The pretty maid looked at Li Yi with a blank look on her face. After a moment of confusion, she pointed at the cake in her hand and then asked with some uncertainty.
The sound is soft and waxy, which is very pleasant to the ears.
No matter how beautiful other people's maids are, it has nothing to do with him. Li Yi is only interested in the fragrant pastries in her hands. When he saw her sharing them with the women, he was quick and easy. In his place, the other party seemed reluctant.
, feeling slightly dissatisfied.
Could it be that this beautiful maid actually favors girls over boys?
Li Yi looked at her and nodded with absolute certainty, thinking that if she rejected him, he would definitely go to her boss to complain about her. Feudal ideas must not be tolerated.
The woman was stunned for a moment, then raised her head again and glanced at the scholar in front of her. Seeing that he was not joking, she actually handed over the silk handkerchief in his hand.
"Xiaohuan, come here and try this!"
Li Yi stretched out his hand and took away the two pastries left on the silk handkerchief. He turned around and waved to the little maid. He had never been a solitary eater. This pastry smelled pretty good. It happened that Xiaohuan liked sweets, so she had to let her do the same.
Have a taste.
After taking two steps, he suddenly turned his head and said "thank you" to the maid who was standing there blankly, then turned around and left again.
The maid looked at Li Yi's back, the confusion on her face became even stronger.
"Ruo Qing, do you know that scholar?"
A woman next to him spoke in confusion, with a surprised expression still on her face.
The woman named Ruoqing shook her head and said, "I've never seen it before."
"What?"
When several women around her heard this, their faces showed expressions of extreme surprise.
"Then why did he..."
"This scholar is so strange..."
"Yes, I have never seen such a person..."
-------
-------
Even though Wan Ruoqing tried very hard to recall, she still had no impression of the scholar. After a while, she finally determined that she had not known him before.
But if he had never met before, his behavior when he stepped forward to ask for the sweet-scented osmanthus cake would have been a bit confusing.
The etiquette between men and women has been very well developed in today's era. Even a man she knows well will stand at attention and bow to her when he sees her, without losing etiquette. As for things like reaching out to ask for sweet-scented osmanthus cake, I'm afraid what will happen?
Nothing can be done.
Therefore, when the strange scholar reached out to her, Wan Ruoqing felt a little confused and at a loss.
And until now, she hasn't figured out why she held out her hand just now...
"Ruo Qing, I remember Zui Mo seemed to have said that we should leave two pieces for her. She likes to eat the sweet-scented osmanthus cake you made the most..." After a moment, a certain woman beside the pretty woman came back to her senses.
As if he remembered something, he turned to look at her and said with a strange expression.
"ah……"
When the beautiful woman named Wan Ruoqing heard this, she couldn't help but let out a soft cry, with a regretful expression on her pretty face.
At this time, everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at the scholar who was chatting and joking with the pretty girl not far away. The expression on his face was extremely weird.
Li Yi still didn't know that he had completely lost his gentlemanly demeanor in the eyes of these strange women, and might even be labeled as shameless. The taste of the nameless cake just now made his eyes light up, and he thought about how to make it later.
Ask the maid where she bought this pastry...
When he was planning this in his mind, he suddenly felt something. Looking back, he found that the beautiful maid and the women around her were looking at him with strange eyes.
Li Yi couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he saw this, feeling a little surprised.
Although this pastry is indeed delicious, they won't feel so distressed, right?
He shook his head and stopped thinking about these things. He turned to look at Xiaohuan and asked with a smile: "How is it? Is this pastry delicious?"
The little maid's eyes have turned into crescent moons. For her, the happiest thing is to eat such cakes every day.
"It turns out that brother actually has an old relationship with Miss Wan and several talented women from Yunying Club. I'm disrespectful! I'm disrespectful!" At this time, the two scholars who came in with Li Yi just now came up and looked at Li Yi with envy on their faces.
said.
"Who is Miss Wan?"
Li Yi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then asked with some doubts.
He had never even heard of Miss Wan Yunyingshe.
"Brother, please stop joking..." The two looked at Li Yi and said with strange expressions.
Before Li Yi could speak, one of them spoke again: "Although Miss Wan is an actress, her literary talents are beyond our reach. Even those famous talents will not look down upon her because of her status."
To her, it is not a shameful thing for Xiongtai to have an affair with Miss Wan, so why bother covering it up?"
Li Yi was really confused now.
The two people talked so much, but he didn't understand what the other party meant. He really didn't know that Miss Wan!
As for discrimination against actors and actresses... Where can such a thing exist?
Actors in ancient times are equivalent to actors in later generations. The difference is that the status of the two is very different. The latter often enjoys the treatment of stars, while the former has a relatively low status and belongs to the untouchables other than scholars, farmers, industry and merchants.
The status in the minds of the ancients was even lower than that of ***.
There is an old saying, "A bitch is ruthless, an actor is meaningless." The actor here refers to an actor, which shows how much the ancients looked down on this profession.
But what does this have to do with myself?
He is a good young man of the new century who has received higher education. He has a righteous outlook on life and advocates equality for everyone. Why should he look down on other actors?
If in later generations, they would all be celebrities! How rare!
"Who is Miss Wan you are talking about?" Li Yi looked at the two of them and asked sincerely.
This time, it was the two people's turn to be confused. They pointed at the beautiful maid not far away and said, "That is Miss Wan!"
"What?"
Li Yi's eyes widened and he almost blurted out: "Isn't that the maid from Zuixiang Tower?"
"How could Miss Wan be a maid? Moreover, aren't the women beside her the talented ladies of Yunying Society?" A scholar looked at Li Yi and said with some astonishment.
Li Yi held on to the table next to him, feeling a little confused.
So, the one just now was not the maid here?
Those pastries are not from the restaurant’s buffet, but are brought here by someone else?
No wonder she and the women around her looked at her so strangely just now. After doing it for a long time, they all knew her!
In an instant, Li Yi felt that his old face was a little red and his whole body felt bad.
Even in later generations, he was not thick-skinned enough to ask a strange woman for snacks on the street, but just now, he actually did so...
The key is, the other party really gave it!
He involuntarily raised his head and looked in that direction, and the woman's eyes happened to be looking over. The moment their eyes met in the air, Li Yi's face looked extremely embarrassed...
[PS: There is still a little plot that needs to be elaborated on later, and there is only one update today.]
