In this room, Zhao Paner, in case Ouyang Xu wanted to default on his debt, continued to block the courtyard door of Ouyang Xu's house with He Si and others, beating gongs and drums, and shouted loudly:
“If you borrow something and don’t repay it, it’s an unforgivable fate!”
At the same time, Sun Sanniang was very busy in the kitchen of Sanyuan Inn. She opened the steamer, and instantly, white mist and aroma rushed out. The innkeeper and proprietress beside her stretched their necks to watch her carefully.
A plate of snacks shaped into flowers was brought out from the steamer. At this time, Sun Sanniang looked at the innkeeper and proprietress next to her and said proudly:
"Look, this color is so beautiful!"
"It's true, the flower dumplings made by Sanniang are extraordinary. Let me have a taste and see how it tastes!"
With that said, the proprietress of Sanyuan Inn didn't care about burning it, she just picked up a hot flower dumpling and started eating it. She was full of praises while eating. Sun Sanniang smiled and left her a portion of the flower dumpling and the rest.
All the flower dumplings were put into the food box, and they were going to be delivered to He Si and the others later. By the way, He Si was asked to bring another portion to Chi Yanei. Zhao Paner originally said that he would go to the street to buy some delicious food to reward He Si.
Four of them, but Sun Sanniang felt that she could make flower dumplings, which were more delicious than the pastries sold on the street. Instead of wasting money on buying those unpalatable pastries, it was better to make some delicious fruits by herself, so she asked
The proprietress of Sanyuan Inn borrowed the kitchen and made some beautiful and delicious flower dumplings!
Sun Sanniang turned around to get the tray. At this time, Song Yinzhang and Yin Ping girl just walked into the kitchen. Sun Sanniang accidentally almost bumped into Song Yinzhang who was standing behind her. Seeing that Song Yinzhang actually came to the kitchen, Sun Sanniang couldn't help but asked in surprise:
"Yinzhang, what are you doing here?"
"I"
Looking at Sun Sanniang who was busy, Song Yinzhang said in a confused tone:
"My sister told me that Ouyang Xu's place was too dangerous, so she asked me to stay with you!"
Looking at the soft and frail Song Yinzhang, Sun Sanniang felt that she seemed out of place in this kitchen, and it would be a bit of a hindrance here, so she said:
"Then don't stand in this kitchen, it's so hot!"
Looking at the frail and weak Song Yinzhang, the proprietress of Sanyuan Inn also helped Sun Sanniang to persuade:
"That's right, this kitchen is full of cooks. There are a lot of things and people, so don't burn out your rose!"
Seeing that both Sun Sanniang and Zhao Paner had something to do, but he was the only one with nothing to do, Song Yinzhang also wanted to help and said:
"It's okay, I can help!"
Hearing this, Sun Sanniang was helpless for a moment and could only tell the truth:
"You can't help here. You can go out for a walk and get some fresh air. Go quickly and let Yin Ping be with you!"
"All right!"
Finally, he took a look at Sun Sanniang who was busy and saw that the innkeepers and the landlady praised her for her skill, but he couldn't do anything other than playing the pipa. Song Yinzhang couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, and he turned around and left.
After a long while in the kitchen, I walked out of the courtyard and wandered in the direction of the imperial city with Yin Ping girl. This direction has great scenery, lots of people, and liveliness!
"What wonderful medicinal materials, sir, come and take a look!"
“Just take your pick!”
"Young master, pick whatever you want. This one nourishes yin and yang, and this one nourishes blood. The ladies at home can buy some of them!"
"No, give me something to replenish yang. I want a big tonic. The bigger the tonic, the better!"
"okay!"
The market in Tokyo is lively and bustling, with an endless stream of pedestrians and the shouts of vendors. Song Yinzhang and Yin Ping girl walked together, each holding a pink oil-paper umbrella, looking at the fresh products in the market.
Funny, at this time, all the people on the street suddenly started to surge, and many people were running past Song Yinzhang and Yinping girl, knocking Song Yinzhang staggering, and separated her from Yinping girl. Song Yinzhang
Looking around, she saw Yin Ping girl being carried forward by the crowd. She quickly chased after her, trying to catch up with Yin Ping.
"The oiran is here, the oiran is here!"
"Come and look, you won't be able to see it if you don't look!"
Seeing the pedestrians on the street running around telling each other and talking a lot, Song Yinzhang became curious. While chasing the silver vase, she looked around to see what kind of woman the "oiran" people talked about was like.
Many people like her and want to see her beauty.
On the street in front of the Imperial City, the surging crowd finally stopped. Song Yinzhang found the silver vase. The two of them followed the crowd and stood on tiptoes to look inside. In the middle of the street, they saw a man in colorful clothes with a stunning appearance.
The beautiful little lady came riding on a pure white horse.
The maid who opened the way spread flowers all the way, and the one who led the horse for her was actually an official. Surrounded by the oiran lady, there were dozens of young and beautiful musicians, all holding various kinds of music in their hands.
Musical instruments, the entire procession was centered around this oiran lady, so majestic!
People along the road rushed forward to get a closer look at the courtesan. These people talked one after another:
"Oh, isn't this Zhang Haohao?"
"Who is Zhang Haohao?"
"Teacher, this is the most famous oiran in Tokyo. Who doesn't know that the music she sings is like fairy music. Ordinary people like us have to spend a lot of money and wait for most of the time to listen to her music.
Months!"
"Today, the Eight Great Kings are celebrating their birthdays. The temple is dedicated to singing and dancing in the Yamen Tower. Madam Zhang sang a wild goose song. The officials not only rewarded her with a colorful dress, but also allowed her to tour the Imperial Street. Look.
Look, how beautiful it is!"
"Look at the hairpin on her head. It was awarded by the Eighth Birthday King. You can't buy it even if you spend hundreds of coins!"
Hearing the comments from people around him, Song Yinzhang couldn't help but murmur to himself:
"Jiaofang? She is a music singer?"
"What's wrong with Leji Kabuki? You still look down on her?"
Hearing Song Yinzhang's disdain for Zhang Haohao's status as a music singer, the Tokyo native next to him couldn't help but retort:
"Look who is holding her horse? Liu Jiuguan is the best at writing lyrics in the world!"
"Liu Jiuguan?"
"Exactly!"
"Is he willing to lead the horse for Zhang Haohao?"
"is not that right?"
"Look, Zhang Haohao is here!"
"Come on, come on, why is she so beautiful?"
"Yes, she is so beautiful!"
Zhang Haohao was riding a pure white tall horse while cruising the Imperial Street. Her chin was slightly raised, her eyebrows were smiling, and her face was proud of the scenery. On the street, Song Yinzhang looked up and happened to see Zhang Haohao, who was enjoying the infinite scenery among thousands of people.
Song Yinzhang was shocked as she smiled brightly at the people who were watching, and Song Yinzhang was greatly shocked. She did not expect that the musicians in Tokyo were not discriminated against, but were also so popular. She looked at Zhang Haohao's infinite scenery infatuatedly.
, until she disappears!
At Shuangxi Tower, Zhang Haohao finished his tour of the imperial street. When he came back, he put aside the elegant posture he had maintained when he was cruising the imperial street and said:
"I'm so exhausted!"
As she said that, she sighed and gently twisted her waist to stretch her muscles. For a moment, she was filled with joy. Lu Wu, who was picking her up to take her back to Shuangxi Building, was stunned. At this time, people surrounding her
All the maids around them turned around and congratulated in unison:
"Congratulations, Miss, on your blessing from heaven!"
Hearing this, the corners of Zhang Haohao's mouth slightly raised, looking at the maids congratulating her, she waved her hands and said with a smile:
"Okay, okay, we're all happy. Let's ask the cashier to get the reward!"
"Thank you, miss!"
The maids immediately dispersed happily. At this time, her personal maid brought a bronze mirror. Zhang Haohao looked around in the mirror, held her head high and smiled:
"am I pretty?"
"You still need to ask? The little one was stunned!"
Lu Wu, who followed Chi Yanei's instructions and went to compliment Zhang Haohao, fanned her and complimented her with a smile.
"Yeah?"
Hearing this, Zhang Haohao looked at himself in the mirror, admiring himself, and asked:
"Then why are you the only one here to pick me up today? Where is your Chi Yanei?"
Lu Wuyi was stunned. His yamen was still accompanying Miss Xiluopei in Yihongyuan. He couldn't tell Zhang Haohao about this. Thinking of this, he quickly explained:
"Well, let's go to our yamen. He also suddenly had something urgent and couldn't make it in time, so he asked me to take you back to Shuangxi Building. But don't worry, when he comes back, there will definitely be a good gift for you!"
"What emergency could he have?"
Zhang Haohao glanced at Lu Wu and asked.
"He Si, it was He Si who was bullied. Our yamen regarded brothers as brothers, so we helped him vent his anger, but the result was."
"What happened?"
After raising his head and taking a look at the curious Zhang Haohao, Lu Wu decided to divert the trouble to the east and said:
"But I didn't expect that the pipa girl named Song actually had the Xiao family's gold medal, which was given to her by Mr. Xiao himself. Our Yamen was beaten to the point where her tongue was broken, but we couldn't really do anything to her. Now
Son, our yamen don’t know where to hide and cry, our yamen are really so pitiful!”
"The pipa girl surnamed Song even had her tongue broken?"
Hearing what Lu Wu said so seriously, Zhang Haohao opened his eyes slightly and said:
"Also, does she really have the gold medal given by Young Master Xiao?"
"Really, absolutely true!"
"Let's go, I want to meet this pipa girl named Song and see what she is capable of. How dare she beat Chi Yanei and let Mr. Xiao give her a gold medal!"
"Okay, sister, that pipa girl named Song lives in the private room of Sanyuan Inn. I have inquired about it. Mr. Xiao also paid for the private room to rent for her!"
"I'm so angry. I want to see how beautiful she is. She actually let Mr. Xiao hide her beauty in the golden house!"
"Sister Haohao, don't be angry. She is not as good-looking as you. In front of you, she is like a chicken in front of Phoenix. She is not worth mentioning at all!"
On the other side, Song Yinzhang and Yin Ping girl came back from shopping. She was still thinking about Zhang Hao Hao, who was riding a tall horse with endless glory. She also wanted to respond to everything like Zhang Hao Hao, and be followed by thousands of people. She and Yin Ping had just walked into Sanyuan Inn and saw Sun Sanniang.
Carrying the food box and walking out, she couldn't help but said excitedly:
"Sister Sanniang, do you know who Yin Ping and I just saw? It was Zhang Haohao, and Liu Jiuguan was holding the horse for her!"
"Who is she?"
Sun Sanniang didn't know Zhang Haohao. Seeing Song Yinzhang so excited, she couldn't help but ask.
"She is from Tokyo Jiabo"
"Forget it, you better wait until I come back!"
Before Song Yinzhang could finish speaking, Sun Sanniang hurriedly interrupted her and said:
"It's all my fault. When they made flower dumplings just now, when they praised me, I couldn't help but make a few more tea fruits, which wasted time. Pan'er and the others are still waiting for me at the door of Ouyang Xu's house. I'll go
Send them food, and you and Yin Ping should go back and rest first!"
"Sister Sanniang, Yin Ping and I will go with you!"
"No, I can walk faster by myself. You two can go back and rest!"
"Oh well!"
After Sun Sanniang left, Song Yinzhang and Yin Ping girl returned to the room. Perhaps they were tired from shopping, and Yin Ping girl fell on the bed and went to sleep. However, Song Yinzhang could not calm down and thought about the infinite glory among those thousands of people.
Zhang Haohao couldn't help but think that she was also the most famous pipa master in Jiangnan. She wondered if she could make her own name in Tokyo like Zhang Haohao. When she thought of this, her heart surged and she couldn't sit still.
Unable to stand still, she picked up her Guyue Pipa and walked to the backyard of the inn. The environment there was quiet and she wanted to practice her Pipa skills to avoid getting rusty.
Near the Sanyuan Inn, Lu Wu took Zhang Haohao and her personal maid to the stone arch bridge in front of the Sanyuan Inn, stopped and said:
"Good sister, the Sanyuan Inn is right in front of you. I won't go with you if I have something else to do!"
As he said this, he put on a smile and wanted to turn around and leave. Zhang Haohao couldn't help but rolled his eyes at him and said:
"Look at how cowardly you are, just go away and I won't make it difficult for you!"
"Then I'm leaving, dear sister, remember to keep it a secret for me!"
"knew!"
After Lu Wu escaped, Zhang Haohao and her personal maid continued to walk towards the Sanyuan Inn in front. She slightly picked up Caiyi's skirt and walked onto the stone arch bridge, saying angrily:
"I want to see what Song Yinzhang looks like!"
Walking into the inn, she suddenly heard the sound of pipa, like big beads and small beads rolling down a jade plate. Zhang Haohao couldn't help but be stunned. What a beautiful pipa sound. She followed the beautiful pipa sound into the backyard of the inn and saw a beautiful and pitiful girl.
The woman was sitting on a stone chair under the pavilion, holding a pipa in her arms, gently twirling it and playing it slowly. Although she had never met each other, she only took one look and knew that the pitiful woman in front of her must be Song Yinzhang.
, the one who beat up Chi Yanei and asked Mr. Xiao to give her a gold medal!
After the song ended, Zhang Haohao walked up to Song Yinzhang with his personal maid. Before she could speak, Song Yinzhang was stunned for a moment, and then said excitedly:
"You are Zhang Haohao! Why are you here?"
Looking at the pitiful Song Yinzhang, Zhang Haohao slightly raised his chin and said proudly:
"Are you Song Yinzhang?"
"Hmm~~"
Song Yinzhang held Gu Yue Pipa in his arms and nodded slightly. Seeing that she looked so soft and frail, she really didn't look like a little lady who would bully others. Zhang Haohao couldn't help but walked up to her and reached out to touch her gently.
His face expressed sincere admiration:
"I feel pity for you, let alone a stupid slave!"
Without much communication, Song Yinzhang watched Zhang Haohao, who was riding a majestic horse, and Zhang Haohao also listened to Song Yinzhang's superb pipa music. For a while, they both felt sympathy for each other.
Two charming beauties stood together, especially one of them was the courtesan Zhang Haohao, who was famous in Tokyo. The guests in the inn all ran out to watch the fun. There were so many people and Zhang Haohao invited Song Yinzhang to have sex with him.
On the painting boat of Shuangxi Tower, the two of them visited the Yuhe River together and chatted briefly.
On the bow of the boat, Song Yinzhang played the pipa, and Zhang Haohao sang in harmony with the sound of her pipa. For a while, the singing became clearer and clearer, and the music was sonorous. The coordination was perfect. The people on both sides of the river were all fascinated by it.
Ru Zui, looking at the young ladies on the boat from a distance, I wish I could go to the boat in Shuangxi Tower to see the two ladies up close. If I am lucky enough to kiss Fangze, that would be even better!
When the music ended, amidst the applause of the people on both sides of the Yuhe River, Zhang Haohao and Song Yinzhang exchanged blessings, looked at each other and smiled, then walked into the painting boat, drank tea and chatted, Zhang Haohao sincerely praised:
"I have always been proud of myself and thought that my singing voice was the best in the world, but I didn't expect that compared with my sister's pipa, it is far inferior!"
Hearing this, Song Yinzhang looked at Zhang Hao with admiration and said with a smile:
"I'm just a local girl from the Jiangnan countryside. How can I compare to one-tenth of your level? I saw you on the Royal Street, and your scenery and demeanor were just like those of a god!"
"No, my sister is both talented and beautiful. She is a beauty that is rarely seen in life!"
Looking at Song Yinzhang, Zhang Haohao praised:
"If a local girl can make Mr. Xiao and Chi Yanei dizzy, wouldn't all Tokyo ladies like me become pickles?"
"Hey sister, that's not what I meant!"
Seeing Zhang Haohao comparing himself to pickles, Song Yinzhang hurriedly explained. After that, she looked at Zhang Haohao and asked:
"Sister Haohao, do you also know Fanlang and Chi Yanei?"
"Fanlang?"
Seeing that Song Yinzhang called Xiao Fan so kindly, Zhang Haohao was stunned for a moment and then said with a smile:
"Of course I know you. To be fair to my sister, I went to you with the intention of giving you a lesson so that I could vent my anger on Chi Yanei. I heard that you bullied Chi Yanei with the gold medal given by Mr. Xiao, and even
His tongue was broken?"
"That's not the case!"
Song Yinzhang hurriedly explained:
"He snatched my pipa and wanted to belittle me, so I beat him. He also said that I was a young lady from Goulan, not a lady. He was really bad. Later, my sister asked Fanlang to be transferred to her.
He was scared away after he took out the gold medal given to me!"
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Song Yinzhang talking about the young lady in the hook bar, Zhang Haohao said in confusion:
"We are really all in a happy place, right?"
"But he can't talk about me in front of so many people. Isn't that deliberately disgusting?"
Song Yinzhang was still a little angry and said, seeing her like this, Zhang Hao shook his head and said with a smile:
"Sister, are you overthinking it? He hangs out in Goulan all day long, and often comes to Shuangxi Building to please me. Even his own mother married a good man, so how could he use this to disgust you?
?”
"He really doesn't look down on me?"
"Sister, why do I feel like you can't hold your head up whenever you mention the music studio?"
Seemingly aware of Song Yinzhang's inferiority complex, Zhang Haohao stood up, walked to Song Yinzhang, stretched out his hand to straighten Song Yinzhang's waist, then raised her chin and smiled:
"We are people who rely on our own ability to eat the royal food. Straighten your waist, straighten your back, and lift your chin!"
"After all, Coca-Cola is a lowly person, right?"
"What's wrong with the humble status?"
Hearing this, Zhang Haohao raised his chin slightly and said proudly:
"On weekdays, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking. The literati are holding them, and the high-ranking officials and nobles are respecting you. You don't need to be vulgar like ordinary market ladies, nor do you need to be as restrained as a boudoir daughter, wearing gold and silver all day long.
Silver, how can you call your slaves and maidservants any worse than those ordinary people who rise to the top?
There are people who have been officials all their lives and have never even seen an official. But as for me, I am only twenty-three years old, and the official and my wife have praised me twice, twice!"
