Chapter 346 Madam's Smile

(For some reason, there will be a power outage for two days, and the call came at more than seven o'clock in the evening to quickly code the code. Fortunately, there were half of the chapters written yesterday. Tonight, I will try to code two more chapters to try to make more changes tomorrow.)

Chapter 346 Madam's Smile

The General's Mansion is the residence of a prince of Shang State and occupies a huge area.Mrs. Chu and Luo Yao did not live together. She and her four bridesmaids lived in an independent small courtyard in the General's Mansion.After bypassing the small lake, I walked for a while to find out that the fenced courtyard in the bamboo forest, the locust tree in the courtyard that had risen above the roof, was particularly dissonant in the bamboo forest.

"This is the wife's residence. The lady has been waiting for a long time."

Sun Zhe led Fang Jie to the door and stopped. He smiled and said, "Lady likes to be quiet, and I can't go in at will. I can only take you here."

Fang Xie nodded his thanks, and then saw the door being pushed open from inside, and the two women in plain dresses walked out slowly.The clothes on the two women are almost the same, and the walking postures are similar. It looks as if there are no feet under the long skirt. They are floating forward.

The two men had the same white face, but they were almost the same as Chu's.

"Slaughter Qiuju, slave maid Dongmei have seen Master Xiaofang."

These two women seem to be very young, their bodies have gone out of shape, and the wrinkles on their foreheads and corners are telling others that they are no longer youthful.

Fang Jie returned the ceremony, Qiu Ju said that his wife had been waiting for a long time, and then Fang Jie invited him in.

Before entering the courtyard, Fang Jie suddenly felt a chill on the back ridge.It was like walking in a deserted alley in the dark, staring at something unclean behind.That kind of threat seems to be clinging to the back of the head, and at any time a ghost is thrown on the person.

At this time, Fang Jie saw a tree doll hanging on the big locust tree.

Just as the wind blew past, the dolls hanging on the tree swayed with the wind.The workmanship of each doll is exquisite, and it looks as if the eyebrows are full of life.I don't know how long these dolls hung on the tree, the wind and the sun and the rain, and the little clothes on the dolls have been broken.Partly because of this, the dolls looked extraordinarily gloomy.

Swinging, it was like a group of little ghosts looking at people and grinning.

These dolls look big like a three-year-old child, and small like a newborn baby.The most incredible thing is the fine workmanship. When walking next to the tree, Fang Jie subconsciously glanced at the nearest doll, and found that the doll was so fine that even the eyelashes and even the teeth were so realistic.With only a few glances at Fang Jie, he couldn't help moving his eyes closer and closer, and when he looked at the doll, it was as if the doll was watching him, which made him uncomfortable.

There are no fewer than fifty or sixty dolls in this tree.

Seeing Fang Jie staring at the doll, Qiu Ju apologized: "Since the accident of the young master, the lady likes to let people make some dolls, one or two every year, there are already as many as 60 or 70. These dolls come from The famous Su Ji Underworld Shop in Jiangnan is exquisitely made and almost unreal. "

"What is a nether shop?"

Fang Xie didn't understand and asked subconsciously.

"Just ... specializing in dead things."

Qiu Ju and Dong Mei didn't seem to object to this handsome little Fang, and changed their cold habits to people.Dong Mei whispered as she walked: "The business that Su Ji took was due to the family members who died in the family but was reluctant to do so. When Su Ji was asked, Su Ji would make a dummy that touched the dead person. almost the same."

When I heard this sentence, Fang Jie's scalp almost exploded, and he said how could Southwest still have such a business.He did not know that people in the southwest would inevitably be influenced by the life habits of the Pu people because of their long-term contact with the Pu people.It is said that the Pu people living in the jungle will not be buried after their relatives die.Instead, he asked the wizard to cut off the head of the deceased, brew it with a secret method, and hang it at the door of his house.It is said that the head of the wizard's secret method can be guaranteed not to be corrupted for decades.

This kind of horrible thing for the Central Plains people has been a habit that has not changed for thousands of years in the Pu nationality.

The way of thinking of the Pu people is completely different from that of the Han people. Let ’s take an example: a long time ago there was a poet from the original. Because of the curious way of life of the Pu people, he traveled to the southwest for thousands of miles. In the life of the tribe, they became friends with an old hunter of the Pu tribe.He lived in the old hunter's home, went out hunting with the hunter every day, drank rice wine, ate barbecue, and saw the eggs of birds and ate them open to eat.

After living in the jungle tribe for five years, the poet became more homesick and then said goodbye to the old hunter.He said that I would go back, I think my loved ones.The old hunter was reluctant to keep it a few times but the poet Sijia could n’t keep it.The poet prepared a table by himself, poured the rice wine for the old hunter and prepared to drunk with the old friend.

After the third tour of the wine, the old hunter told the poet that you were leaving, and I knew you would never come back.I will never see you miss you again in the future, can you leave a thing for me to commemorate?The poet said yes, what do you want?The hunter drew a knife to cut off the poet's head, brewed it with secret methods and hung it by the bed.

This is it.

Before going to bed every night, I would chat with the head for a while, and I still put two pairs of tableware on the table every day.

Yongzhou is less than a thousand miles from the jungle inhabited by the barbarians of the Pu ethnic group. This place is better. Nearer from the Pu ethnic group, many Han people are also getting used to the things of the Pu ethnic group.

Although Fang Jie had lived in Nanyan for a long time, he did not understand the lifestyle of the Pu people.Because the emperor Nan Rong Murong began to use troops against the Pu people after the founding of the country, so that no one in the territory of Nan Yan could be seen.After arriving in Yongzhou, I heard people mention it, but Fang Jie was not very interested.

At this time, when Dong Mei said it, he suddenly thought of the so-called Su Ji, which can make such exquisite things. This strange style seems to have the shadow of the Pu people.

The more he thought about the coldness in his heart, the more he felt that the dolls were staring at him.

"Sir Fang is afraid of these dolls?"

Dong Mei asked with some surprise.

Fang Jie smiled and smiled, and said that your lady is just a pervert.You've seen it all day, and you've got used to it for decades, but where can others be surprised?

"Just ... not used."

He said back, and quickly walked away from the big locust tree.

...

...

As she approached the door of the house, his wife Chu came out from the door.It can be seen that Qiu Ju Dong Mei's plain clothes were also influenced by her. The lady was wearing a white cotton dress instead of a brocade.The plain white dress is unlucky for filial piety, so her dress is dotted with light yellow flowers and the color of the belt around the waist also changes.But even so, it still looks as if it has just come out of the hall.

Fang Jie quickly owed his body to salute and said that he had seen his wife.

He met as a courtesy of his juniors, and Chu did not take it for granted, and then said something lightly.When she spoke, her tone was a bit strange, and it seemed a bit blunt.

Fang Jie followed her into the house, although she was ready, she was taken aback.

In the room, the ones laid on the table, hung on the walls, and even hung on the beams of the room were all the kind of exquisite workmanship dolls.

Fang Jie took a deep breath, and found that the smell in the room was a little strange.

"What is this smell, it doesn't seem to be sandalwood."

Fang Jie asked subconsciously.

The oldest maid, Chunlan, asked Fang Jie to sit down and pointed to the incense burner not far away: "This is called Fengweixiang, which is unique to the Cangman Mountain in the south. It looks like a laurel tree but the notes are intertwined. Then they separate again, just like the tail of the phoenix, and because this thing is very fragrant, it is called the phoenix tail. It has the effect of restoring the body, and many people are using it. "

Fang Jie uttered a sigh, and said to the Chus after sitting down on the chair: "Insult yourselves, please forgive me."

Chu's eyes kept staring at him, and the flat, cold eyes made Fang Jie very uncomfortable.She seemed to feel Fang Xie's thoughts, but she waved her hand if she didn't answer Fang Xie. . "

The faces of the four maids changed, and they looked at each other and the dolls in the house were picked up and taken away.

Without those things, the discomfort in Fang Jie's heart really reduced.

"I asked Master Xiaofang to be a guest. I would also like to take the liberty to presume."

Chu's mouth was ticked up, it was a smile, and then pointed to the dishes on the table and said: "Knowing that Master Xiaofang eats greasy things in Yongzhou City, I spent a morning making a table Xi, I have n’t done cooking in person for many years, but my craftsmanship is a bit rusty. In the past, generals like to eat the food I cook. "

Fang Xie looked at it and couldn't help but praised it: "Mo said to eat, but when you smell it, the saliva will come out."

He raised a broken Gu Dan from his cuff when he raised his hand. This thing was specially prepared by Fang Jie.The technique of Gu poison is difficult to eradicate once it is planted, unless the person who poisoned Gu is personally cracked.However, it is not impossible to prevent Gu poison. In order to prevent themselves from being poisoned by the enemy, the Pu people will take a Gu Gu Dan before eating and drinking in a strange place.This kind of medicine is only made with blind clover, it is not difficult to make.And after eating the Gu Gu Dan made of chili grass, even if you eat something with Gu Gu, it will quickly spit out.

It is said that all grub poisonous insects hate clover.In the jungle, there will never be any poison in the area where there is chlorella.Therefore, before the Pu people go into the jungle, they must tie a bunch of dried chickweed to repel insects.

Fang Xie did not worry that Luo Yao's wife would poison himself, but when he arrived in Yongzhou, he had to prevent being guilty.

In particular, Luo Yao has the most powerful wizards.

Lu Ou's words did not forget the solution. Lu Ou said that he knew the secret things in General House better than his wife Chu.He touched Po Gu Dan out of the cuff, and quietly threw it into his mouth before drinking.When eating, I waited for Chu to pour wine for herself, so Chu did not notice the small movement of the solution.

"Sir Fang is only seventeen this year?"

Chu asked after Fang Jie a glass of wine.

Fang Jie nodded: "It's only a few months before I reach seventeen."

"Well, it's three years younger than Zizi."

Zi Xu is Luo Wen's word.

"Twenty-three years younger than Yinxian."

The sage is Luo Wu's word.At that time, Luo Yao killed his family as a man, leaving only his wife Chu family.Twenty years ago, it seems that the Chu family can't let go.When she mentioned Luo Wu, her plain eyes changed slightly.

Fang Jie was stunned, feeling that this was awkward and did not know where it was.

"Eat, how about the craftsmanship."

Chu unscrews the dishes for Fang, and his face softens a little: “There are very few guests in my small courtyard, and the four of them are lazy and unprepared. It ’s my fault to make Master Fang uncomfortable. Sorry."

She looked at Fang Jie's eyes when she spoke, which made Fang Jie uncomfortable than those dolls.

"Mrs. You're welcome, this is the best vegetarian dish I've ever eaten in my life. I'm a soldier, so it's inevitable that I'm a meatless person. Today is the first time I feel that vegetarian dishes can stop me chopsticks.

Fang Jie turned the subject away, and he really felt that the five women in the small courtyard and the room were full of weirdness.

"Just love it, I will make it for you later."

Chu's corner of the mouth picked up, and finally outlined a seemingly normal smile.It's just that maybe it's been a long time since I laughed, and it still looks stiff.
