Chapter 177: It's not dawn yet
readx;
Li Rui didn't hear it clearly at first, but then she heard it clearly, what Sister Chen was called, Li Rui didn't react that it was Ji Cheng's Cheng, but even so, she had already been burned inside, and she couldn't bear it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But women are a little clever in this matter, even if Li Rui wakes up Shen Jing at this time, what can the two of them quarrel about? Then she will never know who this so-called Sister Chen is.
Li Rui made up her mind to pay attention, and wanted to quietly inquire who this Sister Chen was, and then depending on the situation, whether she cut Sister Chen with one knife or two knives. In short, she must make this Sister Chen regret meeting her in her life, and let Shen Jing, a negative man, get a lifelong lesson.
And "Sister Chen", who was so hated by Li Rui that she couldn't scratch her face, actually had no less troubles in her heart than Li Rui.
After the cave room finally quieted down, Ji Cheng, who had been hungry for a day, finally picked off a flower crown weighing more than ten catties, used some rice porridge, and then went to the clean room.
The main courtyard of Jiuliyuan is the low-key luxury of the old family, and the furniture in the main hall is six or seven percent of the old and new, at most, because the newcomer enters the door and repaints it, it does not look eye-catching.
Only when you enter this clean room is it impressive. In the clean room is a round pond built of white jade, I am afraid that there is a zhang to be wide, with a faint jade blue, the water inlet is a pair of camellias, carved with jade color, half green and half white, race peony.
Ji Cheng sat in the pool, looking at the camellia carefully, only to feel familiar, and after thinking for a long time, it took a long time to remember that the appearance of this flower was like the pattern on the camellia mask she wore when she first met Tong Xiang and them.
Ji Cheng's fingers touched the petals of the camellia, and there were few people carving the camellia on the edge of the pool. She looked up by chance, thinking that the round window in front of the clean room was deliberately empty without pasting window paper, but when she saw the steaming water vapor on it, she realized that it was actually a whole piece of Poli.
Although Po Li is not too rare now, there are very few such clear and crystal clear without variegation, and it is still such a wide piece, Ji Cheng has not only never seen it, but has never even heard of it. She suddenly remembered that Mei Changhe had mentioned to her a few years ago that she had eaten Po Li, saying that he had improved the recipe and could produce Po Li with high transparency, could it be the kind in front of her, right?
Ji Cheng also mentioned it to Shen Che at the beginning, but he didn't expect that he really asked someone to go to Da Shi and get this kind of Po Li back, Fang Zi was only afraid that Shen Che would also get it, otherwise if the thousands of miles and thousands of mountains were transported from Da Shi to such a big Po Li, it would definitely be broken a long time ago.
After Ji Cheng bathed, he wrapped himself in a towel and stood in front of the window of Poli, where the terrain was slightly higher than the rest of the Qi Garden, and he was not worried about being seen untidy, and it was dark at this time, so he had no worries. Ji Cheng touched Na Po Li carefully, thinking that if he could see the snow from such a window in winter, it would be a great pleasure. I don't have to go outside to get frozen, and I can see the snow clearly, which is much better than the window paper and window screens.
There is a round window on all sides of the clean room of this nine-mile courtyard, and even there is one on the ceiling, I don't know what it is used for, there is a roof on it, and it is not blind to be a window?
"Girl, come and get dressed, my aunt will go back to the room later." Liu Ye'er urged Ji Cheng beside him.
Ji Cheng left from the window at this time, and Liu Ye'er waited to change his clothes.
"Huh." Ji Cheng looked at the dressing mirror in front of him curiously. The one-person-high mirror illuminates the person clearly, and the patterns on the clothes are exquisite, which is many times better than the bronze mirror, and the copper mirror is not so big.
Jingshi is worthy of being a gathering place for freshmen and new things, and everything is the first to appear in Jingshi.
"The slave maid was also surprised just now, this capital can't be compared to a small place like our northern Jin." Liu Yeer said.
Ji Cheng asked, "Why did you suddenly say that the slave maid is here?" ”
Liu Ye'er said: "In the past, we were guests in the Shen Mansion, one bite at a time, no one would say that there were no rules, but now the girl is the second young grandmother of the Shen family, and the slaves and maids can no longer be without rules." Even Yu Qian'er said that she was there. ”
Ji Cheng nodded and said with a smile: "Liu Ye'er, what should I do if I leave you?" ”
Liu Ye'er said: "The slave will never leave the girl for the rest of her life." ”
Ji Cheng's smile faded a little, she did have the heart to keep Liu Ye'er for a lifetime, but Shen Che's heart, she was really unpredictable, so she didn't dare to speak rashly. It's just that Liu Ye'er is not too young to delay.
Get dressed and sit down in front of the makeup ceremony, this is Ji Cheng's dowry, a dressing table carved with a twig grape pattern. There are three layers of wooden box makeup mirror table on the top, and the middle piece is supported to be the place where the copper mirror is placed.
With the talented dressing mirror Zhuyu in front, the begonia button and bronze mirror in Ji Cheng's dowry are a little insufficient. Liu Ye'er opened the makeup, but saw that the bronze mirror was received into the box, and instead it was a mercury mirror of the same material as the dressing mirror, and it was like a screen, folded in half.
"Ah, this mirror is so weird." Liu Ye'er pointed to the mirror on the left and said, "This mirror seems to be able to make people bigger." ”
Ji Cheng poked his head over, it's true, even if his eyes are not good, he can take care of the corners and corners when he is thrushing and rubbing rouge. "It's new."
By the time Ji Cheng finished cooking, it was already dark outside, and the moon was hanging in the middle of the sky, and she sat by the window with an ivory silk fan in her hand and watched the full moon in the sky. It turns out that this outer room is also a Poli window, but it is not as large as the clean room, so it is not eye-catching.
Nowadays, the honest people in the capital are all proud of the transparent Poli window, which is beautiful and practical, and it is quite a lot of money.
Ji Cheng calculated for Shen Che in his heart, just this Po Li didn't know how much silver he had earned, this business was like picking up money on the ground, just thinking about it was eye-catching.
The bride is a natural vulgar thing, and on the wedding night, she only patronizes how the groom makes money. And most of the other brides are most worried about what their mothers will teach in private on the eve of their wedding.
Ji Cheng's mother Yun Niang is gone, and no one gives her guidance on this, Fan Zengli is the eldest sister-in-law, although she is like a mother, she is not a mother, she will inevitably talk about it, just say that women don't care, just let the man toss. However, there is one thing that must be remembered, that is, remember to be solemn at all times, especially in a family like the Shen family, which has a lot of rules.
In the matter of making the bed, don't learn the powder of the green building, and there is nothing to do. Don't scream, you can't twist your waist and hips, you must not mess around with the gentlemen during the day, and you must blow out the candles even at night.
Ji Cheng thought at that time that she had committed all these taboos that Fan Zengli said, and probably couldn't pretend to be solemn, anyway, in Shen Che's heart, she had nothing to do with Qinglang Shameless.
Although he had already come over, Ji Cheng was still a little nervous or resistant in his heart, otherwise he would not have sat on the couch and watched the moon.
Shen Che had already washed when he entered the door, his hair was slightly wet and shiny, and the smell of alcohol was completely gone.
Ji Cheng turned around when he heard the sound of the door opening, and saw Shen Che, who was still wearing a red plain robe. Red should have been the color of his daughter's house, but the man was all red on the happiest days of his life.
Shen Che was unexpectedly upright in red, and he became more and more noble, softening his eyebrows and eyes by two points, adding a hint of tenderness, and without saying a word, it was already making people think about it.
Unfortunately, the more gentle this person is, the more poisonous he becomes. Ji Cheng only glanced at it and looked away.
After Shen Che entered the door, he didn't take a few steps before leaning on the doorpost of the mallet and not moving, looking at Ji Cheng not far away. This was the first time he had seen Ji Cheng red.
The red dress is made of gold, reflected by the candlelight, illuminating a color that is more gorgeous than the morning glow, so beautiful that people can't help but hold their breath.
Wrapped in the red skirt is lychee meat, crystal clear, sweet and moist white, it is the kind of beauty that people can't wait to take in their mouths and then chew out the water.
It's just that the flesh looks as sweet as a lychee, but it is actually the sweet and sour of summer oranges, which can call you heaven when it is sweet, and sour your teeth when it is sour.
Ji Cheng didn't like Shen Che looking at himself like this the most, as if his heart had been coiled with countless thoughts and woven into a spider's web, but he couldn't move so hard that he couldn't move.
"How long are you going to stand there and watch?" Ji Cheng said with some embarrassment.
"I'm afraid that if I walk over, you'll be even more uncomfortable." Shen Che said.
The inexplicable meaning of the words made Ji Cheng blush a little, and she almost forgot that Shen Che was used to being good at saying serious things very improperly.
Ji Cheng put the ivory filament fan on the small table and stood up, "I'll ask the girl to cook you a bowl of hangover soup." ”
Shen Che smiled, took a few steps forward and sat down on the couch opposite Ji Cheng, "No, if you don't get drunk, everyone gets drunk." ”
Ji Cheng coughed lightly twice, he was indeed a little uncomfortable in the face of Shen Che, they were not as good as strangers, the husband and wife who had never met before lifted their heads, as long as they did not look crooked and cracked, it would be a thing, where could they compare to the thousands of mountains and rivers between her and Shen Che.
"So let's play a game of chess?" Ji Cheng asked.
"Why do we play chess on the night of candles in the cave room? Who wins, who decides? Shen Che asked, and then glanced over to the bed.
Ji Cheng was really choked by Shen Che's hint, and she seriously doubted whether Shen Che was drunk.
"It's too late tonight, it's easy to get tired and sad to play chess, do you want to play dice?" Shen Che said.
Ji Cheng didn't understand the logic of Shen Che's jump, but it was better to play dice than to sleep with a big bed than to go to bed, so she nodded. In fact, Ji Cheng didn't want to be hypocritical, since she didn't run away from marriage, it already showed that she accepted the reality and would live well in this reality, so she had to deal with Shen Che perfunctorily, she was already mentally prepared, but at the end of the day, the moment she saw Shen Che, she felt that her heart was twisted into a twist, she could drag it out, and she could hide it.
"How about the easiest to play, compared to size?" Shen Che took the dice cup and dice.
Ji Cheng nodded.
"There is no gambling and no color, it is not interesting to play, how about who loses and who accepts a request from the other party?" Shen Che said.
Ji Cheng raised his eyelids, "Is it okay to ask for anything?" ”
Shen Che glanced at Ji Cheng with a smile, "You're quite bold?" It's just that your gambling is too bad, and I'm really not at ease. Today's request is limited to what can be done in this courtyard. ”
"What's wrong with my gambling money?" Ji Cheng asked unconvincedly, business people pay the most attention to integrity, and they can't be bad in terms of gambling.
Shen Che sneered, "When you were in Sanhaoju, do you remember our gambling contract?" ”
Ji Cheng was stunned, compared to today's situation, should she say that Shen Che completed his bet? And she seems to have escaped in the middle.
Ji Cheng picked up the dice cup from the small table, took three exquisite dice in his hand, and said slowly: "Do you dare to say that you planned to fulfill the contract when you agreed on the bet?" ”
Shen Che winked at Ji Cheng, "Gambling is fraud, as long as you don't go out, it's not a violation." If you can ask such a question, it already means that you are not good at gambling. Shen Che continued to shake his head and said, "If the gambling products are not good, the gambling skills are even more difficult to talk about." ”
It's just unbearable.
Ji Cheng threw the dice into the dice cup with a very beautiful technique, and shook it as soon as her hand was raised, the three dice made a crisp and pleasant sound in the dice cup, her hand drew a beautiful and graceful arc in the air, and after a while, she buckled it on the table, and after a few turns, the dice slowly stopped until it was silent.
Ji Cheng used to be curious about everything, she had done it when she went up the mountain to hunt birds, and when she went down to fish, she had followed her brother to the place of Qinglou in northern Jinbei, and she definitely didn't let go of a place like a casino. Although shaking the dice and listening to the dice is not good, I have learned one or two hands from the dealer in the casino.
Shen Che's methods are much more plain than Ji Cheng's. Shake it twice, and it will be buckled on several sides, "Is it bigger or smaller?" ”
"Great." Ji Cheng is crisp and authentic.
Shen Che opened the dice cup, revealing two fives and one six. Ji Cheng's dice cup was revealed to be three sixes, this time she really raised her eyebrows, she laughed, "I don't know whose gambling skills are not in the stream?" ”
Shen Che made a gesture of please, meaning to ask Ji Cheng to make a request.
