Chapter 24: The Girl Who Fears Mouse
Jiang Ziyi looked up and saw a lonely goose screaming in the clouds, it seemed to fly very hard, and after a while, it flew into the clouds.
The autumn wind was blowing, and a few fallen leaves drifted by.
Jiang Ziyi touched the scene and said leisurely: "What a poor goose, why is it the only one left? What about its parents? Don't you want it?"
I comforted her and said, "Its parents are waiting for it not far ahead." ”
Jiang Ziyi said: "Why wait? its parents, sisters and sisters can't just fly with it." ”
Then, we were silent for a while.
The sun sets, and the birds return to the forest.
The wind is slanting, the smoke is curling, and there are already yellow leaves all over the ground.
Jiang Ziyi suddenly sang Ma Zhiyuan's Xiaoling "Tianjingsha Autumn Thought": "Withered vines and old trees are faint crows, small bridges and flowing water, and the ancient road is west wind and thin horses." The sun is setting, and the heartbroken man is at the end of the world. ”
In this situation, Jiang Ziyi is in line with the artistic conception of this poem. From her mouth, one song and three sighs, the tone is frustrated, and there is a different taste.
I thought about it for a while, and recited a song by Wang Shifu "Farewell to the Long Pavilion, Zhenggong, Just Right": "The blue clouds are in the sky, the yellow flowers are in the ground, and the west wind is tight." The northern geese fly south. Who is drunk with frost and forest? Always leaves people's tears. ”
Although I am not a broadcasting professional, I also read the words correctly and sincerely.
Jiang Ziyi said: "Brother Zhang is so eloquent, you can sing a poem to answer "Tianjingsha" in real time, and my little sister admires it." ”
I said, "Jiang Mei has won the award, it is not my work, it just happens to be familiar." ”
Jiang Ziyi said with a smile: "Brother Zhang is modest, Brother Zhang is well-versed in the past, and my little sister sincerely admires it." ”
I quipped, "You were my first fan, I remember." ”
"Fans?" Jiang Ziyi was thinking about what it was.
Let's talk about it, the awkward atmosphere has eased a lot, like friends with similar smells traveling together.
Jiang Ziyi pointed to the front and said, "Brother Zhang, look, there is an inn in front." ”
I followed the direction of Jiang Ziyi's finger, and sure enough, I saw a flag waving in the wind. The banner "hunting" sounded, and it could be heard from a long distance.
On the flag, there are several large characters in the official book "Seven Star Inn".
I smiled and said, "It's a good place, we're not going to leave here tonight!"
When we got closer, we saw that it was an inn built on a hill, and the wine flag was hung on a long log.
The Seven Star Inn is very large, the front hall is magnificent, and the huge courtyard encircles a big place.
The location here is very remote, why is business so booming?
A guy in a blue coat came over, took the reins from me, and said, "Master, are you staying in the hotel?" ”
Those fellows were all good-eyed lords, and seeing that I was brightly dressed and riding a tall horse, they knew that I was either rich or noble, so they were also very enthusiastic.
I turned over and dismounted, then gently helped Jiang Ziyi off the horse, and then handed the horse to the man.
Jiang Ziyi shyly bowed her head and followed me into the hall.
The shopkeeper inside, who was about 50 years old, smiled when he saw me come in, and said flatteringly, "Son, here, do you want an upper room? We are quiet and clean here, we might as well stay for seven days." ”
The shopkeeper is all people who have come over, she saw Jiang Ziyi shyly lowered her head and followed me quietly, and saw that there were only two of us, and she didn't know if she saw us carpooling, thinking that it was a couple who eloped, so she asked us to open a room.
I saw that the shopkeeper had misunderstood, and said, "Shopkeeper, you open three upper rooms next to each other first, and we will get some food in your front hall first." ”
The shopkeeper looked at me suspiciously, does that mean you are not two people? Why do you want to order three rooms?
I'm booking a room for the Pocket Monk.
I didn't ask the price, but took out a silver ticket worth five hundred taels from my bosom and said, "Shopkeeper, is there any problem? The money will be given to you first, and we will check out at the unified settlement when we check out." ”
The shopkeeper was stunned at first, not understanding why I wanted three rooms, and he didn't ask any more questions, just rummaging through the ledger there.
I thought he would like to charter his inn, but he said: "Guest, what a coincidence, our inn just has three vacant rooms, but I'm sorry, but I can only book two for you, the rules of the shop are not to accept reservations, the number of people and rooms are evenly shared, at least one person has to be a room." A maximum of two adults can be accommodated in a room. ”
This rule is very strange, equivalent to the current standard room, and I don't know if what he said is true or false, I feel that the businessman has no truth. There are often posters on the streets: rent due, the last three days of the big clearance, etc. A few years have passed, and his three days of discount have not passed.
The shopkeeper's simple inquiry was registered, and he beckoned to the guy next to him and said, "No. 132, don't you want to invite you to dinner? As for the rules, I'll talk to the person who will bring you. ”
I thought to myself: "It's still advanced here, and there is actually a job number, he doesn't call the guy's name, it's convenient to call the job number, and everyone's level is clear at a glance." I looked at this guy closely, and sure enough, he had the word "132" embroidered on his chest. I thought again: "The pocket monk doesn't know where to go, and he originally wanted to leave one for him, but now it seems that he can only wait for the monk himself to come and open it again." ”
Number 132 led us to the antechamber, where many people were eating. There happened to be a table against the window, and as soon as the guests left, there was a junior who was cleaning up at the end and wiping it with a rag. When he saw 132, he nodded respectfully, and I saw that his chest was already 300.
No. 300 saw us coming, and hurriedly flashed out of his position and said, "Sir, please sit down, I'll go make you some tea." "People are quick and fast.
Jiang Zi and I sat opposite each other, and I said to No. 132, who brought me before: "Please serve a few cold dishes first, and then go to a few of your inn's best hot dishes, be quick." ”
Then he gave No. 132 a few bounties.
The 132nd happily took it, thanked him, and went out.
After a while, the No. 300 junior made good tea and said, "Master, you and this young lady have a sip of tea first, take a rest, and the dishes you want will be ready immediately." ”
Jiang Ziyi sat opposite me with her head down, glancing out the window from time to time, as if she was waiting for someone, and as if she was avoiding something.
At this point, I was suddenly alert, and my sixth sense told me that an uninvited guest had arrived.
Friend?
I looked up and saw that there was a Taoist priest hurrying in from the outside, just in front of me.
This Taoist priest was about fifty years old, with dark skin, a face like water, and a hooked nose, showing his insidiousness.
The difference between the Taoist priest and ordinary Taoists is that on his bun, there is a small golden snake entangled, although it is a fake snake, it is also lifelike, as if it is about to swim down. There happened to be an empty table by the door, and he sat down. The whisk waved casually and placed it on his right hand. When the Taoist priest saw that I had noticed him, he hurriedly lowered his head to avoid my gaze, and pretended that nothing had happened.
I didn't think much of it, and looked at the others again.
The front hall of the inn is very lively, almost full, and I estimate that there are people of all religions. But what caught my attention was only two tables.
There are a few people at a table who look like rivers and lakes are boxing, noisy and shouting, and there is only one woman on the table, which is more unusual.
At the other table next to these people, there was a husband and wife, the man had yellow and thin muscles, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness, frowning, covering his mouth from time to time, and coughing dryly. He seemed to be very unhappy with the noise at the next table.
The woman had a high bun of hair, holding a child in her arms, with her back to me, and she couldn't see clearly, but the child peeked out of her shoulder, about four or five years old, and the child looked curiously at the people outside.
No. 300 Xiao Er put my dishes on the table, and then squinted at me and said, "What kind of wine do you drink with this young lady?" That implicit meaning is that wine strengthens heroes, I can get drunk with three points of wine, and force Jiang Ziyi to be an overlord next to me.
Or just get Jiang Ziyi drunk, the so-called "women are not drunk, men have no chance." ”。
I have to admit that No. 300's Xiao Er's eyes are very poisonous, and he can see our relationship at a glance.
I hurriedly excused myself and said, "I'm not good at drinking, so you can serve two bowls of Yangchun noodles." ”
No. 300 Xiao Er stood still, looked at me and said: "Ye is really amazing, our chef's Yangchun noodles are a must in the small shop, you just order noodles, as the saying goes, 'eating noodles is often coming and going', but there is food but no wine, wouldn't it be a big spoiler of scenery, you still need a few pots of bars." ’”
This is the art of Xiao Er's sales again, there are only two of us, how many pots can we want? It seems that there was a corkage fee in ancient times.
Jiang Ziyi, who had been bowing her head and not speaking, suddenly said, "Xiao Er, just pick up the best wine in your store and serve a few pots." ”
It's such a big breath, it's no wonder I don't drink you down.
Actually, I still drink a lot, but I'm not good at drinking. Since Jiang Ziyi said so, I can't refuse.
The wine is indeed good wine, the opening altar is fragrant, and the No. 300 Xiao Er filled a glass for each of us, and then went to work on something else.
Jiang Ziyi changed her normal behavior, generously picked up her wine glass, and said to me: "Thanks to Brother Zhang's help, my little sister borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, I salute you two glasses." With that, he tilted his neck lightly and drank a glass of wine. Pour another cup and drink it all.
I'm not far behind.
I hurriedly picked up the cup in front of me and said, "Thank you, sister." "After that, I drew a scoop with a gourd, took a dry sip, and then drank another glass.
Although Jiang Ziyi's face is black and gray, her facial features are very exquisite, and she is strong and courageous, and she no longer avoids me. She looked at me on her own initiative and didn't speak.
I looked a little unnatural for her and said, "Sister Jiang, hurry up and eat vegetables, don't get cold." ”
Jiang Ziyi came back to her senses and elegantly took a bite of food.
I secretly admired Jiang Ziyi's amount of wine, although there were two glasses of wine, but I felt that the wine was a high degree of wine, and the wine she drank should be four and a half catties of wine, and there was no abnormal reaction at all. I couldn't help but be curious, wanting to see how much Jiang Ziyi had to drink.
So, I picked up the wine glass again and said, "Sister Jiang, it's rude and rude, how can a woman toast a boy first, so I don't have face, I will punish myself with two glasses, and then I will toast you with two glasses." After speaking, he drank four glasses in a row.
"Brother is the greatest, as it should be. Jiang Ziyi said that she didn't stop, she drank four cups in a row, and never took advantage of me.
