Chapter 227: The belts are getting wider and finally do not regret (5)
Soon, Peony flicked the strings, her Zhu lips lightly opened, and she sang quietly: "The green apple was in the autumn wind last night. There are infinite, and the lotus leans against each other. With Zhu Lan alone, looking sadly at the sunny day. Empty eyes are broken, distant mountains and green.
The colored paper is long and the brocade is thin. Whoever believes is hard to send. It's a pity that it's a good day for fun. Haggard by nothing but nothing. "
With a cry from below, Mudan got up and bowed to the pavilion on the right, with a shy expression on her face. There was a trace of contempt on Huiju's face, and she looked at me again. I only smiled faintly and picked up the tea cup. The tea that was originally good, but only bitter in the mouth.
I don't want Peony to retreat, but to sit again, stir the strings, and then open her lips. She sings tactfully, sings the lovesickness in the lyrics, and sings the sadness and sorrow in her mind: "You can't keep the flowers but the flowers fly. Xiang The south garden is full of emotions. It's a pity that it is red and white, with branches and branches. After the rain, it is separated again.
With the Zhu threshold, put Jin Chen. To Fang Cong, melancholy for a long time. What's more, the old love and the new hate, the sad period. Empty eyes, lovesickness. "
I suddenly lost interest and did not want to listen to the song "Phoenix Cup" again, and said to Huiju: "Let's go, and see Xiuhe."
I walked quickly amidst the humming of people, everything around here was so unfamiliar, as if all the excitement was invisible, and the loud noises could not be heard. Only Huiju’s words echoed in my mind. The person in the pavilion over there is probably the only guest of Peony. When I thought of this, my heart was so painful and uncomfortable as it was pinched. Is it jealous? Is it dissatisfied? Is it a grievance? Is it annoying? Or is it helpless to fate?
The person in the pavilion on the right, if I look good, is Xihe.
After a few years of absence, Xiuhe has moved from the third floor to the fourth floor, and his worth has increased several times. I didn't know how much money Xiao Xizi had spent, and didn't care, so he two of them guarded the door and pushed in.
The room is huge. After turning the twelve screens painted with Suzhou gardens, you see a room decorated in the moonlight of a lotus pond. The shallow flowing water is decorated with some real lotus flowers. There is a small pavilion in the lotus, showing the lotus. Sit inside and play a guzheng.
I stood with my hands behind and listened to her playing, clapped my hands and said "Miao", and then smiled: "I haven't seen you in a few years, Miss Xiuhe is not what it used to be."
The Xiuhe style stood up, wearing a light pink skirt with splashed ink lotus flowers, which seemed to be made by famous artists. When she saw me at first sight, I was stunned, as if she couldn't remember where she saw it. I reminded: "If you don't see the top ten feet of the peak, don't write Fangsi as Jiang Feng. Cuiqiao Jin Tianming Luan mirror, suspected that Xiang Fei was out of the water."
Xiuhe's face showed a sudden enlightenment, and he looked at me carefully, and said, "If this is not what it used to be, how can the slave family compare with you?" After saying that, I went to the inner room.
I stepped on the stone slab carved into lotus flowers, looking around and complimenting: "Lotus grows step by step, this decoration is really good."
Xiuhe smiled back at me and said, "I heard Mama Liu said that this is an imitation of Feixu palace repairs, but we are definitely not as expensive as Gong Zhonghua."
I laughed without saying a word and only followed her into the inner room.
The interior room is elegantly furnished and full of style. Because of the word "lotus" in her name, you see lotus-like decorations everywhere. Although not very luxurious, you can see that they are delicate.
Xiuhe poured a cup of tea and handed it to me: "I heard Mama Liu say that a son spent two thousand taels of silver with me for a good night, and wondered who it would be."
I gently knocked on the table with my folding fan and said, "Two thousand taels downstairs listen to a piece of music. Now you are also the top girl in this Wanchun building. It is normal for two thousand two to have a spring night."
Xiuhe laughed "Haha": "You're afraid you don't know the market. For the girl in Cangchun Pavilion, the first floor sings one hundred taels. The second floor one hundred fifty taels, the third floor two hundred fifty taels, the fourth floor four One hundred taels, double eating and drinking for the night will not count. But on the fifth floor, I live in Peony, and she is the only one who is willing to pick it up. It doesn't matter how much money."
"Does Peony sell herself?" I asked.
"Peony is the number one card, so naturally she doesn't sell herself. But I also said that if she wants, Mother Liu can't help it. But so far she has only spent the night with one person." Xiuhe put a smile away, her expression a little yearning. Luke: "I happened to see you that day. If you spend the night with someone like that, don't say how much money, you're just paying for it. I don't think there is a girl who is unwilling."
I sighed softly, almost sure of my thoughts, I don't know if I should be sad for myself or be happy for him? After all, he is a man and a woman like Peony. Although she was born in fireworks, she is knowledgeable and unsophisticated. It is best to be a confidant and a confidant.
Xiuhe thought I wasn't interested, and smiled and said, "You come today, I'm afraid there is nowhere to go." She paused and said, "It is probably impossible to renew the old. Let me just say if you have any instructions. "
I nodded: "I have something to ask you for help. But this matter is risky. If you don't want it, it's okay, just don't say it."
"What's the matter?" Xiuhe asked.
"I need this Wanchunlou account book, of course, not the one on the surface." I said bluntly.
Xiuhe looked at me in surprise, "What do you want this for?"
"You don't need to know what I'm going to do, you just have to get it for me." I said, drew a stack of silver bills from my sleeve and put it on the table: "This is fifty thousand taels. I will give it to you again after it's done. One hundred thousand taels and fulfill your three wishes."
"Three wishes?" Xiuhe said: "Can you satisfy them all?"
I smiled and drank a sip of tea: "Unless there is such a foolish dream of life and death as the flesh and bones and the moon to pick the moon, I am afraid that this world cannot be done without me.
Seeing my disapproval look, Xiuhe calmly said: "What if I don't help?"
I put the tea cup down: "It's okay, I believe that the price can still be made by someone. As long as you are tight-lipped, I will do nothing. What if you leave the wind?" I smiled at her and said slowly: "I If you think Xiuhe is a smart person, she won't."
"Why are you doing this?" She looked at me and said: "You want to take the account book, I am afraid that you want to get rid of Wanchun Tower. What about us sisters?"
"If you are worried about this, don't be afraid. All I have to deal with is the change of owner of this Wanchun Tower."
She looked at me carefully, as if she had an answer in her heart: "Do you want to take over?"
I didn't speak, it's natural for her to think so.
Seeing my silence, Xiuhe thought he had guessed what I thought, and pursed his lips, "I can help you, but why did you choose me?"
"I've inquired, you can calculate the number, and now Mama Liu will let you sort out the accounts and so on." I looked at her and said: "Back then, you saved me from a crisis, but you didn't hesitate to offend her and let me go, trust you. He is a kind and courageous person." My tone was calm: "From your words, I can feel that you will no longer want to see other women being forced to live like this. And, I guess you I definitely want to see my family again."
Xiuhe was startled, her eyes turned slightly red, and she murmured: "I haven't seen them again for so many years. I don't know if my mother is good or not.
I looked straight into her eyes, and kept seeing the depths, and said softly: "So, after the matter is done, one of your wishes can be to bring your family back, give them a residence in Beijing, buy a house, and from now on People are reunited and happy."
Xiuhe seemed to be unable to believe what she had heard. After all, the Beijing household registration, let alone ordinary people, can't guarantee that it can be obtained even by high-ranking officials. For a while, she seemed to be shocked, "You are so capable, why do you want this little Wanchun Tower?"
"These are two different things." My hand tapped the bank note: "It's up to you if you want it or not."
Xiuhe clenched her fist and then released it. Repeated this several times, she took a deep breath and put the cash receipt into her clothes, seemingly determined to say: "Okay, I'll help you."
