Chapter 21 A moment of spring/night is worth a thousand times
Xie Yiying was very melancholy, and Zheng Bin was very depressed.
The only happy person seems to be Helan Chushi, and the matter of the mansion and the gambling game is resolved smoothly, and it can barely be regarded as complete.
Even if there is a trace of disharmony, I can't blame myself. At the same time, I also enjoyed an extremely interesting gambling game, and once again saw Xie Yi's "magic".
A talented teenager, smart and tight, a serious and rare talent!
After this incident, Helan Chushi became more and more determined to encircle Xie Yi.
But for now, the top priority is to ease the atmosphere, after all, this is a banquet that I have invited, and the purpose is to feast and have fun. It's not good to be dead and disappointed.
So, the sound of silk and bamboo sounded, Kabuki appeared, and the enchanting wide-sleeved dance was staged in the banquet hall of the Red Mansion.
The well-informed Xie Yi didn't have much interest in this kind of dance, just to make it lively and cheering, but everyone watched it with relish.
When the light gauze with wide sleeves was swept in turn, a maiko with a slender waist and a pretty posture appeared in the middle. Dressed in pink, indescribably moving, he was smiling slightly, looking at the guests.
Maiko can be regarded as a beauty, especially a pair of affectionate eyes, looking forward to life, and moving. In addition, the body is soft and agile, dancing with music, the sleeves are fluttering, the flexible waist and delicate figure are displayed in front of people, just like a fairy in the painting, adding to the charm.
The wide sleeves are elegant, the dancing posture is enchanting and moving, and Xie Yi is quite calm. After all, there is a sister-in-law at home who is like a flower, and her appearance is not inferior at all, and she is pure and virtuous. No matter how beautiful the maiko is, when they are in a happy scene, they will inevitably have the smell of wind and dust on their bodies, and they will lose a little bit of color.
However, all the gentlemen were already dumbfounded, and even Helan Chushi was a little stunned, obviously a little obsessed and a little moved.
It's not strange, man!
In the Thorn History Mansion, Xie Yi didn't see Hou Junji's daughter, probably still in Chang'an's hometown! However, the physiognomy of the Guanhou Junji couple and the daughter born are not very beautiful, maybe this marriage is more of a good match, and even a political one.
Helan Chushi may not be very satisfied with his wife, but now that he is alone, how can he not be tempted when he sees a beauty? Maybe in the family of the powerful, such things are commonplace, and Hou Junji, the old man, doesn't mind very much.
After the dance, the aftermath lingered, including Helan Chushi, a group of gentlemen seemed to be still intoxicated, and their eyes were still on the pink-clothed maiko.
The old bustard lost no time in appearing, and said with a smile on his face: "Distinguished guests, this is the little girl Lian'er, who is fifteen years old and comes from Yuezhou; The first time I saw a guest today, I was still in a complete state. ”
Belch......
It turned out to be a chick, and the appearance was still so delicate, and the crowd was suddenly ready to move, and the fire rose, and the interest naturally became stronger and stronger.
The old / bustard launched this woman at this time, obviously intentionally, not surprisingly, the next is the so-called "combing cage", which is naturally expensive.
With a good appearance and a beautiful beauty, which of the rich sons and brothers doesn't want to kiss Fang Ze first and become the first benefactor to take away his chastity?
There is a woman who is not worried about selling the old / bustard smiled and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, Lian'er has recently practiced a stunt of fragrant lips and wine...... If any of you are interested, you may wish to make a price. ”
Before the old bustard finished speaking, everyone already understood in their hearts that it was not just for everyone to bid, and the one with the highest price would win! A crowd of gentlemen immediately bustled, and some people began to shout prices, all wanting to kiss Fangze.
"As the saying goes, the more beautiful women are the best in the world, and when I see Miss Lian'er today, I know that this is true." In the midst of the chaos, Helan Chushi came out coldly.
The crowd suddenly understood, and the Helan guards took a fancy to this woman.
If this is the case, no matter how much they think and how reluctant they are, they can only retreat. and the guards of the East Palace, the son-in-law of the prince and the son-in-law of the country robbed women, they didn't have the guts.
However, although Helan Chushi said this, he did not make an offer, and just sat alone and drank. Also, after all, he has a special identity, and occasionally comes to the Qinglou to have fun, and the old man can turn a blind eye, but if he makes it too high-profile, everyone will not look good on face.
So, the atmosphere was suddenly a little awkward, and the old bustard and the maiko named Lian'er were also a little confused.
Zheng Bin saw it in his eyes, and suddenly had an idea, just now he was still worried about what kind of gift to give Helan Chushi, isn't it ready-made in front of him!
Since he is interested in this woman, he will help him pay for the night, and even buy another house to raise him as another housewife......
"In that case, how about placing a bid of fifty times?"
Fifty kan is 50,000 yuan, and 5 yuan can buy a bucket of rice, and the first night of a maiko can be bought at the price of 10,000 buckets of rice, which is considered a generous shot.
The old bustard nodded happily, and although the price was good, it was not very satisfied. If many gentlemen compete for the price, they will definitely be able to raise a lot.
I thought that all the guests who came today would be competing for bidding, but I didn't want to be cold yet, and now there is only one person bidding. The old bustard was a little reluctant to give up, and said with a smile: "Zheng Gongzi bid fifty times, but is there any other distinguished guest who bids?" ”
Everyone is looking forward to Zheng Bin's horse, Helan Chushi knows that naturally no one will do anything bad, but ......
"Sixty times!"
Everyone was shocked, Zheng Bin turned around and found that the person who shouted the price was Xie Yi. At this moment, he was looking at himself with a smile, and immediately greeted Helan Chushi.
Zheng Bin instantly decided that Xie Yi also planned to curry favor with Helan Chushi through Guò's move, in order to compete with him clearly.
"Eighty times!"
"One hundred!"
When Xie Yi shouted the second time, the price of Lian'er's combing cage directly doubled, and the old bustard was full of smiles, very satisfied and looking forward to it.
Zheng Bin was a little angry and shouted: "One hundred and fifty times! ”
"Two hundred!"
"Two hundred and fifty times!"
Sure enough, it's two hundred and five! Xie Yi scolded secretly in his heart and said with a smile: "Three hundred!" ”
Zheng Bin sneered angrily: "San Lang, can you afford three hundred guan?" Don't make jokes, let Miss Lian'er be happy. ”
"Haha, Brother Zheng is too worried, and he got a hundred times the day before yesterday. Plus the old mansion that just won back, how can it be worth hundreds of yuan, right? Xie Yi said with a smile: "As the saying goes: A moment of Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold, and it is only a few hundred." ”
When the old bustard heard this, not to mention how happy she was, the maiko Lian'er was also smiling. In the dust, she has long accepted her fate, if she can bid for a sky-high price this night, then her reputation and worth will be extraordinary.
Helan Chushi also stared at Xie Yi curiously, and intuitively told him that Xie Sanlang's move was not simple, not for a woman, nor for pleasing himself......
Zheng Bin was a little angry, he lost the gamble before, if even this maiko lost to Xie Yi, not only would he be a few points shorter in front of Helan Chushi, but he would also lose face and be humiliated......
For the sake of interests and face, he must not lose to Xie Yi's loser's behavior, Zheng Bin, who made up his mind, shouted without hesitation - five hundred guan!
"Six hundred!"
"Seven hundred!"
"Eight hundred!"
"A thousand kans!" The speed of the bidding was very fast, Zheng Bin didn't even think about it, and blurted out the sky-high price. Raise it to a price that makes Xie Yi very difficult, even if it is to sell the house, it is not enough, how can you compete with me?
Xie Yi calculated in his heart, if the price of rice is measured in equal terms, 1,000 guan at this time is equivalent to 6 million yuan in later generations.
On the first night of a Qinglou maiko, she bid for a sky-high price.
Lao/Bustard and Lian'er were both nervous, their eyes lit up, and they waited for Xie Yi's next wave of offers with a slight trembling. In fact, they don't care, at the price in front of them, they are already very satisfied, very satisfied
"Forget it, a gentleman doesn't win people's love, since Brother Zheng is determined to win, he will be the beauty of adulthood." Xie Yi smiled and gave up bidding.
Zheng Bin smiled lightly, the loser still can't fight me after all, right? But...... Seeing Xie Yi's unfrustrated, almost smug expression, Zheng Bin suddenly chuckled in his heart, and a bad thought slowly came to his mind.
Xie Yi just sneered, what kind of fragrant lips serve wine, do you use your mouth to cross over? Drinking like this, let's not talk about whether it is fragrant or not, at least it is unhygienic! Speaking of a parent, Xie Yi only has his sister-in-law Du Shi, who is like a flower at home, and has no interest in the Qinglou woman.
As for Zheng Bin's decision to please Helan Chushi, Xie Yi didn't mean it at all, the people of the East Palace and the Hou family couldn't avoid it, so how could they say to flatter?
The previous bidding was purely just to make trouble and avenge an arrow.
Zheng Bin vaguely came back to his senses, he was fooled, and he was cheated by Xie Yi again. What could have been done in fifty times has become a thousand.
I was stupid and was played as a monkey, and I did a big wrong, and in the end, it was the old bustard and the maiko Lian'er who really benefited. Of course, when Helan Chushi went to Wushan with this woman, he would probably feel even more happy!
After all, the spring/night is worth a thousand times, which is rare in Chang'an, and it can be called unique. How can you not be upset in your heart? The coming day can also be used as bragging capital, after all, vanity is everyone's own.
It's just that at that time, should he really thank Zheng Bin who paid the money, or Xie Yi who raised the price?
