Chapter Twenty-Five: The First Envy
"Brother Ziyan!"
The two of them were talking energetically, only to hear a delicate voice from far to near. Ziyan looked up, only to see Chu Xian coming in a pink woven gold gauze skirt, and Ziyan couldn't help but have a headache.
"Brother Ziyan, why didn't anyone inform me when you came, so that people didn't have time to dress up and came to see you." Chu Envy's delicate voice echoed in his ears, and Ziyan almost dizzy.
Yichen next to him can see it clearly, this is not time to make up, this is afraid that the fat powder that can be painted, the flowers that can be hairpinned, are all used, or the Yueqi girl is beautiful and tight! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but raise his head, and couldn't help but shudder at Ziyan, who was staring at him.
Wang saw that Ziyan didn't care about Chu Xian, and hurriedly cleared the siege: "Ziyan Shizi is discussing with me about the venue of the Oiran draft. ”
"That's my sister being reckless." Chu Xian responded obediently, and looked at Ziyan a little shyly. Ziyan didn't make a sound, and stroked the black plum in his hand.
This is Ling You has already sent the wine up and poured it for the three of them. Ziyan picked up the wine glass, sniffed it in front of his nose, and drank it all. He said to the king, "Since the king has already taken measures for the matter of the Oiran, the minister will go back to the house first."
"Brother Ziyan's wine was just delivered, you can drink two more glasses before leaving" Chu Xian heard that he was leaving, and hurriedly said.
"Princess Xie is good, but this wine is too strong, it is not as sweet as the white peaches in my house, so I won't sweep the king's Yaxing."
When the king saw that he had made up his mind to go, he knew that it was not good to stay, so he had to agree. "Go ahead, since you are here today about the selection of Oiran outside the city, help me pay more attention!"
Ziyan nodded slightly, and agreed. turned around and left with Yichen before and after. Only Chu Xian looked at his back with a look of resentment.
"Brother, what do you say this son of the flame likes to do!"
The king thought for a long time and suddenly thought of something and said to Chu Xian: "In the early years, I heard that Ziyan Shizi was drunk and made trouble in Qingmang's palace, and called a name for one night, and then moved out the next day to set up the Chiyan Shizi's mansion. Presumably the owner of that name is for the girl. ”
"Girl? My brother knows the girl's name, and where is it now? Chu Xian asked anxiously.
"Ah Li." The king thought for a long time before he remembered. That day, let Ziyan read the name all night, it was Ah Li!
"Do you know where this person is now?" Chu Xian was a little unhappy.
"I don't know, I've never seen any woman around him, he's been so old, he must have been an old man a long time ago. The most important thing is that you just have to be yourself and cherish the moment. ”
"That's what my brother said." The first envy replied with a complaint. Suddenly remembered the white peach brew that Ziyan had just mentioned, so he asked again: "Brother, is the white peach brew that Brother Ziyan just mentioned not even in our palace?"
Wang also thought about it, and turned to look at Lingyou next to him. Ling You hurriedly knelt down and said, "Go back to the king, princess." This white peach brew is a new wine in a folk wine shop in the past two days, and the folk pleasure thing seems to be on the table. ”
"Oh? Which liquor store? Chu Xian asked curiously.
"Back to the princess, this wine shop is not an ordinary wine shop, it is a very famous red mansion on Vientiane Street, called Yueshaofang."
"Moontip Fang? Isn't it the moon in the mouth of the masked woman that day? Chu Xian, first surprised, and then remembered the person he met that day when he bought hairpins, and thought that the boss said that Ziyan had set up a so-called membership in that Yuezifang, and he couldn't sit still for a while.
"Brother, why don't we go and have a look, since this Yuefang is so famous, why don't we go shopping, maybe we can meet Brother Ziyan!" Chu Xian couldn't help but make a small calculation in his heart.
Yueqi slept beautifully in the room, until her stomach growled, and she woke up. Just as he was about to get up to look for food, the owner came in with a food box.
"Mother, you're so good, I'm hungry" Yueqi sold cute in a coquettish tone. The owner of the workshop was very distressed when he saw her pitiful appearance, and hurriedly opened the food box.
"I see that you are sleeping well, thinking that you are just right, so I will let you sleep more, and then get up and eat quickly."
Yueqi saw that the owner of the workshop brought out a plate of light and elegant side dishes from the food box, and suddenly his stomach couldn't help but feel a little weak. continued to coquettish to the owner: "Mother, this side dish is also refreshing, but I have a little taste in my mouth, and I will add some flavor to it if there is any hot sauce or something."
"Spicy? Sauce? The owner looked at Yueqi suspiciously, as if he had never heard of it.
Yueqi saw that she looked puzzled, and estimated that she had said the wrong thing again, so she stopped making a sound. Hurriedly pinched the glutinous rice and osmanthus lotus root on the plate with his hands, put it into his mouth, and feasted on it. Seeing this, the owner hurriedly wiped the corners of her mouth with a hand towel and said, "Now that I'm smart, why don't I even know how to use chopsticks, so I have to use my hands?"
Yueqi smiled at her, which made the owner angry and funny, looking at Yueqi with joy in his eyes.
Yueqi picked up the dishes and ate them in a big gulp, and said while eating: "Mother, wait a minute, I'll go to the wine cellar to see if I can add a few new products, this white peach brew is simple to make, and it will soon be learned by others."
The owner touched her head distressedly and said, "I heard that you fainted yesterday, although I came back to see you today, I didn't ask in detail, is it really good?" What can happen to you in the Shizi Mansion? Has the prince embarrassed you? ”
Faced with a series of questions from the owner, Yueqi suddenly remembered Ziyan's snow-white chest, and couldn't help but turn red and said to the owner: "Mother, I was originally infected with the wind cold, and I suffered from heat stroke in the heat weather. The prince was afraid that it would be difficult for me to faint in his mansion, so he ordered someone to treat me and left me overnight, and did not embarrass me. ”
The owner nodded and said: "It's good that you don't embarrass you, but you are still a little girl who has not left the cabinet, and it is better to have less contact in the future." I think the young master of the Liu family is good, and he is good-looking and polite. ”
"Mother! Whether the young master of the Liu family is good or not, it's none of our business, we still have to think about how to do a good job and make money!" Yueqi said dissatisfiedly.
Seeing that she had no intention of treating the young master of the Liu family, the owner stopped continuing, and instead said, "Okay, okay, as long as you are good, you can do anything." Whether you earn money or not, your mother can still support you."
"Oh, mother, don't say that. I died yesterday, and I didn't go to see a doctor. That prince has already recorded all the five thousand taels of gold, and the other five thousand taels of Mangya Shizi have also traded with more than ten mermaid tears of good color" After speaking, Yueqi leaked a smug smile.
"More than a dozen!" The owner couldn't help but be a little surprised. But thinking about Mangya's true body, I understand. Just thinking of Mangya's cold face, I was puzzled again. "The ...... of the prince of Namangya"
"Mother, although the prince of Mangya has a cold face, he is a good person. I only said I wanted ten, and he gave me everything he made, and he didn't care. As Yueqi spoke, she drank another bowl of soup, and then she gave up, touched her slightly bulging belly with her hand, and sighed in her heart that she couldn't eat anymore!
"Mother, do you have any familiar jewelers? I want to use these more than 10 mermaid tears to make a set of jewelry for auction. Yueqi informed the owner of his thoughts. The owner thought for a while and said, "Yes, yes, but I'm afraid that this ordinary style can't set off such a good treasure."
Yueqi nodded, expressed her agreement, and said, "That mother asked the craftsman to come and discuss with me tomorrow, if I think it's okay, I'll just leave it to him to make." Seeing that she was thoughtful, the owner was full of joy and nodded approvingly.
