Volume 1: Seven Killings and Breaking the Army Chapter 20 Old Confucians Are All Begging (1)
Last night, there was a commotion in the Sword Pavilion, and the fat dun Gao Guifu and the clever ghost Zhang Qiguan were affected by the cold of the sword again, and the three dolls on a bed hugged each other, and slept until it was close to the morning meal, and then they woke up one after another.
Hou Zi is still young, and the maids don't need to worry about the difference between men and women, so they wait in the room early, prepare tooth powder, toothbrushes, salty water, and morning washing buckets, and wait for them to wash and change clothes.
Gao Guifu was also accustomed to being served at home, so he took the salt water and rinsed it a few times, then took off his clothes and got into the bucket. A few maids gathered around him to wash his hair and rub his body.
Feng Xingyu and Zhang Qiguan were much more exquisite, sitting on a chair, holding up a copper basin in front of them, the two of them wiped their teeth with tooth powder, brushed with a brush, and rinsed their mouths with salt water. Brush off the filth of the mouth before entering the wooden basin to wash.
The maids were very skillful in serving people, and the men in the three buckets were all children, and they only had pity in their hearts, and they did not have time to think about it, so there was no layer of tulle between men and women that bound their hands and feet. Even though the splash of water hit their clothes, and a small piece of spring light loomed in front of their chests, Gao and Zhang, who were both seven years old, didn't care, and Feng Xingyu didn't care, the three of them played in the water for fun, laughing, and the maid screamed again and again, accusing the three of them of messing around.
Finally served the three little ancestors to take breakfast after bathing, the maids in the bath room looked at each other, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly, only to see that the sisters were upside down, and the water droplets all over their bodies were dripping, as if they had been soaked in water and picked up.
Shenhua Hou Mansion sits in the southeast and faces northwest, the square in front of the house is given the name of the emperor's grace, it is called the Shenli Pond, vast and luxurious, showing the style of the prince. No one dared to invade Jianfu near the left of the Shenli Pond, because although the Shenli Pond was facing west and east, only a small piece of land in front of the mansion was shrouded in shadows. Bathed in the morning light, the god carp pond is shining, the huge fan-shaped fish scale stone gold background red veins, crimson light glow floating on the golden light, the whole god carp pond condenses smoke and fog, like a fairyland dream.
It's just that in front of such a rare and rare spectacular scenery in the world, a smudge appeared that made people sigh. A dirty and smelly old man in tattered clothes actually had the courage to lean on the stone drums on both sides of the threshold of the Hou Mansion and slept soundly, this old man was unkempt, with a faint bun on the top of his head, and a long beard on his face, but it was just gray and gray. The robe on his body was covered with greasy dirt, hard and smelly, tattered and crooked. The old man still didn't forget to tighten the placket on his chest in his sleep, but this tattered robe had a lot of gaps, how could he prevent the cold morning breeze of early autumn, his lips were purple and his face was pale. There was also a red lacquered gourd in his belongings, and at this moment the lonely man rolled down the steps. Compared with the fish scale stone that has been sharpened by the horse's hooves and is still shiny as new, this big gourd with red paint peeling off is particularly cold and ridiculous.
.
Yu Su is a member of the Shenhua Hou Mansion, who is in charge of opening and closing the door in the morning and dusk, and is a native of Flying Bird Village, Fenghou County, Yanlong Prefecture, an authentic Yanlong person. At the beginning of this year's seventeenth, the family got married for him, and I heard that the girl was upright and good-looking. The wedding was in the middle of winter this year, and after the harvest of the family's crops, the annual salary he received in the Hou Mansion was enough to hold a beautiful wedding.
Thinking that he had never been careless and was about to become someone else's husband suddenly, Yu Su touched his hot cheeks, rubbed his head, and sighed that the world is impermanent and life is beautiful.
It's just that the good mood of the previous moment, after lifting the latch and opening the door, the board is scattered, and the bad mood at this moment is like stepping on the soles of Xinna's shoes on shit.
An old beggar was lying in the doorway, sleeping soundly, and the smell of wine was blowing in his face.
At this time, it is the morning meal, after this moment, there will be all kinds of officials and guests come to visit one after another, if they see the stinky beggar lying in front of the Hou Mansion, wouldn't it be rude!
Yu Su pinched his nose and frowned: "Old man, old man, this is the important place of the Hou Mansion, you go to sleep elsewhere!"
Although his identity is not high, Yu Su is serving in the dignified Shenhua Marquis Mansion, and he did not rely on the forces behind him to immediately expel this person, which is really a rare temperament. However, the old man fell into a deep sleep, and even the thunder in the sky could not wake him up.
Yu Su frowned, he couldn't say how much he hated the old beggar, but his dirty and smelly appearance really couldn't arouse his pity and respect for the elderly. Yu Su pushed the old man's shoulder with the sole of his shoe, the old man avoided half of his body in a daze, and was about to re-enter the dream, Yu Su quickly raised his voice when he saw this, and said sharply: "This is the Shenhua Hou Mansion, and if you insult the Hou Mansion, you will be reinforced!"
The old man was half in a dream and half in the present world, and his voice was like a soul bell, and he should sit up immediately, but he didn't look at people, didn't speak, and fled in a panic, but he was touching the ground all over the place, and his mouth was muttering: "Where is my ......baby?
Yu Su saw that his face was almost on the ground, and he couldn't find the red lacquered wine gourd everywhere, and the widowhood was undoubtedly revealed, he was really angry and pitiful, pointed to the bottom of the stairs, and said, "Oh, don't you fall down!"
The old man picked up the gourd and held it in his arms, regained the treasure, and immediately piled up a pleasant smile of 120,000 points on his face. Yu Su looked at him head-on at this time, and found that although this person had gray hair, there were very few furrows and wrinkles on his face, probably because the hangover had not disappeared, and his cheeks were a little red and pink.
Yu Su hurriedly repeated the previous words, hoping that he would retreat.
The old man seemed to be unconscious, pulled out the plug of the gourd, opened his mouth and raised his head to receive the wine, the gourd mouth barely dripped a few drops, and the last half drop was not falling, and it was also added by the old man's tongue. He sighed unsatisfactorily, got up and brushed the almost stinky dirty clothes on his body, and a lot of black crumbs fell from the gray and black robes.
Yu Su pinched his nose and took three steps back, and looked carefully at the fine crumbs on the ground that had not beaten, and then felt a little relieved.
"Tell your master to come out, Daoist, I'll beg for a drink!" Lao Dao tied the red lacquer gourd to his waist, and his tone was lazy and calm.
"It turned out to be a crazy way!" Yu Su thought to himself. While thinking about how to expel this person, he said perfunctorily: "My master is far away in the military camp, which is a place full of swords and guns and heavily guarded, how can I easily see you?"
The old way is not happy or angry, and he is calm and relaxed. If you put on a decent robe, you can barely touch the four characters of the fairy wind and bones, but now it is very cold, and the beggars on the roadside are more bowls than him, and the rhetoric is more poignant and moving.
"Your master is only four years old today, how can he travel far away? Don't deceive the Taoist master, if you delay the fate of the heavens, no one can afford it!"
Yu Su vaguely knew that this old Taoist was talking about the little master of the Hou Zi, but his later remarks could really be classified as crazy words and the like, if he reported to the superior to introduce him, and then confirmed that this person was indeed crazy and disturbed the Hou Zi, then he would inevitably be scolded by a stinking meal, and maybe he would have to lose a month or two of his salary. Therefore, Yu Su did not take the risk of luring him, but was tired of his entanglement, and shouted angrily: "Go, go! This is also the place where you spread wild pits and deceive the tricks of the rivers and lakes? If you talk nonsense again, beware of losing your head!"
The old way was not annoyed and angry when he came
The lecture only expounded a natural fact, and the reason why it could not be believed was only because this person had shallow wisdom and had no chance to see the heavenly opportunity. Therefore, he took off the red lacquered gourd with yellow thread tied to his waist and shook it.
Yu Su clearly heard the sound of the half-gourd flowing water hitting the inner wall, which was faintly mixed with the unspeakable timbre of the mountain wind whistling and the clouds and fog rising, but only the sound of water entered the ear, and the other sounds were not from the ear, but from the heart, which was very mysterious. His gourd Yu Su clearly watched him drain all the wine, and even Lao Dao even made a finger to tap the bottom of the gourd to speed up the action of the wine droplets, when Yu Su clearly heard the gourd making a hollow sound.
However, even so, Yu Su still thinks that this person is a Jianghu technician with superb tricks. The idea of informing him was slightly shaken, but it was not necessarily believing his nonsense.
"The breeze of the Taoist is far away from the immortal mountain and sets foot in the mundane realm, and the younger generations have already heard of it. Today's condescension came to this mansion, coinciding with the Hou Ye's expedition, and failed to fulfill the friendship of the landlord. The younger generation Qin Yun gradually took the position of guest secretary of the Hou Mansion, the corpse was vegetarian, and he treated the guests slowly, please forgive me!"
Yu Su's legs were weak and fell to the ground, this shock was really unprecedented, Shenhua Hou Mansion has countless guest secretaries, among which Liu, Qin, Chen, and Dian are the four major guest secretaries, and the power is only under the Hou Ye. This Qin Yun, who is as famous as Liu Longchi and others, has never been prestigious, but in the territory of Yanlong Sanzhou, who dares to despise it? Such a giant statue went out to greet him in person, and his posture was low, reaching a jaw-dropping level. Then this sloppy dirty man must have a terrifyingly high status.
Thinking of his disrespectful words and deeds, Yu Su couldn't help but tremble and regret it.
Lao Dao tied the red lacquer gourd to his waist again, and said with a kind smile: "It's okay! It is also an honor for Poor Dao to have the senior disciples of Tianyuan Academy greet you." ”
Qin Yun gradually smiled and bowed, welcoming the old way into the Hou Mansion.
When passing by Yu Su's side, Lao Dao quipped: "It's a pity that you are not from the rivers and lakes, otherwise with the two feet you stepped on the shoulders of Dao Ye, your value would definitely double." ”
Yu Su couldn't figure out the holy will, so he had to kowtow.
The old way didn't stop him, and he smiled and followed Qin Yun into the house.
Yu Su didn't know how many heads he kowtowed, and his head was dizzy and swollen, and when he stopped, the two adults had already walked away. Yu Su touched his body and found that his underwear was soaked with cold sweat.
Qin Yun gradually led the old Taoist to the largest guest hall in the Hou Mansion, and the maids and servants frowned along the way, only because the big guest was with the dirty old man, he couldn't help but not make a rude gesture of covering his nose and disgusting.
The furnishings in the lobby are simple, but they are more gorgeous and atmospheric, and the wooden tables and chairs of several tables and chairs are made of exquisite materials and exquisite workmanship. The tea table is properly placed with pastries and fragrant tea, and the set of "stepping on snow plum" tea sets and dishes are from the banana eaves official kiln. Banana eaves official kiln kiln kiln porcelain is extremely rare, into porcelain is all the treasure of the mind of the craftsman, has always been only as a court specialty, civil and military officials can get a set of royal gifts, must be regarded as immortals.
The old Taoist always kept a light smile, sat cross-legged on the Taishi chair, and did not remove his shoes.
Qin Yun gradually accompanied the old Taoist elder to greet him politely for a while, and finally couldn't help but tentatively say, "Why don't you take a bath and change clothes first?"
"What does this skin look like, and what does it have to do with it? But the first meeting between Poor Dao and your little master, it is indeed more appropriate to make it cleaner, otherwise it will be too shameless to be blown away by the little doll's stick!"
