Chapter 65: Chapter 53 of the Hui Dynasty
She said it simply, but Liu Fenghan shook his head, and he sighed: "Although parting is hard, the road ahead is even more difficult. I have an uncertain future, how can I afford to delay my wife and young children?" As he spoke, he turned his face, and his beautiful eyes were staring at Zhou Rushui, that gaze was a little strange. He asked her in a voice as low as night, "If it were you, would you be willing to travel with your husband, in the wind and rain, and wander in a foreign land?"
Seeing that Liu Fenghan's bright eyes were as deep as a sea of clouds when he asked this, Zhou Rushui was stunned, and it was rare to think about it seriously.
The chilly autumn wind blew her thin red skirt, Zhou Ru's inky black hair was soft and bright under the shadow of the slanting light, she stood quietly in front of him, her beautiful and immature little face was slightly lowered, frowning for a while, and hooking her fingers for a while. After a while, he raised his face to look at him, his eyes were as bright as stars, and he smiled, and first said: "Although it is unlikely that this thing will fall on me." Speaking of this, she was stunned again at Liu Fenghan's staring, lowered her eyes, thinking about the moon-white figure in her memory, and muttered in a low voice: "But if I really love someone, I would rather die than give up." ”
The night was silent, the sound of the crunch echoed in the night air, the moon was half hidden behind the clouds, but the sky was raining without warning, and the thunder was shining through the dark night, and the raindrops fell in an instant, sprinkled on the eaves, splashing countless droplets, like a little starlight.
Seeing this, Shu Ying hurriedly lowered the curtain and urged the two people in front of the car to drive quickly.
Due to Shuying's urging, the carriage drove into the private house left by Liu Fenghan's mother after a while. Liu Fenghan was kicked out of the house, and after removing the name of "Hui Camel", the Liu family took away his qiē, and did not ask him to take him out of the house even if he did not ask him to take a penny. But Liu's mother's will is in front of her, and no matter how cheeky the Liu family is, they can't take away the private house that has long been changed to the title deed.
Because Liu Fenghan has been doing business abroad all the year round, this house has been shelved.
At this time, there was not half a slave in the house, and it was quiet. After Zhou Rushui and Shu Ying got out of the car, they first hid under the eaves in front of the door to avoid the rain, only waiting for Liu Fenghan and Jiong Qi to park the carriage.
Standing like this, Zhou Rushui didn't look at the house much, but stared at the dripping rain in a daze. She was already a little anxious about the abnormal weather recently, and at this time, she couldn't help muttering with complaint: "Why is it raining again!"
As she was talking, Liu Fenghan had parked the car and walked with Jiong Qi, he was carrying a cloth bag on his shoulder, listening to Zhou Rushui's muttering, and seeing the hidden dissatisfaction on her face, he sneered at her with a smile: "What do you know? Recently, the drought has been too long, and it is also a good thing that there is more rain." ”
Hearing this, Zhou Rushui raised his hand to block the raindrops, and retorted: "That's not necessarily, anything will become a disaster, like locusts in the ground." ”
"Locusts, do you still know locusts?" Hearing this, Liu Fenghan laughed, looking unbelieving.
Seeing him so contemptuous, under the eaves, Zhou Rushui patted the rain on his body, and said with a dissatisfied face: "I know a lot!"
"Then do you know that although Hui She is a poor and remote country, he has a good official?" Liu Fenghan raised his eyebrows, saw Zhou Rushui looking at him with bright eyes, smiled smugly, and continued to say slowly: "Three years ago, there was a new county Yin who took office, and the people almost poured into the suburbs of the city to welcome him, and there were even bands blowing and beating, singing and singing, including these two sentences: 'For the sake of the officials and the people, the disaster star is moved to the lucky star. ’”
During the conversation, everyone also walked slowly towards the house, Zhou Rushui pondered for a while, nodded, and said: "The disaster star moved to the lucky star? ”
"Yes? He thought so to himself. After a few days, he asked the musician, 'When you greeted me the day before yesterday, you sang really well, especially the lyrics that were very appropriate. I don't know, which confidant knows me so well?'" At last week's puzzled gaze, Liu Fenghan lightly basked, he was already a beautiful boy, and when he smiled like this, he was even more handsome.
Shu Ying couldn't help but look a little stunned when he looked at his side face from the side, and was stunned, when he saw Liu Fenghan unexpectedly slap the top of Zhou Rushui's hair, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "That's the music!" 'My lord, that's the old practice in Benzhou, no matter who comes to office, we all sing like this!'"
Saying that, Liu Fenghan took the lead in stepping into the main hall, he threw the cloth bag on his shoulder, turned around, and then raised his chin to look at Zhou Rushui, and sneered with a smile: "Learn more! Compared with the master, you don't know more!"
Hearing this, Zhou Rushui stroked the top of his hair that was hurt, rolled his eyes angrily, stomped his feet, and snorted coquettishly: "You can!"
On the second day of arriving at the tea garden, Zhou Rushui really saw Liu Fenghan's ability.
Now, although Liu Fenghan has been removed from the name of "Hui Camel", he has entered the boundary of Hui County, and the local people are quite polite when they see Liu Fenghan, and they still respect him. Just like the steward of the Liujia Tea House, although he had already received the order from the family, he was still the same as before, respectfully calling Liu Fenghan: "Big boss." ”
This line also made Zhou Rushui really understand what it means to be "a person who is all over Luo Qi, not a silkworm farmer." ”
At that time, the two were already familiar with each other, and Zhou Rushui's prejudice against Liu Fenghan had long since disappeared when they first met. Zhou Rushui is the first time to travel out of the palace, and in such an exchange, there is no conflict of identity and interest. In this way, it is easy to be happy.
In addition, although Liu Fenghan behaves perversely, he is indeed a bright and open person, so he often has nothing to say, and there is no taboo. He can always make Zhou Rushui see a new world and learn some knowledge that he can't learn in the palace. In this way, it is even more interesting! It is a joy to see, and I will never get tired of it for a long time.
In the past few days in Liujia Tea Mountain, Zhou Rushui has been following Liu Fenghan to walk around the mountains, watching him investigate and manage the tea farmers who are busy harvesting tea, and also listen to his mouth full of business experience.
Sometimes, Liu Fenghan would point to the mountains of tea trees, full of copper smell but calculating, "This time, it seems that there will be no harvest after the solar term, and the workers have already been sent back." Unexpectedly, it rained again, and the tea house had a harvest again, so a skilled worker was hired to prune the tea branches. came and went, but I paid my wages twice, and I wasted a lot of money. ”
Sometimes, he will be full of elegance, leading Zhou Rushui to stand on the top of the mountain to blow the mountain breeze, and rest in the tea grove to burn incense and make tea.
He also tends to patiently explain the doorway of tea to Zhou Rushui. For example, he will say as follows: "Autumn tea is also called autumn white dew, the color and taste of the soup are between spring tea and summer tea, the aroma is peaceful, and it is generally inferior to spring tea in terms of nourishment." But often talking and talking, he would calculate the business more carefully, and carefully explained to her: "Therefore, if Qiu Bailu is sold to the rich and exquisite Jiangnan, he will definitely not be able to raise the high price." Now that the production of tea has been reduced by more than half, it is even more impossible to sell to Jiangnan. Only by selling to the other side of Juyongguan, where goods are scarce, can we make the most profits. ”
More often, the two will sit under the big banyan tree on the top of the mountain and taste the glutinous rice wine brought by the steward, the wine is sweet and mellow, the fragrance is rich, Zhou Rushui likes to drink, often drinks more than Liu Fenghan.
Liu Fenghan knew that she was a female official from the palace, so she would joke from time to time that she didn't know about the people's suffering. On this day, when there was no one around, he sneered even more sarcastically: "What is so good in the palace? It is obviously a gorgeous golden cage, but the world has broken its head and wants to drill into it? Why did your parents send you to the palace? Could it be that there are really rare treasures there? So much so that even if the flesh and blood are separated, they will not hesitate to do so?"
At that time, Zhou Rushui had drunk a lot of glutinous rice wine, she blushed, wiped her mouth with her sleeve, and replied lightly: "What treasures can there be! It's just that you eat better, live better, and live more tired." Or perhaps, it is because the king is long live, long live, long live, long live, after thousands of rituals, and the world for a long time. If you are stained with a long life, there will always be some benefits! Perhaps, you can really live a few years longer! But so what? If you are not happy to live, you might as well die!" Speaking of this, she tilted her head slightly, laughed stupidly, turned her head, stared at the wine that had drunk most of it, reached out and took it, and drank it up.
Hearing that after thousands of rituals, with the world for a long time, Liu Fenghan raised his eyebrows, he looked at Zhou Rushui who was drinking wine for a long time, and first sneered at her: "When you eat wine, you really look like the cat who stole fish." As he spoke, he sneered with disdain: "You're right, what's the use of living a long life? If you don't live well, you will suffer a long time! Besides, from ancient times to the present, no one who has ever really attained immortality has ever been able to live forever! In the final analysis, it is better to live in gold!"
"Even if there is really anyone who has gained immortality, we don't know!" Zhou Rushui looked at him with a smile, threw the wine bottle back a few times, pinched a young leaf and threw it on his shoulder, his beautiful eyes narrowed like a crescent moon on the horizon, and teased him: "You are really vulgar!
Hearing this, the corners of Liu Fenghan's mouth lifted, fell back, leaned against the tree and smiled, and then hummed: "Heh, what do you know? If the young master is an official, he may be the number one Qing official in the world! I said that your sister-in-law knows less! In this world, it is never a good word for a capable person to work hard! The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, and the faster he will die! Maybe at that time, the common people all have to rely on the master to feed, and for their food, clothing, and wealth, the master alone will have to go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire! Do your best! After death! Tsk, it's a pity to want to come!"
As he said this, the bright red sunset slowly stained the branches.
Liu Fenghan's beautiful eyes were mysteriously and deeply reflected by the setting sun, and the red mole between his eyebrows became more and more red. Staring at him, Zhou Rushui couldn't help but shake his head, and when he retracted his gaze, he also took a young leaf and threw it at him, and said angrily: "You can talk nonsense." ”
Hearing this, Liu Fenghan also smiled.
At that moment, just above them, the sparrows perched on the branches spread their wings and slid into the sky that was gradually dying red, and with a few birdsongs, the fallen leaves fluttered and scattered, one by two, and all fell quietly on their shoulders.
