Chapter 101: How about meeting together to listen to the play
In the quiet and elegant garden, the maid is like a fish into the tea, snacks, fruits and even the stove, the house is burned with good smelling sandalwood, the stove is warm with wine, and the cigarette curls to add a bit of comfort and leisure, completely isolating the cold outside the house.

Yao Yan grabbed the last maid to go out and asked, "Is there a mistake, I'm not a distinguished guest, I'm ----just passing by." ”
She didn't want people to ----, especially to let Qiu Wanao know that she had been to the door of the Qiu family, and now entertaining her with such fanfare would inevitably affect her plans in the future.
The servant girl shook her head and made gestures, but she was dumbfounded, Yao Yan was stunned, guessing that most of the maidservants who went out just now were also dumb, so her heart relaxed a little.
She let the maidservant leave, not in the mood to eat, so she sat and waited for a while without seeing anyone coming, and began to look at her surroundings again.
Although the hut is not big, it is fully furnished, and there are many famous paintings on the wall that are worth a lot of money at a glance.
"Don't like these?" Qiu Ji asked, looking at the untouched pastries and fruits on the table.
Yao Yan looked back and smiled: "How can you be so sure that I will definitely come to you?" Qiu Ji didn't expect that she would come today, I am afraid that he had already greeted the doorman maid, but his intention made Yao Yan puzzled.
Qiu Ji invited her to take a seat, took the warm wine from the stove by herself, and said lightly: "Not sure." ”
Yao Yan's heart moved, something flowed like a stream, hesitated for a moment, and then found and said, "Actually, you don't have to be so -----"
"These are my people, you can rest assured. ”
Yao Xian could only hum, think about it and said: "Actually, this time I have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and I want to trouble Young Master Qiu for a small favor." ”
The corners of Qiu Ji's mouth raised lightly, and it was rare to tease her twice, "Since you came to ask for help, why did you come empty-handed?"
Yao Xi was not embarrassed, and his crescent eyes smiled like peach blossoms, "Tili came to ask someone to do something, but I came to ask Young Master Qiu for help." Identity aside, I met you the earliest in Beijing, and this friendship can be managed to live in a heavy gift?"
"There are not many people who can make friends with me. Qiu Ji didn't let it go.
Yao Yan doesn't care, "Young Master Qiu is weak by nature and does not reveal his feelings, he has a lot of friendships, but he knows little. ”
Wei Za has been guarding the door, but his mind has already drifted into the door, holding his breath and concentrating without missing a word, he can't help but laugh out loud when he hears this, but he has no time to cover his mouth.
Yao Yan glanced at the door, still a little uneasy: "I swaggered in and walked in, can I really avoid the eyes of Lord Shoufu?"
Qiu Ji fiddled with the wine glass, the wine in the cup was already cold, he didn't drink it for a long time, and said slowly: "The courtyard of Qiu Mansion is deep, how can everything be in his eyes." ”
No matter how big it is, it's just a house! Yao Xian added in his heart, but he was still relieved in his heart.
Qiu Ji assured that there must be a key that she didn't understand, as for how, she didn't bother to ask, as long as what she asked for today was not leaked, she didn't have much to worry about.
When she went out of Qiu Mansion, there was no one along the way, Yao Xian knew that this was just a corner of Qiu Mansion, but she was a little surprised when she saw the scene of an empty house, no matter how big the room was, there was no popularity, and she was panicked when she lived in it.
Wei Za returned to the east chamber, Qiu Ji was putting the wine pot back on the stove to warm it, he was secretly surprised, the young master rarely did not drink, but today he did not drink a glass, "Young master, Miss Yao has gone back." ”
Qiu Ji handed him a post that had already been written, "Send it to the Li Mansion---- and go out through the side door." ”
Wei Za hesitated slightly, but he still respectfully responded, and sent the prayer note from the side door to the Li Mansion.
Not long after this prayer post was delivered, a small servant hurriedly ran into the courtyard.
"Master, the young master sent a letter of worship from the side door, which was sent to the Li family. ”
Qiu Wanao snorted, "Go and see what's going on?"
The little servant received the order, went to inquire again, and came back with the news half an hour later, Qiu Wanao slapped the table angrily when he heard it: "Is he really like this?"
The little guy only affirmed: "The little one has been confirmed several times, and it is true-----"
Qiu Wanao scolded angrily with a cold face: "The waste thing raised by the son of a bitch, you want to hide this trick from me, where is it?"
"Tomorrow afternoon, the wine injection building in Pipa Lane. The little guy replied in a whisper.
Qiu Wanao made a gesture, and the little guy retreated in understanding.
Since Yao Xian left, Qiu Fu has been inexplicably shrouded in gloom, but Yao Xian has returned to Zhigezhai at this time and is giving Meng Meng a travel plan for tomorrow.
"I haven't heard the play yet, will my eldest brother be free tomorrow?" she was looking forward to it.
Yang Meng was even more surprised, Yao Xi rarely went in and out with him during this time, he was still very unhappy in his heart, and felt that the girl's family was too big-minded, so he would not "wait" to see his annoying eldest brother.
"If you want to go, we can go, and I'll inquire where there is a stage tomorrow to sing. Luo Meng had obviously laughed out loud, very happy.
"I've already inquired, there will be a small wine injection building in Pipa Lane tomorrow afternoon, and it will be the best Qinglan Garden. Yao laughed.
It was rare for Luo Meng to see that she was so concerned about these entertainment things, where did she hesitate, and proposed to go to the city after listening to the play, and go to Yangshan in the future, but she didn't have a chance, Yao Xi also readily agreed.
The next day, they woke up naturally from sleep, and after breakfast, Yao Xi and Luo Meng went out to Pipa Lane according to the time.
Today's Pipa Lane is much more lively than in the past, just yesterday, Qinglan Garden released the news to sing in the wine injection building, which is great news for the opera fans in Beijing.
It's just that the news was released suddenly, and it didn't conform to the consistent style of Qinglanyuan, and many people were skeptical about it, until the sedan chair of Xinfu stopped at the door of the small wine injection building, and everyone knew that it was true. It's a pity that I have missed the time to buy a seat, so I can only squeeze into the lobby on the first floor to listen.
It took Lei Zhibiao a lot of effort to barely pass through the lobby, and he was about to go up to the second floor, but was unceremoniously stopped by Xiao Er at the entrance of the wooden ladder.
"Guest officer, I can't go to the top, Qinglan Garden has set up a stage on the second floor, only the distinguished guests who have bought a seat can go up, if the guest officer really wants to listen to the play, he can only be in the lobby. ”
Lei Zhibiao listened to the drama indeed babbling and singing the opera, he didn't like to listen to the play, but he was worried about the beauty waiting on it, and he was so angry that he scolded: "Dog calf, even the young master's way dares to block it, get out of the way for me." As he spoke, he pushed Xiao Er's arm that was blocking the way.
Xiao Er was pushed to his back, and although the road got out of the way, Lei Zhibiao still couldn't go up to the second floor, because there were already people who didn't like it and took the lead to stop it.
One person just said it, and in a blink of an eye, a group of people looked at Lei Zhibiao angrily, as if he had done a big bad thing, even if it was Lei Zhibiao, he didn't dare to step on the steps of the second floor easily.
The movement downstairs was not small, which caused the people listening to the play upstairs to be dissatisfied, and some people had already scolded: "What's the noise below, let people not listen to the play." ”
This scolding attracted the echo of several other people upstairs, upstairs and downstairs plus singing, beating gongs and drums, and the entire wine injection building was boiling for a while.
Li Jiale's willow eyebrows twisted slightly, and he said with some displeasure: "Why did Young Master Qiu choose such a place alone?"
