Golden Pink Building

Ouyang Yujian watched Qingqiu come out, his eyes lit up and he said with his hands behind his back: "I came to see you. I didn't want to disturb you, but your personality has always been very dull. What's the good of reading dead books at home all day? I'm worried When school starts, your mind will be as rigid as granite. I'd better come here and pull you out of the pile of old books." Qingqiu listened to Ouyang Yujian's words and smiled bitterly to herself, what was her life in Grand View Garden before If it weren't for her mother's illness, she would definitely not be bored at home all day this winter vacation and not go out to do needlework. Who can understand?In Ouyang's eyes, it has become a defect.It's just that she can't afford the life that Ouyang Yujian appreciates.

Teacher Ouyang came into the house and sat down. It seemed that the Chinese New Year was coming soon. Although our family was small in population, my uncle's colleagues and relatives still had to socialize and walk around.The weather is not good either, my mother cannot be physically affected, and I cannot go out.The harmed Mr. Ouyang made a trip in vain.Qingqiu calmly declined Ouyang's kindness, and politely invited him in to sit down.Mother Han came out holding the couplets written by Qingqiu in the morning, and she called Qingqiu: "Girl has no free time in the morning, and I dare not disturb. I can't read, and the couplets were messed up by my man. Good girl, help me." Let me see which one is posted on the left and which one is posted on the right?"

Ouyang looked at the couplet held in Han Ma's hand, and reached out to take it over for a closer look: "Your handwriting is good, but the meaning is too pedantic. Or is it loyal and handed down for a long time, and the poems and books will last forever? Paste it on the gate and be read. The joke is dead. There is also the Renzeng years, the days increase the life, what is the weather in the country today, is it interesting for you to still praise the saints here?"

Qingqiu was already a little uncomfortable being robbed by Ouyang.In the morning Mrs. Leng told Qingqiu's uncle to go home to write Spring Festival couplets and Dou Fang, and she volunteered.In fact, according to Qingqiu's talent, what kind of good couplets can't be written?It's just that writing couplets in Qingqiu and Ming New Year is not a time to show off your talents and learning. Couplets are for people passing by on the road. She doesn't want to be pointed at in front of her house.Mrs. Leng has always been conservative, and she prefers such auspicious words.So Qingqiu didn't bother, just wrote couplets according to Mrs. Leng's and uncle's preferences. "I don't agree with what you said. Why is student Ouyang thinking about Qingqiu's family today? It's almost the Chinese New Year. Do you help the family prepare?" Bai Shaoyi came out with Qingqiu's coat and put it on her: "You didn't wear a coat. Just come out, be careful and freeze." Bai Shaoyi purposely got very close to Qingqiu in front of Ouyang Yujian.

Sure enough, seeing Bai Shaoyi and Qingqiu's intimate behavior, Ouyang Yujian's face turned dark immediately, but he couldn't say anything. Ouyang Yujian held back his stomach, and said in a strange way: "I'm not very knowledgeable, I'd like to hear more about it. I'm not saying Qingqiu's writing is not good, but I have pasted this couplet in front of countless houses along the way, it is too tacky. As a young man in the new era, how can he still hold a decadent moral view." Looking at Ouyang Yujian With the posture of giving a speech, Bai Shaoyi immediately smiled and waved her hands: "Don't, Ouyang classmate is going to criticize my decadent ideas. In fact, the Spring Festival is a long-standing festival. According to your thinking, the old calendar years are old things that need to be reformed." Get rid of it, where is it possible to post couplets and prepare for the festival? I believe that Qingqiu can write more elegant couplets at will, but couplets are for people passing by on the street, especially for Qingqiu’s mother and uncle. Their aesthetic concept is different from that of young people. It is natural to please the elders on big festivals. Why bother to seize the day and make everyone unhappy. Han Mama, let me tell you, the older ones should stick outside the door, by the way, This one is pasted on the left hand side." Bai Shaoyi stepped forward to take the couplet from Ouyang's hand and instructed Han Ma to paste it.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Mama Han muttered: "Mr. Bai is right. In the morning, our girl said that she was going to write couplets, but my uncle kept on talking for a long time. He insisted that the girl's writing is not good, and I want to have a happy New Year's Eve. After the girl wrote it, my uncle believed it. He also praised our girl for her improved handwriting." Mother Han couldn't figure out why the two gentlemen didn't deal with each other, and murmured her doubts.In her opinion, Qingqiu is the best, and the couplets she wrote have the best meaning and the best characters.

Ouyang Yujian didn't expect to be blocked back by Bai Shaoyi calmly, his face was ugly for a while, he stared at Qingqiu, who knew that Qingqiu didn't look at him, but pointed to Han Ma to paste all kinds of couplets with blessings on them .Bai Shaoyi stood beside Qingqiu with her hands behind her back, either talking to Han Ma or helping her pass things.Bai Shaoyi saw that Han Ma was holding a banner saying "look up and see you" to be pasted on the doorframe of Song Runqing's house. Bai Shaoyi said to Han Ma, "You might as well stick it on your wife's door, and your uncle's door should be pasted." It would be more appropriate to go up three levels in a row." As Bai Shaoyi was about to find out from a pile of banners, Qingqiu couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't look for it, I didn't write it at all. It's my fault that I forgot. I haven’t seen my uncle write this. When I think about it, he feels embarrassed. No wonder I wrote the couplet this morning. He lingered and refused to go out, as if he had something to say. I’ll go and see if there is any red paper left. Write it to him."

Song Runqing is a bit talented, but unfortunately he is unlucky, and he doesn't know how to speculate, so he has only been a small employee in his life.Every year before the New Year's Eve when he made an offering to the Buddha, he would silently recite a few blessings from the Buddha in his heart, asking him to be promoted.Mother Han slammed her mouth: "Don't look for it, girl, come over to the Zhang family at the opposite door and ask if there is any red paper. I will give them all the rest."

Qingqiu said helplessly: "You really have no calculations, although a few red papers are nothing. But the red papers and red envelopes on the New Year's ceremony have not been found, and now I don't know if the stationery store is closed." No wonder Rongguo Mansion has a huge warehouse At the end of the year, the shops will be closed for rest, so everyone is very busy before the end of the year, and they need to store food, vegetables and some messy things for these days.Seeing that many shops are closed for the holiday, Qingqiu wonders if any stationery shops are still open.

"Don't worry, I don't have a lot of red paper sprinkled with gold, just bring it to you." Bai Shaoyi immediately solved Qingqiu's problems, turned around and started to go back to get the red paper, Qingqiu couldn't help calling Bai Shaoyi: " You still put on your coat and let it freeze carefully. In fact, you don’t need to worry too much, anyway, you will come to borrow things tomorrow. Just think about it and bring them together.” Qingqiu obviously provoked with a teasing tone Bai Shaoyi smiled.Ouyang Yujian looked at Qingqiu and Bai Shaoyi standing under the wintersweet tree in the yard, and felt more and more that he was a redundant outsider. When did Qingqiu and Bai Shaoyi become so familiar.

Ouyang Yujian felt that his heart was blocked by a big rock, and he felt uncomfortable when he looked at it. By the way, Bai Shaoyi has a decent position, and his family is even more prominent. The Bai family and the Jin family are relatives. Based on blood relationship, this person is still Where is his cousin?From anyone's point of view, Bai Shaoyi is much stronger than himself.Qingqiu really thinks so, who thought she was extraordinary, but who knows that Qingqiukong has the appearance of a fairy in the world, but like other women in her heart, she values ​​money and power more.

While talking to Qingqiu, Bai Shaoyi quietly observed the hated Ouyang Yujian, seeing Ouyang Yujian's face getting darker and darker, and finally blending into the city with his black tunic suit, Bai Shaoyi felt an indescribable joy in his heart and excited.Hmph, this Ouyang Yujian is nothing more than a radical thinker. The most annoying thing is that he is very self-righteous, thinking that he is always right. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is his extreme inferiority that leads to extreme self-confidence, and self-confidence is a bit arrogant.He has never been willing to see the truth clearly, but hastily and easily draw conclusions according to his own ideas, and does not allow any objections from others.

In fact, Qingqiu doesn't care about any external conditions, it's just that Ouyang Yujian's character is really out of tune with Qingqiu.Looking at Ouyang Yujian's expression, maybe he would think in his heart how he cheated Qingqiu's affection by relying on his power and money, and even angered Qingqiu for taking a fancy to his family background.But Bai Shaoyi didn't bother to correct Ouyang Yujian's prejudice, he calmly approached Qingqiu, asked about the customs of Qingqiu New Year, and made the three corpses of Ouyang angry jump up, wishing to go up and punch him directly to relieve his hatred.

Waiting for Qingqiu to wake up from Bai Shaoyi's [-] New Year's reasons, he suddenly found that Ouyang Yujian had disappeared a long time ago, Qingqiu complained to Han Mama and said: "Han Mama, you are getting more and more confused. Invite him to come in first and pour tea for the guests. Mr. Ouyang hasn’t entered the room to sit for a while after leaving, it’s okay to post couplets or something after you’re free, you really are!” Qingqiu seems to be complaining about Han Ma, more like Blame yourself for neglect.

Someone suddenly grabbed Qingqiu's hand and gently twisted it. Bai Shaoyi came close to her ear at some point, and his warm breath hit Qingqiu's face and ears: "It would be great if he could stay and drink tea and socialize." It's strange. You can't see Ouyang Yujian's mind clearly, are you deliberately making my stomach acid reflux. "

"Mr. Bai is not feeling well? It's easy to have acid reflux in your stomach. I'll go and give you that steamed bun baked on the stove. It's burnt brown and fragrant. You can eat it. My wife will invite you to dinner tomorrow. I want to tell my wife." Don’t put vinegar in the cold dishes.” Han’s mother made a wonderful move, and made Qingqiu and Bai Shaoyi laugh and cry. Qingqiu stomped her feet and spat at Han’s mother: “Hanma, you’d better go to the kitchen to have a look. Is the porridge ready tonight?"

This Spring Festival Leng's family is going very well. Mrs. Leng is recovering from a serious illness, but her body is almost recovered, and her complexion is obviously much better. Song Runqing doesn't sigh at home all day long, feeling that she is unappreciated for her talent, but she is doing nothing. Opening a newspaper, humming Peking opera, enjoying the leisurely holiday, he was full of praise for Qingqiu, and kept saying: "I'm still a bit lucky, having a niece like Qiu'er is better than my promotion. I am the most face-saving person in the bureau now, and I have to give three points of face even when the director comes in." Waiting for Qingqiu to look at him suspiciously, Song Runqing explained with flickering eyes: "Even the director's daughter didn't After entering the university, my niece is a college student. They all admire me!"

Mrs. Leng smiled disapprovingly. She looked at her daughter and swallowed the words that came to her lips.Qingqiu has neither the time nor the mood to slowly appreciate the meaning behind Song Runqing's words. She wants to embroider this peony picture before the Spring Festival.According to the old rules, no needlework is allowed from the first to the fifth day of the new year. Her embroidery has more aura and charm than ordinary embroiderers, and the boss of the embroidery shop is willing to pay more to buy it.

In the afternoon of thirty, Qingqiu was finishing the finishing work in front of the embroidery frame, when there was a sound of footsteps, she looked up and saw Bai Shaoyi hurried in.The Chinese New Year is coming, and there are many things in the Bai family, Bai Shaoyi always needs shelves to help her mother with the New Year's affairs, he hasn't been here for the past few days, without Bai Shaoyi's visit, Qingqiu actually feels a little deserted. "What are you doing here at this time? But there is something important." It was New Year's Eve at night, Bai Shaoyi's house must be very busy, why did he come here in such a hurry?What does the Bai family have? He wouldn't cross half of Beijing and come to the Leng's to borrow things again?

"I, you have embroidered this, you put this away, my mother will come to see you in the third year of junior high school. She will definitely give you lucky money and gifts, and you just take it to return the gift. You can't give it away again Give it to the embroidery shop, I will negotiate with the boss of the embroidery shop, and I will pay the liquidated damages." Bai Shaoyi seemed to be in a hurry, and made such a call out of breath and without thinking.

Seeing that Qingqiu was still a little ignorant, Bai Shaoyi continued to explain: "My mother prepared the bracelet that her mother handed down to her as lucky money for you. You should understand what she means. I think you may not have made up your mind, but she You can’t refuse a gift for you. I’ll go back and knock on her ear and tell her to slow down. Anyway, she likes you very much. It’s another good thing not to give you the ancestral bracelet. You might as well give this She, the value is equal, no one is taking advantage of the other, and if you are dissatisfied in the future, you will not be wronged, and you will not be talked about with money."

Qingqiu didn't understand what Bai Shaoyi meant, and her heart suddenly felt hot. The Leng family and the Bai family have very different backgrounds. What she worried most was that others would say that the Leng family only clings to them because of their wealth.Bai Shaoyi didn't need to talk about it. When she accepted Mrs. Bai's things, it would be equivalent to accepting the man's betrothal gift for no apparent reason. Even if she married Bai Shaoyi in the future, she would have to bow down.Who knows that Bai Shaoyi can think about herself and protect herself all the time, Qingqiu's heart warms up, and she said softly: "You just don't want me to be at the mercy of others, or is it that what you don't want in your heart is different from what the elders think?"

Hearing Qingqiu's words, Bai Shaoyi was stunned for a moment, various expressions circled on his face, and finally fixed on the surprise, Bai Shaoyi's excited eyes were brighter than light bulbs, he froze for a moment, then pounced on him Holding Qingqiu's hand: "Why don't I want to marry you, I'm just worried that you will dislike me!"

Without waiting for Qingqiu's response, her lips felt hot, and Bai Shaoyi's face magnified infinitely in front of Qingqiu's eyes.
