Chapter 274: I've Seen Madame

Cheng Xiaofeng listened to the clear sound of the piano. After a few steps, he ran to the end of the alley and looked up at the signboard engraved with the words 'Nianping Tea House' on the door, pointed to a piece of green on the wall, and turned back excitedly to a few people:

"It must be here, you see, the fragrance of tea, the green tree, and the sound of the piano, all together!"

Whether they have the heart to compete for woodcarvings or not, it is still very rewarding to wander around the East Metropolis for nearly an hour and solve the puzzles on the post.

Although Yi Yu was not as excited as Cheng Xiaofeng, he was also happy, and together with Lu Zhi Duhe, he walked to the door of this tea house that was strangely built in the alley and was still covered in broad daylight, and after looking around, his smile suddenly closed, and he frowned:

"No, there is still a word of confusion in the dark of this drinker."

At the end of this alley is a blocked intersection, a tea house on one side, and the opposite side of the tea house seems to be the back door of a house, and there are no drinkers at all, and there is no smell of alcohol.

"Huh?" Cheng Xiaofeng screamed bitterly, but Du He, who was walking at the back, suddenly whispered:

"Look."

The three turned back. I saw a middle-aged man walking slowly in the distance, and when he approached, he first glanced at them defensively, and after making sure that they were not acquaintances, he smiled at them, walked to the backyard door opposite the tea house, leaned on the door and looked at the crack in the door for a while, wrapped the things in his arms tightly, tiptoed the door and flashed in, and before the door closed in front of the four people, they all clearly heard the sound of "clucking" and burping.

After looking at each other, Cheng Xiaofeng slowly stretched out his hand and pointed to the door, and said dryly: "Wine, wine and wine guests are in the dark." ”

After saying that, the four of them couldn't help but laugh out loud. The man was obviously holding a wine gourd in his arms, maybe there was a woman in the family who was not allowed to buy wine, so he had to sneak through the back door, Dongfang You brought this up, I am afraid that it was to deliberately confuse their judgment, but it happened to let them meet, if someone went to find someone according to the sentence "the dark place of the drinker", it would be miserable.

Lu Zhi stepped forward in two steps, knocked on the half-hidden door for a while, and as the footsteps approached, the door was pulled open from the inside, and a beautiful maid stood inside the door, and when she saw the four people standing outside the door, she wondered:

"Is there something wrong?"

A few people were stunned, there are still customers who open a store and ask them to the door?

Or Lu Zhi reacted quickly. After bowing, Wen Sheng asked: "I waited for the passing, heard the sound of the piano, and smelled the fragrance of tea, and found here, where there is a signboard of the tea house, don't you treat guests?" ”

They were all wearing the usual clothes of the national eunuch, but the maid still asked, obviously no one had found this place before them, and the lady must be a frequent visitor here, if she rashly explained her intentions in the future, she might not be able to see it, so she should go in first and talk about it.

Lu Zhi's appearance is superior, and he is gentle and polite when he speaks, and he is very lethal to the girl's family, this maid was stared at by him seriously, and after the words fell, her face turned a little red, and her tone was softer:

"This son doesn't know, our Nianping Tea House. It was only opened in the afternoon to entertain guests. ”

Cheng Xiaofeng's eyes swept over the beautiful girl's face, snorted, and said, "Welcome guests in the afternoon?" What's going on with the one who plays the piano there? ”

The maid looked at her, and her tone was not at all as soft as when she spoke to Lu Zhi just now, "The one who plays the piano is not a guest, if you want to have tea, come back when you are ready." ”

After speaking, the door was about to close, Yi Yu hurriedly grabbed Cheng Xiaofeng, who was about to get angry, and looked at Lu Zhi who stretched out his hand in front of the door, "Girl, wait, we have been shopping in Dongshi all morning, and we are really thirsty, can we go in and have a pot of tea?" ”

Because he pressed the door, the maid could not force it to close, so she looked embarrassed.

Seeing her expression, Yi Yu knew that there was a door, her face was slightly bent, and she said softly: "This sister, my legs are sore, you just let us go in and rest, okay?" ”

She is already petite, although she is used to being old on weekdays, but she is really coquettish, and she has a cuteness, and when the maid saw the prayer on her little face, she softened her heart, and after hesitating, she opened the door and said:

"Then come in, and take your hands and feet lightly. When our wife plays the piano, she is the most taboo to disturb. ”

After Yi Yu thanked him, he pulled Cheng Xiaofeng, who was a little reluctant, and walked in behind Lu Zhi, unlike the normal tea house, this tea house entered the door is actually a courtyard, and a small building was seen in the east, the four of them just stepped into the door, and they didn't take a few steps, and they heard a faint voice from the alley outside the door:

"Huh? As for the people, they are not seen outside this alley. ”

"Hurry up and find it, since we met on this street, we will definitely find a place by following them."

"Shhhhhh There is a piano sound. ”

"Look, Emerald Tree!"

The maid, who was still leading the four of them forward, stopped her steps, turned her head and glanced at the embarrassed Yu and Du He, and then there was a knock on the door.

Such a beautiful maid turned around, missed the four of them walking to the door, opened the door that had just been closed, and saw two young men standing outside the door, dressed in the usual clothes of the academy. Open your mouth and say:

"What knock, this store is not open to customers now, if you want to drink tea, come back another day."

This time it was not as polite as Lu Zhi and them just now, the two students of the Arithmetic Academy who were lucky to follow the four of them on the street, although they were angry, they still did not forget that this was a competition of etiquette and art, and maintained their demeanor:

"How can there be a reason to open a store and not entertain customers during the day, we have to go in to find someone, you let me."

The maid didn't bother to pay attention to them, and reached out to close the door. The two people on the opposite side hurriedly stretched out to block it, but as soon as they poked into the door, they heard the sound of two "pop" beaters, accompanied by a wail, and the two claws were knocked off vigorously and accurately.

The maid easily closed the door and bolted it, turned to look at the four people with stiff faces, patted the dirt that did not exist on her hands, and grinned at the corners of her mouth:

"You're here for someone, too?"

Her actions were clearly seen by the four of them, and they all knew that this maid-like girl was still a practitioner, and Yu Yu couldn't help but hide behind Lu Zhi, for fear that if she didn't answer well, she would end up with the two people outside the door.

Lu Zhi did not have the slightest consciousness of being exposed to the lie, first apologized, and then told the true purpose, after the maid listened, she was silent for a moment, and said:

"The Mr. Dongfang you are talking about, but an old man in his sixties, not tall, with some gray eyebrows?"

Seeing the four of them nodding, she seemed to think of something, and after a strange expression, she said, "Count you lucky, our tea house has rules, if you come in, don't drink a pot, there is no gift for sending guests, come with me." ”

Yi Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and pulled Cheng Xiaofeng to follow the maid towards the only attic in this strange tea house.

***

The four of them were settled on the elegant first floor, and the maid said to Lu Zhi:

"I'll help you get the word out, and as for whether our lady wants to see you, it's a matter of maybe."

Lu Zhi saluted her and said softly: "Thank you, girl, it's rare to be able to listen to Madame's song closely, if you can't see it." I won't force it. ”

There are definitely not many people who can be found in this place, according to Dongfang You's requirements, the winner needs to ask the lady in the building for a plum-shaped silver hairpin, if she only has one hairpin like that, there is only one person who can get the hairpin, then they can sit in this tea house now, as long as they go back on time, they can guarantee not to be the bottom.

After the maid went up to the second floor alone, Cheng Xiaofeng glanced at Lu Zhi, "Everyone is gone, what are you laughing at." ”

Lu Zhi's smile did not fade at all, "This is a competition of etiquette and art, a smile can always win the favor of the other party, you don't have a stinky face, be careful that people will kick you out later." ”

The four of them were able to come in, as the maid said, it was indeed luck, if they were like the two students of the academy who came with them, they would definitely be stopped at the door.

Seeing that Cheng Xiaofeng was going to quarrel with Lu Zhi, Yi Yu interrupted: "This lady is really mysterious, this tea house is strange, the girl just now looks like she is skilled, you see that the furnishings in this house are good, and I don't know what kind of character she is." ”

The four of them quieted down, listening to the mournful sound of the piano in the middle of the building, and secretly guessed the origin of this mysterious lady.

After a while, the maid came down from the upper floor, and said to them with a suspicious face, "Madame, please go upstairs." ”

The four people who didn't think they could see it, under Lu Zhi's eyes, got up and followed her upstairs, stepping on the rattling stairs of the new building, next to Lu Zhi's Yu Yu, heard the maid muttering:

"It's strange that Madame has never seen visitors... When I heard that they were students of the country, I changed my mind..."

***

After going up to the second floor, Lu Zhi saw at a glance that in the spacious hall, there was a cyan gauze curtain in the east direction, and the sound of the piano that had just stopped came from behind the curtain, and the two windows facing the alley on the side of the hall were wide open, and there were stoves in the four corners of the room, so he didn't feel the cold.

"Madam, these are the four who want to see you."

The jade who originally hung her head, after the maid introduced their identities, made a formal salute to see the elders, and then looked up at the curtain with a curious face, blurred, a faintly sitting blue figure.

"Yucomb, you go to the door to greet you, and if the children of Guozixue come to the door, let them come in and have a cup of tea downstairs, I will see them one by one."

The voice behind the curtain came a little erratically, and the four of them were stunned, not because the sound was unpleasant, but on the contrary, the lady's voice was extremely good, and it seemed to be mixed with the rhythm of the piano sound, as if a warm breeze was blowing through their hearts.

The maid who called the jade comb glanced at the four of them with some warning, and then went downstairs, Lu Zhi stepped forward and said to the person behind the curtain:

"I've seen Mrs., the student's surname is Lu, and his single name is a smart character, dare to ask you what to call him."

The figure behind the curtain moved slightly, and after a while, the beautiful voice just now, with inaudible fluctuations, sounded again:

"You, you can call me Mrs. Yang."
