Chapter 30: Compassion Causes Trouble
Yuexin leaned on the edge of the window and watched the man in black lead the two women holding the pipa slowly down from the pavilion opposite, through the simple wooden bridge connecting the narrow river, Yuexin looked at the simple wooden bridge and thought: "This wooden bridge is really a failure!" The surrounding buildings are so elegant, I don't want to spend some effort to build a decent bridge, even if I simply turn the decoration to the wooden bridge, it is good to reflect the surrounding environment! He was so distracted, but when he heard the commotion downstairs, his pleasing heart was hooked again, and he hurriedly lifted the bamboo curtain of the elegant seat, and poked his head out to look at the teahouse hall.
It turned out that the three people who had just sung and commented had entered the teahouse, and the shopkeeper was taking them upstairs to the private seat!
Yue Xin retracted her head excitedly, and said to Lan Qing, Zhen Ye, and Ji Yue in a mysterious way: "Do you know who I saw?" Lan Qing's eyelids raised and said, "It should be the three people who sang the commentary just now!" Yuexin pouted and said, "Brother Lanqing, you are so boring!" Guess it right. Lan Qing looked at Yuexin's cute and bowful appearance and felt very cute, and said with a smile: "We can invite them in to sing." ”
"Really?" Yuexin asked happily with the pair of big watery eyes.
"Really, but that's what it takes." Lan Qing said as he conjured a yellow gold ingot from the palm of his hand.
Yuexin asked curiously, "What is this?" ”
"This is the basis of survival in this world, and most people in this world pursue it all their lives." Lan Qingdao.
Yuexin took the gold ingots from Lan Qing's hand and looked at it over and over, and bit it with her teeth: "Oops, it's quite hard!" Seeing this, Zhen Ye couldn't help but smack at her: "Hey, you crazy girl, do you think this gold ingots are also eaten?" This is money, and in the world money can buy everything. Stupid! Yuexin pouted and looked at Zhen Ye aggrievedly and said, "There is no money in our Qingqiu!" I haven't seen it again, how would I know. Besides, if I knew everything, would I still want to see the world? Zhen Ye flicked his finger and said, "You chant the scriptures!" Lan Qing and Ji Yue couldn't help but laugh when they saw this situation.
Lan Qing motioned to Yuexin to give him the gold ingots, and Yuexin returned them to him; Lan Qing put the gold ingots in his hand and held them, and the gold ingots were gone, but they turned into a handful of golden beans.
Ji Yue was dumbfounded, and said innocently: "Great hall, why do you want to turn gold ingots into golden beans?" Is this golden bean edible? Lan Qing was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Ji Yue to ask such a question, and he didn't have time to answer, but he saw Zhen Ye laughing on the side, and said happily: "Ji Yue, you are really a good girlfriend, one gnaws on gold ingots, and the other wants to eat gold beans." Lan Qing couldn't help but laugh, and smiled silently on the side.
Ji Yue's face flushed, she turned her back shyly, covered her face with her hands, and said unconvinced: "Stinky leaves, don't bring such a dampening thing!" Zhen Ye was a little embarrassed when he saw that he was ashamed of Ji Yue, but he didn't show his face, he only glanced at Yuexin with his eyes, and then picked up the teacup in front of him and pretended to be tea.
Yuexin was a little angry when she saw this, and sat at the door of the elegant seat angrily, with her back to Zhenye, Ji Yue stood in the corner of the wall and hung her head shyly and timidly, Lan Qing looked around at the three of them, and didn't know what to say, but the atmosphere was too dull, and after thinking about it, she smiled and said to Ji Yue: "Ji Yue, you go downstairs and talk to the owner of the teahouse, just say that our No. 3 elegant seat wants to listen to the play, let him arrange it." Ji Yue was already very embarrassed and cramped standing in the corner, but now she heard Lan Qing call her downstairs to call a play, she couldn't ask for it, so she hurriedly agreed, and rushed out of the elegant seat and ran under the teahouse.
Yuexin also felt bored at this time, and couldn't pull her face, and heard Lan Qing tell Ji Yue to go down to the play, so she also went downstairs with Ji Yue.
Lan Qing saw that Yuexin and Ji Yue had gone downstairs, and couldn't help but tease Zhen Ye and said, "Stinky boy, how do you feel about pouting the two of you?" Zhen Ye shook his head and sighed: "This woman is really troublesome!" The heart is small. The two brothers looked at each other and smiled, waiting quietly for pleasure, and Ji Yue called the singer to comment.
After a while, the shopkeeper followed Yuexin and Ji Yue to their private seat, and the shopkeeper said to them with a smile on his face: "Guest officer, but how many of you want to play?" Lan Qing nodded, and the shopkeeper said again: "How many points do you want from the guest officer?" Lan Qing frowned slightly, and did not speak, but only sent the hand in front of the shopkeeper, spread out his palm, and there were two golden beans in the palm.
The shopkeeper's eyes straightened when he saw the golden beans in Lan Qing's hand, and he quickly took the golden beans, and said in a loud voice: "Guest officer, the small one will be arranged for you!" After a while, the three people who sang and commented came in.
Yuexin, Lan Qing, Zhen Ye and Ji Yue all raised their heads and looked at the three of them carefully, the two women holding the pipa in their arms, one was wearing a water red satin cardigan, a moon-white long gauze skirt, covered with a red floor-length gown, and the other was wearing an emerald green satin cardigan, a moon-white long gauze skirt, covered with a green floor-length gown, combing the same hairstyle, but the color of the velvet flowers was different, it seemed to be the same as the clothes, with the same color velvet flowers; And it is also a pair of slender and light eyebrows, the narrow and uplifted Danfeng eyes are half-open, and the fan-like fluffy eyelashes cast a faint arc-shaped shadow on the lower eyelids, all of which are gentle and gentle with low eyebrows, but the skin of these two women is surprisingly good, just like the mutton fat white jade, silky, delicate; It's like a dough of flour, and the two women look exactly the same, thinking that these two women should be a pair of twins.
The man in the long shirt was cheerful and funny when he rapped, but when he saw this person at close range, he looked sad, which was diametrically opposed to the happy appearance on the stage just now, the wrinkles on his forehead were like knife carvings, like the dry river, the eyes were not big, and the surroundings of the eyes were also squeezed with wrinkles, although the eyes were also glowing, but there was a trace of despair in his eyes, which caused his face to seem to be aging almost ten years early.
Lan Qing, Yuexin, Zhen Ye, and Ji Yue looked at them at the same time, these three people also secretly glanced at the four of them, and felt that these four people were all elegant and handsome, with a dragon and phoenix among people, and their bearing was extraordinary, and they were by no means ordinary people.
The man in the long shirt couldn't help but gasp, thinking that these four people might not be able to deal with it, so he cheered up and said, "Four guest officers, what kind of tune do you want?" The red-shirted woman hurriedly handed over the play fold to Lan Qing, Lan Qing didn't open it to read, and directly handed it to Yuexin, Yuexin pretended to look at it, and returned it to Lan Qingdao: "Brother Lanqing, I'm not good at playing, so you should come!" Lan Qing smiled and took the excerpt from Yuexin's hand and looked down at it.
Taking advantage of this moment, the man in the long shirt looked at Lan Qing and the four of them back and forth a few times with his eyes, and felt that Lan Qing and Na Zhenye were jade and metallore, with a lofty spirit, graceful and suave, and they were superior, and somehow a few more glances at the two of them could give birth to a sense of awe for the two of them.
Lan counted "Three Laughs" and "Jade Dragonfly". The three of them began to sing as they babbled.
After singing, Yuexin invited the three of them to sit down and drink tea, although Lan Qing and Zhenye were a little reluctant in their hearts, they were very happy to see Yuexin, so they had to endure the unhappiness in their hearts, and reluctantly sat together and listened to their chat.
The folk customs of this Qingqiu are simple, and the boundaries between men and women are not as clear as in the world, so although Yuexin is dressed as a man, she doesn't mind talking to these two girls.
The two girls' faces were flushed with shame, and they didn't squeak, they only looked at the man in the long shirt with their eyes, and Lan Qing had no choice but to greet the man when he saw this: "May I ask Mr. Taifu?" The man in the long shirt said with sincere fear: "The son is high-minded, the contemptible person is just a cloth cloth, there is nothing to talk about, just call me the noon sheep, these are my two daughters, the red shirt is the sister, named Chunhua, the green shirt is the sister, named Qiuyue, the singing is not good, the guest officer smiled!" After listening to the monthly salary, he immediately grabbed the words and said: "Uncle Wu, you sing so well!" Well, no, it should be both interesting and good-sounding. Wu Yangzi waved his hand modestly and said: "The guest officer praised it!" Lan Qing's heart moved slightly when he heard the names of these two girls, the spring flowers bloomed for a season, brilliant but short-lived, the autumn moon was cloudy and sunny, and it was erratic, and he always felt that this division was destined to not arrange any good fate for these two girls, but it was not easy to say, just smiled and looked at the spring flowers, autumn moon.
At this time, there was a lot of noise outside, it seemed to be the private seat next door, and the shopkeeper panicked into the No. 3 private seat where Lan Qing was located, nodded apologetically and said, "Guest officer, I'm sorry!" The price you paid is enough for these three dramas to accompany you for a day, but the man who came next door insisted on listening to the spring flowers and singing a little song with Qiuyue, wronged you, today's guest officer's tea and snacks are free of charge, please forgive me! After speaking, he motioned to the noon sheep to bring spring flowers and autumn moon to go.
Chunhua and Qiuyue saw the posture of the shopkeeper and knew who was coming, but they were so frightened that their faces were like earth, trembling all over, trembling with Wu Yangzi and the shopkeeper preparing to go out, looking at Chunhua happily, Qiuyue's face was not right, she stood up and walked to the door and stretched out her arm to stop the shopkeeper, Wu Yangzi, Chunhua and Qiuyue, his face was cold, and his tone was unhappy: "Xiaoer, there must be a first come, then come!" The shopkeeper said anxiously: "Guest officer, I see that you are from other places, do you know who is ordering this spring flower and autumn moon first?" The small one advises you not to be aggressive, just get the benefits! Yuexin heard what the shopkeeper said, and he was angry, and said very angrily: "Why, this son just won't let me today!" Although the shopkeeper was a little annoyed and got in the way, he didn't want to cause trouble yet, so he still put his last patience and said at this moment: "Guest officer, no matter where you come from, just when you come to this Wucheng, you can inquire, but no one dares to provoke the Black Hades next door." After hearing this, Yuexin didn't turn around for a while, and asked directly: "Hades also came to this world to turn?" Hades can be unreasonable? I'll meet him! Lan Qing and Zhen Ye saw the pleasant reaction, and exchanged glances, knowing that she had misunderstood, Zhen Ye winked at Lan Qing, Lan Qing understood, just sat there and watched coldly, Zhen Ye got up and walked to the shopkeeper and said coldly: "Shopkeeper, how much silver this Black Yama King will pay for singing, we will pay twice the price." Dian Xiaoer heard Zhen Ye's voice and had a cold feeling to the bone, not only that, but from the moment Zhen Ye approached him, there was an indescribable deterrent, which directly taught him the feeling of wanting to run away, Dian Xiaoer barely cheered up, and didn't even have the courage to look up at Zhen Ye, and explained in a low voice: "Guest officer, it's not a matter of money, it's that we can't afford to provoke the Black Yama King." This Black Yama King is overturning the clouds in this Wucheng and is omnipotent, so to speak, the king of Wucheng is his Black Yama King. ”
"Then Ben Gongzi will go to meet the Black Hades." Zhen Ye said in a deep voice, since the shopkeeper stood beside him, he felt that there was a negative air pressure above his head, which almost pressed him out of breath, and when he heard Zhen Ye say this, he didn't even dare to refute it at all, just obediently led Zhen Ye to the next seat.
Yuexin also wanted to go with him, but when he was about to leave, he didn't know when Lan Qing walked to his side, and he didn't say anything, but he dragged her arm expressionlessly, pulled her to the tea table, and motioned for her to sit down.
