Fireworks soar into the sky in the darkness, only for that moment of brilliance to illuminate people's amazed faces, and then turn into blue smoke and fly away. Since it was not the time to set off fireworks, it seemed a bit lonely.
Fireworks are brilliant and last only for a moment, that's all.
Yu Xuanji took Sun'er's hand and stood in the courtyard to watch. After this night, it will be another year. After looking at it for a while, there were only a few bamboo shoots, which made me a little disappointed.
After a while, the sound of firecrackers began to sound, first in a few houses, and then throughout the city. Only this small Taoist temple was still quiet, as if there was no feeling at all.
"Bang bang bang" there was a knock on the door.
Yu Xuanji frowned, is there anyone here to tell fortunes at this time? But Sun'er clapped her little hands and said happily: "I know who it is." As she said that, she ran all the way to open the door.
A large number of New Year¡¯s goods blocked the door. Xu Xian stuck his head out from behind and smiled at Yu Xuanji.
Yu Xuanji didn¡¯t know why, but looking at Xu Xian¡¯s silly look, he wanted to laugh, so he laughed. At that moment, it was like a tree full of apricot blossoms falling.
The three of them sat together and made dumplings.
Yu Xuanji asked: "Don't you have to stay at home tonight?"
¡°Sister, my brother-in-law is with me, so it¡¯s unnecessary for me to stay here.¡± Xu Xian answered and took out another dumpling. Xu Xian would feel guilty if the two masters and apprentices were allowed to eat Yu Xuanji's big dish again in the New Year. I came over after having dinner early at home.
Sun'er picked up a fish-shaped dumpling and said, "Master, look, I made this." There was still flour on her face, and she looked cute and cute.
Yu Xuanji wiped the flour off her face and said, "Master, I'm here to help, too." With her joining the team, things went much faster. Although she didn't have much talent in cooking, she was a top-notch pastry chef.
Wrapping dumplings and telling jokes, Xu Xian teased Sun'er from time to time. Sun'er complained to the master aggrievedly, Yu Xuanji's apricot eyes widened, and Xu Xian immediately complained. This senior sister has recently drawn a lot of holding charms specifically to deal with herself.
A couplet was pasted on the bare door, but not the door god, because Yu Xuanji said that he could summon heavenly soldiers and generals of this level with just one talisman. In the end, Sun'er wrote the story and drew two door gods on the red paper, one was herself and the other was Xu Xian. Said to protect the master together.
Sun'er opened the red envelope given by Xu Xian and found only one tael of silver. She complained loudly that the master was too stingy, but the master was generous and gave him a tael of silver! As a result, Xu Xian snatched all her red envelopes while she wasn't paying attention, and was chased by Sun Er all over the courtyard.
When eating dumplings, Yu Xuanji accurately took out a dumpling from Xu Xian's bowl and gave it to Sun'er. Sure enough, there were coins wrapped in it! Xu Xian screamed loudly and must get back his penny. Of course I didn't give it to Sunshine, and she was very proud of it.
Most of the time, Xu Xian and Sun Er were fighting, while Yu Xuanji just watched quietly, feeling a faint warmth in his heart. But when Xu Xian said, "It's time for me to go back!", he felt a little reluctant to give up.
"If I don't go back to watch the New Year's Eve, my sister will chop me up. The firecrackers are ready. Sun'er is responsible for setting them off, but don't blow yourself up. I've cooked a lot of food. Just heat it up tomorrow." Xu Xian explained as he walked away. With.
Yu Xuanji just smiled lightly, but Sun'er looked reluctant to give up.
The door of the Taoist temple was closed behind him. Xu Xian turned around and saw that one side of the door was covered with bamboo shoots and the other was pressed against him. However, he had a pig nose on his face. Xu Xian shook his head and smiled.
It was getting late, and the snow reflected the white sky. Xu Xian took a deep breath of the cold air, which was refreshing. Just as he was about to walk back, the door behind him opened with a creak, and Sun Er trotted out and put a warm copper coin in Xu Xian's hand, "Thank you, Master, I'm so happy today!"
Xu Xian touched her face and said, "You're so good. Uncle Master will take you to see the lantern festival during the Lantern Festival, okay?"
Sun'er was a little unhappy and turned her face away, not letting Xu Xian touch her. When she heard that she could go to the lantern festival, she happily agreed. Xu Xian, the evil uncle, took the opportunity to indulge in some addictions, and Sun'er was very shy and fled back to the Taoist temple.
Xu Xian took out two "divine walking talismans" and stuck them on his legs. These were new talismans he had learned recently. Then he ran all the way home, faster than a galloping horse. He considered that if he lived in the world of martial arts, he could be called the "Shen Xing Tai Bao". However, even if there is a Liangshan Mountain in this world, it is impossible to climb it, otherwise it may become a "flooded Liangshan Mountain", and all the heroes may be drowned before the victory is achieved, and the great ambition of doing justice for heaven will have to be stillborn.
Facing the night wind, Xu Xian had random thoughts.
In Tingyue Tower, Hangzhou.
A very heroic man who looked to be no more than 28 or 20 years old raised his hands and said, "I only want to see Miss Caifeng once, and I have nothing else to ask for."
It was already late at night, and there were not many people in Tingyue Tower.After all, there are only a few customers who would visit prostitutes during the Chinese New Year. It's just that ordinary brothel girls have nowhere to go, so they just eat and sleep in this building, so they simply opened the door.
The madam yawned and glanced sideways at the man in front of him. He was dressed in ordinary clothes and had a dusty look on his face. He didn't look like he belonged to a wealthy family. It's just that his face is rough and bold, and extremely masculine. If she were twenty years younger, she would be rare for such a person. But now, she only recognized the yellow and white thing.
"You don't even know what time it is. It's just the first few days of the new year. Miss Caifeng has said she won't see any guests. Isn't Caifeng someone who can see Caifeng whenever she wants?" The disdain in his eyes was clearly revealed under the sleepiness.
A trace of anger flashed across the man's face. If he hadn't asked for help, how could he have been insulted like this? However, he had gone through many vicissitudes of life and knew the reason why the madam loved money. He took out a banknote from his pocket and gave it to the madam, "I'd like to ask my mother for an introduction. I'll give you some advice later."
The Madam¡¯s eyes were firmly attracted by the thin piece of paper, and she asked for a meeting. Such people are exactly what she is looking for now.
Hangzhou Fengyue Lane was not originally called Fengyue Lane. I don¡¯t know when, both sides were hung with smoke and moon signs, and later it was renamed Fengyue Lane. Popular girls may be able to find a place to live on this street, unlike ordinary prostitutes. Live in a brothel. However, it must also be managed by the Jiaofang Secretary, who also has some mothers and bustards to take care of the business. It's just that she looks calmer and more comfortable than ordinary brothel girls.
Even though we are here, we still have to celebrate the New Year. Both sides of Fengyue Lane are also decorated with lights and colorful decorations, no different from ordinary people's homes, maybe even more devoted. After all, there are only a few days of leisure all year round. Although the fine wines, delicacies, and red flowers and brocades on weekdays are good, you can only know the taste of them.
"Miss, it's really bullying to ask you to meet guests for the Chinese New Year. I'll go back to that old thing." Qingluan said and was about to walk out.
Caifeng hurriedly stopped her and said, "Although we're not afraid of her, we can't offend her. We're just meeting, it's okay, help me dress up!"
Qingluan had no choice but to agree. She knew that her young lady always had a point.
Caifeng dressed up, turned around the middle door, and went to see the uninvited guest. Entering the room, the waiting man's eyes immediately lit up and he stared at Caifeng. The old bustard next to him coughed slightly, and the man quickly stood up and said, "I, Chu Jianxiong, have met Miss Caifeng. If there is any offense, please don't blame her." He tried hard to appear polite, but he felt slightly nervous in his heart.
Caifeng smiled and returned the favor: "Cai Feng, thank you so much, Master Chu, for your kindness." Then she said to the old bustard, "Mom, you can go and have a rest. Qing Luan will be here to wait on you."
Chu Jianxiong was stunned again when he heard her voice. If compared with an oriole, it would seem contemptuous. The legendary phoenix call could not help but sound, and the words carried the grace of hundreds of birds coming to court. He couldn't help but laugh at himself, he actually knew how to compare.
Then Caifeng dealt with it calmly as usual. She had seen so many people like this, heard such words so many times, and there was nothing special about it.
So when Chu Jianxiong said, "I want to redeem myself for you, girl!", the expression on Caifeng's face was still light.
Chu Jianxiong couldn't help but be disappointed. He thought Caifeng would be surprised, or even if he wasn't surprised, he would still have some reaction, but with his martial arts, he couldn't detect anything that could be called an emotional change in the woman in front of him.
"The young master is very kind and loving, and Caifeng accepts it heartily. However, Caifeng is in Leji. If he wants to leave his country, he needs the permission of the prefect." This is both reality and evasion. Caifeng has seen countless people and has roughly figured out the true identity of the man in front of her. It seems that he has good kung fu and a lot of wealth. Judging from the demeanor of the description, he probably does not do a regular business. Such a person may have great authority in some places, but I am afraid that he will not be able to use it in an official family. What's going on?
The man suddenly stood up excitedly, "I passed by Hangzhou a few days ago. I couldn't forget the girl's beauty when I saw her, and that's why we met today. I'm not afraid of girls' jokes. I'm also a prodigal who wanders around the world. Now as long as the girl says something, I'm willing to take him with me." You can travel to the ends of the earth and never be controlled by anyone." But Caifeng was not moved by his words, and said, "I know Master Yun died unjustly. Mr. Chu is not talented, but he knows some martial arts, and he is willing to be a girl. Revenge.¡±
Caifeng, who had been listening quietly, changed his expression when he heard this and said, "Shut up." His chest rose and fell, showing that he was really angry. Then she restrained herself and said: "Master, please come back. Please don't say this again." The atmosphere in the hall became tense, and Qingluan almost couldn't help but take action, but she felt that Chu Jianxiong's martial arts was superior to hers. , fearing that if you fail to control him, it will arouse his ferocity.
"If he dares to hurt the lady, I will kill him even if I risk my life." Qingluan decided in his heart that he didn't have the feeling of a maid, but instead felt as awe-inspiring as a dagger unsheathed.
