Speaking this Ximen Qing is like a big tree, how many people are sheltered by him. How many people depend on his big tree to survive on their own. Whether it is the women around him, or the men rely on this Ximen Qing. They formed a small world by the support of the big tree of Ximen Qing.
In this world, they do everything they can to please Ximen Qing, according to the words in the book, "sucking the carbuncle", and bending their knees to the extreme.
And when Ximen Qing died, this tree fell, the world collapsed, how many people and things changed in an instant, the world was like turning over one by one, I really don't know whether it was fake before or now it is fake.
This is exactly what it is: once the horse dies and the gold is exhausted, the relatives are like strangers.
Today we list the sentient beings of the people around Ximen Qing after his death:
Let's start with the wives and concubines
Ximen just swallowed, Wu Yueniang had a stomachache to give birth, Yulou immediately arranged for someone to ask the midwife Cai Da Niang, asked Li Jiao'er to take care of Yue Niang first. Who would have thought that at this critical time, Li Jiao'er actually took advantage of Yue Niang's coma, stole the belongings in her box, and hid them in her room. This Li Jiao'er usually has no habit of petty theft, it may be that ximen Qing is dead, the patron is gone, and it is a handful to catch a handful.
After giving birth to a child, Yue Niang found that the box was opened and the silver was missing, so she scolded the next person and said, "Thief stinks meat, I fainted, and you fainted!" The box is open and you don't lock it. Yu Lou heard these words and thought that Yue Niang doubted herself, so she got angry and walked out and said to Jin Lian, "It turns out that the eldest sister is like that!" The first day of the death of the man, he guarded against people coming. "Someone as kind as Meng Yulou usually can say such a thing after Ximen Qing's death."
Everything quietly changed in the few hours after Ximen Qing's death, not only these wives and concubines around Ximen Qing, but also the subordinates in Ximen Mansion and the brothers who had been rolling around with him all day.
It is said that the old lady Cai who delivered the baby for the moon lady, after the delivery, the moon lady asked someone to give her three or two rewards of silver. If in the past, Old Lady Cai must have said a lot of kind words, but this time it was different, and she felt that she gave less, saying: "How much has the brother rewarded me, and how much convenience has it been with me." Hugh said that the brother was born and raised by the eldest bride. Yue Niang also had to explain: "Compared to the time when there was a boss, now there is no father, will be collected, to be washed three times, and then with you one or two." As a result, Old Lady Cai still did not agree, until she took a piece of clothing, she was not willing to give up, if Ximen Qing was still alive, this mother-in-law would certainly not dare to make such a mistake.
Speaking of Ximen Qing's ten brothers, after his death, he not only shared the silver earned by Ximen Qing before his death, but also immediately found a new master and continued to live a life of help, and Ximen Qing's death seemed to be a very common thing for them.
These gangs usually beat Ximen's whiskers, flattered, and sacrificed their wives and children, and after Simon's death, they gathered together again, and the condolences were false, and it was true that they ate and drank through Ximen's funeral, and cheated on their belongings.
The seven brothers only gathered seven pieces of silver to pay tribute to Ximen Qing, the great official who had "borrowed him, made him, and chewed on him" with whom they had gotten along. At the scene of the funeral, the brothers ate and took it, not only earning back the silver of the money, but also earning a few days of burnt cake money.
I think that Ximen Qing took good care of these brothers, and everyone was more or less blessed by him. Like buying a house at home in the usual season, Ximen Qing did not say that he took out dozens of taels of silver, and Count Ying was even more so, not to mention the cost of eating and drinking in the hands of Ximen Qing, even if his wife gave birth to a child, Ximen Qing gave him fifty taels of silver in vain, but the result was a silver sacrifice for each of the brothers.
Ximen knows underground, I don't know what mood it is, will he regret making friends with such a group of "brothers".
Ximen Qing may not have imagined that his brother-in-law would do this to him after his death.
Blame only him, meet people unladylike, and make friends with such a bunch of scum as brothers.
A group of people like Count Ying, who made a living by helping others, bragged and amused people like Simon was the only way for them to support their families. They lower themselves and please others, not only to eat in a mixed meal, so that the wives and children of the family can eat enough. They have no profound purpose, they do not understand any heroic righteousness, their purpose is very real, that is, to produce a visible effect through their own actions, if there is no such effect, they will not waste their efforts, since the object of praise does not exist, then why do they still do their own sentimentality, loyalty to an empty soul?
In this case the author wrote eight verses:
There are few monks living in the temple, and the bridge collapses.
Poor slaves are lazy, and officials are full of officials and people.
Shallow fish are difficult to live, and forest birds do not roost.
The world looks cold and warm, and the face of the people is high and low.
The author uses these eight poems to exhaust the cold of the world and the cold and warm of human feelings.
"The world looks cold and warm, and the face of the people is high and low", this is a reminder to Ximen Qing, but also a reminder to each of us, he reminds us that the cold in the world is a normal, we must cherish those around you who really love you, because that kind of love is a scarce product.
