Dafeng's Night Squad - Chapter 247
247 Dog meat shop (2)
The maidservants in the courtyard looked at this scene and were pleased. Now his wife was more and more indifferent. Every day, she practiced dance, adjusted the zither, admired the plum blossoms, and did some elegant things.
He almost didn’t show up during the tea gathering, or he would go out for a drink and leave the guests behind. Not only were the customers not angry, but they were even more enthusiastic about it.
Gradually, just being able to see a Fu Xiang courtesan was enough for men to boast about for days.
!!
After the “fragrant floating moon at dusk,” there was another poem that was quite famous:The beauty rolled up the beaded curtain, sat down, and frowned …
After the education workshop’s publicity, an allusion was fabricated for this poem:
The talented Lord Xu had made Lady Fu Xiang cry, and in order to make her happy, he was so anxious that he was running around. In the end, he drank three cups of strong wine in a row. Under the influence of the alcohol, his thoughts surged, and this poem was born.
Simple poems had no soul. After knowing the allusions and stories, they immediately became a topic of discussion.
Many scholars believed that Fu Xiang was a woman with talent and luck. If they had more contact with her, they might be able to write a poem like Xu Qi ‘an, and their names would be remembered for generations.
It was a great version of hype and selling character designs!
However, ever since Lord Xu left the capital, his wife often sighed and sent people to inquire about news every three days, asking if Lord Xu had returned to the capital.
At this moment, the manservant who was guarding the gate ran in with a letter in his hand. He waved it from a distance.
“Lady Fu Xiang, there’s a letter from Qing Province from Lord Xu.”
Xu Qi ‘an didn’t dare to sign the letters to the princesses, but he didn’t have to worry about the letters to Fu Xiang and his family.
Fu Xiang, who was originally quite interested, was stunned at first. Then, in a great reaction, she threw away the bamboo basket. She didn’t want the plum blossoms either. She lifted the hem of her skirt and ran up to welcome him, not even letting the maidservants send a message.
She snatched the envelope from the manservant’s hand, her eyes sparkling, like a little girl who had suddenly received a gift and was immersed in an unexpected joy.
Mr. Xu actually sent me a letter … Fu Xiang’s heart was bursting with joy because she realized that she still had some status in that man’s heart. It wasn’t just a show.
This realization made her feel light-headed, and she actually felt a little dizzy.
“Wifey …” The servant girl reminded in a low voice. The smile on the lady’s face was too silly.
Fu Xiang ignored her. She lifted her skirt with one hand and held the letter with the other. She quickly returned to the bedroom and closed the door. She opened it impatiently and walked to the bed to sit on the edge.
She pursed her pink lips and read word by word. Because the letter was not long, she was afraid that if she read too fast, it would be gone.
Seeing that Xu Qi ‘an didn’t go to the school workshop in Qingzhou, Fu Xiang was inexplicably happy. When he said that he should remember to trim his nails when he missed him, Fu Xiang was stunned for a while before she reacted.
“Bah!”
Fu Xiang’s face flushed red as she spat on the letter. She hugged the letter to her chest like it was a treasure and lay down on the bed. She closed her eyes and her plump little mouth curved into a happy arc.
…..
The Directorate of Celestials received the letter a little late, just in time for mealtime. In order to advance to an Alchemist, Yan Caiwei felt as if she had used up all the effort she had put in the past year.
He would be a salted fish starting next year and try to advance to the next rank in a few years. Anyway, he would not be so tired.
Her round oval face had become thinner, and her chin had become sharper.
She was currently sitting in the dining hall and eating dinner with her fellow disciples. However, before she ate, she decided to take a look at the letter that Xu ningyan had sent her.
She was a little happy.
there’s a delicacy in Yuzhou called ham with yellow sprouts. Ham is a delicacy unique to the South and hard to find in the North …
there are countless delicacies in Qingzhou. Allow me to list them all …
As she read on, Yan Caiwei’s eyes widened and she swallowed her saliva. After reading the letter, the Directorate of Celestials ‘ordinary food suddenly didn’t smell good.
He found it hard to swallow.
“That hateful Xu ningyan …” Yan Caiwei slammed the table and stood up, then walked out in a Huff.
“Where is Junior Sister Caiwei going?”
“I want to go to Qingzhou and Yuzhou!”
“Ah?”
let’s go to a restaurant. I don’t want to eat the food of the Directorate of Celestials. It’s terrible!
…..
Before dusk, Xu lingyue brought the little boy back to the house from the brothel, followed by two strong servants.
His aunt, who was wearing a dark red dress and a pleated skirt, was trimming the potted plants in the hall with a pair of scissors.
Her aunt’s life as the matriarch of the family was very boring. Her children had just grown up and had yet to marry, so there was no evil wife waiting for her to fight with.
In addition, the Xu family was not very large, unlike those families that had a lot of people inside and outside, so the aunt’s responsibility of managing the house was not heavy.
Every day, he would drink tea, water the flowers, and take the servants out to shop.
The inner city was more prosperous and safer than the outer city. She didn’t have to be afraid of running into tyrants when she walked on the streets. This was because there were night watchmen patrolling the inner city, the five guards of the capital, and constables from the government office.
She was already so old, but when she went out on the streets, there were still men staring at her in a daze. How annoying.
Xu lingyue entered the hall and saw her mother’s back, bent over and trimmed. She had a small waist and a full moon under her loose dress.
She was a little envious.
“Mother, I’m back …” A small cloth bag hung around Xu lingying’s neck. As she ran, the cloth bag swayed.
It shook her so much that she lost her balance and hit her aunt’s butt.
“It’s so noisy,” His aunt turned around and scolded.
After reprimanding her younger daughter, she looked at her eldest daughter. “How’s lingying’s performance in the court?”
The little bean had gone to school. This was a request that Xu Erlang had made when he came home last time. He definitely didn’t mean to vent his dissatisfaction. He simply didn’t want to see his younger sister neglect her studies.
