Chapter 363 Seeking to be straight
He looked about fifty years old, and was very thin, and his clothes were much wider than ordinary people. At first glance, he thought it was a skeleton that had been worn by mistake, empty.
To be precise, it was a blind man who was wrapped in a black brocade cloth on his eyes.
What makes people feel most strange is that on the black cloth strip, two white dead fish eyes were embroidered at the original position of their eyes, which looked weird and funny.
Madam Xie, with her many years of experience in observing people's sex, confirmed that the old man in front of her must be a person with a story and a lot of need to be beaten!
"There are guests today?" Before Xie Jingyi could speak, the Gou's ears moved and he said first, "This is the first time you have brought a guest back."
Mi Fu smiled, "Well, it's just what I told you yesterday, the lady Xie San who helped me drive the dog on the way. You greet me first, I'm going to cook, Sister Xie San brings good wine, and you'll have a good time today."
When Xie Jingyi heard this, she hurriedly said, "Sister, you have to be polite. Is this my brother-in-law?"
Mi Fu's face turned slightly red, "Well, I'm always a little older, but I'm pretty good. He has bad eyesight, so you can just sit around by yourself. When you go out in the morning, you happened to see someone selling lotus pods. I bought some and put them on the table in the house. You can take them to eat."
"Okay, I don't have much skill, so I won't help."
Mifu didn't care either, so he took the apron and went into the kitchen with the meat.
The Gou nodded at Xie Jingyi, "Miss Xie San, right? Come in and have a cup of tea."
Xie Jingyi responded and observed him carefully. Although he couldn't see his eyes, he was steady and did not panic at all. He did not hesitate at all when crossing the threshold. Obviously, this situation will not be a day or two.
There were no chairs in the room. On the straw mat by the window, there was a small wooden table, and a futon was placed on each side. The table was filled with tea sets.
The man surnamed Gou took the lead and sat down, picked up the teacup, poured a cup of tea for Xie Jingyi, and then filled it with himself.
Xie Jingyi sat down without hesitation, but sat at will, very heroic.
The man surnamed Gou took a sip of tea, "My wife, with a pig's knife hanging on her waist, often passing through that street with her meat on her back, and never a vicious dog dared to step forward. Xie Sanniang's tongue is full of lotus flowers and deliberately approaches her. What is the purpose?"
Xie Jingyi drank all the tea. The tea cup was as big as sesame seeds and mung beans. A cup of tea was not as saliva as her. It was simply a powerful tool for literati to pretend!
Xie Jingyi had hated this very much in the palace before. How dare you imagine it? It will fall down again every once in a while, and it will fall down again every later. It is so exhausting that the nanny is so tired!
"No, no. Brother-in-law, you haven't fallen into the pit for the first fifty years, but it doesn't mean that you won't fall into the pit when you go out today! What's the benefit of being deliberately approached? Should I come and eat it with my mouth, or can I secretly learn how my brother-in-law's pair of dead fish eyes are embroidered?"
The surname Gou Zheng was holding a teapot and poured a second glass of water for Xie Jingyi. When he heard this, his hand shook and a few drops of water sprinkled on the table.
"Mifu said that you are truly in character and have a strong aura. It seems that it is true. Could it be that I blamed you wrongly?"
Xie Jingyi finished drinking the second cup of tea, "That's right. If you don't say secret words, I don't think my brother-in-law is overjoyed. Today, I'll eat your meal and eat this door. I'm afraid I can never come in again and can't see you anymore, right? Gou Shanzhong Gou Master."
Gou Shanzhong shook his head, "You recognized the wrong person. My name is Gou Shi, not Gou Shanzhong."
"Why do you have to do this by Master? You are Jiang Taigong fishing and have set up a formation. Now the fish is trapped in the trap, but you don't admit it. You know, why I came."
Gou Shanzhong sighed, "I said everything, you recognized the wrong person."
Xie Jingyi laughed out loud, "At this time, at this age of Master, there are not many people who can write the two words "Mi House" in front of the door. Before I came, I saw Gou Shanzhong's words and his portraits. I also know that Master Gou likes ancient rituals and is good at tea ceremony."
"If you really want to be that hermit, the Master would not have to write those two words without silver here. In the eyes of those who don't understand, it is a wooden sign, but in the eyes of those who understand, it is a bright lamp in the darkness, which is shaky, and I am here!"
"The wooden sign is very new. I think the Master noticed someone was looking for you, so I hurriedly wrote it and hang it out!"
Gou Shanzhong was speechless.
After a while, he chuckled, "I did have this intention, but I didn't expect that a little lady would come. Are you a female official in the palace? For whom and why?"
As he said that, he smiled self-deprecatingly again, "So what if I am Gou Shanzhong, have you seen the Master who is blind? The official who is blind?"
"That's true. Even if you teach Zhou Yi now, you won't poke your eyes like before, pretending to be leaking the secret of heaven and being punished."
Gou Shan’s central story.
"But you are not blind, this is not a problem. Besides, you are too confident. Who said someone is looking for you to ask for a resurgence? It is also possible that you are just your old friend, just like asking you for a drink."
Gou Shanzhong finally burst into laughter, "It's interesting and interesting! How do you know I'm not blind?"
"Normal people will subconsciously cover up their defects. Blind people usually don't use cloth to cover their eyes. Even if they cover their eyes, they will never embroider a pair of dead fish eyeballs on the cloth strip. This is simply saying, come, come, come and see me blind."
"The Master moves smoothly. I have seen blind people. No matter how familiar the place is, it will stagnate slightly when it reaches the threshold, but the Master does not. So I dared to guess that the Master can actually see it. Even if he covers his eyes with a cloth, he can still see a rough idea."
"When I entered the door and sat opposite the Master, I was sure that my guess was correct. Your white line was transparent and the stitches were sparse. From the outside, I was attracted by the dead fish eyes, but inside, I could see a four or five or six."
"From the sign, I couldn't help guessing. The Master is laughing at himself. I think I had misunderstood someone and the wrong thing back then, and there was a hurdle in my heart that I couldn't get over it. The Master lives in Kyoto, so he naturally knew what happened in Kyoto recently."
"You can even guess who came to find you at this moment and what is the purpose of finding you. What is the Master's demand? You might as well say it out. However, this is what I personally asked for for Sister Mifu."
"Whether it can be done or not, it's not up to me, a pawn."
Gou Shanzhong sighed, "Are the female officials in the palace speaking as straightforward as you?"
