When Hua Mulan Met Zhu Yingtai

Before the arrival of the Shura field, the two got along very well.

Two liang of silver is spent, and the effect it brings is not bad.

The private room facing the street in No. [-] Dizi, with two taels of white wine and two dishes of side dishes, looks very good.But that's all. If you still want hard dishes, I'm sorry, you have to pay more.

Zhu Yingtai was dazzled when she heard the waiter in the shop say that a pot of boiled mutton plus three hot dishes would cost a tael of silver, and she vividly demonstrated the consequences of being the bookkeeper for so long.The consequences are nothing but stingy.

Seeing that the little master was in a hurry, Hua Mulan hurriedly held Zhu Yingtai's hand under the table, preventing Zhu Yingtai from leaving, while she took out a tael of trivial money from her waist and threw it on the table superior.

Changing from the calmness of the past, Hua Mulan's tone was extremely arrogant: "Go and buy a good table for the military master, and exchange the extra money for a plate of braised lamb. It must be a lamb that is less than a month old, and it will be so stuffy. Add another five biscuits."

"Come on, Lord Jun, just look at it." As a waiter in one of the few big restaurants in Mobei City, the waiter in the shop must have nothing to say in the eyes, and if you take a look with your eyes, you can tell that the man in front of you has paid twenty more money. Wen, and trivial money, are very convenient for you to operate in the dark.Although the person looks a little unfamiliar, but he is familiar with Yinzi, so if it is difficult to serve, please serve carefully, and immediately sang to the downstairs: "Dizi No. [-] private room boiled lamb, stuffed lamb, three dishes and one soup, hurry up Eh!"

The diners eating in the lobby were also in an uproar: "Hey, which grandson is so rich, he dares to sit upstairs on this day of killing customers."

"Let's say a few words less, can we meddle in this rich man's business? Look at Xiao Dezi's joy, maybe he got a lot of rewards."

After pouring wine for the two of them, the waiter also exited the private room. As soon as the door was closed, the hustle and bustle was blocked outside, and there was a moment of silence in the room.

Hua Mulan's food is quite good, a mouthful of wine and a mouthful of bad duck letter, not to mention how beautiful it is.

"Are these dishes not to Yingtai's taste?" Hua Mulan, who was warming up after taking a few sips of wine, took the time to ask.

Zhu Yingtai put down her chopsticks after only one bite and looked out the window: "No."

"Then eat some, there will be two hard dishes later, if you don't eat some padding first, you will slip your intestines tomorrow."

"I just can't figure it out, how come it costs more than two or three taels of silver to eat here, the money is enough..."

"It's enough for a month's military rations, right? Yingtai, don't think so, or I won't be able to eat today's meal." Hua Mulan also put down her chopsticks, and after thinking for a while, she said, "I'm so happy with you. You said it, the soldiers are all people who have today and no tomorrow, maybe at some point they will..." Hua Mulan shook her head, showing a smile that you know what I mean.

"After a winter, the gratitude of the farmers allows them to continue to plant crops and support their families this year. We soldiers have to thank God for the past winter, not to freeze our ears and arms, let alone harvest Take our lives."

"So today is a day for carnival in the whole city, and the soldiers can't stop drinking. Yingtai, did you see the two giant urns at the door when you entered? In fact, it was full of wine, no less than a thousand catties, and it was not until today. Those two huge urns will be completely empty. They are all poor men, and if they don't vent their anger a few times a year, there will be big troubles."

"So regardless of whether you are here, Yingtai, I will come here to have a meal and comfort the Wu Zang Temple. I didn't bring Zhou Xing and their big belly guys this time. It's just the two of us, and the cost is much less .”

Once she raised her intentions to the height of thanking the heavens, Zhu Yingtai didn't feel sorry for the money anymore, thinking that those soldiers who couldn't eat meat died on the battlefield just like that, and she also started to eat after she had done her ideological work. .Because maybe he will die on the battlefield at some point.

Seeing Zhu Yingtai move her chopsticks, Hua Mulan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she didn't say that she brought Qi Wu and they all ate in the lobby, and they all ordered cheap and meaty dishes, so seven or eight people After all, it was about the same as today's meal.And this time, as usual, she paid Qi Wu and the others money out of her own pocket to eat.Otherwise, she was sure that the little master would be very unhappy after eating this meal.

However, the problems in this are worthy of people's thinking. The young master was obviously born in a famous family, how can he be more picky than himself, a big soldier.

It seems that the money given is not enough at ordinary times, and it gave the little master a feeling that he is very poor. It seems that he will work hard to get promoted and increase his salary in the future.

"Here, boiled mutton!" A large pot of steaming boiled mutton was placed on the table amidst Xiaoer's yelling, and melodious music came from the street.

"Mulan, what's that?" The little master loves mutton as always, grabbed a piece of mutton from the pot, moved to Hua Mulan's side, and looked out the window.

For Zhu Yingtai, everything here is novel.

Looking at the lively team from far to near, Hua Mulan explained: "It's a Nuo opera, exorcising evil spirits and begging for good weather and bad warfare this year."

The hideous masks of Nuo opera are the same everywhere, but the colors of the masks are different, and Mobei, which has been in war for a long time, has its own characteristics.Compared with the Central Plains, the Nuo operas in the Northland used real guys, and Hua Mulan could tell that the saber in the leader's hand could really cut people in half.Under the exaggerated dance movements, there are actually formations and orders and prohibitions in the ranks.

Inside the door to see the door, the layman to watch the fun.Hua Mulan, who never liked singing and dancing, felt bored after seeing it through, and simply pulled out her hand to tear up the mutton for Zhu Yingtai, but Zhu Yingtai was delighted by the occasional somersaults of the dancers.The inertia of her body made her choose to accept Hua Mulan's feeding.

A sip of lamb, sorry, and no sip of wine.Zhu Yingtai's violent reaction after drinking made Hua Mulan dare not feed her a sip of wine.

When the Nuo opera was at its climax, the servants of the Duhu Mansion came out in a file and hung the [-]-point flying dragon palace lanterns all over the entire back door street.

"So lovely."

Hua Mulan noticed that Zhu Yingtai's eyes were full of light when she said these words.

"Yingtai, don't you go to the temple fair in the south?" Hua Mulan still remembers that when her father just came home, the family was relatively wealthy. There is a lot of abuse of sugar people.Compared with many children in the village, her childhood was very good.

"How can it be, every New Year, my mother will take me to Xuanyuan Temple to burn incense. What I saw and heard on the way is a hundred times more lively than Mobei City. It's just not as free as you, and you can run to the market. Watch these jugglers , buy these snacks."

"When you go out, there are servants like a cloud, and when you go in, there are crowds of people. There are always a large group of people I don't know at all, a large group of uncles from my family, and there are more than 30 children of my age. There can be three generations behind. My family also uses the "Book of Rites" to govern the family. There must be no missteps in etiquette, otherwise it will ruin the reputation of the family and make people laugh. So every year memorizing those names gives me a splitting headache. I don’t want to celebrate New Years again.”

"Is it so hard?" The little master said vaguely with a mouthful of meat, and Hua Mulan quickly fed Zhu Yingtai a sip of tea.

"What's more, my father and uncle's former disciples always come to celebrate the New Year, and let me listen while discussing my marriage."

The wrinkled face of the little master made Hua Mulan feel very distressed, and she stood up immediately after thinking about it: "Let's go, I will take you to play."

"The boring lamb hasn't been served yet." The little master who is addicted to eating is still thinking about the said delicious boring lamb.

"I asked them to pack it and send it back to the house. You can eat it when you go back. If you are so full now, you won't have the appetite to eat sugar later."

Between playing and eating, Zhu Yingtai chose to play first.

It's just that the beginning of the game was not very pleasant, because the two of them met Shen Lin, the eldest lady of the Protectorate's Mansion as soon as they went downstairs.
