A peach edge

Chapter 3 Surprise

Xun Bo searched for Ling Chu, he said something, and left money for Ling Chu, Ling Chu squinted and smiled very courteously: "That's his blessing..."

"At night, someone will pick him up in a sedan chair, don't say it's me, just let him come here with peace of mind." Xun Bojin instructed.

As soon as Xun Bojin left, Lingchu muttered strangely: "It's really strange, this kid Yuanluo has never seen him catch any big fish, and today he has a swollen face that scares people to death, and noble people can see it." Can't help but be amazed.

Yuanluo patted her chest, finally sent Xun Bojin this big Buddha away, and went out carefully again.

The shopkeeper of Xiangfen Pavilion is a regular customer of Yuanluo. Yuanluo put the heavy copper plate on the counter, but her eyes flicked to the various rouge and gouache: "Treasurer Wu, quickly change it into a full silver bill for me."

Old Wu wore a hat, looked left and right to see no one was there, and quietly squeezed Yuanluo's delicate little hand with his thick, vine-like hands: "Poor little girl, why is your face so swollen?"

Yuanluo looked at the back room of the shop with curtains, and quietly withdrew her hand, pretending to touch her face, thinking, who knows if your mother, the king, is in the shop, I'm not in the mood to argue with her again.But he said: "Oh, shopkeeper Wu really loves Yuanluo, why don't you come to me these few days?"

Old Wu leaned close to Yuanluo, and whispered with a smile: "I'm looking for you, of course, and I'll go when your face is healed." He took Yuanluo's copper coins, bowed his head and began to count carefully.

Yuanluo seemingly unintentionally opened several boxes of newly arrived rouge in front of her, the colors were all good, and the boxes were exquisite and beautiful.

Old Wu counted back and forth three times before giving the whole silver to Yuanluo.

Yuanluo put it in her arms, and looked down at Rouge again.

"Which one do you like? This is the latest rouge yesterday, and this color suits you best." Old Wu said, took out a porcelain box, and opened it for Yuanluo to see.

Yuanluo looked at the one in Old Wu's hand, and then at the one she had chosen: "What price?"

"You are different from others. I sell this box for 150 Wen, but you are fine with 120 Wen."

Yuanluo thought in her heart, you iron cock, you should have sold it for 120 Wen in the first place. "Then what about this one in my hand?"

"If it's yours, I'll sell you 170 Wen."

Yuanluo picked up the two boxes and compared them for a long time, and she still prefers the one she picked, but it would cost fifty cents more.Yuanluo picked up the one that Old Wu said again, the color was worse: "One hundred Wen, the most."

"Yuanluo, I love you the most. This is still a big favor for you. It's only 120 Wen, which can't be lower." Old Wu stroked Yuanluo's tender hand, smiling amiably.

In the end, Yuanluo fought with each other for a while, and after being teased by Lao Wu for a long time, she finally bought it for one hundred yuan.Before leaving, he told Lao Wu to remember to look for him for a long time.

On the way back, I was still wondering if I was really going to end up messing around, but as soon as I arrived at the museum, Yuanluo was told by Lingchu that a nobleman called him by name.

Seeing that he was about to pass his best age, now he never expected that there would be a distinguished guest calling him by name, and even making a special trip to his house, looking at himself in the mirror, thinking that he was not a remnant.It was only natural that Lingchu asked him to tidy up and dress up.

Lingchu didn't say who it was, only said that it was a nobleman in the city, definitely a big tree.The so-called feng shui turns, and your good luck is about to turn.He hummed a ditty, rummaged through the clothes given by his previous benefactor, and was reluctant to wear them for comparison, but his face was still swollen.He kindly begged for two eggs from the kitchen, and kept rubbing his face in front of the bronze mirror, trying to get rid of some swelling.

He inserted a tortoiseshell pearl flower hairpin for himself, wore a necklace, carefully traced the flower mother on his forehead with cinnabar, and turned around on the ground, seeming to have regained some of his previous complexion.

Looking at the sky, I keep thinking about which young master has taken a fancy to me, I only regret that the time is too slow and it is not dark yet.

Finally, it was finally dark, and someone who looked like a gentle servant came to pick up Yuanluo.

"I don't know what the name of this little brother is?" Yuanluo smiled coquettishly, wearing a large blue satin gown, a thin white skirt with a slim waist and a long body.

"Maojin." The servant said flatly, with a neglectful and indifferent tone.At first glance he was gentle, but upon closer inspection he was a bit stern.

Yuanluo helped the hairpin on her head, she didn't say much, she raised her head and went out of the building with the young man named Maojin. To solicit business, use all kinds of seductive means, snatch patrons, provoke a lot of people, once the bad reputation comes up, it can spread in the museum, and everyone likes to say some sarcastic remarks.

"Yo, you've been beaten up like this, so don't delay doing business."

"Hey, I don't know what kind of shit luck, how can there be a real nobleman who has taken a fancy to him, even if he is really noble, he might be an old man, and he might have some strange hobbies..."

Their voices were not loud, but every word entered Yuanluo's ears. When she heard the last sentence, Yuanluo shuddered all over. That lingering nightmare was stacked with a wrinkled grin, like every day. Like visiting in a dream on time at night.

Yuanluo suppressed her nausea, and went outside with Maojin without changing her expression. There was a sedan chair with a canopy waiting for her. ?”

Maojin looked at him strangely: "Don't inquire about it, you will know it when you arrive."

Yuanluo sat in the sedan chair, lifted the curtain to see the direction she was going, she was heading north, there were many big families in the north, so she didn't know which one it was, her heart lost the joy of the day, she twisted the hem of her clothes and felt nervous instead. Suddenly he realized it, and hurriedly smoothed the slightly wrinkled corner of his clothes with distress.

The bearer walked for a long time, not to mention the turbulence of the sedan chair, which made Yuanluo dizzy with its repeated turns and turns, and finally stopped. at.

They entered through the back door, and the bearers dispersed separately.Under the dim yellow porch lights, the walls are in the style of green bricks and green tiles, only kites and Maojin are left. Maojin took him along secluded roads, except for some servant girls who met in a small lotus pond on the way. There were no lights on the road.

The winding paths of this mansion are like a maze.There was no moon in the night, and the place where the lantern could not reach was pitch black.Walking through the promenade, the footsteps buckled on the stone slabs, there was an empty echo in my ears, and there were a few cats meowing occasionally, which made the night look weird.

Yuanluo looked at the quiet night, shrunk her shoulders, and felt a little uneasy: "Brother Maojin, shall I hold the lantern for you?"

Maojin ignored him and led him into the depths of the courtyard. He didn't see anyone along the way, and the more he walked, the darker he walked, and finally he walked into a courtyard. The arches in the courtyard were exquisitely carved, but covered with moss. clothes, and untrimmed weeds underfoot.

Stopping in front of one of the ordinary rooms, Mao Jin said coldly, "Go in."

"Ah?" Yuanluo sensed something was wrong. He looked at the yard, surrounded by silence, not a single room was lit, it was eerie and strange, and asked cautiously, "Where are you going?"

Maojin pushed open the door of one of the rooms and motioned him to go in. The room was dark, as if a ghost was waiting for him with its terrifying mouth open, and the lantern in Maojin's hand could not illuminate the inside at all.

"Where is your lord? Take me to see him directly." Yuanluo became frightened and took a few steps back.

"This is the meaning of my young master. The young master has his own arrangements, so don't talk too much." Mao Jin was impatient.

"I'll wait here, you light the lamp first..." Yuanluo swallowed, some of Yuanluo's benefactors knew that Yuanluo was bold, but she was only afraid of the dark, unless someone was with her, otherwise , Yuanluo would never turn off the lights and sleep alone.Yuanluo is afraid of the dark, not born with it.This was also caused by the toothless old man on the first night. After experiencing it blindfolded, no one can forget it as if nothing happened.

"Whispering!" Maojin was so powerful, he grabbed Yuanluo's shoulder with his big palm like iron tongs, pushed into the room, and closed the door with a "slap", blocking all the light.

======================

"Hey, Miaozai Miaozai, you will lose to me this time." In the bright lobby, Xun Bo smiled complacently.

A maidservant came up to pour tea, and stood beside her with her hands down to serve.

Fang Yutang sat opposite the chessboard, looked at the sky, put down the chess pieces in his hands, didn't care much, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you in half a year, senior brother is good at chess, I'll let you win a game." He picked up the tea and cleared the foam , have tea.

Fang Yutang is Xun Bojin's younger brother. After Xun Bojin came to another world, he really met the gentleman-like character Lan Ruo in the ancient books.Xun Bo has been a human being for two lifetimes. After his parents passed away, he didn't want to wander around anymore, so he became the head of the family with peace of mind. There was one family property to guard, but their master was like a fairy, roaming around the world all day long. Fang Yutang The most sympathetic with the master is also the one who stays in the same place for a short time, at most two months, which is here in Xunbojin.

"Don't say that, as if you let me go. No, no, no, just come back this time, let me win you a game, and you will be convinced!" Xun Bojin has only a half-knowledge about chess. It was Fang Yutang who made it difficult for his six sons to win back.

Fang Yutang smiled helplessly, and was about to decline when Mao Jin came in from outside the door: "Master, that young man has been locked behind as ordered."

"Very good, very good," Xun Bo was overjoyed, clapped his hands and stood up, "A brave young man to fight with me? Let's not be in a hurry to ask for a dagger from him. Let's lock him up overnight and teach him a little lesson."

"You are such a young naughty boy, you are so tough that you are afraid that he will not hand it over?" Fang Yutang laughed. He has a calm temper and is no more playful than his senior brother.

"No rush, no hurry, I want to have fun with this little girl, take your time."
