Chapter 7 (Part I) Pretty Woman Smoke Locks Kumho
Outside the window, I don't know when it snowed, and the thin layer reflected the West Lake like a fairyland. Although it is the cold winter season, this year's Lantern Festival is more lively than in previous years, because last year was a rare peaceful year, so there is an endless stream of tourists who come to the West Lake to watch the lanterns.
Lu Ya sighed softly outside the window, a white mist rose from the corner of his mouth, and the boy asked, "Why is Brother Ren sighing?"
Lu Ya said: "I sigh at the beautiful scenery, but there is no wine." How could he say that he was sighing at the woman's eyes beside him?
The boy said: "The wine has its own in this store, Xiao Er, come to a jar of daughter red." Hangzhou's fine wine naturally belongs to the daughter red, the dishes here are average, I like to drink the daughter red here, and the West Lake Longjing here is also very famous. ”
After a while, Xiao Er brought the wine, because he had just suffered a loss, he didn't dare to talk much this time, put the wine down and left, and when he left, he was careful not to trip over anything, so he was fine.
Lu Ya saw that the wine jar on the table was extremely exquisite, the altar body was smooth and shiny, there was a peony flower embroidered on it, and two butterflies flew around the flower, vividly, Lu Ya picked up the wine jar, looked at it carefully, and said to himself: "Why is the wine jar so fancy?"
I only heard the woman reply: "Daughter red is Shaoxing wine, legend is that the daughter was born on the day of brewing, and when she got married, she was sent as a dowry, so there are many flowers, birds, fish and insects carved on the altar, so it is also called flower carving." The peony engraved in this jar of wine has the meaning of wealth and wealth, and there are double butterflies flying, which is used as a dowry, not to mention that it has been aged for ten years. ”
Although the woman's speech was very crisp, there was nothing special about it, but Lu Ya felt that it was very pleasant to hear, just because of her eyes, Lu Ya felt that this woman was good everywhere. It's also that he rarely comes into contact with women, so he can't help but have some good feelings about this stunning girl he met when he first came out of the rivers and lakes. He hadn't seen the woman's full face, and the word stunning was just what he had in mind.
After hearing what the woman said, Lu Ya was a little flustered for some reason, and said casually: "I think the daughter of this winemaker died, or she didn't find her in-law's family, otherwise how could she sell the dowry in a good way?"
Everyone present laughed, Lu Ya only cared about the woman, she covered her face with a light veil, and the corners of her eyes were also smiling, listening to Lu Ya's words, looking down at the wine glass.
The boy said: "Brother Ren said that it was a joke, what my cousin said was just a legend, and there was more than one brewing wine in Shaoxing? ”
Lu Ya nodded yes, he didn't expect that his unintentional words could make everyone laugh, and he felt a lot closer.
The boy instructed the scholar to pour wine and asked, "Haven't you asked Brother Ren for his name?"
The scholar was pouring wine, Lu Ya stood up with the wine glass in both hands, and said: "Brother Tai is too polite, the word brother dare not be, the little surname is Lu ......" After thinking about it, Lu Ya's name is related to Yashan, and he had lived in the Yuan army for a period of time before, so he said that he would not tell him about his father's life experience, and he was not familiar with his life, so it was better not to cause trouble, so he changed his words: "His name is Buping, and he is eighteen years old this year." ”
The girl on the side suddenly laughed, but she couldn't help but make a sound, but this time she couldn't help it.
The boy looked displeased and said, "What are you laughing at?"
The girl said, "I laugh at his name." He laughed and laughed.
The boy was even more upset and asked, "What's so funny about the name?" ”
The girl seemed to be displeased with the child's displeasure and indifferent, and turned to Lu Ya and said, "The road is uneven, are you a cripple like your brother?
Lu Ya also thought that this name was quite strange, the master called the heart uneven, and he called the road uneven, but the third brother was a cripple, it was really funny, but the words had been spoken, and he couldn't take it back, so he said: "No way, maybe my mother fled when she was pregnant with me, and she took a lot of uneven roads." This is not true, Mrs. Lu was indeed displaced and suffered a lot when she was pregnant. Lu Ya's words were half of answering the girl's question, and half of them were also from feelings.
The boy said: "It turns out that you and I are the same age, and I am also eighteen years old this year, but I was born in the first month, so I should be older than you." ”
Lu Ya said: "I was born in August, so I should call Your Excellency Brother Ren." Brother Ren's surname?"
Childe smiled: "You're polite." Under the surname Xiao, Xiao Yutian. ”
Lu Ya said: "Brother Xiao's name is much more domineering than mine. Then he spread his palms to the top of the cheek, stretched them out to the scholar and the girl, and asked, "What are these two called?"
Childe pointed at the girl and said, "This is my cousin, Yin Lan, and this is one of my scholars, Jiang Hu." ”
As soon as Lu Ya heard that the scholar's surname was Jiang, he suddenly remembered a person, and then looked at Jiang Hu carefully, the more he looked at it, the more he looked like that person, but he was much younger, without a beard, and without the signboard-like scar, Lu Ya asked Jiang Hu: "Dare to ask where Brother Jiang is from?"
Jiang Hu didn't speak, and when he saw that Lu Ya didn't ask his son, but asked himself, he felt strange and said: "The youngest ancestral home is Duchang, Jiangxi, and he grew up in Suzhou since he was a child. ”
Lu Ya was convinced that this Jiang Hu must be Jiang Cheng's descendant, he was very familiar with Jiang Cheng when he was a child, Jiang Cheng's angular face was like a knife cut, how could he forget? Maybe Uncle Jiang is still in the world? After the Battle of Yashan in those years, he was stationed on land, so he was never killed? But how can I recognize this Jiang Hu? If Uncle Jiang is not dead, Jiang Hu is respectful to Xiao Yutian and Yin Lan, who are they? If Uncle Jiang is dead, Jiang Hu is full of martial arts, how can he be reduced to the current people? A series of questions, Lu Ya couldn't answer, and looked at Jiang Hu over and over again.
Jiang Hu saw that Lu Ya had been looking at him, but he was a little uncomfortable, and asked, "Why is the uncle staring at the little one?"
Lu Ya said: "It's nothing, I see you look like a hero I knew before." ”
Jiang Hu said: "Oh, a few days ago, someone said that I looked like a thief, and they arrested me and sent me to live in the government for two days. ”
When Lu Ya heard it, this Jiang Hu's speech seemed to be very vulgar, but Lu Ya knew that what he said was not the truth, and he didn't pierce it, and said with a smile: "Where did you say it?" I see that your face will be rich and noble in the future, and you will be handsome. ”
Xiao Yutian and Jiang Hu were all stunned, Lu Ya saw it in his eyes, but he was silent, picked up the wine glass and drank alone.
Xiao Yutian said: "What kind of handsome talent is he, just a rough man." ”
Lu Ya thought to himself, Jiang Hu's answer was simply to hide his identity, so as not to suspect that he was a rough person, he was very careful. Lu Ya smiled slightly: "With such a face, this thing is not accurate." ”
Xiao Yutian said: "Brother Lu can still look at his face, I actually don't believe this." ”
Yin Lan was quite interested, and said, "You want to see the appearance for me?"
Lu Ya turned his face and saw Yin Lan looking at him, he actually panicked, and he didn't know what Lu Dao was doing, and there seemed to be a deer in his heart, so he pretended to be calm and said: "Miss Yin is peerless, and she will live a long life in the future, and she will be blessed and long-lived." ”
Yin Lan smiled: "It's really like a birthday greeting." You can't even see my face, how can you calculate accurately?"
Seeing Yin Lan looking at herself, Lu Ya lowered her head and said, "Exactly, I'm just talking nonsense, looking at fortune-telling and everything is to pick good things to say, where can I believe it." ”
Yin Lan was a little unhappy when she heard this, and said, "Then what you said about my blessings and longevity is false?"
Lu Ya said: "What I said must come true." Yin Lan covered her mouth with her hand lightly, and seemed to be smiling again, in fact, she was wearing a veil, even if she smiled, others couldn't see her teeth, this action was just a habit.
At this time, another table of Dongpo meat had already been served, and the three people at that table didn't care about anything else, just ate meat and drank wine, and didn't use chopsticks, they reached out and grabbed it, making their hands and faces full of oil.
Seeing this, Xiao Yutian asked, "These heroes are also very interesting, can Brother Lu Xian introduce me to me." ”
Lu Ya replied: "Those are my senior brothers, the big one is called Chen Yihua, the small and thin one is called Fu Ertan, and the lame one is called Xie San'an." ”
Xiao Yutian was shocked: "I saw that Brother Lu Xian and the lame man made an extraordinary move, and it turned out to be the disciple of Jiangnan hero Xin Buping. ”
Lu Ya said: "Does Brother Xiao also know my master's name?"
Xiao Yutian said: "No one knows the name of Jiangnan Hero, even his three apprentices are also famous in the rivers and lakes, but the name of Lu Xiandi has never been heard. ”
Lu Ya said: "I am a close disciple of the master, and I never walk around, so I am not as famous as my senior brother. ”
Xiao Yutian said with a smile: "Why don't you invite them to come and sit together?"
Lu Ya said: "My senior brothers are rude people and don't know etiquette, but they are more comfortable and happy to eat and drink by themselves over there." ”
In fact, Xiao Yutian didn't like it when he saw the appearance of the three of them gobbling up, coupled with the dirty clothes, but just said some polite words on the surface, so he changed the topic and said: "I see, this Dongpo meat is indeed very fragrant, can Brother Lu Xian know the origin of Dongpo meat?"
Lu Ya said: "That is naturally created by Su Dongpo." The younger brother has never eaten it. ”
Xiao Yutian said: "It is Su Shi who created, it is said that when Su Shi was an official in Hangzhou, Taihu Lake flooded, Su Shi led the military and civilians to relieve the disaster, and the people of Hangzhou thanked Su Dongpo, so they called the embankment built by Su Shi 'Su Causeway', and gave it away with wine, and Su Shi gave back a large piece of square meat, so the meat was named Dongpo meat. However, the little two said that the Dongpo meat in his hotel was the most delicious, but it was not true, the best Dongpo meat should be Xuzhou, and Su Dongpo was created when he was an official in Xuzhou. ”
Lu Ya said: "I didn't expect Hangzhou to have so many connections with Master Su, Brother Xiao is really knowledgeable." ”
Xiao Yutian said with a smile: "Where do you come from, these stories are known to a generation of women and children in Hangzhou, and they are nothing. Why don't we also order a so-called 'Dongpo meat' to taste? ”
Lu Ya said: "That's very good. It's time for Brother Xiao to break the bank. ”
"Where do you come from? Xiao Yutian waved his hand and beckoned Xiao Er to also serve a portion of Dongpo meat.
Yin Lan said: "This Dongpo meat, it needs to be simmered, put less water, and then stuffy for a while when it is cooked, and then it will be delicious, we have to eat authentic Dongpo meat, but we have to wait for a long time." ”
Lu Ya said: "Could it be that Miss Yin is also proficient in cooking?"
Yin Lan said: "It's not proficient, I have loved these miscellaneous knowledge since I was a child." ”
Xiao Yutian said: "My cousin is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, female celebrity cooking, and medicine and starring. She told you that she was not proficient, but she said it politely. ”
A few people continued to talk about some of the customs of Hangzhou, Lu Ya opened up a lot of horizons, Xiao Yutian and others saw that Lu Ya didn't seem to have much experience, but felt that there was no barrier, so they told some strange things, and Lu Ya also listened to it with relish.
Not long after, the Dongpo meat has been served, Lu Ya saw that the Dongpo meat was held in a small jar, neatly arranged into nine pieces, the color was bright red, divided into three layers, the upper layer of meat skin was crystal clear, there was a section of fat meat below, the bottom layer was the fine meat, and it trembled slightly when touched with chopsticks. Lu Ya picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, it melted in his mouth, and his mouth was full of fragrance, Lu Ya had never eaten so delicious on the mountain all year round, and he really felt that the Dongpo meat of this store was worthy of its name.
Lu Ya said: "It tastes good, this is the best thing I've ever eaten when I've grown so big, Brother Xiao should also try it." ”
Yin Lan said with a smile: "This is not the best, it is actually not the best yet, if you want to eat the best Dongpo meat, I am afraid it will have to be simmered for another hour, so the Dongpo meat in this store is not very good." ”
Lu Ya said: "It's already delicious for me." ”
Xiao Yutian looked outside and said, "It's not early now, wait for the lantern festival in West Lake, why don't you go with us to enjoy the lanterns?"
Lu Ya thought to himself, Master told us to make less trouble, my senior brothers are all troublemakers, it's better not to cause trouble to others, and I want to refuse. How do you know that Fu Ertan heard Lian clapping his palms and shouted: "Okay, we are here to watch the lanterns this time, just all the way." ”
Lu Ya complained bitterly in his heart, and he couldn't refuse politely, so he had to agree.
A few people drank Huadiao, ate Dongpo meat, and talked loudly, Lu Ya talked about the naval battle of Yashan from time to time, Xiao Yutian also sighed, but Jiang Hu never said a word, so the sky was dark unconsciously.
The light snow is intermittent, the snow on the road has already melted, but there is a layer of faint silver frost in the willows on the shore, and a thin light mist is shrouded around the Su Causeway.
Lu Ya and others were in a good mood, talking about the beautiful scenery of the West Lake, Xiao Yutian said: "The West Lake was outside the city of Hangzhou, Hangzhou is surrounded by mountains on three sides, it was a big town in ancient times, after the Mongol invasion of the Central Plains, the city wall was expanded, and the West Lake naturally entered the city. ”
Lu Ya said: "The entry of the Mongols into the Central Plains seems to have changed a lot here, but the customs here are still the same as in the past, who would have thought that the world is already Mongolian?"
Xiao Yutian sighed and said: "Yes, fortunately, Zhang Hongfan tried his best to protect these customs and habits back then, otherwise today's Lantern Festival may have to drink mare's milk and eat mutton." ”
Yin Lan said: "So that Zhang Hongfan is a good person?"
Xiao Yutian said: "He is a good person, and there are no bad people in the world." The fact that he is the enemy of the Han people cannot be changed even after thousands of years. ”
When several of them talked about the rise and fall of the country, they all sighed for a long time. But the other table only cares about the cups and drinks, and the three people at that table are naturally reckless, who cares about the chaos of heaven and earth, how to think about the bitterness and sorrow of the world, but it is precisely because they are simpler than ordinary people, but they seem to be happier.
