Chapter Seventy-Five: Encountering a Confidant
It is said that money can make ghosts grind, and in a place like Wangchun Tower, how can there be rules that money can't buy?
Lao Bao used to insist that Qingpei would not sell her art, but now he gave her over with only a piece of gold.
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel some sympathy for the girl on the stage.
"Mom, how long is this going to keep me waiting?" The old guard held the gold in his hand and his eyes lit up, as if he had long forgotten what he was doing, so Lu Xuan reminded him.
Hearing this, Lao Bao hurriedly came back to his senses and smiled flatteringly at her: "Oh yo, look at my memory, don't be anxious, I'll go and inform Qingpei." ”
After that, he sent two girls to send Lu Xuan to the upstairs wing, and Lao Bao immediately came to the stage to invite Qing Pei down.
Seeing this, several guest officers who were enjoying listening to the song suddenly lost their temper: "Hey? We listen so well, Mom, what are you doing here? ”
Lao Bao hurriedly explained to the audience with a sleek face: "Our Qingpei girl was taken care of by an adult tonight, so I can't serve you anymore." ”
"Who! Isn't Miss Qingpei a showman, but not a seller? Someone in the hall was indignant, and Qing Pei himself was even more shocked: "Mom, didn't we talk about it early in the morning?" How do you ......"
Lao Bao turned sideways and impatiently gave Qing Pei a look to signal her to shut up, and then looked at the audience with a smile:
"Oh, which master is in the private room upstairs, but they have given a lot of gold, do you have it?"
As Lao Bao's voice fell, everyone looked upstairs, Lu Xuan deliberately stood at the door at this moment, and pretended to be impatient when everyone raised their heads: "How long do you have to wait!" ”
After a while, someone in the crowd immediately recognized Lu Xuan, and immediately discussed-
"Isn't that the county master from Sheng Jinglai?"
"County master? Is that the rumor that has a habit of breaking the show? ”
"What kind of broken show, most of it is nonsense from others, can broken show come to this kind of place to spend a gold ingot to buy a one-night spring supper?"
"But those rumors spread before with noses and eyes......"
"What, I think the girl here is not as good as Shengjing, and people didn't look at it before, but it's not like it, but now it's not, look at the top brand of Wangchun Tower?"
"yes, those people on the street really like to chew their tongues."
In this way, Lu Xuan's rumors of breaking the show are indeed self-defeating, and it is really thanks to Feng Wukuan's good strategy.
Now that everything is ready, we are waiting for these people to spread the news of tonight early tomorrow morning.
Lu Xuan turned around and went back to the room to meditate, and waited for a long time for the rumored Qingpei girl who was not selling her art.
But this girl is really different from the vulgar fans who pounce on people when they see them, just look at the sorrow on her face and know that she was forcibly pushed by the old guard.
Seeing someone coming in at the door, Lu Xuan hurriedly got up to greet him, but he didn't receive any good looks from the other party.
I saw Qing Pei bowing his head the whole time, and he didn't even have the interest to look at Lu Xuan, so he stopped at the door, far away from her.
Lao Bao said early on that Qing Pei was not selling, so Lu Xuan was quite considerate of her actions at the moment, so she did not come forward to offend.
Until Qing Pei took the initiative to speak: "The slave family knows that the adult family has a lot of money and is in an important position, although the slave family is a dusty woman, but he will never abuse himself, if the adult insists on insulting, the slave family may be difficult to submit." ”
It seems that she is indeed a chaste martyr, but when it comes to Lu Xuan's wealth, she really looks down on her, she doesn't have much family background, and she is completely empty-handed when she makes such a fuss.
But at the moment, this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is how to persuade this Qingpei girl to become his key assistant to refute the rumors.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Xuan then humbly comforted: "The girl doesn't have to worry too much, I don't mean to offend the girl, I just want to ask the girl for a small favor." ”
Hearing this, Qing Pei was stunned for a moment, and then raised his eyes to look at the person in front of him.
But she saw a handsome and elegant face appear in front of her, like a clear breeze and a bright moon, which made people unconsciously let down their guards, and judged the womanizer she had imagined before.
Xu was attracted by such a beauty, Qing Pei couldn't help but be distracted, and it took a while to react to what Lu Xuan said.
"Don't you want the body of a slave?" Qing Pei asked tentatively, Lu Xuan's cheeks almost turned red when he heard this, and the two daughters were facing each other, what words did they say about tigers and wolves.
Forcibly suppressing the shame in his heart, Lu Xuan nodded: "I came from Shengjing in Xiayuan, and I am not familiar with life here, so I just want to find a confidant who can speak." ”
Having said that, Qing Pei was still puzzled: "With the ability of an adult, if you want to find confidants everywhere, why bother to spend so much money for slaves?" ”
Lu Xuan sighed: "This is what I want to do today to find the girl for help." ”
As she spoke, she asked Qing Pei to sit down, and Qing Pei had completely let down his guard against Lu Xuan at this time, so he did not refuse.
The two sat down on their knees, and Lu Xuan spoke: "I have never intended to be in the wind and snow, and I am dedicated to the country and the people, but because of this, I have caused rumors, and I am regarded as a broken show, and I am so insulting, it is really unbearable for a gentleman." ”
Hearing this, Qing Pei probably understood: "So the adults don't hesitate to spend a lot of money to ask the slave family to sell their arts, and the singer comes to be a companion, to help the adults get rid of rumors, and to protect the virtues of the adults and gentlemen?" ”
Lu Xuan nodded: "That's right, I don't know if the girl is willing to help?" ”
Seeing that Lu Xuan's eyes were sincere, it didn't look like a lie, so Qing Pei agreed: "Since the adult has ruined the wealth for the slave family, the slave family should help the adult eliminate the disaster, and from now on, the foreign slave family will be an adult." ”
This Qing Pei has a lot of wisdom, and many things can even be understood by Lu Xuan without Lu Xuan's words, so that ingot of gold is not a vain flower.
The two reached a consensus, and Lu Xuan's heart was relieved.
It's just that it's really boring for the two of them to sit until dawn in this long night, so Lu Xuan simply talked to Qing Pei.
In this way, the two talked about her family experience from the song played by Fang Cai Qingpei, and talked about Lu Xuan's homesickness, and there was a bit of resonance between the words.
Before I knew it, the night was spent in small talk, and the two of them had fallen asleep at the table at some point.
When Qing Pei opened his eyes again, the sky was already bright, and he turned to look at Lu Xuan beside him-
She is still lying in front of the table, without any overstepping, and even her sleeping appearance can be called elegant, which can't help but make people feel good.
"Your Excellency, your Excellency." Qing Pei called softly a few times, and Lu Xuan opened his eyes in a daze.
"My lord, it's dawn." Qingpei said again, Lu Xuan came to his senses, got up and waved at her: "There was a lot of disturbance last night, please forgive me." ”
Qing Pei has been a singer for so long, and she has never been so respected, and when she saw Lu Xuan's move, she couldn't help but be moved.
Until Lu Xuan spoke again: "Lu has been staying here for a long time, the government still has important matters, and it is time to go back, take care of the girl." Qing Pei came back to his senses.
"Will the adults still come?" Qing Pei couldn't hold it back for a while, and blurted out without thinking.
Lu Xuan stopped and turned around again, showing a bright smile towards Qingpei: "Lu had a very happy conversation with the girl last night, if the girl doesn't dislike it, Lu is willing to make a friend of the girl." ”
Indeed, after getting along all night, Lu Xuan also had a good impression of Qing Pei.
She is different from other dusty women, she still has a sense of arrogance in her bones, and she is quite proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, if Lu Xuan is a veritable daughter, the two may have been like sisters for a long time.
Seeing that Lu Xuan's impression of himself was still good, Qing Pei couldn't help but feel a trace of joy in his heart, and then nodded: "Thanks to your appreciation, it is Qing Pei's luck." ”
After a pause, remembering what Lu Xuan asked for last night, Qing Pei spoke again: "Qing Pei will go out with the adults." ”
Lu Xuan understood Qingpei's meaning, and immediately agreed, and the two came out hand in hand.
When I went downstairs, I bumped into the old man who saw the money yesterday.
Seeing Lu Xuan come out, Lao Bao hurriedly greeted her: "It's okay to see the adult again, how about it, how did the adult get along with Qingpei last night?" ”
Lao Bao looked up and down at the two of them as he spoke, and saw that Qing Pei and Lu Xuan behaved intimately, without the slightest resistance from yesterday, and instantly seemed to understand something, and couldn't help but laugh.
However, Lu Xuan is quite worried, her trouble is solved, but Qingpei is afraid that it will be difficult to explain.
In the past, Qingpei always used the banner of selling art and not selling, although he was in the dust, he could barely stand alone.
But now that Lu Xuan has broken the rules, coupled with such an old guard who regards money as his life and so many well-dressed beasts who have long coveted Qing Pei's beauty, it is difficult to guarantee that Qing Pei will not be bullied by others.
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan really had to worry about Qing Pei's future life.
After thinking for a while, Lu Xuan immediately put on a domineering appearance and walked to Lao Bao's side.
"In the future, Miss Qingpei will still be selling in Wangchun Tower, and if the master finds out, you dare to let her meet other guests...... You know the identity of the master. ”
There was a threat in the words, coupled with the sharp eyes of the pair of people who didn't know who they learned, so frightened that Lao Bao nodded without saying a word:
"Yes, yes, in the future, Qingpei will only serve adults, and Mom, I will never let others touch a single hair of her."
With Lao Bao's promise, Lu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, and finally didn't bother others because of himself.
It's just that in Lu Xuan's opinion, this matter may be a matter of course, and in Qing Pei's eyes, it is indeed a great kindness worthy of her retribution.
After many years of tossing and turning, it took him to see someone respect and defend himself so much, Qingpei couldn't help but feel warm, and even a little reluctant to let this person leave.
However, Lu Xuan came here only to correct her name after all, and this place is not for her to be involved in a female stream, so how can she stay for a long time?
Before Qing Pei came back to his senses, Lu Xuan had already turned his head to look at her: "I'll go first, take care of yourself, since I recognize you as a friend, I will come back to you again when I have time in the future." ”
After that, leaving a gentle smile that can easily disturb people's heartstrings, Lu Xuan immediately walked away.
