After a while.
Shu Xiaoxiao carried the basin over with some difficulty.
His face was flushed, and the fine hair on his forehead was wet with sweat and stuck together.
"Sir, I'm here!"
"Yeah!" Jiang Yuan nodded slightly.
Under Shu Xiaoxiao's service, after Jiang Yuan finished washing, he said to her: "Come with me to Yunyan Tower today to listen to some songs!"
"Ah! Master, shall I go with you?"
"Yeah!" Jiang Yuan nodded while wiping his hands.
"Then do we need to call Uncle Ma and the others?"
"No need!"
...
Along the way, Shu Xiaoxiao's face was full of excitement.
Curious eyes kept looking around.
Everything in Lin'an County is extremely new to her.
When she first came to An County, she was sold to Yunyan Tower by her parents.
At that time, she felt nothing but darkness in her heart, and she had no time to care.
Now my mood is completely different. I am full of peace of mind following Jiang Yuan.
There is peace in my heart!
Just when the two of them were halfway through their journey.
A voice suddenly came from behind.
"Mr. Jiang, please wait!"
Jiang Yuan looked back and saw a rich old man looking at him with a smile.
"Who are you?" Jiang Yuan was a little confused.
At this moment, the door curtain of the sedan next to him was suddenly swept open.
"it's me!"
An old and gentle voice came into Jiang Yuan's ears.
"It turns out to be Master Xia!"
Jiang Yuan cupped his hands and said, "I wonder if Master Xia has any advice?"
The person who came was none other than the master of the county government, and almost all the affairs of the county government were handled by him alone.
It can be called one of Li Hong's true confidants.
Master Xia looked at Shu Xiaoxiao and then at Jiang Yuan.
"Where are you going?"
"Yunyan Tower!" Jiang Yuandao.
When he heard these three words, he frowned immediately.
Then he said: "Jiang Yuan, you are still young and talented, why don't you go to practice and waste your time in this kind of hook-up place."
"Do you know? The county magistrate has been very disappointed with you recently!"
Jiang Yuan: "..."
Jiang Yuan suddenly looked at him speechlessly.
Then he said calmly: "I go to Yunyan Tower to practice."
"䱱..." Hearing Jiang Yuan's words, he suddenly choked up.
Then he sighed: "That's alright! It's all up to you, I'll take my leave! I hope you can take care of yourself in the future."
After saying that, he returned to the sedan chair.
There was a bit of anger in his tone: "Steward Lin, go back home!"
"yes!"
The slightly wealthy middle-aged man bowed his head and responded.
Then he opened his voice and said: "Let's drive!"
After watching the Yamen Master's bridge go away, Jiang Yuan vaguely heard something.
"It's really rotten wood that cannot be carved!"
After a while.
Shu Xiaoxiao said softly: "Master, is this a conflict with him?
Jiang Yuan smiled: "How can there be any conflict! He also has good intentions, but he thinks too highly of himself!"
After speaking, Jiang Yuan shook his head.
"Let's go!"
Seeing this, Shu Xiaoxiao quickly followed.
...
After a while.
Yunyan Tower.
Jiang Yuan had just stepped through the gate.
A familiar voice suddenly reached my ears.
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Jiang!"
"I was just telling you why I kept hearing the cries of magpies just now. It turns out that Mr. Jiang is here!"
The old lady from before immediately greeted him with a smile on her face.
Then, she came to Jiang Yuan and said with some embarrassment: "Mr. Jiang, you see it's just noon now, and the girls are all resting."
Jiang Yuan waved his hand: "Call Su Xin and play a little song for me."
When she heard this sentence, her worries turned into joy: "She! It's easy to talk to her!"
After saying that, she hurriedly ran to the backyard.
...
After a while.
Tianzi No. 1 private room.
Just as Jiang Yuan had a drink, there was a "dong dong dong" knock on the door.
"Enter!"
Squeak!
The door was slowly opened.
A young girl appeared in front of Jiang Yuan. She was about nine years old and dressed in plain white.
"The little girl Su Xin has met Mr. Jiang!"
She bowed Yingying.
[Name]: Bai Susu
[Border]: Not yet entering the country
[Innate Luck]: Natural Sound (White) Mastery of Music (White) Scholarly Family (White)
[Sound of Nature]: With an outstanding singing voice, her singing can soothe the soul.
[Proficient in Music]: She has superb piano skills, and her music can directly reach the soul.
[Scholarly Family]: Born into a scholarly family, he has outstanding talent for playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Then he sat aside demurely.
"I don't know what Young Master Jiang wants to hear."
"Whatever, play what you're good at, softly."
She nodded slightly.
Then his long fingers landed on the strings.
In an instant, the soft sound was like a clear spring flowing with rippling water drops.
It seemed like a breeze was blowing through the mountains and birds were singing in the woods.
A comfortable feeling appeared in Jiang Yuan's mind.
The dull pain in the center of my eyebrows immediately eased a lot.
good!
Jiang Yuan nodded slightly.
My guess was right, her music did have the effect of soothing mental trauma.
Later, Jiang Yuan lay on Shu Xiaoxiao's lap.
Shu Xiaoxiao instantly understood and put his fingers between Jiang Yuan's temples, massaging them gently.
This day.
In the Tianzi No. 1 box on the second floor, the sound of piano and singing continued all day long.
...
evening.
Jiang Yuan slowly opened his eyes.
Seeing the girl in white in front of her tighten her mouth, tears fell from her eyes.
There was blood oozing out from the fingertips.
Jiang Yuandao: "Do you hate me?"
As Jiang Yuan spoke, the music slowly stopped.
Su Xin shook her head and wiped her tears with her sleeve.
"I don't dare, but I still don't hate it!"
"Even if I don't dare to hate, I won't hate it either!"
Jiang Yuandao: "You are quite honest!"
Then he said: "I heard that your father is the governor of Qinghe County?"
Su Xin nodded, but didn't want to say more.
Jiang Yuan looked at her plain white clothes, and then said: "You have been a filial piety for three years, and you are quite filial!"
"It's just what a child should do!"
She pursed her lips and said.
Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "I heard that you only want to be a shepherd?"
Suddenly, she looked at Jiang Yuan with wide eyes.
Jiang Yuan smiled: "You played the piano well today and helped me. I will grant your wish."
While speaking, Jiang Yuan pulled the red rope.
When the red rope moves, the bell downstairs will ring.
They will know that something is coming for them upstairs.
Hearing Jiang Yuan's words.
Su Xin instantly "plopped" and knelt softly on the ground.
"Thank you Mr. Jiang for your great kindness!"
No one knows how much torture she endured while still maintaining her innocence.
Because my father committed a heinous crime, dozens of members of the family were exiled or beheaded.
She was also turned into a prostitute. If they hadn't thought that she was the legitimate daughter of the former governor of Qinghe County and that her father had some connections during his lifetime, they would not have dared to force her too much.
If it weren't for these various reasons, her so-called struggle would have been in vain.
But now, with Jiang Yuan's words, she knew that she was safe and could keep this innocent body.
Jiang Yuan said calmly: "No need to thank you, you insisted on playing the guqin all afternoon and earned it yourself."
