Chapter 19 The 17th reunion at the Opera House

When Runzhi came out, he asked Min Zhi gently: "It's strange, this man named Liu seems to be paying attention to Xiao Lian, can you see that?" Min Zhi said, "I don't know why I didn't see him. , Xiao Lian is always evasive? Didn’t you listen to the surname Liu, was he included that day when Xia’s family got married? I think, since that day, he has fallen in love with Xiao Lian. Xiao Lian is also invited, and this may be intentional." Runzhi said: "You are absolutely right. When Mi Sibi introduced the two of them, Xiao Lian seemed surprised. Now that I think about it, I feel more and more It's suspicious. Fifth sister, I'll call Meili here too, let that Liu man make trouble, and see how he is?" Min Zhi said, "What jokes are there to make? It's better to let that Liu man do it for a few more days. It's just a dream." The two of them were talking here, and it happened that Meili came by herself, and there was only Xiao Lian sitting on the chair.

Now, Liu Chunjiang had a chance to speak up.But which one should I say first?But can't find a clue.The little pity coughed twice, lowered her head and looked at the ground without making a sound.Sitting there, Liu Chunjiang also coughed lightly twice, and everyone became silent.Liu Chunjiang thought, don't be stupid, this good opportunity has been missed, where can I find it?At that time, he said: "I have received the letter that Ms. Jin gave me. But..." At this point, he paused, and then continued: "My admiration for Ms. Jin is all out of sincerity. Why is Ms. How deep is the rejection?" When Xiao Lian was asked by him, her face almost turned red, and she couldn't answer why.Liu Chunjiang said: "What I don't understand is why you can't communicate with the Jin family?" Xiao Lian softly said three words: "It's inconvenient." Liu Chunjiang said: "Is there a place to hand it over? "Xiao Lian shook her head.Liu Chunjiang said: "Then, after a while today, I don't know when we will meet again?" Xiao Lian looked back, as if she had something to say to Liu Chunjiang, but in the end she just smiled .Liu Chunjiang said: "I think maybe Ms. Jin will come to the school, I can send it to the school." Xiao Lian smiled and said: "In the second half of the year, I will not be in school." Liu Chunjiang couldn't find it for a long time When I came to a topic of conversation, I had something to say now, so I said: "We are all young, it is time to study, why don't we go to school?" Xiao Lian couldn't give a reason for a while, so he laughed: "Because Planning to go back to the south." Liu Chunjiang said: "Oh! Go back to the south, but..." At this point, he didn't know what to say, so he smiled again.So everyone looked at each other and fell silent again.Liu Chunjiang's fighting spirit finally overcame his shyness, his face sank, and he said: "I really hope to have a literary acquaintance with Ms. Jin, so I can't do it?" You don't have to be polite, what I said has already been said in the letter back to Mr. Liu." Liu Chunjiang said: "In this case, why did the lady give me a flower ball?" Xiao Lian said: "I didn't send Mr. Liu Flower ball." Liu Chunjiang said: "It's a tuberose flower ball, sent by Miss Bi, why not?" Xiao Lian said: "That's really a misunderstanding. My flower ball was sent to Miss Bi, but she forwarded it Mr. Liu." Liu Chunjiang said: "Anyway, I think this is a misunderstanding, and it is also a coincidence. I really hope that Mi Sijin admits that I am a very loyal friend." Seeing that he is obsessed, Xiao Lian always sits here , I'm really sorry, if you leave him immediately, it will be too embarrassing.At the moment of embarrassment, two male guests happened to come and sat not far away, which interrupted Liu Chunjiang's love talk.

After a while, the host invites more than 20 guests to the table. Of course, the fragrance is overwhelming, and the shoes and shoes are intertwined.Yu Jianer, who was present, deliberately made trouble and moved the seats of the four Jin sisters to the right.For a few unaccompanied male guests, the seats were moved to the left.On the front lines of the men and women, one is Liu Chunjiang and the other is Xiao Lian, who happen to be sitting side by side.In this way, Xiao Lian also understood in his heart that even the protagonist was colluded by Liu Chunjiang.From this point of view, everyone is very polite on the surface.Within five steps, everyone has a ghost in their hearts.It's the most embarrassing for a girl's family to let others know about her secrets.From time to time, I use my eyes to peek at the face of the protagonist.Sometimes the four eyes meet, and there seems to be a little smile on the protagonist's face.Needless to say, my own concerns have been fully understood by others.Therefore, for this meal, I didn't even notice whether I was full or not. Coffee was served in a blink of an eye, and only then did I know that the meal was over.After the meal, everyone walked casually. Liu Chunjiang also seemed to be afraid of people's attention, but deliberately left the Jin sisters to deal with others.It was Runzhi who was mischievous, but she brought Xiao Lian to sit together.Smiling, he said to Liu Chunjiang: "Is there any letter from sister Ling at this time? If Mr. Liu replies, please say hello to my sister." Liu Chunjiang said: "Yes, I must write a letter to tell my sister that it has been done. I have become friends with Miskin. I think she must be very happy to hear the news." Runzhi said with a smile: "Yes, we are very willing to have a few more friends who study knowledge. If Mr. Liu has time, go to the house to talk Talk, we are very welcome." Liu Chunjiang said: "I must go to learn. I think there will always be one or two of the four ladies at home, so we can meet." Xiao Lian just smiled lightly With a smile, she meant it, as if she was extremely dissatisfied.But Runzhi laughed and said: "My sister-in-law, she doesn't go out very often, so we can always meet." Liu Chunjiang said: "Very good, I will definitely visit in two days." When they talked, Minzhi also quietly Here she is, hearing Runzhi's accent, she really wanted to tease that Liu.If you want to make a fuss, there may be some jokes.Then he said, "Let's go back." Then he nodded to Liu Chunjiang and said, "Goodbye." Just like that, he led Runzhi and Xiao Lian away.But Liu Chunjiang himself is very satisfied with today's meeting.On the second day, I barely endured it for a day, and on the third day, I couldn't bear it anymore, so I went to Jin's house to pay a visit to Miss Jin.Minzhi and Runzhi originally had quite a social relationship, and it was not enough to pay attention to male guests coming to visit.As soon as Liu Chunjiang arrived at the concierge, he handed over his business card, saying that he wanted to pay a visit to Miss Jin.The concierge asked, "Which lady?" Liu Chunjiang hesitated for a while. It would be inappropriate to visit Miss Xiaolian exclusively.For the first time, let's visit their Fifth Miss.So he said: "Visit Fifth Miss. If Fifth Miss is not at home..." The concierge said, "Maybe he is at home, let me take a look with you." The concierge first let Liu Chunjiang sit in the living room outside, and then went in to answer.Because Minzhi was the one who invited him to come, he was slapped for the first inconvenience, so he had to come out to meet him.Naturally, there was nothing to talk about, Liu Chunjiang said some gossip, and then left.Since that day, Liu Chunjiang came several times, but never met Xiao Lian, he thought to himself, maybe Xiao Lian avoided him, so that's all.

About a week later, on the seventh day of July, various theaters in Beijing sang his "Tianhe Pei".Liu Chunjiang and a few members of his family booked a special room at Mingming Stage to watch the play.It was also a coincidence that the Jin family also booked a special room to watch the show.The Jin family is the No. 2 special room, and the Liu family is the No. 3 special room, close to each other.Today the Jin family is hosted by Wu Peifang, the eldest mistress, and two or three young mistresses are invited.Peifang brought Xiao Lian, Yufen brought the little girl Qiuxiang, but Huichang advocated class equality and abolished the slavery system, so she didn't bring a maid, only a cleaner young maidservant followed.Three young mistresses sat in front, and two maids and a maid sat far behind.Xiao Lian was so absorbed in watching the play that she never noticed that there were acquaintances in the next room.The waitress brought the teapot to the box, and Xiao Lian poured the tea.Yufen wanted to smoke a cigarette, and Xiao Lian walked over to wipe the lamp for her.Peifang took a pear from the plate, handed it to Xiao Lian and said: "Xiao Lian, peel this pear and give it to the third young lady." Xiao Lian heard that she asked for a knife from the tea servant, and turned her face Go peel the pears.It's okay if you don't turn your face sideways, but if you turn your face away, it's like announcing the death penalty in court, and your soul will fly away.It turned out that the closest person in the next room was Liu Chunjiang.As soon as Liu Chunjiang entered the private room, he had already seen Xiao Lian, but she didn't wear any new clothes today, it was just a white flowered foreign cloth gown, compared with the previous few young women in colorful clothes, there was a world away.At this time, I felt very strange, thinking, did I recognize the wrong person?But just past the door of the second room, it is clearly written that Jin Zhai Ding, this is not Miss Xiaolian's house, how can it be such a coincidence?When Liu Chunjiang was wondering, he saw a young woman in the box next door turned her face and said in surprise, "Hey! Xiao Lian, what's the matter with you?" Xiao Lian blushed and said, "Second young lady, what's the matter?" " Huichang said: "Look at your clothes." Xiao Lian looked down, oh, there are many red spots on the lapel.He also said: "Hey! Where did this come from?" Just as he was talking, he dripped a little more, immediately put down the pear, and pulled the skirt of his clothes, only then did he see clearly that the little finger was cut by a knife, and it was bleeding.The waitress was still clever, seeing this situation, she ran out early to get a pack of tooth powder, and pressed it on for Xiao Lian.The handkerchief Xiao Lian was holding was dotted scarlet and full of peach blossoms.Peifang said: "You child, you are too playful. If you have a play to watch, you don't even know if you cut off your fingers." Huichang laughed and said, "Don't wrong the good people. They cut pears and didn't face the stage." Fang said: "Then why don't you know that you cut the hole yourself?" Xiao Lian pointed to the forehead with one hand and said, "My head is dizzy." Pei Fang said: ""Tianhe Pei" is about to start, you are not lucky Let’s go back.” Huichang said: “I was very happy to watch "Tianhe Pei" two days ago, and now, the good show is just around the corner, how can I tell you to go back? This is really cooked. The dead duck flew away." When he said that, he took out a dollar from his money pocket and said to Xiao Lian, "Take Qiuxiang to the cafeteria to have a cup of hot coffee, and let the air in. Come back later." Qiuxiang Still only fourteen years old, loves to play even more.At this time, asking her to go to the cafeteria to drink coffee, it is considered that the second young lady loves her for nothing.She twisted her body, pouted her mouth and said, "I don't have a headache, so I won't go." Yufen laughed and said, "A dog bites Lu Dongbin, and he doesn't know what's good or bad. Xiao Lian, you go alone. You call someone from the cafeteria." Dude, I'll give you a hot towel, sprinkle more toilet water, and the fragrance will refresh you." Xiao Lian couldn't wait to go away, took a dollar, and walked out of the box without looking sideways.

Sitting next door, Liu Chunjiang could already see clearly and hear clearly, this is really strange, a famous lady in the seat has become a maid in front of others.If it was intentional, those young women who called themselves Young Mistresses must be Min Zhi's sister-in-law.She doesn't know me well, why is she playing around in front of me?And looking at Ms. Xiaolian, panicked, it seems that the secret has been revealed. Could it be that she is really a maid?But why did she participate in social activities with Min Zhi and the others before?I was only thinking about this matter in my heart, and I didn't even notice what was going on on stage.He tried his best to endure it for five minutes, and couldn't bear it anymore, so he also walked out of the box and went to the cafeteria.Xiao Lian was sitting at a table, drinking coffee with her head down, without looking aside, she suddenly raised her head and saw Liu Chunjiang barging in, her face blushed again.She stood for a while, then sat down again, she was stunned when she saw Liu Chunjiang.Although a word came out of his mouth, Wu Ru's voice was so small that he couldn't hear it at all.Liu Chunjiang stepped forward and said, "Please sit down, please sit down." He sat down at the same table as Xiao Lian.Xiao Lian said: "Mr. Liu, you already know about me, so I don't need to talk about it. It's all your fault, I didn't do it on purpose." Liu Chunjiang still ordered a cup of coffee, took a sip first, and said: "Of course it was my mistake. But that time at Xia's house, you went with Miss Ba, and you were also a congratulatory guest. What does this mean?" Xiao Lian said: "Then for the sake of Miss, I want someone to accompany you. My young mistress went." When Xiao Lian said this, she was afraid that Peifang and the others would also come, so she got up and was about to leave.Seeing her embarrassed look, Liu Chunjiang understood very well.Xiao Lian paid the bill and walked out of the cafeteria.This is behind the scattered seats upstairs, a large corridor.Downstairs is also here.Xiao Lian stood still, hesitated for a while, and then went into the box, a little embarrassed, went downstairs, and was afraid that the young lady would be blamed.While hesitating, Liu Chunjiang suddenly caught up and asked, "Why don't you go to the theater?" Just now in the cafeteria, Xiao Lian was leaning against the waiter and ignoring Liu Chunjiang, which might arouse more suspicion.When you get here, people come and go without anyone noticing.She was embarrassed to talk to Liu Chunjiang, so she lowered her head and walked downstairs.Liu Chunjiang saw that her expression was still undecided, her eyelids were drooping, as if she was about to cry with two bags of tears in her eyes, the boss couldn't bear it, so he followed her downstairs.Walking out of the theater gate, Liu Chunjiang said again: "Where are you going? Why are you like this? Did I offend you?" Xiao Lian said: "What did you offend me? I want to go back." Liu Chunjiang said: "You Why do you want to go back?" Xiao Lian said softly: "I'm sorry to see you." Liu Chunjiang said: "You are wrong, you are wrong. I had a lot to say to you just now, but unexpectedly you left first." Then, he pointed to the road and said: "There is a small restaurant over there, let's talk there, do you like it?" Xiao Lian said: "What can we talk about?" Liu Chunjiang Said: "You just go with me, I have something to say." So he helped Xiao Lian and crossed the road from the empty car, and Xiao Lian came to this small fan restaurant in a daze.Finding a private seat, Liu Chunjiang and Xiao Lian sat opposite each other.At this time, Liu Chunjiang could talk freely, so he said: "I understand your mind very well. Do you think that I will despise you because I already know the truth about you? But it is the opposite. You have to know, I hate that I have no way to get close to you just because you are from the Jin family. Besides, you have always been indifferent to me, and I am about to declare my disappointment soon. Now that you have revealed the truth, I am very disappointed. It is clear that you are afraid that I will break up with you That's it. In this way, you have already shown that you have a sincere intention for me. You think, why am I not overjoyed? I have absolutely no class concept, and I don't ask anything else. I only know that you are my one and only A good friend." Xiao Lian thought that the truth had been revealed, and Liu Chunjiang must have disdain to associate with him, but after hearing his words now, every sentence really penetrated into her heart.It is a great honor for people in the lower class to have friends from the upper class.Moreover, being a person of the opposite sex, Liu Chunjiang is also a handsome young man in a troubled world, so how can a young woman who is striving to be high-class remain unmoved by expressing her affection for her?She laughed and said: "Young Master Liu, although you are very sincere in your words, do you still worry that you don't have many ladies to make friends with you? Why do you have to deal with me as a maid?" Liu Chunjiang said: " Everything in the world is like this, so it’s no wonder you doubt me. But after a long time in the future, you must believe me. I want to ask you, if you went to the Xia family’s happy event that day, why did you still treat me? Where are you going? This seems to be trying to make fun of me." Xiao Lian was using a spoon to scoop up the abalone soup on the plate, with her head lowered, scooping one spoonful at a time and drinking it.Liu Chunjiang took the spoon in his hand, stretched it across the table, pressed Xiao Lian's plate, and said with a smile: "Tell me, what's the reason for this?" Xiao Lian smiled and said, "What's the matter?" I don’t know, it’s just a coincidence. When I went to Xia’s house, it was our wife and young mistress playing around, and if I didn’t want to play it, I just played right and wrong.” Liu Chunjiang retracted his hand, and was scooping up soup, chewing , Listen to her explain why.As soon as he said that the right and wrong came out, he was startled, and asked: "What's wrong? What happened?" With a spoon of soup in his hand, it hung in the air, looking at Xiao Lian, waiting for a reply.Xiao Lian smiled and said, "What's the matter? I just bumped into you. But I think, why did you have to invite me to Miss Bi's treat? Maybe it's..." As she spoke, she glanced at Liu Chunjiang .Liu Chunjiang didn't hide anything, and explained in detail what he planned to ask Bi Yunbo to treat him.Xiao Lian said: "You are too reckless in doing things. How can such a thing be known to many people?" Liu Chunjiang said: "If no one knows, how can I meet you?" Liu Chunjiang's method was wrong, but seeing him being so fascinated by him made me very happy.He raised his head and thought for a while, then smiled again.Liu Chunjiang said: "Do you think you have anything to say?" Xiao Lian said: "There is nothing to say. Our young mistress thought I was still in the cafeteria, so I'm going." After speaking, she stood up.Liu Chunjiang also stood up and asked: "Where shall we meet in the future?" Xiao Lian shook his head and smiled, "There is no place." Liu Chunjiang said: "Are you absolutely not allowed to come out?"

Here Xiao Lian went back to the box, Wu Peifang said: "Why have you been here for so long? I thought you were going home." Xiao Lian said: "I didn't go home, there is a night market on the road, and I walked around the night market I turned a corner. Have I been there for a long time?" Peifang said: "No!" But the scene on the stage, when the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl were crossing the bridge, Peifang was watching it interestingly, so she didn't care whether Xiao Lian's words were true.It's already one o'clock when I return home. The weather was not very cool yet, so Xiao Lian brought a wicker couch and put it under the corridor, and lay on the wicker chair, looking at the Milky Way in the sky, enjoying the coolness quietly.As soon as people's hearts are quiet, the slight evening breeze brings the fragrance of flowers in the yard, blowing towards them, making people want to be intoxicated, and they just fell asleep like this.Suddenly someone shouted: "Wake up, the sun is almost on your belly." When she opened her eyes, she saw Yanxi standing in front of her, kicking the rattan chair with her feet.Xiao Lian blushed, turned over and sat up, rubbed her eyes and said with a smile: "Where did you come here so early in the morning? It scared me a lot." Yanxi said: "Is it still early? It's already past eight o'clock." Xiao Lian Lian said: "I was so confused for a while, unexpectedly it's this time." Standing up and looking around, Yanxi pulled her clothes and said: "Don't worry, I have something to ask you." Xiao Lian Said: "What's the matter? Tell me!" Yanxi thought for a while, then smiled and said, "What show did you watch last night? Are you okay?" Xiao Lian threw her hand and said, "You are not talking nonsense!" After finishing speaking , she turned and went into the house.Pei Fang asked from across the room: "Who is Xiao Lian arguing with when we got together early in the morning?" I just got up at this time, I'll wake her up." Xiao Lian said: "Don't believe what Qiye said, I got up early in the morning to enjoy the shade, how could I sleep outside?" Yanxi followed her in as she spoke, and asked "Did the boss just leave?" Peifang said, "I didn't come back last night, and I don't know where I went to make trouble?" When she said that, she was wearing a long gown and slippers on her bare feet, and opened half of the door curtain. Son, standing by the door.Seeing that Yanxi was wearing a silk suit, she smiled and said, "What do you do with your hands and feet bound in a suit on a hot day?" Yanxi said, "A friend invited me to visit Xishan. I think, It is more convenient to walk up the mountain in a suit." Peifang said: "I said, how can you get up so early? So you still go to play. You go to Xishan, this time don't forget to bring some fresh vegetables to eat." Yanxi said: "Sister-in-law has said this several times. If you like to eat, you can ask the cook to add it. Why do you still bring it in the countryside?" Peifang said: "What do you know? The cook buys vegetables at the vegetable market. It is picked by the countrymen, and when it is ready, it is sent to the city. After it is sent to the city, it is distributed from the vegetable store to the vegetable market. Soaked in water. After several days of soaking, the delicious taste of the vegetables was completely submerged." Yanxi said: "Sister-in-law pays so much attention to such a small matter." Peifang laughed and said: "I pay attention to many things, Don't just play big swords in front of my door. Otherwise, I'll understand as soon as you do it first." Saying this made Yanxi feel a little embarrassed.Said: "I didn't bother you early in the morning. Didn't you say that you also want to join the Family Art Research Society? Now it's only ten days away, and everyone's productions should be delivered earlier. They urged me in the meeting. I've called it several times. I made an appointment to come back at noon today. If I don't come to you at this time, I won't be able to touch you if you go out later." Peifang said: "What a big deal! Busy?" Yanxi said: "There is really no time left. It's another day for the thugs, another day for the thugs, and it's due in a blink of an eye. You guys are doing things in the usual way, so I can't stop urging you." Peifang said: "I What's the matter? Tell me!" Yanxi said: "Just talk about the Art Fair, I told you first, and you are very happy, and everyone is willing to do it. It's been almost a month now, and I haven't seen you yet." Where are your works? As soon as you talk about it, you say it’s still early, what are you busy with? Eryan has forgotten even this matter, and you still say you don’t follow the rules?” Peifang said: “Isn’t there still Twenty days? Don't be too busy, I will hand over your things within two weeks, what do you think?" Yanxi said: "That's fine. I'll reply to people's letters like this at night, don't make me stumble. !" Yanxi said, then left, walked to the Moon Gate, turned her head and smiled and said, "Let's see in two weeks." Shocked by him, Peifang washed her face, changed her clothes, and asked Xiao Lian asked: "Where's the piece of embroidered flowers on my stretcher?" Xiao Lian said: "I'm afraid it will get dirty, so I covered it with a towel and moved it upstairs. It was the last time when I locked the door of the leather clothes. It’s been about three weeks. It’s so early in the morning, what’s the point of asking that?” Peifang said: “Don’t ask, just take it down and you’ll have it.” Xiao Lian said: “Take it after dinner.” Peifang said Said: "You're going to be lazy again, I'll be waiting to do it now, you go and get it." Xiao Lian smiled and said: "If you don't think about it, you won't do it for a month. If you think about it, you will do it right away. You see I can't do it for two hours, and I hate it again." Peifang said: "You are getting bolder and bolder, and you are talking about me?"

Xiao Lian didn't dare to argue, so she went upstairs and took down the embroidery frame.Peifang hurriedly washed her hands first, then put the silk thread and flower needles on the small coffee table, and placed them with the embroidery frame facing the window, she didn't drink her own tea, and went to embroider in a hurry.In one go, I embroidered for two hours.Fengju came back from the outside, and said with a smile, "Why are you so happy today, and you're doing this again?" Peifang looked up, and continued to embroider her flowers.Jin Fengju took off his long clothes and called Xiao Lian at the same time.Called twice, but didn't get an answer, so she said: "Xiao Lian is always playful now, what is it called, and she can't see people." Peifang asked: "What else do you need, do you want someone to serve you?" She said, "Ask her to hang the clothes for me." Peifang lowered her head to embroider, and said, "The clothes rack is in the room, you can hang it up by yourself, and you have to call someone. Some people call you." Time, can’t you do it yourself? Xiao Lian is not seven or eight years old, you should also avoid it, and don’t call her for some things that you don’t need to ask her to do.” Feng Ju was about to hang up his long coat when Jiang outside the porch Mom, I heard that the uncle wanted to hang up long clothes, so I came in to pick up the clothes.Feng Ju quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no." He hung up the clothes by himself, which made Jiang Ma a little embarrassed.Peifang said quickly, "Mother Jiang, go and pour me a bowl of tea." After Mama Jiang left, Peifang glanced at Fengju and smiled.Fengju stretched his waist, raised his hands, sat down on the rattan couch, and said with a smile, "What's the matter?" Peifang held a flower needle, and counted the time for Fengju, and said with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness!" Fengju said: "What's the matter?" Peifang lowered her head to embroider, and snorted.Feng Ju smiled and said, "Look at this, what's the matter?" At this time, Jiang Ma brought the tea, and Pei Fang drank the tea in silence.When Jiang's mother left, Pei Fang smiled and said: "I ask you, you asked Xiao Lian to hang up the clothes first, why did Jiang's mother come to hang up, but you didn't want her to hang up? They all have the same hands, why some people hang them up and others hang them up?" No?" Feng Ju said: "This makes you picky again. Didn't you say that if you have the time to call people, you can do it yourself. Now I hang up by myself. If you don't call people, you think it's not good. That's not right. Is it hard to say?" Pei Fang said: "Okay, you are right, I won't say anything."

After a while, two cooks came into the yard with suitcases.Under the eaves of the corridor, it stopped.Then Mama Jiang will bring it in.Mother Jiang asked Peifang, "When the meal is here, will the eldest and young mistress eat?" Peifang nodded.Jiang Ma put two pairs of cups and chopsticks on the round table, first opened a carrying case, and put the dishes on the table, there was a dish of shredded chicken mixed with king melon, a dish of fried winter bamboo shoots with sliced ​​cabbage, and a dish of fried pea sprouts with dried shrimps. A big bowl of stewed ham.Feng Ju stood up first, looked at it, and said with a smile: "This is like a monk, and it's all such light dishes. In any case, don't let him cook for three months in Beijing, cook three. This month, a ghost is about to appear. This is like a monk! Wanggua is so cheap these days, and they still get this thing out." Peifang said: "What do you know, it is hygienic to eat vegetables in summer. In such a hot day, If you want to make a big fuss and have a belly full of greasy meat, is that okay? This is what I asked the cook to do. You say king melons are cheap, winter bamboo shoots and pea sprouts are not cheap, right?" The cook heard it outside, and the next door Leaning on the curtain, she said with a smile: "Young lady is right. Let's just talk about the winter bamboo shoots. The vegetable market is covered with yellow sand, and the earthen pots are closed, and they refuse to sell it like a treasure. It's such a dish, and it can't be bought without a dollar. It's easy to handle if you want to eat some meat. It's just this vegetable dish, which needs to be tender and tasty. I really can't find it." Feng Ju laughed and said, "Once the eldest young mistress speaks for you, you will be very excited. Is there any ready-made dishes in the kitchen? Give me another bowl." The cook replied: "There is a big braised crucian carp in braised sauce, do you want it?" Feng Ju said: "That's it." The cook has gone, not too old After a while, the cook brought crucian carp.Xiao Lian also served the rice.Fengju said: "Don't do it, let's eat." Peifang started to embroider, so she continued to embroider.Feng Ju called her, but she just snorted and continued on.Fengju sat down, raised his chopsticks first, and after eating two pieces of fish, he tapped his chopsticks on the rice bowl and said, "Eat, the dishes are all cold." Peifang said, "What's the point of eating cold dishes on a hot day? I embroidered this One leaf, and I'll come. You can eat yours, there are only two stitches left." Feng Ju said: You come to embroider after eating, isn't it the same?If you don't do it, you don't do it, and once you do it, you are reluctant to let go.Let me see, what exactly are you embroidering? "When she said that, she came over. There was a bunch of flowers embroidered on the stretcher. After the embroidery was finished, a piece of thin paper was covered to cover it. On Peifang's hand, there were two flowers embroidered at the same time. The leaves below, the flowers are somewhat like Japanese cherry blossoms, and some are like Chinese roses, red and white like the face of a beauty. Fengju smiled and said: "The color of this flower is beautiful, and there are two stalks. This should be incense Ling said, Husband and wife, right? Peifang said: "Is there such a beautiful man in the world?" " Fengju said: "I mean flowers, but I don't mean people. Peifang said: "When you compare husband and wife, don't you mean people?" Fengju said, "According to you, what should this compare to?" Peifang laughed and said, "This famous one is called Er Qiao Zhengyan."As the saying goes, they are sister flowers.Don't you see that one is higher, one is lower, one is bigger, and one is smaller? Fengju said: "These two flowers are called sister flowers, I understand."well!Two flowers can share one branch, two people, but just..." As she said that, she peeked at Peifang, saw her stern face, and asked, "What's its original name?This kind of flower is very special, I have never seen it before. Peifang said: "You don't know this flower?"This is called a love flower. "Feng Ju said with a smile: "It turns out that this is an imported product, I didn't expect it."This is very interesting, the name of the flower is love, and the shape it blooms is also a sister.Then, this root is the root of love, and the leaf is the love leaf.Who do you want to give this frame of flowers you embroidered?I guess, it's your friend getting married again, so rushing to give this kind of thing to people, isn't it? Peifang said: "If you want to give it away, I don't know how to buy things to give away. What do you do with such effort?"No one has such a big face, asking me to embroider this kind of flower for him! Feng Ju laughed and said, "Yes, there is one." Peifang stopped needlework, turned her head to one side, and asked, "Who?" "Feng Ju nodded his nose with a finger and said with a smile: "It's just not talented. Peifang curled her lips and said, "Humph!"Just by you? Fengju said, "what's the matter?"Am I not worthy?So, what are you rushing to embroider this thing for? Peifang said, "Why should I tell you?" "Feng Ju said: "It's fine if you don't tell me, and I don't need to ask.But you want me to wait for you to eat in order to catch up with embroidery, which is infringing on my freedom, and I can't obey you. "Peifang stopped the needle with a smile, raised her hand, and inserted the needle into her head. Suddenly she thought that she had already cut her hair, so the needle couldn't be inserted, so she stuck it on the side of the bandage. Feng Ju laughed and said: " I thought of a reason for hair care for the woman who took care of her hair.It's just a haircut. Firstly, it's not easy to wear flowers, and secondly, it's not easy to insert needles. " Just as I was talking about this, I heard someone outside the curtain say: "Is that the reason?It is too small. "As he said, he lifted the curtain and walked into the room.
