Chapter 256: A Woman Disguises as a Man
Gusu City, Cui Mansion in the north of the city. The Cui Mansion with blue tiles and stone walls, although it is not the largest mansion in Gusu City, is also ranked in the top three.
The rows of houses surround the deep courtyard, and in the deep courtyard, it can be said that there are carved beams and paintings, and the gold is splendid. In the courtyard, there is a wing room of the verandah through the mountain, and all kinds of parrots and thrushes are hung in the verandah, which makes the generous and elegant courtyard have a trace of wild interest.
In the front yard of Cui's Mansion, Chu Xia hurried in front of him, and Li Qingxuan followed behind Chu Xia smoothly. After a while, Chu Xia let Li Qingxuan into an exquisite warm pavilion, and Chu Xia didn't go in, just stood at the door and said lightly: "Stinky scholar, you stay here, don't go anywhere, I'll ask the young lady to come over." ”
Li Qingxuan nodded slightly, and said indifferently: "Then there is Miss Lao Chuxia." Chu Xia picked up her skirt, bowed slightly, and then turned away.
Li Qingxuan looked at the departing early summer, smiled slightly, and muttered: "This girl in early summer is really a girl with a pure heart, who dares to do this to me if she changes to someone else?"
After Li Qingxuan whispered, he immediately got up and looked at this exquisite warm pavilion, in which there were shelves made of purple nan wood under the west window, and the shelves were full of antiques. On the east side of the shelf was a gilded iron beast stove, and a cigarette rose from the gilded iron beast furnace and then floated out of the window.
After a cup of tea, Cui Luoshuang did not come, and Li Qingxuan had to play with the antiques on the wooden shelf. After the time of the two teas, Cui Luoshuang still didn't come, and Li Qingxuan boredly stirred the sandalwood ash in the gilded iron beast furnace.
After the time of three teas, Li Qingxuan still didn't wait for Cui Luoshuang to come over, Li Qingxuan picked up the purple gold pen and Yan Xuanmo on the wooden table, and drew a picture of a hundred butterflies dancing.
On this picture of a hundred butterflies, all kinds of butterflies are depicted flying up and down, these butterflies have "big sea eye", "small sea eye", "river summer spot", "village come", "vegetable flower" and other kinds of butterflies, these butterflies are not lifelike, if there is a famous painter here, it will be greatly praised.
After Li Qingxuan painted this picture of a hundred butterflies dancing, half an hour had passed. Li Qingxuan raised her eyebrows, and secretly thought in her heart, "Why hasn't she come here yet?
Li Qingxuan thought of this, so he got up and walked out of the warm pavilion, only to see that the surroundings of the warm pavilion were very quiet, only occasionally some maids and servants passed by in the distance.
In addition to these occasional maids and servants, there was only a young man in the verandah not far away. The young man was facing Li Qingxuan, the young man was very delicate, wearing a servant's clothes, and the young servant was half-kneeling on the ground, cooking tea carefully.
Li Qingxuan's feet were silent, Shi Shiran walked to the young servant's side, and said lightly: "The tea has not yet boiled, and the fragrance of the tea has already overflowed, this tea is very good, it is Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoot tea picked before the Ming Dynasty, right?"
The handsome young man who was quietly cooking tea seemed to be frightened by Li Qingxuan's sudden appearance, and the handsome young man was stunned before he stood up and bowed to Li Qingxuan slightly, and then said: "This son has good eyesight, this tea is indeed Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoot tea picked before the Ming Dynasty." ”
Li Qingxuan smiled and said, "This little brother, why are you cooking tea here alone, and who is this tea for?"
The handsome young man smiled shyly and said, "It was Sister Chu Xia who arranged for me to come over to cook tea, and Sister Chu Xia asked me to cook tea well, and said that this tea was prepared for a distinguished guest of my young lady." ”
A narrow smile flashed in Li Qingxuan's eyes, "I see, I am your young lady's honored guest, this tea is good, since this tea has been boiled, then you can bring it in for my son." Li Qingxuan said, and then turned around and went back to the warm pavilion.
A hint of teasing flashed in the eyes of the beautiful young man, and then he carefully picked up the brewed Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoot tea. The handsome young man entered the warm pavilion with a tea set, and respectfully poured tea for Li Qingxuan, the tea was fragrant and the soup was clear, which made people smell and be intoxicated.
Li Qingxuan took a sip of the teacup, closed his eyes slightly, shook his head and said: "It is really a top-grade Guzhu purple bamboo shoot tea, the taste is mellow and fresh, which is pleasing to the eye." The handsome young man bowed slightly to Li Qingxuan, turned around and was about to leave the warm pavilion.
Seeing this, Li Qingxuan immediately stopped the handsome young man, "Don't leave this little brother first, and after my son finishes tasting this tea, you can put away the tea set." ”
A hint of helplessness flashed in the eyes of the handsome young man, but he still stood quietly aside, Li Qingxuan's face was indifferent, and he slowly tasted Gu Zhu's purple bamboo shoot tea, and from time to time he also showed a pleasant look. Although the handsome young man was anxious, he could only wait quietly beside Li Qingxuan.
Li Qingxuan took two sips of Gu Zhu's purple bamboo shoot tea, then put the tea cup on the wooden table, and turned to look at the young man, Li Qingxuan smiled lightly: "This little brother, your tea-making skills are very good, if you are in the teahouse outside, you must be a respected tea doctor, why are you still silently doing a little house here?"
Li Qingxuan's words came from the bottom of his heart, this handsome young man in servant costumes is indeed very skilled in making tea and making tea.
If this young man is in the big teahouse outside, he must be a tea doctor with some status, and over time, even if he is the shopkeeper of the big teahouse, it will not be a problem, if so, it is indeed much better than being a servant of someone else's house.
The handsome young man bowed slightly, and said respectfully: "Young Master Qiyu, the villain is just a child of the house, how dare he expect to become a tea doctor, let alone the shopkeeper in the big teahouse." ”
"I see, your little brother is glorious and introverted, and he has a good chest, if he is a domestic servant, he does have some pearls secretly. If the little brother is willing to leave the Cui Mansion, this son will help you handle this matter, I don't know what the little brother thinks?"
Li Gongzi praised it falsely, the villain was ashamed, if there was nothing else, the villain would leave first. The beautiful young man lowered his eyebrows and said with a little trepidation.
Li Qingxuan glanced at the handsome young man meaningfully, and said lightly: "This little brother, don't pretend anymore, just by looking at your hands, you know that you are a person who does not touch the spring water with ten fingers, and you have a heart for today's meal." ”
The handsome young man shook his head and said, "Gongzi Li, please respect yourself, these questions of yours, forgive the villain for not being able to answer, and I hope Gongzi will forgive me." ”
Li Qingxuan smiled, and a hint of narrowness flashed in his eyes, "This little brother, don't be presumptuous, these concerns of yours will be blocked by this son." ”
The handsome young man wandered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and said, "Li Gongzi, you and I don't know each other, why do you help me?" Li Qingxuan smiled and said lightly: "Miss Luoshuang, stop acting, as soon as you spoke, I heard your voice, and you are really a maverick girl." ”
The beautiful young man suddenly covered his mouth and laughed, "That's right, I put on makeup like this, you can still recognize me, I deserve to be the famous Mr. Daoxuan!"
Li Qingxuan looked at Cui Luoshuang, who was dressed as a servant, and said with a faint smile: "Luoshuang, the matter of women dressing up as men was the idea given to you by that girl in early summer, right?" Cui Luoshuang smiled at first, and then shook his head.
