Li is Fairy maiden...... very wealthy?” The land miss is startled, at once the eye sparkles to shine. “欸……李仙子……很富裕吗?”陆姑娘一怔,旋即眼睛闪闪发亮。 It seems like she misunderstood. 看来她误会了。 Li Zhibai feels is very gently temperate , moreover before put on washed the Daoist robe of corner blanch...... one to pass shortly, really did not seem like any wealthy female. 李知白给人的感觉很温和、温柔,而且之前穿的还是洗到边角发白的道袍……一眼看过去,真的不像是什么富裕的女子。 However listens to the Big Sister Zhu words, Li Fairy maiden is very fierce. 但是听祝姐姐的话,那李仙子十分厉害啊。 Your this smelly girl, was too realistic, how I...... taught this you.” A Zhu Pingniang heavy line. “你这臭丫头,也太现实了,我……怎么把你教成这样了。”祝平娘一头黑线。 Big Sister Zhu, you, hasn't done accounts?” land Miss curls the lip: Big Sister is the waving the arms about storekeeper, does not know that I can in this building every large or small several hundred for working hard that open mouth? That group of girls are gluttonous and lazy all day, in this year has not even met anything to live...... removes this year the land rent, you really do not think that...... we gained.” 祝姐姐,您不当家,难道还没算过账?”陆姑娘撇嘴:“姐姐做个甩手掌柜,不知道我要为这楼里大大小小几百张嘴的操劳?那群丫头整日好吃懒做,这一年甚至没接什么活……去掉今年租子,你不会真的以为……咱们赚到了吧。” Flower Moon Building girls all rich class/flow oil, but must say in the building, but also has not really gained many. 花月楼姑娘们个个富的流油,但要说楼里,还真没赚多少。 After all, Zhu Pingniang will not exploit the money of girls, they gain many are their, but other Flower Moon Building activities, arrange and wait to want the land miss to come the silver money...... she but is very poor. 毕竟,祝平娘不会剥削姑娘们的银子,她们赚多少都是她们的,可是花月楼其他一切的活动、布置、等等都要陆姑娘来出银钱……她可是穷得很。 Also fostered the avaricious temper on the nature. 也就自然养成了爱财的性子。 Furthermore......” land miss tone: Later, these girls must after all with on Big Sister together Immortal Sect, when the time comes that expense, but can only fall above you, although I do not know that Immortal Sect must spend anything, may see that Young Master is like that busy, many knows the expense not poor.” “再者……”陆姑娘语气顿了一下:“以后,这些丫头总归要和姐姐一起上仙门的吧,到时候那个花销,可就只能落在您头上了,我虽然不知道仙门要花费些什么,可看到公子那般忙碌,多少知道花销不菲。” Xu Chang'an raises Yun Qian very is not easy, every day rushes about, the beforehand time land miss also listened to Zhu Pingniang saying that daily barbola work of Xu Chang'an on mountain dry/does- naturally, the land miss was not clear, Xu Chang'an so-called working, was listens to bent/tune Er, to play chess and grow flowers. 徐长安养一个云浅就很不容易了,每天奔波,以前的时候陆姑娘也听祝平娘说过,徐长安在山上每日有一堆活要干-当然,陆姑娘不清楚,徐长安所谓的干活,就是听曲儿、下棋、养花。 In brief, Young Master Xu was so tired. 总之,徐公子都那么累了。 She later must raise entire Flower Moon Building...... 她以后要养一整个花月楼…… Might as well sold her. 还不如把她卖了呢。 This I, if can grasp Li Fairy maiden thigh sooner, does not know that wants relaxed many.” The land miss eyes eyelash trembled, looks at Zhu Pingniang to wrinkle the nose: Li Fairy maiden looks is a responsible person, Big Sister you, except for not putting to trouble bully the person.” “这我若是能够早些抱住李仙子的大腿,不知道要轻松多少。”陆姑娘眼睫微颤,看着祝平娘皱了皱鼻子:“李仙子一瞧就是个负责的人,不似姐姐你,除了添麻烦就是欺负人。” „......” The Zhu Pingniang corner of the eye twitches, is speechless. “……”祝平娘眼角抽搐,无话可说。 This dead girl, original Li Miss, knows now after A'Bai is a serious rich woman, immediately changes a statement to call Li Xianzile? 这死丫头,本来一口一个李姑娘,现在知道阿白是一个不得了的富婆后,立刻就改口叫李仙子了? Zhu Pingniang vigilant looks at the landing miss, made a fist shook shaking in her front: „ You little keep thinking about A'Bai body that perquisite, 祝平娘警惕的看着陆姑娘,握拳在她的面前晃了晃:“你少惦记阿白身上那点油水, Do not blame me not to warn you......, even if she really does not lack these, but you are a my daughter, the opens the mouth wants the advantage to her, did my face also want? ” What is most essential is...... 别怪我没有警告你啊……就算她真的不缺这些,但你是我的丫头,开口向她要好处,我的脸面还要不要了?”最关键的是…… Zhu Pingniang knows, so long as the land miss is willing tian the face to open the mouth to beg, Li Zhibai is...... after all, in the Li Zhibai eye that will not reject absolutely, the land miss must call her mother's married sister. 祝平娘知晓,只要陆姑娘肯觍着脸开口乞求,李知白是绝对不会拒绝的……毕竟,在李知白眼里,陆姑娘要唤她一声姨娘。 But the favor of land miss must be above after all her. 可陆姑娘的人情终归要算在她头上啊。 Really is strange, since Li Fairy maiden is wealthy, actually cannot I want.” Land miss with a smile. “真是奇怪,那李仙子既然富裕,却不许我去要。”陆姑娘笑吟吟的。 She and Big Sister Zhu are this, sometimes she admits defeat, oneself is sometimes aggrieved, has to have. 她和祝姐姐就是这样的,有时候她吃瘪,有时候自己憋屈,有来有回的。 Why cannot I want.” land Miss thought deeply about a while, later suddenly: „, I understand......, for Big Sister your rare young girl heart, I do not beg to the fairy maiden is.” “为什么不许我要。”陆姑娘思索了一会儿,随后恍然:“哦,我明白了……罢了,为了姐姐你那点难得的少女心,我不向仙子讨要就是。” Probably clear, Zhu Pingniang does not want to owe Li Zhibai, even if little. 大概明白,祝平娘不想欠李知白的,哪怕只有一点点。 Snort......” Zhu Pingniang is enduring to an impulsion of this girl fist, she deeply inspires: Waits for Big Sister I took A'Bai, cultivation resources anything, has not wanted many to have many.” “哼……”祝平娘忍着给这妮子一拳的冲动,她深吸一口气:“等以后姐姐我把阿白拿下了,修行资源什么的,还不是要多少有多少。” „...... land Miss the corner of the eye twitches slightly, no words saying. “……嗯。”陆姑娘眼角微微抽动,没有话说了。 She said that wants the advantage to crack a joke to Li Zhibai, distracts the mood that Zhu Pingniang is angry, actually does not think that...... Big Sister will make of daydream truly. 她说向李知白要好处只是开玩笑、是转移祝平娘生气的情绪,却不想……自家姐姐才是真正会做白日梦的那个。 Takes Li Fairy maiden? 拿下李仙子? land Miss looks that just also pented up anger, but raises Li Zhibai now, the entire eye in shining Zhu Pingniang, cannot bear the sigh. 陆姑娘看着刚刚还生闷气,但是现在一提起李知白,整个眼睛都在放光的祝平娘,忍不住叹息。 Li Fairy maiden do not need to act, oneself Big Sister must be taken. 李仙子都不用出手,自家姐姐就要被拿下了。 When the time comes, let alone wants the advantage, only feared that she and Flower Moon Building girls must compensate. 到时候,别说要好处,只怕连带着她和花月楼的丫头们都要赔进去。 Joke turns over to the joke, Big Sister Zhu...... Li is Fairy maiden so really wealthy?” The land miss is very curious: From the appearance, cannot look.” “玩笑归玩笑,祝姐姐……李仙子真的有那么富裕吗?”陆姑娘十分好奇:“从样貌上,看不出来呢。” In this mortal world the riches and honor others body will have a not being able to say gracefulness and noble, let alone is in Immortal Sect the person? 尘世里富贵人家身上都会有一种说不出的优雅、高贵,更何况是仙门中人? However Li Zhibai......, not only not noble, instead is very gentle, her body that makings are graceful, rather probably the product after time precipitation, steady tranquil for the time being however...... 但是李知白……不仅没有高贵,反而很柔和,她身上那种气质与其说是优雅,不如说像是时间沉淀之后的产物、稳重平静且自然…… Un, is a taoist nun. 嗯,就是一个道姑。 Like a spiritual cultivation in person. 像极了一个修道中人。 Let alone you, I just knew A'Bai initially, she stays for temporary lodging in this mortal world ordinary Daoist temple, every day and they eat the same room food, to do the similar work, to wear the same clothes......” Zhu Pingniang to look the color of recollection: At that time, even if attended to Big Sister saying with me she is now Immortal Cultivation World...... person, I was still unbelievable.” “别说你了,我当初刚认识阿白,她就借住在尘世普通的道观中,每日和他们吃同样的斋食、做同样的工作、穿同样的衣裳……”祝平娘面露回忆之色:“那时候,就算顾姐姐与我说了她是当今修仙界最……的人,我也难以相信。” Was afterward.” Zhu Pingniang remembered oneself to see her collection accidentally, the lip cannot bear tremble two. “可是后来。”祝平娘想起自己偶然间见到她的收藏,嘴唇忍不住颤了两下。 Do not look that the Li Zhibai spirit stones cannot take together, sometimes also needs to refine medicinal pill for Herbs Garden, but that is her unique life style. Really must say the collection, Li Zhibai may be the entire Morning Clouds Sect wealthiest woman- not that. 别看李知白一块灵石都拿不出来,有时候还需要为百草园炼制丹药,但那是她独特的生活方式。真要说收藏,李知白极有可能是整个朝云宗最为富裕的女人-没有之一的那种。 Sect Master is not good, Sect Master is immortal god in the literal sense, do all useless things abandon it to her like the worn-out slippers, the collection......? 掌门都不行,掌门就是字面意义上的仙神,一切无用的东西对她而言都弃之如敝屣,收藏……? How possibly. 怎么可能。 Sect Master will not have any collection, will not have spirit stones, she only cares about dao rhyme, the clothes that wears are Raining Dusk Peak are specially-made. 掌门不会有任何的收藏,也不会有灵石,她只在意道韵,就连穿的衣裳都是暮雨峰特制的。 Now drops out dao rhyme, if really must find a poorest person on Morning Clouds Sect, could not say that is Sect Master. 如今抛下道韵,如果真要在朝云宗上找一个最为贫穷的人,说不得就是掌门 „...... In the final analysis, entire Morning Clouds is Sect Master.” Zhu Pingniang muttered, later was peaceful, she held the hand of land miss: Actually, A'Bai has the sources of some treasures, I can understand that supposed I...... perhaps, my thing will not have further given her in the past.” “嘛……说到底,整个朝云都是掌门的。”祝平娘喃喃说着,随后安静下来,她牵住陆姑娘的手:“其实,阿白有一部分宝物的来源,我是能够理解的,假设我以往都没有更进一步……也许,我的东西也会给她。” Land miss: „......” 陆姑娘:“……” She does not understand what is heard, actually the heart thump, she covers the palm in the Zhu Pingniang hand surface, said in a soft voice: Big Sister said these I not clear...... is not meaningful.” 她听不明白,却心头咯噔一声,她将手掌覆盖在祝平娘的手面上,轻声道:“姐姐说这些我不明白的……没什么意义。” Also yes.” Zhu Pingniang stretches oneself, takes not that proper smile. “也是。”祝平娘伸了个懒腰,重新带上不那么正经的笑容。 If she did not have breakthrough until now realm in the past, is unable to compare the broken then life span boundary, will generally also return to the dust, who own that...... will she treasure house give? 倘若她当年没有突破到如今的境界,无法勘破当时的寿命界限,大抵也会回归尘土了,那……她会将自己的‘宝库’交给谁? Joyous Union Sect? 合欢宗 No, is Li Zhibai. 不,是李知白 She will deliver to Li Zhibai. 她会将一切都交付给李知白 Therefore, the Li Zhibai own collection first does not raise, her old friends...... these looked forward to that her person, does not know many people in the limit at the appointed time, the most precious thing will entrust to her...... 于是,李知白自己的收藏先不提,她那些故人……那些憧憬她的人,不知道有多少人在大限将至时,将最珍贵的东西托付给了她…… Has the sentimental reason, there is such as Profound Sword Division such, after expecting oneself departs, this hidden immortal can Sect much look after...... 这其中有感情的缘故,也有诸如玄剑司那样,期望自己离去后,这位隐仙可以对宗门多多照拂…… Under the accumulation, can this be the big wealth? 积累之下,这会是多大的财富? A'Bai does not care about these external objects, therefore...... Chang'an is the good luck.” Zhu Pingniang snort/hum. “不过阿白不在意这些外物,所以……长安才是好命。”祝平娘哼了一声。 Because Li Zhibai does not care, when Xu Chang'an needs anything, Li Zhibai can without hesitation takes to give him to use the treasure conveniently. 因为李知白不在意,所以当徐长安需要什么,李知白可以毫不犹豫的随手将宝物取出来给他使用。 Pitifully Young Master is not a greedy person.” land Miss nods: Otherwise,...... seems mother to be the same to his attitude on Li Fairy maiden, Young Master should so not be laborious is right.” “可惜公子不是个贪心的人。”陆姑娘点点头:“不然的话,就李仙子对他的态度……好像娘亲一样,公子该不会这么辛苦才对。” Chang'an he always thinks that oneself owes A'Bai is too many, cannot pay off...... is not unless it is absolutely essential willing to make her help.” Zhu Pingniang curls the lip, she looked at one from just to start to look once for a while to here Yun Qian, smiled: But in fact, he owes A'Bai was very difficult to pay off, what owes some also to have again at the worst? A'Bai also looks forward to him unable to pay off.” 长安他总是觉得自己阿白太多,还不清……不到万不得已不愿意让她帮忙。”祝平娘撇嘴,她看了一眼从刚刚开始就时不时看向这边的云浅,笑了笑:“可实际上,他欠阿白的本就很难还清,再多欠一些又有什么大不了的?阿白还巴不得他还不清呢。” Especially...... Zhu Pingniang knows Li Zhibai now regarding Xu Chang'an excessively discrete rebukes oneself very much, even if four sides he really flaunts the youngster spirit to go out to find fault, Li Zhibai will still certainly tolerate him. 尤其是……祝平娘知晓李知白现在对于徐长安的‘过度谨慎’很是自责,就算他真的逞少年意气出去四面找茬,李知白也一定会纵容他。 Assuming that Xu Chang'an can be earnest wants the thing to Li Zhibai, then...... anything, so long as she has, will surely give him. 假设徐长安能够认真下来的向李知白要东西,那么……无论是什么,只要她有,就都一定会给他。 This is the transformation of Li Zhibai. 这就是李知白的转变。 From a severe teacher, turned into the guilty worry directly mother, but middle so-called masters and disciples the relations, acknowledge as teacher have not started, this relations jumped over directly. 从一个严厉的老师,直接就变成了愧疚忧心的‘娘亲’,而中间所谓‘师徒’的关系,拜师都没开始,这个关系直接就跳过去了。 The so-called strict teacher has the outstanding disciple and loving mother defeat, she does not know how in any case Li Zhibai thinks. 所谓严师出高徒、慈母多败儿,她反正是不知道李知白是怎么想的。 smiled, Zhu Pingniang is narrowing the eye. 笑了笑,祝平娘眯着眼睛。 But, is knows the Chang'an character not and you equally corruption without limits, is likable.” “不过,就是知晓长安的性格不会和你一样无止境的贪,才让人喜欢。” Big Sister also said me.” 姐姐又说我。” land Miss poked Zhu Pingniang discontentedly gently, later also smiled: That...... is really joyful.” 陆姑娘不满地轻轻杵了一下祝平娘,随后也笑了:“那……还真让人高兴。” Young Master has Li Fairy maiden such backstage, always makes her feel at ease. 公子有李仙子这样的后台在,总是让她安心的。 This has the backstages and some people to favor feelings, could not most be understood by the Zhu Pingniang attendance until now land miss. 这种有后台、有人宠着的感觉,被祝平娘照顾至今的陆姑娘最了解不过。 Even if she does not rush about every day for Flower Moon Building with ease, so long as thinks regardless of oneself encounters what difficult position with Zhu Pingniang to complain and can obtain her help...... 哪怕她每日为了花月楼奔波一点也不轻松,但是只要一想到无论自己遇到什么困境都可以和祝平娘诉苦、可以得到她的帮助…… Very will be relieved. 就会无比安心。 Young Master is also the same. 公子也是一样吧。 Even if cultivation is very difficult, but the front has the light pointing the way, the body side has the wife companion...... 哪怕修行很艰苦,但是前方有指路明灯,身侧有妻子陪伴…… Really good. 真好。 Acknowledges as teacher saying that......” land miss somewhat anticipates: I want to attend the Young Master acknowledging as teacher feast.” “拜师啊……”陆姑娘有些期待的说道:“我想参加公子的拜师宴。” You?” Zhu Pingniang laughs at one: Leads you to go, A'Bai will definitely let you and she sits the same place, making one recognize you are the brothel girl, my did A'Bai want the face?” “你?”祝平娘嗤笑一声:“带你去,阿白肯定会让你和她坐一起,让人认出你是青楼的丫头,我的阿白要不要脸面了?” I can the disagreement/not with fairy maiden sit the same place, joins in the fun.” land Miss not because this small matter vitality/angry, in the final analysis, Big Sister Zhu is not the brothel miss, only then this she will not be injured. “我可以不和仙子坐一起啊,凑个热闹嘛。”陆姑娘才不会因为这点小事儿生气呢,说到底,祝姐姐不也是青楼姑娘,只有这点她不会受伤。 A'Bai will not permit, she becomes mother 's married sister, can make you stay in the edge?” Zhu Pingniang snort/hum. 阿白可不会允许,她当姨娘的,能让你在边缘待着?”祝平娘哼了一声。 „...... This.” land Miss smiled, then thought that Li Fairy maiden is really the excellent person. “……这样啊。”陆姑娘笑了,便觉得李仙子真是极好的人。 The joke turns over to the joke. 玩笑归玩笑。 The land miss somewhat cares about the issue that acknowledges as teacher, she sees things in others'shoes, if were Zhu Pingniang in one day said that must receive her for the disciple...... 陆姑娘还是有些在意拜师的问题,她换位思考一下,倘若是祝平娘在某一天说要收她为徒…… Really strange. 真是奇怪。 Clearly she and Zhu Pingniang are mother and child, is sisters, is incomparably intimate, even can pay for all her , even if the life are not related. 分明她和祝平娘是‘娘俩’,是‘姐妹’,是无比亲近的、甚至可以为她付出一切哪怕是性命都没关系。 Some can day actually must request the opposite party to be the words of master, have one type...... the feeling of relational suddenly degradation? 某一天却要拜对方为师的话,会不会有一种……关系骤然降级的感觉? Draws an analogy, probably Xu Chang'an with Yun Qian in one day said that the essential meaning ties the sworn brother to be the same, how wants to be how strange. 打个比方,好像徐长安云浅在某一天说要义结金兰一样,怎么想怎么奇怪。 Young Master and Li Miss will not have this feeling. 公子和李姑娘不会也有这种感觉吧。 Has no relations with oneself. 自己没什么关系。 Instead, if Zhu Pingniang really in one day said that must receive her for the disciple...... that the acknowledging as teacher ritual, she wants certainly to prepare well. 反而,如果祝平娘真在某一天说要收她为徒……那么拜师礼,她一定想要好好准备的。 Young Master is also definitely same. 公子肯定也是一样的。 Big Sister Zhu, what acknowledging as teacher ritual Young Master must prepare when the time comes, can be joined to Li Fairy maiden specification?” Saying that land Miss cares about very much: Very will not be laborious.” 祝姐姐,公子到时候得准备什么样的拜师礼,才能配得上李仙子的规格?”陆姑娘很关心的说道:“不会很辛苦吧。” Yun Qian: „......” 云浅:“……” Hears these words, in the eye of Miss Yun flashes through a bright. 听到这句话,云姑娘的眼里闪过一道亮光。 She cares about this topic very much. 她很关心这个话题。 Acknowledging as teacher ritual...... 拜师礼…… What can husband have? 夫君要出什么? He what lacks now, whether needs oneself to return to maternal home to take? 他现在什么都缺,是否需要自己‘回娘家’取一些? „...... “……嗯。” Zhu Pingniang thinks, custom that indeed the six rites bunch repairs together, she thinks: Looking at Chang'an can think through, actually acts bashful A'Bai to be very simple.” 祝平娘想了想,的确还有一道六礼束脩的规矩,她想了想:“看长安能不能想通了,其实拿捏阿白很简单的。” Most common, the most well-mannered six rites bunch repairs, then, all follow the flow that this mortal world acknowledges as teacher, Li Zhibai will be very happy. 给最普通的、最规规矩矩的六礼束脩,然后,一切遵循尘世拜师的流程,李知白就会很高兴。 Should be this. 本该是这样。 However Zhu Pingniang is always in doubt the Xu Chang'an thoughts. 但是祝平娘总是拿不准徐长安的心思。 What will he give A'Bai? 他会送给阿白什么呢? Zhu Pingniang thinks of here, the split vision shot a look at Yun Qian. 祝平娘想到这里,余光瞥了一眼云浅 Li Zhibai likes Yun Qian very much. 李知白很喜欢云浅 Zhu Pingniang is narrowing the eye chuckle. 祝平娘眯着眼睛轻笑。 Delivers this. 送这个吧。 ( This chapter ends) (本章完)
