Chapter 10 Goodbye Lin Mosheng
I woke up early the next day, because my mother had 'handed over' in advance and didn't have to go over to greet her, I wanted to take a nap, Lan'er whispered to me twice at the 'door', I retracted my head into the quilt, pretending not to hear. Please search to see the most complete! Later, she simply entered the house: "Miss, Miss Qingqing, and a few of them are already waiting for you in the courtyard, saying that they have made an appointment to go to the shop together." ”
I reluctantly stuck my head out: "What time is this, how can it be so early?" ”
Lan'er took my clothes over: "I finally have a chance to go out, of course it will be earlier!" Who is in the mood to sleep in? ”
I just remembered that unlike me, they rarely had the opportunity to go out, and they were naturally fresh. I was embarrassed to delay their time any longer, so I hurriedly put on my clothes, and as soon as I pulled the 'door' of the house, I felt a fragrant breeze blowing on my face.
Qingqing, Qingchou, Qinglian, and Qingyin, obviously dressed up with great care, or heavy makeup or light daisy, beads and greenery, rings and dingdong, each brought a portable maid, standing in the yard and laughing.
"Why don't you go and sit in the house, it's cold in the morning." I asked, "Keeping the sisters waiting." ”
Seeing me come out, Qingqing pulled me up: "Oh, Miss, why are you not in such a hurry, the sun is three poles high." ”
"Didn't you eat breakfast? It's not breakfast yet. "I 'rubbed' and 'rubbed' sleepy eyes, and yawned without hesitation.
"What else to eat for breakfast, let's go to the street to eat crystal buns, wonton noodles, mash sweet rice balls, hibiscus glutinous rice 'chicken'." Qing Chou also swept away yesterday's dignified and quiet, and was extremely excited, and Qing Lian next to her was also so excited that her face was red.
"Okay, I'll leave right away." I turned my head and called Xuan'er: "Xuan'er, have you arranged the things in the yard?" ”
Lan'er chased out of the house with a cloth towel: "Miss, you haven't dressed up yet!" I took the towel and wiped my face and threw it back to her: "That's it,"
"But your hair is still a mess!"
"Just sort it out in the car in a while, Xuan'er, Xuan'er!"
Xuan'er ran out of the house in response: "Miss, there have been a lot of things in the yard in the past two days, the housekeeper asked me to go to him for a while to register for the newcomer's expenses, why don't you let Lan'er go with you." ”
When Lan'er heard this, she naturally couldn't ask for it, her eyes were shining excitedly, and she couldn't wait to follow me out of the yard.
"Huh? What about Qingyin? Qingqing asked when he was about to leave the 'door': "I was so anxious just now, why can't I see anyone in a blink of an eye?" Qingyin, Qingyin! ”
"It's coming, it's coming! What is it called? Qing Yin walked out of her room impatiently: "The clothes are not suitable, I'll go to the house to tidy up." ”
"It's just a trip to the store, you see you dressed like a 'flower', be careful to hook the soul of a handsome boy." Qingqing joked with a smile.
"You damn girl, talking nonsense, be careful I tear your mouth apart!" Qingyin lifted the hem of her skirt and chased after her, Qingqing hid in Tibet among us, and was chased out of breath, but her mouth was not idle: "Last time, I overheard my grandmother and mother discussing your family affairs, good sister, I will tell you what they said when you call 'good sister'." ”
"You also said that you are much older than me, and you will marry someone first, and if you marry out, we will live in peace." Qingyin was so ashamed that her face was flushed, and she couldn't catch Qingqing in the crowd, so she was so anxious that she stomped her feet.
Qingchou smiled and played a round game: "Besides, my sister is going to cry urgently, so my sister will spare her." ”
I looked at Qingqing with some envy in my heart, it was obvious that her 'sex' was warm and lively, and her popularity among the sisters was excellent. Even in the face of Qingyin's arrogant and unreasonable temper, he can talk and laugh freely, and 'insert' the subject to make jokes.
Yesterday, Lan'er and the others almost walked around the backyard with snacks, and they came back after dark. The house is dull, and this kind of excitement has long spread throughout the courtyards, which naturally involves the disputes in the kitchen this afternoon, and Qingqing and the others know it.
Qingyin was obviously still angry with me, frolicking with Qingqing, and when she passed by my side, she deliberately bumped into me with her arm, and I avoided it silently, too lazy to worry about her, not wanting to spoil the lively atmosphere that Qingqing had bothered to create, which swept everyone's interest.
Talking and laughing, I went out of the backyard, got on the green sedan chair, and the maid followed him out of the house. The carriage was already waiting at the entrance of the 'gate' of the house, a total of three large carriages with copper horns and blue paint, Yang Bo did not dare to be too ostentatious when he went to Yunwu Mountain to pick me up, the carriage was simple but comfortable. These three carriages are wrapped in brocade, tassels hang drapes, the carriage is 'fine' carved with a unicorn to send blessings, pedal auspicious cloud patterns, and the corners are decorated with colorful bats, pomegranates, Buddha's hands and other auspicious copper paintings. There is a glazed palace lamp hanging from each corner of the carriage, and the tassels of the palace lamp are decorated with several 'exquisite' bells, which jingle with the restless hooves of the horses.
The servants moved the footstool and put it away, and Qingyin got into the first carriage first. Qingqing took my hand and sat in the second car, Qingchou and Qinglian followed, lowered the curtain, and the maid followed her master to sit in front of the car, and the coachman raised his horsewhip and walked forward.
The carriage is covered with a long 'hair' blanket with a peony pattern, the four walls are wrapped with splendid cushions, and several embroidered butterfly 'flower' pillows are neatly stacked in the corners. In the center of the carriage is a foldable table, on which is placed a set of blue and white porcelain tea sets, and a hollow gilt aromatherapy stove is burned, which is extremely luxurious.
When I looked at the decoration of the carriage, Qingqing was lifting the corner of the curtain on the window and looking out excitedly: "I usually go out with my mother, and I have to be at a medium distance, and I can't peek out, saying that it is unseemly, which makes my heart itch." Look, it's so lively, that person is so interesting, and what's the colorful 'color' on the straw pole? ”
I looked out the window: "That's a noodle man, made of oil flour." ”
Her face was full of novelty: "There are so many fun things, I must enjoy it today, and eat all the things I usually want to eat." She suddenly turned her head and asked me strangely, "Don't you like it?" Why doesn't you seem to be in much interest, could it be that you 'tricked' Qingyin, lost her face and were still angry, and you were still sulking? ”
I glanced out of the car, and although the sun was rising, the streets were already bustling, the roadside shops were already open, and the men were enthusiastically greeting pedestrians. All kinds of craftsmen use their "fine" craftsmanship to attract children frolicking on the street. The warm sun gilded the whole street with a gentle golden 'color'.
"How could I bother with her? When I was in Jinling, every few days, the master would take me down the mountain to visit the villagers in Jinling City, which was commonplace. ”
"Oh? Your master's medical skills must be very good, Qing'an, will you also see a doctor? Qingqing looked at me with a wink: "I really envy you, unlike us, I grew up in a cage since I was a child, and after I got married, I changed to another cage, and I never really saw the world outside, pitiful." ”
I smiled: "That's when you've never seen those poor children, unclothed, hungry and cold, and they want to be a bird to be fed." ”
Qingqing shrunk her neck, looking playful and cute: "At a young age, you are old-fashioned when you speak." I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
While chatting, the carriage slowly stopped, and the maid said crisply outside the carriage: "Miss, it's already here." "When the words fell, the curtain of the 'door' embroidered with the word "Su" was opened, and Lan'er had already jumped out of the carriage and stretched out her hand to me. I bent down and lifted the hem of my skirt, held her hand, and jumped out of the car, Lan'er whispered: "Out of the 'door', no better than in the yard, Miss should pay attention to her image." ”
I turned around, Qingqing was holding the maid's hand, carefully stepping on the footstool, and tentatively walked down, like a weak willow supporting the wind. I stuck out my tongue secretly: "Next time I must pretend to be a little bit like this." ”
Lan'er shook her head helplessly and helped me straighten my skirt.
A guy in the store immediately greeted him with a smile: "A few young ladies are early, please come inside, the best silk and satin ready-to-wear has been prepared according to orders." ”
Qing Yin nodded with satisfaction and raised her chin, "Okay, naturally there is a reward." ”
Qing Chou glanced inside and asked, "Where are you shopkeepers Li?" Why don't you see him come out to say hello? ”
Xiao Er raised his chin to the other side of the street: "There was a strange person there yesterday, and the shopkeeper went to see the excitement." ”
Qingqing raised his hand at the group of people around the other side of the avenue: "Shopkeeper Li, you don't want to watch the store do business, what are you running around?" Be careful, I'll go to my grandmother and file a complaint against you. ”
There was a rich man in his fifties who stood up straight and turned his head, and when he saw us, he ran all the way with a smile on his face, and his 'flesh' all over his body was shaking.
The moment he got up and got out of the way, I could clearly see the people gathered around the crowd, the sky was clear and the silver silk brocade robe was like ink hair draped casually over the broad shoulders, and the long eyebrows flew obliquely into the temples, gentle and elegant. He was sitting upright on the ground, his eyes closed, completely oblivious to the noise around him.
Although it was only in an instant, I already recognized that person, it was Lin Mosheng, Lin Gongzi, who saved me when the mountain road was frightened.
Qingqing also looked left and right there: "Shopkeeper Li, what are you looking at?" ”
Shopkeeper Li laughed twice: "I've seen a few young ladies." There was a boy who came there yesterday afternoon, and he looked very handsome, but he was a little strange. He took a black dagger and sold it there, and opened his mouth for a thousand taels of silver. provoked a lot of people to watch jokes there, some people teased him, bargained with him, and he ignored them. Someone offered him fifty taels today, and we are persuading him there, and after he knows some people, he will sell them, and the price is not low. But he insisted on refusing, saying that it was a family heirloom, and he did not dare to sell it cheaply. ”
"I guess I'm having some kind of trouble, right?" Qing said timidly.
"It's not, I heard that I didn't meet my relatives, and I was robbed by thieves." Shopkeeper Li said.
I asked Lan'er behind me in a low voice, "How many silver taels did we bring with us when we went out?" ”
Lan'er whispered in my ear: "I'm afraid that Miss has a favorite jewelry, so I brought more, about two hundred taels." ”
"Give it all to me."
Lan'er took out a few silver tickets from the embroidered 'flower' purse: "This is two hundred taels of silver tickets, and there are also some scattered silver taels." ”
"Forget the silver," I groaned for a moment, thinking that after all, I was not very familiar with Qingqing, and it was always bad to borrow money, so I handed all the silver tickets to Shopkeeper Li: "Shopkeeper Li, that person is an old friend of mine, it is not convenient for me to come forward, please 'hand' these two hundred taels of silver tickets to him." Tell him that I want his dagger, but I don't have enough silver on me, this is a deposit, and let him take the dagger to Su Mansion in the afternoon to get it. ”
Shopkeeper Li took the silver ticket, obviously a little suspicious, I just returned to Yangzhou, how can there be an old friend: "This must be Miss Eleven, I tell you the truth, did you buy it?" ”
"Oh, no, you can just say that the Su family bought it." I said hurriedly.
Shopkeeper Li specializes in human feelings, nodded in response, turned around and left. I was worried that Lin Gongzi would be embarrassed to see it, so I hurriedly hid in the store.
Shopkeeper Li did things neatly, but after a while, he returned to the store, holding the dagger in his hand, and praised it: "It looks inconspicuous, but it is quite sharp, not like ordinary ironware, it is indeed a good product." Miss, the boy said that he trusted the Su family, so he 'handed over' the dagger to me first, and the rest of the silver was picked up at noon. ”
I took the dagger in the hand of the shopkeeper Li, the whole body is black and gold, the shape is simple and simple, the tentacles are cold, heavy, but it is quite handy in the palm of the hand, and it is small and sharp, it can be carried closely, and I can't help but love it a little.
