At this time, the sky has completely darkened, and the Moon Mother has just risen. In the shadow of the lamp, accompanied by silk and bamboo, there are warblers and swallows murmuring. There are people in plain clothes, there are people in silk brocade, and there are girls in semi-transparent gauze...
This hazy scene actually made Su Liuyuan feel like she was in another world.
"Young Master, are you here to have fun too?"
Su Liuyuan looked confused, and Leng Hushu was awakened by Wu Nong's soft words. Looking closely, he saw a girl in green clothes standing on the stone steps at the door holding a beauty fan. She was covering her lips and smiling, looking at Su Liuyuan without any trace.
This sentence made Su Liuyuan feel a little at a loss and could only stand there stupidly.
"Haha - Qingyi, why are you lazy there again?" At this time, another woman in light purple clothes holding a beauty fan came out and said in a low voice.
It turns out that the girl on the stone steps is called Qing Yi, and her name matches her quite well. Su Liuyuan thought to herself.
Qing Yi turned around and replied: "Sister Zi Yi, you have wronged me again. I am seriously soliciting customers!"
"Oh? What did you get?" Ziyi had already noticed Su Liuyuan standing blankly at the foot of the stone steps. Although he was speaking to Qingyi, his eyes were circling around Su Liuyuan.
Qing Yi chuckled, hooked her slender hand on Su Liuyuan's elbow, and smiled sweetly: "Master, is this your first time to visit our Yihong Courtyard? Why don't you let Qing Yi show you the way?"
Su Liuyuan didn't notice for a moment, and was held steady by Qing Yi, who pulled her towards Yihong Courtyard.
Yihong Villa? Why are these words so familiar? Su Liuyuan thought doubtfully.
"Master, Qing Yi can be regarded as an outstanding girl in our other courtyard. Just come into the courtyard! She will not let you down." Passing by Zi Yi, I heard her saying to her with a soft smile.
"Qing Yi - you finally showed up!"
As soon as Su Liuyuan walked in, a burst of aroma hit her face, almost suffocating her.
Qing Yi took a step forward, stood in front of Su Liuyuan, and said, "Sister Lian, am I not here? What do you want from me?"
"Mom is looking for you everywhere!" Girl Lian was surrounded by the strong fragrance of flowers. Her black hair was pulled up into a bun, her big almond-shaped eyes were staring at Qing Yi, and she was fanning the beauty fan in her hand.
Qing Yi muttered: "No, I have to wait for the guests!" After saying that, he stepped aside, revealing Su Liuyuan dressed in men's clothing behind him, raised his chin, and said proudly: "You saw it!"
Only then did Lian Yatou discover Su Liuyuan's existence, her almond-shaped eyes suddenly widened, and she blurted out: "Hey! Qing Yi is so capable!" After saying that, she seemed to be aware of Su Liuyuan's age, she narrowed her eyes again, and said with a smile, "Master, do you know where this is?"
Su Liuyuan wanted to throw her hands away, but now she was dragged by Qing Yi, and now she had attracted a lot of attention. She frowned: "Yihong Villa."
"Do you know that you have to pay an entrance fee to enter the hospital?" Su Liuyuan was stunned for a moment, and Lian Yatou immediately noticed: "If the young master forgot to bring it, why not come back next time? The girls in our courtyard will always be here waiting for you. of."
What Lian Yatou said was both implicit and bold. Su Liuyuan glanced at Qing Yi, who was looking at her expectantly, and her heart moved: "How much is the entrance fee here? I'm a newbie here, it's really not too bad." Understand this.”
Hearing this, Girl Lian was surprised, but in the end she politely replied: "Not much, just five taels of silver."
Su Liuyuan nodded, took off the money bag from her waist, poured out five taels of broken silver, and handed it to Lian Yatou: "Can I stay here now?"
"Of course!" Lian Yatou arched her eyebrows.
After Miss Lian left, Qing Yi's face was filled with excitement: "Master, let's go!"
"Um."
Su Liuyuan was taken to an elegant room by Qing Yi.
There are only three painted walls in the private room, and the side opposite to the door is suspended. Looking from the railing, you can see the full view of the hall on the first floor. It is indeed a good location!
After sitting down, Qing Yi made tea and said to her: "Master, when I first saw you just now, you seemed to be in a bad mood. Can you tell Qing Yi?"
Su Liuyuan smiled and said: "It's just some trivial matters, nothing to mention."
Qing Yi's eyes wandered, he turned around and sat next to her, tilted his head and asked, "Master, why don't you let Qing Yi guess?"
With a slight smile, Su Liuyuan nodded.
"Looking at the young master's clothes and behavior, he must not be from a poor family, but must have a good background. So the things that worry the young master should not be food, clothing, housing and transportation, but the chores between people, right?"
Hearing this, Su Liuyuan looked at Qing Yi in front of her.
The clear black and white eyes were round and translucent, faintly reflecting Su Liuyuan's little face that had not yet grown. The slightly pouty cherry mouth complements the shallow dimples. What a lovely little beauty!
Su Liuyuan smiled lightly: "Qing Yi is really thoughtful."
"Hehe, there is no such thing! The sisters in the courtyard all say that Qingyi is still a little girl!" Qingyi smiled sheepishly and narrowed her eyes, two small dimples looming.
"哐—" As soon as Qing Yi finished speaking, a gong sounded in the hall.
Tsing Yi jumped up and shouted in surprise: "Oh! I forgot today's day. It's time for Tsing Yi to go backstage!"
"What's wrong?" Su Liuyuan saw her expression was different and asked quickly.
Qing Yi was embarrassed to explain: "Today, Qing Yi was arranged by her mother to help the new sister to show off on stage. Now I have forgotten about it. No wonder Sister Lian just said that her mother was looking for me!"
"Then you go now!" Su Liuyuan looked downstairs. The hall was already filled with many people.
"Master, Qing Yi has finished his performance in a moment. I'll come with you again!" Qing Yi picked up the hem of her skirt and hurried out. The person had already gone out, and the voice still reached her ears.
Su Liuyuan leaned on the railing and looked towards the first floor, only to see the translucent curtain on the stage hanging down, printing a slender figure. Although the face could not be seen clearly, the exquisite and graceful figure could arouse the infinite reverie of the viewer. After a moment, a string of pleasant sounds of silk and bamboo slowly flowed out from nowhere, fluttering and pulling everyone's minds up and down. The shadow on the curtain is like a ghost, playing forgetfully in the dead of night.
This reminded Su Liuyuan of Yang Liping's dance she had seen in modern times. She did not expect that she could see it in this different time and space. This somewhat made Su Liuyuan feel heartbroken.
Just as the guests were mesmerized, there was a burst of noise at the door of Yihong Courtyard. After a while, a pedestrian came in outside the door.
The person taking the lead was an extremely evil-looking man! There is a faint beauty mark on his white forehead. It may have been retouched and cannot be seen clearly. The corners of his eyebrows were slightly raised, and his narrow phoenix eyes were particularly stunning; the brocade clothes that were lightly draped around him swayed and fell to the ground, making a series of "rustling" sounds.
Even though many people laid their eyes on him along the way, he always had a slight expression on his face and sat in the first row of the guest seats as if no one else was around.
The dance on the stage was not disturbed by him, not even a pause.
