Chapter 23: Yun Liang
"Senior sister, I ......" Lu Li stood in the corner of the street, looking at the attic not far away. The sun has sunned down to the distant mountains, and the red tassels that are shining down fall half of the sky, and the twilight is late.
Qiong also saw that his junior brother was cowering and didn't dare to go to Yunliang Pavilion, and said, "Let's go, let's go in together." ”
"If the master and master knew that we had entered this kind of place, we would definitely break our legs when we went back!" Lu Li came here, but he began to retreat, he hugged the pillar under the eaves on the side of the road, and refused to let go: "If Master knows, if you take me and Xiao Si to go, you will definitely let you stay on the road of Baishi Cliff for a month!" ”
"Master also said that you want to be chivalrous!" Qiong Yi took Lu Li's hand: "Master also said that he practiced swords for at least one hour every day!" I don't see you obedient! ”
"Lu Li's ears are powerful, you can choose words to listen to." Yang Xiaosi inserted a knife on the side.
"Xiao Si!" Lu Li pointed to the two of them dressed as entourage, and said indignantly: "The person who walked in front was me, and I was the one who was ashamed, in case I was seen by the people in the school, my reputation was ruined, and no girl would be willing to take a fancy to me in the future, who would bear the responsibility!" ”
Yang Xiaosi, who heard this, rolled his eyes, daring to love those girlish feelings in his past, he really couldn't feel it at all! was so angry that he was about to turn his back, and he and Qiong Yi worked together to pull him off the pillar, gritting his teeth: "I'll take it!" I'll take it! That's it! ”
Seeing that her junior brother was really a nerd, Qiong Yi was amazed and coaxed: "When you return to Guangyang, I'll ask Ah Luo to make you something to eat!" ”
Under Zhu Yunluo's superb cooking skills, Lu Li secretly weighed for a long time, and finally nodded: "Okay!" ”
The three of them straightened their clothes and hair, and walked towards the gate of Yunliang Pavilion under the light that turned on one after another.
Outside the attic stood an extremely fancy old woman, wrapped in layers of colorful clothes, embroidered with gold silk shawl on her plump arm, hairpin with a silk paper red peony, the whole person looked at it from a distance, like a blessed flower peacock.
She beckoned to people passing by in the distance, the water-red shawl dangled in the air, and a sharp and long shout floated out of her mouth: "Childe, master, please inside!" ”
As he got closer, a strong and pungent scent of smoke poured in, and Smoked Diqiong also covered her mouth and nose with a fan.
"Master, come in and listen to a little song?"
The old bustard called at the passers-by who came and went, completely ignoring Lu Li who was standing in front of her. It wasn't until Lu Li called her that she set her eyes on the little boy in front of her with two maids, one on the left and one on the right.
"Little boy, you ...... Do you want to rest, or do you want to listen to music? After listening to Lu Li's answer of "all right", she wiped the non-existent sweat on her forehead with the non-existent silk in her hand, and said with a smile: "Brother, at your age, the girls in our family are all older than you......"
Lu Li heard it, the old woman in front of him was disgusted that he was still a stinky child!
"Ahem." He coughed and pretended to be calm: "That's okay. ”
"This ...... You're an old slave! ”
"There's nothing difficult to do, I, I'm ......" Lu Li's tongue was not very sharp, he wanted to say domineeringly: I can come if I want to, but the last sentence that came out was: "I have money!" ”
"This ......" The old bustard saw him take out the silver with a clatter, and his embarrassed expression immediately became flattering: "This is naturally easy to say, easy to say!" ”
After that, he called to the brightly lit hall: "Rou'er, Yao'er, come, pick up the guests." ”
The two girls, one red and one purple, came to the door with the voice, and one of them held Lu Li's hand and pulled Lu Li in: "Little boy, come here!" ”
The beauty was on the side, the fragrant breeze was blowing in her nose, but Lu Li cried out for help in her heart.
Mom, senior sister, Xiao Si, how to deal with this!
He turned his head and saw the two people behind him who were disguised and blackened, and they were still snickering with their heads down, and their already panicked hearts were even colder.
"Little boy, are you here for the first time?" Rou'er, who was dressed in red light yarn, climbed up Lu Li's arm with her fingertips dyed with flower juice, "Do you want the slave family to take you upstairs and listen to a little song?" ”
Yao'er, who was wearing a purple dance skirt, put her arm around Lu Li's arm and said with a smile: "Childe, you must have never seen Yao'er's dance, stay in the house, I will dance for Childe and take a look." ”
Lu Li got goosebumps and fell to the ground.
"I ...... I want to see you, a girl named Wei Ying. As soon as he spoke, he almost bit his tongue, "Let her come to me." ”
Hearing Lu Li say this, the two girls first glanced at each other, and then smiled again: "Oh, Sister Ying'er has only been here for a short time, clumsy, she can't serve you well, let's come." ”
Lu Li said, "I want her to come." ”
The two were dumbfounded, one of them made a look, and the other immediately went to find the old bustard who was soliciting customers at the door, and the old bustard didn't know what to instruct, so he asked the red-clothed Rou'er to take the three of them upstairs.
"Yes...... Mom asked me to come and serve the little boy's ......"
The voice was dry and a little hoarse, and after hearing the knock on the door, Rou'er finally stopped pestering Lu Li, got up and opened the door, and walked out.
Although Rou'er's voice was very low, Qiong Yi still heard the vicious words in Wei Ying's ear after she went out: "If you dare to resist and hurt the guests, don't even think about eating tomorrow's meal!" ”
"Yes......"
After finishing speaking, Wei Ying adjusted her breathing deeply, squeezed out a smile on her face, and walked towards the house.
After walking into the house, she closed the door, lowered her head and didn't dare to look at each other, but said, "Childe...... Yes, do you want to listen to the song first, or do you want me to order tea for you to drink, or do you want to ......"
There was no sound in front of him, Wei Ying raised his head suspiciously, but what he saw was Lu Li's relieved expression, he collapsed on the bed, and said, "My mother-in-law, that person is finally gone!" ”
Yang Xiaosi kicked Lu Li's foot: "Who allowed you to lie down?" Get up! ”
The scene in front of him, no matter how he looked at it, didn't look like a master and servant getting along, and the doubts in Wei Ying's heart deepened.
"You two be quiet!" Qiong also walked over to Wei Ying and said to her: "Don't make a noise, don't be afraid, I came to you specially." ”
“…… Looking for me? Her wheat-colored face was full of incredulity: "I...... I don't know you. ”
"You certainly don't know me, but you must know this." Qiong also said, and took out a somewhat old red head rope from her arms, which she specially went to Wa Village to find the little girl before she came to Yunliang Pavilion, "A few days ago, I happened to meet Wei Xinxin, who lives alone, and I also heard about your family, so I thought if I could help." ”
Wei Ying took the head rope, and her fingers couldn't help but tremble: "It's... It's Xiao Xin's head rope ......"
She clutched the headband tightly, gritted her teeth and asked, "Girl, you... Are you really here to help me? ”
Joan nodded.
“…… Why? Wei Ying took a few steps back, "You and I don't know each other, why do you want to help me?" ”
Qiong also replied to the question: "I am a disciple of the Guangyang Lu family, an ancestral ranger, and it is best to do righteous things." ”
Hearing this, Wei Ying's nose was sour, and she wanted to bend down and bow, but Yang Xiaosi hurriedly supported her, and she cried: "Thank you, little fairies, and thank you little fairies!" ”
"I arrived in this kind of place, although it was unbearable, but it was indeed the mother in this building who took me at a high price and helped me bury my father. Leaving Xiaoxin a child in the village, I, I really can't stand her......"
She asked, "How can you help me?" ”
Qiong also saw that under Wei Ying's tulle clothes, there were bruises and purple scars, very eye-catching scratches, pinching marks, and some bruises from sticks, and thought: It seems that after selling herself here, she has suffered a lot.
"I think that if this kind of thing happens to your family, at least you have to get justice."
Wei Ying originally thought that the few people in front of her could save her from here, but after hearing Qiong Yi's words, her face showed disappointment, but this disappointment was too difficult to find in front of Qiong Yi, who didn't know much about the complexity of human nature.
Qiong Yi was still thinking in her heart that it would be good if the money lost by the family who hit the person in the end was enough for Wei Ying to redeem herself.
She thought as she pulled the note from her bosom.
The next step is to make a witness and stamp your handprint.
There was already a small fingerprint on the note, and the printing ground was extremely hard, and the vermilion was heavy.
Rou'er, who was standing outside the door and eavesdropping, didn't know what a few people in the room were muttering, and at first asked Wei Ying to come to Lu Li by name, she was already a little suspicious, thinking that she was not a big name, as for letting the rich little boy call it personally!
Then I heard the voice of a strange woman in the house, and thought, "What a mouthful can I say about this servant!"
In the house, Qiong Yizheng was reading the words written on the note to Wei Ying word by word, and was about to press the handprint, when there was a loud "dong dong" knock at the door: "Sister Ying, why is there no movement in the house, what are you doing inside?" ”
This greeting just attracted the old bustard who picked up the guests upstairs, she glanced at this end, and secretly thought, Wei Ying, the new Qian Nizi, don't cause anything else!
The four people in the room were frightened at once, and they didn't know whether to speak or not. Qiong also quickly hid the note in his arms, for fear that the door would be pushed open and bumped into, but at this time, Yang Xiaosi held the wooden box with cinnabar in his hand, and he couldn't close it for a while, so he was in a hurry.
Lu Li was in a hurry and said: "No, this tune is too low, it's not good!" You change it for me! ”
Hearing this, Rou'er paused as she knocked on the door.
Wei Ying wanted to cooperate with him to act, but her voice was still in a state of fright, where could she sing.
"You're singing?" Lu Li said hurriedly, and wrote a sentence on his face: If you don't sing, they will come in!
The more anxious Wei Ying is, the more she can't sing.
Qiong also heard a strong push on the door, and at this imminent moment, she cleared her throat shallowly, imitating Wei Ying's tone, and also imitated the singing voice that came from which room when she went upstairs, and sang a voice.
Outside the house, Rou'er froze, and so did the bustard, who heard the singing.
If Qiong knew Wei Ying's singing level, she wouldn't have spoken.
The song is clear and ethereal, curling like smoke.
Standing behind the old bustard, the man she regarded as a distinguished guest stopped, "Which girl in your family sang this, why have I never heard it?" ”
"Master Su, this, this, I'm afraid this is not sung by my girl!" The old bustard pinched the silk and smiled, turned his head and immediately changed his face, glaring fiercely at Rou'er, who was still standing outside the door, "What are you still doing standing there!" It's like a stake, and the eldest prince doesn't know how to pick it up when he comes! ”
Rou'er twisted aggrievedly, and then greeted her coquettishly with small steps: "Oops! Son! Didn't people see you just now? Besides, when people see you, it's not all about you! ”
"Really?" The man grinned, grabbed Rou'er's thin waist suddenly, and walked to the room in front: "Then I have to hurt you well tonight." ”
