Chapter 12: Shao Qing's Knife (I)

"Meituan, you're so amazing!" Yao Huan stared at the chicken feet handed over by Meituan.

Her master and servant were sitting in the ventilation of the courtyard, each with a knife, deboning the cold chicken feet.

Meituan gave Yao Huan the sharp knife that Shen Fuzhi usually used to chop pork kidneys and fish fillets, and he operated a square knife for chopping pork bones, with the upper end of the blade upturned, and with only the sharp corners at the bottom of the blade, he carefully cut the skin of the palm of the chicken feet and dug out the big bones.

Rao is tool is so unlucky, Meituan's speed of picking out the big bones of chicken feet is also much faster than Yao Huan.

After Yao Huan's praise, Meituan was not too humble: "Sister Huan'er looks at my technique, is it like a carver?" However, it is still not comparable with the Chen carpenter's family from Putian in the alley. Chen's carpenter's family specially carved the piano case, and it is said that Cai Shangshu sent people to buy the carved piano case. ”

"Cai Shangshu? Cai Jingna? Yao Huan asked casually.

Meituan responded.

In Yao Huan's mind, he used a simple knowledge reserve to calculate that when Jingkang was ashamed thirty years later, Cai Jing, one of the six thieves in Bianjing, was almost eighty years old, so the current Cai Jing was not yet fifty years old, and it was the year of being beaten in the officialdom. Meituan called him Cai Shangshu, and he should have been attached to the Prime Minister of the New Party, Zhang Dun, and became the head of the household.

Meituan said: "After doing Cai Shangshu's business, Carpenter Chen's speech in the alley has been much higher, and Erniang hates his family more and more." Hey, Sister Huan, don't tell Erniang that I and Carpenter Chen's youngest daughter secretly learned carving. ”

Yao Huan said calmly: "We are all business people, and it is common sense to take over the business of the noble family, talk and talk everywhere, and increase the prestige of our own signboards. ”

Meituan looked up at Yao Huan: "My second mother is not stingy, and she is jealous of the neighborhood. Erniang felt that Cai Shangshu would harm the second aunt...... Hey, let's not talk about it, I'm a subordinate, how can I be qualified to say this. ”

Yao Huan keenly smelled the smell of information feeding, and hurriedly coaxed Meituan: "Say, I really can't remember some of the past, how can I tell my uncle and aunt about it." ”

When Meituan heard this, the little master said it was very reasonable, so he put down the bright machete, and was about to come to a big gossip when he knocked on the door.

Meituan opened the door and saw that it was a good-looking man in a green shirt who had never seen him.

Shao Qing made a gesture and showed his identity in three or two sentences.

"It turned out to be the life-saving benefactor that Erniang said, Mr. Come in and talk!" Meituan glanced at the medicine box in Shao Qing's hand, and suddenly became warm.

But when she welcomed Shao Qing, she opened the courtyard door wider, and didn't forget to take care of the curiosity of the neighbors around her: "Lang Zhongli, who is sick for my sister Huan." ”

Shao Qing walked into the courtyard and met Yao Huan's gaze firmly.

In order to try the taste, Yao Huan was dipping a chicken foot with big bones in soybean sauce seasoning and gnawing happily.

At first glance, Shao Qing hurriedly put down his hand holding half of the chicken foot from his mouth, but he had already bitten half of it in his mouth, and he didn't know whether to spit it out or continue to eat for a while.

Shao Qing was slightly stunned when he saw Yao Huan's situation.

This little lady, compared with the past, can't say where there has been a big change. It's not because half of the face has not yet been swollen, but between the eyebrows and eyes, there is something less in the expression, and there is something more.

The time when he pulled her by the Bianhe River and stopped the bleeding for her injuries was certainly not the first time he saw her.

Xianglan (i.e., Xiangguo Temple), Hongqiao, and the intersection of the alley where Yao's house is located...... On the way to the ox cart, he counted the limited number of times he had seen her, recalling the desolate look on her face that loomed every time.

She had such a big incident and almost died, in addition to being distressed and worried, he was also a little grateful to God.

He was finally able to appear in front of her in a reasonable way and let her know of his existence.

However, at this moment, Yao Huan in front of him suddenly made Shao Qing have a strange feeling of finding the wrong person.

This strange surprise made Shao Qing's mind feel dumbfounded, and he blurted out: "Oh, you eat, keep eating." ”

Yao Huan became more and more embarrassed, she turned over slightly, chewed quickly for a while, covered her mouth and spit out the finely broken chicken bones, got up and threw them into the dustpan, Fang hung her head again, and saluted Shao Qing.

Shao Qing woke up slightly, thinking about the ups and downs of her heart, what is the innocent of this Yao family in front of her, what does she know.

Shao Qing then put aside his differences and even losses, and looked at Yao Huan's forehead and sideburns with the doctor's scrutinizing eyes, and glanced at her fingers again, and said happily: "Today is also a coincidence, passing by in the next visit, I heard the tea customers talking about Yao Niangzi's righteous deeds in the tea shop, and I knew that the lady and my aunt actually lived in the alley, so I came to see the lady's injury." The skin trauma has not subsided and the swelling is not a big problem, but the lady's hands and feet can move as flexibly as before? ”

If in the modern society of the previous life, Yao Huan would definitely be teasing: "I can sit and gnaw chicken feet, stand up and spit out bones, how flexible can I be?" ”

But she quickly held back the funny habit in her temperament, lowered her eyebrows and said slowly: "I didn't faint when I went to the ground yesterday, and it was okay to walk and pick up things." ”

Shao Qing nodded, took out a porcelain bottle stuffed with light purple silk cloth from the medicine box, and placed it on the stone table.

"This is alum, musk, safflower of Northern Liao, plus the wound medicine pounded by spring wine, the lady is applied to the forehead, put on a silk towel, change the dressing every morning and evening, insist on ten years, the bruises are scattered, and there should be no scars on the face."

After Yao Huan finished thanking him, he was worried about what to talk about, Meituan brought a drinking utensil from the stove and came to relieve the siege in time: "Mr. drink a bowl of apricot peel water secretly made by my family's Erniang." The weather is hot, and my family has not prepared sencha. By the way, I still don't know your surname? ”

Shao Qingdao: "Don't have your surname Shao, a single clear character." ”

He took a sip of apricot peel water, but he felt sour, cool and slightly sweet, and when he slid down his throat, he was refreshed and moisturized, without the bitter taste of common apricot peel water on the market, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "How to brew the apricot peel water in your house?" ”

Meituan said: "Mr. also thinks it is delicious? My second mother is willing to put things away, not only to cook them with dried apricots from Hexi, but also to put a few dollars of jujube paste, which is more astringent than rock sugar. ”

Shao Qing listened interestingly, and opened the conversation for advice, and it was natural to chat for a while, and when he saw Meituan sit down and continue to tinker with the chicken feet in the basin, he asked what it was for.

Meituan knows how to be measured, he is a subordinate in the end, how can he answer the phone so much, so he will look at Yao Huan with his eyes.

Yao Huan had already adjusted to the attitude of gratitude to this white-clothed angel of the Great Song Dynasty who looked refreshing and was very responsible, and he couldn't talk awkwardly just because he couldn't find the theme. ”

"Oh......" Shao Qing listened, remembering that Yao Huan was at a loss to spit out fine bones, and couldn't help but purse his lips and smile.

Yao Huan was stunned for a moment when he saw Shao Langzhong's appearance.

Where had she seen him? It's like a world away from home.

Dr. Siu! Dr. Siu was very satisfied after watching the film of her first chemotherapy treatment, but he couldn't laugh like that.

Yao Huan's shoulders shook, and he felt that the hairs on his back stood up.

He, he wouldn't be crossing over too, would he?

No, it's not like it, it's just a smile, it doesn't look like it at all. When Yao Huan saw Shao Qing smile, the process of the dimples on his cheeks receding, and finally reacted, no wonder he was familiar, more like a young version of Zhao Wenxuan.

"Mr. Shao, do you know Zhao Wenxuan?" Yao Huan asked with a dark thief's mischievousness.

Shao Qing was stunned: "Who?" ”

Yao Huan said nonsense: "A Lang Jun who looks like Mr. is just a generation older, I don't know if he is related to Mr.?" ”

When Shao Qing heard this, his heart sank, and he thought of someone.

Could it be ......
