The splendid years of a talented lady

Chapter 132 Crazy Price (1)
The jade hands clasped in front of her were covered with purple-red Dan Kou, which attracted people's attention at once, and people couldn't help but marvel, this woman gave birth to a pair of good hands!
The pale pink cloak hung down from her arms, fluttering as she walked, which set off the tenderness of a flowery woman.

"This is?" Su Xiazhi didn't speak, but stared at her carefully with interest. Xiao Qingmei's face was flushed and her almond eyes looked at the woman opposite, and then turned her direction. Looking at Xiao Deng, the hall master asked softly: "Brother Deng, stop, let's greet the guests first."

"Not busy, not busy!" Hall Master Xiao Deng said a few words not to be busy, and then he felt that something was wrong, after all, the talented lady was still standing there.

"Hehe! This is not an outsider." He had no choice but to smooth things over for himself, turned his head and smiled and asked Su Xiazhi: "My father once praised that my younger siblings are the best talented women here, so brother Yu would like to make things difficult for my younger siblings, but do you know this girl?"

"This is really embarrassing for me." Su Xiazhi pointed at Hall Master Xiao Deng with his fingertips and said with a chuckle: "It's endless, let me guess Miss An's identity when you come up, it's not embarrassing." ."

In Ping County, there is no other woman who is educated and has printed books with silver except for the young lady of Anfu.In addition, Hall Master Xiao Deng next to him looked at the woman with small eyes.Su Xiazhi could figure out who she was even with her toes.

Jing Jing revealed her identity after hearing her words, and couldn't help but take a closer look at Su Xiazhi, but she still didn't remember where she had seen this woman, and she was recognized as one of the best talented women by scholars, it shouldn't be easy!
Out of this consideration, she first bowed to Su Xiazhi: "Excuse me for my poor eyesight, I don't know my sister, please forgive me!"

Hall Master Xiao Deng, who was about to speak next to this elder sister's call, shut up again.His face darkened slightly.

"You call me sister?" Su Xiazhi felt funny in her heart, and her mouth really opened as she wanted: "I'm Su Xiazhi."

"Su Xiazhi..." Quiet repeated the name softly with lowered eyes, a feeling of discomfort rose in her heart and was suppressed by her, and meeting Su Xiazhi's eyes again, she still smiled and said: "So It's Sister Su, your masterpiece has been widely spread in Ping County during this time, and my father also asked Brother Min about my sister on her birthday."

When she didn't know who the woman on the opposite side was, Quiet said "sister" smoothly, but when she knew that the other party was "that woman", she called "sister" with a little reluctance.

The reason is self-evident.

In that era and society, if she didn't want to be a concubine, would a woman be willing to call the man she liked the wife and elder sister?
At this time, both An Jing and Su Xiazhi were thinking about one question: how did they meet her here!

But after all, he saluted himself first, so Su Xiazhi had no choice but to return the salute: "Mr. Meng An praised, a few random songs are really nothing, I am ashamed."

What she said was nondescript, while saying that she was ashamed of others' praise, and at the same time saying that those few poems were just written for fun by herself, I don't know if she was being modest or showing off.

"..." Praise the other party for his literary talents?Quiet and not reconciled.How about some more small talk?She wasn't in the mood again.So she gave another salute to Su Xiazhi and said goodbye: "I've been in a hurry for a while, I haven't been close to each other, let's get together sometime when I have free time, and I will definitely have fun writing poems and painting!"

"Please go ahead." Seeing that the other party was about to leave, Su Xiazhi hurriedly made a statement. As for writing poems and paintings?I am so busy that I can't wait to give birth to four hands and four legs, who has time to talk nonsense with you!

Said a few words indifferently, the two women who met each other for the first time said goodbye with smiles, and Hall Master Xiaodeng nodded and bowed, and the third grandson went out to send his "dream lover" Su Xiazhi to himself He went into the backyard of Dianzangshutang to find Mr. Xiucai.

As for quietness, she felt that it was not worth her troubles.She believes in talent.

The backyard of the study hall is square, surrounded by houses on three sides, and people can be seen busy in the house from the outside.

There was a special smell mixed with the smell of wood in the air in the yard. Su Xiazhi guessed that it was probably the smell of printing ink.

"Little friend!" Mr. Xiucai's voice came from the side, and Su Xiazhi saw him as soon as he turned his head.

He had already taken off his long-sleeved long gown, which was originally skinny, and only wore a simple long-sleeved long gown with the sleeves rolled up. His skinny figure looked like a crane!

"Scholar!" Su Xiazhi saluted him first.

"Come and take a look!" The scholar father-in-law waved a two-inch-thick wooden board in his hand: "There is no other place where this engraving can be made so well except for my collection hall!"

Two of the carvers in Dianzang Shutang were introduced to Deng Heng by An Huaiyuan.He is a well-known craftsman in the imperial capital.That's why he dared to say it with such confidence.

"Come in!" Seeing Su Xiazhi walking to the door, Xiucai Gong stopped and didn't enter, so he had to call her in again.

"Isn't it good?" She knew that outsiders were not allowed to enter the kitchen of the restaurant casually, and she was afraid that the printing workshop also had the same rules, and Mr. Xiucai, as the owner, would be criticized for knowingly committing crimes.

"Wait a minute." Mr. Xiucai stopped and thought for a while and said, "It's true that you are not allowed to enter here!"

"Oh." Su Xiazhi nodded in understanding.After all, a line has a line of rules.

Mr. Xiucai plunged into the dark room and disappeared, presumably to get the engraved block.

Su Xiazhi waited outside with great interest, and also wanted to see how the printed paper would look.

Hearing the sound of brisk footsteps behind her, she immediately turned her head: "I can't wait!"

With a sound of "哐!", a young junior looked at Su Xiazhi standing in the yard in horror with his arms folded. A pair of loosely woven cotton trousers!

"Don't come out! There's a woman outside!" He yelled heart-piercingly, then turned around and ran back into the house as if fleeing.

From the top to the bottom of the Dianzang Shutang, there are men, and the scholar who comes in and out every day has long forgotten this.

Seeing that Su Xiazhi hesitated not to follow him in, he remembered that it was summer now, and most of the young men working in the workshop were bare-chested and only wearing underpants.
