Chapter 70: Please Eat Tofu
Zhan Qi turned around when he heard Du Xiaomeng's shout, and when he turned around, he saw Du Xiaomeng staring at the small silver box in his hand with a surprised expression.
Seeing the small silver box, Zhan Qi's first reaction was to touch his body. As soon as he touched it, the place where the silver box was originally placed was empty, and a look of discomfort immediately flashed on his face.
Du Xiaomeng's gaze was still on the things in his hand, and he didn't see Zhan Qi's expression change. She shook the little silver box at him in confusion and asked, "What is this?" ”
"Oh, this thing......" Zhan Qi paused, looked at Du Xiaomeng as if very casually, and then looked at the small silver box in her hand, and then said in a casual tone: "I saw that the mobile phone you said was very interesting, so I took the mobile phone diagram you drew and asked a craftsman to make it according to the drawing." Because he was telling the truth, when he said this, his tone was very calm, and there was not the slightest difference on his face.
"Huh? Can it be made? Du Xiaomeng was even more surprised. She quickly lowered her head and opened the folded cover of the silver phone. I can open it! The position of the screen is inlaid with a polished crystal sheet, and several rows of three-dimensional buttons are also complete. It looks quite similar to a real phone! Out of inertia, she held the silver phone in the same position as she usually held the phone to send texts, and pressed her thumb to the button. However, when the finger pressed the keys, I found that those keys were hard and could not be pressed at all. She couldn't help but feel a little funny about her actions, and really thought that people in this era could make modern mobile phones? This mobile phone is just a silver box made like a mobile phone.
Du Xiaomeng's action of pressing the button made Zhan Qi feel a little incomprehensible, and asked the craftsman to make this mobile phone according to the picture, and after he worked on it for several days, he figured out that this thing has only one purpose. He told Du Xiaomeng about the use he had discovered: "This thing is very good to use as a money bag. ”
"Money...... Bag? Du Xiaomeng's eyes involuntarily widened by half a minute. Look carefully at the "mobile phone" and see a small protruding dot on the side, press it to open the box. When they opened it, they found no silver, not even a copper plate.
Didn't you say that it was used as a money bag? Du Xiaomeng looked at Zhan Qi with some doubts, but Zhan Qi said, "Since you picked it up, I'll give it to you." ”
"Huh? Why give it to me? Du Xiaomeng's brain blurted out to ask before she could react.
Zhan Qi rarely encountered when he wanted to give something to others, and others would ask him why he gave gifts. However, he was quick to give the reason: "Because the craftsman has made this box a little smaller, and it can't fit the silver I usually carry with me." ”
Du Xiaomeng was not very satisfied with this reason, and always felt that Zhan Qi would not send her something for no reason, so she couldn't help but continue to ask: "Even if this is the case, you don't have to give it to me." ”
Zhan Qi glared at her as if she didn't know what to do, and said, "Why is there so much nonsense? If you don't want it, take it back and let me throw it away! ”
Du Xiaomeng hurriedly pulled the silver phone in his hand and said, "Since you gave it to me, don't think about taking it back!" "Think she's stupid? This silver mobile phone looks like a valuable item made of real silver, so she won't be stupid enough to give away the real money in her hand and throw it away!
Looking at her little look, Zhan Qite snorted at her in a long nasal voice with disdain, turned around and left.
Du Xiaomeng didn't mind being despised by someone Zhan, so she happily stuffed the silver phone into her arms and trotted to keep up with Zhan Qi's pace.
Hearing her footsteps catching up from behind, Zhan Qi's tightly pursed lips curled upward, and there was a smile in his eyes.
After Du Xiaomeng caught up, he looked at him and asked puzzledly, "What are you laughing at?" ”
Zhan Qi touched his face and asked, "Am I laughing?" ”
"Yes!" Du Xiaomeng nodded seriously, those dark eyes turned around on Zhan Qi's face, and a bad smile suddenly appeared on his face, shaking his head and saying, "You look much better when you smile than when you have a straight face!" When you keep your face up, it's a waste not to ward off evil spirits and catch ghosts! ”
Not understanding the meaning of her words, Zhan Qi asked with a lot of mouth: "Why?" ”
Du Xiaomeng put away her smile and looked at Zhan Qi with a serious face, deliberately slowed down her speech and raised her voice and said: "Because, when you have a straight face, you look as powerful as the stupid black-faced door god on the door, what kind of evil demon will definitely turn around and run away in fright when he sees you so powerful, really!" As if I was afraid that people wouldn't believe it, I deliberately added two words to further affirm it.
Zhan Qi didn't react at first, but gradually, he finally understood the meaning of the ridicule in Du Xiaomeng's words. Say he's stupid and black-faced, right?
"Du Xiaomeng!" Zhan who woke up couldn't help but let out a loud roar.
Du Xiaomeng, who had been observing his face, had slipped away when he saw that his face was wrong before he roared, leaving him with a cheerful back and a string of happy laughter after the calculation succeeded.
Zhan Qi didn't chase after him, but slowed down and watched the red figure run out of his sight happily, and then, a lonely expression appeared on his face.
Recently, she has been wearing clothes that Yu Tianzheng gave her. The distant red reminded him of the box of clothes hidden in a corner of his room. That day, he secretly found a girl ring with a body similar to Du Xiaomeng, and asked the people in the embroidery workshop to make a few sets of autumn and winter clothes according to that figure. However, Yu Tianzheng sent a batch of new clothes one step ahead of him, so he secretly took back the clothes that had been made in the embroidery workshop, packed them in a box and hid them in a hidden corner where no one was discovered, and also buried his heart that he wanted to be good to Du Xiaomeng.
When Zhan Qi got out of Liulipo and got into the carriage, he saw Du Xiaomeng, who had been in the car for a long time, concentrating on fiddling with the silver mobile phone. He smiled softly, sat down, and after instructing Shen Wan to drive, he watched Du Xiaomeng fiddle with interest.
was preconceived by Zhan Qi's words, and Du Xiaomeng really used it as a money bag. This is not? She took out all the money on her body and put it in her silver phone one by one.
She was busy putting money into her mobile phone, and she didn't have time to pay attention to Zhan Qi, and Zhan Qi kept quiet and didn't interrupt her busyness. For a moment, only the sound of horses' hooves and the sound of wheels rolling on the road could be heard outside the carriage.
After a long while, Du Xiaomeng finally packed the money and closed the silver phone. She was obviously in a good mood, and she played with her silver phone and said to Zhan Qi: "In order to thank you for giving me a gift, I will invite you to eat tofu tonight." ”
As soon as her words came out, Zhan Qi was obviously taken aback, and then stared at her as if he was looking at something strange.
Du Xiaomeng suddenly remembered an allusion that Liu Lu had told him before: a long time ago, a beautiful widow in the capital opened a small shop selling tofu, and everyone called her "Tofu Shih". Many men who covet her beauty, under the pretext of "loving tofu made by Shih Tzu", go to the store every day to find opportunities to tease her and take advantage of her. As a result, over time, the term "eating tofu" in this era has the same original meaning and metaphor as in modern times.
Obviously, Zhan Qi was thinking crookedly.
After coming to her senses, it was Du Xiaomeng's turn to "hum" Zhan Qi with contempt, and then straightened her face and said, "Don't think about it, what I want to invite you to eat is the Baihua stuffed tofu I made." ”
Zhan Qi's face immediately turned red, but he still said stubbornly: "I know what kind of tofu you are talking about!" "After all, I was very embarrassed to look at the scenery outside the car as if nothing had happened.
Du Xiaomeng was in a good mood, and for the sake of Zhan Qi giving him a silver mobile phone, he laughed at his performance, and then turned his head to look at the scenery outside the car.
The sun was shining outside the car, and on this sunny afternoon, the carriage carried two people who were also in a sunny mood like sunshine, and ran forward happily.
