Da Suining

Chapter 146
Xiang Daying won't be angry if she comes back late.

Or, he doesn't care at all.

As long as his love and affection go back, it will be fine.

The moonlight is very beautiful, and the downtown area of ​​Qingcheng is full of the smell of fireworks.

Haven't been this relaxed for a long time.

It doesn't matter if you go back after a wave.

The long streets in Qingcheng are criss-crossed, along the long streets, there are row upon row of shops, and the heavy houses extend all the way to the foot of Qingcheng Mountain.

It was still brightly lit, the sign at the entrance of the shop hadn't been retracted, and the lantern hanging at the entrance had just been replaced with candles, so bright that even the moles on people's faces could be seen clearly.

The porridge shop was full of people, and the women ordered a bowl of vermicelli, served with pickled vegetables, sauerkraut and some sour bamboo shoots, topped with a spoonful of chicken soup, and took a sip with relish.

A small shop, with more than a dozen people sitting, was full, and the big iron pot set up at the door was emitting white smoke. The shopkeeper took the soaked vermicelli out of the wooden bucket, put it in a wooden colander, and Put the colander into the boiling water, scald it, shake it back and forth twice, then take it out and put it in a bowl. Although it is very neat, it is already too busy.

I just feel the tempting aroma floating out of the pot, mixed with the smell of fireworks in the air, which makes people have the illusion of Chinese New Year.

After passing the porridge noodle shop, it is a shop that sells boiled skewers. There is also an iron pot set up at the door, but the iron pot is shallower, only half the size of an ordinary pot.

A wooden board was placed in the pot, which was divided into two parts, one was the bottom of the red oil, and the other was the bottom of the clear soup and mushrooms. In the bottom, there were a hundred skewers evenly stacked. The meat ones included chicken gizzards, chicken tenders, beef, Crispy bones, duck intestines, shredded tripe, vegetarian dishes include mushrooms, broccoli, vegetables, cucumbers, and potatoes.

These skewers are boiled hot in the soup, soaked in the soup, and the aroma can be smelled from a long distance.The owner puts the boiled skewers into a large bowl and brings them to the shop for the guests to enjoy. He also puts the skewered skewers, such as duck blood and leeks, into a dish for people to choose from.

Qingcheng is so nice, you can eat whatever you want.

And it doesn't cost money to stand and smell.

Like a fairy, Xiang Suining stretched his neck and smelled it for a while at the door of the shop selling porridge powder, and then at the door of the shop selling skewers. I'm afraid it's already gone.

When I looked up, the bright moon was in the sky, and the lights were brightly lit. How could the blue fade?
It seems that he is going to patrol Baolong Street?

Turn left and you will find Baolong Street.

As soon as Xiang Suining turned into the alley, he saw Lan Fai on the other side of the alley, and hurried back.

"What's wrong with the girl?" Mingzhu looked at it, not knowing why, "Why did the girl come back?"

"Master Xiaolan is at the front."

"Master Xiaolan wants to patrol?"

"He's going to patrol Paulon Street."

"Girl, are you going to Baolong Street?"

Hey, after being with Xiang Suining for a long time, Mingzhu seems to be enlightened.

Suddenly being spotted by her, Xiang Suining had to try hard to cover up: "I'll just walk around...Wherever I go, it doesn't matter..."

He was clearly following Lan Fai, but pretended to be calm.

Lan Tui and Xiang Suining were originally about ten steps away, Xiang Suining was greedy and spent time lingering at these restaurants, logically speaking Lan Tui should have gone far away, why is he still not far away?

After weighing it in her heart, Mingzhu had the answer: "Master Xiaolan is waiting for a girl, right?"

"nonsense."

"Otherwise, if Master Xiaolan doesn't go on patrol, why stop at the other end of the alley?" Mingzhu was a little puzzled: "Otherwise, the girl is walking with Master Xiaolan?"

"A man and a woman can't kiss each other, is that okay?" Xiang Suining shyly said, "Is Master Xiaolan still there? Let me see."

Xiang Suining poked his head and looked like a thief, and there was Lan Fai's figure at the other end of the alley.

There is a trace of loss in my heart.

It seems that Lan Fai is on patrol.

It seems that I am an old peacock with a tail, and I am being affectionate.

Xiang Suining walked dully through the alley, looked up at the moonlight, it seemed that the moonlight was not as good as before.

He walked another two steps in a dull mood, and when he looked up, he found a familiar figure in front of the green orange stand, only ten steps away from her.

Isn't it blue fading?

Xiang Suining grinned.

"Girl, girl, Lord Xiaolan is right ahead. Girl, hurry up and catch up with him."

"Shh-reserved-reserved" Xiang Suining blinked his eyes, Mingzhu's performance was too obvious, what should I do if I scare Lan Tui away?
You still have to get closer to him, otherwise these people, crowded around, will disappear after a while.

It doesn't work even if it's close, what should I do if I'm found?
"Girl, girl, look at the black shadow in the moon, does it look like Chang'e who cuts trees? When I was a child, I heard that there was a fairy named Chang'e who lived in the moon all year round and was in charge of cutting trees."

"It was Wu Gang who cut down the tree."

"Girl, girl, look at the cloud next to the moon, so red, so well-proportioned, does it look like a freshly grown eggplant?"

"Eggplants are purple."

"Girl, aren't we admiring the moon? Why don't you look at the sky, girl?"

She was discovered again.

The aunt who sells green oranges is busy calling them green oranges. At this time, the green oranges are big and soft. When you bite a piece in your mouth, you will squeeze your eyes sour at first, and then the taste will be sweet again, full of juice. Green oranges are people's favorite fruit in this season.

The aunt may be old, her eyes are not good, and her hands are trembling. She put the green oranges in a paper bag and handed them to the guests. If she was not careful, she took her hand to the cart pulling the green oranges. Four or five green oranges Falling from the car, it was round and rolled away.

The auntie has gray hair and bad hands and feet. She bends over to chase Qingju but she can't catch up. She wipes the juice from her forehead with a handkerchief: "Oh, it's a pity that Qingju... went into the river again... ouch ... sweet orange."

The aunt slapped her legs anxiously.

Xiang Suining hurried over and bent over to pick up the green oranges.

One, two, fortunately she ran extremely fast and stopped the orange in time before it fell into the Yong'an River.

There was still an orange rolling away, and she stretched out her arms to hold the orange, but unexpectedly, a hand also went to press the orange, and her hand touched his hand.

Looking up, it was Lan Fai.

Xiang Suining's hand was just on top of his.

His hands were a little cold, with slender, even and beautiful fingers.His hands glowed white under the moonlight, and his nails were neatly cut and looked neat.

He stared blankly at the orange.

She pressed his hand.

The two of them just squatted in a daze.

"That...." Lan faded a little embarrassed: "That..."

"What's wrong? What's wrong with Master Xiaolan?"

"There's something pressing on my hand..."

"Ok?"

"I mean...it's like...the orange was squashed by us."

Xiang Suining quickly withdrew his hand.

Lan Fai raised her hand, the juice of green orange was on her hand, and the sweet and sour smell of green orange was in the air.

That poor green orange was crushed to death by two people, now the green peel burst, and the orange inside was completely dead, sticking to the ground, I'm afraid it can't even be peeled off.

"This..." Lan Tui smiled: "I'm a rough man, I don't have much sense in my hands...."

"Don't blame Master Xiaolan, I pressed you too hard." Feeling that there was something wrong with this sentence, Xiang Suining weighed it over and over again: "It's me... I shouldn't have pressed Master Xiaolan's hand...."

The aunt who sells green oranges has already rushed over. Seeing the two of them like this, the aunt smiled and said: "The oranges are very soft now. If you touch them with your hands, they will be disfigured."

Lan Tui wanted to take out the money bag: "I will pay the compensation to the aunt."

The aunt pressed his hand: "The young master and the young lady are all out of kindness to help me pick up the green oranges. How can I make the young master lose money? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to recover any of the green oranges that fell. .”

The aunt accepted several green oranges that Xiang Suining handed over, picked up the two biggest ones, stuffed one into Xiang Suining's hand and the other into Lan Tui's hand: "I would like to thank you for helping me, old woman, green oranges are not worth it. All the money is grown on our own fruit trees, young master, girl, let’s eat something fresh.”

The aunt is kind, so I don't want to accept it.

Xiang Suining and Lan Tui each took a green orange and walked eastward along the Yong'an River.

Mingzhu knew the interest, took a few steps back automatically, and followed from a distance.

Walking to a peddler selling lanterns, Xiang Suining took out a handkerchief and told Lan Tui, "Lord Xiao Lan, stretch out your hand."

Lan faded a little nervous.

I usually come and go in the wind and rain, and I am used to seeing big scenes and have never been timid.

Even in a life-and-death duel with those desperadoes, he never retreated.

She said: "Stretch out your hand." It made him nervous like a child.

Her eyes shone with pure light, as pure as the cleanest water.

Lan Fai looked a little dazed, and couldn't help being obedient like a child.

Lan Tuo held Qingju in one hand and stretched out the other hand.

"Both hands outstretched."

Ok.

Lan Tui had no choice but to stretch out both hands, and spread them flat in front of Xiang Suining, the round green orange was in his palm.

"Mingzhu, come here and get the orange."

Mingzhu took the oranges carefully, and whispered in her ear: "Miss, don't you even want to grab the oranges from Mrs. Xiaolan? Those green oranges are very cheap. If you want to eat them, I'll buy a bag for you. You really don't like it." Leave one for Lord Xiaolan?"

Lan Tui's skills are good, unexpectedly his ears are also so good, he could hear every word Ming Zhu said, and said with a smile: "Second Miss likes to eat green oranges? Then these two green oranges belong to Second Miss."

"I don't want to eat green oranges." Xiang Suining took out the handkerchief that he carried with him, and gently brushed Lan Fa's palm with the handkerchief.

The backs of his hands are so clean and tender, but the palms of his hands are a little rough, and the places where he often touches knives are even calloused.

Maybe all martial arts practitioners are like this.

Xiang Suining took advantage of the moonlight to dry up the orange juice in Lan Di's hand bit by bit.

Every time you wipe it, blow it: "This will dry faster."

The warm, powdery air flowed over Lan Fan's palm, itching, gently, like the wind, like someone touching his heart.

Lan Fa's heart was beating so loudly that it was almost audible.

From childhood to adulthood, if you are a serious son of the Changxinhou Mansion, you will naturally see a lot of noble ladies.

He followed his mother since he was a child, even the little princess, and met several of them.

Those who went to the banquet and chatted in Changxinhou's mansion brought the noble daughters of various mansions, and Lan Tui also saw seven or eight.

It's just that the family has been tightly controlled since childhood. Even though they met, they said a few words politely, or saluted each other, and then they left.

His mother only had this one son, and she was usually more on guard. If any of the serving maids dared to have any crooked thoughts, or any outrageous ideas, they would not want to live, and the lightest ones would have to be thrown out. The government went to match a servant.

For example, in the summer when Lan Tui was 13 years old, because he injured his foot and was bleeding profusely, he invited the royal doctor in the palace to give him a diagnosis and treatment. Blue fading drink.

There was a maidservant who often waited on Lan Xing, maybe she felt that serving Lan Xing had no future, so while the princess and Master Hou were not in the mansion, she went to the kitchen and saw the medicine that the women had made for Lan Tui was drying on the pot. Then, he took the initiative to ask Ying: "Mothers are working hard, and they can't get away from the stove. I will help the mothers bring this medicine to the young master."

The women were busy preparing the noon meal, and thinking that she was used to serving Lan Xie, and they knew the basics, so they asked her to bring the medicine.

When the princess returned to the mansion, she happened to see the maid holding the medicine, she stirred it with a spoon, tasted it, swallowed it, nodded, and then fed the spoonful to Lan Tui.

The princess saw it at the door of the bedroom, and she was very moved at the time, thinking that this maid was trying the medicine herself, and she would try it herself for fear that the medicine would be hot and cold. How to reward this maid, she is really a role model.

Unexpectedly, the maid gave Lan Tui two mouthfuls of medicine, then poured the remaining medicine into the flowerpot, and as soon as she took off her shoes, she wanted to go to bed. It was summer, the sun was burning, and Lan Tui's clothes on the bed were thin. She was dressed in thin clothes, how could she get on the bed?
While she was halfway running, the princess was caught by her. The servant girl was so frightened that she would do anything at that time. She only said that she wanted to lie on the bed and pretend to be selfish with Lan Tui. Then the princess would keep her for the sake of fame. Well, she doesn't expect to be a wife and master, she just wants to be a housekeeper, so she can get both money and sex.

At that time, she was so angry with the princess that she almost lost her anger, and within an hour, she found a matchmaker and sold her out.

So since childhood, where has Lan Tui experienced any women?
It was the first time for him to be wiped by a girl.

His heart almost jumped into his throat.

He hardly dared to open his mouth, for fear that his heart would jump out when he spoke.

The peddler selling lanterns next to him watched the excitement for a while. It was the first time he saw such a caring scene, and he couldn't help feeling: "I always see girls shy, but it's really rare for a son to be so shy."

"Sell your lantern." Mingzhu coughed and winked at the lantern vendor.

Xiang Suining took two green oranges, one for herself and one for Lan.

Lan Tui held the green orange like a hot potato, and didn't know what to do for a while.

"Master Xiaolan, taste the taste of this green orange."

Lan Tui peeled off the green orange and handed it to Xiang Suining.

Xiang Suining took a bite, it was so sour that she bent over.

Lan Tui frowned: "What's wrong with the second girl? Choking?"

"Try the green orange."

Lan Tui took a sip and took a deep breath: "It's really sour."
