Chapter Twenty-Seven: Catch, Old, and Male
When I went back to the Southern Song Dynasty from the bronze mirror, I had no distractions. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 But at the critical moment, I suddenly thought that I hadn't eaten for a long time, and I suddenly fell into a daze.
So when I wore it back to the Southern Song Dynasty, I described it like this: holding a greasy chicken leg, gnawing hard, and what is even more strange is that my eyes are still tightly closed, as if I want to die with it.
I struggled to chew on my mouthful of chicken thighs as I looked at the man next to me who was talking to me.
He has a young face, his hair has been wrapped in a turban, his eyebrows are clear, his lips are red and his teeth are white, and his face is like Fu powder.
I heard him call me "Sister Zhu" again, could it be that this little fresh meat is my younger brother? I rolled my eyes in disbelief.
He said crisply: "Sister Zhu, you are still having breakfast at such a late hour, do you know what we are going to do today?" ”
I swallowed the chicken thigh in my mouth and said, "What are you going to do?" ”
He stood up, walked quickly to the door and looked at it, and then said, "Brother, I have come all the way to report to you." After a pause, he lowered his voice and said: "Isn't there a list outside the government today, my father has already spoken, and my eldest brother and I will go to the list to catch his son-in-law." ”
"What...... What the? "I didn't figure it out at once.
He walked up to me with some eagerness and said, "I have said it so clearly, Daddy and I will go to catch you, one, one, old, father, back, come!" ”
The chicken leg in his hand rolled to the ground at once. Sure enough, leftover women will be urged to marry no matter which dynasty they are in.
It's just that this way of urging marriage is also a little peculiar. Can such a thing as "husband" be "caught"? "Catch" one back and keep it at home?
Just thinking about it, he said again: "Sister Zhu, why aren't you in a hurry at all?" I've brought it, and my eldest brother will be looking for me later, so I'll have to get ready now. With that, he hurried out the door.
I steadied myself and shouted at the top of my voice, "Yueying! Yueying, hurry up! ”
A voice answered from the attic, followed by hurried footsteps, and I turned my head to see Tsukiei winding down the guardrail of the wooden staircase.
Then I noticed where I was, a small wooden building, with a woman's boudoir on top and a small hall below, and a side door leading to a room, but I don't know what it was for.
Yueying had already come to me, breathing a little short, and said, "Zhu Niang, the moon reflection above has not been sorted out yet, what do you have to tell if Zhu Niang shouted that Yue Ying came down?" ”
This time is not like the last time, this time Moon Ying is not a stranger to me, but the person I know most here.
I smiled and said, "Have you eaten?" ”
"Eat." She looked slightly surprised.
I got up and walked up to the attic and said, "I'm going out later, what do you think I'm going to wear?" ”
She happily followed behind me and said, "There are clothes in the cupboard, not to mention, Zhu Niang is already beautiful, she looks good in everything, don't worry." ”
I turned around, hooked my fingers at her, and whispered, "Yueying, can you go and get me a set of men's clothes." ”
She looked at me with wide eyes and wondered, "What does Zhu Niang want a man's clothes for?" ”
I lamented: "Daddy today with my eldest brother and younger brother to catch my son-in-law, I have to keep an eye on them, it's not good for a daughter's family to be crowded in the middle of a bunch of men watching the list, maybe it will make people laugh, thinking that I am going to 'catch' my husband in person." ”
She twisted her handkerchief, blushed to herself, and said, "Is Zhu Niang going to Aunt Xiang secretly?" ”
My hand holding the guardrail slipped, and I was frightened for a while, and said reservedly: "That's exactly what I mean." ”
Although I must marry Lan Sheng in this time and space, when I was in the mirror world, Zhu Shuzhen reminded me that everything is variable, if I didn't stop them and let them go, in case they really brought me a husband back, and that husband was not Lan Sheng, wouldn't the problem become troublesome?
And Yueying didn't know at this time that I was going to marry the Lan family in the future, so she asked something that surprised me. My real purpose is still different, and she said okay.
She went upstairs happily and said, "Zhu Niang forgot? There were originally two sets of men's clothes in this cupboard, and Zhu Niang bought them with Yueying a few years ago. ”
I stroked my forehead and said, "That's very good." ”
Because I just gnawed on the chicken legs, there was a little oil stain on the side of my mouth. Yueying brought a pot of hot soup, took a handkerchief, and washed my cheeks again.
After wiping my face, I sat down in front of the bronze mirror, which was still the same one I had seen before. Yueying helped me remove the jade bell and said, "The earlobes should be covered with a thicker powder, so that the ear piercings can be covered." ”
Then she looked at my face carefully, frowned, and said, "How much thought did Zhu Niang put into those poems last night?" When I woke up today, my eyes were a little swollen. ”
How do I know how hard I was last night? I had to slap at her and said, "It's not too swollen, right?" ”
"Hmm." She pursed the corners of her lips and reached for some of the bottles and jars resting on the dressing table.
I didn't know what those things were, so she smeared them all over my face with her slender hands.
After helping me brush my face, Yueying tied up my hair with a jade comb, and then took out a plain bandana and wrapped it around my hair.
I took a picture of the bronze mirror, and Yueying quipped, "Don't dare to ask Gongzi's surname?" Geometry of youth? Have you ever been married? Little lady I ......"
I glanced at her and said, "The little lady has a lot to ask." I couldn't help but laugh again.
She also ate and laughed, went to the cupboard to get clothes, and asked me, "Do you want to wear the pink blue one, or the white one?" ”
The white color seemed too eye-catching, and after thinking about it, I replied, "Take the pink blue one." ”
With the help of Yueying, I finally got my clothes neatly dressed. This is not because my self-care ability is too poor, but because there are too many ribbons on the pink blue veil, and I really don't know how to tie it.
As he was leaving, he saw a folding fan on the table beside him, so he picked it up and put it in the wide sleeves of his shirt.
As soon as she stepped to the door, Yue Ying told behind her: "Zhu Niang's eyes should be more careful, and an aunt with good looks will come back." ”
The corners of my mouth twitched, but I still replied to her gently, "Don't worry, I'll pay close attention." ”
Outside the wooden building is a good scenery, not far away a pear tree, the leaves have been flourishing, next to the pear tree is a begonia, the flowers are burning. There are also many flowers and plants planted in the surrounding area, and there are many kinds of flowers.
I was admiring it, and suddenly I remembered something important.
I've never been to this courtyard, and there is a beautiful labyrinth in front of me, how can I find my eldest brother and brother?
After weighing it again, I repeated my old tricks, propped my forehead, and shouted into the attic: "Yueying, my head is a little dizzy. ”
Alas, it really hurts her to be such a lady as me.
Good evening ------~O(∩_∩)O~-------
