Chapter 20: Miss Xue
"Miss Xue?" Jin Tong asked curiously, "Is the new singer?" ”
The guy waved his hand again and again and said, "Miss Xue can't be said to be a singer, those literati are all respectful." ”
The term "everyone" refers to those women who are knowledgeable and virtuous. For example, Ban Zhao in the Han Dynasty was proficient in literature and history, and he was able to learn people. Although it has since become an honorific title, the people who can be called so are all women who have recognized achievements in a certain field.
"So powerful?" Xu Yin asked with interest, "What is her origin?" ”
The guy said: "This Xue girl, a single name is like a word, her grandfather Xue Chang, once worked as a royal doctor. It's a pity that something happened later, and the whole family was confiscated, and her mother was pregnant at that time, and she also joined the Teaching Division. ”
Gao Silan thought thoughtfully: "So, she was born in the Teaching Workshop Division. ”
"Yes, she was a deep girl, but she fell into a quagmire, it's really pitiful." Dude, sigh.
Jin Tong sneered: "You still pity her? Look at the appearance of these thousands of people, you don't even look at you when you go to people's houses. ”
The guy was embarrassed by what she said, and said repeatedly: "Yes, Miss Jin said yes." ”
Jin Tong would not entangle with a guy, and continued to eat melon seeds: "Go on." ”
The guy responded, and continued: "Miss Xue was born smart, she was literate at the age of three, she was able to distinguish sound at the age of five, and she played the pipa in one hand to tears. ”
"Then how did she get to Nanyuan?" Gao Siyue was surprised, "Nanyuan is not close to the capital. ”
The guy smiled: "A while ago, Miss Xue heard the news of her grandfather's family and wanted to visit her relatives, but she met a chaotic soldier on the road, and she came to Nanyuan by mistake. Now that there is chaos outside, Miss Xue wants to stay in Nanyuan for a while, otherwise where can we hear her pipa. ”
Xu Yin asked, "When did she come?" ”
The guy thought for a moment: "More than a month ago? Or two months. No one knew about it when he came, but he was later recognized and his identity was revealed. ”
Xu Yin nodded, the time was right.
It was completely quiet outside, and the man knew that the performance was about to begin, so he didn't dare to say any more, pointed out the window, and stepped back lightly.
Jin Tong muttered: "It's so godly, I want to see how powerful it is." ”
The girls looked over and saw that musical instruments had been set up on the high platform, some holding cloud boards, some holding bamboo flutes, but none of them held the pipa.
"Eh, where?" Everyone searched everywhere, but they didn't find a woman who matched the description.
As soon as the cloud board sounded, the performance began, and the silk bamboo brought out the prelude leisurely, which was pleasant to the ear.
Gao Siyue said: "Could it be that he didn't come at all?" Pretending to be a ghost. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a piece of red silk suddenly threw out of the private room on the second floor opposite, and it hung diagonally towards the high platform.
The two strong servants jumped high, took the end of the red silk, and straightened it vigorously.
There was an exclamation in the field, and everyone looked up, but saw a woman in red appearing in the window, holding a pipa in her hand and red silk on her toes, coming to the wind, as if a fairy was coming.
The moment she landed on the high platform, the sound of the pipa also sounded.
This way of appearance was unheard of, and a deafening cheer immediately sounded in the restaurant.
Xu Yin's side, the girls were also shocked, and after a while, Jin Tong said: "This Miss Xue is quite good at thinking, how can this be done?" ”
"Yes, the silk cloth is so soft, how can you step on it?" Gao Siyue was also very interested.
The two discussed.
Xu Yin glanced at it and saw a corner of his clothes flashing in the private room opposite.
A thought flashed through her heart, and she asked Gao Silan, "How are you doing in your mansion?" It's been a long time since I've been to your county king's mansion to play. ”
Gao Silan smiled: "You can come whenever you want, aren't you still welcome?" ”
Xu Yin smiled: "Isn't this afraid of bad luck?" My father is still sick! ”
"What's this? Our family is not so poor and exquisite. ”
Xu Yin asked casually: "Has the prince been in the mansion recently?" ”
Before Gao Silan could speak, Gao Siyue interjected: "My father has been busy recently, and he doesn't know what to do, so he always runs out, and the concubine has asked several times, and they are going to quarrel." ”
"Ah Yue!" Gao Silan wants to stop it, this is a matter in his parents' room, how can he tell others?
However, Xu Yin continued: "What is this?" We always want to come out to play, and presumably the prince is the same. ”
Gao Siyue left her sister behind, pursed her lips, and said, "Could it be that he also came to see Miss Xue play music?" ”
"Maybe?" When Xu Yin said this, he stopped it.
This Xue girl probably played really well, and she was as beautiful as a flower, and the guests were fascinated, applauding from time to time, and throwing jewelry on the high platform as if she didn't need money.
Xu Yin's side, a few little girls can't appreciate it, so they are annoyed.
"It's so noisy! I can't hear the sound of the pipa clearly, what are they called? ”
"They're either listening to music, they're just watching people!"
"It's boring, let's play something else!"
Xu Yin proposed: "Then let's throw the pot, it's not appropriate to go again at this time." ”
The maidens answered, and ordered the men to bring pots and arrows.
Jin Tong has always been good at this game, gearing up and threatening: "I must win you all today!" ”
Gao Siyue refused to admit defeat: "I have been practicing at home for a long time, I will definitely win you!" ”
"Come then."
"Come on, come on."
The two of them were really comparable, and they were red-faced.
Xu Yin laughed: "What are you fighting for?" Wasn't it me who won in the end? ”
Jin Tong and Gao Siyue immediately put aside their dispute and joined forces.
One said: "You can talk big, but you haven't voted yet, so you blow it first." ”
Another said, "If you want to blow it, vote first." ”
Xu Yin took the arrow, gestured twice, and said, "It's nothing in the pitcher, I'll play a fresh game for you today." ”
"What's that?"
Xu Yin raised his gaze and looked at the other party's private room.
"It's too easy to throw in the pot, I'll throw it on the other side."
Jin Tong and Gao Siyue glanced at each other, not believing it.
The two rooms weren't close, and they didn't think they were the right shot.
Xu Yin said: "Then I'll try, if you hit, you both have to admit defeat." ”
Jin Tong thought about it and agreed: "Okay, you have to vote, even if you win today." ”
Gao Siyue also has no opinion.
Xu Yin picked up the arrow, aimed at the opposite side, and threw it.
Arrowing is used to throw pots, which is simple. The arrow broke away from his hand, drew an arc, and entered the opposite window accurately.
There was a "bang", and it seemed that something had been struck.
Immediately afterward, someone appeared at the window angrily and shouted, "Who? Playing pot throwing? ”
Gao Siyue looked at it and was dumbfounded: "This, isn't this Sun Yong?" Why is he here? ”
Sun Yong was an attendant at her father's side.
Gao Silan reacted, and her face turned pale: "Could it be that the other side is my father?" ”
