Since I came to Beijing, I have lived in a secluded house and have never 'shown' my face in public, but the rumors and rumors outside have spread lively. It seems that these people are really curious, and they don't seem to care, but they all pricked up their ears and waited for Qingwan to speak.
Qingwan seemed to glance at me, and said proudly: "If it is about others, we should be modest, but my eleventh sister grew up in the mountains since she was a child, and she has not been carefully disciplined by her mother, but she is a white Ding who does not know how to write and ink, and does not know how to count etiquette." It is incomparable to Qingyin, heaven and earth. ”
Mother Mad Stone was a little angry when she heard this, and when she saw me sitting there in peace, she ignored it, so she 'wanted' to get up and argue.
I pulled her sleeve from under the table and said indifferently, "Auntie, what she said is the truth, there is nothing to be angry about." ”
Mother Crazy Stone sat down angrily: "I don't know anything about those sour things, there's nothing to be ashamed of." However, the tone of her speech was just a little more annoying, and it was clearly provocative. ”
After that, he looked at me and smiled.
I vaguely heard that someone at the banquet was openly contradicting her: "The girl who can make the Qi prince and the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion take a fancy to her, why is it so unbearable?" ”
Then some people chimed in, and some people looked at us curiously.
I directly picked out the sesame oil ear shreds on the plate in front of me and ate them sweetly, chewing "creaking" sound.
Mrs. Hou handed me a bowl of orchid 'flower' stewed fish maw in front of her: "The chef in the capital is greasy when cooking, this fish maw is still relatively light, and it should suit the taste of you southerners." ”
The old lady had clearly guessed my identity.
Mad Shi's mother no longer bothered with Qingjuan, let her talk nonsense, and asked the old lady with a smile: "Godmother, why is it so lively today, and you don't even see Huanxi coming out to make trouble?" ”
The old lady was full of red light and smiled brightly: "This Nizi is now spoiled and lawless, and she is afraid that she will make trouble, so that the girls will watch her in the backyard." The 'female' baby, who is just three or four years old, is more naughty than Rouge when she was a child. ”
During the banquet, someone laughed out loud: "Old lady, people's rouge is a real wild boy, you are old and forget, compare it." ”
There was another burst of laughter.
The old lady smiled breathlessly, turned around and instructed her granddaughter-in-law who greeted the guests warmly: "Go and bring Huanxi over to be lively, don't suffocate her." ”
The granddaughter-in-law responded with a smile: "I just said that we spoil her, in the end, you are still the most used to her." ”
After that, he turned around and went to the backyard, but after a while, he hurriedly ran over with a pink carving 'jade', Qi bangs, and a 'female' baby with double buns.
"Old Ancestor, it's not good!"
The 'female' family was already quiet on the table, and everyone listened to her words, put down the cups, and turned their heads to look over.
The old lady said angrily: "What to do recklessly, it is not decent!" ”
The granddaughter-in-law's hand holding the child trembled, obviously frightened: "Ancestor, those slaves don't care, one is not careful, and Huanxi actually swallowed the embroidery 'flower' needle in the needlework dustpan!" ”
"What?!" The old woman stood up suddenly, and the teacup in front of her rolled to the ground and shattered: "Hurry up and bring it over." Let me see. ”
The little girl called Huanxi was bold, flashing a pair of big 'hairy' eyes, not timid to cry, and stretched out her white lotus root arm to find her grandmother's 'milk'.
"My little ancestor," the old lady took her into her arms in distress, and cautiously: "You really swallowed the needle?" ”
Huanxi nodded ignorantly, puzzled, but seeing the nervousness on the old lady's face, she may also be a little scared, and she pursed her mouth aggrievedly, crying with 'desire'.
The old lady was furious: "What about those lazy minions? ”
The granddaughter-in-law trembled and said, "A few of them are still kneeling there, not daring to get up." ”
In the men's seat next to him, he should have heard this movement, and the sound of pushing the cup and changing the lamp gradually stopped. A young man rushed into the 'female' seat in a panic, knocking down the screen that was obscuring him all the way.
I heard the movement and turned my head to see that it was the male guest seat opposite. Liang Ci was sitting upright in the seat of the guest of honor next to the old marquis, and happened to look at this side as well.
The eyes are facing each other.
He seems to be really a little different from when he was in Yangzhou City, although he is still the familiar crescent white, but for no reason there is less than two points of warmth, and more points of cold arrogance and suppressed coldness. Sitting there, although he didn't say a word, his surroundings seemed to be frozen, giving people a kind of coercion and difficulty breathing.
His gaze was still as deep as ink, mysterious as the night, but cold and intimidating.
Like a fawn, I fled in panic. turned his face, but his heart was like a drum, and he couldn't help himself.
The young man, who was supposed to be Huanxi's father, also asked in a panic, "Can you call the doctor in the house?" ”
The young 'woman' holding the child already cried: "If there is no way, how dare you alarm our grandmother?" The doctors are helpless! ”
"How's that for good? My good granddaughter! The old lady hugged the child distressedly, and was so anxious that she burst into tears.
During the banquet, a well-informed person whispered: "Let Huanxi drink a little more sesame oil, if the needle is upright, it can be discharged in two days." ”
Some people also say that eating leek-like vegetables is also useful.
The 'woman' shook her head: "Huanxi said that her throat hurts a little." I was worried that if I got stuck in my throat, I would puncture my esophagus if I swallowed it. ”
Someone immediately stopped him: "Don't do it, it's too risky." ”
For a while, there were different opinions.
Who doesn't know that the old lady has no 'daughter' under her knees, not even a granddaughter, and has been looking forward to a great-grandson 'daughter' for decades, and the whole family is happy, holding it in her mouth, holding it in the palm of her hand, and loving it like a jewel.
Those poor people often use the home remedies 'door', who dares to try it on this little ancestor?
The men's guests also stopped pushing the cups and changing the lamps, and everyone was talking about it, and they were all helpless.
I was glad to see that many people were looking at me, my grandmother, my father's face was full of anxiety, and a hazy mist gradually formed in my round eyes, and I was about to cry.
I sat down in front of the old lady, stood up, and asked the little girl in a low voice, "Huanxi, does your throat hurt a lot?" ”
Huanxi turned to look at me, pouted, and shook his head.
I said to the old lady, "Is there a stronger silk thread in the house?" ”
The old lady looked at me hopefully: "Do you have a way?" ”
I hesitated for a moment, then nodded gently, "I can give it a try." ”
Qingwan stepped over in two steps, her face sank like water, and she scolded me sharply: "Don't make a mistake!" How can your little 'chicken' and 'hairy' medical skills be on the table? ”
I didn't raise my head, and said indifferently: "I know in my heart, at least this method is not risky." ”
The old lady hurriedly ordered her subordinates to rush to fetch it. Soon a thread was 'handed over' to me.
I opened the 'medicine' bag I had with me and picked out a cishi the size of a jujube kernel from it. It was when I was in the Su family in Yangzhou that I had nothing to do, so I asked Hui'er and a few people to polish it for me, and drilled a hole at the top.
At that time, Hui'er and the others thought it was strange, and they heard that Cishi could cure diseases, so they polished some more and brought them on their bodies, or put them in sewing boxes. I didn't expect it to come in handy today.
I cut a piece of silk thread, soaked it in sesame oil in a saucer, threaded it through the magnet hole and tied it, cleaned the magnet in the tea cup, and smiled at Huanxi: "Huanxi, can we two play a game?" ”
Huanxi looked at the Cishi in my hand curiously, and asked angrily, "What game?" ”
"You open your mouth and stick your tongue out, I'll put this stone into your mouth and make a trick for everyone to see, do you say?"
Huanxi instantly became interested, and nodded happily.
I approached and smiled and said, "Then you should be stronger, and if you feel uncomfortable, don't keep your mouth shut, because then the trick will not work?" ”
Huanxi nodded heavily: "Huanxi is the bravest, I'm not afraid." ”
"That's good," I complimented heartily, "let's get started." ”
Rejoicing opened his mouth as I said, and his tongue stretched out, 'exposed' his throat.
I didn't dare to delay at all, and put the silk thread in my hand into Huanxi's throat, and put my left hand on her chin, in case Huanxi would suddenly close her mouth.
Everyone held their breath, stopped talking, and looked at me nervously, silently.
In front of everyone's eyes, I didn't dare to come out, and I concentrated on lifting the thin thread in my hand, feeling an extremely slight stagnation, I don't know if Cishi sucked the embroidery 'flower' needle in Huanxi's throat, and gently lifted it, Huanxi obviously frowned.
I hurriedly reassured her and said, "The little stone must be conjured, and the joy must be persistent." ”
I didn't dare to go too fast, lest I scratch Huanxi's immature throat, so I carefully lifted the thin thread to the mouth of my throat, and sure enough, Cishi sucked a shiny embroidery needle!
Taking out the Cishi and embroidery 'flower' needles from Huanxi's mouth, I breathed a long sigh of relief, only to feel that my back was already drenched with sweat.
Everyone behind him sighed exaggeratedly, as if they had put down a thousand pounds of burden, and the crowd suddenly became lively and discussed.
A slightly older 'woman' beside Mad Shi's mother asked suspiciously: "My only sister, was I 'dazzled' just now, how can I look at this girl and her actions like a deceased old person?" ”
Mad Stone's mother also looked me up and down with some doubt: "Are you talking ......?" Then he stretched out his index finger and pointed to the sky: "I look a little similar, and I was stunned just now." ”
The elderly lady immediately understood, and nodded suspiciously: "The eyebrows and eyes are not like them, but the calm and calm bearing, as well as the confidence that penetrates into the bones, are just the same!" ”
Mad Stone's mother replied very shallowly: "Maybe it's because they're all doctors, right?" It looks a little similar. Then the two of them came closer, whispered 'privately', and could not really hear it again.
