The night is as thick as ink, dark, not see half a point of light; the streets are silent, the breeze blowing gently, falling fog can be heard.
Gradually, the silent street came a burst of footsteps, breaking the silence of the alleyway, and then see the light of the torch, and then a shaking can turn people to vomit four people carrying a large sedan chair slowly appeared!
Sitting in the sedan chair, Zhu Pingan has been unable to spit, the banquet that point of sh*t not to mention, home in the middle of the night also not to mention, Nima sedan chair sitting with the car like how is the situation! Who can explain to me! Could it be that I accidentally adjusted my hand into the car shock mode? If I hadn’t seen the calm outside, I would have thought it was an earthquake!
Carry the sedan chair man, you majestic, left and right shake the sedan chair shaking!
Tomorrow morning the temple test, you feast at noon until late at night; I live in the West Side, you feast in the East Side, a long way to lift a sedan chair is not only tuned into the car shock mode, but also dilly-dallying, the results of the road to take longer, wait until the time of the Marquis of Linhuai House, is already late at night about one o’clock.
Marquis Linhuai House in front of the door of the red lanterns bright red light, the door has several robust boy waiting. This side of the four people to carry the sedan chair just landed, these boys will rush to the sedan chair in front of the several men to carry the sedan chair did not have a good face, they are to see these people intentionally shaking the sedan chair, the aunt is still in the sedan chair it.
“Auntie, you can come back, Miss ordered us to wait here for a good half day.” After Zhu Pingan got out of the sedan chair, a familiar boy went up and spoke worriedly.
“I’m fine, I’ve kept you waiting.” Zhu Pingan got off the sedan chair and arched his hand in thanks, this boy Zhu Pingan had a few impressions, he was one of the people who followed Li Shu to the Marquis.
Watching Zhu Pingan get out of the sedan chair, a few sedan chair carriers said goodbye, then carried the empty sedan chair steadily back. The boys waiting outside the door entered the Marquis Mansion with Zhu Pingan, and after Zhu Pingan entered the guest room and confirmed that Zhu Pingan was fine, they each returned.
Zhu Pingan back to the guest room, the head is still some dizziness, mainly sitting in the sedan chair was caused by them upside down, thinking about today’s events. Can not help but silently greeted Yan Shifan’s family relatives, slightly washed his face, sat on a chair for a moment, ready to tomorrow’s examination will be things to put together.
Zhu Pingan sat on the chair. Before he could sit still, he saw someone coming outside with a lantern, and it was Li Shu, who was wearing a plush fox fur cloak, with a small maid, followed by two old maids, who came in.
The little bun maid was holding a big food box. There was also a set of neatly folded clothes on the food box.
“They forced you to drink again?”
Li Shu came in and looked at Zhu Pingan sitting on a chair rubbing his head, she thought that Zhu Pingan had been poured wine by the people from the Yan Mansion like last time, her pretty face turned scarlet from anger, her haughty voice tinged with worry.
Then without waiting for Zhu Pingan to answer, Li Shu ordered up the little bun maid holding the food box again, “Painting, quickly bring out the antidote soup.”
“No, the sedan chair ride was too bumpy on the way here, my head was shaken.” Zhu Pingan shook his head and smiled bitterly. Stopping the little bun maid who opened the food box.
“Why are you guys here?” Zhu Pingan got up and opened his mouth.
Upon hearing this, Li Shu rolled her eyes hard, pinching her waist with her slender jade hands, and snapped without any goodwill, “I came to see if a certain stinky toad has turned into a dried toad! Hmph, you think I love to come! You are my nominal son-in-law, sixth sister, they all know that you were invited to the banquet by that Yan Blind, so late to come back, if I do not come to see. If I don’t come to see them, they will be suspicious, I don’t want to be treated as heartless by them!”
Er
You think a lot!
Zhu Pingan looked at Li Shu, somewhat speechless. Girls, in fact, for Zhu Pingan. It had always been an unfamiliar territory. Back then, he, who was powerless, shy, and repeatedly ravaged on his employment path, had always been a single dog that was frantically exported when it came to Christmas, Valentine’s Day, and all sorts of festivals that could be pulled a little bit!
Girls are as deep as a heavenly book, it’s just a pity that Zhu Pingan failed to read a single page.
“What are you looking at, don’t flatter yourself, I’m not concerned about you! Just don’t want to be misunderstood! Those are clothes for you to wear tomorrow. You can’t wear the clothes for tomorrow’s temple examination, if you get laughed at, you’ll have to drag me down with you.”
Li Shu blankly glanced at Zhu Pingan, pouting her little mouth, her pink and tender little finger pointing at the clothes that were carried by the little bun maid, her voice arrogant.
“Thanks a lot.” Zhu Pingan arched his hand and thanked Li Shu, although Li Shu’s arrogant temper was as usual, but for the matter of the clothes, Zhu Pingan was still quite thankful.
“Who cares about your thanks.” Li Shu skimmed her small mouth, her small head rose forty-five degrees, but the corner of her mouth was hiding a shallow smile, a few micro disappearance, “Let’s go Painting, save disturbing a certain stinky toad’s sleep, and also lest someone who has a bad exam, blame it on our head.”
Said Li Shu will wring the willow waist, leading the buns little maid, with two old mums left Zhu Pingan’s guest room.
With the clothes sent by Li Shu, Zhu Pingan also returned the pen, ink, paper and inkstones and so on, then extinguished the candles and lay down on the bed to sleep with eyes closed.
However
When Zhu Pingan only just fell asleep, he suddenly heard deafening and earth-shattering firecrackers coming from the Duke of Wei’s Mansion next door!
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam bam bam ……
Waking up from a deep sleep, Zhu Pingan, listening to the sleepless, continuous and endless sound of firecrackers next door, embraced the quilt and rose up, and silently said inside his mouth, I bought a watch last year!
This is by no means an ordinary firecracker, at least it is a thicker and more loaded version of a firecracker! A ringing two-kick feeling, the general firecrackers will not even shake the windows are shaken!
At this time, Zhu Pingan was incredibly nostalgic for the modern day fireworks control!
Who dares to say that this has nothing to do with Yan Fu! Unfair competition tactics, it’s really nasty to do it thoroughly! Since this is the case, I’m still determined to snatch the first prize tomorrow!
If I am well, Ouyang, you, the spare tyre to old age!
When Zhu Pingan was sleepless, Yan Shifan returned to the Yan Mansion with four beautiful maids assisted by four beautiful maids, and casually asked after entering the door, how is Ouyang?
“Back to the master, Ouyang Gongzi ate dinner before dark, according to the master’s orders early lights out in bed, tomorrow’s temple test will certainly be the spirit of the gas tight.”
The subordinate’s answer made Yan Shi Fan nodded with satisfaction, then casually touched a hand on the right maid, laughed and said, today let you see the master’s power, and then disappeared in the night in a group of warbling and giggling sound.
The Duke of Wei’s house firecrackers rang all night, Linhuai Marquis House, someone went to ask, the Duke of Wei’s house said it was to give Xu San Gongzi Palace Examination to ward off evil spirits! It is said that the Duke of Wei’s house someone saw something unclean, in order to ward off evil spirits, deliberately set off firecrackers to get rid of!
However, some people saw Xu San Gongzi early after dinner, was carried by the sedan chair to go to the West Garden near the courtyard rest preparation!
In short, Zhu Pingan had a sleepless night! When he got dressed in the morning, his face was covered with thick dark circles under his eyes and he looked haggard!
“Auntie~~ Auntie~~ Miss told you to bring this with you.”
As Zhu Pingan left the Marquis’ residence early in the morning and embarked on his journey to the Temple Examination, the bun little maid pawed at her skirt and chased after him, shoving an exquisite pouch into Zhu Pingan’s hand.
Zhu Pingan opened it on the way, and inside lay a ginseng quietly, reed round and dense, body beautiful whip-beard, unknown age!
