4. The Fourth Round: Oiran Flowing Clouds

Qian Ruoying sat downstairs, bored looking east and west.

After a while, my mother walked down and smiled, "Childe, you are really lucky, we invite you to go up!" ”

Qian Ruoying also stood up with a smile, "I know that my mother is not only beautiful and moving, but also has a very good ability to do things!" ”

Mom smiled shyly and stroked her face with a handkerchief, "Childe is really joking, I'm just doing my best." ”

Qianruoying took out some treasures and stuffed them into her mother's hands, "Mom is modest, then I'll go upstairs." ”

"Childe is so resting!" Seeing Qian Ruoying gone, my mother looked at the treasure in her hand again, put it in her arms, and smiled treacherously, "It's really a God of Wealth, and it's really generous." ”

As soon as she reached the staircase on the second floor, a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old greeted her and said to her cautiously: "Childe, you are here to find our Liuyun girl, right?" "The people who enter and leave Cuiyun Mansion are either officials or businessmen, and the youngest ones are all landlords, how can a girl like her be called by others, how can she offend them?

"You are?" Qianruo was a little puzzled, but she probably guessed her identity - the maid of the Oiran.

"My name is Qing'er, and I am the maid of Miss Liuyun. I think you're the son, come with me. Qing'er took Qianruoying's cuffs and pulled her to the innermost part of the corridor.

Qianruoying also understood, and let her lead her forward, otherwise she really couldn't find this Liuyun girl's room.

Walking through the corridor, I came to the deepest part, which was very secluded and did not make a sound. There was only one room there, and it was about three or four rooms away from the nearest room.

"This is Miss Liuyun's room." Qing'er gently pushed open the door and walked downstairs by herself.

Qianruoying glanced at her back, then pushed the half-hidden door open and walked inside.

What catches the eye is not the same colorful as those delicate ladies in the room, but only a bed, a table, four chairs and a dresser, all made of sandalwood furniture, full of bookish atmosphere, but the room is also too big, only these few things are set, it looks empty.

A woman sat on the edge of the dresser with her back to Qianruoying, dressed in white, and was combing her long hair on her chest with a wooden comb.

"Childe, you're here." While Qianruoying was slightly stunned, the woman turned around and called her softly.

"Huh?" Qian Ruoying looked at the woman who was slowly walking towards her, and lost her mind slightly.

She's the Oiran Liuyun of Cuiyun Tower, right? He looks so good, and his voice is so good.

Liuyun smiled lightly, and pulled the distracted Qianruo to the side to sit on the stool, "Childe? She dangled in front of Qianruoying's eyes, and finally pulled back the thoughts that Qianruoying had drifted away.

"You're Liuyun, aren't you?" Qianruoying wanted to stand up, but because Liuyun was standing in front of her, she would meet her as soon as she stood up, "She looks so good, and she is very gentle, I almost lost my mind when I saw it." ”

Liuyun smiled shyly and covered his face with a handkerchief, "Let the girl smile, there are more beautiful girls in this world than Liuyun, and Liuyun is just a grain of sand in this." ”

Qianruoying also smiled back, and only reacted after half a ring, shouting at her: "What did you call me just now?!" Her eyes were full of nervousness, for fear that her identity had been debunked by Liuyun.

"Of course, girl, what's wrong?" Liuyun took a step back, as if startled by the voice of Qianruoying.

Qian Ruoying exhaled, smiled a little, and asked tentatively, "How did you find out that I wasn't a man?" ”

"Of course it's the scent on your body, the window is open, and I can smell it when a gust of wind blows just now. Dare to ask which man in this world has the fragrance of lotus flowers on his body? Liuyun looked at her nervous eyes and smiled slightly, "Moreover, girl, your voice is still as delicate as a woman, which makes me feel a little envious." ”

"I see." Qianruoying was a little annoyed, why didn't she think of this? It's really careless Jingzhou!

Did the people downstairs also know that she wasn't a man anymore? If so, then won't she be able to play here again?

As if seeing Qianruoying's worries, Liuyun stepped forward to comfort: "Girl, don't worry, although there are many people coming and going in this Cuiyun Building, they are not like Liuyun is a thoughtful person, Liuyun will not say anything, they will not find out that the girl is a daughter." ”

Qianruoying nodded slightly, "Well, thank you Miss Liuyun." ”

Liuyun poured a cup of tea for Qianruoying and handed it to her, "Girl, do I know your name?" ”

"Huh? This ......" Qianruoying thought for a while, then smiled at Liuyun and said, "Of course, my name is Qianxue, and Liuyun girl can call me Xue'er." ”

"Flutter!" Liuyun laughed, "The girl asked Liuyun to call you Xue'er, but you called me Liuyun girl, didn't I take advantage of it?" ”

"Haha-it turns out that Miss Liuyun is thinking about this problem, then I'll call you Liuyun too, so that none of us will suffer, right?"

Both laughed.

"The curtain falls on a thousand snows - Cher's name is so nice."

"Yours is good-sounding, and it's more meaningful! Flowing water and clouds - like a free bird. Qian Ruoying smiled back and praised her name.

"Where is freedom!" A hint of loneliness flashed in Liuyun's eyes, and she reluctantly smiled at Qianruoying, "The biggest sorrow of a woman is that she is in this flower building, serving guests all day long, and she can't be tempered." Serve the guests well and you will get the money. ”

Qianruoying was a little annoyed, and suddenly she saw a guqin behind the door, and her eyes lit up, "Liuyun, I'll play a song for you!" ”

"What?" Looking at Qianruoying's eyes, Liuyun reacted, "It turns out that Xue'er can play the piano!" It's just that the strings of that piano have all been broken. ”

"It's okay, I'll fix the piano." Qian Ruoying smiled confidently, stood up and walked towards the piano.

Qian Ruoying closed her eyes, stroked the strings with her hands, and sighed after a while: "What a good piano!" She took the broken string in her hand and attached it to it with great skill.

Liuyun was a little worried that Qianruoying would not be able to fix the piano, so she stood up, but when she saw her skillful technique, she sat down with confidence.

In less than half a pillar of incense, Qianruoying repaired the piano, "Liuyun, wait for me to play a beautiful tear for you." ”

"Beauty tears? What kind of tune is this? Liuyun was a little surprised, she admitted that she had heard countless songs, and there was no song of beautiful tears in her memory.

"You'll know what you're saying." Qian Ruoying did not explain, but set up the piano.

As soon as he saw this formation, Liuyun knew that Dao Qianruoying was a good player at playing the qin, and he was secretly excited.

Liuyun's family will stroke the qin for generations, whether it is a man or a woman, the elders will teach the skills of playing the qin, and their family has also created many famous tunes, it can be said that it is a family of music, but the family is in the middle of the road, she fell to the flower building as an oiran.

"Zheng-" Qian Ruoying tried the timbre, and then played, and Liuyun listened carefully.

As the fingers jumped smartly on the strings, her snake-like forearms and jade fingers crossed a graceful arc in the air, at first, this song seemed to be just an ordinary work, but otherwise, Liuyun guessed the beginning, did not guess the process, let alone the end. As her fingers shook smartly, what was supposed to be a melancholy song unexpectedly showed a cheerful timbre, which made people want to stop......

At first, it was very plain, without a little color, and then slowly became cheerful, like a child who is slowly growing up, and slowly, there are two kinds of timbres, one like the majestic heroism of the mountains, and the other like the gentle flow of water through the mountains. After a while, the sound of the piano was like a whispering woman, and sometimes it was like a woman's mournful voice......

The sound of the piano seemed to be silent, and every shock and shock played into Liuyun's heart, and the silence of Qianruoying was enough to tear her heart.

Under the listening of Liuyun, the song ended.

"That's good!" Liuyun stood up, her face full of approval, she had grown so big, it was the first time she had heard such a beautiful tune, "Xue'er is very accomplished in the piano, right?!" ”

"Liuyun has won the prize!" Qian Ruoying smiled slightly and waved her hand, she did not admit that her attainments in piano skills were very high, at least, she had not surpassed her master until now.

"It's humble." Liuyun pursed her mouth, in her opinion, Qianruoying's piano skills may be unmatched.

"County master, you can't go in!" Suddenly, Qing'er's voice came from outside the door.

"Master Ben is going to meet Miss Liuyun today, if you stop me again, I will put you in prison!"

The two people in the room were slightly surprised, "What's going on?" ”

"It should be that some people don't follow the rules, it's okay, Xue'er, you sit here first, I'll go out and have a look." After Liuyun finished speaking, it was like walking to the door. She has some worries in her heart, she can't be here to smash the field, right?

As soon as the door opened, Liuyun saw Qing'er pulling with a fat man, obviously Qing'er couldn't stop him, and his hair was a little messy.

"What are you doing?" Liuyun's voice made the two stunned.

Qing'er reacted first and ran to Liuyun's side, "Liuyun girl, the county lord doesn't follow the rules of the building and wants to break into the girl's room, Qing'er wants to stop it, so he will ......" Qing'er lowered her head aggrievedly, she thought that Liuyun would blame her.

"Qing'er, it's okay, I don't blame you." Liuyun touched her head, comforted her, and then said sharply to the county lord, "Why doesn't the county lord obey the rules in the building?" Please also ask the county lord to leave immediately, otherwise I will call someone to come. ”

"The charm of Miss Liuyun has made me want to stop, and I have come to drink with the girl today." The county lord has been addicted to the beauty of Liuyun and can't extricate himself.
