Chapter 172: Tianxiang Upstairs
Tianxiang class is an opera troupe that has just arrived in Yuexi, rented a garden in Dadu, and soon began to sing. The dignitaries and nobles of Dadu found that the rest of this troupe was ordinary, but there were several extremely outstanding martial arts Hua Dan, all of whom were beautiful in appearance and singing, and the class owner was generous, and chose the most luxurious location and the most elegant environment to arrange the stage.
At this moment, most of the dignitaries, ladies and ladies have been seated under the gorgeous stage, and the backstage troupe is also ready to take the stage. The gongs, drums, silk and bamboo sounded noisily, and the martial artists on the stage wore a velvet crown, a four-clawed dragon robe, holding a snow-bright silver spear, with a jade face and a mighty face, and a heroic posture, and won a cheer as soon as he appeared.
This play is about Liu Xiaochun, the son of Liu Chang, the traitor of the former dynasty, who relies on his father to bully men and women and harm one party. One day, Liu Xiaochun traveled with wine, met Xu Ying's family to the suburbs to sweep the tomb, Liu Xiaochun saw that Xu Ying's wife Pei Lan was beautiful, and ordered someone to snatch it back to the mansion, wanting to accept her as a concubine, Pei Lan did not obey and was placed under house arrest on the Shuiyue Tower. Xu Ying gathered a few friends and agreed to rescue his wife and eliminate violence. That night, they quietly infiltrated Liu's mansion, and Liu Xiaochun got drunk and left the house, and after a fierce battle, they finally wiped him and his minions in one fell swoop, rescued Peilan, and escaped. This is a typical drama of heroes saving beauty, punishing evil and promoting good, which has been circulated for a long time and is very popular.
I only saw that the "Xu Ying" on the stage was unhurried, one move and one style, attacking and defending in advance and retreating, and the frame was steady. It wasn't until he faced Liu Xiaochun's big knife against the double knife that the gongs and drums suddenly changed to a rapid wind, and the rhythm accelerated, but the atmosphere was tense, and it rose sharply and won full applause.
Not long after, I saw Pei Lan, who was snatched away, come to the stage, wearing a long jade satin sleeve vibrating, the tassel step inserted in the bun suddenly swayed, flowing water like infinite affection, she tilted her head slightly, it was a tactful song, a pair of beautiful eyes were shining, the audience looked at the appearance, listened to the singing, and it was already invariably burst into bursts of cheers.
It is said that it is a troupe, of course, it is to distinguish between elegant seats and ordinary seats, and the ordinary seats downstairs are not so particular, and men, women, and children are full of rows and rows. People watched the play attentively, and from time to time they exchanged heads and ears to discuss two sentences, and the scene was extremely lively. There are seven private rooms in total, located on the second floor, each of which is elegantly furnished, all separated by thin beaded curtains, so that people outside can't see inside, but people inside can see the scene on the stage outside. Today, inside this elegant seat, all the wives and ladies of the dignitaries and nobles are standing outside, for fear that there will be a collision with a short-sighted person.
"Miss, there is still no news today." A young woman looked at the man sitting in front of the window with three points of disappointment on her face.
The man smiled lightly and said, "Yes." β
She has a porcelain-white face, lips as red as coral, and a pair of dark eyes that are moving, she can really be said to be a beautiful embryo, but her voice is as smiling as her expression, and she bites every word very clearly: "To create such a momentum, one day it will attract attention, we just need to wait." β
"Yes." Zhao Yue looked at her master deeply, Li Weiyang now, her face has changed a little from half a year ago, of course, it has become more beautiful, but Zhao Yue still likes the original Li Weiyang, because she could still see a smile on her face in the past, but in the past half a year, she can no longer see her smile sincerely.
"Princess Yongning's favorite thing is to listen to operas, when she was in Kyoto, almost all the opera troupes were invited by her once, and people's habits will not change easily, but Tianxiangyuan has been here for so long, but she has not seen her take action, it is really strange." Li Weiyang's voice was very light, as if he was contemplating.
Zhao Yue frowned and looked at Li Weiyang puzzled.
Li Weiyang arrived in Dadu a month ago, and has been secretly looking for an opportunity to meet Princess Yongning, and the other party still owes her a promise, even if Yongning doesn't want to fulfill it, she will let her fulfill it. But Yongning is now the concubine of the fourth prince, and if you want to see her, you have to avoid Yuan Yu's eyes, which is really not easy. Li Weiyang doesn't think that Yuan Yu is a stupid person, although she has changed a little compared to before, she is still easy to recognize, and acting rashly will only make things worse, so she will choose to start with Princess Yongning's preferences. However, Yongning was different from those ordinary nobles in the private room outside, and this kind of identity would never involve such a place of three religions and nine streams. Then, I can only beat the reputation of this troupe out and let the entire capital know about it. Only in this way can I have the opportunity to be invited to the Yanwang Mansion and meet Princess Yongning under the cover of the troupe.
Li Weiyang closed his eyes slightly while thinking about it, as if he was thinking about his own thoughts.
At this time, as soon as the gong sounded, it was a play that was over. Backstage, the actors on the stage were busy removing their makeup, rushing to the next scene, people coming and going, moving fast, and orderly in chaos. Only in a secluded small room, Wu Sheng Wen Xiaolou, who played Xu Ying just now, took off his makeup, but had an argument with the class owner.
"It's clear that the audience wants to listen to Fang Jingtai by name, you just want to sing this play, what is the reason!" Wen Xiaolou's face, his eyes were as bright as water, his sword eyebrows were dark, and his fair face was full of anger, but it was three points more beautiful than his original appearance full of oil paint.
He was originally an extremely handsome man, he studied drama in the troupe since he was a child, and he was born with a good voice, and later followed a martial artist to learn martial arts for a few years.
The head of the class is over fifty years old, he is rich, and he holds a cigarette stick in his hand, and when he hears this, he quickly persuades: "What are you doing!" You have the final say on how to sing this play, but what kind of play you sing, naturally I have the final say, you just have to sing! β
"Don't lie to me, it used to be good, but when that woman came, it all changed! This is your troupe, but now you have to listen to her even what repertoire she plays, has she bought the troupe?! Wen Xiaolou was obviously indignant, and even the corners of his eyes that were slightly raised also emitted a sharp chill.
The class master hurriedly glanced around, and said continuously: "Ouch, my ancestor, be quiet!" It's not that you don't know, what is the situation of our troupe, you have forgotten, when we were in Yaozhou in the past, we were wandering around, and we could only build a grass stage team, while you were singing, there was not even a place to shade the sun and rain above your head, and when we met those ruffians and hooligans, we couldn't even give some silver taels. What now? We live in the best garden, we have the best stage, and even the costumes are the most luxurious, what else do you want? People pay money, you can sing whatever you like to listen to, can Qinggao be used as a meal? β
Wen Xiaolou sneered and said, "Class master, I advise you to think clearly, this woman's origin is unknown, and her identity is a mystery, but she inexplicably found our troupe, saying that she was going to make us popular, and she also paid a lot of money to invite a famous corner for you, don't you think it's strange?" She has no relatives with us and has no reason, why does she help us so much? Where in the world is there such an easy thing! β
The class leader frowned and said, "What do you know! They're just fans of your dramaβ"
"My theater fan? You see those people outside just now, they applaud me, cheer for me, let me sing again, this is my theater fan! You said she was for the show, but did she ever listen to me sing seriously? Have you ever said a word to me? I'll tell you the truth, from the first time I saw her, I felt sick, I always felt that she had to cause us some kind of trouble! β
The head of the class looked at him in embarrassment, and said, "I have already considered what you said, and I have sent people around to inquire about the origin of this young ladyββ"
Wen Xiaolou said eagerly: "Have you inquired about anything?" β
The class leader shook his head and said, "Although our status as a group of people is low, after so many years, we have been wandering around, and we can be regarded as knowing how to look at people." She is beautiful in appearance, noble and generous, and she is so generous, she must be from a wealthy family, but why would such a young lady come here alone? You also saw it last time, there was a short-sighted person who wanted to trouble her, but was taught a hard lesson by her girl, her girl - the high level of martial arts, is definitely not an ordinary guard! β
"Since you all know that her origin is not simple, you shouldn't accept such a generous gift from her!" A trace of anxiety appeared on Wen Xiaolou's face.
"I ...... Isn't that also impossible? If you refuse to accept her money, can our team be so popular? The class leader threw down the cigarette stick and persuaded him bitterly, "Xiaolou, let's not care what her purpose is, just sing her own play, and what else is there for people to take advantage of!" β
Wen Xiaolou was dumbfounded. Indeed, what the class leader said is not wrong, people like them are just lowly actors, so what is worth using by others? If the woman had other plans, from the beginning to the end, she did not ask them to do anything, but spent a lot of money to make them popular. However, it is really uneasy to let him just leave it alone. He always had an intuition that this woman was not simple, and besides, her purpose would not be simple. She is obviously not interested in plays, but she must listen to every play in the private room, as if she is waiting for someone.
He is a play like this, when others like it, he calls Boss Wen, he is unhappy, he is even cheaper than mud, and he can't afford to provoke anyone at all, if this woman brings any trouble, what should he do-Wen Xiaolou is most worried about this.
"Brother, don't talk about her like that! I had a seizure last time, and if she hadn't asked the doctor to see me, I wouldn't be alive now! At this moment, suddenly the curtain moved slightly, and a young girl walked in from outside.
This girl is rare and beautiful, with a peach blossom face, bright autumn eyes, wearing a plain skirt, but with a cheerful smile on her face, her appearance in the dim room, as if bringing in a burst of fresh sunshine, all of a sudden the whole room was illuminated, and even the old and dizzy class owner showed a surprised look. Wen Xiaolou couldn't help but be annoyed, and said, "You are not in good health, why did you run out?" β
Xiao Man stuck out his tongue and said, "I always lie on the bed, and I'm going to get moldy." β
Wen Xiaolou looked at her, a trace of softness appeared in his originally ruthless eyes, and said, "Silly girl, the doctor said that you should rest in bed in order to-"
The head of the class showed a look of disgust on his face, everyone in his troupe had to work, as soon as this girl got sick, she would have been delayed for ten days and half a month, if it weren't for Wen Xiaolou who had been protecting this girl, he would have kicked her out a long time ago!
Xiao Man saw the expression of the class master, and hurriedly said: "Class master, my health is almost better, I can go on stage tomorrow, don't worry." β
Wen Xiaolou was about to speak, but Xiao Man shook his head at him. Wen Xiaolou's heart ached and he didn't speak anymore. He can protect her for a few days, but he can't protect him all the time - Xiao Man is so sensible, so sensible that he doesn't know what to say.
The class leader nodded, turned his head and said, "Xiaolou, that's all for this matter, I'll go out first!" So saying, he lifted the curtain and walked out.
Xiaoman looked at Wen Xiaolou and said disapprovingly: "Brother, that Miss Li is my life-saving benefactor, you shouldn't doubt her like this." β
Wen Xiaolou's smile became cold, and said, "You stupid girl, others are good to you, they may not be sincere, aren't you afraid that she has other plans?!" Think about itβ"
"Okay, brother, no matter what she is for, she can obviously let me go, even the head of the class said that she has spent a lot of money for me to see a doctor over the years, and she refuses to care about me anymore, she is not related to us, but she is willing to take out the silver, such a kind person, brother, have you ever met it?" Xiao Man's eyes flickered, but his voice was unusually firm.
Wen Xiaolou was almost speechless, Xiaoman was an orphan since he was a child, and after being adopted by an opera troupe, he began to learn to sing, but because he went out to set up a stage in the rain once, he accidentally contracted a cold, and the troupe owner refused to give her medical advice, and she became a heart disease after a delay, and then the ruthless squad owner actually left her on the street like this, regardless of her life or death. If she hadn't been picked up by Wen Xiaolou by accident, she would have died a long time ago. Over the years, she endured every time she got sick, for fear of becoming a drag on Wen Xiaolou, he knew it, but he couldn't do anything. No matter how he sings, no matter how much reward he gets, he has to hand it over to the head of the troupe, and there are only a few left, not to mention inviting a famous doctor for Xiaoman, even if he goes to the pharmacy to grab medicine, it is enough to choke, he doesn't have enough money, so he can only watch Xiaoman suffer. And Xiaoman is so sensible, no matter how serious his condition is, he still has to sing on stage, which makes him even more heartbroken.
This time, if it weren't for the mysterious Miss Li, Xiao Man might never be able to open his eyes again. No matter how much he doubted her, what Xiaoman said was the truth. Wen Xiaolou sighed and said, "Forget it, I won't say this kind of thing anymore." β
Xiao Man nodded and said, "I'm going to thank that young lady." β
Wen Xiaolou's brows furrowed even tighter, and Xiao Man hurriedly stretched out his hand to press his eyebrows, and said, "Brother, don't be like this, you will be old." β
Xiaoman is not his own sister, but for so many years, he has long regarded her as the dearest and dearest person in the world, this kind of feeling, beyond a qiΔ, he is just afraid, really afraid, he is nineteen years old this year, I'm afraid he won't be able to sing for long, he can't imagine that if he can't sing, what should Xiaoman do? How is he going to take care of her? It is precisely because of this that he is so repulsed by Li Weiyang's appearance, their lives are already in jeopardy, what changes will this mysterious young lady bring to them? He was really scared.
However, looking at Xiao Man's smile without a trace of impurities, he couldn't say half a word. How long can Xiaoman live, maybe ten years, maybe a year, no, maybe only one month, even he doesn't know, but no matter what, for Xiaoman's current smile, he is willing to do anything.
Wen Xiaolou finally sighed and said, "Okay, but you wait for me to go with you." β
Wen Xiaolou has another play next, but it is the Rouge King. This play is the story of a woman named Rouge who joined the army on behalf of her father, and it was originally Hua Dan who acted in this play, but later the class owner found that Hua Dan was less heroic, and she felt too soft no matter how she acted, so he asked Wen Xiaolou to reverse. Fortunately, Wen Xiaolou doesn't care about literary drama and martial arts, and Wusheng Huadan is not a problem. At this moment, he was wearing purple clothes, wielding a golden makeup knife, and dancing with a whip. With the intersecting music, his body swirled, like a dragon snake with wings about to fly, spinning violently, and suddenly he jumped into the air, somersaulting seven somersaults in mid-air, and everyone cheered together.
Li Weiyang rarely knows how to watch a play, but looking at this hard-working Wen Xiaolou, she suddenly sneered. Zhao Yue didn't know what she was laughing at, and couldn't help but look at her suspiciously.
Li Weiyang's eyes were cold, and there was a hint of sigh in his voice: "Do you remember how wolf Wen Xiaolou was when he first saw him?" "I didn't have enough money on my body, so I knelt at the door of the medicine hall, and I heard that I knelt all night, and I just begged the doctor to go and see his Xiaoman. It's a pity that no matter how long he kneels, the ending is the same. In the end, the doctor was moved by Li Weiyang's silver tael, but it was not because of Wen Xiaolou's infatuation.
"Miss, in fact, the slave maid has never understood, there are so many opera troupes in the world, the Tianxiang class is just a third-rate, as for Wen Xiaolou, if no one praises him, he will not be popular at all, why did Miss choose them?"
Li Weiyang listened to the thunderous applause from the audience, as if talking to himself: "Yes, why? "Along the way, I don't know how many tragic stories I have read, but she has never been moved, she is not a philanthropist, it is impossible to save everyone, not to mention, when she suffers, who will help her? However, when she saw Wen Xiaolou kneeling at the door of the medicine hall for the first time, she suddenly thought that she would make a bet with herself, if he knelt for three hours, she would save people. However, Wen Xiaolou knelt in the ice and snow all night, far more than she expected, maybe at that time, she suddenly became a little curious about the person Wen Xiaolou wanted to save.
Originally, she would not choose those famous red teams, and I also know that those drama teams have more or less backers behind them, and they don't need her financial support, so they naturally won't obey her. In Dadu, she has no power, only money, and she has to start all over again, so it is safer to choose the Tianxiang class.
Soon, there was a change of play on stage, Li Weiyang stood up and said, "Let's stop here today, we should go back." β
Zhao Yue was about to speak, but when she saw the curtain lifted, Wen Xiaolou walked in in a costume, Zhao Yue's eyebrows furrowed slightly, but she saw Wen Xiaolou and smiled: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry to disturb Miss." It's just that I have to come to thank youβ"
Li Weiyang's gaze fell on Xiao Man behind Wen Xiaolou, she just smiled, such a simple smile, it made people feel piercing. "Thank you, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have died." She thanked her sincerely.
Li Weiyang nodded noncommittally, as if he had heard.
"Miss Li, I will earn the money and pay it back to you." Wen Xiaolou said. Xiaoman listened, and showed a look of disapproval, she felt that Li Weiyang would not like to hear this, because this was not gratitude, it sounded a little ignorant, she was afraid that Li Weiyang would be angry, but the other party just said coldly: "Let it be." With that, she walked out, and Zhao Yue hurriedly put on a cloak for her.
When Li Weiyang walked by Xiaoman's side, Xiaoman's face was still smiling, the smile was more dazzling than the sun, clean and warm, Li Weiyang's eyes swept over her face, and suddenly smiled faintly, but it was like moonlight, cold and indifferent.
Two extremes - Wen Xiaolou was stunned, just when Li Weiyang and Xiaoman were standing together, he was surprised to find that Xiaoman seemed to be a ray of sunshine, and he would feel in a good mood just by looking at her, while Li Weiyang was like a cold moonlight, beautiful and beautiful, but without the slightest temperature.
Wen Xiaolou suddenly understood the reason why he didn't like Li Weiyang. Why, obviously she has such a beautiful appearance, so much silver, and a loyal guard, obviously from a rich and noble family, if she changes herself, she doesn't know how happy she will be, because having money means that all the difficulties of QiΔ are solved. But he had never seen her smile sincerely. It's always that cold look, and there's not even the slightest warmth to laugh.
At this moment, Xiaoman looked at Li Weiyang's back and said, "Brother, she seems to have a lot of sad things. β
Wen Xiaolou was stunned for a moment, and suddenly sneered: "We are so poor, and we are looked down upon by others, we have nothing, and you still worry about others-" What he said was even harsh.
Xiao Man turned his head and looked at him puzzled: "Brother, what's wrong with you?" You weren't like that beforeβ"
Wen Xiaolou turned his face away and said, "It's nothing." "Why, why does she have everything, but she is still so unhappy - and his Xiaoman, who has nothing, can still laugh so happily, Wen Xiaolou feels heartbroken.
Xiaoman's face was stern, and he said: "She saved me, she is my savior, my brother will never say those words in the future, I think, that young lady is a good person." β
Good? Wen Xiaolou's gaze fell on the outside of the courtyard, Li Weiyang had already descended the steps and got into an inconspicuous carriage. What is a woman who hides her identity everywhere going to do with their troupe? He's got to figure it out! He glanced at Xiao Man and said, "You sue the sΓΉ class master, I have something to go out!" So saying, he hurried to the side, removed the oil paint from his face, changed his clothes, and walked out without looking back.
"Brother! Where are you going! Xiaoman was upstairs and chased after him in surprise, but Wen Xiaolou ran very fast and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Xiaoman waited until the night, and finally saw Wen Xiaolou come back, she quickly stood up and said, "Brother, what are youβ"
"Shhhhh That Zhao Yue's martial arts are very high, he is not his opponent, Wen Xiaolou can only follow from afar, and finally found Li Weiyang's residence, he feels that if he doesn't take Xiaoman to see it with his own eyes, she won't believe herself at all.
Wen Xiaolou took the puzzled Xiaoman all the way out of the opera garden and went to the east gate of the capital, Wen Xiaolou relied on his memory to find a family, of course he didn't dare to knock on the door, so he wanted to take Xiaoman over the wall. Xiaoman insisted on refusing to leave: "Brother, you are too much, Miss Li is my life-saving benefactor, but you doubt her like this!" β
"It's not a suspicion of her! Didn't you say that she was always preoccupied, so there should be something bothering her? If we don't know the details of her, how can we know why she is worried? How can you help? Xiaoman, don't you want to repay her? Wen Xiaolou knew that Xiao Man was innocent, so he coaxed like this.
Xiaoman thought about it, but still hesitated: "But--I still think this is very bad, Miss Li doesn't tell us, there must be her difficulties, why should she go to the strongman's difficulties?" β
Wen Xiaolou said disapprerovingly: "You are really a fool, you will have to count the money if you are sold in the future." Whether you go in or not, I'm definitely going to go! As soon as he turned around, Xiao Man grabbed his clothes and said, "I...... I'll go in with youβ"
The two finally entered the courtyard, but saw a red cloud suspended under the moon. Xiao Man was taken aback, and then found that the peach blossoms in this courtyard were in full bloom, and among the flowers, there were countless white butterflies flying in and out, faintly shining under the moonlight. The yard is not big, but it is very neat, not far away is the main house, the two glanced at each other, Xiaoman finally felt that it was not good to do so, and refused to go forward. Wen Xiaolou was angry, so he simply left her and quietly walked towards the main house.
Under the moon, I only saw the carved windows of the courtyard, and the heavy black shadow was cast on the green bricks, there was a desolate and gloomy feeling, Wen Xiaolou felt as if he was in an empty place, exploring the secret of a girl who was not human or ghost, and his heart couldn't help but be a little frightened......
There was candlelight in the main room, Wen Xiaolou didn't know whether to move forward or not, he vaguely felt that he would find a lot of things he didn't want to know. However, if he didn't understand what Li Weiyang wanted their troupe to do, he really couldn't put his mind at ease. At this moment, the curtain suddenly rang, "meow", a mass of things jumped out, he was startled, fixed his eyes, it was just a kitten, and his eyes widened and looked at him curiously, he did not move, and the cat ran away. Wen Xiaolou breathed a sigh of relief, approached the carved window, broke the tissue paper, and looked inside.
This room seems to be two rooms inside and outside, the outside is quite clean, the wardrobe, bed, table, chair, and flowers are all brand new, and there are many flowers on it, which is very quaint, Li Weiyang and the guard next to her are not in the house, there is only a little boy, about three or four years old, his face is very cute, he is playing with a rattle in his hand, as if he is completely caught in his own world.
At this moment, Zhao Yue came out of the inner room, came to the little boy's side, and said softly, "Little master, it's time to eat." β
The little boy did not react, still shaking the rattle seriously. Zhao Yue snatched the rattle from him, but the little boy suddenly raised his head, looking at Zhao Yue in horror with a pair of dark eyes, and his face showed a bit of ferocity that did not belong to the child. Zhao Yue tried to communicate with him: "...... Little master, the slave feeds you, don't be afraid. However, the little boy suddenly turned his head and grabbed the corner of the table on the side, Zhao Yue went to pull him, he pounced viciously, biting Zhao Yue's hand fiercely, although it was a child, but it also made Zhao Yue's hand immediately have a bloody wound, which shows how much strength he used.
"Little master, you can't wait for Miss to come back every time before eating-" Zhao Yue was ruthless and said, "Little Master, Miss said, you must learn to eat by yourself!" Then he went to grab the little boy's hand, but he sprang out of her hand and ran out as fast as he could. However, Zhao Yue stretched out his hand quickly and grabbed him with one handful. He seemed to be crazy, kicking Zhao Yue desperately, but he was too short to kick her calf, this little pain was nothing to Zhao Yue, she just grabbed him and didn't let go, clamped his twisted legs, and firmly fixed him in her arms......
This scene looks like an ordinary child refusing to eat, but why does an ordinary child react so much to the approach of others? The more Wen Xiaolou looked, the more frightened he became, and he vaguely felt that the people in this courtyard were weird, and he just wanted to quit to find Xiaoman, but suddenly heard a cold voice: "Have you seen enough?" β
Wen Xiaolou's heart sank suddenly, and he immediately turned around.
There was a girl standing diagonally across from him, dressed in a pure white dress, without any bright color inlays, without a trace of expression on her beautiful face, standing at the junction of moonlight and shadow, which really startled Wen Xiaolou.
"I ...... I ......" He was almost speechless for a moment.
Li Weiyang smiled and said, "What, do you feel strange about my identity?" β
Wen Xiaolou felt an itch in his throat, and facing Li Weiyang, he subconsciously felt weak, but at this moment, it was Xiaoman who rushed over, and his face was flushed with shame: "Miss Li, let's ...... We didn't mean to......" She stood there for a long time, worried that something had happened to Wen Xiaolou, so she rushed over because she was really worried.
People were kind enough to save her life, but Wen Xiaolou was full of suspicion about others' picking, which was really unkind, so that Xiaoman couldn't defend him.
"The man in there is my brother." Li Weiyang said slowly, but it was not an explanation, just a straightforward statement.
The child inside screamed, the sound of the little beast being injured, which made Xiaoman's heart skip a beat, and she said repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry Miss Li, it's all my fault!" β
"What's wrong with you?" Li Weiyang's smile became very indifferent, "I was kind to you for no reason, you naturally want to doubt me, and besides, I didn't plan to not receive anything in return." I'm just hoping to borrow your troupe and wait for someone. But don't worry, this is my own business, and it won't affect you. "She wants to borrow the hand of the troupe to meet the county lord of Yongning, and after that, she will not have anything to do with them. But--Wen Xiaolou's intuition is very accurate, she is indeed not pure kindness to save Xiaoman.
Wen Xiaolou's face flickered red and white, and she was seen through her thoughts, she only felt very embarrassed, and at the same time felt guilty, if she was a bad person, she could take back the qiΔ given to them at any time, leaving them with nothing. He said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, Miss Li, it's my fault, it's not Xiaoman's business." β
So humble, so sincere, I apologize immediately when I know I made a mistake...... Li Weiyang smiled, but the smile was not so cold, she thought, looking at these two people, although she didn't know what kind of relationship they had, wouldn't it be nice that they cared about each other and relied on each other like this...... She said in a flat tone: "I won't complain to the class master, let's go, I will pretend that I haven't seen you today." β
At this moment, the movement in the room grew louder and louder, as if some dishes had been broken and made a crisp sound. Li Weiyang's eyebrows were very calm, as if he didn't hear it.
Wen Xiaolou heard the movement in the room, and thought of the little boy he saw just now, he had such a beautiful appearance, such dark eyes, it was surprisingly cute, no one would feel sorry for him when he saw this, but why did Li Weiyang treat him so cruelly?
He subconsciously said, "Miss Li, let my brother he-"
"It's my own business, I don't bother you." Li Weiyang didn't glance into the room, as if he didn't care about the child.
"But he's so young, he can teach slowly, you don't have to force him like this-" Wen Xiaolou gasped, and Xiao Man's face showed a look of bewilderment.
Li Weiyang said coldly, "Without pressure, he can't stand on his own." β
"You're crazy!" Wen Xiaolou didn't know what he was talking about, but when he saw Li Weiyang's cold expression, he couldn't help but say, "Treat a child like this." β
A mocking smile appeared on Li Weiyang's face: "You can only rely on yourself for everything, don't think that others will come to help you." He is a fool, he will only eat every day if I feed him, and when others come close to him, he will kick and beat, but can I accompany him all the time? I can't, so, he has to learn to eat on his own, even if it's forced! That's all I can teach him, and I don't know of any other way to teach a child in the world. β
Wen Xiaolou looked at Li Weiyang dumbfounded, and he suddenly realized that Xiaoman was right, there were too many secrets in Li Weiyang, and he couldn't see this person clearly at all.
Xiaoman's eyes looked at Li Weiyang, and suddenly, she laughed and said, "If you don't mind, I can help, I don't have many plays, and I have nothing to do when the sky is white, I am very good at taking care of children, and I used to have a good way to do the children in the troupe." She just wanted to do something for Li Weiyang and repay her.
Li Weiyang glanced at Xiaoman, she always felt that she knew people very well and understood their nature, but now, she suddenly couldn't understand this girl a little, she had already said that she also had other plans, and she didn't need her to repay her at all, but she stupidly ran to her house and said that she wanted to help her, isn't it strange?
However, Xiaoman's expression was very sincere, serious, and even ...... is very persistent, as if he can't understand the meaning of Li Weiyang's frowning, obviously, he is a stubborn child.
Li Weiyang glanced at Xiao Man and said, "You want to come?" β
Xiao Man nodded and said seriously, "Please let me do my best." β
Li Weiyang sneered, she has changed a lot of girls, and each one will be forced to go crazy by Minzhi's stubbornness in the end, and when Xiaoman knows how difficult it is for Minzhi to take care of, she will retreat.
This time, Li Weiyang miscalculated, Xiaoman really ran here every day, and took care of Minzhi with perseverance. Of course, Li Minzhi still ignores her, but she is different from others, no matter how he rejects her, she can play with him with a smile. When Li Weiyang saw Xiaoman take Minzhi's toy, he didn't open his mouth or bite, but just lowered his head and continued to play with others, she began to find that Xiaoman was special. When eating, Minzhi refused to touch the plate, desperately grabbed the toys on the other side of the table, but his little hands were short and couldn't reach it, so he climbed onto the chair on his knees, stretched his arms and crossed the bowl of porridge, but he didn't want to slip under his knees, so the whole person fell down and took off his own rice bowl, and the soup spilled Xiaoman's body, and the other person had already changed color, but Xiaoman smiled and smeared oil to pinch Minzhi's face......
Finally one day, Li Weiyang spoke: "You came here, your class master didn't scold you once, why do you still do this?" I've said it all, I don't want you to repay it. Or, what do you want me to help you again? β
She could only think of this reason, but Xiaoman quickly shook her head and said, "No, no, I don't need anything, I just want to help." β
Li Weiyang's heart moved, looked at her and said, "Help? Do me a favor? Why? β
Xiao Man looked at her puzzled, not understanding what she was talking about. In her opinion, isn't it natural to repay favors from others?
Li Weiyang stopped talking, looked at Xiao Man quietly for a while, and said, "Boss Wen said that he wouldn't let you come, and you still insist on it?" β
"What's the big deal, he'll be angry for two days!" Xiaoman grimaced: "He is always worried that I will get sick, and I am not a paper paste, where is it so easy to die?" β
ββ¦β¦β
"I'm sick, but if I don't walk or sing because I'm afraid of death, then what's the difference between me and the dead?" Xiaoman said as a matter of course, and subconsciously glanced at the room, Li Minzhi was already asleep, and when he fell asleep, he would become well-behaved and cute.
"Have you had a heart disease for many years?" Li Weiyang suddenly felt a little curious, in the past six months, it has been difficult for her to be curious.
"Me? yes, many years, probably from the age of seven to now? "Xiaoman himself is not very sure." I don't want to die, if I could, I would like to be by my brother's side for the rest of my life, he is even more fragile than me! β
Li Weiyang laughed, that smile was like melting ice and snow under the sun, fleeting: "Yes, he is much more fragile than you." β
The two of them laughed tacitly.
"I'm an orphan, I was left on the side of the road since I was a child, and the boss of the theater troupe who adopted me said that maybe my mother was a girl in a certain green building, and I lost it when she gave birth to me secretly, and I was also very sad before, but then I thought about it, what does it matter to be an orphan? I can still breathe, I can still sing, it's not a big deal. β
Li Weiyang looked at Xiaoman's cheerful smile, and suddenly became a little silent. Sun Yanjun and Lord Huanting are very naΓ―ve, but that kind of innocence is built on the basis of being protected, but they are ...... I'm afraid she has suffered a lot, but she can still maintain such a cheerful smile, why is that?
Xiaoman secretly looked at Li Weiyang's expression, "You look so good when you smile." β
Li Weiyang nodded, glanced at the door, and said, "Your brother is here to pick you up, you should go." β
Wen Xiaolou was dressed in a cyan shirt, looking very handsome, his smile was full of warmth, and Xiao Man ran towards him quickly, like a butterfly. Li Weiyang suddenly smiled again, and at this time, Zhao Yue walked to her side: "Miss, the slave maid got the news and said-"
Li Weiyang's brows furrowed slightly......
