I'm writing novels in Liaozhai

"Master!"

As soon as he entered, a maid came forward to greet him.

"Well, Tweety, hurry up and make tea, and prepare some melons and fruits when we're done."

"Yes!"

Tweety responded, and gave a blessing to Gu Ming and the two before turning around and leaving.

After a while, tea was served first.

Soon, Tweety and another maid brought the peeled fruits, peanuts and melon seeds to the table.

"Tweety, tell the kitchen to prepare some side dishes, and tell me that my young master is going to entertain two distinguished guests."

"Yes, sir."

After the maid left, the three of them began to drink flowers, eat melon seeds, and chat, as if they hated seeing each other later.

As the saying goes, people are divided into groups, and things of a feather flock together.

Like-minded people naturally have endless topics to talk about.

Among the topics among scholars, the most popular topics are naturally poems and songs, and romance.

While chatting happily, a 27-year-old woman walked in with her maid in small steps.

Wearing a lavender long dress, with cloudy temples on her arms, her skin is white and beautiful, with ethereal charm.

Before the person arrived, there was a ray of dark fragrance that came with the wind first.

"Little girl, why are you here?"

Ma Yun immediately got up and gave a salute, and asked subconsciously.

This girl is Ma Yun's father's concubine, nicknamed Die'er.

"Xiaoniang heard that you have a distinguished guest, so she came here to say hello."

"Meet Mrs."

Xu Jiaying and Gu Ming got up and greeted each other.

"You two young masters don't need to be too polite!"

Butterfly returned a salute.

"Hehe, my lady has a heart, thank you, my lady!"

Ma Yun happily thanked him.

"You child, you are still so polite to my little mother"

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Die Er bid farewell and left, leaving only a lingering fragrance in the courtyard.

Die'er had already gone away, but Gu Ming's gaze was still on the direction of the courtyard door, looking thoughtful.

Seeing this, Ma Yun couldn't help but frown.

Although people have been very romantic since ancient times, Die'er is her little mother!

"Cough, Xing, drink tea, drink tea!"

Xu Jiaying also found that the atmosphere was a bit off, so he coughed and gave a kind reminder to save everyone from embarrassment.

Now, Gu Ming finally came back to his senses.

First he smiled apologetically, then glanced at Ma Yun and explained: "Brother Yun, don't get me wrong, I just feel that something is wrong with your little mother."

"Huh? What happened to her?"

Ma Yun was stunned for a moment, and asked subconsciously.

Gu Ming hesitated for a moment, looked around, saw the maids were standing outside the courtyard gate, then lowered his voice and said: "According to my judgment, she should not be human, to be precise, not human!"

"Snapped"

Xu Jiaying was holding the tea bowl, but his hand trembled, and the tea bowl fell to the ground.

The maid standing outside the courtyard heard the voice and hurried in

"Tweety, tidy up and make another bowl of tea."

"Yes, sir."

Not long after, Tweety made a new bowl of tea and brought it over.

"Okay, it's none of your business here, go outside and wait."

As soon as the maid left, Ma Yun glanced at Gu Ming and asked suspiciously: "Brother Gu, why did you say that? I have been married for more than ten years, and I have never found anything wrong with her. How could she not be human?"

"Ten years?"

Gu Ming muttered to himself.

He added: "However, I'm [-]% sure that she is definitely not a human being, she should be a demon transformed into a human being!"

"This star, are you coughing, what kind of illusion did you have?"

Xu Jiaying coughed dryly and asked.

"Impossible, to tell you the truth, I have learned some spells, and I have personally succumbed to ghosts and demons when I was in Guobei County, and I have never lost sight of them.

Although your little mother has already transformed, there is still a trace of evil spirit faintly leaking out.

Does she have a natural floral fragrance all year round instead of powder fragrance? "

"That's true, my lady never uses rouge and gouache."

"Then she might be a flower demon or something"

If it were someone else, Gu Ming explained lazily.

However, Ma Yun and Ma Yun hit it off right away, since they met, they might as well take care of each other.

As the saying goes, seeing is believing, hearing is believing.

As soon as I thought about it, the tea, fruit plate, etc. on the table disappeared instantly.

"This this"

Xu Jiaying and Xu Jiaying were dumbfounded by the sudden delay.

Gu Ming smiled, and with a thought, the things on the table were restored one by one.

Now, Ma Yun no longer doubted it, and hurriedly got up and bowed his hands to salute: "My little brother has offended me before, please forgive me, Brother Gu."

"Brother Yun is being polite. But there is no need to panic about this matter. Since she has been married to your family for more than ten years, she must not be a harmful demon.

But it is still necessary to clarify her identity and purpose, so as not to cause future troubles. "

Ma Yun nodded with a serious face: "Well, please wait a moment, let me discuss with my father."

After a while, he accompanied a man in his forties into the courtyard.

Gu Ming and the two stood up and bowed to each other.

After introducing each other, Ma Zhengshan went up to Gu Ming and cupped his hands: "I can't see that Mr. Gu is actually an expert, Ma is not far away!"

"Master Ma, be polite!"

"Actually, Die Er is not a human being."

"what?"

Hearing his father's words, Ma Yun couldn't help being taken aback.

Dare to love, father already knew?

"It's just that I begged an expert to make a talisman and put it on Die'er, so that it can cover up her aura to the greatest extent, and ordinary people can't see Die'er's details at all.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Gu could see it at a glance, it can be seen that his cultivation must be advanced."

Later, Ma Zhengshan took the initiative to explain the reason.

When he went out to collect the tent with two servants, he discovered a miraculous scene when passing by a remote forest.

A huge black cat is chasing a colorful butterfly about the size of a washbasin.

The butterfly was obviously injured, and a small piece of its wing was missing. It flew obliquely, and it was about to fall into the cat's claws.

Ma Zhengshan felt sympathy for a moment, and desperately grabbed the stone to drive away the black cat.

Unexpectedly, the black cat was so fierce that it rushed over with its teeth and claws.

Fortunately, both men had knives, and they fought back desperately to drive the big black cat away.

But Ma Zhengshan was scratched. It didn't take long for the wound to turn black and fester, and he passed out.

Seeing that he was about to die, a woman appeared in time to rescue him.

Ma Zhengshan was naturally grateful, and thanked him again and again.

Unexpectedly, the woman confessed her identity, saying that she was the butterfly hunted down by the cat demon.

If it wasn't for Ma Zhengshan's help, she might have been swallowed alive by the cat demon

"Later, Die'er committed herself to marry as a concubine in order to repay her kindness. Her identity has always been a secret, except for me and the Taoist, no outsiders know it at all.

I didn't expect that it would be unavoidable to be seen through today. "

When he said this, Ma Zhengshan couldn't help but shook his head and smiled wryly.

"master"

At this time, Die Er's choking sound suddenly came from the gate of the courtyard.

"Dieer, why are you here?"

Ma Zhengshan hurried forward to inquire.

"The concubine has a premonition, so I want to come and explain it."

While speaking, Die Er glanced at Gu Ming with complicated eyes.

"It's okay, I've already made it clear to Mr. Gu that although you are a butterfly demon, but you are kind-hearted and will repay your kindness, Mr. Gu will definitely not hurt you."

Ma Yun also got up and cupped his hands at Gu Ming: "Brother Gu, since the young lady has no intention of hurting my father, and she came here to repay her kindness, I hope that Brother Gu will hold you high and don't embarrass her."

Gu Ming sighed: "Since I have no intention of harming others, I will naturally not make a move. However, if I meet other high-level people, I will not be able to tell.

So I suggest that it is better for Madam to go out less, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. "

Hearing this, Die'er hurriedly stepped forward to give a blessing: "Thank you, my lord, Die'er's instructions will definitely be remembered in my heart."

Ma Zhengshan also heaved a long sigh of relief, and then hurriedly told Ma Yun: "This matter must not be spread outside the public, including your mother must not reveal a word."

"The boy knows."

That night, Ma Zhengshan arranged a sumptuous feast for Gu Ming and his wife.

After drinking to their heart's content, the three of them took advantage of their excitement and returned to the inn.

The next morning, Gu Ming went to get down to business first, found an official surnamed Song, and took out the greeting card that Chen Zibai entrusted to him.

It's easy to handle things with kindness, and quickly completed the qualifications for the provincial examination, and received the admission number and related certificates.

In the afternoon, I went for a walk in the city again, especially around the Gongyuan.

Go until sunset before returning to the inn.

As soon as he arrived at the inn, he was dragged by Ma Yun to drink together, saying that he had invited three friends to get to know each other.

Just drink it, anyway, idle is idle.

It turned out that when they arrived at the place, they found that the place chosen by these guys was not a restaurant, but a painting boat moored by the river.

When it comes to painting boats, the Qinhuai River in the capital is naturally the most famous.

Some people describe that even the water of the Qinhuai River is tainted with scents of fat and powder, which shows how prosperous it is.

Once boarding the painting boat, it is like entering a world of cosmetics.

It corresponds to a couplet: Yingyingyanyanyancuicuihonghong, harmonious everywhere.
