Chapter 16 Qinhuai (1)

The stall owner brought the duck blood soup. In the clear bowl of soup, there were a few clusters of scallion and coriander floating. In the white air, the fresh and fragrant duck blood soup seemed particularly mouth-watering. With the chili peppers, I took a bite into my mouth. It was very spicy, fresh and salty, and the aftertaste was long.

Although I have lived in Yingtian for a long time, I tried this street food for the first time. After enjoying myself, I drank the whole bowl of duck blood soup in three or two. When I put down the bowl, I found that Xu Yuanchun and Liu Rucui were eating their duck blood soup carefully, and at the same time, their eyes were looking at me from time to time. The surprise in their eyes seemed to be saying, "Why do I seem to be reincarnated as a hungry ghost, and my eating habits are so bad."

I didn't think of this before, and my face was a little hot. After thinking about it, I quickly turned around and said, "I don't know where the two young men are going?"

Although Liu Rucui was not big, she looked much smarter than Xu Yuanchun. When she heard this, her eyes turned and said, "We are going to a fun place, young master, you can go together too!"

"Fun place?" I looked at their outfits, and was really curious about where the "fun place" she said was, so I asked, "I don't know where it is?"

Liu Rucui smiled, approached my ears, and blew Rulan and said, "We are going to see the fun of Qinhuai River!"

"Qinhuai River?" My heart leaped suddenly. I looked at Xu Yuanchun and Liu Rucui again, and finally understood the reason for their outfits.

You should know that the Qinhuai River is the most prosperous place for fireworks in the world. It is said that the brothels and pavilions on both sides are endless. There are countless literati and scholars who claim to be a trend, or wealthy officials and businessmen in the world who are nostalgic and obsessed with it so much that they are so indulged in luxury. I have long seen the style of Qinhuai from books, and I also know that it is actually a huge gold-selling cave, but no matter what, I have always wanted to see and see what kind of scenery the place that can intoxicate any man in the world is.

At this time, when Liu Rucui said she was going to Qinhuai River, I immediately aroused my curiosity and thought about when I would go for a walk.

Liu Rucui probably saw my intention, and her face showed a close look and asked, "Does Mr. Zhu want to go and see?"

"Ah?" I looked up at Liu Rucui, "Do you invite me to the Qinhuai River?"

This little girl was really making a fuss. She actually invited me, a man whom I didn't know much, to accompany her to travel to the Qinhuai River. If the generals were out, I was afraid that even if she jumped into the Yellow River, she would not be able to wash it. "Well? Why would she be willing to follow this little girl?" While thinking, I saw Xu Yuanchun who had never made a sound on the side. She immediately smiled and asked, "Miss Xu, why are you so interested in going to the Qinhuai River?"

Xu Yuanchun didn't dare to look at me with his eyes. He lowered his head and thought for a while before he said shyly: "I...was Rucui asked me to go..."

"If she asks you to go, you'll go?" I was really funny at her words, and couldn't help but tease, "Ms. Xu, I wonder what you are going to play in Qinhuai River?"

Although Xu Yuanchun was shy by nature, he was obviously not a stupid person. When he heard what I said, he probably understood the meaning of it. His face turned red in an instant, and he was stammered for a long time but couldn't answer the reason.

I soon arrived at the Confucius Temple and Gongyuan area. Although the Qinhuai River was full of music and songs every night, I don’t know whether it was a coincidence or someone in the court deliberately built the Confucius Temple and Gongyuan on the side of the Qinhuai River, which made Siwen and Fengliu more or less related to the region.

Or because it was still early, the Qinhuai River I saw first was not prosperous. Instead, the breeze blew, and the green waves were shaking, which made people feel a little refreshing. Looking at the riversides on both sides, the courtyard pavilions were decorated in exquisite detail. The carved wooden railings and various window holes projected rays of light, making people want to go forward and peek into the courtyards.

We went in with a relatively spacious yard and walked in. As soon as we walked into it, we heard a soft voice saying, "Oh, the three young men are here, our spring building is so bright!"

All three of us were novices. For the first time, we entered this place, and we didn't know what the pattern was inside. We quickly turned around and saw a middle-aged woman dressed up swaying towards us. She was holding a silk handkerchief in her hand. Before the person could approach, the strong fragrance on the handkerchief was already coming.

"My three young masters have a very tight face!" The woman came to us and said, looking at her appearance, maybe even if we don't reply, she plans to continue talking.

"My surname is Zhu, these two are my cousins, one is Xu and the other is Liu." Although I have never been to a place of Fengyue, I have heard some rules in the kilns from my master, so I replied calmly.

You should know that in the flower streets and willows, the title of cousin actually has another meaning. Because the word "天" and "天" are homophones, those who are used to fooling around will be called "天" if they have played a bitch at the same time, and the person who goes first is called "天生" and the person who goes later is called "天生". If these things are not veterans on Daoer, they will generally not know.

When the woman heard my words, she thought I was a familiar person in the court. She smiled slightly and said, "It turns out that it is Mr. Zhu. Mr. Xu and Mr. Liu are here. Please sit on the second floor of the elegant seat."

The lobby of Manchun Tower is divided into two floors, and the tables and chairs downstairs are smaller, while the upper floor is probably because it is a elegant room, so the decorations are much more spacious. The woman led us to a private room, greeted us to sit down, and said with a smile: "Since the three young men come to play in Chunman Tower, that is also a blessing for the girls of Chunman Tower. I just don't know what girls the three young men like?"

"The girl I like?" I couldn't help but wonder how to answer, "This is the first time I've been to visit the kiln. Where did I like the girl I like?" While I was still thinking about how to reply, Liu Rucui on the side smiled and said, "Call the best girls here, I want to see it."
