Section 6 Seeing and Not Seeing
Hu Quan listened to the sound of the flute, although he thought it was very good, but it didn't stop there, he still couldn't figure out how Yang Chao could let that rich businessman see Liu Rushi.
The scholar is much stronger than Hu Quan, he can hear it, this music is very good, but he can't figure out how Yang Chao can let his son-in-law see Liu Rusi.
Although the eyes of the obsessive scholar were always staring at the window on the second floor, listening to Yang Chao's music, sorrow also appeared on his face, and he seemed even more sad.
When Yang Chao saw the scholar's expression, he knew that he had made the right bet.
This piece is very well chosen, it is the taste of these crazy men and women, I believe that Liu Ru will definitely not be moved.
……
Meixianglou is a two-story building close to the street, Li Xiangjun lives on the second floor, and Liu Ru is naturally there.
"Sister, don't you really see him?"
At this time, in the room facing the street on the second floor of Meixianglou, Li Xiangjun was holding a paper fan, and said lightly.
Liu Ru is standing by the window, there is a high table under the window, a few high windows, outside the window is the street scene, it is the scholar, but Liu Ru has not opened the window once these days.
Liu Ru was wearing a fine pale green silk bichia, and below was a looming peach-colored skirt, a pair of red sleeves flowed out of Bijia's shoulders calmly, winding down to cover a pair of arms, and at the end, a pair of green jade hands stretched out from the silk sleeves, holding a teacup in his hand.
Liu Ru took a shallow sip of the white porcelain teacup, and then put the teacup on top of the high table.
Putting down the cup, Liu Ru sighed: "I don't see him, it's for his good." ”
Li Xiangjun snorted, she had some feelings for that son, who was a wealthy businessman in Hangzhou, had a thousand looms at home, and could spin a famous yarn like cicada wing yarn.
A few years ago, the son saw Liu Ru is in the West Lake once, fell in love at first sight, and chased left and right from then on.
This time, I heard that Liu Ru was in Nanjing, and he actually chased him to Nanjing.
After I couldn't see him, I stood in front of Meixianglou every day, and one stop was a day.
With such a handsome son chasing, Li Xiangjun couldn't help but feel a little envious in her heart, although there was no shortage of suitors around her, but she had never seen such a sincere one.
"Sister, let's see you once. If you don't see him, he won't go. ”
Li Xiangjun couldn't help but persuade, sometimes she felt that if Liu Ru followed this person, it might also be a good destination.
Liu Ru shook his head: "I already have a heart. ”
Li Xiangjun sighed secretly in her heart, her sister is too angry, she has seen too many men, the first man Zhou Daodeng is a university scholar, put her on his lap all day long, and taught him poetry and songs, although Zhou Daodeng was sold to the Qinglou by his mother after his death, but the people he met later were all great talents like Chen Zilong and Song Zhengyu.
Now what she really loves is Qian Qianyi, the giant of Donglin.
Although Qian Qianyi has been dismissed, his article style is first-class, and he once had a flower in the title of the gold list, and the Qian family is also a wealthy family in Jiangnan, whether it is more literary or than the family, the son of this merchant family is far behind.
Qian Qianyi and Liu Ru hit it off at first sight and admired each other.
However, Liu Ru is only twenty-three years old this year, and Qian Qianyi is already a fifty-nine-year-old man.
Liu Ru does not dislike Qian Qianyi and is about to die, and is willing to commit himself to him.
Qian Qianyi was afraid that Liu Ru was born in the dust, and he never dared to ignore the worldly concept and marry Liu Ru, a woman from a humble background, back home.
Qian Qianyi even began to avoid Liu Ruyi, but he avoided it for a year.
This made Liu Ru very sad, but she was tenacious and unwilling to give up.
In Li Xiangjun's opinion, Qian Qianyi is naturally very good, but Qian Qianyi is a Confucian in Donglin, and he is from a famous family, and his family is too high, so it is impossible to have any results with Liu Ru.
On the contrary, such a merchant family has fewer family concepts, and it is easier to accept a woman like Liu Ru.
It's just that Li Xiangjun knows that with Sister Liu's character, she won't like a rich boy who has no literary talent, in her eyes, those rich sons are just a bunch of delicious walking corpses waiting to die.
Suddenly, the door opened quietly, and a little girl walked in gently, sent a piece of paper, whispered a few words in Li Xiangjun's ear, and then quietly withdrew.
Li Xiangjun took the paper, didn't open it, and handed it to Liu Ruis directly: "Yao, it's for you." ”
Liu Ru was in a melancholy mood at this time, she faintly heard a flute sound, looming, trance, lingering and compassionate, which triggered the sorrow in her heart.
At this time, Li Xiangjun handed over a piece of paper, her green jade hand pinched it at will, gently unfolded it, and after seeing the words on the paper, she suddenly felt a pain in her heart, and suddenly pushed open the window.
Li Xiangjun was startled, and then became curious, I don't know what the boy wrote, which made Liu Ru lose his temper for a while.
Li Xiangjun looked over quietly, and saw a few sentences written on the paper, poems are not poems, not long and short sentences of words:
You see or don't see me, I'm there, not sad or happy.
You read it, or you don't read me, the love is there, and it doesn't come or go.
You love, or you don't love me, love is there, not increasing or decreasing.
……
Suddenly, a man and a woman looked at each other.
Yang Chao was in the shadows, and when he saw Brother Gongzi a few steps away, the obsession of his eyes bloomed in an instant, and the flames were blazing.
Suddenly, I heard a voice from upstairs: "Zhou Gongzi, please come up." ”
I saw that Zhou Gongzi nodded suddenly, and he couldn't wait to fly to Liu Ruye's room on the second floor immediately, and immediately stepped forward to push the door.
"Zhou Gongzi, right? Please stay! ”
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded, so that Zhou Gongzi had to stop, and he noticed Yang Chao, who had been downstairs.
Zhou Gongzi immediately bowed to Yang Chaoshen: "Thank you brother Taiwan for your help." ”
Then Zhou Gongzi stretched out his hand to the scholar: "Silver!" ”
The scholar hurriedly brought a silk bag, slightly larger than a slap, bulging.
In fact, at this time, Yang Chao called Zhou Gongzi, the soldiers didn't ask for silver, and he was not in such a hurry.
However, Yang Chao accepted it unceremoniously, and weighed it in his hand.
Fifty taels, it's not too much.
Yang Chao immediately put it into his arms, and inside the clothes of the Ming Dynasty, there was a pocket that could hold things.
Then Yang Chao pulled Zhou Gongzi with a smile, helped him straighten his clothes, and then pinned the hole flute to him behind him.
"Alright, now you can go up!"
At this time, there is no need for Zhou Gongzi to push the door, because the door has been opened, and a girl has come out.
Liu Ru is very particular about inviting people, although he has already said it himself, he still has to send someone down to invite him.
When the girl saw Zhou Gongzi, she gently bent her knees and said, "I've seen Zhou Gongzi." ”
Zhou Gongzi also returned the salute, but his expression was very urgent, and the girl chattered endlessly.
"Zhou Gongzi is really talented. A few lines of words made Miss Liu change her mind. ”
"But Zhou Gongzi, I forwarded the letter, you have to give a reward."
Zhou Gongzi suddenly stopped and hesitated: "Great talent, a few lines of words, letter ......"
His expression changed from the excitement just now, and slowly became gloomy, and finally seemed to be godless.
He suddenly glanced at Yang Chao, his eyes full of grievances.
"Girl, I'm sorry to tell Miss Liu. There will be a period later! ”
Zhou Gongzi said a word, turned around and walked away slowly.
The girl was full of surprise in the back, and hurriedly shouted: "Zhou Gongzi, Zhou Gongzi, I don't want to reward money!" ”
Yang Chao was stunned, this infatuated son's behavior was completely beyond his expectations, he could stand in front of the door of Meixianglou for several days, the door is now open, he only needs one step, he can see Liu Ruis when he steps in, but he turned around at this time, which made him impressed.
However, Yang Chao did not feel the slightest guilt about taking his money, anyway, he had already helped him, but he didn't want to go in, so it was no wonder that Yang Chao, in order to make Liu Ru agree to see him, Yang Chao thought that he was racking his brains, and he didn't make so much effort to chase Banhua back then.
"Brother Yang, Brother Yang!"
Hu Quan looked demented at this time, his stubby neck was lifted hard, and he looked at the second floor in a daze, and called Yang Chao excitedly.
He didn't expect Yang Chao to really let Zhou Gongzi see Liu Rushi, and not only that, Liu Rushi also invited Zhou Gongzi to go up.
However, at this time, he had forgotten about the surprise for the time being, because he also saw Liu Ruyi, and couldn't help shouting excitedly, wanting Yang Chao to also come to see this extremely popular famous prostitute.
called twice but found that Yang Chao did not answer him, and when he looked back, he found that things seemed to be a little unexpected to him.
"Brother Yang, why did he leave?"
Hu Quan was talking about Zhou Gongzi, and he only found out at this time that Zhou Gongzi had left and had walked more than a dozen steps away.
Yang Chao shook his head, he didn't know it completely, but he could guess the approximate reason, that Zhou Gongzi was unwilling to see Liu Rushi in this way.
It should be out of the so-called self-esteem of the chicks, if you are a veteran of the flower field, you will not care about the process, they only want the result.
On the contrary, this kind of inexperienced guy often has a lot of thoughts in his heart, and he hopes to win the heart of a beauty with his own ability, so when he finds out that he is relying on someone else's ability to see a beautiful woman, it is tantamount to deception, and he immediately feels that this is blasphemy against himself and the beauty in his heart, so he resolutely refuses to see it.
In Yang Chao's view, this is just a kind of stupidity, but pedantic, and when he really matures, he doesn't care.
"Childe, Dong Xiao!"
Gu Gong's voice sounded, with an anxious face.
Only then did Yang Chao react, and the hole flute in Meixiang Building was taken away by Zhou Gongzi, and he hurriedly chased after him.
After chasing for more than ten steps, he finally caught up with Zhou Gongzi, who was depressed and full of shame and remorse, pulled out the hole flute from Zhou Gongzi's waist, and then rushed back.
Gui Gong also chased out, if the cave flute was taken away, he would not be able to eat and walk around, there would be no cheap things in Meixiang Building, and he would have to take off a layer of skin when the time came.
Yang Chao apologized and returned the hole flute to the turtle prince.
Then he gave Gui Gong a little silver: "Thank you, Raksha." ”
The silver given was the few pieces of silver given by the scholar, and he obviously smiled with satisfaction when he saw that he borrowed a hole flute, and he could earn more than a penny of silver, such good luck was not common, and the hole flute was also returned, and this favor was worth it.
"Let's go, Brother Hu!"
After returning the flute, Yang Chao saw Hu Quan standing downstairs in a daze, shouted, and couldn't help but look up.
Suddenly saw two delicate beauties, looking at themselves with a surprised face, when the six eyes met, Yang Chao suddenly became a little embarrassed, he was discovered, it seems that he was exposed, I don't know if the two girls will mind.
smiled at them awkwardly, and then pulled Hu Quan and walked slowly.
