Brother Donggong

I scratch my hair.

Actually, I didn't expect to get back 20 taels from Cui Bicheng today, but I can't just take 4000 taels back.

I took the Yongjia purple sand pot next to Cui Bi Chengzang, and poured it to my mouth. It was too late for him to raise his hand to stop me!

I chattered with him for a long time, and my mouth was already parched.

After I finished drinking, I smashed my mouth and sighed, "This tea is not bad, but the taste is a bit bland, but the water temperature is just right, and it quenches my thirst."

"The cow chews the peony, the cow chews the peony!"

Cui Bicheng yelled in grief, his fingers trembling.

I put down his teapot slowly, and said with a smile, "Don't tell me, other cows may not like to eat your peony."

My cousin lifted the lid of the small hand pot with distress, seeing that there was no drop of tea left in it, he could almost cry, even the way I looked at him felt a little guilty.

At this time, my aunt came over and said something that could relieve the sorrows of the ages - dinner is ready!

My grandpa’s rice is cooked separately. He has bad teeth and can’t chew the meat. My aunt asked someone to make noodles for him. Minced the meat and put it on the bowl and then poured broth. A huge bowl, squatting outside the gate of the yard and eating with a group of old men squatting at the door of each house to eat.

My aunt thought she was a woman, and she didn't eat at the table, so she put the stewed vegetables on two big plates, put them on the Eight Immortals table, and put them in the main hall, and asked my cousin to accompany me to eat.

I was out of breath all day, tired and hungry, and my dinner was extremely sweet.

My cousin is handsome, and he is also handsome when he eats.He can even eat coarse vegetables stewed in a big pot in a slow and steady manner, just like the old man Du Hao was lecturing on the scriptures in the Imperial College or Yuzheng Palace.

My cousin, just like my Huang Ying, has learned the style of old man Du's Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs!

My cousin Cui Bicheng and old man Du's grandson Du Yuchan were classmates, and they studied together when they were young.Speaking of which, Du Yuchan was willing to give me his grandfather's yellow oriole, and she did it for my cousin's sake.Otherwise, why would a kid from the wealthy Jiangzuo clan like Du Yuchan take me seriously?

It is said that old man Du seemed to love my cousin very much.When old man Du knew that my cousin was ignorant and gave up his studies to start a business, his heartbroken look was just like when I took Cui Bicheng's twelve taels of gold and one tael of Fenghuang Danzong tea to sell a big bowl of tea outside the main gate, Cui Bicheng looked at it. The eyes are exactly the same when drinking his tea!

"Your Majesty is okay in the palace."

Cui Bicheng had just swallowed a mouthful of fish when he suddenly looked at me with a bowl in his hand.

"Who?"

I was stunned, and I didn't even realize who he was talking about.

He said again, "Miss Beauty."

I'm still confused.

He couldn't take it anymore, he gave me a blank look before saying, "Your mother."

"Oh, she. She's doing well!"

"Is the lady still embroidering things by herself recently?"

I am in a desperate struggle with a piece of goose head, I must bite him into walnut powder in the prince's mouth!Hearing what he said, I said vaguely, "She can embroider? Why didn't I know? Could it be that my mother learned it without telling me?"

"Why does the prince say that about the beautiful lady? The lady's craftsmanship is very good. Last time she gave me a handkerchief. I think the embroidery is really... Clear water comes out of hibiscus, so it's natural to carve."

I didn't answer the question and continued to eat my goose head.

in vain!

You keep breaking!

"My lord, when will you tell your empress to give me another piece?"

I also imitated his appearance, slowly put the goose head in the plate, and then slowly wiped my oily hands with his sleeve, he endured it.

I picked up his teacup to drink tea again...

Lion Peak Longjing.

I heard the sound of his teeth grinding.

I suddenly said, "2 taels!"

"what?"

I shook my fingers in front of him, and he saw that my fingers were almost matching eyes, "2 taels of silver notes!"

He gave me a blank look, "Now a piece of brocade is only eight taels of silver, and the empress's embroidered handkerchief is only 20 taels, no matter how delicate it is. My lord, you are talking about 2 taels, isn't it too loose?"

"Exquisite?!—"

I opened my mouth, and the tea, meat residue and pancake crumbs in my mouth were all sprayed on the ground, and I laughed so hard that I couldn't breathe.

"I said brother, you are my own brother! Is the beauty you mentioned in the palace the same person as I am talking about? Can my mother's embroidery be exquisite? When I was young, we were ignored, not even the palace maids and eunuchs." Staying in front of my mother, my mother does all the work by herself, but the work is rough. At that time, the pants I broke when I climbed a tree, she could mend one hole into three holes. With her little skill, her Embroidery is not sure what grandpa and grandma look like? Do you think her things can be exquisite?"

He looked at me coldly, and then said slowly, "Since the prince says it's not exquisite, it's not worth twenty thousand silver."

"My mother's embroidery is not worth that much! But brother, if you want it, it's worth that much!"

He stopped talking.

I tapped my fingers on the table, and then I leaned against the back of the chair, Erlang's legs turned up, "Brother, let's not talk about how many looms, how many mulberry fields, and how many silk and satin houses you have. Silk masters are all under your command, what good material have you never seen? Your robe..."

I was still holding his sleeve while I was talking, but he glared at me, this guy has a clean freak, he took one look at me and pulled his sleeve back, because he asked me to wipe my oily hands on his sleeve In terms of love, I didn't bother with him.

"Brother, your robe looks like coarse cloth, it's soft and cool, it doesn't stick to your body, and the market price is even more expensive than silk!"

"Based on your knowledge, can you see what my mother embroiders?"

He still doesn't speak.

I looked at him, "Brother, do you need me to continue? The veil that my mother wiped your mouth happened to be cut from under the cover of my father's Buddhist scriptures. What you want is not my mother." The picture of chickens eating rice embroidered on it is the whole piece of silk tapestry whose secret method has been lost in the legend."

"How about brother? Let me go out with 2 taels this time, and I'll cut another piece for you to wipe your mouth."

"Why, I think 2 taels is too expensive."

Cui Bicheng added some hot water for me, and he said, "It's not too expensive."

"Oh, that's right."

"My lord, why don't you ask me for 20 taels at once? Isn't it easy to go to the prince's side?"

I drank Longjing for another night and sighed comfortably, "I want it, so you have to give it too."

"That's true. If you want me to pay 20 taels, I will definitely not give it."

I nodded, "This is the end."

I looked at the weather outside, the clouds were overwhelming, and the mountains and rain were about to come.

I was full, patted my stomach, yawned and said, "Cousin, I won't be going back to Yongjing tonight, it looks like it's raining, find me a room that doesn't leak."

He looked at me, "5000 taels, you sleep in my room."

"Eighteen thousand, I'll sleep on your bed."

Cui Bicheng gritted his teeth, "Fifteen thousand and five, I'll give you the quilt."

"6000 taels, absolutely no more! You have to let me justify it in front of the prince! In addition, you give me another two catties of Longjing!"

Cui Bicheng summed up, closed his eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Success! Sixteen thousand is ten thousand!"

When I heard this, I stretched my waist and said with a smile, "Wow, I haven't touched the bed since I was kicked out of Yuxi Palace last night, and I can finally sleep. Your quilt is made of good material and comfortable to cover. Said that my palace can be tidied up, and I will ask you to get some bedding."

"It's good to come out, live a comfortable life outside." Cui Bicheng was finally able to say something human, "The family of the provincial government is worried about following your mother and son. But...the pass at the East Palace is not so easy...you Understand?"

I didn't speak, just leaned on the chair and looked at the roof. The beams were very strong, and the rain was pouring down, crackling.
