Chapter 6: Two of the most fun things in the world
"Daddy......" I said.
"You still know I'm your father!" My father glanced at me coldly, and his tone was rather stern.
"You're sixteen years old, how can you still be ignorant when you're such a big person! In the past few days, you should go back to your room immediately, read your books, write your words, and I will come to check it later! ”
I just messed around again, I would always be a cat in front of my father, and now I had to listen silently, and I didn't dare to argue with half a word.
Lan Youquan on the side saw that I had suffered this dumb loss, and seemed to want to make a round, only to hear him interject: "Master, are you going out?" ”
My father looked a little worried, nodded and said, "Yes! Although the predicament set up by the militia groups blocking the road has been resolved, after all, it has been delayed for a day. Jiangxi Heshun Pharmaceutical Store is a regular customer, and the supply cannot be delayed at all. ”
"I thought about it for a long time, and I thought that the new goods over there in the herb shop had not yet been tasted, so I must not make any more mistakes, so I decided to go and have a look!"
Lan Youquan comforted on the side: "Master, since Zhong Guangyao's side has made it clear, the Dongliu People's League will definitely not obstruct it more!" Please rest assured, sir! ”
"Well," my father nodded, and then ordered: "In the past few days, the ** attack on Nanwu has disturbed, I'm afraid that there will be nothing to do!" When I went out, the door of the house was closed, and I was not allowed to go out. ”
As soon as I heard that the door of the house was closed and I was not allowed to go out, I thought that I was going to run out of soup when I thought of going back to Dongliu, and I couldn't help but become anxious, and said, "Dad, I ...... it."
"Shut up!" My dad pointed at me and said, "Especially you, don't go out." ”
"Lan Youquan!"
"Sir." Lan Youquan hurriedly answered.
"The young master is confined in the study today, except for pen, ink, paper, inkstone and three meals of tea, don't put a fly in for me!" My dad said this and turned around and left.
At this time, the mule cart at the door was already ready, and Tian Ding Tiancai was already waiting aside, only to see my father boarding the car in two steps, a cat, a curtain was removed, the movement was fast, there was no old age, and I didn't even give half a minute of space to speak, until the sound of yo ho, the dust rolled, and a moment was gone.
I was left with my mouth wide open and still in a daze.
"Yes, sir, don't worry! Slow down, sir! ”
Lan Youquan bowed deeply to the carriage, then slowly turned his head and gestured at me with a smile.
"Young Master, please!"
Only then did I come back to my senses, and said angrily: "Uncle Quan, you belong to the dragon!" ”
Lan Youquan laughed when he heard it.
"Yo he, young master, you are still a fortune teller! Your uncle and I are really dragons! ”
"Yes, you're a dragon......" I stuck out my tongue and said angrily, "You're a chameleon!" You wallgrass! Whichever side you are stronger, you will fall! ”
These words sprayed Lan Youquan's face, but he was not angry, he looked like he was not smiling, and I had no choice but to go back to the study and stay.
The window of my study is facing a small flower garden in the backyard, sparsely planted with a few stalks and mints.
In September, the auspicious stalk is in bloom, poking its head out of the green shallow grass, the light purple one by one, the flowers are like small bells swaying in the wind, only there is no crisp sound of silver bells, so it is silent and quiet like a delicate picture.
It's a pity that such a small scene, I am not in the mood at this time.
The door of the study was locked, I ate two pieces of osmanthus cake in a daze, drank half a pot of tea, and stood at the window with a flower brocade fan to fan the wind for a long time, and finally put the gas down, at this time my eyes suddenly lit up!
I saw a girl holding a basket from the stone garden on the side, bending down to pick up in the small flower garden, her face hung a shallow smile, the original crescent-colored short jacket on her body had already been washed white, slightly wide, a few patches dotted in between, simple and neat.
Her cuffs had long been rolled up high, and her exposed arms, although a little dark, were agile and quick, and I saw her fingers wander between the flowers, and in a moment a few green leaves fell into the basket, up and down, and for a time it was beautiful.
A ghost idea came to me in my mind, and I laughed and exclaimed, "Alas! Alas! Alan! ”
It turned out that this girl was Alain, who had caused me to chop firewood all night two days ago.
I saw that she looked back in a daze, looked around for a while, and found me standing at the study window, half surprised, tilted her head and pointed at herself, and asked, "Young master?" Are you calling me? ”
I shook my fan, nodded and smiled, "yes! What are you doing? ”
Alain looked down at the contents of the basket and smiled sweetly at me.
"Young master, I'll pick some mint and go back, I can use it in the church, my mother said it can repel mosquitoes!"
I looked left and right for a moment, and when I saw that there was no one else waiting around, I beckoned to Alain, "Come here!" Come under my window! ”
I'm also the eldest young master of the Lu family! The young master spoke, how dare the subordinates not listen?
I saw this little girl coming timidly with a basket, and I swayed with a fan with a smile on my face, muttering: "Hey, come here, come here......"
When Alain walked to my window, I put away my smiling face, changed my fierce expression, pointed at her and scolded: "Okay, you Alain!" How dare you steal from your house! ”
Alan was obviously frightened by my move, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "Young Master! I just picked some mint, I didn't steal anything from home! ”
"You're still hard-mouthed!"
I said angrily, "Let me ask you, is this yard my home?" ”
Alain bowed his head and replied, "Yes." ”
I asked again, "Is the yard my own?" ”
Alain replied, "Yes." ”
I asked again, "Then did you pick these mints with my permission?" ”
"......No," Alain hurriedly argued, "It's just that these mints are grown in the garden, and they have rotted a lot after the rain a few days ago!" I saw that it was a pity, so I picked some! ”
"Nonsense! If you take my family's belongings without permission, you are stealing! What is the sin? ”
I don't forgive people at all, but I secretly rejoice in my heart, okay! Let you little girl chop the wood that I have been chopping all night, and now the retribution is coming!
Alan knew that he was at a loss, and he couldn't go at this time, and he couldn't help but twist and pinch.
"The slave and maid are convicted ......"
I snickered when I saw it, but I pretended to be serious and said, "It's not that you have to say that you are guilty...... I said I'll give you permission to pick mint, won't you? ”
Alan bowed his head and said, "Please allow the slave to pick some mint, thank the slave and the young master......"
"And how are you going to thank me?" I smiled and looked harmless, staring closely at the little lamb that had strayed into the wolves.
Alain didn't know how to answer, and her timid little face was breathless, only to see her keep shaking her head, looking flustered.
I gloated on the sidelines, grinning and saying, "Then you can make a promise...... Hey hey ......"
The corners of his mouth were all dripping to the ground.
As soon as Alan heard this, two red glows flew up his cheeks, and his face was suddenly on fire!
"Okay......" I put the slap on my lips and smiled, "I'm kidding!" Don't be angry! ”
When Alan heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes looked at me, and he whispered in his heart: "Young master, you are really, just make fun of slaves!" ”
I regained my seriousness and whispered, "Alain, do me a favor!" ”
Alain was a little surprised when he heard me say this, but he still replied in a proper manner.
"Young master, if you have something, just tell me!"
I thought for a moment before asking, "You've been a helper in the backyard for a few days, right?" There's a back door in that room, right? ”
Alan nodded and replied: "In order to facilitate the entry and exit of fruits, vegetables and poultry on weekdays, and also to clean up the sewer and swill, there is indeed a back door in the room. I don't know what you're going to do, young master? ”
"Let me out today! I'm going to Dongliu to find my second uncle! I said seriously.
"Huh?" Alain was stunned for a while, and then kept shaking his head, only to hear her say to herself, "No, no...... Uncle Quan explained that you are not allowed to go out in the house today! Say it's the master's order! Young master, you must not go out! ”
"Wait for me a while," I ordered, and turned back into the house and tinkered for a while before coming out, and when I got back to the window, I took a bottle of wine in each hand, and without saying a word handed it to Alain.
Alain took a closer look, and saw some colorful colored paper on the bottle, which Alain had never seen before, but she knew the words on it.
"Star brand toilet water." She read it word for word.
That's when I spoke: "Didn't you just pick mint to repel mosquitoes?" This is flower water, much stronger than mint leaves, apply some on the skin, and the mosquitoes dare not infestation! ”
Alain's eyes widened, and the first time he saw something like this, he thought it was too rare.
"All these toilet water are for you! I know you need it! ”
Alain was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly took the gift I handed over, but as soon as the thing arrived in her hand, she felt that something was wrong, and before she could ask, I had already preemptively said: "The thing is for you...... As long as you help me out! ”
Alan didn't know what to do with the things, so he had to keep shaking his head, looking very entangled.
"No, no, the slave and maid let the young master out, and the old lady will punish him if she knows it!"
I asked, "Then Alain, do you say that I am good to you on weekdays?" ”
Alain lowered his head, his eyes flickering.
"The slave and maid were born poor, and they worked as helpers in the Lu Mansion with Ah Niang on weekdays. Over the years, the young master has been very good to the slaves and maids, and the Lu Mansion has been very good to the slaves and maids, and the slaves and maids know it in their hearts. ”
These words are from her heart, and they are sincere and moving.
I nodded and said, "In that case, you help me out today!" All these years of kindness will be repaid! Take these things! Even if it's for Aunt Han, you can use it in your nursery! ”
Alain was still hesitating, but I had already rolled up my sleeves, jumped down through the window, and pulled Alain to hide in the garden for a while, and then ran to the house when I saw that there was no one around.
After half a pillar of incense, the two of us had slipped out the back door of the room. At this time, I had changed into a peasant dress, Alan handed me a package, I touched it and found that it was Fang Cai's two bottles of toilet water, and suddenly one head and two big, and asked in wonder, "Didn't I give it to you?" Why don't you put it away? ”
Alain shook his head and said something that was extraordinarily earnest.
"The slave and maid are confused, no matter how good these things are, how can they catch up with the kindness of the old lady and the young master! The slave doesn't dare to take it, so the young master should take it back! ”
I shook my head and said with a dumb smile, "Really...... I've never seen such a sincere girl like you in the Lu Mansion! "But seeing that the things had been wrapped, and both of us had already left the house, and we had nowhere to place them if we didn't collect them, I didn't think about him anymore, and I carried the burden in a moment.
I was about to say goodbye to Alain, but I saw this little girl biting a piece of coarse cloth, free hands, three times and two times to coil up the braid on her head, and then tie it tightly with a coarse cloth, bent down to pick up a firewood knife, pinned to the waist, these movements are clever and decisive, so that my eyes suddenly lit up, and I was stunned for a long time before asking: "I said Alain, what are you going to do?" ”
Alan said: "Uncle Fang said that the ** has been rampant in the past few days, and it must be not smooth on this road!" Since you were brought out by me privately, I can't get out of it, I have to follow you, young master, no matter what, I have to protect the young master! ”
"Make sure you're shit!" I scratched Alain's little upturned nose fiercely, shook my head and smiled, "You girl has just reached the height of my shoulders!" The heart is bigger than the sky! ”
Alain smiled and said no more, she knew that I would not refuse.
After tidying up, we walked along the wall of the Lu family's backyard, and when we reached the corner and bent into the fork, I found a banyan tree, and there were several tea bowls in the tea shop under the banyan tree.
An eighty-year-old man was squatting in the shade of a tree to cool off, and he was grinning while shaking a big fan. When the old man saw Alain, he greeted him with a big grin: "Yo! Miss Alain, are you finished? ”
"Yes! Grandpa Liang! Alain smiled sweetly.
This Uncle Liang pointed the pu fan behind the banyan tree, smashed his mouth and said, "The mule cart is here!" Up and down! Girl, just take it! ”
Alan nodded and thanked him: "Thank you, Grandpa Liang!" "I went around behind the tree and saw that there was a mule cart that was being tethered to a branch, and it was great to have a mule cart!
I was overjoyed and said to Alain, "You've done me a great favor this time!" You can save an hour! You can send me to the bottom of the stone trail! ”
Alain smiled sweetly, and untied the reins in three or two clicks.
The mule in front of him was "whirring" and snorting, and seemed to be very happy to see his master.
At this time, I was dressed as a farmer, and Uncle Liang couldn't tell who it was, so he asked in surprise: "Miss Alain, who is this?" ”
Alan was not easy to pick, so he had to bow his head and reply: "If you go back to grandpa, this is my cousin!" ”
Uncle Liang had some ears behind his ears, and he couldn't hear clearly, and said in a confused way: "Oh...... It's your husband! ”
Alan suddenly blushed with shame, and hurriedly defended: "Grandpa, this is my cousin!" Go back to your hometown today to dry the grain! ”
Uncle Liang was confused when he heard it, and replied even more confusedly: "Oh, you guys go home and give birth to dolls!" ”
"That's a good idea! Give birth early! Give birth early! Blessed with many children! ”
These few words of nonsense stomped Alain's feet in shame, and I secretly glanced at her, and saw her blushing and babbling, where do I know what she is talking about!
I touched my nose and snorted, forcing my smile to laugh out loud.
There are two things in the world that are the most fun, one is a red-faced girl, and the other is what?
It's a blushing girl!
Thinking of this, I felt a bad water in my stomach again.
When she turned to me, I hurriedly grabbed the mule and shouted, "What! I said you mule is not authentic! ”
Alan was puzzled for a while, and asked me in surprise: "Why is this mule not authentic?" ”
I clung to the beast's ear and shouted, "You've had two children!" The one in our family can't even let out a fart! ”
I smiled and glanced at Alain.
Alain was ashamed of a mess, neither laughing, nor crying, the tender pink mouth was tightly pursed, but he couldn't help his own pair of lacquer-like eyes, which were already like a pool of autumn water, and I stirred up the spring heart!
