Chapter 98: Small Talk

The sun is setting in the west, and the figures are scattered.

Xiping Street, Xufu.

The guests dispersed, and the courtyard gradually faded from the hustle and bustle of the day. In the garden, the stage is also deep in twilight.

The maids were cleaning up the scraps of the feast, and the servants were moving the tables, chairs, and wine utensils used for the feast back to the storeroom one by one.

Only the main hall is still brightly lit and lively.

The housekeeper instructed the servants to remove all the furnishings in the hall and clean up a large space to make room for singing and singing.

On one side there are two rows of circle chairs and a few desks, and on one side are empty and smooth floor tiles.

The four servants worked together to carry the rocking chair and carried Su Zhe to the front hall with the chair.

Su Jin followed him all the way, and told him from time to time: "Go slowly, don't go against my father." ”

After entering the front hall, Mrs. Xu and the others hurriedly got out of the way and beckoned the little servant to put the rocking chair in the middle.

Mrs. Xu leaned over and asked with concern, "Is it cold?" Do you want to add a brocade quilt? ”

Su Zhe shook his head slightly, and replied weakly, "It's not cold, Sister don't worry." ”

Mrs. Xu nodded, looked at everyone, and said, "Take a seatβ€”"

A few juniors answered yes.

Su Zhe was covered with two brocade quilts and sat on a rocking chair, with Su Jin sitting on her right hand and Mrs. Xu on her left. In the back row sat Li Bozhou and Xu Qinghe.

Wait a while, and the show will begin

Several servants took the stage one after another, babbling and singing, but the tone was not as high-pitched and intense as in the daytime, and the singing became soothing and delicate.

Mrs. Xu listened for a while, then turned her head sideways and asked, "What does Brother think?" ”

Su Zhe bowed his head and said "good".

The two elders talked a few words from time to time, and Su Jin silently accompanied them.

The three people in the back row had already chatted in a low voice-

"Cousin, this Jichun class you invited not only sings well, but also looks good." Su Jingshu said to the woman beside her.

Xu Qinghe smiled and asked in a low voice, "With such a thick layer of powder one by one, my cousin can still see what he looks like?" Even if it's good-looking, it's a melt-out. ”

Su Jingshu glanced at her, leaned over and whispered: "The servant who sang the best period of the flower moon today, dressed as a man and a woman, is much better than a woman in terms of figure and appearance. ”

Xu Qinghe knew who his cousin was talking about when he heard this, and said in a low voice: "That person is called Sun Qiuhan, and he does have a beautiful appearance." ”

"Cousin has seen it? Is it really beautiful? Su Jingshu was suddenly excited, couldn't hold back her curiosity, and desperately wanted to take a look at the real person.

Xu Qinghe said in a low voice: "Not only have I seen it, but I also made a joke." ”

"Cousin, didn't you offend that Lang Jun?" Su Jingshu gossiped.

Xu Qinghe glanced at Li Bozhou, who was watching the play quietly next to him, and said to his cousin in his ear: "I saw his slender back at first, and I thought it was a woman, so I called a girl. I didn't think that I would turn around and be a manβ€”it was really embarrassing and embarrassing at the moment......"

When Su Jingshu heard this, she couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly raised her sleeves to cover it, and asked in a low voice, "Does Lang Jun blame his cousin?" ”

Xu Qinghe said in a low voice: "I apologize to him, guess what he said?" ”

"Isn't it used to being mistaken for a woman?" Su Jingshu reacted immediately and said to her.

Xu Qinghe nodded, "I'm definitely not the only one who mistook it, and he is used to it." ”

Li Bozhou couldn't help but ask out loud on the side, "What are you two muttering about?" ”

Su Jingshu immediately turned her head sideways and said to him with a smile: "Husband, let's also invite Ji Chunban to sing in the house, okay?" My mother-in-law likes to listen to dramas very much. ”

Li Bozhou responded: "I think you like it." I've been watching it for so long today, haven't you seen enough? ”

"I've only seen three of them today, where is enough-" Su Jingshu thought that her husband would not agree, and hurriedly said.

Li Bozhou looked at his wife and said with a smile: "If you want to hear it, please go to the house, even if you sing for three days and three nights, it won't be in the way." ”

Su Jingshu smiled.

Xu Qinghe listened on the sidelines and smiled: "Brother-in-law is so arrogant-"

"Each otherβ€”each other1 Li Bozhou said modestly.

Su Jingshu glanced at the singer in front of her and asked her cousin, "Can that Sun Langjun be on stage tonight?" ”

Xu Qinghe shook his head when he heard this, and replied in a low voice: "The two plays at night are not sung by him. ”

Su Jingshu was slightly disappointed.

Seeing this, Xu Qinghe whispered in his ear: "When Jichunban goes to the Li Mansion, my cousin will order a few more plays sung by Sun Langjun, can't I watch it a few more times?" ”

Good idea1 Su Jingshu smiled.

Li Bozhou looked over when he heard the sound and asked, "What good idea did Jing Shu just say?" ”

Su Jingshu naturally didn't dare to tell the truth, and hurriedly covered up: "My cousin said that there is a way for the troupe to collect less silver. ”

"Huh?" Xu Qinghe was stunned, his cousin was so skilled in lying......

Li Bozhou coughed lightly. Even if it is just a few words, it can be deduced what the two are gossiping. He leaned over and whispered to his wife, "Isn't Jing Shumo already confused by that servant? ”

Su Jingshu hurriedly shook her head and explained to him in a low voice: "Husband, I just think he is good-looking......

"Is that for the husband to be good-looking, or is that good-looking person?" Li Bozhou snorted and continued to ask.

Su Jingshu looked at the elegant husband very entangledly.

It must be that the servant is good-looking, but the husband's appearance is completely different, and he is handsome and chic.

"Huh? β€”β€”" Li Bozhou was stunned when he saw his wife, and he was silent for a long time. I couldn't help but snort heavily.

Su Jingshu hurriedly smiled and reassured: "How can that servant be compared to her husband!" Even if he looks good and is born, he is just a servant who lives in an uncertain place. ”

When Xu Qinghe heard this, he was slightly stunned.

Li Bozhou whispered to his wife: "Jingshu, as a husband, I didn't expect that you would take a fancy to these. ”

Su Jingshu saw that the smile between her husband's eyebrows and eyes disappeared, her heart suddenly panicked, and she hurriedly leaned closer and whispered, "Husband, did I say the wrong thing?" I just want to say that no matter how good the play is, it won't help......"

Li Bozhou smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "Jingshu didn't say the wrong thing, it's just that servants are also people, and singing opera and singing songs is just a means of survival, just like me and my cousin do business and earn some money to support our family." The only difference is how much you earn. ”

Su Jingshu looked at her husband thoughtfully.

"The Buddha said that all beings are equal. Jingshu should no longer be prejudiced against the servants in the future. Li Bozhou said softly to his wife.

Su Jingshu nodded confusedly, and whispered back, "I know, husband." ”

Li Bozhou held his wife's delicate soft twing, and said softly: "Concentrate on watching the play with my father." Don't murmur to your cousin anymore. ”

Su Jingshu meekly responded with a "yes".

Xu Qinghe didn't know what the two of them were saying, he didn't bother to look at his tender and sweet appearance, and he didn't want to sit here and listen to the play. stood up and whispered in Mrs. Xu's ear, "Mother, I'll go out for a while." ”

Mrs. Xu nodded in response: "Come back early, this play is very exciting." ”

Xu Qinghe replied with a good face, and said in his heart: No matter how wonderful it is, I can't stand it.

Then he left everyone behind and walked out of the main hall lightly.
