Chapter 160: Splash

"Here we are."

The name of Xiangfang Building is not very good, and the place is not very good.

Red walls and green tiles, but very tacky.

There is a 'building' word in the name, in fact, where is the building, the door face is not big, especially compared to the Chunxi Restaurant in the south, it is completely the difference between the tiger and the ant, the difference is too far, the doors and windows are mottled, it is very unclean at a glance, the gate is empty, and there is not even a carriage.

Hongchen stopped the car, came down and looked around, and the pedestrians around them glanced at them in surprise.

Luo Niang leaned over and whispered: "The dim sum sold here is very expensive, and it is unpalatable, the taste is very strange, good dim sum is not made into sweet, but it is made into bitterness, and last month it even went to the yamen, it seems that someone said that their dim sum is poisonous, and several guests who eat dim sum died, but the yamen went to check, and the dim sum was not eaten except for the unpalatable, there were no other toxins, so this dim sum shop was not seized." ”

"I'm just weird...... Why can the door still be opened? ”

Hongchen's face showed a little surprise.

In the capital, or on Suzaku Street, such a good location, once the business is not good, it is easy for people to run away, there are many dignitaries and dignitaries waiting for the store, like this kind of door can be crowded, and even provoke the official shop, should have closed its doors a long time ago.

“…… Maybe the queen loves to eat? ”

Xiao Yan shrugged.

Red:......

Well, this reason is the most powerful, what the queen likes to eat, even if it can really poison people and animals together, it doesn't matter.

Thinking about these useless, I bought something and left.

Hongchen led Luo Niang and a few of them into the door. Slowly pacing in, until the window was bright and clean, there was no one in front of the counter, only an old yellow dog who was bored and lazy squatting on the ground.

Not only were there no guests in the house, but there were no runners.

On the wall next to the counter is a red paper with black letters, indicating the prices of various sweets.

It's not sold according to the plate, nor is it sold according to the number of catties, people sell it directly by the table.

a table for one tael of silver, and three taels of silver. and five taels of silver. The more expensive ones are even ten taels, fifteen taels, and even one hundred taels and five hundred taels.

To know. Dim sum is different from alcoholic beverages. Wine and vegetables with meat and vegetables with wine. If you buy a large table and eat more than a dozen people, it is not impossible to eat three, two, five, two. But dim sum, most of them are two or three friends, want a pot of tea, taste carefully, because of the sugar, a little more expensive, and then exquisite, luxurious packaging, two or three taels of silver, at most five taels of silver, even as a tribute is absolutely enough.

Look at their tables, they are all small tables that can seat up to four people.

Do you want to use a sack for those fifteen taels of snacks?

As for the five hundred taels, they were completely unimaginable.

Hongchen: "......"

Luo Niang looked around, first found a table by the window to clean up, let Hongchen sit down, and then did it herself, took out her own snacks from the car, put them neatly for her, and then went out with Xiao Yan to inquire about the owner of Xiangfang Building.

It's a good teahouse, and the dim sum is also expensive, but there is no one to greet the guests, so weird, I really don't know what to say.

Hongchen ate the snacks he brought, and he was almost finished, Xiao Yan and Luo Niang turned around three times, but still no one came.

"Miss, I went left and right to ask, and those shopkeepers didn't know anything, and they ...... The eyes are strange. ”

Luo Niang frowned, and when she thought of the way those shopkeepers looked at her, she felt that something was very inappropriate.

Just when Hongchen was about to go home, and when he turned around, he kicked a few times outside the door, and a little boy came in.

The young man looked thirteen or fourteen years old, with red lips and white teeth, very delicate, first rushed to the counter, grabbed a sign refusing to enter the store and hung it at the door, and then turned his head to look around, as soon as he saw Hongchen and them, he walked over quickly, first glanced at Luo Niang and Xiao Yan, hesitated slightly, and asked directly at Hongchen: "Hey, let me ask you, do you know how to do laundry and cook?" ”

Hongchen was stunned for a moment and nodded.

Iron Bull turned around and stared at the young man, a little hesitant.

His task is to keep all danger away from the county lord, but this little boy, with loose arm muscles, uneven breath, and weak body, not to mention him, even the county lord himself can press people down with one arm, as if there is no need to make a move.

The young man looked Hongchen up and down, his eyes were very picky at first, but when he saw the back, he was also a little satisfied.

"Then you reach out and show me."

Hongchen blinked, and really stretched out his hand.

Her hands are slender and slender, her fingers are full, shiny like jade, and her skin is snow-white, not to mention men, women can't help but want to hold them in the palm of their hands to play.

The young man swallowed his saliva when he saw it: "It's not like he can work, but it's pretty good-looking, forget it." ”

"That'...... Can you read and write? Have you ever attended a girls' school? ”

Hongchen smiled good-naturedly: "I studied for a few years, went to school in Yanshan Academy, and was recommended to the Beijing Women's School, but I didn't read much." ”

"Yan Shan? I haven't heard of it, but it's good to be literate. ”

Although the words were very contemptuous, the young man was obviously very surprised, as if he didn't expect that Hongchen had actually studied in the academy, and the academy was not necessarily more difficult than the women's academy, but a woman reading those serious academies always gave people a feeling that was a little unusual.

The young man was interested, his face was better, and he asked a lot of questions seriously, such as whether he had any experience in taking care of the elderly, whether he would serve people, whether he was willing to do rough work, how many relatives there were in the family, and so on.

Anyway, there is nothing to do now, this young man has a small mouth, so people don't have time to ask him if he is the shopkeeper, whether he is doing business or not, but looking at the skillful action of carrying the sign just now, even if he is not the shopkeeper, he is also a person in the store.

Let's see what he's going to do!

Could it be that there are some strange rules for doing business in the store?

It is unlikely, but since the queen mother personally ordered her to buy something, it is a bit strange, and it doesn't seem to be completely impossible, Hongchen simply answered his question slowly.

After asking for half an hour, the young man finally seemed satisfied. He raised his head again, looked at Hongchen's face, and squinted his eyes: "Let me ask you again, do you have a good temper?" ”

Hongchen was stunned for a moment, could it be that he came to their store to buy a snack, and he had to have a good temper?

"Ahem, it's an elder who asked me to come over......"

"Oh, don't care who asked you to come over, eight out of ten are persecuted by elders, just answer me. What nonsense. The boy pouted. A look of impatience.

Hongchen was speechless, sighed, and nodded: "No one should think that my temper is very bad." ”

The young man pursed his lips, lowered his head and stomped his feet: "That's not enough." ”

After speaking. He gritted his teeth. He jerked out a jar of black stuff from behind him. Splashed on Hongchen's face.

Xiao Yan and Luo Niang exclaimed in surprise.

Tie Niu pounced sideways and slapped the young man away.

Hongchen also hurriedly took a step back.

However, the boy's movements were too sudden. He didn't have half a bit of hostility on him, and Hongchen was not a master, even if he retreated in time and stretched out his hand to protect his head and face, his clothes were still stained with black.

Tie Niu's face turned red, and he reached out and grabbed the young man's neck and picked him up, the young man was obviously frightened, his face was pale, his eyes were frightened, and he made a burst of hissing sounds from his mouth, and rolled his eyes.

Hongchen looked at his clothes, looked up and said, "Let him go, it's just ink, it's not a dangerous thing." ”

Tie Niu hesitated, he believed that he was extraordinary, and he had always thought that he was an adult, although he was not a few years younger than him, he was treated as a child, and he couldn't do anything to bully the small.

Besides, the education he received could not have allowed him to harm the helpless common people.

"But ......"

But this guy dared to attack Miss!

If the young lady has three long and two short because of her own negligence, she doesn't have to be angry, he will pinch himself to death first.

Tie Niu let go of his hand hatefully, hugged his head and squatted in the corner, and said something: "Sir, I can't help you, I didn't take Miss seriously, it's useless Tie Niu, you hit me, punish me, I won't eat for the next month, I'll starve to death." ”

Hongchen: "......"

The young man escaped from the iron bull's hand, opened his mouth and inhaled heavily, inhaled for a long time, looked frightened, and fled with a crawling belt, knocked down three chairs, knocked a table crooked, and fell out of the door, breaking a large piece of his head.

Before he walked out, he turned back in horror.

Hongchen was stunned for a moment - the little boy ran too quickly, and the red rope around his neck fell out, revealing a small bronze brand, which she was extremely familiar with.

As soon as she started doing the tasks given by the Yujue space, there were several rewards in it that were such things.

It's just that this brand seems to be a little smaller, but the appearance is exactly the same, and the pattern is similar.

"This little brother, don't run away yet, I want to ask, why did you splash me?"

Instinctively, Hongchen shouted.

When the young man heard this, he ran faster, as if some poisonous snake and beast were chasing after him, which made Hongchen cry and laugh, but it was not easy to embarrass a child.

In the blink of an eye, he was gone.

A few people in the room looked at each other, what was this!

"Did we bring a change of clothes in the car?" Hongchen sighed.

"Oops, I forgot." Luo Niang and Xiao Yan looked at each other, both crying and mourning.

If they go out of the house, they must have big boxes and small boxes, and a lot of clothes, if they go to the banquet of the nobles in the capital, they must prepare a few sets of changes, they really want to play with the nobles, they may ride horses and hunt, or they may have to recite poetry in a literary way, you must have clothes and jewelry that can be matched.

But this time, Hongchen went out to see the queen, and went directly to the street to buy things from the queen's mother, what kind of clothes did he bring?

I can bring some snacks, and most of them are for the big belly of the iron bull.

Tie Niu's amount of food alone can reach three or five big men, and he is hungry fast, Luo Niang and the others are used to preparing some food for him when they go out.

"Then look at where there are ready-to-wear stores."

Fortunately, it was on Suzaku Street, and she came in a carriage, Hongchen put on a cloak, covered her clothes, went out, got into the carriage, and by the way, called the iron ox loaded with mushrooms to drive her car.

Luo Niang frowned, but decided to go back and find out who that kid was, it was so infuriating to dare to toss her own young lady like this!

After walking a few steps, there is a ready-to-wear shop not far away.

Luo Niang just walked over. I saw a group of people selling clothes and buying clothes inside, scattered in all directions, and thought they were secretly pointing fingers.

Hongchen and Xiao Yan also saw it from a distance, and they looked at each other unconsciously, what the hell is going on!

Luo Niang thought about it, didn't ask much, just chose a set of ordinary clothes, paid the silver, and asked her own lady to change into it.

"Miss, this Suzaku Street is really weird. Let's go back sooner. Niang Niang doesn't get angry about a little snack or something. ”

The queen mother is atmospheric and informal, not to mention Hongchen, but the people under her hands have not done a good job in this little thing. and they will not be punished. At best, there is no reward.

But the old man told her to come down. Hongchen is a junior, of course, I hope to help her old man do it properly.

"Don't worry, it's still early. Let's go around. Hongchen slowly changed his clothes, thoughtfully, "Hey, did you pay attention to the young man's purse just now?" ”

Luo Niang was stunned, and the appearance of the purse came out in her mind, and she was surprised, "What was that Su Ran just now, is it a girl named Su Ran?" The embroidery on her purse is made with the same stitch. ”

Hongchen nodded.

Although the stitches were uncommon, she hadn't seen them, but just because the stitches were the same, it didn't mean anything. Maybe the purses of the two people were bought in the same place.

No matter how spicy Su Ran's little girl is, she is also the cousin of the Yun family, and she can be called a qualified daughter, and that young man can splash a stranger with dirty things at will, and he is a lawless master.

Of course, there may also be some misunderstanding.

"Forget it, since something happened, sooner or later we can figure it out, let's go."

Anyway, they all came out, Hongchen was really not in a hurry at all, and he didn't get into the carriage, and walked on Suzaku Street unhurriedly.

Luo Niang and Xiao Yan are actually very curious.

This is Suzaku Street, and I often hear the students of the female school mention it on weekdays, saying that which noble son spent a lot of money here, bought rare treasures, bought the Oiran of the flower building, etc., many people mentioned it, and they couldn't help but bring out a little ambiguity.

They usually don't have the opportunity to come, it's rare to have a trip today, and they are not happy to go back early, and when they really get to Suzaku Street, they don't consciously feel its peculiar charm, just say Hongchen, even if they feel some **, greed, all kinds of emotions, which make people uncomfortable, but they still admit that there are benefits here.

It's full of stories, and there are many, many people with stories.

Those girls who live in the boudoir, if they can go around here twice in three days, they will definitely be able to grow a lot of knowledge, and they will be less likely to be deceived and deceived, and they will become less lonely and boring.

There are a lot of shops on the side of the street, and there are all kinds of them.

However, there are always fewer customers in the shops than in front of the stalls of the small street vendors, after all, the shops are regular, and the things they sell are also expensive, except for those rich merchants and nobles, who can often buy them?

On the contrary, those small stalls, even ordinary people with a little surplus money, inevitably have to buy a few things back.

There are many big shops on Suzaku Street, there are more small stalls of this kind, Hongchen glanced at it, there are those who sell antiques, there are those who sell flowers, birds, insects and fish, and there are those who sell rouge gouache and jewelry, scattered and scattered, very lively.

Hongchen walked all the way over, looked at it, and stopped in front of a small stall selling bits and pieces of antiques.

The small stall is very neatly cleaned, and there are a lot of jade jue, safe buckles, jade pendants, jade Buddhas, Guanyin, as well as inkstones, copper coins, all of which are gadgets, and the material is not good, Luo Niang knows at a glance that this thing is worthless.

Hongchen looked at it, and suddenly felt that there was a strange aura on one of the Ping An buckles, it should be said that it was very restrained, and that breath was in the Ping An buckle, but this thing could never be an antique, it should be a new product and old, it had not been contaminated with popularity, and no one came to revitalize it, it was a piece of dead jade, which was really strange.

It was the first time she'd seen something like that on something new.

Hongchen didn't feel soft, lowered his head to pick up the things, raised his head to look at them carefully, and asked, "Uncle, how much is this Ping An deduction?" ”

The stall owner who sold the goods was a middle-aged man, his eyes were blank, and he drank the wine in the wine pot for a while, with a mouth, and the smell of wine was suffocating, but when he looked at Hongchen carefully, his eyes lit up, and he said continuously: "Miss is really good eyesight, I am a good thing, it is something that the Jade Sage Princess of Chen Guo wears, in Vermilion Bird Street, that is, my grandson can get this good thing, change it to someone else, dream about it, you have to ask sincerely, five hundred taels." No two prices. ”

Hongchen: "......"

Luo Niang snorted and laughed: "Ahem, cough, cough, this thing of yours is made of ordinary green jade scraps, it is real jade, but the quality is not good, there are cracks, and the color is still black, such a small piece, you want five hundred taels, five taels is not worth it!" ”

"What did a maid say? You look dirty. That is no one has worn it for a long time, the so-called people raise jade jade to raise people, this jade is to be raised, wear it for a few years and then look at it. Guaranteed to be good. ”

Hongchen smiled - this uncle's eloquence is good. You can also say something. It's a bit of an insight.

Shaking his head, he sighed: "That's it, I wanted to do a good deed every day......"

Luo Niang hurriedly helped Hongchen to stand up.

The uncle was stunned. hurriedly said: "Miss, Miss, don't be in a hurry to leave, I see that you are a decent person......"

Hongchen raised his hand and shook it: "I advise uncle, it's better to stay away from your piece of safety." ”

With that, she turned and left.

The uncle screamed twice, Hongchen didn't even turn his head, and he was annoyed, grabbed the peace buckle up and down, played with it, frowned and said angrily: "What kind of person, I can't afford it, and I have to squeeze people." ”

He shook his head, simply clasped the little peace in his arms, and picked up the wine jug and drank while humming a small tune.

After taking a few sips, he suddenly felt that his chest was hot, and then he throbbed violently, and suddenly he couldn't breathe, so he fell down and rolled his eyes when he covered his chest.

Many pedestrians around were startled, and a few acquaintances who were also setting up stalls hurriedly rushed over.

"What's wrong? What's going on? ”

"Old wine, old wine, wake up."

"Find a doctor, right? Delivered to the hospital? ”

The big guy was in a mess, but no one went to help people, Hongchen and Luo Niang hadn't gone far yet, and they came to take a look when they heard the movement.

As soon as Hongchen saw him, he sighed, walked over and pulled out the peace buckle in his arms, and then brought the still depressed Tie Niu to his eyes, and whispered: "Lie down, give him the pill you usually take." ”

Tie Niu nodded, went over and slapped the man on the ground, and stuffed another medicine into the man's mouth.

The man immediately opened his eyes, but he was desperately inhaling with his mouth open, snorting, his face was bruised, Hongchen himself went over and gave him a slap in the chest, the man squirted out a mouthful of wine, coughed violently, coughed with tears on his face, raised his head with palpitations, and exhaled: "My mother, scared grandpa to death!" ”

He caught a glimpse of Hongchen, his face turned red, and he was silent.

Hongchen carried the peace buckle and handed it to him, the man unconsciously reached out to pick it up, and someone next to him coughed: "I advise you, it's better to stay away from it, if you play with it again, you will really die this time." ”

"Huh?"

This person's ears exploded, and he was startled, and immediately withdrew his hand, turned his head to look, and saw a young man in crimson clothes standing in the crowd, twenty-one or twelve years old, when he saw this person, he was startled: "Yan, Yan Gongzi?" ”

The young man frowned, turned his head and glanced at Hongchen: "Miss, this peace buckle is very dangerous, you better put it down." ”

Before Hongchen could speak, the stall owner on the opposite side took a few steps back in fright: "Am I being harmed by it?" What a dirty thing this is! ”

He looked at Hongchen again, and suddenly remembered what Hongchen had just said, and looked at her again in disbelief, "Miss asked me to stay away from Ping'an, don't you also see what's wrong with it?" ”

"Huh?"

Hearing him say this, the Yan Gongzi looked back at Hongchen, thought about it, grabbed a young man behind him, pulled it to his eyes, and said softly, "Are you talking about her?" ”

The young man nodded quickly, looked at Hongchen, grabbed Yan Gongzi's hand hard, and dragged him out desperately.

Yan Gongzi was a little surprised, and looked at Hongchen: "You ......"

"She can't do it, absolutely not, I just splashed her with a little ink, and I almost let her slaughter her, if it really happens, your family will not be turned upside down!"

As they spoke, the two of them had disappeared into the crowd.

Hongchen: "......"

Lao Jiu came back to his senses at this time, and looked regretful, "Ouch, ouch, I should say a few more words to Yan Gongzi!" Miss, this miss, you are really a living bodhisattva, you want to save me, what the hell is going on? ”

Hongchen put aside the doubts in his mind for a while, played with the safety buckle, shook his head and said: "I don't know why, there is a breath in your peace buckle, it is a mixed gas, which should contain evil qi. ”

The old wine was confused when he heard it, anyway, he knew that this thing was harmful to himself, "Turn back, I'll throw it when I turn back." ”

Hongchen handed the things back, but Lao Jiu didn't dare to stretch out his hand, and said in a trembling voice: "It's better to ask Miss to help me deal with it, and it will save it from harming others." ”

"Oh? This is your goods, isn't it still the ornament of the Jade Saint Princess? What's the matter, no more money? ”

Hongchen Wanerdao.

Lao Jiu's face blushed: "Hehe, this is not a small business?" Miss, don't make fun of me, I promise, you won't dare next time! ”

Listen to that.

But looking at his appearance, it doesn't look like he can deceive many people. (To be continued.) )
