readx;? Miss Mei's troupe is very famous here, and if anyone can invite a few people in the troupe to support the scene during the New Year's holidays, it will already be a great thing. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Now, this old man Li's family has a birthday banquet, and he actually invited the entire troupe, not only ordering the good performances of famous actors, but also the sound of Guibai's piano, which simply made the guests who came to celebrate their birthdays look straight in the eyes.
However, this Master Li is scenery has thickened his face, but the flower moon is full but unlucky to thin the soles of his shoes.
I saw that at the same time as all the guests were seated, Hua Yueman shuttled backstage with a tangram flying, either pouring tea to moisten his throat or delivering costumes to that, sweat beads fell to the ground and fell into eight petals, and he had to gasp four times in one breath.
Of course, only she and Qiqiao are so busy at the moment, and the others who are also doing chores and helping are farting and snorting in the idle pit on the side.
This troupe is good anywhere, but the problem of bullying is more disgusting, although she has been here with Qiqiao for a while, but those who are older in the troupe always rely on the old and sell the old to take her as a beast.
"Xiao Manzi, you go and help Ran Ran tie the strap of the costume. ”
"Xiao Manzi, the tea over there is gone. ”
"Xiao Manzi, hurry up and take a look, see how Meng Xun is preparing, and she will come to the stage soon. ”
The shouts around rang out one after another, Hua Yueman was so anxious that she spun in place, she felt inappropriate to run in either direction, her arms suddenly tightened, a wisp of bamboo incense brushed her cheeks, Gui Bai held the piano in one hand, and held her arm with the other.
Hua Yueman subconsciously raised his head, only to see that Gui Bai was wearing a pale green robe, his face was like a peach apricot, rich and elegant, although his body was still so thin, but the long hair hanging down his waist added a touch of agility to him.
Such a handsome young man, Qingxiu is very delicate, that is, the words he utters are more harsh: "What are you wandering around like a headless fly? If you break something, you will be dismantled and sold as pork, and you will not be able to afford to pay for it." ”
Sure enough, opening your mouth destroys the three views......
Hua Yueman was choked and slapped her chest: "Young Master Guibai, you understand, aren't I also busy......" quietly pretended to force her to think too, but the conditions did not allow it.
Gui Bai lowered his eyes slightly, looked at her sweaty appearance, and then raised his eyes to look at the idle and panicked miscellaneous people around her, and her sparse eyebrows furrowed.
The miscellaneous people around him, who were originally idle, couldn't help but stand up under his glance, and smiled uncomfortably: "Young Master Guibai......"
Gui Bai directly withdrew his gaze from those people, and clenched his hand on Hua Yueman's arm: "My strings still need to be tuned, you can help me." I couldn't help but say that I pulled her and left.
Seeing this, the other miscellaneous people could only sigh as unlucky and got busy.
Gui Bai pulled Hua Yueman to a relatively quiet place, then let go of her hand and sat down on the ground to adjust the strings. But when his hands are busy, his mouth is not idle.
"Are you a pig? How can you be so stupid? You know that those people don't count you, but you still help people work. ”
"You really were born of a pig, where are people so stupid?"
"A girl's family is so stupid, in fact, you don't have to worry about getting married or not in the future, because you definitely can't get married. ”
Countless choking words crackled out from his pale pink lips like broken beans, and Hua Yueman's temples jumped straight to the sidelines: "Young Master Guibai, do you know what thankless work is?"
She couldn't figure out what this Gui Bai Young Master was pretentious all day long, if it weren't for the fact that he had just helped her out of the siege, she really wanted to break off his stinging fangs.
Gui Bai didn't seem to expect her to fight back, and after a moment's shock, his fingers loosened, and the sharp strings pulled out a bloody mark on his fingertips.
Seeing this, Hua Yueman sighed faintly, and while sitting beside her, she lowered her eyes and looked at the clothes on her body: "It's obviously kind, but you have to pretend that someone owes you three hundred taels, and you do good deeds and let people scold you behind your back, do you think that being scolded is more comfortable for you than being thanked?"
She tore off a piece of clothing from her inner skirt and carefully wrapped it around his injured fingertips: "You have to go on stage in a while, just press it like this first, and I'll bandage you when I go back to the yard in the evening." ”
"Little, miss...... So you're here. Qiqiao ran over with a grunt, "Miss Snowbridge is looking for you." ”
For Xueqiao's orders, Hua Yueman would never delay, patted his clothes and stood up, and hurriedly ran away with Qiqiao.
If you want to make a difference in this troupe, you have to find a reliable tree to support behind you, and Snow Bridge is one of the best in terms of status and ability in this troupe.
Gui Bai looked at his fingers wrapped in cloth in a daze, as if time had stopped at this moment, no matter how noisy and noisy the surroundings were, his ears were quiet as if he could hear his heartbeat.
Suddenly, his originally sluggish expression slowly faded, and he raised his eyes to look in the direction where Hua Yueman disappeared, a little light seemed to be flickering in his dark eyes, and he always liked to raise a bright smile on the corners of his lips, which was deeply moving.
Because Xueqiao can now be regarded as the leading actress in the troupe, Miss Mei asked for a room with the official family of the Li Mansion in advance, and specially left Xueqiao to change clothes and makeup.
Hua Yueman ran out of the backyard with Qiqiao, and ran all the way to the house where the snow bridge was changing, but when she passed by the gate of the Li Mansion, she couldn't help but stop.
There is a carriage parked opposite the entrance of the house, and the surrounding walls are made of very elegant fabric, which at first glance looks very common, but if you look closely, you can see the hidden dark embroidery lines, although the roof of the carriage is also very low-key color and decoration, but the night pearl inlaid in the center of the roof is extremely valuable.
Such a low-key and introverted is really familiar......
Hua Yueman looked at the carriage a little stunned, and suddenly remembered the person who always saw her calculating in the palm of her hand and smiled at her.
Although that person behaves perversely, he is very restrained, and although his methods are vicious, he always gives people the illusion of laziness and harmlessness.
"Niangniang...... Qiqiao didn't know what Hua Yueman was thinking, and couldn't help but urge in a low voice, "If we don't go again, the Snow Bridge girl should be in a hurry." ”
Although in front of outsiders, she called Hua Yueman is young lady, but when no one is there or in her heart, Hua Yueman is always the princess of Qitian, the mother of her family.
Hua Yueman came back to her senses, and while laughing at how she could think of that yin man in a good manner, she pulled Qiqiao and continued to run towards the snow bridge's house.
It's really that she eats too much sugar and thinks about drinking some medicine, how cheap she has to be, so that she will think of the person she shouldn't think of the most.
With Hua Yueman's departure, the group walked out of the Xiahou Mansion opposite the Li Mansion.
And look at the people who followed behind were all lowering their eyebrows and low eyes, listening to what the two people in front of them were chatting about very humbly, although they couldn't interject anything, but all of them had the same flattering and respectful smiles on their faces with different facial features.
Walking in the front and left is the head of Xiahou Mansion, that is, Xiahou Chun, the prime minister of the current Moth Country, although he is over fifty years old, he is as tough as a prime of life.
At this time, standing side by side with Xiahou Chun, walking out of the door together was a young man, tall and elegant, with his long legs stepping out of the threshold of Xiahou Mansion, the afterglow of the setting sun directly illuminated the delicate facial features on his cheeks.
Beautiful and fair-skinned, with eyes like stars, such a demeanor, who else could it be if it wasn't Liu Mo?
"I don't know what the prince of Qitian has planned for the next few days?"
For Liu Mo, Xiahou Chun was cautious and very cautious in complimenting, after all, it was the distinguished guest designated by Emperor Moth who was temporarily living in his mansion, he was just coaxing, and he also wanted to serve this prince who prayed for heaven.
Liu Mo smiled faintly: "Except for entering the palace to participate in the banquet of Emperor Moth in a few days, I don't have any arrangements, I just have something to ask for Prime Minister Xiahou." ”
As he spoke, he looked towards the lively Li Mansion opposite, and when he heard the noise and laughter coming from within the high wall, his long eyelashes suddenly trembled slightly, his dark eyes seemed to be in a trance, and his lips as light as water rose slowly, outlining a smile that seemed to be helpless and expectant.
When Xiahou Chun heard that the dignified Prince of Qitian actually had something to ask for him, he didn't dare to slack off, so he quickly lowered his eyes and asked: "I don't know what can make the old man serve the Prince of Qitian." ”
However, Liu Mo didn't seem to hear his words, and still looked at the Li Mansion, which was constantly making lively noises.
Xiahou Chun waited for a long time, but did not hear Liu Mo's response, and at the same time was surprised, he quietly raised his head, and when he saw Liu Mo's somewhat trance-like look, although he felt that he should not be disturbed, his old waist was sore and uncomfortable.
"The prince of Qitian also likes to listen to operas?" half of what he asked was to give himself a step, so that he could straighten his waist naturally.
Liu Mo came back to his senses, and his fair cheeks were a little spoiled and shy: "Just thinking of someone, she should probably like this excitement." ”
In his eyes, there is a person who never knows what is stop and what is quiet, even if he once locked her up, she can still have a good time in her bedroom.
Liu Mo's kung fu of speaking, the person had already gotten into the carriage, it seemed to be an ordinary emotion, but it made Xiahou Chun remember it in his heart, no, while Liu Mo was leaning on the soft couch and closing his eyes to take a nap, he told the coachman to go to the best restaurant in Moth, and whispered to a young man behind him.
"Ming'er, you go to Miss Mei to inform you, and then I will take a distinguished guest to the theater to listen to the play, and let her bring me the housekeeping skills of the theater troupe, as long as the guest is satisfied, the silver will not be bad for her." ”
"Yes, Prime Minister. ”
