"Sister Ruoqing, the number of guests coming here has decreased a lot in the past two days." After Li Yi left, the girl named Xiaozhu looked at the sparse guests in the fence and said with a sigh.
As the popularity of "Painted Skin" gradually subsided, the number of guests in the Goulan became less and less day by day. Up to 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 spread everywhere. Although they were upset, they couldn't say anything about it.
They are all stories too. If Grandpa Sun said it, others would naturally say it. After listening to a short story like this, you can almost retell it. It is impossible to make a long-term money with these stories.
Firstly, the guests were separated by others, and secondly, the stories were told more often, which naturally lost the freshness. There were fewer and fewer guests who had never heard of it, and there were no fresh stories to supplement, so naturally there would not be any More people are willing to come.
Wan Ruoqing looked at the few sisters who were seriously performing on the stage, but there were few people watching. She sighed softly, with a trace of helplessness on her face.
They are just actors who live at the bottom of the industry, unlike those famous actors who are attached to high-ranking officials and nobles. Every time they perform, they can get a lot of money in return. They can only survive in this way.
Her situation is considered to be better, she is famous in a certain small circle, and her singing skills are not bad, and Xiaozhu and her life are not very prosperous, but they are barely passable.
However, there is nothing worth looking forward to in such a day. Perhaps once the time passes, the first thing the two of them will face is the problem of survival.
"That Mr. Li seems to be quite rich." The girl said in a low voice, holding her chin.
The shop next door called "Ruyifang" is very famous in Qing'an Mansion. I heard that many rich young masters and ladies like to shop there, so he must not be short of money.
It's a pity that Sister Ruoqing never accepts money from those friends, otherwise, their life would be much easier.
But speaking of it, sister Ruoqing treats that young master differently from others, doesn't it
The girl turned her head to look at her, a sudden expression gradually appeared on her face, as if she had discovered something extraordinary.
Wouldn't the best ending for these actors be to marry a young man like this? Although they can't become regular wives, even if they are concubines, if they can be treated kindly by the other party, it will be an excellent destination.
Sister Ruoqing is not only good at singing, but also talented in poetry. Many talented scholars have revealed this meaning. One named Jiang Zian even chased her hard. However, Sister Ruoqing did not agree. belong to.
That young master is very kind to others, so he shouldn't treat Sister Ruoqing badly, but he must be careful of that girl who likes to dance with swords. When she climbed the wall, she saw her practicing swords in the yard. Such a person, It's definitely not easy to provoke.
If Sister Ruoqing entered his house, she might be bullied by her. That woman is so powerful, even if she and Sister Ruoqing combined, she might not be her match...
In the girl's heart, she began to worry faintly.
"What are you thinking about?" Wan Ruoqing asked, seeing the girl's face constantly changing, sometimes happy and sometimes sad, and tapped her head lightly.
"If elder sister Ruoqing marries Young Master Li, I'm afraid you have to be careful about that..." The girl subconsciously expressed her worries.
Before he could finish speaking, Wan Ruoqing interrupted him.
"Don't talk nonsense, Mr. Li is a family man, and he and I are innocent."
"I know, you are 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
In fairness, she still felt that there would be nothing wrong with Ruoqing if she followed him.
"Okay, you jade bead, don't you want to fight?"
Wan Ruoqing raised her hands as a gesture, the girl hurriedly stood up from her seat, stuck out her tongue, and said, "If Sister Ruoqing is embarrassed, I can be your matchmaker. I think he likes Sister Ruoqing too..."
"Also say..."
Wan Ruoqing blushed and hurriedly chased after her. The girl screamed and ran away immediately.
…
…
"Li County Lieutenant's recovery speed has far exceeded my expectations." When Dr. Chen from Huichun Hall came for a follow-up visit, he said in amazement after taking Li Yihao's pulse.
It stands to reason that like his last injury, it would take at least a few months for ordinary people to heal, and it would take a few months for a healthy person to recover to his current level.
At this time, only ten days had passed since he was injured.
This county lieutenant, with the appearance of a thin scholar, is really amazed at how quickly his body recovers.
Seeing the way the old man looked at him, as if looking at something precious, maybe thinking of taking him away for research, Li Yi felt a chill in his heart.
After sending Dr. Chen away, he did not continue to lie down. He wandered around the yard for a while, did Tai Chi twice, and stretched his muscles and bones.
His range of activities in the past few days has been on the road from here to Goulan. He eats more and moves less, and he doesn't know if he has gained a few pounds.
With his current physical condition, doing some exercise properly is beneficial and harmless.
Of course, it is limited to walking, doing Tai Chi and the like, and it is still not suitable for more intense ones.
Ruyi took Ruyi and Xiaohuan out, no matter ancient or modern, shopping is a woman's nature, big and small women are the same, especially when the family is not short of money, the bustling Qing'an Fucheng is a paradise for them general presence.
The weather is cold, Ruyilu is no longer produced, and Ruyifang is temporarily closed. A few girls have returned to the village. Ruyi and Ruyi are here. Don't worry about safety issues. Lao Fang only comes here once in a while.
After living in Fucheng for a long time, I can't adapt to the various inconveniences of life in the cottage, perhaps because I am bored at home alone, Ruyi also moved down a few days ago, and sleeps in the same room with Xiaohuan Ruyi at night.
Although this made the room a bit crowded, the three girls also came here when they were young, so there is nothing unaccustomed to it.
In the past few days, he still goes to Goulan to stay for a while every day, and sometimes sits with Ruyi in the yard to bask in the sun, watching Liu Ruyi practice the Tai Chi swordsmanship 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 she was able to beat him to a higher standard. Ms. Liu Er's talent may not be that high, which happened to give Li Yi a chance to live up to her master's addiction.
But now they are not there. After Li Yi finished the two sets of boxing, he glanced casually and saw another familiar head popping up on the opposite wall.
"The story of "Ying Ning" hasn't been finished yet." The girl leaned against the wall, watched him finish those strange movements, looked over, and then said.
Li Yi hadn't seen her climbing the wall for several days, and there was someone to relieve her boredom at this moment. The story of "Ying Ning" was almost finished a few times before, and there were only a few parts left.
Today's girl was obviously a little absent-minded, listening silently, not asking some questions from time to time like before.
"After tomorrow, if you want to watch a play or listen to music, go to another Goulan." After the story was told, the girl sighed and said.
"Why?" Li Yi asked with some doubts.
Although there are a lot of fences in the nearby tile house, the environment where they are located is better. These days, he goes every day, and 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.
Guests are the basis of their survival. If there are no guests to watch, they can't even maintain the most basic survival. If they can't make money in one place, they will naturally have to change to another place.
Grandpa Sun and the others actually wanted to leave a long time ago, but because of the story of "Painted Skin" last time, they still had a little fantasy in their hearts, but the depression for several days made them completely disappointed.
Even if she told him the story of "Ying Ning", it would only be lively for a few days. What's more, one or even a few stories could not feed so many people.
Everyone has left, so it is impossible for her and sister Ruoqing to be here. I don't know how to live in the days to come.
"Leave? Don't!" Seeing that she didn't look like she was joking, Li Yi hurriedly persuaded her.
If they were all gone, where would he spend his time in the days to come
