Li Qingyi hasn’t had an attack yet, but Liu’s mother’s face turned green.
She was afraid that the money she got would be lost, so she wanted to take Biying out and give her a scolding.
Li Qingyi's mind was racing, but he was not angry. He pushed the banknote in front of Liu's mother and said with a smile: "Mom, go ahead! I'll say a few words to this girl Biying."
Mother Liu didn't expect these people to be so easy to talk to. She stretched out her hand to take out the banknotes, smiled as brightly as a flower, and hurried out happily.
Biying was very surprised and puzzled by Li Qingyi's behavior. Just when she was about to speak, Li Qingyi raised his hand to stop her. He walked to the table beside him unhurriedly, wrote a few strokes on the rice paper, folded it and handed it to Biying. .
"You go back and tell Miss Ayuan that I know what she wants, and only I can give it to her."
Every time Liu's mother took the initiative and took the money and asked A Yuan to talk to the guests, she was rejected twice out of three times. However, Liu's mother still expected A Yuan to be her cash cow and did not force it. In the end, she did everything herself. Come forward and suppress it.
Biying hesitated to speak, hesitated, and finally took the folded paper and went to find Ayuan.
A Yuan had already washed herself and was lying comfortably on the beauty's back to rest. Seeing Biying come back with a strange look on her face, she hurriedly asked: "What's wrong?"
Biying explained Li Qingyi's words in detail. Ayuan frowned slightly and unfolded the snow-white rice paper. There was only one word on it: Lin!
She straightened up from the beauty's back. Seeing her expression, Biying said uneasily: "Girl, otherwise, we'd better send them away!"
A Yuan clenched her palms tightly and crumpled the ball of rice paper into a ball. She had never told anyone what she was thinking.
How could this person know what she wanted?
Or is it just being mysterious?
After thinking for a moment, A Yuan still shook his head and said: "Go and invite them to my yard."
Not long after, Biying returned to the private room where Li Qingyi and others were staying, bowed her head and said respectfully, "Please come with me!"
Isatis glanced at Li Qingyi in surprise, and asked in a low voice: "What did the girl write?"
Li Qingyi smiled slightly and did not answer.
Several people followed Biying to a private courtyard in the east of the backyard. The yard is very spacious, with several hibiscus trees standing in the yard. The lavender flowers bloom quietly, exuding a faint cold fragrance.
A Yuan inside heard the commotion and came out from the inner room. She was dressed in lavender, and her beauty was a bit moving, but her face was still half covered with white gauze. She looked at a few people, said a long blessing, and made a Please gesture.
Li Qingyi knew that her guess was right when he saw that her behavior was not like the low-level female prostitutes he had seen outside before. She behaved wildly and joked wildly with the guests.
Several people followed A Yuan into the inner room and swept around. Unlike the popular female actress's extravagance, A Yuan seemed not to like the ostentation. With Bi Ying here, there was no extra person.
The hollow auspicious carved patterns on the table seem to be the only thing in this room that is not plain enough.
Li Qingyi's eyes fell on A Yuan. The cloud pattern on her dress was exquisite and beautiful. Although she covered half of her face, she could still clearly see the sparkling light in her almond-shaped eyes, the kind of look that penetrated her body. The radiance makes it impossible for others to take away her brilliance easily.
A Yuan could feel Li Qingyi's eyes looking at him but still maintained a calm posture, and cooked tea for them with her own hands, "I wonder what I call this young master?"
Li Qingyi said with a smile: "My surname is Li."
A Yuan personally served the tea cup to Li Qingyi, "It turns out to be Master Li. I wonder what the word "Master" means?"
"Miss A-Yuan speaks bluntly, so I have something to say directly." Li Qingyi smiled lightly and said, "I wonder why Miss A-Yuan wants to escape from this gold-plated cave with jade inlays?"
A Yuan stiffened, and the poured tea splashed all over her hands.
Biying's face turned pale when she heard Li Qingyi's words. Seeing Ayuan lose her composure, she hurriedly stepped forward to serve. Ayuan stopped her and said, "Go and guard outside the door first."
"yes."
Biying glanced at Li Qingyi and others in fear, then turned around and left.
"Master, what do you mean by this..." A Yuan said softly, as if he didn't care.
After waiting for a while, Li Qingyi didn't speak, but just looked at her, his eyes as dark as the sea.
A Yuan knew that the other party had come prepared, so she sighed and said with a wry smile: "I grew up under Mama Liu's hands, and I'm used to seeing ruthless people greeting each other. In Baoyue Pavilion, the most popular person is The girl is called a spirit fairy. When one spirit fairy gets old and ugly, another spirit fairy will take over. Now I am just young enough to have the freshest and best name, but in a few years, someone else will come to take my place. Let me go. A person's life is so long, and I don't want to just bloom for a few years."
Chang Ning and others did not expect that a brothel girl would have such insight, and they couldn't help but look surprised.
Li Qingyi seemed to have expected it, showing a gentle smile and said: "Young lady has worked hard with Mother Liu for many years, and she must have put a lot of thought into it. Are you willing to become a concubine in the Duke's house? Do you know? The scheming and deceitful intentions of the noble family? Not to mention three wives and four concubines, the wife has to work hard and the concubine is even more worried. Where can you find the peace you want for the rest of your life? "
Li Qingyi revealed A Yuan's plot with one word. A Yuan's face changed and she felt confused and uneasy.
If this thing doesn't work out, she's afraid...
After thinking for a moment, A Yuan's voice contained a hint of suppressed sobs, and her eyes looking at Li Qingyi became increasingly pleading and hopeful.
He said sincerely: "I also know that the Duke's family is not a good place to live, but with my background, what other way out can I have? I never ask for two people for the rest of my life, and I don't care whether my husband's family will I put it in my heart and love me to such an extent... I just ask that person to take a fancy to my momentary glory and redeem my life. As long as I leave this place, I am willing to be a maid or a concubine."
Li Qingyi rubbed the porcelain cup in his hand with his fingers and said, "So, you deliberately chose the third son of the Lin family?"
When A Yuan saw the word "LIN" written in black and white on the paper, she knew that this matter could not be hidden, but now that she heard someone ask it in person, her hands still couldn't help but tremble.
She didn't know where these people were from, whether they were from the Lin family. But since it is clear what she did, there must be an explanation for this matter.
A Yuan slowly knelt down in front of Li Qingyi, holding her tearful eyes with her slender hands, and said unsteadily: "A Yuan doesn't want to be a prostitute who can do everything she wants after she gets old and loses her beauty. I beg you, sir..."
Li Qingyi looked down at her, "You chose Lin Ji not only because Lin Ji is willing to spend a lot of money for you, but also because he is not a smart person. You believe that as long as you leave Baoyue Pavilion, you can hold Lin Ji in your hands. Even if you can’t be favored forever, you can still live and work in peace, right?”
A Yuan was stunned for a moment.
Just listen to Li Qingyi continue: "The Nanning Marquis Mansion has also experienced decades of prosperity. Although it was defeated, such a family attaches great importance to rules. Let's not talk about whether Lin Ji can surpass Nanning Houhe and Mrs. Lin first without marrying a wife. Taking a concubine. Even if Lin Ji carries you into the Lin Mansion in a small sedan, from now on you will be buried deep in the high-walled compound, unable to take a step for the rest of your life, and your children will not even be able to call you mother."
A Yuan's lips trembled. She wanted to break away from the shackles of Baoyue Pavilion and leave this romantic place. She did not hesitate to be a concubine, but she didn't know that being a concubine also had many difficulties.
Li Qingyi spoke very earnestly, "At best, a concubine will be shorter than others. At worst...if you have a child, you won't be able to give birth, or you will die without growing up...Have you ever thought about these? Those How many of the concubines in Hou Men's mansion have no children and eventually wither in the dark? How much room can they have if they are under others? Is this kind of day any better than you leaning against the door of Baoyue Pavilion and showing off your smile? Yet?"
Li Qingyi's words were pressed one after another. Ayuan sat on the ground dumbfounded, feeling cold to the heart and lungs. The sobs in her throat gradually turned into despair and silence. Her eyes were empty and she had no energy at all.
After hearing these words, Chang Ning felt his chest tightening and he couldn't breathe. He looked at Li Qingyi frequently, wondering how a teenage girl could say such cold and heartless words.
But only Li Qingyi knew that what she said was just a cold and dark corner of the back house.
"Let's not talk about whether Third Young Master Lin can really redeem your life. Do you know that the Second Lady of the Lin Mansion secretly ordered Mrs. Ya to give your ransom to someone in the name of Third Young Master Shen?"
