Leqin was not in a hurry, raised her hand and motioned for him to sit down, and then sat aside and poured Xiao Fugui a glass of wine.
"Xiao Gongzi is polite, Gongzi is so affectionate to Leqin, he has come to Zuihualou several times, and he thinks about Leqin every time, I really can't help it, how can I not remember?"
"Leqin girl, ouch, I really didn't expect it, you know this." Xiao Fugui rubbed his hands, looking flattered, the appearance of the uncle when he just entered the door was completely gone.
If Xiao Ling'er saw it here, she would definitely be unable to help but complain again. His virtuous wife is a stick, but she can be soft like a king and a lamb to a woman who has never even met in person.
This kind of man, fortunately, Song Lan turned around quickly, and she didn't plan to spend her time on Xiao Fugui all the time, otherwise she would have to get in for half her life.
But Xiao Fugui didn't care so much, he took the wine on the table and drank it all, his hand trembled, and he hesitated and stretched out to Leqin, wanting to hold her hand. "It's great that you know, Miss Leqin, but you still don't know how much I like you, since I first met you, my whole mind has been full of you, and I can't forget you for a moment. It's just that there are too many rules in your drunken flower building, otherwise I would have seen you a long time ago. β
"Xiao Gongzi loves him, and Leqin is ashamed." The corners of Le Qin's lips curved, but her hand was quietly withdrawn from Xiao Fugui's hand, still accompanied by a glass of wine. "It's just that Leqin, as a weak woman, was raised by Zuihualou and her mother, even if she has some hopes in her heart, she can't do anything about it."
As she spoke, Leqin raised her hand and nodded beside her eyes, wiping her tears decently, making Xiao Fugui feel more and more pitiful.
"Actually, even if Leqin has the name of an Oiran now and is loved by so many benefactors, I will know in my heart that those vain things are useless, and there will still be a more beautiful and popular Oiran to replace me in the future. As for me, like all women, I just hope to find a man I like, and who is also in my heart, to serve him and be with him for the rest of my life, and that is enough. It's just such a hope, but I don't know when it will come true. β
"Leqin, I, I'm willing to accompany you."
Xiao Fugui leaned in a little closer, "Miss Leqin, I can't hide it, I've admired the girl for a long time, if I can accompany the girl, let me do anything." β
"Is it really okay to do anything?" Le Qin's eyes widened, "That son, are you willing to redeem Le Qin?" β
"Ransom?"
"That's right, Leqin stays in Zuihualou for a day, and she is still a person in Zuihualou, and you have to listen to your mother's instructions when you see anyone accompanying you, and you can't make your own decisions, but as long as Gongzi redeems Leqin, I can accompany Gongzi every day, what a happy day it will be."
"But......" Xiao Fugui hesitated a little, but only hesitated for a while, and then immediately nodded, "Okay, I will have thirty taels of silver tomorrow, and when the time comes, I will take the money and come to redeem Leqin." β
"Thirty taels, I'm afraid it's not enough, right?" Le Qin chuckled, "Last time, a noble son was willing to take a hundred taels to redeem Le Qin, but my mother refused politely, Xiao Gongzi wanted to redeem it, how could it not be lower than this number." β
"One hundred taels!" Xiao Fugui hissed lightly, and his body couldn't help shaking, "Hehe, Leqin, it's not that I don't want to redeem you, it's just that this one hundred taels is really a lot." β
"Hmph, that boy still doesn't like the music and piano enough." Le Qin pursed her lips, looked aggrieved, and reached out to touch Xiao Fugui's hand.
The kung fu of teasing men, she has learned since she was a child, and she is very handy in doing it, not to mention that Xiao Fugui, a man, has never been able to resist beautiful women, and it is even easier to deal with him, just a few strokes will stir his heart.
"Xiao Gongzi, in fact, you are powerful and majestic and win my heart, if I can follow you, Leqin will definitely serve well in the future. It's just a hundred taels, can it be exchanged for a happy life for the two of us in the future, does Xiao Gongzi still think it's too much? β
"Not much, not more." Xiao Fugui's heart was itching, and he couldn't wait to hug the beauty back immediately, but he ......
The third sister, since she can get thirty taels, maybe tomorrow he will make a fuss and raise a price or something, it is also possible, but it is estimated that it will be fifty taels at most, and there are still fifty taels, where is he going to get it!
Xiao Fugui hesitated a little in his heart, but there was a sound at the door, and Leqin leisurely withdrew his hand and said, "Come in." β
The door of the wing room opened, and it was her maid Xiaoqing who came in, and came in with another pot of wine, replaced the empty wine jug on the table, and put it aside. "Girl, Su Gongzi from the south of the city is here, and my mother asked you to wait."
"I know." Leqin nodded, looked at her, and said, "Eh, Xiaoqing, your earrings seem to be the first time you brought them, they are quite valuable, where did they come from?" β
"It was sent by Brother Zhang." Xiaoqing lowered her body and replied.
"Little lover." Leqin hid her smile, "But Brother Zhang is a handyman in Zuihualou, and he can't earn a few dollars of silver every month, where did he get the spare money to buy such an expensive gift for you." β
"Girl......" Xiaoqing snorted and lowered her voice before continuing, "Brother Zhang won it." β
"Win?"
"Well, there is just an underground gambling house at the mouth of Nanjie Alley, and I heard that because there are not many people who have just opened, the odds are very cost-effective, and you can go in and play as much as you want. And Brother Zhang told me, today, the banker's luck is very back, has been coming out, many players have won a lot of money and left, Brother Zhang took two coins of silver today, and won two taels back. No, I bought this pair of pendants. β
Although Xiaoqing's voice was not high, his eyebrows fluttered, attracting Xiao Fugui's attention, "Xiaoqing, is there really such a good thing?" β
"Oh, what's a good thing or a bad thing, this thing, depending on luck, it's just the luck of the dealer who just caught up with the gambling house today, otherwise I can let others win so much money."
"Where is this place?"
"I heard Brother Zhang say that at the east of South Street, there is a steamed bun shop that you have turned into the house, knock on the door three times, and someone will let you in. WhyγChilde wants to go? β
"Such a good thing, of course I have to go."
Xiao Fugui already likes to gamble, and anyone who has a little spare money can't help but go to the gambling house for a while, when he bumps into this kind of dealer's luck and starts to come out, how can he not join in the fun.
What's more, if you want to redeem Leqin, in addition to the third sister's, there is also a large amount of silver, and when you encounter this kind of opportunity, you naturally can't let it go.
Xiao Fugui thought about it and clenched his fists, "Miss Leqin, you wait for me, when I have enough money, I will definitely come to redeem you, you don't have to listen to your mother's being asked by other men." β
"Then Xiao Gongzi, you must come." Le Qin withdrew the hand holding Xiao Fugui, took a hairpin from his head, and put it in Xiao Fugui's hand, "Leqin looked at Xiao Gongzi to earn two silver taels and come back to redeem me, this hairpin is a token, Xiao Gongzi, don't forget." β
"Leqin......" Xiao Fugui thought of such a thing, and his snot was about to flow out, "It seems that Leqin is really sincere to me, don't worry, wait for me, I'll go and make money." β
"Eh, don't worry." Leqin stopped him, "Xiao Gongzi, this hairpin is worth five taels, I gave it to you because I want to give you some capital, and it also represents my heart." It's just that now I'm still a person from Zuihualou, and things also belong to Zuihualou, can Xiao Gongzi write me an IOU for mortgage. Don't worry, this is just in case my mother puts down the hairpin and loses it, and when you make money to redeem me, it's useless. β
"Okay, it's written." Le Qin said this, and her soft little hand touched Xiao Fugui again, hooking him without hesitation at all, and signed the mortgage slip.
Leqin is so interested in him, only after tonight he gets the money, and even the things he brings are his, and he still cares about what to do.
When the time comes, he will wait to sit on the beauty and make the bastards in Yongxing Village envy to death.
Thinking like this, Xiao Fugui couldn't hold back at all, and was about to say goodbye with the hairpin, "Leqin, then I'll go, I'll get the money tomorrow, I'll come over immediately, you must wait." β
"Childe." Leqin was not in a hurry, and poured a glass of wine from the wine jug brought by Xiaoqing and presented it to Xiao Fugui, "After drinking this glass of wine, I will see you off and congratulate Gongzi on his triumph in advance." β
"Okay." Xiao Fugui didn't doubt him, so he brought it over and drank it, and then he got out of Leqin's room.
It's just that he didn't see it, and when he went out, Leqin still splashed it to the side with a full wine glass, and the smile on his face was immediately taken back, and he took the handkerchief from Xiaoqing's hand and wiped his hands carefully.
Xiaoqing was waiting on the side, and couldn't help but open her mouth, "Girl, this Xiao Fugui is really like what those two girls said, just have courage but not brains, so just say it casually and take the bait." It's very easy for the girls to deal with it, and it's a shame that they do such a big game. β
Le Qin raised her eyebrows slightly, "Others are stupid, but it is better to be shameless, if you want to be able to get rid of him completely, it is natural to spend some effort." Xiaoqing, after passing the word, everything I should have done has been done, and Leqin is waiting for the other half of "Light Gauze Shadow" in Zuihualou. β
"Yes, girl." Xiaoqing answered and went out.
Only then did Leqin stand up and walk to the dresser on the side, where the previous half of the "Light Veil Shadow" score was being placed next to her.
She reached out and touched it, and the smile on her lips was hooked. With the cleverness of those two, she believed that the second half of the book would soon be in her hands.
But...... In fact, she was more interested in the two of them than in the score.
It's really boring to stay in Zuihualou for so long, there is no shortage of women here, but I didn't expect that there would be such interesting women in Tang County.
If this is done, you have to beg for a drink.
