Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

Chapter 2 The first sight of Bai Susu

The old man in the blue shirt was a little worried. He picked up a pen and picked out two incoherent sentences. He sent the servant to take a note to other bookstores to see if there were any heavy sentences. Select, the verification is completed, it is considered a pass.

While Su Chen was waiting in front of the book shed, someone outside suddenly said something, and the little lady of the Bai family had also arrived.

"Where! Where is it?"

Many men heard the words, turned around and rushed over.

Seeing such strange phenomena, Su Chen couldn't help but ask the people outside, "Which little lady of the Bai family?"

"Apart from the little lady of the Bai family who is famous for making pottery in the south of the Yangtze River, who else is the little lady of the Bai family who has such great influence?"

"Bai Susu, why is she so popular!" Su Chen was stunned for a moment.

The old man in the green shirt looked at him suspiciously and said, "This young man, are you new here? This Bai Sususheng has a beautiful and beautiful appearance, and has a very high business ability. A giant, rich enough to rival the country, whoever can marry her will not instantly become a rich son-in-law, and I don't know which bastard can have such good luck!

There seemed to be some residual impressions in Su Chen's mind, but there was another piece of news that surprised him. Bai Susu seemed to have an engagement with him as a baby girl. In other words, the business genius and beauty of Runzhou, who used to be him. fiancee? (Whether this book is an essay, guess what?)

Lucky bastard? ?

I don't know why, but I feel harsh when I hear it. Does it have anything to do with me!

All of Su Chen's ancestors studied medicine, and his father was the imperial physician of the Tang state. He was considered a famous family in Runzhou. The Su family and the Bai family had a close relationship. Seek medicine for the Bai family.

Especially 15 years ago, when Su Mingyuan was in Runzhou, Bai Fengxian had an illness and fainted, which almost killed him. It was Su Mingyuan who rescued him with his own hands. Therefore, the old man of the Bai family was grateful and betrothed his granddaughter Bai Susu to Su Mingyuan. His son, Su Chen, made a baby kiss.

That year, Su Chen was three years old, and Bai Susu was only two years old.

Later, the Su family became famous because of their great achievements in treating the plague, and Baohetang became famous. Su Mingyuan was recommended to the palace to accept the gift and became a palace physician. The family moved to Jinling to live, but this marriage was not broken. Every two years, Su Mingyuan brought his family back to Runzhou to worship his ancestors. He would always visit Bai's house and let Su Chen and Bai Susu meet.

However, because Su Chen was a little more playful when he was young, and his aptitude was mediocre, he had neither learned superb medical skills, nor was he a novice in reading, and was gradually disliked by Bai Susu.

As she grows older, Bai Susu grows more and more beautiful, and has a firm personality, can read and write, understands the overall situation, and has business acumen. At the age of 13, she was able to independently manage the account and manage the account room.

On the other hand, Su Chen didn't make much progress. Instead, he contracted the bad habits of Jinling's playful children, fighting cock-fighting lackeys and idling. Bai Susu became disgusted after hearing about it, so he avoided it.

The good times did not last long. After Su Mingyuan was involved in the sudden death of the prince, the Su family in Jinling collapsed one day, and Su Chen was brought back to the ancestral house in Runzhou by an old servant. In recent years, there was no source of livelihood, and the things in the ancestral house were constantly sold.

This marriage was put on hold like this, Su Chen didn't ask anyone to propose marriage, and the Bai family was silent.

At this moment, Su Chen looked over there, and looked over at Bai Susu, who was surrounded by a group of people. There were some daughters of rich squires, and some scholars and scholars of poetry clubs, as well as children of nobles. Ordinary people don't dare to get too close, they all watch from a distance, these young masters and young ladies are not something they can provoke.

Bai Susu was wearing a plain white neon skirt, which was joined from top to bottom, and tied her unbearably slender waist with a light grass green brocade belt, making her look slim.

His long, jet-black hair was combed into the shape of a maid who had not left the court, and a plum blossom jasper hairpin was inserted, which looked simple and elegant, and had a noble temperament.

Delicate facial features, melon-seed face, willow-leaf eyebrows, bright eyes and white teeth, when talking and laughing, it makes people feel like a spring breeze, and when the eyes are full, it gives a sincere feeling to the people around. I have to say that he has some talent in communication.

Su Chen looked at the group of people as if they were going to pass by the book shed, so the distance was getting closer and the view became much clearer.

A few dozen meters away, Su Chen carefully looked at Bai Susu, and his heart was a little complicated. Although this wealthy daughter had a baby relationship with him, the Su family was in decline and did not think that if he came to the door, the Bai family would admit this marriage.

Otherwise, if you marry such a white and rich beauty, you will be able to solve life problems in an instant, and you will have to fight for a few years, and you will immediately become a winner in life.

Dude, wake up!Su Chen felt that this kind of good thing was unrealistic. It was estimated that if he walked on the front foot, he would be beaten to death by the servants in the Bai family's house.

If the Bai family really thought about their old relationship, they wouldn't ignore it like this.

It's better to be awake as a human being, a faint smile overflowed from the corner of Su Chen's mouth, stop daydreaming.

Not even a daydream!

At this moment, Bai Susu seemed to feel something in her heart. When he looked around, he saw Su Chen who was dozens of meters away. He was stunned for a moment, and then he recognized him, and he couldn't help frowning.

Although Bai Susu hadn't officially met Su Chen in the past two years, she had seen Su Chen's appearance and behavior secretly in private, and had an impression in her heart, which was not very good.

At this time, in front of the book shed, the [-]- or [-]-year-old boy ran back and shook his head. The old man Qingshan was relieved, and with a smile on his face, he politely said to Su Chen, "Young Master Su has passed the test. Reaching the middle level, it is gratifying, this is fifty wen, please take it!"

Su Chen pouted, thinking that this old bangzi is a bit tricky. Although the word Liu Yong cannot be called a top-notch work, it can also be included in the masterpiece of [-] Tang and Song poems, so it is worth [-] words. , do you know the goods?

If it weren't for the lack of money now, Su Chen really wanted to grab this handful of copper coins and throw them at them, don't use the stinky coins to humiliate literati's poems!

Forget it, eating is important, what time is wasted with the old guy.

Su Chen silently apologized for Liu Sanbian's words in his heart, took the fifty papers, put them in his pocket, and said goodbye.

This scene happened to be seen by Bai Susu, suspicious in her heart, and whispered a few words in the ear of Xiaotong, the close maid, Xiaotong nodded, her eyes flashed smartly, she looked in the direction of the book shed, and then pulled away and squeezed past.

After Su Chen took the copper plate, he had already left the book shed and walked north along the lake. There were few people and the environment was elegant. He could also return to the West City Gate. He did not intend to go back to the lively area.

Now that he has money, Su Chen feels that he should calm down and think about life. No, think about how to use these fifty words to solve the difficulties of survival.

During the Tang and Song Dynasties, copper coins were the main currency. Gold and silver, like pearls, belonged to precious treasures and were not used for currency circulation. However, sometimes, it was inconvenient to carry a huge amount of copper coins when traveling among the rich and powerful. Gold and silver will be used for settlement and transactions.

According to the old system of the Tang Dynasty, one tael of gold is equal to ten taels of silver, one tael of silver is equal to one tael of money, and one thousand wen is the same. This is still practiced in Jiangnan and Song Dynasty.

At the current price level and purchasing power of the Southern Tang Dynasty, one penny can buy a sesame cake, which is equivalent to one dollar in later generations, two cents can buy a pound of corn, and rice costs three cents.

Su Chen returned along the way he came, like the poetry club activities of literary and artistic youths outside the city, the friendship between marriageable men and women, he was not interested for the time being, walking in a bustling street under Yangpeng Mountain, looking around, looking for suitable for him. Business.

At the foot of Yangpeng Mountain, the street is like a market. There are fixed restaurants, inns, teahouses, shops, green brick paving, and high lanterns. It extends to the halfway of the mountain. On the top, there are Dongyuebee Temple built in the Tang Dynasty, Lingyun Temple, etc., some young believers, men and women, will also go to the temple to burn incense, seeking marriage, peace, and careers.

Su Chen looked at the shops on both sides of the aisle, selling silk and silk cloth, rouge gouache, ink, paper, inkstone, jujube oranges, melons and fruits, wine brewed salt, spring biscuit fruits and many other daily necessities and consumables, which were sold by the shops here.

This was the era of the late Southern Tang Dynasty and the early Northern Song Dynasty, and the materials were not abundant enough, but here in Runzhou, there was no shortage.

Because a few years ago, Hou Zhou, under the leadership of Chai Rong, swallowed the thirteen prefectures of Huainan in Jiangbei of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the territory was reduced by one-third. All were lost, and only the land in the south of the Yangtze River survived. Therefore, Runzhou became the second largest city in the Southern Tang Dynasty. It is also the northern gate, where the Yangtze River meets the canal. Also many.

Su Chen ate a bowl of Wang Po miscellaneous vegetable soup on the side of the road, bought three Hejia cheese cakes, spent five cents, ate two cakes to fill his stomach, and brought a cake for the girls at home. , and then entered the city through the West Gate, and walked towards Lifang Alley where his house was located.

In front of the river bank willows.

"Miss, Su Chen just wrote a song in the book shed, exchanged fifty cents with the old gentleman, and took the money away." Xiaotong came back and told Bai Susu.

"Su Chen, write lyrics to exchange money?" Bai Susu was stunned, and when she heard the news from her maid Xiaotong, she felt a little dazed, which was different from what she expected.

Originally thought that Su Chen approached the person from the Xiangyun Pavilion to inquire if the Qing courtiers of the Xiangyun Pavilion had come to spring today, to touch flowers and provoke butterflies. , can he write good lyrics?

Bai Susu seemed to have discovered a very interesting thing, and suddenly became interested and asked, "Have you ever bought the lyrics?"

"I bought it, but that old man is not a thing. He even asked for my usual money, saying that it is a rare masterpiece, without any counter-offer." Xiaotong angrily took out a piece of paper, on which Su Chen wrote in his own hand. 's words.

After Bai Susu took it, she glanced casually with a bit of curiosity and contempt.

"Longshou Yunfei, the riverside in the evening, the smoke and waves are all over the eyes for a long time. When I look at the Guanhe River, it is desolate, a thousand miles of clear autumn, can't bear to stare? Yaoyao Shenjing, Fairy Yingying, don't come to Jinzi."

Bai Susu recited a few words silently, her eyes getting brighter and brighter. Although her talent for writing poetry is not high, her reading ability is still good. After reading it in one breath, she even thought it was an excellent poem. , has repeatedly engaged in poetry club activities, and many new poems have been published, but it is difficult to find a long and short word comparable to this one.

"Is this really written by Su Chen?" After Bai Susu read it, she was a little suspicious. She privately sent someone to inquire, Su Chen should be mediocre.

Xiaotong asked: "Yeah, there is his name on it, but the name left is Su Yixuan, not using his real name, Miss, is the word written so well?"

Bai Susu sighed lightly: "It's not just a sight, if you really have the ability to write the lyrics of this song, I am afraid that you can also bear the name of a talented person."

"Who, Su Chen is a genius?" Xiaotong didn't know why, but after listening to it, she always felt the urge to urinate, no, it was a smile!

At this moment, a beautiful, quirky, long-legged girl walked over. She was dressed in a scholar's robe. She was dressed as a man, but her skin was white and proud, her nose was small, and her lips were crimson. , it is still difficult to conceal the woman's demeanor and appearance.

"Sister Susu, the activities of the poetry club over there are about to start. Come with me. Hey, what is this? Did you prepare the lyrics?" The paper was snatched away.

"Longshou Yunfei, the riverside in the evening, the smoke waves are all over the eyes for a long time"

"It's okay to read, Sister Susu, did you write it, you want to join the Poetry Club and win the name of a talented girl?" the girl with long legs asked.

Bai Susu concealed her embarrassment and smiled slightly: "I won't mention it by chance! Qingqing, leave it to Xiaotong to put it away."

This long-legged girl is named Peng Qingqing. She is the daughter of Lord Zhizhou of Runzhou, and she is a good friend with Bai Susu.

However, she is not interested in Wen Mo and Nvhong, but loves to practice martial arts, dance swords and sticks, and is considered a barbaric daughter in Runzhou City.On weekdays, I can chat with Bai Susu and listen to her words more.

In fact, Peng Qingqing didn't read the words well or not, and he was not very interested, so he handed it to Xiaotong, then took Bai Susu's arm, and walked quickly towards the place where the poetry club was active, urging as he walked, "Go. Go, hurry over there, there are a lot of scholars and talents gathered there, don't you usually like to read, but this time most of the talents from Runzhou have come, you choose and choose a husband, so as not to be caught by that Ding family Erlang again Forced to marry."
