Chapter 2: First Encounter
"Ah, girl, why are you asleep, there is still a game at night, you are not ready to prepare?" Mom opened the door of her room and found Mo Dye sleeping on her bed, so she woke up Mo Dye.
"Mom, what's the top brand going to compete tonight?" Mo Ran sat up in a mess and looked at his mother in a daze.
"The red girl said: Tonight is more than dancing, three songs." Mom told the truth.
"Oh, dancing, I'm really not very good at it, does my mother have dancing clothes to lend me? I've just come here for this set of clothes, and I've taken a shower once in 10 days......" Ink Dye looked at her mother.
"I'll prepare these, and I'll prepare the hot water later, you wait first." Mom shook her head helplessly, thinking: Why did you meet this girl?
"Then it's going to be a hassle for Mom." Mo Dye immediately laughed.
In the evening, the entrance of the Red Man Square was crowded with people, and even children looked inside.
Mom commanded in the hall: "Open the door, good wine and good food are greeting, 3 taels of silver for one person, 4 taels for two people, 5 taels for 3 people, give silver to people, and don't pick up guests tonight." ”
As soon as the Redman Square opened the door, it was stopped, and my mother said at the door: "Ladies and gentlemen, the Redman Square will not accept guests tonight, only receive judges, tonight is the top card challenge, so everyone forgive me, one person 3 taels of silver, two people are cheaper than 4 taels of silver, and three people are cheaper than 5 taels of silver, everyone can enter by handing over the money to the girl at our door." ”
Mo Ran heard his mother's shouting upstairs and laughed: "A businessman is a businessman, and he never forgets to make money."
When they heard about it, they all flocked to the door.
Qi Xiao and Qin Zhongqing walked to the door and were stopped, and when their mother saw it, they invited the two of them in and led them to the private room on the second floor: "Qi Gongzi, Qin Gongzi, thank you two for coming tonight, you are a special guest judge tonight, wait and enjoy the performance, and cast a precious vote." Mom smiled and poured water for the two: "The two of you drink first, this is the dragon well before the rain, specially prepared for the two, then I will go down first to get busy." As he spoke, he bent down and exited the private room.
"Look at this situation, there are many people tonight, I just saw Da Sikong and King Yun sitting in the private room over there, and the private room on the second floor should be all princes and nobles, the face of this red man square should not be underestimated." Qin Zhongqing drank tea and said slowly.
"It shows that the Red Man Fang is very popular, and the Qinglou is originally a place where people from all walks of life can come, and many people run to the Qinglou when they are angry with their wives at home, which is normal, otherwise the Qinglou will be meaningless." Qi Xiao waved his hand.
"Ladies and gentlemen, as well as the distinguished guests upstairs, good evening, tonight is the top challenge of the Red Man Square, divided into three rounds, three tracks, two girls compete to dance, this is the challenger let the red girl come out, I hope both of them will not let you down." Mom bowed: "Now please invite the two girls to play." "Mom stepped down.
The red girl is from the right side of the stage, and the ink dye is from the left side of the stage. One wears a red dress, the other wears a pink dress, the red girl's dress is customized to show her figure just right, and the ink-dyed dress is temporarily found by her mother, and it fits well.
"Hello everyone, slave Hong'er." The Red Maiden bowed.
"Hello everyone, my name is Qingyan, please forgive me for what the little girl is doing badly in a while, after all, I am not as experienced as Sister Hong'er." Ink Dye also bowed decently, and Ink Dye processed the sound, making many men crispy after listening to it.
"This girl's voice is going to be good, she shouldn't be the top brand, I want her tonight." Qi Xiao pointed to the ink dye and said to Qin Zhongqing.
"This girl looks like it's still everywhere, are you sure? Don't you dislike the place? Qin Zhongqing looked at the ink dye carefully, and there was nothing abnormal, but he also nodded again and again, thinking that the voice was good.
"Then you go, I'll come back tomorrow." Qi Xiao patted Qin Zhongqing's shoulder and said righteously.
"What do you want? I don't have that fetish. Take a good look. Qin Zhongqing patted Qi Xiao's head.
"Now let's start the first show, and I'll pick up the song." After my mother finished speaking, she asked people to pick up the box, reached out and took one, and displayed it in front of the public, "Beauty Yao, let's start, the band is ready." Mom stepped back and took a sip of water.
At the end of the song, "Everyone who votes for the red girl puts the wooden board into the box, and the girl who votes for the green smoke puts the bamboo board into the box, and when the ticket is finished, the vote in the hands of the VIP upstairs is 5 votes." The two girls took a break upstairs. He motioned for the girls to start collecting.
A quarter of an hour later, "the girls have finished collecting and are now putting all the boards in the boxes on the stage." Mom watched the girls fill the stage.
I was surprised to see the result, but I still had to accept it, "Ladies and gentlemen, the result is obvious, let's congratulate Qingyan Girl on her victory." ”
When the red girl heard the result, she glared at the ink dye, and then ran out to see the bamboo boards all over the stage, and was instantly disappointed, but thinking that there were still two rounds left, and she still had a chance, she nodded to her mother.
"Girls, the results are out, put the board away. The following is from the above VIPs Qi Gongzi and Qin Gongzi out of the repertoire, please. Mom gestured to Qi Xiao's private room.
"Qin Zhongqing, you can choose the tracks, it's a little more difficult." Qi Xiao drank a cup of tea and made a gesture of please.
"Then you're welcome, choose running water." Qin Zhongqing motioned for Qi Xiao to go out and announce.
Qi Xiao ran out: "Let's choose the song of flowing water." After saying that, he didn't go back, and stood at the guardrail.
"Okay, thank you for Qi Gongzi's question, this one is really difficult, but I don't think it's difficult for the two girls." Mom was nervous, so she ran away.
'Running water is my specialty, see how you win me?' Thinking so, the red girl walked up to the stage and bowed confidently.
When I heard the track, I was a little distressed, I hadn't heard it before, but I thought, 'Do you want to stump me?' Ink Dye also walked up to the stage and bowed.
The red girl began to dance when she heard the song, and Mo Ran listened to it for a while before she began to dance, and the red girl felt that she had won, and smiled more confidently.
This song is finished, "Ladies and gentlemen, I haven't heard this song of the little girl, and the dance just now is a temporary choreography, I hope you don't mind." After Mo Ran finished speaking, he bowed and stepped down, and the red girl bowed and stepped down with more confidence after hearing this.
"I think it's more difficult than the red girl, and the completeness is also high, I think the green smoke girl wins."
"I haven't heard the explanation that the preparation is not sufficient, although the dance is good, I still feel that the red girl dances well."
Mom quietly walked onto the stage: "It seems that everyone is very interested in your two girls' dances, so now you have to start voting." ”
A quarter of an hour later, "Everybody's done casting, girls, start pouring." Mom gestured.
"It seems that the votes of the two are very close, and it is impossible to see who wins, so let's start singing now." Mom motioned for the girls to start reading.
"One vote for green smoke, one vote for green smoke......"
"One vote for Hong'er, one vote for Hong'er......"
Half an hour passed, and the results came out, with 478 votes for Qingyan Girl and 479 votes for Hong'er Girl.
"The difference between the two girls is one vote, Miss Hong'er wins this game, everyone congratulates Hong'er." Mom was the first to applaud.
"Wait a minute, I haven't voted yet." On the second floor, there was a voice from the private room opposite Qi Xiao's room.
"Which girl is the guest officer going to the bakery going to vote for?" Mom thought it was Hong'er.
"It seems that my mother has been disappointed, I want to vote for Qingyan girl, my vote is 5 votes, I'm sorry everyone, the game ended early." Da Sikong said in the private room.
The red girl sat down on the ground and collapsed when she heard the result.
"Mom, I have a request, since everyone paid for it, then I will play the piano, and let the Qingyan girl come out and dance two songs?" Da Sikong looked at his mother.
"No problem, no problem, that's as it should be. I'm going to ask Miss Qingyan to come down now. Mom hurried away.
The following slice is good.
"Thank you for the favor of the guest officer upstairs, please play the song below." Ink Dye walks down from the stairs and makes an inviting gesture.
Da Sikong played faster and faster, and the ink dyeing posture became faster and faster, and finally Qu Qingyan felt a little tired, thinking that this was much easier than training, so he didn't care, but all this fell in Da Sikong's eyes.
After the two songs were played, Da Sikong got up and walked away with the piano, and was the first to leave.
When my mother saw it, she immediately came down from upstairs: "Ladies and gentlemen, it's already very late, inform in advance tonight that you will not pick up guests, everyone be careful on the road, and at the same time inform everyone that from tomorrow onwards, the top card of the Red Man Fang will be Qingyan Girl." Mom motioned for the girls to evacuate.
Qi Xiao was waiting for his mother on the second floor: "Mom, will I invite Miss Qingyan to swim in the lake with me tomorrow?" ”
"I have to ask Miss Qingyan before I can reply to Childe." Mom gave it up, but actually thought: I don't dare to cut it first and then play.
"Mom, who is this son? Invite me to swim the lake tomorrow. "Ink Dye came up from downstairs just in time to hear it.
"This son is the only son of Prime Minister Qi and the younger brother of the current Queen Mother, and he is a great figure." Mom immediately appreciated, both of them were unprovoked lords: "You talk first, I'll take a look at Hong'er." ”
"Hello Childe, little girl Qingyan, thanks to Childe's love, I am fortunate to be able to swim in the lake with Childe." Qingyan returned to Qi Xiao respectfully.
"Boy, people agreed, and you still don't want to say it." Qin Zhongqing patted Qi Xiao's head.
"Girl, you are so beautiful, it looks even more beautiful up close, then I will come to the Red Man Square tomorrow to pick up the girl." Qi Xiao looked straight at the ink dye.
"Childe said and laughed, the little girl is an ordinary person, of course, she can't compare to the two distinguished guests, so tomorrow's little woman will wait for the childe." Qingyanxue just made a move from her mother.
Qi Xiao and Qin Zhongqing were the last to walk out of the Red Man Square.
At the end of the day, Qingyan got up, asked her mother for two clothes, and began to dress up, and her mother was also very attentive to the room next to her to the ink dye, and after getting up early to help the ink dye run before and after, she kept telling the ink dye: "Don't offend Qi Xiao Gongzi, remember?" "I listened to it many times in the morning.
"Mom, Qi Gongzi's carriage has arrived at the corner of the street." This voice made Mo Ran breathe a sigh of relief, and finally he didn't have to listen to his mother's nagging. Hurry up and run downstairs.
When he arrived at the door, Qi Xiao was already at the door, and when Mo Ran saw Qi Xiao, he smiled slightly: "Good morning Qi Gongzi, I didn't delay Gongzi by visiting the lake today, right?" ”
"No, no, serving the beauty is what my son is willing." Qi Xiao said righteous words.
Then Fumo dyed the carriage.
Half an hour later, when they arrived at the lake on the outskirts of the city, Mo Dye saw the boat in the lake from a distance, and the crimson boat accompanied the green of the two sides of the river and the lake water complemented each other, which looked particularly beautiful, and the two of them walked on the boat together.
When the boat walked to the middle of the lake, he heard a melodious tune, and Mo Ran ran to the bow of the boat to find the source of the tune, because this is very similar to what he heard when he was a child, Mo Ran looked around, and saw a man in white under the willow tree by the lake playing the yaoqin, when Mo Ran saw him, he also looked up and saw Mo Ran, just that glance, Mo Ran's heart was pounding, and he immediately took it back, but he still wanted to see it, and the man also had something strange in his heart after seeing it, but the long years of palace life had made him unable to show anything, and then played, And the ink dye danced on the bow of the boat with the tune, Qi Xiao just happened to see this scene when he came out of the room at this time, glanced at the shore, and immediately bowed, Mo Yanyu nodded slightly.
