Chinese New Year's Eve kept watch for the night according to the void, changed into new clothes the next morning, followed the eldest sister-in-law Dai Shi around to celebrate the New Year, and then returned to the mansion, it was already noon, after dinner, I slept well, got up and quickly freshened up and changed, and also made an appointment with Dai Qiniang and them to visit the temple Dongmen Street to see if there was a new and desirable crown belt bead flower to buy back.

A few little ladies took the girls and mothers-in-law, walked along the east gate street of the temple for more than an hour, their feet were soft, and they quickly turned into a spacious and rich tea house, asked for a good private room, and were ready to rest their feet and go again. Li Danruo took a few steps behind slowly, beckoned Wei Zi and said in a low voice: "This place is close to Sangjia Wazi, you talk to Mama Shen, ask your mother-in-law to follow you to Sangjia Wazi, and ask Sister Hongyun when she is free, I want to go and see her." Wei Zi agreed, hurriedly turned around and came out, found Mrs. Shen, called two mothers-in-law to follow, and got in the car and went to Sangjiawazi.

Li Danruo came in, Lu Xinglin and the others had already asked for a table full of tea and snacks, and when they saw Li Danruo coming in, they hurriedly beckoned and smiled: "I won't see you in a blink of an eye, I asked you for a bowl of oil tea, and a pot of Ming Qian, look, Sister Xinglin loves you the most, your taste, my sister knows everything!"

"I'm sorry, obviously what you want is eight-treasure tea, but Sister Dai Qi told you that you changed it! I'm not ashamed!" Li Danruo's cousin Liu Ying crossed her face and unceremoniously exposed Lu Xinglin, but Lu Xinglin's face remained unchanged, and she said confidently: "What do you know, I'm going to see if you know the taste of our four ladies, Dai Qi said it before, you still have to say it is Pucha!" It's a shame that you're still cousins, where are you wrong!" Liu Ying's face was slightly red, and she argued with a hint of annoyance: "She used to like Pucha!"

Li Danruo sat down, looked at the two who were arguing again, sighed, and said to Dai Qi Niangzi: "Look at these two, just now I said that my mouth is dry, and I can't say anything, I haven't drunk this tea yet, and my mouth is not dry?" By the way, the bag of Wuyi tea that Sister Dai gave me before me is really fragrant, it is the best to drink this day, and I don't know if the Wuyi tea in this tea shop is good, or else, let's try it in a pot? ”

"Okay, I'll just say, the fourth sister likes too much tea! Look at it, what she likes today is Wuyi tea!" Liu Ying has never been able to argue with Lu Xinglin, who has sharp teeth and sharp mouth, and when she heard Li Danruo's suggestion, she hurriedly clapped her hands and seconded, Lu Xinglin nodded while laughing.

A few people drank tea, ate snacks, talked and laughed, and rested for half an hour before getting up again and preparing to continue shopping.

Out of the private room, Wei Zi had already turned back to wait outside, looking for an opportunity to smile quietly: "I saw the Hongyun girl, said that the past two days were busy, on the third day of the junior high school, their team had to rest for a day, she took a nap in the morning and rested, and asked the girl to come over in the afternoon, she said that she wanted to invite the girl to the Eight Immortals Building for dinner, saying that she was waiting for the girl in the Eight Immortals Building since the morning." ”

"Hmm." Li Danruo smiled and responded, took Wei Zi and others to follow Dai Qiniang and his party, and continued to go shopping and shopping indiscriminately.

On the afternoon of the third day of the first lunar month, Li Danruo only took Wei Zi and Fat Hong, and Shen Mama took two or three mothers-in-law and a few long followers who went out with him, and went to the Eight Immortals Tower.

Dr. Cha Fan led Li Danruo to turn a few corners, and when he arrived in front of a quiet private room, Hongyun heard footsteps, and had already lifted the curtain to probe out, and saw that it was indeed Li Danruo, and hurriedly opened the curtain to signal Li Danruo to come in.

Li Danruo entered the house, went to the cloak, looked left and right at the private room and said with a smile: "I have been to the Eight Immortal Towers once, and it is better to be quiet here." ”

"The cheapest private room upstairs over there costs twenty taels of silver, and here two taels of silver will be, so I will be wronged by the girl." Hongyun said with a smile while letting Li Danruo sit, Li Danruo raised his eyebrows in surprise and said, "It's so expensive, if someone doesn't invite me, I can't afford it!" These two taels of silver are expensive enough, I only have three taels of silver a month, or let's change places, it's too expensive here. ”

Hongyun giggled with laughter: "You little girl, you can talk!" You left me more than eight taels of silver in a purse, plus a good red copper hand stove, I invited you to this one, it only cost two taels of silver, and I still earn a lot!" Li Danruo also laughed: "I was a little reckless last time, I knew that my sister had a lot of silver, but when I saw my sister sick like that, I didn't know what to do, did my sister get sick at all?" Okay, why does my stomach hurt like that? ”

Hongyun was about to speak, when Dr. Cha Fan and Liquor greeted him crisply outside the private room, lifted the curtain and came in, neatly removed the seven or eight plates on his hand and on his arm, turned around and went out again to pick up a slightly boiling red copper pot and came in, placed it in the middle of the table, said 'slow use', and exited the private room.

Hongyun pointed to the pot and smiled: "I love to eat this, it is hot from beginning to end, the early one is hot, and the later one can also be hot, the two of us are talking, and we are not afraid of eating cold." ”

Li Danruo looked around and said with a smile: "It's all my favorite food." The two ate hot for a while, and then Hongyun wiped his hands, looked at Li Danruo and said, "You came out to see me, and you are eating and drinking with me, your mother...... Well, your old lady knows, and she can't punish you? ”

"No, my wife knows, I mean, my wife knows that I am a measured person and will not make random friends." Li Danruo smiled, Hongyun stared at her for a long time before he smiled: "You know that I'm not a bad person?" ”

"Well, where is my sister from?" Li Danruo smiled and diverted the topic, Hongyun picked a few pieces of mutton slices and ate them, and put a few pieces in the pot, glanced at Li Danruo, and said while hot: "It's not good to lie to you, I don't know where I am from, I only have a mother, no father, I have followed my mother around since I was a child, and then my mother died of illness in Yizhou, and married me before she died. ”

Li Danruo was dumbfounded when he heard this, looked at Hongyun and blinked his eyes and said, "How old is my sister?" Just got married? That, that...... Man, is he good to you? Hongyun put down his chopsticks, looked at Li Danruo and said with a wry smile: "People like us, what can we do, my mother is dying, and we have no relatives, what can we do if we don't marry me quickly?" I was fourteen that year, he treated me, it's okay, it can't be bad, I'm young and ignorant in the past few years, I have had a few children, and I don't care, the winter solstice ...... It's also flowing again, the doctor said that I can't have any more children, he is almost forty years old, and he just wants a son wholeheartedly, which is not too much, but I can't give birth, I can't delay him, the previous son, I took out all the silver, borrowed some from Sister Yang, and scraped together two hundred taels of silver for him, so that he could return to his hometown and marry again. ”

Hongyun was silent for a long time before he continued: "He is an honest man and has no ability, he was willing to marry me back then, so that my mother could close my eyes with peace of mind, and helped me bury my mother, I am grateful to him...... You can't let him die. Li Danruo didn't know what to say, so he smiled for a while: "This is called one separate and two wide, each life is happy, how old is my sister, so it's okay, my sister will find a suitable person to marry in the future, my sister's character will be rich and rich in the future." Hongyun laughed 'poof': "Then I don't dare to think about it, anyway, I can still dance now, and there are still people who will see it, and I won't be able to dance in a few years, either like Sister Yang, form a team and buy a few little girls to come back for training, or, if I am lucky, I will be an aunt in An'an, and I will have a place to retire." ”

Li Danruo was speechless when she heard it, Hongyun's plan was indeed the only one, she couldn't have children, she just wanted to marry an ordinary family and work hard, but who would be willing to die because of marrying her?

"Alas!" Li Danruo sighed heavily, and Hongyun smiled at her: "What are you sighing for?" Aren't all people like us coming over like this? My mother is, Sister Yang is, so am I, I am better than them, at least when I was young, I could earn more money than them, and when I was old, I could have a little silver, so there was nothing to be afraid of. ”

"Yes, yes, yes, my sister will earn money in the future, don't let it go in vain, I'll tell my sister about the way to make money......" Li Danruo finally found a topic to talk about, Hongyun smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, okay, look at you, it's more urgent than me, if you want money to make money, then you have to wait for me to earn money first, and now I still owe Sister Yang a hundred taels of silver, fill in this hole first." ”

"Then my sister still invited me to eat in such a place? Two taels of silver are few...... It's a lot, let's go to the Zhouqiao Night Market, eat while shopping, playing, and eating, there is a big dollar of thirty or fifty, how much to eat!" Li Danruo pouted and complained, Hongyun's two eyebrows were raised, and he laughed happily with a 'poof': "You little girl, this is really right!" But now that I'm here, I'll eat and drink well, and I'll have to eat those two taels of silver back!"

Hongyun was very interested, and simply asked for a pot of turbid rice wine, the two of them drank a little drunk, Hongyun smiled: "The Eight Immortals Tower is not far from the Bianhe River, if you are okay, let's go to the river?" My favorite thing is to walk along the Bianhe River. ”

"Good!" Li Danruo happily agreed, put on a cloak, and went out with Hongyun, without a car, the two laughed and went to the Bianhe River side by side, Wei Zi and Shen Mama and others were not far behind, and also went to the Bianhe.
