Chapter 266: A Charming Girl Is Like Silk
Meng Tianchu said: "Xiao Er has been in Hangzhou for some years. ”
Xiao Er nodded hurriedly, poured tea for them, and said, "I am a native of Hangzhou." ”
Meng Tianchu sighed, and then said casually: "I heard that this Hangzhou city is full of gold, and there are many rich people. ”
Xiao Er said: "The guest officer is a foreigner." ”
Meng Tianchu nodded.
Xiao Er said: "That's true, there are indeed many rich people in this Hangzhou city." ”
Meng Tianchu said: "On the way here, I also heard a very funny joke, which was about the rich people in Hangzhou City, but I think the person who said this to me exaggerated the truth I don't know how many times." ”
Xiao Er said curiously: "The guest officer might as well tell the little one, there is nothing in Hangzhou City that I don't know." ”
Meng Tianchu said: "It is said that there is a rich man in Hangzhou City, and he actually spent 10,000 taels of silver to redeem the girl for a girl in a green building." I really laughed at it. ”
Xiao Er hurriedly said: "This is a real thing, the person who told you about this didn't lie to you." ”
Meng Tianchu pretended to be very suspicious and looked at Xiao Er.
Xiao Er said: "It's only been a year since this incident, how could I not know? At that time, it was really a sensation in the whole city of Hangzhou. It's a pity that the woman's fate is not good, the old man of the He family spent so much money to redeem her, and she died before she could enjoy the blessings. ”
Meng Tianchu said as if surprised: "There is really such a thing, how can that old man of the He family marry a sick man and go home?" Then he didn't accompany his wife and fold the soldiers, he would have known that he would not redeem it. 10,000 taels, what a pity. ”
Xiao Er said: "We all say so, but I heard that the woman didn't die of illness, and said that she was strangled to death by a ghost, which is quite scary." Then again, Master He is doing a big deal, and he will not earn it again tomorrow after spending it today! Now people are not living at ease every day. ”
"Yes, too. Besides, there are so many beautiful girls in the world, he can marry again. It's just that how old is the old man of the He family this year, is the wife of the family old and ugly? ”
Xiao Er said with a smile: "Guest officer, don't you know that girl is so beautiful, I'm afraid there are few who can compare, just say that the one that the He family is marrying now, I heard that it is still the maid of the previous woman, so there is no comparison at all." As for Mrs. He's family, it seems that she has always lived in a simple house, and she rarely sees her. In fact, the old man of the He family is not very old, but he is only in his early forties, and he is very strong. ”
Meng Tianchu wanted to ask something, but Xiao Er said: "I can't tell you, if the shopkeeper sees me, I will be miserable." If you don't believe it, you can go to the opposite shop to have a look, the largest shop in Hangzhou is in He's house. You can see it as soon as you go, just across the street. After saying that, he hurried away with a teapot.
Meng Tianchu looked in the direction of Xiao Erzhi, and sure enough, on the opposite side of the street, there was a blue and blue flag hanging on it, and the flag read: "He Family Shop".
The rain finally stopped, Meng Tianchu and Zhu Hao came down from the teahouse, came to the shop of the He family opposite, walked in, it seems that the goods are really complete, there are goods from the north and south of the river, and it is a little similar to the supply and marketing cooperatives in the early days of reform and opening up.
A man saw someone coming in, so he greeted Meng Tianchu warmly through the counter: "What do the two guest officers need?" ”
Meng Tianchu looked at it and said, "We came here to see it, and I heard that your He family's shop has a lot of goods, so I came over and prepared to buy more and bring it back." ”
When the man heard Meng Tianchu's tone, he knew that he had met a big customer, so he hurriedly asked the guy to serve tea to Meng Tianchu and them, and walked out of the counter himself.
Meng Tianchu said: "You are the owner of this shop?" ”
The man hurriedly laughed and said, "My lord's name is He Yingming, and I am just the shopkeeper in his shop." ”
Meng Tianchu nodded and said, "Because I need more goods, do you count?" ”
The man: "How much do you want?" ”
Meng Tianchu said: "As long as it is the goods from the north, what you have, I want some." ”
The man was stunned, this is not a small business, and it is not a joke to look at Meng Tianchu, he also wants to be a rich person when he dresses up, and this big customer can't be lost from his hands.
The man hurriedly said: "It's really not a coincidence, my lord took the whole family to the temple to burn incense early in the morning, and he will probably be able to come back tomorrow." ”
"What kind of temple, it's so far, I'm mainly in a hurry to go back, I have other business waiting for me."
"It's the Niangniang Temple outside Hangzhou."
Meng Tianchu said: "That's not very far, isn't it?" ”
"Far from it, the main thing is that the eldest lady must go to eat there on the fifth and fifteenth and twenty-fifth days of the new year, so the whole family accompanies her. It is usually necessary to stay for one night before returning. ”
Meng Tianchu stood up and said, "Then I'll come back tomorrow." ”
The man hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, tomorrow I will definitely ask my master to wait for you in the store." ”
Meng Tianchu nodded, took Zhu Hao and turned to leave.
Zhu Hao said: "Young Master, where are we going now?" ”
Meng Tianchu jumped into the car and said, "Let's also go to Niangniang Temple for fasting." ”
The two rushed to the Niangniang Temple in a carriage.
It's really strong here, from the perspective of people who have always come, most of them are women, Meng Tianchu and Zhu Hao also asked for a pillar of incense, standing in the crowd to make a look, a woman next to her saw two men also standing there with incense, so she whispered to the people next to her: "Why do two big men also come here to join in the fun?" ”
The woman next to her snickered: "I probably hope that my wife will give birth to a child for herself as soon as possible." ”
Another said: "It's okay to say that the young man next to him is like that, he won't still want to be a father." ”
Meng Tianchu listened, looked at Zhu Hao secretly, and also felt funny, so he snickered.
Zhu Hao naturally heard it, and glared at the women: "I'm old-hearted, can't I?" ”
The women were taken aback, then they burst out laughing, leaning back with a smile. Meng Tianchu couldn't help but laugh when he saw Zhu Hao's face flushed.
After the incense, Meng Tianchu took Zhu Hao to walk around the temple, this temple is actually much smaller than many temples in Hangzhou, why the incense is still so good, there is probably a certain reason.
Zhu Hao said: "Young master, shall we go around like this?" We didn't know the old man and the maid, even if we passed by, we didn't necessarily know that it was them. ”
Meng Tianchu nodded and said, "That makes sense, then let's go to the dining hall in their temple and take a look, maybe we will know." ”
It was almost time to eat, and Meng Tianchu took Zhu Hao to the dining hall in the temple.
There are not many people eating fasting here, and they sit in twos and threes. Those who come to the temple to eat fast and the monks in the temple eat in two separate parts.
Meng Tianchu looked at it, stopped a monk who was passing food, and asked, "Master, we want to eat fast, how should we eat?" ”
The monk returned the salute, pointed to the many wooden rafts hanging in front of the canteen, with the names of various dishes written on them, and said: "The donor can tell the little monk according to the above points, and the little monk will serve it to you." ”
"I don't know what to eat for the first time!" Meng Tianchu frowned thoughtfully, and said, "Doesn't Master He in our city often come to eat?" He must know what is delicious, so let us serve whatever he likes. ”
The monk smiled and said, "Presumably it was Lord He who introduced you, and he and his wife just went in, didn't you see it?" ”
Meng Tianchu looked around, pretending not to see it, and said, "I just cared about the dishes, and I really didn't pay attention." ”
The monk pointed to a private room not far in front of him and said, "Where are they?" ”
Meng Tianchu sighed, and then said, "Then don't disturb their whole family, let's just eat by ourselves." ”
The monk said, "Why don't I order a few of our more characteristic dishes for the two donors to try?" ”
Meng Tianchu hurriedly thanked the enthusiastic monk, it seems that this ancient monk is already very business-conscious, and he also does something to make you look comfortable, which is also called ability.
Meng Tianchu and Zhu Hao found a place not far from the private room and sat down, which happened to be able to see the door of the private room.
The curtain of the private room is down, and it is very quiet inside, it seems that the Buddhist door is important, and everyone is still paying attention to it, which is different from the general restaurant after all.
After a while, a little monk brought Meng Tianchu's dish up, it looked good, the braised pork made with tofu was the same as the real thing, and only when you ate it in your mouth would you realize that it was actually tofu.
The two of them ate casually, and after a while, the elegant room finally came out, first a man in his forties, medium stature, probably because of the long-term exposure to the wind and sun, dark skin, small eyes, big mouth, the most prominent thing on the face is the big rosacea nose, there is really nothing to look at, fortunately, women only look at men's wallets, and appearance is not important, this should be the legendary He Yingming.
Then came a woman, in her fifties, short in stature, whose body was clearly showing signs of fat, and whose satin clothes had been deformed by the fat. There are three layers of chin, almost covering the pearl necklace around the neck. A maid next to her carefully supported her, for fear that she would accidentally fall, and her flesh would go down, and probably there would be an extra pit for putting water tanks in the canteen.
Zhu Hao muttered in a low voice: "No wonder he takes a concubine, his wife is really old and ugly." Before the words fell, a woman came out of the private room, who was seventeen or eighteen years old, although she was not very beautiful and beautiful, but also delicate, with a pair of slender jade hands, gently shaking the snake waist and fat buttocks, wearing a goose yellow long skirt, embroidered with a phoenix between the sleeves of Bixia Luo, a pink smoke gauze skirt that mopped the floor, and a jasper dragon and phoenix hairpin on her head. Especially the pair of slightly squinted silky eyes, looking around, inadvertently, his eyes were aimed at Meng Tianchu, an intoxicating little mouth, and suddenly bloomed with a hint of a snatchy smile, the bewitching eyes burned like a ghost, needless to say, this woman is Qin'er.
Meng Tianchu saw Qin'er looking at him so coquettishly and seductively, so he also returned a smile that was fascinated.
Qin'er saw it, but it was calm, she smiled, gently wiped the towel in her hand with her red lips, deliberately separated from the person in front of her at some distance, and turned her head to look at Meng Tianchu from time to time while walking, Meng Tianchu also looked at Qin'er's smile all the time, and when she was about to go out, Qin'er seemed to be unintentional, and the scarf in her hand slipped down in Meng Tianchu's sight.
How could Meng Tianchu not know what Qin'er's intentions were, how could such a small action escape his bright eyes. The figure like the wind has followed, picked up the scarf, and saw the front Qin Er bewitching his slender waist and round buttocks, the movement is not big, it looks natural and does not show traces, it seems that this is the so-called natural coquettishness.
Meng Tianchu stepped forward and said softly, "Little lady, I think your things have been lost." ”
Qin'er turned her head slightly, the people in front of her were already far apart, she smiled slightly, took the incense towel handed over by Meng Tianchu, and spit out a soft word in her small mouth, "Thank you, Childe." "The waves of his eyes are wandering, as if they are about to drip water.
Meng Tianchu said: "Did the little lady also come here to ask for marriage?" ”
Qin'er giggled and said in a low voice: "If I had met a man who was as graceful and handsome as Gongzi earlier, I would have been busy going to be merry and happy every day, why would I come to such a place to beg the Bodhisattva to give me a man?" ”
This kind of teasing is too obvious, I just have to tell you the time and place directly, what a sullen mother-in-law!
Meng Tianchu chuckled and winked at her: "The little lady is so beautiful, so that Xiao Sheng can't help but lose his soul when he sees it, how can he not have a favorite Langjun to accompany him?" ”
Qin'er said: "I also want to, but where to find such a man who is in love?" ”
