Chapter 324: The Past: Stealing Half a Day's Leisure
Ye San naturally had nowhere to go, and in order to avoid Su Liubai, he was also pitiful, so he really became a lonely and homeless.
Fortunately, there is no curfew in the city these days, and the big and small vendors on the streets, those people who have been looking forward to these few days in a year, even if it is very cold, can not resist such high emotions, unless they are really tired, who is willing to go home early and waste this good time.
Of course, daytime has the benefits of daytime, and there is naturally nighttime fun at night.
The third watch of the night accompanied a few little children with cold red faces to watch shadow puppets with great interest, until the half moon tilted.
The bells and whistles behind the curtain continued, and the children couldn't resist the sleepiness after all, and they yawned home one by one, and in the end, only the night watchman was left alone.
There is no interruption in the opening of the stage, as long as there is one person sitting in the audience, the boss and his subordinates are still loud, and the tone is still loud, and the ups and downs are highs and downs, especially the three nights throw down a piece of broken silver, which falls in the copper bowl in front of the stage and makes a crisp jingle sound.
It has become a special session prepared for the third watch of the night alone.
Driven by this piece of broken silver that is enough for their half a month's income, the boss used all eighteen kinds of martial arts, and leaked out the ability to press the bottom of the box, until the sky was bright, the boss was acting happily, and the night three was very uncooperative with the stomach cooing.
Throwing down a piece of broken silver again, Ye San left under the grateful gaze of the boss.
The street is no longer as noisy as last night, but only for a moment, and it won't be long before it will be lively again.
The vendor owner who takes a break will not choose to close the stall and go home, for fear that the good lot will be occupied when he comes back, and he will have to make a lot less copper plate at the end of the day.
I chose a stall selling mutton soup, two large pots, set up a stove, and the ready-made baked cakes were neatly stacked in a dustpan on the side and placed on the stove to keep warm.
Obviously, the boss who had just fallen asleep was snoring softly, and the proprietress who took turns to work was a clean woman, and the stall was cleaned up like baked cakes of the same size, in an orderly manner, and even the charcoal was stacked on the side of the stove, sitting next to her own house, quiet and gentle.
Seeing that there were guests coming to the door early in the morning, the proprietress hurriedly got up and asked in a low voice, "What does the guest officer eat?" Haggis, lamb. ”
asked for a bowl of haggis, watched the proprietress skillfully grasp the meat, sprinkled a large handful of diced green onions and coriander, and politely smiled softly and asked if to add peppercorns.
After the third night watch, I added a small spoonful of coarse powder that I looked at home-ground and poured it on the steaming milk white sheep soup, the taste was instantly stimulated, and the aroma was fragrant, filling the heart.
The proprietress did not sit back beside her husband, stood on the side of the stall, and watched Ye San break the baked cakes carefully to the size of her fingers, and began to introduce the benefits of her own mutton soup very enthusiastically, saying that it was his husband's family that had passed down the craft for several generations, the mother-in-law played the best baked cakes, and the soup base boiled by the husband's grandfather was the most fragrant.
Ye San chewed more slowly, took a sip to answer "oh", swallowed a mouthful and said "um", smiled and nodded and said "great goodness", and said his sister casually said back then, "I only wish to taste all the food and wine in this life, but I want to be worthy of the beauty of the world."
made this simple woman who only cared about praising her own sheep soup not know where to start for a while, and she felt that she was playing a big knife in front of Guan Gong.
The shadow puppet show sounded in his ears for half a night, and then he heard the chatter of the proprietress soliciting business, and after drinking the last bite of the baked cake, Ye San took out a piece of broken silver the size of a date, "Boss lady, the mutton soup is delicious, but there is an immature suggestion, I don't know if I can say it?" ”
I didn't see the money, just to buy a good pot of sake for my man at noon, the woman rubbed her hands crampedly with her apron, "You speak, you speak." ”
Ye Sangen pretended to frown and disgust, I don't know if he was deliberately making fun of this woman whose eyes were only limited to the price of a meal, and threw out a piece of broken silver, and said with a smile: "It's just a little salty." ”
Obviously, the price of this bowl of haggis soup has been exceeded, and the woman is at a loss when she looks at the two pieces of silver in front of the table.
Ye Sangen got up, "Pay attention next time." ”
But before turning around, he added: "I hope there will be another time." ”
The woman looked bewildered, turned her back, and heard another word.
"The shadow puppet show is too noisy, so you should change your taste."
……
The sun has not risen three poles, but there is no gold plate hanging high.
The sky was gray and cloudy, and the wind was mixed with a chill that made people shrink into a ball, and I was afraid that there would be snow.
Huddled by the fire, the owner of the mutton soup stall, who was tasked with making money to support his family, woke up after a stirring spirit, yawned and asked what time it was.
Didn't wait for a reply.
The middle-aged man rubbed his sleepy eyes, and saw his mother-in-law cleaning up the stall that was actually very clean, and said "hey" very unceremoniously.
The simple woman in a coarse linen skirt came back to her senses and said, "Daddy, a strange person came just now, saying that our soup is too idle. ”
The ancestral craftsmanship of several generations has not heard any diners talk about heavy mouths even if it is difficult to adjust, and it is very important to pay attention to the signboard passed down from generation to generation in their own family, the man turned over and got up, skimming the white soup in the cauldron, just a sniff, practice makes perfect smell, and he can also smell the saltiness, and then grinned: "Smashing the deal?" ”
The woman was truthful and took out two pieces of broken silver that were enough for their family of four or five to live for a few months, "How is it possible to give these two pieces of broken silver to the official family." ”
After taking the two pieces of broken silver, he started with two pounds and two pounds, and the back molars were bitten, which was also a strange hardness, and it was confirmed that it was the official silver that circulated in several major banks, and the man asked: "What else did he say?" ”
"He just said that it was delicious, but it was a little salty, and asked us to pay attention next time." For fear that it would be because of her own inattention to arouse the opinions of the diners, the woman's 1510 answer, looking cautious, "I also inexplicably said that I hope there will be no next time, and I will say that the shadow puppet show is too noisy, change the taste." ”
At this point, the woman tentatively asked, "Is this man sick?" ”
In any case, he can be regarded as a well-informed family, and he also understands the temperament of his mother-in-law, and glared and reprimanded: "You are sick." Then he asked, "What are you talking nonsense to people again?" ”
The woman replied truthfully, saying that she was worried that the guests would pay the bill after eating, and they would think that their own sheep soup above the market price would be expensive, so she had the self-selling boast of selling melons just now, and said that the production of her own sheep soup was cumbersome and excellent, just to be worthy of the asking price at the final checkout.
scolded the sentence "unsuccessful girls", obviously blaming his mother-in-law for losing watermelons because of small losses, only picking up sesame seeds, and maybe losing a big customer for a copper plate.
The man said angrily: "The spitting stars are eager to spray into people's bowls, can it be salty?" ”
The woman was cramped and aggrieved.
……
……
Don't return to the courtyard immediately, the ghost knows how long the two women who drank like that will sleep, these days and nights are obviously lazy, and they have long lost their usual routines, go to bed late and get up late, which day is not sleeping until the sun and drying their butts?
The right is regarded as exercise, and the night is more than three while walking the qi on the week, and the inner breath wanders through the meridians and meridians round and round, so that it is the early morning of the alternation of yin and yang, and the time of the transformation of heaven and earth aura is the most full and clean, and it is the most beneficial for nourishing the veins.
In particular, with this special technique that I practiced, the celestial phenomena could have been used for our own use with the help of external qi in the future, and by forcibly accumulating to a certain degree of spillover and transformation, they could exert more powerful power.
Ruye Sanmore talent, although not as good as those wealthy families of Junyan, all of them are talented, but they can also step into the celestial realm at a young age, which is also due to the fact that he was forced by his old man to stay up every day from the sensible to practice this name is so simple that it seems to be coping, although he does not have such a unique talent, because of the slow ascension, he was also said by his father to be blind to this strange trick of the mind.
Fortunately, it is still the indescribable opportunity, coupled with the diligent practice that is not a stupid bird to fly first, and God rewards hard work, so that he can be praised by the national teacher as a young leader praised by the elders of the gate valve family with the sentence "The night family has children and three watches".
The weather was gloomy and slightly depressing, so that there were not many people on the street at noon, and the bored night san pinched the time to return to the small courtyard, sneakily peeping in front of the door for a long time, confirming that the Su family girl was not there, and then entered the courtyard.
During this period, passers-by inevitably looked at him as if he was a thief.
After all, Ye Yao, who acts in a high-profile manner but has always been low-key, bought this house in the name of the night watch, which is not often in Beijing, and there are really not many people on this street who know who the owner of this yard is.
Cooking tea and reading books, the self-satisfied Ye Yao only looked up at the night three watches, did not speak, and continued to look at the book of poems in his hand.
It is a collation of new rhyme poems in recent years, most of which are not in line with the rules and rhythms, purely just pay attention to rhyme, and the rhyme feet are not ancient rhymes, but the thirteen patterns that have only emerged in recent years.
Compared with those poems that quote classics, there are many shackles and are very particular, but the new rhyme poems have a tendency to become popular because they are easy to understand and easy to understand.
Ye Yao has a preference for this, and even over the years, the ancient rhyme has been thrown out of the clouds, and most of the small poems written by practicing pen on weekdays will be new rhyme poems that are in the interest.
Seeing that his sister ignored herself, the third night did not go to talk about herself, so she sat on the opposite side of the stone table, he looked at her, and she read a book.
After sitting dry for a long time, the idle night san was about to go out again, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Rapid and powerful.
There is a saying about knocking on the door, and the old man said that knocking is respectful, and patting is urging, so the sound makes Ye Yaoer frown slightly.
Immediately afterward, Yue Qingfeng shouted, "Open the door, open the door, something happened!" ”
Ye Sangen, who was bored, suddenly came to his senses, not to mention what Yue Qingfeng was doing, at least it was more interesting than staring at him with his sister who had nothing to do.
The horse was directly thrown aside, and he didn't even enter the door, in this cold weather, Yue Qingfeng was sweating profusely, gasping for breath, like a bellows burning fire, obviously running all the way, it was really tiring.
Without waiting for the third watch of the night to speak, this Jingzhao Mansion Yamen caught the breathless opening.
"Su Liuyin committed suicide in prison."
……
……
In the Jingzhao Prefecture Prison, the rammed earth wall made of glutinous rice pulp and green clay in order to prevent the prisoners from escaping was turned into a tool for suicide.
Su Liuyin's skull was shattered and his face was covered in blood.
With a suicide note beside him, he confessed to instigating Mo Ying to sue Liangwei for deceiving the woman, and committed suicide in fear of crime.
The blood that exploded from the impact was like fireworks, dazzling.
