Chapter 101: Is It Hot? 【Subscription】
Dozens of crane-beak copper lamps are inlaid on the wall, and the wind blows in, and the candlelight jumps and shimmers for a while. Under the uncertain light, the anger in the eyes of the ninth prince like a cold star in the middle of the night turned into shock. The color of surprise flashed, and in an instant, it revealed a bit of playfulness.
Jiu Gongzi's eyes were scorching, and he looked at Xie Jiang for a moment.
Xie Jiang doesn't care what kind of demeanor and face everyone has. There seemed to be a smile in his eyes, and he glanced at Xie Ningshuang, and asked in a soft voice: "Sister, after making so much effort, Sister A's feet hurt." ”
There was no hint of questioning in this sentence, and after listening carefully, there was a vague sense of concern.
It was only then that the people in the hall could see that the situation was not right. It seems that Xie Jiang almost jumped down just now, not because he stepped on his skirt, not because he made a mistake because he was cowering and panicking, but because he was tripped by Mrs. Xie. The girl who knelt on the ground and carried the vegetables, the servants and maids who poured tea and wine, and the slave ...... who boiled the wine, all looked to the right.
Glancing at Xie Huaijin's gloomy face, Xie Fengxi said in a strange manner: "Sister, cough!" It's just a shame for yourself, how can you still climb Ah Shuang? As he spoke, his eyes slanted, and he secretly gave Xie Ningshuang a look.
The embarrassment and panic in Xie Ningshuang's eyes suddenly turned into disdain, and she calmed down: "Ah Jiang, which eye did you see me kicking you?" ”
"Oh! ……。 Xie Jiang dragged a long voice, and then changed his tone, and asked idly: "I only care about whether Sister A's feet hurt, as for kicking ......, but Sister herself said it." ”
The first girl who wore an apricot jacket poured wine "poof!" "A bang. He laughed for a while, and hurriedly reached out to cover his mouth. The main hall was originally silent, and this half of the "laughter" was extremely abrupt and harsh.
Little slut! is so sharp-toothed and sharp-tongued, picking on the leaks in the words. Xie Ningshuang's face flashed with a little annoyance, she raised her eyes to look at Xie Huaijin, and argued: "Father, Ah Shuang has no ....... In just half a sentence, the tone not only carried a little grievance and pity, but also revealed a bit of pleading.
Xie Huaijin's face was as usual. As usual, ...... did not mean to be half-angry. There was no embarrassment because there was an outsider at the banquet. His eyes were unwavering, and he calmly glanced at Xie Jiang.
The two sisters blamed each other at the banquet, no matter which one was ugly in the end. In the end, it was the face of the Xie family that was lost. Xie Jiang raised his eyebrows like a string moon, turned around, and leisurely ascended the stone steps.
The girl who poured the wine knew that she had made a mistake, so she had already lowered her head and retreated to the corner. On the desk in front of Xie Huaijin. Only the celadon wine vessel was put aside. Xie Jiang stretched out his hand to carry the wine vessel, only to feel that the tentacles were slightly cold, so he raised his little face and asked softly, "Father, change the hot wine to salute, okay?" ”
Xie Jiang had a smile on his face, as if he had made a mistake just now, or Xie Ningshuang had made him stretch his feet, but he didn't take it to heart at all. Xie Huaijin's eyes showed a bit of approval, and he raised his hand to stroke the short hair under his chin. Wen Sheng said: "Well, Ah Jiang will pour it." ”
The clay urn of the charcoal stove for cooking sake is on the right side of the main hall. Two Tsing Yi servants knelt beside each other, one added charcoal to the stove, and the other took a fan in his left hand to fan the wind in the hearth, and took a long-handled wine bottle in his right hand, and stirred it in the urn a few times.
There was a slight "grunt" sound in the urn. The wine is boiled.
Because it is convenient to drink alcohol and is not smoked by soot, the clay urn charcoal stove for cooking wine is seven or eight steps away from the top. Xie Jiang took the wine vessel over and said softly, "Add wine." ”
Everybody in the clan. The servants who cook wine are full-time. According to the usual rules, the servant who carried the wine should take the wine vessel first. The servant did not have a wine container, not only did he not go to get the wine container, but he stirred it in the urn with a long handle of wine. Scooped a full hanging of boiling wine out.
The aroma of wine overflowed, and the smoke spread. While the smoke was steaming, Xie Jiang's dark and big eyes suddenly condensed on the wine. Seeing her show this demeanor, ...... Jiu Gongzi felt a little strange in his heart, and ordered Meng Shen with a side face: "Go and take a look." ”
I saw the wine. Xie Jiang suddenly remembered that Xinyue had said that the Zhao family would use "hot soup" in the banquet. "Then this "hot soup" is not ....... Xie Jiang had a few thoughts in his heart for a moment, and he remained silent for the moment, and turned to look at the servants.
In an instant, the servant's face changed suddenly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Go to death!" The words didn't fall, so he flipped the handle and poured the boiling wine on Xie Jiang's head.
The hall was filled with a strong smell of rice wine.
When the nobles of the family go to the banquet, they wear a pleated skirt, and then wear a blouse with large sleeves and layered ribbons, which is the standard attire. Xie Jiang is extremely grateful to Mama Han for talking about the rules a few times, so that he can wear this "outfit". Seeing that the servant's eyes were wrong, he stretched out his sleeves.
The wide sleeves cover the head and face tightly.
There was a "kicking" in the hall, and ...... said, "Catch him!" ”……。
The girl screamed, "Oops! ......, Xie Ningshuang howled: "It's burning, hurry, the inside of my neck is ......." ”
In the chaos and noise, Jiugongzi's low voice was extremely clear: "Give people to Wuda." ......, "Could it be that the head of the Xie family has provoked some wicked person, so someone will come to assassinate him?" Let's check it out. ”
Xie Huaijin's slightly astringent voice again: "Go and have a look." ”
"Is it hot?"
The voice is getting closer and closer, and the sentence "Is it hot?" "It's overhead.
What is the assassination? Those with long eyes can see where the spearhead of the servant is. This person is just too big and crooked. Xie Jiang raised his eyes to look over, and the ninth prince bent over and drooped his eyelids, his eyes not only revealed a little concern, but also ...... funny.
This person's schadenfreude look too obvious! Xie Jiang's eyes slanted upward, first gave Jiugongzi two big white eyes, and then gave Xie Huai a courtesy in a proper manner: "Ah Jiang is fine, Father Lao is worried." ”
His eyes swept over Xie Jiang's face a few times, and Xie Huaijin's expression eased.
The cheap breed of concubines is also worthy of being booed, Xie Ningshuang hated and scolded in her heart, but she frowned on her face, and made an unbearable pain: "Oops! It hurts to death! ”。 The little girl was startled, and wanted to raise her hand to tear open her neck collar to see, but she was afraid of annoying her, so she had to persuade her: "Big lady, it's just a piece of ...... red." ”
Outside, there was a lot of ice and snow, and then the boiling wine spilled out, and most of the heat was dissipated. What's more, Xie Ningshuang was five or six steps away. The little girl only saw that the back of her neck was a little red, so she told the truth.
No one came to ask, and even a dared to talk back. Xie Ningshuang's resentment in her heart was not angry, and she couldn't suppress it in an instant, and she didn't want to think about it, so she raised her hand and slapped the little girl in the face with a "snap", and scolded: "What are you!" ”
Xie Ningshuang's voice was sharp and high-pitched, not only gritting her teeth, but also revealing endless resentment.
In the main hall, there was a moment of silence.
It didn't seem to hear any sound, Xie Huaijin glanced at Xie Jiang, twisted his eyes and looked at the ninth prince again, and said lightly: "I'm tired of the prince to send Ah Jiang back." ”
In this case, it is obvious that the ninth prince will be taken away. When people go ......, they have to deal with things that are inconvenient for outsiders to see.
"Hmm." The ninth prince knows it. On the surface, it was the two little ladies of the Xie family who had an awkward quarrel just now. Looking deeper, it was Xie Ningshuang who bullied his sister in front of him, an outsider, regardless of the reputation of the Xie family, this kind of behavior is a big taboo in the family.
The reputation of the family is more important than life.
P: Dear, ask for recommendation votes, ask for ...... Forget it, it's okay not to give it. Have a great day (to be continued.) )
PS: Dear, my hand is soaked, and the skin is off, which not only looks terrifying, but also hurts. Has anyone saved too many "claws"? If so, make a price...... Ha ha
