Chapter 190: Night Market
In Bianliang City, there are many rivers, ditches everywhere, boats shuttle back and forth, and many buildings are built near the water.
Chen Shou took Xue Shao, and the two wandered to a riverbank, and happened to see a corner of the red mansion by the river, with wine flags hanging high and bright lights.
"Here it is."
Xue Shao nodded, she was wearing a yellow cedar, holding a double bun, looking like a little maid who accompanied her master to play, but unfortunately her appearance and temperament were too outstanding. No matter how much she dresses like a maid, she can't hide it.
She followed closely behind Chen Shou on the left, looking up at him from time to time, and reluctant to leave for a moment.
As soon as he saw a guest enter the door, the shopkeeper got up and hurriedly shouted to the two little two to come forward and wait.
"Guest, what to eat?"
"Try a copy of your sign." Chen Shou found a bench, sat down, and said with a smile.
Xue Shao consciously stood beside him, and Chen Shou patted the bench beside him, "It's not in the house, sit down and eat." ”
Xue Shao twisted slightly, but he didn't dare to be disobedient, and sat aside with his skirt.
The bench could make three or four people, but she was curled up to the very edge, and her ass was only halfway sitting.
Chen Shou smiled and said, "Get closer, don't be afraid, since you come out, you have to have fun." ”
Xue Shao sat closer at this time, and washed the dishes and chopsticks with hot water for Chen Shou, and at this time, Xiao Er came up with wine and food.
"Three fresh lotus cakes, five-spiced rabbit meat, and four treasures in the open envelope; These three things are the characteristics of our store, and you can use them slowly. ”
Chen Shou waved his hand, tore a piece of rabbit meat, and handed it to Xue Shao.
Xue Shao was flattered, tearing and eating little by little, looking timid, although it hurts, it doesn't seem very close.
Chen Shou drank a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Are you still afraid of me?" ”
"No... Unafraid. Xue Shao hurriedly put down the rabbit meat, waved his hand and said, "Master, servant... Not afraid. ”
Chen Shou poured her a glass of wine, nodded and said, "If two people can meet, it must be fate, there is good fate and bad fate." What kind of master, master, that's just the way this fate came, since they slept together, and talked about so many bad rules, how boring is life? You see the girl who knows the painting, when she sees me, her eyes are not eyes, her nose is not her nose, and I don't pay much attention to her. ”
Xue Shao was taken aback, Chen Shou had always been very fond of her in her heart but didn't dare to get too close.
Her favorite thing is to secretly look at Chen Shou behind the screen of the water pavilion. Look at him pointing out the country, just a few words, ruling the world, the dignitaries of the court, and the powerful ministers are all obedient to him.
The tragic experience since childhood made her yearn for the protection of powerful people, and only a powerful man in her hands could give her a sense of security.
Chen Shou is such a person, when he appeared, he was a little person with nothing. But he interrogated with a whip, and when he knelt at his feet, when Xue Shao raised his head and looked up, he suddenly felt that Chen Shou was so strong, and she was really relying on her.
Since then, the more humble she is in front of Chen Shou, the more secure she feels. Every time he served him, he trembled, like a devout believer serving his gods.
Her heart was warm, tears couldn't help but fill her eyes, and she had the courage to hold Chen Shou's hand tightly, and shouted: "Master... Xue Shao knew. ”
Chen Shou was a little speechless, this girl said she knew, but she was even more timid than just now. Holding his hand, he didn't dare to exert himself, just like an electric shock, still shaking.
Could it be that this little Oiran likes to bully her by herself? Shaking his head slightly, Chen Shou didn't care about her, and began to concentrate on tasting Bianliang's food.
The spiced rabbit meat is chewy and chewy, and the meat is tendony; The three fresh lotus flowers are crispy but not greasy, and the workmanship is fine.
The food in Bianliang is colorful and delicious, and it is an era of cooking explosion, and living in Bianliang, Tokyo is a blessing.
Chen Shou ate and drank to his heart's content, and took Xue Shao to the street, along the way were all stalls, and the brightly lit Bianliang City was very lively. There are incense medicine shops, storytelling stalls, mutton shops, as well as food stalls, flower stalls, hotels...
I never knew what a curfew was here, and the people liked to take the old and the young and the family to go out for a walk. The night business must be lit up, and the night market of Mahang Street is thriving, and there are many restaurants, and the lights are shining in the sky.
Night markets are often open until the third and fourth watches, and when they open again on the fifth watch, the lights are barely extinguished. The candle oil burned all night so that not a single mosquito could be seen in the entire street.
Walking through it, Chen Shou picked up some simple small jewelry, and also took a wooden hairpin and inserted it on the top of Xue Shao's head.
Xue Shao accompanied him, her heart was overjoyed, and after walking for a while, she found that her master was still a bargaining master, and when he caught a stall, he bargained with someone, and after a verbal battle, the price fell, and he turned his head and left.
The stall owner's murderous eyes were feverish, and Xue Shao had no choice but to pay for it, and after a while, he brought a bunch of useless things.
Although Huanxi is Huanxi, but he has taken too much, after all, he is an Oiran whose hands do not touch the spring water, and Xue Shao will soon get tired and his hands and feet are sore.
Looking at Chen Shou again, he didn't bring anything with him, and his interest was still very high.
Suddenly, a person around laughed and said, "Miss Xue, let me take it below." ”
Xue Shao was startled, and turned his head to see that it was Chen Shou's guard Zhang He, wearing ordinary civilian clothes, and he hadn't even noticed it.
"Thank you." Xue Shao thanked him and handed over the things to Zhang He, feeling a little more relaxed.
Since Chen Shou came to this world, there are few times when he is as relaxed as tonight, he temporarily forgot about his worries, immersed himself in the dream of Tokyo, looked up and saw the starry sky, and couldn't help but have a slight sense of amazement in his heart.
"Hey, Chen Shou!"
A cry of surprise suddenly sounded in his ears, Chen Shou turned his head to follow the voice, and it turned out to be Zhao Jinnu again.
The little princess wore a mask on top of her head, which she pushed to her forehead, revealing a childish, disgusting and pretty face.
"You're even here to visit the night market." Zhao Jinnu stepped forward and said with a smile.
She knew very few people, and when she occasionally met an acquaintance, she was naturally very happy.
Chen Shou looked left and right, and said with a smile: "Palace... Miss Zhao, are you alone? ”
"Who else are you looking for?" Zhao Jinnu suddenly realized and said with a smile: "She didn't come." ”
Chen Shou's heart moved, Xiao Nizi came out by herself, without the protection of Concubine Wu, wouldn't it be his best chance.
In the past, every time she had a crooked mind, Concubine Wu would protect Ji Luo by her side like a hen guarding her chicks.
Even if he said a word, it had to be under her nose, and there was no chance at all.
Chen Shou's heart moved, and when he looked around, there should be a guard of the martial family, hidden in the crowd, but he didn't recognize it.
He chuckled, "Meeting is fate, please Miss Zhao for a supper, I don't know if I can appreciate my face?" ”
