Chapter 100: The Demon Luoyang
There are a few fat plantain plants in the courtyard, and the raindrops hit the banana leaves, and the sound is crisp. Xu Fengnian and Xu Pu, who met in a foreign land, sat at the door with two stools, Xu Fengnian suddenly smiled, and when he saw Xu Pu's puzzled gaze, he said with a smile: " Uncle Xu should also know that I used to spend money to buy poetry unscrupulous behavior, I remember once spent about two or three hundred taels of silver to buy the first seven-word quatrain, there is a sentence in which the rain knocks on the banana sound bitter, at that time I feel quite felt, I took it to the second sister to offer treasure, I never wanted to be scolded a dog bloody head, said that this is a disease-free moaning words, I temporarily got up, just said that the modification into the rain to hit the thin shirt sound of the sound, the second sister is still not satisfied, I annoyed, I broke the jar and fell, said that the rain hit the plantain people beat people, the courtyard and the courtyard cracked, asked her how this poem is, ha, I didn't expect the second sister to beat me up, Chrysostom opened, a little stingy said two words, good。 ”
Xu Pu didn't comprehend the essence of the three stacks of words at first, and was a little puzzled, but only after realizing it did he smile, squinted at the gray and gloomy rain curtain, and said softly: "It's good." ”
Xu Fengnian was about to speak, sweet potato held a satin embroidered umbrella and walked into the courtyard of Qinghanzhai, and stood upside down at the door after collecting the umbrella, Xu Fengnian remembered the teachings of his mother when he was a child, the umbrella should not be turned upside down, go to turn the small umbrella upside down, sweet potato smiled, the words were funny, and said softly: "It's almost done, although it can't be said that everyone is happy, but the general direction is negotiated, and the details will be handed over to them to go back to the mansion for private consultation. The slave and maid guessed that they had to rely on the school-age women in the family to marry, and everyone was relieved to form a family. ”
Xu Pu laughed.
Xu Fengnian glanced at the sky and asked, "Why don't you go for a walk?"
Xu Pu said with a smile: "Dare to be good, if you are tired of walking, you can go to the end of the general to rest, and there are a few pots of green ant wine that you are reluctant to drink, warm it up, take a big sip of the lower abdomen, and it can drive away the cold." ”
The sweet potato noodles were gloomy, and Xu Fengnian smiled helplessly: "Really when I am a muddy Bodhisattva paper tiger, I am so squeamish that I can't see the rain?"
Hearing this, Sweet Potato no longer insisted on his opinion, and the three of them and two umbrellas walked out of the Qinghan Zhai where the bananas were fluttering, and walked out of the Juxian Palace, which returned to peace and tranquility. Xu Pu's liquor store is on the main city road, just walk straight, the heavy rain washes away, and the blood and conspiracy fall into the sink together. However, the city ban is much stricter than usual, there have been several cases of rebellion against the remnants of the family to escort loyal servants, disguised to try to escape from the city, to temporarily supplement to the three city gates of the Jinwu guards and people in the rivers and lakes to identify the identity, intercepted on the spot, as for whether there are escaped fish that slipped through the net, God knows, I am afraid that only from a number of years of revenge after lying on the salary to taste the courage can know the way, this is another similar to the joys and sorrows of the old master Zhao and the orphaned prince of Xishu.
And this thick blood account, most of the future will be imposed on Xu Fengnian's head, at this time the three of them walked in the dim street with few people, Xu Fengnian went around into a spacious alley, and finally there were some people angry, Xu Fengnian stood in front of a green onion cake stall holding up a big oil umbrella, the time-honored stall has sold green onion cakes in Dunhuang City for decades, not afraid of deep alleys, word of mouth, is such a time, there are also greedy diners come to buy cakes to gobble up, or give them to their families, Xu Fengnian and his party of three people lined up to stand at the end, during which some people came, and there were a few people who knew Xu Pu who had been selling wine for some years, and he knew that he had married a beautiful daughter-in-law surnamed Hua, and then ran to live with the eldest son of the Duanmu family to live a life of only envy of mandarin ducks and not immortals, all with a smile and quietly pointed at the middle-aged man, one of them was a bloated rich businessman, and Xu Pu, who wrote very well with a brush, begged for the Spring Festival couplets, remembered the old love, and was a little dissatisfied at the moment, stopping the teasing of those familiar diners, cut in line and came behind Xu Pu to say hello, Xu Pu turned around and smiled: "Boss Qiao, buy onion cakes for your baby girl again?" Be careful to grow too fat, you won't be able to marry in the future." ”
Fat businessman Jia Ha said with a smile: "My girl is not fat, she looks like me, it doesn't matter if she can't marry her, she can get into a big deal, Lao Qiao, I get up early and make money in the dark, what's the picture?
Xu Pu nodded and said: "This is no problem, remember to come to drink often, without your big boss Qiao's support, the wine shop will not be able to do it." ”
The surname Qiao patted Xu Pu on the shoulder, and said boldly: "This is no problem, this is not a coincidence to catch up with the housewarming, I originally wanted to go to your side to discuss, the drinks are all bought from your shop, but I have to give Lao Qiao me a reasonable price." ”
Xu Pu nodded and smiled: "Boss Qiao is an expert, I dare to sell expensive, and I won't be able to do business in Dunhuang City in the future." ”
Sweet potato stood with an umbrella and turned his head to look at the pair of middle-aged and old men who were nagging and polite, with some interest. Xu Fengnian turned around, and saw that the merchant probably saw that he was brightly dressed, and he also brought a stunning maid who was in the city, with a twisting posture that wanted to set almost and did not dare to make a mistake, and took the initiative to laugh: "This is Boss Qiao? I am Uncle Xu's distant nephew, and I came to Dunhuang City to do some porcelain trading, Uncle Xu often said that Boss Qiao has taken care of the shop over the years, and he is happy to move back, not to mention anything else, I happened to have some porcelain bowls and porcelain plates at hand, and I can count it as a countertop, and I will send more than a dozen sets to Boss Qiao when I go to the door." ”
Boss Qiao said with a look of surprise: "Really?"
Xu Fengnian smiled warmly: "If you fool Boss Qiao, the little nephew will not be scolded to death by Uncle Xu, take it seriously." ”
Boss Qiao's family is well-off, not that the dozen sets of porcelain dishes are really rare, but seeing that the men and women of this pair of masters and servants are amazing, they want to snowball money to make money in business, one relies on capital, and then relies on connections, especially the latter, who have done business, all know that many times in this world where dogs look down on people, those Bodhisattvas in the temple, if you think that you are lowly and ashamed, even if you have more real money and silver, it will be in vain, and you will not be able to enter the temple with a pig's head. Encountering a powerful person who is easy to talk to is really unprecedented than visiting the kiln and meeting an Oiran who is a chick. The reason why Boss Qiao is close to Xu Pu, a down-and-out scholar, in the final analysis, there are still some crackling little abacus in his heart, he is a businessman, and for those who have ink in their stomachs, they have a natural inferiority complex, and finally catch a down-and-out shabby, always a little complacent, and want to shake off their own rich and noble style, invite Xu Pu to write Spring Festival couplets and drink in the mansion, how could he not have the careful thought that Xu Pu was born after seeing the mansion?
Jinyi Sweet Potato bought three green onion cakes wrapped in oil paper, and Xu Fengnian and Xu Pu said goodbye to Boss Qiao and left.
The fat man didn't dare to face the sweet potato at that time, so he looked at her graceful figure when he was free, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and thought to himself, how could Xu Pu have such a generous relative?
Walking on the bluestone slab with the spring rain in the alley, Sweet Potato smiled and said: "Dadu Governor, it must not be long before the Yuwen family will regret their green intestines." ”
Xu Pu was slightly astringent, and shook his head with a smile.
Xu Fengnian asked, "What's the matter?"
Sweet potato glanced at Xu Pu, who smiled: "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Sweet potato said slowly: "There was once a woman from the Yuwen family who had a unique eye and fell in love with the Governor of Dadu, and she did not hesitate to elope to break with the family, married the Governor of Dadu, and became the proprietress of selling wine, and then for some reason, she returned to the family. ”
Xu Pu said flatly: "I remarried the eldest son of the Duanmu family, don't blame her, there are a few women who are willing to grow old with an unmotivated man, to be honest, she was willing to accompany me to such a poor scholar as Chai Rice Oil Sauce and Vinegar Tea, which has already impressed me, and I have been guilty all these years, and I feel that I owe her too much." There are a few pairs of young men and women who are not in the right household, and they can really be right. Even if there is, most of them are just paragraphs in the novels of talented and beautiful women, and besides, the man in the book has to be a high school champion, so he can raise his eyebrows. Like Xu Pu, who can squander the dowry of a hundred taels of gold, as far as common sense is concerned, he can't be a man in the book. ”
Xu Fengnian smiled lightly: " On the one hand, the family is wealthy, you can look down on those fresh clothes and angry horses rouge sandalwood, really suffer with men, only to gradually know the power of the yellow and white vulgar things, not to say anything else, chatting with close friends in the boudoir, listening to them talk about the delicacies of the mountains and seas, talking about the latest clothes and not enough to wear, the pearl and jade hairpin style is old, the woman who fell off the branch and became a sparrow may not really want this kind of enjoyment, but always feel uncomfortable, over time, imperceptibly, and then look at the man around him who has no interest, Zhilu said that his poetry and calligraphy talent could not be changed into a wife and a husband, and even had to affect his children in the future, and he naturally changed his mind. ”
"Uncle Xu, if my guess is correct, is it that at first when she goes to see her former friends, she will talk to you and laugh a few words? After a few years, she will become more and more silent, and then she will have some inexplicable little temper tantrums with you, and at the end of the day, she will not tell you these things at all?"
Xu Pu was stunned.
Apparently the young man was in his words.
"Uncle Xu, you have to feel guilty, it is reasonable, no one dares to say that you are not, but if you are too guilty and fall into it, you will be a little angry. Take 10,000 steps back and say that the woman married a good man, which is much more complete than any self-pity and self-pity that can be recalled. If you really want to blame, blame my master, if he gives you the identity of a general of Dunhuang City, where can there be so many bad things. ”
Xu Pu was stunned for a long time and didn't speak.
Sweet potato sighed quietly: "If that woman hears the words of the son, she will be embarrassed." ”
Xu Fengnian laughed at himself: "I was originally a vulgar man who was so scenic, she probably didn't want to dirty her ears, and she wouldn't listen to the first half of the sentence." ”
The famous Spring and Autumn Period, dressed as a middle-aged scribe, sighed: "Your Highness's seemingly affectionate words have untied Xu Pu's heart too much. ”
Xu Pu immediately smiled and said, "Wait a few jars of green ant wine, and scold Li Yishan for a good meal." ”
The three of them went to the small liquor shop at the city gate.
At this time, the white clothes entered the city.
Dozens of people at the city gate were not all dead.
Face the music.
Xu Pu looked at the man in white from afar, gasped, and said in a deep voice: "Demon Luoyang!" My QT room has been opened!
