Chapter 35: The Prophet of the Temple Fair (1)
Qiao'er wiped away her tears and choked up: "This matter is a long story, that day my sister sent Sister Xiaohong to take the risk to inform me that I must not go into the city, because I am worried that I will live here for a long time, in case my identity is exposed, it will cause inconvenience to my grandmother, just a few days ago, Uncle Fu asked Brother Ban'er to be a companion, and Brother Ban'er pushed me to go, so I changed into men's clothes. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info I'm also about to ask my sister, why did you come here, is our family rehabilitated? ”
Qingping smiled bitterly: "Where is it so easy to rehabilitate, sister, it's not that I don't know about the group of dignitaries and nobles in the city, when you are good, they treat you as a relative, once you are in trouble, you have already cleared up the relationship, and you can't beat the eight poles." What's more, the upper authorities have the intention to suppress our family, who dares to come forward and say a good word for us. In all fairness, is the eldest master and our second master really unforgivable? In the past, there were really only a few masters of our family who relied on power to make fortune in the city? It's just an excuse for them to deal with. Speaking of which, I also entrusted the girl's blessing, and I endured it to this day, but fortunately the lady in this house lacked a maid, so she bought me from the street, but I didn't expect to see the girl on the first day of coming, and it can be regarded as God's eyes, so that our master and servant can be reunited. As he spoke, he burst into tears again.
Qiao'er also sighed, and said, "Then will my sister live in this mansion in the future?" If that's the case, it's good for me to come over every day to talk to my sister, since Sister Xiaohong left that day, I haven't seen anyone else, fortunately, I can see my sister again, I have a lot to say, but it's inconvenient at the moment, so after a few days, my sister is familiar with here, and we'll talk slowly. ”
Qing Ping burst into tears and laughed, took Sister Qiao's hand and said, "I see that my sister is doing well now, and my heart is finally half relieved." It's not too early, Uncle Fu is still waiting for you over there, you go quickly, don't let him be suspicious. I'm going too, and when my sister comes tomorrow, remember to ask someone to talk to me again. ”
Qiao'er hurriedly said that he remembered, and then he came out from behind the rockery. Zhou Fuxiang and Ban'er waited for a long time, and were waiting for someone to find them, but they were hurriedly stopped by Ban'er, and Qiao'er had already come over while talking, Zhou Fuxiang smiled and said, "Why have you been there for so long?" ”
Qiao'er said: "I just saw the sisters in your house passing, and I was afraid that it would be inconvenient, so I waited for a while." Where is Yanqing going now? ”
Zhou Fuxiang said: "Today I was going to take out the books from the old year to review, but Ban'er said that you are sick, and I have just been busy for a few days before resting, so I will wait for Ming'er to talk about it." On the 28th, it is commonly said to be the birthday of the Holy Emperor of Dongyue Qitian, there is a Dongyue temple meeting on the street, and there are traders selling goods, so we might as well catch a temple fair on that day. ”
Ban'er and Qiao'er didn't dare to answer after hearing it, one Sister Qiao'er was worried about revealing her identity, and the other was that Ban'er was afraid that there would be many people on the street, and it was always bad to have a bump. Glancing at each other, Ban'er said: "So, let's make a plan when we get to that day, I still sent Brother Qiao to Uncle in the past two days, and it is important to study first." ”
Zhou Fuxiang smiled and said that it was very good, because it was late in the evening, Ban'er and Qiao'er left home. The two walked on the road, Qiao'er was worried about Qingping's life in the Zhou Mansion, and she was always absent-minded, and Ban'er didn't seem to hear her when she spoke. Ban'er was helpless, so she had to pull her and said, "What do you think, so distracted?" You also heard what Uncle Fu said just now, I want to ask you what you mean, will you go or not on that day? ”
Qiao'er was stunned for a moment before she realized what he was asking, and hurriedly said: "It's better not to go, my brother also understands my inconvenience, but I'm not afraid of being recognized, but I'm afraid of causing trouble for my grandmother and brother." If it involves you, it will be hard to escape the blame. ”
Ban'er smiled and touched her net towel and said, "What a fool, you have become like this, who can recognize you." But I want to take you out, for nothing else, but to let you go back and see your mother's grave, as you worry about every day. ”
Qiao'er was moved for a moment, pursed her lips and smiled lowly. As he was talking, he didn't watch out for a person running recklessly behind him, and suddenly jumped behind the two of them, put his arms on the shoulders of Ban'er and Qiao'er, and panted and said, "Brother Ban'er, I can be regarded as seeing you." ”
Qiao'er and Ban'er were startled, Ban'er hurriedly looked back, and saw that it was Li Shun, the neighbor next door, who hurriedly pulled him over from Qiao'er, and asked with a reluctant smile: "Where did Brother Shun come from, he was in such a hurry." ”
Li Shun scratched his head and smiled: "I just came back from the field and went to plant cucumbers with Auntie and Daddy." I didn't go to the river to pick up water, I splashed all over my body, and my mother asked me to come back and change my clothes, don't let me freeze. ”
Ban'er looked down when he heard this, and sure enough, he saw Li Shun wet most of the green cloth shirt, and said with a smile: "You are still so frizzy, and others don't make it look like you when they lift water, I don't know if you think you swim out of the water." ”
Li Shunhan laughed a few times, glanced at Qiao'er, who had half turned around, and pounded Ban'er's arm and said, "Who is this, why haven't I seen it." ”
Ban'er coughed dryly and covered up: "He is my uncle's brother, his name is Tianqiao, he has only been here for a short time, you just haven't seen it." ”
Li Shun sighed, and asked, "So, did the girl I saw from your house before also from your uncle's family, why didn't I see her when I passed by your door yesterday?" ”
Ban'er sneered: "That is his sister in the family, just because his aunt and uncle are worried, he sent someone to take over the house, and it just so happens that our family is also very busy these days, so I took her brother to help for a while." ”
Li Shun smiled, poked his head to see what Qiao'er looked like, and saw that he had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and his body was thin, so he blurted out unconsciously: "It's really a sister and brother, and they don't even look the same." ”
Qiao'er surprised him, and he also glanced up at Li Shun, only to see that he had a bright face, black eyes like ink, and eyebrows and sideburns, although he was not as good as Ban'er and Zhou Fuxiang, but he was also a clever young man. On the back of his head, he combed a big braid, wrapped it around his neck, and put it behind his back. He wore a bleached silk machine gown, Yuan-colored silk pants, fish-white cloth socks, and Yuan-inlaid thin-soled shoes. It's just that looking at Mian Sheng, I can't remember where he saw him, but I don't know that Li Shun has seen it once through the crack in the door.
Seeing Qiao'er looking at him, the man looked at him somehow, and continued to scratch his head and smile: "That...... I'm Li Shun, who lives next door to Brother Ban'er, and I don't know how old Tianqiao is, so just call me Shunzi. ”
Qiao'er saw that although his demeanor was rough, it was rare that his heart was simple, and he chuckled and said, "I am twelve years old this year." ”
Li Shun said: "That's great, I'm a year older than you." ”
Qiao'er said: "Then, in the future, I will call you Brother Shunzi." ”
Li Shun was so happy that he danced, patted Ban'er's shoulder, and wanted to pat Qiao'er's shoulder, fortunately Qiao'er was alert and hurriedly avoided it first, Li Shun was not angry when he saw the failure, and just said to Ban'er: "Your younger brother is really likable, Brother Ban'er has taken him to where these two days, Ming'er and I will follow you." ”
With that, he pulled Qiao'er and Ban'er to go home. Qiao'er couldn't cry or laugh, so she had to walk all the way silently, listening to him and Ban'er talk about things in Zhuangzi. When she returned home, Qiao'er hid everything about Qingping, so she told her grandmother what Zhou Fuxiang said one by one, and took out the gold and silver bills and rulers that Mrs. Zhou had rewarded a few days ago, and handed them all to her grandmother to put away, and then went to the kitchen to cook with Qing'er without mentioning it.
