.Chen's mother has never seen such a beautiful girl as Chen Yuanyuan, just like a jade and gold, if she can carve it a little, she will definitely be able to move Jiangnan.
