In the second month of the lunar calendar, the spring scenery is getting stronger. On the banks of the Qinhuai River, the catkins are dancing among the music on both sides of the river.
Sitting in a restaurant on a busy street in the early morning, you can often see pedestrians coming and going at Jixiang Street not far away. Jixiang Street is a famous place where brothels gather in Jiangning. During this time, you can see many people staying overnight.
The men came out from there, some were still arranging their clothes on the road, and some looked more hurried, probably because they had something to do, so they kept their clothes on and ran all the way. Of course, there were not many of them.
In these days, having sex with prostitutes is a quite normal thing after all. Some scholars and students greet their friends on the street in high spirits, and then talk about which girl they had sex with last night, and some
He looks like a decent gentleman, elegant and elegant, but there are not many clues about him.
"Oh, Xiaochan, look at that guy. He also bought meat porridge and carried it. This guy plans to take it back to feed his wife and children... He's quite considerate of his family."
"That young master? It doesn't look like it. Uncle, you can't say that to someone just because they come from that way."
"You don't understand. Although they all look similar on the surface, there is still a certain difference in the expressions and complexions of men who sleep at home at night and men who sleep outside." Ning Yi sat in front of the window on the second floor and put a silver
The silk roll was thrown into his mouth.
"Does my uncle know how to read? Then how about teaching Xiaochan some lessons?"
"What do you want to do?"
"From now on, if my uncle stays in the brothel and doesn't go home, Xiaochan will be able to tell."
"Ah."
The reason why I went to the restaurant out of boredom these two days to see who stayed up late at night was mainly because I found that the breakfast in this restaurant was delicious. Xiaochan had nothing to do today, so she followed him out. At this time, the two of them were sitting here.
Pointing in front of the building window, I often make surprising discoveries.
"Uncle, look, that old man also came out of a brothel."
"How did you tell?"
"Because the girl in the window of the small building on the side is still waving to him..."
"It's so enviable to be old and strong..."
"My uncle is not envious. I would never go to a place like this."
The master and servant were chatting and joking like this, and at this time there were many people in the restaurant. A few scholars dressed up, and Ning Yi recognized that they were the men who had stayed away all night, and they sat at a table on the left.
Her clothes were neat and tidy, and she was in good spirits. She described the scene last night with poems and occasionally burst into laughter. When Xiao Chan heard those poems, she would often look back carefully and then turn around with a blushing face.
At this time, these talented scholars were talking about some romantic affairs, and they seemed to be frivolous. After a while, someone would lower their voices: "Hey, tell me, Miss Shishi is here this time. How many of us are here?"
Is there a chance to meet him?"
"I heard that Master Li is just visiting friends and does not entertain guests. I'm afraid it's a rare sight."
"Say so."
"I'm afraid I'm meeting those big shots too."
"That's true, but Cao Guan, Liu Qingdi and others will probably be able to meet each other."
"Brother Ji Chang has a long history in his family, and his uncle is an official in the government office. I'm afraid we can see him."
"Haha, just joking, but when Gu Yanzhen came back last year, he said he had met Master Li when he was in Tokyo. But I am not so lucky."
"I wonder how Master Li, who is known as the most famous prostitute in the capital, compares with Qilan, Luo Miaomiao and others from Jiangning..."
"I'm afraid Qilan and the others are not as good as me. Moreover, I feel that Master Li really chose the right time to visit his friends this time. Think about it, the oiran Qilan now was deliberately favored by the Puyang family. Although the artist is
The performance is also amazing, but after all, there is too much bronze smell. Luo Miaomiao is more than gorgeous, but actually not grand enough. In the past, Feng Xiaojing was called the orchid in the empty valley, but... alas, she was forced to jump off the building by Chen Yong, and now she is also
has fallen silent, and the lively and pure Yuan Jin'er is said to have become a good person again, and two of the four brothels have gone away. Now if Qilan and Luo Miaomiao were to face people like Li Shishi, they would not be able to control the situation. Do you think it would be possible?
Could it be that Mr. Li deliberately chose this time to come here, and although he said he was just visiting friends, in fact, he was provoking?"
"...If this is really the case, we and the Jiangning scholars must work together and not let her take advantage of her."
"Perhaps you are thinking too much..."
Although the tone of the conversation over there was that of talking about quite confidential matters, in fact the tone of the voice did not decrease. Ning Yi became somewhat interested when he heard the names Li Shishi and Gu Yanzhen.
Xiaochan saw his expression and listened for a while: "Uncle, uncle, Master Li, come here. If you want to see him, can you see him?"
Ning Yi was stunned: "I don't know her, uh... have you heard about her coming?"
"Well, I heard about it a few days ago." Xiaochan nodded, "It was said that Ms. Li came here to visit friends and relax. It was originally a secret operation, but somehow it spread, and the lady also knew it.
I talked about this yesterday when I was chatting with the wife of the shopkeeper of Xingqingfang. The lady said: "If you want to see me, you can probably see me. But you also know that my husband's temperament is different from others, so for the sake of fame, he can do it."
He has little interest in getting close to the oiran. He often says that this romantic talent is just a result of speculation. Oh, the so-called speculation is just a joke.'"
She imitated Su Tan'er's tone, but the pride in her words was beyond words. It's not that our uncle can't go, it's just that he doesn't care. Ning Yi laughed, Xiaochan thought for a while, and then said: "Actually, if my uncle wants to
If you go, Xiaochan thinks it would be good to participate in these things sometimes, and the lady also said so."
Ning Yi smiled and said: "Is this a mistake? If I nod, it will definitely be miserable."
"No, really." Xiao Chan shook her head vigorously, "My uncle usually doesn't care about those women at all. After my uncle became famous, the young lady and Xiao Chan were also very happy, although my uncle said that these gatherings were just a joke.
, compliment each other, but everyone will be very happy if they compliment each other together. My uncle will participate in it, write a poem or two to scare those people, and then be happy for a while. It is quite interesting. In fact, Xiao Chan is like this too,
If someone praises Xiaochan for being great, Xiaochan will also be very happy."
Xiaochan's words are not pretentious. Although as a woman at home, she will definitely not be happy to see her man hooking up outside, but the times are like this, it is also a matter of degree. On weekdays, these gangs
Gathering together of talented people and beautiful ladies can be regarded as an entertainment activity promoted by society. As Xiaochan said, if everyone praises each other, the parties involved will also feel happy.
If you participate in this kind of thing too much and are really enthusiastic about those famous prostitutes, Su Tan'er, Xiaochan and others will certainly be unhappy, but if Ning Yi doesn't participate at all, at this time, people like Su Tan'er will
They feel that they seem to have affected Ning Yi's way of happiness. They even feel that Ning Yi occasionally participates once or twice. Only when he shows off his poems can he attract everyone's attention. The love of an oiran is a truly healthy lifestyle. In short, they understand that Ning Yi and
It's better to wait until the oiran has nothing to do with her. If Ning Yi becomes famous, his family is actually quite vain.
Ning Yi thought for a while, laughed for a while, and then said: "Xiao Chan is really amazing." He reached out and touched her head, and Xiao Chan laughed "hehe".
"In this case, do you really not want to see that Miss Li?"
"Your uncle is too charming. What if she falls in love with me and refuses to leave Jiangning while crying..."
"Then..." Xiaochan lowered her head, her face flushed, "Then, wait until my uncle accepts Chan'er before letting her in..." Her voice was as thin as a mosquito. If most people heard Ning Yi's boast,
, he had to laugh and ridicule, saying that he felt good about himself. Xiaochan's reaction was beyond his expectation. Ning Yi was stunned, and then he had to shake his head and smile, but he couldn't help but think about Li Shishi and Yunzhu Jin'er.
In comparison, which one is higher and which one is lower?
His comparison was not because of his status as a famous prostitute. It was actually because Master Li was so famous and must have a strong foundation in singing, dancing, lyrics, and music. Ning Yi was not originally very interested in ancient singing, dancing, and music, but since he listened to Yunzhu's
After playing and singing, my outlook changed greatly, and I realized that good people are good after all. Of course, this was also because after Yunzhu listened to the style of music he taught, his singing performance also changed, and the music was flattering.
Yuan Jin'er didn't want to perform dancing in front of him. After all, she was a good person and felt that there weren't many worthy audiences. This kind of thing would have the feeling of trying to please this stinky man like him. But judging from the few times she had seen singing and dancing, after all,
It is still pleasing to the eye. It is said that when Ning Yi is not around, she will jump around in front of Yunzhu to entertain herself. Because she is in a cheerful mood and bursts of inspiration, she will also perform new dances for Yunzhu to see from time to time. Sometimes Jin'er leaves, and Yunzhu
Zhu then started talking with a smile and imitated it.
The two have similar skills. Yunzhu is very good at playing musical instruments and singing, but she is not much different from Yuan Jin'er in dancing. However, there is no one to play music when she dances, so Ning Yi can only see the graceful rhythm of her body.
, if she performs more, Yuan Jin'er will often run back and interrupt loudly, protesting that Yunzhu uses her dance to please her lover, which is a shameful act of favoring sex over friends. In fact, Yunzhu is gentle and quiet, while Jin'er
They are lively and active, and even if they perform the same dance, they are actually somewhat different.
Several scholars at the table here were still talking about Master Li. On the other side, three men came up from the stairs. Under the guidance of the waiter, they sat down next to them. All three of them were wearing short clothes.
Each of them was carrying a weapon, and one of them was actually wounded. It seemed that they were all people in the world. After sitting down, they ordered some food.
"Damn it, yesterday dozens of people set up an ambush, but those Liao people still managed to escape. What a bad luck!"
"I can't run away. Mr. Cheng of the Hundred Swords Alliance has personally led his people to chase him and laid a dragnet. The government is also cooperating. These Liao dogs entered the hinterland of our Central Plains to kill people and assassinate them. If they can still escape unscathed, they will really deceive me.
People."
"But the leader of the Liao people is really powerful. He was able to fight his way out surrounded by many good fighters..."
Hearing the words here, Ning Yi frowned and became concerned...
Get up late and continue to the next chapter.
Probably an old man here passed away yesterday, and today we set up a funeral shed. In the afternoon, we have been singing songs like "Love Sales" and "Sell My Love, Watch Me Leave"... Oh, I am singing the second song at this time.
