Yun Ye put his arms around her, and there was some cold skin under the thin silk shirt. Xin Yue hummed twice and stopped talking. The two hugged each other and walked under the pomegranate tree. This is Xin Yue's favorite way of walking.
, of course when no one is around.
What she did was right. If a family wants stability and unity, a strong hostess is essential. Xin Yue regards herself as the hostess, and of course she is also the hostess by rights.
The hostess first needs to control the important servants in the family, such as shopkeeper Bai. The peony flower is just a pretext. What Xin Yue needs is shopkeeper Bai to stand on her side unconditionally. It seems that Lao Bai has a good understanding, even if he can't get it.
Peony, if you get a leaf back, Xin Yue will happily praise him for his ability to do things. It has nothing to do with the success or failure of the task, it only depends on his attitude.
There were footsteps outside the yard, one light and one heavy. Needless to say, Cheng Chumo was back. After two days and two nights of non-stop mahjong career, they didn't know how much energy they still had to waste.
Xin Yue slipped out from under Yun Ye's ribs and returned to her room in a hurry. Xiao Qiu stuck her head out to look at Yun Ye strangely. It seemed that Yun Ye had bullied Xin Yue. He gave her an evil smile.
, licked her lips, Xiaoqiu shuddered, and retracted her head.
Two pandas appeared in front of them, smelling of alcohol. They didn't even say a word. They just raised their hands as a greeting. Niu and Jiuyi came out to greet them. They supported them respectively and went to their bedrooms.
"Yezi, let's leave tomorrow. I really don't want to play mahjong anymore. The Hou family is taking turns and my brother can't handle it. Let's leave tomorrow." Cheng Chu said to Yun Ye while walking away in confusion.
Wangcai learned well now. He held some grass in his mouth to show off. Yun Ye knew that it had not eaten at all, but was pretending to show it to Shan Ying. Shan Ying had been so troubled by the orphans and widows these days that he no longer had the time to care.
This gave Wangcai an opportunity to take advantage of it. The kit under his neck was confiscated by Shan Ying, and the servants did not allow Wangcai to go out. Without food, Wangcai had to come to Yun Ye to hang out.
Yun Ye was eating. He stood outside the window and watched, silent, just watching. Every time Yun Ye looked at it, he couldn't eat. Shan Ying's instructions had long been forgotten, and he could only eat a plate of Spring Festival cakes.
Feed it all and give it some herbal tea, so that Yun Ye can eat by himself. Xin Yue complains every time, saying that Wangcai was spoiled by Yun Ye. If the pig looks like Xiaoya,
Same, but what the hell. The chatter at home was annoying, so I decided to take Wangcai out for a walk, to walk around and take a look at the street scene of Luoyang.
Qian Yuan was the eldest son of Steward Qian. Seeing that Mr. Hou was about to go out, he called six guards, plus himself and Yun San, who accompanied Yun Ye out of the house.
Luoyang is obviously not as grand as Chang'an. The streets are winding. Unlike Chang'an, you can see all the way from one end to the other. They are only three feet wide and narrow. The arched Tianjin Bridge is on both sides of the Jinshui River. This river is
It is an artificial river. Although it is not wide, it is two feet deep. The water flow is slow, and the boat driving on it is like walking. In some places, it even runs very slowly, and you can hardly feel the boat moving.
There are no trees by the river. There are not even a few grasses. There are two paths paved with granite on both sides of the river bank, which have been slicked by feet. Every few dozen feet, there are holes in the ground with thick stone strips inserted.
, the stone bars are full of marks made by cables.
On these two granite paths, there used to be thousands of half-naked women dragging tall dragon boats on the river. Their hairpin rings jingled. They were all dressed up and their steps needed to be neat. The so-called "Ying Shui"
"There will be no ripples". This old saying means that the women dragging the dragon boats must not make any ripples in the cups filled with water on the dragon boats. "Otherwise, the flag-slayers will destroy the flag-carrying flag bearers if ripples are made."
Beheading a woman, God, this is something that only a perverted person needs to be able to do.
The so-called "one step at a time" refers to this place. To create a naturally flowing river on a gentle plain with almost no drop, it requires exquisite and accurate measurement. The total length is twelve miles, and the drop is only five feet. These twelve miles are completely
There was no need to build it. A wide land road in Luoyang City was right next to him, which could fully meet the cargo handling of Luoyang. This twelve-mile road was just to satisfy the arrogant dream of a madman. Yun Ye suddenly disliked this section of the river and dragged it.
Leaving the river with Wangcai, he was afraid that he would hear the cries of the dead souls if he stayed for a while.
It is said that Uncle Ma is good at eating children's hearts, and he likes women's breasts the most, saying that there is no other delicacy in the world. Hearing this sentence is a kind of pain, and coming to the scene of the incident makes people's hearts beat.
Cold. This is a dirty city where the most ruthless lunatics and the most terrifying demons gather in the world.
Hearing the distant shouts of a merchant shouting for freshly baked goat milk cakes, Yun Ye covered his mouth and wanted to vomit. Yun San took off the water bottle from his waist and handed it to Yun Ye. Yun Ye drank three gulps in a row before he felt comfortable.
Some.
I have to leave this city as soon as possible, otherwise the pictures in my mind will torture me into a lunatic, Yun Ye murmured to himself.
Wangcai drooled when he looked at the green fruits in the vendor's bamboo basket, and the white fruit drooled. Yun Ye took out his handkerchief to wipe his mouth clean, and motioned Qian Yuan to buy some for Wangcai to eat.
It was very cheap. I bought a lot of it for three yuan. I carried it in my robe to the nearby restaurant and asked the waiter to clean it up. Yun Ye didn't enter the restaurant because he really couldn't stand the sourness of the over-fermented green ant wine.
Nasty smell.
The boss personally put the green fruits on the plate and brought it over, hunched over and waiting for Yun Ye's instructions. At this time, the waiter had already begun to announce the name of his dish in a tactful tone at the top of his voice.
Yun Ye listened with a smile. The atmosphere of life in the market was so strong. Perhaps only the atmosphere of life could slightly cover up the rancid smell left by the former Sui Dynasty.
After listening to it three times in a row, he was finally satisfied. Yun Ye took out a golden melon seed and threw it to the flattered waiter. The boss bowed and left with a smile. He could see that Yun Ye had no intention of drinking or eating.
Just want to take a rest.
Yun Ye actually hates shopping. Whenever there are many people, he feels as if he is in a dream. All people and things suddenly seem to become props in a movie. He is the only outsider in this movie.
Like a dream.
The sound of Wangcai chewing the fruit pulled Yun Ye out of his weird state. Seeing that Wangcai tasted delicious, he also picked up a fruit and tasted it. Yes, it tasted very good. It was a kind of fruit that Yun Ye had not seen before.
The green-skinned fruit is delicious and juicy.
"The man and the horse ate fruit from the same plate."
"Don't talk too much about the quirks of wealthy people."
"It's a pity that those green fruits are all fed to the livestock, and they cost a penny a pound,"
It's not that Yun Ye didn't hear these comments, he just found them interesting. Except for the sentence about Qingguo feeding the animals, which made his face full of black lines, he was actually a little happy about the other comments, and he didn't know which part of his mind it was.
It's broken. Anyway, I just like listening to it.
The guards only pulled out the knife a little, and those who were watching dispersed in a hurry. One of the children was so frightened that he cried. This made Yun Ye feel very comfortable. How could he not do something bad when he came to Luoyang City?
"Master Hou, the curfew is coming soon, and you should go back home." Qian Yuan whispered beside Yun Ye. He could see that Master Hou was not happy about this shopping trip, although Master Hou was trying hard to make himself happy.
I felt happy, but the effect was obviously not good.
"I didn't hear the sound of the Jingjie drum." Yun Ye was sure that there was nothing wrong with his ears, but he just didn't hear the sound of the drum. It was 108 times, how could he not hear it.
"Master Marquis, drums are played in Chang'an and not in other places. The same is true in Luoyang. You see, Wu Hou has started to patrol the streets." Qian Yuan patiently explained to Yun Ye the differences between Luoyang and Chang'an.
"I see, then let's go home." Yun Ye stuffed the last fruit into Wangcai's mouth, clapped his hands and took Wangcai home. Along the way, no Marquis Wu dared to come up and question him.
In this regard, Luoyang is incomparable with Chang'an. As long as the curfew is over in Chang'an, no matter who they are, Marquis Wu has the right to question them.
Xinyue stood in the yard waiting for Yun Ye to come home. When she saw Yun Ye coming back, she happily went up to him, but found that her husband seemed very lonely and put a smile on his face, which was very stiff.
"Husband, today is my fault. I shouldn't play tricks, let alone talk nonsense to annoy you. I will send those peonies I picked back to others, and I will go and apologize. I just ask you not to be angry.
."
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm not happy because I had a lot of fun shopping today. I ate a plate of fruits with Wangcai and was laughed at by everyone in Luoyang. They also said that the fruits were all fed to animals. I obviously ate them too."
Seeing Xin Yue's face full of panic, Yun Ye randomly found an excuse to cover up his nostalgic melancholy by the river in the afternoon.
"What do these killers, Qian Yuan, Yun San, and the guards do for a living? Even the head of the house can't protect them well, so what's the use of them? I'm going to deal with these useless people now. My husband has been wronged. Please rest first."
Come on, I'll come as soon as I go."
"Forget it, you're crazy again. If you have time, you might as well pick some beautiful peonies to wear on your head to make me feel better." He put Xin Yue under his arm and returned to the house.
The house is full of peonies. I guess all the blooming flowers in the garden of the Song family, who likes to grow flowers, are here. Yao, Huang, Wei and Zi are very colorful. Each flower is as big as the mouth of a bowl. They are very gorgeous, but they have no fragrance. Peonies
There has never been any fragrance, just a hint of grass.
Xin Yue picked out a purple peony and asked Yun Ye to put it on her high beard. Sure enough, the flower was more beautiful than the person, and the person was more delicate than the flower.
Xin Yue danced another big red flower and put it behind Yun Ye's ear. She said that the most beautiful flower in a man's family was the big red flower. She also put her face close to Yun Ye's, making a mandarin duck like gesture.
Feeling Xin Yue's delicate pink face and smelling the rich sweet fragrance on her body, Yun Ye couldn't help but think: The whole family of the Song family must be crying so hard that they can't live anymore.
