Chapter 90: Dating
Lin Xiaoshu cleaned up the stall and went to Qingxu Yashe with Han Jian. At this time, it was still early, and it was very deserted in the Qingxu House.
Han Jian asked all the shopkeepers and men in the Qingxu Elegant House to gather and decide, and these people were still a little noisy and discussing. Han Jian temporarily decided to let Lin Xiaoshu come over to be the big shopkeeper of Qingxu Yashe, and he had not revealed the news before.
At this time, Lin Xiaoshu was just an ordinary peasant girl in plain clothes, even if she had experience in running a tea stall, but the tea stall was not a big restaurant after all. Lin Xiaoshu's tea stall doesn't even have a guy after all, and he produces and sells his own business, and he doesn't need to fake outsiders. Although the guys didn't dare to raise any criticism in front of Han Jian, they still talked about it in private, thinking that Han Jian was obviously trying to "fake the public and help the private interest".
Han Jian talked to the previous shopkeepers and stewards and asked them what they meant, originally Han Jian wanted to transfer them, so as not to make them feel demoted. But these shopkeepers and stewards have been in Dongwangfu for many years, and they know how to "understand" Han Jian, and they all said that they want to stay for Lin Xiaoshu.
Looking at the attitudes of these people, Han Jian thought to himself, they wouldn't want to stay and watch Lin Xiaoshu's jokes, right?
After explaining the matter, Lin Xiaoshu didn't need any preparations, and her position as the big shopkeeper took office directly. Because Han Jian was going to Cuiyang Building to go to Gu Xin'er's appointment, he was also in a hurry to leave, and Lin Xiaoshu personally sent him out.
"Miss Lin, there are a lot of people in the entire Qingxu Yashe, and the division of labor is also very clear. Maybe you can smell some signs of hostility just now, they don't help you wholeheartedly, more often than not, it's up to you. Han Jian instructed before leaving.
"Hmm." Lin Xiaoshu was a little absent-minded when she responded, and Han Jian guessed that she was thinking about how to suppress those old guys.
Han Jian didn't say much, smiled and left with the guards, leaving the huge Qingxu Yashe to Lin Xiaoshu to manage, Han Jian also wanted to see Lin Xiaoshu's ability. Whether she, the airborne shopkeeper, can afford a shop mainly depends on her ability, if she is weak, she will be bullied, and if she is tough, she will cause hostility.
Han Jian also has a lot of expectations for Lin Xiaoshu's appointment.
Han Jian walked to the door of Cuiyang Building, Zhang Xing was already waiting there, Zhang Xing was holding a stack of comic books in his hand, which was a gift that Han Jian promised to give to Gu Xin'er and Jing'er. As soon as Han Jian took it, a carriage stopped not far away, and the groom took down the stool, and then two women got down from the carriage, it was Gu Xin'er and Jing'er.
"Say hello to Childe." Gu Xin'er stepped forward and gave a salute.
The mirror looked like a learner, but her eyes were staring at the comic strip in Han Jian's hand and she didn't move away.
"Please come in." Han Jian is the proprietor, and he will do the work of entertaining guests. Cuiyang Building itself is not open to the public, and ordinary people will not be allowed to enter without Han Jian's guidance.
Han Jian took Gu Xin'er and Jing'er upstairs and introduced: "This is the little girl I talked about before, and it was the song she sang that day." ”
"I know." Jing'er hurriedly said, "I was there that day." Originally, my sister came, but my sister wanted to accompany my mother, so she called me here. ”
Gu Xin'er glanced at Bai Jing'er and said, "Don't be unruly." ”
"Oh." Jing'er stuck out her tongue and hid behind Gu Xin'er.
Han Jian said with a smile: "There is usually no one here, if Xin'er wants to meet friends or have any activities, just come over." ”
Han Jian didn't mean to say it, but he didn't expect Gu Xin'er to listen to it, her expression changed slightly, and she wanted to say something, but she didn't say it. This slight change in love did not escape Han Jian's eyes.
"Xin'er, what's wrong?" Han Jian asked.
"Hmm." Gu Xin'er bowed slightly, looking a little ashamed, "Originally, Jing'er and I were going to preach to some senior brothers and sisters in the same door in the afternoon, but there happened to be no place to ......."
Han Jian understood that this was to borrow the venue.
Preaching is basically a discussion of those Taoist teachings, and it was also very popular in the Wei Dynasty, which emphasized Taoism and suppressed Buddhism.
If it is simply a "senior sister" who preaches with Gu Xin'er, Han Jian is also willing to lend the venue, but the key is that there is a "senior brother" among them. Although the Shangqing Palace is dominated by female disciples in the prosperity of yin and yang, there are also male disciples among them, but these male disciples will not live in the Shangqing Palace for a long time. Han Jian heard that his father met his mother and the empress who was the eldest princess when he was "short-term repairing" in the Shangqing Palace.
"Then come here, it's so crowded." Han Jian smiled and said, "Although I don't cultivate the Tao, I yearn for the Taoist scriptures, and listening to your lectures on the Tao and increase my knowledge is really a great joy in life." I just hope you don't refuse me as a layman to observe. ”
"How so?" Jing'er heard that there was such a good venue to lecture together, and said with joy, "You like to listen to lectures, I'll tell you, I was better than my sister when I took the scriptures......
was glared at by Gu Xin'er, and Jing'er retracted the look on her face again.
Gu Xin'er smiled at Han Jian with gratitude: "Thank you, son, then go back and let people inform those fellow brothers and sisters." I believe they will also welcome Childe to discuss the scriptures together. ”
went upstairs and entered the room, Gu Xin'er was still a little cramped. After all, men and women are in the same room, although she is not alone, but she also knows that sometimes she needs to avoid suspicion. Jing'er, on the other hand, didn't have so many worries, and after a while, she had already spoken to Wen'er, who was about the same age, and she was very familiar with it.
"Wen'er, sing a tune." Han Jian reminded Wen'er, who was talking to Jing'er, "Sing well, there is a reward." If you don't sing well, I'll go back and punish you. ”
Wen'er smiled, Han Jian said that he punished her, but he never really punished her. She was punished by the princesses of those counties.
Originally, Wen'er was also afraid of life, but when she saw her sister, who was only two or three years older than her, she was not so restrained.
Knowing that Wen'er was going to sing "Outside the Long Pavilion" that day, Jing'er no longer spoke, but sat at the table and looked at Wen'er with Gu Xin'er. Wen'er wanted to sing, but she looked at Han Jian's hand, Han Jian didn't hold a harmonica, so she didn't know how to start.
"Young Master...... You don't play the piano...... I don't know how to sing ......," Wen'er said with some grievances.
Han Jian didn't want to be ugly in front of Gu Xin'er, but at this time, in order to let Wen'er get back to her state, he had to take out the piano.
As his harmonica blew, Wen'er's expression finally regained her confidence. Then Wen'er's melodious voice sounded, and with the accompaniment of harmonica sounds, Wen'er repeated the beautiful singing of the day.
After the song, not only Jing'er was fascinated by it, but even Gu Xin'er was shocked. She always thought that although the song was good, Jing'er was exaggerating, but after listening to the original song today, she realized that Jing'er was not exaggerating at all.
After Wen'er finished singing, Han Jian put down the harmonica, smiled and asked Gu Xin'er, who was a little stunned next to him, "What does Xin'er think of this song?" ”
Gu Xin'er sighed slightly: "There is no music in the world comparable to the sound of heavenly immortals. Temple...... Childe, what you have in your hand is the stringless piano that has been rumored recently? ”
Han Jian looked at the harmonica in his hand and said with a smile: "You also heard?" ”
"Hmm." Gu Xin'er nodded and said, "I've heard my fellow senior sister mention it before, and now there are many people in Luoyang looking for its owner, but I didn't expect to be lucky enough to see it today." ”
Han Jian saw that Gu Xin'er liked the harmonica so much, and he wanted to give the harmonica to her directly. But thinking about it, he has a total of two harmonicas, one was given to Yang Li'er, and now the rest is given to Gu Xin'er, so what will he use in the future? To make a harmonica, it takes a lot of work for him to prepare raw materials to make zuò to tuning, and this one can only be sent back to Jiangdu to make the next one.
Han Jian thought that giving the same gift to the two girls was obviously insincere.
"If Xin'er likes it, I'll go back and teach you how to play." Han Jian said with a smile.
"Hmm." Regarding Han Jian's promise, Gu Xin'er didn't feel inappropriate, but nodded with a smile on her face.
"Let's not talk about the stringless piano." Han Jian changed the topic and said, "There are also the first nine episodes of the Three Kingdoms comic strip, as well as the original engraving of the tenth episode, which is a good thing that you can't find in Luoyang City." ”
