Chapter Seventy-Four: Face and Ass Comparability
Mingyue pulled Cui'er's footsteps and hurriedly went straight to the jade shop that sold the clams, and quite boldly slapped the two hundred and ten taels of silver in front of the fat head shopkeeper, panting and said: "The shopkeeper, my mother knew that after the clams were sold, she was very angry, and she couldn't afford to be sick. ”
The shopkeeper was full of sympathy, and he was quite enthusiastic to let Mingyue into the private room, brought in a box of jewelry, put it in front of Mingyue, and said with a sad face: "Little brother, you are still late, you just left on the front foot, and a rich and noble son came, and without saying a word, he bought the clam away, and the little one didn't even have time to ask who the son's surname was, but he only knew that this son was good-looking." ”
Mingyue simply asked about the appearance of the son, and her spirit was suddenly on the verge of collapse, the more she listened to the shopkeeper's description, the more she felt that it was Wei Zhixing, this guy wouldn't know about secretly selling clams, right? Mingyue inexplicably felt a cool breeze on the back of her neck, and every nerve ending she blew hurt.
Mingyue and Cui'er had just left, and the shopkeeper pursed his mouth and said mockingly: "Hmph, who doesn't know the appearance of the rich son in the jade shop and pawnshop in Chaoyang County?" I want to redeem it with only ten taels of silver, and I think it's too beautiful. The attitude is the same as the previous humility and sincerity.
Mingyue and the others left the jade shop in frustration, and left three more in a row, all of which were in vain, and the fear after the impulse occupied Mingyue's heart, and she didn't know how to explain to Wei Zhixing.
When he hesitated, he heard a familiar old man shouting "tofu", and when he looked up, it was Li Laohan who started the old business of selling tofu, Mingyue said hello happily, looked at the white tofu fox and said suspiciously: "Uncle, isn't the skill of making tofu unique to Xu Er?" How did you get the secret recipe? ”
The old man shook his head lightly in frustration: "Alas, the old man only knows that his father-in-law needs gypsum to make tofu before his death, but he doesn't know how much he used, and the taste is always unsatisfactory, either the color is yellow, or the taste is astringent, a plate of more than forty pieces of tofu, and in the end only two pieces were sold, the old man is committing a crime."
I am worried about how to explain to my wife when I go back. ”
The old man's face was depressed, this mood was undoubtedly as complicated as raising his daughter and becoming a leftover girl that no one wanted.
Plaster? Is there plaster in this era? Mingyue had a flash of inspiration in her mind, before using brine to order tofu, people used gypsum to order tofu, Mingyue was overjoyed, took out a piece of silver ingot from her arms, handed it to Li Laohan and said: "Uncle, pick up two pieces of frozen tofu for me, and sell me a large piece of gypsum." ”
Li Laohan shook his head again and again and said: "Where does this make it, the girl is my old man's life-saving benefactor, how can there be a reason to be ungrateful and ask for silver." ”
The old man picked up four large pieces of frozen brick-like tofu, and took a large piece of gypsum from his arms that had just been bought and sold, and put it into Mingyue's small basket without saying anything.
Mingyue put the gypsum into her arms, spread the four tofu boards squarely at the bottom of the basket, and insisted on returning the silver to the old man and said: "Uncle, there are a lot of things that can be made with beans, why do you have to make tofu?" You can help me exchange all these ten taels of silver into beans, and bother your nephew to work hard again and send them home. ”
Li Laohan looked at Mingyue hesitantly, and saw that Mingyue's eyes didn't seem to be fake, so he took the silver.
Mingyue touched the white plaster, and her heart was overjoyed, this gypsum was ground into powder, which was as white as a snowflake, not much different from the clams powder, except that the clams powder had a flashing luster.
Mingyue's eyes rolled, and the method of making the gypsum powder shine with a little bit of luster came into her mind in an instant, and she quickly ran to the hospital, bought a piece of alum, and ran to the city gate happily.
At the city gate, because it was not early, the ox cart of the Niu Bo family, the only one in Xiangyang Village, was slowly turning around, preparing to leave for the village.
Mingyue was afraid that she wouldn't be able to catch up with the ox cart, so she dragged her feet that were smashed in the morning, and pulled Xiao Cui limp straight to the ox cart, and there were moths to fight the fire.
As the saying goes, "happiness and sorrow" is not unreasonable, seeing that the ox cart was stopped, a white horse galloped in the direction of the city gate, the momentum was like a rainbow, it can be called a snow meteor, fast as lightning, the person on the horse was in his early twenties, mighty and extraordinary, with an awe-inspiring face, a standard Chinese face, sword eyebrows, bright eyes, long hair tied up high, and a red big coat hunting and flying behind him.
One person and one rider are integrated, so pleasing to the eye, straight to the bottom of the eye, so ---- flying and domineering, wanton, and most importantly, the purse on the man's waist is turned up and down by the horse, and it is not light at first glance.
The centaurs came quickly, Mingyue only had time to push Cui'er aside, and she watched the white horse's figure get bigger and bigger in her pupils, with her in the horse's eyes, and only the horse in her eyes; She couldn't move, the horse couldn't close the momentum, Mingyue's brain flashed with lightning and thunder, this horse can be called a "BMW", she can't dodge, why not come to a suitable posture to touch porcelain, is it a horizontal ---- that can avoid the horse's hooves and look realistic, or a vertical ---- can reduce the horse's head momentum and appear beautiful?
The truth is different from the imagination, Mingyue is thinking about one thing in her head, and it is another thing to really do it, I saw that Mingyue was no different from an ordinary peasant woman, she was so frightened that she closed her eyes, threw the basket, and out of the instinct of self-preservation, she was still holding a piece of green brick-like tofu tightly in her hand, holding it in front of her chest, standing woodenly, and there was a hero's righteousness.
Mingyue was holding her breath and didn't dare to move, only to feel that her body suddenly floated in the air like catkins, the sound of the wind flickered in her ears, one arm was strong and powerful to hold herself tightly in her arms, the man's posture was graceful, sprinkled, and his clothes fluttered, like a fairy descending to earth;
Mingyue in her arms was ragged, her face was pale, stiff as a dead corpse, one hand wrapped around the man's waist, and the other hand was tightly grasping tofu, like a dying rabbit.
Mingyue is fourteen years old, it is when the peach is first grown, it hurts to be pressed by a big palm, and she does it like a cat with hair, instinctively does a thing she doesn't understand afterwards---- picks up the frozen tofu in her hand, and slaps it on the man's cheek without reservation, and the man's cheek shows a square tofu print, which is indescribably funny.
The two of them were in the air, the man was slapped with tofu as hard as a green brick, his hand was loosened, Mingyue was caught off guard, and was thrown directly on the bluestone ground, and the buttocks landed on the ground first, and the originally injured buttocks were hit twice, and his face was a little whiter.
Li Fang looked at Mingyue with a calm face, under this touch, where did he not know the truth that the other party was a woman, the man was clear and a little confused in his heart, thinking that he was a dignified major general in Zhenbei, and the experience of being falsely accused by this kind of woman dressed as a man is not once or twice, almost every time he goes to a county, he has to experience it once, and it is the first time he has been photographed with tofu! Isn't there a new trick added?
The result of being falsely accused is very different every time, it is completely based on his mood at the time, he is in a good mood, it happens that the woman is beautiful, and what does it matter if she is a concubine in the room? Left and right, Li Fang is not a decent gentleman! This is how the fifth and fourteenth aunts in his room were brought in;
If it happened that he was in a bad mood at the time, the woman was a greedy person who could hardly eat, and he wiped his neck with a knife, slapped him into a cripple with a palm, and sent to the army as a military prostitute.
Li Fang's face was as pale as water, and he wanted to see the man in front of him dressed as a woman, how the sloppy and ugly peasant girl fell into himself like a leper dog.
Mingyue obviously didn't follow the development of the plot imagined by Li Fang, she was thrown into a daze, and her anger rushed up, and she couldn't help but look angrily: "Dare to eat this month's tofu?" This month, the moon is the way of heaven, and you will be photographed with tofu to make your ten thousand pear blossoms bloom!! ”
The man pointed to the tofu with a gloomy face and said, "Girl, your tofu is intact, but Li's face is about to be slapped into tofu." ”
Mingyue saw the man's face clearly, the originally handsome face became the scene of the car accident, purple with green, green with black, black with green, and zombies have to fight, I can't help but feel a little guilty in my heart, although I hurt my buttocks, but I hurt my face, is my butt comparable to my face? Moreover, it seems, probably, probably, that the other party also rescued himself from being trampled into a flat tofu by the white horse, although, but, probably, the horse was also his.
Mingyue walked in front of the man as if guilty, lifted the soft wattle, wanted to touch the man's injured red and purple cheeks, and felt inappropriately slipped, and finally fell on the man's chest in a hurry, patted it gently, in the man's unclear gaze, the corners of his mouth were lightly raised, and then he took Cui'er's hand, limped to the ox cart of Niu Bo, and climbed into the car with great effort, and the ox cart "got it", Mingyue sat on the ox cart and bluffed the brick tofu in his hand.
Li Fang frowned slightly, feeling that he was inexplicably confused by this little peasant girl.
The man stretched out his hand and touched the face that was patted, and there was a "hiss" pain, but the palm of his hand was extremely hot, just like the girl's hot and arrogant character, and just like the girl's firm touch. It's like touching a piece of tofu that has just come out of the pot, warm and soft.
The man looked at the palm of his hand in amazement, and suddenly realized that the "eating tofu" that the girl said actually meant this, this "tofu" is really delicious, and it is very different from the beautiful wife and concubine at home, Brother Jiang Dujiang is honest and does not deceive me, sure enough, the wife is not as good as a concubine, the concubine is not as good as stealing, stealing is better than stealing, this taste, tsk......
Thinking of this, the man involuntarily touched his chest, his face couldn't help but become colorful, extremely weird, there, it seemed to be "eaten" back by the girl, and he was "eaten" unconscious, no wonder the girl smiled with an unclear meaning when she left, and waved the tofu in her hand to him arrogantly.
Li Fang frowned, don't let him see tofu again, = hear tofu in the future, and don't let him see the arrogant peasant girl again, he will, can't help but have the urge to beat people into tofu and stew them into tofu.
A team of horses galloped behind him, and when they arrived in front of the man, they dismounted one after another, and saluted the man respectfully: "General, the Li family army was brought out by you and the old general, how can the small one catch up with you?" Although the military needs are urgent, you must also pay attention to your whereabouts and safety, ah......."
When the gray-clothed young man saw the red marks on Li Fang's face, he immediately panicked, and said to his subordinates on one side: "Go and buy a piece of hot tofu for the young general to bind his wounds and reduce swelling......
As soon as the young man's voice fell, his body had been kicked by Li Fang and flew in the air, like a rippling paper kite in the air, the young man secretly said in his heart, the young general really deserved to be a young general, and he saw through his true intentions at a glance, and he heard that the tofu in Chaoyang County was famous all over the world in northern Xinjiang, and he just wanted to eat a piece and a half in the name of the young general's injury and swelling, but he didn't expect the young general to see through the mystery at a glance, sure enough, it was powerful enough.
