Chapter 115 New Year's Day
Sunan almost spit out a sip of tea and swallowed it hastily. The people around him exclaimed enviously, and there were many discussions: "Then Zhan Xueping really looks like this, so why is it always rumored that she looks ugly and shameless?" ?” There are also doubters and unbelievers in the words.
Don't say that others don't believe it, even Sunan himself can't believe it, what a country and a city, what a peerless beauty, who said, people in the capital are blind with glasses.All right, all right, he admitted that Zhan Xueping's appearance today is indeed much better than before, at most she can be regarded as elegant and handsome, with a good appearance.Where did that bunch of adjectives come from?The person who said this is too exaggerated, doesn't your conscience hurt?Goosebumps are up.
Sunan took a sip of tea helplessly, his black and white bright eyes rolled around, and seeing the "suddenly enlightened" faces of the people next to him, they whispered to each other and talked a lot, and he rolled his eyes secretly in his heart.
Foolish people, foolish people... These days, when you hear something, you really rely on facts, six percent on rumors, and knowing people depends on your mouth.Sunan sighed, dropped the money on the table, walked out of the restaurant slowly, and arrived outside Shi Niang's Yingge Square. Even in the daytime, the square was full of singing and dancing, lively and noisy.
Sunan is a little strange. Yinggefang has always been doing business during the day and night, resting during the day, and it will not be such a grand event until the evening.When they arrived in the workshop, Shi Niang was standing in front of the stage, and the workshop was burning with silver charcoal, making it very warm.Ten Niang put her hands on her hips, pointed to a group of girls in front of the stage, and said harshly: "I follow your hands and feet, General Zhan can learn it, there is no reason why you can't."
The girl on the stage responded weakly, her body crooked, and she was unbearably tired.Sunan walked up and down, walked to Shi Niang's side, saw her anxious face, frowned slightly and said, "What are you doing?"
Shi Niang looked at Sunan but was very happy. It was clear that the sky was full of ice and snow outside, but Shi Niang kept shaking a fan, dressed in summer clothes, and quietly pulled him over, with a mysterious expression on her face: "You don't know yet?" Well, the past few days, Xueping... General Zhan's reputation has spread throughout the entire capital."
With an excited look on her face, Ten Niang danced and said beamingly: "It is said that Zhan Xueping's dance is amazing. No matter what she looked like at the time, I can't find it now. Think about it, I taught Xueping's dance here. I'll let the girls in the workshop learn it, and when the time comes, I'll make a sign, won't my Yinggefang be famous in the capital?"
Speaking of this, Shi Niang smiled from ear to ear, as if a scene appeared in front of her eyes, gold and silver were rolling in.
Sunan's expression was weird, and his voice was raised by an octave: "Did you teach me?" How could he remember that Zhan Xueping couldn't learn that dance at the beginning, didn't he change his face with swordsmanship in the end, it was still martial arts in essence moves.Otherwise, with the rustling of the sword light, how could it be possible to smash the table so easily?
Ten Niang raised her brows upside down, and said, "Why didn't I teach it, Sunan, I can warn you, just for the last part of swordsmanship, I spent a lot of effort, what's the matter with earning a little money now?" Right now, Sword dance is very popular, but the most authentic one has to come from her?If she doesn't hurry up, what if someone robs her of her business?
"The general Zhan has been in the limelight recently, isn't she happy?" Si Niang sat at the table below, took the teapot, and poured a cup of hot tea for Sunan.
He smiled bitterly and said, "What are you happy about? I'm thinking about my mistakes behind closed doors." The few things that happened before were all related to Zhan Xueping. To put it bluntly, they murdered the emperor's relatives and offended the emperor's prestige. If the current emperor doesn't pursue it, it's fine up.If it was pursued, a few lives would not be enough for Zhan Xueping to lose.
"Fortunately, I heard that among the royal family members who fell into the water at that time, someone gave evidence, saying that they only saw Duan Jing pushing them down, but did not see Zhan Xueping. I will just skip this matter, and with the rescue of the siege in the palace, it will be done in one fell swoop. Once passed, there will be no reward or punishment, so this matter will be skipped.”
The corners of Shi Niang's lips curled up slightly, and her eyes were rather complicated. She said: "It is said that Wei Guogong is a celebrity around the emperor. He is reliable and trustworthy. It seems that what he said is true." I thought in my heart: If you are afraid, you will be afraid.
I glanced at Sunan and knew that he was a smart person, so just click on it.
Sunan smiled wryly, he didn't know this truth, it's just that...whatever your status is, you naturally have to take on some responsibility, the higher the position, the greater the responsibility, even if it affects the whole body, even though the person above has only one idea , but its impact cannot be ignored.
The Xia family has received the teaching of loyalty since childhood, a minister has to be loyal, and it is rare to be selfish.
Sunan sighed, Lin Jun has an elm head again, what if he suffers in the future?Shaking his head, forget it, let's take one step at a time.

In the capital city, it was covered with snow and covered in silver, but it couldn't hide the lively atmosphere here. A small half of the shops on the street had already closed their doors.There are a large number of out-of-town people in the capital, and during the rare New Year's Day, most people take a break once a year, no matter how busy they are, they have to spare time.
On the streets and alleys, the most common ones are red lanterns. The fiery red lanterns are exquisitely sewn, with white snow scattered on them, and strings of candied haws are hung on the street, but most people have joyful smiles on their faces.
In the Zhou Dynasty, New Year's Day was one of the rare official festivals.From the first day of the first lunar month to the fifteenth day of the Lantern Festival, not to mention shops, even civil and military officials can have a [-]-day holiday. Except for the officials on duty, they are exempted from the morning court, and the whole world celebrates and enjoys with the people.
Shiwai Pavilion also had a holiday early, closed the shop, paid monthly salaries and bonuses, and let the workers go back to rest early.Almost everyone who was able to walk left, even Aso took his daughter back to the town. Manager Zhao received the monthly payment early and went back to accompany his grandson.Only a few servants followed him because they were far away from home and it was inconvenient to come and go.
I am used to the tedious life of people coming and going, and I am not used to it when I suddenly relax.
Sunan dozed off in the hall, Shochiku hung his head, and a few servants were also sitting on the stools beside him. It was such a festive day, but the room was so empty that it was unbelievable that he could scream twice. echoed.
"It's outrageous!" Sunan slapped the table, and there was a loud bang, which woke up everyone from their drowsiness, and looked at Sunan in surprise.
"Pack up your things, let's go together." Hearing Sunan's words, Shochiku looked around in a bewildered manner, and asked inexplicably, "This is... Where is this going?"
Sunan said solemnly, "Of course I'm looking for someone to spend a good New Year's Day. Why is the house so empty?"
Songzhu didn't understand, "We came here in the same way last year." Thinking back to when the five of them came all the way to the capital, when they took over the yard and added the store, it was like today, the five of them were in the hall, and they cooked casually. That's enough.
"How can this be the same?" Now and then, Sunan was not happy anymore, laughed "hehe" twice, and urged a few people to pack up their things, ready to join the big money.
How many rich men can Sunan know here? It's just that person.When the five people arrived in front of the Duke's Mansion in a carriage with big bags and small bags, it was Xia Xueyao who came out to pick them up.
"Su Nan, from the look of you, it seems that poor relatives have come to seek refuge." Xia Xueyao looked at the few people, and burst out laughing, trembling wildly.Today she wore a crescent-colored brocade robe and an auspicious cloud cloak. She was lively and lovely, with a face as white as snow.
Sunan glared at her: "Who do you call a poor relative." The clothes on his body were still made by him.The young master has plenty of money, so he turned around and exchanged the money in Shiwai Pavilion for copper coins, and smashed them one by one, probably killing everyone.
"Oh, I'm just kidding, I'm leaving, I'm just waiting for you." Xia Xueyao stomped her foot coquettishly, pulled Sunan by one sleeve, and pulled him over affectionately. "Let me tell you, you can live at home for a few days if you want." It's okay to live for a lifetime, thinking of this, Xia Xueyao secretly covered her mouth and smiled.
Xia Xueyao has been accompanying Princess Duanrong in the palace all the time, and she can also take a holiday on New Year's Day.
In the mansion of the Xia Mansion, the maids and servants all signed death contracts, not as flexible as in the Sunan store. Even if it was a holiday, there were not so few servants in the mansion. Boiling, beaming and ready for the festival.
Lin Jun sat in the main hall and waited for him. He said that he was dressed in a black brocade suit, and he looked handsome.Surprise flashed across his eyes. Seeing Sunan couldn't help standing up, his face softened a little, and he said softly, "You're here."
Sunan chuckled, and set her sights on Zhan Xueping who was next to her. She was wearing a strong blue dress, with two strands of hair falling from her cheeks, and tied with small rings, which was quite exotic. It seems to be more feminine than before, with a touch of charm and refinement.
Everyone is acquaintances, and they are no longer polite.The original house I lived in, the decorations haven't changed at all, it's the same as before.
Just after dinner, before the table was set down, a group of unexpected guests came to the mansion.
