Daming's Bizarre Story: Painted Skin

Wang Zeng invited him to dinner?

After several thoughts in Zhaoran's mind, he decided to find a chance and push it.

He knew that Wang Zeng might be suspicious, so he didn't mention anything else, as long as Wang Zeng sent someone back to dig Ru Niang's grave, he knew it was empty.

The main purpose of Zhaoran's trip to Beijing was actually to return Jiuru's falling demon bow. He really didn't expect so many things to happen. If he was alone, he would not be afraid of Wang Zeng. At worst, he would change his skin, but at present he still has a lot It's over.

"Master, the snow fungus soup is here."

Zhaoran opened her eyes, and saw a sweet-looking maid holding a blue and white lotus bowl with a smile on her face. Seeing that Zhaoran opened her eyes, she picked up a spoon and began to feed Zhaoran soup. There was another maid with snow skin beside her. He pinched a plum and handed it over, "The soup is sweet and greasy, young master eat a plum to relieve the greasy."

Zhao Ran opened his mouth to eat, and thought in his heart that besides, he has many relatives... I don't know if Jiuru would like these girls, but after thinking about it carefully, these girls are all good, but they are not as good as Aning.

"Could it be that Jiu Ru dislikes that they are all maidservants, and their status is not high..." He clicked his tongue twice in his heart, thinking that Jiu Ru would pay back the pearls for buying a basket, but when he thought about it carefully, Jiu Ru seemed to be not such a person. Old farmers in the country can sit together and drink together, so how can they dislike a maidservant?

While he was thinking, he ate the food brought by the maid, and it was right.

Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang looked at each other and smiled. Mrs. Jiang said: "This girl from the Yang family is flirtatious. I don't think so. Ah Xian is not young, so this marriage cannot be delayed. Let the official media come in tomorrow. Let's see if there is a suitable lady."

"Are there many young ladies who can meet?" Zhao Ran regained her spirits.

Mrs. Jiang said with a smile: "Miss, you can't see it, but this official media has a unique skill, which can draw the appearance of the lady who has seen it. Of course, ordinary people can't see it. A painting can't be less than 50 taels of silver. , but our Jiang family... is the least short of money."

Zhao Ran was invigorated by his grandma's arrogance, and immediately said: "So there are many beautiful girls to see."

Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang both laughed "puchi". Mrs. Jiang said: "It is better for the main house to be good-looking, if you single out beautiful women..." The old lady glanced at the three women beside Zhaoran Laughing, "That's not everywhere yet."

But Jiuru's requirements are not low, and it may be difficult for ordinary women to seduce his heart, thinking clearly, he approached Mrs. Jiang with a smile and said: "Grandmother, let's see a few more."

"Okay!" Mrs. Jiang turned her head and said to Mrs. Jiang, "At first glance, our family A Xian looks a bit like that Rong Shiyi, but now I can't imagine half of it. This child is so clever, he is not a Silly boy."

Mrs. Jiang squatted down and smiled, "The old lady is polite."

----

Zhaoran hurried back to the courtyard after finishing talking with Mrs. Jiang. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard the bustle inside, and the maids and maids shouted around the jujube tree in the courtyard: "Young master, this tree can't be climbed, what's wrong with falling down?" .”

Zhaoran raised his head and saw Onion lying on the fork of the tree, and when he saw him, he came down along the trunk with a stabbing sound, and the bystanders exclaimed: "My God, how can this child climb a tree even if he can't walk? "

Onion held Zhaoran's clothes corner in his mouth, his face was full of grievances, Zhaoran remembered that he had lost his parents overnight, probably because he didn't see Zhaoran when he woke up, and was afraid that Zhaoran would disappear suddenly, so he climbed up the tree in fear I searched everywhere.

Zhao Ran patted his head and said: "A man needs to stand upright, and he wants to make money when he goes out. Otherwise, where will the food and drink come from?"

He didn't want to spoil Onion so much that he became a false lady, and he also had to get used to being away from time to time.

Onion immediately pointed at the corner of the yard with his short fingers.

Zhaoran took a closer look, there was a mouse hole there, it seems that the onion means that you can eat without going out, Zhaoran changed color and pointed to the hole: "Why is there a mouse hole in this yard?"

Everyone saw that there was indeed a mouse hole. This yard used to be Miss Jiang's residence. After she married away, Mrs. Jiang would certainly not let others live in it. Unexpectedly, the mouse moved in and made a nest.

This is not bad, the up and down are united, the cats are looking for cats, the watering is watering, the hole is sealing the hole, after a while, the mouse hole is blocked, and the courtyard wall has a new look.

Everyone was very unhappy, but Onion howled as soon as his mouth shrunk, and he clearly waved his hands to let the servants go down.Onion cried like a devil's voice, just this day and night made the servants miserable, but now it was clear that they were allowed to go down, the servants ran away as if they had been pardoned.

Zhao Ran poured himself a cup of tea and said leisurely: "Boys, you have to eat big and fast, so that you can grow up in the future. If you eat mice, you will be as big as a cat at most in the future. "

Onion's crying became quieter, and Zhao Ran made persistent efforts: "Look at you, when I was your age, I would already be able to recite the Three Character Classic, let alone the Three Character Classic, you can't even say three characters."

This problem is a bit serious... Onion's crying has become even quieter, but he is still a little unconvinced.

Zhao Ran pointed his fingers and said: "Do you know why? That's because I knew how to pick chickens when I was young. How much bigger do you think a chicken is than a mouse?" He gestured with his hand, "That's why I can grow so tall now..."

Onion suddenly became enlightened, and said "Wow" twice, which means that the cat that eats mice is bigger than the dog that eats chicken, so he picked up his index finger and flicked it on his forehead: "Of course I ate chicken when I was young." , when you grow up, you will change to eat bigger things! In short, if you want to grow up in the future, if you want to not be laughed at by others, marry more beautiful wives and beautiful concubines, and have two more fat boys, you should start eating chicken rise."

These few words are too familiar to Onion, they are all things his grandfather often chanted, "inheriting the family" are the four words that come out of his grandfather's mouth most often, Onion's face is solemn, thinking The chicken was too small, so he had to pick a bigger one to eat.

People are bigger than chickens!

His eyes glanced at Zhao Ran's figure, and it was indeed bigger than a chicken, but he weighed it up, as if he was a bit reluctant, and thought about the servants in the yard one by one, thinking that they were not bad, their expression was similar to that of San Tun The villagers in the village are about the same.

Onion thought for a while, and decided to wrong himself first, and start eating chicken.

Eat chicken first, then people!

Zhao Ran's early education was so hasty, how did he know that there was such a boss's blueprint in the belly of Onion's little chicken.

----

In the afternoon, someone from the Jiang residence came to measure the clothes for him, and at the same time brought a lot of luxurious ready-made clothes and accessories. It seems that Mrs. Jiang wanted to make Zhaoran dress up before the official media came to the door. The official media can draw the portrait of the young lady , then naturally he can also draw a portrait of the young master.

Zhaoran dismantled one of the leather cloaks and made onion pads and knee pads. Strictly speaking, it was time for Onion to walk upright. Crawl and go.

Onion got the equipment, and was really happy in his heart, thinking that now he could climb very far to eat people.

"Don't go out on the street without the company of an adult, you know?" Zhao Ran prepared for a rainy day, and then frightened Onion: "If you go out on the street casually, you will be abducted, and then you won't even be able to find me!"

In fact, Zhaoran doesn't think that Onion will suffer. If there is a kidnapper who wants to steal Onion, then most likely it will not be Onion but the kidnapper who will call for help in the end. He is afraid that a stranger as small as Onion will go to the downtown and will not know how to hide it. , will scare passers-by and make people see the clues.

Onion didn't take it seriously when he heard the first half of his sentence, but he really pondered for a while when he heard the second half, and finally decided to follow Zhaoran first, and then slowly figure out such big things as cannibalism.

"Young master, a pair of brothers and sisters came outside the door, saying that you told them that you would take them in as servants, and the old lady asked me to bring them here for you to see." Steward He's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Brothers and sisters?" Zhao Ran got up and went out, and saw Aning and Ying Ning standing outside, they were wearing patched thin clothes standing in the yard as if shivering.

Zhao Ran praised him in his heart, this down-and-out man really looked good.

"There is such a thing. I saw them on the road and thought they were pitiful. Just as my grandmother told me to match me with servants and maids, I decided to keep them on my own. Is it okay?"

Housekeeper He smiled and said, "Young master, don't worry, what's the trouble? The Jiang family is kind-hearted and has a tradition of taking in orphans and widows to work in the mansion. The villain was picked up by the old lady."

Clearly...

I can't blame housekeeper He for looking at him indifferently at the beginning, probably because the old lady annoyed her silly father, Rong Shiyi, and even annoyed him.

"Master, then I will ask someone to send them two sets of clothes when I turn around, and then I will ask someone to train them properly."

"No need, I heard that Ah Ning also worked as a maidservant of a rich family in the south, so she came to the capital all the way to find relatives." He changed his words, "But this Ah Ying...you have to be careful. Tune and tune."

Ying Ning couldn't help raising her eyelids, and stared at Zhao Ran fiercely with her long and narrow phoenix eyes.

Zhao Ran grinned and didn't care.

Steward He was used to being the housekeeper of a big family, obedient to what he said, and there was something he didn't understand clearly. He thought that it seemed that the young master had taken a fancy to his elder sister, and he was still a little dissatisfied with this younger brother.

He glanced at Ying Ning, and immediately felt the evil spirit on his body, he couldn't help thinking, it seems that the young master still has the blood of the Jiang family after all, his eyesight is so good, this kid really wants to study hard Well, if it's done well, it's also a material for looking after a home.

Butler He straightened up, half-cast his eyes and said, "Then Ah Ning stay, Ah Ying will follow me."

Ying Ning had no choice but to walk out with Steward He, and just halfway there, she heard Zhao Ran say behind her: "Well done, I will stay, if anyone in our house makes any trouble, then our master and servant This is the end of my love, and I will never see you again in the future."

After hearing this, Butler He felt that the young master's expression of kindness and majesty had a bit of the demeanor of an old lady, and he was very happy. He thought that the old lady had vision, and the young master really didn't look like Rong Shiyi at all.

Ying Ning didn't know that Zhaoran was threatening him, if he never saw Zhaoran again, then he would never want to see Runiang's human skin again, he gritted his teeth, turned around and said: "I remember what the young master said. "

Butler He said from the side: "This sentence is wrong. You call yourself me in front of the young master. Isn't it against the rules, you have to call yourself a villain!"

The teeth in Yingning's mouth were almost broken, she raised her head and looked leisurely and said clearly: "Little... I remember the young master's words."

Then the housekeeper said: "Re-speak."

Ying Ning said: "Didn't I already call myself a villain?!"

He Guanjia said: "The tone is wrong. You have to know in your heart that this poor life of yours was picked up by the young master. I want to hear it come from your heart."

Ying Ning pursed her lower lip and turned her head, "The villain has remembered what the young master said."

Butler He folded his hands in his sleeves and said slowly: "Re-speak."

Ying Ning almost choked.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Ran thought of Ru Niang for some reason, and suddenly felt that teasing Ying Ning was no longer fun, so he raised his hand and said, "Forget it, I think he has improved a bit, take your time."

Steward He thought, the young master is still young, he is a little soft-hearted, he raised his eyes and said: "Thank you to the young master."

Ying Ning raised her phoenix eyes and glanced at Zhao Ran, and actually bent down seriously: "The villain thanked the young master."

Steward He then turned around and took him away, Ah Ning looked at their backs and said, "Ying Ning has already started to kill, young master, you must be careful in the future."

Ying Ning didn't have the intention to kill, but did it early, and smiled clearly: "I'm not afraid of him."

----

Zhao Ran changed into new outfits, and then took Aning out. Not long after he walked out of the alley, he saw Jiu Ru wearing a black Confucian outfit standing on a bookstore stand flipping through books.

Except for the lack of a white wipe on the forehead, it is exactly the same as the original dress in the Li Mansion. It seems that Jiu Ru didn't want to disturb too many people, so she disguised herself.

"Uncle Jiuru." Zhao Ran enthusiastically waved to him.

Jiu Ru closed the book in his hand and turned his head. He didn't wear a robe, which made him less dignified and alienated. He looked like a gentle and handsome scholar.

Every time Aning hears a stranger talking about the Buddha, he always has an expression as if he is facing a big enemy. In his heart, he has long portrayed Jiuru as a man with a hideous face. .

Jiu Ru didn't even look at her, but said to Zhao Ran: "Have you changed your clothes?"

Zhaoran stretched out his hand and showed it to Jiuru from top to bottom: "See my hair crown? This bead is from the South China Sea. See my belt? It's a real golden belt. See my hair crown. Is the cloak on your body gone? Mink fur, red mink fur, worth 1 taels of silver."

Jiuru let out an indifferent "Oh".

Zhaoran crawled out of the grave, never wore an inch of hair, and now wears gold and silver, this is not only an earth-shaking change, his sense of accomplishment is almost bursting, who knows that Jiu Ru just said "oh".

"You, what do you think?" Zhao Ran asked without giving up.

Jiu Ru turned around and threw a word to him: "Ugly."

Zhao Ran chased after his back and said angrily: "Ugly, what's so ugly, these are clothes from the most expensive and best tailor shop in the capital." , probably because he stayed too much in the temple, and he was stupid. Thinking about it this way, I feel a little pity for him, and I don't care about him anymore.

"I've asked the official media to find it for you. In the next few days, portraits of ladies from all walks of life will be sent over. Then I'll let you pick one. I'm sure I'll find one you're satisfied with." Zhao Ran returned to business.

Jiu Ru said "hmm" again, obviously seeing that he was interested, so he couldn't help but educate him a few words: "But you can't just pick the beautiful ones, for the main house, you should choose a good-looking and strong man .”

He copied the first half of this sentence from Mrs. Jiang, and the second half is based on his own experience in educating Onion. Fortunately, he can still remember that Jiuru is not an onion after all, so he didn't use "a strong body to give birth" "These words are complete.

Jiuru turned his head to look at him and said, "Okay."

Satisfied, Zhao Ran took the lead and walked forward, Jiu Ru didn't ask where he was going, just followed slowly.

Aning was so sweaty when she heard what she heard behind them, she couldn't help turning her head around to see if there were people from the Buddhist sect, for fear that someone passing by who recognized Jiuru's identity would happen to listen to Zhao Ran's words, and I don't know if Zhaoran will be burned as a monster by the believers.

They came here to break the Buddha's lust precept, but she always thought that they came secretly, quietly, quietly, and seduced the Buddha to seal Liujing, who knew that Zhaoran was so upright, and they all found an official matchmaker coming.

Aning was a little dizzy, so much so that she heard crying, and she came back to her senses, and saw that they had stopped at the door of a mansion. The door was hung with white curtains, as if it was a family that was going out of mourning .
