Volume 1 Flying in the Sky Chapter 8 Enjoying the Flowers as Usual
Su Bailing sighed, "Okay, you only need to know Huahong's thoughts, and people die like smoke!" ”
Gu Shupang sat down again, but he was panicked. Gu Shupang still asked: "On weekdays, Huahong is such a heroic female doll, when did she become so emotional to Gu Er?" ”
Su Bailing shook her head, "Do you know that Gu Er obviously doesn't have the talent to practice martial arts, why do you have to stay in the Qinghu Sword Academy to practice swords?" ”
Gu Shupang suddenly realized, "Is it for Huahong?" ”
"!" Su Bailing said loudly: "It's because my Gu Er's face is not good, but in fact, he has been gritting his teeth in his heart and fighting for anger!" Hua Hong's talent for practicing martial arts is so good, Gu Er can't pester her every day to coax her and let her teach her how to play swords? After coming and going, Gu Er was stunned and didn't know that Hua Hong had a heart for him for a long time! What's more, Hua Hong, like Yucui, is Gu Er's personal maid since childhood, and at this age, it is normal to be tempted. ”
Su Bailing said: "Master, I was the eldest lady of the Su family back then, do you really want me to do that thing to force mandarin ducks?" I also want a face, it turns out that Hua Hong has long been in love with Xin'er! ”
Gu Shupang blushed and kept saying, "I'm wrong to blame Madame." Alas, you said that Huahong is a good girl, why is it ...... Alas! ”
Su Bailing also sighed. I hate it! The big water demon of the Baoyun River, there is no disaster in vain, it really hurts people's blessings, and a pair of mandarin ducks are broken!
The rain curtain was still the same, and the raindrops crackled outside. The other voices were quiet.
But people still have to get up to live, Gu Shupang left home early and rushed to the disaster relief again. When Gu Shupang came back last night, he really just stopped by the door of his house and squeezed home to go home.
Su Bailing sat in the front hall, holding a cup of tea, and playing a delicate little abacus of black jade with one hand.
"You go to the account office and find Lao Ma to get seven hundred taels of silver, and then go to Lianqi. Five hundred taels were personally handed over to Hua Hong's aunt and told her that after the rain stopped, the whole family would move over to live with us. The remaining two hundred taels, I'll hand you a score later, you follow the name on the score, and go to send money one by one, all of them are distant relatives who have some rainbow girls. Su Bailing stared at the abacus and didn't raise her head.
Su Bailing stood beside a sleeve-rolled Tsing Yi domestic servant, this is her Su family's self-raised domestic servant, very trustworthy, Su Bailing asked him to take seven hundred taels of silver, ready to send it to Huahong's relatives. Now that it has been decided to give Huahong a proper name, some things in the rules and processes can no longer be sloppy. Hua Hong's parents died early, and only an aunt raised her when she was a child, and now she has to be invited to live with her.
Su Bailing, a servant of the Tsing Yi family, took the list of money and transferred it to the account room to receive the money.
Su Bailing took a sip of tea, but the servant walked quickly to the main gate, holding a yellow sticker in his hand, "Madam, the county master has sent us an invitation!" ”
Su Bailing took the double-folded yellow paper sticker, opened it and took a look, and there were a few neat words on it: enjoy the flowers as usual.
Seeing these words, Su Bailing's face suddenly showed joy, and she hurriedly stood up, "Enjoying the flowers?" It's a great way to enjoy the flowers! This rain is finally going to stop?! ”
The county magistrate's family has a good flower tree, and the name of the flower tree is "Rain Double Shame". The flowers on the tree bloom only during heavy rains, and the flowers will form clusters, dazzling and like fire, and when the rain is about to end, the flowers will turn into a delicate bright yellow overnight, exuding a faint sweetness.
Because of its nature of predicting the rain stopping, every time the heavy rain stirs up the river, the county magistrate will go to see the flowers every day, once he finds that the flowers suddenly turn yellow overnight, he will hold a family banquet to celebrate the end of the heavy rain, and immediately invite many officials and family members of all sizes to enter the house to enjoy the flowers. In the name of beauty, everyone prays for the river disaster, but in fact, it is to bring the relationship between the officialdom and the upper and lower levels.
This "rain double shame" flower tree, it is said that it was given by a foreign trader, there is no local homogeneous product, no one can tell why it can predict the stop of rain. The county lord has raised flower trees for more than ten or twenty years, and the growth is extremely lush, and the trees have never borne seeds, and they can not survive when transplanted with branches, so they are the only strange trees in the whole Jiangzhou.
