Chapter Fifty-Three: The Best Gift

Huaizuo is the famous capital, and Zhuxi is the best place.

The great poet Li Bai once had a poem "Sending Meng Haoran to Guangling", the old man left the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and the fireworks came down to Yangzhou in March, depicting the season of going to Yangzhou to play.

The great poet Du Mu dreamed of Yangzhou for ten years, and won the name of Qinglou Bo Xing to write the prosperity of Yangzhou.

Liu Song drove the carriage into the gate of Yangzhou City, gently pulled the reins of the horse, and stopped the horse.

"Young master, we have arrived in Yangzhou, and now we have just passed the gate of Yangzhou City, should we go directly to the shopkeeper's house or take a stroll in Yangzhou City first."

The three of them rushed from Jinling to Yangzhou has been three poles in the day, Yangzhou city is crowded, people come and go on the streets, peddlers and pawns, merchants gather, a lively and prosperous high-spirited scene.

Liu Mingzhi put down the poetry book in his hand for the first time and poked his head out to look at the lively Yangzhou City.

Liu Mingzhi himself knows how many catties he has, and when it comes to business, compared to the old man, he is just a little sparrow meeting Kunpeng, what level is still clear in his heart, the so-called knowing son Mo Ruo's father, the old man will not know whether he is this material, and the so-called going to Yangzhou to deal with business matters is just an excuse.

It's just an excuse to stay away from Jinling, a place of right and wrong, Liu Mingzhi thought very clearly on the way, and as for the reason for leaving Jinling, Liu Mingzhi couldn't think of it even after racking his brains.

Just because he dedicated a poem to a Qinglou woman, the old man sent himself to Yangzhou City?

Well, that's exactly what happened.

Therefore, if you think too much about simple things, they will become more complicated.

Qi Yun rode on a horse like a guard guarding the side of the carriage, and saw the scene of shops and stalls everywhere in Yangzhou City, the woman's nature was exposed, and she was interested in seeing everything.

Jumping out of the carriage, Liu Mingzhi moved his body, in a closed place like the carriage, after sitting for a long time, he had a sore back, so it was much more comfortable to look at Qi Yun riding a horse?

Comfortable riding? Qi Yun wanted to spit out Liu Mingzhi's face of saliva, riding a horse all the way bumpy, his buttocks hurt, plus Jinling to Yangzhou, his whole body fell apart, and he was comfortable.

"Master, I have been to Hangzhou, played in Suzhou, but I have never been to Yangzhou, since I have come, I might as well take a good turn, and live up to the good will of God." Brother Qi, what do you think? ”

Qi Yun also turned over and dismounted and moved his body: "I came to Yangzhou purely for fun, everything is subject to Brother Liu's arrangement." ”

"Then go shopping." After speaking, he threw the book in his hand into the carriage, and took the lead to take the lead in looking at the scenery in Yangzhou City.

Touching this mask from time to time and looking at that Tang man, Liu Mingzhi seemed to have long forgotten what happened in Jinling.

"Brother Qi, how do you say this Yangzhou City compares to our Jinling?"

After a long time, no one answered: "Brother Qi....... Kindness? ”

It turned out that Qi Yun was picking up a hairpin in front of a jewelry vendor and looking through it.

"The looks of the big men still hide the girl's heart, and what is not good to look at jewelry."

Liu Mingzhi leaned forward: "I said Brother Qi, your dignified seven-foot man won't be interested in the things of these women's families, right?" Saying that, he habitually wrapped his right hand around Qi Yun's shoulder, just like the future generations treated their brothers.

Qi Yun was looking at the carved hairpin in his hand, his body suddenly stiffened, he turned his head coldly and glanced at Liu Mingzhi, who was looking at the jewelry, and put the hairpin in his hand back.

The right hand quietly touched the sword at his waist, the scabbard of the sword was simple and dull, a loud sword groan came, the sword was half withdrawn, and in an instant, the cold sword qi came, and the blade flashed a cold light in the sunlight.

A breeze blew and blew the silk belt around Qi Yun's waist, and the belt was driven by the wind and swept towards the blade of the sword, and without a sound, the belt broke off and fell with the wind.

With such a simple and unpretentious scabbard, who would have thought that the sword in the scabbard would be a divine soldier who sharpens iron like clay and makes quick decisions.

"Ah........ Ha ha...... Unexpectedly, the weather in Yangzhou is so much colder than Jinling, it seems that you have to wear two more clothes, and it will be uncomfortable when you are cold. ”

Liu Mingzhi, who was three meters away, licked his face and smiled at Qi Yun, who was holding the hilt of the sword.

With a sound of the sword being put into the sheath, Qi Yun picked up the hairpin again and looked at it: "Hey, slut." ”

"Bah, reckless man, if the master can beat you, you have to lie in bed for three years, I really think that the master is afraid of you, and the young master is a person who knows the times for Junjie."

"Hey, come here."

"Well, Brother Qi, you command."

"I want to buy a hairpin for my sister as a gift, you pick one."

"Why, what does it matter to me that you buy a gift for Sister Ling, I'm just an outsider, you can buy it if you want to, let me pick anything."

Qi Yun's hand touched the hilt of the sword again: "There is so much nonsense, let you pick and choose." As he spoke, he gestured to the stall: "Pick." ”

"Pick, pick right away."

Liu Mingzhi slowly walked to the front of the stall and recalled Qi Yun's appearance, will this tough girl use this thing? Recalling the first two times she saw Qi Yun, she casually tied three thousand green silk with a ribbon, and the jewelry really didn't seem to have been brought.

"How's this one?" Qi Yun handed over a mahogany hairpin carved with butterflies.

I have to say that the boss's craftsmanship is very good, these hairpins are either carved with flowers and plants, or birds and beasts, each of them looks natural, as if they were born, it can be seen that the boss's craftsmanship is not trivial.

"Brother Qi, I have to say that your vision is not very good, Ling Mei has ice muscles and snow bones, and her complexion is as white as snow, you choose such a mahogany butterfly hairpin and Ling Mei is not worthy at all."

"Then you pick, I'll see what kind of good things you can pick."

Liu Mingzhi looked through all the hairpins carefully, and found that they didn't seem to match Qi Yun's temperament, not that these bosses' careful finished products were not good-looking, but they were too good-looking, but they didn't match Qi Yun's temperament.

"Why are you a big man picking things so hard, are you optimistic about it?"

"What do you call me a big man, just like you are a woman, didn't you just turn over and over and not choose a good one? And said me. ”

Qi Yun knew that he was speechless, and he didn't dare to answer Liu Mingzhi's words.

"No, no, none of these hairpins of Brother Qi seem to be in line with Ling Mei, Ling Mei's temperament is like that. How do you describe that? ”

"Temperament, what temperament?"

"Well, the 10,000-year-old Tianshan Snow Lotus, pure, elegant, can be viewed from a distance and cannot be blasphemed, these hairpins are too vulgar."

The boss couldn't stand it anymore, and the two of them turned over everything but didn't buy it, and no one could stand it.

"Two sons, the little old man still has to do business, if you two don't buy it, don't delay other guests."

Liu Mingzhi also knew that this was inappropriate, and consciously stepped aside.

"I don't care, before I left home, I promised my sister that I would buy a gift for her, you have to pick one."

"What's the matter? You have to pick one, you're too strong, that's your sister, why should I pick your sister's gift, she's not my mother-in-law........ Po .........."

Afraid that the air would suddenly be quiet, Qi Yun looked at Liu Mingzhi with blinking eyes.

Liu Mingzhi took a breath: "Then what?" Under the marriage agreement, your sister seems to be really my mother-in-law in name? ”

Qi Yun was stunned for a moment and nodded innocently.

Your sister: "Mother-in-law, my mother-in-law?" Woe to the family! ”

"What did you say?"

"I said blessings, this is my Liu Mingzhi's blessings, I haven't done good things in my eighteen lifetimes, no, eighteen generations of ancestors have accumulated virtue."

"Really?"

"Heaven and earth can be learned."

"Where's the gift?"

"Gifts, gifts? There you have it, you wait. ”

Liu Mingzhi got into the carriage and took out a wooden hairpin wrapped in a handkerchief from the bookcase, this is the first time he went out of the house to buy the wooden hairpin on the street, thinking about giving it to his future daughter-in-law, this is good, and it is also given to his daughter-in-law: "This plain hairpin must be matched." ”

Qi Yun took the wooden hairpin and rubbed it: "The protection is so good, which girl are you going to give it to?" ”

"Collection, collection, giving it to Ling Mei must be a perfect match."

Qi Yun pulled out the jasper hairpin on his head, and the three thousand green silks immediately rippled, and a few naughty strands of hair floated onto Liu Mingzhi's face, making Liu Mingzhi itchy and brushing it off.

"Brother Qi, although you don't look good, and even a little bumpy, but the hair quality of this hair is really similar to Sister Ling, Qi Tingshi's genes are not said."

Qi Yun tied up her hair and inserted it with a plain hairpin: "This is the best gift I have ever received." ”

"What?"

"I mean, I'm not much different from my sister's hair, and she's going to like it."
