"Sister Ruoqing, there have been a lot fewer guests here in the past two days." After Li Yi left, the girl named Xiaozhu looked at the sparse guests in the hook bar and said with a sigh.
As the popularity of "Painted Skin" gradually subsided, the number of customers in the hook bar became less and less day by day, and now, it has almost returned to the normal level.
According to their original estimation, this time should be longer, but things did not develop as they expected.
After only one day, the story of "Painted Skin" was circulated everywhere. Although they were not angry, they could not say anything about it.
They are all stories. If Grandpa Sun tells it, other people will naturally tell it too. After hearing a short story like this once, you can almost retell it. It is simply impossible to make a long-term profit from these stories.
Firstly, because the guests were diverted away by other hooks, and secondly, the story was told too many times, so it naturally lost its freshness. There were fewer and fewer guests who had not heard it, and there were no fresh stories to add, so naturally there would be no more.
More people are willing to come.
Wan Ruoqing looked at the several sisters who were performing seriously on the stage, but there were not many people watching in the audience. She sighed softly, with a trace of helplessness on her face.
They are just actors living at the bottom of the industry. Unlike those famous actors who are dependent on high-ranking officials and receive huge rewards for every performance, they can only survive in this way.
Her situation was relatively good. She was quite talented in a certain small circle and her singing skills were pretty good. She and Xiaozhu were not living a comfortable life, but they were barely able to live a tolerable life.
However, in such days, there is nothing worth looking forward to. Perhaps once they are over, the first thing the two people face is the problem of survival.
"That Mr. Li seems to be quite rich." The girl held her chin and said in a low voice.
The shop next door called "Ruyi Fang" is very famous in Qing'an Prefecture. I heard that many rich young ladies like to buy things there, so he will definitely not be short of money.
It's a pity that Sister Qing never accepts the support from those friends, otherwise, their life would be much easier.
But speaking of it, Sister Ruoqing treats that young master differently from others, isn't it?
The girl turned to look at her, a look of surprise gradually appeared on her face, as if she had discovered something terrible.
Isn't the best ending for these actors to be married to a young master like this? Although they cannot become regular wives, even if they are concubines, if they can be treated well by the other party, it is still an excellent destination.
Sister Ruoqing is not only good at singing, she is also talented in poetry. Many talented people have revealed this intention. One named Jiang Zian even pursued her fiercely. However, sister Ruoqing did not agree. It turned out that it was because of her heart.
Belong.
That young master is very kind to others, and he should not treat Sister Ruoqing badly. However, you should be careful about the woman who likes to wield swords. When she climbed the wall, she saw her practicing swordsmanship in the yard. Such a person,
It's definitely not easy to mess with.
If Sister Ruoqing enters his house, she might be bullied by her. That woman is so powerful. Even if she and Sister Ruoqing combined, I'm afraid they won't be her match...
The girl began to feel faintly worried in her heart.
"What are you thinking about?" Wan Ruoqing saw the girl's face changing constantly, sometimes happy and sometimes worried, so she gently tapped her head and asked.
"If sister Ruoqing marries Mr. Li, I'm afraid she has to be careful about that person..." The girl subconsciously expressed her worries.
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wan Ruoqing.
"Don't talk nonsense, Mr. Li is a family man, and he and I are innocent."
"I know, you have an innocent relationship between a man and a woman." The girl curled her lips and said.
He would use such an excuse to lie to himself. If the two of them were innocent, how could they be sent back by him in the middle of the night last time?
Frankly speaking, she still felt that there would be nothing wrong with Sister Ruoqing if she followed him.
"You're so good, Yuzhu, you're asking for a beating, right?"
Wan Ruoqing raised his hand, and the girl hurriedly stood up from her seat, stuck out her tongue, and said: "Sister Ruo Qing, if you're sorry, I can be your matchmaker. I think he likes Sister Ruo Qing too..."
"
"And he said..."
Wan Ruoqing blushed with shame and hurriedly chased after her. The girl screamed and ran away immediately.
…
…
"Li Xianwei's recovery speed far exceeded my expectations." When Dr. Chen from Huichun Hall came for a follow-up consultation, he said with a look of amazement after taking Li Yi's pulse.
It stands to reason that an injury like his last time would take an ordinary person at least several months to heal. Even a physically strong person would need several months to recover to his current level.
At this time, only ten days had passed since he was injured.
This county captain looks like a frail scholar, but his recovery speed is really amazing.
Seeing the way the old man looked at him, as if he was looking at some precious item, and maybe thinking of taking him away for research, Li Yi felt a chill in his heart.
After seeing Dr. Chen off, he did not continue to lie down. He walked around in the yard for a while, did Tai Chi twice, and stretched his muscles.
The scope of his activities in the past few days has been on the road from here to Goulan. He eats more and moves less. I don't know if he has gained a few pounds.
Given his current physical condition, some appropriate exercise would be beneficial and harmless.
Of course, it is limited to walking, doing Tai Chi, etc. More strenuous activities are still not suitable.
Ruyi took Ruyi and Xiaohuan out. No matter in ancient or modern times, shopping is a woman's nature. It is the same for big and small women. Especially when the family is not short of money, the prosperous Qing'an City is a paradise for them.
general existence.
The weather has cooled down, Ruyilu is no longer in production, and Ruyi Fang is temporarily closed. Several girls have returned to the village. With Ruyi and Ruyi here, there is no need to worry about safety issues. Lao Fang only comes here once in a while.
After living in Fucheng for a long time, I am not used to all the inconveniences of cottage life. Perhaps because I am bored at home alone, Ruyi also moved here a few days ago and sleeps in the same room as Xiao Huan Ruyi at night.
Although this makes the room a little crowded, the three girls also came here like this when they were young, so there is nothing unusual about it.
These days, he still goes to Goulan to stay for a while every day. Sometimes he and Ruyi sit in the yard to bask in the sun, watching Liu Ruyi practice the Tai Chi sword skills he just taught her, and correcting her mistakes from time to time.
action.
When she first taught Ruyi Tai Chi, she only watched it twice and was able to perform even better than him. Miss Liu Er's talent may not be that high, but it just gave Li Yi a chance to overcome his master's addiction.
But now they are not here. After Li Yi finished the two sets of boxing techniques, he inadvertently turned his head and saw another familiar head popping up on the opposite wall.
"The story of "Ying Ning" is not over yet." The girl was lying on the wall, watching him finish those strange actions, and looked over before she spoke.
Li Yi hadn't seen her climbing the wall for several days, and he happened to have someone to relieve his boredom at this moment. The story of "Ying Ning" had actually been almost finished several times before, and only a few parts were left.
The girl today was obviously a little absent-minded, listening silently, unlike before when she asked questions from time to time.
"After tomorrow, if you want to watch a play or listen to music, go to another Gou Lan." After the story was told, the girl sighed and said.
"Why?" Li Yi asked with some confusion.
Although there are a lot of hooks and fences in the nearby tile house, the environment where they are located is better. He has been going there every day these days. If he suddenly changes places, he will not be used to it.
"Because there are too few guests, Grandpa Sun and the others are all leaving." The girl sighed again and said leisurely.
Customers are the basis for their survival. If there are no customers to watch, they will not be able to maintain even the most basic survival. If they cannot make money in one place, they will naturally have to change to another place.
Grandpa Sun and the others had actually wanted to leave for a long time, but because of the story of "Painted Skin" last time, they still had some illusions in their hearts, but the depression in the past few days had completely disappointed them.
Even if she told him the story of "Ying Ning", it would only be lively for a few days, not to mention that one or even several stories could not feed so many people.
Everyone has left, and naturally she and Sister Ruoqing can't be here. I don't know how to live in the future.
"Leave? Don't!" Li Yi looked at her like she wasn't joking and hurriedly advised her.
If they all leave, where will he spend his time in the future?
Rong Xiaorong said that he recommends a historical text, "The Best Sales", which is large-scale and imaginative. It tells the story of the fortune of a small person who sold yang traps in ancient times.
