Ji Xiaoxiao smiled apologetically when she heard this, "Since this is the case, then Xiaoxiao will go to the performance first, and then ask Brother Ziheng for advice after the performance." ”

Su Ziheng hurriedly said: "Go together, go together." Lest they mistake me for being a little girl's guest in the curtain, I am afraid that I will be beaten by others when I go out in the future. ”

Ji Xiaoxiao saw that Su Ziheng was talking funny, and couldn't help laughing out loud, like a hundred flowers blooming, making people dizzy.

Su Ziheng followed behind Ji Xiaoxiao and Hua Niang, went downstairs, and when he saw Song Jianming, he frowned, and couldn't help laughing: "Brother Jianming, you are uncomfortable with your eyes." ”

Song Jianming ignored his words and asked curiously, "Brother Xian, how is the little girl?" ”

Su Ziheng pretended to be indifferent and said: "At that time, I only cared about writing words, but this little brother didn't pay attention. ”

Song Jianming sighed and pointed at him with his finger, "You, you really don't know how to seize opportunities." ”

Su Ziheng chuckled lightly and didn't speak again.

On the stage, Ji Xiaoxiao gave a blessing to those present, and then said with a smile: "Thank you, the guest officers have been waiting for a long time, Xiaoxiao was fortunate to get a good poem just now, and now take it out for the guest officers to enjoy." ”

In the center of the stage, a maid had already placed Ji Xiaoxiao's special Jiuxiao Ring Peiqin. Ji Xiaoxiao sat in front of the yaoqin, flicked his hand to the people present, and adjusted the sound of the piano.

The Jiuxiao Ring Peiqin immediately made a clanging sound, and the originally noisy lobby suddenly quieted down. There are not many opportunities to hear a little girl perform in public, if you don't cherish the opportunity, you are still making trouble, but you will be angry and kicked out.

Ji Xiaoxiao adjusted the rhythm over and over again, and recalled the words of [Queqiao Immortal Fiber Cloud Tricky] over and over again. According to the rhythm of [Queqiao Immortal], he opened his mouth and sang:

"The clouds are clever, the flying stars spread hatred, and the silver man is dark.

As soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win and there are countless people in the world.

Tenderness is like water, the best period is like a dream, and you can endure the return of the Magpie Bridge.

If the two love for a long time, how can they be there, morning and twilight? ”

The sound gradually rises and rises, covering the yaoqin with both palms, plucking the strings with the right hand, and pressing the strings with the left hand to pick up the sound. Ten fingers flying, the right hand or pick or wipe, or hook or tick, or hit or pluck; The left hand goes up and down, and the moaning and kneading are retreated.

Dozens of fingerings are at your fingertips, and you can play a mesmerizing song. It complements the words and phrases in her mouth, and the cooperation is wonderful.

Let people indulge in the song without forgetting the words she sang.

The aftermath lingers, and the beams are endless.

……

……

Outside Changle Fang.

The thugs of several gambling houses "banged" a sloppy man who was nearly forty years old and sloppy on the street.

One of the leading thugs with a scar on his forehead chirped: "Zhang Liuzhi, you are fucking looking for death." If you don't have money, you dare to come to Changle Fang to gamble? The Ninth Master let me tell you, within three days, if you don't pay the forty taels of silver, you just wait for a broken hand and a leg to pay back. ”

Zhang Liuzhi was screamed by the fallen "oops", and suddenly heard Scar's words, and suddenly didn't dare to scream again, and defended loudly: "Scar Master, this is not right, right?" Didn't I borrow ten denarii? How did it suddenly become forty taels? ”

Scar said viciously: "Did you come out on the first day, and you are so easy to borrow the money you used as the ninth master?" Let me tell you, Zhang Liuzhi, if you don't pay back in three days, don't think that Scar Ye is joking with you. ”

Zhang Liuzhi was stunned, and said, "Forty taels? Where did I get forty taels of silver, and I don't even have four coppers on me now. ”

Scar looked at him coldly, "I don't care about this, if I don't have money, I can sell my house, my wife and my daughter." Anyway, I just have to collect the money, I can't get the money, you know the consequences. ”

After speaking, he ignored Zhang Liuzhi and turned around and walked towards the Changle Fang. When he walked to the door, he said to the two guards guarding the door: "You two give me a good look at him, don't let him in if you don't have money." ”

"Yes, Scar."

Zhang Liuzhi struggled to get up from the ground, staggered down the street, and said in despair: "Forty taels, forty taels of silver, where did I get forty taels of silver." Isn't that killing me? ”

The passers-by on both sides looked at him in disgust and avoided him, for fear that they would be falsely accused by him, or that his sloppy appearance would bring bad luck to themselves.

Suddenly, Zhang Liuzhi heard someone around him call him "Daddy" in surprise, and when he looked up, he saw that it was his daughter Xiaoya, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

As if he had seen a savior, Zhang Liuzhi grabbed Xiaoya's hand tightly and said incoherently: "Money!" Xiaoya, do you have any money on you? Hurry up and give me money to Daddy. ”

Xiaoya's wrist was hurt by his pinch, and she struggled hard, "Dad, let go of me, where is the money on me, the money is all in my sister's." ”

Zhang Liuzhi came back to his senses, let go of the little girl's hand, and said distractedly: "Yes, how can you have money on a little girl." Even if there is, it's on your sister. But Wanqing's girl didn't like me very much, how could she give me money. ”

Zhang Liuzhi knew that Zhang Wanqing was his daughter in name, but in fact he didn't listen to his own words at all. Since the two boys of the Su family won Xiucai, it has become more difficult for him to instruct her. also said that the money in the family belongs to the Su family, how can it be given to the Zhang family.

After all, isn't she afraid that she will gamble and drink if she takes the money. If this little girl hadn't secretly helped herself before, I'm afraid she would have starved to death on the streets.

"It's a pity!" Zhang Liuzhi looked at the little girl beside him, and suddenly shook his head and sighed.

Xiaoya looked at Zhang Liuzhi's face with a blue and purple face, and asked timidly, "Daddy, have you been beaten again?" ”

Zhang Liuzhi ignored her words with a cold face, and the two walked silently for a while, and he suddenly asked, "Xiaoya, are you okay in the Su family now?" ”

Xiaoya shook her head, "Not good! The last time the uncle went out, he was smashed with a hole in his head, and his sister used a lot of jewelry, and mortgaged the Bailu Academy left by the Su family to the Zhao family, and scraped together some money to save the uncle. ”

But Lang Zhong, who treated his uncle, said that he might have lost his soul, and he couldn't remember many things when he woke up. Uncle himself said that I am afraid that I will not be able to participate in the imperial examination next year. ”

"Now the family still owes Mrs. Wu three months' rent, and yesterday Mrs. Wu came to collect the debt, saying that if we don't pay the rent at the end of the month, they will kick us out. When the time comes, Bailu Academy can't go back, what should we do? ”

Xiaoya also showed a blank look on her face, not knowing what to do in the future.

Zhang Liuzhi's face changed when he heard this, he didn't expect such a drastic change in the Su family during this time. Originally, they wanted to expect to get some money from the Su family to tide over the difficulties in front of them, but they were all too busy to protect themselves, how could they have money to lend themselves?

"Do you really have to wait until three days later to be interrupted by the people of Changle Fang? In that case, I'm afraid it's really not far from death. Zhang Liuzhi's heart fluctuated violently, he hadn't lived enough, how could he be willing to die.

A sentence that Scar said suddenly came to his mind: If you don't have money, you can sell your house, sell your wife and daughter.

Zhang Liuzhi took a few steps behind, and glanced at the little girl who was already growing in front of him, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
