No.306 Six women walk together
Not long after Zhou Boyan took Qingyang and them out, Qingshu also went out with the maid guards. Steward Zhou didn't follow today, because there was something in the eldest princess's mansion that he needed to deal with.
Qing Shu came to Yipinlou, and immediately a guy invited Qing Shu to a private room on the third floor. The private room has a large space, and the furnishings inside have a strong atmosphere of literati and artists. At this time, there were already three young ladies with different looks in the private room.
The gentle and lovely Gu Qingqiu got up to greet him, "Sister Shu, you can count it." ”
Qing Shu smiled lightly and said in a joking tone, "I didn't expect my sister to come so early, I knew that Lu Dao would definitely go out a moment early." Sister Qingqiu wouldn't have deliberately said the time late, and then let her sister be late, right? Actually, she wasn't late, she came at the right time. Moreover, today's appointment was made yesterday at the wedding banquet of Gu Ruixing.
Yesterday, at the wedding banquet at the same table, Gu Qingqiu introduced several young ladies at the same table to Qingshu. Several of them were very friendly to Qingshu and invited Qingshu to their home. When Gu Qingqiu saw it, he said that he would not talk about being a guest at home beforehand, and suggested that he could go shopping together to buy some things from his daughter's house. At that time, everyone at the table was in favor. Gu Qingqiu struck while the iron was hot and said, let's do it tomorrow. Because Qingshu will return to his hometown in a few days. At the place of the meeting, Gu Qingqiu reported to Yipinlou, she said that she would book a private room in advance, and they would be there when they arrived.
Gu Qingqiu smiled playfully, "Is my sister so bad?" Sister Shu slandered people. ”
Qing Shu smiled, "Okay, good, good, it's all my fault, it's me who is late, and it's me who blamed Sister Qingqiu." ”
The door behind her rang, and the woman's voice was as graceful as a yellow warbler, "If Miss Gu is late, then am I even late?" ”
Everyone looked at the door and saw Zhou Qingyilian, the young lady of the Amberhou Mansion, moving lightly into the private room.
Gu Qingqiu said angrily, "Okay, okay, no one is late, it's my sister who came early." Quick, two sisters, sit here. ”
Gu Qingyi and An Lanzhi, who came with Gu Qingqiu, smiled and asked them to come and sit down.
Everyone sat down, greeted each other, and discussed where to go while eating tea and snacks. I waited another quarter of an hour or so, but no one came.
Fourteen-year-old Gu Qingyi was a straight man, and said to her cousin Gu Qingqiu, "Sister, don't wait! The time for the appointment has passed, but Miss Chen and Miss Jiang have not come, and they don't even deliver a word, I'm afraid it will be deliberate. Let's not wait. ”
Gu Qingqiu thought the same thing in his heart, but he didn't say that, but poked his cousin's forehead with a smile, "You girl, what nonsense!" Who hasn't been able to meet the unexpected. She was very dissatisfied with Miss Chen and Miss Jiang at this time. I don't want to come, I refused yesterday, why agree, and no one forced me, everything is voluntary. agreed, but he didn't come, and he didn't send anyone to say anything, which was a bit contemptible.
Gu Qingyi stretched out her tongue and stopped talking.
Zhou Qingyi nodded to a maid beside her, "Go outside and take a look, are Miss Jiang and Miss Chen here?" After sending the maid out, she turned her face to face Qing Shu and said, "Maybe I can't find a private room!" Let's wait another quarter of an hour. If you don't come, then don't wait, we just have to play by ourselves. Do you think it's good? ”
Gu Qingqiu said yes, An Lanzhi also agreed, and Qingshu naturally agreed.
In the process of waiting, Qing Shu unintentionally stroked his hair, causing half of the jade bracelet on his wrist to be exposed. She immediately lowered her hand, and the jade bracelet disappeared into the wide sleeve again.
An Lanzhi snorted softly, "Miss Gu, wait, the bracelet you are wearing is so beautiful, can you show me?" ”
Qing Shu was a little surprised, but he didn't refuse, "It's okay." With that, he took a smooth jade bracelet from his wrist and handed it to An Lanzhi, who was sitting opposite.
An Lanzhi took it with a happy face, looked at it and looked at it, "Huh! When I saw it just now, I felt a slight purple light on the edges. It's strange that it's gone. ”
Gu Qingyi burst out laughing, "Miss An, you are not old, but your eyes are spent first, what can I do?" How do you get married? ”
An Lanzhi blushed, "you, look for a fight, right?" Then embarrassedly returned the jade bracelet to Qing Shu.
Qing Shu took it, put it back on his hand, and said, "It's not Miss An who is dazzled. ”
These words attracted the attention of four pairs of eyes. The owner of one of the eyes, An Lanzhi, said quickly, "What kind of treasure is this?" It's really purple at the edges. ”
Qing Shu said solemnly, "This is a jade bracelet worn by a fairy in the sky, naturally it is not ordinary." It absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon, and occupies a trace of fairy energy, and after a long time, it becomes a fairy weapon. Then he raised an eyebrow, "This is a priceless treasure, I must hide it carefully so that it will not be stolen by thieves." ”
Xiaojuan and Xiaoyu were stunned. Isn't this a gift from the young lady to the young lady? This is worn by a fairy again, and it is fairy, what's going on?
Gu Qingyi and An Lanzhi, who didn't know it, gasped.
"Oh my God! There are immortal weapons in the world! Gu Qingyi was completely shocked.
"Oh my God, oh my God, I just touched the bracelet that the fairy was wearing, I must be dreaming." An Lanzhi was as excited as if she was something.
Gu Qingqiu and Zhou Qingyi looked at Qing Shu in disbelief.
Hehe...... Qing Shu laughed out loud, "I was deceived, I was deceived, hehe......"
Gu Qingyi and An Lanzhi came back to their senses and denounced Qingshu for being too bad.
Qing Shu stopped laughing and pointed to his clothes, "What color is my clothes?" ”
An Lanzhi said angrily, "Naturally, it's purple-red. ”
"That's not the end of it. The garment is fuchsia, so the bracelets worn on the wrists give the illusion of purple light at the edges. That's all. ”
Talking and laughing, a quarter of an hour has passed, and the maid sent by Zhou Qingyi to wait for others has not yet come up.
Zhou Qingyi said, "Let's go, don't wait." In my heart, I secretly put Miss Chen and Miss Jiang on the list of refusal to go back and forth. She had already guessed. Miss Chen and Miss Jiang agreed with great interest yesterday, but what they did was only superficial. In fact, they were afraid that they looked down on Gu Qingshu, so they didn't even say a word in vain. If they dare to do so, they may think that no one else, like them, will not come to the appointment. She lamented the self-righteousness of Miss Chen and Miss Jiang, but she was afraid that she had offended Gu Qingqiu and did not know it.
No one present was a fool, so they naturally guessed the intentions of Miss Chen and Miss Jiang. Among them, Gu Qingqiu was the most annoyed. When Miss Chen and Miss Jiang did this, it was not Gu Qingshu's face that was refuted, but the face of her, the leader. This is embarrassing her! This account, and write it down first, and there will be a time to pay tribute to them. She suppressed her annoyance in her heart, smiled like a flower, and took Qingshu and them downstairs and walked out of Yipinlou.
A richly dressed young lady was confronted. She ran forward in a few steps like a child, smiled and grabbed Qing Shu's arm, "Sister Shu, I almost missed it with you!" ”
Seeing Lord Yun, Gu Qingqiu and the others involuntarily took a few steps back, feeling uneasy.
Qing Shu looked at the county lord of Yun, who was far away from the falling cloud bun and became more beautiful and pure, and asked with a smile, "How does the county lord know that I am here?" ”
Lord Yun only had Qing Shu in his eyes, and no one else looked at it. She smiled and replied, "My cousin told me that I could come here to find you." ”
It turned out to be Zhou Boyan. Qing Shu smiled and asked Gu Qingqiu and the others on the side, "Is it okay to add another person?" ”
Gu Qingqiu and the others were very jealous of Lord Yun's delicate willfulness, but it was difficult to refuse. Coupled with Qingshu's very happy appearance, he couldn't refuse. Gu Qingqiu is the leader, so he naturally wants to speak, "There are so many people, everyone says it's not right?" ”
Zhou Qingyi said with a smile, "That's nature." ”
In this way, the five-person walk becomes the six-person walk. Coupled with the maids they each brought, this number adds up to a lot. Except for Qingshu, everyone else came in a soft sedan car. Lord Yun gave up his soft sedan chair and sat in Qingshu's carriage. Gu Qingqiu and the others looked at Lord Yun's sticky appearance in surprise, and each set off in their own soft sedan chair.
The girl's family likes nothing more than those places, rouge shops, jewelry shops, silk and embroidery villages, etc. Lord Yun and Qing Shu talked and laughed, and because of Qing Shu's relationship, they got along well with Gu Qingqiu. Along the way, she didn't show any coquettish willfulness, but chattered a little noisy like an overly lively girl.
Qing Shu has been paying attention to Gu Qingqiu's expressions. She found that Gu Qingqiu and the others were cautious in their words and deeds at first, and they were very careful when facing Lord Yun. Later, they became more and more relaxed, and they could discuss with Lord Yun what was good and what was not. I have to say that she is really relieved. If the two parties didn't accommodate each other, and they really wanted to make trouble with each other, she would be sad.
It's almost noon. Gu Qingqiu asked, "Do you want to go to another shop, or go back to Yipinlou for lunch?" I said hello and the private room was still reserved for us! ”
Without waiting for others to express their opinions, Zhou Qingyi said, "Moxiangzhai will have new calligraphy and paintings hanging out today." Would you like to come with me? ”
Qingshu didn't understand calligraphy and painting, she could go or not, so she didn't say anything, meaning to listen to everyone. Lord Yun's choice is simpler, she takes Qingshu as the head of the horse.
Gu Qingqiu and An Lanzhi are somewhat interested in calligraphy and painting. So, everyone went to Moxiangzhai.
The shopkeeper obviously recognized Zhou Qingyi, so he asked them to wait for a while, and then arranged it in person. After a while, he returned and made a gesture of invitation, "Ladies and gentlemen, please, there is no one over there." He had just passed, and he personally asked the scholars who were appreciating calligraphy and paintings to make way for the place.
Even if the calligraphy and painting side has been cleared. Ke Moxiang Zhai suddenly came to six noble ladies who were obviously not low-born, which naturally attracted the attention of scholars and sons in Zhai. They whispered about it, and naturally there were also people who inquired about their identities.
In the corner stood an emaciated scholar, no older than twenty. He was wearing a dark cyan scholar's robe, and he looked good, but his complexion was not very good, like a person who had just recovered from a long illness. He held a knife of rice paper in his hand, staring at Qing Shu's back in a daze, unable to return to his senses for a long time.
At this time, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy who was also dressed as a scholar walked up to the man, "Big brother, what are you looking at?" As he asked, he followed the emaciated scholar's gaze. Only then did they find that there were several young ladies looking at calligraphy and painting more than ten meters away from them. Looking at the dresses of those young ladies, they are naturally not ordinary ladies. "Big brother."
The emaciated scholar came back to his senses and asked uncomfortably, "Jingnan, have you found the book you wanted?" ”
The young scholar named Jingnan looked disappointed, "I was bought." Big brother, since the rice paper has been chosen, let's go back! After coming out for a long time, my aunt will be worried. ”
The emaciated scholar nodded lonely, and then the two of them walked to the counter to make the silver money on rice paper. When he was about to leave Mo Xiangzhai, he turned his head and looked in the direction of Qing Shu again. Coincidentally, Qing Shu was turning around. He felt that Qing Shu had seen him, he unconsciously turned his face back, and hurried out of the door of Moxiangzhai. In a panic, he collided with a scholar who was just about to enter the door and almost fell down.
The young man named Jingnan quickly supported him, quickly said sorry to the scholar, and helped the person to leave.
Qing Shu didn't notice that someone was looking at her from beginning to end, and just whispered to the Lord Yun beside her.
It was Xiao Juan, who hurriedly said to Xiao Yu to go and come, and chased after him. It's just that when she got out of the door of Mo Xiangzhai, no matter how carefully she observed, she could no longer find the figure of the strange scholar. She frowned and returned to Qing Shu's side.
Zhou Qingyi stayed in front of a painting of landscapes, flowers and birds for two quarters of an hour, and then turned around with a melancholy face and whispered, "I'm optimistic, let's go!" ”
Qing Shu glanced at the inscription of the painting that Zhou Qingyi was concerned about, "Mr. Zhulin" and a private seal of "Mr. Zhulin's seal".
As soon as they stepped out of the threshold of Moxiangzhai, they were greeted by two sons, one thin and one fat.
When the thin boy saw one of the six young ladies approaching him, he seemed stunned, stopped in distraction, and stood less than three meters away from them.
The fat one smiled strangely, "It turned out to be Miss Zhou from the Hou Mansion, disrespectful, disrespectful." "How wrong it sounds.
Zhou Qingyi lowered his head and did not speak. The maid who followed her to the left took a few steps forward, and said with a stiff face, "Good dog is not in the way, get out of the way." ”
The fat guy sneered, "Get down, there's no place for you to talk here." Besides, you robbed Ben Gongzi of his words, and Ben Gongzi was very unhappy. He scolded everyone in front of him and scolded him as a dog, including the nameless Qingshu and others.
Lord Yun is not willing to suffer, just about to exit, but Qing Shu is tugging on her sleeve under his head. She looked at Qing Shu puzzled. Qing Shu shook his head at her. She didn't understand, but she suppressed her anger and didn't have a seizure.
Gu Qingqiu spoke, "Jiang Zhenghao, pay attention to Miss Ben." ”
The fat boy sneered again, and then patted the thin boy on the shoulder, "Brother Yu, do you hear, there is a girl warning me." Funny, you say, isn't it funny? ”
And this brother is staring at Zhou Qingyi, who bowed his head and was silent.
A golden thing flashed, flew past the woman, and smashed on the head of the fat boy Jiang Zhenghao, and with the soft cry of the fat boy, it fell to the ground. The thing rolled on the ground a few times, then lay on the ground and didn't move.
Qing Shu looked at the golden bracelet lying on the ground, speechless for a while.
The fat boy's face turned red, "Who?" Who smashed Ben Gongzi? Stand up. ”
