Chapter 33: Song Yan (The last day of the weekend, a special chapter~)
The next day, the sky was clear, and the blue sky was like the clear Houhai, and the blue was transparent without a trace of impurities. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info It's summer, and although the sun isn't scorching, it's also a little hot.
Gu Yanling changed into a thin blue shirt, her hair was tied with a shark yarn ribbon, and she didn't have a multi-treasure hairpin, she was originally lazily leaning on the beauty couch under the window to watch chess games, and the sunlight passed through the window and a magnolia tree fell down, which was already spotted, with a faint warmth, which caused Gu Yanling to be a little sleepy, and actually fell asleep with her forehead, her hair that was as smooth as a waterfall was obediently sprinkled on her chest, and the bright moon and shadow in her ears lined the girl's skin like warm jade.
When Libi came in, what she saw was such a picture of a girl's spring sleep, and she walked in a little helplessly, and just put a thin blanket on Gu Yanling, the girl's eyelashes like butterfly wings trembled slightly, and when she opened her eyes, it was a pair of misty eyes.
In the previous life, as an old woman in her fifties, her sleep was originally shallow, and as a calculating queen mother, she was not without precautions in her sleep, even if she started again, this problem could not be changed.
Seeing that there was a blue in front of him, Gu Yanling's expression relaxed, and he looked out the window lazily, and a faint smile appeared on his lips: "I was reading a book, but I didn't expect to be illuminated by the sun, and my body was lazy." ”
Jubi pursed her lips and smiled, and then said, "Girl, there is a person named Song Yan who came to ask to see the girl, and said that it was ordered by the fourth master. ”
Gu Yanling's eyes lit up, and he immediately sat up, smoothed his skirt and said, "Let him come in." ”
She was about to quit in response, but suddenly heard a voice behind her.
"I see that the roses in the garden are blooming well, so go out and talk to Luo Kui, and tell her to pick up some good ones and let the kitchen make some rose cakes and rose dew. ”
Yubi paused slightly, then nodded and went out.
When he came in again, a seventeen or eighteen boy walked in, dressed in a neat and neat plain robe, tied his hair with a plain blue scarf, and his appearance was handsome and clean.
It's a man.
"The little Song Yan said hello to the big girl. ”
The young man came in and bent over and hugged his fists, and after looking at it, Gu Yanling could actually see the young man's strong muscles from under the close-fitting clothes, and his lips were slightly invisibly raised, and then he spit out two words lightly: "Sit down." ”
"Big girl, this ...... Unruly. ”
Seeing the young man standing in embarrassment, Jiang Zhu on the side stepped forward with a smile and said, "In our Liuli Courtyard, the rules of the eldest girl are the rules, so you can sit down." ”
Song Yan quickly glanced at the big girl in front of him, but he didn't speak, but it seemed to be acquiescing, and Jiang Zhu persuaded him to sit down, and then he pushed off the hypocrisy of a little girl, so his eyebrows and eyes were smooth, and he hugged his fist and said, "Miss Xie." ”
When Song Yan sat upright, Libi brought tea again, Song Yan, who has always been straightforward and hearty, was also a little embarrassed, according to the meaning of the fourth master, he is the leader of the errand, if nothing else, the big girl on the seat is his future master, but this first meeting, it is a seat, and it is a tea, seeing the dress of the tea just now, it is clearly a big girl with a face, which makes him really a little confused, but he is a little restrained between his hands.
Gu Yanling naturally saw that the young man was unnatural, it was because of his old acquaintance that he ordered like this, but now he scared people when he saw it, Gu Yanling's lips pulled up a shallow smile: "You don't need to be restrained, let's drink tea first." ”
The young man hurriedly said, "Yes." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and raised his neck to take a sip, and then the young man's movements were sluggish, and he almost couldn't help but squirt out with the steaming tea in his mouth, but looking at the three masters and servants in front of him, his face turned red in a daze, and finally he swallowed it.
Libi and Jiang Zhu on the side were stunned, and then there was a clear laughter.
Seeing the two delicate girls in front of him laughing at herself, Song Yan was even more embarrassed, hurriedly stood up, and held back for a long time before he said, "Song ...... Song Yan lost his temper. ”
Looking at such a young man, Gu Yanling couldn't help laughing, he didn't expect that such a powerful character in his previous life would be so helpless in front of him, but like a white and tender little monk who had entered the Pansi Cave.
Thinking of this, Gu Yanling couldn't help but be stunned, what did she become?
Thinking about it, he shook his head helplessly, sorted out his expression and said, "Okay, sit down." ”
"Before I came, I think the fourth uncle also told you, you should know that in the future, you will stand in the same boat as us and be a serious master and servant. ”
The more he talked about it, Gu Yanling's tone became more and more serious, and when Song Yan heard this, he immediately got up and said: "Song Yan knows that in the future, Song Yan will swear to follow the eldest girl to the death and let the eldest girl send him." ”
Although the young man in front of him bowed his head respectfully, his back was straight, which made Gu Yanling think of the past, so his words were more serious, or rather, a little heavier.
"I don't need you to follow to the death, I want you to do your best to save your own life, so that you can better protect us, even when it is dangerous. ”
Song Yan's eyes were shocked, and he couldn't help but look up, the girl in front of him was looking at him fixedly, his eyes couldn't reach the bottom like a hole, but from the darkness that he couldn't see clearly, he faintly saw firmness, and, trust.
Song Yan didn't know why, he felt that he was boiling with blood boiling because of a warm current that was spurting out, his eyes became more and more determined, his expression became more resolute, and he once again hugged his fists and said sonorously: "Song Yan will only obey the decision of the eldest girl in the future, and swear to protect himself to the death!" ”
Gu Yanling's side face softened slightly, and the corners of his lips smiled, this is the real Song Yan.
There is always a difference between obeying orders and being sent.
"Okay, I've gotten up three times in a row, sit down. ”
Hearing Gu Yanling's words, Song Yan touched the back of his head and sat back embarrassedly.
"I wonder what the girl has to say?"
Seeing that Song Yan took the initiative to mention it, Gu Yanling was not dumbfounded, and glanced at Jiang Zhu, who immediately walked out knowingly and stayed outside.
Gu Yanling leaned back lazily, tilted his head slightly to look at Song Yan, and said in a slow and low tone: "I need you to help me do two things." ”
Seeing this, Song Yan became a little more upright, and listened quietly.
"First, I need you to go somewhere. ”
The girl's bright eyes flashed slightly, and she gently spit out three words: "Yangzhou Fang." ”
Hearing this name, Song Yan was slightly stunned, and he didn't react, he naturally knew what place Yangzhou Fang was, and it was a famous place for "thin horses" to trade.
Yangzhou salt merchants are rich and rich, and they are immersed in the arrogant and lascivious life all the year round, and over time they have supported an industry that is not on the scene, that is, "raising thin horses".
There are special "tooth fathers" and "tooth women" who select outstanding-looking girls from poor people's homes, buy them back for teaching, and teach poetry and songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, which cater to the elegant things of all men, and even "play double land" and "wipe dominoes".
When these girls are trained, they will be sold to rich merchants as concubines at a high price.
Originally, this was popular in Yangzhou, and later as these girls were sold to other places, when the "Yangzhou Fang" in the capital opened, it was put on the bright side of the table, and the workshop was full of these so-called "thin horses".
As long as there is a buyer who is willing to pay the right price to buy, he can immediately pay money with one hand and hand over to others, and buy it back as a concubine.
Song Yan was a little puzzled, the eldest girl was a noble girl in the boudoir, and she didn't go out of the door on weekdays, so what did he do in that place inexplicably?
Gu Yanling coughed lightly, Song Yan paused, busy and listening, Gu Yanling naturally knew what Song Yan was thinking, but he didn't ask, he just said lightly: "You go and help me check, is there a girl named March in this Yangzhou Fang." ”
Song Yan frowned slightly, but when he heard the girl's nice voice, he seemed to think for a moment, and then sounded again.
"About fifteen or sixteen years old. ”
After speaking, Gu Yanling looked at Song Yan, and said in a somewhat aggravated tone: "If you find this girl, you will buy her at a high price, find a suitable place to place it, and then come and talk to me, but remember one thing, don't let people know, no one can, including the fourth uncle." ”
Although Song Yan's heart was full of doubts, he also knew that to be a subordinate was to talk less, do things better, and not ask more, so he immediately responded: "Yes." ”
Gu Yanling nodded, picked up a cup of tea in his hand, took a sip gently, and said slowly as the sound of the tea cup falling back to the table sounded: "Another thing is that I want you to find a way for me, keep an eye on Suirong Courtyard and Tourmaline Courtyard, if there is anything abnormal, tell me if there is anything strange." ”
Song Yan's frowning brows opened slightly, he faintly noticed that this was a secret matter related to the mansion, and then said in a deep voice: "Song Yan understands, don't worry, girl." ”
Gu Yanling nodded, but said, "Suirong Courtyard, be extra careful." ”
Song Yan bowed his head in response.
No matter how powerful Gu Yanjin is, he is just a teenager in the end, but Gu Jingzhao is different, his power is blindfolded, once he has a desire for power, he can do everything.
