Chapter 16: Parallel Lives 4
Lichun and the two of them looked at each store one by one and didn't buy anything, after all, the things in the dream were bought and useless and couldn't bring back reality, speaking of which Lichun was a little depressed, he had taken photos in his dreams, and he also saw good things in his dreams, and felt that these were worth remembering. It's a pity that when I wake up from a dream, I look at the digital camera and there is nothing in my pocket.
Xiao Chen didn't come at night, so Tuo Xiaoer brought a message saying that there was something in the shop, so he didn't come. "Cut, I knew he wouldn't come, I wanted to see how embarrassed he was."
"Okay, it's dull to do more of this kind of thing, and there is not much time in dreams, after all, time flows much faster than reality. Think about what you're going to do tomorrow. ”
Lichun also felt that since he had the female body that was still used for this dream memory, he had some small-bellied chicken intestines.
"Let's go to Yaohe tomorrow to take a boat, and I want to taste the river fish."
The night passed quickly, and the time in the dream was illogical, sometimes the night was long, sometimes the day was long. And Lichun felt that the time in the dream was not 24 hours at all, listening to Xiao Heng's explanation, this dream was a fragment of his derivative memory after all, so what he was experiencing now was the time in his fragment. Sometimes if he remembers that day was full of hardships and hardships, then the day must be long, and on the contrary, it is the night.
The next day, I finished breakfast and went to the river. There are two kinds of boat rentals, one is a small boat, there is only one boatman, and there is a small number of boatmen in the cabin for guests to eat refreshments or talk about flag arts, and the space is very small. There is also a larger type of boat, which can accommodate more than a dozen people in the cabin. It is usually accompanied by a cook, a maid and a geisha. This kind of boat charter is more common, and it is used by some face-faced characters.
Lichun and the two discussed renting to accommodate more people, after all, it was useless to save the money in the dream.
When I was about to pay, two sons who looked ordinary, but were very good inside, one was taciturn and the other was lively and jumpy. Walk to the charter office and "Man, rent a good boat." "The lively one.
"Two sons, the good ships have been leased, why don't you come back in the afternoon?"
The lively son looked at Lichun and them, "Alas, the two brothers, meeting is fate, or we share a boat, anyway, the boat is spacious, how about the boat fare?"
Lichun listened to it very well, the boat fare was saved, anyway, if you take a boat in reality, there is nothing wrong with a bunch of people taking one. "Okay, then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate."
Xiao Heng and the taciturn son were completely ignored, so they had to helplessly watch the two of them get on the boat.
There is a table of eight immortals in the ship, and there are two soft collapses next to it where a small table is placed. The maid led Lichun and them to the soft collapse and asked what they needed. The lively man is now known as Song Qingshu, and the taciturn man is called Wei Zizhen, and the two people from the capital came here to play. After setting up some dim sum, Lichun ordered the special steamed fish, grilled fish and fish fillet river fresh pot here.
"Brother Qingshu, Lao Xiao and I are going to the capital in a few days to have a look, can you introduce the special attractions and food in the capital?"
"The two of you are going to the capital, so it just so happens that I have to go back in two days, how about we go on the road together."
"Okay, man, that's great." Lichun happily wanted to pat Song Qingshu on the shoulder, well, cough. At this time, Xiao Heng coughed dryly. Lichun looked at Xiao Heng unconsciously.
Xiao Heng had no choice but to give up, it seemed that Lichun was not conscious of himself or a woman's body. Although the soul is a man and wears a man's clothes, a discerning person is still a woman at first glance.
And that Wei Zizhen looked at Lichun, suddenly his pupils contracted, and he silently pulled Song Qingshu over.
Sitting on the boat and watching the scenery on both sides of the river, it is the end of spring. The weeping willows on both sides of the river caress lightly, and the river water is clear and rippling, matching the guqin sound of the geisha inside the boat. It's rare to feel that my soul has been sublimated.
Listening to the sound of the piano and eating the fish feast, time flies. Night crept in. Lichun was a little drunk, although the plum wine on the ship was not high. But I can't control Lichun from drinking wine as a drink.
"Brother Qingshu, Brother Zizhen farewell. On the seventeenth, the gates of our state capital were not scattered. Xiao Heng said goodbye to Qingshu and pulled Lichun back to the inn. Lichun also waved his hand stupidly and shouted, "Brother Qingshu, don't forget the time." 17th"
Xiao Heng was extremely helpless and pulled Lichun back to the wing. gave Lichun a chestnut on his head, "Lichun, have you forgotten what your identity is now?" I didn't react to any hints I made on the boat. ”
"What? Identity? Isn't it in a dream now? ”
"You are now my wife, a woman. Look at your left Qingshu brother and your right Qingshu brother, I can't wait to pick it up on others. ”
"Oh, yes, if you don't say it, I forgot that I was a woman. They can't see it anyway. ”
"You're as stupid as you are? The identities of Song Qingshu and Wei Zizhen are not simple, Song Qingshu may not be able to see it. But that Wei Zizhen can see through you at a casual glance. ”
"If you can see it, you can see it, anyway, just keep a little distance from them next time. Besides, it's a big deal, just ignore them in the future. I woke up from a dream, and I didn't know who it was. Lichun suddenly felt a little melancholy.
"Lao Xiao, what do you say if you are addicted to dreams and have feelings?"
"Hiss~ Who do you have a crush on? It's only been a few days, huh? Xiao Heng's mentality was a little unstable, and he almost wanted Lichun to wake up.
"What are you anxious about, I didn't say who I have a crush on, I just said what if I indulge in a dream. How beautiful things are in my dreams, having you with the sea, sky and bottom of the sea carefree, makes me want to escape from reality. When you see the dream is over, I won't see you. ”
"You see your life, in this dream you just took a boat, ate a fish feast, met a brother and that's it, if you are mentally strong, can you call the wind and rain in the dream, then pay it back?
Lichun also knew that he was a little more real, but after all, the gap between reality and dreams was too big. He realistically wants to have such a life. Thinking about it, I slowly fell asleep.
Xiao Heng sighed, feeling that even if Lichun's father came and Lichun was a teacher, and now he was a brother, and he would have to be a part-time lover at that time, which was also very tiring.
The appointed day of the city gate will soon come. Lichun is still dressed as a man, and Song Qingshu and the others are not exposed.
After Song Qingshu and the others returned to their private house that day, Wei Zizhen said to Song Qingshu, "Xiao Shizi, you haven't given news over there after escaping for so long, and now you have become the fifth wonder in the capital." And that Lichun, it's not your brother, he's a woman. ”
"What, what do you say is a woman? Her words and deeds are no different from ours, and she looks like a woman. ”
"He may be used to pretending to be like a martial lady in Wuhou on weekdays, but I look at her with pierced ears."
"And that Brother Xiao is considerate to her in every way, and she looks like a husband and wife." Wei Zizhen leaned against the window with his arms crossed, and squinted at Song Qingshu with a little helplessness.
"Alas, it's rare to meet a confidant, and it's a woman. It's a strange woman. A fight with the martial arts. ”
So on the way, Song Qingshu restrained his frivolity, and was still heroic towards Xiao Heng, but he was entangled with Shang Lichun and even stopped talking.
"Alas, Brother Qingshu, if you have anything, just say it, do you know that I am a woman?" Lichun looked at Song Qingshu's uncomfortable strength, and he couldn't get up and down.
"Brother Lichun, well, I know. Please forgive me for being a little neglectful to you that day. Song Qingshu blushed, rubbing his hands with flies.
"It's nothing, we're still good brothers, don't see each other. This one wears men's clothes and forgets that he is a woman, hehehe" Lichun laughed dryly.
On the way, Song Qingshu was finally not difficult to be nervous, after all, Lichun really couldn't see that she was a woman.
Walking slowly and leisurely on the road, it was clear that the journey of a few days was dragged by four people to ten days. Before arriving at the gate of the capital, I already felt the atmosphere of the big city, and the people and merchants who entered the city had lined up in a long line, and even the official road for the officials of the Shi clan had many carriages waiting there.
"This capital is different, there are so many people." Lichun lifted the curtain and looked out.
"Compared with taking the train for the New Year in reality, taking the bus to work is still a big deal." Xiao Heng rarely choked Lichun.
Lichun didn't care, this way, Xiao Heng guarded him not to get too close to Song Qingshu and follow him like a plaster, as if he had something to do with Song Qingshu. But he also understands that after all, it is ancient times, and men and women are defensive. It's a dream, but I have to take care of it somewhat.
Lichun agreed with Song Qingshu that they would go to the inn first. Wei Zizhen will pick them up tomorrow, and then go to Song Qingshu's other village to live.
When Lichun and the two arrived at the inn, they still asked for a place in the lobby to eat. Just to hear what news has been in the capital recently.
As the saying goes, a restaurant and a brothel are the news circulation. These places are the places where people flow the most, so news also circulates the fastest. There was still someone talking at the dinner table next to him, but the hum was too loud to hear. Lichun wants to hear the news but can't hear it. Xiao Heng saw that Lichun was in such a hurry, so he called Xiao Er, and Xiao Er came running. "What do you command?"
Xiao Heng threw a broken silver on the table and said, "If there is any news to say, the silver will belong to you." ”
"Guest officer, you can be divided into several waits when you hear the news, just ask me for ordinary news, if you want to wait for the news to go to the top floor of the Tianzi room, etc., there will be a special person to inform, but the silver two will be given according to the value of the news. If what you want is secrets, then go out and turn left to the end of the public building to sell news, which is more complete than we have here. ”
"You take the silver, let's go upstairs to the Tianzi room first, it's quiet there." Xiao Heng did not hesitate and gave the result directly.
When I arrived at the Tianzi room, there was a screen inside, and the picture of the tiger descending the mountain was painted on the screen. Xiao Er motioned to go behind the screen and wait, then pulled the door and went out. Behind the screen, there are two mahogany chairs, and in the middle is a small table, which is already filled with pastries and wine. Lichun sat on one of the chairs, picked up the pastries on the table and tasted them, it is worthy of the Tianzi room in the capital, this dim sum is really delicious, and it is estimated that the dim sum in the imperial dining room is almost the same.
At this time, there were several knocks on the door, and Xiao Heng signaled to come in. When the people at the door came in, their steps were steady, and it was estimated that their kung fu was not weak. The visitor did not come in, but asked outside the screen, "What news do you want to know?" The screen's voice was clearly embellished, a little dull, as if he was wearing a mask to speak.
"I want to know the whole story of the news of the four strange things in the capital." Xiao Heng leaned back in his chair and said casually without looking up.
"I guess you two must not want to hear the news circulating in the market, do you want to hear the inside story? But you may have come to the wrong place, and the inside story is now in the public building. The two of them may have to pay a fortune to find out. ”
"Don't you also know the news of the public loss building, our province has run so far. It's no different from running over there to say it. ”
Lichun looked at Xiao Heng and felt that he was very awesome at this time, and he was very good at negotiating the tone of the boss of the rivers and lakes.
"It seems that the guest officer is an expert, the fourth odd 1-3 odd only costs 100 taels, but the fourth odd costs 10,000 taels, and it is gold. Can you get out? ”
