Li Mobai's thoughts seemed to be heard by Li Yuanwai, who said: "Although Huailan Pavilion is the number one brothel, when it comes to the number one courtesan, it is Ruyi Pavilion! I'm afraid even Huailan Pavilion is the number one brothel." It may not be comparable!”
Li Mobai said curiously: "I would like to hear the details!"
Li Hu was the first to speak. He used to hang out in brothels and knew more about it than his father.
Li Hu said: "Let me tell you, the oiran from Ruyilou's name is me Si Qing!"
Li Mobai asked strangely: "Is there anyone with my last name?"
Li Hu said: "That's right. I miss the courtesan, but she is a performer, not a person! Her piano skills are outstanding, and people are also gifted. As an courtesan, she rarely accepts guests! She wants to spend a lot of money All the people who want to see her line up outside Dongping County! Not only the rich people in our Dongping County, but also the wealthy gentry from other counties come here because of her reputation!"
"In that case! Won't the madam force her to accept guests?"
Li Hu said: "That's useless! I'm a very independent person, very smart, and eloquent. It is said that she gave this madam an analysis and said that if you don't receive guests casually, you can make more money than if you receive more guests. Money! The madam was so confused by what she said that she listened to her in everything."
"Sounds like fun!"
Li Hu added: "It is said that I sometimes take a boat trip on the lake when I am in love. If I meet someone by chance in the lake, I can go to her boat to listen to the piano. Today we are lucky and we met by chance. It is a worthwhile trip!" "
While the two were talking, Li Yuanwai had already asked the boy to wave at the side of the boat, and the two boats gradually approached.
Li Mobai asked again: "Then if everyone wants to see me, can they wait on the lake?"
Li Hu said: "At first, there were indeed many people waiting on the lake by boat, hoping to meet them! But I don't visit the lake every day, and Fengming Lake is so big, many people couldn't wait, and gradually they stopped coming. .”
After hearing what Li Hu said so much, everyone became more and more curious. Not only men like Wang Erhu and Little Goat are curious, but even Yan Qi, who has always been indifferent, also wants to meet this I Siqing and see what charm she has?
The two boats finally approached and were moving forward at the same speed. Then some boys got busy, holding the two boats with ropes and putting wooden boards between them, so that they could walk from the boats to That boat is gone.
However, the boat will inevitably shake, and the wooden planks placed on it are not completely stable.
"I'll go first!"
Li Hu has martial arts skills, so this is a piece of cake for him. With a few steps, he flew from this boat to the boat of my thoughts.
Although it was a bit dangerous, Li Mobai and the others followed closely and walked to the opposite side on the wooden board.
Then other people came over one by one.
Mr. Li was also coming over. After he stepped on the plank, he was not flexible enough because of his weight.
Unexpectedly, as he was leaving, the boat swayed, and Mr. Li slipped and fell into the water with a "plop".
For a moment, the people on the two boats were panicked.
"Fell into the water, member Li fell into the water!"
"Go and save Mr. Li!"
Many people shouted, some threw ropes into the water, and some stretched out long sticks.
But Mr. Li didn't know how to swim. He splashed in the water, and the lake water poured into his mouth several times.
Soon after, a figure was seen and jumped into the lake. He was like a fish, swimming nimbly in the water. He quickly caught Mr. Li and helped him out of the water.
Li Yuanwai's body is very heavy, but he was able to rescue Li Yuanwai so easily, which shows that his water skills are very strong.
The man grabbed the rope and tied it around Li Yuanwai's waist. Then the people on the boat pulled hard and rescued Li Yuanwai.
The man in the water also climbed into the boat.
When Li Mobai looked at it, the person who rescued Yuan Li was none other than Lu Zhu!
He waded all over the water, and then pressed Mr. Li's chest until he spit out several mouthfuls of water.
Only then did Li Yuanwai wake up.
When member Li fell into the water, I also stopped playing the piano. Her face was covered with gauze and she looked out through the curtain.
"Dad, how are you?"
Li Hu shouted worriedly. He jumped up and jumped back from the oiran's boat.
"Dad, have you ever been injured? What happened to these people? At such an old age, how can you let him go on the board alone?"
After Li Feiyan heard the news, she ran out anxiously and scolded the valet who served her father.
Li Mobai and the others also wanted to go back, but Li Hu stopped them. After all, it was not easy to meet an oiran by chance. He and his sister Feiyan could just go take care of his father without them coming.
Li Hu returned to the boat and accompanied Li Yuanwai to change clothes with his sister Feiyan. Fortunately, Lu Zhu had taken action in time, so Li Yuanwai was not seriously injured.
There was no danger here, Li Mobai came to his senses, and they walked together outside the curtain of my thoughts.
She has a slim figure. Looking through the curtain, although the whole picture cannot be seen clearly, her faint figure is like a painting, and there is a faint scent of sandalwood exuding.
"Are you Mr. Li Mobai and Mr. Li?" I asked thoughtfully.
"It's just me, I'm destined to meet you."
I thought without saying much.
A maid came out and arranged for Li Mobai, Yan Qi, Wang Erhu, and Little Goat to sit down in the painted boat. At the same time, someone brought them tea.
I Siqing was sitting at the piano table. There was a bead curtain in front of her, separating everyone.
Li Mobai thought to himself, it is really not easy to meet her! She was in this bead curtain, even wearing a veil. She could only see a figure through the bead curtain.
"I wonder what kind of incense my lady uses, it smells very good." Li Mobai said.
"Master Li, it is really extraordinary. This incense is called Sandalwood Qi Incense. It has a unique fragrance and is used to smoke clothes for a long time. It is produced in the Western Regions and is rare in the Central Plains." I said thoughtfully.
When she spoke, she waved, and a little maid went to get a box.
"Since Mr. Li likes this fragrance, the little lady will give you a box as a gift."
Li Mobai took the box of incense and opened it. There were twenty sticks inside, and the fragrance was fragrant.
Wang Erhu also said at this time: "My lady, if you see me, can you also give me a box?"
I thought thoughtfully and said, "This fragrance is only given to those who understand fragrance, and that's it for you."
Li Mobai listened to what I was talking about. She seemed to know all of them very well. She couldn't help but curiously asked: "How did my lady recognize me?"
"Master Li is smart and knowledgeable, and he solves strange cases repeatedly! The people of Dongping County call him Qingtian's parents! Is it surprising that he knows the little girl?"
After she finished speaking, she started to play the piano again. Li Mobai and others did not want to disturb her by talking, so they all listened to the piano quietly.
Gradually, the two boats separated some distance, but they were still traveling together.
The breeze was blowing, and on the boat where I was thinking about my feelings, red gauze was flying, and the music of the piano was playing. Everyone sat here quietly, as if they were in a dream.
I don’t know how long it took, but I was about to go back. Li Mobai and others returned to the original boat through the wooden plank again, and said goodbye to the boat where I was thinking.
After returning to the ship, Li Hu regretted not being able to go to the Woseqing ship to listen to the piano.
Wang Erhu comforted him, saying there was nothing nice to say. He stayed there for a long time and didn't see what I was thinking about.
