Chapter 13 Jia City
Looking forward to, looking forward to, Wang Mengning's long-awaited Jia City is finally here. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
On the day of Jia City, her parents went out early. Sure enough, a businessman has a more sensitive sense of smell than the average person.
But Wang Mengning is not interested in doing business, and I don't know if her father will have no successor......
By the time Wang Mengning and the others had breakfast and arrived in Jia City, it was already three poles in the morning.
When I arrived at the corner of the street, it was a scene of crowds of people and traffic.
Wang Mengning was dressed in men's clothes, and his five-foot figure was nearly a head shorter in front of Su Limo and Yin Wuzhan. Her eyes widened, and she couldn't help but admire: "Wow, Jia Shi is really different!" ”
Su Limo raised his eyebrows, "That's it, this is an annual feast for merchants, it is said that merchants are the richest people, and this Jia City is of course the most prosperous street market!" ”
After thinking about it, he added: "By the way, Meng Ning, can you stop running around today and follow us." There are many fish and dragons in this Jia market, and there are thieves everywhere who want to take the sheep by the hand, and I'm afraid that something will happen to you when the time comes. ”
Wang Mengning waved his hand indifferently, "What a big deal." "Just kidding, I think she Wang Mengning is not the kind of daughter who doesn't go out of the door, she is the second master Xiao who moves the entire Jiangnan Qinglou, she hasn't seen any scenes, although she really hasn't seen any big scenes.
Su Limo looked at her indifferent expression, and couldn't help frowning, this cousin is really a headache, didn't she find the seriousness of the problem?
"But I'm afraid ......"
"What are you afraid of," Wang Mengning interrupted him, and glanced at him with disgust, a dignified seven-foot man, afraid of wolves and tigers, he didn't know where his manhood went, he probably forgot it at home.
Su Limo shook his head helplessly, not that he was afraid that you, the ancestor, would cause something wrong, and they would be implicated again when the time came.
Wang Mengning patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, young man, I'm a resourceful person, not to mention those thieves, even if there is a Jiangyang thief, I can handle it easily." ”
Su Limo looked at her confident face that came from nowhere, and couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth, is this so? Why did he feel so unreliable?
"Alright, cousin, let's go! Before you go, say yes, if you accidentally get separated, don't look for us, and we won't look for you. ”
"That's not going to work, what if something happens?"
Wang Mengning couldn't wait to hit him a few times, she just wanted to have a good time, the two of them followed, how could she play?
"Don't worry, I'll take care of myself. It's really not good, let's all go to the big restaurant in front of us at three o'clock in the afternoon, wait for me to see what the name is, oh, how about the food all over the world meet? ”
And then by the way, blackmail them for a meal. Thinking of this, Wang Mengning couldn't help but whisper: "How could I be so smart." ”
Su Limo looked at her calculating eyes, how could he have a faint uneasiness, always feeling that he would scatter his wealth today......
"Alright, cousin, let's go!"
As she spoke, Wang Mengning took Qin'er and stepped into Jiashimen first.
Su Limo and Yin Wuzhan hurriedly caught up, and after chasing a few steps, they sadly found that they had lost Wang Mengning so quickly......
The two big men are in Jia City, looking up to the sky and sighing, wanting to cry without tears, the two of them are more or less people who have learned a little martial arts, okay? Even a girl can't stand it, so don't mix it up in the capital.
Yin Wuzhan looked around, where was Wang Mengning's figure, "What now?" ”
Su Limo wiped a handful of bitter tears, "What else can I do, she just deliberately let us lose it, forget it, let her go." ”
"Is that really okay?"
"Don't worry, my cousin is clever, others want to calculate her, and she is estimated to be calculated first." In fact, Su Limo couldn't make up his mind in his heart, after all, the capital was not as good as Jiangnan, but he lost Wang Mengning's people, it was more difficult to find someone in this kind of market than to ascend to the sky, let alone a person who deliberately avoided them.
"Regardless of her, let's visit ours, don't you particularly like to drink Longjing in the Western Regions, let's go over and have a look."
"Okay, let's go!"
Wang Mengning hid behind a large column at the door, watching the two of them leave, and then walked out with a wicked smile.
Su Limo was right, she did it on purpose. It wasn't hard for her to get rid of the people who were following her. I think that her father and mother sent wave after wave of people to follow her, when did she not retreat?
"Sample, you still want to look at me?"
Qin'er looked at the backs of Su Limo and Yin Wuzhan who were drifting away, and frowned, "Miss, is it really good to do this?" If we don't know each other well, will there be any accidents? ”
Wang Mengning looked at her girl with hatred and knocked on her head, "I said Qin'er, you have been pampered for a long time, have you forgotten that you know martial arts?" With my ingenuity and your good kung fu, not to mention this Jia City, you can travel all over the capital without fear! ”
How could Qin'er forget that she knew martial arts, and when she met a master like Miss who didn't make people worry, no matter how good her martial arts were, it was estimated that she would not be able to use them.
"Okay, Qin'er, relax, let's go shopping now."
All the rumors about Jia City are true, there are really many exotic people in Jia City, they have different colored eyes, speak their own local dialect, and communicate with others by gestures, or there are some people who can understand their words, standing aside as interpreters.
And most of those translators were court officials. There are also a group of guards patrolling with knives in Jia City to prevent people with bad intentions from disturbing the peace of Jia City, which is enough to show that the imperial court attaches great importance to Jia City.
Wang Mengning came to a stall selling scallion pancakes, the boss was a mute who couldn't speak, he could only smile when someone came, and he looked very pleasing.
This boss also has a peculiar appearance, his head is pointed, as if it has been cut with a knife. The eyebrows are very dark, like two caterpillars biting on them, but they don't look disgusting, but full of joy.
With his laughter, the two "caterpillars" actually shook as if they were alive.
His palms are extraordinarily large and extraordinarily thick. It is estimated that because of many years of pancakes, his hands can be used freely in the oil pan.
Wang Mengning looked at his skillful technique, and couldn't help but take his hand to observe carefully.
This move startled Qin'er behind her: "Miss, I can't help it." ”
Qin'er's whole person is not good, has the young lady forgotten that she is a daughter, how can she casually pull the hands of other men!
The boss looked at Wang Mengning in astonishment and pulled his hand, and then compared his hand with his own, and his hand was only half the size of his!
Wang Mengning's hand is a slightly larger one among her peers, but when her hand covered the hand of the scallion pancake boss, she felt that her hand was really small.
Wang Mengning smiled embarrassedly at the boss, and let go of his hand.
The boss also came to his senses, touched his bald head, and smiled shyly.
Wang Mengning pointed to the scallion pancakes in the oil pot, and then made a "two" gesture, the boss understood and hurriedly branded two for them.
Wang Mengning turned her head and looked at the price sign that had been written, asked Qin'er to pay, took the scallion pancake and walked deeper into Jia City.
Wang Mengning walked around in front of this stall, and looked in front of that stall, and after a while, Qin'er had a lot of big and small things in her hands.
Just as she was having a good time, there was a sound of blowing in the restaurant next to her.
provoked Wang Mengning to stop, "Xunsheng." ”
Xun comes from a nomadic people in the distant desert.
Legend has it that they were full of loess there, but on both sides of the river they had abundant pastures, and in the summer they drove their cattle into the pastures and in the winter they moved south. The daily entertainment activity of the herdsmen grazing is to carry a Xun with them and blow wherever they go.
When Wang Mengning was young, he heard an old gentleman who came back from that place blow in Jiangnan.
Xun's voice is not as soft and ethereal as the orchestral silk bamboo in the Central Plains, and it has been baptized by wind and sand, and the pathos and melodiousness after precipitation are full.
Just like the sound of Xun at this moment, there is a faint hint of desolation, and every tune is telling an ancient story.
Wang Mengning was attracted by the sound of Xun, and unconsciously raised her feet and walked into the wine shop.
There are not many people in the liquor store, probably because everyone is full of wine and food now, and all their minds are on the stalls outside.
This is also just right, An Mengningle's leisure.
The carved wooden planks inside are divided into small compartments one by one.
It's just Xun's performance, and you don't need to focus your eyes on the performers, you just need to listen.
The compartment is semi-closed, Wang Mengning walked into one of the rooms, asked for a small jar of their specialty wine, and when the red liquid was poured into the translucent glass cup, Wang Mengning couldn't wait to take a small sip, smacking her lips and saying, "Wow, grape wine glow-in-the-dark glass!" ”
"Miss Wang is brilliant." In the next compartment, a lazy voice was heard.
Wang Mengning squinted his eyes and looked through the carvings, and he could only see that it was a woman, looking at the partition behind her, sitting lazily.
Who else is this voice besides Red Sleeves?
She didn't wear her usual red clothes today, and she was dressed in white, and her hair was pulled into a bun style that Wang Mengning had never seen before, which made her look more beautiful and temperamental.
"The red-sleeved girl is so Yaxing, but although this wine is good, it's better to drink less." Wang Mengning could smell her wine through the wooden board, and it was estimated that she had drunk a lot.
Red Sleeves smiled nonchalantly, "Miss Wang doesn't know, it's not sad to drink and hurt your body." ”
Her tone was full of countless melancholy and desolation.
Wang Mengning thought about it and understood, the person who could make her so worried was probably the man who drank in the Qinglou that day, right?
"Why don't you go to him?"
Red Sleeves sighed and shook his head helplessly, "Miss Wang, there are too many helpless things to do, and they can't be solved by going to him with a word." ”
Wang Mengning didn't seem to understand it, probably saying that the relationship between her and him was not as simple as she imagined......
"Girl with red sleeves, there is something I still have to take the liberty of asking. You...... Did you follow me to the capital? ”
It's not that Wang Mengning is narcissistic, and she thinks others are so rare about her. And Red Sleeves approached her from the beginning with an impure purpose, but what is puzzling is that she did not show any bad motives to Wang Mengning.
Red Sleeves put down the wine jar, "Sort of, Miss Wang is half right, I do have ulterior motives for approaching you, but please rest assured Miss Wang, Red Sleeves has been frank and unrestrained all his life, and he has no ill will towards you." ”
Wang Meng froze, and sure enough, it was the same as she thought, since there was no malice, then she was at ease. After all, she hasn't lived long enough, and she doesn't want to bury this little life in the hands of someone who is inexplicably close to her.
"That'...... Red-sleeved girl, you...... What is the purpose of approaching me? ”
"It's not time yet, so I'm sorry I can't confess everything to you. But Miss Wang, please believe that the people who approach you in the future, whether they are men or women, are not bad people. "It's just that they're in different positions.
"Yo, when will the red-sleeved girl still tell fortunes, how do you know that someone will approach me in the future?"
Even if Red Sleeves doesn't say it, Wang Mengning has always believed that everyone who interacts with her is not a bad person. It is precisely because of this that Wang Mengning has been very popular since she was a child, and she has also made many good friends of all kinds.
Red Sleeves smiled, "Miss Wang said that she laughed, Red Sleeves is just a dusty woman, how can she be a gown." "It's just that she accidentally knows more than she does.
"However, when it comes to fortune telling, Miss Wang can go to the end of Jia City to find the god of rivers and lakes to calculate a hexagram, it is said that he is very accurate in his fortune telling."
Wang Mengning had already heard about the monk who told the hexagram, she patted the peanut crumbs on her hand, "Anyway, if you are idle, you are idle, it is better to follow what you said, go to him and count a hexagram, do you want to go with the girl in red sleeves?" ”
Redsleeves shook his head, "I'm not going." "Everything that should be calculated has been calculated, even if it is calculated again, it will still be the same result, so why remind yourself and torture yourself in this way every time......
