Lin Wanrong coaxed and lied to settle the matter of the ghost. Both parties were pleased, and he took advantage of it again. Naturally, everyone was happy.
When I got off the Qingyu building, it was drizzling in the sky. The early winter rain hit everyone's faces with a little bit of chill. It was cool and icy to the bone. In the faint misty rain, West Lake is like a shy virgin, wearing a hazy silk scarf, but it is even more mysterious and seductive.
The eldest lady gently propped up the oil-paper umbrella, held her long skirt, and walked forward slowly with small steps. Lin Wanrong saw that she was cautious, for fear of splashing mud on her long skirt, so she couldn't help laughing and said: "Miss, don't walk fast, it doesn't matter if your clothes get muddy, and don't get dust on your heart to be true."
The eldest lady turned her head and said angrily: "Don't you say some witty words, but I can't understand them. You have many friends, and talking to them is the right way." When the eldest lady spoke, there was a faint red thread in her sleeve , Lin Wanrong took a look, and said happily: "Miss, the red line is visible, the marriage is now, it seems that your good things are coming."
The eldest lady was startled, and looked down, but there was a ball of red thread left in the sleeve of the female celebrity last night, and there were two embroidery needles, which were actually seen by Lin San. She blushed, and snorted softly, "Chewing nonsense."
Lin Wanrong was used to joking with her and didn't care, but Xu Wei listened with relish: "Brother Lin, when I was your age, I wasn't as happy as you. Although I am quite old, I can't help but yearn for it."
Lin Wanrong smiled and said: "Master Xu, I'm just a small man, but this carefree life is poor and happy. It's not worth your yearning. If you say that we are also miserable, and we have been used as gunmen, we have to be grateful. If you don't know it, just pay it back." , but I am a smart person, this is uncomfortable."
Xu Wei said: "Brother Lin. Today I used the hands of the Xiao family to deal with Tao Dongcheng. I also have my own difficulties. I hope I will forgive you." Xu Wei is a smart man. Hearing the meaning of Lin Wanrong's words, he knew what he was doing today. His thoughts were all seen through by others, so he simply confessed.
Lin Wanrong shook his head and said with a smile: "My lord, I don't understand what you said. The West Lake is very beautiful in the rain today. If I find a few sisters and go out to have some fun, how happy it will be."
The eldest lady walked in front, but she heard every sentence, turned her head and said angrily: "Lin San, why don't you repent?"
Unrepentant? Is this about me? I thought my character was the most fickle, when did I have such a persistent side: "Miss, how can I never repent?"
The eldest lady blushed and said: "You are in Jinling, visiting the oirans in Miaoyufang, accompanied by your cousin, and exchanging knowledge, that's all right. Now it's Hangzhou, why are you talking about that place again?" Such dirty thoughts? Have you forgotten Miss Qingxuan, sister Qiaoqiao?"
Khan, my wife didn't take care of me, but I want you to take care of me. Seeing the angry look of the eldest lady, it seems that it is a great crime for a man to visit a brothel.
In front of the eldest lady, Lin Wanrong said to Xu Wei: "Master Xu, do you think that visiting a brothel is a wrong thing?"
Even though Xu Wei was the number one scholar in the world, he couldn't help sweating profusely. This little brother Lin really dared to say anything, how ugly it is to talk about brothels. Everyone is a learned person, and they must be called brothels. When Xu Wei was young, he was also a well-known romantic talent, but now that he is getting older, he has become more reserved, and with the presence of Miss Xiao, he didn't know how to answer, so he could only say: "This, Brother Lin, the brothel The old man is not very good at things."
This old man pretended to be innocent, Lin Wanrong laughed and said: "Mr. Xu is wrong. What I said about the brothel is right and wrong. Naturally, there are reasons for the existence of this brothel. Think about it, some Women need money, and some men also have this demand. Both the buyer's market and the seller's market exist. It is impossible for this business not to flourish. As long as it is not forced, it not only solves the needs of both parties, but also pays profits and taxes. It is income, and there is nothing wrong with it. Prosperity and prostitution can go hand in hand.”
Beads of sweat rolled on Xu Wei's forehead, and he said a few more words to this little brother Lin, but each sentence was shocking, but his words sounded reasonable, and he couldn't find a reason to refute them.
Hearing his nonsense, the eldest lady gritted her teeth with hatred, pointed at him and said, "You, you, shameless and obscene, nonsense, hopeless!" She took off a long skirt, but couldn't care less.
Xu Wei sighed: "Brother Lin, when I talk to you, I am conceited that I am quick-witted, but I can't keep up with your thoughts."
Lin Wanrong said: "Where, where, my thinking is not open enough, my mind is not liberated enough, I need to hone it further."
Xu Wei laughed and said: "Brother Lin, you are really the most interesting person in the world, but I met you a little later. If it was thirty years in the morning, I was about the same age as you, so I wouldn't want to be with you." Make a vow. We have met several times, it is a great fate. Today, I will take the old man as the host, and take a small boat in the wind and rain to visit the West Lake. What do you think?"
Lin Wanrong is a flamboyant, today's affairs are done extremely well, fights have been fought, tricks have been used, money has been earned, there are ten thousand reasons to celebrate. In the wind and rain, boating on the West Lake is the favorite thing to do. Xu Wenchang and him, one is number one in the world, and the other is number two in the world. This thing is done with confidence.
Xu Wei waved his hand, but saw a servant running from a distance, looking at the footsteps, it was a lot of effort, this must be the guard secretly protecting Xu Wei. Lin Wanrong didn't find it strange either, Xu Wei ordered a few words, and the guard left in a hurry.
The two walked a few steps forward, only to see the eldest lady standing under a tree, watching from a distance. Xu Wei smiled and said, "Miss Xiao is still worried about Brother Lin after all."
Lin Wanrong shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I'm not worried about me, but I'm worried about a woman in a brothel being ruined by me." Xu Wei laughed loudly, and it was a kind of enjoyment to listen to this little brother Lin.
Seeing the two of them approaching, the eldest lady blushed. He bowed to Xu Wei and said, "Mr. Xu, this Lin San has such a temperament. He usually likes to talk nonsense. Don't blame him."
Khan, the eldest lady came to defend me, Lin Wanrong was slightly moved.
Xu Wei said with a smile: "Miss Xiao, what's the matter? My little brother Selin, although more than 30 years have passed in age, but this taste is just right. Talking to him is one of the great pleasures of life, so why not?" Come to blame."
So I'm not the only one who likes to listen to him? ? ? , the eldest lady thought, but she didn't say anything.
Xu Wei said: "I just invited Brother Lin to swim in the West Lake in the rain. If the eldest lady doesn't mind, then go with me. The three of us, old and young, can talk." Xiao Yuruo hummed lightly, and agreed .
Lin Wanrong smiled wryly, isn't Missy usually very busy? Why are you so free today. But you want to swim to the West Lake with us? Damn, we are drinking and calling prostitutes, where else can we bring you
After a while, the attendant led the three of them onto a painting boat. This painting boat was very spacious, with all tables and tables, it was actually very luxurious. Xu Wei nodded, very satisfied, and turned to the two of them, "Miss Xiao, brother Lin, please come in."
The three of them entered the inner cabin, but they saw a woman sitting in that cabin, with a Yaoqin in front of her, she was about forty or fifty years old, her temples were already grizzled, her forehead was wrinkled, but her face was vaguely visible back then Charm.
who is this Lin Wanrong was puzzled, but Xu Wei happily stepped forward and said, "Qing Lian, is it really you?"
Seeing Xu Wei's happy face, could it be his old friend? Lin Wanrong said in his heart.
Qing Lian said with a blessing: "Minister Su Qinglian, I have met Mr. Xu." She called herself a Minnv, but also called Xu Wei as Mr. This name seemed very nondescript, but Xu Wei didn't mind.
"Su Qinglian?" The eldest lady said in surprise: "You are a famous actress in West Lake, Su Qinglian everyone?"
"Qing Lian in the past is no longer the person you are today. Don't mention it again, Miss." Su Qing Lian glanced at Xu Wei and said coldly, but her eyes were full of hatred and resentment.
"Miss, what is the origin of Su Qinglian?" Lin Wanrong asked Xiao Yuruo in a low voice.
"You don't even know this allusion?" The eldest lady was surprised, angry and funny in her heart, seeing that you are very interested in visiting brothels, but you don't even know such epic stories, I don't know what you think about all day long What, are those dirty things
"This Su Qinglian was a famous opera actress in Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the past. She was also the most popular oiran of Fengyaxuan in West Lake. Later, she became acquainted with Xu Wenchang and fell in love with him. She was a talented scholar and beautiful woman, and it is also a good story in those days."
Khan, this Su Qinglian turned out to be a fan who can sing ditties. Ask Lao Xu to find Fantou, the old man is good, but he found his old friend, Lin Wanrong couldn't help laughing.
"Later, Mr. Wenchang went to the north to study, and he has never looked back for many years. This Miss Su Qinglian, since Mr. Wenchang left, actually sealed Yaoqin, thanked guests behind closed doors, and made an oath, Mr. Wenchang If she doesn't return, she will stop playing the piano, don't comb her hair, and let her beauty grow old."
The eldest lady sighed when she said this, what a terrible thing for a woman to let her most cherished beauty grow old, and what kind of affection is it? Looking at Su Qinglian's current state, she knew that every word of her oath was true, otherwise she would never be so beautiful and white-haired.
"Mr. Wen Chang went there for 30 years, during which time he got married in the capital. His wife was very virtuous, and asked Mr. Xu to send someone to invite Miss Su to the north for a reunion. Miss Su wrote a letter, which contained only a few figures: My concubine serves the king wholeheartedly, and I hope that the king will treat me wholeheartedly." The eldest lady gave Lin Wanrong a deep look when she said this.
Speaking of this, Lin Wanrong understood. Khan, I didn't expect that Xu Wenchang turned out to be Chen Shimei. Fortunately, he married a kind-hearted wife who let him take Su Qinglian as his concubine. Who knew that Su Qinglian had a strong temper, just like the Hedong lion, advocating monogamy, and hoped that Xu Wenchang would only have her in his heart. Needless to say, this result can also be imagined.
"In this way, this Ms. Su has been waiting for thirty years, her beauty is getting old, but she finally failed to fulfill her wish. She is really a miserable person." The eldest lady's eyes were red, she glanced at Lin Wanrong, and sighed.
Damn, Missy also advocates monogamy, right? Seeing Missy's eyes, Lin Wanrong was taken aback, and immediately thought, she advocates polygamy, and it has nothing to do with me, I don't care what she does so much.
However, after hearing Su Qinglian's story, Lin Wanrong, an out-and-out male chauvinist, was also a little moved. It's not easy to be so strong and affectionate. This woman is indeed worthy of respect.
"Qing Lian, after 30 years, you still look as beautiful as before." The words Xu Wenchang said surprised Lin Wanrong. The way the old man coaxes girls is comparable to that of Lao Tzu. See There must have been a lot of romantic tents back then.
"Mr. Xu, I'm here to go to the old promise. If I don't come back for a day, I won't comb my hair. After thirty years, I can finally play the piano again and comb my hair again." As Su Qinglian spoke, her face was full of tears, her pale temples looked extraordinarily bleak in the slanting wind and drizzle of the West Lake. Looking at Xu Wenchang again, he was also in tears, holding on to the table, he seemed to be unable to stand steadily.
Seeing old lovers meet, it feels very bad to act as a light bulb. Lin Wanrong pulled the eldest lady to go out, but saw the eldest lady standing stubbornly, crying more fiercely than Su Qinglian, just like the Qiantang River. embankment.
Be good, Lin Wanrong sticks out her tongue secretly, this chick also likes to watch romance dramas. Lin Wanrong hurriedly whispered in her ear: "These two want to say goodbye, but what are you standing here to hinder them?"
The eldest lady hummed lightly, and was about to go out, but heard a soft "buzz", which was actually the vibration of the strings. At some time, that Huafa Su Qinglian was sitting beside the Yaoqin that had not been opened for thirty years. , lightly opened the strings and sang:
"Green Yangfang grass Changting Road, young people are easy to go. The dream at the top of the building is five o'clock, and the flower bottom is sorrowful and rainy in March.
Ruthless doesn't seem to be passionate and bitter, and an inch is worth thousands of strands. When there is a limit to the ends of the earth, there is only endless lovesickness. "
Her voice is no longer the same as before, it is slightly hoarse, but this song is sincere, it is a portrayal of her life, without any technique, but it is sung from the heart, gracefully. Thirty years of lingering and waiting, thirty years of soul haunting dreams, once we see each other, but the beauty is old, the time is gone, so much resentment and bitterness in the middle, they are all kneaded into this ditty, with love and affection environment, it's hard not to be moved.
The eldest lady was crying, but Lin Wanrong couldn't stand the sad atmosphere, and sighed softly: "Since ancient times, beauties are like famous generals, and the world is not allowed to see gray hair—"
"Lin San—" The eldest lady looked at him with tears in her eyes, and sobbed, "Will you learn from Mr. Xu?"
