The straight man who wears bright clothes is also afraid of messing with him

On the fifth day of October in the 25th year of Hongwu, everything was settled. Cui Miao, Shen Qing, Xue Lu and a group of ten people hurried on the road. Cui Miao and Shen Qing disguised themselves as wealthy businessmen who spent a lot of money, while Xue Lu and others became their guards. .

Everyone slowed down, Cui Miao twirled the sticky beard on his chin and said, "Brother, the front is the territory of Xi'an Prefecture, let's slow down to avoid arousing suspicion."

Shen Qing nodded, his eyes were full of smiles, every time he saw the mole on Cui Miao's nose, he wanted to laugh, it wasn't ugly, but a bit playful, coupled with the jewels on his body, he looked like a villager Nouveau riche.

Sun Hai joked with a smile: "Master, with your outfit, you are saying, 'I'm rich, come and grab me', which is too ostentatious."

Cui Miao touched the seven or eight rings on her hands, and said with an arrogant look: "You guys know nothing, sir, I have plenty of money, so I can wear it however I want, or I'll hire you guards to eat it." Cooking?"

Everyone laughed, and Lang Ping said in a low voice: "Master, where did you get all your jewels and jewels? I've been with you for so long, and I haven't seen you keep so many treasures?"

Cui Miao glanced at Shen Qing, and said angrily: "Master, I am sponsored, can you control me? I said you are so big or small, be careful, I will deduct your wages!"

Ma Qiang continued: "Speaking of wages, master, you are more dangerous by dressing up like this. Should we increase wages for the brothers so that we can have more money?"

"What does having money have to do with you guys? Do what you want, and get out if you don't! If you want to get a raise, there is no way!" Cui Miao called the stingy Tucai the leading role so vividly.

Shen Qing and Xue Lu watched from the side with smiles in their eyes, but when they inadvertently looked at each other, the corners of their mouths dropped again, and a look of defense flashed in their eyes.

Everyone chatted and laughed all the way, and entered the territory of Xi'an Prefecture. Because the autumn plowing had ended, there were few people living in the farmland, but it can be seen from the well-cared-for farmland that the people's livelihood here is good.The crowd didn't stop, they rushed all the way to Lantian County, and finally entered the territory of Lantian County before dark.Entering the county seat, I found an inn to live in.

After putting the things into the guest room and washing up briefly, everyone went downstairs to the lobby.Cui Miao boldly sat down on the main seat.He raised his voice and said: "Xiaoer, Xiaoer, didn't you see that the master I sat down, why don't you hurry up and serve him!"

"Come on!" Xiao Er hurried over and greeted warmly: "What do you guys like to eat?"

"Good wine and good food are served, sir, I am not short of money." Cui Miao pointed to the table next to her and said, "Forget about their two tables, as long as they are full."

Lang Ping said flatteringly: "Master, how can you say that the young ones are doing their best, but for a meal, you have a lot of money and you still care about this little money?"

Cui Miao raised her head high, and said like alms: "It's all right, you're the only one who can talk, but it's just a meal, sir, I'm in a good mood, so I'll reward you."

Lang Ping smiled cooperatively and said, "Then thank you, Master, Xiaoer, hurry up and serve us with good wine and good food."

Xiaoer agreed with a smile on his face, "You guys are welcome, the food and drink, come right away."

Cui Miao looked defiantly, scanning the situation in the lobby. There were not many people in the lobby, only three guests were eating, and each occupied a table. The appearance of the young master.

The three of them looked at Cui Miao and his party from time to time. When they looked at Cui Miao, they all looked like nouveau riche. The scholar was more upright, with contempt in their eyes.The businessman's eyes are more complicated, which is simply a standard demonstration of envy, jealousy and hatred.But Brother Young Master's eyes were a little more cunning, as if he was planning something.The eyes of the three people had a panoramic view, and Cui Miao couldn't help being secretly proud. It seemed that she played well with this appearance, unless it was a familiar person, she couldn't recognize who he was at all.

Cui Miao said with disgust: "Brother, I have been walking for a few days, and I haven't seen any interesting places in Xi'an Mansion. The women in this brothel are not as tender as the Jiangnan women, and all of them have rough skin. It hurts my hands. And the weather is so cold, the wind blows like a knife, my face is as dry as the bark of a tree."

Wang Cong couldn't hold it back, and sprayed all the water on Chen Hu's face, "cough cough cough", he said quickly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I choked on my saliva, I'll wipe it for you."

Chen Hu wiped the water off his face with his sleeve, and quickly stopped him: "Okay, I'll do it myself."

The others all bowed their heads, their faces flushed from holding back their laughter.

"Second brother, don't be in a hurry. We have just entered the Xi'an mansion. After the elder brother finishes talking about the business, let's let go and play." Shen Qing leaned against Cui Miao's ear and whispered: "How does Da Lang know that women in Jiangnan have soft skin? Tender? But have you been there?"

"It's okay, brother, you have agreed, and you can't go back on it." Cui Miao said in a low voice: "Since we met, you don't know where I have been, Lord Hou, you are asking, it is a bit inexplicable." .”

While talking, the food came to the table one after another, and Xiaoer introduced: "Eight treasure duck, sauced elbow, braised pork, spicy roast goose, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, Sixi meatballs, and homemade wine. You can try it. Guaranteed to drink it once, you will think about it all your life."

Cui Miao said with a smile: "You have a clever mouth. Master, I'm new here, and I don't know much about your Xi'an mansion. You can tell the master, what interesting places you have here, or anecdotes are fine."

Xiao Er looked at the shopkeeper standing behind the counter in embarrassment, Cui Miao said displeasedly: "Why, master, I eat and drink here, spend a lot of money, and you can't even say a few more words? Well, this Lantian County should be more than just your inn, the master will change the place!"

The shopkeeper quickly came over and said flatteringly: "Guest officers, gentlemen, Xiaoer is young and ignorant, so I will apologize to you all. It's time for dinner, and the back kitchen is a bit busy, so he is also afraid of delaying the guests." Meals. If you have any questions, just ask me, my grandparents all lived here, and there is no one I am not familiar with in a hundred miles around."

"It's better for the shopkeeper to see. Well, master, I'm tired after a day's driving, so let's rest here. Tell the master, what's so interesting about Lantian?"

The shopkeeper said with a smile: "Then it depends on what the guest wants to play. The most famous thing in our Lantian is jade, and Lantian jade is well-known far and wide. Good Lantian jade is a tribute. The largest jade shop here is Treasure Qingzhai, this Baoqingzhai is an imperial merchant who exclusively supplies blue field jade in the palace, if the two masters are interested, you might as well go and have a look tomorrow."

"Brother is interested in jade, but I'm not interested. The shopkeeper still tells me what anecdotes you have here. The more bizarre, the more interested I am. If you talk well, I will reward you, sir." Cui Miao He took out a silver coin from his purse and put it on the table.

The shopkeeper's eyes lit up, the silver was worth five taels, and these banquets were worth this money.

"However, there is a prerequisite. This matter must be true and cannot be fabricated."

Lang Ping stared at the silver on the table, and said: "Master, if you want to hear anecdotes, there are ready-made ones here, so how can you make them cheaper for outsiders?"

Cui Miao stared and said, "Don't coax me, boy! Could it be that you are still from Lantian County?"

"Although the young one is not from Lantian County, he also lived here for a while a few years ago."

"This guest officer has only lived here for a short time, so how can he compare to me who lived here with my ancestors? Let's put it this way, there is nothing that I don't know about what happened in Lantian County."

Cui Miao smiled contemptuously, and said, "Well, you two don't argue, just compare and see, whoever can speak to the heart of the master will win, and the ingot will be his."

Lang Ping quickly said: "The young ones will be the first to talk about. If you want to say that this girl from Lantian County is the most beautiful in Chunyilou, although it is not as tender as Jiangnan's, but it is better because of its good kung fu and energy!"

Cui Miao raised her eyebrows, suppressed the smile in her eyes, and said: "So, you kid did not spend money in Chunyi Building back then."

Lang Ping had indeed been in Lantian for a while, and he was the magistrate of Lantian County, so he knew something about this place, so the job of cooperating with Cui Miao fell on his shoulders.

Sun Hai jokingly said: "I said you old boy is always unable to do what you want when you go shopping. It turns out that when you were young, you were hollowed out by this girl from Lantian. Haha."

When Lang Ping heard this, he immediately became unhappy, and scolded with a smile: "You mother is not capable of doing what you want, I'm very fierce, those girls don't know how much they like me!"

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "This guest officer doesn't know something. The Chunyi Building was closed three years ago. Now the most famous brothel in Lantian County is Chunqingfang. The most beautiful girl in Chunqingfang is Chunliu. She used to be a rich lady, but later her family was convicted and sold into a brothel. This girl Chunliu is not only beautiful, but also proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, our rich family will spend a lot of money to see her!"

Cui Miao said with interest: "That's good, when it comes to the master, I have it in my heart."

Shen Qing's eyes darkened, and he grabbed Cui Miao's wrist calmly.Cui Miao was startled, and quickly withdrew her hand, but Shen Qing didn't stop her, but there was a warning in her eyes.Cui Miao was speechless and turned her eyes away from him.

The shopkeeper looked at the silver on the table and said, "Then this silver..."

"Don't worry, I still have it here!" Lang Ping said quickly: "Master, you are talking about anecdotes, such beautiful brothel girls can be found everywhere, so they are not anecdotes. What I want to tell next is what the master is really interested in. .”

"Oh? Then you should talk about it."

"If you want to say that the most bizarre thing in Lantian County is the family extermination case in the third year of Hongwu."

Cui Miao asked questioningly: "The third year of Hongwu? Were you in Lantian at that time?"

"It's not true, it's just heard. But it's all true, it's definitely not a fabrication."
