Chapter 23: Acceptance
Mr. suddenly became a fire man, the Taiping Monkey Kui was burned screaming, rolling down from Mr.'s back, Mr. was safe and sound, but the frightened soul was scattered, but the fire was still around the Taiping Monkey Kui not extinguished, only burned it rolled all over the ground, shouting: "I don't dare anymore!" Dragon God! Gluttonous adults! Let me live! Taiping Monkey Kui is willing to cultivate with peace of mind, I just ask Lord Gluttony to have mercy on me It is not easy to cultivate here, for the sake of me, I have collected the essence of the spirit beasts of the Three Realms, don't rush to kill them! I'm just greedy for the spirit of the world, and I'm dedicated to goodness in the future! As he spoke, he spit out the account book: "Glutton, help!"
Long Jing rushed out of nowhere, and the ledger flew back into his hand, and the fire ball of Taiping Houkui was gone.
Long Jing muttered: "Heaven and earth are balanced, Fang is the right way, you have always been greedy for essence, you only know that people want to face trees and bark, but don't you know that the two-skin face is not a good thing?"
The crowd gathered, and the melon slice raised his voice: "It's a fire!" It's a fire! Everyone saw that the fire had been extinguished, and there was nothing to see, so they dispersed, and only the gentleman who was involved by the Taiping Monkey Kui witnessed everything and was already frightened and unconscious. I hope he will take what he sees and hears as a nightmare!
Valle woke up like a dream, holding the glass lamp tightly, and pointed directly at Longjing: "You...... You! But he also fainted to the ground.
It took a lot of effort for Li Daochang to pull out the glass lamp from the clasped fingers of the petals, and he was sweating profusely.
Long Jing put away the account book, looked thoughtful, looked at those scholars, and said, "Etiquette, righteousness and shame, but it's not anything delicious...... It's a shame to be incorruptible, but today it came in handy. A shameful word, it's really a big article. It's like a person is born naked and unaware, but if he talks about people as an adult, although he is still a body, he can't live without clothes. Shame, that's it. ”
That's nature, who wouldn't be ashamed if you don't wear clothes? But wearing too much, heavy and hot, is not a good thing.
The spring breeze warms up, and the peach petals fall to the ground in circles, and for a while, the jacket should also be replaced with a spring shirt.
As soon as April arrives, the begonias planted along the Rouge River open like a pink cloud, the clear river reflects the pink and colorful, the green grass here, the climate is pleasant, it is the good weather for anglers, the begonia petals fall to the water surface, the fish float up to gnaw the petals, it is very interesting.
I came to dig camellia on the bank of the Rouge River, and I was reluctant to go home, and recently the city was popular to eat wild vegetables, saying that it was to clear heat, detoxify and repel insects, and Mr. Mo also asked my father to choose some seasonal wild vegetables to make some snacks for the benefactor to detoxify.
Speaking of this poison, I heard the doctor who often comes to buy water chestnut cake say, I am afraid that ordinary people will not be able to get it, it is the rich and noble people who have oil and water in their stomachs, but they want to eat some fresh food, not to mention what they are gluttonous, what will work, if you teach ordinary people to say, it is not easy to accumulate that kind of poison.
The kind of rich guests can't swallow coarse grains, so the father must mix glutinous rice flour with peanuts and chestnuts to form a nest, and then stuff it with shepherd's cabbage, dried shrimp, ham, vermicelli, and raw eggs, and steam it into a nest of wild vegetables, so as to detoxify the benefactor.
The spring is beautiful, and people are really reluctant to leave.
was digging, but heard a familiar voice, looked up to see that it was Luan'er and Qiu'er came to wash clothes together, the two whispered and didn't know what to say, I hurriedly leaned over to listen, the two saw that it was me, couldn't help but smile, I asked, "What did my sister say?"
Qiu'er smiled: "It's nothing, but Miss Xiliu and Miss Qingyun have lived in that house, and there have been so many unlucky things, everyone has a lot of discussions, and no girl dares to live."
I asked, "Is it only Valce who lives by herself now?"
Luan'er snorted: "The unconscious one, scolding in front of us every day, complaining about all the grievances to Mr. Mo, and none of my sisters are willing to use her to serve, now she is relaxed alone, and she only says that she wants to find a good guest to marry!"
Valve's memory was erased by Longjing, and now she is making waves all day long.
I was thinking about the petals, Qiu'er said: "Don't mention her, don't be disgusted, do you know that the Oiran will be selected on April 15 this year?"
I nodded hurriedly, the Oiran on April 15 is the annual prosperity of the Yanyu Pavilion, and the sisters have tried their best to show their strength, and the flower branches want to pull out the first prize, and the Oiran is
The center of gravity of the entire Yanyu Pavilion is naturally very grand, if you choose the Oiran, the Oiran can receive the benefactors you want to receive at will, and refuse the benefactors you want to refuse at will, and the treatment is extremely expensive, and the silver money obtained is countless, so every sister is eager to it.
The Oiran is chosen in a jar with the girl's name written on it in the vestibule, and the benefactor throws money into the jar with the name of the girl he likes, and by April 15, whoever has the most money in the jar will be the Oiran this year.
Luan'er whispered: "This year's Oiran celebration, something strange happened......"
I hurriedly asked, "What's weird?"
Qiu'er pressed to my ear and said, "I don't know why, this girl has one more than the cylinder."
I smiled and said, "This is a rare thing, the left is not less prepared, just add another one!"
Luan'er sighed and whispered, "Where is it so simple?" The roster is divided, and the girl is asked to stand by her own tank, which girl has her own tank, and there is no girl with less tank, but no matter how you count, there is always one more girl than the tank. ”
I was stunned, this is strange, could it be, what doesn't belong here, mixed in with the girls?
Luan'er said: "This matter, Mr. Mo wants us to be quiet, after all, we want to do business, if the haunted thing of Yanyu Pavilion spreads, no matter how big the face is, it will not be able to keep the benefactor, if you pray and pray to the Dragon God, and ask the Dragon God to protect it, I want to come and Xu can work."
I nodded in agreement.
In the evening I walked around the vestibule, which was full of jars, the heads of which were closed and chained. Prevent people from stealing money and cheating.
I think of last year's Oiran I remember that it was the Mandarin Duck girl, Ruixia girl was also very dissatisfied with this, and she didn't eat or drink in a noisy way, Mr. Mo in order to appease, and asked her father to buy bird's nest porridge, which I sent, when Ruixia girl was disheveled, sitting in the bed curtain and biting the horns, her eyes were red rabbit-like, very terrible.
Although Miss Ruixia is young and vigorous, and she can sing sweet Jiangnan tunes, sometimes there is no one in her eyes, and her temperament is a little hot, which will inevitably attract criticism. But she is really not bad, she doesn't hold grudges, and she doesn't care if she gets angry, she still screams with the mandarin duck girl's sisters and sisters, Qiu'er and Luan'er are also the best.
Speaking of the Oiran that the Mandarin Duck girl gets, it is nothing more than that her old man's benefactors are indeed powerful, and there are many officials in Beijing, who love to listen to elegance. And most of the benefactors of Ruixia girls are local tyrants, nouveau riche, although there is a lot of money, but they don't dare to do it against those big officials, if they insist on going their own way, resulting in the defeat of the big officials' sisters, it will inevitably cause trouble, some are obviously Ruixia girls' benefactors, in order to cater to the mandarin duck girl's benefactors, they actually switched to the mandarin duck girl, and it is inevitable that Ruixia girl will be angry.
Miss Ruixia and Miss Mandarin Duck's tanks are slightly larger than other sisters' tanks, there are many popular people, Mandarin Duck girls can be people, but I haven't heard any rumors, but Miss Ruixia, there are often sisters who hate to say that she will only pinch the tip and grab it, and she will not let people be mean.
I walked around the tank, and the names were all familiar, but who was the more? If it is a raw face, how can we not recognize it when we get along day and night?
was looking at them one by one, not wanting to run into Mr. Mo who was patrolling around, Mr. Mo looked around, leaned into my ear, and shouted: "Have you heard about the tank?" Can you ask the dragon god to protect you?"
My ears were ringing, and I hurriedly said, "I heard that!" The thing in this vat is really unusual, I will pray to the dragon god at night and ask the dragon god to protect me. ”
Mr. Mo nodded and shouted, "That's a good feeling!" But you have to hurry, in case the Oiran and the youkai, then how can it be born?
Get? And remember not to make a statement! He walked away.
I guess that Mr. Mo's voice has already made this matter out.
I entered the door with a food box, and saw Miss Ruixia at the end of the corridor from a distance and didn't know what to look at, so I walked in and said, "How is Miss Ruixia?" I brought the wine-stuffed balls that the girl wanted. ”
Miss Ruixia smiled: "Thank you for your hard work, last time thanks to you for getting rid of the female ghost, my body has not been good, it is all Qiu'er's supper, and I haven't thanked you until now."
I hurriedly said, "Miss Ruixia is polite!" is the blessing of the dragon god, and this credit plum vegetables dare not be taken seriously. Girl, okay? This season is neither hot nor cold, but it is pleasant, and the girl is depressed and comes out to relax, presumably it will be better soon. ”
Miss Ruixia sighed: "My health is not good, and I have delayed my business, so I guess I have to watch the excitement of this year's Oiran selection."
I learned to be an adult and relieved: "The body is important, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, the girl is in her prime, and she will be blessed in the future!"
Miss Ruixia snorted and laughed: "You little monkey girl, where did you learn these strange tones?" These scenes are half-baked, where is it said at this age, and he looks like a dead adult. ”
I hurriedly said, "How is this a scene?" I've heard everybody say that. ”
Miss Ruixia sighed: "You have been running around in a place like Yanyu Pavilion since you were a child, and you have been sent to this set, and you have been exposed to it all day long, and you can hear some if you don't learn, but it's a pity that you are a child, at this age, how can you be innocent?" Throughout the day, we are always hypocritical, and we are really tired. That's how life should be, you don't want to learn this. ”
I nodded as if I didn't understand, and thought to myself, don't everyone say that?
At this time, Luan'er came over, saw us, first said hello to Miss Ruixia, and then pulled me over: "I guess you should come at this hour, Miss Mandarin Duck is asking me to look for you, something happened in the house, you have to go over and take a look!"
"What's the matter?" I hurriedly asked.
Luan'er pulled me over: "You'll know when you're here."
At the end of the corridor, the mandarin duck girl was squatting outside her door, pale and shaking, while Vallet was leaning against her door, eating melon seeds and watching coldly.
