Tongzhuang

Chapter 12

Ruige left yesterday in a fit of anger, and I felt very bad. With her fiery temper, she probably won't come again.It's all my fault, I'm clumsy, I can't speak, and I pissed her off... Alas, if the young master sees her for a while, it will definitely change.

Although I've only known Rui Ge for a few days, I absolutely don't believe that she is the kind of brothel girl that my elder brother said.

I felt depressed while running the hall.The young master went to worship early in the morning, and today is the birthday of the late old master.Eldest brother is a filial son, even if he is so busy, he will never forget his days.

I was in a daze when someone patted me lightly on the shoulder. "...Huh? Less...Brother?"

It's the young master.He looked at me with a smile: "This is for you, Brother Chun." He stretched out his hand, and in his hand was a bunch of orange branches with two golden oranges on it.

"This……"

"Oh, this is given to me by the master in the temple. It's very sweet. Would you like to try it?" He gently handed it to me.

"Thank you brother!" I peeled one and ate it, "Yeah...it's really sweet!" I've never eaten honeydew, but I think honeydew is nothing more than that, it's so sweet that my tongue and throat are very comfortable.

Young master smiled softly.He has always been so gentle and gentle towards people, he speaks without haste or impatience, and even the occasional dissatisfaction will not flare up.

The deceased old boss was good at everything except for one thing. It is said that he was easily irritable and often scolded others to get angry.

I looked and saw that he was holding a bunch of oranges in his other hand, also two, more beautiful and bigger. "Brother, who is it for? For some girl?" I said jokingly.

Being teased by me, the young master's delicate face flushed slightly, and then he smiled: "What girl? This is for display."

"can not eat?"

"It's very sour. If you can't eat it, it just looks good." He handed it to me, "If you like it, take it together."

"Thank you, brother!" I happily took it, looked left and right, it was big and beautiful, and had a tempting fragrance, but I couldn't eat it?I didn't believe it, so I peeled one of them out of curiosity.

"Hey, Brother Chun, it's terrible! You don't want to eat it well..." The young master stopped him from the side.

But I moved very quickly, and I already broke two pieces and threw them into my mouth. Once I took a bite—"Wow!" I felt a terrible sour taste rushing from my mouth to my forehead, and my nose and eyes were wrinkled together!My tongue...my tongue is about to go numb...my teeth...I grinned from the soreness and frantically looked for water. "It's so sour, so sour—it's so sour...

The Shaodong family laughed, "I told you not to eat, but I didn't listen." Hastily handed me a cup of tea.

I gulped down a big sip, the sour taste subsided, and I took a breath. "Oh my god... I have never eaten such a sour orange in my life!" The sourness made my tongue numb, and my brain was still buzzing.terrible!

"It's the ones that can't be eaten. You can keep them for fun. If you want to eat, you can eat sweets." The young master said with a smile, and walked away.

I looked at the two oranges in my hand, one on the left and the other on the right. It was obvious that there was not much difference on the outside. Why was there such a big difference on the inside?One is as sweet as honey, and the other is sour as a toothache... It's all because of my cheap mouth, so I'm going to try it.Alas, I really don't listen to my elder brother's words, and I will suffer a loss in front of my eyes.

While regretting, a guest called me, and I hurried over.He grabbed me and asked urgently, "Is Miss Ruige coming today?"

"This... I don't know how small..." Seeing his obsessed look, I was disgusted for a while, and I just brushed it off.

Rui Ge should not come.I know she is the kind of girl with a very stubborn temper, who can do what she says.Thinking of this, I can't help but feel sad.She is a good girl, and treats me so well... It is easy for her to come to Piaoxianglou, but it is difficult for me to go to the brothel to see her, and I am afraid that I will not see her in the future.

The guest was dissatisfied with my answer and wanted to ask again. Suddenly, his thin eyes widened and a bright light flashed: "...here we come!"

With the commotion around me, I turned around, and saw Rui Ge went upstairs and was walking towards me: "Brother Han!" No matter where she was, she was amazed, and when she walked over a few steps, there were several times of chopsticks falling next to her. sound.

"Ruige!" Seeing her coming, I was both surprised and happy, and stepped forward, "I thought you would never come again!"

Rui Ge pouted, "Someone doesn't want me to come, so I want to come! I want to see who can drive me out!"

Immediately there was a warm response from all around:

"Who dares? Whoever offends you, girl, I will be the first to spare him!"

"Miss Ruige is joking, who doesn't want to see the girl's beauty every day? It's too late to keep you!"

"Someone chased Miss Ruige? He must have burnt out his brain, or he was blind!"

"..."

I felt uneasy, for fear of disturbing the young master who was studying in the inner room, I was anxious to turn the conversation away, and when I lowered my head, I saw something in her arms. "this is……"

"Ah, it's the pipa!" She pushed back her sleeves and hugged it close to show me.It is a very beautiful pipa, quaint red, and the head of the piano is inlaid with emeralds. "This pipa has been with me for many years. It's called Qingyue. How about I bring it here today and play it in your building?" she said excitedly.

I hesitate. "Is this... okay? Your mother won't blame you?"

Rui Ge pouted again, "She can't control me! The money I earned for her is enough for her next life! So what if you blame me? You can eat me by scolding me at most? Don't worry, I won't I play it every day, so it’s not uncommon...Brother Han, to tell you the truth, it’s not easy for me to play a song...I’m doing it for you, if you have more customers, your shopkeeper won’t scold you!" She smiled at me.

I was so touched that I couldn't speak for a while.

She saw the orange in my hand. "Hey, Brother Han, this is..."

"Oh, it's an orange, very sweet, here you are!" I gave her the sweet one, "The other one is very sour, I can't eat it."

Rui Ge happily took it, took a look at it, and peeled it off.

"Han Chun!" Suddenly Ah Fu hurried over and lowered his voice to me, "Here we come, hurry up and say hello."

I followed his fingers and looked over, and I was almost dizzy: Qi Feng!I don't know when I have been sitting upstairs!As soon as we saw him, we all panicked from upstairs to the shopkeeper and down to the handyman.

"Why do you want me..." I instinctively refused.

"You were the one who greeted me the last few times, of course you know how to serve best!" Ah Fu's words made my eyes go dark.

"...Okay, let's go!" After he finished telling, he slipped away.This kid!

I bit the bullet and walked towards Qi Feng.As we got closer, I unconsciously clenched my fists.As soon as I tightened my hand, I felt the orange pressing against my palm. Suddenly, I had a thought, and I had a teasing idea.

——Looking at the way this kid eats sour oranges, it must be very interesting... and very refreshing... Hehe, let him lose face in front of everyone, and see how he will continue to show off in the future!

He is obviously rich and powerful but doesn't do good deeds, just like this orange, which is rich in gold and jade in it, but in it, it is really a good match...

I thought so, and came to him, "Master Qi."

He raised his eyes to look at me.The slightly slanted posture of the eyes, although not intentional, always seemed to reveal a trace of contempt.

"This is for you." For some reason, my palms were sweating a little, but I still pretended to be calm and handed over the warm orange.

He seemed to be taken aback for a moment.Then smiled and took it from my hand.

His smile surprised me.He has always sneered, either contemptuously or mockingly, but today this smile is quite... soft, the kind of smile that ordinary people are in a good mood.

So, it's probably because he has something proud of him today and is in a good mood?

I just want to slap myself, no, two slaps!He's in a good mood, which means that today shouldn't be difficult for us. Why am I so cheap to mess with him and make his mood change from good to bad?

Just as he was regretting, Ruige's cheerful voice came: "Brother Han, your oranges are so sweet! They are so delicious! I've never eaten such a sweet orange... Where did you buy it..."

I watched Qi Feng's finger movements, as if it was about to peel off, I didn't dare to wait any longer, turned around and ran downstairs secretly.

I rushed into the utility room in the back yard and hid.Qi Feng must be furious, right?Such a sour orange, it's no wonder he didn't come to settle accounts with me...

After hiding for a long time, my heart was flustered and I was still guessing, when a hand patted me on the shoulder!

ah!I looked up in surprise, but it was Ah Fu.

Ah Fu immediately said: "Why are you hiding here? The shopkeeper has been looking for you for a long time! Miss Ruige plays the pipa, and there are too many guests upstairs... Now there is no one to serve you! The shopkeeper is so anxious that he is cursing. !"

I looked at him pleadingly, "Ah Fu, do me a favor...just tell the shopkeeper that I have a stomachache..."

"This……"

"Help me this time!"

Ah Fu also saw that I had something to hide, "...Oh, okay!"

"Wait!" I stopped him when he was about to leave, "Has Qi Feng left?"

"Master Qi? I didn't pay attention, probably...he hasn't left yet."

I grabbed his sleeve, "Tell the shopkeeper, I have a terrible stomach upset, and I won't get better until evening!"
