Chapter 368: Pingshui Meets
Desheng said a few words in the old grandmother's ear with an embarrassed face, and the old grandmother shook her head and scolded without thinking about it, "No, the master likes to be quiet, how can you let outsiders in?" It's not like we can't afford to eat! ”
Rui Xue heard this, guessed something, and recruited Desheng to come in and ask carefully, it turned out that the brothers and sisters downstairs, looking at the clothes are all Jianghu people, the lobby is noisy, the woman doesn't like it, she must find a quiet place to eat, and even almost pulled out a sword to threaten, forcing the shopkeeper Liu to can't, so he wants to add two screens in their box, and set up a small table, he didn't dare to come up to discuss, so he begged Desheng to save him from danger.
Convenient for others is convenient for themselves, they just eat a meal and leave, but they won't cause anything, Rui Xue thought about it, and nodded in agreement.
Shopkeeper Liu quickly ran up, saluted and thanked him, and then personally moved two nanmu screens in, blocking Ruixue and their table tightly, and installed a small square table and two high-backed chairs in the remaining half of the place.
Fortunately, the room is very spacious, and the windows are also four, so this arrangement is not too crowded.
Rui Xue put on a cloak and continued to breastfeed the child, Jian Wu handed over Brother Xiao to the old grandmother, and then stood at the entrance of the screen with her head down, Rui Xue smiled slightly, and gossiped with the old mother again.
The old mother was worried about going to the bottom of the archway to grab a handful of earthen purses and hang them on the side of the cradle of filial piety, but Rui Xue felt that it was not clean, so she stopped her, but said that in the future, it would be good to let her son do business or even be a farmer.
As soon as the two of them changed their filial piety brother to their arms to breastfeed, they heard the sound of movement outside the door, and soon, the shopkeeper Liu led the two of them in and said, "Two guest officers, this is the cleanest place that the small one can vacate, don't dislike it, sit down for a while, and the little one will go to Zhang Luo for dinner." ”
Jian Wu glanced up, the two people who entered the door, the man in front was only twenty-four or five years old, wearing a set of stone blue short cotton clothes and pants, a palm-wide black belt to tie the waist, burly but not clumsy, eyebrows and handsome, eyes open and closed.
The woman who is one step behind, but she is a girl who has not come out of the cabinet, at the age of seventeen or eighteen, wearing a set of red dresses, the skirt is a little short, revealing a pair of deerskin boots on her feet, a black hair combed with a double ring, wrapped in a blue ribbon, her appearance is delicate, willow eyebrows and apricot eyes, she must have been exposed to the sun all year round, and her complexion is slightly dark, but she has a three-point more neat appearance than ordinary women.
Both of them carried a bag on their backs, and a long sword was hung on their waists, as Shopkeeper Liu said, they were people from the rivers and lakes who were walking.
While Jian Wu looked at each other, the brother and sister also guessed who was in the screen, the woman frowned, as if she was a little dissatisfied that the screen accounted for most of it, and they only had a small table, but the man was a polite one, and he didn't wait for his sister to speak, so he hugged his fists and thanked him, "I'm tired of the shopkeeper, just now my sister was impulsive and scared the shopkeeper, and I hope the shopkeeper won't be surprised." ”
Shopkeeper Liu muttered to himself in his heart, when she drew her sword just now, she didn't see you stop her, but now that there is a quiet place, she said so, if not, is he going to fall to the ground. However, how dare he say it in his heart, squeezed a smile and said, "Don't dare, don't dare." ”
Then he turned to the screen and said, "Thank you for the convenience, little grateful." ”
Rui Xue replied lightly, "Shopkeeper Liu is polite, he is all out of the house, and it is convenient for him to be with others." ”
Shopkeeper Liu bowed gratefully, and then hurriedly went downstairs.
The woman pouted, glanced at the screen, and said, "I took up most of the room, squeezed us in the corner, and said it was convenient to be with people?" ”
The man glared at the girl fiercely, and said slightly annoyed, "Shut up, if you are so willful again, I will send you home immediately, and I will never take you out for a walk in the future." ”
Seeing that her brother was angry, the woman immediately stepped forward to pour tea for him, smiled and flattered, "Don't be angry, eldest brother, Jiu'er just said casually, eldest brother, don't throw Jiu'er." ”
The girl is coquettish, and the elder brother can rarely ignore it, and sure enough, the man went to anger, pulled her to sit down, poured her a cup of tea, and said, "Going out is different from being at home, you have to restrain some temper." ”
"Got it." The girl named Jiu'er nodded obediently, which made the elder brother sigh again, "You girl, I really shouldn't have taken you out, if you arrive... That's it, let's talk about it then. ”
Rui Xue and the old lady were in the screen, listening to their brother and sister talking, looking at each other, they were completely relieved, although this sister is more delicate, but the brother is reasonable, eating in the same room, presumably there will be no trouble.
Soon the two children were full, each was held up, burped twice, raised their little hands and rubbed their eyes, and then fell asleep again.
The old lady smiled and said, "The little master and the little lady are really good to serve, sleep when they are full, and rarely cry at night, which is really worry-free." ”
Rui Xue hugged her filial brother and said with some distress, "Mama, do you think it is because you are tired of walking, and the two children are tired?" ”
The old lady shook her head, "Miss, don't worry, children are like this until they are half a year old, and when they are older, they should find someone to play with." ”
"That's good."
Jiu'er outside the screen heard that there was a child, and he was curious, so he wanted to get up and go in to have a look, and was so frightened by his brother's eyes that he sat down again.
Soon, Niu Niu and Qin Xin each ran up with a handful of snacks and small playthings, and as soon as they opened the door, they were stunned for a moment when they saw the big changes in the room, and Jian Wu said, "Second Miss be quiet, little young master and little miss are asleep." ”
"Oh," Niuniu replied, swallowing the question she was about to leave, and entered the screen with the heart of the piano, and went straight to her sister.
Rui Xue guessed what she was going to ask, so she shook her head with a smile and said, "After eating, we are about to hurry, but it's only been two quarters of an hour." ”
Niuniu pouted, and began to show her sister her "harvest", which was nothing more than some sugar people, fried chestnuts and some snacks, Rui Xue picked up a small snack and ate it, the taste was really good, praised two sentences, smiled as if she made it herself, and took it to the old grandmother to taste.
Caiyun Caiyue and Xiao Cui'er, the front and rear feet also came up with a tray, and they saw the brother and sister downstairs just now, but they were not much surprised, but they just let go of their feet and entered the screen.
Amber prescribes a tonic, always drink a bowl before meals every day, although it is bitter and difficult to swallow, but Rui Xue is already used to it, but he feels that he has to boil medicine on the road, which is very troublesome, and he wants to break some time, but everyone is not allowed.
Caiyun took the medicine bowl and said with a smile, "Madam, the medicine is not hot, you can drink it." ”
Qin Xin immediately found the candied fruit she had just bought, and pushed it in front of the master, Rui Xue looked at the old grandmother in addition to the medicinal soup, and a small bowl of steamed egg custard, and said with a smile, "Caiyun is getting more and more careful, Mama ate the egg custard first, and then drank the medicinal soup to save her stomach from being uncomfortable." ”
The old lady patted Caiyun's hand and thanked her, "Let the cloud girl suffer." ”
Caiyun blushed, waved his hand and said, "Caiyue and Xiao Cui'er also helped to boil the medicine together." ”
Rui Xue smiled, "It's all right, sit down and rest for a while, you have to hurry after eating." ”
The old mother used a spoon to scoop the egg custard and ate it, Rui Xue drank the medicinal soup with a bang, frowning bitterly, Niuniu hurriedly took the candied fruit and stuffed it into her sister's mouth, staring at her big eyes and letting go of her brows, before laughing, Rui Xue's heart was warm, she took her into her arms, and asked a few words about what was lively in the street market outside, which caused Niuniu to shake her little head and talk non-stop.
Soon, Shopkeeper Liu and Desheng took the little guy and went upstairs with the food, Desheng stopped the little guy and personally brought the food into the screen and put it away, Rui Xue said, "Desheng sit down and eat together." ”
Desheng was willing to respond, and said with a smile, "Miss Xie is sympathetic, I will go down to eat with Mu Gongzi, and I happen to take care of the carriage and salute." ”
Rui Xue didn't insist, Desheng was just about to turn around, but he heard outside the screen, and the Jiu'er girl made a fuss again, "Shopkeeper, your restaurant is hospitable to one over the other, just now there was obviously a golden food in the screen, why is there no more of it when we come here?" ”
Shopkeeper Liu was simply bitter in his heart, and he couldn't wait to send these two evil guests away for a while, with a wry smile on his face, he bowed, "This young lady, our restaurant is a century-old restaurant, and we treat customers equally, and we have never favored one over the other. ”
The Jiu'er girl refused to believe it, her brows furrowed and she wanted to say more, but her brother pulled her sleeves and scolded, "Sit down!" That's obviously someone else's maid did it, not the food in the restaurant! ”
Miss Jiu'er blinked, and remembered that it was indeed the maid who brought it in just now, but she was spoiled at home, sleeping in the open along the way, eating and sleeping well, and finally seeing the same favorite food, how could she be willing to give up like this, so she ignored her brother's cold face, turned her head and shouted loudly into the screen, "Hey, the people in the screen, how about giving me a bowl of food?" I'm hungry! ”
The old lady was drinking the medicinal soup, and when she heard Jiu'er wanting to eat directly, she almost choked in surprise, and finally swallowed the medicinal soup, so she frowned. Rui Xue has some love for this girl's temperament, although it is a little rude, but if she wants anything, she can say it directly, which is much more refreshing than most women in this time and space.
Caiyun steamed a total of two bowls of egg custard, one bowl for the old grandmother's stomach, and the other bowl was for Niuniu's hunger, but Niuniu just ate a stomach of snacks below, and this egg custard was left, which is also a coincidence.
Rui Xue smiled and said, "It's just a snack made by the maid, and it just so happens that there is an extra bowl, since the girl doesn't dislike it, please use it." ”
"Great, thank you." Jiu'er was very happy, and turned around and raised her eyebrows at the embarrassed brother, which made the brother's face darken by three points.
Jian Wu took out the egg custard and sent it to Jiu'er, bowed and retreated, Jiu'er quickly scooped a spoonful and put it in his mouth, immediately smiled, and praised, "It's delicious, it's delicious, how is this..."
