Volume 1: The Fisherman's Husband Chapter 25: It was when I was a teenager
The Sun family's Datong trading house is actually not big, the front and back three courtyards, the front is used to treat people and things in the counter lobby, the middle courtyard is used for family living, and the last courtyard is stacked in an orderly warehouse.
Sun Yuan'er took the three teenagers to the middle courtyard and instructed a maid to bring many seasonal melons, fruits and refreshments.
The road is built with bricks and wood, and the structure of the wooden house in Lujia Village is very different, the workmanship is more fine, the beams and pillars are carved with complicated flowers and birds and some gods used to ward off evil spirits, the windows are inlaid with mahogany, there are also some hollow intarsia flowers, adding a bit of luxury, and the furniture in the lobby is also more delicate and heavy, the screen is covered with plum orchid bamboo chrysanthemum, everywhere shows the generosity of the solid people.
There are only a few young people of the same age in the room, and the atmosphere is much more lively, after all, Sun Yuaner has been helping in the business house since she was a child, and the one who ushered in the delivery can be regarded as having seen the world, without the shelf of the average eldest lady, and she is the owner, so she looks downright and generous.
And Lu Yi or three were originally naughty tridents in Lujia Village, and they were not good children who were fuel-efficient.
At this time, Lu Xiaobo was instigating Sun Yuan'er to take the three of them to the town for a walk, and there were always some uncles and Xiaoyuer by their side, yes, they were pretending, because they were afraid of being beaten, where would they be comfortable to go out and hang out!
Sun Yuan'er was also happy and readily agreed.
took the three of them to the lobby, ran to the grandfather with a smile and muttered a few words, and finally the shopkeeper Sun said to a few people kindly:
"It's okay for you to go shopping in the town, it just so happens that Yuan'er is familiar, I haven't seen your fifth grandfather for so long and I have to talk for a while, Yuan'er, bring more money, remember to buy some gifts for the three young men from the Lu family!"
Uncle Lu and Xiao Yu'er tapped the three little guys with their fingers, and said helplessly:
"The three of you remember to take care of Miss Yuan'er, don't lose your manners. ”
"Fifth Grandpa and Brother Yu'er rest assured. ”
Looking at the four young boys and girls who had nothing to say, the three people in the room all smiled, who is not a teenager, young people are always easy to have more common topics, and have more energy to do some insignificant interesting things.
Sun Yuan'er looked at everything and felt novel, and she had to stop and look at the three people, a little helpless, in fact, this town was really nothing special for her from a small to a big one, and there were a lot of neighbors who knew her along the way, so she was busy saying hello to some sisters-in-law and aunts.
Lu Yi planned to buy some gifts for his mother and Lu Xiaojia, and he still had some loose silver in his pocket, so he naturally wanted to bring some things back to them when he came out.
"Miss Sun. ”
"Huh?"
"I have a question for you. ”
Sun Yuan'er saw Lu Yi, who looked a little twisted, and suddenly became interested, and replied:
"You ask, what's so mysterious?"
"What should a gift for a woman generally be?"
Sun Yuan'er will be wrong, her face is red, and she said:
"In fact, it doesn't matter what you send, what matters is your heart. ”
Lu Yi didn't notice Sun Yuan'er's face, and said to himself:
"I definitely have a heart, but I really don't know what to send, you can help me come up with an idea. ”
Sun Yuan'er secretly scolded in her heart, where did she directly ask others what gifts they wanted? and felt a little funny, so she pretended to be serious and said:
"Then I have to teach you well, is that woman very important in your heart?"
Lu Yi glanced at Sun Yuan'er very strangely, thinking that his mother's affinity and Lu Xiaojia were of course very important, so he nodded and said:
"Nature is important. ”
Sun Yuan'er suddenly felt a little shy, and felt that she had asked a very stupid question, didn't she say that it was the first time to come out to see the world? Why did she speak so directly, she secretly looked at Lu Yi, and saw that his expression did not seem to be fake, and she was a little happy.
"There's a shop in front of you that sells jewelry and gouache, I'll take you to see it? Maybe there's a ...... There's a gift that people like!"
Lu Yi chuckled in his heart, looked at Sun Yuan'er who was hanging his head, and suddenly understood, and complained bitterly in his heart, this misunderstanding was a big problem, but there was a little bit of joy in his heart, Sun Yuan'er was very good-looking, dignified in appearance, and light in body, so it was a big deal to give her a gift, it was not a big deal.
Young people will always feel that the favor of the opposite sex is good.
Who wasn't when they were young?
So Lu Yi is actually quite proud.
Seeing that Lu Yiwen and Lu Xiaobo were muttering in a blacksmith shop, it was probably to discuss asking people to help build a handy weapon.
This is something that the two of them have discussed for a long time, since Lu Yu taught them to read and break words, practice knife skills, and tell some allusions to the rivers and lakes, they have long thought that they can have a real weapon, and always use wooden sticks and wooden knives, where is it matched with their chivalrous dreams!
Sun Yuan'er didn't call the two of them, and walked to the jewelry shop on the other side of the street with Lu Yi.
Lu Xiaobo just turned around and saw the two people walking into the jewelry store side by side, patted Lu Yiwen, who almost put his face on a simple knife, pretended to be mysterious, and asked cheaply:
"You see, the eldest brother is the eldest brother, and it has only been a while since I took Miss Sun to pick out jewelry. ”
Lu Yiwen also glanced back, pinched his chin, and said sourly:
"That Miss Sun, obviously likes Lu Yi in the middle of the three of us the most, and she always looks at him when she speaks, and women are really cheesy, look at their appearance! ”
Lu Xiaobo thought about it, felt that it was right, and felt that it was wrong, and suddenly asked:
"Doesn't my sister like Lu Yi? So is this kid like this what Aunt Yu said?
Lu Yiwen gave him a blank look.
"Aunt Yu always dozed off when she taught you to read and write, and she gave up a fart at the beginning!
Lu Xiaobo nodded, and when he saw the two people who had already walked into the jewelry store, he said worriedly:
"Should I watch him for Xiao Jia? But seriously, that Sun Yuan'er is not bad, not only is she good-looking, but her figure is not comparable to my sister-in-law, and she is better than her sister-in-law when she walks!"
"What are you afraid of, Lu Yi doesn't suffer, that kid is very ghostly, you just say, which woman in Lujia Village hasn't been to take a peek? Besides, as a brother, shouldn't this kind of thing cover for him? This is called righteous anger!"
If Lu Xiaojia, who was far away in Lujia Village, knew that the two of them were so righteous, I don't know if he would clean up the two of them ruthlessly.
Lu Xiaobo scratched his head, thinking about it, he didn't care about the two of them anymore, and began to discuss with Lu Yiwen what kind of weapon to fight.
Where did Lu Yi know that he had accidentally become a person who liked the new and hated the old, but he was indeed looking at Sun Yuan'er, or looking at the place where a decent man and a gentleman should not look, in his own words: appreciation.
Isn't it true that beautiful things should be appreciated?
Sun Yuan'er was bending down to look at the silver jewelry in the jewelry box, just with her back to Lu Yi, the pale yellow long skirt was tied with a thin belt around the waist, and she bent down to tighten her delicate buttocks, and the scenery here was unique.
The shopkeeper is a woman in her fifties, who knows Sun Yuan'er, and when she saw the two of them coming in, she made a few jokes, which made Sun Yuan'er blush, and then the shopkeeper went to the back hall to pour water for the two, and there were only the two of them in the lobby, so Lu Yi was appreciating.
Sun Yuan'er took a fancy to a hairpin, not expensive, only one or two silver, she knew that Lu Yi would not have too much silver on them, so she didn't look at those expensive jewelry, she was just about to speak, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw Lu Yi with a wandering appearance at a glance, and asked with shame and anger in her heart:
"Where to look? Isn't it pretty? Dead end!"
After asking, his face turned even redder.
Lu Yi scratched his head in embarrassment, pretended to be calm and took two steps forward, pretending to look at the hairpin, and said with a wry smile:
"Looks good!"
Sun Yuan'er's face turned even redder, she took a bite of the road, stretched out her little hand and twisted it fiercely on his arm.
"I mean the hairpin looks good, and it must look better on Yuan'er's head!"
Lu Yi hurriedly begged for mercy, grinning in pain.
"I don't know where you learned these dirty words, hum, I think there must be a lot of girls who have been bullied like you!"
At this moment, the shopkeeper walked out with two cups of tea, and the two hurriedly restrained their expressions, and the shopkeeper smiled ambiguously with an expression that I understand.
Sun Yuan'er was even more embarrassed.
Lu Yi asked her to help wrap the hairpin that Yuan'er fancied, and selected two other jewelry, a jade pendant, and a pair of silver bracelets, adding up to five taels of silver.
When the two went out, Sun Yuan'er asked as if nothing had happened:
"Who are the pendants and bracelets for?"
Lu Yi carefully wrapped these two ornaments in a piece of cloth, put them in his arms, and replied casually:
"One is my mother, and the other is my sister. ”
Sun Yuan'er didn't know what she was thinking, and continued to ask:
"Why don't you buy yourself one?"
Lu Yi smiled, shook his head and said:
"I don't need it, and I have a pendant that my aunt gave me, and I wear it. ”
Sun Yuan'er looked at Lu Yi cautiously and asked:
"Can you show me?"
"What's not to be able to do about that?"
Lu Yi took out the close-fitting turquoise pendant from his neck and shook it, with a happy smile on his face.
"Wait a minute. ”
Sun Yuan'er turned around and re-entered the shop, and walked out after a while, handing Lu Yi to pack the box one by one.
"This is my heart, for my aunt and your sister. ”
Lu Yi was a little embarrassed, they met for the first time, but when he saw Sun Yuan'er's serious look, he finally took it.
"Put it on for me. ”
Sun Yuan'er handed him back the hairpin that Lu Yi gave her.
Lu Yi was slightly stunned, took the hairpin, came to Sun Yuan'er's back, and carefully helped a young girl put on a hairpin for the first time in his life.
The faint glow of the setting sun reflected on the town, and it also rendered the pair of boys and girls standing in front and back like golden boys and girls on the picture scroll.
"Is it pretty?"
Sun Yuan'er asked again with a little shyness, is it good-looking?
Lu Yi naturally straightened out her few strands of green silk flying in the evening breeze, and said with a smile:
"Good looking. ”
Lu Yi's expression was serious, and his eyes were clear and warm.
Sun Yuan'er suddenly smiled, blooming like a spring flower.
"Let's go find them. ”
When Lu Yi and Yuan'er found Lu Yiwen and Lu Xiaobo, the two had just paid a deposit at the blacksmith shop.
Lu Yiwen ordered a simple knife, and Lu Xiaobo ordered a dagger, and agreed to come and get it two days later.
The shopkeeper of the blacksmith shop is an old man, in his sixties, a native of Fubo Town, who has been playing iron all his life, and his craftsmanship naturally has nothing to say, when he saw Sun Yuan'er and Lu Yi coming over, he said hello to Yuan'er, and said with a smile:
"Xiao Nizi of the Sun family, are they all your friends?"
Sun Yuan'er nodded generously and said:
"Well, Grandpa Niu is not allowed to charge them a high price, otherwise I will tell you about your secret drinking!"
The shopkeeper waved his hand and said with a smile:
"Xiao Nizi, don't worry, you don't know that your grandfather Niu is doing business?"
Several people took their leave and went to the Chase Trading House.
Lu Xiaobo looked at the hairpin on Sun Yuan'er's head, and pretended to be old and sighed:
"Hey, young people nowadays, I really can't understand it!"
Lu Yiwen nodded and agreed:
"I look at it too, just now I saw something I shouldn't see with a slanted eye, my eyes are really sore!"
"What do you see?"
"There's a guy putting jewelry on a girl. ”
After saying that, the two of them also ran to the front to imitate, one made a shy, and the other pretended to have a sentimental expression, and the look was as much as it was to be beaten!
Sun Yuan'er was so angry that she stomped her feet, pointed at the two of them and said:
"You, you, you ......"
Lu Yi bent down and picked up a piece of mud and handed it to Sun Yuan'er and said:
"Deal with the two of them, don't talk if you can!"
Lu Yiwen and Lu Xiaobo saw that the situation was not good, so they ran away, shouting as they ran:
"Dogs and men want to kill for money!"
Lu Yi and Sun Yuan'er looked at each other and smiled.
Precisely:
If the world is beautiful for the first time, it is the right time to live up to the youth.
