Chapter 156: The Ten Thousand Flowers

Washington.

The bored Huazi sat in her small courtyard, playing with the delicate little puppet. Her heart was not as calm as it seemed, and she was engaged in a fierce struggle.

Just now she heard the conversation of a few maids in the house, they were chatting about the annual "Ten Thousand Flowers Meeting" tonight, talking about the countless beautiful flowers and all kinds of beautiful lanterns on the "Ten Thousand Flowers Meeting", which made Huazi, who was full of longing for the outside world, itch unbearably. I remembered that Xiaowen said that General Huwei was a very domineering person, if he couldn't go out after marrying into the Li family, he would just follow him out of the capital to Huyang, wouldn't he have lived in the capital for so many years?

I haven't even seen the "Ten Thousand Flowers Club", what kind of people are from Beijing? -- This sentence that those maids said just now has been recalled in Huazi's ears.

No, I'm not reconciled, I can't stay in a birdcage all the time and not see the blue sky, no matter what, I have to go out once! Huazi's heart finally sat down and decided.

"Xiaobi!"

"Miss, do you have any instructions?" Xiao Bi, who was dozing off, hurriedly walked over.

Hua Zi whispered a few words in her ear, and Xiaobi lost her voice: "Miss, you want to sneak out of the house?" ”

"Shhhh Be quiet, you're afraid no one will know! Hua Zi hurriedly covered her mouth and said, "I'll go out for a while at night, just for an hour...... No, half an hour. I'll go and see the 'Ten Thousand Flowers Club', and I'll come back after seeing it, as long as you don't say it, you won't be discovered by your parents." ”

Xiaobi hurriedly said: "No! Miss, you go out alone, in case there are three long and two short......"

Huazi said: "What can be three long and two short?" Don't you often go out alone? Which of the maids in the house doesn't often go out alone, when did you see what happened to them? ”

"Miss, you're different from us~!"

"What's the difference, aren't they all flesh and blood? Let's change our clothes, who knows if I'm a maid or a lady? Huazi said: "Anyway, I'm definitely going out today, so you can say whether you can help me or not." ”

"Miss......" Xiaobi was about to cry.

In the evening, after dinner, Hua Zi changed into a well-fitting maid dress that Xiao Bi found, even changed her hairstyle, and followed Xiao Bi out of Washington through the back door with her head down.

"Miss, you must come back early." Xiaobi whispered at the door.

"Got it, you can go back." Huazi is like a bird out of the cage, her heart is very excited, and there is a trace of nervousness and weakness like a thief.

The plan to secretly leave the house has actually been thought about countless times in Huazi's heart, what to change the maid's clothes, go through the back door, and let the maid cover, all of which are learned based on the novels she has read. That's what you've learned.

The first time I went out without a veil, the first time I didn't go out of the house in a carriage after the age of twelve, feeling the night breeze blowing outside, feeling the ground under my feet, Huazi felt that she was about to suffocate with excitement.

It is not difficult to find the main streets where the "Wanhua Club" is held, as long as you go to the most lively places.

Tonight's night in the capital is lit up by all kinds of lanterns, the streets are full of people, and the streets are full of flowers. Thousands of summer flowers are lined with flowers lining the streets, and the smell of flowers on the road is intoxicating.

Fortunately, Huazi went out at night, otherwise her beautiful face without a veil and her slender figure under the ordinary maid's clothes would have to seduce the souls of men all over the street. Even now, when most people pay attention to the flowers and lanterns on the roadside, there are still many men who inadvertently see this beautiful woman, and they are all in a trance, thinking that they have seen the legendary flower fairy.

Hua Zidong looked around, full of curiosity about everything, and unconsciously noticed that more and more eyes were paying attention to her around, and several rich men even secretly followed.

Unconsciously, she had followed the flow of people to one of the main venues of the "Ten Thousand Flowers Meeting" - Baihumen Square.

In the middle of the square is a huge flower composed of hundreds of lanterns, under the illumination of this lantern giant flower, hundreds of flowers on the square compete with each other, making people dazzled.

Next to the huge lantern display, there are three other fields performing acrobatics.

Huazi watched the performance with great interest, looked at the lanterns, looked at the flowers, and was reluctant to blink his eyes. And what makes her happiest is the lively atmosphere.

"Girl, alone?" Suddenly, a group of nobles in gorgeous clothes stood in front of her, and a guy with oily hair and pink face thought that he was holding a folding fan on his chest in a chic manner, and said to Huazi: "Girl, isn't it boring to watch the 'Ten Thousand Flowers Club' alone, why don't we be with you?" He seemed to want to pretend to be gentle, but the * between his eyebrows and eyes was undoubtedly exposed, which made Huazi feel disgusted in her heart.

It's the same man, why is it so much worse? Huazi couldn't help but think of the young man who threw the puppet doll into her car on the road that day.

Huazi didn't speak, and wanted to go in a different direction, but the group of nobles continued to block the way.

"Girl, look at your appearance, you are also a maid of a big family, right? Tell me, which maid are you? I'll go and propose marriage tomorrow and let you be my third lady, how about it? The oil-headed noble boy greedily looked at his beautiful figure and touched his chin.

Another noble son immediately said: "If you don't like him, it's okay to go with me, I don't have a wife at home yet, and you will never be bullied when you come." ”

"! What are you doing, kid? Saying okay, this girl is my fancy to me, and my friend's wife can't be bullied, you know? "The oil-headed boy is gone.

"What kind of friend's wife, she hasn't promised you yet!"

Several people quarreled like this, sandwiching Huazi in the middle, unable to advance or retreat.

"What are you doing, what are you doing?" Suddenly, a loud shout came, and several sons fell silent and looked at each other.

"Do you still have a royal law? When the street is blocking the way of a little girl?! "A young man in a white robe, looking imposing, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, walked over with a group of thug-like men.

The oil-headed boy looked at him a few times and scolded, "Who the are you! Nosy to ......"

The white-clothed boy raised his eyebrows, and the figures of the few people behind him flashed, and he had already fanned the rest of the words of the oil-headed noble man back into his mouth.

"You don't want to live anymore?" One of them said to the oily-haired noble boy with a gloomy face.

The oil-headed noble boy was stunned for a moment, and stood in place in a daze, letting the nosebleed gush out. His companion glanced at the white-clothed boy, his face changed greatly, and he hurriedly stepped forward to pull the oil-headed boy, and said as he walked: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this son, you play slowly, let's go first, go first......"

The white-clothed boy smiled slightly, walked up to Huazi, glanced at her, and said with a smile: "What do you call this girl?" ”

This white-clothed boy looks quite handsome, but Huazi somehow always feels a little awkward, especially his eyes, which make her feel the urge to gouge out his eyeballs.

"Concubine...... It's called Xiaobi. Huazi thought for a while, and took out Xiaobi's name first, but at the beginning, she forgot to call herself a "slave" and said "concubine".

The boy in white didn't notice this, his attention was already attracted by Huazi's figure and beauty, and when he heard this, he immediately said: "Xiaobi, good name, good name." Tonight's 'Ten Thousand Flowers Meeting', the girl is the most beautiful flower! I don't know where the girl lives? ……”

Huazi said nonsense: "On Beixi Street." ”

"North Seay Street?" The white-clothed man frowned slightly, and one of his subordinates immediately lowered his head and whispered a few words next to him.

"It seems that there are merchants living there, huh?" The boy in white said: "Which lady is Miss Xiaobi?" Although he looked at Huazi's clothes and thought she was a maid, her temperament and beauty still made him a little suspicious.

"Concubine...... It's the maid of the Huang family. Huazi is another casual one, this Huang family is a well-known merchant on Beixi Street, who runs a cloth shop, and the Hua family is their big customer.

The subordinate next to the man in white immediately leaned over and whispered a few words to him, probably telling him what the Huang family was doing.

After hearing this, the man in white smiled and said, "It turned out to be the maid of the old Huang family, which is really unusual." ”

Hua Zi laughed dryly, feeling that the eyes of the man in white were becoming more and more ill-intentioned, and began to look for opportunities to leave, but the men in white stood beside her in a few directions, intentionally or unintentionally, leaving her with nowhere to escape.

Huazi's heart was pounding, and she couldn't help but regret running out secretly.

"Miss Xiaobi, it is also fate that we can meet in this 'Ten Thousand Flowers Meeting', why don't we visit this lantern and a hundred flowers together?" The hand of the man in white has reached out to the gorgeous snow-white hand.

Hua Zi has been paying attention to the movements of the man in white, and when she saw that she was going to hold her hand, she hurriedly flashed away, and said in a low voice: "Men and women are not clear." ”

The boy in white smiled: "Is Miss Xiaobi still shy?" As he spoke, the whole person stepped forward and wanted to hold her in his arms.

There were many tourists next to him, but most of them could only look sympathetically at this beautiful girl surrounded by this group of people, and lamented in their hearts that another beautiful flower was about to be destroyed.

Huazi flashed lightly, and then flashed into the arms of the boy in white. But the big man next to her blocked her way.

Suddenly, Hua Zi saw a tall gray-robed man walking between the two white-clothed women not far away, who was the same person who threw the puppet into her car on the street a few days ago, and hurriedly shouted, "Childe!! ”

This shout shocked the man in white, and also attracted many people in that direction, and the man in gray robe was naturally among them.

The eyes of the two met in the air, and the gray-robed boy was stunned for a moment, and then walked over with a group of entourage.

The white-clothed boy frowned slightly, and glanced at the subordinate next to him.
