Sauerkraut Cuttlefish
Chapter 34
Three days later, Su Wan stepped onto the boat she called "the thief ship".
There were many more people coming to the party this time than last time, so there were three boats, each with two floors.The first floor is used to eat and shelter from the rain, and the second floor is used to enjoy the scenery.Su Wan's ship was the one with the most people, and those who came were basically the few people he had seen in Xuanyaju last time.
The weather was fine today, so Su Wan turned against the guests this time and took Liu Qianxue directly to the second floor.The wind on the second floor was a bit strong, Su Wan took the cloak prepared by Yiqing and felt much more comfortable covering her body.
"Small wine is warming downstairs, I'll ask them to bring some up." Liu Qianxue's teeth were chattering from the cold, and even though she was wrapped in a thick cloak, her face hurt from the cold wind, so she suggested.
"Okay." Su Wan was wrapped in a cloak, her face flushed with boredom.After taking a few breaths of cold air, she felt that her throat was very dry and sore. Hearing this, she swallowed subconsciously, curious. She hadn't tried the reheated wine that was often written about in this book.
Arranging for Yue'er to pick it up, Liu Qianxue chatted with Su Wan: "This winter is not too cold, and the lake hasn't frozen yet."
Su Wan, a southerner who is very southern, feels a little pity, she has never seen snow.But it's still early, although Baijiang City only snows two or three times a year, but by the time of the Chinese New Year, there won't be any snowflakes at all.
Yue'er brought up a jug of warmed fruit wine, and brought three cups, and one for Yiqing.But Yiqing didn't drink, after all, she was worried that drinking would cause trouble.
Su Wan took a sip of the wine, the taste was mild, the sweetness was strong, and the stamina was not strong. Although her throat felt a little on fire, her body was much warmer.She continued the topic just now, and asked, "Isn't it nice not to be cold?"
Liu Qianxue often dealt with these official ladies, and she also understood some things, she said: "As the saying goes, 'auspicious snow heralds a good year', I am afraid that the coming year will not be easy."
What's more, it's about the officialdom with her father's generation, so Su Wan remained silent and didn't answer.After a while, the sound of silk and bamboo came from the other side of the lake, and then a giant three-storey painting boat appeared, and people's heads could be vaguely seen moving on it.
Everyone here noticed it, but the strange thing was that they either lowered their heads or looked away, and no one looked over there in a tacit understanding.She didn't even go up to join in the fun, Su Wan felt very confused, tugged at the corner of Liu Qianxue's clothes, and asked, "What are you doing over there?"
"Don't look." Liu Qianxue put her arms around Su Wan's shoulders and asked her to sit down, "Over there is the annual parade in the Moon Tower." This position is just at an angle, and you can see the boats on the boat over there. A high platform, Liu Qianxue pointed over there carefully, letting Su Wan look over there.
"The flower in the mirror." Liu Qianxue said.
"What?" Su Wan only saw a girl dancing on the high platform opposite, but she didn't understand what Liu Qianxue was referring to.
"The flower in the mirror is that Yueyue Tower... oiran's specialty song." Liu Qianxue explained, took a sip from the wine cup on the side, "Actually, I really want to see it, but it's a pity that it's so close , and dare not look up."
Su Wan let out a long "oh", rubbed her chin with one hand, and suddenly said, "I see."
Liu Qianxue was still talking in a low voice, but Su Wan's thoughts had long since ceased to be here. She propped her chin with one hand and looked up generously.Thanks to Yao's good eyesight, he was able to see the people on the stage clearly.
"Qingluo small fan of white orchids, slender waist and jade belt dancing sky gauze..." Su Wan's hand on her lap patted lightly with the music, muttering indistinctly.
Today is really the right place, the one above is really not one that can be summed up in one word, no wonder King Yin Zhou wants to dote on Daji, and King Zhou You wants to play with the princes, she can be regarded as experiencing the happiness of a faint king.
Su Wan spoke in a low voice, but Liu Qianxue, who was close to her, could hear her clearly. She was used to Su Wan's informality, so she didn't try to persuade her not to watch it, but continued with what Su Wan said: "Doubtful." It's a fairy who came down to earth, and she wins over Xinghua with a smile...is she really this pretty?"
"Much prettier than a fairy... hey!" Su Wan felt the stool she was sitting on suddenly tilted, and before she could react, she kissed the floor on the cheek.
Quickly got up and patted the dust off her body, Su Wan gave Yiqing a vicious look behind her.She didn't know who made the mistake, but she knew that her status was not as good as Yiqing's, so she didn't dare to fight back.
"What's going on?" Liu Qianxue asked with concern, helped Su Wan up the chair, and after she sat down, wiped the dust off her face.
Su Wan snorted coldly, resigned, and said, "It's okay, I was too busy looking at people, and I just lost my balance accidentally." Sitting down again, Su Wan glanced around, and the others were still chatting in twos and threes, so she asked, "What's wrong?" Haven't started yet?"
"It should be soon." Not long after Liu Qianxue answered, the people below suddenly rushed up.On the second floor, there is a long table in the middle, except for some stools that are placed separately against the railings on both sides.Everyone found a place to sit down, and the commander from last time sat alone at the front.
Su Wan especially didn't like this kind of long table, because her status was different.Moreover, looking at the local official's daughter, who is younger than her, she is already so arrogant.She felt disdainful and wanted to sit in the last seat, but this made her more conspicuous, so she could only sit next to others on both sides.
Liu Qianxue didn't want to sit with her no matter what she said, and after a few words from Su Wan, she was willing to sit not far or near diagonally opposite Su Wan.
This time it is not a drinking order, but a proposition is given directly, asking everyone to write a poem within the specified time.The officer who announced the first proposition turned out to be Can Xue.
Baijiang didn't even have any snowflakes, so Su Wan didn't believe that she wasn't targeting someone.She cautiously glanced at Qianxue not far away from the corner of her eye, saw her frown slightly, and shook her head.
Withdrawing her gaze, Su Wan looked at the commander and raised her right hand: "Wait, I have something to say."
Rather than being teased by them for not being able to write a poem for a while, it would be better once and for all, Su Wan stood up suddenly, and said loudly to everyone present: "Thanks to the love from all the ladies, Su Wan deserves it. To be honest, Su Wan It's not a talented woman, these are just rumors from outsiders, today's poem, I can't write it."
In the past six months, Su Wan was also prepared for being troubled by the poetry club's urging posts again and again.She found her peers who were older than herself, and finally asked clearly about the origin of Su Wan's title of Talented Woman, which turned out to be hundreds of years ago.
She calculated that these people were only in their teens, and even if they wanted to investigate, they would not be able to find out the origin of this title.Still, she's not quite sure those people will believe what she says.
Sure enough, someone soon questioned: "Ms. Su didn't like our Plum Blossom Poetry Club, so she rejected us again and again?"
As soon as this remark came out, many people below began to echo it.Tsk, these people really don't like to hear the truth.In the beginning, Su Wan wanted to fight hard for her senior, but now she just wants to be herself. Seeing that these people don't believe her, she also lowered her face: "Whatever you think, I'm telling the truth."
She originally wanted to say, let these people test herself, and with her knowledge reserve, she would definitely be able to find out the details within three questions.But, can only scumbags fail?It's easy to score zero in the Xueba test.
So, she said: "Believe it or not, the family is still waiting for me to eat, so I will leave first."
Regardless of what these people thought, they left after speaking.Anyway, she didn't have to bother to please these people, because she was worried about hurting Liu Qianxue, she didn't look back at her when she left, thinking that someone would send her a letter when she went back.
"What a temper!" There was a young lady pointing at her back, Su Wan felt very bored, whispered a few words to Yiqing, and asked her Yujian to take her away, and she had to beg these people to let the boat dock. His prestige is lost.
Stepping on the flying sword, Yiqing said, "Hold tight."
"Okay." Su Wan grabbed the clothes on Yiqing's side waist, and the two of them soared into the sky like a helicopter, and flew out as soon as they stepped on the accelerator, leaving no trace of exhaust gas on the people on the boat .
"No wonder you are so domineering, so you will go to heaven." An uninformed neutral commented.
On the shore, the two called a carriage to go home.As soon as she got home, Su Wan swiftly removed the hairpin from her head and sighed, "Finally solved a problem."
Even though she let go of her serious worry, Su Wan couldn't stay at home, and after thinking about it, she was worried about Liu Qianxue.She vaguely remembered the time when the last poetry meeting was held, and waited for her by the lake.
I waited for a few rounds in the tea shed on the shore, only to see the giant cruise ship docking on the other side of the lake, but did not see the painting boats belonging to the Poetry Club.Before she knew it, it was getting dark, and Su Wan waited until the servants of Liu Qianxue's house came to realize that the poetry society ended early because of her matter, but fortunately, Liu Qianxue didn't mean to blame her.
It's dark and I can't find the carriage. Fortunately, there are masters by my side, so it doesn't matter if I walk back.
Many people went to bed early, and after passing the market, the lights became less and less. Seeing the road getting darker and darker, Su Wan hurriedly moved to Yiqing's side, and Yiqing also became vigilant.
On weekdays, Su Wan would go out by car or sedan chair, but only now did she realize that Baijiang is quite big, with a world of flowers and a broken kiln.Only by walking down-to-earth every step can we realize the various aspects of life.And she herself has been hiding in the room, and what she wrote is just a corner view.
The clerks of one or two small shops were installing the door panels, and when they saw Su Wan and Yiqing passing by, they shook their heads and sighed, as if they were blaming these ignorant girls who came back from the night in their hearts.Su Wan pouted, pretending not to see the eyes of these people.
There were a few barks of dogs in the alley, and the hooting of an owl could be faintly heard.
There was a corner at the end of the road, it was so dark that no light could be seen, Su Wan was hiding behind Yiqing and poking her head, when suddenly a shout came from the alley:
"Help--"
Both of them had sensitive ears, and they both heard the cry for help clearly.However, there was only one sound, and no movement could be heard from behind.
"Master, let's go and have a look." Although Su Wan hoped that it was her hallucinations, but human life is at stake, and there should be no fluke mentality.What's more, there are experts around, so Su Wan is not worried that she won't be able to deal with it.
Yiqing nodded, worried about letting Su Wan stay here alone, grabbed her wrist and dodged to the entrance of the alley where the sound came out, the two trotted in quickly.Before they had gone far, they saw a person lying on the ground inside, and another tall man was bending down to approach the fallen person, not knowing what he was doing.
Without saying a word, Yiqing went up and punched the person standing there, who knew that the person had been on guard for a long time, and opened her hand to restrain Yiqing's fist, Yiqing broke away from the person with her backhand, and pulled out a long knife from her waist. Sword, another person also took out a big knife.In an instant, swords, swords and swords were crackling in the alley, like sparks from fireworks sticks bought at home during the Chinese New Year.
Taking advantage of the intense fight between the two, Su Wan cautiously approached the fainted man. The moonlight was reflected on his face, and Su Wan immediately recognized that it was the Yueyue Lou who was dancing on the high platform during the day. Girl!However, what is even more concerning is that the very obvious Adam's apple in the middle of his neck is actually a man!
Tsk tsk, it's a pity, the world's medical technology is not very developed, otherwise...
There were many more people coming to the party this time than last time, so there were three boats, each with two floors.The first floor is used to eat and shelter from the rain, and the second floor is used to enjoy the scenery.Su Wan's ship was the one with the most people, and those who came were basically the few people he had seen in Xuanyaju last time.
