[Baiyutang] Wind-dried clothes

Lu Caishu first sneaked back to Zhan Zhao's house, informed Ya Huan that she was out on errands and would not eat with Ding Meng and the others, then changed into a tattered outfit, wiped stove ashes on her face and hands, and quietly looked at Pang from the side door. from the government.

From a distance, one can see a long shed with curtains erected in front of Pang's mansion, people dressed as family servants coming in and out, and some people are holding spoons to distribute food for the refugees, showing a kind and benevolent air.Lu Caichun sneered slightly in her heart, turned her body and mixed into the refugees.Seeing that there was still such a long line ahead, she was worried, and tiptoed to the side door again, thinking that it would be better to find a master accountant and take herself in as a servant, Ya Huan or something.

As soon as she arrived at the door, she saw a young man in a smoky chestnut robe looking out of the door. He was only about fifteen or sixteen years old, but his face was filled with sullen disgust. You can see that he is stepping on the soap boots with golden thread and auspicious cloud patterns on his feet, and you can see that he is not an ordinary person at first sight.Behind him was a servant with arms folded, who was so frightened that he didn't even dare to lift his head.

Lu Caichun only heard that the young man seemed to have something in his mouth, and said in a daze, "Eldest brother is not in a hurry, and his ears are too old. If someone else can't listen like that, I would have put a pair of ears on my head long ago. Cut it off and feed it to the pigs. My second elder brother said it clearly and plainly, it’s a troubled time now, and I don’t know how to restrain myself, but I want to build a shed to save those starving ghosts! Can these starving ghosts save him in the end? ?”

Hearing this, Lu Caichun's doubts rose sharply, and he thought to himself: Listening to this man's words, Pang's family said that he should have given birth to three sons, this boy is young, and his other two brothers, one is to donate food to the victims of the disaster The eldest brother, the second brother who is not allowed to provide disaster relief, which one coaxed Bi Liu into the mansion?

Just as she was thinking about it, she heard the boy change his tone, and said with a giggle: "It's just that the tortoise surnamed Qian next to him is a wonderful person. Let him be fair and clean, and make him a kid. Usually, he has no place to poke a bird, so all these gossips come into being. I said earlier, my sister should reward him with a thousand maids, like Sima Yan, and give him a sheep cart Drag it to sleep with them, it's best to die in the bed and quilt of the couple."

After hearing this, the servant didn't dare to talk to him, but just said "here".

Lu Caichun was startled when she heard the words, and said to herself, maybe Bi Liu is among the "big girls with yellow flowers" that the young man said.

Seeing the boy was about to come out, Lu Caichun hurriedly dodged aside.The young man's eyes were sharp, and he immediately called her to stop, still uttering vaguely: "Wu that woman, did you hear that someone came into the mansion and made a fortune? Come here and wait for favor?"

Lu Caichun lowered his face to the ground, pretending to be weak, and said in a sad voice: "Master, I really have no place to make a living, I am dying of hunger, I hope the Lord can give me a place to eat, and I will carry water for cooking." He can cook and do laundry, but Wang Ye is pitiful."

The young man sneered: "I was so hungry that I looked at Kaifeng Mansion, didn't you see the captain's team? There are places to eat everywhere in Kaifeng Mansion's yamen." After speaking, his mouth seemed to spit aside. Looking west, he walked into the long shed, and yelled loudly: "Master, break up! Anyone who stays will be killed!" As soon as the words fell, he stepped forward and kicked the servant who was cooking porridge. the stove, the soup splashed and flowed all over the floor.Those refugees rushed up in a swarm, holding the porridge water on the ground with their hands mixed with the sand, and hurriedly poured it into their mouths.When the young man saw him, he jumped away, and then he burst out laughing.

Seeing this, Lu Caichun only regretted that she couldn't immediately take off the disguise and grab the young man to teach him a lesson.

Pang Mansion is still unable to enter.Lu Caichun failed at one plan, so she tried another plan, seeing that there was only a doorman guarding the side door, so she went up to it.As soon as the porter saw her frowning, he chased her away with "go and go".

But Lu Caichun found a piece of silver in his bosom, stuffed it into the sleeve of the concierge, and said with a smile: "Brother, it is said that people go to high places and water flows to low places. I really envy you that I can live in the Pang Mansion." Those who work here, I hope that elder brother will be accommodating to others, there are still many Kong Fang brothers here, all waiting to honor elder brother."

The concierge kept his silver sleeves in his sleeves, cast his gaze at random, and said, "I only let you in once, if you don't have that luck, don't blame me. Go in and look east, and you see a locust tree planted at the door, It is the residence of Mr. Accountant."

Finally entering Pang's mansion, Lu Caichun let out a long breath, looked around, and saw that the remote north gate was actually so rich and dignified.Regardless of the waist of the unadorned corridor and the high pecking eaves, there are more than dozens of species of Qionghua Yaocao that grow in the artificial rocks of Taihu Lake. Lu Caishi can count dozens of species.

She picked a path paved with colorful stones, cast it to the east, and repeated the same trick, luring the accountant to assign her a light job of serving tea and water, so she changed her outfit and wore a pine flower green She wore a bearded beanie, her lotus root was worn, her face was cleaned, and she was ordered to hold a box of pearl flowers and send them to the yard of the eldest son of the Pang family.

Walking in small steps in the corridor, I saw a row of parrots hanging under the eaves on the corridor, with bright red and emerald green wings and feathers, as if entering a rare bird garden, dazzling people.There were very few people in the hospital, and most of them probably went out to help the victims.Lu Caichun was not in a hurry to send Zhuhua to the place, but walked around the mansion slowly, memorizing the way by heart.

She turned left and right, and she didn't know where she went. She saw a pavilion raised high in the front flour wall, but it was unexpectedly incompatible with the luxurious and luxurious atmosphere of the Pang Mansion.Regardless of the lack of one fairy and ten beasts on the corner of the eaves, even the roof of the pavilion seems to have sunk into a big hole, and the swallow tiles are covered with withered vines and grass, so desolate that it seems to have flown from somewhere else. of a yard.

Lu Caichun was surprised, she opened the locked door a crack, and put her eyes on the crack to peek inside.As I was muttering in my heart, I suddenly felt that someone was following lightly behind me, so I hurriedly dropped my hands and turned my head to look back.

I saw a young woman with an upturned bun coming from a distance of one zhang. The phoenix hairpin was spouting beads, and the face was covered with yellow flowers, just like a pile of snowy apricot blossoms, Yiyi green bamboo, so noble and elegant that it is not like ordinary people.She held a tray with both hands, squatting teapots and cups on it, and stood under the wisteria shelf, raised her eyebrows and looked at Lu Caishu: "Where do you work, why did you wander here?"

Lu Caichun quickly replied: "I'm a newcomer, and I don't know the way. I was about to send pearls and flowers to the prince's courtyard, but I stumbled into this remote place by mistake."

The woman loosened her eyebrows and said, "Follow me. In case you get lost again."

Lu Caichun had no choice but to keep up with the woman.The woman's lotus steps moved lightly, her ring sang crisply, and the wind sent a burst of fragrance, which made people forget the customs.Lu Caichun approached her elegantly and kindly, and tentatively asked her: "I don't know my sister's name, but where does she work?"

The woman was about to answer her, but she heard a "dong" on the plate in her hand, but a grain of salted snowflake plum jumped in and flicked it twice.The woman sighed helplessly, turned her face to the courtyard outside the corridor, and said to the plum grove surrounded by thick shade: "Chan'er, don't make trouble."

Lu Caichun also followed her to look around, and saw another plum flying out from the shade of the plum tree, drawing an arc in the air, and jumping into the tray.Immediately afterwards, rustling sounds were heard in the shade of plum blossoms, and one hand pushed aside the dense branches and leaves, revealing a face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.Lu Caichun took a look, and quickly lowered her face - this man was the young man she met at the side door.

The young man was squatting between the branches, his clothes were pulled up to his knees, revealing his boots with golden thread patterns.There seemed to be a lot of plum meat stuffed in his mouth, and one cheek was also bulging.Seeing the woman, he looked at her and grinned, making people only worry that the plums in his mouth would roll out.The woman said: "Eat so many plums, I worry that I will lose my appetite and have tooth decay."

The young man said vaguely: "Sister-in-law has told you so many times, do you really expect me to listen to it, or is it just a routine?"

After listening to this compelling questioning, the woman's expression remained unchanged, she just shook her head and said: "As a sister-in-law, I can't persuade you to eat a few more pills?" Kicked over the porridge cooking stove outside the door?"

The young man was not ashamed, instead he smiled and said: "Is sister-in-law unhappy?"

The woman said: "Since he wants to save those disaster victims, let him save them. The mansion is not short of these grains. You don't have to make such a mess."

But the young man said: "Sister-in-law, have you never seen those starving ghosts snatching food? I like to watch it very much."

The woman ignored him, and only called Lu Caichun to continue walking.

Lu Caichun thought to himself, listening to the words of the two, this young son seems to be Pang Can, the youngest son of the Pang family, and this one in front of him should be the wife of the eldest son of the Pang family.Thinking of this, Lu Caichun secretly sighed, thinking that it is really embarrassing to have such a fairy-like lady marrying into this muddy Pang's mansion.

When it was delivered to the place, the woman stopped at the gate of the courtyard, and only ordered: "The eldest son's residence is inside, you just follow the road and look in, and there will naturally be someone to meet you."

Lu Caichun wondered, "Madam won't you go in?"

But the woman laughed and said, "Who do you think I am? You have to avoid it." After speaking, she turned and left.

Only then did Lu Caichun suddenly realize that she remembered that Pang Can had said that she had a second elder brother at that time, and she thought that this woman should be the second wife.But the second young master didn't sound like a good person, it was really unreasonable to stop the mansion from opening warehouses for disaster relief.In the end, it is such a fairy who has been wronged.

Entering the courtyard gate, bypassing the wall photo, looking into the courtyard and walking a few steps away, I saw a group of Yingyans in red and green laughing and rushing towards her, and the first one asked loudly : "Are you sending pearl flowers?"

Lu Caichun took two steps back in shock, but she was still surrounded by this group of women. She could only see hairpins and rings in front of her eyes, smelled rouge and powder in her nose, and heard soft words in her ears, and suddenly felt a little dizzy. Xuan, before he could hold the box in his hands, the cover of the box in his hand had already been snapped off, and the pearls were picked out one by one.Not only that, there are also women who take off the hairpins from their own buns, looking at the ones embedded in Lu Caichun's hair.Embedding was not enough, I had to break her face and ask all the sisters if they were pretty, which made everyone giggle.

Lu Caichun has followed Ouyang Chun these years, and has never seen so many beautiful girls rushing up together. He just feels like he has fallen into a fairy cave, wrapped in a cocoon by the beautiful silk vomited out by demons and monsters. They were all knocked open and sucked clean.

At this time, a man dressed as a servant came out of the room, stood firm on the steps, and said sharply: "What are you making a fuss about? Can you afford to disturb the young master?" Yan Dun fell silent, and scattered to both sides.When the woman who put the hairpin on Lu Caishu walked away, she also took off her jewelry from Lu Caishu's bun.

The servant glanced at the ground, saw Lu Caichun's demented appearance, and thought that this was an honest person, so he called her: "It's you, come in and talk about it."

Lu Caichun hurriedly returned the Yuanshen to its place, and lightly ruffles her pleated skirt to keep up with the servants.

The servant walked in front, turned around suddenly, winked at her with a smile and said: "I see you are strange, are you a young lady who just entered the mansion?"

Lu Caichun saw that he was not like a good person, and hated him in his heart, but he couldn't show it, so he lowered his head, pinched his throat and said in a timid voice, "Here."

The servant stretched out his hand to touch her face, but Lu Caishu's face turned slightly sideways, and his fingers clasped the box in his hand tightly.If the servant dared to act frivolously again, in an emergency, she would put the empty box in her hand on his head.

At this moment, someone in the house called softly: "Qian An, did you bring someone in?"

The servant hurriedly turned around, bowed to the door and said: "This is brought in by Lord Hou!"

Lu Caichun looked at Qian An secretly, thinking: Is this the ghost who coaxed Bi Liu into the mansion?

The servant didn't wipe the oil, and was angry in his heart. He looked back and took a look at Lu Caichun, and said in a low voice: "I still haven't followed!"Lu Caichun hurriedly followed behind him with his head bowed.

Bypassing the Jinping inlaid with gold and silver, what you see is another beautiful scenery.The first thing I saw was the blue silk curtains hanging down from the beams, the shadows were like phoenix-tailed bamboos under the moon; the second thing I saw was the genre paintings all over the wall, dotted with green and red; the third thing I saw was the righteous master. Pang Jiong, I saw him half lying in the black silk tent, and there was a small case on the couch, full of fruit cakes.But he was holding a book in his hand, but his face was flushed, his eyes were half closed, and he seemed to be dozing off.

Kneeling at his feet was a beautiful woman, who was beating his legs; a maid stood at the head of the bed, holding a tray with wine jugs and cups squatting on it.Look at this Pang Jiong, he must have drunk enough wine and fell asleep.

Seeing someone coming, the leg-thumping woman slowly stopped her beating hand, stood up with the edge of the couch, glanced at Lu Caishu, and softly told her: "You wait for Lord Hou to sleep, I have been serving her all these times , I'm very tired." As he spoke, he took the hand of the lady serving him, and the two of them looked out gracefully.
