The flowers fade and the red green apricots are small. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

A pair of swallows that return late are busy under the eaves, sometimes mending the nest in the mud, sometimes whispering.

The weather is already warm, and the air is filled with the faint scent of flowers after the fresh rain. The breeze blows through the cicada-winged screens. The shadow printed on the screen window immediately swayed, and the shadow was full of shadows, like a cluster of green bamboos, standing on the silent water's edge.

"Little bug, don't you go out for a walk in such a good weather, and embroider wedding dresses in the building all day long?" The silence and tranquility were instantly broken by the sound of jokes. A large red shadow rose from the ground, bent down lightly in mid-air, pushed open the screen window on the second floor with one hand, and floated in.

"Ah, eldest sister, you open the window again! I don't have no door here? next time I do this, I'll go tell our mother!" Chang Wanying, who was doing needlework near the window on the second floor, was startled, stood up, quickly hid the bamboo bandage in her hand behind her back, and protested with a red face.

Chang Wanshu, who was dressed in red and had a temperament as hot as coals, didn't care, stretched out a hand and leaned behind her sister, "It's really embroidering a wedding dress! Hurry up and show me, is it a mandarin duck or a lotus flower?"

"You're in a hurry to embroider a wedding dress!" Chang Wanying dodged sideways, her movements as flexible as a frightened sika deer, "If you want to marry, you will be the first! Don't rob it, if you rob it again, I'll tell my brother-in-law! When you are engaged, the embroidery work that the matchmaker showed his mother was all bought from Cuijinfang. You, your hands are only dancing with guns and sticks!"

Chang Wanshu opened her teeth and danced her claws, and chased her sister around like a hungry tiger, "Sue it, tell it, tell it." I'm still afraid that his family won't be able to get married?! Being able to marry a daughter-in-law like me who can use a horse and a knife in troubled times is a blessing that your brother-in-law has cultivated for several lifetimes! If you really marry her a sick son who shakes her skirt, she will have a time to cry!" (Note 1)

After all, the space in the embroidery building was not wide enough, and soon, Chang Wanying was blocked in the corner and couldn't move a bit. Chang Wanshu used her own head against her sister's head, freed her two hands, grabbed the edge of the bandage and pulled it outward. "Show me, show me, or I won't tell you anything I hear in the future." My brother-in-law ......"

How could the bamboo scorn tie up be able to withstand such a strong force, and suddenly there was a "click" and it completely fell apart. Two slender strips pierced the silk cloth in pair.

At this moment, Chang Wanshu was dumbfounded. Half-raised his hands in the air and stepped back again and again, "I, I didn't mean to. Little worm, don't be angry! Sister will go out and buy a new one to compensate you. You give me the paper pattern, and I will go to Cuijinfang to find the best embroiderer and re-embroider it for you!"

"It's just a bamboo bandage, and it's not worth much!" Chang Wanying was stunned for a moment, then suddenly shook her head and smiled. "There's no paper, I'm embroidering and playing with it myself, you don't have to take it to heart!"

As he spoke, he quickly took off the punctured embroidery on the bandage, rolled it into strips first, and then quickly folded it in half, tied a few dead knots, and threw them to the head of the bed.

Chang Wanshu chased after a few steps, and finally felt a little guilty in her heart. Turning his head, he said curtly: "Then I will compensate you for a piece of Su silk, whatever you want to embroider on it, you can do it at will." It just so happens that the family's business has brought in new goods from Jiangnan, and no matter the color and texture, they are much better than last year's old goods!"

Chang Wanying didn't want to embarrass her sister, thought about it, and responded with a smile: "Then I'm welcome! I just want to cut a few new clothes! You might as well buy me a few more horses, one of each color!"

"Little profiteer, it's really condescending if you don't do business!" Chang Wanshu immediately protested loudly, and then spread her hands helplessly, "Okay, it's cheap for you." Who told me to break your stuff first! I've got to go, and send someone to the shop to say hello before it's dark. Otherwise, once this year's new silk is sold out, you will be pressed under your tongue again!"

Smiling at her sister, she walked towards the door. This time, he was very gentle and virtuous, and every step was only an inch long, and he didn't step down the stairs for half an hour.

"Sister-!" Knowing that the other party was deliberately selling Guanzi, Chang Wanying couldn't let herself refuse to be fooled. Shouting and chasing after him, he hugged his sister's shoulders with both hands, "I don't want you to pay, don't you want to pay? Don't go yet, our sisters haven't sat together and talked for days." I have the new tea I just bought, Qiu Zhu, hurry up and make a pot of tea for my sister!"

"Hey!" Qiuzhu, the maid Qiuzhu, who had been hiding at the staircase to eavesdrop on the movement, promised loudly to prepare the tea soup. Chang Wanying held her sister's arm with both hands and shook it gently, and continued to whisper, "Sister, please sit down, I recently got a Tang legend, which is about Princess Pingyang and the concubine Chai Shao's ......."

"Really!" Chang Wanshu immediately revealed her true form, turned around and grabbed her sister's arm, and urged repeatedly, "Where, where? Hurry up and show me." You girl, you don't say anything good soon, you know it's hidden! It's a shame that I'm trying to help you find out the news of Ning Ziming's house!"

"How did you give me a chance to speak?" Chang Wanying glanced at her and asked with a smile. Then he turned around and walked to the cabinet next to the bed, took out a set of delicate picture books from it, and handed it to his sister with both hands.

Chang Wanshu couldn't wait to reach out to grab it, but found that her sister's fingers refused to let go. After thinking about it, he shook his head and smiled, "Dead Nizi, my heart and eyes have grown here." Here you go, the money and the goods are clear!"

As he spoke, he quickly took out a neat piece of letter paper from his waist and slapped it on the cover of the picture book.

Chang Wanying immediately freed up one hand and grabbed the letterhead. Then he let go of his other hand and walked to the window, reading silently by the daylight outside.

Chang Wanshu picked up the picture book as if she had been treasured, and went to the window to stand side by side with her. The two sisters are as red as a peony in midsummer, and the other is as light as a spring willow, in the rippling sunset, they contrast with each other.

On the letterhead, there is a specially copied newspaper. The content described in it is a feat that happened in the small city of Yi County more than half a month ago. said that there was a thief Shao Yong that day, and he gathered 3,000 people to attack the county seat. The defenders believed that they were invincible and dispersed in a hurry. The gentry and the people of the city rushed out one after another, and the cries and wails were endless. At the critical moment, a wealthy businessman named Guo Rong suddenly stepped forward and shouted "kill the thief and defend the family". Zhao Yuanlang, the son of Zhuojun Liangjia, and Zheng Ziming, the Taiyuan dart master, followed it with indignation. There is also a county commander He Chen, who gathered more than 100 people from the people and the strong soldiers, gathered in the city with weapons, and prepared to die with the city. Everyone admired Guo Rongyi and Bo Yuntian, but pushed him to be handsome. Guo Rong saw that the thief army was strong, so he and Zhao Yuanlang and Zheng Ziming rode their horses to take the thief chieftain. The county commander He Chen led the dart divisions, errand soldiers, and Minzhuang to follow. The thieves were angry and fled one after another. The three of them passed through the formation, and then led the darts to turn around and kill back, such as the three. The thief army was defeated, and its chieftain Shao Yong was chased by Chai Rong and beheaded on the spot, and the rest died or surrendered, and the whole army was wiped out......

Looking at it, Chang Wanying's brows frowned. But soon, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Faintly with a little pride, a little appreciation.

Chang Wanshu raised her eyelids from the picture book, looked at her secretly, and then pouted lightly: "That guy has never been an Ansheng!" Grandpa took a lot of effort to make the court forget him for the time being. He's good, I'm afraid that others won't be able to remember him, so he went to Yi County to make a big splash!"

"Isn't it forced to do it? Can't you just watch the people of the city being slaughtered by bandits?!" Chang Wanying immediately opened her eyes and defended loudly, "Besides, he didn't report his real name." Zheng Ziming, Zheng Ziming, there are so many people surnamed Zheng in the world, who can still contact him?!"

"You think as simple as him!" Chang Wanshu pursed her lips, her face full of disdain, "If you change your name, others won't know that he is Shi Xiaobao, and then all the Jiangyang thieves will change their names, and the official will not come forward to interrogate and arrest him!"

"He saved the people of the whole city, not murder and arson!" Chang Wanying was anxious when she heard this, and stomped her feet with a red face, "How can you compare him with the Jiangyang thief?"

"The little emperor in Bianliang City, as well as Fu Lao Wolf, Gao Baima, and Li Jackal, don't care how many innocent people die! In the eyes of those people, the common people are like leeks, and they can grow another stubble after cutting it. And the more famous he is, the more he must get rid of it as soon as possible!"

"Ah......h Chang Wanshu grabbed her and counted with a smile: "Yo! you're in a hurry now." Who was sitting in the embroidery building just now, just like the female Zhuge Liang? It's late! This happened half a month ago, and when you go, the daylily will already be cold. Let me tell you, this kid is a fool ......."

"Sister, you, you know how to bully me!" Chang Wanying realized that she had been fooled, grabbed one of Chang Wanshu's arms, and kept shaking back and forth.

"That kid, I really don't know what is so good that you treat him like this?!" Chang Wanshu stretched out her finger and poked her sister's head, her face full of doting, "You don't have to worry about him, someone covered this matter." That Zhao Yuanlang is the son of Zhao Hongyin, the commander of the Holy Protector Capital. His grandfather was Zhao Jing, the assassin of Zhuozhou, and his uncle was Zhao Hongyi, the servant of the ministry. That wealthy businessman Guo Rong is even more incredible, he is the adopted son of Guo Wei, the privy deputy envoy. Guo and Zhao joined forces to hide the true identity of the little fat man. At present, the imperial court only knows that he is a swordsman who makes a living as a guard for the caravan, and he has also rewarded him with the official title of Yi County Cheng, just waiting to take over the post! Except for a limited number of insiders from us and the Guo and Zhao families, the rest of the people don't know that this Zheng Ziming is Shi Yanbao back then!"

Note 1: "Limo Shake the Skirt", from the "Analects of Women", was written by the Song sisters in the Tang Dynasty, advocating female self-slavery. Among them, the lady's norm is "don't look back, don't lift your lips." Don't move your knees when you sit, don't shake your skirt when you don't move. The so-called "can't move the skirt" in later generations is from this book.
