Chapter 92: Chang'an's Thoughts
Today's Chang'an City is already in the hot summer, and the lotus flowers on Jinguang Lake are blooming.
It has been more than a month since Wang Xiang left with the envoys, and Wu Shun is looking forward to his early return every day. During these days, Li Zhi has been running more diligently to the Hou Mansion, although Xiao Lori also misses Wang Xiang, but Li Zhi, who has been around her all day long, is always in a better mood.
The Yang family has been very humble and low-key since he lived in the Hou Mansion with Wu Shun, but secretly he deliberately matched Xiao Lori and Li Zhi, but Xiao Lori has never been kind to Li Zhi.
"Child, why are you so stupid, you can't even pretend to be a wooden bird, if only your brother-in-law was here."
Li Zhi, who was sweating profusely when he heard Xiao Lori's complaints, hurriedly said, "Soon, it'll be fine soon." ”
Little Lori pouted dissatisfiedly: "You've said this dozens of times, it's time to eat in a while, will you do it, don't you be allowed to eat." ”
King Jin is not allowed to eat, and only little Lori dares to say it so justifiably.
"Ernan, His Royal Highness the King of Jin helped you assemble the wooden bird, why do you still complain about him." Wu Shun was a little upset for Li Zhi, she was sitting under an elm tree in the courtyard and calculating the income of Gewu Courtyard these days, Dengxian Lou also had the income of a wine shop, and it was not difficult to do the arithmetic and bookkeeping methods taught to her by Wang Xiang, but it would take some time. Although Gewuyuan, Dengxian Tower, and Yipin Wine Workshop all have account offices, they are all counted separately, and Steward Wang will bring back the account books from several places every few days. Originally, it has always been the Wang housekeeper who is also in charge of the bookkeeper in the house, but since the Hou Mansion has more and more industries, the business is getting bigger and bigger, and the Wang housekeeper is too late to take care of the business, so the matter of calculating the general account was taken over by Wu Shun, and the Wang housekeeper originally wanted to invite an account room back and didn't want Wu Shun to work hard, but Wu Shun felt that he had nothing to do in the house, and the invited account room was really not as good as herself.
Li Zhi heard Wu Shun help him speak, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Sister Wu, I'm not hungry, I'll be able to load it soon." After speaking, he wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, he still looks like a prince now.
"Stupid, stupid!" Little Lori stomped her foot.
Li Zhi wanted to cry without tears, in addition to arithmetic, he was the best in the Academy of Things, except for the arithmetic that Chen Daqi, he was the best in the Academy of Things, but he got a stupid evaluation in front of Xiao Lori. Li Zhi has won almost all the awards of the Gewu Academy, Li Shen and Li Zhen are very envious of him, the reward is a trivial matter, and the key is to have face.
The wooden bird that Li Zhi is assembling is a toy that Wang Xiang used to make for little Lori, which can glide in the air for a short time, and is Little Lori's favorite toy.
Li Zhi was very excited to be so valued by the little Lori, patting his chest and promising to install the wooden bird soon, but the cowhide was blown up, and he couldn't figure out how to assemble it after a busy morning, but fortunately, Wu Shun brought the drawings left by Wang Xiang and asked him to compare and assemble it, which was barely installed, but there is still some distance from resuming the gliding function.
Li Zhi finally didn't embarrass the Gewuyuan, and when Aunt Lin came over to greet him for dinner, the wooden bird was finally assembled and made a successful test flight.
Looking at the cheering little Lori Li Zhi felt very satisfied, and admired Wang Xiang even more, a few days ago, Gewuyuan had just completed a feat of manned flight of Kong Ming lantern, even Li Er was shocked, of course, Li Zhi failed to become the first person to fly into the sky, Li Chunfeng got Wang Xiang's instructions not to let Li Zhi or Li Shen they board Kong Ming lantern, in fact, Wang Xiang did not instruct Li Chunfeng and would not let them take risks, if something happened, it was not a joke.
In order to please the little Lori, after eating, Li Zhi asked people to make some wooden birds according to the drawings and assemble them by himself, so that the next time the little Lori accidentally broke the wooden birds, she could play with a new one.
The ancients paid attention to food and did not say anything, without Wang Xiang, he always felt a lot boring when eating, there were no hilarious jokes to listen to, and there were no exciting stories to listen to.
"Sister, when did you say my brother-in-law would come back?" Little Lori used chopsticks to flick the food in the bowl, looking listless.
Wu Shun shook his head and was silent, just going back and forth on the road would take several months, and besides, there were things that His Majesty had explained, and I don't know how long it would take to complete.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little gloomy, Li Zhi said, "Sister Xiaowu, let me tell you a story." ”
"No, the stories you tell are all told by your brother-in-law."
"Well, I'll tell you a joke."
"No, your jokes aren't funny at all."
The atmosphere at the dinner table was even more dull, everyone didn't feel anything when Wang Xiang was there, and as soon as he left, he realized that only he could bring so much joy to everyone, and even Li Zhi began to miss the days when Wang Xiang was there.
"After eating, Ernan and His Royal Highness King Jin will go to Dengxian Tower to watch the shadow puppet show." Wu Shun whispered, but the look of longing on his face couldn't be hidden.
……
Yicuilou, now Ningxiang, Xiaoyun, Qing'er and Xiaobei don't have to greet guests alone, they only need to perform a few stage plays or sing a few new songs every day, which is much easier than before, and Xiaobei doesn't have to worry about Feng's mother letting her pick up guests.
Although Wang Xiang failed to help them redeem themselves before going to Gaochang, he left Ning Xiang with many new scripts and new songs when he left, with these new scripts and new songs, Feng's mother was much more relaxed with them, except for the daily fixed performances and singing, there was no restriction on them at other times, and they had an indescribable strange feeling in addition to gratitude to Wang Xiang, and they looked forward to Wang Xiang's return from Gaochang as soon as possible.
After singing the last new song today, Ning Xiang sat in the room to rest, holding the small book that Wang Xiang handed her when he left, on which was the script and lyrics written by him, the handwriting was not good, but Ning Xiang felt a burst of warmth.
She couldn't help but think of the conversation between Wang Xiang and Feng's mother that day.
100,000 yuan, he agreed without hesitation, Ning Xiang has never been as excited as he was at that time. Thinking of his apologetic expression after his request for redemption was rejected by Feng's mother, a faint smile appeared on Ning Xiang's face, which was a kind of apology for his friend.
When Ning Xiang was nostalgic for the past, Xiaobei and the others broke in: "Sister, let's get ready, let's go quickly, it's too late, there will be no place." ”
Qing'er patted Xiaobei's head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, even if there is no place for someone else, Dengxian Tower will not have our place, but the shopkeeper of Degui has specially left a private room for us." ”
Xiaobei stuck out his tongue, Dengxian Tower is now full every day, and there is no second restaurant with "air conditioning" in the entire Chang'an City.
Ning Xiang got up, put away the small notebook, shook her head, and smiled, "Let's go." ”
