Chapter 3: Chance Encounter in the Mountains (1)
The next day, after eating, Mrs. Bai sent away Dr. Bai and handed over a purple purse to her daughter and Lin Ruoran, Bai Ruxue took it and couldn't wait to loosen the strap of the purse and reach into her hand, her face was full of youth, and she grimaced at Lin Ruoran and said silently: "A lot of gold." Mrs. Bai couldn't help but laugh when she looked at her daughter's wealth fan www.biquge.info and couldn't help but sigh: "Okay, this time you go out to buy some herbs." Mrs. Bai took out a piece of paper from the sleeve of her dress, Bai Ruxue took it and glanced at it and handed it to Lin Ruoran on the side.
Lin Ruoran wore a sky blue jacket today, and the lower body was a moonflower skirt with the same color embroidered orchid blooming pattern, her hair was combed into a double flat bun, and her immature little face was picturesque, and she would be a beauty in the city when she grew up.
Madame Bai said a few words to Lin Ruoran in a serious voice, and then told the two of them to remember to go home before dark.
Bai Ruxue is a twelve-year-old girl, her posture has grown into a small and graceful figure, her upper body is wearing a jacket with plum blossom makeup, and her lower body is a silk skirt with a budding lily picture, and her head is combed with a flying fairy bun, and her natural beauty has attracted the attention of many people on the street.
Bai Ruxue led Lin Ruoran to walk to a farmhouse, which was a coachman business, and the farmer's surname was Li, known as Li Wanli, and it is said that he walked tens of thousands of miles when he was young and got his name.
The carriage was clean and spacious, which could accommodate five or six people to sit down, and after the two of them got on the car, they found that there was a middle-aged man sitting on the side of the car and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Lin Ruoran's face was full of surprise and did not recover until she got into the carriage, she was nervous for the first time after coming to this other world, she heard the sound of awkward mouth, influenced by thousands of years of culture, it was difficult to get used to it for a while.
"Sister Bai," and when the two of them sat in the carriage, Lin Ruoran pulled the sleeves of her white clothes, attached her head to her ear and said, "Is this Li Wanli a foreigner?"
Bai Ruxue shook her head at her, took Lin Ruoran's hand and said, "No, I heard from others that he had an accident a few years ago and lost a memory, and he survived elsewhere for ten years before he came back to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors." ”
A few more people got into the car one after another, and the two stopped whispering. When there were six people in the carriage, the carriage moved slowly, and the large tree like a commander with a bare pole on the side of the road fell backwards quickly.
Half an hour later, came to the lively and noisy street market, the people in the car got off and went their separate ways, Bai Ruxue said to Li Wanli, "Uncle Li, Shen Shichu gathered under the big tree in Taibai Building"
Li Wanli said to her, "Yes, the girl of the Bai family must be on time" He glanced at Lin Ruoran, his puzzled eyes were fleeting, he turned around and got into the carriage and turned around.
Lin Ruoran had a certain suspicion of Li Wanli's skills, and he gave people a sense of déjà vu, which made her give him a bold guess in her heart: he might be an immortal cultivator.
Lin Ruoran held the arm that was as white as snow, walked side by side on the street, looking at the busy traffic and pedestrians coming and going, approaching the New Year's Day, the smell of the New Year became stronger and stronger, Lin Ruoran could even feel the breath of freedom and happiness on everyone's face from the air.
On both sides of the street, there are many shops with red walls and glazed tiles, and the rows are one after another.
Lin Ruoran felt with great interest the street market, which was completely different from the current world, and looked up at the big characters on the plaque on the shop with the pen walking dragon and snake, which were full of ancient meaning, and would stop for a moment every time he went to a place. Bai Ruxue waited for the side with a good temper, her eyes were gentle, and she looked like a doting sister of her soul.
"Pinyu Zhai" Lin Ruoran muttered softly, it was actually a pastry shop, Bai Ruxue raised her head when she heard her voice, and pulled Lin Ruoran into the shop, after entering the shop, you can smell all kinds of fragrant breath, and what catches your eye is a drawer of pastries, exquisite and exquisite, with exquisite patterns.
There was a guy about ten years old in the shop, who was boringly cleaning your table, and when he saw two little girls in silk entering the door, he immediately greeted him with a smile on his face.
"Two young ladies, what kind of cake do you want, this shop is the best dim sum shop in town, there are delicious osmanthus cakes, delicious cheese cakes, freshly out of the cage rose walnut crisp......" The shopkeeper Baliso reported a string of pastries.
Lin Ruoran smiled shyly at the shopkeeper, then pulled the sleeves of Bai Ruxue's coat, and whispered, "Sister, let's go to the pharmacy first!" Come back in a while."
Bai Ruxue showed a sweet smile to the shopkeeper, pulled Lin Ruoran to the drawer where the pastries were placed, and said in a coaxing tone of children, "What kind of pastries does my sister like to eat, don't be polite to my sister today, it's rare that my sister is generous today, but I want to go back to treat you in the future" and then lowered his voice and said, "We brought a lot of silver taels today, let's try it!" ”
"Okay, when my sister is developed, I will definitely report to my sister, so that my sister will be happy! Thank you so much, sister, sister, I have a blessed mouth today."
Bai Ruxue scratched her nose and said, "What a clever tongue." ”
Bai Ruxue said to the shopkeeper: "Bring us some rose-flavored and osmanthus-flavored pastries!" He casually pointed to a drawer of pastries engraved with flower and plant patterns, and said, "Let's wrap some of this flavor too."
The guy wrapped it neatly and handed it to Bai Ruxue, who took out some silver from her purse and paid it to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper said with a smile on his face, "The two young ladies walk slowly"
Bai Ruoxue and Lin Ruoran walked out of the door side by side, but unexpectedly reached out and lifted the curtain and collided with a person who came in in a hurry, and the snack in his hand fell to the ground and shattered unexpectedly.
It was a scholar about ten years old who came in, and when he heard the scream, he couldn't help but look at the source of the sound, and saw that it was two teenage girls staring at him with a pair of eyes, and the scholar couldn't help but smile embarrassedly, and waved at the two of them.
Then a weak-crowned scholar came in dressed in a white brocade robe, his hair was tied up with a hairpin, his face was like a crown of jade, his sword eyebrows were starry, and he looked like a polite boy, and when he saw the broken pastries, he asked the scholar, "What's going on?" ”
The scholar stepped forward and said to the man in brocade clothes: "Childe, it was the villain who recklessly bumped into the two young ladies, causing the pastry to fall to the ground and scattering it all over the ground, please punish Childe."
Lin Ruoran was surprised by the scholar's honesty, and his impression of the ancients increased immediately, which was in stark contrast to the modern people who were as cunning as foxes.
Lin Ruoran didn't pay attention to the little episode of the pastry incident, and finally got several kinds of pastries after losing them, satisfying his appetite for the past few days.
Looking around for an hour, Lin Ruoran was pleasantly surprised to find that there were many kinds of green vegetables here, all of which were large and dark green, and they were extremely vibrant.
Lin Ruoran finally knew that this was a parallel world equivalent to the Ming Dynasty but completely different, with men superior to women and a feudal society where imperial power was supreme. This country is the state of Wu, the surname of the country is Xiao, located in the vast grassland, surrounded by mountains, the mountains are dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Yue country, the Wei country is three-legged.
