Chapter Seventy-Two: The Ancient Star Chasers
"Little sister, what do you do with Dugu Jin's side," Zhou Guangxun asked.
"How do I know what to do, it's like a dog skin plaster, and I can't remove it when I put it on." Zhou Xiya complained irritably.
"Second brother, why don't we go to Dugu Jin in person, teach him a lesson, and let him stop provoking my little sister." Zhou Guangbi came up with an idea on the side.
"Do you think Dugu Jin is someone who will listen to us? Beat him up? Can you beat him? Dugu Jin is not a showmanship, otherwise His Majesty would not let him lead the guards. Zhou Guangxun turned the teacup in his hand.
"Then what should I do, his meat has been delivered to the door, why don't we throw it out?"
"What are you doing when you throw it out, since it's sent to the door, then let's eat, I'm afraid he won't make it, second brother and third brother at noon, don't go, let's enjoy the snow and eat venison hot pot, and then call the second sister-in-law over, I want to see how long Dugu Jin can die and lose his face." Zhou Xiya gritted her teeth hatefully.
Zhou Guangxun and Zhou Guangbi glanced at each other, their eyes were helpless, this Dugu Jin really the little sister.
At noon, Chen Yishan was invited to come and saw Zhou Xiya hurriedly holding her hand, "I heard about yesterday's incident, how did you do it, it was like that, fortunately, it doesn't have much to do with you." "Yesterday, her mother sat next to Sister Zhou Xiya, so I told her when I went back.
"Alas, it's really depressing enough, this doesn't call you here, eat a meal at noon, and go to bad luck." Zhou Xiya pouted and complained to Chen Yishan.
Chen Yishan nodded, this is also the reason why she came directly when she received the invitation, and she was also afraid that Ya'er would be in a bad mood.
Mama Zhou and the others set up the meal in the warm pavilion. The thick hot pot soup base is tumbling with aroma, and it is slightly snowing at this time, watching the snow and appreciating the plum blossoms in the warm pavilion, and then eating the hot hot pot, which is the most enjoyable.
"Xiya, the scenery in your courtyard is really good, especially this plum blossom, which blooms really well, much more beautiful than the one in my yard." Chen Yishan followed Zhou Xiya to the pavilion, and Chen Yishan casually pulled down a branch. Ask lightly about the fragrance of plum blossoms. Very intoxicated.
"These trees have been around for many years, and when I was young, my mother ordered someone to plant them, and she liked them the most. Plum blossoms are proud. The vitality is also the most vigorous. Unfortunately, my mother was allergic to pollen and couldn't smell the rich aroma, so she could only watch from afar. Zhou Xiya picked a pink plum blossom. With a gentle blow, the plum blossoms fall with the wind.
"Although my aunt is deceased, but you are still there, you can watch it instead of her, I want her to plant so many plum blossoms in your yard, and I also hope that you can appreciate the beauty of plum blossoms." Chen Yishan didn't know how to persuade her, losing her mother at an early age was a huge grief for anyone.
Outside the warm pavilion, Zhou Xiya stopped and looked back at the two brothers, "Second brother and third brother, it's still early, if you two dance and confront each other under the snow, let me and my second sister-in-law appreciate it." ”
"What the hell are you up to?" Zhou Guangbi glared, the aroma of hot pot in the warm pavilion had already diffused, but this girl let them dance the sword outside, wasn't this deliberately making them drool?
"Third brother, exercise before meals will help digestion, and besides, can't you eat a little more, is it possible that the third brother doesn't feel sorry for the little sister, the little sister is a small request, the third brother is not willing to meet the little sister?" Zhou Xiya lowered her head and looked very sad. But the cunning in her eyes didn't hide from anyone, she was deliberately pretending to be pitiful.
"Okay, okay, I'm afraid you can't do it, second brother, come on, let's make two moves." Zhou Guangbi had no choice but to surrender.
"Second sister-in-law, let's go inside to see, let me tell you, the second brother's swordsmanship is good, and after a while, the sword qi will scrape down the plum blossoms, and the plum blossoms will fly, and the scene will be very beautiful." Zhou Xiya happily pulled Chen Yishan into the warm pavilion.
Chen Yishan is already used to Zhou Xiya's second sister-in-law, and she is no longer as shy and blushing as she was at the beginning, and she is also very happy to look outside, looking at the heroic posture of her future husband.
The Zhou Guangxun brothers all have their own swords, the sharp swords are drawn, the cold light is pressing, the brothers make a sharp move, and the swords touch together to make a crisp sound.
The plum blossoms on the trees, carried up by the sword qi they crossed, flew down with the wind, accompanied by light snow, pink and white, extremely beautiful.
"Good" Zhou Xiya clapped her hands and applauded, the beautiful scenery can't last long, if only it could be painted.
Chen Yishan's eyes lit up, Brother Xun was so handsome.
After a set of swordsmanship, the two stopped the sword in their hands, and the sword returned to the tip, and the two of them turned out to be handed over by the maid, wiped their sweat, and asked with a smile, "You can see the satisfaction"
"Satisfied, satisfied, so satisfied, the second brother and the third brother are so powerful" Zhou Xiya hurriedly stammered.
"Sit down, fortunately, there are a lot of carbon braziers in this warm pavilion, or the meals will be lit." Chen Yishan greeted the two.
"Yo, the second sister-in-law is distressed, we are eating hot pot, don't be afraid of cold, I specially made the spicy pot today, the two brothers must be happy." Zhou Xiya joked.
"Let's eat it," Zhou Guangxun hurriedly soaked a piece of venison and put it in the little sister's bowl.
"Good" Zhou Xiya tasted it carefully, well, this venison is really tender.
"Second brother, third brother, taste my fifty-year-old daughter red, this is what I took out of my father's wine cellar, my father hid a total of a few jars, let's have a few drinks today." Zhou Xiya poured wine for a few people.
"Can you drink?" Zhou Guangxun looked at Chen Yishan.
"It's okay, I can have a few drinks, it's okay." Chen Yishan nodded gently.
Zhou Xiya and Zhou Guangbi glanced at each other, and smiled very meaningfully, the second brother is a good man who loves women.
"Second brother, the New Year is just a few days away, and the Yamen should have a long holiday this New Year, where do you want to play?" Zhou Xiya asked.
"I haven't thought about it for the time being, I want to come to the capital for the New Year, there should be a lot of fun places, everyone has to prepare New Year's goods for the New Year, and the famous markets in the capital are very lively compared to now, and it's good to go shopping." Zhou Guangxun said casually, he doesn't like lively people very much, and it would be good to go to the market.
"That's so boring, shopping is only what women like, and the New Year is New Year's goods, and the housekeepers have all taken care of it, where can we worry about it" Zhou Guangbi was not interested.
"I have a suggestion. Last year, there was a new way of entertainment in the capital, that is, to listen to songs, different from the traditional singing method, the lyrics are more straightforward, the most famous is a male singer named Zhou Hua, with a handsome face and a unique voice, especially singing love songs, fascinated thousands of girls, every time he came out to perform. It's all full. is very sought after, if it weren't for the fact that he is a drama and status, he would probably be able to enter the list of the top ten beautiful men in the capital. Chen Yishan suddenly spoke.
"I've heard of it too. I was curious. A singing play. How could he be so sought after by people, I heard about some young ladies and watched him sing. A lot of jewelry is thrown on the stage, and he is fascinated, as long as he appears, the tickets for that venue must be snatched up and emptied" Zhou Guangbi is also puzzled, aristocrats like them, some like them like to chase the play, but it's just fun, teasing them to play, tired of playing, naturally abandoned, who is called the identity of the play, but there is no such thing as this Zhou Hua, so sought after, men, women and children, nobles or poor people like to listen to his songs, it's really strange.
"What is the origin of this Zhou Hua, why is it so peculiar?" Zhou Guangxun asked, he was not interested in this, so no one around him told him.
"I don't know, I heard that it has something to do with Xiaoyao Villa, he can become popular, I heard that Xiaoyao Villa operates behind the scenes, this Zhou Hua can be followed by a lot of people, the pomp is big, I heard that there are agents, makeup artists, costume artists, etc., etc., all around him, so many people are praised, it is strange if it is not popular, ordinary famous actors, it is only after singing with the troupe for a long time that it is known to everyone, which is like him, there is a professional team around him." Zhou Guangbi learned and sold the nouns he heard.
"Why is it Escape Hill again?" Zhou Xiya frowned, she found that history has undergone a great deviation, when she was in the capital before, there was no such singing Zhou Hua, that Xiaoyao Villa no longer exists, now it's good, there are their shadows everywhere, as long as there is something new, it must have something to do with that Xiaoyao Villa, she is really more and more curious about the behind-the-scenes boss of the Xiaoyao Villa.
Zhou Guangxun is also thinking about it, this new force will definitely change some of the pattern, and now it seems that this Zhou Hua is a money-making basket in Xiaoyao Villa, as long as someone pursues him, he will continue to make money.
"Third brother, do you know when this Zhou Hua will perform again, I also want to go and see what kind of good skin it is, so many people are holding it." Zhou Xiya decided to take a look.
"It just so happens that he has a performance at the Bell and Drum Tower tonight, and when the time comes, let's go together, and it just so happens that I still have something to ask you for help and give me an idea." Chen Yishan went to speak first.
Zhou Guangxu immediately blackened his face, wouldn't his future daughter-in-law also be obsessed with that little white face, if this was the case, he would kill someone.
"Okay, don't you have a ticket?" Zhou Xiya didn't notice the second brother's black face.
"Yes, I naturally have a way to get it, so it's decided, I'll come to you in the evening." Chen Yishan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, she came to Zhou Xiya today, and she also wanted to ask her for help, Xiya has a lot of ideas, maybe she can help.
"Give us two too, I'll accompany you, you girls go out, it's not safe." Zhou Guangxun suddenly spoke.
"Hehe, second sister-in-law, you are so blessed, the second brother is really not picky." Zhou Xiya laughed.
"Eat quickly, you can't stop your mouth if you eat." Chen Yishan hurriedly served vegetables to Zhou Xiya.
Bai sent his daughter away, watching his daughter leave so embarrassed, Bai's heart was like a knife, but when he returned to the room, he heard that Zhou Xiya was beckoning his friends to eat hot pot, and he angrily dropped all the porcelain in the house.
The second brother left after dinner, and Zhou Xiya returned to the room.
"Miss, let's take a break." Mama Zhou walked over slowly.
"No need, come with me to the study." Zhou Xiya shook her head.
When she arrived at the study, Zhou Xiya wrote a letter, wrapped it and handed it to Mama Zhou, "Send this letter to the third princess, Zhou Xiwan was kicked out, and the third princess was happy to fall into the ground." ”
"Yes, the slave will do it" Mama Zhou nodded, the second lady's life is not easy now, without the protection of the Zhou family, the second miss is nothing outside.
Zhou Xiya looked at the snow scene outside, Zhou Xiwan, how about this gift I gave you, compared to this year, your mother and daughter must be very comfortable.
In the evening, the third brother came to pick her up, and the second brother went to pick up the second sister-in-law, and then they could gather at the Bell and Drum Tower.
When I arrived at the Bell and Drum Tower, Zhou Xiya knew that what the second sister-in-law and the third brother said was true, this time had not yet arrived, and a lot of carriages had gathered at the door, many young ladies walked down from the door, and went inside in groups of three or five, and there were many young sons, and the big winter ones were still holding a shake fan, calling friends and companions, it was very lively, I don't know which mansion I thought would do a happy event, even if it was the palace hospitality, there were not so many people, but fortunately, they were all young people.
"Let's go, let's go in too, if it's over, we won't be able to occupy a good position." At this time, Chen Yishan and Zhou Guangxun walked over.
A few people walked inside, only to find that there were more people inside, there was a big stage on the first floor, and there were some seats in the front, but not everyone could sit and watch, most of them were standing and waiting, and some people were still holding signs in their hands, with Zhou Hua's name written on them, and before they came out, they began to hold it, for fear that Zhou Hua would not see it.
Zhou Guangxun and Zhou Xiya both felt strange, as for it? can be obsessed with a person to such a point.
If they had seen the star chasers of later generations, they would not be surprised.
"Let's go, our seats are on the second floor" Chen Yishan pulled Zhou Xiya and squeezed up to the second floor with great difficulty, because there were people on the stairs.
"It's so crowded, I'll never come to this place again." Zhou Xiya patted her chest, she was really not used to such an occasion.
"I don't like it either, but who makes some girls just like it." Chen Yishan looked around on the second floor, and soon saw a table of girls next to the railing, that girl was her cousin, and the purpose of her visit today.
"Let's go over." Chen Yishan pulled Zhou Xiya and walked over.
"Xiaoying" Chen Yishan called her cousin.
"Cousin, you're here, my cousin-in-law is good, my third cousin is good, this is." Xiao Ying turned around and saw that since she was, she hurriedly stood up and said hello. She had met the Zhou Guangxun brothers
"This is my cousin Zhou Xiya," Zhou Guangxun introduced
"Hello, I'm Feng Ying, I should be younger than you, just call me Xiaoying, cousin, sit down, Zhou Hua is about to come out." Feng Ying was busy greeting everyone.
"Let me tell you, Zhou Hua is going to sing his new song today, it must be very good......" Feng Ying kept chattering, all talking about the good things of her idol.
"You can see it, this is the purpose of my call to come, help me think of a way, Xiaoying is too obsessed with this Zhou Hua, she knows Zhou Hua and Zhou Hua all day long, my uncle and aunt are dying of sorrow for this matter, I enclosed her and didn't let her come to see, she went on a hunger strike, this is not my aunt asked her to me, let me help think of a way, but I have no good way, Xiaoying can't tolerate others to say a word about Zhou Hua's badness, and if she says it, she will fight hard with others, and I will die of a headache." Chen Yishan whispered to Zhou Xiya, it seemed that she was embarrassed to death. (To be continued......)
