397 The old horse stumbled
From the bottom of my heart, this house is very good, the design is ingenious, the materials are high-quality, whether it is the layout or the details, ingenuity can be seen everywhere, Lu Shu lives here, he will definitely not be wronged, Cui Yuan also likes it.
However, Cui Yuan's mood was a little inexplicably irritable and unhappy.
Although he acted on orders, Cui Yuan also had the idea of inspecting Zheng Peng's house in advance, it was best to establish his authority again, he was full of confidence before he came, and he was ready to pick thorns, but now he was shocked, and after entering the door, he didn't know this, he hadn't seen it like that, like a dirt bun who had never seen the world.
Although Zheng Peng introduced it patiently and enthusiastically, in Cui Yuan's eyes, he felt that Zheng Peng was the same as showing off to himself.
Especially when Zheng Peng introduced some objects that he didn't know, Cui Yuan had a feeling of being underestimated.
"How to solve the problem of drinking water, is it to use the water from the well or the water that has been brought in?" Cui Yuan suddenly asked.
Zheng Peng responded: "It is to use the water spring water in the mountain, the water quality is sweet, and it is led down with a pipe, of course, two wells are also dug in the house, and if it rains and other reasons, there is also a backup water source." ”
The two walked and chatted, and before they knew it, they came to a room, the room was not big, but it was elegantly furnished, with flowers planted in the corners and window names, and as soon as they walked into the room, they smelled the fragrance of flowers.
The furnishings inside are a little strange, there is a wooden shelf on the left after entering the door, there is a basin on the shelf, but there is no water in the basin, there is a round bucket near the corner, this bucket is different from the usual one, the top is large and the bottom is small, and there is a small wooden box next to it.
There was a small half bucket of water in the strange wooden barrel, Cui Yuan casually opened the wooden box next to him and found that it was also full of water.
"Elder Cui, let me introduce you, this is..."
Before he finished speaking, Cui Yuan interrupted rudely: "Isn't it just a water tank and a bucket filled with water, nothing special." ”
While speaking, Cui Yuangu rolled up his sleeves, put his hands into the bucket, and said while washing his face with water: "Yes, it is very convenient to get water in this way, and the water is also cool, but the bucket is a little low, and it is not good to bend over." ”
Always listening to Zheng Peng's introduction, Cui Yuan was a little impatient, seeing the water tank, and then seeing that there was only a small half bucket of water, he "guessed" that one was water storage and the other was water, so he interrupted Zheng Peng's words and didn't need him to introduce him.
In order to prove that he really understood, Cui Yuan used it on the spot.
After washing his face with water, Cui Yuan looked left and right, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Jade button paper? You don't even have a champa? ”
Huang San's eyes widened, his mouth opened wide, and he stammered a little, "Cui... Cui Langjun, this"
Before he was halfway through his words, Zheng Peng immediately interrupted: "Huang San, you Tian Shenu, you haven't prepared the champa to wipe your face, what are you doing, go get it, and look back at how I clean you up." ”
Huang Sanleng paused, he was not afraid of being scolded, and there was a hint of forcibly suppressed smile in his eyes, and he hurriedly responded: "Yes, yes, yes, young master, the little one will go." ”
It's so funny, it's obviously the toilet bowl made by the young master, and the bucket where Cui Yuan washed his hands is obviously a "bucket", but he doesn't know how to pretend to be a bath plate, and he still thinks of bending over, when he thinks of the big man of the Boling Cui clan and the dignified imperial history scooping water and washing his face in the pit, Huang San almost didn't laugh.
Zheng Peng strained his face, looking like he was angry at his subordinates, but he actually wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so he held it down, for fear that he couldn't help laughing for a while, and then he was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to end it.
In ancient times, the thatched toilet was built far away, mainly because of the fear of smelling the smell, usually fine, in case of rain or cold weather, it is a torment to go to the thatched house in the middle of the night, you can also use a portable bedpan and toilet, always feel that it is not clean and hygienic enough, Zheng Peng built a flush toilet by himself, so that there is no need to walk around.
Cui Yuan saw that the toilet had a small half of water, which was actually water stored in a U-shaped pipe, which was used to prevent odor and prevent the toilet from pouring out the smell, but he didn't expect Cui Yuan to be so "cute", he ran to the toilet to wash his face, and the action was too fast, Zheng Peng couldn't stop it.
When Zheng Peng came back to his senses, it was difficult to say anything more, so he could only let him "enjoy" the coolness.
Old boy, let you pretend, now the old horse has stumbled, it's time for you!
Zheng Peng's stomach was about to twitch with laughter.
After a ridiculous "accident", Cui Yuan admonished Zheng Peng from time to time in the tone of an elder, Zheng Peng did not refute, and said yes again and again while snickering, and Huang San next to him twitched his face from time to time.
This guy also endured it and didn't dare to laugh.
Cui Yuan walked in front, not caring about Zheng Peng and Huang San's facial expressions, but his henchman Huai'an, looking at Zheng Peng and Huang San thoughtfully.
When the group came to the pavilion in the pond in the back garden, Zheng Peng looked up at the weather and said, "Old Cui, it's almost time for dinner, I don't know what dishes you like, I'll let you do it?" ”
Everyone who comes is a guest, and if you want to marry Lu Shu back, you have to nod this old boy.
He didn't like him, but he was a Cui Lao, with a charming smile on his face, Zheng Peng felt that he was a little hypocritical, and he was also a bit like a "cheap bone", but when he remembered the experience of being with Lu Shu, he still endured it silently.
Lu Shu didn't know how many grievances he suffered in Cui Mansion for himself, especially Cui Yuan threatened Lu Shu with his own safety, and made Lu Shu do a lot of things he didn't like.
When Cui Yuan heard this, he didn't speak, he sat straight on the stone table in the pavilion, and said leisurely after half a sound: "The old man has eaten all the delicacies of the mountains and seas in the world since he was a child. ”
"With the aged osmanthus brew, I don't know what Cui Lao thinks?"
"That's a good idea." Cui Yuan said with some arrogance.
Zheng Peng poured tea for Cui Yuan and said, "Cui Lao, please use tea, I will order the kitchen to serve a few plates of braised pork to eat first, and eat while eating teppanyaki, okay?" ”
"I heard that the braised pork you made was very delicious, it was in short supply back then, and the teppanyaki you made was also very famous. Cui Yuan said as if talking to himself.
Zheng Peng's old face twitched, and the blue tendons on his forehead appeared, but he quickly recovered his mood and said calmly: "It is the honor of the younger generation to be able to cook for Cui Lao." ”
kindly invited him to dinner, and took the initiative to ask him what he wanted to eat, Cui Yuan was good, first flaunted his identity and status, and then opened his mouth to say that he wanted to eat cheap food, pointed out the braised pork and teppanyaki that Zheng Peng relied on, and also specified that Zheng Peng would get it himself, clearly hinting at the gap between himself and Zheng Peng.
The sound outside the strings is obvious: even if you have some achievements, even if you have built a good house, don't forget your humble status as a cheap person, and don't forget that you are a high climber, and if you can come here, it will give you face.
"Go ahead." Cui Yuan waved his hand, as if he was the master here.
As soon as Zheng Peng left, Huang San couldn't sit still, and ordered the subordinates next to him to serve Cui Yuan well, and ran to help Zheng Peng himself.
"Young master, this old man is too much of a bully." Huang San was upset for Zheng Peng.
"There's no way, who told people to pinch the weakness of Young Master Ben" Zheng Pengmi looked at it and said a little unhappily: "Wait, this account will be recovered sooner or later." ”
"It's useless to complain, quick, go to the kitchen to see if there is any fresh pork offal, if you don't send someone to buy it soon, I'll go cut a few plates of braised pork and deal with it first."
"Yes, young master."
Zheng Peng and Huang San left, Huai An said a little unhappily: "Lang Jun, this Zheng Peng is a little rude, the Zheng family in Yuancheng doesn't know the height of the sky, Lang Jun is here, and the elders of the Zheng family didn't come to say hello, it's really rude." ”
"These rural contempts are so vulgar, let him go, the old man has a lot, don't care about him, worry about them, but lose his worth." Cui Yuan said proudly.
Huai'an said yes again and again when he heard this, looked left and right, and then said a little anxiously: "Lang Jun, the little one has a little stomach pain, and he wants to go to the thatched house." ”
After coming to Yuancheng, he hadn't found a chance to go to the toilet, Huai'an was so anxious that he couldn't do anything, and hurriedly asked Cui Yuan.
"Go now, go back quickly." Cui Yuan said succinctly.
"The little one understands."
Huang San wanted to look for it himself, but after turning around for a while, he didn't find the thatched house, and finally saw a subordinate, and hurriedly shouted, "Come here." ”
"What do you command?" The man stepped forward with a smile.
"Where is the thatched house hidden here, I haven't found it after looking around." Huai'an said a little depressed.
