Chapter 95: Pine Smoke Washing the New Urn

When the old man returned to Lao Bizhai, Linsui Qiqi, Sangsang was still squatting in front of the stove, looking at the burning firewood with his brows, and focused on the magical techniques he had learned in daily life.

"Let's have a meal." said the old man.

Sangsang had been in a daze before, but he didn't notice that the old man had left for a while. He was stunned and stood up. Looking at the edge of the old man's wet with snow, he vaguely understood something, and the corners of his lips slowly raised and he smiled.

The old man also smiled and sat next to the table.

Sangsang didn't ask him what he had done after leaving Lao Bizhai, but served him a bowl of rice, then heated the yellow croaker, picked up the most plump rice pile in his bowl, and poured a spoonful of delicious steaming soup.

"What dish did Aunt Wu make at noon?"

"Garlic and oily vegetables."

Sangsang asked, “Is it delicious?,.

The old man replied: "It's still good...but I don't understand why Ru Qing puts salted fish in the vegetables."

Sangsang raised his head and asked in confusion: "Why should I put salted fish?"

The old man was puzzled and looked at her little face and said, "But you put it in the last time you cooked oilseed."

Sangsang lowered his head and said, "When the young master was cooking oil and maize, he didn't even have garlic."

The old man was stunned and sighed with emotion: "Well, I remember..." The vegetables I ate in the Taoist temple were hard to see even oil, and I don't know what happened. When I was old, I was a little greedy for these external enjoyments."

"Young Master said this is called "Freshness to Extravagance" and "Freshness to Extravagance to Difficulty, everyone is the same... Teacher, don't blame yourself."

Sangsang comforted him.

As soon as the next day was dawn, the old man got up, carefully folded the quilt on the table, put it back into the corner behind the shelf, then pushed open the door of the old Bizhai shop, looked at the morning light in the distance, and narrowed his eyes.

Last night, Sangsang reposted Ning Que's sentence "It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it's difficult to go from extravagance to frugality..." Inexplicably touched him... He found that he was a little too greedy for life and life in Lao Bizhai, and even forgot to find the shadow of the night.

I still had sour and sour noodles soup in the morning. When the old man was about to carve a bowl after eating, Sangsang signaled her to come and let the old man rest. The old man smiled and said that he was going to go out for a walk today and might not come back for lunch.

"It's good to go out and stroll... It's not a big deal to stay at home all day."

Sangsang thought for a while, took out a piece of silver from his belt and handed it to him, and told him, "If you are tired of shopping, you can sit in the tea shop. Don't be reluctant to leave money, but don't go too far. If you can't remember the road, don't be embarrassed to ask people. The people in Chang'an City are very enthusiastic... It's really not possible. Just find a gambling house to report the name of Master Qi, and someone will send you back."

The old man was afraid of the nagging of the girl, so he took the broken silver and put it in his arms carefully. Lianlian was probably out of the door.

Leaving Linfoss Alley... He went north, passed the palace from the East City and left the Xuanwu Gate and left Chang'an City, and came to a small hill covered with winter snow in the north of the city. Climbing up and looking far away... Naturally, he could see the far distance. The old man looked to the north in silence, and saw that the morning star was dim, as if it was about to be melted into his bright body by the brilliance of the sky.

There is extremely shallow snow on the plum branches in the back garden of Nanmenguanguan.

National Master Li Qingshan leaned lazily against the windowsill, looking at the snow on the plum branches and the buds that seemed to never bloom, suddenly coughed violently, and the cough echoed in the quiet Taoist temple, sounding extremely painful

He let go of the handkerchief that covered his lips. The snow-white handkerchief was as bright red blood as blooming like plum blossoms. He looked at the plum outside the window annoyedly and scolded: "It should bloom in winter but never bloom, so I'll let your family bloom a few first."

The Taoist nuns and Taoist pavilions in the south gate were silently guarding outside the hall, with their faces full of worry, but no one dared to go in.

He Mingchi walked over with a bowl of medicine and signaled a senior sister to take away the yellow paper umbrella under her armpit, walk onto the dark and smooth paulownia floor, and walk behind Li Qingshan and said in pain: "Master, you can't divination again."

Li Qingshan took the medicine bowl and drank it slowly, folded the blood-stained handkerchief, wiped off the medicine juice left on his beard, looked at his beloved disciple, and said expressionlessly: "Wei Guangming appeared last night, and he was still in Chang'an City, with the location between the three squares, but he had a vague intention of leaving. We must hurry up on this matter."

He Mingchi took the medicine bowl and said, "The military headquarters and Tianshu office have begun to prepare, but they are just worried about disturbing the man, so they have not yet searched the streets and alleys north of Xiangfang. Now only the master is there."

Thinking that the senior brother was alone in the East City, he was looking for the powerful and terrifying guy, Li Qingshan was silent for a long time and nodded, without saying anything, waved his hand to signal the people outside the hall to scatter and the disciple retreated.

A black carriage was driving slowly on the streets of Dongcheng, Chang'an. If you didn't get close to see or even touch it with your hands, it would be difficult to find that the carriage was made of steel, with some complicated and unspeakable patterns on it. The special wheels rolled on the hard stone road and made a rumbling sound, making it extremely heavy.

Master Yan Se in the carriage leaned against the soft seat of the golden silhouette. The eyes shot out from the triangle's eyes greedily searched through the curtains and searched the traces of the great priest of the Light. Where could he see the heavyness on the old and vulgar face?

If you really can meet, you will have a fight. If you really can't beat the other party, you will die. It's not a very important thing to kick your legs and suffocate. As long as you are a person, there will be that day, let alone the old Taoist, I have a successor.

The eaves of the newly built Spring Breeze Pavilion were swept through the window. Master Yan Se suddenly remembered Chao Xiaoshu, and then thought of his disciple who had no news when he left. The disciple was a student on the second floor of the academy. The master naturally didn't bother to worry about his safety. He just thought that he might not have the chance to meet again, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

At this moment, he remembered that before Ning Que left Chang'an City, he had asked himself to help take care of the little maid named Sangsang, but he was busy with that matter these days and forgot to go and see it... The old Taoist shook his head, thinking that Xie Ran was about to find that old guy in Dongcheng today, and it would be fine to go and take a look after the matter was done.

The first person to come to Lao Bizhai today was not Master Yan Se, nor the old man who came back from looking north outside Chang'an City... but a... a young fat man. When the fat man jumped out of the carriage, although the stone slabs on the streets of Alley 47 did not tremble like an earthquake, the flesh beside his round face really rippled for a long time.

The young fat man pushed open the closed door of the old Bizhai Shop and sat down into the ring chair that Ning Que used for use. He felt the flesh on his thighs was a little painful. He whispered a few words in anger, and then shouted loudly: "Go to tea."

He really didn't treat himself as an outsider.

Sangsang was preparing pine branches and yellow bacon in the backyard... This was the craft she had just learned from Aunt Wu, and was about to get dozens of pounds to surprise Ning Que. Suddenly, he heard a shout from Tao's face... I thought that the door of the shop has been closed recently, and a mosquito was surprised and took a towel... While wiping his hands, he walked into the front shop and closed the shop as soon as possible

The young fat man looked at the thin black maid who was walking over and ignored him... He went to close the shop door first, but was stunned. He then frowned and said, "The shop door is closed in broad daylight, how can he do business?"

Sangsang explained: "If you open the shop door, the threshold will be trampled by the person who comes to steal the book."

The young fat man was stunned for a moment, thinking that this is indeed the truth, and he actually forgot the huge name Ning Que is now in Chang'an City... Looking at the little maid, he asked, "My name is Chen Pipi, have you ever heard Ning Que say it?"

Sangsang was not surprised to hear the name, and Weifu bowed and said, "Sangsang has met Mr. Chen."

Chen Pipi rubbed her cute round chin, looked up and down at the short little girl, Shi Tao, and suddenly shook her head and said, "It makes sense that Ning Que asked me to take care of her... Although this genius was born with extraordinary temperament, you could tell that it was not a turbid person in the world at first glance, but you were still too credulous in this way... I'm afraid there would be problems."

Sangsang said, "I know you are Chen Pipi."

She has been to the academy several times, but the two of them have passed by Chengchao... Chen Pipi believes that her memory that stands out for the crowd will never have any problems, and she is puzzled by her fellow students: "Why are you sure that this genius is this genius?"

Sangsang looked at him and explained the scriptures seriously, "The young master often mentioned you. He said that you are as fat as you, but not ugly, and you will never be naughty or disgusting. You can even say that there are not many people who look good, so I know you are you."

Chen Pipi's right hand, which rubbed her chin, froze slightly, thinking that she didn't know how Liningque slandered her in front of this little maid, but she felt that although this comment mentioned fat, it seemed to be a little useful, so she didn't know how to answer.

"I won't say this."

Chen Pipi coughed twice, pretended to be serious and mature, and looked at Sangsang and said, "I came here today, so I naturally came to see you at Ning Que's request. After all, as a senior brother, I have this responsibility and obligation."

He hoped that Sangsang would show a touching look, but Sangsang obviously did not have this or the reaction. He just looked at him with expressionless expression and said softly, and then went to make a bowl of cheap flower cuckold for him.

Chen Pipi looked at her back and said, "My junior brother said he wanted to invite me to come here for a meal. He said your skills are good."

Sangsang looked at his chubby face and frowned and thought that it was no wonder that he would win, but he had no intention of keeping a guest. He put the tea bowl next to him and said softly: "After the young master comes back, Sangsang will cook for Mr. Chen."

What this sentence wants to express is very obvious and clear. Ning Que invites you to dinner and wait for him to speak in person. If you rashly come to the door to plan to eat, there is no other way. Do you don’t need to add more dishes with more pairs of chopsticks? In your body, you have to add at least two dishes? If it is still meat and vegetables, how much does it cost?

Listening to this, Chen Pipi's self-esteem was hit hard. Looking at the broken taro lily in the bowl, the fat on her face twitched slightly, so she had to decide to tell the truth: "Ning Que said that there is a smarter person hidden in this shop. I always think this is impossible after thinking about it, so I want to confirm it."

Sangsang glanced around the shop and found no one hiding.

Chen Pipi covered her forehead and said helplessly: "He said that the smartest person in the world is you."

Sangsang was stunned, thinking that Ning Que could only say he was stupid all day long, so how could he praise himself for being smart?

Although she was very happy that the young master praised the smartest in the world, she was still confused by this statement. She frowned and thought for a long time. She suddenly thought of some past events and said shyly: "I'm not smart, but I just have a good memory."

Chen Pipi looked at her and smiled contemptuously, saying, "Even if it is memory, I don't believe that there are people in the world that are stronger than me."

Sangsang lowered his head and looked at the small toe of the shoe that was poked out of the hem of the cotton skirt, and had no intention of arguing with him at all.

"Ning Que's cultivation is not good, and his knowledge is extremely poor. This genius was once recognized by Haotian Dao Sect, and even the back mountain of the academy is recognized. I don't know what he thought, but he dared to say that you are stronger than me."

Seeing her like this, Chen Pipi became more and more angry and said angrily: "Look at what Xiaoshoe does? Will I wear it for you?"

Although I knew that Ning Que was close to this young master Chen, Sang Sang, who was calm and even a little dull, was a little angry when he heard him mocking his young master. He no longer looked at the embroidered little...shoes on his feet, raised his head and looked at Chen Pipi's eyes, and said very seriously: "My memory is also recognized by Weicheng.

This is a truth. During the years she lived in Weicheng, she was always the most popular notary because she had the best memory and would not lie. However, Weicheng and Zhishouguan... the difference between the levels of these two places is too far away, but Sangsang's expression was still so serious, without any embarrassment, as if she wanted to tell Chen Pipi that since Weicheng recognized that I had a good memory, it was really good.

If there are two people in the world who generally recognize this and things, they will generally not recognize each other. This is probably the second reason for Wu Wu. Especially in the face of Sangsang's and his temperament, Chen Pipi wants to prove that he is smarter and better memory than her, but relying on his mouth is useless, and he has to show some real skills.

"Let's go and bid." Chen Pipi said.

Sangsang did not compete with others for any IQ or memory interests. Thinking about the pine branches under the bacon in the backyard were snuggling with smoke, how could he agree to his request? He walked back to the backyard by himself, picked up the pine branches with a wooden stick to make the smoke bigger, and then took out a new urn from the kitchen and squatted to the well to wash it carefully.

A few days ago, she was lazy in a pot of chicken soup. The old man was very happy to drink it, and there was a lot of soup on his beard. She thought that the young master also liked to drink her lazy chicken soup, and when he came back, he might not have enough portions of the old jar. So she went to a small shop in Anpingfang to buy a new jar. She thought that when she was lazy in the future, she would have two jars, which should probably be enough to drink.

Chen Pipi looked at the busy and thin back of the little maid and begged and tangled: "I don't care. Today you have to use something to defeat me, otherwise I won't be able to do it. Is there any book in the shop? We two are in the endorsement. If anyone loses, treat you to dinner. If you think it's boring... we gamble for money!"

Listening to the word "金", Sangsang's hand was suddenly stopped and he looked back at Chen Pipi.

Then she stood up and wiped her little hands, which were stimulated by the cold well water, randomly on her apron, turned around and walked into the bedroom for a moment, and then walked out again..." Her face turned slightly red, she said shyly and regretfully: "I can't understand the young master's talisman books, and I can't read other books."

(Have I not spoke for a long time? Okay, waved: Hello everyone.)
