Chapter 12: Pearls are like earth, and gold is like iron
The Red Mansion is the golden cave of the powerful and wealthy of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Drunk and dreaming of death, poor and extravagant, drunk and golden.
At this moment, Xu Feng understood why people tirelessly pursued power.
Gold and silver beams and columns, jade brick paving.
The little woman at the head of the building sat on the kite, and saw the flying dust in the distance.
The scent of rouge gouache came to the face, and the glamorous women were dressed frivolously.
The young man seems to be a regular customer of the Red Mansion, and a small servant recognizes the young man and comes forward to greet him, and the young man casually rewards him with a piece of gold cake.
This little guy should have accepted it, and he was not overjoyed, and led the young man upstairs.
Liu Ling walked in the front, like a silly girl from the countryside entering the city, looking left and right, her eyes shining with golden light.
But Xu Feng knew in his heart that Liu Ling aimed at the money bag in the guest's arms, the jade wrench in his hand, and even the woman's gold and silver jewelry, this is a girl who loves money like life.
The young man said, "What is the name of this son?"
Xu Feng said: "Xu Feng, where is Your Excellency?"
The young man said, "Situ Yu." ”
In Hojing, Situ Yuru is famous for his reputation as a red mansion.
The Great Saturday Division, the chief of the division, Shi Situ Wuji, has a sixty son, named jade, and cherishes it with caution.
Situ Yuren is as his name, like a jade boy, extremely beautiful, male and female, but also a gentleman, talking elegantly, how many powerful daughters in Hojing fall in love with this person.
Xu Feng naturally didn't know about this, and said politely: "There is Brother Lao Situ who has broken the bill." ”
Liu Ling turned around and said, "You are Situ Yu, the son of Master Sima's family." ”
Situ Yu said: "It's exactly below." ”
Liu Ling walked to Situ Yu's side and looked left and right, her eyes were full of small stars, it seemed that she was a girl with a young woman and met a lover.
Situ Yu was tall, with his head upright, as if waiting for praise.
From childhood to adulthood, family background, appearance, and talent, Situ Yu is the dragon and phoenix among people, and women are either obsessed with his appearance, or intoxicated by his talent.
This kind of situation is commonplace, and in Situ Yu's cognition, there are only words of praise that follow.
But Xu Feng knew that Liu Ling's eyes were not affectionate, they were looking at the size of the fat sheep, and his eyes were subconsciously drooping, not surprisingly, Situ Yu's money bag, jade pendant and other valuable items were gone.
With empty hands, Liu Ling smiled and said, "It's really a little white face." ”
Situ Yu was unexpected, dumbfounded, and the person was stunned for a moment, this is the first time he has heard of this title.
Xu Feng said: "She means that your face is white. ”
Situ Yu said stupidly: "Oh, I'm quite white." ”
At this moment, even Xu Feng couldn't help but want to laugh, when a gentleman meets a scoundrel, it is often the former who suffers.
The little servant led the three of them to a private room on the second floor.
The taste of the wine and food in the Red Mansion is average, very ordinary, but the guests of the Red Mansion never care about the deliciousness of the wine and food, and they care more about the girl.
And what Xu Feng was worried about was what Situ Yu would take to pay the bill.
As for Liu Ling, this girl eats very quickly, and Xu Feng is even curious about how much her stomach can hold.
Suddenly, the noisy Red Mansion was quiet for a moment, and then there was a lot of people, some people shouted, some screamed, and some cried with joy.
Xu Feng pushed open the window of the room and saw a graceful woman on the high platform of the main hall, and countless people looked at this woman and boiled.
The Red House has nine floors, and the rooms are all built in a circular shape, and when you open the windows, all the rooms can see the high platform of the main hall on the first floor.
At this moment, countless rooms have pushed open windows, and many eyes are focused on this woman.
This woman has thin sleeves in a green shirt and a plump body, but it gives people a kind of lightness like butterflies flying.
The most noteworthy thing is that this woman's face is only good, but there is a foxy taste between her eyebrows and eyes.
This is the most obsessive taste for men.
Situ Yu said: "It turned out to be Su Dieyi from the thirteenth room, is it her wishful gift today?"
There are thirteen rooms in the Red Mansion, all of which are beauties who are beautiful in both color and art.
Since ancient times, heroes have been sad about the beauty pass, such a beauty naturally has a benefactor to raise, and Du Hojing is a powerful and powerful person.
But this kind of relationship is like a stranded fish, which can be foamed at each other, or forgotten in the rivers and lakes.
Even if there is a sinking fish and a goose, you must drink water and eat.
Therefore, before finding the next benefactor, when the beauty is in a good mood, she will come out for a walk and choose the wishful husband.
And there is only one request, silver.
Everyone has a chance to be a good one, and how many rich but powerless people are crazy about it and spend money like dirt.
This process is the gift of wishful thinking.
Liu Ling asked Situ Yu: "You don't join in the fun." ”
This girl is really not kind, Liu Ling is squeezing Situ Yu's silver.
Xu Feng believed that as long as Situ Yu made a bid, then this silver would not be earned by the Red Mansion.
"Who doesn't pity such a beauty, if you talk about family background, I should not let me, but I am just shy. Situ Yu shook his head as he spoke, very sorry.
Liu Ling was very disappointed when she suddenly found that the fat sheep had become a poor ghost, but when she saw Xu Feng, she smiled sweetly.
This fat sheep is fat and strong, Liu Ling still remembers the first time they met, Xu Feng said that he was very rich, and asked her that the restaurant in Hojing was the most expensive.
Xu Feng was inexplicably cold and cold, as if there was a meat cleaver aimed at the fattest piece of meat on his body.
"A million taels of silver. ”
Someone is starting to bid.
"Silver million? Is this humiliating Miss Su? I'll give 100,000 gold and send another manor. ”
Some people are not convinced and raise the price.
At this moment, gold and silver are like earth, and he smiled for the beauty, and his eyes were somewhat red.
Suddenly, Liu Ling picked up a red lantern and shook it by the window with bad intentions.
The rules of the Red Mansion, as long as the red lantern is hung, no matter how much the other party sells, it will be doubled.
Situ Yu hurriedly reminded and said, "Girl, this red lantern can't be played. ”
Liu Ling said: "I know the rules of the Red Mansion, but you look at the extreme beauty of this woman's birth, I have to be tempted when I see it, I'm afraid that someone has a thief's heart and is not embarrassed, I'm helpful, are you right, brother-in-law." ”
This is a threat, as long as Xu Feng doesn't want to go bankrupt, the silver in Liu Ling's pocket will be full.
"Brother-in-law?"
"Brother, you can! Take your sister-in-law to the Red Mansion, which is the only one in Kyoto. Situ Yu seemed to have discovered a new continent and whispered to Xu Feng, but then he seemed to think of something again, and said, "No, you are a sister!"
Xu Feng pushed away Situ Yu, who was smiling evilly, and looked at Liu Ling with a smile.
Because, Xu Feng has been controlled by Liu Ling from beginning to end, but this time he finally has a chance to turn defeat into victory.
Although such a reversal into victory is a bit laughable, Xu Feng feels that as long as Liu Ling is not happy, he will be happy.
And Xu Feng lacks everything, but he does not lack silver.
Liu Ling was full of confidence and said: "It's all a family, you can discuss, I don't want much." ”
Xu Feng said: "You don't worry about your sister marrying a poor bastard in the future." ”
Liu Ling said: "It's okay, my family is not short of money, and the dowry is enough for you to spend." ”
Xu Feng said: "In that case, I think you have a point, who doesn't like a beauty in her arms?"
How can I walk by the river without getting my shoes wet, Xu Feng's indifference makes Liu Ling in a dilemma, this red lantern is not hanging, and it is not hanging it.
At this moment, someone downstairs shouted, "Someone has hung a lantern on the second floor." ”
This shout was quiet for a while, and then someone said: "How many years has no one hung lanterns in this red mansion, this is that person's big hand." ”
For a while, everyone's eyes focused on the private room where Xu Feng was.
Su Dieyi also looked at the second floor, her eyes wandered, like spring, and she smiled slightly, it seemed that she could turn all beings upside down, and everyone was fascinated.
However, at this very moment, two red lanterns were hung in a private room on the fifth floor.
Seeing this scene, Liu Ling decisively hung up the red lantern, and then pulled up Xu Feng to leave.
Xu Feng said: "Running away?"
Liu Ling deserves a little bit.
Xu Feng said: "Aren't you a master?"
Liu Ling said: "Good tigers are afraid of wolves. ”
Xu Feng was still very moved that Liu Ling did not run away alone, sat back in the chair, and said, "I am not short of silver, otherwise why do you think I should marry your sister." ”
Liu Ling was a little wooden, but seemed to understand a little, and asked, "Hang another one." ”
Xu Feng said: "Hang it all up." ”
Liu Ling nodded dumbfoundedly.
At this moment, Xu Feng was very happy, he had never seen Liu Ling like this, he knew that he should have smashed a lot of silver, and used silver to fill up the pits dug by Liu Ling.
But the next moment, Liu Ling also smiled and said, "What a stupid son of the landlord's family." ”
So Xu Feng couldn't laugh, and he knew that the girl who ate dog meat was not so easy to deal with.
