80-year-old Zhang Xian wants to have a cave room with an 18-year-old concubine, Zhang Xian just lifted the hijab, and the girl said, although I marry you, I will never give you children. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xian laughed and said, this is not easy to say.
There are very few people who still have the energy to take concubines at the age of 80 in history. And Zhang Xian, who we are going to talk about today, not only accepted a concubine at the age of 80, but also gave birth to 4 children a few years later.
So, who is this Zhang Xian? He was a famous poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, a mid-jinshi in the eighth year of the Tiansheng, and an official in the imperial court. He is good friends with Ouyang Xiu, Wang Anshi, Su Shi and other writers.
Since ancient times, there have been many literati, and this Zhang Xian is the same. Whether when he was young or old, Zhang Xian's nature of messing around with flowers and grass has never changed.
The young Zhang Xian once fell in love with a little nun, and he often went to chat with the little nun when he had nothing to do.
One day, I happened to be bumped into by the little nun's master. The master was very strict, and she made it clear that Zhang Xian should not come to the little nun again. In order to put an end to the private meeting between the two, the master locked up the little nun and never let her come out again.
However, Zhang Xian took his master's words as a deaf ear. When he misses the little nun, he uses a kite to send messages, and sweet words come easily. Slowly, the little nun was also moved by Zhang Xian's tenderness.
Unexpectedly, the letter between the two was discovered by the master again. In order to cut off their love thread, the master simply locked the little nun in an attic. From then on, the kite could no longer convey the affection of the two.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Xian still did not give up. After racking his brains, he rowed a small boat to the attic where the little nun was, and in the dead of night, he quietly fell in love with the little nun.
It's a pity that the little nun still chose to leave Zhang Xian. Zhang Xian was very sad, and wrote a gentle poem "A Cluster of Flowers", the most famous of which is "Hatred and careful thinking, it is not as good as peach and apricot, and it is better to marry the east wind".
Originally, coveting nuns was a thing that could not be put on the table, but Zhang Xian didn't care about it. So much so that when he was old, he still ignored the worldly situation and took an 18-year-old girl as a concubine.
That day, Zhang Xian had nothing to do, so he went to the street alone. Suddenly, not far away, Zhang Xian saw a bunch of people gathered on the side of the road. Zhang Xian, who loves to join in the fun, was also interested, he squeezed into the crowd and found that it was a father in his 50s who was selling his daughter.
After some inquiry, it turned out that the girl was a hard-working person, and she had a father who was addicted to gambling. Because of the poverty of the family, his mother died of illness early. The father is now unable to pay off his gambling debts, and he takes out his daughter and sells it.
The girl was thin and small, and looked malnourished. The whole person was unkempt, like a beggar, squatting pitifully on the ground, and was talked about.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Xian's pity began to overflow. He looked at the little girl in front of him seriously, and looked like she was fourteen or fifteen years old.
The man looked at Zhang Xian's distracted eyes, and saw that Zhang Xian was dressed extraordinarily, so he asked: "Old man, the little girl is very cheap, only 50 yuan, do you want to take it home?"
Zhang Xian felt sorry for the girl, so he sighed involuntarily and shook his head. As if enraged, the man raised his hand to hit the girl.
"Wait!" Zhang Xian scolded: "This girl, I bought it!"
So, Zhang Xian quickly took out 50 yuan and led the girl home.
After arriving home, Zhang first called someone to take the girl to wash, and asked someone to find a maid's clothes for her to wear. Who knows, after the girl changed her clothes, she turned out to be a slim girl. Zhang Xian looked at the girl's big eyes, and couldn't help but feel a heat wave in his heart.
After that, Zhang Xian, who took pity on the fragrance and cherished the jade, did not let the girl do any heavy work, but kept her by his side and became his personal maid.
In the blink of an eye, 3 years have passed. The girl is 18 years old and looks more and more standard. Zhang Xian looked at her every day, and his heart was already ready to move. Fair lady, gentleman, although the eldest girl is 62 years old, I can't bear the psychology of the old cow wanting to eat tender grass!
One day, Zhang Xian was full of wine and food, and after watching the girl busy around him, he was fascinated for a while. Finally, with the help of wine, he grabbed the girl's hand. The girl was startled and suddenly blushed. Seeing the girl's delicate appearance, Zhang Xian couldn't hold it anymore.
He took the girl and sat on his lap. The girl suddenly panicked, and she said tremblingly, "Master, what are you going to do here?"
Zhang Xian wrapped his arms around the girl and whispered in her ear, "Don't move, I just want to hug you." ”
Zhang Xian is also a decent gentleman, he did what he said, he only hugged the girl that night, and did not do anything out of line. It's just that after Zhang Xian hugged the girl, he became more obsessed with the girl, and his desire to take the girl as a concubine became stronger and stronger.
Finally, according to his own wishes, at the age of 80, he married the girl he loved. On the day of the wedding, the guests filled the entire compound. Friends couldn't help but ridicule Zhang Xian for being old and strong, and the most numb thing here is a poem given by Su Shi: Eighteen brides and eighty langs, with pale hair and red makeup. The mandarin ducks are made into a double night, and a pear flower presses the begonia.
The 80-year-old groom was not angry, and still warmly welcomed everyone to eat and drink.
In the evening, Zhang Xian couldn't wait to find a wife in the room, he uncovered the girl's red hijab, looked at the beautiful girl, and couldn't help asking: "I can be your grandfather at this age, do you regret marrying me?"
The girl made a face aggrieved and said truthfully: "You are my savior, what's the use of regretting? But no matter what, I will not give you a child." ”
Zhang Xian understands the girl's concerns, if the girl does not have children, she can remarry after a hundred years, but if she gives birth to a child, she will be tied to Zhang Xian for the rest of her life.
Therefore, after Zhang Xian listened to the girl's words, he didn't feel at ease, but just replied jokingly: "That's not easy to say!"
Later, Zhang Xian really loved girls, he thought about girls everywhere, there were delicious and fun, and he was always the first to think of girls. Gradually, the girl was also moved by Zhang Xian, and she took care of Zhang Xian's diet and daily life more carefully than before. For the sake of Zhang Xian's health, she no longer allowed Zhang Xian to drink more.
Zhang Xian is also very obedient, sometimes he has a small gathering with friends, and he can't help but drink a few more glasses, but as soon as he saw the girl coming, he took the initiative to put down the wine glass and smiled happily at the girl.
Friends joked, saying that Zhang Xian was really pinched by this little wife, Zhang Xian not only did not refute, but also secretly enjoyed in his heart.
Moreover, the girl who originally swore not to give Mr. Zhang a baby, in the next few years, actually gave Mr. Zhang two sons and two daughters one after another.
Zhang Xian, who is an elderly child, is really happy, holding a few dolls every day, can't put it down, and enjoys the joy of family.
In 1078, Zhang Xian died, and the girl was heartbroken. It didn't take long for the girl to die of depression and follow Zhang Xian.
Zhang Xian has never aged all his life, no matter what status he is or how old he is, he will always keep his original intention and live happily and transparently.
Although the girl was committed to Zhang Xian because of her gratitude, she also gained the warmth of love and family affection from Zhang Xian.
