001: Resignation
In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, every household is lit up, even in the small firewood room with the aroma of wine in Yecheng, it is dyed with a little warm soft light.
Fusang listened to Gu Huacheng's words, personally moved a large jar of wine, sent it to the firewood room, looked at the food on Meng Chuntao's table and frowned slightly. Leaving a phrase of "you wait a while", they rushed back to their dining room, and quietly brought a plate of elbows and a large plate of dumplings from the table.
Jiuniang frowned, looked at Fusang's movements, and asked, "Senior brother, do you think you are particularly handsome?" ”
"Huh? Haven't I always been handsome? Do you still need to feel it suddenly? ”
"I'll get it for you." Jiuniang twitched the corner of her mouth, and sure enough, she didn't know what she was saying, and Fusang would never understand what people meant.
Fusang smiled and handed the plate of dumplings to Jiu Niang, his eyes still glancing at the table.
Gu Huacheng glanced at Fusang, sighed, and asked Jiu Niang as if discussing: "Why don't you call them over to eat together." ”
"Master?" Jiu Niang was a little puzzled.
went to shout Meng Youcai's task, and was snatched by Fusang with a smile on his face. Jiang Nu looked at this and that, and ran out under the pretext that there was still soup boiling in the stove room.
"It's always more lively when there are more people." Gu Huacheng smiled and patted Jiu Niang's head.
"Hmm." Jiuniang nodded, looking at a large table of dishes in a daze.
When Meng Chuntao and Meng Youcai followed Fusang in, they were still a little unsteady in their hearts. Obviously, before Jiuniang, the well water did not interfere with the river water, and you had the attitude of fending for yourself, and some people ran to say that they were keeping the New Year with them. Meng Chuntao didn't mumble in his heart, but when he glanced at Meng Youcai beside him, he felt that Meng Youcai was very comfortable, and even a little smug between his eyebrows.
Meng Chuntao took a few steps behind, reached out and tugged at Meng Youcai's sleeve, and asked softly, "Youcai, does this matter have anything to do with you?" ”
"Nope." Meng Youcai spread his hands. glanced at Meng Chuntao again, and then said with a smile, "Maybe the second sister's heart is not as bad as you say." ”
Fusang glanced back at them, and Meng Youcai grinned at Fusang: "Brother Fusang, it won't be long before I can pay off my brother's money." ”
Fusang was stunned for a moment, didn't say anything, asked them to wait at the door of the dining room, and went in to say something to Gu Huacheng.
With permission, Meng Chuntao and Meng Youcai entered the dining room one after the other and stood at the dining table. Rub your hands together.
Jiu Niang frowned and glared at them: "What are you doing standing?" Why don't you thank Master? ”
"Hey." Meng Chuntao was about to kneel down in response.
Fusang's eyes were quick, he stopped Meng Chuntao, and said with a smile: "You don't have to make such a big ceremony, we can't afford it, besides, even if you kowtow, you don't have any New Year's money." ”
Jiuniang twitched the corners of her mouth, glanced at Meng Chuntao, and suddenly stood up.
"Jiuniang?" Gu Huacheng raised his eyebrows.
"I'm just going to call my sister, and everyone else will start eating. My sister hasn't come back yet. ”
As soon as Jiu Niang's words fell, Jiang Nu came in with a big bowl of soup.
Glancing at the situation in the room, Jiang Nu smiled a little embarrassedly: "What are you all standing for, even if I didn't come back." You don't have to wait for me like that. ”
"Okay, okay, the little junior sister is also back, let's all take a seat quickly." Fusang beckoned everyone to take a seat and added dishes and chopsticks to Meng Chuntao and Meng Youcai. This set his eyes on Gu Huacheng.
Gu Huacheng didn't say anything, just raised his wine glass and smiled at Jiu Niang.
A meal. The silence of the food is incomparable.
After eating, Meng Youcai glanced at Meng Chuntao. Meng Chuntao frowned, stood up, and smiled at Gu Huacheng: "Thank you, Mr. Gu, since the meal is over, let's go back first." ”
"Huh." Jiuniang sneered, and cleaned up the table with Jiang Nu, "I didn't know who said that he was going to do laundry and cook for us, but now I don't know how to wash the dishes after eating." ”
Meng Chuntao's face turned red, glanced at Meng Youcai, and rolled up his sleeves to help clean up the table.
Jiu Niang turned sideways and happened to separate Meng Chuntao. Jiang Nu glanced at Meng Chuntao silently and smiled: "Meng Chuntao, it's a big New Year, why do you say you're so ......?"
"How?" Meng Chuntao frowned, although she didn't know what Jiang Nu wanted to say, but she also knew that it wouldn't be a good thing.
Jiang Nu smiled, grimaced at Meng Chuntao, and went to the stove room with the plates.
Gu Huacheng looked at a few of them, smiled slightly, got up and picked up the wine jug and left by himself.
Fusang looked at this and that, and finally decided to run over to find Gu Huacheng.
"Master."
"Huh?" Gu Huacheng turned his head and looked at Fusang.
"Tonight, I heard that fireworks will be set off near the Imperial City...... I...... I want to take my sister with me......"
"Well, let's take the ginger girl with you." Gu Huacheng took Fusang's words with a slight smile, and asked in Fusang's incredulous expression: "What?" You don't want to take the ginger girl with you? Didn't you say that Jiang Nu was your little junior sister before, and you would definitely treat her well? ”
"But Master, I'm not just a junior sister of Jiang Nu!" Fusang twitched the corners of his mouth, and finally found his voice, and after saying this, as if demonstrating, Fusang paused, and said to Gu Huacheng very hard, "Master, I think my junior sister and I are in the right years, and we are very suitable for ......."
"Hmm." Gu Huacheng nodded.
Fusang looked up at Gu Huacheng with a look of ecstasy, his lips trembled a little, and he opened his mouth for a long time before he said: "Master, you really ......"
Gu Huacheng waved his hand and interrupted Fusang's words again, "Well, I really should tell you a daughter-in-law." Fusang, two days ago, the Wang family in the east of the city came to find a teacher, saying that it was the girl of their family......"
"Master, do you mean that Miss Wang who is full of pockmarked faces, five big and three rough can kill a cow with one shot? Master, you have become a believer! You know who I'm talking about! You know what I mean. Fusang rolled up his sleeves viciously at Gu Huacheng.
"Tsk." Gu Huacheng shook his head, "Don't talk about Miss Wang's family, it's good that the Wang's shop is also the largest pork shop in Yecheng, you look down on people so much, it's not good for our family to buy pork cheaper in the future." ”
"Bah, Master, don't change the subject."
Gu Huacheng was stunned, turned his head and stared at Fusang for a while, feeling that the expression on Fusang's face seemed to be very serious. His heart jumped suddenly, but Gu Huacheng said, "Aren't you cold with your sleeves rolled?" ”
When Gu Huacheng said this, Fusang seemed to have just noticed the cold, and silently lowered his sleeves. When he raised his eyes to look at Gu Huacheng again, there was an indescribable solemnity: "Master, don't forget, you are our master." ”
Gu Huacheng didn't speak, and the silence between the two of them was a little uncomfortable.
"Master, brother, what are you doing here? Senior sister is still looking for you everywhere. ”
There was a somewhat surprised voice from Jiang Nu behind her, Gu Huacheng turned around to look, Jiang Nu was wearing a heavy cloak, and her face looked more and more ruddy under the light of the lantern. Gu Huacheng couldn't help frowning and asked, "What is Jiu Niang looking for us?" ”
"I heard that there are fireworks near the Imperial City, and my sister and I want to see them, so let's ask Master and Senior Brother if they want to go together." Jiang Nu explained with a smile.
Gu Huacheng glanced at Fusang with a smile and nodded: "Then let's go together, but we have to wear more." ”
"Hmm." Jiang Nu nodded vigorously, "Then Senior Sister and I are waiting for you at the door, we are all wearing a lot, Master and Senior Brother should wear more." As she spoke, Jiang Nu waved her hand at the two of them and trotted away.
Gu Huacheng smiled at Fusang, turned around and went to the house to go to the house to find two big pieces, and when he came out, Fusang was still standing in the courtyard in a daze.
Angrily threw a big piece over, Gu Huacheng frowned: "Let's go." ”
Fusang took it, glanced at it and frowned: "Master, do you need to take this?" ”
Gu Huacheng flew over with another eye knife: "Didn't you see what Fang Cai Jiang Nu was wearing?" Those two girls only care about looking good, if they watch the fireworks and the two of them go to see something else on a whim, they won't freeze to death in the middle of the night! ”
"When did Master become so meticulous?" Fusang puffed up a sentence, looked at Gu Huacheng and glared at him again, and hurriedly added, "For the New Year, who will come out to set up a stall, you can almost come back after watching the fireworks." ”
"Huh." Gu Huacheng chuckled lightly and didn't say anything.
At the door, Jiu Niang and Jiang Nu were talking there with smiles on their faces, and when they turned their heads and saw Gu Huacheng and them coming out, they shouted sweetly: "Master, senior brother." ”
This is still tonight, the first time Jiu Niang has smiled so happily, and the two men are a little fluttery by this smile.
Jiang Nu took Jiu Niang's arm and said to Gu Hua, "Master, then let's go now?" ”
"Otherwise, who else are you waiting for!" Jiuniang stretched out her hand and scratched Jiang Nu's nose, then turned her head to look at Gu Huacheng again.
Gu Huacheng nodded, and the two girls cheered, holding hands and running onto the street.
Xu is the first time to spend the New Year in Yecheng, and the two of them seem a little excited, looking left and right, and looking at what they see is very novel.
Fusang, the senior brother, followed behind resignedly, and if the two of them took a fancy to something, they were ready to pay.
Who knew that the two sisters just looked around, but they didn't buy anything. Fusang, who watched it, was amazed in his heart.
After a while, Gu Huacheng called out to Jiu Niang. Jiang Nu pinched Jiu Niang with a little wickedness, and was glared at by Jiu Niang.
"Go to the teahouse over there and sit for a while." Gu Huacheng smiled at Jiu Niang as if he hadn't seen Jiang Nu's movements.
"Is Master unbearable for the fireworks?" Jiu Niang looked a little surprised.
Gu Huacheng raised his eyebrows: "As a teacher, I just went to sit over there for a while, how can I not watch the fireworks?" Play with you, and I'll come looking for you in a moment. ”
"There are so many people, what if I can't find them?"
"Jiu Niang, are you so worried that the teacher can't find you?"
“……”
Fuso felt that the whole person was a little bit bad. (To be continued......)
