[Red House + Space] Falling Spring

Luo Chun didn't know that she was not in the mansion, and there was such a disturbance in the Ning mansion, but it didn't matter even if she was in the mansion, she didn't have much sense of belonging to the Rong mansion, let alone the Ning mansion.At this moment, she was walking leisurely on the street, and stopped when she passed a jewelry stall, and was attracted by a red coral butterfly hairpin on the stall.

In fact, the coral of this hairpin is obviously inlaid with broken coral, and the color seems to be suspected of being dyed, but I have to say that this hairpin is very exquisite and cute.Luo Chun held it in his hand and looked at it again and again, admiring the superb craftsmanship of the hairpin maker in his heart. Except that the materials used were not comparable to those used in Jia's mansion, the craftsmanship was not inferior to the craftsmen in the mansion. All the flaws were not hidden in the inlays. Under the silver tray, flaws are cleverly used to turn waste into treasure. For example, a cat's eye is carved from a black spot on coral, and there are patterns on butterfly wings.

The stall owner saw that Luochun couldn't put it down, looked at Luochun carefully, and said with a smile: "Girl, did you like this hairpin?" He gave a thumbs up, "Girl has really good eyesight, she fell in love with me right away. The best thing on the stall, the hairpin in the girl's hand is the handicraft of a famous master in Beijing..." Just as the stall owner was bragging about the cat-playing butterfly hairpin in Luo Chun's hand, Luo Chun squeezed a A boy of thirteen or fourteen years old dressed in ordinary clothes, the stall owner couldn't help shrinking his pupils when he saw that boy, paused in his mouth, and subconsciously looked at Luochun.

Luo Chun didn't notice this, but when the young man squeezed over, he thought that there were many people parked in front of the stall, so he moved a little to the side, thinking of making room for others, but he didn't expect the young man to follow Luo Chun's approach. Move also followed, and Luochun couldn't help but glance at him, the boy looked very ordinary, and he couldn't find it if he was thrown in the crowd.

"How much does this cost?" Luo Chun interrupted the bragging of the stall owner and asked the price directly.The owner of the stall who was frothy and blowing this cat opera butterfly hairpin almost into the sky and the earth was stunned by Luochun's question, and immediately reacted, stretched out two fingers in front of Luochun's eyes, and said with a smile on his face: "It's not expensive. Since the girl sincerely wanted it, I didn't make a false report. I gave the real price, two taels of silver."

Although Luochun knew that 20 taels of silver was enough for the farmer's family to live for a year when Grandma Liu came to the house to play the autumn wind, but because she had been living in a boudoir all the time, even if she used the money, it would be the embroidery, yarn weaving and Guan Nu in her house. Mammy, she really doesn't have a deep understanding of the prices of this era.If it was Luochun who just got off the carriage, she might have been intimidated by the stall owner, but after shopping for so long, although she didn't buy anything, when she came across a stall she was interested in, even if she didn't ask directly Prices, but when I stopped by the side, I saw their sales and purchases, and I probably had a little idea of ​​the prices of items on this street.Of course, if the hairpin is really the craftsmanship of a famous master craftsman as the stall owner said, even if the material is almost worth it, but that is impossible, because the stall owner really has the ability to get the jewelry made by the master, and he will not He set up a stall on the street, obviously he took Luo Chun as a victim and slaughtered him.

Luochun shook his head and said, "It's too expensive, can it be cheaper?" The stall owner said with a smile: "It's only two taels of silver, how expensive is it? Girl, there is a saying that 'money can't buy a good heart', you see Look at this hairpin, apart from the slightly inferior material, there is nothing wrong with it..." No matter how Luochun bargained for the price, the stall owner insisted on the price of "two taels".Meeting his sly eyes, Luochun suddenly realized that she should have exposed her flaws, and he saw through that she was not a girl from a small family.But as the stall owner said, "It's hard to buy a good heart with money", who made her like this hairpin from the bottom of her heart? Luochun sighed helplessly, took out her purse from her bosom and took out a five-liang ingot clip She handed half of the purse to the stall owner, and just as she was about to put away the purse, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side and snatched the purse from her hand.

When Luochun realized it, her hand was empty, and the boy who was crowded with her had disappeared.Luo Chun looked at the empty hands, then at the young man running away, subconsciously chased him, pointed at his back and shouted loudly: "Catch the thief, catch the thief!" But it's a pity , there was no brave person who followed Luochun's cry on the market, everyone just looked at it curiously, and then continued to do what they should do indifferently. It's fun to watch.

As a lady of the family, Luochun's body is outstanding among the many girls in Jia's mansion, but compared to the boy who snatched her purse, she is a waste, panting after running for a while.That boy is obviously a local snake, he is very familiar with the ground, seeing his familiar twists and turns around the street, Luo Chun, who is not familiar with the terrain, has great difficulty chasing him.Luochun chased to a poor alley, and there was a fork in the road in front of him. He looked left and right, but he didn't see anyone. He was hesitating whether to continue chasing, and if so, which direction to chase. It opened with a squeak, and out came a handsome young man with a sword at his waist. This is a kind of heroic handsomeness of a man, different from Baoyu's plump beauty, and Jia Lian's frivolous handsomeness. .He was dressed in a solid sapphire blue shirt with a jade-colored palace sash around his waist. The two colors were intertwined, making him even more handsome and radiant.

Just when Luochun wondered how such a shabby and dilapidated place could come out of such a misfit, the man opposite was surprised when he saw Luochun, a very obvious intruder.Luo Chun's facial features are exquisite and dignified, the most eye-catching is her pair of eyes, with such a pair of eyes, no one will care even if the other facial features are mediocre.A head of black silk is more than twice as thick as that of ordinary people, and it is uncluttered with a pair of ivory combs, and a deer's ganoderma silver hairpin inlaid with white pearls. The skin is as white and delicate as the white porcelain of an official kiln.A pair of pearl earrings, although the pearls are not too big, but they are round and flawless; the lake green heavy satin wide-sleeved gown, the moon white full embroidered fairy skirt, the light dress makes the whole person stand out in the sun As if carved from white jade.

Originally, I didn't see anyone when I was chasing them. After such a delay, I still don't know where he went. The sad truth, she was lost.In desperation, she trotted to catch up with the young man who had already walked away, and shouted: "My lord, my lord, I'm sorry, can I ask you for a favor?"

Hearing the shout, the young man stopped, looked at Luochun, pointed at himself, a little puzzled, a little puzzled, and asked in surprise: "Did you call me just now?" Luochun nodded and said: " Yes. This is my first time here. Just now I was chasing a thief. I lost him. I can’t find my way back. I don’t know if you can take me out. ? The little girl thanked you in advance." He said with a smile and saluted the young man.

After listening to Luochun's explanation, the young man didn't speak, but stared at her for a while, and saw that although Luochun pretended to be calm on the face, his heart was a little hairy, wondering if there was something wrong with him Then he said, "I don't know where the girl wants me to lead you?"

"Rong..." Luochun opened his mouth and was about to announce the name of Rongguo Mansion, when he suddenly remembered that his identity should not be revealed, but other than the obvious places like Rongguo Mansion, the place he was familiar with, the person in front of him might not know, so he thought about it and changed his mouth Said: "Just send it to Ningrong Street."

"Ning Rong Street?" The young man repeated it, gave Luo Chun a strange look, and asked, "I don't know what is the relationship between the girl and the Rong and Ning houses?" Hearing the young man's question, Luo Chun had a question in his heart , Could it be that the man in front of me has something to do with Rongning and the two mansions, and he immediately denied it in his heart. As far as the man's virtue in the mansion is concerned, he is obviously not the same as the man in front of him, because it is difficult to reveal his true identity. But Luochun didn't want to lie to the young man in front of him, so he said vaguely: "My family members are in Rongguo Mansion." The young man said "Oh", without saying anything, and led the way ahead.

On the way, neither of them spoke and kept silent. Luochun felt that the atmosphere was very awkward, so he searched his brains to find some topics to break the silence.It’s just that she wasn’t good at this, so she didn’t know what to say after thinking about it for a long time, and then she finally remembered something, and she said how she fell in love with a cat opera Diechai when she was shopping, but the stall owner refused to lower the price. After coming out, he also told about the fact that he was robbed of his purse by the thief, and then said very puzzled: "I don't understand, I'm just the daughter of an ordinary small family, how could I be robbed by others?" Are you watching?"

"An ordinary daughter from a small family?" The young man glanced at Luochun, his eyes lingering on Luochun's embroidered skirt for a while, and then said: "Maybe the girl thinks she is dressed in a simple and low-key manner, but she does not I know that in the eyes of those of us who often walk in the market, there are flaws everywhere. Not to mention that the daughters of small families cannot afford to wear embroidered skirts full of embroidery, even if they can afford them, they are reluctant to wear them every day like a girl. Second, although the girl’s jewelry looks simple and not fancy, it should be made of ivory. Our country’s ivory production is scarce, and most of them are tributes, so it is absolutely impossible to use ivory as jewelry. Maybe it's from a small family, or from a girl..."

"Okay, there's no need to continue, I understand." Luo Chun was embarrassed by the young man so much, and hurriedly interrupted him, not letting him continue.Originally thought that she was dressing up very well, but in fact she was very bad. Luo Chun finally understood the reason why she was being targeted.
