Chapter Ninety-Five: Eating Pastries
A shallow shyness appeared on Yang Yuhuan's face, and he held Fang Yun's hand even harder.
The slave set his eyes on the cold pastries, pulling Fang Yun's clothes with one paw, and pointing at the food with the other.
Fang Yun reached out to cover its eyes and stepped up the stairs to the second floor.
"Boom...... Hmph!" The slave turned his head to avoid Fang Yun's hand, and looked up at Fang Yun dissatisfiedly, as if to ask if you dislike me for eating too much?
On the second floor, Fang Yun and Yang Yuhuan's eyes lit up, and sure enough, they looked different from standing on the first floor, and their field of vision was wider.
No one played the piano on the second floor, almost all of them were dressed in Xiucai or Juren robes, a few people were wearing ordinary brocade robes like Fang Yun, and there were also a few children with serious expressions standing on both sides.
A few people glanced here, and most of them ignored Fang Yun's face, and more people looked at the beautiful Yang Yuhuan.
There were also a few people who looked at Yang Yuhuan and then at the slave, and then looked at Fang Yun again, thoughtfully.
Fang Yun didn't know anyone, nodded slightly to say hello, took Yang Yuhuan's hand to the windowsill, and looked outside.
The slave jumped onto the window, wagging his tail slightly, and looked around curiously.
Both sides of the Yudai River were crowded with people.
Fang Yun pointed to a bridge in the distance and said, "It should be the Longtou Bridge, before the game starts, let's go there." It's a pity that the bridge is full of people now, otherwise it must be good to watch the dragon boat race at the bridge. ”
"Hmm. When does the dragon boat race start?" Yang Yuhuan looked curiously at the sandbar in the river, it was the first time she had seen such a large-scale dragon boat race when she had grown so big.
"I really don't know what to do. ”
"According to the time in the army, the dragon boat race will start at ten o'clock, and there is still more than an hour before now, so there is no hurry. A pleasant voice came from behind him.
Fang Yun and Yang Yuhuan turned back together.
A handsome young man who was a head shorter than Fang Yun walked over, this person's facial lines were soft, if it weren't for the trace of heroism in his eyes, Fang Yun would have thought that this was a woman.
Then, Fang Yun took a look at this person's neck, there was no Adam's apple, it turned out to be a woman.
The beautiful boy held a fan in his hand, walked over and arched his hand to Fang Yun, and said with a smile: "Zhao Zhuzhen in the lower capital." ”
Fang Yun returned the salute and said, "Fang Yun." ”
Fang Yun had deliberately lowered his voice, but a few people still heard it and immediately looked here, staring at Fang Yun with a strange gaze.
Zhao Zhuzhen didn't seem to care about Fang Yun's identity at all, walked to Fang Yun's side, looked out the window, and said, "Brother Fang is not interested in dragon boat racing?"
"It's okay. "Fang Yun has seen too much entertainment and sports.
"Brother Fang is not like a hot-blooded reader. ”
Fang Yun said indifferently: "If the blood is hot when you look at the dragon boat, it will be too cold when you kill the demon." ”
"What Brother Fang said is that Zhuzhen is taught. Zhao Zhuzhen turned his head to look at Fang Yun, there was a trace of surprise and appreciation in his eyes, as if he didn't believe that such a young person could say such a thing.
"Brother Zhao is polite, everyone understands the truth. ”
"But not everyone can say it, not everyone can do it. Zhao Zhuzhen said.
"What Brother Zhao said is that Fang Yun is taught. ”
Zhao Zhuzhen smiled, looked at Yang Yuhuan, and said, "Your lady is so beautiful." ”
That's what everybody else says. Fang Yun smiled, and Yang Yuhuan glanced at Fang Yun shyly.
The slave looked at Yang Yuhuan suspiciously, as if to say that Fang Yun was right, what are you doing to give him white eyes?
Zhao Zhuzhen chuckled, revealing a mouthful of fine white teeth, and said: "Those insightful people say that you have a furrow in your chest, and you are a madman in those novels, but I didn't expect you to be like a madman, with a strange temperament." ”
"Thanks for the compliment. Fang Yun looked at Zhao Zhuzhen with a smile, her eyes were very clear, and she was extremely bright by the sky outside the window, but there seemed to be something hidden behind the brightness.
"Weirdos. Zhao Zhuzhen avoided Fang Yun's gaze and looked out.
Fang Yun and Yang Yuhuan chatted in a low voice, and occasionally the slave interjected a few times, and the two of them were particularly warm.
However, the slave still did not give up, and after a while, he pulled Fang Yun's sleeve with one paw and pointed at the pastries on the table on the second floor with the other.
Fang Yun stretched out his hand and twisted the slave's head outside, and the slave immediately protested.
Zhao Zhuzhen on the side smiled slightly and motioned to the entourage behind him to serve pastries.
After a while, the attendant brought over a plate of pastries and handed it to Zhao Zhuzhen.
Zhao Zhuzhen held the pastry in one hand, picked up a piece in the other hand and handed it to the slave, and said, "Eat." ”
Nu Nu's eyes lit up, glanced at her, and then turned his head to look at Fang Yun, asking for Fang Yun's opinion.
"Xie Lu, Brother Xie, Brother Zhao, you can eat. Fang Yundao.
The slave carefully stretched out his little paws, retracted them the moment he touched the pastry, and looked up at Fang Yun again, his eyes full of antiquity.
Fang Yun shook his head helplessly, reached out and took the piece of pastry and handed it to the slave, who ate it happily.
"Good obedient little fox. Zhao Zhuzhen smiled.
The slave immediately puffed up his chest and raised his head, very proud.
"To be obedient is to be obedient, but to be too gluttonous. ”
The slave immediately lowered his head like a deflated ball and continued to eat the pastry.
Zhao Zhuzhen showed his liking, opened his mouth, and seemed to say something, but he seemed to think that it was not good to say that, so he changed his words: "If Brother Fang arrives in the capital, you can go to Zhuzhen Building to sit down, just say that he came with the little fox, and I will definitely arrive soon." ”
"It turns out that my brother Fang is not as good as a fox!" Fang Yun said.
The slave once again raised his head with his chest up, smug and complacent, but quickly reacted and looked at Fang Yun angrily, as if asking what is not as good as a fox?
A flash of melancholy flashed in Zhao Zhuzhen's eyes, and he said, "I'm ...... The family is restrained, there is nothing to relieve boredom, and seeing this little fox so clever, I can't help but like it. ”
"Well, if one day I can't afford to keep a slave, I'll pass it on to you. Fang Yun joked.
The slave froze, the pastry on his little paw fell to the ground, his mouth open, and the crumbs of the pastry inside fell out. It hurriedly spit out all the pastries in its mouth outside the window, and then slapped off the pastry residues on its body with its little paws, and finally covered its mouth and looked at Fang Yun seriously.
"Mmmmmmmmmm
Fang Yun and the three of them laughed together, and Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but laugh: "Don't listen to Xiaoyun scare you, how can he be willing to give you away." ”
"Huh?" the little fox looked at Fang Yun.
"You can eat with confidence, it's no problem to raise you. Fang Yun took another piece of pastry and gave it to the slave.
The slave looked at Fang Yun very contradictory, and then looked at the pastry, looked back and forth four or five times, and finally took the pastry very sadly, and then looked at Fang Yun aggrievedly, as if asking if you won't feed me and give me away, right?
"You just eat!" Fang Yun said with a smile.
The slave pretended to bow his head, seeing that he was about to bite into the pastry, and suddenly raised his head to look at Fang Yun, for fear that Fang Yun would run away while it was eating.
Fang Yun stretched out his finger and nodded at its little head, and said, "People are not big, and their hearts are not small, if you don't eat it, I'll take it." ”
The slave immediately took the pastry away from Fang Yun, took a hard bite, and then glanced at Fang Yun again, and saw that Fang Yun was still there, so he ate it with confidence.
Zhao Zhuzhen on the side couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh, but soon found that his action was inappropriate, and a flush flashed on his face, returning to normal.
When the slave finished eating, Fang Yun took it into his arms and rubbed it indiscriminately, and the slave was not only not angry but happy, thinking that this meant that Fang Yun would not give it away.
There were more and more literati on the second floor, and after a while, six people came over.
"Brother Zhao, we meet again. ”
Fang Yun and the three of them turned their heads, and they saw a handsome and well-mannered young man smiling and greeting.
"Brother Tong. Zhao Zhuzhen returned the salute with a faint smile, but anyone could see her coldness.
The man didn't care, and said, "Brother Zhao, can you introduce this good-looking brother?"
Zhao Zhuzhen showed a strange smile and asked, "You don't know him?"
"I've never met. ”
Zhao Zhuzhen's smile was even stranger, and said, "Then I will officially introduce the two of you, Tong Li, the grandson of Tong Shilang of the Military Department, and the child of Yuhai City." What about this, Jixian Fang Yun, Shengqian Xiucai. ”
The two were stunned and looked at each other, neither of them expecting to meet in this situation.
"Coincidentally, Brother Tong. Fang Yun bowed his hand.
Tong Li immediately laughed and said: "The county test double armor, three poems and the same hui, and the saint before Xiucai, I have admired your name for a long time, and I never thought that I could see it today, it is really a blessing for three lives! If it weren't for the dragon boat race for my Jingguo, I would definitely pull you to drink for a day." ”
Fang Yun smiled and said: "When did I say that I was going to race dragon boats? Yuhai City is full of talents, I am just a talent, where can I be qualified to participate in such an important dragon boat race." Brother Tong laughed. ”
"Ahh In my impression, you Fang Yun is a true hero who kills demons and destroys barbarians for the country and the people, how can you abandon Jingguo and ignore the honor and disgrace and not participate in the dragon boat race?" Tong Li was extremely surprised.
"Brother Tong, you look down on the scholars in Yuhai Mansion, but I don't look down on you. I believe that the scholars of Yuhae Mansion will be able to defeat the literati of Qingguo and win the first place. I will definitely cheer for the literary friends of Yuhai Mansion!" Fang Yun smiled.
Everyone present was silent, and when Fang Yun finished speaking, everyone understood Tong Li's intentions, if Fang Yun participated, he would deduct Fang Yun's hat of looking down on the scholars of Yuhai City, and if he didn't fight, he would accuse him of ignoring the honor and disgrace of Jingguo.
"Brother Fang, what you said is really hurtful. Tong Li said helplessly.
Zhao Zhuzhen sneered: "Tong Li, you don't come to this set." Do you think others can't hear your provocative intentions? I came here just to invite Fang Yun to participate in the dragon boat race, so as to strengthen my great scenery and national prestige, if you spoil my good deeds, you should be careful when you go to the capital in the future. ”
"I ......" Before Tong Li finished speaking, he was interrupted by a lifter.
"Tong Li, it was a great event for Fang Yun to bring me to Yuhai City, don't let me be ashamed of Yuhai City!"
Tong Li's face changed when he heard the voice, and he glanced at everyone and found that many people looked at him very politely.
Tong Sheng was afraid that Fang Yun would rob him of the place in Shushan, but those people didn't care.
