"The first bowl of loofah soup in autumn is elegant and fragrant, symbolizing strong love and containing a trace of sweetness. This soup means sincerity, it should be given to the beauty, if you don't send it, you don't love it...... A bowl of soup, fifty wen, start shooting now, dare to raise a card! ”

In the post yard of Gujia Village, the lights were brilliant, but seeing the girl Tan Xiao was like a beauty under the moon, she was introducing the first lot of Youyou Manman.

The words speak excellently.

It's heart-pounding.

Listen, the first bowl of loofah soup in autumn symbolizes strong sincerity and love. This thing must be given to the beauty, and if you don't send it, you can't express your love at all.

There were hundreds of people in the courtyard, and the atmosphere suddenly fell into an inexplicable weirdness.

Among the teams that came to congratulate each other this time, each family came with their daughters and sisters-in-law, the daughters are generally the main wives in the family, and the sisters-in-law are generally the eldest sons in the family, in addition, there are a large number of daughters-in-law.

This bowl of so-called loofah soup, which symbolizes love, is used to harvest this group of flowers.

Love!

Sincerely!

How heart-pounding.

The girl Cardamom Fanghua, how can she stand this temptation, when the bowl of loofah soup is brought out, the concubines already have a fighting spirit of never giving in to each other.

However, the atmosphere in the compound was even more eerie.

……

For example, Li Shimin, who was sitting not far from the exhibition table, was sitting there stunned at this time pinching a cake, his mouth wide open, obviously extremely shocked.

After a long time, Li Shimin turned his head to look at Gu Tianya, who was sitting on the side, and asked in a daze, "Loofah soup?" Fifty wen? Are you crazy about lack of money? Or do you take our Datang women for fools? ”

Gu Tianya smiled leisurely, not caring about Li Shimin's anger, but spoke slowly, "This is the first bowl of loofah soup in autumn, symbolizing strong love and sincerity. What happened to Fifty Wen? You can still sell it for 500 ......"

Li Shimin continued to be stunned, and after a while, he raised the cake in his hand and said: "This cake is just bought from the night market, made of pure wheat noodles, weighing at least half a catty, take a bite, fragrant, porcelain, full stomach, just such a big cake, I only spent two pennies, even with the amount of food I have been in the army for many years, I can eat enough to buy two cakes!" ”

He paused as he spoke, his tone became a little cold, and he said, "In addition to the two cakes, I also bought a mouthful of meat, and the two cakes and the meat are added together, do you know how much money I spent in total?" ”

Gu Tianya smiled slightly, and said lightly: "I know the prices in the night market, and you can buy these foods for only ten cents at most." ”

"It's ten cents!"

Li Shimin snorted coldly, his tone became even colder, and said: "These ten cents can buy two cakes, and add a mouthful of fragrant meat, so although I paid these ten cents, I willingly took them out." I don't think it's much, I think it's worth the price. Two cakes cost more than a pound, and more than a pound of wheat flour must be used when baking. Wheat is grain, which is exchanged for the sweat beads of the common people falling to the ground and breaking them to pieces. Where the value is, Tong Su is not deceived, but look at what you sell? You dare to sell fifty wen for a bowl of loofah soup? ”

Gu Tianya looked at him twice, and said slowly: "To be exact, it's old loofah soup." ”

Li Shimin was stunned.

Gu Tianya smiled and said: "In order to show the profound taste of this bowl of soup, I specially asked Tan Xiao to pick an old loofah. Second brother, do you know why you use old loofah? Because that kind of silk is so old that it can't be bitten at all, but I can shape the saying, this can't bite the silk can be said to be a symbol of love that is broken and broken. After adding water and boiling, it is a bowl of loofah soup that represents true love. Sell it for fifty wen because it contains love. ”

Li Shimin even stammered when he spoke, and it took a long time to hold back a few words, and said: "This is obviously a boiled loofah." ”

Gu Tianya nodded, and said with a smile: "The loofah is easy to find, the lakeside outside the village is everywhere, lush and green, just pick one." Water is also easy to find, and the most important thing in Gujia Village is water, so second brother, you are right, this is really a bowl of soup boiled with loofah. ”

Li Shimin's face turned pale angrily, and he said angrily: "This thing is not even worth a penny." ”

Gu Tianya did not shy away from it, and said lightly: "But with the addition of rhetoric, it is worth fifty wen." ”

At this moment, I suddenly heard a coquettish laugh in the courtyard, but it was an official lady who was so excited that she had successfully obtained the bowl of soup.

The soup was not won by her bidding, but by the eldest son of another family.

Li Shimin was dumbfounded.

Gu Tianya next to him sighed, pointed over there and lowered his voice: "Second brother, have you seen it, the woman is smiling proudly and proudly, look at the kid who paid the money, is he drooping his head with a sad face?" This is helplessness in his heart, but no matter how helpless he is, he still paid for it. There's no way, if you want to please the beauty, I estimate that after he takes out the fifty yuan, he may be beaten by the elders of the family tonight. ”

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a crisp sound of 'pop', but saw a noble lady who was so angry that she really slapped the young man.

The lady scolded angrily: "Stinky boy, are you suffering from madness? Such a bowl of loofah soup, you dare to buy it for fifty yuan. It's not a question of money or not, it's a problem with your brain. Kneel down for your mother, and you are not allowed to get up for an hour. ”

The boy was slapped in the face, but he didn't dare to reply, but really knelt down, drooping his head with a bitter face.

Syllable!

Suddenly, there was another crisp sound, obviously another slap, but this slap was not a noble lady beating her son again, it was actually the mother of the official lady over there who beat her own daughter.

saw that it was also a noble lady, and at this time she was also angry, and scolded fiercely: "Stinky girl, you are embarrassed." The eldest son of the Liu family was punished by his mother in front of everyone for you, and the man had gold under his knees, but now he has to kneel in front of everyone for an hour. He will be your husband in the future, how can you bear to hurt him like this? You, you, you still don't kneel down and admit your mistakes......"

The young lady's pretty face turned red, obviously feeling that she had lost face on such an occasion, and she sobbed and argued: "Mother, this soup represents sincerity, and fifty dollars is not expensive!" ”

"!"

The noble lady shouted angrily, and said with a blue face: "If a bowl of loofah soup can also represent sincerity, the sincerity in this world is too worthless." A bowl of boiled loofah, where can it be worth fifty yuan? ”

The girl was still unconvinced, sobbed and said, "It's only fifty yuan, and it's not my daughter's own money." ”

"Isn't your future husband's money money?"

The lady broke off again and said angrily: "Do you know how difficult it is to make money? ”

Without waiting for her daughter to refute, she continued: "The reason why your future husband was punished by his mother for kneeling is because he wasted fifty dollars in vain. Although it is true that this amount of money is not much, it is hard to earn no matter how little it is. In order to earn the family business, your uncle of the Liu family fought hard to charge on the battle array, and this fifty yuan is not much in your eyes, but it may be that your uncle of the Liu family was stabbed in exchange. And for the sake of a little vanity, you just, just ......"

The girl finally hung her head.

However, the noble lady still didn't let her go, and said again: "Your uncle of the Liu family is desperate to earn the family business, and your father is also desperate, we now look like an official eunuch's family, and it looks like a big family, but have you ever thought that these family businesses are all worked hard by men, girl, this is what men are fighting for......

She finally stopped talking at this point, and suddenly got up and walked to the other side.

That side was where the Liu family sat in her mouth, but when she saw the noble lady suddenly bend her knees and bow solemnly, she said to another noble lady with a guilty face: "Sister Liu, little sister is really embarrassed. It was I who taught my daughter that she had no way to make her do something ridiculous. For the sake of my little sister's face, spare your son's punishment. In such a public view, a good man should not lose face. ”

The noble lady shook her head slowly, sighed, and said, "Since ancient times, I taught my son to remember." Sister of the Xue family, you don't have to intercede for him. I will punish him now, and I will also make him increase his memory. But I'm not resentful, but you shouldn't let your daughter be punished in front of people. The girl's family, how can she stand this lesson, hurry up and let her get up, lest she can't think of the tip of the bull's horns......"

The two noblewomen each comforted each other, but neither could persuade the other.

Li Shimin, who was not far away, nodded slowly, and finally had a smile on his face. Gu Tianya next to him smiled, and also nodded: "This is a woman in the Tang Dynasty, who knows how to be diligent and thrifty, and is considerate of men." I don't love vanity, I know that life is not easy, even if I have become a wealthy family, I still don't forget the hardships of making money. Oh, that's good! ”

Li Shimin was stunned at first, then thoughtful, and said: "It turns out that you sold loofah soup on purpose. ”

Gu Tianya smiled again and said, "It's just a lesson, I am a good teacher in my life." ”

He suddenly got up and walked straight over there, and then in the surprised eyes of the two noble ladies, he leaned over to look at the kneeling Liu family son, and asked softly, "How old is this year?" ”

The young man's face was red at this time, and he obviously couldn't react when he heard the words, and even his mother was also stunned because of the abruptness.

On the contrary, the noble lady of the Xue family was full of surprise, and replied urgently with a trembling voice: "Gu... Mr. Gu, my son-in-law is 15 years old this year. ”

Gu Tianya nodded, and suddenly asked again, "So how old is your daughter this year?" ”

The noble lady of the Xue family replied in a trembling tone, and tried to suppress her worries: "Back to Mr. Gu, the little girl is also fifteen years old this year. ”

"I'm only fifteen years old, when are I going to get married?"

"Back to Mr. Gu, I will be ready to accept the lottery at the beginning of spring next year......"

"Well, you're too young, you're getting married too early, if you're willing, can you delay the time a little."

"Gu... Mr. Gu, what do you mean ......"

"Hehe, I was just watching from a distance, and I saw the two ladies in front of their godson, and suddenly they had itchy skills, and they also wanted to be a master."

The audience was stunned.

The two noblewomen were already silly with joy.

Suddenly, the two generals rushed to the side of the female dependent's seat, and it was the head of the Liu family and the Xue family, as if they were catching chickens, each picking up their own sons and daughters, and then regardless of whether the children agreed or not, they were pressed in front of Gu Tianya without being stunned, and shouted at the same time: "Kowtow, hurry up and kowtow to your master." ”

Gu Tianya waved his hand violently and said: "There is no need to kowtow, I am not accepting apprentices, I am just a temporary itch, I want to accept two students, if you feel that you are not valued, you can refuse my idea......"

The two generals glanced at each other and hurriedly said, "To be able to become a student of the Gu family, we have been pleasantly surprised." The head still has to be kowtowed, which is the etiquette that children should observe. ”

Gu Tianya nodded, and did not refuse again this time.

……

A small episode has come to an end in a blink of an eye, but Gu Tianya suddenly spoke again, and said with a smile: "A bowl of loofah soup just now, in fact, it was a little joke made by contemptible, the intention was to enliven the atmosphere, and at the same time, he wanted to ridicule certain things. What makes me happy is that our Datang women are very virtuous, know how to run a family, and know that it is not easy to make money. With such a family education, the heirs will be able to become successful...... I won't mention the auction of loofah soup anymore, and I am glad to have accepted two students with good tutors. ”

He paused as he spoke, then suddenly opened another topic and said: "You have come all the way to baptize my baby, which is the good of the family, and you should repay it with courtesy." But I Gu Tianya was born poor, and I am afraid that I can't get out the money or anything, but fortunately, my ancestors were Momen and inherited some utensils. I discussed with Zhaoning for a long time, and I felt that I shouldn't cherish myself, so I took this opportunity to share it with you. Of course, you'll have to pay for it! ”

"It's finally getting started!"

There were hundreds of people present, and suddenly they felt that their wheezing had become heavy.

Gu Tianya didn't procrastinate, he turned around and walked to Tan Xiao's side, he motioned for Tan Xiao to get out of the way, and he personally served as the auctioneer, and then, he slowly picked up something from the table.

Hundreds of eyes were all over the place, staring directly into his palm in an instant.

The eldest grandson Wuji was the first to blurt out, and said with surprise: "This is a sweet potato, we have seen it." ”

Gu Tianya laughed, nodded and said, "Brother Eldest Sun is right, this thing is called sweet potato, it is a grain seed that my family has just cultivated, and one acre of land can have at least a dozen stone yield." I"
