Luoyang after a long absence is like a girl wearing a light veil, always remembering the most beautiful appearance. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Sitting in the carriage and looking at the familiar street in front of him, the corners of the merchant's mouth couldn't help but show a smile: Luoyang! I am back!

It seems that after walking for a long time, I saw a familiar corner of the cornices from a distance.

It has been renovated several times, but it still maintains the famous Yunshui Square in Luoyang City, which is getting closer and clearer in the sight of merchants.

The white marble steps in front of the door also seemed to have some familiar halos.

Different from the previous two days around the city, Gao Yang was successfully buried outside Luoyang City near his own hot spring Zhuangzi, and the businessmen who had done everything could put down their minds and truly step into the place where they opened their eyes for the first time when they came to this world.

Stopping the carriage in front of the spacious gate of the four rooms of Yunshui Fang, the merchant just glanced at Li Mo with a smile, jumped out of the carriage first, stepped up the familiar steps in a few steps, and knocked the door knocker.

The little maid behind the door lazily sounded with a sleepy voice: "The guests came early, and the girls in this workshop are afraid that they haven't gotten up yet!" ā€

Li Mo, who jumped out of the car behind the businessman, saw her blushing slightly, and couldn't help but smile a little.

This morning, not long after the sky dawned, where would the girls in the workshop open their doors to welcome customers? Only she, who is in a hurry, will come early.

"Business...... Businessgirl!? In front of the half-open door stood a very familiar little guy, although he was much older than a few years ago, but the smile on his lips was still the same as many years ago.

At this time, he had already opened his mouth wide, looking at the woman in front of him in a plain dress but still in a bright color with an unparalleled face, and even the door bolt in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang".

The merchant smiled and nodded at the little guy, and was about to ask out loud, but saw the little guy suddenly roll towards the door like a gust of wind, and shouted as he ran: "Owner! Owner! The merchant girl is back! The merchant girl is back! ā€

In the blink of an eye, the entire Yunshuifang was suddenly awakened by this series of cries of surprise as if it were asleep, and the noisy voices rushed towards the door like a tide.

Ruyi, who was already the owner of a square, screamed and rushed to the wide open door with a face that had not had time to put on makeup, and when he saw the woman in plain clothes and wearing a simple hairpin, the tears in his eyes could no longer stop flowing out.

"You damn girl! I've been gone for so many years, and I don't remember to come and see my sisters! If it weren't for the well-informed girls in our workshop, I would have been worried that you would be gone! What a conscience! Ruyi wiped the tears from her face while scolding with a smile.

Some of the girls on the side were selected by the merchants back then, and some of them entered the workshop later. But without exception, all of them have heard the name of the most legendary merchant girl in Yunshuifang!

At this time, the girls all stared at this low-key but imposing woman with low-key makeup, and some little girls who had not yet entertained guests looked at the businessman's free appearance and imagined what they would look like in the future.

The merchant couldn't cry and laugh and let Ruyi pull his sleeves, looking at her laughing and scolding, completely lacking the momentum of the owner of a square, and couldn't help but feel a big headache.

"Let's go inside! Standing here, you don't have to make people look at the joke. The merchant tugged at his sleeves a little uncomfortably.

Although it was still early at this time, there were already pedestrians on the street, and they were crying and making trouble standing at the door like this, which had already attracted the curious eyes of passers-by.

Hearing the words of the businessman, Ruyi reacted, hurriedly wiped the tears on his face, and was about to pull the businessman into the door, but at a glance he saw Li Mo standing aside.

At this time, in order not to attract people's attention, Li Mo still put on the human skin mask he often wears, and returned to the appearance when he first appeared in Luoyang, and when he saw Ruyi looking at him, Li Mo smiled lightly and arched his hand.

"Isn't this Li Gongzi? What are you ......" Ruyi turned his head to look at Shang Shang, not understanding what kind of trouble the two of them were making.

"Let's go in and talk about it!" The merchant tugged at Ruyi again, and his chin gestured out the door again.

Turning around the familiar hall, from the spiral staircase to the second floor, Ruyi Bento first pushed open the room where the merchant had originally lived.

The ornaments in the room are still the same as when the merchants left, and even the silk tent with the pattern of twigs and lilies on the bed is still the original one.

Seeing the moved appearance of the merchant, he raised his head proudly, turned his head and sent away the little girl who came up with the snack, and then led the merchant and Li Mo into the house.

"How? Did you remember anything when you saw this room? Ruyi put the tea tray on the table and turned to look at the merchants who were looking at the furnishings in the room.

"I didn't expect you to keep this room...... the corners of the merchant's eyes were slightly wet.

It's not a joy to be a courtesan, but it's the place where she's lived for so many years, and the painful and happy days she spent here still seem like yesterday.

"Sit down!" Li Mo stretched out his hand to help the businessman who was shaken, and thoughtfully helped her sit in the circle chair.

It can be seen that the merchants still have great feelings for this place, although Ruyi and Shen Fang were not able to participate in the marriage, but the merchants have always been extremely worried about them.

Because of this, the merchants chose Luoyang as their first stop in the Tang Dynasty.

The three of them sat at the table and talked for a while, and the businessmen slowly talked about the various people and things they had encountered in the past few years. The encounter between Gao Yang and the debate machine made Ruyi sigh when he heard it, and immediately promised the merchant that he would often go to worship in the future.

Seeing that it was already noon, Ruyi ordered the little maid to invite the owner of Shen Fang, who lived outside the city, and went to arrange the lunch meal.

Seeing that Ruyi was busy, the merchant smiled and stopped, and said: "If you want to talk about eating, you don't have to be busy, I have one more thing here, and I will have to eat when I finish it, but I don't work Ruyi." ā€

Ruyi heard Shang Shang speak, his face was slightly stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "I forgot, isn't the owner of Luoyang Kitchen Road you?" That's it! If you haven't come to see your sisters for so many years, I'll eat you! ā€

After speaking, Ruyi laughed again, pointed to the door and said: "Now Xiangnu and Man'er are already masters in the workshop, and they have to be called for this good thing to go to the kitchen to eat." ā€

Thinking of the scene when he came to power with Xiangnu and Man'er, Shangshang couldn't help but smile, and the days of the year seemed to pass by again.

Luoyang's kitchen has not changed much from many years ago, a sous chef who had learned cooking with Song's mother is now the shopkeeper of the kitchen, seeing that the owner is coming, the sous chef deliberately vacated the best private room to entertain businessmen.

Sitting in a familiar place, looking at the friends he hadn't seen for many years and the mentors of the year, the businessmen only felt that this trip to Luoyang was indeed very fruitful.

During the banquet, everyone talked about their experiences after saying goodbye, and accidentally mentioned Ruyu, Shen Fang only said that he heard that he had given birth to a son, and the man was indeed good to her, so everyone smiled with relief, after all, it was not easy for a happy woman to find someone who treated her sincerely.

"It seems that the song that day was really good for her, and it can be regarded as an early blessing for her." The merchant smiled and spoke.

"What else do you say? Since then, all Qiu Niang in Luoyang who marries someone in Luoyang always has to sing that song, and the Qiu Niang who married yesterday in the Peony Pavilion is singing this song when she goes out! If you had come a day earlier, you would have heard! ā€

After eating a chopstick dish into his mouth, the barbarian is still hearty, and he shouts about yesterday's Peony Pavilion marrying Qiu Niang.

Hearing the barbarian mention the Peony Pavilion, the merchant suddenly remembered the white peony who often followed King Wu at the beginning, and his eyes couldn't help but look at Ruyi who was sitting on the side.

"That white peony...... I don't know what's going on? ā€

"White peony? She! He's dead! Ruyi was only slightly stunned, and then reacted, but the expression on his face was faint.

"Dead?" The merchant opened his mouth wide in surprise.

She really didn't expect that the arrogant and noble woman would die at such a young age, and to this day, she can still remember that beautiful face.

"After losing the competition, she chose to serve in the inner court, she lost badly, and the grandmother didn't treat her very much, and she always took King Wu to heart, and it didn't take long for her to get sick, but two years of hard work was gone."

Ruyi's words were faint, but the sigh in his voice was clearly audible.

Since ancient times, Qiu Niang's life is thin, and it is a blessing to meet a good man, if not, it is just a flower falling with the water, where can there be a good home?

Seeing that the banquet gradually fell silent, Shang Shang's heart was really uncomfortable, and there was a layer of tears in his slightly lowered eyes.

"All the girls are temperamental, hearty and generous. If you need anything in the future, you might as well go to Chang'an to find the Li Mansion, Li Mo should do his best for you, and it can be regarded as a piece of my heart and that of the businessmen. ā€

It was only at this time that Li Mo, who had been watching the merchant and the merchant nagging with everyone with a smile, finally said a word, the sincere smile on his face did not diminish slightly, but his right hand was hidden under the table, holding the merchant's left hand, and pinching it gently, signaling her not to worry.

When Li Mo was in Luoyang, he often followed the prince, and now the prince has already become the emperor, and the promise given by the Son of Heaven is undoubtedly a holy decree for all the women here, after all, the identity of the official prostitute wants to change, and there is no second way except for amnesty.

"Li Gongzi! Thank you for your kindness! Ruyi has thanked so many sisters! ā€

Ruyi, who was sitting on the right side of the merchant, raised the wine cup in his hand, and drank it all after arching his hand to Li Mo, the wine in the wine cup flowed into her mouth together with the tears on her cheeks, but there was no bitterness in the past, but there was a sweet and sweet taste.
