The people of the Song Dynasty were really miserable and poor, presumably because this was only a small county town, and most of the clothes on the pedestrians on the street had some patches, and the color was single, and the cloth was coarse. Most of the pedestrians were men, and the women I saw were almost all middle-aged and elderly women and bouncing children. Not to mention everyone's beautiful ladies, even the small jasper can't see a few.

The shops are mostly oil, salt, sauce and vinegar grocery stores, or handicraft stalls, roadside food stalls, occasionally you can see juggling people walking the rivers and lakes, I want to see if there are any sassy and heroic women, but they are just some stout men, picking up big knives, swallowing swords, holding big tops or something, and I haven't seen a woman. I can't help but be interested.

Although Du Wenhao sat on a small sedan chair carried by two people, the sedan chair was also more common in the Song Dynasty, and it was not a rare thing, but it was generally only taken by officials or large families, and the small people rode donkeys to walk, so this sedan chair crossed the street, which is equivalent to a high-end sports car swaggering through the market in modern society, and it also attracted the attention of pedestrians.

When Du Wenhao was not in the mood to put down the sedan curtain, he heard a snort, and an object fell from the sky, and it happened to fall in his arms.

Du Wenhao was startled, and when he looked closely, it was a fragrant pink handkerchief, wrapped in a pomegranate red hydrangea the size of a green jujube and hollowed out silk.

He took the hydrangea and looked up, only to see that on a corridor on the second floor of the street, there were a few young women standing with flowers and branches, looking at him to cover his mouth to eat and smile, and other women had a small handkerchief in their hands, but there was a woman in a pomegranate red dress, empty-handed, looking at him with autumn waves, covering her mouth and smiling.

The sedan chair man in front slowed down, and he smiled and turned his head sideways to Du Wenhao and said, "Sir, the Mei'er girl in Mianchun Garden has taken a fancy to you!" Hehehe"

Du Wenhao has experienced this scene, a little flustered, one side of his face, and saw that the plaque hanging on the door plate of this building is indeed "Sleeping Spring Garden", obviously a green building, he has not had a chance to go to the ancient green building, today I saw this place of fireworks, and my heart still jumped up.

Looking up, I saw the woman's watery eyes, the pink goose egg face was delicate, a little fragrant tongue licked the cherry mouth, and the lotus-like arms were gently rubbed in the two peaks and deep valleys on the chest, and called with the delicate and glutinous voice: "Mr. Du, the slave family's heart has been hurting so much these days, you come up to help the slave family take a look, knead and knead it!" Hee-hee-hee"

Du Wenhao was embarrassed and hurriedly ordered to leave!

In the giggles of the girl in the green building, the small sedan chair flickered forward again. Walking out of the distance, he couldn't hear the laughter, Du Wenhao's heart was still beating, he remembered something, picked up the sedan curtain and asked the sedan chair man: "Brother sedan chair man, this woman's name is Mei'er?" ”

"yes."

"How did she know me?"

"I don't know, but," the palanquin man replied as he walked: "Mr. Du, you know Hua Tuo's caesarean section healing stunt, who doesn't know the city now?" Besides, there was a lawsuit in the yamen yesterday, and many people went to listen to it, so maybe there were Mei'er girls. You have been holding the sedan curtain just now, and people don't recognize it at a glance. ”

"Oh, I see!" Du Wenhao tilted his head and thought about it, as if he saw several women dressed up outside the lobby at that time, one of them was wearing a pomegranate skirt, maybe it was this Mei'er girl.

"It's a coincidence! I heard that this girl has an endless stream of guests, and I didn't expect that I happened to be free today, but I met you in the corridor and passed downstairs, which is really a fate, hehehe"

Du Wenhao waved his hand: "I don't want to have any fate with such a Qinglou woman!" ”

"Yes, yes! It's the villain who said it wrong, but I heard that this charming girl is so charming and prodigal that her bones have melted away! ”

"Hehe, have you seen it?"

"Mr. said with a smile, we who sell coolies, earn a lifetime of money, and it is not enough to invite people to have a cup of tea and listen to a little song, I heard that many rich children came from afar, just to have a night with her, but when I asked the price, we all stuck out their tongues and slipped away. She's worth a lot, and there's still an endless stream of guests looking for her like this.

Du Wenhao thought to himself, cut! How much can a Qinglou woman in a small county be worth? After finishing his robe, he found that he was still holding a small pomegranate red hydrangea wrapped in a pink handkerchief in the palm of his left hand. I wanted to throw it away, I lifted it up, a burst of fragrance was fragrant, refreshing, so I put it down again, unfolded the silk scarf handkerchief, and saw a corner embroidered with the word "Mei'er", the hydrangea the size of the green jujube, each piece was embroidered with a pattern, or the mandarin duck playing in the water, or the finch crying spring, the stitching was delicate, the form was lifelike, and I thought that if this embroidery was made by that Mei'er, not to mention anything else, this female red is really amazing.

Thinking about it carefully, although it was just a blink of an eye just now, I had already seen the appearance of that Mei'er, it was really soft to the extreme, and it was extremely charming, no wonder the sedan chair man said that the man had a spring with her for a while, and even the bones would melt away. I didn't expect that there would be such a stunner in a small county, and it really responded to the famous saying of the old man Mao - infinite scenery is at the dangerous peak.

The small sedan chair came to the yamen inside, after entering the door, stopped in the open space next to the gatehouse, the sedan chair man opened the sedan chair curtain, Du Wenhao bent out with the outpatient box, and saw Master Hou smiling at him: "Mr. Du is here!" The eldest gentleman just asked, the banquet has been prepared, please come with me! ”

"There is labor!"

Du Wenhao followed Master Hou, through the back hall living room, to the back garden in front of a pond of lake, through the nine-song corridor, to a pavilion in the center of the lake, where a table of exquisite wine banquet had been placed, and the two little maids outside the hall blessed him with a salute and stood with their hands down.

Master Hou arched his hand and said: "Please Mr. Du for a while, and the contemptible person will inform the eldest master, and the eldest master will come immediately." ”

After Master Hou left, Du Wenhao put the outpatient box on the railing seat of the gazebo, walked to the side of the hall, and glanced at a pool of lake water outside the hall, with yellow lotus leaves in twos and threes.

Just as he was looking at it, there was a burst of footsteps behind him, and before he could turn around, he heard Zhuang Zhixian's slightly hoarse voice: "Mr. Du!" Sorry to keep you waiting! ”

Du Wenhao hurriedly turned around and saw Zhuang Zhixian with three women, accompanied by Master Hou, coming in steps. One of the three women was a middle-aged woman, and the other two were dignified and beautiful young women. He didn't dare to look at it more, so he hurriedly bowed and saluted: "I've seen the big master!" ”

"Sir, don't be restrained, today is a family banquet, there are no outsiders, please take a seat!"

After the guest and host sat down, Zhuang Zhixian pointed to the middle-aged woman beside him: "This is the Humble Jing Fu family, these two are my concubines!" The big one is called Shu Die, and the small one is called Menghan. ”

Du Wenhao hurriedly got up to salute again, the woman only nodded slightly, while the two young women got up and returned the salute.

During the banquet, Zhuang Zhixian frequently persuaded Du Wenhao to drink, which was very hospitable. The magistrate is very talkative, and he can be described as talking, but most of the talks are about the Four Books and Five Classics, Du Wenhao was at a loss, but Nuo Nuo nodded. The two concubines ate very little, sat upright, did not squint, and didn't even see them laugh a few times, but Zhuang Zhixian loved the two of them very much, and personally gave them two dishes from time to time. Zhuang Zhixian's wife also spoke very little, and when she said it, she only answered a sentence or two, but Master Hou was clever and good at observing words and feelings, and from time to time gave Zhuang Zhixian's words footnotes and circumstantial evidence.

Master Hou saw that Du Wenhao seemed to be not interested in the topic of the Four Books and Five Classics, so he quietly introduced the topic of Zhuang Zhixian to the way of health preservation, and Zhuang Zhixian also sincerely asked how to maintain health.

Zhuang Zhixian and his wife Fu Shi, the two concubines are very interested in this topic, and they interject from time to time to ask questions, and the audience listens attentively, Du Wenhao is naturally happy to talk about it, and the atmosphere at the banquet is suddenly much more harmonious.

At the end of the banquet, Du Wenhao was already slightly drunk. Originally, Du Wenhao stopped drinking until he drank properly, but he thought that he would have to see the county master after a while, so he didn't dare to let go of drinking.

The banquet was withdrawn, and the maids served fragrant tea. The old woman and the two concubines got up and said goodbye, and when the old woman was leaving, she whispered something to the maids, and the maids withdrew from the banquet, and after serving tea, they all waited far away and did not enter the pavilion.

Master Hou also left under the pretext of dealing with official documents. In the pavilion, there were only Zhuang Zhixian and Du Wenhao.
