116 Golden Wind and Jade Dew
The other disagreed: "It's boring for you to stay at home, don't I know you yet?" You secretly handed the emperor a fold and asked him to send you out to guard the border pass, but I don't know how the old general would feel if he learned about it......"
"I am dedicated to the country, how can I only be so obsessed with the private affairs of my children as you? But tonight the moon is like water, Hao Xuan, why don't you take her out for a walk? ”
"Alas, I know your heart but I don't know what I mean, Jiang Zhu, when will you be able to ......?"
"Wait......" Han Jiangzhu suddenly waved his hand, pricked up his ears, listened carefully, and suddenly a trace of joy jumped on his face: "There is a singing......
Gu Haoxuan also pricked up his ears, but he could only hear the slightest sound of the wind.
"Where? Do you have a drink in your ears? ”
Han Jiangzhu took two quick steps and leaned against the bridge railing, only to see a pleasure boat rowing across the opposite side, long away.
"It must have been the ...... from that boat."
Gu Haoxuan also came over, but saw that the yarn lamp of the painting boat was like a star, and the bow of the boat seemed to be piled with a ball of white silk. He blinked vigorously...... It can't be a person, right? Won't it ...... For some reason, he suddenly thought of someone......
"Did you hear that? Do you hear that? ”
Han Jiangzhu's voice was a little excited.
"Hear what?" Gu Haoxuan's heart was inexplicably a little disturbed.
"It's her, it's her singing......"
"Which she?"
Gu Haoxuan suddenly had the urge to grab him by the legs and throw him into the lake.
"Knowingly ask!" Han Jiangzhu's eyes chased the boat: "Who is guarding the Golden Jade Tower every day?" Is it just for that Tracey? ”
When he finally couldn't see the boat, he turned his head and his eyes lit up: "I know what her name is!" ”
Gu Haoxuan's heart tightened.
"Xue Yan ......"
Han Jiangzhu pronounced the name as if drunk.
Gu Haoxuan felt that his handsome face seemed to need to be beaten.
"I just don't know what the surname is," Han Jiangzhu scratched his head in annoyance, and looked in the direction where the boat disappeared: "The ship doesn't have a mark......
Gu Haoxuan clenched his fists and luck.
"By the way, I remember that she also painted a fan with you, and the "Cold River Picture" on it should not have been given by you...... I don't know what her origin is, when will she go to Jinyulou, who invited her just now......" Han Jiang Zhuwu pondered for a long time, and suddenly a flash of inspiration appeared: "Haoxuan, you also know that although I was born in Dijing, I have been away from home for ten years, I just came back, I am not familiar with life, you have traveled widely, help me inquire about it......"
Before the words fell, he saw Gu Haoxuan flick his sleeves and strode forward.
He was confused: "Why are you going?" ”
The person in front of him didn't look back: "Jin Yulou!" ”
————————————————————————————
Cheng Xueyan didn't know how she went back to the house, and there seemed to be a trace of coolness in her heart and lungs in the confusion.
opened her eyes in a daze, but it was Bitong, holding a silver spoon and carefully feeding her the sobering soup.
When she woke up, she was immediately overjoyed: "Girl, get up quickly, we still have to go to the moon......"
Moon worship?
She frowned lightly, this ancient person is really enough to toss, every festival is so carefully, I don't know if it's a custom or superstition.
Bi Tong helped her staggering downstairs.
The moonlight is like a veil, gently spreading, pretending the entire Yanran Pavilion as a fairyland on earth, even the air seems to have a soft fragrance, as if you can pick up a piece of golden silk silk as soon as you raise your hand.
Bitong has already taken care of everything.
In the courtyard, there is a pineapple wood long table, which is the moonlight position, and the top is lined with four silk white * agate plates containing various kinds of fruits, and there are four plates of moon cakes, and the moon cakes are stacked up to half a foot high. In addition, there is a large wooden plate in the middle, and there is a round moon cake with a diameter of one foot long, which is made for the sacrifice of rabbits. There are also two sprigs of new edamame and four bowls of tea brewed with cold water.
It is preceded by a round bucket, called "incense altar", the bucket is full of new sorghum, and the mouth of the bucket is pasted with yellow paper,
Bi Tong took out a stack of paper from a few compartments, and unfolded it to be three feet long, shining in the moonlight. It is painted with the Bodhisattva statue sitting on the lotus, the moonlight shines all over, under the flower is the moon wheel laurel hall, there is a jade rabbit holding a pestle like a person standing in the mortar to pound medicine.
Bi Tong served her and bowed to the ground in the direction of the moonrise, and burned the moonshine paper.
So can people get their wish? Although Cheng Xueyan was skeptical, she still prayed silently in her heart.
After three bows, the paper was almost burned, except for the faint light and smoke.
A gust of wind inexplicably swept the ground, and suddenly the smoke and ash were everywhere, and the two of them hurriedly got up to dodge, but they had choked on the smoke, and they were crying and coughing.
Bi Tong was still worried about withdrawing the offerings and distributing them to the rooms, but she felt that the wind was weird, and she looked through her teary eyes......
"Ah......h
The soot choked his throat, and the sound was like a rooster pinched by the neck to be slaughtered.
Cheng Xueyan reluctantly opened her eyes and looked over......
In the middle of the smoke was a man who was hunched over and hooked, as if he was still holding something in his hand......
Oh my God, the rabbit was burned out of the moonshine paper?
The master and servant didn't know whether to resist the demon or bow down, but they listened to the rabbit demon's dumb voice and cough.
It turns out that the next mortal is not easy......
At this time, Bi Tong didn't know where to find an apple, and threw it at the demon......
"Oops!"
The rabbit demon covered his head and squatted on the ground.
Bi Tong suddenly became energetic, and stepped forward to grab it: "Let you pretend to be a ghost!" ”
"I didn't, I didn't, ahem...... Aunt Bitong, her hand is light, ......"
Why does this sound sound familiar?
The rabbit demon took advantage of Bitong's stunned moment to get out of his head, and he didn't allow anyone to react, so he knelt in front of Cheng Xueyan with a puff: "Big girl, save me!" ”
It turned out to be Mama Ruan...... How could she be here? But after thinking about it, it was not the first time that she had parachuted into Yanran Pavilion, but she didn't know which god had opened the door for her.
"What's wrong again?"
Bitong didn't wait for Cheng Xueyan to answer, and took the first step to stop in front.
Since the last Jinyulou incident, she has hated this Ruan Mama to the core, and she suddenly appeared again tonight, it must be a weasel giving a New Year's greeting to the chickens - not well-intentioned!
"Big girl," Mama Ruan coughed and kowtowed, making her face disgraced, as if she had become a land grandmother: "You must save me, otherwise I will ...... I'm going to have no way to live......"
"What are you calling?" Bi Tong pinched her angrily: "Afraid that no one will hear?" ”
"Yes, yes, I'm in a hurry......" Mama Ruan said in a voice.
"Tell me, what the hell is going on? Our girl is not feeling well today, so I don't have time to delay with you......"
"It's uncomfortable......" Mama Ruan hesitated slightly.
"It seems that Mama Ruan has nothing to do, so I'll help the girl go upstairs to rest......"
"No," Mama Ruan hugged Cheng Xueyan's thigh: "Big girl, even if the big girl is uncomfortable, please move to Jinyulou......
"What?" Bi Tong was angry: "Our girl owes you?" ”
"Big girl, you don't know anything......" Mama Ruan burst into tears.
————————————————————————————
In the bumpy carriage, Mama Ruan tried to put back the wig that Bi Tong had ripped off, but she was unsuccessful, and only put it crooked in front of her forehead, which looked funny.
Bi Tong was originally angry, but looking at her appearance, she couldn't help but smile and almost suffocated internal injuries.
The reason why Cheng Xueyan is sitting here is entirely for the sake of silver. Mama Ruan shot a thousand taels, she couldn't be unmoved, but it was not good to be happy, a Mama Ruan praised her as a Guanyin Bodhisattva who saved the suffering, and Fang "very reluctantly" got into the car.
It turned out that this time Mama Ruan wanted to die or live, and she had to move her rescuer because an official threatened her that she must make the woman who caused chaos in the Jinyulou on the night of Qixi to perform a song, otherwise her Jinyulou would be demolished.
Cheng Xueyan didn't know that she had such a big influence, but when she asked who the official was, Mama Ruan said, "Big girl, this ...... Even if I was demolished, I wouldn't dare tell the big girl! ”
This is even more strange, could it be...... Hongmen Banquet?
The golden jade building is brilliantly lit and prosperous.
Cheng Xueyan lifted the brocade curtain on the car window and looked around, but did not see the soldiers holding guns and knives to enclose the three layers inside and the three layers outside.
I was wondering in my heart, the car had turned into the alley, and went straight into the Jinyu Building through the back door.
The crowd was buzzing, just like that day.
The stage has been set up, as if she is sure that she will come, and only a Le Feng who strokes the piano is placed. This made her feel that her little bit of greed for money seemed to be being spied on, and she was a little uncomfortable.
She walked upstairs, and for some reason, paid special attention to the table on the right in front of the stage......
One black and one white, it's still the same two......
But next to the white one sat an orange and red Cuisi, pouring tea and wine, enchanting.
Mama Ruan placed the master and servant in a hurry, and hurriedly went to find Le Feng, not afraid of shocking the guests with that image.
Cheng Xueyan pinched Bitong's face: "What's the matter, you're not happy?" ”
Bitong has been awkward since her master agreed to come to Jinyulou, but she is not too much, she only lowered her head and looked at the corner: "The girl's mind slave knows it, if she doesn't make some money, how can she buy the house on Jixiang Street?" ”
Bitong helped her take care of a house a few days ago, three main rooms and two ear rooms, and a small hugging house on the side, which is more than enough for two people. The small courtyard is square, neat and clean, although it is a place to be sold, the flowers and plants are also taken care of. The most important thing is that the location is good, neither remote nor noisy, and the surrounding residents are also good people.
As soon as Bi Tong came back and said it, she was interested, but the house cost 120,000 taels of silver, so how could she get it for a while?
Even if Mama Ruan didn't show up today, she was still thinking about how she could squeeze out more silver in Jinyulou. She didn't like it either, but ......
"It's hard for you to accompany me to this kind of place......"
Bitong's eyes were red: "How can the slave be embarrassed?" It's just girl, you...... The body of a thousand gold, but he has to wronged himself like this for the sake of silver. I think it's not that this silver can't be taken out in the mansion, and the second master will ...... it once."
At this point, the door was suddenly slammed open, and Le Feng was almost pushed in by Mama Ruan.
"Quick, see what the girl is going to sing in a while, hurry up and prepare to ......"
Le Feng hugged the piano and smiled at her, his eyes were a little playful.
