Chapter Ninety-Nine: Five Daughters Capture Jade (1)

() From the noodle stall, about the time of the day.

The lamp market is becoming more and more noisy, and the people passing by are like carp crossing the river, there are peddlers carrying burdens and shouting, there are market neighbors in coarse linen clothes, and there are many splendid and colorful ladies and scholars who gently shake folding fans. The eyes are full of fire trees and silver flowers, and the streamer is bright.

Uncle Feng said with a smile: "Cicheng Night Market, as expected, it is worthy of its reputation, everyone should not be scattered, we must have a good time tonight!" ”

I raised my eyes, my eyes across the bustling sea of people, a laughter, the scene of peace in the prosperous world, this atmosphere really made me happy, I pushed the heart of a hundred miscellaneous thoughts, the first to cheer: "Good! I want to eat poor Yang Xiuyi! ”

He looked back and smiled, "Come on." ”

I snorted, "You wait for me!" ”

He didn't know where to find a folding fan, shook it, shook it, and said idly: "Wait, wait." ”

We walked with the flow of people, and I kept shouting to stop along the road, sometimes I wanted to have a glass of cooking wine, sometimes I asked Xiangzhu to buy some pastries and candies, and soon I shouted to go to the roadside stalls, pick up some hairpin jewelry, rouge incense powder, most of them were given to Xia Yuelou, and then some were given to Chunman, but I ignored Xiangzhu, and muttered about her dissatisfaction and pretended to be deaf and dumb.

Passing through this long street, the lights are more glazed tiles, a group of children carrying lanterns, sugar gourd strings giggling and running towards me, a few stopped in front of me, bright eyes blinked curiously, a beautiful little girl asked: "Sister, are your feet bad?" ”

I smiled and said, "It's not the feet, it's the waist, don't be afraid, my sister can still walk." ”

She handed over the sugar gourd in her hand: "Sister, then your waist is good early!" ”

My heart warmed, and I sketched her pretty facial features in my heart: "Thank you!" ”

She and a few companions ran away with a smile, I took a bite of the sugar gourd, the taste was sweet and sour, refreshing and moist, I lifted it up and handed it to Yang Xiuyi: "You invite me today, come, I will also invite you once, but only one bite is allowed!" ”

Actually, I just want to tease him. I don't think he really opened his mouth and bit it. Laughing and chewing twice: "Yes, it's quite sweet." "Then I reached out and snatched my sugar gourd, and unceremoniously bit off one.

I blinked my eyes twice: "Yang Xiuyi, you ......"

At this time, there was a sudden crackling sound of bamboo cannons and gongs and drums in front, and many figures ran towards it.

Pushing through the layers of crowds, it is a tall restaurant. The building occupies an extremely wide area, with a width of about eight feet. A wide platform was built in front of the building, two feet above the ground, and covered with a red soft carpet, which looked like a grand banquet.

I excitedly said, "There won't be any cabaret drama to watch, right?" ”

Uncle Feng paused and shook his head: "Today, April 26, is not a festival day, nor is it a great man's sacrifice day. ”

I was stunned. I suddenly remembered that I hadn't cared about Japan for a long time, but I knew that it was getting warmer every day, my clothes were getting thinner and thinner, and there were more and more insects, and I didn't think that so many days had passed before I knew it.

Thinking about the past half a month, I spent most of my time in a coma and hurrying, and I couldn't help but feel sorry for the prophecy that my master said that my short life came back to my mind, and I once vowed to live every day. Now it's going to be wasted again.

At the time of the sad spring and autumn, there were two rows of pretty, uniformly dressed women on the stage, standing on the edge of the ring, and then a bloated and obese middle-aged woman came slowly with four handsome maids. She is richly dressed, jewelry, graceful and rich, her facial features are actually good, but she has too much fat, covering her beauty.

She stood still in Taichung, raised her eyes and swept the sea of adults, then clasped her fists with both hands, and said loudly: "Leave the city and the countryside, foreign friends from all sides!" Thanks to your care, I have today's prosperity of my Daxiang Restaurant, little girl Jin Xiangmeng, thank you for this! ”

With that, he picked up the wine bowl in the tray of the maid beside him and drank it all.

Her voice was sonorous and firm, and she drank this bowl of wine with arrogance and courage. The audience immediately burst into applause, and I couldn't help but praise it in my heart, looking forward to the following.

"Although I Jin Xiangmeng likes to be lively, I never like to be noticed by thousands of people, and I can't talk about being broad-minded, but most of the rumors of some villains can't get into my ears, let alone put them in my heart. The reason why I am standing here today is only because of a sentence from my sister, she said that it doesn't matter if the villain rumors continue, but I am afraid that if the villain rumors continue to spread, it will confuse everyone, lose the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, and become ignorant and absurd, ridiculous and dull! After all, Cicheng is also my homeland, and I don't want my hometown children to be laughed at by foreign friends! ”

What a clever irony! Uncle Feng couldn't help but praise: "What a dream of Jin Xiang!" ”

She continued: "Most of the rumors in the city have been heard and spread in recent days, and I have to thank you for helping me make a reputation, Jin Xiangmeng is grateful!" This rumor said that I was extremely shrewd and capable, intelligent and cunning, and I was reborn, not to mention that my biological father and mother did not recognize me, and even I myself admired the superb skill of this 'Jin Xiang Dream'. She bought and sold illicit salt, bought dead pigs and sick chickens at a low price, and used forcible robbery to seize grain crops. But I'll tell you, the guy who made this up in the first place, you're a fart! If I, Jin Xiangmeng, were so ruthless, I would be the first to pick your skin! ”

After finishing speaking, she gasped slightly, and then said: "In addition, there are also people who say that I make money without compromise, that I send beauties to seduce dignitaries, open convenient procedures, and evade taxes, and even more, say that several of my major shareholders are from prostitutes/women/prostitutes/women, so I have this vast network to support the prosperity of Daxiang Restaurant." I sue you today, and you insult me Jin Xiangmeng! But my shareholders are pure and good women, and my customers will not allow you to be defiled! I really want to find someone to beat this initiator to death, but I, Jin Xiangmeng, am not a person who abuses lynching and counters violence with violence! People who can spread rumors and say these words, you don't have to think about it to know who it is, I will just say a few words, everyone is a businessman, the road to opening a business and creating wealth is difficult, and they know in their hearts that if they have the ability, they will compete with guns and knives, and don't do some shady things behind the scenes! ”

Xia Yuelou sighed lightly: "Mu Xiu is in the forest, the wind will destroy it, her restaurant is so grand, and she is a woman, no wonder." ”

I smiled and said, "It's a mediocrity not to be envied, she really fights for us women!" ”

The more Jin Xiangmeng spoke, the more excited he became, and he stretched out his hand and pointed to the building behind him. Loudly: "Twenty years ago." My six sisters and I founded Daxiang Restaurant, which was just a teahouse at that time, and today it has become such a scale, in addition to the guests, my sisters have contributed even more! Those bastards who have spread rumors have pricked up my ears and listened, we are women! It's all women! There are no bribes/bribes to dignitaries, no women who sell their flesh/bodies, and no women who have done anything harmful! You useless men! ”

The audience suddenly thundered, and I applauded: "Well said! ”

Jin Xiangmeng's chest fluctuated a lot, and he relieved himself for a long time. Raised his hand and raised a smile, he said, "Okay! Now let's get down to business! Today's red platform is not just a nonsense for us. It's my Daxiang Restaurant for women! Why are women inferior to men? Why do women have to go out of the door of the house, and the second door does not step! I, Jin Xiangmeng, threw my face and showed my face, and I still lived happily! To hell with worldly prejudices! ”

Then, the rest of the women began to set up the scene. I excitedly said, "She's saying so well! ”

Uncle Feng nodded: "Well, don't lose to Los Angeles Nineteen Niang." ”

Los Angeles Nineteen Niang was a famous female businesswoman three hundred years ago, rich and rivaling the country. arrogant, there are too many rumors about her, some good and some bad. There is a rumor that there is a drought in Bingzhou, and she waved her hand and sent someone to send 100 tons of ganlin overnight. It is also rumored that she once spent 10,000 dollars to buy the largest brothel in the capital and give it to her younger brother for his enjoyment, which is really shocking. But no matter what the rumors are, she always occupies an admirable height in the hearts of the world, and Uncle Feng compares Jin Xiangmeng to her. It can be seen that Jin Xiangmeng's words and demeanor have convinced him.

After a while, a glamorous woman stood in the middle of the stage in a hibiscus gown, looked around, and said with a warm smile: "In the first game, taste the recipe, a total of thirty plates of exquisite dishes, try them one by one, whoever writes the most complete and accurate, is the winner, you can get 30 taels of silver, and eat and drink for free in Daxiang Restaurant for 1 month!" ”

"Wow!"

The crowd burst into a sea of cheers. Whether you win or lose, you can get over your addiction, which is really a great thing. Xiangzhu and Chunman immediately ran away, and by the way, Xia Yuelou was also ripped off, but I could only sit in a wheelchair and swallow dryly.

Master comforted me, "It's okay, it's okay, you can't win if you go." ”

I complained: "But there is a bargain in front of me, but I can't take advantage of it, I'm going to die, I'm also a woman!" ”

Yang Xiuyi gloated: "What does it look like a woman?" It's right not to go up. ”

I glared at him fiercely: "Wait, I'm going to fight with you when I'm ready!" ”

He immediately raised his hand and flicked my head: "Just you?" ”

I quickly grabbed his wrist and raised it to my mouth to bite it off, when I was stunned and looked up at him: "Why don't you hide?" ”

He raised his eyebrows: "See if you dare to bite." ”

He was so provocative, I should have bitten down, but after a moment's consideration, I let go of him very unproductively: "Forget it." ”

His brows furrowed slightly, the smile on his face faded, and he looked away. I also looked to the other side and stopped talking. In fact, I knew in my heart that not biting him was not for fear of his revenge, nor was it reluctant, but because I didn't dare to touch my lips to his skin.

I really miss the time when I was angry before, I could pounce on him and beat him, although most of them were kicked away by him and bullied by him, but at that time there were no scruples between men and women, he didn't know that I liked him, I didn't know that he liked me, and I didn't know that I liked him.

At that time, when you are unhappy, you can scold each other, or smash each other with the lid of the pot, and make trouble, although you will be angry, you are mostly carefree. Like now, there is only a thin piece of window paper left, I don't dare to pierce it, I am afraid of falling into it, he does not dare to pierce it, I am afraid of scaring me away. As a result, we consciously or unconsciously avoid some topics and touches, and as a result, we become more and more estranged.

This feeling is terrible, and I want to run away as soon as possible, out of sight, out of mind, hiding in my turtle shell for the rest of my life.

I raised my head and looked at the ring, more than a hundred girls walked around the huge table, the laughter of the warblers was continuous, and the brilliant lights of the Daxiang Restaurant reflected on their faces, like warm jade on the face, beautiful to the extreme.

Half an hour later, when the tasting time was over, they were given a pen and a piece of paper, and those who couldn't write were whispered on the side.

After announcing the answer, the winner was a lightly dressed woman, but looking at the makeup and clothing, it was not an ordinary person, maybe it was a big lady who escaped to play.

Xiangzhu came back satisfied, Xiangzhu seemed to be deliberately angry with me, and kept talking about how delicious those dishes were. Maybe my face was too gloomy, Xia Yuelou patted me on the shoulder and said, "I remember the names of those dishes, and I will definitely treat you to a meal then." ”

It's pretty much the same, I can finally pull out a smiley face.

After the stage was cleaned up, the woman in hibiscus clothes returned to Taichung, everyone looked at her expectantly, she smiled mysteriously, raised her slender hand, and held a light jade in her hand, the shape was irregular, it was the original jade.

She said with a smile: "In the second game, a hundred flowers win the jade, this is the cloud and bamboo of the twilight blue mountain, which is not very precious, but the implication is excellent, the civil and military two sessions, the winner wins." ”

Yun Zhubi a small jade pendant, the price is about thirty taels, it is indeed not expensive for their rich people, but in the eyes of ordinary people, it is a sky-high price. And this piece of raw jade, the size of a palm, carved it, the price is at least worth five hundred taels.

Many women came to the stage one after another, and I saw two familiar figures, one was a woman in blue with my fiancΓ©, and the other was Huang Luo.

Seeing Huang Luo, I immediately turned to Xia Yuelou: "Why don't you go?" ”

She shook her head: "I've just eaten a little, so there's nothing to go." ”

"You can also be regarded as a scholar and martial artist, what a pity it is for you not to go, this is silver!"

She smiled knowingly: "Have you been comparing me to that woman invisibly?" ”

I hurriedly denied: "What's the comparison? What is she like you? ”

At this time, the woman in the hibiscus dress on the stage raised her voice: "Is there anything else you want to attend?" ”

I hurriedly pulled Xia Yuelou and shouted, "Here! Over here! ”

Everyone immediately looked at me, and the girl sent someone to help me. "That woman looks at me?" ~Mouth-to-heart, and then said to the female beer beside him: "There is a reluctance over there to reluctantly or update me."
