Chapter 70: Stranger in the Tea House (1)

Cao Fu looked at me inexplicably, thought for a while, suddenly laughed, stopped asking, and turned to go downstairs. I think he'll be wrong.

The pianist Yu Zhi girl of the drunken Hongjian teahouse, the reputation in Daxing City has not long been spread, and people say that her piano skills are outstanding, and she smells like a natural sound, so the business of the teahouse has also improved a lot. These Turks may have come here to hear what the sounds of heaven are like, but Chai Shao definitely didn't come here just to listen to the qin.

I now sometimes go downstairs to sit in the hall occasionally, for nothing else, for fear that there will be troublemakers in the teahouse to go to the piano room on the second floor, and by the way, I also listen to the news of the Turks.

The Turks were far less interested in tea than in wine, and they were generally brought once by Chai Shao and never came back. Among these mixed aliens, there is a guest who is very eye-catching - his appearance is different from that of ordinary Central Plains people, at first glance he feels like a martial artist on the battlefield, but this person is dressed as a scribe, with a long robe with wide sleeves and a jade crown on his head, he looks a little nondescript, and his beard is very beautifully trimmed, I think he is very similar to Yang Xuangan, but Yang Xuangan is a little more eye-catching than him.

Originally, I didn't notice him at first, but he appeared in Drunken Hongchu for five days in a row, sitting for most of the day, and he was just alone.

I asked Chai Shao if he knew him, and Chai Shao shook his head and told me that I hadn't seen him at all.

On the fifth day, he finally revealed his intentions, for he began to ask the shopkeeper who the girl who was playing the piano upstairs.

I sat very close to the counter, so I heard the whole conversation between this man and Cao Fu.

The man first asked: "Boss, when I heard the sound of the piano in the downstairs, Yayun is very good, I don't know what the person who caress the piano?" Can you see me? ”

Although his words were very eloquent, I felt strange for no reason when I heard them.

Cao Fu smiled: "I'm really sorry, I can't agree to this request." ”

Then the guest asked, "Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could make harmony with the sound of the flute?" ”

Cao Fu was just about to answer, in the hall with the sound of the piano sounded from far and near sound, just in harmony with the sound of the piano, I followed the sound and found that the sound of the flute was not from outside the teahouse, but from the flute in the hand of Chai Shao, who had been sitting behind me, he didn't know when he had stood up.

Chai Shao had apparently heard the strange guest's conversation with Cao Fu. I saw him standing lightly, his eyes looking at the direction of the piano room on the second floor, and his mood was not affected by the conversation just now.

For a while, the piano flute and Ming in the hall, I actually felt that the cooperation between the two of them was perfect.

Cao Fu looked at the strange guest from the side and said with a smile: "The guest officer said well, it really complements each other seamlessly." ”

The guest scratched his head helplessly, looking at Chai Shao with some jealousy, but said nothing, as if he was afraid of ruining the atmosphere in the teahouse.

It wasn't until the end of the song that I noticed that the hall was surprisingly quiet, and it took a while for people to clap and laugh.

The strange guest walked up to Chai Shao and bowed deeply, and arched his hand: "Childe's flute, fresh and elegant, and the sound of the Yuzhi girl's piano is quite compatible, and I bow down." ”

Chai Shao glanced at him disdainfully and said, "In the next trick, Mr. has an overreputation." ”

The strange guest was not angry, but smiled: "I admire Childe's temperament, but I want to be friends with Childe, I don't know what it is?" ”

Chai Shao waved his hand and said, "Want to make friends with me?" Then please Mr. change your problem of chewing words, I am a rough person, I can't learn it. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter from the second floor.

The strange guest looked Chai Shao up and down a few times to make sure that he was not laughing at himself, and then arched his hand and said: "This is better, in Xia Shiji, what about you?" ”

Chai Shao was originally a person who made friends when he had friends, and he said very unceremoniously when he heard it: "My name is Chai Shao, and I will give me a lot of advice." ”

Shi Ji was stunned and said, "You are Chai Shao?" ”

Chai Shao asked rhetorically, "Why do you know me?" ”

Shi Ji waved his hand again and again: "No, no. ”

At this time, I couldn't help but want to join in the fun, so I walked to Chai Shao's table with a cup and sat down and smiled: "When will you learn this?" ”

Chai Shao said with a smile: "The army is boring, a little pastime, and it will come in handy today." He said his last words and leaned into my ear and lowered his voice.

Shi Ji looked at the second floor and said, "I really love Miss Yuzhi, so I ......"

"What did you say?" Chai Shao asked rhetorically without waiting for him to finish speaking, his tone was not necessarily eager, but the hostility was very obvious.

While speaking, Cao Fu came over and said with a smile: "A few sons, Miss Yuzhi has invited the three of you to the upstairs elegant seat to talk about it." ”

Shi Ji listened and said to Cao Fu: "Thank you, boss." ”

While talking, the three of us came to a private room upstairs, and after we sat down for a while, Sanniang came in from outside the door, staring intently at Chai Shao for a full minute before looking away.

Shi Ji saw Sanniang's eyes straightened, and he looked at it for a while before saying: "The girl's piano skills are really wonderful, and I admire it so much." ”

Sanniang smiled, but didn't talk to him, just looked at Chai Shao and said, "Your Xiao was not so good before." ”

When Chai Shao heard her say this, he blushed a little embarrassed, and I realized that Chai Shao had performed this for Sanniang before.

Although Sanniang and Chai Shao's affection has been very obvious, Shi Ji seems to have not seen it, or doesn't want to see it, his attempt at Sanniang has not diminished at all, and he still stares at Sanniang, I can't wait to pull him out when I look at it, but this is too rude, I can't smash Cao Fu's signboard after all.

Shi Ji saw that Sanniang ignored him, turned to me and said, "I don't know what the son is called?" ”

I arched my hand and said, "It was built in Xia Li." ”

He was stunned for a moment and said, "You are the son of the head of the Tang Mansion?" This teahouse is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, you ...... Hehe. ”

He stopped before he could finish his words, and I thought it was very strange when I heard it.

Sanniang finally turned around, looked at him carefully, and said with a smile: "Mr. is not a local, right?" ”

Shi Ji was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "The girl is so smart, she is ...... It's a native of Liangzhou. ”

From his attitude towards Sanniang, I deduced that he should have come to the teahouse for Sanniang before. Because of knowing me and Chai Shao, he finally didn't sit alone, and when he said goodbye, he said that he would come tomorrow.

Sanniang and I glanced at each other and shook our heads helplessly, while Chai Shao looked at Shi Ji a little unhappily.

After Shi Ji left, Cao Fu came in and said to Sanniang: "Sanniang, since you came, the teahouse has increased its profits a lot, you see ......"

Before he finished speaking, Chai Shao suddenly stood up and arched his hand towards Cao Fu: "If you have something to do, let's leave first!" ”

Then he explained to Sanniang: "Today, the emperor is going to hold a banquet to entertain the Turks, I have to go back and watch." With that, he left.

After Chai Shao left, Cao Fu said half of what he said and continued, "Even the Turkic princes are very kind to you." ”

Sanniang and I were stunned at the same time: "Turkic prince? ”

Cao Fu said: "The Shi Ji who came just now is not called Shi Ji at all, he is Ashina Dujishi, the son of the Khan of Qimin. ”

Sanniang said: "If he is really a Turkic prince, how can Chai Shao not know him?" ”

Cao Fu smiled and said: "He didn't say he was coming, and he wasn't among the Turkic missions on the mission, so it's normal that Chai Shao doesn't know him." ”

I smiled and said, "When did Boss Cao become concerned about these things?" ”

He glanced at me, but did not answer my words, but said to him: "This prince admires the culture of the Central Plains, and does not want to be bound by the complicated etiquette of the court, so he changed his appearance and came alone. ”

Sanniang said: "I don't think he has a good heart at all." ”

Cao Fu and I looked at each other and smiled.

The next day he came again, followed by another man.

I was so surprised upstairs that I almost dropped the cup in my hand, and it was none other than Xu Ren who was sitting at the same table with him, but Xu Ren, who killed himself in the underground of the teahouse!

Although I knew that it wasn't really Xu Ren who committed suicide back then, I still felt like a ghost when I saw another person who was exactly the same appearing in front of me.

I saw Cao Fu quietly beckoning them to sit down, and then immediately came upstairs to find me. From this point of view, Cao Fu was obviously very shocked by Xu Ren's appearance.

We know Xu Ren, but Xu Ren doesn't know us. Compared to the suicide impostor, this Xu Ren looked much more robust, Li Jing had met him with the Turks before, and now he was indeed walking with the Turkic prince.

As for what happened in the Qingyu Pavilion a long time ago, although it has been a long time, I still feel palpitations when I think about it now, probably because of the danger I encountered.

Cao Fu saw me but returned to his impassive appearance, and said with a smile: "Doctor Xu is back!" The voice was inevitably a little excited.

Now I knew that his mood was completely different from mine, and his reaction when he saw Xu Ren was happy.

Cao Fu's words calmed me down a lot, and I immediately thought of Ruoxiu, Xu Ren was her grandfather, and she was sad for a while when her impostor grandfather died, and I didn't know how to comfort her at that time, after all, I didn't know how to comfort people, and I didn't dare to go too far.

Cao Fu was stunned when he saw me, and said with a smile: "Childe, since Dr. Xu is back, he must not leave again, should you go to meet him?" ”

I thought about it, and it seemed to make sense, but I didn't know why, and I was a little afraid to go.

Downstairs, Xu Ren and Shi Ji didn't know what they were talking about while drinking tea, I settled down, went downstairs and went straight to them and said to Xu Ren: "May I ask the old man, are you Dr. Xu Ren?" ”

Xu Ren looked at me and was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "How does Childe recognize old decay?" ”

Shi Ji asked when he saw me on the side, and said to Xu Ren with a smile: "Doctor Xu, you have been in seclusion for so long, I didn't expect that you can still be recognized at a glance now." ”

I was about to speak, when I looked up and saw Xun Jian coming out of the back hall.
