Chapter Twenty-Five: There Was a Girl Named Wan'er
Wu Qing didn't know that it was only on Zhuque Street that was the only way to do it in Chang'an Chengcheng, and officials above the third grade, including the emperor's relatives and relatives, could open the door to Fangwai Street.
Therefore, in a sense, Suzaku Street is a commercial gathering place second only to the East and West Markets, and in the words of later generations, it is a very, very wide commercial street.
Wu Qing walked all the way south along the Wannian County side of Zhuque Street, looking at the Tang girls who were staring at the railing on the platform of the brothel of the Qinglou, Wu Qing could only sigh helplessly, and had to walk downstairs in obscurity. Wu Qing walked into the teahouse, and Dr. Tea didn't pay attention to Wu Qing's little kid, thinking that someone was a naughty boy who came to play.
Wu Qing was furious, does this Nima look at Lao Tzu as small? slapped the table and said loudly and angrily: "Is this a teahouse!" ”
Most of the people who drank tea were Sven people, so they were attracted by the posture of Wu Qing's little kid.
Dr. Tea immediately stepped forward and saw that this little kid was wearing a cloth coat and pretending to be an uncle, but he still greeted him with a smile and apologized: "I have neglected the little guest officer, what do you want to drink?" ”
"Whatever!" Wu Qing said very slightly.
Dr. Tea was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Ah, little guest officer, we don't have 'casual' tea here!" ”
Wu Qing scolded secretly in his heart, the previous stinky problem was committed again, so he thought about it, or thought about it, but he couldn't remember what tea he had drunk, and suddenly remembered that there was a report that a pound of big red robes was sold for hundreds of thousands. So he blurted out and said, "Big red robe! ”
Everyone doesn't know, Dr. Tea is also confused, thinking that he has been a tea doctor for ten years, and has read countless teas, how can he not remember the name of the tea called "Da Hong Pao".
Dr. Tea thought that he was short-sighted and insightful, so he hurriedly apologized: "Guest officer, I have never heard of this small tea you want, and I really can't take it out." ”
Wu Qing was stunned in his heart, isn't there a big red robe now? But it's a world-famous tea, how could it not be, it seems that the tea must not have been discovered. So he pretended to be B and said in a long and immature voice: "Master, I only drink the big red robe, since I don't have it, then the master will leave." ”
Wu Qing slipped out of the teahouse in full view of everyone, and when he arrived on the street, he was already covered with cold sweat, which was too embarrassing!
At this time, he has arrived at the Daxingshan Temple in Jinshanfang, only to see the crowd in front of the Daxingshan Temple, Wu Qing thought of his rock sugar gourd, if he is carrying the rock sugar gourd to sell now, just this flow of people, not to mention making money every day, it is still possible to earn one or two thousand Kaiyuan Tongbao. Not to mention popsicles and shaved ice. It's just that now with Li Ji, the business has been delayed. How good is that?
With a devout heart of worship for the Buddha, Wuqing took a detour, but he didn't expect that Daxingshan Temple would occupy the entire Jinshanfang. In desperation, Wu Qing had no choice but to turn around and walk back along the Qingming Canal, after all, there are so many squares and miles in Chang'an, it is easy to get lost.
But I still got lost, walked back and forth for a long time, and still returned to the willow tree in the Qingming Canal.
At this time, the sky is getting dark, the lanterns are hanging high, the lanterns are placed in front of each house, the Bon puja of Daxingshan Temple begins, the chanting of the monks comes out from afar, the talented and beautiful women, the red men and green women begin to put river lanterns on the embankment. Wu Qing raised his eyes and saw countless river lanterns floating from the upper reaches of the Qingming Canal, as if the sky was full of stars falling into the world, and the Qingming River became the Milky Way.
At this time, a little girl ran past Wu Qing so fast that she almost knocked down the skinny Wu Qing. The little girl obviously didn't realize that she actually hit someone, so she immediately stopped, bowed and said, "It's all the slave's fault that I bumped into my brother." ”
"Huh?" It's actually a pretty Lori! Wu Qing borrowed the light to see that this was actually a fucking little beauty, such a delicate and delicate little girl, Wu Qingzhen saw it for the first time, she was not like many other little girls in the Tang Dynasty with pigtails, but with her hair scattered, a bow tied at the back of her head, the bangs in front of her forehead were cut very neatly, a pair of bright eyes were shining, her small mouth was slightly pursed, and she bit her lip from time to time, cramped and uneasy.
Mother, whose cute girl is this?
Wu Qing was furious, is there such a girl in the world? Is this asking me to sin?
Wu Qing coughed lightly and said, "Sister, oh, no, little sister doesn't have to be polite, it's good to bump into it." Can you get acquainted? Brother, my name is Wu Qing. ”
The little girl frowned slightly, not knowing whether to say it or not, she looked around, showing a look of disappointment, so she whispered: "The slave's name is Xiaowan." Thank you brother for your forgiveness. If it's okay, the slave family will go and put the lights on. ”
Wu Qing saw that the river lantern in the little girl's hand had been knocked out of shape, so how did the opportunity come? Wu Qing didn't say a word, approached the little girl, and said, "Sister, your river lamp was broken, I'll help you get it." ”
Xiao Wan looked down and saw that the river lantern had really been broken, and she cried out in surprise, "Ah, it's really broken." ”
Wu Qing took the river lantern, and then looked at it, this thing is still a little different from the later generations, it seems to be a little more difficult to make zuò, but for the science and engineering man with strong hands-on ability, this problem can only be regarded as a small meaning. Soon, Wu Qing took it apart, put it on and put it up, and handed it to the girl.
Looking at Wu Qing's skillful technique, Xiao Wan thought that Wu Qing was making river lanterns, after all, the cloth on Wu Qing's body could also see that Wu Qing was just a fart person.
"Ah, brother, that's amazing."
Wu Qing hummed in his heart, you don't know what your brother and I are so good about.
Narrowing the distance, Wu Qing and Xiao Wan walked to the river together very smoothly, lit the candle, put it in the river lantern, and then made a wish.
Looking at Xiao Wan who made a wish with his eyes closed, he couldn't help but think of her, there was a moment when he was also full of happiness and looking forward to the future, full of hope for life.
When Xiao Wan opened her eyes, she saw that the boy was staring at herself, but he seemed to be flying out of the sky, and couldn't help but feel a little strange, and asked, "Brother Wuqing, have you made a wish?" ”
"Yes!"
"What did you promise?"
"Let you be my daughter-in-law." Wu Qing secretly scolded himself, shameless.
Xiao Wan didn't seem to be very disgusted, her eyebrows were lowered, and she was shy, but she didn't speak.
Wu Qing asked, "What did you promise?" ”
"Don't sue you!" Xiao Wan got up, turned around, saw a woman's figure, and shouted, "Mother, Wan'er is here." Immediately after that, Xiao Wan ran towards the woman like an elf, turned around, and gave Wu Qing a sweet smile in the dark night.
Wu Qing's heart was shocked, maybe at such a moment, he suddenly had a kind of enlightenment, once had and then lost.
"It turns out that a woman's heart has been so elusive since she was a child."
Wu Qing stood stunned for a long time, muttering to himself, and he was sad.
