"Senior sister, I..." Lu Li stood at the corner of the street, looking at the attic where singing and dancing were flourishing not far away. The sun has sunk below the distant mountains, the setting red tassel hangs down half of the sky, and the twilight is getting late.
Qiong also saw that her junior brother was cowering and did not dare to go to Yunliang Pavilion, so she said: "Let's go in together."
"If Master, Master knows that we have entered a place like this, our legs will be broken when we go back!" Lu Li came here, but began to retreat. He hugged the pillar under the eaves of the roadside and refused to let go. : "If master knew that you took me and Xiaosi there, he would definitely let you stay on the mechanism road in Baishiya for a month!"
"Master also said that we should be heroic and courageous!" Qiong Yi took Lu Li's hand: "Master also said that I should practice swordplay for at least an hour every day! I don't see you being obedient!"
"Lu Li has great ears, you can choose what to say." Yang Xiaosi said with a knife on the side.
"Xiao Si!" Lu Li pointed at the two of them dressed as followers and said angrily: "I am the one walking in front, and I am the one who is embarrassed. If someone from the school sees me, my reputation will be ruined. In the future, No girl wants to fall in love with me, so who will bear this responsibility!"
Yang Xiaosi rolled his eyes when he heard this. He really couldn't feel the girlish feelings he had in the past at all! He was so angry that he almost carried him on his back, so he and Qiong Yi worked together to pull him off the pillar, gritting his teeth: "I'll bear it! I'll bear it! That's it!"
Seeing that his junior brother was really an idiot, Qiong Yi was amazed and coaxed: "When we get back to Guangyang, I'll ask A Luo to make delicious food for you!"
Under Zhu Yunluo's unparalleled cooking skills, Lu Li secretly weighed it for a long time before finally nodding: "Okay!"
The three of them straightened their clothes and hair, and walked towards the gate of Yunliang Pavilion under the lights that came on one after another.
Standing outside the attic was an extremely fancy-dressed old woman, wrapped in layers of brightly colored clothes, with a gold-embroidered shawl draped over her plump arms, and a red silk peony hairpin in her bun. , the whole person looks like a fat peacock from a distance.
She waved to the people passing by in the distance, her crimson shawl dangling in the air, and a long and thin voice came out of her mouth: "Master, sir, please come in!"
As he got closer, a strong and pungent aroma of incense came over him, and Xun Diqiong also fanned himself repeatedly and covered his mouth and nose.
"Master, come in and listen to some music?"
The madam called to the passers-by, completely ignoring Lu Li who was standing in front of her. It wasn't until Lu Li called her that she turned her attention to the young master in front of her with two maids on one side and one on the right.
"Young Master, do you... want to rest or listen to some music?" The Madam did not lead Lu Li to the store. After hearing Lu Li's answer of "Anything is fine," she wiped it with the non-existent silk in her hand. Wiping the non-existent sweat on his forehead, he smiled and said, "Brother, at your age, all the girls in our family are much older than you..."
Lu Li could tell that the old woman in front of him despised him for still being a young child!
"Ahem." He coughed and pretended to be calm: "That doesn't matter."
"This...you are making things difficult for me!"
"Nothing is difficult or difficult to handle, I, I..." Lu Li was not very fluent in his speech. He wanted to say domineeringly: I can come if I want to, but the last sentence that came out of his mouth was: "I have money!"
"This..." When the madam saw him taking out the money, his somewhat embarrassed expression immediately turned flattering: "Of course this is easy to talk about!"
After that, he called into the brightly lit hall: "Rou'er, Yao'er, come and pick up the guests."
Two girls, one red and one purple, followed the sound and came to the door. One of them held Lu Li's hand and pulled Lu Li in forcefully: "Young Master, come here!"
With the beauty by his side and the fragrant breeze, Lu Li screamed for help in her heart.
Oh my god, senior sister, Xiaosi, how are we going to deal with this!
He turned around and saw two people behind him, their faces darkened in disguise, their heads lowered and snickering. His already panic-stricken heart became even colder.
"Young Master, are you here for the first time?" Rou'er, who was dressed in red gauze, climbed onto Lu Li's arm with her fingertips dyed with flower juice, "Would you like me to take you upstairs to listen to a little song? "
Yao'er, who was wearing a purple dance skirt, hugged Lu Li's arm and said with a smile: "Young master, you must have never seen Yao'er's dance. When you get to the house, I will dance for you and have a look."
Lu Li had goosebumps all over the floor.
"I...I want to see your girl named Wei Ying." He almost bit his tongue when he opened his mouth, "Let her come to see me."
Hearing what Lu Li said, the two girls looked at each other first, and then put smiles on their faces: "Oh, sister Ying'er has only been here not long ago. She is clumsy and can't serve you well, so let us do it."
Lu Li said, "I want her to come."
The two of them were speechless, one of them winked, and the other immediately went to find the old bustard who was waiting for customers at the door. The old bustard didn't know what he ordered, and asked Rou'er in red to take the three of them upstairs. After Mo Yue had a cup of tea, Suddenly, there was a light knock on the door.
"Yes... Mom asked me to come and serve the young master..."
Her voice was dry and hoarse. After hearing the knock on the door, Rou'er finally stopped pestering Lu Li, stood up, opened the door, and walked out.
Although Rou'er's voice was very low, Qiong Yi could still clearly hear her vicious words in Wei Ying's ear after she left the door: "If you dare to resist and hurt the guest again, you won't be able to eat tomorrow's meal! "
"yes……"
After finishing speaking, Wei Ying adjusted her breathing deeply, tried her best to put on a smile on her face, and walked towards the house.
After walking into the house, she closed the door and lowered her head, not daring to look at each other. She just said: "Sir... yes, do you want to listen to the music first, or do you want me to order tea for you, or..."
There was no sound in front of her. Wei Ying raised her head in confusion, but what she saw was Lu Li's expression of relief. He collapsed on the bed and said, "My dear mother, that person is finally gone!"
Yang Xiaosi kicked Lu Li's feet: "Who told you to lie down? Get up!"
The scene in front of her didn't look like a master-servant relationship, and Wei Ying's doubts deepened.
"You two, keep your voices down!" Qiong Yi walked towards Wei Ying and said to her, "Don't make any noise, and don't be afraid. I'm here specifically to see you."
"...Looking for me?" Her wheat-colored face was full of disbelief: "I...don't know you."
"You definitely don't know me, but you must know this one." Qiong Yi said, taking out a somewhat old red-headed rope from her arms. Before she came to Yunliang Pavilion, she went to the village to find the little girl for it. , "A few days ago, I accidentally met Wei Xinxin, who lives alone. I also heard about your family's affairs, and I thought if I could help."
Wei Ying took the headband, her fingers couldn't help but trembled: "It's...it's Xiaoxin's headband..."
She clutched her headband tightly, gritted her teeth and asked, "Girl, are you...really here to help me?"
Qiong also nodded.
"...Why?" Wei Ying took a few steps back, "You and I don't know each other, why do you want to help me?"
Qiong also answered the question: "I am a disciple of the Lu family in Guangyang. My ancestors were rangers. It is best to do righteous things."
When Wei Ying heard this, her nose felt sour, and she was about to bend down and kowtow, but Yang Xiaosi quickly supported her. She cried, "Thank you, little fairies, and thank you, little fairy!"
"Even though I'm in a place like this, it's unbearable, but it's true that the mother in this building paid me a high price and helped me bury my father. I left Xiaoxin with a child in the village. I, I really can't help her..."
She asked again: "How can you help me?"
Qiong also looked at the bruises hidden under Wei Ying's gauze clothes. There were eye-catching scratches, pinch marks, and some bruises from sticks. She thought to herself: It seems that after selling herself here, she has eaten suffered a lot.
"I think if something like this happened to your family, you should at least seek justice."
Wei Ying originally thought that the few people in front of her could save her from here. After hearing Qiong Yi's words, her face showed disappointment. However, this disappointment was too difficult to detect in front of Qiong Yi, who did not understand the complexity of human nature. .
Qiong Yi was still thinking in her mind, it would be great if the compensation from the family that hit the person in the end was enough for Wei Ying to redeem herself.
While she was thinking about it, she took out the note she had written before from her arms.
The next step is to be a witness and have your fingerprints stamped.
There was already a small fingerprint on the signature. The mark was made with great force, and the red color was heavy.
Rou'er was standing outside the door eavesdropping. She didn't know what the people in the room were muttering to each other. At first, Lu Li asked Wei Ying to come by name. She was a little suspicious, thinking that she was not a big shot. , as for letting the rich young master call it in person!
Then I heard the vague voice of a strange woman in the room, and thought, this servant girl's mouth is really eloquent!
In the room, Qiong Yi was reading the words written on the note to Wei Ying word by word. When she was about to press her fingerprints, there was a loud "dong dong" knock at the door: "Sister Ying, Why is there no movement in the house, what are you doing inside?"
This greeting just attracted the madam who was picking up the guests upstairs. She glanced this way and thought to herself, Wei Ying, the new girl, must not cause any trouble again!
The four people in the room were suddenly frightened, and they didn't know whether they should speak or not. Qiong Yi quickly hid the note in her arms, fearing that the door would be pushed open and someone would bump into her. However, at this moment, the wooden box containing cinnabar in Yang Xiaosi's hand could not be closed for a while, and she was in a hurry.
Lu Li suddenly thought out of his wits and said, "No, this tune is too low, it doesn't sound good! Please change it to another one!"
After hearing this, Rou'er paused while knocking on the door.
Wei Ying wanted to cooperate with him in the performance, but her voice, which was still in a state of fright, could not sing.
"Are you going to sing?" Lu Li asked anxiously, with words written vividly on his face: If you don't sing, they will come in!
The more anxious Wei Ying became, the less she could sing.
Qiong also heard a strong push on the door. At this critical moment, she cleared her throat briefly, imitating Wei Ying's tone, and imitating the sound coming from an unknown room when she went upstairs. singing voice.
Rou'er outside the house was stunned, and the madam who heard the singing was also stunned.
If Qiong Yi knew Wei Ying's singing skills, she would not speak even if she was beaten to death.
The song is clear and ethereal, curling like smoke.
Standing behind the Madam, the man whom she treated as a distinguished guest stopped and asked, "Which girl from your family sang this, why have I never heard it before?"
"Mr. Su, this, this, I'm afraid this wasn't sung by my girl!" The old madam pinched the silk and smiled, then turned her head and immediately changed her face, glaring at Rou'er who was still standing outside the door, "Still standing there. What are you doing! Like a wooden stake, you don’t even know how to pick up the young master when he comes!"
Rou'er squirmed aggrievedly, then walked up to him coquettishly with small steps: "Oh! Master! I didn't see you just now! Besides, when I saw you, wasn't my eyes and heart full of you! "
"Really?" The man grinned, hugged Rou'er's slim waist, and walked towards the front room: "Then I will love you very much tonight."
