Chapter 217: What a sneeze
This time, not only the butler and the groom, but also the other family members heard about the things in the stable, and began to come over under various names to see what was new.
There were many onlookers around, and Ryoma Ao Qingchen also found that something was wrong, especially those individuals who were holding hay to feed her, and they were pointing and faintly hearing it.
"See, it's this horse~"
"Eh, it looks like the coat color is pure, and I don't see anything special?"
"You didn't come, this horse ate several baskets of forage just now!"
"What a few baskets~ I see that you didn't come early, but I heard the groom say, the half a month's worth of concentrate hoarded in our house has been eaten by it, and now it is feeding ordinary horse feed, and now it has been fed several baskets in. ”
"Eh~ I've heard that the housekeeper Chen Boke is betting with others, just bet on how much forage this white horse can eat......"
As soon as Ao Qingchen heard these words, he realized that what he had eaten in his stomach was enough for ordinary horses to eat for half a year, and he immediately panicked, and he didn't dare to eat it anymore no matter what others fed.
When the crowd around saw that the 'Shenma' was full, they suddenly lost interest, and muttered to themselves when they scattered in twos and threes
"How much forage do you think this white horse has eaten?"
"I've heard hundreds of baskets!"
"No, even if hundreds of baskets of forage are piled up, they are much larger than this white horse, how can they eat it?"
"Otherwise, it's evil~ But it seems that I'm full today, let's catch up early tomorrow and come to the stable early to occupy a place to see if we can meet and open our eyes......"
Not to mention what those family members who rushed to hear the news thought, anyway, the housekeeper and the horseman were shocked early, because the Kou Yuan believed in Buddhism, and the housekeeper Chen Bo also believed in some gods and monsters in order to cater to him, and at this time he obviously regarded the white horse as the legendary auspicious beast.
The horseman even secretly knelt down and kowtowed a few times at Longma Ao Qingchen, and said with words in his mouth: "I hope that Shenma can bless my Nahun family and leave me with a few lonely crutches in the coming year......"
The housekeeper was listening funny, thinking to himself, 'Asking for a son is to find Guanyin, how can you come to worship the god horse.' Thinking so in my heart, I was secretly making a wish, but the wish was very vague and unclear, so that people could not really hear it at all.
Now that the fourth lady has asked about the holy monk and his party, the housekeeper naturally knows everything, and he doesn't dare not mention the strangeness of the white horse.
When the fourth lady heard that even the horses were so strange, and thought of the appearance of the four people who had come to report the appearance of the four people before, she suddenly had a plan in her heart, so after comforting Kou Liang with kind words, she sent her youngest son back to the room to study.
He took a few maids to the dining hall uninvited, who dared to stop the fourth lady from being happy in this Kou Mansion, and directly let her break into the dining hall, and happened to hear the Kou staff say that no one was seen.
This dislikes to play the topic and suddenly brought his own mistake of breaking into the hall lightly, and as soon as he came, he firmly grasped the right to speak, and he was completely confused by the appearance of the outside.
The fourth lady was happy for a while, and complained: "Master, look at you, just care about drinking and asking me, but you have neglected a few holy monks who came from afar, and you don't want to introduce me quickly......"
There was no reason for the Kou staff not to be allowed, so he hurriedly took Ximei's hand and introduced them one by one.
Naturally, he started with the 'Master' Jin Chanzi and introduced: "This holy monk's Dharma name Jin Cicada is the guiding teacher of several other little masters. ”
The fourth lady saw the appearance and dress of the golden cicada clearly, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, as if she was shocked by the dignified demeanor of the golden cicada, and said softly in a dignified manner: "Ximei has seen the golden cicada elder, and it is very abrupt to come uninvited, and please don't blame the elder." ”
Jin Chanzi hurriedly said: "Don't dare!" got up and returned the salute.
In this way, Zhu Ganglie, who was introduced to the fluttering white, said: "Madam, this is ......"
The eyes of the fourth lady were resting on Zhu Ganglie's slender figure, and her handsome face swept back and forth, thinking that it was because of Zhu Ganglie's cultivation, she gently covered her face with her sleeved robe, and without waiting for the outside to finish speaking, she had already preemptively said: "Master, there is no need to say ~ This must be the eldest apprentice of Elder Jin Chan ~ Sure enough, he is a talent among the dragons and phoenixes among the people~"
A trace of embarrassment flashed on Kou Yuanwai's face, and he coughed and said, "Madam is wrong~ Wrong~ This is the second apprentice of the elder, not the eldest apprentice?"
The fourth lady had a surprised look on her face, "Oh, the second apprentice is already such a character and appearance, the elder's eldest apprentice must be even more amazing, the master quickly introduce the slave family~"
Hearing the fourth lady say this, Jin Chanzi and Kou Yuanwai invariably showed a trace of embarrassment on their faces, obviously both of them did not have a high evaluation of Wukong.
Embarrassment is embarrassment, Kou Yuanwai still walked to Wukong, who was sitting on a chair eating a piece of white jade melon, and the elder didn't seem to be aware of his arrival at all before meeting, and couldn't help coughing lightly.
It's a pity that he coughed and coughed, Wukong was still concentrating on dealing with his own melon, and when he raised his voice and coughed again, Sha Langlan next to him was also a little blind, and he rubbed the monkey with his elbow.
Wukong, the monkey, reluctantly stood up and said lazily: "I am the eldest apprentice of the golden cicada monk, Sun Wukong, who wants to see me soon, don't disturb your Uncle Sun to eat fruit......"
Speaking of this, his nose suddenly moved a few times, and then the laziness in his eyes seemed to fade a little, and the piece of melon that had been eaten most of it in his hand was thrown away casually, and looked at the few maids standing beside the fourth lady.
While watching, he sniffed something vigorously.
Seeing this, Sha Langlan tensed and asked, "Enlightenment...... Big brother, is there something wrong?"
Even the golden cicada, who was talking to the Kou, looked in this direction.
Wukong didn't care about answering, as if he felt that the distance was a little far away, and jumped directly from the small table in front of him, and threw himself at the place where the maids were.
But it was said that the four ladies were beautiful and fragrant, and the maids they were carrying around were also very smart, and they were stared at by Wukong, a reckless young man, and immediately hid behind the four ladies.
There is no way to know what the parties in such a scene think to outsiders, but from the perspective of a bystander, it is clear that the little monk Wukong has a bad heart.
In this way, he completely annoyed the fourth lady, and when he saw the fourth lady shake his sleeve robe fiercely, he swept his cloud sleeves to Wukong's face.
Not to mention the attack power that can almost not be mentioned by the woman waving her sleeves, Wukong's skills will never be able to touch the Dao of the Fourth Lady, and sure enough, the monkey just leaned back, and escaped the blow of the Fourth Lady's powerlessness.
Who knew that just let this cloud sleeve go, followed by a burst of strange fragrance straight to the door, Wukong didn't watch out for a big mouthful, only to feel dizzy and the whole nose was full of that greasy fragrance, and suddenly couldn't help but sneeze.
A sneeze happened to run in the direction of the fourth lady, Xu couldn't see his master being humiliated, and suddenly flashed out a few maids in front of the fourth lady, and was hit by Wukong's sneezing, even if Wukong spewed out no obvious dirt, he still couldn't help but cry......
The fourth lady raised her eyebrows and said: "What a little monk who has no rules, because our master still treats him politely, where is this monk, it is clearly a prodigal son, come on, report to the official now......"
When the housekeeper heard that the fourth lady was going to make trouble with the government, he immediately looked at the outside of the court in embarrassment.
Kou Yuanwai's face was also pale at this time, but he finally had a little sense to signal the housekeeper to retreat, and said to the golden cicada: "Holy monk, look at it, ......" Although he said so, his tone was much more indifferent than before, and it was obvious that his patience for Wukong's nonsense had reached a limit.
Jin Chanzi hurriedly said: "Forgive me, my apprentice has no father or mother, and he grew up in the mountains since he was a child, so he neglected to discipline his wife, and the poor monk is willing to apologize to his wife on his behalf." ”
As he spoke, he bowed in the direction of the fourth lady.
At this time, the strange fragrance in Wukong's nasal cavity still did not dissipate, and he couldn't stop sneezing one after another, and when he heard Jin Chanzi say this, he had the heart to retort, "I said...... Sneezing ...... Kim ......"
Zhu Ganglie was afraid that Wukong would say something annoying, so he hurriedly said to Sha Wildland: "Senior Brother Sha, Senior Brother seems to have contracted the wind cold, or you take him out to breathe first." ”
Sha Langlan also saw that the atmosphere was wrong, and dragged Wukong to the outside of the dining hall, but Wukong was still struggling.
A maid serving the fourth lady saw this scene and said, "Elder, I see that your disciple has no remorse at all, since he did this, he should come to apologize to my wife, how can the ......elder replace him?"
Before the maid finished speaking, the fourth lady had already scolded: "Shut up, how can you be rude to the elders!"
After reprimanding the maid, he said to the golden cicada: "Since the elder has spoken, let's assume that what happened just now has not happened, isn't the food already prepared, master, let's invite the elder to the table." ”
As he spoke, he said to the maids waiting beside him: "Okay, I don't need you to serve here, let's go back and freshen up, so as not to let others see the joke." ”
A group of maids took the order and left.
Only then did Kou Yuanwai take the hands of the fourth lady and lead Jin Chanzi and Zhu Ganglie to the inner room of the dining hall.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a bright and gold-lacquered table and a bright and dark lacquered chair.
The front is a five-color melon and fruit, not only the melons and fruits that were brought out to greet the guests are in it, but also some delicate new fruits are embellished among them, and the placement is exquisite.
