After the opening of Xi'anmen Street, Guo Song came here for the first time to eat.

At noon, Zhang Lei invited Guo Song to drink at the Taibai Restaurant on Xi'anmen Street, and the reason why Zhang Lei did not invite guests at the Pearl Restaurant was that he was worried that Guo Ping would get involved, but it would be a bad thing.

Guo Song wore a pale cyan robe, a gauze hat, a leather belt around his waist, his beloved jade pendant hung on the leather belt, and a sword around his waist.

He had a short beard under his chin, and he looked like a very mature man.

"When is the restaurant going to open?" Guo Song asked with a smile.

"The main beam was just hoisted yesterday, and it is estimated that it will take two or three months."

"Have you figured out the name?" Guo Song asked again.

"Don't mention it!" Zhang Lei sighed and said: "I originally wanted to call it Zhang's Restaurant, but after investigation, there are at least eight Zhang's Restaurants in Chang'an, which is not interesting, so it is called Lei Yu Restaurant, but my wife said that it is better to call it Lei Yu Restaurant than Wen Yu Restaurant, so she deprived me of my name." ”

Guo Song took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "This must be fought for, respect the lady, put her name in front, you can call it Yulei Restaurant!" ”

"Good! This is your name, you are responsible for inscribe it to me, I don't care, it's called this name. ”

Guo Song smiled, "I'll help you inscribe then." ”

After a pause, he smiled again and asked, "Why did you think of inviting me to drink today, is there any purpose?" ”

Zhang Lei hurriedly waved his hand, "What's the purpose, because I didn't get together for the New Year, I want to make up for it and relive the brotherhood." ”

"When you talk about brotherhood, I suddenly remembered the elder brother, how is he doing now?"

Zhang Lei pursed his lips disdainfully, "I heard that that old Zamao is going back to Chang'an, and he will rebuild the Qingxuguan and Jinshen Pavilion in Chang'an, and the land is still empty!" ”

Guo Song was stunned, "Why do you want to come back again?" ”

Zhang Lei sneered and said, "The answer to this question is not simple? Don't you just want to go back to Chang'an to make money? You think he's willing to stay in Kongtong Mountain all the time. ”

"It's true, he has to feed so many people."

Zhang Lei was a little anxious in his heart, how to insert the topic? Although his wife taught him carefully, how should he bring it up?

At this time, Guo Song glanced out the window and asked, "Now that the river is frozen and there is no flower boat tour, how can the Liu Lingban you invited live?" ”

Zhang Lei was overjoyed in his heart, he came whatever he wanted, he hurriedly said: "Liu's Lingban doesn't make money by flower boats, they perform in the front canopy, five times a day, the venue is full, and it has been scheduled until the end of the year." ”

"What do they play?" Guo Song asked curiously.

"Singing, military drama and puppet play, interspersed with some hundred skills, illusions and the like, are very popular, and now Chang'an mentions Tang Xiaomei, Yuan Qiaoer, Han Qiniang, Meng Liqiu, everyone knows about it, no one knows, and even some people come from Hedong to cheer."

"What can they perform?"

"Of course it's singing, they sing Jiangnan tunes, Yangzhou tunes, it's so hot."

Guo Song frowned, "What about Liu Caichun?" ”

Zhang Lei said lightly: "She is already in the past, Chang'an people have long forgotten her, of course, Chang'an people are not familiar with her, but in Jiangnan, she is a household name, not only she sings well, but also has a good character, everyone praises her as a lotus, although she is in the red dust, she can keep the ice clear and jade, out of the mud without staining." ”

"Praise her so much!"

Zhang Lei shook his head and said: "That's what you don't know, I specifically inquired, when Li Xilie usurped the throne, he wanted to accept her as a concubine, and sent someone to ask for 50,000 taels of silver, but she refused, she took a dagger to her heart, saying that if Li Xilie forced her again, she would die Mingzhi, Li Xilie had no choice but to agree to let her go."

She was afraid that Li Xilie would regret it, so she fled overnight, Li Xilie really repented again, and sent someone to arrest her, but only caught her father, Li Xilie was angry and ashamed, and whipped her father a hundred lashes, thanks to Li Xilie's general Chen Xianqi intercession, Li Xilie let her father go, but her father did not get out of bed for two months. ”

"Speaking of which, she's still a strong woman!"

Zhang Lei smiled again: "Yangzhou Chen Shaoyou was also beating her idea, so she asked her who she wanted to marry, she said that she wanted to marry the hero of the world, Chen Shaoyou said, I am the hero of the world, but Liu Caichun replied to him, living in Yangzhou, how to talk about the word world, so Chen Shaoyou was ashamed, so he had to send her out of Yangzhou, no longer forcing her. ”

Guo Song smiled: "What are you talking about?" Did you say it specifically to me? ”

Zhang Lei smiled bitterly: "I have this intention, I don't hide it from your junior brother, when I went to Jiangnan to pick them up, I was shocked by Liu Caichun's beauty at a glance, I had the idea of accepting her as a concubine, and your senior sister also agreed that I would take another concubine, but ...... Ay! ”

"But what, if you want to, I'll let the princess help you be a matchmaker."

"It's not like that, it's people who don't want to do it at all, her father said that she already has Ruyi Langjun in her heart, let me stop thinking about it."

"Who is her wishful husband?"

Zhang Lei glared at Guo Song angrily, "Senior brother, are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid, she has lived in the Jin Palace for a few months, besides you, which man does she come into contact with?" Isn't her wishful husband you? ”

Guo Song was stunned, "No!" How can it be? ”

He remembered Liu Caichun's reaction to his kiss, and he was obviously very disgusted, how could he like himself?

"What wouldn't."

Zhang Lei said again: "Listen to me, she is often invited to sing with dignitaries, there are too many people who beat her idea, even Wei Yingwu invited her to travel and write poems together in Suzhou, but she also declined, I understand, this woman is protecting herself all the time, and she will not be easily emotional, but once she is emotional, she will be desperate and would rather give up her future, you look at the present, Tang Xiaomei, who was only worthy of giving her makeup and powder, is so popular that she stays in the Jin Palace and is unmoved, isn't this obvious? ”

Guo Song was silent, he remembered that he taught her to skate and held her hand, she didn't refuse, she kissed her like a sneak attack, it was indeed a bit abrupt, and she might have been seen by Xiaowei, no wonder she was angry at the time, I'm afraid this was her first kiss.

Guo Song thought again that she kissed her, but she didn't leave angrily, it should be that she wasn't really angry with herself, she was hurt for her, and she could see that she was also very sorry in her heart.

Thinking of this, Guo Song's resistance to Liu Caichun gradually loosened again.

Zhang Lei drank all the wine in the cup, sighed and said: "The falling flowers are intentional, the flowing water is ruthless, why don't I Zhang Lei have a confidante?" ”

Guo Song smiled dumbly, "Senior brother, twenty years ago, you sang to your senior sister every night, but as I said, she is your confidante in this life, and there will be no second one." ”

"Wasn't it too young then? I don't know much yet! ”

"I'll go back to my senior sister and tell her to give you freedom."

"Don't!"

Zhang Lei was so frightened that he waved his hand, "If the tigress in the family knows, she will definitely kill me alive, then I will change my target, Tang Xiaomei, I actually like her a lot, hehe!" ”

.........

At dusk, Liu Caichun returned to her room, and when she saw a large red lacquered wooden box on the table, she asked the maid Xiao Radish strangely, "What is this?" Who sent it? ”

"It's a gift from His Royal Highness King Jin, I don't know what it is?"

Liu Caichun was stunned, how could he give a gift to himself?

"Girl, let's see what it is?" Little Radish urged from the side.

"What are you anxious about, you'll see sooner or later."

Liu Caichun glared at the maid, but her curiosity made her untie the knot on the box, and when she opened the lid, it turned out to be a pair of glittering skates inside, refined from brass, exactly the same as the skates worn by King Jin.

"Wow! Such beautiful skates, actually made of gold. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, it's brass, not gold, and let others listen to the joke."

Liu Caichun suddenly remembered that King Jin had told him that he had ordered a pair of skates for Yan'er and himself, Liu Caichun's nose was a little sour, and a warm feeling surged in his heart, he was not really angry with himself.

There was also a plain note in the box, she picked it up and looked at it carefully, it was written to her by King Jin, and it was only eight simple words.

'Tomorrow will be closed, ice and snow will meet. ’

Liu Caichun's heart suddenly 'pounded! Impulsive! The ground was throbbing, and he was going to teach himself to skate tomorrow!
