Chapter 18 Washe

Compared with the turbid atmosphere on the first floor, the second floor is much better. Under the guidance of the waiter, Mo Yunxiao sat on a high chair wrapped with gold wire. There was also a coffee table in front of her.

There is a pot of tea and a plate of longan and melon seeds.

The boy said with a smile: "It's rare for a girl to come to our shop once, and I will take charge of it. In addition to the tea and melon seeds, I will give you a plate of preserved apricots. What do you think?"

"Hey! Xiao Linzi has become more generous, and is he willing to add some color to our girl?" Huan'er said, half teasingly and half happily.

The boy was a little embarrassed, touched his head and said: "During the 'national mourning', the fireworks in the store are not bright. I hope Miss Mo can make our store more popular."

Huan'er nodded with satisfaction and said, "I know you are interested, so go quickly. We will come here often in the future, thank you for taking care of us."

"Sister Huan'er, this is such a shame." He said while bowing with a playful smile, then turned around and left.

Mo Yunxiao looked away from the boy who was walking away and cast his gaze back to the stage on the first floor. At this time, the performers had not yet appeared on the stage, but there were a few spectators sitting around.

"That guy has such a sweet mouth." Mo Yunxiao sighed.

Huan'er stood beside her and waved his hand with a smile, saying, "Isn't this natural? Who among the waiters in Wazi is not the best at telling the truth?"

In less than a cup of tea, the boy came upstairs again. He came with a plate of plump and fresh preserved fruits in his hand, with a well-trained smile on his face. "Miss Mo."

, Sister Huan'er, this is to honor you two." He put the fruit plate on the table, pointed in the direction of the stage, and said: "Today's performance is 'Joining the Army', I'm sure you will be happy."

"Join the army?" Mo Yunxiao looked at the boy with a confused look. The boy was also stunned, and also raised his head and looked at Huan'er.

Huan'er was stunned for a moment, then quickly explained with a smile: "My girl hasn't been here for a while, and she hasn't changed her mind for a while. Okay, okay, I don't need you to serve me here, go and do other things."

"Yes, I'll go first. If you need anything, call me again." After saying that, he nodded and left.

"Huan'er." Mo Yunxiao turned around and looked at Huan'er, and asked with a confused expression: "What is this military drama?"

"This..." Huan'er thought for a while, laughed again, and said, "Miss, you are really cautious. Forget it, let's just play it to the end. This 'joining the army play' originated from the former Tang Dynasty and was composed of two

The actors perform. One plays the role of the military master, and the other plays the role of the servant. The servant plays with the military master, telling jokes to amuse the dull man. In short, it is a drama and a humor, one positive and one negative."

As she spoke, she turned her palm back and forth, then rolled her eyes, picked up a piece of preserved fruit between her two fingers, and suddenly stuffed it into Mo Yunxiao's mouth.

Mo Yunxiao was startled and subconsciously held Huan'er's hand. But after chewing it carefully, she felt that the preserved fruit was fragrant, sweet and sour, and she couldn't help but laugh and said: "It's delicious, you can too."

Eat a piece."

"Yes, thank you for the reward, Miss." Huan'er was not polite, and also picked up a piece of preserved fruit and ate it herself with a smile. "Yeah! Girl! The drama of joining the army has begun, look!" She said vaguely while chewing the preserved fruit.

Said.

Mo Yunxiao was a little confused and looked in the direction of her finger. Sure enough, he saw a man dressed as an officer striding onto the stage. He was wearing golden armor, a hooded headband, and a pair of calf leather boots.

There was a "thumping" sound on the wooden stage.

"Youba!" There was a burst of cheers from the audience. Mo Yunxiao still frowned and asked Huan'er: "What is 'Youba'?"

Huan'er was also holding on to the railing, looking down on her tiptoes, and replied perfunctorily: "This is what we Tokyoites applaud! Phew! Youba!" As she said this, she waved to the audience desperately and shouted loudly.

With.

Mo Yunxiao looked at her cheering back and couldn't help but think of modern star-chasing girls. Although time flies and changes occur, some things have never changed.

The officer stepped onto the stage and flicked the riding crop in his hand, making a crisp sound and immediately suppressed the cheers of the people.

After the surroundings were quiet, he slowly said: "My military master was entrusted by the officials, and the prime minister ordered me to lead a hundred thousand troops to Yanyun, vowing to take back the sixteen states of Yanyun from the Liao people. Jing Tai

The unfinished achievements of our ancestor Taizong are the unfulfilled wishes of all the Han people in the sixteen states!"

The general's voice was like thunder and his tongue was like thunder. This passage was so sonorous and powerful that the audience was so excited that they had to applaud loudly.

But at this moment, a thin servant stumbled onto the stage and shouted: "It can't be done, it can't be done! This big thing can't be done!"

The officer turned around, glared angrily, and asked, "Idiot, can't you do such a small thing as ordering troops?"

The servant replied: "Return to the general, it's not the matter of ordering troops that's failed, it's the yellow-skinned dog in our house that's failed!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole house burst into laughter. "Ouch! Yellow-skinned dog...yellow..." Huan'er also laughed.

Mo Yunxiao also found it interesting and thought to herself: "So the prototype of cross talk can be traced back to the drama of joining the army? If I didn't come here in person, I really wouldn't have gained this knowledge."

Just as Huan'er said, the two people on the stage were in harmony with each other, one positive and one negative, and they performed a farce of a Northern Expedition to the Liao Kingdom, regaining the homeland but returning with a disastrous defeat. When the general made a fool of himself, everyone burst into laughter.

; When the war failed, everyone sighed with regret.

Huan'er was laughing so hard that tears flowed down her face. She wiped away her tears and said, "Oh! It's really interesting. If all the generals in the Song Dynasty were as confused as this general, not only would it be difficult to regain their homeland, but they would also be afraid of themselves.

We can no longer defend our country."

Mo Yunxiao smiled bitterly and said thoughtfully: "I'm afraid your words are a prophecy."

Huan'er was stunned and quickly asked: "What do you mean, girl?"

"Oh, it's nothing." Mo Yunxiao drank the last bit of soup in the tea bowl, then stood up, straightened her clothes, and said, "It's getting late, let's go."

"That's right." Huan'er also packed up her clothes and appearance and helped Mo Yunxiao walk downstairs. As she walked, she said with unfinished thoughts: "Girl, let's come back tomorrow. I heard that this drama will happen today."

I haven't finished the performance yet, and I really want to know if the arrow has been removed from the general's butt."

"An arrow in the butt?" Mo Yunxiao laughed and said, "Don't you think he is alluding to Emperor Taizong?"

"Oh." Huan'er thought for a moment and murmured: "In the battle of Gaoliang River, Taizong was hit by an arrow in the thigh. He hurriedly rode an ox cart to escape with his life. But the general in this play was hit by an arrow in the buttocks.

, was carried back by a sick donkey. Yeah! But it’s true!”

Mo Yunxiao was quite amused when he saw her serious look, so he said: "Looking at you like this, didn't the Song Dynasty have tolerant laws? If this play can be done so unabashedly, I don't think the court will incriminate it."

.”

Huan'er pouted and said, "That's not true. At that time, Bachelor Su only wrote a few poems and the court took them away, almost costing his life. And my father..." At this point, her eyes turned red.

, and his voice became choked up.

Mo Yunxiao also held her hand tightly and said warmly: "I'm happy today, so I won't mention these things. It's up to you. Let's come back tomorrow and see if the arrow cluster on the general's butt has been pulled out."

Huan'er also smiled, and when he was about to answer, a man rushed upstairs and hit Huan'er hard on the shoulder.

"Ouch!" Huan'er's body was weak and could not withstand the heavy impact. He suddenly lost his center of gravity and fell down on the steps.

The man didn't even look back. He climbed the stairs as if he were walking on flat ground. He went up to the corridor on the second floor in a few clicks. Huan'er turned around and looked at him angrily and cursed: "Oh! Who is so reckless and walks without eyes?"

?”

"My little lady is so handsome. I have to look for her. I'm afraid I'll miss you in the future, so I took a piece of handkerchief from my lady. Don't blame her!" The man said as he ran up the second floor.

Huan'er's eyes widened and she was filled with anger. She had gained quite a lot of power since joining the Mo family and had never been teased or bullied like this before. Her face turned red, she was angry and anxious, and she shouted: "You're so stupid! You're still here!"

My veil!" She said, jumping up and chasing after the man.

"Huan'er!" Mo Yunxiao was about to pull her but couldn't. Seeing her chasing after that person, she became anxious for a moment and her eyes followed the pursuit of the two people closely.

"Young lady, you are chasing me so hard. Are you so interested that you want to be my wife?" The man said and threw a small package in his hand downstairs and shouted: "Go on!"

Mo Yunxiao's eyes flickered, and he saw that the person who caught the small package was the beggar who begged him for water and food. He caught the package, smiled at Mo Yunxiao, turned around and ran outside Wazi.

.

"Ah!" Huan'er cried out while holding on to the railing, pointing at the man and saying, "Girl! That man ran away! He ran away!" She jumped and shouted, tears overflowing from her eyes.

Mo Yunxiao had no idea for a moment and said hurriedly: "Huan'er, don't worry, let's go back and I'll give you another handkerchief."

Huan'er shook his head anxiously and said, "That was Chengyu...Chengyu left it to me..."

Mo Yunxiao's eyebrows twitched, and her heart became brighter. It turned out that Huan'er was not after the handkerchief, nor was he trying to punish the frivolous libertine, but was instead caring about the token left by her husband in her heart.

Thinking of this, she threw away her felt hat heavily and said angrily: "Anyone who dares to offend me, Mo Yunxiao, is really heartbroken!" As soon as she finished speaking, she rushed like an arrow from a string.

Got out.

Huan'er raised his eyes and looked again. There was no trace of the man before, so he had no choice but to run downstairs and chase in the direction of Mo Yunxiao. The people in the tiles all had incomprehensible expressions and silently

Looking at her.

It wasn't until she ran out for a long time that someone muttered: "If you dare to mess with this 'Female Yama', I'm afraid she's not from out of town?"

Mo Yunxiao was also surprised that as a pampered wealthy daughter, she had such good physical strength. She and the beggar chased back and forth, ran across the Jinliang Bridge, Taishi's Mansion, and headed straight to the West Teaching Center.

Pedestrians along the road saw Mo Yunxiao at the first sight, and they all gave way. Some of them failed to do so on the bridge, and even jumped into the river. The mule carts and Taiping cars, which were full of goods, also hurriedly turned around.

But their movements were slow, and the beggar was also very skilled. He could often jump over with a single leap. But sometimes he would miss in a hurry. A police car loaded with ringo and radishes collided with him.

With a "clang" sound, the car overturned and people fell over, and the round ringworms and radishes rolled everywhere, all over the ground.

The beggar also rolled on the spot a few times, got up and ran again. But Mo Yunxiao was much more agile. She ducked left and right, sometimes jumped up, sometimes ducked to avoid, and sometimes even jumped onto the roof of the house.

The tiles under my feet made a "clicking" sound, and the wind was blowing in my ears.

The beggar seemed to have turned around and ran into an alley in a panic. This alley was remote and narrow, and the most important thing was that it was a dead end. Unless he returned the same way, he could not escape.

When he looked back, Mo Yunxiao was already blocking the entrance of the alley. She put her hands on her hips and gasped, "Run! You should run! Let me see where else you can run!"

As she spoke, she walked towards the beggar. The beggar was a little panicked and backed away repeatedly. Mo Yunxiao laughed and said, "Now you should know how powerful I am!"

But the beggar suddenly changed his face and said with a sinister smile, "Hey, I know Miss Mo is not easy to mess with, but our beggar gang is not a soft persimmon either."

"What? A gang of beggars?" Mo Yunxiao suddenly felt a little funny and said disapprovingly: "Do you think you are making a martial arts movie?"

Before she finished speaking, her vision suddenly went dark. She was panicking, and when she was about to struggle, she felt a violent shock in her neck, and she fell into a deep coma.
