Chapter 149 Fun
Chapter 149 Fun
It was rare for the husband and wife to go shopping together, so Xiang Yuan and Zhao Shen didn't sit in a sedan chair, but walked slowly.
Coming out of Zhangjia Alley, Xiang Yuan and Zhao Shen walked along the inner moat.There are a row of weeping willows planted on the bank of the river. The willow branches are green and green, and they hang down to the ground long, like women dressing up facing the river.
Opposite the weeping willow, separated by a road, are restaurants with various guises. They are small in size, but each has its own characteristics, such as fried oat noodles, steamed sugar cakes, fried oil cakes, bean porridge, and wontons. The Yangchun noodles are steaming hot and fragrant for miles.
"This is good, let's eat here at noon."
Xiang Yuan pulled Zhao Shen into a shop specializing in pasta.Seeing that the two were dressed richly and behaved differently, the shopkeeper was very restrained for a while, and greeted them with smiles on their faces, and asked them respectfully what they wanted to use.
Most of the restaurants in their area are engaged in the business of porters and peddlers. It is rare for an official family living in the alley to buy some food, and the servants have their nostrils turned upside down. They hate this and that.
At this moment, the two people who were obviously distinguished guests came in, he was afraid that he would think that the shop was small, and he would also find fault with the dirty tables and chairs, and the dishes were not clean, and he didn't earn much money. Get angry.Therefore, the store owner is still wishing that the two of them will look down on this small store.
"Look at your three fresh noodles here. Serve us two bowls, two big bowls. Another cold three shredded noodles and one old vinegar fungus."
Seeing that Xiang Yuan and the two sat down and ordered food without hesitation, and they didn't point to the shop during the period, the shopkeeper heaved a sigh of relief and quickly responded.
Zhao Shen looked around, and saw that although the shop was small, it was clean and tidy, the tables and chairs were spotlessly wiped, and there was a bamboo tube on each table for chopsticks, which looked refreshing.After only looking at it for a while, Zhao Shen looked away.There was no way, the shopkeeper's wife standing behind who was responsible for cash register was nervous. He looked at that, and the shopkeeper's wife turned around. He couldn't see the nervous look.
"I'm pretty sure the two of us really came to eat noodles."
When the daughter-in-law suddenly said this in a low voice, Xiang Yuan was only taken aback for a moment, and then laughed.
"Just by looking at the appearance and dressing up, it doesn't look like we are going to have a king's meal or find faults, right?"
Xiang Yuan couldn't stop laughing.
"Daughter-in-law, we have our own aura. It is understandable for the ordinary people to be shocked for a while. After eating, you can reward some copper coins as compensation."
Zhao Shen was dumbfounded.
The skin of this chap is getting thicker day by day!You can say such big words that you have your own aura and shock others without changing your face.He boasted that he was very proficient in business, and he was willing to hide his face, but when compared with Congzi, he was still inferior.
As soon as he cupped his hands, Zhao Shen shook his head and sighed, "I admire you, no one can surpass you in terms of your ability to feel good about yourself."
The shopkeeper brought out the three fresh noodles tremblingly, seeing the two of them talking and laughing, he couldn't help but feel a little more relieved.
"Second masters take it slowly."
Xiang Yuan looked at him with a half-smile, pointed at Zhao Shen, and said, "The store owner has poor eyesight, this is my wife."
The shopkeeper with a simple and honest face was startled, thinking that he had offended the other party, he quickly changed his words: "Ah, ah, I'm rude, I'm sorry, this Lord and husband, that's wrong, He Zhengjun, use it slowly."
Zhao Shen glared at Xiang Yuan: It's so wicked and scary!Look, the shopkeeper was horrified, and cold sweat came out of his forehead.
"Those who don't know are not to be blamed, the shopkeeper is busy."
As soon as Zhao Shen spoke, the shopkeeper ran away to hide behind as if he had been pardoned.
Xiang Yuan ate noodles with a muffled smile.Zhao Shen glanced at him, couldn't hold back his laughter, afraid of hurting the poor shopkeeper again, he hastily lowered his head to cover it up.
"Daughter-in-law, laugh before eating, be careful not to choke your throat."
Zhao Shen: (⊙o⊙)
Ma Dan, I really want to flip the table.
"Yesterday, my elder brother wrote a letter saying that Yan Anjiu had failed several times to be elected, so I wanted to ask him to come to the capital to have a look. If it is convenient here, I planned to ask Anjiu to study in the capital academy like Zhuang Zhuang. Oh, and we Mother, follow along."
Zhao Shen was stunned for a moment, and said: "Mother is planning to stay in Beijing for a long time?"
"She's not used to living here, so she probably wants to visit the capital while still able to move around."
"Mother, if you live longer, maybe you can catch up with Brother Yu to greet the bride."
Xiang Yu's marriage is scheduled for the end of the year, and the time is a bit rushed.However, considering what Xiang Yu said about Brother Yu's situation, Zhao Shen pushed himself and others, and also hoped that Brother Yu would leave Zhang's house as soon as possible.
After a few bites of noodles, Xiang Yuan wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and said, "I forgot to mention, brother and the others have already set off for nearly ten days, and calculating the time, it is estimated that they will soon arrive in the capital."
"What? Why didn't you tell me last night!"
The sooner you know, the better you can make arrangements earlier.Not to mention the accommodation must be arranged in advance, as well as the eating and living utensils in each house, all of which must be arranged differently according to the preferences of different people.Especially Mrs. Li, who is an elder, he must arrange everything properly, so that people can't find reason.
"Last night, you were busy."
Xiang Yuan's light words made Zhao Shen's face turn red.
Hastily settled the bill with the shopkeeper, and stuffed a handful of copper coins as a tip, Xiang Yuan chased after his daughter-in-law with a smile on her face.
"Have you become angry from embarrassment? Old man, old man, it's so easy to be shy!"
Zhao Shen gritted his teeth, slandering bitterly in his heart: Shameless Xiang Congzi, how dare you mention what happened last night!
Xiang Yuan's words came in from his ears, and after shaking around, they caused ripples in his mind, and Zhao Shen couldn't help recalling what happened last night.
After dinner, Zhuozhuo was put to sleep, Zhao Shencai stretched his waist, and was mysteriously pulled closer to the inner room by Xiang Yuan, and slowly unfolded the first painting by the candlelight.
Zhao Shen knew that Xiang Yuan was good at painting, and when he saw Xiang Yuan painting by himself, he was immediately very interested.But as soon as the painting was opened, Zhao Shenzai looked it over carefully twice, and felt that there seemed to be something wrong.
This is a picture of drunkenness. In the painting, the man's cheeks are flushed, his eyes are slightly squinted, and he is lying reclined on the Arhat bed placed in the garden. The front of his clothes is slightly opened, revealing a delicate collarbone. very similar.Surrounded by flowers and trees, the shadows are wrong, and it seems that you can hear the sound of birds and buzzing when you close your eyes.However, in the lower right corner of the painting, where it seems to be the corner gate of the garden, a piece of clothes is faintly exposed.
Zhao Shen couldn't understand it, and wanted to praise a few words, but he didn't know how to put it.Congzi has never made such a style of painting, and there is no precedent for reference. He is also a layman, and he is not proficient in any piano, calligraphy and painting except for playing chess.Pian Congzi also asked him for his opinion, Zhao Shenhan dealt with it vaguely, thinking that Congzi would definitely explain it to him, but unexpectedly he opened the second picture directly.
This time, the person in the previous picture with a piece of clothing exposed appeared in the picture, and the eyebrows and eyes were clearly Congzi himself.I saw the man in the painting standing in front of the drunk man without hesitation, half kneeling and leaning forward, with one hand on the man's belt and the other holding the man's face, it was, it was kissing.
Seeing this, Zhao Shen's face burned up, and now he looked at the man in the painting whose eyebrows and eyes were similar to his own and was kissed by the scorpion in the painting, for no reason, his whole body became hot.
Xiang Yuan watched the words and expressions, and didn't say anything, just opened the third picture with a smile.
Just looking at this picture, Zhao Shen blushed and quickly looked away, hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but turn back to look again, his heart was beating wildly when he saw it, and he quickly looked away again , but within a short breath, the eyes still turned back as if they were out of their control.
The Congzi in the painting has half-faded the man’s clothes, and the scattered clothes only slightly cover the private position, and the rest are exposed. One leg with a beautiful line is hung separately on the back of the Arhat bed, and the other hangs on the ground. Curled up slightly.The clothes of the man in the painting are half-faded, but the man in the painting is seen from the back, but the clothes are intact, only the belt is pulled out, his back is facing the viewer, and he is lying on the man, holding the man's hand with both hands and pressing it on the man. On the top of the head, slightly staggered the cheeks, and kissed the person under him with a very focused expression.And the most embarrassing thing is that the lower body and lower body of the two are connected together!All the ghosts know what they are doing!
Zhao Shen felt that his throat was smoking, his mouth was dry, his face was scorching hot, his whole body was unbearably hot, and what was even more annoying was that there was a surge of heat in his lower and abdomen, where he raised his head early.
But Xiang Yuan didn't finish it yet. After reading these three paintings, he actually opened the other ones. Compared with the implicitness of the previous three paintings, the next few paintings are simply indecent!The blue sky and white sun, the wilderness, the airtight tea room full of people outside, all kinds of provocative scenes, all kinds of whimsical poses, Zhao Shen didn't know that there are so many ways to enjoy Guo Lun's joy!
Who would have thought, who would have thought that Mr. Xiang, the third grade Zuo Shilang, Xiang Yuan, who was once hailed as the leader of the interest and realism school, would paint that kind of painting in private!Don't talk about the painting, but I have to drag him to refer to it together.
Zhao Shen thought of the few pictures of XX who were hesitant to speak, wanting to cover up, and whose movements were obscured by half-faded clothes.
"Daughter-in-law, weren't those actions last night very good?"
Also say!
I knew that Congzi had no good intentions.Clearly asking him for details, but in reality, he moved his hands and feet, coaxing him to experiment with the movements on the picture as if smearing honey on his mouth.Zhao Shen was impatient looking at the picture, couldn't hold it back, was dragged into the tent, made a fuss, and in the end his waist was sore and his legs were weak, but Xiang Congzi was like a full-fed cat, very contented up.After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Shen wanted to bite someone!
"It's hard to go out for a stroll, we have to look everywhere."
Xiang Yuan was well versed in the principle of accepting as soon as he was offered, and seeing his daughter-in-law's anger and embarrassment becoming more and more obvious, he hurriedly changed the subject.
The two walked along the blue brick road and walked into the inner city. There are many shops in the city, bustling with pedestrians and full of vitality.
After walking for such a long time, and the weather was hot, Xiang Yuan dragged Zhao Shen to find a place to buy ice water and sat down, each of them ordered a portion of ice water and tortoise jelly.
Zhao Shen slowly ate with a spoon while looking around.
He went to work with Xiang Yuan, and traveled to many places, such as the poor ones like Tongping Mansion, and the rich and luxurious ones like Hejian Jiangnan, but all the places are not as prosperous and solemn as the capital city. The tranquility and weight accumulated over the years, no matter what kind of business you do, you can easily see the unique complacency of the people in the capital.
This is a day of peace and prosperity, giving the people in the capital unparalleled confidence.
After eating the ice water, the two changed their route and turned back. Passing by a street selling gold, silver, jadeite and jade jewelry, Zhao Shen suddenly grabbed Xiang Yuan, pointed to a jewelry shop not far away, and asked "Do you know whose shop it is?"
Xiang Yuan looked at the embroidered cover hanging outside the shop, and said with a smile: "Of course it's from Jin Yan, I know that."
Zhao Shen then signaled him to see that the two shops across the street were also engaged in the jewelry business, and asked with a little complacency, "Do you know which shop these two shops across the street belong to?"
Xiang Yuan shook his head.
Zhao Shen lifted his chin and said triumphantly: "The left side belongs to the Wang family, and the right side belongs to the Qin family. Before my shop opened, these two shops have the best business, and they are not even close to each other. But wait for my shop to open. , and now, it is my shop that overwhelms the two of them."
"The daughter-in-law is amazing!"
Xiang Yuan praised him sincerely.
Zhao Shen was triumphant: "Tell them to bully us! In the future, I will take all their business and tell them to look at our eyebrows and make them look angry."
Xiang Yuan laughed.
"Okay, I'll wait for my daughter-in-law to vent her anger."
