Qingfeng Tower is such a place. It is noon, and many women who have gotten up late are either washing themselves in the building or practicing piano under the eaves. The fragrance of heaven in the garden is leaning against the railing of the pavilion. Sitting in front of her is
A woman slightly older than myself.【】
"Sister Yunxiang..."
"Sister Tianxiang, please call me Sister Ying... I have returned to my own name, Ren Yingying..." Ren Yingying smiled slightly, she had been out of Qingfeng Tower for some time.
"Yes, more than a year has passed in the blink of an eye. Time flies so fast...but you never come to me..."
"Good sister, after leaving here, I will never want to come back again... If you hadn't sent a message saying that I was seriously ill, I still wouldn't have come back... But you are in good spirits..."
"I am suffering from heart disease, which is deep in my bones. There is no way to cure it...it is already curable...of course I am seriously ill..."
"Haha... You said it so pitifully that even my sister feels heartbroken. Those benefactors, if they were like you, they would just want to marry you home..."
"Sister made fun of my little sister again..."
"If you are unhappy, just follow my example and come out... Mom is kind-hearted, so she may not disapprove..."
"My younger sister doesn't have as much courage as my elder sister. She gave up all her years of savings and left home, but how did she make a living? Is she like her elder sister who goes to the market to sell steamed buns?"
"..."
"I'm afraid that when I can't survive, I can only find a rich family to marry myself, or return to my old business and put a price tag on myself...Rather than go to that point, it's better to stay here, and
Mom takes care of me so that no one will bully me too much..."
Ren Yingying looked confused and Tianxiang didn't know what to say. The two of them had similar piano skills and similar looks. She went to compete for the oiran, but she would rather listen in silence. Her mother was kind-hearted and saw that she didn't like this very much.
On the occasion, he allowed her to purify herself and leave the house, and she has been there for more than a year now.
The two of them are like sisters, and when they leave, she will be alone. It's not that she doesn't want to leave here, but as a courtesan, even if her mother is willing to let her go, she can't leave. What's more, no matter how kind-hearted her mother is, she won't.
Let her go.
"Mom said, we will probably have to pick up guests next year..." Tianxiang said quietly, looking at the water outside the pavilion, her voice couldn't help but lower.
Selling one's art but not one's body is just a joke in a brothel. If the customers are willing to spend money, there is no love that cannot be bought in a brothel.
More than a year has passed since the triennial Oiran election. By the end of next year, the Oiran will have to be replaced. Before the new Oiran comes out, the old Oiran can probably still be sold at a good price, and that is hers.
Deadline.
After selling out on the first night, she could only be regarded as a popular star. If she wants to have the peaceful state of mind now, I'm afraid she won't be able to.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I haven't heard my sister sing for a long time. I remember that my sister taught me how to play the piano. Today I will sing the song 'Magpie Bridge Immortal' to my sister, which made her sick to the point of being sick...
"
"I haven't sung for a long time. I'm afraid I won't be able to sing anymore, and I won't be interested in singing..."
"Haha, sister, I'm afraid I haven't heard the song Magpie Bridge Immortal, otherwise why wouldn't I be interested in singing it?"
"Oh? Which Magpie Bridge Immortal?"
"As expected, I don't know...but it's a new love poem from the Qixi Festival Poetry Festival...I'll read it to you first..." Tianxiang read the poem that she had already memorized.
After hearing this word, Ren Yingying's eyes sparkled. After thinking about it for a long time, she said, "It is indeed a good word. If it is sung, it will definitely sound good."
So he played the piano in the pavilion and played for a while. The sound of the piano was clear and sweet, and the singing was meandering and continuous. It turned out that the singing was very good. It attracted many women in the distance to look into the pavilion, and someone said lightly, "It seems to be Sister Yunxiang's."
The voice is indeed so moving..."
After stroking the song, Tianxiang stroked her palms and said with a smile, "Sister is my sister, I feel ashamed..."
Ren Yingying smiled and said, "I don't know who wrote this word, Duandi is excellent..."
"Speaking of which, you also know this person... he is Su San who often came to pester you last year!"
"Ah...is it him?"
"I'm not sure whether it was him, but it really came from his hands. I'm afraid no one knows who did it... I guess it was not him."
Two figures immediately appeared in Ren Yingying's mind; one was Su San, who was previously arrogant, and the other was Su San, who had recently been calm and calm. The two figures gradually overlapped... Ren Yingying shook her head towards Tianxiang.
He shook his head and said, "Actually, it's not necessarily that he didn't do it..."
"Ah...Does sister think that it was really his fault?"
Of course, Ren Yingying couldn't be sure, but her feeling told her: Even if this word was really made by him, she wouldn't be too surprised, at least not as surprised as Tianxiang... Seeing that Ren Yingying was just silently thinking, Tianxiang thought it was nonsense.
She thought about it and stopped saying this. She took out a sachet from her pocket and handed it to Ren Yingying and said, "There is some silver here. Sister, please accept it. If it is not enough, just come and ask sister for it..."
Ren Yingying held the sachet in Tianxiang's hand and was stunned for a while, then gently shook her head at Tianxiang.
"I still have some savings there, and I am now running a small business, which will gradually get better. You know, I will not accept this money..."
When Tianxiang was about to persuade, Ren Yingying stood up and said, "It's getting late, I should go back. Sister, take a good rest. When you feel unhappy, just rest for a few more days. Mom, for the sake of your money tree,
I won’t be too restrictive about you…”
"Sister, please come to me more..."
"Um……"
The two said goodbye reluctantly, and Ren Yingying walked out of Qingfeng Tower and walked to her residence.
Su San, Sun Ningyuan? Magpie Bridge Immortal, is it really written by the person who was slapped by me some time ago... He also said that there is a skill he wants to teach me, but I don't know if it is true or not... Reply
When she got home, she saw that the rented house was empty. She gritted her teeth and thought to herself, "I can't say it, but I have to give it a try... I have to find a way to survive..."
