Chapter 105 Cheng'an Night
When I returned to the courtyard, Su Su was the only one left, and the ground had already been cleaned by the maids, clean and tidy, there was no snow, only the two small flower beds in the courtyard were covered with sparse snow.
Su Su sat on the table eating pastries in a bright red coat, pulled a small bench on the ground with two legs, and after listening to the movement, Su Su raised her head and looked at Jiang Lili, "What?
The two have been separated for two years, but there is a gap after meeting at this time, but it is not strange, it is more like a firefly suddenly flying in the starry night sky, but it is eye-catching. It's like the warm breeze of the day when thirteen-year-old Jiang Lili first came down the mountain and met Zhang Jiuling, hiding behind Zhang Jiuling and Su Su smiled at him.
It's just that Yangzhou was warm in spring at that time, and it was cool at this time.
Jiang Lili took off the Tiger Spirit Knife on his back, "Where did you hear the gossip again?"
Su Su snorted, "Do you think I've been in this palace for nothing in the past two years?" Su Su waved his hand and giggled, "This Cheng'an Mansion is my eyes and ears, if you give me another two years, I'm afraid this palace will become mine!"
Jiang Lili sneered, picked up a piece of pastry from the jade plate beside Su Su and put it in his mouth, "Be careful to blow, if you are heard by a well-intentioned handyman from the corner of the wall, you will inevitably suffer from it." ”
Su Su first hurriedly looked left and right, and then made a fat man with a full face, "Am I afraid?"
"Yes, you're not afraid!" Jiang Lili sneered: "I don't know who ran out crying and holding your luggage at that time, if I hadn't gone looking for you, I'm afraid you would have frozen to death outside!"
Su Su's face flushed, "What are you doing mentioning it in the old things?" and said: "By the way, isn't that Wei Chijing very good? What are you angry with her? You see that she is tall and good-looking, you practice swords, and she practices swords, aren't the two of them a perfect match? When the time comes to go out to explore the rivers and lakes together, they will say that they are a combination of swords and swords, male and female, and how majestic!"
Jiang Lili glanced at Su Su coldly, "What's your business?"
Su Su was speechless, thinking that it was indeed not his own business, but he didn't want to admit defeat, so he stiffened his neck and said, "You care about me?"
Jiang Lili picked up the bench that Su Su was playing with with his legs and sat on it, "I said that you are really worrying, and it is not that you are engaged to others, you naturally love to say what to say? Oh, yes, even if you look like this, no one must be married to you." ”
"Jiang Dog, you fart!" Su Su screamed and kicked Jiang Lili's back, but almost fell off the table. After balancing his body with difficulty, Su Su jumped off the table and patted Jiang Lili's thick shoulder, a little surprised, "Cheng, you, your body is so strong?"
"You're not bad," Jiang Lili didn't turn his head, "I've eaten well in this mansion in the past two years, and I must have gained more than 300 pounds, why didn't I kill you during the New Year?"
"Okay, you dare to call me fat?" Su Su reacted after punching Jiang Lili twice, "Okay, you dare to call me a pig?"
Letting Su Su toss around, Jiang Lili said again: "Has Zhang Jiuling's old man come back in the past two years?"
Speaking of this, Su Su was slightly silent, "No, I haven't heard from him all along, do you think he doesn't know that I live here?
"It's a fart!" Jiang Lili scolded: "Maybe he has died outside at this time, even if you meet him, you can only meet his ashes." ”
"Jiang Gou, what are you talking nonsense?" Su Su was a little annoyed, "Did you talk like that?"
"Straight to the point. ”
Su Su didn't know what words to refute, in fact, she also had some disappointment in her heart, it had been two and a half years since she had been separated from Zhang Jiuling, but why didn't Zhang Jiuling come to her?
Su Su scolded angrily: "As far as you know, ignore you!"
Saying that, Su Su turned his head and walked towards the room, and when he accidentally slipped under his feet, the whole person threw himself on the ground in a daze.
When he saw that the tip of his nose was about to touch the ground, he felt a cold hand pull his palm, and breathed a sigh of relief, Su Su turned his head slightly to look at Jiang Lili, "Who wants you to help?
Jiang Lili pursed her lips, and as soon as she let go, Su Su fell and ate!
Rubbing his somewhat red forehead, Su Su got up from the ground and rushed to Jiang Lili's face, "You are sick!
Jiang Lili stood up, "You girl is sick, you told me to spread it, don't you scold me if I don't spread it?"
Su Su was about to scold, but found that when Jiang Lili stood up, he could only see his mouth. Raising his head slightly and looking at Jiang Lili's eyes, Su Su was a little dazed, thinking that he had grown taller in the past two years, why did Jiang Gou become taller than me so quickly? At that time, he only came to my nose!
Jiang Lili frowned, "Girl, are you crazy?"
"You're crazy!" Su Su took two steps back and stared at Jiang Lili.
"Neurotic," Jiang Lili scolded, turned around and picked up the Tiger Knife he had placed on the edge of the table, and was about to leave when Su Su shouted, "Eh, Jiang Dog." ”
"What's wrong?"
"The Lantern Festival in a few days?"
"The Lantern Festival is the Lantern Festival!" Jiang Lili said.
"Lantern Festival!" Su Su amplified her voice.
"I found out that you are really sick!" Jiang Lili scolded, "What's wrong with the Lantern Festival? Are you still going to go on a blind date during the Lantern Festival?"
Su Su was furious, and rushed to Jiang Lili's side, grabbed Jiang Lili's arm and twisted it vigorously, "Last time, you said that you were going to take me to see the lanterns during the Lantern Festival, but you secretly ran away, you liar! If you dare not take me again this time, I will tell Lao Zhang, just say that you bully me all day long, tell me to do laundry and cook, and wash your stinky socks! You won't even give me food! When you sleep, you only tell me to sleep in the dirtiest and coldest room! Also, you also called people to bully me and tear my rabbit in half... “
——————
The Lantern Festival night in Cheng'an is already brightly lit, and there is a river in Cheng'an City, called Huangshui, which is connected with the artificially opened Grand Canal. At this time, there are all kinds of river lanterns floating on the Huangshui, which shines on the whole Huangshui and sparkles, echoing with the colorful lanterns hanging on the willow trees by the river, so it is not prosperous.
Now Cheng'an's night gossip
"Jiang Gou, you can't be faster, slow down!" Su Su ran in front of him and turned his head and shouted at Jiang Lili, "Look, there's a small restaurant over there, shall we go eat rice balls?"
Jiang Lili followed behind boredly, "Didn't you say that you came to see the lamp? What other rice balls do you eat? Besides, haven't you eaten them in the palace?"
"Oh, I just want to eat!" Su Su ran over and grabbed Jiang Lili's sleeve.
"Do you have any money?"
"No money!" Su Su replied very simply.
Jiang Lili's face was gloomy, "You don't have any money? Steward Yuan has to give you pocket money every month, a full hundred taels of silver, it's only the fifteenth at this time, you say you have no money?"
Su Su stuck out her tongue, "It's all to blame on the swallows, they have to pull me to play mahjong, I can't play, no, I've lost everything!"
Jiang Lili snorted coldly, "I don't know how many pounds and taels I dare to play mahjong with others?"
"Oh, what are you talking about so much?" walked up to a small stall, "Boss, come have a bowl of rice balls!"
The boss, an enthusiastic middle-aged woman, smiled and said, "How many bowls do you want for the little girl?"
Su Su turned her head to look at Jiang Lili, "Do you want it?" Before Jiang Lili could reply, Su Su turned her head and replied to the aunt, "He doesn't want it, a bowl is fine, I can't eat that much." ”
The corners of Jiang Lili's mouth twitched a little quickly.
"If you want to buy it, you can buy it yourself!"
Su Su was stunned, then turned around and looked at Jiang Lili with annoyance, "Do you want to buy it?"
"No money!" Jiang Lili replied coldly.
"Okay, Jiang Dog, you dare to bully me. Su Su was about to bring up the tirade again and said that Jiang Lili relented last time, and scolded helplessly: "Buy, buy, eat, eat, why don't you eat this thing to death!"
Su Su giggled, "That's pretty much it!"
I was afraid that I would miss the night view, so I didn't want to stay at this booth for long. So Su Su asked Jiang Lili to buy the bowl of chopsticks together, and ran around the streets with a bowl of rice balls.
Jiang Lili was very annoyed, and scolded and said that the aunt dared to sit on the ground and raise the price, a bowl of rice balls only costs ten yuan, and a pair of chopsticks costs thirty yuan!
Su Su listened to the game and muttered, "Isn't this only forty dollars in total?
"What do you know? Forty wen is not money?"
"How much is Forty Wen?" Su Su retorted: "You see that I lost if I said I lost a hundred taels of silver, am I not generous?"
Generous, generous!
Jiang Lili lost his temper.
He followed Su Su casually, looking at the crowd of cheers coming and going, and thought to himself, what is there to see here? A hillbilly who has never seen the world!
But as soon as she turned her head and saw Su Su's smiling face, Jiang Lili was startled, "Stinky girl, you're going to die!"
Su Su originally put her hands behind her back, but suddenly stretched out her right hand and smiled at Jiang Li.
"What?"
"Then the money is coming!" Su Su replied as a matter of course, and even shook his palms impatiently.
"What do you want money for?" Jiang Lili asked while taking out the money from his arms, "What about your Lantern Festival?
"No, it's not delicious, throw it away!"
Jiang Lili paused, scolded the losers, and reluctantly put two or three pieces of broken silver on Lai Susu's palm. Su Su stretched out his fingers and flicked the two pieces of broken silver twice, pouting, "It's just that?
Jiang Lili desperately resisted the action of slapping Su Su in the face, and asked, "Do you want to buy rice balls again?"
"No, buy a river lantern!"
Saying that, Su Su got into the crowd and disappeared without a trace, Jiang Lili scolded loudly: "If you get lost, Lao Tzu won't look for you!"
"It's done, it's done!" I heard a response from afar, followed by a bustling crowd.
He looked left and right casually, didn't think there was anything interesting, and was thinking about finding a place to sit down and wait for Su Su to come back, Jiang Lili turned around and saw a half-grown young man in brocade standing behind him, with an embroidered spring knife on his waist.
"Hey, I heard that you cried angrily at that girl of Wei Chijing!
Jiang Lili frowned, "Which one are you?"
The man smiled, "It's really a noble person who forgets things." ”
"It's not that bad to remember, it's just that some kittens and dogs can't remember, but it's true. ”
The man's face turned cold, "Just talk about it, I'll give you a reminder, do you remember that the two of us didn't compare knives in the plum garden that year!"
Jiang Lili thought about it, and seemed to remember something, so he smiled and said, "Oh, it's you, the defeated general?"
That man was Song Xiao.
Hearing the title of "defeated general", Song Xiao became angry, "Fart, if it weren't for my stupid girl that day, I would definitely beat you all over the ground to find your teeth!"
"Phew, my men are defeated!"
"Do you dare to say, come on, let's compete here to see who is the softie!"
"I'm better than you, are you worthy? I'm a loser!"
"You!"
"What are you?phew, your men are defeated!"
。。。
Song Xiao's face was bitter, "There is something wrong with you, I don't bother to tell you more!"
Looking at Song Xiao's resentment but unable to vent his grievances, Jiang Lili's mind that was messed up by Su Su was finally a little more comfortable, humming a little song that he didn't know where he heard it, looked left and right, and suddenly heard a shout, "Hey!"
Jiang Lili was startled, "If you die!"
Su Su giggled, and asked with interest, "Cheng, Jianggou, are you still humming a little tune?"
"It's your business!"
Looking down at the two river lanterns in Su Su's hands, "Finished buying?"
"Bought out. I picked the two biggest and most beautiful!" Su Su triumphantly, "Do you want one?" Everyone said that if you make a wish on the river lantern, it will come true!"
"Boring! I don't want this thing. Jiang Lili pursed his lips and strode forward.
"Hey, Jiang Dog, Sugar Gourd!" Su Su shouted excitedly.
Jiang Lili was a little annoyed, "You bought it yourself! I didn't give you any money!"
"It's gone!"
Jiang Lili sighed in her heart, and hurriedly asked, "I gave you about five or six taels!"
Su Su was ignorant, "It's gone, what's wrong?"
"Just buy two river lanterns and they're gone?"
Su Su nodded.
Jiang Li was angry, "Where did the profiteer come from? ! Girl, you take me there, Lao Tzu will cut him! I have never suffered this kind of loss since I was a child!"
Su Su was frightened, and hurriedly grabbed Jiang Lili's hand, "Oh, isn't it just a few taels of silver, what is it?" I'll just say that you are stingy, you see that I lost a hundred taels of silver, and you are angry like this for only a few taels of silver, man, you should be more relaxed!"
"Yo! I didn't expect to be a stingy master!"
Song Xiao didn't know where he came back from a circle, and heard Jiang Lili and Su Su's words, and sneered strangely on the side.
"Look, everyone is laughing at you. Su Su hurriedly said, suddenly stunned, "Who is this?"
Jiang Lili let go of Su Su's hand, "A defeated subordinate is not worth mentioning!"
Song Xiao was furious, "Can you not mention this?"
"Ah, it's really a defeated general!" Su Su frantically mended the knife and looked at Jiang Lili with an innocent face, "If you can still lose in your hands, then he is too much." ”
Song Xiao's face was full of indignation.
At this time, a young girl ran in front of him, it was Song Dabao, "Brother, I know that you are here, what are you doing hiding here?
Song Dabao ran over and found Jiang Lili and Su Su, a little excited, "Sister Susu, you are also here?" Turning his head to look at Jiang Lili, his face changed, "You, Shuang'er, that brother, why are you here?"
Jiang Lili wanted to hit someone.
"Wow, this river lantern is so beautiful!" Song Dabao was attracted by the river lantern in Su Su's hand, "Sister Su Su, where did you buy it? Can you tell me? I asked my brother to buy seven or eight too!"
Su Su was about to answer, but suddenly pointed at Song Xiao and said, "This is your brother?"
"That's right!" Song Dabao replied.
Su Su thought thoughtfully, "No wonder. ”
Song Xiao's fists were clenched.
"Dabao, where did you go?" There was another shout from behind, it was Yanzi.
"Here!" Song Dabao turned his head and waved his hand, and smiled at Su Su again: "Both of them are here!
"Okay, good!" Su Su shoved the two river lanterns into Jiang Lili's hand and hurriedly replied.
I saw a few fat and thin girls coming over, Song Dabao beckoned, and was suddenly stunned, "If it doesn't work, you guys hurry up, don't let them see it!"
Su Su was a little puzzled, "What's wrong?"
Song Dabao replied in a low voice: "Sister Wei Chi is also here!"
Oh, Su Su understood, and was about to pull Jiang Lili to leave quickly, Jiang Lili sneered: "That's it, girl, do you still want to make way for her? Don't lose my people!"
Jiang Lili's voice was extremely loud, and one of the girls who came over had a blue face.
Song Dabao shrugged his shoulders and gestured to Yanzi, who had a somewhat complaining face, You see? Shuang'er and his brother are too fierce, I can't do it, you can do it.
Song Xiao was happy, his body shrank back, and he posed as if he was watching a joke.
Su Su was a little overwhelmed.
Su Shuang hurriedly trotted over, and said to Jiang Lili with a slight complaint: "Brother, what are you talking about such things?"
Jiang Lili pursed her lips and did not speak.
One of them rushed over with a long sword in his hand, "You shameless dog thief, suffer death quickly!"
When the voice fell, a silver-white light flashed, but there was no trace in the reflection of the light.
There seemed to be a lot of silence around him, but there was still a lot of noise in the distance.
Lights, candlelight, and moonlight complement each other beautifully.
In the bustling streets of Cheng'an, the undercurrent is surging, and when you close your eyes, you can seem to hear the faint sound of swords, which comes from afar, endlessly.
Jiang Lili sneered, and secretly said that Cheng'an was really good at night.
