Chapter 25: She
Lu Chengkong, who lives in the future, is accustomed to all information coming from the Internet. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info especially when you open the web page every morning, a huge amount of information from all over the world will rush to you. However, when he was in ancient times, he realized that the pace of life was surprisingly slow. Not only is the news blocked, but it also spreads as slowly as a turtle. He wanted to know anything, and there was no other way than to ask someone.
In this world, there are two kinds of people who have the most information, one is the person who reads, and the other is the person who walks the rivers and lakes. The information passed on by the people in the rivers and lakes is extremely mysterious, if in the future, Lu Chengkong will scoff at these strange stories, but at this moment, the more nonsense he is, the more he believes it.
Lu Chengkong studied "Lu Sheng's Art of War" at night, and asked people about all kinds of strange stories during the day, but he didn't get any clues about how to return to the future. How could he not be in a hurry? But it's useless to be anxious, there is no place to use your strength in vain.
And every day when he went to Simenxue and listened to the "buzzing" endorsement, Lu Chengkong had a headache. He sat in the school, although most of his body had integrated into this world, but he couldn't help but ask himself: "I came to this world to learn these feudal superstitions?" Do you want to spend your whole life reciting these 'who are also the ones who are the same'? ”
The more he thought about this, the more impatient Lu Chengkong became.
On this day, after dinner.
Lu Chengkong locked himself in the room again, he looked at the bookcase full of sage books, suddenly stood up, and said to himself: "No, I don't want to live like this...... I don't want to be a part of this world, I don't belong here! Everything I did was to go back! He threw the Analects in his hand on the ground, gritted his teeth, and said, "I really don't want to go to this place of Simenxue again!" ”
But just a moment later, his eyes dimmed again, and he had to accept the reality: he didn't even understand this world, let alone how to go back......
Lu Chengkong had no intention of studying the "Lu Sheng's Art of War", pushed open the door, and wandered the street listlessly.
In ancient times, although the night was the same moon compared to the future, there was no bustling noise, and such a simple silence could make people's hearts no longer impetuous.
Lu Chengkong walked alone in the county seat, his eyes a little dull. After all, it has been a few months since he came to this world, and everything around him has gradually become familiar, and the path next to his home, an official river, seems to have been in his life.
The fresh mountain breeze blew from behind, and although Lu Chengkong's chest was still stuffy, he still took a deep breath, cheered up, and said secretly: "I can't be deflated, I will definitely be able to go back!" ”
Lu Chengkong didn't realize that when he gradually integrated into this world, he was powerless to resist everything, so he could only follow his own path.
Crossing the river, Lu Chengkong walked into the city, and after a while, he came to the door of a silk village, although it was evening, the silk village was still brightly lit.
"Lu Gongzi, are you well? But come to my lady? A young girl carrying a lantern walked towards Lu Chengkong Shanshan, followed by two families.
It turned out that this place was Zhongli's Silk Village, and the young girl was a maid in the house, named Bi'er.
"Your young lady?" Lu Chengkong stayed in place, the girl in front of him, looking young and pretty, wearing soft silk, knew at a glance that she was a servant girl of a rich family. He didn't know how to answer, so he hurriedly looked left and right for a while, raised his head, and saw that the plaque of the silk village had three big characters written on it, "Zhongli's", and after capturing all this information, his brain was running rapidly: "From the name of this maid, she must know me." The owner of this place should be surnamed 'Zhongli', then she is most likely the maid of Zhongli's silk village. She said that I came to her young lady, and that was ...... I know her young lady, so what is our relationship? ”
Seeing that Lu Chengkong didn't speak, looking dumbfounded, Bi'er and the two family members behind him immediately smiled. Bi'er hid her face and smiled: "Master Lu, the silk you asked for earlier, my young lady has already picked it for you, and I will bring it for you." ”
Lu Chengkong was stunned in place, just looking at the brightly lit silk shop, but he still couldn't come back to his senses.
"Master Lu, come in with me!" Seeing that Lu Chengkong was motionless, Bi'er urged.
"Oh...... Oh. Lu Chengkong had to take a deep breath, settle down, and follow in. At this moment, he suddenly recalled the love poems that he had turned out in the house before, and said secretly in his heart: "Could it be that he in this world really has a sweetheart?" That...... So how do I face her? But then he emboldened himself and said, "Whatever, just come to get a silk, don't talk nonsense." ”
The owner of the silk village here is named Zhong Lijin, who is one of the top businessmen in Ying County, and the silk village opened is also the largest in Ying County. His ancestors have been in business for generations, and when the family passed down to Zhong Lijin's generation, it was a peaceful and prosperous era, and after some struggles, he was already considered a rich party. It's just that the status of the merchant is low, and the land he divides is very small, not to mention, and he is not even qualified to participate in the imperial examination, but he only has one daughter under his knees, and he is worried about the wealth of the family and does not know who to pass it on.
As soon as he stepped into the silk village, Lu Chengkong pretended to be calm and walked slowly, but his eyes had already glanced around, his hands were a little nervous, and he said secretly: "Miss...... Ancient Lady ...... Is it really my sweetheart? He hadn't thought that there would be a person he was in love with, but at this moment, a "big lady" suddenly appeared, and Lu Chengkong was a little caught off guard.
For this strange and destined her, Lu Chengkong wants to see but does not dare to see her, this feeling makes people's hearts beat faster, and it is incomparably wonderful.
Just when Lu Chengkong was in a trance, he suddenly heard a person in the village say loudly: "Lord Yin, Master Yin, please come in!" ”
Everyone turned their heads to look, and it turned out that the person who spoke was the shopkeeper of the Silk Village, Zhong Lijin. The Lord Yin in his mouth is the master of Ying County, Yin Zhuo, and Yin Gongzi is Lu Chengkong's acquaintance, Yin Zhengyi.
When Zhong Lijin saw Yin Zhuo coming to the Silk Village, he immediately smiled on his face, rushed forward, clasped his hands in front of his chest, bowed, and said, "Master Yin is here, and the grass people are far away. ”
Yin Zhuo had a faint smile on his face, nodded and said, "Is there a good silk?" In a few days, it will be his mother's birthday, and Yin will choose two pieces of silk for his mother. Yin Zhengyi stood behind him with a smile and a groaning hand.
Zhong Lijin hurriedly bent down and pointed to the inner hall and said, "Lord Yin, please come inside, the grass people have prepared high-grade silk, and if you are careful, you will definitely be satisfied." With that, he pulled Yin Zhuo towards the inner room.
It was the first time Lu Chengkong saw an ancient official, and secretly thought: "The noble man who bowed his head just now must be the shopkeeper of this silk village." I didn't expect that the small county town master book could have such a big official authority. With such a large scale of this silk village, it seems that the shopkeeper must be a man with exquisite faces. But Lu Chengkong's attention is more on Zhong Lijin, judging from his luxurious temperament, his daughter's appearance will not be bad.
After Bi'er saw Zhong Lijin leaving, she turned to Lu Chengkong and said, "Master Lu, wait a while, the silk prepared by the young lady is in the back room, I'll go in and get it." With that, he walked towards the back room.
After a while, Bi'er walked out of the back room and handed the silk to Lu Chengkong.
After looking for so long, he didn't see her, Lu Chengkong was half relaxed and half lost.
"Thank you, girl." He didn't want to stay long, so he took the silk from Bi'er's hand, glanced at the silk village twice, and then turned to leave.
As soon as Lu Chengkong turned around, he saw a girl smiling faintly at himself under a tree not far away. This girl is slim, wearing a green gauze shirt, thin eyebrows are half-curved, and her autumn-like eyes are extremely moving in the moonlight.
The girl's smile made Lu Chengkong's mind blank. As soon as he lifted his foot, he tripped over the threshold, his body was unstable, and he almost fell, Bi'er and Jiading on the side hurriedly stepped forward to support Lu Chengkong and said, "Master Lu, watch your step." ”
Lu Chengkong helped his family so that he didn't fall to the ground, he was in a cold sweat, smiled very embarrassed, and said, "I...... I'm fine. He secretly said in his heart: "How can you make a fool of yourself in this scene!" But he didn't dare to look up at the girl in the distance, he had an intuition that she was the eldest lady of Zhongli's Silk Village.
"Poof......" The girl in the distance looked at Lu Chengkong's stupid appearance and couldn't help laughing.
"Miss." Bi'er and Jiading greeted him, pointed to Lu Chengkong, who was still standing in place, and said, "Bi'er has already handed over the silk to Lu Gongzi." ”
This daughter is Zhong Lijin's only daughter, with the compound surname Zhong Li, and a single name.
Zhong Liruo was still standing under the tree, staring at Lu Chengkong.
When Lu Chengkong heard Bi'er shouting the word "Miss", he knew that he couldn't hide and had to walk over. So he took awkward steps and walked to the bottom of the tree. He stopped ten steps away from Zhong Liruo, his heart tightened to his throat, but he just lowered his head, not daring to look at the person in front of him.
"Master Lu, why are you so far away from me?" Since Lu Chengkong had always been shy in front of him, Zhong Liruo didn't feel strange.
"Oh...... Oh. Lu Chengkong smelled the faint fragrance on Zhong Liruo's body, took two steps forward, and nodded stupidly.
Zhong Liruo was born in a Yin Shi family, and learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, etiquette and poetry since he was a child. When he grows up, he is generous and fresh. She and Lu Chengkong have known each other for three years, how could she not know his love for her? Lu Chengkong is also a talent, although he is young and frivolous, he always has a sense of arrogance in his bones that attracts him. How can a girl not have a spring? has been in contact with him for a long time, and Fang Xin has secretly made a few points.
"Miss, let's go back first." Bi'er and Jia Ding knew that the two must have something to say, so they walked away with each other.
"Lu Gongzi, I personally selected the silk for you, but do you like it?" Zhong Liruo said softly.
Lu Chengkong still lowered his head and said, "Happy, happy...... Like. ”
"Are you still not well? Why don't you dare look up at me? Zhongli thought that Lu Chengkong's illness had not yet recovered, and said with some concern.
"No, it's not good...... No, no, no, all right, all right! Lu Chengkong raised his head, just glanced at Zhong Liruo's appearance, his mind was blank, and he was already incoherent.
This was the first time he had seen a beautiful woman in ancient times, and it was so moving.
"Since you're in good shape, why...... Why don't you come to see ......" Zhongli saw Lu Chengkong's stupid appearance, and he also wanted to stop talking.
"I'm ......" Lu Chengkong plucked up the courage to raise his head, but when he looked at Zhong Liruo again, his face couldn't help but turn red.
"Master Lu, it seems that your body is completely well." Zhong Liruo suddenly became a little lost, and said softly, "It's getting late, go back quickly." ”
Lu Chengkong clenched the silk in his hand, and didn't know what to say, but he still held back a sentence: "Okay, thank you...... The satin of your choice. ”
Zhongli just nodded slightly, and walked towards the silk village.
Lu Chengkong caught Zhong Liruo's lost expression, and said secretly, "Did I say the wrong thing?" But he couldn't help but think about it, just looked at Zhong Liruo's gradual back, and suddenly felt melancholy in his heart.
