Chapter 172: Food Box
Ming Yi held Kui Niang and pulled aside: "Be careful, don't squeeze." ”
Kwai Niang's eyes widened, she glanced at Ming Yi, and was speechless.
"Haven't you ever seen anything like this?" Ming Yi said softly.
Kui Niang nodded hurriedly: "I saw those men circling around my sisters in Xinglu Courtyard, although many sisters were willing to get close to Master Xing Qing, but he refused to be thousands of miles away, and no one dared to do it." ”
Mingyi leaned close to her ear and said, "So women are more lustful than men, but they don't show it often." ”
Although Kwai Niang was stunned, she slowly calmed down, nodded and said, "Also, good-looking people are always pleasing to people." ”
And the Cheng Yan in the crowd was quite complacent, and while asking for advice from afar, Mingyi replied and mingled with those women again.
Mingyi likes to watch this lively, and the words are quite strange. He likes to deal with beautiful women, and his heart of pity is very warm, but he can't stand long-term contact with women, and he feels troublesome and unreasonable.
She was still a little worried, when the time came, in the shops in the West Market, the families and outrooms of those wealthy merchants would be more enthusiastic, and it would inevitably be to touch them and squeeze them. Xing Qing, who was sitting diagonally opposite Rong Yifang, didn't know what kind of expression he would show when he saw it...... It's so interesting!
After a group of guests were sent away, another time, Kwai Niang had to help and move things out. It looks like it's going to close early today.
The sun was still hot, and as soon as the goods in the store were cleared, the women who were watching the excitement and asking long and short questions were coaxed away by Cheng Yan, and he grimaced at Ming Yi, showing that he was also tired.
Ming Yi sneered: "I think you are enjoying it, fortunately I understand you, otherwise I would really think that you are a prodigal son." ”
Cheng Yan said with a smile: "I like to deal with women, they are cleaner than men, there is a fragrance of fat powder on their bodies, and there is also the fragrance of flowers and herbs they wear, soft and slippery, their expressions are vivid, and they are vivid and fragrant with a smile and a smile, which is very interesting." ”
"What about Xing Qing?" Ming Yi asked directly, she didn't understand, since she loved women so much, how could she have feelings for each other with Xing Qing.
Cheng Yan smiled even deeper, and did not shy away from Kui Niang's presence: "Xing Qing is different, he is cleaner and softer than any woman." His joy is not on his face, but I can understand it. is even more distressed that he has something hidden in his heart, and insists on carrying it himself. ”
Ming Yi was stunned for a moment: "Do you know what he is hiding in his heart?" ”
"I don't know, but it must be something that makes him extremely miserable and can't let go. But when he says he's with me, he seems to be able to let go of a bit. I don't want to force him to say it, as long as I can make him smile, I'm satisfied. Cheng Yan said affectionately, which made Ming Yi envy Xing Qinglai.
Kwai Niang looked at Cheng Yan, her eyes were full of tears, but she was not complaining: "Cheng Daxia must be good with Master Xing Qing." ”
Cheng Yan was amused by her: "Don't call me a hero, just call me Brother Yan like Yinniang, I also want to have such a cute and delicate little sister." ”
Aoi Niang nodded obediently, and seemed to have accepted the change in this role. After all, she is a little girl, and the feelings of her secret love are sublimated into family affection, and she can accept it.
"You send Kui Niang back first, I'll wait, I'll come back later, let's go to Shaoyin's Mansion together." Mingyi saw that the sky was about the same, and arranged for the two.
Kwai Niang said: "I have to go back to Xinglu Courtyard tonight, Yin's mother said that Aya Luo is gone, there are not enough people, let me go back and help sing the song." ”
Ming Yi responded: "Okay, then you send Kwai Niang to Xinglu Courtyard." Aoi Niang is careful in everything. ”
Cheng Yan returned less than a stick of incense, and Ming Yi just cleaned up the shop. Counting the time, Wu Qianping is always the last to leave the Yamen, and it is too early to go to Rongyifang to ask for some wine and food, simple, cured beef, mixed with three skin silk, Yellow River fish, are all cold dishes, not afraid of delay. I asked for two cups of white fungus wolfberry, a plate of osmanthus cake, and two bottles of wine from the Western Regions. I borrowed a food box and took it all with me.
After all, Rong Yi Fang is not an ordinary restaurant, and the food boxes that can be borrowed or bought directly for guests are extremely exquisite. The black and bright red lacquer box, the face is a picture of a lady with luodian, the first layer is decorated with half a round southern pearl on the side, the second layer is decorated with Kawada's jade beads, the third layer is particularly high, used to place the soup cup, not easy to splash, and the side is a strip of gold flakes with carved flowers, making the shape of Huachuang in the boudoir. I'm afraid that this food box is enough for the average person to eat for half a year.
The account room was sensible, and deliberately said: "Xia Niangzi explained, this food box can only be borrowed by others, only Ming Niangzi, if you like it, you don't need to return it." ”
Ming Yi is not polite to him, this food box should be a thin gift to Wu Qianping, this kind of colorful and coppery thing, he must like it.
and Cheng Yan slowly arrived in front of Shaoyin's mansion alone, and Wu Qianping was about to arrive home.
Sure enough, after waiting for more than a moment, Wu Qianping rode back, and saw Mingyi standing at the door, accompanied by a strange man, he frowned, dismounted and walked over: "What's the matter?" ”
Ming Yi pointed to the food box in Cheng Yan's hand and lifted the wine bottle in his hand: "Bring some wine and food and share them with Shaoyin." ”
Wu Qianping glanced at the food box, his expression was a little relaxed, and his eyes fell on Cheng Yan again: "I've seen it, but it's just on the arrest paper." ”
Ming Yi smiled: "This is our newly hired Dr. Cheng, who is quite clever and capable, and rest assured and trustworthy." ”
Wu Qianping snorted: "Okay, you let him go back first, I'll drink with you." ”
Ming Yi took out two pieces of paper from his arms, shook them, and took them back: "I naturally have something to do here, and I need him to be a guard for a while." Let him wait outside. ”
Wu Qianping knew that it was the store's business, so he had no choice but to say to Chengyan: "Then stay away, for fear of causing gossip." ”
Ming Yi nodded to Cheng Yan, he obediently gave the food box, and led the horse away: "The lady goes out and steps on the ground three times, and I will appear immediately." ”
Wu Qianping glanced at him again, turned around and led Mingyi into the door.
When the old housekeeper saw Ming Yi, his face was gloomy, he took the food box and stretched it slightly: "Ming Niangzi is so polite this time. ”
"yes, who told me to take your two lanterns? This food box should be compensated for you. "Mingyi likes to be amused with this old man more and more.
The old housekeeper didn't smile, but only said: "Xie Niangzi is compassionate." ”
Ming Yi tugged at Wu Qianping's sleeve: "What?" If you lose the lantern, you still punish the old housekeeper? It's too mean. ”
Wu Qianping said with a smile: "He just doesn't want to have a difficult housewife at home." Don't worry, Ming Niangzi still can't look down on our Shaoyin Mansion, and she won't come in. ”
The wrinkles on the old housekeeper's face were less, but he was uncomfortable in his heart, and glanced at Ming Yi in a blink of an eye: "Ming Niangzi's vision is too high, she probably wants to enter the palace to be a concubine, right?" ”
Mingyi was choked by him, and he couldn't be too concerned with an old man, so he had to say haha: "Inherit the old housekeeper's noble words." ”
