Chapter 2 The Teahouse
The sun is setting, Duan Heyu has been on the road for a day, he is riding his own jujube red horse, after all, he rarely rides a horse and has little experience, he is taking the official road, some of the businessmen and people in the rivers and lakes who passed by on this road are funny when they see Duan Heyu riding a horse, because Duan Heyu's body is tense, his eyes keep staring at the horse's back, for fear that he will be thrown off by accident, and some small beads of sweat appear on his forehead, in fact, he doesn't have to be so nervous because the jujube red horse is very obedient.
In the early years, Duan Heyu followed his father up the mountain to hunt and found a newly born jujube red horse in a forest, and its mother was dying after giving birth to it. Duan Heyu begged his father to bring back the jujube red horse to raise him, and his father was moved by Duan Heyu's kind nature... Since then, the jujube red horse has been accompanied by Duan Heyu, and when he was a child, he and Mei Lan often led it to the river to play... Gradually, the jujube red horse grew up, and my father rode it up the mountain to hunt.
The jujube red horse is really a good horse, although it can't travel eight hundred a day, but the average business horse really can't compare with it... It has a fast and strong foot, which is its advantage. It's just that Duan Heyu is going out for the first time, and it is inevitable that he will be a little uncomfortable.
He was indeed tired of riding, and there was a small teahouse not far in front of him, which was a place for past merchants to rest for a short time, and after that teahouse, he entered the Shu realm.
The teahouse is not big, and the tables are upside down a lot. At this moment, there are still a few tables of passing merchants resting in the teahouse in the evening, and one of the six people at the table knows that they are from the rivers and lakes by looking at their dress. He was dressed in the national costume of the southwest region, a middle-aged man in a long shirt who looked to be in his forties, sitting calmly and sipping the tea cut by the boss, and the other four teenagers behaved very elegantly, and they should be juniors, and they were even in awe in front of the middle-aged man in a long shirt.
They all had a small skin around their waists, and in the midst of them was a young girl who looked sixteen or seventeen years old, but who was as beautiful as a flower. She was not so quiet, she was dressed in red, her long hair was shawl, her fingers were slender, and her big bright eyes were so aura that she dared to sneak a few glances at the tables around her......
When Duan Heyu came on horseback, he saw this girl from a distance, and at this time, the girl took out the stuffing of the bun in her hand and didn't eat it, took a bite, and when she looked up, she saw Duan Heyu who was rushing to the teahouse. She couldn't help but smile when she saw Duan Heyu riding a horse stupidly, and squirted out all the buns she had bitten into... Little junior sister, what's wrong with you? The young man on the side still didn't understand what was going on, and looked at the girl in red and asked.
It's so funny, haha... You see that young man on horseback is so funny... Ha ha... The few teenagers beside him were about twenty years old, and they were all the senior brothers of the girl in red, and they looked in the direction that the little junior sister was pointing to, and they all saw Duan Heyu's appearance like riding on a tiger. Master, what kind of horseback riding is this... Ha ha... A teenager put down the teacup in his hand and smiled.
The middle-aged man in the long shirt was their master, and he also saw Duan Heyu, but he didn't show the same curiosity as a few apprentices, and he wouldn't be as rare and strange as his daughter... He took a sip of tea and said: Zijie, don't laugh at the young man who laughed just now, you see that his blunt appearance must be the first time to go out on horseback, don't make fun of others.
The young man named Zijie blushed and replied: The disciple knew that he was wrong, and the other three teenagers stopped laughing when they heard the master's lecture. Only the girl in red was still laughing, and she was still knocking on the cup with chopsticks in one hand... Fleur, you are a girl, pay attention to your behavior, the middle-aged man stopped.
Dad, what's this, he's funny... Ha ha...
The girl in red is called Hibiscus, and the name is very poetic, "Jiangnan flowers are born in front of the palace, Hibiscus is newly blooming in the cold dew bush, this flower is full of fire and autumn, and Xie Lian's color is light and competent"... But at first glance, people know that she is a quirky and very naughty woman.
Okay, don't laugh at the people, let's finish eating and we'll go to the town in front of us to stay overnight.
Oh, Furong stuck out her tongue, but she still couldn't help but look at Duan Heyu, although she didn't dare to laugh, she still couldn't hide her naughty and naughty personality, she still smiled intentionally, and put the bun in her hand into her mouth little by little, she didn't look like she was hungry at all, she was just hiding her laughter and subconsciously made some movements.
Duan Heyu arrived in front of the teahouse, and the boss's man hurriedly came over to lead the horse and said: Guest officer, hurry up after a day of driving and get off the horse to rest, drink hot tea and eat something to fill your stomach, so that you can stay in the town in front of you.
Duan Heyu said: Well, I was already hungry after a day of traveling, and the boss gave me a pot of tea and five or six steamed buns.
Guest, you can sit down and come right away.
Duan Heyu sat on the empty table in the corner of the teahouse, took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead, the sun had set, the evening wind blew gently, it was so refreshing, Duan Heyu poured a cup of tea, and tasted it very comfortably. Here, the guest officer, you use your buns slowly, the guy is habitually shouting. When the things were put down, he didn't forget to find a word: The guest officer's dress must have gone to Chang'an to catch the exam, right?
Yes. Duan Heyu replied.
