Chapter 9 Inside the Yihong Courtyard
Yihong Courtyard is located in the most prosperous and lively area of Yanbo Hongchen Street.
When the lights are shining, the whole Yihong Courtyard is gilded bricks and tiles, vermilion lacquer and jade ornaments, and the appearance is very magnificent.
A few men led me into a secluded alley, and the moment the back door openedβ
The splendid bead curtain was lifted, the glittering crystal lantern hung under the beams of the hall, and the girl wrapped in tulle was overflowing with fragrant sweat, singing and dancing.
Some well-dressed men sat at the bottom of the hall with wine glasses, staring at the girls on the stage with shining eyes.
The leader of the biao man walked into the inner hall and whispered with a plump figure, slightly older, but still charming, bowing his head and talking.
The woman stepped in front of me, reached out and picked up my chin, and after examining it, she chuckled and said, "Tsk, it's the first time I've seen such a rare beauty." It's really a hibiscus jade face, looking forward to it. β
She was so close to me that I looked down and saw her loose collar looming with white flowers looming over her breasts.
I blushed and stepped back in embarrassment, my eyes really not knowing where to look.
"What's your name?" Chun Sanniang picked her thin lips.
"I, I......" I hesitated, not wanting to say my real name in this strange place.
Chun Sanniang was not surprised and said: "Since you are here, stay with peace of mind." If you don't want to mention your past name, I'll pick you a new one, called Lan Yue. Don't worry, follow me Chun Sanniang, and I won't treat you badly in the future. β
I thought in my heart that I was here to pay back the money for Ah Zhen, but, "I can't do anything else except fishing." β
Chun Sanniang comforted her eyebrows, covered her mouth and smiled: "It won't be right." I, Chun Sanniang, will personally train you, and I will make you Lan Yuefang famous all over the world. β
I wondered, "What are you going to teach me?"
"The ability to sing, dance, piano and chess, and the joy of fish and water. Chun Sanniang deliberately lengthened the tone.
"What's the joy of fish and water?" I asked, curious.
Chun Sanniang laughed loudly: "The joy of fish and water will be talked about in the future, you first learn to sing, dance, piano and chess." My girl here, the reward has always been twenty-eight cents. If you are sincere in staying, don't mess with me in the future, and you can mention the silver reward. β
I was still wondering if the joy of a group of fish swimming in the river was trying to teach me to swim?
Seeing that I didn't talk, Chun Sanniang added: "How much do you want, you can mention it, and we will negotiate slowly." β
I came back to my senses and said with a serious face: "You give me a penny of cash every day, and you can take all the other rewards." When the money Ah Zhen owes you is paid off, I will leave here. β
"That's it!"
Chun Sanniang's eyebrows fluttered happily and said, "Come on, clean up the mansion on the third floor for Miss Lanyue." β
Four men bent down and greeted me up to the third floor.
Around the corner of the second floor, I suddenly heard a sound of ecstasy, and I couldn't help but get goosebumps all over my body.
Out of the corner of my eye, I stole a glance into the room, the candlelight swayed slightly, and the silhouette reflected in the window, as if two male and female figures, obsessively intertwined, like clouds and rain.
Thinking of Sister Green Snake and Zhang Tianshu, such a lover scene, it's not the first time I've seen it, but my face still can't stop flushing and hot......
I quickened my pace and came to the third floor, where I saw a room with open doors and windows, and Lan Yue's name tag was hung.
I think it was the house that Chun Sanniang arranged for me.
I walked in lightly and smelled a smell of rouge powder exclusive to my daughter's house, the pear wood dressing table copper mirror was clean, and the lamp swayed soft red yarn, which was elegant and spacious.
The bright moon does not know the sorrow, and the oblique light penetrates the Zhu household.
After a busy day, I leaned back tiredly and collapsed on the soft couch to rest.
But at this time, the incident of meeting Ah Zhen silently floated in my mind.
I patted my head and sat up, and remembered that the old grandmother gave me money, and I was going to the Yuelao Temple to find a warlock for divination.
I almost forgot about it!
I hurriedly got up, deftly rolled over and slipped out the window, stepped on the glazed eaves, and jumped lightly across the street.
Winter twilight is deep, the sky is getting dark, and the cold wind is blowing and the skin hurts.
A thousand houses lit up the night road, and I hurried away, but at the corner near the Yuelao Temple, I unexpectedly collided with a black shadow.
I fell to the ground.
A hand reached out to me.
Accompanied by that hand, a deep and balanced voice sounded: "Autumn goes to winter, I thought you finally gave up and won't come again." β
In the cold winter, I looked up and saw in the moonlight, the warlock of the fairy wind bones stood in front of me with his divination banner on his back, his beard fluttering, and his eyes were as deep as a bottomless lake.
Come to think of it, he had just closed the stall.
I grabbed the hand, got up, and talked to him, "It's winter, and the fish are not easy to catch, so I didn't get any money." However, I went to a place where people were willing to give me money every day. So, I don't have to worry about running out of money in the future. Give me the holder. β
The warlock stroked his beard and frowned, "Someone is willing to give you money?"
"That's right. Today's article will be given to you first, and the signature holder will be given to me. β
I went straight to the point, spread out my palm to reach the stick, hugged it tightly, and shook it sincerely for a long time-
Under the sign (robbery).
The result was still unsatisfactory, but it seemed to be expected.
I let out a long breath and turned around in disappointment.
"Girl. β
The warlock called me from behind.
I stopped in my lonely stride, looked hollow, and looked back and asked, "What?"
The warlock looked stunned, shook his head, and said, "It's okay." I don't want to wait that long for a penny. And the cold winter nights are cold, and it is inconvenient for you to go out. So, remember to come early tomorrow. β
He stopped me, and that's what he did.
"Good. β
I nodded weakly and turned to walk into the depths of twilight.
