Chapter 82: Red Roses and White Roses
Mama Liu said a lot, her mouth was dry, she picked up the cup and poured herself a glass of water, although it was already cold tea, the tea was almost soaked, and it was extremely unpleasant, but Mama Liu still poured it into her mouth all at once.
Dong Xiaowan was thinking intently, and her brows frowned unconsciously.
To be honest, there are quite a few doorways in this selection.
For example, what kind of performance is more eye-catching, such as who will be the sons of the family in attendance?
But...... And more importantly, who is likely to compete with her for the final Oiran?
Thinking of this, Dong Xiaowan asked directly: "This year's hot candidate....... Who are they? ”
Mama Liu lowered her head and pondered for a while, counted with her fingers, and said: "Our 'Chunhua' and 'Qiushi', one in the tail of the crane in the past two years, it may be best to be around seven or eight, after all, the competitive should still be the 'Zheng'er' girl who plays the guzheng in the music fang, the 'Liu'er' girl who strokes the dulcimer and the 'Mengxin' girl who sings opera, all of them are likely to enter the top five." ”
"As for Qin Chu Pavilion, the 'Shuang'er' girl, known as the cold beauty, and the hot and charming 'Sai'er' girl are both popular in this year's Oiran, and the three of you are the ones who bet the most behind the opening, and now the position on the bonus list is also comparable, and they are your main competitors."
Dong Xiaowan read it again, "Frost and Sai'er", trying to get some information from the name.
It sounds a bit like white roses and red roses.
Mama Liu could see that she was interested in Shuang'er and Sai'er, and hurriedly continued to add their information: "This Shuang'er and Sai'er both have some exotic styles, bright facial features, and hot bodies. ”
"Shuang'er has a bit of northern blood, her skin is as white as clotted fat, she loves to read, and she is often disdainful of men, but men are particularly fascinated by what she can't get, and she doesn't have many sons, but all of them are her subordinates, and they are fascinated by her to a state of obsession."
"And Say'er, with some westerners, some people say that they have seen her come on a camel, with a whip in her hand, very aggressive, and a more cheerful personality, and I have heard that there are many important ministers who have been prominent in their positions to call her by name at night, and enjoy her stormy fighting."
Dong Xiaowan immediately understood in her heart, why the two girls have so many followers, they are all types of men who can't stop, how can they not be popular.
It's himself, except for some anecdotes, he lacks some personal performance to compete with the two girls.
After Dong Xiaowan heard this, she gently clasped the table with her fingers while pondering.
Mama Liu went out and asked for a pot of tea, poured a cup for Dong Xiaowan who was sitting and Chu Shancheng who was standing, and put it in the hands of the two of them, but she didn't hand it over, maintaining this strange tranquility, mainly because Mama Liu was afraid of disturbing Dong Xiaowan's thoughts.
After a long while, Dong Xiaowan finally spoke: "So, our purpose now is to better attract people's attention, right?" ”
"That's right." Mama Liu laughed again, her girl is not only beautiful, but also highly skilled.
"The purpose of your performance now is to let the audience remember you deeply, because in fact, when it comes to the official selection, everyone will definitely show their skills, and it is difficult to be better than others."
"As long as you usually perform well and have an audience, there will be people who will find a way to enter the venue and watch the final selection vote for you."
"Hmm." Dong Xiaowan nodded obediently, which was similar to the purpose she expected.
"Then are we going to play in our workshop, Mama Liu?"
"Nope." Mama Liu replied very simply this time, "On the platform built on the other side of the river, this can attract more people to come and see." ”
Dong Xiaowan glanced at Chu Shancheng as if looking back, and he nodded affirmatively.
Dong Xiaowan decided in her heart that the place where she saw Meng Xin performing tonight would be her stage tomorrow.
Dong Xiaowan replied with a "yes", and Mama Liu immediately felt relieved.
The two of them talked some more gossip and cared about each other's daily scenes, "Have you been tired lately?" "Can your body still hold it?" Something like that.
Dong Xiaowan was a little perfunctory at will, because she knew that Mama Liu didn't really care about her, but she was afraid that she would suddenly fall down and there would be no one to choose the Oiran.
Dong Xiaowan happily sent Mama Liu out of the door, and the moment she closed the door, she became tired again.
Chu Shancheng felt a little sorry for her like this, always afraid of burdening others, always afraid of disappointing others, and holding on to laughter and spirit.
Leave the loneliness and sadness to yourself and digest it slowly.
When Chu Shancheng saw her like this, it was like seeing himself in front of his grandfather Gu Weijun and the master's seal.
I suddenly felt a sense of sympathy, but I didn't expect a girl to live with such a strong sense of responsibility.
Chu Shancheng looked at her tired face, and couldn't help but feel relieved: "Actually, you don't have to choose an oiran, if there is any **** on Mama Liu's side, I can still stop it for you." ”
In fact, what Chu Shancheng wanted to say at the beginning was, "If you feel tired, don't choose, I can support you." "But after thinking about it, I think it's really disrespectful to say such things.
Dong Xiaowan is a free woman, she will never accept such an offer to rely on others.
If she didn't want to choose, she would have given up by herself, Dong Xiaowan is a girl who lives an active life and never gives up, not to mention, it is her own decision to choose or not to choose, why should she intervene, just because she is more powerful than her?
That's ridiculous.
Dong Xiaowan was still very helpful when she heard this reassuring sentence, and the irritability on her face was swept away.
After sitting down, he also invited Chu Shancheng on the other side to sit down together, and said, "Let's sit together for a while." ”
Chu Shancheng raised his placket and sat opposite Dong Xiaowan in a regular manner.
Dong Xiaowan just wanted to lift the teapot to pour water, but Chu Shancheng took it first, "I'll just come here with this kind of thing." ”
Dong Xiaowan obediently withdrew her hand and pushed her tea bowl forward.
The tea that Mama Liu just asked for was brewed for such a short time, and it was just the right time to be strong and beautiful.
The tea is tinged with a faint turquoise, the tea fragrance is rich, and the water temperature is just right.
Dong Xiaowan looked at the tea and poured, and asked, "Have you been staying in the Teaching Workshop Division all this time?" ”
The reason why Dong Xiaowan asked this was that during the time she spent with Chu Shancheng in the capital, she already knew some of his background, and she also understood that the responsibility on his back was very heavy.
If he doesn't stay in the capital, it's easy to get some moths.
Chu Shancheng took the teacup and turned around on the table, lifted it up and took a sip, without looking up, and said lightly: "Now I am still in the slave registration of the Jiangnan Sect Division, and I want to stay here." ”
