Chapter 31 The sound of the tide of plum steps
"Yo, guest officer, look at the face, the girls are greeting one!"
"It's a little early to come today, see that you are radiant today, you can be merciful later, don't hurt our girl too much. ”
"Bai Ye, please, Sister Apricot is waiting for you to be restless and looking forward to it, this is really capable. ”
"Haha, Xiao Chunzi just likes the master when he speaks," the reckless man laughed with a tiger's back. The Tsing Yi servant who followed on the side had already prepared, and when the master said, "Look at the reward!", he handed the Qinglou Turtle Gong who was almost the same age a silver ingot. Liu Jian winked at the green-clothed servant, who grimaced.
This Bai Ye is a well-known leather merchant in the city, and he is also a high-roller who must arrive at Fengmanlou every day, rain or shine, and never stop celebrating the New Year's holidays. Every time he came, he came to find the same girl, and it happened that Liu Jian was in charge of taking care of it. Since Liu Jian opened his mouth, this reward has never been less, making him familiar with the servants of the White Mansion.
"Thank you for the reward!" This promise was a little inward, and it suddenly spread throughout half of the front building.
Bai Ye went up to the second floor with satisfaction, and bought a noodle reward, what he wanted was the loud voice of this little turtle man. Liu Jian hurriedly followed, led the regular customer to a fragrant room, and beckoned the little maid who served the apricot girl to come over and do the work.
After doing this, the main work of the day is over, and it will only be an hour before and after.
After all, I have only been doing it for half a year, and there are only six or seven girls under my care, so there is not much work every night. But with his eloquence and cleverness, the reward he earned every night was not small, and he had saved hundreds of taels of silver in half a year.
But these are far from enough to redeem Butterfly Dance.
For the turtle prince of Fengmanlou, the girl is a resource, and there are more girls to take care of, in addition to being able to try it every day, there are more guests who need to be received, and the reward can also earn more. It's just that Duan An and Wang Hao both have gambling problems, which is not much different from Wang Liu, and they can't save cash at all.
Standing on the railing on the second floor and looking at the beautiful hall below, hugging and hugging, warblers and swallows, kissing me and me, and the voices and colors around me are also intersecting. There were anxious men everywhere, and hungry women everywhere, which made the inner breath in his body not subside for a moment.
Seeing Duan An bowing down and leading two male guests to come, one was a graceful boy in brocade, and the other was a scholar dressed in long clothes. The scholar squinted slightly, but Liu Jian couldn't help but glance at his bland appearance twice.
The scholar walked without squinting, dodging the champas thrown by the girls, and showing a little boredom. But with a gesture, it will give people a sense of scholarly righteousness.
If you read too much, you can brew a wave of bookish anger, but bookish anger is not only soft, but also angry, blood-spattered Qingtang. This scholar's momentum is dignified and powerful, if Liu Jian feels good, this person is still a good hand in martial arts.
"Brother Chun!
The boy in brocade couldn't help but be happy when he saw Liu Jian, shouted Brother Chun and suddenly remembered the scholar behind him, so he temporarily changed his mouth. Walked a few steps briskly, and walked up to Liu Jian.
Liu Jian smiled politely at Duan An, then lowered his head and stood aside, he was so helpless that he had nothing to say to this guy who often humiliated himself.
Others see him as having some talent and being able to recite poetry, which is to have fun with Yaxing. This Zhu Gongzi is happy with his poems, and he is still happy to fight after repeated defeats.
"Haha, I have come up with a good poem today, and I have invited my master over, but I can't escape you. ”
Liu Jian responded with a smile, but this smile was a little helpless - this damn question every time.
"Listen, the waves are surging over the river!" The boy in brocade opened the folding fan with a puff, and looked at Liu Jian with a frown and thought triumphantly, and couldn't help but feel happy. "This son said that he got a wonderful sentence by the river today, how about it? haha!"
The kid said nonsense and sailed into Huayi Alley. ”
After Liu Jian finished speaking, he continued to stand with his eyebrows lowered and pleasing to his eyes, and the boy laughed, folded his fan, and patted his palm, and then it was his turn to start frowning.
Duan An pouted on the side, every time he came, he had to fight the master, I really don't know if you came to find the girl, or did you come to find this Xiao Chunzi? Every time you reward yourself with only five taels of silver, you will lose fifty taels here in this kid, which is more than the girl's overnight fee.
Liu Jian was surprisingly calm at this time, but he complained in his heart that this son had been less in the past six months, almost twice a month. I heard that he once said that his family forced him to study more, so that he could get ahead in the imperial examination in half a year.
The imperial examination is held every three years, but I don't know how far this system has developed in this strange world. Liu Jian also has this kind of thought, no matter what his background is, he naturally knows how many catties and taels of ink in his stomach is, and he can write poems, but he is a layman who doesn't know anything about governing the country and security.
Suddenly felt two slightly sharp gazes hit him, Liu Jian did not move, and still stood with low eyebrows.
"I have heard the name of Feng Manlou for a long time, and now I can see it, and it is really extraordinary. ”
The scholar arched his hand and took a few steps forward. The boy in brocade stepped aside, and gave a disciple to this scholar who looked like he was only twenty-four or five, and it seemed that he was really the disciple of this scholar.
The strangeness quickly attracted the attention of the surrounding guests and girls, and the people in the surrounding rooms also poked their heads out, and the people in the hall below also looked up.
The young man in brocade said triumphantly to Liu Jian: "Brother Chun, this is the famous Mr. Langmei in this province, and he was the twelfth in the last Xie Yuan and the palace examination. What's the matter, are you scared?"
Do you have the sound of the tide?
Liu Jian couldn't help but be happy, he couldn't recognize this scholar when he saw this appearance, but when he heard this name, Liu Jian remembered that he had laughed once because of it.
This name has quite a surname, and this name inexplicably poked Liu Jian's laughter. Although he didn't really laugh out loud, the look of can't help but laugh also made the scholar snort coldly, and his face was gloomy.
"This, Haruko, is laughing for some reason, but is he making fun of the contemptible people?"
He originally wanted to call Liu Jian by his name, but this young man didn't have a loud name; Therefore, he could only shout Xiao Chunzi with his hand, and with his cold face that was not smiling, it was somewhat nondescript.
"How dare Xiao Chunzi," Liu Jian lowered his head and raised his eyebrows, and said respectfully to this step tide: "I laughed because I saw that Mr. remembered the interesting things of the past years, and I had a relationship with Mr. last year." ”
"Oh?" The scholar sighed lightly, glanced at Liu Jian, and then suddenly realized, and said in surprise: "It's you, the boy who caresses the piano next to Miss Suisi, can you improve your piano skills again?
"Feng Manlou doesn't raise lazy people, and Xiao Chunzi is just begging for food, and mixing to make a living is also for the future. ”
"It's a pity, it's a pity. The scholar shook his head and sighed at Liu Jian, "You are a person with outstanding talents, but why don't you leave this land of fireworks and willows and moons, and delay your future in vain." ”
"That's it," the brocade boy came up, "Brother Chun, I just need a scholar to study with when I go to Beijing to catch the exam, so it's better to redeem you in this Fengmanlou." ”
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding guest girls were a burst of discussion, and this thing was really strange today. It is common for a high-roller to redeem a girl, but he didn't expect to meet a son who ransomed his body for a turtle father, but I don't know if this famous Zhu Gongzi in the city has a unique habit.
"Thank you Mr. Zhu for your kindness, and thank you Mr. for your concern. I grew up in this Fengmanlou since I was a child, and this place has nurtured me, so I don't want to leave easily. The land of fireworks, the place of willow moon, the wind and snow moon are just what I want. ”
Liu Jian's face didn't look unusual, but with this calm and unhurried bearing, he gave way to the tide and nodded secretly. After nodding his head, he shook his head for a while, and he always felt a pity for this good seedling.
"No matter what, everyone has their own ambitions and can't be forced. If you take a sentence and enter Huayi Alley, then I will say another sentence. ”
"Master made a quatrain, so he couldn't take it!" the boy in brocade shouted and cheered on the side.
The surrounding guests know how to listen attentively, and those who are illiterate cannot show that they do not understand poetry, so they also listen attentively. The girls naturally looked to Haruko under the same roof, and listened nervously.
"Sir, please. Liu Jian bowed his hand respectfully, and with such a famous gentleman, he must do these vulgar rites sufficiently.
"Well," Bu Chaosheng nodded, pacing slowly with his hands behind his back, and a pair of cloth shoes took a steady step, which made Liu Jian unable to help but concentrate. I heard this scholar who had taken the palace examination read:
"The waves are surging over the river, and the boat enters the flower clothes alley. The shore is far away, and the water is inseparable. ”
Liu Jian was slightly stunned, you have finished the four sentences, what else should I ask me to take? Yes, my first two sentences are not neat, and the rhyme is also incomplete, not a quatrain. He still needs to do two more sentences, but what should he do makes him frown and groan.
It is indeed stumped, the waves overturn, the boat enters, the shore walks, the water flows, the people are far away, and the shadow is not separated...... Even if you want to plagiarize, you can't think of a suitable sentence for a while.
"Hahaha!" The laughter of the boy in brocade disturbed his mind, the revenge of the past four years has been avenged, and this boy is unspeakably happy. The scholar waved his hand slightly, and Zhu Gongzi's laughter was halfway through, and he swallowed it back alive.
"Good poems, good sentences!" a male guest shaking a paper fan exclaimed, which immediately attracted a wave of praise from the surroundings. "Mr. Lang Mei is really talented, and I am convinced. ”
No, it's too pale.
The merchant girl doesn't know how to hate, especially the flowers in the backyard, and there has been no war in this court in the past hundred years, and plagiarism is not allowed.
Unconsciously, Liu Jian frowned and began to walk, and the surrounding guests held their breath and kept their eyes moving with Liu Jian's pace. Several girls who were familiar with him also frowned and pondered, seeing if they could help him, they had been with him for a few years before pulling their hair.
"Brother Chun, Brother Chun! Mother Wang asked you to go to her to entertain guests immediately!"
The little mosquito stood at the back of the crowd and shouted, which immediately provoked the angry eyes of several guests. The little mosquito shrunk his neck, not knowing what anger he had committed.
"Got it!" Liu Jian replied on tiptoe, but his frowning brows stretched a little, and he said to Mr. Lang Mei who was standing quietly.
"There you go. ”
