Last night, I took a bite of my mouth, and when I got up in the morning, Yu Shu rinsed his teeth with salt water, and felt that his lower lip was a little numb, and when he looked in the mirror, his lips were really a little swollen.

She touched her lower lip lightly, remembering the hot embrace last night, her heartbeat was a few beats faster, and she heard Xiaoqing, who was combing her hair, praise:

"The girl looks so good today, she slept well last night."

Yu Shu looked at the ruddy figure in the mirror, and sighed weakly.

As soon as it was tidied up, Gui Qi invited her downstairs to eat outside the door

The dinner table was too quiet, and there was only the sound of dishes and chopsticks clinking at the beginning, Yu Shu drank a few sips of sweet porridge, and couldn't help but look up and say to Xue Rui:

"You've been watching what I'm doing, hurry up and eat, and go to the yamen after eating, don't you still have a lot of things to do?"

Xue Rui smiled at her, raised his hand and put a roasted plum roll in her bowl, and said:

"Don't be in a hurry at this time, try this, it's the chef's newly learned Jiangnan snacks, the weather is hot, you can eat more rice noodles in the morning, and you won't be tired on this day."

Xiuqing is not a southerner, but no matter how busy she is on weekdays, she still has to practice a few Jiangnan dishes every other day to cater to Yu Shu's taste.

It's just that Yu Shu didn't grow up in the south at all, so he hasn't been able to detect Xue Rui's intentions.

After breakfast, Yu Shu went out with Xue Rui and sent her home first, and then he went to Dali Temple.

Yu Shu entered the house, but after a cup of tea, he let Liu Zhong set up the carriage and turned around and went out again. Taishi Shuyuan has not had classes in the past few days, and she is going to the south of the city to find a craftsman who makes fans.

***

Yu Shu inquired in the north of the city a while ago, not to mention seventeen or eighteen fan shops. I can't use a peachwood root to make a fan, so I simply changed direction today and walked to the south of the city where there are many people and streets.

However, the market in the south of the city is not as good as that in the north of the city.

After half an hour and three streets, Yu Shu found out that there was an old shop making fans in an alley.

Halfway down the road, she walked a little way and touched the small storefront called "Baizhitang".

Yu Shu waved the sweat on his forehead, and pushed open the bamboo curtain with a hesitant attitude, and there was a dizziness in front of him. I saw the concave shape inside the hall. There are fans hanging on three walls, one side is full of colorful women's fans, one side is full of rosin ink treasure scholar folding fans, and one side is a variety of cool fans, more than 100 faces.

She stood in the doorway for a moment. He was overjoyed and stepped forward to ask the middle-aged man who was twisting copper wires next to the shelf.

"Shopkeeper."

The man didn't bother to raise his head, so he only replied: "Pick what you want on the wall, come over and pay for it, and if you break it, you will lose twice as much, and you will steal something and send it to the official." ”

The corners of Yu Shu's mouth twitched, did you do this kind of trading?

"I'm not here to buy a fan, I'm just going to ask, do the craftsmen in your store use mahogany roots to make fans?"

The middle-aged man's work stopped. Turning his head to look at her, "Peachwood root?" ”

"Yes, it's the peach root, did you do it?"

"It's done."

Hearing this, Yu Shu was not busy and happy. "I have a hundred-year-old peach root, and I want to make a man's folding fan, and the fan bone is nine inches and five inches long." Sixteen gears open and close, double fan, not easy to break, done? ”

"It's done."

Yu Shu saw that his face was honest, not like bragging, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Then I'll go back and get the wood, and then let's discuss it again, it's easy to talk about money, but don't break things." ”

She turned her head to leave, but heard a sneer behind her: "I said I can do it, did I promise to help you do it, I only sell fans in this store, no matter how custom-made, you like to buy those on the wall or not, slow down and don't give it away." ”

Yu Shu was stunned, turned around with a strange face, and looked at the man who lowered his head again to twist the copper wire, he was not very confident in his craftsmanship, but now he could be sure that such an arrogant person was really capable, she opened her mouth, her eyes flashed, and she put on a disdainful face:

"If you can't do it, you won't do it, what can you do."

Finally found a fan maker, where would she let go, thinking about provoking him, and then taking advantage of the situation to trap people, who knew that the other party seemed to close his ears, no matter what she said, no matter what she said, no longer bothered with her.

Yu Shu talked nonsense for a long time, her mouth was dry, and she had no choice but to go back first, and come back tomorrow, she didn't believe that she came to the door every day, and this person would not let go.

She turned and walked to the door, and saw a man coming in.

"Fifth uncle, I'll come—hey, Yu Operator?"

"Young Master Xin?"

Yu Shu didn't expect to meet Xin Liu's fifth cousin Xin Nianguang here, and was surprised for a moment, and then realized what the handsome young man in front of him was shouting.

Fifth uncle?

When Xin Lishan saw his nephew coming, he dropped the work in his hand, walked over, took two paper bags from Xin Nianguang's hand, glanced at Yu Shu, and asked his nephew:

"Do you recognize this noisy girl?"

Yu Shu squeezed two black lines on the door of his head.

Xin Nianguang looked at Yu Shu apologetically, and said to Xin Lishan: "Fifth uncle, this is Miss Yu, the two female operators in this year's Dayan exam, and she is a friend of the sixth sister. ”

kindly told Yu Shu: "This is my uncle." ”

At this time, Yu Shu wondered, as far as she knew, didn't Xin Liu's father say that there were four brothers, where did the fifth uncle come from.

This middle-aged man looks less than forty years old, with a rough face, how can he look like the master of the Xin family, but Xin Nianguang is also called his uncle, and he is clearly his father's own brother.

It's weird.

"Female operator?" Xin Lishan stared at Yu Shu a few more times, and then his expression became interested, "It's the one who didn't give Han Wenguang that old thing face and forcibly took away the number of several apprentices?" ”

Yu Shu listened to his tone, and said seriously, "Xin Wuye is wrong, I didn't take it by force, it was won by Zhengda Guangming, and their skills are not as good as others." ”

"Ha," Xin Lishan opened his mouth and smiled, and when he looked at Yu Shu again, he suddenly became more pleasing to his eyes, nodded, and said:

"You brought that piece of peach root over Ming'er and I'll take a look."

Yu Shu was happy now, she also secretly thought about making peace through Xin Liu, who knew that this Xin Wuye was moody, and a sentence was in line with his heart, and he directly agreed to her thing.

I'm afraid he'll change his mind again. Yu Shu hurriedly thanked him verbally, stepped aside, and said goodbye to the uncle and nephew and left first.

After she left, Xin Nianguang asked, "Fifth uncle, what happened just now?" ”

Xin Lishan told him that Yu Shu wanted to make a peach root fan, and then commented with interest:

"It's just that she's a rich lady messing around, it turns out that she is still half an expert, a hundred-year-old peach root, I told you, do you remember what's the use?"

Xin Nianguang thought about it. Said: "Peach wood is the essence of the five trees, and the hundred-year-old peach wood root has innate yang energy, which can suppress a hundred ghosts, and it is the most evil thing in the world." ”

"Not bad. It seems that you are not lazy," Xin Lishan patted his nephew on the shoulder with satisfaction, and walked in with him, "Let's go, go to the back, and show you a kite that I just changed, as long as you fly sixty-five feet, you can know whether the weather will be good or bad tomorrow." ”

"Fifth Uncle wait first, I have something to ask you to see." Xin Nianguang pulled him, took out a purse from his arms, opened it, and took out a string of crystal clear water beads.

Seeing that thing, Xin Lishan's eyes were stunned. Immediately took it and started to cool it, he closed his eyes and rubbed for a while, gasping. When I opened my eyes again, I was full of excitement:

"This, the good aura on this bead, although one point is natural, but nine points are artificial, strange, you raised it? Good boy, tell me about it. ”

Sure enough, Xin Nianguang's face suddenly became solemn, shook his head, and said:

"It's not me, it's the birthday gift that Miss Yu gave to the sixth sister, because Fei Fei she wore it for a few days, saying that she slept very well at night, so I was curious to borrow it, and sure enough, I slept well all night, and the next day I was in good spirits, I faintly felt that most of the aura on this bracelet was raised, so it was so powerful that it had such a miraculous effect, unlike jade, which had to endure to raise people. According to the fifth uncle, nine points of this are raised by people, which is really strange. ”

Their Xin family is a feng shui family, dating back to six generations ago, there was an ancestor guarding a jade mountain, and later generations, groping for "feng shui nourishing things, benefiting people with things" means, ups and downs, to now a place.

It can be said that when it comes to raising weapons, his Xin family is the first in the world, and the "KitKat Treasure Book" has been passed down for several generations, but the most exquisite means is only to raise the innate spiritual jade into eight points of divine energy.

This small string of beads, but there are nine points!

Of course, it can't be compared like this, the eight points raised by his Xin family can last a long time, but this string of beads can live for two months at most.

But the power is also here, because the aura continues to disperse, so that the wearer of the body benefits a lot, and it is the most obvious at the beginning.

"Fifth uncle," Xin Nianguang looked at the thoughtful Xin Lishan, and hesitated: "You said this, do you want to tell the family." ”

Xin Lishan came back to his senses, glanced at him, pinched the white crystal beads in his hand, and slowly sneered:

"Tell the family, and then let them coerce and lure them to ask for other people's nourishment methods, take them for their own use, and use them, so that the reputation of the Xin family can be further enhanced in the Twelve Mansions?"

Xin Nianguang saw that he was angry, and hurriedly smiled bitterly, "Don't worry, don't you say it?" ”

"Hmph," Xin Lishan stuffed the string of beads back to him, and said angrily: "People who learn from Yi are the most important people, I have taught you for three years, and you are still confused, you are really angry with me, take it back to Fei Fei, not many mouths." ”

Xin Nianguang nodded, and said worriedly: "What if Dad and they found out by themselves?" ”

Xin Lishan sneered: "The mansion is full of people, except for your ancestors, even your grandfather doesn't have the eyesight of a rebel like me!" ”

Xin Nianguang choked, and couldn't refute it, so he could only look helplessly at him, the fifth uncle who was expelled from the house more than ten years ago, and the top of the two lists of the former glorious ancestors. (To be continued.) )

PS: (The crystal bead is something to talk about, since it is a good thing, of course some people covet it, but not everyone knows the goods, the aura of this thing, is invisible and intangible, and evil, murderous, yin is the same, Xin Liu's physique is special, sensitive to yin, so the reaction to the dead is particularly large, and Xin Lao Wu is a strong physique to the aura, as for Yu Shu, shit, just an insulator.) ）
