Chapter 13: Falling into Smoke and Dust (2)

On this day, Cui Wuyuan came back from Nanjing, and before he could sit down, he was dragged out by Wang Shuqiu to drink.

When I came to Baihualou, it was actually evening, and Wang Shuqiu called two jars of wine. Cui Wuyuan was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Miss Wang, why do you drink so much wine?" Wang Shuqiu said: "Zizhu, pour wine for Brother Cui." Zizhu poured a bowl of wine and said, "The master is in a bad mood." Wang Shuqiu said: "Brother Cui, I respect you!" She drank it all in one gulp. Zizhu glanced at Cui Wuyuan. Although Cui Wuyuan didn't know what was going on, he also knew a thing or two.

Seeing that Wang Shuqiu was about to pour wine again. Cui Wuyuan said: "If Miss Wang wants me to accompany the wine, let me eat something first, otherwise it will be easy to get drunk." Wang Shuqiu said: "It's okay." Brother Cui can eat whatever he wants. Cui Wuyuan shouted: "Have a bowl of fried rice." Wang Shuqiu frowned slightly and said, "What's so delicious about fried rice?" Cui Wuyuan said with a smile: "Yangzhou fried rice is famous all over the world. Miss Wang has been in Yangzhou for so long, hasn't she tasted it? Wang Shuqiu said: "Why didn't you taste it!" That's it. Cui Wuyuan said: "I'm afraid the fried rice that Miss Wang eats is not the best. Wang Shuqiu said: "How can there be the best fried rice?" ”

Cui Wuyuan pointed here and said, "The Yangzhou fried rice in Baihualou is the best. After eating a bowl and wanting to eat another bowl, it makes people have an endless aftertaste. Wang Shuqiu sneered: "Isn't it just fried rice, and it is also known as the best." Zizhu, go and call for a bowl. Zizhu was overjoyed when she saw Wang Shuqiu willing to eat. These days, Wang Shuqiu only ate a few dishes except for drinking, and the rice was not stained at all. I actually ate today, it's still a big bowl, how can I not be happy.

Soon, two bowls of Yangzhou special fried rice were fragrant and hot. Wang Shuqiu tasted it, although it was no different from what she had eaten before, but she hadn't touched rice these days, and when she came to see Cui Wuyuan picking it up with relish, it seemed that this bowl of fried rice was the first delicacy in the world, so she couldn't help but eat a few more bites.

I only heard someone talking at the next table, and one person said: "I heard that the Zuo family is married to a daughter." Another asked, "Which Zuo family?" The first person said: "Which other Zuo family, Zuo Qi, the first salt merchant in Yangzhou." The latter said: "Why does Zuo Qi have a daughter?" Haven't heard of it. The first person said: "I heard that it is a long-lost daughter, who knows!" The latter said: "I'm afraid it's an illegitimate daughter!" The first person smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, what matters is who marries his daughter, and this family fortune is not in the pocket." This is called a combination of wealth and sex. The latter sighed, "I wonder who has this blessing." ”

One person said first: "I heard that it is a poor showman who is called Yu Wenjue." Hey! The sparrow has become a phoenix. The latter said: "His grandmother's, why can't this kind of thing be my turn." The first one laughed and said: "Your brother is romantic, these ladies are afraid of you." Hurry up and go home to study and be a showman, maybe one day it will be your turn! The two laughed.

When Wang Shuqiu heard this, she drank the wine, and two lines of tears flowed from her eyes. Cui Wuyuan said: "What's going on? Why did Yuwen Gongzi marry what Miss Zuo did? Wang Shuqiu didn't answer, and drank the wine to herself, tears flowing even more. Zizhu said: "Young Master Yuwen doesn't want our master anymore." Cui Wuyuan was furious when he heard this, slapped the table and said: "This beast is not lucky, and pigs and dogs are not as good." I'm going to teach him a lesson. ”

Zizhu stopped him and said, "Don't be reckless! Do you know who the woman he married? Cui Wuyuan raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Who is it?" Zizhu said: "Yang tears! When Cui Wuyuan heard this, he didn't know where to go, and he muttered, "Miss Yang, how could it be her?" He grabbed Zizhu's arm violently and said, "You said Miss Yang, you lied to me, that person was obviously talking about Miss Zuo, how could it be Miss Yang." Zizhu shouted: "You hurt me so much, let go!" Cui Wuyuan hurriedly let go and said, "You say!" Zizhu stroked the arm that was scratched by him, and said angrily: "Look at you, as soon as you talk about Miss Yang, you will lose your soul." I just won't tell you. ”

Cui Wuyuan had an eager expression on his face, and hurriedly smiled: "Good sister, it's the eldest brother who is wrong, tell me quickly!" Wang Shuqiu whimpered: "Yang Tear found his father, so he changed his name and surname to Zuo Yuan." Since then, I have lost a confidant sister, a man I love dearly. Woooooo I'll drink to death! She picked up another bowl of wine and drank it down.

Cui Wuyuan was stunned for a long time and muttered: "Tears are no longer called tears, and we will never see each other again." He picked up a large bowl of wine and said, "Drink!" Drink! Drink his grandma's mess. The two of them immediately felt the same way, and only wine could temporarily erase the sadness in their hearts. It is the same sad person, why bother asking about cause and effect.

Cui Wuyuan has been with Yang Tears since he was a child, the two can be said to be childhood sweethearts, he has delicious food, and he will never forget this sister. Looking at her every day, even if it was just one glance, Cui Wuyuan was happy in his heart, and he seemed to have infinite energy to hunt. Later, Yang Tear lost his mother, which made Cui Wuyuan's heart also hurt, not for Yang Tear, Cui Wuyuan would not be a brocade guard. All of this is just to take a look at the woman I love in my heart. It wasn't until she fell in love with Yu Wenjue that Cui Wuyuan hid this true emotion in the depths.

But as soon as she came back, she heard that she was going to get married, and this affection for Yang Tear would forever come to naught. Cui Wuyuan has been secretly crying for so many years, saying that if he marries, he will marry, how not to make him very sad. He drank three bowls in a row, and wanted to wash away his thoughts of Yang Tears with wine.

Zizhu was dumbfounded, Wang Shuqiu drank one bowl after another, and even Cui Wuyuan drank it in one gulp. Seeing that they had drunk the two jars of wine, they called two more jars, so it was strange that they were not too drunk to drink like this. And when he saw that they had killed these two jars of wine, they called for two jars of wine.

Zizhu hurriedly persuaded: "Brother Cui, don't drink, if you get drunk again, what can you do." She didn't dare to persuade Wang Shuqiu, let alone this "wine fairy". What she was worried about was not that Wang Shuqiu was drunk, but that Cui Wuyuan should not get drunk, otherwise she would not be able to move Wang Shuqiu a step.

It was already dark, and the guests of Baihualou left one after another, and soon only two tables of people were left drinking, and they were the one who was at this table. Zizhu looked at the sky, and then at Wang Shuqiu and Cui Wuyuan, who were already eight or nine points drunk, rubbed their hands and said, "What should I do, what should I do?" "She couldn't leave herself.

I saw Cui Wuyuan: "Hey! He lay on the table, obviously drunk. Wang Shuqiu pointed at Cui Wuyuan and grinned: "You are drunk, it's really useless!" "Her tongue is already big, and it seems that it is only a matter of time before she gets drunk. Zizhu said to the shopkeeper: "Boss, please send a guy to deliver a letter." The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "The guys are busy, and they don't have time." Girl, how long will it take, we'll close. Zizhu looked at Wang Shuqiu, who was drinking by herself, and said, "Then bother you, watch the two of them for me." I'm going to call a carriage. The shopkeeper also wanted them to go, and frowned and said, "Go and come back quickly!" Zizhu galloped away.

There was no carriage in the dark night, so she galloped back to Yinfeng Tower, only to make her so tired that she couldn't straighten her waist, and she didn't even have the air to speak. It took a long time before he gasped and said, "Prepare the carriage and go to Baihualou to pick up the master." Shen Xiluo didn't say a word, and immediately drove the carriage to Baihualou. Zizhu jumped out of the carriage first and went straight into Baihualou.

When he came to the seat and took a look, his heart was cold, Cui Wuyuan was lying on the table, but Wang Shuqiu was nowhere to be found. Zizhu rushed to the counter and said loudly: "Boss, where is my young lady?" The shopkeeper said, "Someone helped him away!" Zizhu was so anxious that she was about to cry, and said, "Who helped him go?" The shopkeeper said, "Didn't you ask someone to help you go?" Zizhu knew that it was very bad, with tears in her eyes, and said, "How come, I just arrived!" The tears welled up in her eyes.

Shen Xiluo stepped forward and said, "Zizhu, don't cry, ask clearly." The shopkeeper scratched his head, suddenly slapped the table, and said, "By the way, it was the person from the other table who helped your young lady away." I was settling accounts at the time, and I didn't notice until they walked out of the door, and I didn't look at it until they walked out of the door, thinking that someone you sent had picked it up, so I didn't care. Come to think of it, the other table was also leaving at the same time. Probably it should be them. Zizhu wiped a handful of tears and said, "What did you do, I asked you to take care of people but you are so irresponsible." ”

The shopkeeper was reprimanded by Zizhu like this, and was a little annoyed, and said: "I am not a slave of your family, what responsibility do I have to bear, a person as old as your young lady, and not a three-year-old child, what else do you have to take care of." You're just vexatious. Zizhu was so angry that he wanted to hit the shopkeeper, Shen Xiluo said: "Zizhu, don't be impulsive." Let's find a way to get the master back. ”

Zizhu burst into tears and said, "Where can I find it!" If the master has three long and two short, I will not live. Shen Xiluo groaned: "The shopkeeper said that it was the person at the other table who helped the master away, think about it carefully, what do they look like and what characteristics do they have." Zizhu covered her head and said, "I can't remember." I don't pay attention to what they look like, what they wear, and how many of them I don't pay attention to. She suddenly walked up to Cui Wuyuan and kicked hard, saying, "Kick you to death, kick you to death!" It's you who caused the master to disappear. If the master has a problem, I will be the first to kill you. ”

Shen Xiluo said: "Go and wake up Brother Cui, maybe you can ask something." Zizhu cried: "Ask a fart, he was already drunk and unconscious when I left." Shen Xiluo said: "You wake up Cui Wuyuan, I will go to the whole city to find the Jinyi Guard, even if I turn Yangzhou over, I will find the master." ”
