13. On March 23, it was cloudy and there were still flowers.
The clouds are open and rainy, and the spring breeze is warm.
It's one of the few good days of spring in the south, and every house is full of stuffy stuff in front of their doors, some of which are food and some of which are bedding.
Song Beiyun followed behind Ah Qiao with a mattress, watching her set up two bamboo pennies, and then dry her clothes and pants on it.
"The quilt should be sunburned more, and it is especially warm at night." Ah Qiao dried her clothes, turned her head and glanced at Song Beiyun: "You are standing stupidly, come and help." ”
"I'm holding something."
"Oops!" Ah Qiao stomped his feet: "Why are you so stupid, hang it out!" ”
Song Beiyun nodded again and again, and hurriedly did what Ah Qiao said, maybe he could do penicillin, aspirin, and even get a good medicine for malaria from Artemisia bitter, but doing housework was definitely his weakness.
So what is the need for a woman in this family, even if this woman is still a sixteen or seventeen girl, but if it weren't for her, Song Beiyun himself wouldn't know what kind of sloppy life he would become, and he was managed by Ah Qiao, although he walked out of the house Although it was not a brocade dress, he was also clean and energetic, so as not to attract people to look down on.
"Eh, why is your father willing to let you come to me? In the past, you had to be sneaky. ”
Ah Qiao's hands were busy, but his mouth didn't stop: "It's not the ability of the silver, my father sees the silver, and his eyes are glowing green, where can he take care of my daughter." ”
She was a little resentful when she spoke, but Song Beiyun thought it was very good, Ah Qiao's father was a bastard himself, because of his good gambling and drinking, he forced Ah Qiao's mother to elope with Zhuangzi overnight, and then ignored Ah Qiao, although Ah Qiao was nominally Aunt Hong's maid over the years, she was basically raised by Aunt Hong as her own girl.
Later, seeing Ah Qiao grow up, her uncompetitive father came over again and asked her to do this and that, all she was thinking about was promising her daughter to a big family in exchange for more money.
Originally, it was intended to be promised to Brother Yusheng, but Brother Yusheng is not only a good person, he is also a gentleman, and after reprimanding Ah Qiao's father with righteous words, the matter was abandoned. Didn't Song Beiyun suddenly appear after that, his father felt that Song Beiyun was particularly an eyesore, and he didn't let Ah Qiao see him openly and secretly, but after the more than 100 taels of silver arrived this time, he obviously turned a blind eye.
This is really selling his daughter, right? But isn't this good, anyway, Song Beiyun is too lazy to see Ah Qiao's father, that person's face is very ugly, seeing Xiaoli forgetting righteousness, talking about vanity and love prosperity, lingering in the kiln of the Qinglou, flowers and birds wandering, and he doesn't pee to see what he is, but after all, it is Ah Qiao's father, so he can't break one of his legs.
"My father got the money, he didn't do the work, he changed his clothes and went to the city, who can not know his careful thoughts."
Ah Qiao said dissatisfiedly, and then changed the conversation and pointed at Song Beiyun: "If you go to the Qinglou Restaurant, don't blame me for breaking your legs." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, I'm the only one in the world, and other women don't fall into the eyes of the law."
"Oh, man's mouth, deceitful ghost. I don't believe this nonsense, I'm not that ignorant, when you have a fame, I will find a two-room concubine for you, but you can't touch those water-based poplar things, that is, the nest of deboning. If you really become like my father, don't blame me for following my mother's example and leaving. ”
Song Beiyun sighed and held Ah Qiao's hand: "Over the years, have you seen me talk to a few women?" The pharmacy owner is a big beauty, and you see I'm just a gentleman with her. ”
"Believe it or not, my mother said that men can't be trusted, anyway, I can stare at you, anything, but you are not allowed to have dealings with the sluts in those fireworks lands."
Song Beiyun was helpless, sighed and said: "Yes, yes, I won't go to that kind of place if you ask me to go, it's boring." By the way, I will go out with Brother Yusheng in the afternoon, which may take two days. ”
"Then you can go."
"Huh?" Song Beiyun looked at Ah Qiao in surprise: "You don't even ask me where I'm going?" ”
"You men's affairs, I don't care what I do, let alone with Brother Yusheng, so what's there to worry about?"
Oh, it's because of Brother Yusheng...... Although he is not a good seedling for the exam, his words and deeds, every move is in accordance with the righteousness of the master, the young and the young are orderly, the advance and retreat are well-founded, the people are trustworthy, and the courtesy, it is difficult to make people distrust.
On the other hand, Song Beiyun, since he came to Xiaolianzhuang, this peaceful and peaceful little village has not stopped for a day, when he was ten years old, he was already a famous little splash, cheating the sugar of Yinhua, teasing the second fat to burn the haystack, and bluffing Biaozi to peek at Widow Zhang's bath, anyway, he did all the bad things in this place.
But it's just right, this little bastard is the same character as the patron saint of this Zhuangzi, since he came here, Xiaolianzhuang has had a bumper harvest year after year, not to mention that the grain grows very well, and even the disease is less, even if there is a plague in the past few years, only Xiaolianzhuang is peaceful.
So the people on the bank love and hate this guy, and the only result is that they don't care much about him, but they always like to ask him for help when they have something.
It's strange to say, he is all bad like this, but he is still the doll king of the village, he doesn't go to the ground and doesn't work, but he can always earn much more money than others, but he is also generous, always changing tricks to get some novel things for the little rabbit cubs on the Zhuangzi, eating and playing, paper kites, lanterns, honey, jerky, anyway, because of these things, the little rabbits like this little bastard very much, the adults in the family can't look back, and they cry the day before, The next day, the little rabbit cub would still follow Song Beiyun, the little bastard, up the mountain and down the river.
"Is there enough tangled in your body? If you are poor and rich, don't lose your manners in front of others. Ah Qiao took out a few taels of silver from his small purse: "Save some flowers, don't go to look for flowers and ask willows!" ”
This feeling...... Song Beiyun is very familiar with it, when she was over there before, every time she went out for a class reunion during the holidays, her mother would ask the same thing, "Is the money enough, don't deduct and search", but after giving the money, she would always say, "Don't spend it indiscriminately if you have money, save it".
Thinking of this, Song Beiyun chuckled, picked up Ah Qiao's face and rubbed it, and said softly: "I know, baby Ah Qiao." ”
"It's really ...... to always say something embarrassing" Ah Qiao pouted, but he didn't dodge: "Go and get ready, take a shower and put on the clothes I made for you." ”
Ah Qiao was born poor when she was a child, but since she hooked up with Song Beiyun, she is actually not short of money, although she is not as good as those rich and expensive young ladies and wives, but compared with the people in the village, her life is probably better than that of Aunt Hong, because Song Beiyun will give A Qiao a sum of money every month, sometimes more and sometimes less, but even less is the harvest of the village's family for more than half a year, and sometimes it is the harvest of several years.
So over the years, Ah Qiao has become less and less like a banker woman, and no one will doubt that he is a young lady from a big family when she changes her clothes, which is why her father dares to shout out such a high price of capital.
Although Song Beiyun raised Ah Qiao to be white and tender, but she has been doing the work in her own hands, in addition to going to the mountains to collect some medicinal herbs into the city and selling her father's carpenter goods, all over the country know that Ah Qiao is best at tailoring, not just a tailor who sews and mends, but a tailor who can make a wedding dress.
Song Beiyun asked her why she wanted to make her own clothes, she always said that she wanted to save a dowry for herself, and if a woman married without a dowry, it would be laughed at.
Such a Qiao wants to make a Confucian shirt for Song Beiyun, which is like playing for her, and she is willing to spend money on Song Beiyun, the fabrics are all bought in Nanjing, I heard that many celebrities and scholars wear these, and a foot of cloth costs half a penny.
"When you come back, if it's convenient, buy something for dolls from the city." Ah Qiao turned around and ordered: "Also, Haosheng takes care of Brother Yusheng, but he can't be bullied." ”
"Don't worry." Song Beiyun turned around and returned to the room, and then stuck his head out of the window: "As long as it's not a fireworks woman, it's okay?" ”
Ah Qiao's eyes glared: "Hmph! ”
"Just kidding." Song Beiyun smiled: "Lady, help me get a piece of soap." ”
This sentence made Ah Qiao's face crimson: "Go, go, who is your wife." Go and take a bath, and I'll get it for you. ”
Changing into a dress made by Ah Qiao, Song Beiyun looked down at himself and found that it still had that taste, but this dress was a little different from what usually those Confucian students wore, because it was a design drawing from Song Beiyun, so there were many popular elements more than a thousand years later. Even Ah Qiao, who has had more than one intimate contact with him, is full of peach blossoms.
"I never thought you'd look so good in it." Ah Qiao circled around Song Beiyun a few times, and nodded again and again: "This is really excellent." ”
"That's because my pretty baby is good at craftsmanship, but it's a little tight inside......"
"That's not tight." As soon as Ah Qiao mentioned this, he immediately became bright: "This is not comfortable, if you are a little smaller, your clothes will be able to pull up your body, and cover your head with another layer, and you can look clean, neat, and energetic when you wear it, and you can judge it with those who are sluggish." Because as long as you put on this garment, you can't lie down, you can't hold your breath on your stomach, you can't squat, you can't squat, you can't squat and strangle your waist. I had to stand there straight, and I sat like a loose seat. ”
Really...... No matter what era it is, women are creatures that define aesthetics, if you want Song Beiyun to come, then he must be how comfortable he must be and how comfortable he is, where is there a doorway for these bullshit, but as Ah Qiao said, although it is not very comfortable, it does reflect the sentence that people want to dress, and now Song Beiyun is not a person at all.
"If you go outside, don't let me lose anyone."
