Chapter 142: Spring Returns to the Building
When twilight falls, the most lively place in Shimen Town is the Spring Return Building.
In front of the Chungui Building, it is not only the place where the lanterns are hung the most on the street, but also the most lively place where people come and go.
"Master, how are you doing lately? Do you miss the slave family......
The woman's delicate voice is the most beautiful scenery in the night sky, no matter who it is, I am afraid that it will not be able to hide.
"No, I'm just passing by, we've never seen ......" The man who was caught tried to explain, he was passing by unintentionally, how can he miss the woman here?
"Master, if you do this again, the slave family will punish you for not getting drunk and not returning. ”
"Girl, you really misunderstood...... the man half-pushed, but went in with the woman.
"Come on, come on, my son is having a treat today, no one is allowed to leave if you don't have fun!"
A young but already pot-bellied greasy man led a group of men with sharp beaks and monkey cheeks, and one of them hugged a girl and entered the Chungui Building.
"Chun Niang, Chun Niang!" the greasy man shouted at the crowd as he entered.
"Ouch! Zhou Gongzi is here, hurry up, Zhou Gongzi upstairs please!" The middle-aged woman who was called Chun Niang came to greet her, "Zhou Gongzi, which girl do you want to greet today?"
The pot-bellied man is Zhou Yuan, the only family in the town that still runs a private school, his father Zhou Heng, once won the fourth place in the imperial examination, and then failed to pass the palace examination, so he returned to his hometown to run a school.
Zhou Heng is the one with the highest ranking among all the talents in Shimen Town, and there is no one before, so in the city, Zhou Fu often calls himself a scholarly family.
The one who came to the spring return building today is Zhou Yuan, the eldest son of the Zhou Mansion, and the students who are studying in the private school of the Zhou Mansion.
"Today, my son wants to be alone!" Zhou Yuan took a roll call and opened his mouth to be an oiran.
"This ......" Chun Niang had embarrassment on her face, "Zhou Gongzi is unfortunate, Hua Niang's room already has guests, Zhou Gongzi, you ......"
Before Chun Niang finished speaking, Zhou Yuan stopped and shouted: "It's so bold enough! Who dares to touch the girl of this son!"
Zhou Yuan looked like no matter who it was, he was going to snatch the flower girl over tonight, and he wanted to take a group of classmates upstairs to rob people.
"Zhou Gongzi, I can't help it! I can't help it!" Chun Niang was so frightened that she quickly stopped everyone, "I can't help it, Zhou Gongzi!"
The people upstairs, Zhou Yuan must not be able to provoke.
"Here is nothing to be desired!"
"Zhou Gongzi, Hua Niang's room is, yes, yes......" Chun Niang looked embarrassed and couldn't speak.
"Yes, yes, what the hell is it!" Zhou Yuan was short-tempered, he had always had no one in his eyes, and no one dared to go against him in the entire Shimen Town!
"Yes, it's Master Zhou......"
When Zhou Yuan heard this, the momentum that was originally so tough as if he was going to overturn the Spring Return Building instantly disappeared, "Why is my father here too?"
In the flower girl's room, it is Zhou Yuan's father, the only gentleman in Zhou's private school, Zhou Heng!
"Master Zhou has been here a long time ago, and he has been staying in Hua Niang's room!" Chun Niang knew that their high-ranking scholars disdained to come to this kind of place, and Zhou Heng had always been sneaky when he came here, and he didn't let him hype it up.
But Zhou Yuan doesn't care, his reputation as a gentleman has long spread all over Shimen Town, and he can't wait for everyone in the town to know about it when he comes to Hualou.
"Okay, okay, let's find a well-behaved girl to come over!" Zhou Yuan couldn't get a girl he liked, so his attitude became perfunctory, and he was not interested.
"By the way, give us a few fruit bowls for our future adults, these poor and sour people can't even afford to eat a fruit bowl!"
He was referring to the group of sharp-beaked monkey cheeks behind him, although they were classmates, and the Zhou Mansion also took their silver, Zhou Yuan still looked down on their group.
"Fruit plate?" Chun Niang was stunned.
"Why, doesn't the girl have a fruit bowl or a fruit bowl?
Zhou Yuan felt that he had carried it to the extreme tonight, and the girl he was thinking about was called away by his father, and now he can't eat a fruit plate to dissipate his anger?
"Gongzi Zhou, you are embarrassed to be old, how can there be fruit to eat in the town at this time!"
"Chunniang, aren't you joking?" Zhou Yuan seemed to have heard some big joke, "Come on, come on, everyone, listen, such a big restaurant, why doesn't there even have a fruit plate!"
Zhou Yuan and the others had just eaten from the Wanfu Tavern, and they had eaten the fruit bowl at the Wanfu Tavern.
But it's no wonder that there is no spring return to the building, today is the first day of pre-sale watermelons in Cheng's shop, and the fruit plate of Wanfu Restaurant is still the trial melon sent by Cheng Yangyang yesterday, and today's melon is estimated to have not been delivered.
"Yes, yes, what Zhou Gongzi taught me is that it is the old man's subordinates who are not doing well, and they forgot to prepare a fruit plate for Zhou Gongzi, so the old man will ask. ”
Chun Niang said in a good voice, and she also lost a few pots of good wine to coax a few people.
She came down from the upper floors and went straight to the back kitchen, she was the biggest restaurant in town, and she didn't allow what she had in other people's stores and what she didn't!
But she asked several times and found that no one had heard of this thing, she thought about it, seemed to think of something, and left directly through the back door.
Chun Niang went straight to the Wanfu Tavern, as soon as she entered the door, she saw a plate of beautiful things on the counter, she approached and looked, sure enough, it was a plate of fruit.
"Qian Dongnan!" Chun Niang shouted towards the store.
Qian Dongnan had just brought a plate of fruit upstairs to the guest, and when he was talking to the guest about the first fruit plate in his store, he heard the familiar female voice downstairs.
They had been rivals for years, and if he couldn't hear her voice, he would have been in Shimen for nothing.
"Yo, this is not our shopkeeper of the Spring Return Building, the little lady of Spring!"
They have been competing for many years, but he still doesn't know what Chunniang's name is, not only he doesn't know, I'm afraid no one in the whole town knows.
"Qian Dongnan, where did this thing come from?" Before Qian Dongnan went downstairs, Chun Niang pointed to the fruit on the counter and asked.
"This......" Hearing her question, Qian Dongnan probably knew that someone had gone to Chunguilou to mention this thing, but she didn't have it, so she found it.
"Isn't this just an ordinary fruit bowl, what's the matter, isn't there one in the flower building of the little lady in spring?
Qian Dongnan deliberately stimulated her.
"Qian Dongnan, you don't talk nonsense, say it quickly!" Chun Niang didn't have time to talk to him.
"I'm serious, everyone in the city eats this melon and fruit now, I don't believe you can just go to the street early tomorrow to have a look. ”
Because tomorrow, the watermelons from Cheng's shop will arrive.
"You!" Chun Niang was dumbfounded by him, they usually drink and have fun in Chun Guilou, and it was the first time she paid attention to food, but even if it was food, she didn't want to be cheap.
