Su Niang went to Gu Ying Building, and saw that the tea banquet had been removed, and the girls and daughters-in-law came to the table to serve food, and the curtains on the railings on all sides were also lowered on three sides, only the side facing Naxiu Lou was still hanging.

Lian Xiang said with a smile: "Madam, the master and the second master have already come, and the second master is also here to probe the Lord of the Mansion to come."

Qi Su Niang glanced at it, and sure enough, she saw Chen Yan changing into a Hangzhou satin robe and civilian clothes, standing at the railing of the flying bridge in Naxiu Building, smiling at her, and was invited by Old Man Cheng to sit down.

The meal time has arrived, the nobles and noblewomen on the two floors have sat down, and the delicacies on the table are delicious, but there are four cold dishes, ten hot dishes, one soup dish, four fine points, four seasonal fruits, four staple foods, and four fine wines, among which bird's nest sea cucumbers, fish, pigs and sheep can not be prepared.

Although Lianxiang is a partial house, since she called Yangzhou, even the people's contacts in the house are all brought forward by her, and she is also regarded as the main room, and she was pulled by Qi Su Niang, so she sat down with Mrs. Futai and Mrs. Eight General Merchants.

Qi Su Niang rarely socializes with the grandmothers of various provinces, although it is a table of meals, but she nods as a courtesy, and says a word or two of gossip, the ladies of each province have known for most of the past half a year, and they do not come to disturb her, they have their own good poems and good writings, and they laugh and joke with each other in fun and fun.

After three rounds of drinking, the opposite Naxiu Building is already lively, the sound of the men toasting each other, the sound of the order, the sound of guessing the fist, the sound of the poem and the words one after another, the middle of the delicate persuasion, the sound of coquettishness, flirting and scolding is also the sound of the ear. Although Qi Su Niang didn't hear the sound of men and women making music for the first time, when she thought that Chen Yan was also in it, she couldn't help but fidget.

Fortunately, it didn't take long to hear the sound of the moon qin, covering the sound of men and women, and the two sides of the Linglong Shuanglou Flying Bridge slowly quieted down, and listened to the famous prostitute singing, and sang openly: "Pretty people, forget the first time they met, at that time, you love me, I love you, and love is prepared." I really hope that the world will last forever, who knows that you will lose me halfway, and I will not stop when you stop. Flower thief, righteous prisoner, lose your conscience and deceive women, I hope you will answer the original curse early. ”

After singing this song, the gentlemen in Naxiu Lou were silent for a long time, but the ladies of Gu Yinglou were laughing, Qi Su Niang covered her mouth and smiled: "Which sister is this, singing such an interesting song." ”

Lian Xiang also laughed so hard that she whispered: "It seems to be Liang Guilin in Su Sing Lane, Cao Si and the sister who knows Lord Liu's bag, I heard that I can't be spoiled, and I stayed outside for 20 days in January, and I couldn't see the four or five concubines at home." In recent days, I heard that the upper and lower people have made money, got rid of their lowly status, and changed their backgrounds, so they are going to be carried into the door to make a side house under the tea ceremony. ”

Qi Su Niang laughed and sighed. "It's also a favorite. to dare to sing such a song. ”

Lianxiang couldn't help but smile. "Look. Liang Guilin came over. She sang this song to please the grandmother in Liu's house. In the end, you have to enter the door and make it small. ”

Qi Su Niang looked over. Sure enough, I saw a little girl holding a beautiful woman with a little foot and walked over from the flying bridge. Kneel down and kowtow at the railing of Gu Yinglou. "Greetings to the grandmothers."

On the second seat, Mrs. Cao Si Tongzhi smiled. He waved his hand. The girl from behind her walked up. Rewarded Liang Guilin with a pair of tortoiseshell bracelets. The girl on the ground behind Liang Guilin hurriedly picked it up. Liang Guilin kowtowed again. "Thank you, grandmothers." There was unconcealed joy in his tone. was picked up by the girl. Go back upstairs to Naxiu.

The daughters-in-law and girls waiting in the Gu Ying Building probed their brains. They all giggled. "Look. Lord Liu is giving her hairpins. Miss Liang's pass is over. ”

Rui'er came up and poured wine for Lianxiang. also smiled: "This Miss Liang is a smart person." ”

Although Qi Su Niang was upset when she heard the sound of the joy upstairs in Naxiu, she didn't expect that there would be such interesting things at this banquet, so she barely cheered up and stared wide-eyed.

Then, in the ninth lane of the old city, Chen Sanguan sang a piece of Erhuang, although it was a normal minor key, Qi Su Niang listened to her voice very well, and when she saw her coming over and kowtowed, there were seven or eight grandmothers on the upper floor of Naxiu who gave rewards.

Lian Xiang said with a smile: "I still have her reward here, since there are many people who reward her, it is enough." Looking at Banye putting away the two blue hairpins, "She has always been careful and attentive, and her reputation among the ladies is better than among the masters." ”

Qi Su Niang looked at it, only to feel that the hairpin man was a little familiar, "Who is the hairpin for her?" Hasn't she been taken over yet? ”

Mrs. Wangfu next to her smiled: "The hairpin for her is Mr. Wei, a famous scholar in Yangzhou, she is worth a lot of money, and there are many benefactors. ”

Qi Su Niang suddenly realized that the person with the hairpin was the person who teased her on the shore of Hongqiao, no wonder it was a little familiar.

The third one on the field is Yang Xiaobao, a famous prostitute in Yangzhou, Qi Su Niang watched from afar, Yang Xiaobao was only twenty-two or three years old, she was really outstanding, and she could be called "stunning", she was a human being in two lives, and she had never seen a more beautiful woman than Yang Xiaobao.

Qi Su Niang listened to Yang Xiaobao's play

Lian Xiang also said very softly: "It's the boss in the Cheng Mansion." ”

Qi Su Niang glanced at Mrs. Cheng, who was on the chairwoman's face, and swallowed and foamed, "The boss's sixtieth birthday has already been done?" ”

Lian Xiang whispered: "The seventieth birthday ...... last year"

Qi Su Niang

didn't speak, watching Yang Xiaobao being supported by two girls, tiptoe less than three inches to the fence and kowtow. Mrs. Cheng nodded, and the daughter-in-law behind her stepped forward to reward three makeup satins and a pair of golden phoenix hairpins.

Qi Su Niang avoided the scene of seeing the wrinkled face of Master Cheng giving Yang Xiaobao hairpins, but she heard the sound of cheers and laughter on the side of Naxiu Building.

Qi Su Niang put her hand under the table, rubbed the goosebumps that came out of her body with all her might, and drank three glasses of Jinhua wine in a row to suppress the feeling of nausea.

Suddenly, Sister Gui sneered behind her, Qi Suniang looked up, and recognized that it was Jin Guan of the Shuangqing class who started singing, and she still sang her best "Meet and Scold", but without the duet of Yuguan, it was inevitable that it would be a little discolored.

Although Qi Suniang invited the Shuangqing class to the mansion to sing, she had never seen the Su opera take off their makeup. Looking at it at this time, the golden official was really handsome.

Although she is not as good as Yang Xiaobao, she is so coquettish and shallow when she sings "Meet and Scold", and she is so spicy and charming, even she is a woman who is distracted. Thinking about it again, the Shuangqing class is the most famous Su opera troupe in Yangzhou, and the ladies in each house are not called the ground, and Jin Guan'er is afraid that he is more decent than Chen Erguan when he comes forward to receive the reward.

Seeing that Jin Guan was about to finish singing, Lianxiang turned around and beckoned Banye to prepare for the reward, Qi Su Niang was thinking about whether to let Bi'er prepare for the reward, Sister Gui suddenly whispered: "Mrs. Zheng got up and changed her clothes." Lianxiang's face changed, she looked back, and sure enough, she saw that Mrs. Zheng had walked to the staircase, so she had to say to Banye: "That's it, put it away." ”

Qi Su Niang was strange, but when she saw that the grandmothers at each table turned their heads and signaled the personal girl to put away the property to be rewarded, she couldn't help but exclaim: "This is ......"

Lian Xiang sighed, "Madame doesn't know, the rules of the officials and gentry of Yangzhou City, the ladies and daughters of the businessmen, at such a big banquet, if there is a grandmother in any house who gets up to change clothes, it is to tell the ladies that the sister in the singing place is restless, please don't give that sister dignity." ”

Qi Su Niang was surprised and surprised, Sister Gui said: "Master Zheng has been obsessed with Jin Guan recently, and he has been living in Peony Lane morning and night, and he hasn't been back to the house for more than ten days. Mrs. Zheng sent her family to pick her up, but she was scolded by Jin Guan, but she could sing a few plays, and she regarded herself as the queen mother. He snorted coldly, "My aunt and grandmother have a good heart, but I want to reward her, when she sings in our house, she seduces the good things that the master does in the East Water Pavilion behind her back, and treats us all as dead people." ”

Qi Su Niang was speechless when she heard it, Lian Xiang sighed, and was about to speak, but she saw Jin Guan slowly walking over from the flying bridge with a little girl.

Qi Su Niang turned her head and didn't look at the Jin Guan who was kneeling at the railing, Gu Ying Lou was like a deathly silence, and the women in the building were either pitying, or despised, or not caring about the pain, or relieved, looking at the Jin Guan kowtowing for the seventh time, and said in a crying voice: "Say hello to the grandmothers." ”

The noise of Naxiu Lou gradually quieted down, as if the situation here was not right, Jin Guan kowtowed his tenth head, but still no one paid attention, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, got up and ran back to Naxiu Lou while crying.

Qi Su Niang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, such a scene of joining forces to bully people really made her a little overwhelmed, Lianxiang said in a low voice: "It's no wonder that she is too ignorant, Mrs. Zheng must be worried that Master Zheng will carry her into the mansion, I'm afraid that she won't obey ......."

Qi Su Niang nodded helplessly, and said worriedly: "If she complains to Master Zheng...... but she heard a loud slap in the building. Qi Su Niang and Lian Xiang were both startled, and when they looked up, they saw Jin Guan covering his face and running down Naxiu Lou crying, "What's wrong?" ”

Sister Gui gloated: "Master Zheng slapped Jin Guan and told her to get out." ”

Qi Su Niang never expected this, and exclaimed: "Why is this? Lian Xiang was silent, Sister Gui glanced at Qi Su Niang, and her face slowly had a sad look of rabbit death, "At such a big banquet, she lost her dignity in front of the ladies in the city, and Master Zheng, who brought her, naturally lost her face. These sisters are just things to fight for the face of the masters......"

Qi Su Niang was speechless, stunned for a long time before coming back to her senses, only to feel bored in her heart, so she wanted to go downstairs to breathe. As soon as she bowed, she scared Lianxiang a lot, and pulled her away, "Madam, it's Miss Dong dancing." ”

Qi Su Niang was also startled, turned her head to look at Naxiu Building, and sure enough, she saw a large open space in the hall, Dong Guan'er didn't know when she had begun to dance, and the faint sound of thin bamboo was slowly sounding.

The grandmothers in Gu Ying's upper mansions saw that Qi Su Niang was half up, and they all looked over, with an inquiring meaning in their eyes. Qi Su Niang secretly wiped a handful of sweat and hurriedly sat down, and Rui'er and Sister Gui behind her exhaled at the same time.

Sister Gui'er complained: "Madam, you can frighten the slave maid, if you leave, our lord will lose face at such a big banquet, and after the banquet is over, we are afraid that we will not even be able to enter the mansion gate......" was pulled by Rui'er, and then stopped speaking.

Qi Su Niang smiled: "I didn't hear the sound, I thought it hadn't started yet...... As she spoke, she watched Mrs. Zheng finish changing her clothes, returned to the table, and laughed softly with the grandmothers in the mansions.
