Chapter 14: The reunion of the temple fair
The next morning, a ray of sunlight shone into the room, shining on Wanqing's fair face, her butterfly-like eyelashes covered her eyes, and at a glance, she slept peacefully, so to speak, it was the most restful sleep she had since she crossed. It's just that she was still sleepy, and she was suddenly woken up by a noise.
When she opened her eyes and walked out of the room, she heard a group of women talking, but she could recognize the voice of one of the women, it was Xiaohong, the maid who slept in the room next to her last night, and she could only hear her constantly reminding: "Be softer, be quieter, there are guests in the village, don't disturb them." ”
Wanqing couldn't help but smile bitterly, they had already quarreled with her, hehe, this ancient house is indeed not soundproof, but if you think about it carefully, the soundproofing effect of the seemingly modern building is not much better.
After being noisy by them, Wanqing didn't feel sleepy anymore, so she simply walked out of the hall and found out what was going on, and behind the courtyard where she lived was the fabric processing factory in Zhuangzhong, where the cloth was mixed by a jar of dyes and then dried, and next to each cylinder, there was a woman stirring there.
I saw that they were dressed in uniform clothes, and a thick wooden stick in their hands was constantly rotating, and the place where the cloth in the jar came into contact with the wooden stick formed a huge whirlpool.
Seeing this, her heart was shocked, so she stepped forward, came to Xiaohong's side, and said softly, "I'll help too." ”
Hearing the sudden sound of Wanqing behind her, Xiaohong couldn't help but be startled, and immediately knelt on the ground, and said apologetically: "Damn it, the slave and maid woke up the girl, and I hope the girl will be punished." ”
Wanqing didn't think so, and immediately helped her up, smiled slightly, and said, "No, no, it's time for me to wake up." ”
Immediately, she took Xiaohong to the side of the tank and asked curiously, "Is this how this cloth is dyed?" Can I try it too? ”
When Xiaohong heard this, her face immediately turned half green, and she became incoherent when she spoke, "Girl, don't ...... You are a guest invited back by the owner, how can you let you do such a rough job? ”
Wanqing smiled faintly, shook her head and said: "Shuang'er and I are in trouble here, and we are fortunate to be taken in by the owner, and I have nothing to do, so I will repay the owner." ”
"But ......"
Xiaohong wanted to say something, but after all, she couldn't resist it, and for a while, she was in a dilemma.
Not far away, Shangguan Hong saw this scene, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his eyes were full of affection, and he secretly thought in his heart: She is really an enthusiastic girl.
Walking quietly from behind, all the women immediately stopped their movements, and were about to speak, but they were interrupted by Shangguan Hong's silent movement, waving their hands slightly, Shangguan Hong motioned for them to continue working, and he slowly walked towards Wanqing.
His hands came around behind her, then he took her hand and whispered, "In this way, use a little more force." ”
At first, Wanqing was engrossed in staring at the dyed cloth, and didn't notice anything wrong, until she suddenly realized something, this voice was ......
Suddenly withdrew her hands, Wanqing's face was extremely crimson, "Shangguan...... Owner...... You ......"
Seeing her pretty face flushed, Shangguan Hong was even more excited, but he still pretended to be calm and asked, "Why don't you continue?" ”
"I ...... I think...... I'd better not make a mess here. ”
After speaking, Wanqing ran away, but was suddenly stopped by him, "There is a temple fair tonight, I wonder if the girl is willing to go with Zaixia?" ”
His voice was not big or small, but it was like a hammer hitting Wanqing's heart, somehow, at this moment, Wanqing completely ignored the woman's reserve, and subconsciously gave a sigh of gratitude, but the next second she regretted it, what is the difference between this easy agreement and a frivolous woman, but if you say it, it is to splash out the water, and it can't be recovered.
Since you promised others, there is no reason not to go, so as soon as your eyes are closed and your heart is horizontal, you will go even if you are stubborn.
In the evening, the temple fair went on as scheduled, Wanqing and Shuang'er dressed up in disguise and went out with Shangguan Hong, in order not to let people find them, they were according to Shangguan Hong's meaning, makeup became his scholar, standing on his left and right, and he was disguised as a noble son, however, even if he didn't dress up, he was also a noble son, Wanqing thought that some people would be difficult to take their eyes off even if they didn't dress up, so they passed through the crowd and came to the bazaar, with a lesson from the past, Shangguan Hong firmly grasped Wanqing's wrist, as if he was afraid that she would lose it immediately.
And in the evening, her pretty face is flushed, and her little heart is "banging" and beating non-stop.
They came to a kite shop, where the kites were strangely shaped, and there were all kinds of kites, and for a while, they attracted the attention of two young girls.
"Boss, how much is this?" Seeing that Wanqing had been staring at the centipede kite, Shangguan Hong asked, he really wanted to take this opportunity to express his love.
"Five pennies." I saw the boss stretch out his five fingers and said with a grin.
"Okay, I'll buy it." Shangguan Hong said without hesitation, and then he was about to reach out and take out the money, but with this action of taking out the money, he had to let go of Wanqing's hand.
Only one person could be heard shouting: "The fairy has descended to earth!" The crowd swarmed up, and the next moment, I saw a woman slowly floating down from the sky, the lilac ribbon fluttering in the wind, and the pink Luo skirt showed the woman's figure to the fullest, but Shangguan Hong only glanced at it for a moment, and turned around quickly with the kite.
I saw that his eyes were sharp, and his face became more and more iron-blue. The next second, I saw him throw the kite he just bought on the ground and rush into the crowd like crazy, but he never found Wanqing and Shuang'er.
In a secret alley, Wanqing and Shuang'er were dragged out of the sack by a group of men.
There was no expected panic, Wan Qing looked at the man in front of her with a calm face, and she recognized him at a glance, Feng Sen, the housekeeper of General Feng's mansion.
Walking out of the sack, Wanqing's face couldn't help but show a hint of sarcasm, and then said: "I didn't expect that the dignified general's mansion would also do such an unsightly deed?" ”
Feng Sen's face was calm, and he arched his hand and said, "Madam, the general invites you to go home!" ”
"Is this how you asked me to go back?" Frowning slightly, Wanqing said with a little anger.
Feng Sen was not angry, and continued: "It happened suddenly, and I hope that Mrs. will forgive me." ”
"What if I don't go back?" Raising her eyebrows slightly, Wanqing asked threateningly, but she was so nervous in her heart.
"That's not up to you!" Just as Feng Sen was about to speak, an unusually cold voice came from behind him, and Wan Qing knew that he was coming.
