Chapter 11 Ruyu
When Xu Xian woke up again, it was already dark, and it didn't hurt to touch his head, but he was very thirsty.
This table is a pleasure.
"Brother Xu, are you awake? There is herbal tea on the table. Under Pan Yu's guidance, Xu Xian drank a few glasses of water again, and looked around. Seeing that Pan Yu was leaning against the window to read a book, he turned the last page and turned back to Xu Xian and smiled: "Brother Xu is really a good poem!"
The sky was dark, the layout in the house was antique, Xu Xian was still reminiscing about the past life in the dream, and couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the words: "What poem?"
Pan Yu read aside the poem that Xu Xian chanted when he was drunk, and praised it again. Xu Xiancai understood the reason, and hurriedly shirked it: "Where do I have such a poetic talent, this was chanted to me by a Taoist priest from Youfang when I was a child." After thinking about it, he said, "Brother Pan, don't tell others about this poem." ”
Pan Yu was puzzled, if this poem was spread, it would definitely be a good poem that was well-known all over the world, and the person in front of him not only said that he didn't do it himself, but also asked him not to say it, which was really strange. However, he thought about it, this poem is good, but it inevitably gives people the impression that he is addicted to alcohol, and it may not be a good thing for his career, so he is relieved. I feel that Xu Xian is unfathomable.
"Please rest assured, Brother Xu, I will definitely keep it a secret for Brother Xu. ”
Xu Xian thanked him, and said with a smile: "We are like Brother Xu, Brother Pan's title is too tired." We might as well just call me Xu Xian by name. ”
"My word is Mingyu, and Brother Hanwen calls me Mingyu. ”
"Beauty is like jade?" Xu Xian showed a strange look.
"No, it's a gentleman like jade. Pan Yu immediately corrected the way.
Xu Xian smiled: "You are the best of both worlds, and the beauties and gentlemen let you take advantage of them." ”
But he didn't want Pan Yu to say with a straight face: "I'm a seven-foot man with Pan Yu, please Brother Xu or don't make such jokes, otherwise please Brother Xu call me Pan Yu."
Xu Xian hurriedly apologized, he guessed that the more handsome a man cared about this! However, Xu Xian secretly thought in his heart that this Pan Yu Gongzi was also like jade when he was angry. As for the words of a beautiful gentleman, he didn't dare to mention it again.
As he spoke, it was already completely dark.
The Hajj Academy selects materials for the country, and these young talents can be regarded as key investments, and the expenses for food and housing are all used in the treasury. Xu Xian can also get a sum of silver grain from Qiantang County every year, which is a bit of a scholarship. This is the county that sees Xu Xian's bright future, and spends the public's money, so he has a good fate.
After more than ten years, Xu Xian finally had some spare money, but it was only a few dimes of broken silver, which could probably be regarded as a shame for the world's travelers. He himself is quite satisfied, he has cultivated a lot of money in his previous life for more than ten years, and he can't help but squander it when he has just a little money in this life.
"Mingyu, how about I treat you back tonight!"
Pan Yu wanted to marry Xu Xian, so naturally he would not refuse. So Xu Xian led Pan Yu around the West Lake, but they were all good restaurants, Xu Xian touched his money bag, smiled bitterly in his heart, and could only continue to walk.
Pan Yu has a seven-trick exquisite heart, where can he not see Xu Xian's thoughts, but he is not easy to speak, and he is just secretly funny when he looks at it on the side. After walking for a long time, Xu Xian suddenly became excited, and when he saw a tavern in front of him, he suddenly felt like a treasure, but he was a little hesitant and embarrassed for a while.
Pan Yu said with a smile: "Brother Hanlin is a knowledgeable person at first glance, Hangzhou's famous food is in these small shops with horns and corners, don't look at the luxury of those restaurants, but the real flavor is still authentic in these places." ”
Xu Xian is not stupid, and understands that Pan Yu is rounding the field for himself. But at this point, he opened his heart and said casually: "Today, I am shy in my pocket, and when I am broad, I will definitely invite you Ruyu to have a meal in the most expensive restaurant in Hangzhou." ”
This person has not yet made a fortune, and he first has a three-point atmosphere of nouveau riche. This should have been a tone that Pan Yu hated, but when this poor scholar said it, it made him feel straightforward and cute.
smiled and quipped: "Hehe, don't feel sorry for the silver when the time comes, and I won't spare the shyness in my pocket." ”
Xu Xianlian said no, the two entered the store, ordered a few side dishes, and did not drink. After serving the tea, Pan Yu tasted it and stopped drinking it, he had never drunk such a bad tea since he was a child, and he had never been to such a place.
The business of this wine shop is not bad, the sound of the guests scribbling and laughing, the sound of the shopkeeper ushering in the send-off, and the voice of the little two shouting and complaining are intertwined, making people feel that this small store has accumulated a breath of heat, tacky, and popularity.
It's just that at the same time, it's also very noisy, Pan Yu couldn't help frowning slightly, Xu Xian noticed that he couldn't help but regret in his heart, Pan Yu, who was clean in green clothes and long hair like ink, sat in this wine shop, and really had a feeling of white dust. Just sitting there, but feeling out of place with your surroundings.
Xu Xian sighed and said: "An Neng is white and white, staining the dust of the world. Let's switch to another one. But it is to quote a sentence from Qu Yuan's "The Fisherman".
Pan Yu smiled and shook his head slightly: "It's all the water of the waves, the hustle and bustle of this earthly world, you can't avoid it anywhere, it's all people in the world, who can be spotless?"
When the dish came up, the small plate was still clean and exquisite, which made Xu Xian quietly breathe a sigh of relief. Xu Xian was not too hungry except for eating and drinking at noon. Pan Yu was busy socializing, and he was really hungry. Eating these coarse tea and light rice in small bites, I really feel that there is a different flavor.
Xu Xian looked at it, and four words suddenly popped up in his heart, elegant to the bone. This is the so-called Oriental aristocracy in the previous life! polite but free and easy. It is far from being comparable to those Western aristocrats in the previous life who cared about the vintage of red wine and the taste of clothing. Noble, just because it carries a thousand-year-old cultural heritage.
After dinner, Pan Yu first took a sip of tea and rinsed his mouth, then took out a plain white handkerchief to wipe his mouth, and finally pursed his lips lightly, and smiled at Xu Xian and said, "I'm done, thank you for your hospitality." ”
Xu Xian was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and said in his heart: "It would be good if this Pan Yu was a woman." But he quickly shook his head, and said to himself in his heart, this is "The Legend of the White Snake", not "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai", and silently recited "I am a man" ten times before getting up to pay the bill.
A pair of silver eyes next to him have been nailed here since the two of them walked in, and at this time, the wine is surging, and they can't bear it anymore. Seeing that it was just two weak scholars, he simply walked over and said, "Such a beauty is really rare." As he spoke, he stretched out a pair of big rough hands towards Pan Yu's chin. Several people at the table with him immediately slapped the table and whistled.
"Bang!" Not only did the whistles at the table stop abruptly, but even the noise in the wine shop was also stopped. Focus on Xu Xian.
Xu Xian stood up, full of anger, holding the bench he was sitting on just now, the obscene middle-aged man was sitting on the ground at the moment, covering his head in a daze, blood flowed out of his hands, and he didn't moan, but he was beaten on the head by the solid wood bench, and he began to moan after a while.
Everyone didn't expect such a weak scholar to say that he would do it, without the slightest warning. Even Pan Yu, who was as calm as usual when he stretched out his hand, looked at Xu Xian in surprise with his mouth slightly open at this time, is this really a scholar?
The middle-aged man's accomplices came over one after another, and shouted repeatedly: "Brother, brother." ”
The middle-aged man covered his head with one hand and pointed at Xu Xian with the other, "Kill him for me." His accomplices immediately gathered around him.
Xu Xian was not afraid, and said loudly: "I am a talent of the Pilgrimage Academy, a person with meritorious reputation, dare to touch me, are you not afraid of a thousand cuts?"
The man on the ground howled, "Kill him." His accomplices were fixed on the only one at the table who had not moved. The man looked like a scribe, and after a deep groan, he waved his hand, and a group of people helped the wounded man on the ground to withdraw, and the man was still arguing, and the scribe's cold gaze swept over him, and he immediately covered his head and stopped talking.
Xu Xian held the bench and guarded it carefully from beginning to end, and he was relieved until everyone had withdrawn. Turning his head to Pan Yudao, who was sitting there safely, "You didn't see the gesture I made just now?"
Fine beads of sweat oozed from Xu Xian's forehead at this time, but Pan Yu looked leisurely.
Pan Yu blinked and pretended to be puzzled: "What gesture?" Just now, Xu Xian kicked with one hand and kept gesturing to Pan Yu's envoy with the other hand under the table, but Pan Yu couldn't see it.
Xu Xian hurriedly said: "Let you run!"
Pan Yu smiled and said: "Brother Hanwen is a hero, shocking the group, what am I running?"
Xu Xian said: "Those are not ordinary ruffians at first glance, and a few of them are still touching them in their arms, and they are carrying guys at first glance." These outlaws can do anything, and if you don't stop them, you won't be in danger of your life. ”
Pan Yu said with a smile: "Wouldn't I lose your momentum when I ran away, and let you have a risk of your life." ”
Xu Xian was really helpless with the jade gentleman in front of him, and sighed: "That's it, that's it, it's not early, let's go back!"
The two walked out of the wine shop talking and laughing, and a pair of eyes in the corner stared at them, saw the direction they were going, and hurried away.
"Your bench is really earth-shattering, and it moves ghosts. It's just that if the identity of our Hajj Academy is revealed at the beginning, they won't dare to act rashly, and it won't be good if you provoke them at that moment. ”
Xu Xian shook his head and said: "Mingyu, you have been born in the golden house since you were a child, you don't understand these people, you bully the soft and fear the hard, you reason with him, he still thinks you are afraid of him." If you don't give him a slap in the face, you really think that we are weak and can be bullied, and they will gain an inch. ”
Pan Yu lowered his head thoughtfully, and finally raised his head and smiled: "What about too?"
