Chapter 36: Gift-giving
"Let him make trouble! He understands! We're all kids! Dine! Hua Er sat down in a huff and stuffed the rice.
But the cheeks are stuffed with rice, and the tip of the nose is so astringent.
Everyone saw the daylight, but what she saw was the darkness under the daylight.
For example, every year on the death day of the Luo's case, he secretly cried heartbreakingly.
Those who lift a butcher's knife tend to suffer more than those who do it.
Pity.
Everyone, don't understand.
……
Hua Er remembered that she had asked him about it.
Why do you want to change the law?
He seemed surprised that she, who only knew good food and fun, would ask such a heavy question.
However, he was still the same, smiling gently, and said lightly, there is no way, the ancestors have not tried the way out, he wants to bet on everything.
Bet? Ah Zhong said that it was not a good thing, the palace people were caught and wanted to be beaten!
She replied. With a sugar cube in his mouth, he seems to understand whether he understands or not.
He smiled and carefully asked the palace people to prepare tea, so that she could rinse her mouth after eating and save her teeth.
Flowers, do you know that the only one who can make this kind of bet is me, only me, and only me is left.
Three only, with a loud sound.
His words have been erased by time to be a little untrue.
Hua Er still remembers that at that time, although his gaze was weak and pale, it was the most brilliant flame in the world.
……
At this time, Ah Wei's voice came faintly: "Have you heard of the Wuling Society?" ”
"Wuling is the residence of the Eastern Zhou family. Led by the crown prince at that time, the young generation of the family gathered handsome people, who formed an association in Wuling, pointed out the country, and sang with oars, which must be high-spirited. ”
Hua Er answered, his eyes unconsciously drifted to the backyard, and the young man with the weak crown slammed the door.
"The Luo's case broke out, and for five years one after another, there were dozens of Wuling teenagers, and only one person was left." Ah Wei's eyes also looked at the backyard and sighed, "Second girl, don't blame him." He naturally has personal anger, but no one can easily cross this hurdle. ”
Hanaji nodded and looked at the autumn moon outside the window.
Pit?
Who can step over it?
In today's Western Zhou Kyushu Qingyan, the absurdity of the previous dynasty has long been forgotten.
And they have been left where time is.
That night, Hua Er slept very unsteadily. Too many memories came flooding back, trapping her like a cage.
She felt like she couldn't escape.
Following. In autumn, the geese fly south.
There is a girl with a red head rope carrying a bamboo basket, selling new blooming osmanthus flowers with dew drops hanging along the street.
An ordinary carriage drove into Anyuan Town. Zhao Xi wore a homely shirt, pinched the deer velvet on the placket, and sat in the car and groaned.
Douxi followed the car window, with a brand-new silk webbed head on his head, and Xiao Huangmen still honored him yesterday.
Hearing that he was personally transferred to serve by the East Palace, the people below were red with envy.
Everyone knows that the East Palace pays a lot of attention, and the palace people who serve him are scolded every three days, let alone transfer people in person.
Douxi doesn't care, who is serving is not serving, if it is not for the silk webbing to keep warm, he still doesn't want to wear it to show off.
At this time, Zhao Xixing's voice floated out at the right time: "Do you know why you were transferred?" ”
"Your Highness...... Oh no, the child's mind, the slave doesn't dare to speculate. "Beans are happy.
"Because you ......," Zhao Xixing smiled, "without any talent, and without any fault." ”
In other words, extremely ordinary people.
Zhao Xixing didn't say this, but Douxi thought so.
He's too ordinary.
The people who can serve in the East Palace, who are not a little bit of a family, or a skill, or even have a clever mind, a smart mind, and a lovely appearance.
And he, serving people is not thorough, his tongue is not skillful, his brain is not bright, his family background is innocent, and his face is a character who cannot be found in the pile.
Everyone doesn't understand, how could such a person be elected to the East Palace three years ago, if the only thing that is outstanding is that he doesn't talk much and doesn't chew the root of the wall.
Now that he has been transferred to the East Palace, many people know for the first time that this face that is not unfamiliar is called "Douxi".
The wheels creaked, rolling on the stone roads of Anyuan Town, and the shouts of vendors along the street pierced through the curtains.
"Begonias, sweet and sour begonia fruits...... The little brother was happy after eating, and the little daughter-in-law was laughing and blooming......"
A shopkeeper propped up a whole straw target, which was filled with begonia fruit bunches, and each fruit was also poured with a layer of golden starch sugar, and the fragrance attracted children from all over the neighborhood to surround three layers thick.
Squeak. The carriage stopped.
Zhao Xixing's low groan: "The little daughter-in-law has eaten...... Laughing blossoms? ”
"Temple...... Oh no, if Childe likes it, please be patient, the slave immediately buys a bunch of it, and asks Childe to try it. Douxi understood, took out the copper plate, and immediately bought a bunch.
The begonia fruit was passed into the curtain. The elegant chewing sound was mixed with a faint doubt: "Begonia fruit? ”
Dou Xi smiled: "Your ...... Oh, Childe, it's a folk snack food. Although it is fashionable among the people, it naturally cannot be compared with the strange melons and exotic fruits in the palace. Let Childe see and smile. ”
There was a soft sound from inside the car, and immediately, a silver ingot was handed out.
"Childe? The food of the people is cheap, so there is no need for so much! Can you buy a whole target......? Dou was puzzled.
There was no answer in the car. The hand was not retracted, and the ingot of silver was right under his nose.
Dou Xi suddenly. Could it be that His Royal Highness just wants to buy a target begonia?
He didn't dare to hesitate. hurriedly bought the whole stick of begonia, stuffed the behemoth into the carriage, and everyone was stunned.
A target, there must be more than 30 strings, is it to open a shop by yourself, or are you not afraid of death?
Therefore, when the carriage stopped at the door of the auspicious shop, the onlookers who followed had already gathered.
Douxi attached his ears to the car window, and immediately walked into the auspicious shop, and invited the shopkeeper Hua Er to come out.
Hua Er looked at the carriage vigilantly, the curtain of the carriage was not lifted, I don't know who it was, the posture was ordinary.
Immediately, a wooden pole protruded from behind the curtain.
Hua Er subconsciously reached out to pick it up.
Then, the wooden pole became longer and longer, and Hua Er felt more and more heavy.
The wooden pole gradually changed into a straw stack, and then on the straw stack appeared begonia fruit bunches, one, two, three......
As the straw stacks stretched out, dense fruit bunches occupied Hua Er's line of sight.
Finally, the straw stack came to an end.
At this time, among the flowers, there are whole straw stalks, taller than her, more than 30 strings of begonias, bigger than her head.
She put the straw on the ground like a warrior with a big knife in her hand, and the scene was particularly incongruous.
"Which Erlenzi gave the girl's family a whole handful of fruits!"
Onlookers erupted in laughter.
Hua Er's face darkened.
Douxi touched his face, but the car was quiet, and there seemed to be a satisfied chuckle.
Satisfied?
Immediately, the carriage parted the flow of people and continued to move forward, without any superfluous words.
So later that day, everyone in Jixiangpu was nauseous.
So later that day, Li Chen saw Zhao Xixing come to the mansion in person to inspect the people's situation, and he was so excited that he burst into tears.
Before the laughter of the whole pole begonias was over, the next day, the carriage appeared at the door of the auspicious shop again.
