Chapter 47: Eating and Drinking
---- continue to fulfill what it says, and the second ---
Out of the tea shop, when the street was lively, Liu Xi took the lead, walked in front of everyone, looked left and right casually, and didn't seem to take what he had just done to heart. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Childe stays!"
was playing with the pearl and jade artifacts sold on the stall on the side, but he heard the sound of calling behind him, and Wu Shuang'er, who turned around first, couldn't help but whisper, "Childe, it's the little lang from the tea shop just now." ”
The corners of his mouth were slightly upturned without showing any traces, Liu Xi put down the few rings in his hand, lost a piece of silver, and took one of the jade rings with white jade skin and a touch of verdant water in them and handed it to Tian Xun'er, "Those days, thanks to Miss Tian's care, this jade ring is also compatible with the girl, and it should be a little bit of Xi's heart." ”
The fair-skinned face gave birth to a faint flush, Tian Xun'er lowered her head, stretched out her hand to take the jade ring, and then raised her head to look at Liu Xi, the willow eyebrows were full of peach blossoms, and the horse embroidery on the side was about to make fun, and when she remembered Tian Xun'er's identity, she couldn't help but swallow the words that came to her mouth, after all, he couldn't beat the two long swords beside him.
And at this moment, that Zhang Xiaoquan had already arrived in front of Liu Xi, and under the trot, he was panting, and his cuffs were dyed red, thinking that he had just wiped the blood on his mouth. When I saw Liu Xi, my eyes flashed a little for some reason, and I didn't dare to face him.
After a while, Zhang Xiaoquan took a deep breath and calmed down, and then as if he had made up his mind, he looked up at Liu Xi and said, "Childe, thank you for coming to the rescue, Zhang Xiaoquan is an orphan and widow, and I hope that Childe can take him in." ”
After saying this, Zhang Xiaoquan held his breath again, didn't dare to look at Liu Xi again, looked down at the linen shoes that had been sewn up many times and were still torn, and leaned his feet together a little crampedly, trying to cover the hole between his thumbs.
He didn't know why he had to chase him out, maybe it was because the personable smile in front of him made him feel very warm, warm as if he was saying concern to him, or maybe it was because of the previous sentence 'I will make your dreams come true', at this moment, Zhang Xiaoquan couldn't distinguish it, but he had an irrepressible impulse in his heart that made him chase it out.
"You are a filial son, settle your mother first, and as for other things, I will tell you later."
The humble voice sounded again, Zhang Xiaoquan didn't raise his head, he saw a hand handed over a silver ingot, this silver seemed to be as much as five taels, he had never seen so much silver since he was born, even if he had saved money to steal the red-bottom rice paper of the couplet, it was just a tael of silver, and he spent it today.
What he bought was the bracelet that had been discovered by the abominable Zhang before, it was a silver bracelet that was missing two catties and was of extremely poor condition. Zhang Xiaoquan saw that all the women's families had bracelets, not to mention that the Zhang family had a few pieces of gold and silver, and even the mother-in-law of Xu on the street had a yellowed silver bracelet, and she often pretended to accidentally expose it in the cold of this winter.
If my mother also had a bracelet, I would be very happy, right?
Zhang Xiaoquan often thinks like this, in order to buy the bracelet, he secretly saved up the silver for a long time, until the past two days to resell the red rice paper of the couplet to save enough silver, so he happily bought it, just to let the mother's wrist who has worked hard for half a life have a little more happiness on the woman's wrist.
And now, the five taels of silver were given to him like this, Zhang Xiaoquan was stunned and didn't know how to do it.
"Take it, it's time for the new year, take your mother to buy some new clothes, you also need to change your jacket and eat some decent food, otherwise you will starve." Brother Qu, you find a small courtyard for his mother and son, and settle them down for the time being. ”
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoquan, who had gritted his teeth and survived despite being beaten and scolded all these years, only felt that his eyes were very sour, and there were a thousand words in his chest, but in the end, he could only bend over and make a deep gesture, "Childe, don't thank you for your kindness, Zhang Xiaoquan is a rough person, and he can't say any big reason, so he will obey Childe's orders in the future." ”
After saying this, Zhang Xiaoquan followed Qu Lang, walked to the woman in linen who was standing in the distance, helped her forward, and lowered his head to say something, the latter suddenly stopped and wanted to turn around, but was stopped by Zhang Xiaoquan, and could only look back.
It's a tearful look.
"No matter how difficult the people's livelihood is, Yusheng has done a good thing again."
Ma Xiu said softly, but Liu Xi didn't break his other plans, just shook his head and sighed, "You and I are just Shengdou Xiaomin, and there is only this way to do, and how much can we do in the future, only with dedication." ”
Nodding, Ma Xiu shook the folding fan away, fanned the cold wind behind the snow, rolled his clothes, and gently shook the half of the long hair behind his head, "Brother Yusheng said very much, as the so-called seeking his government in his position, the words of the sages have exhausted the true flavor of it, we are weak after all, and such matters of people's livelihood still depend on the court." But then again, if you can pass the examination this time, beat the horse and the street, and roll call the Golden Palace, you and I can show our strengths......"
Shaking his head and saying, when he came back to his senses, where could he still see Liu Xi and others, and immediately angrily closed the paper fan and knocked it on the palm of his left palm, "This Liu Yusheng, I dropped the embroidery again and again, such friends, it's really annoying!" ”
gritted his teeth and said this, and then pulled his legs to chase after him, "Yusheng, Shuang'er, wait for me......"
The cold wind blew, the sky was cold, and the night came much earlier than usual, carrying many things, Liu Xi walked to the restaurant satisfied. After looking at the market for a long time, I finally bought something for everyone. Wu Shuang'er and Qin behind him were still talking about the strangeness of the clothes and jewelry they bought, and although Tian Xun'er couldn't talk about it, she was also gesturing. The girl really likes to buy some beautiful and strange things, otherwise, how could Liu Xi, Ma Xiu, Dawu, and Xiaowu all be the ones who pick up the goods and run errands, and even the hurried Qu Lang was not spared.
I found a slightly famous restaurant, but because it was late, there was no private room. In the lobby, the aroma of the dishes is fragrant, the dishes are scattered with the heat, many people in different clothes are eating and drinking, talking about things from all over the world, and the little guy who serves the dishes is flexible between the tables, adding tea and pouring water, serving food and pouring wine.
"It's a lively scene, talking happily, eating happily, wonderful!"
Ma Xiu praised loudly, and sat down at one of the few empty tables, Liu Xi also sat down with him, he didn't feel noisy, on the contrary, Liu Xi preferred this environment, unrestrained, and could hear some of the most prevalent things at the moment.
So, the group ordered dishes at the table next to the corner of the wall, the weather was bitter cold, Ma Xiu ordered a pot of warm wine, Xiao Wu, who had never drunk wine in the past few days, was brought out by him to get rid of his addiction to alcohol, where can he bear it when he sees the wine urn, even Dawu, who is not smiling, is also bright.
However, Liu Xi is not very happy with the drink, not because he is afraid of getting drunk, with his current cultivation, even if he drinks the entire Jialing City, his face will not change color, but some habits are difficult to change once they are formed, unless it is something that is difficult to refuse, such as the last time in Sun Hu's home, he will not take a sip of wine.
Seeing that Ma Xiu was making fun of drinking again, Liu Xi just smiled and shook his head, ate two bites of the delicacies on the table, and suddenly whispered, "On this kind of day, how good it would be to be able to eat a hot pot." ”
It's a pity that there have to be chili peppers, for more than ten years, Liu Xi has never seen this thing, and now, he can only sigh two sentences.
On the side, Wu Shuang'er, who was picking up vegetables, stopped chopsticks, looked back and stared at the big eyes and asked, "Childe, what is the hot pot?" ”
Hearing Wu Shuang'er's question, Liu Xi shook his head, sandwiched a piece of honey fish to the little girl and said with a smile, "It's nothing, but I said casually, Shuang'er, this is your favorite food, but you have to eat more." ”
Dealing with Wu Shuang'er, Liu Xi with a little loss, laughed with everyone again and ate the food, maybe it was to the end of the meal, Xiao Wu poured the last drop of wine in the wine urn, and frowned, "Brother Jinchao, although this wine is dry, but Xiao Wu still feels uncomfortable to drink, in such a cold time, although you and I are cultivating and don't feel cold, but I still feel how comfortable it must be to be able to swallow a fire!" ”
Ma Xiu's face was a little red, he took a sip of the wine in the cup, shook the fan and said, "Brother Xiaowu, you don't know, this kind of wine is better than the soft and intoxicating mood, I have also heard of the spirits you said, but the production is extremely rare, and even the people who make wine don't know how to do it, and they can only get it by chance." I was fortunate enough to taste the wine embroidery, and it was really heart-wrenching, and it was very refreshing! ”
"Ma Gongzi, there is a fire in your heart, but you don't want to burn your clothes!"
Wu Shuang'er bit the chopsticks, squinted the big eyes of the crescent moon, and smiled stupidly, and she joked that the others also laughed. Ma Xiu ignored it, picked up the wine glass and took another bite, perhaps remembering the taste of the spirits, and suddenly felt tasteless in his mouth, smashed his mouth and put down the glass, and continued to talk about the spirits with Xiao Wu, who was full of expectations. He is the one who spits out the lotus flower in his tongue, and he recalls this strong wine with the previous wandering, causing Xiao Wu to swallow his saliva constantly, and also making several girls laugh and tremble.
Under the laughter of everyone, naturally they didn't notice that Liu Xi stopped his chopsticks and frowned, and after a while, he raised his head, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was far better than before, and called the little guy, "Man, two more jars of wine!" ”
It's a habit not to drink, but there are times when the habit is broken, and that's when you have something extremely happy and need alcohol to cheer up. Ma Xiu was a little dumbfounded, he didn't know that the previous few words had brought Liu Xi a steady stream of silver, and he stretched out his fan in disbelief and shook it in front of Liu Xi's eyes, "Yusheng, aren't you a person who doesn't drink a drop of wine?" Is it so hard that you want to make Xiu carry you back tonight? ”
Patting the sealing mud of the wine urn and smelling the faint aroma, Liu Xi took the lead in filling a bowl, "Today, before you have drunk two sips, you say such big words, aren't you afraid that the wind will flash your tongue?" ”
After that, he drank it all, this kind of pride was seen in Ma Xiu's eyes, he immediately pushed away the cup in his hand, took the wine bowl, and the same was true of the big and small Wu, and later, he saw four green glazed porcelain bowls full of wine touching together, and under the hearty laughter, they drank together.
