Chapter 538: Encountering the Dead Soul Again
The first time I saw this "young woman" in Taoyuan Village, I already noticed the "mystery" when I returned in spring.
The woman was standing on the edge of the ridge, her eyes were blank, she was dressed in cloth and was no different from an ordinary peasant girl, but the breeze could not touch the corners of her clothes and skirts, as far as the experience of returning from spring was concerned, this was a soul.
Later, I saw that she went straight to the canal to communicate without trouble, and the spring return was more determined to talk about experience.
Although there are a few spacious guest rooms that Ge Gong sorted out for them to live in, it no longer prevents her from sharing a room with Lan Ting, but because of the private interviews that have collected a lot of information, Lan Ting has no choice but to discuss with Zhou Wang Bingzhu these days.
The woman looked like she was in the middle of cardamom, with a pleasing round face, and she was still shy when she saw a stranger, and she was obviously anxious but didn't know how to speak, so she stood on the edge of the bed and hung her head and sobbed.
Qu Chuxian was anxious, and stomped his feet and said: "Since you know that the fire burns your eyebrows, why do you want to say so much?" Except for Gu Yiren in the world, no one can help you dispel your delusion and go to Dumingcang, but today you stammered and didn't tell me what happened to you, I only know that you are in a hurry to save your brother, and I can't explain it for you, don't hurry up, at this time, there is still time to cry sadly! ”
When she said this, the little girl cried even harder.
Chungui had no choice but to guide: "Are you from Taoyuan Village?" ”
Little Girl: Boom.
Chungui: "You were killed?" ”
Little Girl: Boom.
Chun Gui: "Your brother is in danger?" ”
Little Girl: Wow, wow, wow.
Spring Return: ......
At this moment, the door was pushed open, and the little girl ran through the wall immediately when the ditch came out.
Spring Return: ......
Lan Ting bypassed the painting screen, and saw Chungui sitting on the bed upright, and felt strange for a while, and hurriedly tried Chungui's forehead closely, although he didn't notice anything abnormal, he was still not at ease: "What's wrong?" Why don't you want to sleep? ”
His little wife especially cherishes the "Spring Festival Moment", unintentional sleep itself is abnormal, Lan Ting will come to inspect in the middle of the night because he can't rest assured, a few nights ago Spring Gui has obviously returned to normal, and it is difficult to sleep tonight.
"Woken up hungry." Chungui had to find an excuse that could make Lan Ting believe and at the same time no longer worry.
"It just so happens that His Highness is also feeling hungry, and Adan is cooking." When Lan Ting heard that Chun Gui was also disturbed by hunger, he immediately decided to replace Ah Dan: "Ge Gong is enthusiastic, there are a lot of ingredients in the kitchen of the guest house, what does Huihui want to eat?" ”
Chungui had no choice but to talk nonsense, Lan Ting went straight to the kitchen, and even didn't forget to wake up Qingping and Mei Jealousy to come over to serve Chungui to comb his hair and clothes, Chungui tidied up himself, and then dragged his steps and pushed the door out, seeing that the courtyard was still shining at this time, and His Royal Highness King Zhou showed two rows of dazzling white teeth at her.
A woman who can be woken up by hunger is really cute.
But he said: "Thanks to the third brother, he also feels hungry, and in the middle of the night, he can work for the eldest brother to cook himself." ”
How do you know that this flattering face makes Chungui suddenly feel that the alarm bell in his heart rings for a long time, and he has the consciousness of being courteous and diligent for nothing, and he is naturally not flattered by His Royal Highness King Zhou, and he sat down seriously in the past, and did not hesitate to shirk the credit: "As long as the second brother speaks, the eldest brother will not refuse to cook, I am useless, how can I deserve the word 'thanks to'." ”
In the end, it is under the fence, for the sake of prudence, the spring return is no longer commensurate with His Royal Highness at this time.
Who knew that King Zhou was secretly happy in his heart: Gu Yiren treated Xiao Wang more and more respectfully.
He said something as if he had nothing to say: "When the third brother was wandering alone in Taoyuan Village today, my eldest brother and I went to a farmer's house to ask for tea to quench our thirst, and I heard the farmer talk about a murder in Taoyuan Village. ”
Spring returns to my heart, which is a "gurgle".
It turned out that after she inadvertently took a look with the little girl during the day, she was worried that the little girl would immediately rush forward and ask her to help release her delusion, so she found an excuse that she wanted to wander around at will, so she didn't follow King Zhou and Lan Ting to visit the farmer privately, and she didn't expect to miss an incident, Taoyuan Village is only twenty or thirty households with a population of nearly 100 people, and there will not be many murders in the near future, it should be related to the little ghost.
Then he asked: "What murder, and what's the reason?" ”
King Zhou also started from the beginning: "I and Ji Be, I just wanted to ask for well water to quench our thirst, but I didn't expect that the farmer who looked quite simple actually had tea at home, although it was only a common coarse tea on the market, and naturally it was not excellent, I thought that although the farmer's family was poor but also rich in elegance and fun, how did I know that just a compliment, the farmer didn't even dare to say it, and only then did he explain that it was a villager in Taoyuan Village yesterday who invited guests to set up wine, and this tea was the answer given by the main family. Knowing that although Jiangnan is rich, ordinary farmers are not necessarily rich, and often only invite banquets and wine at weddings, so he asks which family married a bride yesterday. ”
Chungui endured his impatience, and said in his heart that Mo Dao Nong made a tirade, Your Highness, your opening remarks are not short.
King Zhou put on a storytelling posture more and more, and even picked up the chopsticks that had been prepared and knocked on it, which was used as the role of "stopping".
After knocking, he continued: "According to the farmer, the family who set up the wine is not to marry a woman, but the eldest daughter of the family died not long ago, and the eldest son of their family also made a fuss about this matter, and everyone in Taoyuan Village knew about it, but it was precisely because the eldest daughter died that the second daughter of the family had good luck, so they put on a banquet to celebrate, and the third brother you will not expect what the family is entertaining." ”
Chungui originally thought that the eldest daughter had set a good family affair, and after the unfortunate death, his sister would marry his sister, but he remembered that King Zhou had already said that the family was not marrying a woman and a daughter, so he naturally denied this conjecture, and was very honest and did not succeed: "I naturally didn't expect it." ”
Chungui didn't estimate and guess at all, but it didn't prevent King Zhou from knocking on the "stop" again.
"It was actually for his youngest daughter to be selected as a hired worker in the family of Lou Zang Lou in Hangzhou City instead of the eldest daughter who died young, so a big banquet to celebrate, not only did I feel surprised when I heard it, but I also felt that it was a strange thing." King Zhou reveals the mystery.
Chungui followed the two of them for a long time, but he had also heard of the famous rich Jia Lou Zang Lou Lianggong in the four provinces south of the Yangtze River, and asked: "But the leading silk merchant in Hangzhou City?" ”
King Zhou immediately complimented: "The third brother's memory is really unforgettable." ”
"It's just a hired hand, how can it be so festive?"
"The third brother and I also thought of a place, and I raised this question at that time, and then I listened to the peasant's details. Although this Lou Zang is rich, it is not for the rich and unkind, especially for the hired workers, and never forces the hired workers to sign the deed of sale, not only to provide food and lodging, but also to pay the most abundant wages in the south of the Yangtze River, so that many poor farmers have tried their best to send their daughters to the Lou family, but whenever they are chosen, the Lou family silk village is not only
The hired workers will be taught the art of weaving silk, and the hired workers will be given a sum of money in advance, and the selected girls will become official silk weavers in the future, and even the marriage can be arranged by the silk house. The daughters of poor people's families, most of whom are raised to marry villagers, how can they be more honest than the families that rich people find for these girls? The farmer in Taoyuan Village said that he had a distant relative, and the two girls in the family were fortunate to be selected as the employees of the Lou family silk village, relying on the salary of the two daughters over the years, the family actually purchased dozens of acres of fertile land, not to mention, the eldest daughter was matched by the silk village manager, and married a Xiucai, who was also admitted to the Jinshi, an ordinary peasant girl, and became an official housewife, so if the daughter of the family can be selected as the Lou family weaver, it is like climbing half of the high branches. ”
Chun Gui bowed: "It sounds like this, the Lou family silk weaver is really a good way out for the daughter of a poor family." ”
"So, I was so enthusiastic that I didn't notice anything strange, and I didn't have any doubts in front of the peasant, but after I came back, I finished discussing with him, and I suddenly mentioned such a matter earlier, and after his analysis, I came to my senses."
At this point, Lan Ting had already come out of the kitchen, and he personally brought a bowl of Yangchun noodles ordered by Chun Gui himself, and Adan was holding a tray behind him, and there were many small plates but no soup bowls.
King Zhou's eyes suddenly became full of grievances: "Where is my face?" ”
Especially seeing the golden soup base in the white porcelain soup bowl, lined with snow-white slender noodles and dotted with green onions, and smelling the fresh fragrance that gradually spreads with the heat, King Zhou's eyes are even more sad.
"You didn't say you wanted noodles." Lan Ting replied as a matter of course.
King Zhou: ......
Zhao Jidon't be a wife and slave, a guy who forgets his righteousness!
Adan was expressionless: "If the sixth master feels that the food cooked by the slave maid is not appetizing, the slave and maid will have to put it down." ”
King Zhou rolled his eyes and looked at the more and more cold handmaiden in his house, gritted his teeth and smiled: "It's better to eat than to watch, put it down!" But Chong Lanting, who had a small belly and chicken intestines, declared: "This is the food cooked by my maidservant, and you are not allowed to eat it!" ”
Spring returns to take the empty bowl in front of Lan Ting like a peaceful person: "Let's share this bowl of Yangchun noodles." ”
King Zhou: ......
These two are showing affection again!
But he hurriedly moved a plate of dry-fried bells to Lan Ting: "I said that I was playing, how could I really be so stingy, share and share, I will share with the eldest brother that the third brother is awake from hunger, and a bowl of noodles is not enough for you to fill your hunger alone." ”
Spring Return: ......
She looks so big with a stomach?
Seeing that Lan Ting actually drank wine with King Zhou, Chun Gui suddenly felt a little greedy, and people who didn't feel hungry were really worried that they would have a stomachache after eating this bowl of Yangchun noodles, so they looked at Lan Ting with a blank eye: "Suddenly I want to drink again, I have to eat some side dishes with wine, this bowl of noodles is still eaten by everyone." ”
King Zhou immediately jumped up with joy again: Gu Yiren was really becoming more and more considerate, knowing that Xiao Wang was greedy for spring noodles, so he said such a proposal that was in the right place.
He took on the role of a dough divider with great interest, carefully dividing a bowl of noodles into three parts that looked quite equal, almost wishing that he could even count the green onions and rice evenly, Lan Ting and Chungui looked at King Zhou with four eyes, and both of them were speechless, shaking their heads and touching the wine cup first.
Chun Hui asked: "Don't you think there is anything strange about the death of the daughter of the family in Taoyuan Village?" ”
