Chapter 260: Encountering Ah Dou
With some accumulation, Bai Song began to hoard the fields earlier.
In addition to planting potatoes, Bai Song also obtained some other vegetables and rice seeds from the space.
It is inevitable that too many foods that are ahead of the times appear and are suspected, and the seeds exchanged for them are all widely seen among the people of the Tang Dynasty.
It's just that the seeds have been cultivated for thousands of years, and the yield is naturally much higher than that of today's crops.
Today, Bai Song went to Pi County, handed over the seeds to Uncle Qu and Aunt Qu, and gave them a sum of money to mobilize the people of each county to participate in planting.
Under the system of cooperative labor, the harvest is divided fifty-fifty, and a certain amount of money is given to the people before the first season to stimulate the enthusiasm of the people.
This kind of cooperation has never been encountered in the lives of ordinary people in various counties.
As soon as the news spread in Pi County, many people came to inquire about the news.
And Bai Song didn't want to do everything himself, so he quietly got on the carriage back to Jixian County.
There are still two days left until the Lantern Festival.
When returning to the car in Jixian County, Dong Xiang asked Bai Song something.
Is there any preparation for the Lantern Festival's own performance?
"There is still a show at the Lantern Festival?"
This is the first time Bai Song has heard of this.
"Young master, the Weihe Lantern Club is just a sight to behold for ordinary people, but for the merchants of Jixian County, it is a great opportunity to shine. Every year, the Wei River Lantern Festival has one of the most eye-catching stages, where you set up a floating platform in the middle of the Wei River, and the merchants prepare their performances on the stage for visitors to enjoy.
If the performance is outstanding, the fame of the merchants behind it will increase greatly, and then it will become the talk of the people for a long time. Our restaurant is also a merchant with a face in Jixian County, how can we do it without a show? There is also a bamboo paper line, so you have to be prepared. ”
Bai Song was confused when he heard it: "Why didn't you say it earlier?" ”
Dong Xiang looked aggrieved: "Such a well-known thing, the slave maid thought that the young master had already known about it." ”
As soon as the carriage entered the city, Bai Song immediately told the coachman to turn around and go to Yichun Courtyard.
Dong Xiang said that in previous years, the merchants liked to invite the top brands of the Qinglou on the flower street.
The girls of Hualou can shine at the lantern festival, not only to make the merchants profitable, but also to make themselves famous, such a win-win thing is something that everyone wants to see.
The first thing that Bai Song thought of was, of course, Qing'er.
When they arrived at Yichun Courtyard, the girls already knew this white boy, and they went upstairs all the way to Qing'er's door as if they were entering their own yard.
I also feel too familiar with Qing'er, so I forgot to knock on the door and entered directly.
But Bai Song didn't expect that when he went in, he found that Qing'er was not alone in the house.
On the innocent screen, two figures overlapped, and it was impossible to see what the movement was, but it gave people a sense of excessive intimacy.
Bai Song was stunned for a moment, and a woman's scream came from behind the screen.
Qing'er showed a blushing face from behind the screen, and was about to shout to call someone, when she saw that it was Bai Gongzi, she immediately stopped talking, but she was even more shy, with a little panic between her eyebrows and eyes, and her voice was intermittent: "Bai ...... White...... Bai Gongzi? ”
Bai Song was stunned in place, looking at the petite shadow behind the screen, it was sitting on the edge of the bed with Qing'er, and it was not like the Qing'er guard he saw on weekdays, the body was clearly a young boy.
For a while, Bai Song suddenly felt irritable in his heart, and subconsciously wanted to turn around and leave.
But just as he was about to act, Bai Song asked in his heart: "Why are you unhappy?" Speaking of which, Qing'er is Qing'er, not the ink girl she used to be, and there is nothing wrong with people opening to pick up customers. ”
Thinking about it, Bai Song suppressed the displeasure in his heart and smiled at Qing'er.
"White ...... Bai Gongzi ...... You...... Don't get me wrong......" Qing'er showed a panicked face, quickly chased to the door, and grabbed Bai Song's hand excitedly, as if she was afraid that Bai Gongzi would turn around and leave.
The figure behind the screen rarely moved, but it did not appear.
Bai Song frowned as he watched Qing'er grab her hand.
"Miss Qing'er, I just came to ask for something, and I won't misunderstand anything."
"Something?"
"Two days later, I heard that the merchants are going to prepare a show, I want to invite Miss Qing'er to ......"
"I'm sorry......" Miss Qing'er looked embarrassed and interrupted in a low voice, "Bai Gongzi, you are a step late, Qing'er has already promised other merchants first......"
“……”
The results were surprising and a bit disappointing.
For a long time, Bai Song thought that Miss Qing'er was responsive to her needs, but she didn't expect it to be ...... today
If it weren't for seeing a figure behind the screen, getting such an answer wouldn't make Bai Song feel anything, but the scene in front of him was connected to the current answer, and his already peaceful heart was a little anxious.
Bai Song suppressed his temper, broke away from Qing'er's hand, and smiled: "That's the case...... I'll take my leave first, and now that time is pressing, I'll go and ask the girl from another family. ”
"White Boy......
Before Qing'er could speak, Bai Song had already turned around and left.
Looking at the closed door, Qing'er was stunned, she felt Bai Gongzi's displeasure, and she was faintly happy in her heart, but she was more worried, I wonder if this scene will alienate each other?
But after thinking about it, with my current status, it is not a good thing to be a little unfamiliar.
Just thinking about it, a little boy full of alcohol walked out from behind the screen, staggered and hugged Qing'er from behind, his hot face was attached to Qing'er's back, with a little crying, and said in a daze: "I'm frustrated in the mall, should I be disappointed in love?" The man surnamed Bai was born to oppose me! Even Qing'er wants to rob me?! ”
If Bai Song was still there, he would have dropped his jaw in shock.
This little boy is not only a female voice, but also very familiar!
It turned out to be the Chen family's Miss Chen Xirong!
……
Outside the Yichun Courtyard, Dongxiang waited for a while, and when she saw the young master coming out, she said happily: "It's okay now, when the Weihe Lantern Festival comes, there is a Qing'er girl on stage to sing a song for us, even if you don't win the jackpot, you will definitely win a piece of applause." ...... backwards"
Dong Xiang's face was full of longing, and she secretly thought that with the friendship between the young master and Miss Qing'er, inviting her to the stage was just a matter of words.
But at the end of the words, Dong Xiang saw that the young master's expression was inappropriate, and his voice stopped.
"Young Master, what's wrong? Didn't Miss Qing'er agree? ”
Bai Song didn't speak, and walked into the street depressedly.
Fuyuka hurriedly followed.
Bai Song first walked out of the flower street quickly, then suddenly turned back, looked at it as he walked, and then asked Dong Xiang: "In addition to Yichun Courtyard, which flower building is better?" Which flower building is the most famous in this flower street? ”
Dong Xiang pointed to the Baihualou in front of him: "Baihualou is the most famous. ”
Bai Song didn't ask much, and walked straight towards Baihualou.
As soon as he took two steps, he was pulled by Dong Xiang again, Bai Song was a little upset, and turned around and complained: "You don't care about me!" ”
"Young master, ...... over there"
"Which side?"
"Miss! It's Miss! Fuyuka suddenly became excited.
"Miss? What Miss? ”
Dong Xiang didn't say any more, and the person had already run towards the river bank opposite the flower building.
There are many vendors on the banks of the Wei River, and one of the small shops selling lanterns attracted the Bai Song Dynasty.
Seeing the woman standing behind the small cart, Bai Song suddenly chuckled in his heart.
Isn't that Ah Dou?
All Bai Song's thoughts were gone, and he ran towards the small cart.
In front of Dongxiang shouting: "Miss, Miss......"
But there were many people on the street, and the shouts were drowned out in the crowd, and no one cared which lady she was shouting at.
The girl behind the cart seemed to hear a familiar voice, and was showing the lanterns to the guests, when the movements in her hands suddenly stopped.
Bai Song was also very excited and shouted: "Ah Dou! ”
only shouted, and the girl behind the cart immediately noticed Bai Song.
Seeing Bai Song, the girl was obviously panicked, dropped the cart and turned around and ran.
Bai Song and Dong Xiang didn't expect Ah Dou to run, and they were run away a long way in a blink of an eye.
"Miss, what are you running?!" Fuyuka shouted anxiously in the back.
"Don't stop, chase after you!"
Bai Song greeted from behind.
The two chased all the way to the outside of Flower Street.
Out of Flower Street, there were fewer pedestrians, Bai Song's speed became faster, where could a weak woman run, and she was soon blocked in the alley by Bai Song.
Seeing that there was no way to retreat, Ah Dou simply squatted on the ground and gasped for air.
"Ah Dou, what are you running?" Bai Song stepped forward and wanted to get closer, but the other party retreated very repulsively, which made Bai Song a little overwhelmed.
Then Dong Xiang chased after her, hugged the former Miss excitedly, and her voice trembled a little: "Miss, why are you running?" ”
Ah Dou still didn't say a word.
Bai Song stood silently on the side, looking at Ah Dou dressed as a private house, without the appearance of a young lady, and setting up a stall on the street, it was expected that in the past six months, their family had changed.
"Ah Dou, give me a chance to make amends, I know it's because of my appearance that you have become what you are now."
Before choosing to deceive, Bai Song didn't think about the consequences, but since returning to Jixian County, when he thought of the woman in front of him, he always felt a sense of guilt in his heart, so that for such a long time, Bai Song avoided talking about Ah Dou.
Now, Ah Dou appeared in front of him, and Bai Song couldn't say anything flattering, so he could only choose to follow his heart and make up for it as much as possible, at least, from now on, don't choose to escape.
"Miss, tell me, what's going on? After the slave and maid escaped, it was Young Master Bai who took me in. Young Master Bai is very good to slaves and maids, and he will definitely be very good to Miss. ”
"I didn't ...... It's nothing...... I'm doing well. Ah Dou finally spoke, slowly stood up, and looked up at Bai Song, "Bai Gongzi, I am relieved to know that you are okay." ”
"What the hell is going on?" Bai Song continued to ask.
Ah Dou shook his head: "Bai Gongzi, the matter has nothing to do with you, don't ask again." ”
"If you don't say it, I also have a way to investigate, you can go, and when I investigate what happened to you, I will come back to you."
"Bai Gongzi, why are you so persistent?"
"Because I feel guilty, I think it's selfish, and trying to help you is just a kind of self-comfort. So, at least give me a chance to remedy. ”
Ah Dou looked at Bai Song and knew that even if he didn't say anything, he couldn't get rid of this person.
"Come with me, I've got to get my cart back."
