Chapter 79: Book house

The old housekeeper was unkempt, his clothes smelled of sweat, and he hadn't changed them since the last time. It is said that Liu Yanzhi gave them a lot of silver, and he shouldn't have fallen into such an embarrassing situation.
　　 After being overjoyed, there is great compassion. The old butler wailed and cried, saying that he was sorry for his father, and failed to take good care of the young lady.
　　 Liu Yan chuckled in his heart, and asked Miss what's wrong?
　　 "Miss she...she she she...uuuuu" The old housekeeper just cried, but couldn't say it.
　　 "Say what's wrong!" Liu Yan raised his eyebrows and grabbed the front of the old housekeeper, wishing to throw him into the Huangpu River sober.
　　 "Miss, she has fallen into the dust." The old housekeeper stamped his foot and said a shocking sentence.
"Fengchen?" Liu Yan's eyes were dark, and he almost sat on the ground. He knew exactly what Fengchen meant. He was the kind of prostitute who stood on the second floor of Yihong Courtyard and waved his handkerchief to solicit prostitutes. He received all kinds of prostitutes every day. As long as you give money, you have to accompany you to sleep. If you don't listen, you have to be beaten and scolded by the old bustard. Ms. Lin is such a quiet and elegant lady who has fallen into this field. How did the housekeeper and master take care of it!
　　 "Which brothel is she in?" Liu Yan asked straight out, and at the same time quickly counted whether he had enough money to redeem Lin Su.
　　 "I know, it's on the Four Horse Road." The old butler was ashamed and covered his face with his hands.
　　 Zhou Jiarui was still calm. He looked around and said: "It's too noisy here, talk to another place."
　　 The three people left the pier following the hustle and bustle of people. No one noticed that there was an idle man by the trestle squatting on the ground holding a two-foot-long playing card with a line of black characters on it: Jin Jiang 　 Liu Yanzhi.
They came to a noodle restaurant near the pier and ordered a bowl of shredded pork noodles for the old housekeeper. The poor old housekeeper hadn’t eaten for three days. He was already hungry, but when he saw the food, he couldn’t put his chopsticks at all, so he calmed down a bit. Feelings, I will say it again in the future.
　　 It turned out that something happened after they left Jinjiang by boat. Master Zhou was discouraged and had no hope of Liu Yan directly rescuing Lin Huaiyuan. When the boat arrived in Nanjing, he eloped with Lin Zhifu's aunt and took away all the silver.
Fortunately, the boat money has been prepaid in advance, and the other three still go to Shanghai according to the agreement with Liu Yanzhi. After arriving, they are unaccompanied and live on the streets. The only valuable thing on Lin Su's body is the jade ruyi, but they are not willing to take it. Pawnshops exchange money. Shanghai is a stronghold for foreigners. Every day, newspapers publish news from the north. The Eight-Power Allied Forces occupied Beijing and massacred the Boxer Regiment. There were countless casualties. The original hope became slim again. A bad idea, led Lin Su into the sea.
The second concubine was originally Lin Huaiyuan's top brand bought from the brothel. It has been a few years since Liang, but now she has returned to her old business and is familiar with the road, but she should not bring Miss Lin with him. The daughter who has not left the pavilion enters the prostitute. , From now on, the Lin family's face will be no more.
This decision was made with the old housekeeper behind his back. He didn’t know it, and couldn’t make it back. Miss Lin’s signs were all hung up, and she became a beggar in the street. Hoping for a miracle, I didn't expect the bodhisattva to be compassionate and really made him wait.
　　 "How is my master?" The old butler then remembered another important thing.
　　 "He's okay." Liu Yanzhi was unwilling to say more, took out a copper ball and patted it on the table to pay the bill, and said, "Now go to SiMa Lu!"
In 1900, Shanghai was divided into concessions and Shanghai County. The former is the Bund area of ​​later generations, and the latter is the old city of Nanshi. There are still city walls around the county seat. The streets are narrow and the buildings are old. The concessions are wide roads. European-style buildings and Chinese-style buildings complement each other.
Si Ma Road is a road parallel to Da Ma Lu 2 Road. There are brothels and newspaper shops along the street. The new literati who run newspapers are tired from work, so they go to find a firework girl to relax, which is quite exciting, but Liu Yan thinks of Miss Lin. A pair of jade-armed pillows with thousands of people, the slightest bit of vermilion lips, the experience of thousands of people tasted, and my heart was as tormented as if I started a pot.
The old housekeeper led the way and led the two to a two-story building on Four Horse Road, but it was not full of lewdness and licentiousness as Liu Yanzhi imagined, but rather an elegant and quiet temperament, white walls and gray tiles, and inside the walls In the lush bamboo forest, a small bamboo sign is hung on the door, on which the words "Meilan Shu Yu" are written in ink.
　　 "It's here." The old housekeeper gritted his teeth and hated the second wife.
　　 Zhou Jiarui took a sigh of relief as soon as he saw it, and said straight to Liu Yan: "Don't worry, your Miss Lin has not lost her body."
　　 "What do you mean?" Liu Yanzhi was a little confused. There is no reason to be a prostitute.
"Here is the Long Three Book Residence." Zhou Jiarui said bluntly, "It's not the second one, let alone the salted meat shop, but the most high-end brothel in Shanghai. It is a salon where officials and businessmen talk about things, and literati spend their time chanting poetry. For smoking, drinking, tea, and playing mahjong, this is the daily program. You think it is the bathing center of our time. When you get the match, you will enter the gun room. Ancient people are not as vulgar as you think."
Liu Yan went straight to knock on the door, saying that it was a knock, it was better to say that it was a smash. After a while, the door opened, and there was a sleepy man standing inside. He opened his mouth and spoke softly. Can understand the general meaning, it is not open yet, please come back in the evening.
　　 "I'm looking for someone." Liu Yan pushed the turtle away and rushed in.
　　 Gonggui hurriedly turned back to stop him, the gentlemen of the bookstore were out at night, and they were all sleeping now. It would be no good to disturb them.
　　 Liu Yan straightly raised the tortoise with one hand, scared him to dance and shout loudly, the window on the second floor opened, revealing a pointed face of melon seeds: "Noisy Teller, Nongsa twist?"
　　 Zhou Jiarui raised his head and arched his hands, and said in a round Beijing accent: "The Prime Minister's National Affairs Bureau Five-Class Chapter Jing Zhou Jiarui, Xisang, take the liberty."
　　 "Xisang" is the pronunciation of Mr. Wu Yu. Listening to his southern accent, the Guazi smiled with a chuckle. This smile is really charming and charming.
　　 Gonggui is also an eye-catching price. Seeing his husband smiled, he knew that these were distinguished guests. He immediately changed his face and greeted them politely to serve tea.
The living room of the book house is not big, antique, full of piano, chess, calligraphy and calligraphy, red sandalwood furniture in one water, ambergris burned in the Xuande furnace of the Ming Dynasty, and the ancient paintings on the walls are also of great origin, which are authentic works of Shi Tao. In short, every object in the house is very valuable and just right.
　　 Liu Yan wanted to go upstairs very impatiently. Zhou Jiarui advised him to stay calm and not irritable: "If you come, you will be at ease. This is not Longtan Tiger's Cave. Everyone is a gentleman, don't worry."
With the effort of a cup of tea, the woman with a melon-seeded face hired Tingting to come downstairs, with beaded jewels on her head and Ling Luo all over her body. Zhou Jiarui’s eyes were straight as she walked, but Liu Yanzhi’s heart was absent. Fidgeting.
A simple greeting, my husband is from Suzhou, and his name is Shen Xiaohong. He speaks Suzhou dialect and Beijing Mandarin. He has two years of time since he opened a book apartment on Si Ma Road. On weekdays, he receives rich gentry, wealthy businessmen, literary scholars, and new-style people in foreign costumes. This is the first time to receive.
　　 "This is my brother Liu Yanzhi, the sixth grade Lan Ling guard who was personally named by the Queen Mother. We are looking for a person named Lin Su, can he be here with my husband?" Zhou Jiarui asked.
　　 "Oh, this little brother is the Zhao Zilong in Su Su's mouth." Shen Xiaohong looked at Liu Yan with beautiful eyes and glanced at Liu Yan. "I am here, but I have already signed the contract."
　　 "How much, I'll give it." Liu Yan said straight.
　　 "It's not enough to give the money. I have three pairs. You can match up before letting you go upstairs." Shen Xiaohong chuckled, picked up a delicate hookah, and smoked.
　　 Liu Yan is a straightforward man. Where can he chant poetry and make right? He took out a Colt revolver from his arms and patted it on the coffee table: "I won't be right, it will."
It happened that the tortoise public tea came up and almost knocked over the tray, and Shen Xiaohong was so scared that Hua Rong was eclipsed. She was just joking. I did not expect this master to be so incomprehensible, such elegant and interesting things, such a big trouble. Desperate.
　　 "Okay, OK, I'll tell her to come down." Shen Xiaohong hurriedly got up, went upstairs to invite someone, and saw Lin Su weeping at the top of the stairs within two steps.
　　 Lin Su and the second concubine went downstairs, and they met with each other. After less than a month, Lin Su has changed a lot. The whole person has lost weight, and the weakness in his eyes is gone, replaced by tenacity and persistence.
Everyone is here, and Zhou Jiarui begins to unravel the mystery. He is a teacher, and he is not eloquent. He adds a bit of interpretation to this legendary experience. Everyone is fascinated by it. Shen Xiaohong drags his cheeks with his hands, misty. Looking at Zhou Jiarui with his big eyes, he saw his heart and soul, adjusted his mind and continued, but he gave himself a myth.
　　Gonggui came to add tea, and he heard that the sky was falling in a mess. It was even more enjoyable than Pingtan. The hot water in the teapot overflowed from the teacup and continued to flow down, causing a burst of laughter. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
　　 The old housekeeper cried with joy, and Lin Su couldn't help crying when he learned that the old man was promoted to the next level. The second wife's temperament was kind, and tears fell in her eyes.
"It's all a happy event, what to cry, 　I will be the host tonight, everyone is not drunk or not, hehe, you don't have to go back when you are drunk." Shen Xiaohong laughed, the dusty woman is free and unrestrained and heroic, more charming, Zhou Jiarui has five fascinations. I am afraid that Xiao Cui has already been thrown out of the clouds.
The stones in everyone’s hearts fell to the ground, and they talked about Lin Su’s joining the Shuyu. It is said that the second wife and Shen Xiaohong had been in friendship for many years. Both of them were prostitutes in Suzhou. This time they came to Shanghai by mistake. It is said that Shanghai’s Changsan Shuyu has very strict regulations. The husband must be able to sing Kunqu opera, play the pipa, and be able to speak Wu dialect fluently. The second aunt barely passes. Lin Su is from Hunan and grew up in Beijing. Qinqi, calligraphy and calligraphy are fine, singing songs and speaking Wu language makes it difficult for her, so in fact, Shen Xiaohong really took her in and didn't plan to let her come out to accompany guests.
　　 Liu Yanzhi was very grateful, and took out the emerald finger that the Empress Dowager Cixi gave him: "Sir, I don’t have a long body, and this finger is worth some money. It’s the expense of Miss Lin and the second wife for a few days."
　　 Shen Xiaohong just glanced at it and said calmly: "I have so many jadeites here, not rare. If you really want to thank me, just do one thing."
　　 "Go up to the knife and go down to the pan, one sentence." Liu Yan said straight.
　　 "I have three pairs..." Shen Xiaohong smiled slyly.
