Chapter 0064 - Enjoying Red Plums Around the Fireplace (Second Watch)

After being tired for a long time, Hongcui looked at the sun, almost noon. Oops, I drank half a cup of tea, my stomach was grumpy, and I was hungry. She stood up and told her men to prepare a sedan chair and go back to Jinxiulan to eat by herself.

The man promised to prepare the sedan chair and went. Hongcui asked the little maid to wait for her to get dressed, just waiting for the sedan chair to come and go back.

At this time, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old brother recklessly barged in. He just walked with his head down and crashed into Hongcui's arms. Hongcui was not annoyed, and was about to wave his hand to give him a slap, when he glanced at him and saw that he was holding a golden two-dragon bead ruyi hairpin in his hand. I saw that the two dragons on the hairpin were lifelike, but the dragon's eyes were four cat's eyes as big as fingernails. Isn't this the wishful hairpin lost by our pawnshop? How did it get into his hands?

Hongcui's heart moved, put down her hand, changed her face to a smile, squatted down, and asked kindly, "Little brother, what are you holding in your hand?" Can you show your sister? ā€

Seeing that Hongcui was beautiful, this little brother stretched out his dirty hand to pull Hongcui, and said straight in his mouth: "Bride, Liu'er's bride, Liu'er wants to marry the bride and give birth to a good doll." ā€

Hongcui scolded secretly, your new big-headed ghost lady, just like you, I still want Hongcui to marry you, and I don't pee to see. scolded like this, but his face was still smiling, he held the little brother's hand and said, "Okay, okay, my sister will be the bride of Liu'er." But you'll have to show your sister what you're holding in your hand. ā€

As soon as the hairpin was mentioned, the little brother immediately retracted his hand, hid it tightly behind his back, and stepped back again and again and said, "I can't give this, uncle beat me, beat me." It hurts, it hurts. ā€

I want to slip away when I touch it, how can I be afraid of being eaten tofu for nothing? Hongcui's face changed. Glaring at him, he said, "Show me, or I'll hit you in the mouth." He said. Hongcui gestured and raised her hand.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, the little brother sat on the ground and cried. Hongcui can't do it this time, it's easy to deal with a man with a sound mind, but the brother in front of him is a fool at first glance. Rarely, Hongcui comforted him softly, but he still cried profusely, as if Hongcui really slapped his mouth.

Originally, there were a few customers on the street who wanted to come in as objects. Seeing that there was a lot of commotion inside, I thought something was going on inside, so I turned around and left and went to the Song family's pawnshop opposite. Hongcui was furious when she saw that the business was not done. After thinking about it for a long time, Hongcui went inside and came out with a plate of snacks.

Hongcui ignored him, let him cry, but he sat at the table and ate by himself, muttering in his mouth: "The Xu family's osmanthus cake is so sweet, and this peanut crisp." It's crispy and delicious, and the crying person can't eat it. Oops, there's only three left, and there's no food to eat right away. All right. If anyone doesn't cry now, I'll give him a piece to cry about. There was nothing, I ate it all by myself. ā€

The little brother was still wiping his eyes. At this time, he secretly spread his ten fingers and looked at the osmanthus cake on the plate from the seam of his hand. Hongcui's mouth kept chirping. It looks like it's delicious. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, the little brother carefully moved two steps forward, stopped for a moment, and moved three steps forward. He followed him to the table, and finally let go of his hands, and looked at Hongcui pitifully with a pair of dark eyes.

Hongcui looked at him and smiled secretly in her heart, stinky boy, fight with the girl, you can cultivate for another hundred years.

"I, I'm hungry, I want to eat cake." The little brother said timidly.

Hongcui snorted, brought the cake to him and asked, "Do you want to eat osmanthus cake?" Take it. ā€

The little brother nodded, pursed his mouth and swallowed his saliva, stretched out his dirty hand to snatch it. How do you know that Hongcui's hand is faster than him, rubbing the ground and stuffing the osmanthus cake into his mouth, still muttering: "Think beautiful, sister, I haven't eaten enough." ā€

The little brother was so angry that he sat on the ground with a puff and cried. Hongcui saw that the teasing was almost over, so she squatted down, handed him the osmanthus cake and said, "Look at you are also a master, you cry at every turn." Come, give it to you, eat. ā€

The little brother took the osmanthus cake and stuffed it into his mouth, choking so much that he almost couldn't breathe. Hongcui brought him a cup of tea and let him drink it. After eating the osmanthus cake, he took a closer look at Hongcui, grabbed Hongcui's hand and shouted: "Bride, I want to marry the bride and give birth to a fat doll." ā€

Hongcui shook off his hand, but said with a smile: "I am your bride, you can tell me, where did the hairpin come from?" Beautiful, isn't it? Would you like to give it to me? ā€

When the little brother heard that Hongcui was willing to be his bride, his face bloomed with joy, and he clapped his hands and shouted: "Xiao Liu'er has a bride, Xiao Liu'er has a bride." He jumped up from the ground, rushed out excitedly, and disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Hongcui snorted angrily and stomped her feet and scolded: "Silly boy, I delayed for half a day, and I didn't ask a fart." The next time I see you, I will look good with you. It's obviously my family's hairpin, but where did he get it? ā€

The sedan chair waited outside for a long time, and the sedan chair man saw that the Hongcui girl was quite big, but he didn't dare to destroy her. At this time, seeing that Hongcui was done, she asked, "Can the girl go?" ā€

Hongcui replied impatiently: "Let's go, let's go back to Jinxiulan." ā€

In the blink of an eye, the second half of the month was relatively clean, and the pawnshop did not lose any more objects. Despite this, Gongzi was still worried about Li Yulin's affairs, and thought about Chai Fu's strategy day and night.

On this day, a few red plums bloomed in the courtyard. Hongcui was very happy when she saw the flowers blooming brightly, and ordered the kitchen to prepare a few dishes of exquisite wine and food, and shouted that she wanted to drink wine with her son around the fireplace.

Although the son said that Hongcui was troublesome, he did not object, and Hongcui Zhang Luo went. Hongcui built a shed in the backyard, and the charcoal burned vigorously, and when the heat in the shed came up, she invited her son to come in and drink. Hongcui said that Gongzi was not good at drinking, but she and Gongzi couldn't drink enough, and invited Dark Xiang to come over.

Childe sat in the chief, and Hongcui and Dark Incense sat opposite each other below. The little maid poured wine, and the three of them drank half a glass first. Dark Xiang was about to talk about the pawnshop again, but as soon as he started, he was beaten back by Hongcui's chopsticks: "Drinking and appreciating Meiduo's refreshing things, what kind of business do you say to stir people's interest, take it back quickly." ā€

Dark incense glanced at Childe and had to say yes. Hongcui saw that they were drinking too much, and her heart must be that the wine was not strong enough, and she had to drink enough wine to be interesting. Hongcuiti yƬ said that he wanted to guess that he would drink, so that he would be more happy to drink. Childe said no, she couldn't drink herself, and she didn't know anything about guessing this kind of thing, only the share of alcohol. Dark Xiang also said yes, Hongcui saw that drinking was so unpleasant, so she pursed her lips and sulked.

The atmosphere at the table was dreary for a moment. Dark Xiang stood up and poured half a glass of wine for Childe, and said: "Dark Fragrance respects Childe for half a cup, it's cold, Childe is so warm." ā€

Childe didn't shirk and drank it all. After that, Childe also poured a glass of wine for Dark Xiang and said, "You have worked hard for a year, and I will also toast you." ā€

Dark Fragrance hurriedly took it with both hands and drank it neatly. Hongcui looked amused on the side, and said in a low voice: "You guys drink freely and respect each other like guests, what's the fun, how can you guess a big bowl of drinking and having fun?" Depending on the situation, do you want to chant poetry again? I'm suffocated. ā€

Sure enough, Dark Fragrance said: "The red plums in this courtyard bloom beautifully, which reminds me of that: This body is in the ice and snow forest, and it is different from peach and plum mixed with fragrant dust. Suddenly, the fragrance of the night was scattered. This night is fragrant, and the sky is full of spring, but it is very arrogant. ā€

After half a glass of wine, Gongzi's face flushed slightly, and he couldn't help but say when he looked at the dark fragrance: "I think of Lin Kui's famous sentence of Yongmei: The shadow is sparse and the water is shallow, and the dark fragrance floats in the dusk of the moon." ā€

This poem just brings out the name of the dark incense. Dark incense ears are hot for three minutes, and his heart beats for five minutes, but he poured a full glass of wine and drank it.

Hongcui didn't know what they were muttering about, but when she heard Childe say something about the dark incense, she immediately became interested. She stood up, snuggled up to her son, and said, "My son, good son, the poem you just said is very good, you write it down for Hongcui, and I will frame it in my room." ā€

Childe pushed her away and asked, "Usually I read a lot of poems, why don't I listen to you well?" ā€

Hongcui glanced at the dark fragrance and said, "Isn't there a dark fragrance on this poem, I listen to it interesting." ā€

Childe didn't say anything more, Hongcui just drank by herself, and Dark Xiang walked out of the shed by saying that she was appreciating plums.

The painting screen passed through the corridor and passed through the pavilion, only came to the son, handed the son a greeting note and said: "It's that Luo Shen General again, who sent two girls over, dressed up bewitchingly, and said that he had to invite the son to drink." If Childe doesn't go, those two girls should freeze to death outside. ā€

Before the words of the painting screen were finished, Hongcui clapped her hands first. Although she had only seen Luo Qingsong once, it was the last time she was in Xu Changyou's mansion, but now as long as she has wine to drink and drink happily, it is better than suffocating here.

Childe hated Luo Qingsong's trick, but there was nothing he could do. If she hadn't made it, the two girls would have froze to death outside. But I thought about it, anyway, they were willing to freeze to death for Luo Qingsong, so what if she didn't go to the appointment? It wasn't she who let the two girls freeze to death outside. After thinking about it for a while, I still couldn't bear it, so I stood up and ordered the painting screen: "Prepare a sedan chair." ā€

The painting screen replied: "People said, don't bother the son to prepare a sedan chair, Luo Ye came with a sedan chair, just invite the son in." ā€

Childe flicked his sleeves, snorted, and walked straight out. Hongcui hurriedly followed Gongzi and said, "Hongcui is going to serve Gongzi and block wine for Gongzi." Who knows what kind of heart that kid has in his belly, don't let my son-in-law suffer. ā€

After a while, the two maids led Gongzi and Hongcui through the streets and alleys, and went straight to a lively place. Hongcui listened to the screams of the grandfather outside in the sedan chair, and opened the window to see, yo, this is not the eighteen kilns, the largest flower lane in the capital, and it is also a man's favorite pastime. She secretly thought, this Luo Qingsong or something, but he is really not a good person. Last time, I brought my son to Lichun Courtyard and let my son have a good drink. Today, he brought his son to Lichun Courtyard, what kind of trouble did he want? He didn't know that my son-in-law was a daughter. No, today I have to stand up for Xiao Gege, fill him up, let him come in vertically, carry him out, and see how he will bully my little Gege in the future. (To be continued......)
