Shaohua can be regarded as a famous play, and all the ladies and ladies who were invited to visit the Lantern Festival in the Marquis of Zhongyi's Mansion praised the superb piano skills of the two when they mentioned the Lantern Festival. In response to that sentence, this song is only because it is in the sky, and it is rare to hear it in the world. The reputation spread, and many people came to the door to ask where Shaohua's pipa master came from, as far as they knew, there were very few people in the capital who could play the pipa, and Mrs. Xingyong was the only one who could be called the best. Now that there is more Shaohua, a rising star, suddenly, it is not difficult for everyone to understand why Xingyong Bofu would give the Li family a New Year's gift.

Song Yun's piano skills should not be underestimated, and the song "Autumn Moon in the Han Palace" came out of her hand, which was not as blunt and urgent as Jinhua, as if whispering the sorrow of the Han palace maid, which made the sitter emotional. One is preconceived, the other is amazing, playing the same song, and because of the different instruments, it is extremely difficult to distinguish the superior. Song Yun angrily played the song "Yangchun White Snow" to the fullest, satirizing Shaohua as just a "lower riba person".

The sound of the piano here is curling, elegant and pleasant, and even the Huaxiu Gang in the courtyard next door can't help but calm down and dare not disturb. Wanhua was both amazed and secretly annoyed, looking at Shaohua with some concern, only to see her smile.

met Song Yun's provocation, but jumped out of her shackles, and chose a very appropriate song "Moon High", from the moon on the sea to the sky, from the sea bridge to the galaxy. The whole song is simple and moving, gorgeous and lingering, euphemistic and warm, as if you can see the Yuyu Qionglou in the laurel hall of the Moon Palace.

All the ladies and ladies present, although they dare not say that they are superb, but they have all learned a hand of the zither since they were young, and they have been cultivated for many years. But in front of the sound of the piano of these two people, no one dared to stand up and perform, and they secretly decided to go back to practice their piano skills.

Obviously, Song Yun didn't expect Shaohua's pipa to practice so well, looking at the capital, the slightly outstanding ladies couldn't wait to show off everywhere. Even if they are low-key, they will never be as unheard of as Shaohua. Song Yun thought to herself, Shaohua is just a lady raised in the countryside, no matter how she stands out, she will never go beyond Wanhua, and she has won the praise of the saint, so she will inevitably look down on the other party.

In the end, Mrs. Zhongyi Hou was afraid that the scene would be deadlocked, so she came out to play a round and beckoned everyone to listen to Huaxiu Gang singing.

After Ling learned about it, he regretted that he didn't come to cheer for his daughter in person, and Shaohua secretly slandered her that she just wanted to hear other people's praise. However, a few days later, when Xingyong Bofu ordered someone to send this red sandalwood pipa, Ling was even more surprised.

"Second lady, please be sure to accept it, my wife said that a good piano must also be understood by someone with a heart. This pipa was originally made by my uncle for my wife, but after my uncle passed by, my wife didn't have the heart to play the piano, so I didn't know that the strings were broken. My young master originally asked Song Sanlang to ask the master to repair the piano, and wanted to make my wife happy, but I didn't expect to meet the fifth lady. My wife said that this must be the meaning of the uncle, so please don't dislike the five ladies. ”

The touching words made Ling happy and embarrassed.

"How embarrassing is this, this is a gift from my uncle to my wife, no, no, it's too precious, Wu Niang can't afford it." Touching the pipa, Ling's heart was shocked, this texture, this feel, is by no means an ordinary material. And it is also a token given to his wife by Uncle Xingyong, which is not light.

Shaohua hid behind the screen, poked his head secretly, blinked his eyes, and looked directly at the fine and shiny pipa, eager to rush out. Although the texture and timbre that Mama Rong gave her are also good, the back plate is composed of three plates, and the gold is naturally not as good as the whole board. But as soon as he poked his body out, he was pulled back by Wanhua, looking at Wanhua with a fierce face, so he had to sit down behind the screen obediently.

The steward glanced at the screen, very eye-catching, put the pipa on the table, and got up with a smile to give Ling a look. "This is not precious, the fifth lady is willing to give the hand-copied "Dizang Sutra" to my wife, this gift is expensive."

"Lady Suan's "Jizo Sutra"?" Ling Shi was stunned, although she was not used to things in the study, she had never heard Shaohua talk about it. "I don't have this thing at home, is Madame mistaken?"

The figure behind the screen moved, Shaohua covered his mouth, couldn't help but exclaim, glared at Wanhua resentfully, and asked with his mouth: What are you doing?

Wanhua also looked at her angrily, such a big thing was hidden from her: You know it in your heart!

Shaohua pretended not to see it and turned his gaze away. In the outer hall, the steward was a little embarrassed, "Could it be that I made a mistake?" But my wife said that it was Mrs. Xuan's cloud scroll, because Mrs. was very fond of it, so the young master searched for a long time and didn't find it. Thanks to the five ladies to cut their love, is it hand-copied? The steward saw that Ling's face was a little suddenly realized, and it was inconvenient to say more, "In short, I will stay on the pipa, and my young master will come to the door to thank you in person another day." ”

The Ling clan was confused by the steward of Xingyongbo's Mansion, and after he left, he hurriedly called Shaohua out to ask for clarification. "Why are you so confused and give away the scriptures casually?! The real handiwork of Mrs. Suanjun is hard to buy! ”

"Auntie, don't be nervous, I see that eighty percent of it was copied by her." Wanhua said disapprerovingly: "If it is genuine, grandfather would not dare to put it in the study and let her fiddle with it." ”

Shaohua lowered his head and pretended to be stupid, only caring about playing the pipa, and his heart was as happy as if he had eaten honey, and he didn't care about Wanhua's teasing at all.

Although he couldn't reply in person, Mrs. Xingyongbo's return gift was indeed sent to her heart, which made up for her previous regrets. Presumably he also knew her intentions, but it was really not easy to get a definite reply from him. Stroking each string, thinking that he had also hugged this pipa, Shaohua was so happy that his mouth was about to crack to the root of his ear.

"The second master is back." Before the announcement fell, Li Xunzhuo walked in with a black face, breaking the happy atmosphere in the house.

Ling Shi motioned to Hanxiang to quickly pour a cup of hot tea, and handed the stove in his hand to Li Xunzhuo, but he pushed it away impatiently, almost knocking Ling down as well. Fortunately, Shaohua reacted quickly and went up to help Ling's family, only to hear Ling's angry complaint: "What's the matter, what kind of temper did you come back from!" ”

"Daddy, drink tea." Wanhua took the tea brought by the incense and carefully sent it over.

Li Xunzhuo let out a heavy sigh, "Suifeng Tower let people check it, and the things inside are all broken." ”

"Huh?! This, what the hell is going on, how can this be, who is so bold! Ling Shi was startled at first, then came back to his senses and shouted angrily. Li Xunzhuo snorted impatiently, "Our family has a good imperial history, who else can there be?" ”

"Jiro asked you to do it?" Ling was stunned.

"Impossible! The second brother is not such a person. Shaohua didn't want to defend Li Sinian immediately.

Wanhua glanced at her, smacked her lips, and said in a somewhat dissatisfied tone: "It must be a new official who has taken office, I want to make some appearance for the above." Hmph, I don't know where this virtue comes from. ”

"No, I have to go to Taoyuan to ask the third brother and sister for an explanation." Ling couldn't think about it, and immediately got up.

"I'll go too." Wanhua said busily.

"Stop!" Li Xunzhuo roared angrily, and the two women, one big and one small, immediately stood still, and invariably looked back to see Li Xunzhuo with an angry face. "Who told you that this was done by Erlang."

Shaohua nodded like a dog, "I said that the second brother wouldn't do this kind of thing!" "Although I cheated her twice, she is not bad.

"But ......," Wanhua hesitated.

Li Xunzhuo was obviously dissatisfied with the hostility of his wife and daughter towards Li Sinian, "Last year, there was a lack of harvest everywhere, and the granaries of the treasury were not stripped of the relief. Somehow, the Metropolitan Procuratorate found out that some people in the DPRK and China had colluded with businessmen to resell grain and raise grain prices. As a result, it was found that it was in Suifeng Tower, so they fought in Suifeng Tower, and now Suifeng Tower has also been sealed. ”

Shaohua nodded in understanding, but felt confused, "What does that have to do with our family?" ”

"Suifeng Tower belongs to our family." Wanhua whispered, thought about it, and added: "Grandfather, they don't know." ”

Shaohua covered his mouth tightly and opened his eyes wide in disbelief, saying this, if the imperial court knew that their family had harbored these people to do business in Suifeng Tower, I am afraid that the Li family would suffer. No wonder Li Xunzhuo looked angry, but he didn't dare to shout loudly, this is really a dumb person who eats Coptis chinensis, and he can't say anything about his suffering.

"Who are those people?" Seeing that his parents were distressed, Shaohua asked cautiously. "Our family didn't get involved, did we?"

Ling glared at her, Shaohua immediately lowered his head weakly, only to hear Li Xunzhuo sigh: "I heard that many of them are from the Second Prince's Party, and at the beginning of the year, the Holy Lord still wanted to marry the Second Prince, and now this incident will happen." ”

"What about Xingyongbo's Mansion?" Hearing Ling's question, Shaohua also became nervous.

"That's not true, Xingyong Bofu has always been relatively low-key, and everything is so frugal that it makes people sigh." Li Xunzhuo's words made Shaohua breathe a sigh of relief, "However, listening to Lao Guo, there are still people who take advantage of the chaos to steal a lot of silver from the account room." ”

"Who is so hateful!" Wanhua was so angry that he slapped the table, Suifeng Lou was seized and it was enough to make people angry, and there were still people who did such a thing of stealing chickens and dogs, which was extremely despicable and vicious. "Too, too damn it!"

Wanhua thought for a long time, couldn't hold back a word, and looked at Li Xunzhuo helplessly pursed her lips and shook her head, she had to shut up angrily.

"Then we don't have any other stores?" Shaohua knew that the Li family had many shops in Beijing, but he didn't know how many private ones there were in his own house.

"Yes, but the total sum is not as good as a Suifeng Tower." Li Xunzhuo said, "I also plan to go out of the Suifeng Tower, looking for an opportunity to let Cui Hanlin go to Liangcheng, and now the money will be suppressed." ”

Li Xunzhuo was excited, and suddenly coughed violently, Ling Shi didn't care about being angry, and hurriedly patted him on the back to comfort him, "It's okay, I hope it will be involved." ”

"Yes, I have to inquire, don't find out the details, and fold our family in." Li Xunzhuo seemed to remember something, got up and left.
