Suddenly realizing that there were outsiders present, Tantai Heqing looked at Fu Xie a little embarrassed.
But I saw this man closing his eyes. I don't know if it was because of the lighting, but his cheeks looked red.
Tantai Heqing was so embarrassed that she stopped talking and said, "Thank you, Fu, go back first. The porridge is too hot. I'll eat it later."
"Miss……"
Xie Fu spoke, but his voice was a little hoarse. After moistening his throat, he continued: "Miss, I have something to tell you."
"Say it."
Xie Fu told Zhu Ming's story.
After hearing this, Tantai Heqing smiled and said, "I'll sell you a favor."
"Thank you, Miss, for being so tolerant."
Tantai He smiled lightly: "You saved me, it's reasonable, and I don't know how to stick to the pillars."
"Thank you, Fu, for one more unkind invitation."
"explain."
"Sometimes, I want Zhu Ming to help me go out and buy something. Can I give Zhu Ming the freedom to enter and exit the mansion?"
How could Tantai Heqing fail to see Xie Fu's purpose in speaking for Zhu Ming, "Well, I'm too lazy to care about him."
I would like to add: "I restrain you in the house because I am afraid that you will go outside and talk nonsense, and also because..."
Tantai Heqing pondered, then said: "Xie Fu, do you know why I want to raise a pretty boy?"
"Know."
Tantai Heqing was shocked when he heard this answer.
"Miss wants to be a man."
Tantai Heqing chuckled, and there was a bit of sourness in the smile, "That's not entirely true. I am a daughter's family at heart, and a daughter's family should be like a daughter's family. But I can't let others bully me, so I can only be tough and let others
People know that I am not someone to be bullied."
Tantai Heqing unknowingly told Xie Fu what was in her heart.
After saying that, he stared at Xie Fu gently, and then realized that he had closed his eyes from beginning to end, and asked: "Why did you close your eyes?"
"Uh...uh..."
Tantai Heqing interrupted: "Okay, I don't like hearing lies."
"Thank you, miss." A drop of sweat quietly dripped from his forehead.
"By the way, Xie Fu, where are you from?"
"Yangzhou native."
"One part of the world is a bright moonlit night, and the other part is Yangzhou. The moonlight and wind make the land and its people outstanding."
These two sentences come from Xu Ning. There are three points of the brightness of the bright moon in the world, but lovely Yangzhou, you actually account for two points.
The love of cranes in Tantai is coupled with the moonlight wind, the spirit of the land and the outstanding people, which is profound.
Xie Fu responded: "One part running water, two parts dust, three parts wind and snow, four parts humanity, the whole of Yangzhou."
Tantai Heqing looked at the man who answered with his eyes closed. At this moment, he could look wildly and asked with a smile: "What about Suzhou?"
"One part mist and rain, two parts bridges and boats, three parts water in alleys, four parts women."
Tantai Heqing said: "It's superficial, but the history of Suzhou is profound. From my perspective, humanities should account for at least five points."
Xie Fu said with a smile: "It's just a joke, young lady, don't make fun of me."
Tantai He smiled sweetly: "What a quarter lady, that's nonsense."
Xie Fu said: "What I mean is that humanity is all in the lady. Suzhou is a tender and watery city, and its humanity can only be described by the word lady."
"Shallow, Suzhou has a tender and watery side, but where do you put a loyal and strong-willed man?"
Xie Fu responded with a smile: "What man doesn't love his mother?"
The word "mother" is a pun. It means both mother and wife. No matter how great a hero is, he was not raised by his wife. No matter how great a hero is, he cannot escape the barrier of beauty.
Tantai Heqing couldn't argue, "You have such a mouth."
"Thank you for your shallow knowledge. Miss, just listen and don't take it seriously."
"Whoever takes it seriously is just talking to you."
"Miss, the porridge is ready to drink. It will get cold if you leave it for a while."
Tantai Heqing ate quietly and could not hear a sound in this quiet study.
Xie Fu's ears were strong, so he could still hear faint sounds. Xie Fu couldn't help but open his eyes, but he didn't look at Tantai Heqing.
The slightly swaying candlelight cast a shadow on the ground in front of the case, and the pure black outline of the woman's figure was more graceful and charming.
The slender hands held the bowl and put the porridge and water into his mouth in a dignified manner.
Perhaps because of the long silence, Tantai Heqing actually asked: "Do you want to sit down?"
A very strange question, both polite and rude.
If you are a guest, you will have to invite people to sit down early in the morning, but wait until this time to ask.
If you are a servant, you have no right to sit down in front of your master.
"Need not."
Tantai Heqing asked again: "Thank you, Fu, is there anyone at home?" As he said something, he suddenly thought of something and hurriedly added: "I'm sorry."
Xie Fu smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, there is a grandfather and a cousin at home, but because I was too naughty and made a big mistake, I was kicked out of the house."
"Uh..." Tantai Heqing's hand holding the bowl trembled, and although her voice was soft, it caused quite a stir in her heart.
Tantai Heqing asked gently: "What's going on?"
Xie Fu answered calmly, "I accidentally burned down the ancestral hall."
"Then what?"
"Then I ran away."
Tantai Heqing couldn't help but chuckle, "Then why did you come to Suzhou?"
Xie Fu omitted some tedious content and said that he wandered all the way to Suzhou just when there was a flood in Changzhou and the outbreak of plague.
The process of having the water bag taken away from him, being hit in the head, losing his memory, and finally being abducted into the house by human traffickers is roughly described.
Of course, pretending to be a county magistrate to control the epidemic in Wuxi did not mention this.
After Xie Fu finished speaking, he also finished the Tantai Heqing porridge. He felt that time passed quickly and he couldn't say anything he wanted to say.
Xie Fu spoke first: "Miss, I'll go back first."
"Um."
Xie Fu packed up his things and left.
Tantai Heqing looked at the empty door.
After a while, Tantai Heqing finally looked back.
Under the flickering lamp, replies come one letter after another.
Suddenly he coughed a few times, and his thin figure trembled with the light.
…
There are many tile houses on the waterfront and the green waves are gentle.
Inside the green lacquered female wall, the fragrance of rouge is hidden.
When Xie Fu came back from Shantang River, he saw Hu Diquan and Zhu Ming standing on the roof looking up.
Xie Fu asked aloud: "What are you two looking at?"
The two of them stared intently and had no time to say anything.
Xie Fu was also curious and climbed up the bamboo ladder to the roof.
Only then did Hu Diquan notice Xie Fu and smiled mysteriously: "You came just in time, you haven't missed it yet."
Xie Fu curiously looked in the direction the two of them were looking at, but didn't see anything strange, "Diquan, what on earth are you looking at?"
Hu Diquan pointed with his hand, "Do you know where the other side is?"
Xie Fu responded: "Go back to Yingyuan."
This time Yingyuan is the place where the brothels are located. Although it is not a famous place for brothels in Suzhou City, it is still a grand palace with many families. If you want to judge the grade, it can be regarded as second-rate or above.
What Xie Fu cares about most is the place of brothel. Others are crazy about it, but the brothel has no secrets from him.
Hu Diquan said: "Keep your eyes on that window and don't blink!"
