Chapter IX: Conflict

"Moran, Moran!"

Due to the next day's study in the children's art hall, I was too nervous before going to bed, and I was a little excited, so that I couldn't sleep at night, I originally planned to leave at three o'clock in the morning, but now it was close to the hour, but Bai Moran was still asleep, and at this time, Jiang Cai'er hurriedly pushed open the door, walked in quickly, and shouted anxiously.

Hearing the shouting, Bai Mo sat up, shook his head, and looked at the light outside the window.

"It's over, it's over, I've overslept"

She crawled out of bed one after another, and put on the new clothes of the children's art hall that had been prepared to hang on Mu Shi the day before yesterday.

"How did you get it, I waited for you downstairs for a long time, I saw that you didn't come down, I just came up to look for you, we went so late for the first time, I'm afraid that my mother in charge will blame" Seeing this, Jiang Cai'er hurriedly came over to help Bai Moran tidy up the clothes on his body.

"I'm sorry, Sister Cai'er, I was too nervous last night and couldn't sleep, if you hadn't called me, I don't know when I would have to sleep, would it be too late to rush over now?" Bai Moran explained with a bitter face,

"I don't know, we can only run over quickly"

"Good"

After dressing up and washing up briefly, the two hurried away without breakfast.

It didn't take long for Jiang Cai'er and Bai Moran to run to the door of the children's art hall panting, and at this time they saw a number of people standing at the door, led by a middle-aged woman wearing a long skirt embroidered with red sandalwood and a Tilian pattern, with a standard Chaoyun near incense bun on her head, standing expressionlessly, a woman next to her was wearing a water-red straight skirt with ink patterns, it was Dong Ping, the deacon of Qiuxianglou, and at this moment, Dong Ping was looking at Bai Moran and Jiang Caier, who were panting and running with an angry face.

"You two are so bold that you let the two mothers in charge wait outside the door for a long time"

At this time, an attendant behind the woman in purple looked at them and rebuked them coldly.

"Deacon Dong and Ding's mother, Mo Ran stayed up all night last night due to excessive nervousness, so I got up late this morning, I hope the two deacons are thinking about her for the first time, spare her."

Jiang Cai'er hurriedly stepped forward, and suddenly knelt in front of Dong Ping and the deacon known as Ding's mother, and as she spoke, she turned her head and glanced at Bai Moran, who also knelt down with her understanding.

"She is the deacon of the Children's Art Hall, Mother Ding," Jiang Caier reminded in Bai Moran's ear softly,

"Okay, you Jiang Cai'er, Deacon Dong remembered that you had merit, so that you could take Bai Moran with you, but you are good, you took her to make trouble on the first day, and you will follow us back to experience the life of the guests again," said an entourage behind Dong Ping.

"Ah, don't, don't, Deacon Dong, I know it's wrong, next time I don't dare, I will definitely take Bai Moran with me"

Hearing that she was going to take her back, Jiang Cai'er's face changed greatly, and she hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy.

"Sister Xiufang, according to the eldest sister's instructions, I will hand her over to you, if there is any situation, you can just let Jiang Cai'er tell me."

Dong Ping ignored Jiang Cai'er, but turned her head sideways and explained to Ding's mother next to her.

"Please rest assured, Sister Ping, the eldest sister's instructions should be taken to heart"

Ding's mother nodded and said respectfully.

"Then it's going to trouble my sister?" Saying that, Dong Ping turned around and entered the door and said, "What are you waiting for, let's go in!" ”

A group of people, after listening to Dong Ping and Ding's mother into the gate, after entering is a small courtyard, opposite is a wall with the inscription "Golden Emblem and Jade Zhen" and carved bamboo and piano patterns of the shadow wall, they did not stop, went straight through the screen door into the front yard, and then through the front yard gate into the inner courtyard, and from the end of the inner courtyard turned left through the verandah into a small courtyard separated by a west wing and verandah, opposite is an ear room, and this ear room is their destination that day, and Dong Ping took his entourage to the main house at the end of the inner courtyard.

At this time, in the ear room, there were many girls or girls who were quite young, each holding a lute.

"Okay, you've all seen it, this is the music room, mainly to learn music and musical instruments, such as pipa, qin, zheng, gonghou, etc., qin, chess, calligraphy and painting in the early stage we mainly learn piano art, the second year began to learn calligraphy and painting, the third year to learn chess art, from the fourth year, you can choose the same specialized skills for further study, you don't have to be proficient in everything"

Ding's mother walked to the front and introduced to Bai Moran, and then she paused and continued: "But because the bustard's mother ordered, for you to focus on cultivating music, so you have to learn hard in music."

After speaking, she looked at Jiang Cai'er again and said, "Cai'er, you have completed your studies before, and the piano skills assessment is not bad, now you are responsible for teaching Mo Ran's most basic skills."

Jiang Cai'er was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly saluted: "Yes, thank you Mother Ding"

"Regarding the use of items, and other difficulties, if you have any questions, you can find Mother Kong in the sound room."

Ding's mother turned around and left after speaking, leaving Jiang Cai'er secretly happy.

"Hey, Sister Cai'er, didn't you say that you were only sold to Qiuxianglou a few days ago, and Ding's mother said that you had already finished your business? Also took the assessment? ”

Bai Moran thought about it and felt that something was wrong, and asked questioningly.

"Uh... This..."

Jiang Cai'er was suddenly questioned, and she didn't know how to answer, her eyes "snorted" and kept turning, and only replied after a while: "That's the case, my young master is a famous talent in Pinghai City, but my family is poor, and there is no talent at all, in order not to be disliked by the young master, so I took the reward money given by my young master and secretly came here to register, and learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, hehe"

Jiang Cai'er smiled smugly after speaking, as if she was showing off her little head of the mechanism.

"Little slut, don't stand next to me, go away!"

At this time, a girl next to Bai Moran who was wearing a goose yellow spring shirt and was learning pipa yelled at Bai Moran,

"Yikes..."

Bai Moran was taken aback by the sudden reprimand, and she hurriedly hid behind Jiang Cai'er.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here"

After speaking, Jiang Cai'er walked up to the girl, squinted at the girl and said, "People didn't recruit you, didn't provoke you, and didn't affect you, why are you scolding?" It's all in one nest, who are you scolding for being a slut? ”

"Who are you! How dare you talk to this girl? ”

The girl in yellow suddenly stood up and threw the pipa man aside, looking domineering.

"You return Miss Ben, now in the Children's Art Museum, after the future, whether you will be mixed into Ye Ji or the second and the other two, now you have to pretend to be high in front of this girl, should you look in the mirror first, and don't look at yourself how many catties and taels you have?"

Jiang Caier did not back down and scolded the girl in yellow.

"Yo, little slut, I think you're itching, right?" After Huang Yi was scolded by Jiang Cai'er, she couldn't hold her face, only to see her turn around and shout to the people behind her: "Sisters, you can watch it, what are you waiting for, don't beat her yet"

Saying that, the woman in yellow rushed up and grabbed Jiang Caier's hair and pulled it all around, and before Jiang Caier could react, the woman in yellow and a group of girls behind her also rushed up and grabbed Jiang Caier and beat her wildly.

Jiang Cai'er was dazed by the sudden beating of the group, screaming again and again.

"Sister Cai'er!"

Bai Moran saw that Jiang Cai'er was beaten by the group, and quickly ran up to participate in the fight, uh, an eight-year-old child, who had no combat effectiveness at all, and before he could hit anyone, he was immediately grabbed by a chubby girl and fell to the ground.

"What are you doing?"

At this time, Dong Ping suddenly appeared in the hall, and the entourage standing behind her scolded loudly,

Everyone immediately stopped and looked at the person who came, although they didn't know him, but they should not be ordinary people in terms of dress and style, so the woman in yellow respectfully bowed and asked, "Dare to ask who you are, why haven't you seen it?" ”

"I haven't even seen the mother in charge of Qiuxianglou, are you blind?"

The maid behind Dong Ping continued to reprimand angrily.

"Ah, it turned out to be the mother in charge of Qiu Xianglou, but the children's art hall doesn't seem to be under your control."

And at this time, the chubby girl who threw Bai Moran to the ground just now said in a weird way.

"yes, why bother us?"

"It is"

And the entourage of the girl in yellow also chimed in.

Dong Ping's entourage behind him was speechless, and he was about to theorize.

"Okay"

Dong Ping scolded, then glanced at the fat girl fiercely and said: "Although I can't control the head of the children's art museum, in fact, I don't have to care, but my relationship with the landlord is not comparable to your mother Ding, I don't care about you today, even if I scold your mother Ding, she won't dare to reply, let alone you."

After Dong Ping finished speaking, she looked at Bai Moran, who had a blue nose and swollen face, and Jiang Cai'er, who was beaten to the point of bleeding, waved her hand and turned around and walked out, the woman in yellow and everyone breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and shouted triumphantly,

"Sisters, go on!"

Saying that, the girl in yellow led everyone to swarm up like wolves, ready to continue beating Jiang Cai'er,

At this time, Dong Ping's voice came from outside the door: "Steward Hong, you children here don't take me very seriously, you discipline me like this, you and Xiufang can do it yourself."

"Hey, Dong Zhangshi, look at what you said, who dares to be disrespectful to you, that is disrespectful to the landlord, come on, go and pull out those sluts who don't have long eyes and beat the thirty boards"

At this time, a man's voice sounded, and after a short time after speaking, several big men came in, grabbed the girl in yellow and the chubby girl and escorted them out.

I saw a middle-aged man in a gray coat standing at the door looking at the girl in yellow who was escorted out and said, "Miss Zhang, where do you say, where did you get the courage to dare to be disrespectful to Dong Zhang?" Your father is only an agricultural clerk at most, even if your father is arrogant, he doesn't dare to be disrespectful to Dong Zhang, a brainless thing" He waved his big hand and said: "Let's start!" ”

After a while, the courtyard resounded with the sound of "popping" boards and the sound of hissing and exhausted wails. The rest of the girls who participated in the beating were all huddled in the corner, trembling rhythmically with the sound of "popping" outside.

At night, Bai Moran and Jiang Cai'er were arranged to live in a room in the backyard alone, and someone brought a plaster to help them wipe it.

"Sister Cai'er, I'm really sorry for you today"

"It's okay, what's this injury?"

"But, Sister Cai'er. You don't have to have a conflict with her."

"Hey, I'm not used to seeing people bully you, right?"

"Jiang Cai'er, you come out for me!"

At this time, the voice of the woman in yellow who had been clashing during the day came from outside the house.
