"...I feel dizzy and my eyes are tired. I lie on my side, and my dream soul flies into the balcony of Chu. The moon has just risen above the willow branches, and people meet after dusk; joys and sorrows gather over a glass of wine, thousands of miles from north to south, east to west..."
"...The sleeves are dripping with red tears, wetter than Sima's green shirt. A shrike flies east to Yanxi and asks about his return date before embarking on the journey; although the person in front of his eyes is thousands of miles away, and he still has a glass of wine before his death..."
There was a singing song in the guest room, and the voice was hoarse. The people passing by were walking in a hurry, speeding up their steps in unison, as if they were afraid of getting a little bad luck. Only the maid Donglian was waiting silently at the door. outside.
Zhou Lai Villa is full of undercurrents, and there has never been a moment of real peace. The same is true in Lengxiang Pavilion. The heads of the two places are accustomed to doing their own thing, but recently they have been gathering together frequently for the purpose of watching the orioles.
It seemed that the Laba Festival was not going well, so Chang Ping talked a lot about it, fearing that there was something missing, so that the oiran lady could understand it thoroughly. When the young man went out, the young master of the Jiang family had only said goodbye with less than half a stick of incense. Ying still hid herself in the quilt. Yin Huaian just wanted to let Shen Yuan know the progress as soon as possible, but unexpectedly, this beauty gave her extra face and decided to go into the mountain on the spot.
"The heart is drunk before it is drunk, the eyes bleed, and the heart turns to ashes."
The Lengxiang oiran held up her wind-haired cloak, with cinnabar on her wrists that was as red as blood. She stood in the breeze and listened quietly for a while. Leng Buding borrowed the last sentence. Yin Huai'an was by her side, and he understood very well that Shen Yuan was not doing it for himself. Come, at least not all of them - she always said, for the sake of the villa, for the overall situation: "I have met with the Jiang family members earlier, and I can see that he has a stubborn temper, and his bones are not strong enough. I am afraid that he will cause trouble in your place." What trouble? Guanying also has a strange temperament. Even though the two of us have never met, I am still worried that she will cause trouble again."
"When she sang Romance of the West Chamber, I knew she was feeling sorry for herself. Unlike Cui Yingying, who was born in a noble family, she still secretly hated herself for ending up like this young lady, meeting a heartless person." The courtesan's smile was thin, and she raised her eyes and stared straight at her. Take a look at Yin Huaian.
"How could I know what she was thinking? Why don't you... go in and take a look?" The owner of the villa didn't know what to say, so he picked something casually. When he came, Donglian came up to say hello, but was told to be silent by both of them. , Shen Yuan said, she had to listen carefully to see if the top lady who used to be a womanizer would have any real feelings in the dark place.
Shen Yuan retracted his gaze, shook his head and said: "One ear is enough. I really don't want to take another look at her current appearance. Why don't you go in and take a look? Don't let her go around and do stupid things. Defiled your house."
Yin Huai'an couldn't help but want to roll his eyes, but he held it back to save face: "You are talking more and more strangely now, as if she and I have something to do with each other."
"I take it seriously, Master Huai'an." Shen Yuan deliberately raised the corners of his lips and turned his face slightly to look at the people around him, "If I go to see her, it will be counterproductive. If you don't talk to her, I will just listen secretly. If we can get out of her mind and let her go with the Jiang family, it will not be a wasted trip, and this trouble for you and me will be over."
She was really not joking, her eyes were slightly illuminated by the approaching evening sunlight, and the color of the silver and vermilion was approaching bright orange-red, which was vaguely similar to the proud beauty in the temple. Shen Yuan did not deny that he She was careful with Yin Huai'an, and she knew very well that he couldn't resist such a Shen girl, at least for many years to come.
Fortunately, Yin Huai'an doesn't care about it, and maybe he enjoys it. In the end, what the oiran said makes sense. From the current point of view, the young master of the Jiang family is the best choice to properly settle Guanying. At this point, the two of them still have some ideas. It's highly common, as long as the result is what you want, it doesn't matter what the process is.
"You see, our life is so leisurely. Even an insignificant passerby is worthy of your and my planning." The owner of Zhoulai Manor chuckled, shook his head and reluctantly made a compromise.
It is always a bad idea to go in hastily. Dong Lian became the vanguard in front of the formation. In the name of delivering porridge, he came back to investigate and said that Miss Guanying had gone to the ground. She put her wide robe on her body as sleeves and waved it around. A lot of furnishings and objects were scattered; there was a powder box open on the dressing table. The customer painted her face white, her lips red, and her eyelashes covered with dark green. At first glance, she looked very beautiful, but she couldn't help but take a closer look.
"The girl stared straight at the slave. The slave was really a little scared. Miss Guanying also said that she didn't want others to disturb her, so the slave put down her things and hurried out."
Donglian retired after her success and was sent to the front to take care of the kitchen. Shen Yuan suddenly took a few steps, a gust of wind stirred up at the corner of her skirt, and the pearl on the toe of her shoe was half exposed. Yin Huaian thought she had changed her mind and wanted to marry Guanying When we meet again, I don't know whether to follow or stop.
"How do you think she will react if she sees me again?" Shen Yuan turned around and asked.
Yin Huai'an couldn't guess what she was thinking, so he answered randomly, probably losing control of his emotions, thinking that it was another trap set by the courtesan's wife, so that Guanying's old lover saw her in such a mess, and completely lost her last thoughts.
Shen Yuan showed his face and couldn't help but smile: "It's exactly what I thought. You know? Last time I came, she insisted on being aware that you happened to pass by and rescued her. It was also my arrangement."
"Remembering grudges but not gratitude is exactly what you said." Yin Huai'an complained quite a bit when he heard this, and heard Leng Meiren sigh quietly. In fact, in terms of figure and appearance, Guan Ying is a top-notch beauty. Unfortunately, I don't know if God is jealous of her beauty. If she is born in a dark place without proper education, she is destined to become evil-minded and go astray.
"When I was a child, I heard an old man say that if you endure too much hardship, you will become desperate. You will no longer believe in the warmth in the world. You will feel cold when you see the sun, and you will suspect that there will be a heavy rain in the next second." As he spoke, it was approaching. At dusk, the court lady looked at the sunset from a distance and recalled the teachings of Mo Zhan's grandfather: "But if you are blindly cynical and live in the haze of the past, you will never see that the rain will stop and the sky will change." Clear up - none of us are the chosen ones, and we all have our own pains and sorrows. If everyone feels sorry for himself and is willing to fall into eternal catastrophe, then what is the point of continuing this world."
If we talk about suffering, who in a single Lengxiang Pavilion is not suffering? It’s okay to be willing to fall. If you push others into the abyss for your own catharsis, that is the real evil, worse than the evil ghost. Poor people. Ah... there must be something hateful about it. These words are appropriately applied to Guanying.
"That's why I said that you don't hate Guanying very much, you still have sympathy for her." Yin Huai'an listened blankly, and then brought up the outdated conclusion. This chapter has been completed!
