Chapter 21: Yunqi is shy
Lin Aqi muttered twice dissatisfiedly, in the end, his arms were still unable to reach his thighs, and he didn't know how to eat, and as soon as he finished eating, he was rushed into the house to sew handkerchiefs by his wife.
The reason why Lin Aqi didn't embroider handkerchiefs on Daughter's Day was because the butterflies she embroidered were complained about by her sister as flies, and she couldn't even look down on her lover like Lin Shaxiang.
She doesn't love it, so why do she have to do it?
Unable to hold on to a cup of tea, Lin Archie couldn't sit still, and ran to the hall with his things to take a look.
The master is out of the stall, and the master is feeding the rabbits.
And what about Yunqi?
Lin Archie stood on tiptoe and quietly slipped to the door of Yunqi's room, but he didn't want him to lock it from the inside.
"Yunqi! Yunqi—" Lin Archie whispered.
Fortunately, Sanniang is coming back after feeding the things in her hand.
Lin Aqi was so frightened that he hurriedly knocked on the door: "Open the door, Yunqi-"
It's over, and the master is about to come in......
Lin Aqi prepared the wording to deal with it, but he didn't want the door to open from the inside, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, Lin Aqi rushed in, threw off his shoes, and habitually hid in the quilt.
Yunqi: ......
Girl, do you like to climb my bed so much?
Xing Sanniang saw Yunqi standing at the door with her coat on, and said with concern: "What's wrong?" Is it to change the dressing? ”
Yunqi hurriedly said no, he just poured some water to drink.
Xing Sanniang remembered: "There is not much water in the pot, I'll go boil some more." ”
"Okay." Yun Qi watched her leave.
Covering the door, Yunqi silently looked at Lin Aqi, who was trembling and prayed to the master not to find her.
"Come out, my sister is gone."
Lin Archie didn't believe it, poked out her furry head, she was a little girl, Yunqi was obviously much older than her, he couldn't push her out as a shield, right?
"Really?"
Yunqi opened the door with a "swish": "Really." ”
There was no figure of Shi Niang outside the house.
"Whew-" Lin Aqi got out of bed and put on her shoes, and one flew to the window, she didn't need Yunqi's help, she jumped a few times on one foot, jumped over and put it on.
Yunqi was a little helpless: "You're not afraid of Master, why are you so afraid of Master?" ”
Lin Aqi didn't want to leave after putting on his shoes, and simply sat on the edge of his bed and played with his fingers.
Yes, she doesn't want to be a female celebrity even if she plays with her fingers.
"My mother will teach me a lesson and spank me, but Master won't."
Yunqi was a little funny, closed the door, and he sat down next to Lin Aqi: "You're so old that she still spanks you?" ”
Lin Aqi felt embarrassed to say that he was still wetting the bed at the age of twelve, so he didn't say anything, and picked some things like "I am good at chess", "I am lucky", "My sister envies me" and so on.
Yun Qi saw that her eyes dodged and didn't demolish her, but she was just a little girl who had not dried up, and he felt that she was more and more interesting.
"Your sister beat you, will you cry?"
Lin Aqi glanced at him and said stubbornly: "Of course not!" I've got a backbone! ”
Yunqi's brown eyes were deep, oh, he wouldn't cry when he was beaten, but he cried hard for fear of thunder, and he wet his bedding from crying......
When I thought that I disliked her at night, I couldn't sleep well in tears, and my mood was a little frustrated.
Lin Archie asked him, "Why are you wearing a coat?" ”
Yunqi took Master's clothes and changed them with his own, changing one set a day.
He glanced at the clothes on his body, which were a little short.
I wore it when I went to the yamen in the morning, and it is not suitable to wear it again at this moment.
"I want to go out and buy some clothes."
"How many?" Lin Archie emphasized.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Archie waved his hand: "No, no!" My wife buys me the most things I do, and I don't buy a lot of them at once. ”
She whispered: "Actually, she is super rich, but she just refuses to give me flowers." ”
Yunqi was in a good mood: "What do you want?" I have money to buy for you. ”
Lin Archie really thought about it seriously: "I want the "Four Books", and I have secretly listened to the "Five Classics", but I haven't heard the "Four Books" yet. ”
Yunqi was a little surprised: "That's it?" ”
I didn't expect her to be quite studious.
When the two of them went to the street, Yunqi was stupid when she saw what the "Four Books" she was talking about......
Lin Aqi said that she wanted to accompany Yunqi to go out to buy some clothes, but Xing Sanniang knew that she would bargain, and helped Yunqi and said that it was good, and she didn't force her to stay at home, but only told her to be careful on the road and come back early.
With physical and mental freedom, Lin Archie laughed when he saw flowers and made trouble when he saw people along the way.
"Vermilion face! Your big pink coat today makes your pockmarks bigger and bigger! ”
Vermilion face: ......
"Sister Qi! Your clothes are all washed and floated away! ”
Qi Qimei came back to her senses from Yunqi, blushing and hurriedly picking up the clothes on the water.
"Uncle Niu is good! Is your daughter-in-law going to give birth? Hurry up and ask Xi Wenpo to prepare it for you! ”
……
"Huh? Already raw? Fat boy? Not bad, not bad! Happy to be a father! ”
Yunqi ......
How does it work?
Lin Aqi told people all the way, but no matter who she was talking to, when she introduced them, she said that Yunqi next to her was a distant relative of her family, and she came to Xilin Village to play for two days.
The big and small in Xilin Village more or less knew that the Lin family had a handsome guy.
Lin Aqi didn't mention how proud he was.
Can't be his master, can't he be his relative?
Hum!
The two of them first went to a small shop selling books.
Since the traffic here is not very good, the books sold are a little different from those in the city.
Similar to the "Analects" and "The Book of Songs", they were all sold to the scholars who wanted to take the examiner, and there were almost no books suitable for the rural people.
Ordinary people can't even eat meat, who has spare money to buy books to read?
Don't look at the remoteness of Xilin Village, there are still a lot of talents from poor families here. Poor people, if they can get a little talent, they will be directly reused by the local family.
Xilin Village does not have a large family tradition, but the township attaches great importance to these, and Township Chief Yao was selected from Xiucai to be an official.
Lin Archie was satisfied with the selection, she didn't know much literacy, and just relied on her impression to choose the cover she had seen before.
Lin Archie finally found it in the horns, and ran over happily: "This is it!" ”
Yunqi smiled slightly, took it and flipped through the two pages, how could there be something wrong with this content!
"The scenery of the four seasons is different, and the joy is endless...... In this section, the bed is the foundation, the woman is the top, and the man is the bottom......" Yunqi frowned and swept to the next line, "The story of the fox and the scholar ......"
"Smack!" Yun Qi was angry and threw the book in the corner of the shelf.
Lin Aqi wondered: "What's wrong?" Why are the good ones angry? ”
She bent down to pick it up again, and Yunqi hurriedly grabbed her, almost rushing out of the small bookstore in a running posture.
Lin Aqi pursed his lips, ignoring his slightly reddened ears: "Aren't you embarrassed to buy it if you don't have enough silver?" Although books are quite expensive, they are not as good as two catties of meat, and I still saved a little silver naked. ”
She turned around and wanted to go back, Yun Qi pressed the throbbing in her heart: "No, that book is a pirated version, and it is easy to cause confusion if it is not fully told, and after a while, I will give you a genuine copy, okay?" ”
Lin Aqi looked at him in a daze, Yun Qi turned his face slightly, and in his heart it was the obscure Huang Wen who messed up with him in the book......
How can this deserted little shop make such a misleading business? Wrap or must test the classic book cover, isn't this delaying people's future?
"It's just piracy, and it's so bad that people are so upset!" Lin Archie was no longer entangled, "Okay, since you promised me, you can't go back." ”
"It's nature."
Finally escaped, Yunqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
From an early age, he was taught to be wise and cautious in his words and deeds, and to stay away from such things.
He glanced at the little person beside him, and she said that she had already audited a copy of the Five Classics...... Before he knew it, his face was also dyed red, could it be what he thought?
This damn corrupted villager! How can you take out such a book and talk about it!
Yunqi's mind turned back and forth, and the girl smiled: "It's here!" ”
The clouds raised their heads, and the simple signboard had three big words "Garment Workshop".
I didn't expect to come in and buy some beautiful materials, but I didn't expect that there are still a lot of simple and durable.
Yunqi tried it at random, and he couldn't wait to be dragged out by the shopkeeper to walk around twice to be a model for the store.
The proprietress ran out of the backyard, staring at Yunqi with her eyes glowing.
"Ouch! Where did you come from such a handsome boy? Come to Xilin Village to play, right? ”
After a pause, the proprietress said: "Let's not say anything else, the ready-to-wear store is our best!" Do you want to go up to the second floor to have a look? There's better material for you! ”
"Second floor......" Lin Archie muttered.
When the proprietress saw that it was her, she said angrily: "Why is Miss Lin here today?" But what about your master? Then you have to let him try it himself, so as not to take it and return it if he doesn't like it. ”
Yun Qi's brown eyes sank, and he quickly took off his coat.
Lin Aqi puffed out his eyes and was quite unconvinced: "It happened that the master came back, and I saw at a glance that you were fooling me and selling me last year's old clothes, so I came to return!" Are you too embarrassed to mention it? ”
"Huh? You damn girl! It's obvious that you are reluctant to spend a few more dollars to buy better ones, why do you still rely on the clothes in my store to be bad? ”
Lin Aqi pulled Yunqi and quickly went out, and the proprietress was still chattering in the back: "What's the matter with you?" It's a deliberate smashing of the field today, right? ”
When I saw Yunqi who had just been praised to the heavens and the earth, I saw that his nose was not a nose, and his eyes were not eyes.
"Really...... What a man! If you come together, I'm afraid you're also so poor! Bad luck! ”
The proprietress swept the air with a handkerchief and went back to the backyard.
The men looked at each other in embarrassment, wondering whether it was necessary to take a lot of silver that day, and besides, it was the proprietress who deceived the customer first, thinking that she was a little girl who did not have much money, and deliberately sold her the old clothes she had accumulated last year.
That's it, who made her the boss lady. She can sell as much as she likes, they just work part-time, but it's not good to talk back to the boss.
Lin Aqi was so angry that he kicked over a small pebble, which gurgled and rolled for a while before stopping in front of a big tree.
Yun Qi coaxed her: "Don't worry about her, let's not buy it from her." ”
Lin Aqi was a little aggrieved: "I obviously picked a good one for the master on the second floor, so I'm not stingy-"
Her little face was flushed with redness because of anger, her eyelids drooped, and she was extremely angry.
Yunqi patted her arm: "Of course you are not stingy, and you are willing to make me a clump of yam to drink tea." ”
Lin Archie remembered something: "Hmm. Then he repeated, "I'm good to Master!" It's just that she was deceived into buying last year's old materials, and she didn't mention that I forgot about it. ”
She rolled her eyes: "The one opposite her house is not bad, but the style is old and not very good-looking, am I pulling you out on my own initiative......"
As he spoke, he lowered his head again, and he was about to bury himself in his chest.
Yun Qi walked to the opposite door one step ahead of her: "It's okay, anyway, I bought it to deal with it, don't care about the style." ”
Lin Aqi breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't blame himself.
