Yin Le opened his eyes, stood up slowly, walked to the candlestick, lit the candle, and said to the old man: "Look behind you!"
The old man turned around suddenly, his gray eyes suddenly lit up. He stretched out his hand and touched her back. A woman appeared where he touched.
"Xunxiu!" the old man called out warmly, without being very excited, as if he was calling his wife home after a day of work, with such a warm and plain name.
"Master!" Wen Xunxiu stood quietly, with a soft smile on her face, looking kind and gentle under the candlelight.
Yin Le withdrew and sat on the stone steps at the door.
The housekeeper handed her a small hand-warming stove and said respectfully: "Fifth Grandma, it's cold here, why not go sit in the Nuan Pavilion!"
Yin Le shook his head, "No, I'll stay here."
Perhaps the housekeeper also knew what happened just now. The housekeeper has been with Lao Dangzi for many years, and he knows what the old man values in his heart.
The night wind is raging, and the leaves on the branches have fallen off. Only the two pine trees in front of the door are still green. The wind lanterns are hung on the corridor, emitting dim light. The houses are stacked on top of each other, like undulating mountains, lying quietly in the dark night.
With.
During a cup of tea, Yin Le stood up and pushed the door open.
Wen Xunxiu has left. The old man is sitting in the rocking chair with a sweet smile like a young boy. When he sees Yin Le, he has a warm smile on his face, "Your grandma is gone!"
Yin Le sat next to him, "Yeah, I know!"
The old man took Yin Le's hand and said: "She said she had been waiting for me. I told her to let her wait a little longer. I won't worry if these people behind her are not properly arranged."
Yin Le smiled, "Those who are destined to meet will always meet, so don't be impatient."
"Well, go ahead, I'm tired too." The old man slowly closed his eyes, but there was still a satisfied smile at the corner of his mouth.
Yin Le got the quilt, covered him with it, pressed the corner of the quilt, then got up and went out.
Back in the house, Shoutou was still awake and was soaking his feet in the side hall. When he saw Yin Le coming back, he quickly said to Xiaoxiang: "Xiaoxiang, sister is back. Bring tea quickly."
Xiaoxiang smiled and said, "Okay, I know Fifth Master is nervous about Fifth Grandma."
Yin Le glanced at Shou Tou, sat next to him, and asked softly: "Why are you still not sleeping?"
Shou Tou showed an innocent smile, "I'm waiting for you, sister!"
Wait, this word is so nice. The person who is waited for is happy, but the one who is waiting is so hard!
She rubbed Shou Tou's hair and said softly: "Let me wash it for you!" She squatted down, put her hands into the warm water, and rubbed Shou Tou's feet. Shou Tou had been soaked for a long time, and her skin was a little wrinkled.
, Yin Le had never served him so carefully before, so he felt very warm.
"Sister, I want to be with you forever!" Shoutou suddenly looked at Yin Ledao.
Yin Le took a towel, dried Shou Tou's feet, and said with a smile: "Yeah!"
She has lost too many things in her life, and she doesn't want to let go of what she has now.
After coaxing Shou Tou to sleep, Yin Le sat on the imperial concubine's couch by the window in a daze. The room was very quiet, and Shou Tou's breathing could be heard clearly. She had only just begun her life, and the road ahead might be difficult. She would be on the road.
She lost more things. Decades later, these people around her would no longer be by her side. She suddenly felt a sting in her heart.
After Liu Yanxiang escaped, Yin Le wanted to find someone to take her place.
She also observed Liu An for a period of time and decided to entrust Liu An with an important task. That day she found Liu An and told him about the current situation. After experiencing so many things, some of Liu An's previous dissatisfaction with Yin Le disappeared.
. Now he fully believes that Yin Le can make Longxing reach a higher level.
When he heard that Yin Le planned to let him manage three stores by himself, he was very happy and made an oath on the spot to live up to Yin Le's trust. Yin Le knew that his temperament was not practical and steady enough, so he gave him a few more words to let him manage three stores.
He had to communicate with Liu Qin and Liu Mian on all matters, big or small.
Now that the work has been assigned, Yin Le has a lot of free time. She also has more time to go to Happy House. Although Happy House is a brothel, as Yin Le said before, the girls in Happy House are not prostitutes.
Moreover, as a high-end club, the fees are very high, so those who can go in and spend money are either rich or expensive.
Moreover, fund-raising events have been held here, and the Prince Regent has also attended. Playing here has become a status symbol.
There are two oirans in Happy House, one is named Sisi and the other is called Luoxi. Both of them were transferred from the Yufeng Sect. They are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, so they are called by many guests every night. Since they are oirans
, are naturally very expensive, so those who can get close to them are either political figures or wealthy people.
On this day, Lao Madam Lu's mother hurriedly went to Sisi's room. As soon as she opened the door, she said, "Sisi, hurry up and dress up. We have distinguished guests tonight."
Sisi had just woken up not long ago, her hair hadn't been combed yet, and her expression was lazy. She raised her eyes and glanced at Lu's mother, and said, "We only have guests tonight. It's still early. Let's wait a while."
"Oh, my good girl, it means you are a distinguished guest, so you can't neglect me. Hurry up." She turned around and shouted, "Yuyu, hurry up and fetch water for the girl to freshen up."
A cute girl rushed in from the door. She was very pretty and about thirteen or fourteen years old. She responded: "Okay, I'll go right away!"
Sisi stood up lazily and asked, "Who is the guest tonight? Mom is so nervous!"
Mother Lu said while packing her things: "I don't know, the master said something very important. You must not offend me."
"Master's order?" Sisi suddenly straightened up after hearing what Mother Lu said, "Then, I'll be tighter here. Okay, Mother Lu, go and do your work."
Two girls came in to dress up Sisi.
Half an hour later, Sisi was wearing a honey-colored brocade embroidered cloud pattern dress, and a pink and purple feather satin cloak embroidered with large peonies. She walked out of the room with exquisite makeup. At that time, the Happy Building had not yet opened for business.
.
There are several girls here, all of whom came from the Yufeng Sect. Their main tasks are to inquire about information and infiltrate political figures. Of course, there are also a large number of girls who come here for money and are real Goulan girls. Because of their performing arts
They do not sell their bodies, so they have very high requirements for the girls. In addition to outstanding appearance, they must be proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. They also learned other skills, such as cooking tea, mixing wine, acrobatic singing and dancing, to cater to customers with various requirements.
As for Mama Lu, she is also a member of the Yufeng Cult. She is about thirty-one or twelve years old. She wears heavy makeup every day and is very charming. She is the busiest person every night, shuttling between girls and guests with ease.
But, who is tonight’s guest? It was the owner who ordered to be treated with caution and yet made Lu’s mother so nervous. Everyone was a little excited, wanting to know the origin of this distinguished guest.
