254 Throwing a purse
Xu Yu glanced at the people coming and going on the street, and said to Chuntang: "Tell the shopkeeper that if there are any boxes on the second and third floors facing the street that have not been booked, the quotation will be doubled." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Yes. Chuntang got the word and went to the shopkeeper first.
July looked at Xu Promise dumbfounded, and then stared at Chuntang's back in a daze, and only asked half-loudly: "Lady, the price of the same dish on a table is three times more than usual......!"
"Once a year, the ladies of Bianjing City will be willing to spend this money. Xu Promise straightened his sleeves, smiled at the lotus picture under the moon in the center of Heyuetang, and walked in.
July nodded as if he didn't understand, and followed the promise to go in.
The first floor of Heyue Hall is very large, and the distance between the tables is wider than that of other restaurants, but it is extremely neatly arranged, and the table and floor are also very clean.
At this time, it was not yet noon, and there were not many people who came to eat, so they stepped into the door with their front feet, and a small servant came forward to ask if they had booked a private room.
July said the name of the box, and the little guy personally took the two of them up.
The little guy went up the stairs and stretched out his hand to please.
When he arrived at the box, he saw that the door of the box was closed, so he promised to wait a while, and then knocked on the door.
A female voice came from the box: "Please come in." ”
The little guy pushed the door in response.
Xu promised to find out that Lu Jiuniang had arrived.
When Lu Jiuniang saw the promise, she stood up with a smile and said, "Liuniang, congratulations, congratulations to the eldest cousin, I wanted to follow you back in the evening to personally say congratulations to my cousin, but my father told me that the official family was going to have a banquet for the new jinshi in the evening." I was so dizzy with joy that I forgot about it, and I came to the door with my mother a few days later to say hello?"
"Sister Nine, congratulations on what I have done, when the eldest brother has no appointment, I will let the little girl go to your house to reveal a letter, and you will come with your aunt again, so as not to make a mistake. Xu Promise looked at Lu Jiuniang with a heartfelt smile, and she was also happy, her eldest brother was admitted to the Jinshi, which was the happiest thing she had ever done in a long time.
When Erlang grows up and is also admitted to the Jinshi, there will be three Jinshi in the Xu family.
She is the woman behind the successful men.
"Okay, I'm waiting for your news. Lu Jiuniang pulled Xu Yu to sit down next to him, and then said: "Liuniang, why did you book such a big box, which is bigger than the largest box in Wanxianglou, here...... I'll pay half for you. ”
"Sister Jiu, don't worry, my mother feels sorry for me, but she gave me a lot of money, I didn't spend it on weekdays, now that my eldest brother is in high school, I'm happy to invite everyone, just play with peace of mind." Xu Yu didn't expect Lu Jiuniang to worry about money for her, but she was really careful and considerate, Hu Ling's guy would never have thought of this.
Lu Jiuniang was suspicious, and before she had time to ask in detail, when others came in, she didn't mention it again.
Hu Ling was the last to arrive, and as soon as she came in, she asked: "There are two people outside the door who are sneaking in, I don't know what they are going to do, are they any of you's maidservants?"
"I also saw it when I came in just now, it was the maid who was following the lord of Jiaren County, and when I came up just now, I happened to hear them talking, saying that the lord of Jiaren County also came to Heyuetang to see the Shiyou Street, and wanted to book the largest box here, but I didn't want to be preempted by us. A lady spoke.
Speaking of the county lord of Jiaren, Hu Ling was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves, and he couldn't wait to go out and have a fight with the lord of Jiaren County now, Lu Jiuniang hurriedly stepped forward and patted Hu Ling's back to comfort her.
The promise whispered something in Chuntang's ear quietly, and Chuntang got up and walked out of the box after hearing it, and came back after a while, nodding at the promise.
Xu also nodded, signaling that he understood.
Lu Jiuniang seemed to notice something, glanced at the promise, and the promise smiled and did not speak.
After ordering the food, almost all the ladies pinched their sleeves and gathered around the window, waiting for the new recruits to ride by.
As they waited, they talked about it, and one or two of them even blushed from talking.
Every year, after the palace test is released, the families of the ladies who have not yet decided on their relatives in the capital begin to grab their sons-in-law.
Most of the ladies who kicked the juju with the promise have not yet been married, and today they see the street here, each with their own thoughts, and maybe they will throw their purses or handkerchiefs into the hands of their future husbands.
When the conversation was lively here, someone knocked on the door, and without waiting for a reply from the box, he opened the door and came in, it was the two maids who were outside just now.
One of them said, "Our lady wants this private room, we have booked the one next to it, you can change it with us." ”
There was no discussion in the handmaiden's words, and it was full of course.
"No, I don't change. Xu Promise said without raising his head.
"Do you know who our lady is!" said the maidservant, raising her chin and raising her chin, with a hint of threat in her words.
Xu Promise put down the tea bowl heavily, stood up expressionlessly, and was about to speak, but saw Hu Ling standing in front of the two maids in stride, and said word by word with a dark face: "Do you understand that first come, first come, we booked here first, this is ours, don't compare my identity, even if the queen mother is here, we won't change!"
The maid's face became ugly, and Hu Ling, who was a head taller than her and had a vicious face, shrank her head and retreated.
"Let's play with ours, don't worry about them. Lu Jiuniang knew the tense relationship between Hu Ling and the county lord of Jiaren, and hurriedly went up to pull Hu Ling's hand.
Hu Ling snorted and said, "I don't care about people like her!"
As soon as the maidservant returned to the box next to her, there was the sound of broken porcelain.
Xu Yu frowned, it seems that the overcharge of the county lord of Jiaren is not enough, and she has to pay for this expensive porcelain vase at the checkout.
With the boiling sound coming from outside, the unpleasantness quickly passed.
Song Jiao rode a black horse and walked in front, his eyebrows were soothing, his gods were handsome, and he was dressed very neatly.
Promise has good eyesight, and he can see his expression clearly from a distance, compared to the modesty of the past, today's Song Jiao is very confident. The self-confidence buried in the body was all released when he won the title of champion.
Behind Song Jiao is Ye Chunchen, who promised not to see Ye Chunchen for a long time, his face seems to be a little more angular, but he still gives people a handsome and elegant feeling, and his eyes are very clear. He still has the short Xiao given by Xu Pingyi hanging around his waist.
The exam didn't seem to affect him at all, and everything he had seemed to be expected, neither surprised nor frustrated.
Although Song Qi was ahead of the line, his original temperament was very introverted, and in the face of such a lively scene today, the whole person became more introverted, if he hadn't deliberately looked for it, he promised to almost not see him.
looked back again, and saw Xu Pingyi.
Xu Pingyi sat on the horse with his back straight, his face was lined with a dark blue auspicious cloud rune bat pattern brocade robe, a wide belt with silver lines was tied around his waist, and his hair was tied up with a jade crown.
No wonder July morning saw the eldest brother's face as red as an apple.
Big brother is such a gentleman, which lady won't be moved after seeing it?
The people in this row looked down, and Xu Yu still felt that his eldest brother was the best-looking, and he vigorously told the people next to him to throw a purse handkerchief to Xu Pingyi, and he didn't forget to tell him to throw it lightly, don't hurt him.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Song Jiao's horse came, all the ladies threw out the purses in their hands.
Promise stared at them wide-eyed, some explained that his hand had slipped, and others snickered and did not speak.
Xu Yu snorted: "My eldest brother is young and promising, kind-hearted, and looks so good, not to mention that there is such a well-behaved and sensible sister as me, you are unexpectedly! Hmph, no vision, no vision!"
After finishing speaking, he took out four or five handkerchiefs from his arms, took a few purses handed over by Chuntang, and threw them all down when Xu Pingyi passed by their window.
Xu Pingyi was hit on the head by a pile of very dense purses.
He tugged at the reins slightly, and when he looked up, he saw the promise with a big smile.
Xu Pingyi smiled and shouted: "Liuniang".
This smile made the whole lady by the window of Heyuetang straighten their eyes.
The county lord of Jiaren in the box next to him saw Xu Pingyi looking over, and he was so happy that he didn't know what to do, and he was overwhelmed by his smile, so he hurriedly threw down the purse embroidered by himself, but he didn't see his mouth clearly, and he didn't know that he didn't see her at all.
The purse thrown by the county lord of Jiaren grazed behind Xiao Yuan, and fell under the feet of the pedestrians who were crowded on the side of the road to watch the bustle, and it was trampled flat after a while.
