The Xisu River is very lively at night. There are about fifty painted boats on the river. They stretch all the way down and there are small boats parked at the ferry. They are specially used to take guests to the painted boats. A trip costs ten cents.
Ten pennies can't last about ten meters, so this is definitely a gold-selling cave.
The larger painting boat here is the same as the Qinlou Chu Pavilion like Shaotou Zui. Guests can come here to buy drunkenness. There are girls playing the piano, poetry and painting, warming up, saying some earthy love words, lamenting life, showing off their charms, and beautiful faces.
, Gentle Country.
As for the small painted boats, such as Chun Niang Meiniang, they are called painted boats, but they are actually better-decorated boats with only one or two girls on them. The guests they usually entertain are not wealthy gentlemen, but mostly literati.
A scholar, a corrupt scholar.
The fee is relatively cheap, but further actions are possible, and of course, money will be paid for further steps.
Chun Niang died, and my mother found a girl to replace Chun Niang, named Liu'er.
King Qi found Liu'er, and his mother was also on the boat. Because the lights were dim and King Qi didn't wear official clothes. After returning to the palace, he changed into a suit of brocade clothes. He looked very rich and handsome, but his mother didn't recognize him.
.
Seeing King Qi's wealthy appearance, he was overjoyed and hurriedly greeted him, calling Liu'er to come out to greet the guests.
King Qi saw that Liu'er was only about sixteen or seventeen years old, and she didn't have any aura of travel. She was wearing a satin jacket and an apricot-colored cloak, and her head was covered with pearls and jade, but she didn't look like an expensive item.
She looked pretty. The eyes under Liu Ye's eyebrows were slightly raised. She stepped forward and smiled charmingly, showing her teeth. "Liu'er of the slave family has met the young master."
King Qi looked at her and said: "Girl, there is no need to be polite, just sit down!"
From the corner of his eye, he saw his mother winking at Liu'er, as if asking her to hold the young master tightly.
The boat was in the river, and as the current pushed it, it swayed slightly. Liu'er seemed to be unsteady, and with a soft cry, she fell to King Qi's side.
She said shyly: "Hey, the slave family couldn't stand for a while and offended the young master. Don't blame me."
When she said, "Young master, don't blame me," her lips were right next to King Qi's ear, her breath was like blue, her bright eyes slowly opened, and the corners of her eyes were a bit lazy, showing her utmost charm.
King Qi supported her and said with clear eyes: "Girl, please sit down."
Nanny naturally left at this time, and a moment later, a woman of seventeen or eighteen years old came in to serve tea.
She dressed relatively plainly, came in steadily, placed tea, melons, fruits and snacks on the table, and asked King Qi softly, "Sir, what are you drinking?"
"Bring a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus." King Qi didn't want to drink too strong wine, so he took out a silver coin from his sleeve pocket and put it on the maid's tea tray.
This ingot of silver weighed twelve ounces. Liu'er and the maid were both startled when they saw it. The maid quickly hid it in her sleeve pocket and said with a smile: "Okay, sir, please wait.
"
King Qi had never been to these places before, so he didn't know the prices. He just thought that if he came to drink wine once, he would probably need this much.
How did he know that it only cost two taels of silver to book this boat for one night, and it also included the following.
After the maid left, King Qi stood up, looked at the small boat, and asked Liu'er, "Can...can I look around? This is my first time here, and I am very curious.
