Chapter 185: A Flatbread with Dimples
This was the second time that Flatbread had come to deliver the message, and he had fallen in love with the new messenger.
Since making carrier pigeons, Xiao Ren has given two subordinates to the flatbread.
On the way to Yulin for the first time, Da Cake was very depressed, and he asked his subordinates: "Tell me, does Qishao dislike me?" ”
"How can it be, Brother Biscuit thinks too much." The subordinates spoke in unison.
"Then why don't you let the little chestnut be a pigeon?" The flatbread is not convinced.
"Because Brother Biscuit is better looking than Brother Li'er, you have dimples when you laugh, but Brother Li doesn't." The subordinate said.
Thinking about it, he has a personal style, but Xiao Chestnut doesn't, so Qi Shao will give him the messenger to deliver the letter.
As for the relationship between the two, the pie didn't think about it, and he didn't bother to think about it.
Today is the second time he came to Yulin, he brought two letters, one was written by Zhou Zheng to the county lord of Yining, and the other was written by Xiao Ren to Shen Tong, sent the letter, took the reward, the flatbread took a beautiful bath in the fragrant soup sprinkled with flower petals, and then ate the dim sum rewarded by the county lord of Yining, and tried on the new shoes that Shen Tong gave him.
"These shoes are pretty, aren't they?" The flatbread dangled its feet.
"It's beautiful, and it's embroidered with gold and silver thread." The subordinates looked envious.
The flatbread is very pleasant, good-looking and dimples, of course this messenger is his, it must be his, and the turn is not the turn of the little chestnut.
There was a knock on the door outside, and his subordinates ran to answer the door, and standing outside the door was Shen Tong's maid Fangfei.
"Ouch, it's Miss Fangfei, come in and sit, come in and sit." The subordinates hurriedly laughed.
Fang Fei smiled: "I won't go in, Brother Flatbread, my young lady invites you over." ”
Flatbread hurriedly got up and said, "Miss Shen's reply is finished, so fast." ”
Fang Fei smiled but did not speak.
Da Bi felt a little regretful in his heart, he still wanted to go shopping in Yulin, since Miss Shen had finished writing the letter, he would have to go back to Xi'an tomorrow.
The cake lives in the front yard of the Fan family, and through the moon cave gate, it is the back house where the ladies live, but the Fan family is the gate, and there is not much attention, and Fan Guiying occasionally meets his generals in the backyard, so the cake comes in smoothly.
Shen Tong didn't live with the county lord of Yining, she lived in the small courtyard next door, when the big cake came in, she sat at the stone table, she was wearing a light red shirt, and the golden sunlight sprinkled on the top and shoulders of her head, like a gold edge.
"Miss Shen, have you written a reply to Qi Shao?" Flatbread laughed out of his dimples.
"I haven't written it yet, I have something I want to ask you." Shen Tong said.
It turned out that he didn't come to pick up the letter, so tomorrow he could walk around Yulin and buy a pair of brocade socks from the Western Regions, good shoes with good socks.
Thinking of this, the dimples of the flatbread are deeper.
"Miss Shen, you just have to ask, the cake knows everything, and the words are endless, but the cake is rarely in Xi'an for a while, and I am afraid that I don't know some things."
That is, it's not that he doesn't want to say it, it's that he doesn't know.
Shen Tong didn't seem to hear the shirk in his words, and said softly: "General Xiao said in the letter that you are different from Xiao Lizi, Xiao Lizi follows him in and out, and the most frequent is the military camp. And you and Xiao Lizi are just the opposite, except for the military camp, there is nothing you don't know about in Xi'an City, so he asked you to send me a letter, and said that if you want to know something, just ask you, and he said that your words are the most,"
The cake finally understood that the reason why Qi Shao let him be a carrier pigeon was not because he was good-looking, but because he was ...... Talkative!
Flatbread raised his hand and wiped his tears: "Miss Shen trusts Flatbread, and Flatbread will never give up when she goes to the soup and fires." ”
Shen Tong laughed: "It's not necessary to go to the soup and fire, I just asked you a few words." ”
Flatbread wiped a handful of tears again: "Miss Shen is too good to Flatbread, and Flatbread can't repay it." ”
Shen Tong laughed again, the person sent by Xiao Ren is really interesting, well, much more interesting than Xiao Ren.
"Have you heard of the Mao Family School? It is said to be an elementary school. Shen Tong asked.
Flatbread thought about it for a while, and slapped his cheek: "Miss Shen is right, the Maojia School is indeed a primary school, and the people who study there are Mengtong, and there are not many people in Xi'an City who know about them, but Flatbread does." Although they have the name of the Mao family, they have nothing to do with the Mao family for a long time. In the previous dynasty, the Mao family produced a lifting person and two talents, in order to encourage the children of the clan to study and enter the office, they set up a clan school, which is called the Mao family school. Later, the war was chaotic, and the Mao family died and left, not to mention the school, and even the people of the Mao family didn't know where to go. Until last year, the flatbread once drank porridge on the street, saw a few children playing, and told them jokes, and then I learned that they were all studying in the Maojia School, it is said that the Mr. of the Kaixue Hall is from other places, the surname Zuo is not surnamed Mao, the reason why it is called the Maojia School, because the place where the school is located, and the Maojia School is on the same street. ”
"Mr. Zuo?" Shen Tong asked.
"Yes, the surname is Zuo, Da Bi thinks this gentleman is too unreasonable, so he doesn't use his surname, and uses someone else's, so he went around the Maojia School...... Miss Shen, the flatbread is not idle and has nothing to do, when I was in Xi'an, the flatbread was usually very busy. Flatbread hurriedly defended himself.
Yes, Shen Tong believes that the big cake is not too idle to talk to the children on the street, let alone casually inquire about an inconspicuous school.
The flatbread is Xiao Ren's personal companion and Xiao Ren's eyeliner.
Xiao Ren has two letters, one is written on paper, and the other is a flatbread, and a flatbread is a letter that can speak.
Liu's sister-in-law's son is studying in the Mao Family School, and the child is about ten years old, about the same age as her.
"Have you seen Mr. Zuo?" Shen Tong asked.
"Mr. Zuo is a real gentleman, he is also a person who opens his mouth and closes his mouth, wears a coarse cloth robe, but the fan in his hand is ivory, and the hand he uses to hold the fan has thick bone knots and green tendons, and it is extremely hard to write." Flatbread said.
"Mr. Zuo came to Xi'an last year to open the school, when was last year?" Shen Tong asked.
"Last summer, a little later than now." Flatbread is for sure.
Last summer, of course Shen Tong remembers, she had just returned to Xi'an.
She didn't come back alone, she also brought back A-Niang and Xinyu.
"Does Mr. Zuo have any friends? Readers like to recite poetry with their friends, right? Shen Tong asked again.
"The closest friend with Mr. Zuo is a relative of Liu's sister-in-law, his surname is Gao, is Liu's sister-in-law's maiden cousin, has been in Xi'an for ten years, has a wife and two sons, the youngest son is about the same age as Liu's sister-in-law's son, his family is a pen and ink shop, Mr. Zuo often goes to his shop to buy paper and pencils, and he becomes a friend when he comes and goes."
