Chapter 159: Visiting the capital and meeting old friends

Hu Yanjin went out to Taisun East Palace with his front foot, and Fang Wanyan entered Huyan Mansion with his back foot.

"Girl, Miss Fang is looking for you!" Xiao Qi said as he opened the cotton curtain for Fang Wanying.

Fang Wanying smiled when she entered the door: "The padded jacket you wear for the door is good, and I will ask the girl to sew one when I go back." The snow has stopped outside, what are you doing at home? I finally managed to sneak out today, and you have to go out with me. ”

"Come on, you see, I'm baking bread in a fire cage."

"What's so fun about baking bread, let's go out. Xiao Qi, change your girl's clothes! ”

"It's not fun, but it's delicious! My father taught my mother that the flour was filled with egg yolks, milk, and sugar,......" Hua Qiao said, tearing off a small piece and putting it in Wanyan's mouth.

"Delicious...... What is this practice? The dough is so expensive. Where did the egg whites go? "Fang Wanyan is also a snacker.

Hua Qiao pointed to her face and said proudly, "I wiped my face." My dad said that when egg whites wipe his face, his face is like a shelled egg. ”

Soon the two girls went out in men's clothes. In winter, it is more convenient for women to dress up as men, all of them are dressed thickly, and when you wear a hood on the hood, you really can't tell the difference between men and women.

"Tomorrow on the winter solstice, how can you still sneak out?"

"My mother took the grandmothers to the temple to offer incense, and at noon they had to eat in the temple, and when they were not at home, no one at home could take care of me. That...... Why don't you come out and play with you? Hey, I'm telling you, that sapphire you gave me last time......"

Although Xiao Gao was not interested in listening to the girls talk about these trivial things, he didn't dare to stay too far away from them.

In winter, he is not used to wearing too much, and he really wants to fight, and it is inconvenient to move when his clothes are thick. Hu Yanjin also has this habit, so he specially made a thick coat for him, but the fox fur is missing.

Because tomorrow is the winter solstice, there are people everywhere who come out to buy, and the snow has stopped, and there are many people who come out to walk.

"What do you want to see? Jewelry or something new? Fang Wanyan asked.

Hua Qiao looked around for a while, shook her head and said, "On such a cold day, I want to eat something delicious early." ”

"So unambitious?" The two grinned and walked forward.

When Hua Qiao and Fang Wanyan walked through the door of an inn, the store was rushing people out, and several scholars were carrying their own bookcases and baggage, and some were not giving up: "Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, you can make it convenient, you will drive us away, where can we find an inn!" ”

"I let you go now for your own good, if you are asked to leave after the end of the Chinese New Year's Eve, you will only be living on the streets!" I'm sorry for you, when I stayed in the hotel, I said that our house Chinese New Year's Eve would not open until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. ”

A few people pushed and shoved, and they were about to hit Hua Qiao, Xiao Gao quickly walked over to block them, and pushed them, and they all "cooed", and they all lay on the shopkeeper's body, and the shopkeeper didn't hold it up, and sat on the ground with a butt.

"Oops, who pushed me! We are all going to participate in next year's spring show, and it's terrible to push it! That Xiucai turned around, and Hua Qiao looked amused: "Gong Xiucai, why are you?" ”

Gong Xiucai also recognized the buckwheat, and immediately said with a smile: "Oh, it turned out to be a girl, yo, Brother Gao is also there, what a coincidence, we are about to change the inn, look at it, you see, it is really Sven sweeping the floor, making you laugh." ”

Fang Wanyan pointed to the front and said, "You go to the previous intersection, just by the small bridge, there is an inn there, they don't close for the New Year." If you go earlier, you might be able to stay in a room with a window facing the river. ”

A few Xiucai thanked the two of them and left.

As he was talking, two more scholars came out of the inn, and when they saw the commotion outside the door, they couldn't help but look at them too.

"Buckwheat!" One of the dashing and beautiful young men called out in surprise.

Hua Qiao knew who it was when she heard the voice, and hurriedly took Wan Yan's hand to greet her, and asked happily: "Third Brother Xu, Second Brother Xu, why did you come to Beijing so early?" Didn't you say that you only came here after the New Year? ”

"Well, the second brother said......"

"Hey! It's buckwheat! Such a coincidence? Let's come early and get used to it early! I'm my brother's butler, and you see if he didn't have me, he'd be living on the street now. ”

Second Brother Xu seems to be fatter than before, probably after failing the township test, he let himself go, he squeezed his eyes at Hua Qiao and said, "You don't know yet, right?" Xu San took the first place in the township test! The pride of Quan Baoying! ”

Both girls pursed their lips and laughed.

Hua Qiao looked at the luggage in their hands and asked, "Are you also looking for a new inn?" ”

"No, no, no, there is a second brother here, why worry about Xu Xiucai? I've found a good place to study, called 'Bamboo Forest Residence', how about it? As soon as you hear it, it's a bright festival, right? ”

"Second brother, we haven't seen Hua Qiao for a long time, or else, please ...... Ate with her friends and then go over. Xu Zhijin looked at his brother and suggested.

Xu Zhiheng shook his head and said, "I have already made an appointment in Yajuli, you go, I want to bring things over, you come over early." Buckwheat ...... And this friend, then I'll be one step ahead! "He made an appointment with a little girl who played the pipa, and tonight he drank wine and listened to music in the bamboo forest.

After Xu Zhijin sent his luggage and his second brother to the carriage, he came over happily: "Okay, tell me where you want to go." ”

"Let me introduce you first, this is half of my teacher Xu Zhijin. This is my good friend Fang Wanyan in Jingshi, and this is Xiao Gao in my senior brother's family. ”

Xu Zhijin glanced at it just now, and saw that Hua Qiao was also pulling a girl dressed in men's clothes, he nodded at them with a smile, and added: "I am a friend of Hua Qiao Baoying, and we grew up together. This time, I came here to prepare for the exam, and I will take the exam in March next year. After that, let's see how lucky it is. ”

Fang Wanyan had a good impression of this personable showman, and she smiled: "I am more familiar with Jingshi than you, it has been snowing heavily in the past few days, so let's go to the Snow Tower to enjoy the snow, isn't it appropriate for the occasion?" The owner of that shop is from Nandu, and all of them are authentic Nandu dishes. ”

"Okay, let's go to the Snow Tower. By the way, Xiao Gao, you go and tell my senior brother, we are waiting for him in the snow tower. ”

Xiao Gao was a little reluctant: I'm not Agua, he's the errand runner...... I'm gone, what if you get in trouble again?

He lowered his head and whispered, "Did I find you those little stones?" "Now that the ground is covered with snow, it's not easy to pick up a stone.

Hua Qiao was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect that she would have to bring stones on the street, so she had to shake her head. Xiao Gao glared at her with hatred, turned around and walked away quickly.

Yi Chengjin saw that this was probably the bodyguard Hu Yanjin found for her, and couldn't help but smile dumbly: "Hua Qiao, how uneasy are you, there are a lot of troubles, right?" Nervous Lord Huyan like this. ”

"No, let's go, step on the snow building!"
