Chapter 22 The thrush still needs a snail
The tears that Gu Siniang had just stopped flowed out again, "Wow, wow, wow........"
She boasted that she was also a beautiful little beauty with a symbol, but the little beauty's eyebrows were gone, bare, and she looked funny. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"How do I remember hearing the seventh aunt in the village when I was a child, that if the eyebrows were burned by the fire, they might not grow any longer." Gu Dazhuang's face was a little worried, but he was afraid that Gu Siniang would be sad, so he comforted, "Good Siniang, don't be afraid, even if you have no eyebrows in your life, your father will not dislike you for being ugly." ”
He really wanted to comfort his daughter, but when the words came out of his mouth, the taste changed, Gu Siniang felt that her little heart was hit by the heart, and her big eyes were red from crying, as if she had been greatly wronged.
Seeing this, Ma also knew that there was nothing big in the house, so he turned around and went out, and there were three girls outside the door, Gu Yuanniang, Gu Erniang, and Gu Sanniang, and even Gu Cuihua and Gu Sizhuang rushed over when they heard the sound, and they all gathered around the door, poking their heads out and looking inside.
"Grandma, what's wrong with Siniang?" Gu Yuanniang looked at Ma Shi cautiously, and asked tremblingly.
"What are you doing at the door, what are you going to do. It's nothing, how can a child not cry. Ma waved his hand impatiently.
Everyone shrunk their necks when they saw this, Ma's majesty in the Gu family was not fake, and her words were also very weighty, saying that it was okay was really fine, and soon the smoke dispersed.
Ma Shi was about to step out of the door with one foot and turned his head to look at Gu Dazhuang who was standing in the house, "Dazhuang, come to my house, my mother has something to tell you." ”
"Eh, let's go." Gu Dazhuang was not worried about Siniang, and Chen said to him when he saw this, "You go with your mother first, Siniang has me." Don't worry, it's fine. ”
Gu Dazhuang nodded, and walked out step by step.
Only Chen and Gu Siniang, who were crying in Chen's arms, were left in the house.
"I don't want to see people, it's ugly."
"Eyebrows grow in a few days, don't listen to your father's nonsense. My mother was also burned by the flames when she was a child, don't you see how well she grows now? Chen reached out and patted her on the back gently, and said softly in a drizzle-like voice.
Gu Siniang felt a little better, but she was still a little unsure, "Is it true?" ”
"Of course it's true, doesn't Siniang believe in Niang?" Chen looked at her pretending to be very sad, and wiped the corners of her eyes, "Siniang doesn't trust her mother, and her mother is very sad." ”
"No, no, I believe mother." Although Gu Siniang saw that there were no tears in the corners of Chen's eyes, she still felt very useful for the comfort of her mother.
"Good girl." Seeing that she was finally in a better mood, Chen smiled and said, "Then let's go out to eat, okay?" ”
Being delayed by Gu Siniang like this, Chen had to stop halfway through the meal, but at this moment, the smell of food was already wafting outside, presumably Ma continued to do it.
Gu Siniang touched her stomach and just wanted to say something good, but when she thought of her eyebrows, she still shook her head, "I don't eat, I'm not hungry." ”
Chen reached out and pinched her little face, helpless and funny, "I'm so young, and I don't know where I learned it, so I know Aimei." ”
Having said this, she got up, threw down the sentence and waited, and then turned and went out the door, and when she came back there was a small thing in her hand that she had never seen before, and the thickness of her fingers, about five inches long.
Gu Siniang had already stopped her tears at this moment, and asked in a hoarse voice, "What is this?" ”
"This is the elixir that will save your life." Chen was amused, sat down on the edge of the bed, reached out and poured a small cup of water, took the little thing and dipped it lightly in the water, and then said, "Close your eyes." ”
Gu Siniang obediently closed her eyes, Chen gently lifted her chin with one hand, and gently hooked her face a few times with the other hand, "Okay, you can open your eyes." ”
Gu Siniang had already guessed that Chen was giving her a thrush, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw a bronze mirror in front of her, the mirror was blurry, but she could still see the facial features of the girl in the mirror from inside, the curved willow eyebrows, the shape was very good-looking, and the face was suddenly much more energetic.
The corners of Gu Siniang's mouth couldn't help but crack, "Mother, what kind of good thing are you?" ”
"Luo Zidai. A material for thrushes. ”
Gu Siniang only cared about admiring her good-looking eyebrows, and didn't notice that when Chen Shi said the three words Luo Zidai again, her eyes were obviously dark, as if she had evoked something sad.
"Mother, Siniang wants to see it." Gu Siniang lay on Chen's arm, lying coquettishly.
Chen was helpless, and put the little snail Dai in her hand, "You pay attention carefully, it's just such a small piece in total, this thing is expensive." ”
Gu Siniang nodded busily, holding it in her hand and looking left and right, she remembered that Luozidai should be something invented by Persia during the Sui Dynasty, and it was worth a lot of money at that time.
Chen's stick is extremely delicately made, and the Dai strip is also wrapped with a layer of silver plating, making the pattern of a conch, and the tail of the Dai strip is inlaid with a delicate ruby.
The workmanship is very elegant, and at a glance you know that it is not a bargain, to be honest, the design of this snail Dai is already very similar to the eyebrow pencil of later generations, holding it in your hand, convenient and practical.
"Mother, where did you come from?" Gu Siniang asked as she handed the things back to the Chen family, their Gu family didn't look like a family that could afford such a thing.
"A friend sent it." Chen's eyes darkened, put the thing in his arms, stood up and said, "Okay, it's not too early, let's go out to eat." ”
Gu Siniang wanted to ask a few more words, but it can be seen that the Chen family looked reluctant to say any more, so she had to keep her mouth shut, and couldn't help but think, could this be a gift from a lover of her mother when she was young?
Thinking like this, her automatic brain made up a big play, and then sighed with some emotion, it seems that her mother is also a woman with a story. Chen walked to the door, and when he turned around and saw her bitter and hateful appearance, he said puzzledly, "What do you want?" Can't eat? ”
"Nothing, nothing, here it is." Gu Siniang put on her shoes as she said and ran over.
Because of the new eyebrows, Gu Siniang's good mood returned, but in the end, she had just cried, and her face was a little unbearable, and her face turned red all of a sudden when she saw everyone looking at her.
"Look, our Siniang also knows how to be shy. It's not easy. ”
Gu Sizhuang was the first to speak, and the words he said made Gu Siniang choke, then raised his head and glared at him, and said angrily, "Fourth uncle, you will bully people, and I won't be good with you in the future." ”
"Ah, Siniang, your eyebrows are so good-looking." Gu Sanniang saw her changes at a glance, jumped down from the stool, put a face in front of her eyes, and looked up and down, "It's thin and long, it's really as beautiful as the beauty in the painting." ”
"Really?" Originally, Gu Sanniang looked at her like this, Gu Siniang was still a little weak-hearted, for fear of being found out that her eyebrows were painted, but she didn't expect to get Sanniang's praise, and she suddenly had confidence, her little face raised, and she said beautifully, "Hehe, this is what my mother painted for me, and I painted it with Luozidai." ”
Hearing this, Gu Dazhuang at the table glanced at Chen beside him, Chen staggered his eyes awkwardly, and looked down at the tips of his shoes.
