Chapter 124 Speechless and long
The one hundred and twenty-fourth time is speechless
The little guy who drove the car sat in the middle of a group of Taoist priests, and he was not used to it at first, but when he saw Qin Ying's leisurely and comfortable appearance beside him, he gradually let go.
After lunch, Qin Ying and the car boy went to the backyard to rest.
Seeing that her wing room was still preserved, and the quilt was still folded into a boxy block like when Qin Ying left, she was full of gratitude.
In a few moments, the little guy who drove the car sent Qin Ying to Dongshi.
Qin Ying held the hem of his robe in one hand, and jumped out of the car with the other hand, letting the little guy tie the reins under the locust tree on the side of the road, and ordered: "You take care of the car, I'll come when I go." ”
The little guy bowed his head and gave his hand in response.
He had never seen Qin Ying before, but he had already heard Qin Ying's name from the palace attendants in the East Palace. always thought that she was a well-known person, but in fact it was difficult to deserve, but now he and Qin Ying had only been in contact for half a day, and he found that she was not at all different from ordinary palace people. Although he has an official position, he does not put on a show, and although he has power, he will not abuse it.
So the little guy was desperate for Qin Ying.
Qin Ying smiled when she saw this, and bowed slightly to him.
She hadn't been to her heart for almost a year. This shop is still so low-key and restrained, obviously a place to make money and do business, but the decoration has a secluded style.
Entering the shop of Xixinzhai, Qin Ying followed the warm yellow light and saw the shopkeeper sitting at the table writing today's account.
She took the initiative to walk over and say hello, and explained her intentions, the shopkeeper put down the wolf's pen, raised his eyes and asked, "May I ask if you are a friend of the fate master?" Seeing Qin Ying nodded, he stretched out his hand and motioned for Qin Ying to take a seat, "Five years ago, Master Yuan deposited a painting here, and said that he would take it away in a few days—oh, at that time, Master Yuan had not yet become a monk - but he never took time to do so, so his painting hung here for many years. "He is a generous talker, Qin Ying did not have a stumbling arc
Qin Ying said: "He asked Qin to take the painting away and then hand it over to a certain lady in Zhonglu Pavilion in Pingkangfang." ”
The shopkeeper didn't show a hint of surprise, and said indifferently: "It's Zhong Luge's violet lady." ”
"Why do you say that?" Qin Ying didn't expect the shopkeeper to be able to accurately say the answer.
He showed a look of reminiscence, and said slowly: "I have known the contemptible and fateful master a few years ago, and it is normal to know something about him. It's the girl and the two families who live in the same workshop, and the two have grown up together since they were children, and the relationship is very good. The master first expressed his love for painting, and later the violet lady also subtly learned to paint. ”
"Two little no guesses childhood sweethearts...... Isn't it supposed to be a tie for the knot? Qin Ying cautiously asked, "Why did one become a geisha and the other a monk?" ”
"There's a word that doesn't mean it's made by creation." The shopkeeper picked up the folding fan on the side of the table, opened it with a bang, shook it twice, and said, "Do you know what happened in Chang'an City five years ago?" ”
"Five years ago was the first year of Zhenguan, and it was also the ninth year of Wude. The biggest thing that happened in Chang'an that year was that in June, His Royal Highness the King of Qin set up an ambush at the Xuanwu Gate, killed his brother, and forced his father to abdicate. ”
"Not bad. The father of the violet lady was a military general under the prince's account, and he died at the Xuanwu Gate. In order to avoid the possible disaster of the Zhu clan, the aunt of the Susy Lady hid her in Pingkangfang and became a geisha. After the fate of the teacher, he went to Hongfuji Temple to become a monk. Guess ...... His Dharma name 'Liyuan' was born from the violet lady. ”
"It's not that geisha can't redeem themselves." Qin Ying expressed doubts about such a sad and helpless ending.
"The household registration used by the Sumire Lady is now forged, and if the fate master wants to redeem herself, the life experience of the Sumire Lady may be found out." After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he sighed and sighed.
"The fate master still remembers the violet color in his heart, but the law number is still called the fate. If he can't get down to the dust, listen to others recite some of his own Dharma names, and he will be able to let go of it from the bottom of his heart? Qin Ying muttered to herself, and then she raised her head and said, "It's not too early, so I won't disturb your business." ”
The shopkeeper knocked on the door with a folding fan, stood up with a smile, walked to the wall at the entrance of the store, took off the portrait of Maitreya of the chief of the Zhang, and spread it out on the table with both hands.
- Good drawing. Even though the silk cloth has turned a little yellow, each stroke is still clearly visible. The smooth flow of the fine ink is a testament to his unhesitating and attentive approach to painting.
Maitreya in the painting has lowered his eyebrows and eyes, and his expression is kind, which calms the viewer's heart.
Qin Ying pulled up the two ends of the scroll, bowed his head and saluted, "Thank you." Qin said goodbye. ”
The shopkeeper smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to reopen the painting, carefully smoothed the folds in the scroll, closed the scroll, tied it with a silk ribbon and handed it to Qin Ying: "Please say hello to the lady on behalf of you." ”
She scratched her head in shame. The shopkeeper of this pen and ink shop is really meticulous in his love for calligraphy and painting.
So Qin Ying, who was holding a long scroll in both hands, walked on the road, her face was much more solemn.
The little guy conscientiously guarded the side of the car, Qin Ying clamped the painting at his elbow, so as to free up one hand, took out a few copper plates from the money bag on his waist, and asked him to make some buttermilk to drink. At first, he didn't dare to accept Qin Ying's money, but Qin Ying smiled and said that he would buy two people, so he hesitated to accept the money.
The car drove out of the most spacious street in the East City and drove non-stop to Zhonglu Pavilion in Pingkangfang.
Zhong Luge's bustard's mother heard the sound of the car outside the door getting closer and closer, and her heart was overjoyed, and she didn't wait for the sound of the wheels to stop, she walked to the door and waited.
The bustard's mother was familiar with the cars that frequented Pinghongfang, but she was a little afraid of the car in front of her, because it did not have any conspicuous mansion logo on the back of the car.
- The origin of the people in the car is unfathomable, so you must be careful to deal with it.
The bustard mother thought so.
Seeing a bony hand stretched out in the carriage, and the corner of the veiled green shirt was exposed, the bustard's mother greeted the driver and said with a smile: "May I ask your Excellency's surname, which lady's name is in the pavilion at o'clock?" ”
When the bustard mother saw who came out of the carriage, the smile on her face froze.
"Under Qin Ying. To see the pansy color. Qin Ying replied calmly, but she didn't look at the bustard's mother, and passed by the bustard's mother.
The first two teapots in Zhonglu Pavilion were actually Qin Ying, who had been a servant in Zhong Lu Pavilion two years ago, and they were stunned for a while, Qin Ying stepped into the vermilion lacquer threshold of Zhong Lu Pavilion, and they all forgot to collect Qin Ying's money.
Qin Ying chuckled when he saw this. She paused as one foot entered the door, poured out a whole tael of silver from her purse, and stuffed it into the arms of the consul's teapot.
