Chapter 30: Difficult Love ()
The fireworks in the sky continued to bloom, the roofs and streets were illuminated by bursts of white light, and there were peaceful and comfortable smiling faces all around.
Bai Yutang shook his arm, Zhan Zhao looked back at him, "What's wrong?"
Fifth Master smiled softly, and pointed to a shop in front of him: "How about going there and picking out a pendant for the token you gave me?" Although Bai Yutang said so, how about it?Before Ke Zhanzhao could speak, Fifth Master dragged him away.
Zhan Zhao followed this man's footsteps, and his hand was pulled tightly: "Zhan didn't say no, what are you in such a hurry for?"
The two got out of the crowd and approached the store entrance, Bai Yutang didn't wait for Zhan Zhao to break free from his hand, then slowly let go, and then looked at him with narrowed phoenix eyes.
Seeing him laughing like this, Zhan Zhao only glanced at him and then quickly turned his head away.
There are colorful lights hanging in front of the store, and several shop assistants lean on the door to watch the passers-by, or look up at the fireworks and chat with each other.
Wu Ye and Zhan Zhao walked into the shop.
"What do you two buy, gentlemen?" The shopkeeper in front of the counter asked the two shopkeepers when they saw customers coming in.
Leaning against the counter, Fifth Master slowly took out the jade flute from his pocket: "Find a pendant that matches this flute!" Zhan Zhao said nothing.
Seeing the look of the young man in white in front of him, his movements were full of dignity, the shopkeeper hurriedly brought out a wooden plate from under the counter, and there were various and colorful pendants on the wooden plate.
Fifth Master lowered his head and glanced over, then picked up one of the pieces and looked at them for a while, then dropped them casually. "Although the pattern is beautiful, the texture is not good! Such a big shop doesn't even have a decent pendant! I'm still afraid that I won't be able to pay for it!" Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows slightly: How can such inferior things match? I got the jade flute that the cat gave me!
Zhan Zhao doesn't understand these things, but just now he also looked at the pendant on the wooden plate and thought, it's very beautiful, isn't it just a pendant, why is it so particular!
The shopkeeper was afraid that such a rich guest would leave, "wait a moment, both of you." He hurriedly walked out of the cabinet, opened the curtain, and walked into the back shop.
Fifth Master smiled at the cat.Zhan Zhao's round eyes widened: "Those are okay!" He pointed to the pendant on the plate and said.
Bai Yutang shook his head and put the jade flute into his arms: "I don't like it!"
Zhan Zhao opened his mouth and said nothing, at this time the shopkeeper had already opened the curtain and came out.Holding a red wooden box in his hand, he approached Bai Yutang, "Master, take a look."
With a flick of his sleeve, Fifth Master grabbed the wooden box directly into his hand.
"Master, you, be careful." The shopkeeper called out cautiously.
Bai Yutang glanced at him, opened the box, and as the box was slowly opened, a burst of white light gradually intensified, and then the whole box was shrouded in white light.Fifth Lord took out the items in the box, looked at them in the palm of his hand: "Shopkeeper, why didn't you take out this good thing in the first place."
The shopkeeper smiled a few times: "Master, are you satisfied?" He picked up this Ye Mingzhu when he came back from visiting relatives in Dali. Seeing that it was so good, he made a pendant on his own whim. And weaving the Ye Mingzhu like this, the owner probably won't recognize it!
Unexpectedly, it was a pendant made of luminous pearls. The pure and flawless luminous pearls, about half the size of a duck egg, were surrounded by silver wires with eight round edges, and there were light blue flower spikes hanging underneath.Wu Ye was naturally very satisfied after seeing it.
When Zhan Zhao walked in, Bai Yutang casually tossed the box to the shopkeeper, then held the jade flute from his pocket with this hand, and handed it to him together: "Cat, hang it up for me."
Zhan Zhao took the jade flute and the Ye Mingzhu pendant, he didn't guess what Bai Yutang was thinking, it was just to wear something!It's nothing, he looked at it after getting dressed, and then gave it to Bai Yutang.
Fifth Lord came over with a smile, and hung the jade flute directly on the left belt. "How much is it, shopkeeper?"
The shopkeeper thought for a while, "30 taels."
so expensive!Zhan Zhao bit his lip and thought, 30 taels!My monthly salary is only ten taels of silver.
Fifth Master didn't say much, took out an ingot of gold and put it on the cabinet.
"Master, you don't need so much!" The shopkeeper said in surprise after taking a bite of the gold.
Bai Yutang ignored him, and pulled the cat out of the store.
The shopkeeper stood at the door, opened his mouth wide and watched the two young masters go away, and immediately said to a few shop assistants: "Closed, closed, let's all go home for the holidays!" Today's business has earned a month's worth. The money is gone, and the shopkeeper is happy.
The night pearl was shining with fluorescence, the jade flute was dangling under the belt, Bai Yutang touched it, smiled and raised his eyes to show off.And Zhan Zhao was looking at Bai Yutang's jade pendant hanging on his left belt.
Master Wu blocked it with his hand, "Mao'er, you're not thinking about taking the jade flute back now, are you? I won't give it to you!"
Zhan Zhao smiled and turned his head to the left to glance at him.If you want to take it back, I took it a long time ago, why should I give it to you!
Seeing that the cat just stared at him, then smiled and remained silent, Bai Yutang took off the jade pendant hanging on the right: "Cat."
The bright white jade pendant with light-colored flower spikes dangled in front of his eyes, Zhan Zhao turned his head to the left to look at his smiling face: "What are you going to do?"
"Help me put it away!" The fifth master pulled Zhan Zhao's hand a little domineeringly, and then stuffed the white jade pendant into his hand.
"When did you buy this?" I only saw him buying a pendant in the store just now!Zhan Zhao opened his mouth, "Yutang, you take the sheep by the hand!"
Mao'er's words are funny, and the expression with wide eyes is even more interesting, Fifth Master laughed out loud: "How could Master do such a thing, jade pendant is my personal belonging!"
Hearing that it was Yutang's belongings, Zhan Zhao naturally didn't dare to keep it, and hurriedly returned the jade pendant to him, "Why do you leave such an important thing to me for safekeeping?" The white mouse is sure to tease him.
Bai Yutang didn't take the jade pendant, and pushed Zhan Zhao's hand back. I really don't know if the cat really doesn't understand or it's fake!Master took his flute as a token, so naturally I have to give him something!Fifth Master stared slightly: "Of course important things should be kept by important people!" This was a bit of a joke, but it was more sincere.
Zhan Zhao immediately blushed a little because of his words, and touched the jade pendant lightly with his fingers, Zhan Zhao looked down, and saw the word 'jade' engraved on both sides of the pure white and flawless jade pendant.I believe this is indeed Yutang's item, if he insists on keeping it for himself, just keep it!What Zhan Zhao was thinking, he stuffed the jade pendant into his arms: "It's gone, you can't blame me!"
Wu Ye smiled when he heard this, what a silly cat!The fireworks are still going off, but the sound is not as loud as before.Knowing that Zhan Zhao really relaxed today and didn't worry about the affairs of the government, Bai Yutang was very happy.Thinking of going to Jingzhao tomorrow to solve the case and getting up early, it doesn't matter to him, but he really hopes that Mao'er can rest more, Fifth Master said: "Mao'er, let's go back!"
Zhan Zhao nodded, but he didn't understand why White Mouse, who always liked to join in the fun, suddenly said that he was going back, seeing that he still had a smile on his face, he didn't ask any questions!It is indeed not too late, I will go to Jingzhao tomorrow with enough energy.
The two returned to the White Mansion, and as soon as they entered the gate, they saw a deep purple firework blooming on the roof, and the two couldn't help but look up to the sky.After the flower arrangement is the front yard of the main hall, the fireworks are released from here.
Seeing that everyone was there, Bai Yutang shouted, "Zhen'er, why don't you let Uncle Wu come back!" Lu Zhen squinted her eyes, covered her ears with one hand, and waved to Bai Yutang with the other.
Taking advantage of the moment when the fireworks were not released, the two came to the front of the main hall in a flash.
The slight smell of gunpowder permeated the air, and the faces of several servants waiting aside showed festive smiles.
Bai Yutang looked around for a few times, then walked up to Bai Jintang and asked, "Where's Master?"
Bai Jintang retracted the realization of watching the fireworks, and returned with a smile: "You know Master doesn't like excitement, so he went to rest in the backyard!" After speaking, Bai Jintang continued: "Master will go to Jingzhao with you tomorrow."
Fifth Master nodded, the master was bored, and his going would be helpful to solve the case, and then he stood beside Zhan Zhao.
Han Zhang and Jiang Ping stood side by side. Han Zhang looked at the fifth brother and frowned slightly.Then he walked over and patted Bai Yutang on the shoulder: "You come with me!"
Jiang Ping naturally knew what the second brother was going to do, so he panicked at the moment, walked over and grabbed Han Zhang's hand: "Second brother!"
Han Zhang glanced at Lu Fang and the others who were still some distance away from them, and said softly, "You too!" Although the voice was soft, it was in a shouting tone!
Jiang Ping was standing behind Zhan Zhao, so he made a look at the fifth younger brother, but Zhan Zhao couldn't see him.
"Cat, I have something to say to my second brother." Bai Yutang whispered in Zhan Zhao's ear.This action made Han Zhang frown even deeper, Jiang Ping was helpless, and the fifth brother didn't know how to restrain himself!
Zhan Zhao looked at Han Zhang and nodded: "Second brother, you go first." Zhan Zhao said with a smile.
Zhan Zhao usually doesn't have any idea when he calls himself that way, but now he really doesn't know what to say when he calls Han Zhang like that.He just nodded, and Jiang Ping and Bai Yutang quietly turned left from the alleyway of the main hall and entered the corridor of the west wing.
Fifth Master watched Han Zhang push open the door of his own room, and thought: Second brother is going to say something big to him!
The three entered Han Zhang's room, and Jiang Ping closed the door deliberately.
The fifth master glanced at the fourth brother, then looked back at Han Zhang who had just sat down: "What's the matter with the second brother?"
Sitting at the table, Han Zhang moved his lips slightly, closing them again and again, and then he said in a heartbeat: "Old Wu, tell the truth to my brother, what is your relationship with Zhan Zhao!" Once he said this, he could never come back Seeing how the fifth brother ate mooncakes today, he already had a certain degree of certainty in his heart, but he still had such a little bit of hope.
Bai Yutang paused, the second elder brother would ask such words, he must know something, not sure if the fourth elder brother said it, the fifth master turned his head to look at Jiang Ping who came to him.
Jiang Ping glared: "Look at what fourth brother is doing! Who told you to flirt with Kitten Zhan in front of second brother's door this morning! You even said that this life is gone, how would your second brother know!"
Fifth Master thought about it, he didn't know that the second brother's room would be in the west wing, let alone that the second brother would be there!
Bai Yutang didn't answer his question. Hearing Jiang Ping's words, Han Zhang slapped the table: "Old Wu, you're not too young, how could you do such a thing! That Zhan Zhao is a man!" He and Bai Yutang are not biological brothers, but after living for so long, it is impossible to say that they have no feelings for each other. Everyone in the family does not regard the fifth child as a treasure.But now, Han Zhang really can't accept this matter for a while. If someone else has a habit of cutting off his sleeves, he wouldn't say anything, but this is his fifth brother!
What is this kind of thing!Bai Yutang raised his head: "I like him only because he is Zhan Zhao, whether he is a man or a woman, I don't care!" As long as it's an upright cat that only knows to be for others, a silly and cute cat will do!
Han Zhang's teeth were shaking, his face turned blue, "Do you know that it's unreasonable for a man to fall in love with each other! You..." Bai Yutang knelt down without saying a word, Han Zhang couldn't help it Not gagged anymore.
Jiang Ping hurried up: "Fifth brother, get up quickly!" This man has gold under his knees, how can he kneel down so easily, not to mention that he is still the fifth brother who has been proud of him since he was a child!
The fifth master shook his head with a wry smile, kowtowed to Jiang Ping, and said, "Little brother, thank you for your understanding of me and Maoer!" Then he turned to Han Zhang, "I don't ask my second brother for approval, I just ask my second brother to understand me. , little brother has nothing to ask for in this life, but I can’t let go of Zhan Zhao!” He only has affection for his dead wife Fan Qian, and more of an apology, but he loves Zhan Zhao, so how can he let go of Zhan Zhao? Gotta do it!
Lao Wu’s words came from the bottom of his heart, Han Zhang could feel it, and Jiang Ping blinked at the side, telling him to stop talking, but... “I don’t know if Zhan Zhao has any brothers.” , but how could his family allow him to do this! Let alone you have Yunrui who can refill your incense, have you ever thought about how Zhan Zhao's family feels!"
The cat didn't even know that he had a son, but he believed that the cat wouldn't mind!As for the cat's mother, of course I have to go with him! "None of these can stop me and the cat!"
Han Zhang also felt uncomfortable seeing him kneeling in front of him, "Get up! Get out!" Nothing can stop him. Hearing this, Han Zhang knew that it would be useless to say more!
Bai Yutang got up, opened the door, walked out and closed the door behind him.
