Chapter 156
Liu Shulai gasped for a few silver tickets in his arms, and went with Chen Rong to find Zhang Xunsheng.
It's just that the Zhang family is not strictly guarding the two of them at this time, and as soon as the housekeeper saw the two of them, he hurriedly sent someone to find the master to come over to entertain them.
So, Liu Shulai, who was obviously discussing the good brothers, went to the happy Liu Shu to talk to Chen Rong, but he was stunned by Uncle Zhang's belly of scenes, and in the end, neither of them looked for Zhang Xunsheng, who was sneaking and having a sad face, to talk about Qingyun Painting Boat.
After leaving Zhang's house, Liu Shulai muttered to Chen Rong for a while, and then went around to the backyard. After a while, I looked at Zhang Xunsheng, who was wearing a green shirt and holding a good young master's shelf for a long time, and came out of the wall with a familiar car......
After getting off the wall, Zhang Xunsheng rolled up the account book in his hand and stuffed it into his arms, and said with a sip: "Now that the account room at home is getting more and more excessive, I will take one hundred and ten taels of silver, and the old man will nod ......."
Such an aggrieved appearance provoked Liu Shulai to laugh at Chen Rong.
Although Chen Rong was forced by his family to marry and couldn't get peace all day long, he was still free in money.
As for Liu Shulai, it is even more so, no matter how much he is in tune, Mrs. Liu has always been demanding from him.
Really speaking, the whole town adds up, and even Zhao Li, who is used to showing off his might and taking it by force, is probably not as comfortable and chic as the Liu family.
Although he complained badly, none of them dared to delay more, lest they would be blocked by the Zhang family.
When these three people left the realm of the Zhang family, they became happy and proud.
When I arrived at the painting boat, there were already a lot of people crowded outside, and there were still many fresh faces, which should have come from other places. There are also some bookish and angry people, chewing words and saying sour articles one by one, just to let the talented and good-looking girls in the capital take a look.
When Liu Shu came over, he was still elated, but when he saw the bustling people, he felt a little bored.
"How can it be like a vegetable market, look at those one by one, like waiting for someone to pick a winter melon and potato." Liu Shulai couldn't wait patiently, and leaned crookedly against the edge of the tree outside the painting boat to look at it.
However, Chen Rong still tiptoed to look in with great interest, "Hey, Brother Lai, you don't understand this, it's just that there are many people who seem to be worth Mei Niang who just came." ”
As he spoke, he put his shoulder on Zhang Xunsheng's arm and said, "Brother Sheng, you say yes." ”
He said it, but his expression really didn't look like the monkeys were anxious, and he didn't have any obscene thoughts.
To be honest, he really didn't want to be a guest of the curtain, but he just felt that as a famous gentleman in the town's row, this kind of excitement was really unreasonable.
Besides, he had heard a lot of rumors about Mei Niang, so he was naturally curious.
Liu Shulai rolled his eyes, "Fart worth, you touch your conscience and say, how can we have any serious 800 painting boats in Liulin Town!" It's the ones who entertained under the banner of elegance before, to put it bluntly, aren't they all making money by being women? ”
"Besides, who are you looking at! In addition to the wine bag and rice bag, he is a veteran of Fengyue Field, and the group of sour scholars is still a decent person. But this kind of search. Where is the place where scholars who are really obsessed with fame come from? To put it bluntly, I'm afraid it's a gimmick found by the proprietor behind the painting boat, so I will coax you into a gentleman with an open mouth for money......"
If that kind of Lao Zi's Mei Niang is really famous in the capital, and her talent is unique, where can she go to their town to find a guest in the curtain?
Not to mention that the rich children in the capital are not good, but on the side of the state city, there are countless elegant guests looking for such a woman.
When a few people said this, they heard the mother of the painter in charge of the boat shouting, saying that it was early in the morning, so let the big guy disperse first and come back in the evening. Say what to say, when the time comes, Miss Mei'er has a good wine to entertain.
Chen Rong was a little disappointed, but Liu Shulai's eyes lit up when he heard that.
He raised his eyebrows and took Zhang Xunsheng and Chen Rong to the front of the painting boat.
Liu Shulai is not a person who can stand words, seeing the housekeeper's mother licking and laughing and asking them to go back first, he directly took out a hundred taels of silver ticket from his arms without saying a word and patted it.
The housekeeper's mother looked at the silver ticket in her hand and subconsciously swallowed her saliva. But as soon as she thought of the owner's plan, she could only refuse, "Liu Dashao, don't embarrass my mother, Miss Mei'er is not a guest at this time!" ”
Liu Shulai frowned, and then took out two more silver tickets from his arms, "Your girl and I are not uncommon, but I heard that she brought a jar of jade brew?" ”
As soon as he said this, Chen Rong hurriedly jumped to his feet, "Brother Lai, you are not rare, I am rare." If I win the favor of Mei Niang, then I can walk sideways in the circle in the future! ”
After all, Liulin Town hasn't had a rare character for many years. Even if it is the best Chunxiang building in the town, there are only a few girls back and forth, and there is nothing to show off, counting the Oiran who is chosen once a year. Eighth Library
Besides, they are all frequent visitors to Chunxiang Building, after all, if they want to hold on to the name of the gentleman, the reputation on the Fengyue Field is indispensable.
Liu Shulai can't look down on his unproductive appearance, but he is a brother who has sworn to his family, and he can't let people look down on him.
So, Liu Shulai didn't say a word, and directly slapped five silver tickets into the arms of the housekeeper's mother. With that rich appearance, I had to ask the housekeeper if my mother was enough.
The housekeeper's mother held the silver ticket, and her hands were shaking.
At this time, she didn't smirk, and without saying a word, she respectfully welcomed people into the painting boat. By the way, the girls who were laughing in the painting boat came out to serve.
"A few young masters can sit inside, this is a good place in front, look at the stage to see clearly, later, as long as Mei Niang comes on stage, I guarantee that you can see it really." The housekeeper's mother touched the silver ticket in her hand, and her heart was almost happy.
Although the owner said that he wanted to raise Mei Niang's value, so that he could get a good price. But to be honest, she knew very well in her heart that even if Mei Niang's worth was raised, she would only be able to get three or five hundred taels in Liulin Town.
That's more.
After all, the price of Chunxianglou's Oiran redemption is only more than 100 taels after the sky.
As soon as Liu Shulai and the three of them sat down, a group of women wearing light saros rushed over. The women were sensible, singing and dancing, each doing their job.
Ke Rao is so full of emotion, when a woman in a gouache gauze dress came over to feed the wine, Liu Shulai was still startled and jumped up.
"Hey, Caidie, how did you serve Caidie, why did you make Liu Dashao unhappy?" The housekeeper's mother knew that it was the God of Wealth who was staying here, so she was naturally concerned. At this time, she saw that Liu Shulai was unhappy, and hurriedly came up to play a round.
The girl who called the colorful butterfly glanced at Liu Shulai coquettishly, gently stirred the handkerchief, and said coquettishly: "The slave just wants to give the eldest young master a glass of wine......
Seeing this, the housekeeper's mother hurriedly licked and smiled and asked Liu Shulai, "Isn't it that the eldest young master doesn't like Caidie like this?" I don't know what a few young masters like, we have girls who play, sing, chant and paint, even if they can accompany a few horses to play, there is no shortage of them......"
Liu Shulai frowned and glanced at her, thought for a while and said, "Then find a few people who drink a lot, if you can roll the dice and play the stalls, it would be better......"
The mother in charge was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously sighed.
She led the painting boat around the world, but she hadn't encountered such a thing, she spent a lot of money on the painting boat, and she didn't look at those girls, and she was going to drink and play dice when she opened her mouth?
When it came to playing dice, Chen Rong and Zhang Xunsheng were also interested.
Speaking of which, they haven't played for a long time, and their hands are a little itchy now. Especially Chen Rong, since the last time he got drunk in Chunxiang Lou and made jokes because of his gambling, he hasn't been to the casino for a few months.
It's not that the family is in control, but every time he wants to block two of them, he will run into some tongue-long people to inquire about Chunxianglou. After many times, he was very tired of it, and he even went to the casino with him.
Chen Rong saw that the housekeeper's mother was still stunned, so he couldn't help but raise his foot and kick her, and said unhappily: "Why don't you hurry up and make arrangements?" ”
The housekeeper's mother was kicked and didn't dare to delay, so she went to find a few girls who liked to play pitchers and dice with guests on weekdays. Of course, the spacious painting hall has to put together two tables, so that it is convenient for several wealthy young masters to play.
The girls singing and dancing at the bottom, and the people who watched the rise of the gambling stakes, thought it was strange. So, those warblers and swallows all got together to look like gambling sieves.
Liu Shulai is a generous person, he pours a sip of wine when he wins, and he doesn't force people to pay for it when he loses.
So much so that the girls who have never played the stall are eager to try two of them.
All of a sudden, it should have been fragrant, spring. The charming and beautiful painting boat has become a nondescript and lively casino.
After playing dice heartily for a while, Liu Shulai beckoned the housekeeper's mother to come over and asked about the miraculous jade brewed outside.
Although the wine he drank at that time was also considered a good wine, Liu Shulai's mouth was often drunk with drinks that were difficult to buy, so he was naturally not satisfied. So, when he was free, he couldn't help but remember what Chen Rong said, the wine that can make people drunk when he smells it.
The housekeeper's mother was also bitter in her heart, but she didn't dare to say that there was no such good wine in the painting boat at all. The so-called jade brew is actually an ordinary drink, but it is touted because it has passed the hands of beauties.
After all, who spent a lot of money to buy Mei Niang's smile, which one is really for that glass of wine? It's all drunkards who don't mean to drink, they care about the light fragrance of beauty.
