[Baiyutang] Wind-dried clothes

Qian An pushed her from behind Lu Caichun, and reprimanded in a low voice: "What are you doing here with an empty box in your arms? Why don't you go up to serve Lord Hou?"

Lu Caichun hurriedly put the box aside, walked up it with small steps, and made a gesture to take out the book in Pang Jiong's hand.Unexpectedly, with a twitch, Pang Jiong's eyes opened.Lu Caichun was startled, and quickly stepped aside and stood with his hands down.When Pang Jiong opened his eyes, he saw Qian An. He was suddenly furious, raised his hand and overturned the small case on the couch, and the fruit and cakes on it were poured down in one go, like a rain of cakes and fruits.

Lu Caichun didn't know where his anger came from, so she lowered her head and stood aside silently.Qian An bent his knees and fell to his knees with a plop.

Pang Jiong said angrily: "You are a dog! How dare you appear in front of this Marquis!"

Qian An kowtowed non-stop, and replied: "Master Hou, don't be angry, I'm worried that you will lose your temper. Isn't the villain afraid that the idiots below will not serve your old man well, so he came in to have a look?"

Pang Jiong lifted his eyelids, caught a glimpse of Lu Caichun who was standing aside, stretched out his arm, and staggered Lu Caichun to him, shouting at Qian An, "Where did you kidnap this woman again?"

Lu Caichun's forearm hurt from being pulled by him, but he didn't dare to struggle, and just stood obediently with lowered eyebrows.Qian An raised his head and took a hasty look at Lu Caichun, and hurriedly complained: "Master Hou, this is not brought into the mansion by a villain... it is... a maid brought by the second lady, and has nothing to do with the villain!"

Pang Jiong asked suspiciously: "Mr. Mei?" He seemed to think of something, and grabbed Lu Caishu's hand and sniffed.Lu Caichun felt terrified of the warm breath on the palms and backs of his hands, but still did not dare to move rashly.Not knowing why, Pang Jiong let go of his hand, turned over, and lay down on the inside, throwing the scroll to one side, apparently very drunk.

Seeing that Pang Jiong seemed to be fast asleep, Qian An hurriedly got up, stared at Lu Caichun and said in a low voice, "Clean up the ground." At the end, he bluffed her again, "If you disturb Lord Hou Qingjue , I can’t spare you!” As he said, he leaned over and picked up two snacks, looked at the stuffed in his mouth randomly, then bowed his waist and sleeved his hands and left the room, closing the partition.

Lu Caichun picked up pastries all over the floor as he said, and from the corner of his eyes, he glanced at his sleeping heart on the couch and thought: "Listening to what the Marquis said, it was not his intention to kidnap Biliu into the mansion, but he was annoyed that the servant surnamed Qian took him away. Take him captive into the mansion—yes, the kid surnamed Pang said earlier that he was going to open a warehouse to help the disaster, so could this Lord Hou be a good person? I have to find a way to get some information out of him."

While picking it up, she suddenly smelled the sweet aroma of the pastry in her hand, making her index finger twitch.She brought the pastry close to her nose, opened it again and took a closer look, thinking, since it is the meal of Lord Hou, it must not be bad, no wonder Qian An grabbed two of them and ate them before leaving, why don't you learn how to do it, When Sister Ding's baby was born, it happened to be cooked for him.

Just as she was wandering, Lu Caishu felt a gust of hot air coming from her neck, she was so startled that she dropped the pastry in her hand, and hurriedly straightened up, but unexpectedly bumped into something on her back, causing an "Ai yo" behind her.Turning her face back to look, Lu Caichun couldn't help cursing in her heart, "It's a fucking thing"——I saw that Pang Jiong leaned halfway out of the tent, covered his nose, and was grunting, staring straight at her. .

"Want to eat?" Pang Jiong looked drunk, but still looked at her with interest.

Lu Caichun hurriedly threw away the pastry in her hand, and pretended to be terrified to answer him: "Don't dare."

"It's too much to eat if it's rolling on the ground." Pang Jiongnu pointed to the carved pineapple cabinet standing by the wall, and said, "There are some wine and food in it, you can fill some new ones."

Lu Caichun didn't know what his plan was, and said to adapt to the situation, so she followed his advice, went to the cabinet to pick up a plate of pastries and fruits, and sifted a jug of wine, walked up to him, and put it on the small case beside the couch.

Pang Jiong looked her up and asked, "Are you literate?"

Lu Caichun thought, did he ask me to read to him?If I say no, it's not as good as he wants, and I'm afraid I will be kicked out of this place.Although Lu Caichun followed Ouyang Chun all over the world, Ouyang Chun never let her teach her how to read and write, so she nodded her head at this time.

Pang Jiong stretched out his arm to hold her hand again, leading her to sit on the edge of the couch, arched his body, and rested his head on her lap.Lu Caichun couldn't help but wanted to push him away, but in the end she held back, gritted her teeth secretly, but pretended to be surprised and asked: "What is Hou Ye going to do?"

Pang Jiong groped on the couch, came across the scroll that was thrown aside earlier, held it, opened it casually, handed it to Lu Caichun, and ordered: "Take it."

Lu Caishu held the book as she said, and heard Pang Jiong say, "You read the first half of the sentence, and I will answer the second half. If I make a mistake, I will reward you with a piece of fruit; if I get it right, you will give me a sip of wine." .”

Lu Caichun looked down to see him drunk, and cursed secretly in his heart: "This dude knows how to play tricks." But his face was still unobtrusive, looking down at the text on the paper, he found that it was "The Analects of Confucius".She glanced at it casually, chose a sentence, and read out: "Zi Zhang asked, how can a scholar be so accomplished—"

After hearing this, Pang Jiong gave a low laugh and asked, "You want to eat that fruit so much?"

Lu Caichun thought he couldn't answer, but heard Pang Jiong read slowly: "The Master said: "Why, what do you call a master?" Zi Zhang said to him: "You must hear it when you are in the state, and you must hear it when you are at home." Da Ye. Fu Da Ye is straightforward and loves righteousness. He observes words and looks at color, and considers the following people. He must achieve in the state, and he must achieve in the family. Husbands who have heard of it are those who seek benevolence and act against them, and they do not doubt it. You must hear it when you are in the state, and you must hear it when you are at home." Lu Caichun looked at each word word by word, and there was no difference, and he stretched out his arms to pour wine for him, but he was thinking about how to pry his mouth open and put some tricks on Bi Liu. information.

Before Pang Jiong finished reading, he said angrily: "In the past, Zhao Zeping ruled the world with half of "The Analects of Confucius", but today I read more than half of "The Analects of Confucius"? I can't rule the world... How can a scholar be so accomplished—to assist others Mu, governing the world is Da!"

Lu Caichun thought to himself: Telling the truth after drinking, it turns out that this young master actually wants to be a high official.

Pang Jiong raised his head half a foot, his eyes slanted at Lu Caichun: "The wine hasn't been poured yet?"

Lu Caichun hurriedly brought the wine cup to Pang Jiong's mouth.Pang Jiong drank half of the wine, half of it dripped and spilled all over Lu Caichun's clothes, Lu Caichun wished he could wipe it off immediately.After drinking, Pang Jiong drunkenly said: "The Holy Majesty bestowed upon me the title of Marquis and the title of An Le... An Le An Le, this means that I can be content with the status quo, so that I can be content and always happy. But one cannot fulfill one's ambitions, How can there be contentment?"

At the end, he said again: "I hate my concubine second brother from the ground up, as if he is the smartest in the whole world, but it's a pity—" he snorted coldly, "but he's a cripple, after all, he can't compete with me Credit."

Lu Caichun listened to his ramblings with half of his heart, and the other half read "The Analects of Confucius" at a glance, looking for a sentence to knock on and ask about Bi Liu.

Pang Jiong was still talking to himself, with a rather frustrated tone: "If my sister hadn't entered the palace and became a favorite concubine, I wouldn't have been trapped in this beautiful cage... My grandfather, who became a grand master—— He is old, and when his grand teacher enjoys the rest of his life, I will ruin it!"

"The next sentence... what are you doing?" Pang Jiong suddenly stopped talking, and urged Lu Caishu to come.

Lu Caichun had no choice but to glance hurriedly, and read: "Ding Gong asked: the emperor envoys the ministers, and the ministers serve the emperor, how about it—"

Pang Jiong recited: "Confucius said to him: the emperor and the minister should be polite..." When he recited this point, he suddenly shut up.

Lu Caichun looked at the last sentence "The minister is loyal to the emperor", and thought to himself: This sentence is not difficult, why did he pause?

But Pang Jiong waved his hand and said, "I won't recite this sentence." After saying that, he added, "You can eat the fruit."

Lu Caichun stretched out his arm to get the fruit, but Pang Jiong was one step ahead of her, picked up a piece of Poria cocos cake, brought it to her mouth, and said, "You feed me wine, and I will feed you this cake too." Lu Caichun had to open his mouth and bite I didn't chew it carefully, only roughly crushed it, and quickly swallowed it.

"Next sentence." Pang Jiongfu urged her again.

Lu Caichun really didn't want the Marquis to feed herself pastries, so she chose a simple question: "Master: I'm not in your position——"

The next sentence should be "do not seek his own government", four simple words, somehow offended Pang Jiong.He raised his hand to open the scroll in Lu Caishu's hand, sat up abruptly, and asked her sharply, "Did the Mei family send you here?"

The scroll in Lu Caichun's hand fell to the ground, she thought: Why does this young master hate and fear the second wife Mei?He was drunk at this time and was unconscious. If I followed his words, I don't know how he would react.Thinking of this, Lu Caichun quietly stood up, sneered, and said, "That's right, it was the Second Madam who asked me to come and ask Lord Hou..."

Pang Jiong stared at Lu Caichun, and then asked, "What does she want you to ask?"

"Ask Miss Bi Liu where she is now." Lu Caichun finally asked the question, only waiting for Pang Jiong to answer.

"Bi Liu?" Pang Jiong held his forehead, as if he had drunk too much and felt sick, he shook his head and asked, "Who is Bi Liu?"

Lu Caichun had no choice but to remind him: "It was Qian An who picked Bi Liu from the refugees..." Although she roughly knew Bi Liu's appearance, she thought that the Hou Ye was surrounded by fat, swallows and thin, so he might not be able to remember Bi Liu's face. It was Qian An who brought it in, so he shut up.

Pang Jiong thought for a while, his eyes lit up for a moment, but he asked Lu Caishu back, "Why does Mrs. Mei want you to ask her?"

Lu Caichun gave a reason casually: "Second Madam and Miss Bi Liu hit it off right away, and they loved her very much, and wanted to ask the Hou Ye for her, but for some reason, they couldn't find anyone, so they ordered me to come and ask the Hou Ye. "

Pang Jiong suddenly jumped up, pointed at Lu Caichun and shouted: "So it is!"

Lu Caishu didn't know why he looked crazy, and took a step back in shock, but she heard Pang Jiong say, "I said, how can that Biliu have the fragrance of phoenix on his body! Who in the whole Pang Mansion doesn't know that when I smell the fragrance of phoenix, I will feel dizzy! Only Namei dares to use it!"

When Lu Caichun heard this, her heart skipped a beat, and she thought: Bi Liu, who is serving the young master, brought the unused incense, there must be something strange about it, could it be that someone in Pang's mansion deliberately framed Bi Liu?She didn't want to guess that the second wife, Mrs. Mei, used this trick, but said that someone with ulterior motives stole the incense used by Mrs. Mei, wanting to kill two birds with one stone, and trap the two of them in an unjust place.

Just as she was thinking about it, Pang Jiong suddenly came to his senses. He frowned and shouted: "No! You were not sent by the Mei family!"

"If you were sent by that woman to ask me, why did you ask at this time?" Pang Jiong widened his eyes, only staring at her, and asked questions like cannonballs. "Besides, I just want a maid. It's a trivial matter that the housekeeper of Cangtou will take care of, why did you ask me?"

"Who the hell are you?" Pang Jiong stepped forward and was about to capture Lu Caishu.

Lu Caichun expected that she could only deceive him for a while, seeing him rushing, she hurriedly dodged to one side, trying to escape through the window.Seeing her agility, Pang Jiong couldn't catch her, so he opened his mouth to call someone in to stop her.Lu Caichun heard him call out: "Come here..." He was afraid that he would invite people in and make a fuss, and he would not be able to find Biliu's trace again, so he looked at Pang Jiong and threw his fingers away. Like an iron cage, it pressed down on Pang Jiong's face.

Unexpectedly, Pang Jiong was seven feet long, but he looked like a person made of dough, this time Lu Caishu managed to crush him to the ground.Lu Caichun covered his mouth with one hand, and hit his Jianjing point with two fingers of the other hand.Pang Jiong's two arms were bitten like ten thousand ants, unable to move, he could not help but cry out in pain.

Lu Caichun knelt down on one knee, and put the other knee against Pang Jiongtan's acupoint, threatening him in a low voice: "If you dare to shout again, I will lose both your legs and hands!"

When Pang Jiong questioned her just now, he was only half sober from the wine. After this ups and downs, even the fainted people have to wake up.He stared at Lu Caichun, even though his mouth was covered, he asked vaguely, "Who are you?"

"Ask who am I? I'm your aunt!" Lu Caichun remembered that he ordered him to pour wine and urged him to study before, and couldn't help but feel angry. Now seeing him being restrained by him, he wanted to ask such a dude Words are better than fists.

She took out a silk rain needle from her waist, and waved it twice before Pang Jiong's eyes.Pang Jiong's eyes followed the faintly glowing ruler-long silver needle in her hand.Seeing the fear on his face, Lu Caichun took the opportunity to say, "I'll ask you a question, and you answer honestly. Otherwise, you'll have something to eat!"

Seeing that Pang Jiong was silent, Lu Caishu asked, "Do you know where Bi Liu is?"

After loosening his hand covering his mouth, Pang Jiong didn't speak for a while.Lu Caichun sneered, and said: "It seems that I have shown mercy just now!" Saying this, the silver needle pressed against Pang Jionghuan's Tiao acupoint.

But Pang Jiong said: "What do you want me to answer if I don't know?"

"You really don't know?"

Pang Jiong shook his head.

Lu Caichun reprimanded: "Didn't you say that she has a smoky fragrance on her body, which made you dizzy? How did you deal with her?"

Pang Jiong said: "It was Qian An who took her down. She was just an insignificant servant girl. How would I know where she is going?"

Lu Caichun suddenly thought of Qian An's rogue-headed appearance, and secretly cried out in his heart.Qian Anmei bullied her, Bi Liu made a mistake and fell into his hands, how could she be considerate?Thinking up to this point, she glanced at Pang Jiong who was pressed to the ground, and without mercy, raised her hand to pierce the silver needle into his shoulder blade.Pang Jiong waited to call again, but unexpectedly the medicine on the needle volatilized and spread all over his body in an instant, making him pass out.

Lu Caichun patted her dress, stood up, and thought: Songjiang tried the silk rain needle for the first time, and the time for fainting from the medicine was not long enough, so he made a new prescription to increase the effect of the medicine. Now Pang Jiong will not wake up for a while, and he Taking advantage of this moment, he just caught Qian An and forced him to ask Bi Liu's whereabouts.She dragged Pang Jiong onto the couch, threw him into the blue silk tent, clapped her hands, walked to the window, opened the window, and jumped out.
