Chapter 40 Holding the piano in plain hands

Yu Qiansi frowned and looked at the frightened Lady Li.

"You're talking nonsense! You sluts in the sect are used to referring to black as white! Didn't you say you didn't notice what was going on next to you? Why are you saying so confidently now?"

Xiaomi quickly knelt down on the ground, still flustered, but speaking sincerely.

"You are a humble slave, but you will never harm anyone! That young master, I met the girl when I came here. He was very enthusiastic about the girl at that time, but it was because she had a steward to accompany her.

That's why I didn't follow. Xiaonu stood outside the door just because "

It’s self-evident what to prevent.

"Yes, you are very quick to negotiate the marriage, but the man who is the beauty queen has gone out of Beijing to avoid trouble."

Leaving the capital to avoid trouble? Yu Anning was thoughtful.

At this time, the Li family heard the news and came over. An old nanny looked very charming with a smile on her face.

"Young gentlemen and ladies, I'm really sorry. My young lady felt the cold today and couldn't bear the alcohol, which disturbed you all. The Li family has prepared a small amount of wine to apologize. I also hope that you will not disturb Yaxing for such trivial matters."

The girl from the Li family wanted to argue, but the two nuns quickly stood up, silenced her and left.

The steward of Lingyun Pavilion breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this and signaled for the singing and dancing to continue.

But after all this, who is still thinking about singing and dancing?

Shang Fu came over at some point and didn't dare to enter the house, so he squatted under the window, holding his face in his hands, looking innocent.

"How does Master Jade view this matter?"

Yu Anning rolled her eyes at him: "What's so interesting? Isn't it just something between men and women?"

Shang Fushen retorted: "No, no, even I can see that this girl is not very willing. She keeps saying that she wants to be a straight lady. Besides, based on my attitude towards Zhou Shi

Understand, if he wanted a female companion, how could he fall in love with such a shameless girl?"

Yu Anning snorted: "Speaking of the Li family, the author, I just remembered an old news. The Li family originally took a fancy to Tan Hua Lang, who passed the imperial examination last year. Unfortunately, he is married and would rather die than die.

But then, for some reason, the Tanhua Lang’s first wife died suddenly years ago, and then the Tanhua Lang’s family left Beijing.”

He is mighty and unyielding, but he is also very bloody.

Although the Imperial Examination had been established during the reign of the late Emperor, few of the sons of the gentry looked down upon someone from a poor family. Even if he got the top prize in the examination, it was nothing more than that in their eyes. Although the officials of the Li family were small, they were still gentry no matter how downcast they were. If they were offended

The Li family could only ask themselves to leave Beijing to avoid trouble.

When Shang Fu heard this, he looked at Yu Qian Si again, like a pug smelling the smell of meat.

"Master Yu, what do you think? Is it possible that what happened today was done by Tanhua Lang to avenge his wife?"

Boyi, who was silent on the side, also looked at Yu Qiansi after hearing this.

The lazy woman holding an empty wine glass in front of her is completely different from the dazzling being who easily solved the puzzle yesterday.

Yu Qiansi ignored the sizing eyes around him, raised his eyebrows slightly, and drank the wine in the glass.

I secretly praised: It’s really a good wine.

Fu'er took a deep look out the window, threw down his wine glass, and stood calmly.

It's a pity that the food and wine were too pickled.

"This wine is good. Thank you, Princess, for your hospitality. The government affairs are complicated, so I need to take the first step."

After that, he turned around and left the wing, went straight downstairs and left.

"Sister Yu, where are you going?"

Seeing Yu Qiansi turn around and leave without saying a word, Yu Anning looked confused.

After thinking about it, he looked out the window and asked, "Sister Yu, are you coming tomorrow? There are many lively activities in Lingyun Pavilion during the Flower Festival tomorrow!"

Yu Qiansi waved her hand and left, leaving Yu Anning and Boyi alone with confused faces, as well as a group of onlookers, who were at a loss.

*

The morning clouds are horizontal, and occasionally butterflies flutter away in the clear light.

The early morning in Pingkangfang starts from afternoon.

Even though today is the Flower Festival, the whole capital is bustling with activity. But here, we are still immersed in the remaining night.

"Dong dong dong."

The knock on the door was firm and powerful.

"Who?"

The servant in green yawned and went to answer the door.

While I was wondering: Who could come here so early in the morning to be unhappy? I finally had a sweet dream, and my sisters in the same room were dancing together, so I was woken up.

"Dong dong dong"

The knocking on the door persisted.

"Come on, come on, please hurry up!"

As soon as the door opened, he saw a woman in red standing outside. She was slim and elegant, with a smile on her face but a cold expression.

The servant has served too many guests, greeting them and sending them off every day, and has long since developed a good ability to look at people.

Seeing this woman's good temperament, the curse in her throat was swallowed alive.

He then lost his smile, nodded and bowed and said, "Guest, what are your orders?"

Yu Qiansi threw out a flower card and said: "Come and see Miss Yayin."

The servant caught the flower card and took a closer look. It was Miss Yayin's Thousand Gold Medals.

There are less than ten people in the whole capital who have this card.

The smile became more sincere, and she did not dare to delay at all. After leading Yu Qiansi into the elegant room to rest, she quickly went to the backyard to find someone to call Yayin.

The room was barely clean, and hot tea was provided, but at this time, only high tea was available.

Yuqiansi is not picky about tea.

He opened a window casually, stretched out his hand to bow to the wind, and looked out at Pingkangfang, which was rarely desolate and sleepy. His eyes were dim and leisurely.

I don't know how long it had passed before there was a hurried movement outside the door. Yu Qiansi's eyes moved, and there was still no one on the street. Only the flags of various colors were fluttering in the wind, feebly.

The person outside the door paused for a moment before pushing the door open with a smile.

It was Yayin who we had been seeing for three consecutive days, followed by a distracted little girl holding a pipa.

"Hua An, the owner of the Jade Pavilion, went to bed late last night and kept you waiting for a long time."

After hearing the words "Hua An", she came back to her senses. Today is the Flower Festival.

Yu Qiansi sat in front of the window and did not move. He only nodded slightly and motioned for her to sit down.

Get straight to the point.

"Is it you who did what happened to Lingyung Pavilion yesterday?"

Yayin's hand that was drinking tea trembled slightly, and the tea came out a little, and together with the heat, it was dense and blurred on the table.

When she saw this, she put down the tea cup in her hand, put her hands on her knees, lowered her head and remained silent.

After a long time, he couldn't help but smile and praise: "The Master of the Jade Pavilion is really awesome."

He didn't argue, he just accepted the matter.

Yu Qian frowned and looked at the woman in front of her. Even though someone exposed her face to face, she still remained indifferent, with a smile that was as light and full as clear water and the moon in a pond.

"For that Tanhua Lang?" Yu Qiansi asked, raising an eyebrow.

There was sarcasm in Yayin's eyes, and she slowly pushed the tea in front of Yu Qiansi.

He laughed at himself: "Since he is the beneficiary, it can be considered as doing it for him."

These words surprised Yu Qiansi.

Then he suddenly realized: "Is it for his late wife?"

Yayin glanced at the spring scenery outside the window, reached out and closed the window, blocking out the spring breeze, and closed her eyes to make way for memories.

Yu Qiansi didn't urge him, he just tapped the table with his index finger, and the Yuli Qiankun on his finger made a pleasant sound.

After a long time, Yayin smiled slightly.

"Her name is Suqin, and she is younger than me."

Sure enough, it was, but for some reason Yu Qiansi felt uncomfortable when he heard her calm voice. He lowered his eyes and took a sip of hot tea.

The orange-yellow texture and deep astringency in the mouth add a bit of old-world feeling to the story in Yayin's mouth.

"She is obviously younger than us and not tall, but she likes to be other people's older sister. She always pretends to be young and mature. I am not very talented, so she comes here every night with the piano in my hand and teaches me every step of the way.

I finger it."

Yayin looked down at her knuckled hands, one hand covering the other, and fell into long-lasting memories.

The teacher clearly said that small hands cannot play the pipa. But her plump little hands seemed to be born for the pipa.

Even a broken piano will glow with a different style in her hands.

Her hands can awaken the soul of Pipa.

But for the last time, when I saw these hands that had impressed countless musicians and dancers, they were covered with wounds, and the gaps between the fingers were black. It was unclear whether they were mud or blood.
