Chapter 118: Xia Cuihua
"Now that the city is afraid that Lichun Yuan and your enemies are looking for you, from now on, you must no longer dress up, and your clothes must be as simple as possible, and you must not dress in fancy clothes. The name can no longer be used Aya. You'll have to change your name. ”
When he arrived at the door of his backyard, before he entered the house, Xia Shang had to make an appointment with this unexpected visitor for three chapters.
This first sentence was a bit harsh, because Xia Shang didn't intend to be polite to this woman from the beginning. Aya frowned, such a change was a little difficult for a woman who was used to dressing up, but at this time she had no choice, so she bowed: "Please give the name of the son." ”
"Your current identity is my sister, so you have to be surnamed Xia, and your name should not be ostentatious, nor too elegant, just call Cuihua."
"Emerald ...... Emerald ...... Xia Cuihua ......, "Aya's heart is dripping blood at the moment, is this worthy of herself?"
"How could I be so unlucky? Don't talk about nine deaths, and in the end you got such an ugly name for yourself? Xia Cuihua !!! ”
Aya was so aggrieved that she couldn't hold back her tears. Xia Shang always had prejudices against her, and he didn't have kind words, so he asked in a low voice: "What?" If you are not satisfied, you will find another home. ”
"I didn't ...... Friendship...... No, Cuihua, Cuihua is not dissatisfied, everything is up to the child. ”
"Childe? Forgot who you told you? ”
"It's up to my brother to decide."
"Come in."
Xia Shang put Aya ...... No, she brought Xia Cuihua into the yard, closed the door, and then threw the coarse cloth clothes she had just bought on the street into her arms: "Go into the house and put on your clothes, don't be seen." ”
The clothes are the most simple peasant women's clothes, there is no fancy style to speak of, just a piece of clothing, and the color is also rustic gray and blue. Fifty dollars a piece, I can't find a cheaper one in the finished clothes.
Cuihua lamented that she had no choice but to do as she was told.
At this time, today's business has ended, the Fang family brothers packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went to the backyard to tidy up, and suddenly saw Xia Shang with surprise on his face: "Shopkeeper, are you back?" ”
Xia Shang nodded: "Just arrived, how is the business in the past two days?" You didn't smash the signboard, did you? ”
Fang Xiang patted his chest triumphantly: "Don't worry, the shopkeeper's business has been on fire for the past two days!" My craftsmanship is no worse than that of the shopkeeper now, and I have seventeen taels of silver in two days. ”
Fang was silent and pouted: "Why don't you say that my knife work is good?" Do you have anything to do with this? It is clear that the shopkeeper's plate has played a role. ”
"Hey! You ......"
Fang Buyu smiled and walked up to Xia Shang: "Shopkeeper, you don't know in the past two days, since we switched to large plates of dishes, many guests have eaten gently, and later I heard a literati who ate that this is elegant." Ho Ho ...... It's an elegant meal! ”
Xia Shang gave this guy a slap: "What nonsense? Why isn't our food elegant? Laugh at your own dishes, you can still laugh, let's just make cheap but elegant dishes! Do you understand? ”
"Oh." Fang Buyu shrank his neck, turned around and found that his eldest brother was snickering, very annoyed, and walked to the stone mill to fetch water angrily.
The two were about to wash the dishes, when the door of Xia Shang's house opened, and Cuihua changed into simple peasant clothes and walked out: "Gong...... Brother, you see? ”
Although the clothes were changed, the innate soft voice could not be changed, and when it came to the ears of the Fang family brothers, the two of them suddenly gave a stir.
I forgot to wash the dishes, and I went to follow the prestige with doubts.
What the two brothers saw was not coarse linen, but the bumpy figure under the coarse linen and the delicate facial features. They have seen a lot of beauties, and there are many of them, but those beauties are all looking up to them, but the one in front of them, who is wearing coarse linen clothes, has a cordiality to the two brothers, at least there will be no other sense of identity.
Xia Shang didn't notice the eyes of the two brothers, looked at Cuihua and nodded: "It's okay, now go and wash the dishes." ”
"Wash the dishes?" Cuihua was puzzled and saw the dinner plates piled up on one side, stacked on top of each other, and there were more than a hundred or so of them.
"How long does this have to be washed?"
You are not allowed to dress up, you are not allowed to wear beautiful clothes, even your name has been changed to a dirt bun, and now you have to wash so many dishes! Life is so unpredictable......
But after thinking about it, although it is bitter now, it is better than being sold to the countryside as a prostitute. Although it is also sold in Lichunyuan, the two cannot be compared, and the prostitutes in the countryside live like slaves, which cannot be described or imagined.
Cuihua didn't think much about it and walked over silently.
Seeing that Cuihua was getting closer and closer to the two brothers, the two guys could see that their eyes were straight, and the closer they walked, the clearer they could see, the more they realized that Cuihua was good-looking.
Cuihua was in a bad mood and didn't want to know who these two men were, so she walked to her side and whispered, "Let Jean." ”
The Fang family brothers were a little stunned, retreated again and again, retreated to Xia Shang's side and asked in a low voice, "Shopkeeper, this is?" ”
"My sister went to the countryside."
"Sister? The shopkeeper's own sister? ”
"Yes. Xia Cuihua. ”
"Xia Cuihua, Xia Cuihua." The two brothers muttered in a similar way, "This name is good, it sounds kind." ”
In front of her, her face was flushed, and she hate the two brothers to death by shrinking her neck, thinking that they were making fun of herself.
After seeing Cuihua, the two brothers chattered a little, Fang Buyu came back to his senses first, and patted his head: "Oops! Since she is the shopkeeper's own sister, she is the eldest lady, so where can she do this kind of rough work? We have to do all this work, right? Miss Cuihua, you are resting, I'll wash, my name is Fang Buyu, it's your brother's buddy, what's going on in the future. ”
"And me! My name is Fang Xiang and said, this kid's eldest brother, if the eldest lady has something to do in the future, she will definitely handle it for you. ”
"Hey!" Xia Shang let out a low roar, "What are you doing?" Did I say let you help? Although she is my sister, she is not here to eat white food, she has to work every day, starting with washing dishes. Don't make a fool of yourself, if you really want to help, drag some bricks and build a new room next to my room. ”
"Yes! Where the eldest lady doesn't live yet! Fang Buyu looked sad, "There can be a room in the courtyard, but it will take at least four or five days to get better." Where does the eldest lady live these days? ”
At this time, Fang wanted to say that he didn't know which tendon was wrong, and blurted out: "Live with my brother, we have two rooms, I live with my brother in one, and the eldest lady lives in one." ”
Fang Buyu turned around and kicked the eldest brother, and scolded in a low voice: "You haven't seen a woman?!" Shame no? The shopkeeper may stuff my sister to us? ”
Of course, this proposal is not possible, but Xia Shang is worried that it is not what the two of them will do to Cuihua, but that Cuihua will harm the two brothers.
"Well, let's go outside and find a place to stay."
As soon as the words fell, Cuihua dropped the goods in her hand, twisted to Xia Shang's side in fear, and pulled the corner of Xia Shang's clothes: "Brother, I won't go out, I'm afraid." ”
"Brother, I won't go out, I'm afraid...... Hey, this sound is deadly! The two brothers couldn't stand it anymore, their eyes were full of peach blossoms, and they only had to find a weak lady from the countryside.
