Chapter VII Inspections and Visits
At the beginning of the lanterns, incense is everywhere, and the Luanfeng Pavilion is staggered, and there are warblers and swallows everywhere, and there is a paradise on earth, and even the two big red lanterns at the door look so charming.
Liu Haoyu sent the two entourages around him away and came to the small attic alone, the attic was empty, only a faint fragrance was left in the air, there was a quaint teapot on the round table in the center, it looked like bamboo and non-bamboo from a distance, I don't know what material it was made of, and I saw that the pot was carved with bamboo patterns and two mountains according to the situation, and the magnificent atmosphere jumped out of the homeopathic atmosphere, and the indigo teacup next to it was slowly hot and windless, and you can taste the aroma of tea from the air when you smell it. People can't help but want to enjoy it. I don't know if it was the aroma of tea that bewitched Liu Haoyu, he actually picked up the cup of tea on the table and put it under his nose and sniffed it gently, looking very intoxicated.
"Liu Gongzi, seeing your infatuated appearance, you must be particularly fond of this thing, even the footsteps of the little woman walking have not been heard, since this is the case, the little woman does not win the love, if you don't dislike it, today I will be an adult, I am willing to give these two things to you, I don't know if you like this cup of tea, or this vulgar utensil?"
When Liu Haoyu heard this, he hurriedly put the teacup on the stone table, followed the sound, and saw a beautiful woman dressed in pale yellow embroidery covering her mouth and chuckling, and the two maids standing next to her also lowered their heads as if they were laughing at their indecent behavior just now. Liu Haoyu lowered his head in shame and hugged his fists and said: "Back to the pavilion master, I was rude just now, and I was fascinated by the fragrant fragrance of the tea in this cup for a while, and I didn't notice that the pavilion master was quietly coming, and I hope to forgive me." ”
"Liu Gongzi is serious, you came late at night today, presumably it was because I asked you some time ago that I already had an eyebrow. Can you tell me now? The woman said in a whisper, Yulian slowly came to the stone table and sat down, picked up the teacup that Liu Haoyu had just put on the table, and took a shallow sip.
"Yes, in the following investigation, this person is definitely not the eyeliner that the opponent planted in Yichun Hall, this person has an innocent background, no power and power, and a cowardly personality It is difficult to become a big weapon, except for a little knowledge of some herbs, there is no strength. I don't know what to do with this person next. ”
"So, how is the young man's kung fu?"
"I didn't have any effort, I asked him to design a roof repair on a rainy day, who knew that this kid actually fell off the roof!"
"Falling? Even people who are usually a little more athletic shouldn't fall, right, so is there any injury after falling? ”
"It's lucky, I held a big oil-paper umbrella in my hand, cushioned it a little, and lay down for three days, and it was fine."
After hearing Liu Haoyu's evaluation of this person, the woman said tastelessly: "Since the origin is innocent, powerless, powerless, and has no effort, I will leave him alone, seeing that the day is coming, and no mistakes have been avoided, as long as we don't interfere with what we do, let him go!" ”
"So what's next for you?"
"Come on, go and get my treasured green tea, and then give this teacup to Liu Gongzi, since Liu Gongzi can't put it down, why should I take the love of others, I Xiya has always liked to do the beauty of adults. Luan Feng Pavilion is already like this. Then he got up and left. One of the two little maids next to him stayed here to pack up the tea set, and the other left quickly with Xiya.
When Liu Haoyu heard this, he was about to say something to Xiya, but when he saw Xiya leave in a hurry without looking back, a sense of loss jumped on his face. I saw that the little maid stepped forward, took out a small box of carefully placed the teacup on the table, and bowed sideways and said, "Young Master Liu, please wait a moment, the slave will go and get the tea." ”
Liu Haoyu absentmindedly waved his hand to signal the maid to leave on his own, and he was the only one left in the empty attic, staring at the tea cup on the table as if he had lost his soul.
"Sister Ya, your attitude today is completely different from that day, the slave doesn't understand very well? Did that man really like the teacup and the tea leaves? The maid who followed him when he got down to the attic asked in a low voice. Xiya looked at the little maid and smiled, and walked forward without speaking.
The first rays of dawn in the morning, tearing through the boundless darkness, the originally silent street has been shuttled back and forth, the old Liu Tou picked the pair of goods and waited at the door of Yichun Hall early, a few days of rain have already made him miserable, the basket on the right is full of baked cakes and steamed buns, and a simple stove on the left has hot tofu brains, seeing more and more pedestrians on the road, Lao Liu Tou opened his throat and shouted: "Baked cakes steamed buns tofu brains,!" In the past, as long as he shouted here, it wouldn't be long before someone would come out, but today there was no one in the figure, Lao Liu Tou stretched his neck to look inside, only to see that there were a few handymen cleaning inside, Lao Liu Tou stepped forward and asked with a smile on his face: "Little brother, just baked baked cakes, steamed buns, tofu brains, come to a bowl to fill your stomach?" “
A handyman didn't raise his head and replied angrily: "Go and go, don't you see that you are busy here, how can you have time to eat, you also hurry up and pick up things and leave, today there are government people coming to inspect, if you collide, you can't afford it." “
When the old Liu heard this, he quickly turned around and wanted to carry the burden to another house, but there was a sound of horses' hooves in his ears, and when he looked up, he saw two horses coming slowly, one of them was wearing a Confucian robe and three long beards was Zhu Zhilian, and the other horse sat on this forty-year-old outside, dressed in the official mansion, wearing an official hat A middle-aged man, his eyes are blazing, and the light is flashing, so that people can see that he is a shrewd and capable person, the two came to the door of Yichun Hall in a blink of an eye, there are already people waiting outside in the hall, and when they saw people coming to the door, they hurriedly went up to hold the horse rope, The two turned over and dismounted and stood in front of the steps, Zhu Zhilian hurriedly said: "Yesterday, I flew a pigeon to pass the book, so that people have already prepared everything to be investigated, and I am tired of waiting for a while. This side please, raised his hand and made a gesture of please.
The middle-aged man looked at the old Liu Tou who was still standing next to him stupidly and said: "Yichun Hall is really popular with the people, and the hawkers have all been put at the door to sell, but they have not been driven away!" ”
Zhu Zhilian hurriedly laughed and said: "The patrol envoy is spurring it, how can our poor mountain and remote land be compared with the important place of Kyoto where you are on an errand." There is no shortage of people who are in a remote area and rush overnight, sometimes they come here before dawn, the surrounding shops have not yet opened, and the stomach is empty at this time, with these hawkers can really help them, Yichun Hall aims to benefit the neighbors, but it can't just shout slogans, to do it, maybe I did something inconsiderate, and ask the inspector to correct and teach. ”
The middle-aged man smiled slightly and said, "Hall Master, don't be so polite, what kind of friendship do you and I have, wouldn't you be out of sight when you say this?" After speaking, he walked to the hall, Zhu Zhilian saw that the man did not ask too much about this, so he ordered the handymen on both sides to lead the horse to the backyard to raise it, and hurriedly chased after the order.
Old Liu Tou stayed where he was in a panic, and he didn't dare to leave without permission, and after a while, Yan Shisan walked out, walked straight to Old Liu Tou, put one arm around Lao Liu Tou's shoulder, and whispered like a drizzle: "You have already seen what happened just now, you said that if you leave now, our Hall Master Zhu will not be able to explain to the inspector, are you right?" Besides, if someone wants to ask you later, it's not appropriate if you're not here!
Lao Liu replied tremblingly: "Uncle, will someone come to ask you later?" I don't know anything, I'm just an old man who sells baked cakes. ”
Yan Shisan gently patted his shoulder with his hand and said, "What I'm talking about is just in case, in case someone asks, you should say this, it was the hall master who instructed you hawkers to set up stalls here, so that it is convenient for patients who come from afar to fill their stomachs, do you understand when I say this?" ”
Old Liu's head nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and he said: "I understand, I understand!" ”
"Okay, it's easy to do if you understand, don't go anywhere today, just hold a stall here. If you mess things up for me, there will be no good fruit to eat! Yan Shisan's tone of words was no longer the gentle drizzle just now, but more like giving an order to Lao Liu. After saying that, he turned around and walked into Yichun Hall, leaving Lao Liu Tou alone to stand there stupidly!
