Chapter 5 Listening to the Piano

Qing'er carefully selects satin fabrics on Chang'an Street. Imagining wearing the same clothes every day, I feel very uncomfortable, and it just so happens that I got some reward money last time, and I want to use the money to design a dress for myself, a dress that can show myself. To do this, I have to carefully choose the silk and satin myself, design it myself, and weave it myself.

Hey, Shangpin Silk Village! Looks like this is good!

"Boss, do you have any good silk to recommend?"

The shopkeeper greeted him with a smile and looked Qing'er up and down.

"Girl, this one is your store's new style, with a soft and bright luster! Elegant and luxurious! It's really the best in our store! ”

Qing'er stared at this purple satin, arts, jacquard, color is just the most ordinary cloth in this Shangpin silk village, it seems that the shopkeeper is a snob, see that this girl is dressed ordinary, so he is unwilling to come up with real materials, just rely on him, but also want to deceive this girl, I am a veteran of silk business, after all, I have helped my father take care of the silk business since I was a child, and followed my father to buy and sell silk. It seems that if you want to buy good silk, you have to force him!

"Since the shopkeeper has no intention of doing business, the girl will go to another house!" After speaking, Qing'er deliberately pretended to leave.

The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "Girl, what do you say?" How can I say that I have no intention of doing business, how can we do business be willing to push business out? ”

Qing'er said: "You say that this is the best of the new product, but I think that this is clearly last year's old goods, and insiders in the silk business know that this silk is originally a good thing, but if it is separated by a year, its silk will be darkened and not durable; Besides, even if this silk is sold last year, it's just a medium, so why is it superior! ”

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then thoughtfully, and said with a smile: "The girl has good eyesight, and the old man has met an expert today, don't hide it from the girl, this silk is indeed as the girl said." Since the girl is also a knowledgeable person, then the girl, you wait a minute, the old man will take another batch of silk and ask the girl to appreciate. ”

Qing'er smiled, "Shopkeeper, you're tired!" ”

I saw the shopkeeper carefully take out a silver-gray satin, the color was bright and luster, as soft as a pearl; The jacquard is delicate and elegant.

Qing'er touches it easily, the silk is silky and delicate, and the feel is excellent.

"Not bad! This silk is woven from Suzhou's spring silkworms, and it is really superb! Qing'er touched and said.

The shopkeeper looked at Qing'er very satisfied with this satin.

"Girl, good eyesight, you can see so accurately! Along with this silk is this light yarn," he said, taking out a light yarn, "Girl, look! ”

Qing'er stroked her hand and couldn't put it down, "Okay, I want these two!" ”

After Qing'er finished buying silk and satin, she was bored and walked around Chang'an Avenue alone.

When I was bored, I followed the wind, listened carefully, and instantly felt open-minded, and it was "Mountains and Flowing Water" again, yes. Qing'er slowly walked forward with silk in his arms, this busy crowd, in this big city, only his pure heart could play such a mountain and flowing water.

The Accord on the second floor, he sat next to the zither, dressed in white casually and naturally, with a soft face, so handsome, stroking the zither with both hands, what kind of mind was that, what kind of hands were that, and it could make such a beautiful sound.

He looked at Qing'er with warm eyes, for a long time, his eyes switched to other places, caressing the song arbitrarily. He is so beautiful in the pavilion, like a beautiful painting.

Qing'er stood in the pavilion, listening quietly, deeply intoxicated. The same song, every time I listen to it, I have a different feeling. This time, Qing'er felt that the nature was more intimate, and the sound of the spring water was more musical, and she liked this feeling of forgetfulness, maybe this feeling of forgetfulness was the most true self.

Qing'er feels that this song is elegant and beautiful, and the performer's technique is also exquisite, but she still feels that the timbre is insufficient, right! It is the reason for the piano, which shows that this piano is not a high-class piano, just an ordinary piano. If this person is paired with a fine piano, then this song must be extraordinary.

The magnificent Chang'an City, the tall and beautiful houses, the pavilions, the wide Chang'an streets, the busy crowds, the endless flow of cars and horses, only Qing'er alone, quietly, dumbly, standing on the floor, quietly listening to the sound of nature.

After a long time, the vocal music had long stopped, and Qing'er was still standing there alone.

When I came back to my senses, I saw that the building was already empty. I don't know what kind of person he is, why he likes to play music alone here, it's strange to say, he actually likes to play music in this busy city.

After staying in Chaxiangju for a long time, I slowly discovered that the business of Chaxiangju was not prosperous, and Liuniang even gave us very little reward money on weekdays.

The days follow the cycle like this, often living again and again, nothing more than picking up customers every day, boiling tea, serving tea, and there is nothing new about it; All the sisters are also living their own lives, and under the discipline of Liu Niang, they are all considered to be harmonious. Occasionally, Yujuan winks at me, and I don't bother to pay attention to him.

"You know what? Sister Qing'er, I often see Liuniang hiding alone in a separate yard in the backyard and crying. One day, the Ying'er girl came over and said inexplicably. Ying'er is a heartless girl, always grinning, very pleasing to everyone, probably because she thinks she is natural and simple.

Qing'er asked suspiciously, "Will someone as fierce as Liuniang cry?" You can't be mistaken, right? Laugh it off.

Ying'er said: "It's impossible, I've seen it many times, really, it's scary to cry, it's the other courtyard in the backyard, where we don't let all of us go in." Ying'er said, pointing in the direction of the other courtyard.

Qing'er felt incredible, "Really? Do you know why Liuniang cries? ”

Ying'er shook her head.

Qing'er asked: "When does Liuniang usually choose to cry?" ”

Ying'er said: "Anyway, when everyone is asleep, I once couldn't sleep at night, and I thought of my family, so I got up and walked around, walking aimlessly, suddenly, I saw that Liuniang didn't sleep, but I thought she was strange, so I followed her." In the end, I found that she had entered the courtyard at the back, and the courtyard was not allowed to enter, so I didn't follow up. Then I heard her crying inside, and she had been crying for a long time, but it was terrifying. ”

Looking at Ying'er's expression when she spoke, it is estimated that she is not lying, it should be true. However, why did Liu Niang cry in the middle of the night? Did someone bully Liuniang? Liuniang is the master here, it stands to reason that no one dares to do it! What's in that annex? From the outside, it's just an ordinary courtyard, and there's nothing special about it, so why not let people in? Perhaps, there is some secret hidden in this
