Chapter 7: The Mysterious Man

How could she see that she wasn't a man?

The girl seemed to see her doubts: "This lady, I have been in this East Building for thirteen years, and there are not a few women who come here to look for people all year round. ”

"This lady, I don't care if you are here to find someone or find fault today, but my East Building also has the rules of my East Building, if you are looking for trouble, don't blame me Bai Sanniang for being polite!"

Seeing that he was recognized, Yu Xiaoman simply stopped hiding it, and looked at Bai Sanniang with the laughter of the people around him: "Sanniang, I didn't come to find fault on purpose, I also came to the East Building to have important things, and I want to meet your master." ”

"See the Lord's house?" Sanniang asked rhetorically, grabbed the melon seeds and threw them in her mouth.

There was another burst of laughter around, and a man hugged the girl and smiled: "This little lady, I'm afraid you don't know, this Bai Sanniang in front of you is the master of the East Building!" ”

Is it the Lord's house?

Yu Xiaoman was stunned, looked at the woman in front of him who was a little out of tune, although he still had questions in his heart, but he still saluted respectfully: "I'm sorry, I didn't know that Sanniang was the master's family, how offended, please forgive Sanniang." ”

Bai Sanniang is a woman in the rivers and lakes, informal, and now she is not flustered when she sees her identity exposed, and she can't help but feel a little more good for her at the moment, spit out the melon seed skin in her mouth, and asked: "But little lady, you came to my east building, what's the matter?" ”

Yu Xiaoman glanced around, and clasped his fists again and saluted: "Please also ask Sanniang to take a step to speak." ”

Bai Sanniang took her to the private room on the third floor, which was different from the promiscuous on the first floor, just walking in, she only felt that this was just a place where literati chanted poetry.

Bai Sanniang knocked the melon seeds again, sat on a stool, poured a cup of tea, and squinted at her: "Say, what is the matter with you, it can't be that you are here to sell yourself, right?" ”

Yu Xiaoman smiled: "Sanniang guessed half right, I did come to sell myself." ”

"Miss!" Xicui was anxious and was about to say something, but was interrupted by Yu Xiaoman raising his hand.

"Oh?" Bai Sanniang looked at her with a smile, "You are an official lady, and you also want to sell yourself?" ”

"Sanniang has good eyesight, but what I sell is the same as that of the silent girl, both of them are selling art and not selling themselves."

"You play a good tune in silence, what's the matter, you also play a good tune?" Bai Sanniang looked at her with some sarcasm.

Yu Xiaoman nodded, with a smug look between his eyebrows and eyes, glanced around, and happened to see a guqin in the corner of the compartment, so he simply walked over, hooked his fingers, and played a stream sound.

The timbre is pleasant, and she can't help but praise: "Good piano." ”

"My piano is carved from a hundred years of agarwood, and the string is made of the best golden python fishing line, mixed with the soaking of ambergris water, and it took seven seven or forty-nine days to make it." When she said this, Bai Sanniang's eyes were full of pride.

Yu Xiaoman nodded and said with a smile: "But no matter how good the piano is, if there is no one to match, it can't be considered a real piano after all." ”

She knelt on the ground, put on her armor, adjusted the tone, and hooked her hand, the sound of the piano was crisp and transparent, like a good tea sliding through the throat, leaving a fragrance in vain.

If you want to talk about playing the piano, in her previous life, she started playing it from the age of four to the age of twenty-four, and she won many trophies of all sizes, and people who listened to her piano couldn't help but praise it.

This time, by all means!

With a light hook of his fingers, Yu Xiaoman took the song he was most familiar with, and only heard the sound of the piano flickering fast and slow, touching and fascinating.

Kneading, hooking, poking, flicking, pressing, flicking.

A variety of skills were used by her, and when the song was over, Yu Xiaoman got up and really saw Bai Sanniang's incredible gaze.

"How about Sanniang, my skills are good, right?" Yu Xiaoman asked.

Sanniang took it away, and the melon seeds in her hand forgot to knock it, and when she heard her ask, she immediately spit out the skin in her mouth, squinting and looking at her again.

"Say it, your request."

As soon as Yu Xiaoman heard it, he knew that it was done.

When she said her request, it was nothing more than two questions: whether she would show her face when she played the piano so that people could see what she looked like, and the silver she got every month was sixty percent of the money in the East Building.

Bai Sanniang was also refreshed, and immediately agreed, but felt that such a faceless way was more mysterious, those dignitaries and nobles who had so much money that they had no land to spend their favorite tricks were still like this.

When the time comes, the left one is muted, and the right one is Yu Xiaoman, and the custody will not let the East Building make a lot of money.

After agreeing on the matter, Yu Xiaoman came out of the East Building.

She made an appointment with Bai Sanniang, and for the convenience of time, her performance was arranged in the evening every time, so that she could stagger everyone in Yufu and avoid being seen by people with a heart.

Xicui asked with some concern: "Miss, can this work?" ”

Yu Xiaoman could see it and sighed: "Whether you can do it or not, you don't know, my family's concubine looks at me a lot, if I don't make some money and save it with me, maybe one day they will wear small shoes." ”

Xicui nodded, but surprisingly did not refute.

Yu Xiaoman discussed the matter, he was in a happy mood, and on the way back to the house, he saw that there was a sugar gourd seller and took two strings.

It has been half a month since the days of mutual cooperation with the East Building, and most people in the capital know that there is a new beauty with a strange temper in the East Building, who plays a good song, the most important thing is that he never shows up, and when he plays the song, he will always block himself with a red curtain, which will only increase the mystery.

However, such a mystery has made more people interested in this bride.

Some people bet that this little lady is a fairy, a fairy who escaped from the palace, and some people say that they don't show up because their faces are full of pockmarks, as long as they show up, everyone will be scared away, where can they still hear the beautiful sound of the piano.

In any case, most of them were full of interest in this mysterious character, and the figure who went to the East Building ran more and more frequently.

Bai Sanniang looked at Yu Xiaoman, who was about to play, while sipping melon seeds: "It's not that I said, since you came, there have been more people running our east building, more and more every time." ”

"It's still Sanniang's operation, if it weren't for Sanniang, there wouldn't be today's Shui Xiaoniang." Yu Xiaoman inserted the hairpin, put a little red on his lips, and complimented.

Bai Sanniang smiled from ear to ear, and only said: "When you come down today, Sanniang will definitely give you a big red envelope!" ”

"I'm just waiting for Sanniang to say this!" Yu Xiaoman put on his armor and made sure that he didn't make any mistakes, so he nodded to Sanniang and went on the field.

It's still a familiar way of playing, but today she changed the tune, only to hear the shouts of the people below getting louder and louder, and when she came off the stage silently, the group of people still didn't stop.

"I want to listen to Manniang's tunes!"

"Man Xiao Niang, listen to Man Xiao Niang!"

Yu Xiaoman looked at Mute who was about to play with some embarrassment, and the other party walked over directly as if she was air, without looking at it.

Yu Xiaoman behind him sighed, since she came, Mute's face has been getting worse day by day.

In the past half a month, every time I met Mute, the other party had a cold face and never said a word to her.

Yu Xiaoman is not a hot person, so he simply treats her as air, and after packing up his things, he turned around and walked upstairs. After a long time, Bai Sanniang also made room for her to rest.

But when she went back to her room and changed her clothes, she suddenly found that the door was locked from the outside, and there was a lot of singing outside, so that no one could come even if she shouted in her voice.

She sighed, and Mute's indifferent face suddenly flashed, and then there was a "bang" outside the doorβ€”

"Search for me!"

Yu Xiaoman was startled, and before she could react, she heard a sudden rush of footsteps behind her, and then the lights went out suddenly, and a pair of dry and rough hands suddenly covered her mouth.

"Hmm!" Who is it!
