Chapter 36 This Color
The next morning, it was dawn.
Xu Buling came out of Lu Hongluan's room lightly, stood in the corridor and stretched, feeling that he was about to be squeezed out.
I thought the baby would not come tonight, so Xu Buling squandered all his longing for Aunt Lu and Yufu. As a result, Aunt Lu had rolled her eyes, and the baby rushed in. She didn't feel pity at all. She rushed up and cleaned up. The taste...is not worthy of being told by outsiders.
But for men, the burden they should resist on their shoulders cannot be avoided, so it is natural to be tired.
Xu Buling thought so, and went to the next room to wash up. He dressed neatly while Yue Nu and Qiao'e tried every means to take advantage of the situation and walked out of the boat building.
On the deck outside the boat building, Zhu Manzhi, who used to go to bed late and get up late, actually got up today, stood on the edge of the deck with his chest and blew the river breeze, looking like he was thinking seriously.
Xu Buling walked up to him, turned his head and glanced at him, thinking that the branch was not breathing, and said with a smile:
"Manzhi, what are you thinking?"
Zhu Manzhi came back to her senses, glanced at Xu Buling, her face turned slightly red, and she showed a little twisted, and she muttered in a low voice:
"Mr. Xu...I, did I get drunk last night?"
?
Xu Buling looked at him a few times. Manzhi seemed to not remember what happened last night. He naturally looked cold and extraordinary, nodding slightly:
"I've drunk more, so I'll drink less in the future."
"ah……"
Zhu Manzhi's face gradually became embarrassed and hesitated: "Mr. Xu, I didn't do anything yesterday, right? I seem to remember, pouring Qingye over and then asking Mr. Xu to treat me...that's what, I can't remember it later..."
Xu Buling raised his hand and pinched the face of the whole branch: "You were very obedient last night, so I kissed you. Qingye didn't wake up, and then you fell asleep."
"Is that? How can I remember that I called you 'named Xu'... but I can't remember why I called you that..."
"Just drunk, don't take it to heart."
Xu Buling looked generous, leaned over and kissed the forehead of Baizhi, and turned to look around: "Where is Qingye?"
Zhu Manzhi felt a little embarrassed: "I poured her too much yesterday and haven't woken up yet, so why don't I go and call him?"
"Let her continue to sleep. It's okay to rest today."
"oh……"
Seeing that Xu Buling did not blame her for being drunk, Zhu Manzhi felt a little relieved. She got up too early and didn't sleep well, so she ran back to the cabin.
Xu Buling led the horse to chase the wind and waited quietly on the deck. After a while, Cui Xiaowan walked out of the boat building.
Cui Xiaowan was wearing a small village girl's skirt, still dressed in the Peach Blossom Valley. In order to cover up, she also had a white gauze covering her face and a small basket in her hand.
Xu Buling turned his head and glanced at the aisle, and smiled and said, "Xiang'er really won't go?"
Cui Xiaowan's expression was quiet, and she walked to the Fengfeng Horse and turned her back with a little difficulty:
"My mother came back in the early morning, so where can she get up?"
"Well……"
Xu Buling's face turned red. Seeing that Cui Xiaowan knew about the baby's sneaking away, she didn't say much, and led the horse down the deck...
———
As the morning light began to fade, the girls got up one after another, and the maids on the boat were a little bored. They got off the boat in groups of three or three, and walked on the grass with red flowers and green willows on the shore.
In the room, Zhu Manzhi was still asleep and still not awake. He treated Ning Qingye as a pillow. The octopus seemed to be wrapped tightly, and his face rubbed against Ning Qingye's white ball from time to time, looking for the most comfortable position.
Maybe because he was pressed, he felt a little chest tightness. Ning Qingye opened his eyes and drank too much sour wine last night, which made him feel a little headache and couldn't help but frown.
"call……"
Ning Qingye lay on the pillow for a while before gradually awakening. In the blink of an eye, she found that it seemed that the sun had been noon, and it seemed that it had been absent. She quickly turned over and sat up. After sitting up, she remembered that Xu Buling had taken a day off today and did not need to go to the military camp to relax.
Ning Qingye sat on the bed and rested for a while, suppressing the discomfort after the hangover. After thinking about it carefully, she didn't remember what happened last night. She had been sleeping soundly and was not worried about getting drunk or crazy, so she didn't take it to heart.
He raised his hand and shook Fanzhi twice. Seeing that Fanzhi was not awake, Ning Qingye got up and put on his skirt, and went outside the room to wash.
After searching on the boat, she learned from the maid that Xu Buling had left. Ning Qingye had no objection to this. Anyway, she was fine today, so she was back to accompany Manzhi.
But the branches had not yet risen, and it was obviously a bit bored on the boat. Ning Qingye walked along the corridor and waited for the branches to go out together. When he walked to Song Yufu's window, he saw Lu Hongluan and Song Yufu sitting opposite each other on the small table, with a bunch of white jade signs in front of him, and he was talking about something:
"...I asked my husband yesterday, I can't eat, I can only touch..."
"I'll just say that Xiang'er's dead girl will fool me..."
Hugh...
Ning Qingye glanced at the window for a moment, and didn't understand, so he looked at it curiously for a few more times.
Lu Hongluan was fooled by Xiang'er in various ways and lost a lot of private money to Xiang'er. She was studying the card type at this time. When she saw Ning Qingye in a blink of an eye, Lu Hongluan showed a smile on her cheeks:
"Miss Ning is up! I asked Yue Nu to make sober soup, and now I'll let her bring it over..."
"Oh, thank you."
Ning Qingye didn't have much contact with Lu Hongluan, and he always regarded Lu Hongluan as Xu Buling's elder, and was a little restrained. She walked into the house, sat next to the small table, picked up the white jade sign and looked at it:
"This is?"
Song Yufu learned it faster and explained softly: "Sister Xiang'er made it, a thing to relieve boredom in her spare time, and her husband said it was called 'mahjong'..."
Ning Qingye nodded in a vague way. The jade plaque was smooth and comfortable to touch. So she rubbed it with her hands a few times. She just turned it over and saw the handwriting on "80,000", and her eyes slightly condensed.
The two words "80,000" on the white jade plaque are carefully carved with a carving knife and then painted; "8" is black lacquer, "10" is red lacquer, and it is very common for wood purplish lacquer, but it is extremely rare pink, which is particularly beautiful, but this color...
Ning Qingye was a little confused. He looked at the pink touch carefully for a few seconds and suddenly understood where the red pigment on the Master’s nightgown came from.
However, this is the first time Ning Qingye has seen this small white jade card. She has been with her master these days. It is not reasonable for the master to get in touch with these in advance...
Could it be that this kind of pigment is used to paint the geological sand...
Ning Qingye rubbed his fingers and felt it. He didn't know what formula to use for the paint. The color was bright but there was no graininess or thickness. It was like jade was originally this color and could not be erased with his fingers...
!!
The more Ning Qingye thought about it, the more something was wrong. It seemed that something flashed through his mind. Before he could think thoroughly, Lu Hongluan next to him spoke in confusion:
"Miss Ning?"
"oh……"
Ning Qingye came to his senses, quickly put down the jade token, and smiled and said, "I drank too much yesterday and haven't woken up yet. I...I'll go out for a breath..."
"Oh, OK. Yuenu brought the sobering soup over, let's take a sip first."
"Thank you..."
