Tuo Jinglie actually spoke at this critical moment. Jian Xiao did not retract her stepped leg, but calmly stepped out with the other foot. She turned around and smiled, "You wake up? I think it's getting late.
, I want them to send some food.”
Tuo Jinglie squinted his eyes and looked at the woman who was telling lies without blushing with interest, "Don't you want to run away?"
"How could it be?" Jian Xiao pretended to be stupid, and just as a boy was bringing the food, Jian Xiao let him in, "Look, isn't this?"
"This is what I ordered when I came up." Tuo Jinglie wanted to see what other tricks she would come up with.
"Really? Then we really have a good understanding of each other!" Jian Xiao cursed secretly in her heart. This bastard has made it clear that he is pretending to be asleep just to see the joke. He is an evil cat catching mice. I don't want to be fooled.
"Then put the food on the table!" Tuo Jinglie sat up from the bed and said leisurely
"Whoever eats it gets it," Jian Xiao said angrily. She sat down, picked up the small bowl, picked up the silver chopsticks, and started eating with her head covered.
Tuo Jinglie flashed an imperceptible smile, got down and walked to the dining table, picked up the steamed buns, looked at Jian Xiao who was eating and said, "You play the music well. I used to listen to the music for ten taels of silver, and it wasn't like you."
good"
Using money to measure art, how can you pretend to be a literary and artistic youth? Jian Xiao thought to herself, ten taels of silver for a song? Jian Xiao's eating speed slowed down, so she can earn dozens of taels by playing a song? Is running away?
Unable to escape, if she could give him the eight hundred taels she redeemed for her life, wouldn't she be free? A smile gradually appeared on Jian Xiao's face
Tuo Jinglie looked at Jian Xiao and knew that she had another evil idea in her mind. Without revealing it, he picked up the bottle of wine on top, tore open his sleeves and poured the wine on it.
Jian Xiao looked up when she heard the sound of running water, "Ah!" she screamed softly. A dazzling red scar appeared in front of Jian Xiao's eyes. Colorless and transparent wine spilled on her arm, turning into blood red and falling to the ground. Jian Xiao frowned and pointed her fingers.
With, "blood..."
"Are you scared?" Tuo Jinglie asked, raising his face.
Jian Xiao has had extremely poor motor skills since she was a child, with scars all over her body. In addition, her mother is a doctor and grew up in a hospital. Although she does not understand medicine, she does know a thing or two about blood. For Jian Xiao, it is not scary, but
Somewhat bloodthirsty
"The wine in Yunyutang is all water wine. It is not stronger than the wine of your people and cannot be disinfected." Jian Xiao said, "it is not as good as spit."
Suddenly, Jian Xiao's cheeks seemed to be clamped by pliers, and her mandible was almost broken. She was forced to raise her head. Tuo Jinglie's blood-stained hands clamped her cheeks hard, leaving a faint smile on her fair face.
Blood stains, his eyes were like sharp swords piercing Jian Xiao
"How do you know I'm not from this country?"
Jian Xiao forced out a sentence through her teeth. It was very vague, but Tuo Jinglie heard clearly. Jian Xiao was saying, "I said you are not from this nation, but I am not saying that you are not from Biga Country!"
Tuo Jinglie let go, and the pain in his arm surged to the top of his head. The severe pain made him lose his judgment, and this move did not tell Jian Xiao his identity.
Jian Xiao rubbed her face and said angrily, "You have such a strong sense of national honor?" She knew that she had touched the most sensitive part of Tuo Jinglie, and she had to make a joke out of it, "But someone has to say
I'm a traitor, and I'll do it too." She saw Tuo Jinglie's shaking arms, "It hurts? I'll help you."
"No need, men and women cannot be intimate." Tuo Jinglie regained his coldness.
"Damn! Are you asking me to kiss you now? Which one tied me to the bed the first time they met me? Which one..." Jian Xiao wanted to say something about occupying her lips, but she blushed and did not continue.
He just took Tuo Jinglie's arm and dipped his silk scarf in the wine, "In our place, this is called helping others."
"Where is your place? Yunyu Hall?"
"Bah! Girl, am I like that kind of person?" Jian Xiao originally wanted to explain, but she thought it would be a shame to try so hard and wiped the wound hard, "You don't know even if I tell you."
The alcohol penetrated into the skin, and the pain immediately came up. Even a tough guy like Tuo Jinglie couldn't help but frown. He might as well imitate Guan Gong and scrape the bones to heal the wounds.
"How do you know I'm not from that...ethnic group?" Tuo Jinglie thought about the words Jian Xiao once used.
"You look like someone from the Western Region, and your last name is weird. I just guessed it casually," Jian Xiao said.
Jian Xiao used a silk scarf to wipe the last grain of sand out of the wound, "Wrap it for you?"
"No need, it's just a minor injury." Tuo Jinglie put down his sleeves, took a few bites of food, and looked at Jian Xiao
This woman was probably frightened by what she did to her just now, but Jian Xiao still picked up the food with her chopsticks, looking like she was fine. She is such a wonderful person, Tuo Jinglie thought.
How could he know what Jian Xiao was thinking?
Every night, Tuo Jinglie would leave Yunyutang. As for what to do, Jian Xiao didn't know and didn't want to know. In her eyes, if Tuo Jinglie really stayed, neither of them knew how to rest, so it was really good.
Tuo Jinglie just came out of the drunken flower hood that day, and Jian Xiao came out soon after. It was still evening, and the girls were all getting dressed up in their rooms and getting ready to welcome the guests, but the guests were still on the way.
Jian Xiao walked up the stairs to the third floor and found a large room with "Peony" written on it. Everyone loved peonies and became rich, so the madam was not surprised.
She knocked on the door, "Mom, I'm Jian Xiao!"
There was no response from the room, is it possible? Jian Xiao paused for a while, and just as she was about to turn around and leave, she heard the madam's voice, "Come in."
Jian Xiao opened the door. The rich sandalwood smell made people feel dizzy. There was a book desk and several ink paintings hung elegantly in the room. A pink curtain separated the room. The madam was wearing gauze and shaking her fan.
She walked out of the curtain. Although her face was rosy, she had no makeup and her hair could be seen to be a bit messy. "Jian Xiao disturbed her mother from washing up."
"No! No! Miss Jian, sit down quickly, what's the matter?" Ever since Xi'er called herself Jian Xiao, the madam changed her name to her as his money tree. Tuo Jinglie spent a lot of money to provide for her, so naturally he couldn't
neglect
"How do I play the piano?" Jian Xiao asked
"That's a fairy song in the world. Who doesn't know that Xi'er, the courtesan of Yunyutang, has two talents: the color is perfect, and the piano is perfect." This is not a lie. Before Jian Xiao came, Xi'er played a piece of music in the evening, and a reward was enough.
All Yunyutang’s expenses for the day were spent, so the madam gave Jian Xiao special treatment.
"What if I said I want to play a few songs every night now?"
"To the guests?" The old bustard's expression changed drastically, "No, Miss Jian and Mr. Tuo have agreed that you can only accompany him. If he finds out..."
"I only play music in the hall. I don't show my face or accompany guests. I play three songs every night. After three songs, I leave. If he doesn't play, I won't give him a reward."
