Chapter VIII
"Bang" came from a room with the sound of smashing glasses, followed by a roar: "Lao Tzu is here to have fun, let you play a good song, you play some sad songs, what do you mean?" Your old son is dead? Call your hostess! ”
Bingyan hurriedly walked in, looking at the scene in front of him, the cup on the ground was broken, Yuexi stood aside and lowered her head, the customer glared at her angrily, Bingyan pulled Yuexi behind her, and said to the customer with a smile: "Yo, Li Yuanwai, as for such a big anger, who provoked you?" ”
Li Yuanwai said angrily: "You still ask me, you ask her, I asked her to play a tune for me, what is she playing?" I'm here to have fun, not to mourn anyone! ”
"Li Yuanwai, don't be angry, I'll be angry and hurt your body so that I'll be free of charge for your consumption tonight, and how about letting the moon come and serve you two songs?"
As soon as I heard that it was free, and there was the Moon Girl, Li Yuanwai's happy eyebrows were raised, the Moon Girl can usually be said to be a song of daughters, and she doesn't even pick up customers very much, this time she can take advantage of it, and nodded again and again: "Okay, okay!" ”
Bingyan asked the little girl to call the moon, pulled Yuexi to the backyard, and was just about to speak when Yuexi interrupted: "Mom, I'm sorry, I don't know what's going on, I obviously want to play the tune ordered by the customer, but I can't ...... while playing."
"Alas~ It's not good for me, I don't think it's good for you to be bored in the room, let you come out and move, but I didn't expect ......, it's okay, you can rest for a while, and wait until you are adjusted! Let's go back to our room and rest! ”
A month has passed since Yuexi angered customers that day, Liuyue took a string of sugar gourds, and when she walked into the backyard, she saw Yuexi sitting on the swing in a daze, Yuexi has been like this for more than a month, Liuyue sighed, and then quietly walked behind Yuexi, stretched out her hand in front of Yuexi from behind, and there was a string of red sugar gourds in her hand, and shook it in front of Yuexi, seeing that she didn't react, she walked in front of her and patted her, and Yuexi came back to her senses!
"Na, your favorite sugar gourd, the largest bunch of hawthorns I specially picked!" After speaking, he stuffed the sugar gourd into Yuexi's hand! Yuexi took the sugar gourd and said thank you, and ate in a daze!
Liuyue can't see her like this, Mingyue Creek used to be as fun-loving as her, but she was depressed during this time, she had to be pulled out of the door today, what should I do if I was sick, thinking like this, Liuyue pulled her up and walked out: "Let's go, let's go to the street!" ”
Yuexi broke free of her hand: "Sister Liuyue, go by yourself, I don't want to go out!" ”
"No, you haven't been out for more than a month, you used to like to go out to play more than me, and if you don't go out again, it's boring, take a walk, you should accompany me, are you willing to let me alone?"
Yuexi just wanted to refuse, but when she saw her big eyes blinking at Liuyue, pouting slightly, and looking pitiful, Yuexi sighed: "Alas~ Okay, you wait for me, I'll go back to the room and get some silver!" ”
"No, no, I'll pay for today's consumption!" After that, he pulled Yuexi out of the door!
Since asking for his mother's consent that day, Meng Xingqian has been looking for people all over the streets every morning, almost all the streets and alleys have not been found, and in the afternoon he went to Qingfeng Slope to wait for an afternoon, and occasionally went to other Qinglou in the evening to ask if there was a girl named Yuexi, and almost all the Qinglou in Ruicheng for more than a month, they all said no! With the last bit of hope, I came to the busiest street in Ruicheng, which is the only one I haven't looked for, and I don't know if I can find it!
From a distance, I saw a person who was similar to Yuexi's body, who was being dragged around by another girl, these days I have met several girls who are similar to her but not her, thinking that this is just a similar figure, approaching her with a trace of expectation, the girl suddenly turned around, saw her face clearly, it was her, it was the person she had been thinking about for a long time, and she was just about to call her, she saw that it was herself but turned around and ran away, and the girl who was with her also ran away with her inexplicably!
Meng Xingqian hurriedly ran over, for fear that if he missed it this time, he would never find her again, but he couldn't see her when he walked to a three-story house, looked up at the signboard - Yuexing Pavilion, walked forward and knocked on the door, it was a door opened by a lady!
"Childe, we are not open during the day, please come back at night!"
After finishing speaking, he was about to close the door, Meng Xingqi stretched out his hand to block the door that was about to be closed: "Auntie, I'm here to find someone, please be accommodating!" ”
"Find someone to come at night, and the girls are resting at this hour!" Pushing him away, he closed the door, looking at the closed door in front of him, Meng Xingqian smiled, and then went home!
Meng Xingqi came here again after the day was darkened, looking at the brightly lit and magnificent Moon Star Pavilion in front of him, he mustered up the courage to walk in, and a woman walked over as soon as he entered the door: "Yo, this little brother is really handsome, it's the first time to come to our Moon Star Pavilion!" Do you want to drink or listen to music? ”
Meng Xingqian walked away a little, about an arm's length away from her, and saluted: "This sister, I'm not here to have fun!" I'm just looking for a girl! ”
The woman covered her mouth and smiled: "What the little brother said is so interesting, come to our Moon Star Pavilion not to find a girl but to find a prostitute?" We don't! Say, which girl did you like in our Moon Star Pavilion? ”
Meng Xingqi's face turned red when he was teased: "I want to find Yuexi, I'm tired of my sister!"
The woman looked him up and down: "Are you looking for Yuexi?" ”
"Exactly!"
"We don't have a girl named Yuexi here, son, please go back!" I also grew up watching Yuexi, thinking of Yuexi's sullenness during this time, everyone has lost a lot of weight, presumably it has something to do with the person in front of him, and he is not polite to speak!
Seeing that the woman was leaving, Meng Xingqian stopped her: "I saw her come in today, so I dared to take the liberty of disturbing, please ask my sister to be accommodating and let me see Yuexi!" ”
The woman looked at him: "Wait, I'll ask!" ”
It didn't take long for another gorgeously dressed woman with an extraordinary temperament to come up to him and ask, "Are you looking for Yuexi?" ”
Meng Xingqian saluted: "Exactly, I don't know who my sister is?" ”
"My name is Bingyan is the proprietress here, son, go back, Yuexi is not a guest now!"
"The hostess is fine, I'm not here to accompany Yuexi today! I have something to see Yuexi, please ask the boss lady to be accommodating! ”
Seeing that he spoke politely and politely, Bingyan was not too embarrassed, he thought for a while and asked, "Do you really want to see Yuexi?" What if she doesn't want to see you? ”
"But beg the boss lady to give her another chance!"
"You come with me!" After speaking, he took Meng Xingqian to a table in a corner of the store, asked him to sit down and left, and brought a jar of wine after a while: "Childe, this is the strongest wine in my Yuexing Pavilion, as long as you drink it, I will ask Yuexi if she wants to see you!" ”
Meng Xingqian looked at Bingyan: "Boss, I'm really embarrassed, my mother doesn't allow me to drink outside!" ”
"Then son, please go back! Be a son today and never come! "After that, I picked up the wine jar and left!
Meng Xingqian shouted to her: "The boss lady stays, I'll drink!" ”
He took the wine jar and opened the lid and muttered, "I drank it, and it didn't take long to finish it, and Bingyan applauded and said, "Childe has a good amount of wine!" Before the words fell, I heard a plop and Meng Xingqian fell to the ground! Bingyan couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, and called someone to help him to rest!
Meng Xingqian was woken up by a burst of laughter, woke up with a splitting headache, uncomfortable, sat up after a while, looked at the unfamiliar room and remembered last night's events, opened the window and saw a few girls downstairs sitting together talking and laughing, only one person was out of place, I didn't see her laughing, but sat with a sad face, and took a closer look at the Yuexi that I didn't think about day and night, just opened the door and was about to go downstairs, Bingyan came over, looked at the Bingyan in front of him and asked, "Is it better?" ”
Meng Xingqian nodded: "Thank you boss lady for your concern!" I had a headache when I first woke up, but now it's much better! ”
"Okay, let's go back!"
"Boss, didn't you say last night that as long as I drank wine, I would be allowed to see Yuexi?"
"I never said that you would let you see Yuexi after you drank wine, what I said was that as long as you drank wine, I would go and ask Yuexi if she would like to see you for you!"
Meng Xingqian was silent for a while: "Is it that Yuexi doesn't want to see me?" Bingyan nodded, Meng Xingqian looked out the window: "Boss, it's almost noon today, I didn't return last night, my mother must be anxious, I'll go back first, please ask the boss lady to tell Yuexi, I'll come back in the evening!" After speaking, he took out the hairpin he bought for Yuexi that day from his arms and handed it to Bingyan: "I have to trouble the proprietress to help me give this thing to Yuexi!" ”
After seeing Meng Xingqian leave, Bingyan came to the backyard, sat in front of Yuexi and handed over the hairpin just given by Meng Xingqian to Yuexi, and then said, "You really don't want to see him?" Yuexi shook her head!
"Yuexi, how to choose is your freedom, as long as you don't regret it, no matter what choice you make, we will always support you!"
Yuexi hugged her movingly: "Mom, thank you!" ”
From that day on, Meng Xingqian would come to the Yuexing Pavilion every night, order a pot of tea and sit on one side for a night, and then go back when the Yuexing Pavilion closed, and come when the door is opened, and never order a girl, just sit silently, sometimes Yuexi performs on stage, he listens most seriously, as if he saw her dancing with the wind in Qingfeng Slope before!
On this day, Meng Xingqian came to the Yuexing Pavilion as usual, ordered a pot of tea, and just sat down, a little girl came: "Son, our Yuexi girl invites you to the backyard to talk!" ”
Xingqi was overjoyed, and came to the backyard to see Yuexi sitting at a stone table, with his back to him, Meng Xingqian stepped forward and said excitedly: "Yuexi, you are finally willing to see me!" I ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yuexi: "Master Meng, please take the things on the table back, don't come back in the future, this place is not where you should come!" ”
"You're here, how can I not come, Yuexi I know you're still blaming me, I'll still come every day in the future until you forgive me!"
Yuexi stood up, but still turned his back to him and said: "I have never blamed Childe, Childe's reaction that day is also human, but Childe will not come again in the future, and I will not see you again!" ”
After speaking, he was about to leave, but he was hugged by Meng Xingqi!
