I shook my head like a rattle and laughed awkwardly: "I just think this matter is unbelievable, there must be a key point in it that we didn't expect, so I asked more carefully, and I didn't mean anything else." ”

Xi Yan nodded and said: "I just listened to the girl's thoughts, but there is some truth, and I also have some incomprehension about Mingxiang's death, but at the moment, Liu's mother has repeatedly ordered us to strictly prohibit us from leaking the slightest rumor, so who do I want to go to ask for some news, tonight is definitely not the right opportunity." ”

"That's right. I felt that this Oiran sister was thoughtful, and I couldn't help but admire it in my heart, and said, "In this way, I am too anxious." ”

Xi Yan smiled faintly, as if she said casually: "The girl looks like she knows Mingxiang." ”

When I saw her eyes, with a bit of observation, I quickly explained: "I came across the ocean, how can I know Mingxiang, I just sighed at the coincidence, and I was also a little sad and famous." ”

"Shameless. ”

Xi Yan's thin lips opened lightly, and he muttered these four words silently again, and then smiled a little reluctantly: "The woman in the Qinglou has always been involuntarily, whether this life is thick or thin, I am afraid that I will never be able to grasp it in my own hands." ”

......

After leaving the room, I was still reminiscing about her words.

seems to feel that this woman's thinking is quite avant-garde, maybe she has read books and has some talent, so she will give birth to such an untimely thinking, which is a pity.

When I returned to the house where I was staying, my mother-in-law had already brought me all the things I needed for the evening feast.

She was packing up some clothes and shoes and socks, and when she saw me walk in the door, she greeted me with a smile, "Girl, you're back." ”

"Why, have I been there for a long time?" I asked rhetorically.

If you don't come back, I'm about to knock on the door and call you, and if you don't get dressed up, you won't have time to get ready before three quarters of the hour." ”

Three quarters of the unitary hour.

I despair of this hour.

When I was changing my clothes, Yu'er asked curiously, "By the way, girl, can the girl pass on the experience of the opening of the bud banquet?"

Yo......

patronized to find out the cause of Miss Mingxiang's death, but forgot about it completely.

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

Knock knock.

She jumped up and down with her skirt to open the door.

I stood where I was, waiting for Yo'er to lean out halfway out, muttering to a delicate and beautiful female voice outside the door, and I don't know what to say, and then she shrank back again with a beautiful brocade box.

"Girl, this is a congratulatory gift from Miss Xiyi, and I wish you a full house tonight. ”

She said,

As he walked over, he opened the brocade box with red auspicious cloud patterns, revealing the gold-trimmed bee flying butterfly dancing porcelain plate that I was too familiar to be familiar with.

"Wow, this plate looks so exquisite!" exclaimed.

I couldn't help but hold my forehead, and said with the same words as the last two times: "Yes, Miss Xi is the Oiran of the Star Pavilion, and the things that come out of her hands will naturally not be ordinary objects, Yu'er, you put this porcelain plate ...... it."

As I spoke, my fingers had already moved to the direction of the mahogany sideboard under the window, but I suddenly remembered something.

Yo'er held the box and looked at me a little confused.

"Girl, where should I put this gift?"

"Wait. ”

I was in a trance, my mouth was dry, and I was so distraught that I sat back on the stool in front of the dressing table, and I couldn't help but glance at the mahogany sideboard and window.

In the last two times, I clearly remember Liu's mother's reaction after seeing the porcelain plate, which gave people a feeling as if this porcelain plate was very important.

But why did she show such an expression and bluntly say that she liked me a lot?

"Yoo'er, do you know where the girl sent this plate from?" I got up again and walked over, taking out the plate in the box and the stand at the bottom.

Yu'er replied: "I used to work in the backyard, and it was the girl you who came, so I was temporarily transferred to the front yard to serve...... It seems that it was also given by a distinguished guest, Miss Xi is borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, maybe I also want to add some blessings to you, so that you can get a good luck when you are auctioned tonight!"

"Is that really the case?"

I wondered.

If it is given by a distinguished guest, Xi Yu will give it to me, and the guest will go to her room in the future and not see this porcelain plate, wouldn't it be disappointing? Besides, I can't get rid of the expression of Mother Liu's mother when she glimpsed this plate again, and I always feel that her reaction is strange, but I can't tell what is wrong for a while.

What followed was almost exactly the same as the previous two experiences.

It wasn't until I was photographed by Li Rui with 10,000 taels of gold that I returned to the second floor with the applause and applause of the audience, and soon after, the girl appeared outside my room again.

"Congratulations to Miss Mingxiang. ”

When she came in, she seemed to be a little more drunk than the previous two times, her footsteps were like stepping on clouds, and as soon as she entered the door, she was helped by Yu'er to sit at the table, and her eyes that were a little drunk were more and more bright and moving under the light of the lamp and candle.

"Isn't Miss Xi going to send me another poem?" I asked knowingly.

Then, Xi Yan reprimanded me coquettishly, but he also told me very vaguely that the official who photographed me tonight was the one in front of the saint today

Big Red, Hallym University Scholar Li Rui.

As soon as she heard the news, she was so frightened that she rolled her eyes and was about to faint, but fortunately, I quickly caught her.

"Girl, you're in luck!"

It seems that this girl admires Li Rui very much!

I continued to ask knowingly, "What's the matter?"

"It's not just famous, that's the most beautiful and handsome man recognized by the women of the Manjing Division, and the most handsome and talented men, those beautiful girls in the boudoir are secretly jealous of Lord Li, and they are competing with each other, if anyone can be selected by the Li family to marry into the door, I am afraid that the women in the whole city will be envious!"

The more she talked, the more excited she became, and her round little face turned red.

Taking advantage of this, I deliberately quipped: "Does Liu'er also want to marry Li Rui Li?"

"I ......"

She stomped her foot in shame and glared at me through gritted teeth, "Girl, don't talk nonsense!"

On the side, Xi Yan had already smiled at the shallow pear vortices on both sides of his lips, his eyes flashing with fine starlight, and he continued: "Although Master Li is a man that all the women in the city want to marry, as far as I know, he seems to have never been engaged to any noble girl, and even every time he comes to the Star Picking Pavilion, there is no girl in the building who can get close to him!"
