Yu Fu sticks out her tongue and uses her fingers to show a small distance.
"a little bit."
Gu Yixin thought it was true, and said: "A little bit is also remarkable. We Dongling people pay attention to women's virtue without talent. Many aristocratic ladies who are as old as you can't read a few words! Let alone talk. A few days ago Father Ri heard what the courtiers said, and said that he would invite a master to teach you knowledge, but I didn't expect you to have knowledge!"
Although he didn't understand what she was reading about the Yanliuhuaqiao, but he knew it was a good poem as soon as he heard it.
Singer Gu Jiu held a folding fan and tapped it lightly on his head.
"Yufu's knowledge may have caught up to yours. You haven't studied hard since then, and you are being compared to a little girl. Let's see if you are ashamed!"
Gu Yi stuck out his tongue, seeing a painting boat slowly paddling by the river, he quickly changed the subject.
"Second brother, is this the boat you ordered? It's so beautiful!"
Everyone looked at the painted boat, and saw that the boat was brightly lit, and a woman Shi Shiran with a pipa in her arms came out, with light and elegant water sleeves, and saluted everyone on the deck.
"I've seen the second son, the fifth son and the sixth son, Miss Yufu."
Gu Jiuge nodded at her, then turned to look at Yufu, "Her name is Yaoyue, she is a musician, and she is good at playing the pipa. I specially invited her to play the pipa today, you will definitely like it."
Yaoyue stretched out her hand to help everyone get on the boat, but Gu Jiuge hugged Yufu directly, leaving her hand empty.
She had no choice but to support Yao Lan who was behind her. Both Gu Xiang and Gu Yi were martial arts practitioners, so she didn't need to help her.
After everyone boarded the boat, the boatman tapped water with a penny and slowly left the shore.
It was Yufu's first time to sit on a painting boat, and it was very strange, she kept looking out of the small window of the cabin.
In the dim night, a round of bright moon hangs in the sky, casting its reflection in the heart of the river, rippling silently with the water.
There are also some other painting boats around, singing or music can be heard from inside from time to time, and the dots of candlelight make the whole river look like the Milky Way in the sky.
The river water meets the sky, contrasting with the sky full of stars.
Seeing that she was interested, Gu Jiuge simply changed places with her.
"Sit here and see better."
As he spoke, he sat in Yufu's seat, next to Gu Xiang and Gu Yi.
There was an ambiguous expression on the faces of the two of them.
"Second brother always sits with Miss Yaoyue every time he comes here, and today he neglected Miss Yaoyue for Xiaoyu's help, how is that good?"
The two were talking, winking at Yufu, and Yufu belatedly glanced at Yaoyue beside her.
Yaoyue blushed immediately, lowered her head slightly, but glanced affectionately at Gu Jiuge.
Yu Fu immediately understood.
This Yaoyue girl thought she was an old acquaintance with Gu Jiuge, and should be his confidante, so he often invited Yaoyue to perform for fun.
"What nonsense are you talking about in front of Yufu, Miss Yaoyue and I are bosom friends, we just love drinking and rhythm."
As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass, lifted it towards Yaoyue, and drank it with his head up.
Yaoyue also picked up the wine glass in front of her, saluted Gu Jiuge, and drank it down with her face covered with her sleeve.
But Yu Fu could clearly see that there was a faint look of disappointment on her face which was covered with her sleeves.
"Yueyue lived alone in the imperial capital. If it wasn't for the help of the second son, he would have been bullied by those dignitaries. Outsiders know that Yaoyue belongs to the second son, so they dare not come to provoke. In Yaoyue's heart, I only regard myself as the son's handmaid."
She said, picked up the pipa and got up to salute.
"Today is the first time I see Miss Yufu, so I can't congratulate you on inviting Yue. If Miss doesn't dislike Yaoyue's mediocre skills, I would like to ask Miss to order a song."
Yaoyue is a virtuoso. He has been in the Fengyue field for a long time, and he is very good at observing words and expressions.
She could tell at a glance that the focus of the three young masters tonight was all on this young lady.
So she only asked Yufu to play some tunes.
Yu Fu looked at her hands, the fingers were slender and graceful, such hands were not suitable for playing majestic pieces.
"Chunjiang Huayueye is considered an ancient song. I wonder if Miss Yaoyue can play it?"
Yaoyue was startled when she heard the words, and when she looked at Yufu's eyes, she unconsciously softened.
This song is mellow and sad, but it doesn't waste much effort to play it, and it can express her affection for Gu Jiuge.
I don't know if Yu Fu ordered this song at will, or if she saw through her own thoughts before ordering this song, she is grateful.
"The invitation to the moon happens to be at one o'clock, so it's a show of shame."
As she spoke, she sat down near the stern, facing the crowd sideways, with a slender figure embracing the pipa, showing her delicate beauty even more.
The curly music sounded soothingly, just in time for the wonderful river view.
When everyone was listening intently, the boat suddenly shook, and Yaoyue couldn't hold the pipa and fell to the ground.
The closest to her was Gu Jiuge, and everyone thought he would go to help Yaoyue, so Gu Xiang and Gu Yi both went to help her, for fear that she would knock her head.
Unexpectedly, Gu Jiuge helped Yufu first, Gu Xiang, Gu Yi and Yaolan all rushed to nothing, and everyone scattered.
Yaoyue stood up from the ground in embarrassment, her figure swayed, and a strand of hair fell from her temples.
Then someone shouted outside, "Which girl in the cabin is playing music? Sir, I will invite the girl to play on our boat, and I will give you ten times the price!"
The voice was rude and smelt of alcohol, everyone walked out of the cabin and saw that it was indeed a big fat man with a drunk face and red face.
The boat he was standing on collided with their painting boat, which caused the violent shaking just now.
Seeing Gu Jiuge and others, this person still raised his chin and looked at Yaoyue lewdly, because he couldn't recognize that he was the son of Guhou's mansion because of his drunken eyes.
Gu Jiuge frowned immediately, and Yaoyue pulled his sleeves and shook his head at him.
"Young master is extremely honorable. If you speak up, this matter will definitely be settled easily. However, Master Gu has always hoped that you gentlemen will keep a low profile in the imperial capital. If this matter becomes serious, I'm afraid it will be bad for the three young masters. It's better to let them Invite the moon to show up."
Even though she is a musician, no one dared to provoke her because of her name as Second Young Master Gu's.
Gu Jiuge nodded, and the group took a step back, letting Yaoyue speak up.
"I am Yaoyue, and I am here to entertain distinguished guests at the order of Second Young Master Gu. If this guest does not want to offend Guhou's residence, he should leave quickly!"
The guest next to the drunk man heard the word "Yueyue" and was half sober.
"It's terrible, she is the woman of the Second Young Master Gu. The guests that the Second Young Master Gu wants to entertain must be very important, let's go quickly!"
Someone hastily tugged at the drunk man's sleeve, and bowed his hands to Yaoyue to apologize, "I'm sorry, Miss Yaoyue, we couldn't see clearly because it was too dark, so we bumped into your boat, it wasn't intentional."
"What's not intentional? Lord, I did it on purpose!"
The drunk man waved his hand ungratefully, and with a wave, several men behind him jumped onto their boat.
