Chapter 194: A Bead
The furnishings in the house are also very simple, but they are relatively clean and tidy. Through the owner's furnishings, it can be seen that her heart is relatively indifferent, but she doesn't know whether she is pretending to be or really indifferent.
The door frame was relatively low, and the maid used a bamboo pole to open the curtain for them, and the two of them had to keep their heads down and bend down to enter. There is sandalwood burning inside, revealing an antique fragrance.
A beauty by the window, also dressed elegantly dressed goose egg face, willow eyebrows, a pair of big eyes can speak, white skin, graceful figure, is a representative of classical beauty.
If nothing else, just such a person can fascinate many men. What's more, listening to Du Qi, she is still very talented.
Seeing the two of them coming, Manjing stood up and blessed herself in the chair: "The slave family has seen Du Gongzi." β
The light poured in from the window, shining on Manjing's pale pink and light green clothes, sprinkled on her white face, and there was an illusion of a soft halo.
Du Qi smiled: "Miss Manjing, today's protagonist is not a certain family, but the one next to me." His name is Zhou Xiaocao, and his experience is very legendary. β
Manjing immediately saluted Zhou Xiaocao again, and said lightly: "Manjing has seen Zhou Gongzi, don't blame her for being rude." β
Zhou Xiaocao stretched out his hand and lifted it upward, and said: "Miss Manjing is very polite, Zhou is a Xiaomin of Shengdou, and the girl should not say so." β
Manjing couldn't help but look at Zhou Xiaocao, he said that he was just a small citizen of Shengdou, so how could he be impressed by the son of the Ministry of Shangshu? Could it be that he is a poet. Or a talented painter and musician?
The three of them sat down, and Manjing was still sitting in the window seat. Du Qi and Zhou Xiaocao sat opposite her, facing the window. The attentive little maid lowered the curtains. The dazzling sunlight was blocked, and the light in the room became a little darker.
Zhou Xiaocao opened her mouth and asked, "Miss Manjing is such a wonderful person, why do you live alone in this suburb." β
Du Qi laughed, patted Zhou Xiaocao on the shoulder and said, "Brother, I advise you not to fight the idea of the Manjing girl." If she is willing, how many children of prominent and talented families will rush to marry her home. You don't know that there was once a son who came to Miss Manjing with a letter of resignation, saying that it was for her. He has divorced all his wives at home. Tell me, isn't it powerful? β
Zhou Xiaocao smiled unnaturally on his face, he couldn't tell if he liked the manjing girl, the first time they met, did they fall in love at first sight?
Miss Manjing covered her mouth and smiled, and said: "Du Gongzi said that he laughed, the slave family saw that Zhou Gongzi already had someone in his heart, and I am afraid that he would not look down on the background of the slave family." β
Zhou Xiaocao secretly said that this woman spoke without leakage. It's no wonder that it can be mixed in a place like the capital where dignitaries and nobles gather, and it is really very set.
Du Qi smiled and said, "So what? Men, don't they all want to collect all the beauties in the world? Who would think they have too many women. β
The girl just smiled and didn't answer. Apparently very uninterested in this topic.
Zhou Xiaocao said: "Du Gongzi has a certain amount of truth, but it is not all right. β
Du Qi asked, "Oh? Why? β
Zhou Xiaocao stood up, paced and said, "It is reasonable to save zΓ i. Since God has created men and women. It is destined to be different between them. As far as men are concerned, three wives and four concubines are everyone's dream. Embracing beauty is a man's ideal. What is a man fighting for all his life? Do you dare to say that there is no shadow of a woman in it? What does it mean to be successful. If it is said that it is for greater power, then, what are the court officials working for? They're already a great man! They want to think about future generations, they want to think about this family. What is Home? Can you be called a writer without a woman? In this sense, women, that's what drives men. β
"Then let's talk about women, women are delicate and sentimental, which is a defect and a beauty in another sense." The young woman in the boudoir was not worried, and she made up on the green building in spring. Suddenly, I saw a strange willow color, and the penitent husband was looking for a marquis. This is the remorse of resentment; 'The concubine is at the head of the Yangtze River, and the king lives at the end of the Yangtze River. Every day, I don't see you, and I drink the water of the Yangtze River. 'This is Sichun; 'The red candle was stopped in the cave room last night, and I waited to pay my aunt in front of Xiaotang. Makeup asked her husband in a low voice, and the thrush was not deep or shallow. It's the kind of naΓ―ve attitude of a bride. All these show the beauty of women in different aspects, which always makes men's hearts move. β
In the end, Zhou Xiaocao came to the window, very close to the Manjing girl, Manjing subconsciously moved her buttocks, but she didn't move, I don't know if it was just a statement.
Zhou Xiaocao said concludingly: "We men appreciate the beauty of women, but it doesn't mean that we must marry them." Do you like flowers, so you have to pick them all and put them at home? Seeing an excellent woman, appreciating, can; Admiration, too. But if you don't cross the rules, this is a moral bottom line. Unless, too, this woman has a crush on you, that's a different story. At this time, you have to overcome all difficulties, and you can't live up to the affection of other girls. Because, unlike men, once a woman is moved, she may only be like this once in her life, only one person. A woman's heart is fine porcelain, beautiful and brittle. β
Du Qi smacked his lips and said, "Although I don't know what you're talking about, it sounds very powerful." β
Damn, you're not aware of it?
I thought that my remarks would at least be full of color, but I didn't expect that except for Du Qi's "unconscious" handful, the Manjing girl was silent, and even the little girl didn't squint, cooking tea with one mind.
Speaking is not effective, fails; The girl was silent and failed; Even the little maid is dismissive, a failure in failure!
Miss Manjing stood up and said, "The tea soup is about to be cooked, and the slave family will go to change their clothes and stroke the piano for the two sons." β
After saying that, he bowed to the two of them and entered the room with a smile.
Du Qi glared at a pair of eyes and said, "Brother, what are you talking about, you see, Miss Manjing is angry!" We didn't ask to play the piano, she played it herself, that is the meaning of being difficult to find a soulmate, and we should take our leave. β
"Huh? This little brother didn't mean it. β
While talking, the girl came back, changed into a white gown, held a piano, put the piano on the table, and the little maid's tea soup was also cooked and served. The girl personally picked up the teacup and handed it to the two of them. When handing it to Zhou Xiaocao, he raised his face and glanced at him with deep meaning, then lowered his head again. It's just that when Zhou Xiaocao took the teacup, a small ball of paper silently slipped into Zhou Xiaocao's hand. Zhou Xiaocao hid it quietly, thanked him, and sat down.
The two of them drank tea, listened to Manjing play a tune, and said goodbye with interest.
On the carriage, Du Qi said, "Do you know why Brother Wei brought you here?" β
Zhou Xiaocao shook his head, and Du Qi continued: "I want to sue you, what is called a woman." That day in Chunfang Building, if it weren't for an old pedant like Old Man Yang who provoked me, I wouldn't have been so ugly. A good woman can only be admired, not played. The so-called talented women and beauties in Chunfanglou are actually not worth mentioning. Those ordinary women can only coax those who have never seen the world. β
These words made Zhou Xiaocao look at Du Gongzi with admiration. It turns out that he is not the kind of boy who talks about nothing, but he is completely covered by his father's aura, and he needs a dissolute appearance to attract the attention of others.
Zhou Xiaocao lowered his head and said, "What the eldest brother said is that the younger brother has been taught. β
Du Qi took out a bead from his arms, this bead was the size of a dragon's eye, and there seemed to be a layer of ghostly light flickering on the surface: "Brother, you must have spent a lot of money to buy that ice spirit girl, right?" Come, this bead is Ouchi's tribute, and there are few in the world, and its value must exceed that of the ice spirit girl. This is to compensate you for the loss of buying the woman; I also thank you for speaking up in front of the emperor. β
Zhou Xiaocao pushed repeatedly: "No, no, I didn't spend any money"
Du Qi sent the beads forward, and said with a calm face: "This is what my father meant!" (To be continued......)
