After separating from Yuan Jin'er just now, when they returned to the second floor, the Su family were still discussing how to get Lu Xia to come to their side. Even though they understand that the Xue family must have some bargaining chips, Su Wengui and others are actually somewhat confident, mainly because they are often here in Yancui Building. In the middle, Su Wending is close to the big room, Su Wengui and Su Wenxing belong to the second room, and Su Wenluo and Su Wenji are in the second room. It is a three-bedroom, naturally they will not go together, but at this time they still choose to stick together and combine the relationship that they can pull together.
In the end, it still looked very beautiful. Some of them knew the more powerful stewards in this building, some were very familiar with Chen's mother, and some had personally supported Lu Xia several times. They felt that they had a close relationship. After reconciling it, I felt that the victory was in my hands. At this time, the people of the Su family had also been working hard, and they also took out a large amount of money. In addition to Li Pin's poems, they were very confident.
If it weren't for the fact that Lu Xia and Xue Yan had already developed a certain relationship, as long as they gave enough face and wrote one or two amazing poems and lyrics, there might not be a chance of winning tonight. But by this time, it was no longer a matter of fighting. Of course, Yuan Jin'er said it was not a good idea to hide outside and wait until the singing and dancing was over before going in. Ning Yi went up and smiled and finished talking to Li Pin, and Li Pin laughed too.
"Haha, no wonder the self-confident look below, I was already suspicious, so it is." In the smile, the attitude was open-minded. Jokes and jokes with Ning Yi, wrote a second poem with pen and paper, and handed it over to the woman next to him to take it. The poem is neither ironic nor complaining. Xia's second performance began. After the performance, the Xue family paid two hundred taels of silver, and the Su family paid three hundred taels. Together with the poetry and works, they were waiting for Lu Xia's choice.
When the final result came out, there was an uproar in the hall as usual, and the members of the Su family were also indignant. Soon after, Xue Yan, Xue Jin, Liu Qingdi and others brought Lu Xia up to say hello. From Lu Xia's standpoint, he had already written about the love of the Su family there. Xue Yan and the others laughed happily, and at this moment they were talking.
"Haha, about today's matter, Miss Lu must be very embarrassed. Choosing one side will definitely make the other side unhappy. Wenxing Wenji, we have been friends for many years, so I will first apologize. If you are angry, you will be angry with me. Yes. Axia is embarrassed after all, don't take this to heart..."
In Xue Yan's words, it was to block the anger of the Su family for Lu Xia, but in fact, it was nothing more than an attitude of "I'm not angry" here. Everyone seemed to be chatting and laughing happily. Xing Wenji and others can only show an open-minded demeanor here, and their eyes are paying attention to the situation in the entire hall.
Lu Xia's apology and the words of Xue Yan and the others, Li Pin also raised the glass and said with a smile, "We already know the relationship between Brother Xue and Miss Lu, today's events, the beauty of adulthood, I am deeply moved. Comfort. I don't know when Brother Xue will marry Miss Lu, but we can be considered to have achieved a good marriage story, this is the meaningful thing..."
"Brother Li... why did you say this..." When Li Pin said these words, Su Wenxing and others were a little confused, and they naturally put on a clear smile on the surface, but Xue Yan and Lu Xia changed their faces slightly. They knew the inside story. If Li Pin really knew the relationship between the two, he would be believed if he said it out loud. Others would probably say that the Su family knew they would lose, but they still wanted the beauty of adults. , it's even more troublesome. If she really married into the Xue family, I'm afraid she'd just confirmed the statement. If this is the case, I'm afraid it will cut off the possibility of her entering the Xue family.
The light was a little dim, then Liu Qingdi heard Li Pin's words, came out and raised his glass and said, "According to the good news from brother Li. Today's matter is indeed Su Jiarong Rang, if Liheng also came up with poems, I'm afraid it will be the same below. I really don't dare to write poems to show shame. At that time, which side Miss Lu will choose, I'm afraid it's really hard to say..."
These spoiler words didn't have much effect, because the Ning Yi he mentioned was standing by the railing and looking down on the stage below. Lu Xia was not at ease because of this, and stared at Li Pin with a bit of uneasiness on her face. Li Pin then sighed, raised the glass and drank it. He smiled and said no more. When he turned to look at Ning Yi, his eyes also changed. Looking down, Xue Yan, Xue Jin, Su Wenxing, Lu Xia and others also turned their heads and looked down shortly after.
The sound of silk and bamboo has just started, and it has quietly sounded.
The hall that was still noisy, what appeared in the eyes of everyone was a dimly lit stage. A woman dressed in white sat in the center of the stage, stroking the guqin in front of her, her long hair tied behind her head and pouring down, the white skirt stretched out like a lotus on the stage, the sound of the violin Ding-dong, a soft and comfortable feeling, is mixed in this human voice.
The conversation between the Xue family and the Su family on the second floor is itself the focus. More people are already looking at the stage at this time. The noisy voice gradually turns into a whisper, as if it was smoothed out by the soft and slow sound of the piano. In general, unconsciously, the sound of the piano seems to be getting clearer and clearer, and the hall has become quieter and quieter.
The woman looked as if she had been drawn on the stage with ink and wash. She had an elegant and attractive temperament in the soft plucking of her fingers. She wrapped a veil on her face and bowed her head slightly, showing indifference. With leisurely eyes and pink lips, although she can't see all of her appearance, she is definitely a beautiful woman who is quite outstanding. It seemed that she didn't care too much about the audience in the hall, instead she seemed to be playing leisurely among the uninhabited mountains or lakes.
Perhaps only a few people can understand the infectious power caused by that figure in a short period of time.
"who is this?"
Beside the railing on the second floor, Xue Jin asked softly, naturally it was Lu Xia, but Lu Xia also shook her head in confusion. Xue Yan looked at the people around him and whispered, "What song is this?"
Liu Qingdi, who was beside him, frowned and looked at Ning Yi subconsciously, only to see Ning Yi tilted his head and looked down, his fingers tapped lightly on the railing, shook his head and said: " It sounds like I've heard it before, but... it's hard to be sure at this time..."
"It's like the head of a water tune..." Lu Xia replied softly.
"This song was sung all over the place some time ago. I've heard it not ten or twenty times. This melody..." Someone whispered, "Is it wrong?"
The words were not very confident. Before the voice fell, the woman on the stage finally raised her head, her clear eyes swept across the audience, and only stayed on the second floor for a while. After the veil, the song passed leisurely. come out.
"When is the moon..."
Water tune head.
This music has been sung countless times in Jiangning in the past year. For many regular customers of the brothel, there is not much new idea. But the song here is not the same as usual. It still follows the skeleton of the music in the past, but the sound of the song is only leisurely and ethereal. During this period, the atmosphere of the lyrics is not lost, which makes people feel It is difficult to determine whether this sound is formal or deviant. For a while, some whispers sounded in the hall, and after a while, it was quiet. These people probably already realized that this song is good. If you have anything to say, always listen to it. Better to say it later.
Of course, no matter how the tune changes, the next lyric is always the same.
That is: "Ask the sky for wine."
"I don't know what year it is at the palace in the sky... I want to go home by the wind, but I'm afraid of Qionglou Yuyu..."
There were not many people talking in the hall. The sound of the piano and singing affected everything around at this moment. In the white clothes, the guqin, the long hair, the veil, and the clear and melodious song, this scene seemed to be infected by a clean fairy. with shock. The sound of music is different from usual, and the singing method is also different from usual, but it is not deviant. The skeleton is still the same, but every turning point, every vibrato, every rise and fall of tune seems to have its own soul. . With the cooperation of the ethereal and beautiful voice, he has created a new artistic conception of his own.
"It's so cold in the heights, dancing to figure out the shadows, why is it like being in the world..."
After singing, the woman smiled slightly and focused on the piano again. On the second floor, Ning Yi saw her seemingly inadvertent gaze, and shook his head gently. Of course, this did not disturb the tranquility and smile in the eyes of the woman below. She hadn't done these things for three years, and it wasn't really necessary to do them.
Before that, Ning Yi had never really heard Nie Yunzhu sing in an ancient rhythm. But he knew where the song came from. Fanningyi, a modern singer about water tunes, taught her and told her that he liked this style of singing. She was actually a little disapproving, but she never refuted it until this song. It's as if the two songs have been blended together in an almost magical way, but it doesn't give anyone any sense of abruptness.
"Several floors are so high..."
"At least in this matter, whether it's all kinds of poems and songs, or the folk songs that the son just said, if Yunzhu can't do it, I'm afraid not many people in the entire Jiangning city can do it..."
Thinking of the words she said when she was playful or full of confidence, and the somewhat hesitant expression on his face when she heard his songs, Ning Yi probably understood at this time, but at the moment, she could only be like others, quietly Listen to this song and sing.
"Turn Zhuge, Low Qihu, Zhao Wumian... There should be no hatred, what is going to be a good time to leave..."
On the other hand, in a window on the side of the hall, Yuan Jin'er looked at the figure on the stage and listened to the song quietly, while Chen's mother at the back was also listening, but at some point she frowned and said, "This is It’s Yunzhu…”
She had also listened to Nie Yunzhu's qin songs before, and she listened to them at a professional level. Nie Yunzhu's accomplishments in this area were excellent when he was in the Golden Wind Tower, but in fact, he was at least somewhat arrogant in his temperament. Originally, this was a mood that others liked. For example, Lu Caicai has a similar temperament, but Lu Caicai's temperament Flowing in self-pity, after all, it can't compare to Nie Yunzhu's coldness and arrogance.
But at this time, the coldness is gone, and the arrogance that was a little alienated has disappeared. Instead, it is just as natural and soft as a stream, covering everything warmly, moisturizing everything silently. Few people are willing to disturb such songs and artistic conception. Her coming to power does not need to overwhelm everything with a high-profile attitude, but it is like... There is no need to be controversial about it at all, and it directly infects everyone...
There is no need to compare with Lu Xia and others, because it is not a level or system at all.
"People have joys and sorrows, the moon is cloudy and sunny, and this matter is difficult to complete..."
The woman sang this song with a smile, and soon after, when she lightly opened her lips and sang the two sentences, "I hope you will be together for a long time", she seemed to feel a little reluctant to part with her voice, and the sound of the piano had passed. It took a long time for her to stop. She lowered her head and sat there quietly. After waiting for a while, the applause finally sounded.
The voices were mixed with the applause, and some people on the first and second floors began to ask the women around them the origin of the people on the stage, or excitedly began to discuss with the people around them to let her come.
In such a voice, the woman stood up from the stage, smiled and bowed slightly, without speaking, to show her gratitude. Then she walked towards the side of the stage, but it was not the backstage. Just now, Lu Xia went down from there, poured a glass of wine on the small table next to it, and sent it to Xue Yan. At this time, the woman also took a porcelain cup above, but instead of touching the jug, she walked to the side and poured a cup of tea.
In the hall, people looked at this scene with a little puzzlement, and in whispering voices, watching the next development...
