Chapter 15 The dark waves of the river and the tide fall

On the morning of the second day of arriving in Suzhou, it was the cry of the yellow oriole that woke up Luo Hansheng from his sleep. Luo Hansheng changed his clothes and pushed open the door. The table in the center of the pavilion is full of Suzhou's special food. There are small wontons, chicken soup, old lo mein and a basket of steamed buns. Looking at the steaming heat, I should have bought it just now. Ruoyan took the spoon and ate a bowl of wontons slowly and methodically. The strange thing is that Lian'er Xiaowu is not there.

He sat down at the table, Ruoyan raised his eyebrows and spoke: "I thought that Xiangye was asleep, and he woke up after three poles." ”

"It's rare to have a good dream, so I lingered for a while." Luo Hansheng was a little embarrassed.

"Isn't there a beautiful woman in your dreams?" Ruoyan teased him, "If you don't come to Xiao Wu, you will detain me, and you will not let me eat when you buy food." I have to wait for you to come. I annoyed him so much that I sent Lian'er to drag him out to find food to eat. Two of them should eat ravioli across the street. ”

"If you are hungry, eat yourself, and do not go hungry." Luo Hansheng put down his heart and doted.

Ruoyan glanced at him: "You go and tell Xiao Wu this, I can't afford to provoke him Master Meng." What's the use of talking to me. ”

Luo Hansheng couldn't cry or laugh: "Look at you, you were fine last time." Can you be angry with someone for a meal? ”

"Eating can't stop your mouth." Ruoyan glared at him.

"Yes, the market should open in a few hours after dinner. Jiangnan flowers bloom well, rouge gouache is good, you see what you want to buy back. Luo Hansheng laughed, "I'll take you around the garden later." If you feel hot, we can go for another bowl of ice cheese. I see you were so happy when you saw the sign yesterday that it said ice cream. It was very sweet. ”

Speaking of ice cheese, Ruoyan added color to her face: "You don't like sweets." ”

"When you see when I love sweets, I don't always accompany you. If you really like something sweet, you can only love it. Luo Hansheng smiled badly.

"I love sweets, when I was a kid, I loved cherry Biluo, and I remember there was a store where the cherry Biro was delicious. It's so delicious that people's hearts are happy. ”

Luo Hansheng remembered which cherry Biluo it was. In a trance, it seems to have returned to the scene of ten years ago.

Ten years ago, Yunfu.

The little girl held a piece of dim sum and approached the gentle and handsome young man with a sweet smile: "Brother Sheng, try the dim sum in the small kitchen." My mother specially asked the cook to make my peach blossom cake. ”

The young man took the snack and laughed: "Suddenly so flattering, I want me to go out with you again, right?"

The little girl pouted and said coquettishly: "I can't hide anything from Brother Sheng." Yesterday, I saw that my second aunt bought my younger brother the Yulu group from Yingyue Building. The second aunt gave me some, I didn't eat enough, I wanted to go to the store to eat. The mother is busy with them, and the nurse is going to buy Ayara again. Brother Sheng, you're the best, can you take me there?"

The young man didn't speak, the little girl was anxious, tugged on the boy's sleeve and looked at the boy with big eyes, and called aggrievedly: "Brother Sheng."

The young man was defeated and coaxed, "Take the guards with you." I'll buy it for you tomorrow and bring it to you. Cherries have just been harvested and sold. Would you like to take you to eat cherry Biro today?"

The little girl jumped up happily when she heard this: "Good! It's been a long time since I've eaten Cherry Billo! ”

The boy shook his head and picked up the little girl and placed it in the crook of his arm. The two guards next to him followed.

After leaving the Cloud Mansion, the little girl looked curiously east and west. Look at the strange things on both sides of the street. The boy took out the money from his purse and bought them for the little girl one by one.

The best thing Cherry Biluo in Chang'an City does is the elegant residence across the square from Yunfu. After the boy carried the little girl into the elegant house, the proprietress hurriedly greeted her and greeted her warmly: "My lord, is it a private room?" Something to eat?"

The young man smiled and said, "Yama, bring my sister to eat cherry Biluo."

The young man also has a somewhat green face, like a famous man's Danqing, with a shocking style, and his warm and mellow voice with a smile makes the proprietress blush a little.

After the little girl and the boy sat down in the private room, the little girl pouted and complained: "Why is it you who others see first every time you come out?" I'm cuter. ”

The young man smiled and rubbed the little girl's head: "Yes, Yan'er is the cutest, and she will definitely be the first beauty in the world in the future." When the time comes, no one will look at me when I come out with you. ”

Cherry Biro brought it up, and the little girl picked up a small piece and stuffed it into her mouth, and was so hot that she couldn't breathe. The boy hurriedly poured a cup of herbal tea and fed it to her mouth.

The little girl's eyes were shining: "Brother Sheng, the cherry Biluo in this shop is delicious!"

"The dough is filled with honey, and the cherries are made with the finest fresh cherries. Naturally delicious. ”

"It's so delicious that people's hearts are happy!" Ruoyan narrowed her eyes and smiled happily.

Gradually, the little girl's face coincided with the face of the current Ruoyan. Luo Hansheng pulled his thoughts from the memories.

Ruoyan on the other side looked at him and chuckled: "I'm so good-looking?" They were all stunned. ”

"Yes, it's pretty." Luo Hansheng was a little trance-like.

Ruoyan saw that he seemed to have something on his mind, so he didn't say anything, but just said: "The chicken soup tastes good, you taste it, I added some lotus root when I asked Lian'er to go back to the pot to cook." Now it tastes a little sweet, I don't know if you drink it or not. ”

"What Yan'er likes, naturally, is excellent." Luo Hansheng came back to his senses, and he couldn't wait to praise Ruoyan to the sky.

"Don't make a fuss about it, don't drink it quickly." Ruoyan scolded.

Luo Hansheng hurriedly took a sip, and after drinking, his eyebrows fluttered and he praised: "It's delicious!" ”

Ruoyan couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud: "How do you look like a child." How old are you now? ”

Luo Hansheng sat and thought about it: "I was twelve when you were six years old, and now you are sixteen, and I am twenty-two." ”

Ruoyan blushed: "You are so ashamed, you are still so serious when you sarcastically say it." I went to change my clothes and waited to get out. ”

With that, he put down the bowl of wontons and ran away. Luo Hansheng looked at the scarlet bar, and the blue skirt supported his head and laughed. The jade-like face is now full of vitality and smiles, sultry and good-looking, like a god in the sky, but not like a muddy body in the mortal dust. When it is a smile, it is worthy of the color of the mid-mountains in the south of the Yangtze River.

When the time came, Ruoyan and Luo Hansheng went out, and Xiao Wulian'er followed.

The Jiangnan market is not prosperous, but most of the people who sell rouge gouache jewelry hairpin rings account for most of them. It should really be a woman's favorite realm. After walking around in half a circle, Xiao Wu's hand was full of hugs.

Ruoyan saw the shop selling pastries and ran over. As soon as Luo Hansheng finished handing over the silver, the person disappeared as soon as he turned around, and Lian'er Xiaowu also patronized to see that Luo Hansheng didn't notice where the person went.

Luo Hansheng was so anxious for a while. Sweating in a panic, the three of them split up and searched for half an hour but didn't find anyone.

is Ruoyan, squatting at an alley to feed a kitten with yellow flowers on a white background.

Luo Hansheng looked for half an hour, and finally saw Ruoyan at the entrance of the alley not far away, and he was happy and angry. rushed up and hugged the person tightly into his arms, if Yan saw that he was not struggling, he looked at Luo Hansheng with an innocent and blank face and asked, "What's wrong?" With such a big anger, who provoked you? ”

"What are you doing here?" Luo Hansheng asked her angrily.

"Me?" Ruoyan looked innocent, "I'm feeding the cats here." ”

"You've been feeding the cats for half an hour?" Luo Hansheng stared at her and yelled.

Ruoyan was so frightened that she was about to cry, and said timidly: "I don't know, I thought it wasn't long, and it wasn't far away, so I didn't think much about it." ”

Luo Hansheng hugged her tighter and strangled her to pain. The strength was as strong as if he wanted to rub her into his bones and blood. Ruoyan was a little stunned, and it wasn't until a cool wet piece fell on his neck that he realized that Luo Hansheng was crying.

Luo Hansheng whispered in her ear over and over again: "I don't dare to lose you anymore, Yan'er, I beg you, I beg you not to scare me like this anymore, okay, I can't afford to lose it anymore." ”

Ruoyan hugged him and patted him gently like a child.

coaxed for a long time before Luo Hansheng was willing to let go. After returning to the garden, Luo Hansheng didn't let Lian'er and Xiao Wu ask more.

It's just that a few people have just settled down and haven't had a cup of tea, and Gonggong Lin in the palace came again. Lian'er served the tea and withdrew with interest.

As soon as Gonggong Lin saw Luo Hansheng and Ruoyan, he knelt down, and begged with tears: "Xiangye don't let the old slave get up, the old slave only begs Xiangye not to blame the old slave, the old slave went back to the emperor and returned truthfully, and the emperor was also happy that Xiangye found his relatives, and said that you should give the second lady something to reward when you go back." It's just that Concubine Shen didn't follow, and came to His Majesty again to say that Princess Wuyang's birthday was a big event, and you had to go back to get the royal face. The emperor was also angry, but it was not good to hurt face. He instructed the old slave to come back and talk to His Majesty. The old slave can't help it. ”

Gonggong Lin looked at Ruoyan again: "Second Miss, you still have to sell the old slave to save face in this matter." You will tell Xiangye, the old slave has also calculated, and the two of you will only be on the way back tomorrow for two and a half days. Just in time for the princess's birthday. The old slave had a difficult errand to do, and he smashed the entrustment of the Xiangye, and he felt that he couldn't live with the Xiangye, and he had no face to ask the Xiangye again. I beg you to give the old slave a face, so that the old slave will not be embarrassed. The old slave knew that this matter was very annoying to Xiangye, and His Majesty also felt that Xiangye would not be clean, so as not to let the Shen family run rampant. It's just that the concubine took out the emperor to put pressure. The old slave and the emperor can't help it. If the prime minister doesn't go back, the emperor will be asked by the concubine for the crime of unfilial piety. ”

Ruoyan also has a big head when he hears it, but Gonggong Lin is a person from the emperor's side, so he has to give some face.

Ruoyan got up and helped Gonggong Lin up, pretending to be well-behaved: "Yan'er is not in the way, but it still depends on the plans of the emperor and his brother." If the emperor had to let his brother go back, Yan'er also felt that it would be better for his brother to go back. It's just that Yan'er is a female streamer, and I don't understand all of the government and politics. The emperor and his brother are united, and everything is still the emperor and his brother's decision. Yan Er's father-in-law doesn't need to think about it. ”

Gonggong Lin was moved to tears: "It's good to have the words of the second lady, and the old slave can also speak when he asks for the prime minister." ”

Luo Hansheng drank tea and watched the drama for a while, and finally put down the teacup, and didn't say anything else, but just instructed Xiao Wu: "Go and pack up your things." ”

Gonggong Lin knew that Luo Hansheng was allowed. Busy knelt down and thanked again.

Ruoyan helped up Father-in-law Lin and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, don't kneel, if Yan'er's grandfather is still alive, I'm afraid he is not a few years older than his father-in-law, and it is a blessing for Father-in-law and his brother to kneel like this." ”

Gonggong Lin was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth when he was coaxed by Ruoyan's words: "Second Miss is really a wonderful person." If the old slave hadn't entered the palace, and there was such a granddaughter as the second lady, the old slave would have been able to wake up with a smile in his dreams. ”

Luo Hansheng was a little displeased, always worried that it was not a good thing for Ruoyan to please these people in the palace, so he found an excuse to call Ruoyan back to his side: "Yan'er, the tea is almost cold." If you don't taste it, you're wasted. ”
