Chapter 82: Shopping
After dinner, Guan Xiaoya said, "Master, they have all gone back, and I feel empty in my heart." ”
"Then let's go shopping! Today is the Lantern Festival, and the city is lively! Listen, firecrackers have already begun!" Li Dejin said, taking Guan Xiaoya's hand and going out.
The bright moonlight illuminates the earth, and the streets of Haizhou are crowded with people and lively.
The street girls with heavy makeup under the street lamps scratch their heads and pose in the cold wind.
Occasionally, the singing girl has a euphemistic and poignant voice, like crying, and next to her sits a flute or a master who plays the flute or plays the huqin.
"You see," Li Dejin said, pointing as he spoke, "this is Middle Street, east to Zhonggulou, and then east to East Street, and our Eighth Normal School is on the side.
The school is located in the examination shed, which is said to have been set up in the Qing Dynasty. You see, that's the Temple of Literature, also called the Temple of Confucius.
It is said that the talented Milk School Lane is also nearby, where there is a family surnamed Ding who moved from Shandong, not only talented, but also general......"
Li Dejin said excitedly, and suddenly heard Guan Xiaoya's slight gasp, so he lowered his head and asked softly, "Are you tired, girl?"
"Not tired. I'm not a woman with small feet!" Guan Xiaoya raised her head and said with a smile, "Mom said that a girl can't marry if she has big feet, but Da Da won't let me wrap my feet." ”
"Haha!" Li Dejin said with a smile, "You haven't done anything good in your life, so you won't be allowed to do the right thing about binding your feet."
You can walk and do things better than other girls, and I like your warm and lively appearance!"
"Do you like the food I cooked?" asked Guan Xiaoya mischievously.
"I like it!" replied Li Dejin, "It's really delicious, haha!
"What do I smell like?" Guan Xiaoya asked shyly, lowering her head.
"It's fragrant!" Li Dejin said with a hearty smile, and at the same time leaned his head on Guan Xiaoya's shoulder and sniffed, "It's so fragrant!"
Guan Xiaoya suddenly felt itchy but warm on her body, subconsciously pushed Li Dejin away, and said angrily: "I hate it." ”
After speaking, Guan Xiaoya immediately felt that it was too much to treat her master like this, so she approached him again.
"I go to class every day, will you feel lonely alone at Uncle Xie's house?" asked Li Dejin.
"Second young master, don't worry," Guan Xiaoya said, "After you leave, I will go to the attic and latch the door to write." But ......"
"But what?" asked Li Dejin.
"Uncle Xie's son always stares at me today. Guan Xiaoya said worriedly.
"Hahaha......" Li Dejin said with a smile, "What's this, you look good!
"But," said Guan Xiaoya, "the way he looked at me was terrible. ”
"Don't be afraid!" Li Dejin said, "He is not Uncle Xie's own son, so he dare not do anything! I forgot to tell you that he was brought over by Uncle Xie's daughter-in-law who had just married, and it was called an oil bottle." ”
Guan Xiaoya saw the men and women walking over opposite and hooking their shoulders, and lowered their heads shyly.
"Ouch...... Why are you walking with your head down? Beware of being bumped into!" Li Dejin smiled and said, "If you are hit, I will be heartbroken, and I will fight with others." ”
"Second Young Master......" Guan Xiaoya glanced up at Li Dejin, and then lowered her head shyly and asked, "Those men and women are too affectionate." Are they all husband and wife?"
"It's not. Li Dejin said, "Young people are almost a young couple, and older ones are not necessarily, and if they are husband and wife, they will not be so affectionate."
They are called lovers, that is, loving women other than daughters-in-law, or loving men other than husbands. Oh, we call it good in the country. ”
"Oh my God! Where did the second young master hear that? The fifteen or sixteen-year-old male Xiaohu still doesn't know much about things, how come you know everything, second young master?" asked Guan Xiaoya.
"What I read in the book!" Li Dejin suddenly leaned close to Guan Xiaoya's ear and whispered, "Don't you like to hear me talk about 'Dream of Red Mansions'? That Jia Baoyu attacked the girl at the age of fourteen...... Well, let's not talk about it. I'll tell you more about it when I get back. ”
As he spoke, Li Dejin hugged Guan Xiaoya tighter into his arms again.
Guan Xiaoya didn't seem to understand it, she suddenly felt a heat wave from Li Dejin's broad chest, and an inexplicable heartbeat.
She suddenly remembered something she couldn't understand, so she asked timidly: "Second young master, after my mother went crazy, she often said that she liked the master, you said, did the master also like her? Why didn't the master marry her to be the second room?"
"This ...... I don't know. Li Dejin thought for a while and said, "Most women are affectionate and sexually because of love, and they are often emotionally single-minded, and in reality, they rarely go out of the wall."
And men's lust and desire can be completely separated, and it is their nature to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade. A woman who can forgive her husband for his troubles can be called a good wife. ”
"A woman is like that, is she still a good person?" asked Guan Xiaoya.
"This ......," Li Dejin said, "it's really hard to say whether the good guy is or the bad guy is, it depends on who this woman is with." There is a kiln girl named Xiao Fengxian in the capital, she used to be a good friend of the three religions and nine streams, and she did not have a good reputation by herself, but later she followed the revolutionary army General Cai, and she stayed forever. ”
"How do you know so much?" asked Guan Xiaoya.
"I listened to my cousin during my annual leave. He knows so much!" Li Dejin said excitedly.
"Uncle Cousin?" Guan Xiaoya asked in surprise, "Is it the eldest son of the town lord's family?"
"yes. What's wrong with him?" asked Li Dejin.
"The lord doesn't like him. Guan Xiaoya said, "It is said that this person is not responsible and unreliable." ”
"No responsibility?" hahaha...... Li Dejin said with a smile, "The big responsibility is a responsibility for a person or a family, and it is a small responsibility."
The eldest cousin is a revolutionary, and he takes the four seas as his home and the world as his own responsibility, so that is called a great responsibility!"
"I don't understand that. Guan Xiaoya said.
"My sister likes my cousin, but I won't let her marry him. Li Dejin said indignantly.
"The master said," Guan Xiaoya said, "The eldest lady is a scholarly family, and she can't be small for others." I also heard your aunt say that the eldest lady ......"
"My aunt is crazy, don't believe her words!" Li Dejin said.
He suddenly felt Guan Xiaoya's hand trembling a little, so he stopped, hugged her and said softly, "Is it cold?"
Guan Xiaoya's body trembled slightly, and she muttered, "Second Young Master, this, this is not good." She wanted to break free from Li Dejin's embrace, but she never had the strength.
"What's not good?" Li Dejin said disapprerovingly, "You see, everyone else is me." There are no acquaintances here, what are you afraid of?"
"Second Young Master, you, if you don't let go of me," Guan Xiaoya said fiercely, "I'm going to be angry." ”
Li Dejin was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly let go of the little girl.
"Second Young Master," Guan Xiaoya asked softly, "from now on, we will come out every night, okay? Let's go quickly and go back from the side street in front!"
"Okay!" replied happily, and the spirit came again.
"Is it so lively here every day?" asked Guan Xiaoya.
"Not really. Li Dejin replied, "Today is the Lantern Festival, there must be many more people than usual, and there will not be so many people setting off firecrackers and fireworks in normal times." By the way, most of the firecrackers made at home are sold to Haizhou. ”
"I know that. I often help make firecrackers at your house!" Guan Xiaoya said excitedly.
