"Second brother, I can't take off her face towel."
He Xianya whispered, "Consider it a profit of one hundred and fifty taels."
Pang Yu hummed. The side of the painted boat was higher than that of the large awning boat. He looked up at the masked woman and suddenly said loudly, "I'm sorry for bumping into the girl's car. I'm a fortune teller and I know how to read faces."
If the girl is willing, I am willing to help her take a look and help her turn her misfortunes into good fortune and relieve her worries as compensation."
The maid was fierce, "A few country people still want to see my girl, and they don't even think about their identity. If they want to see her face, it's not your turn to see her."
"Don't hurt anyone by saying anything, and have someone check it out immediately."
The masked woman said softly, her veil shaking slightly with the airflow.
The maid responded, and after the woman finished speaking, she turned around and prepared to leave.
"The girl must have just lost her lover."
The woman froze and stopped on the spot without continuing. The maid was also stunned for a moment. She pointed at Pang Yu and was about to curse, but the woman turned around.
The woman was not angry and said, "When you see the boat, you know that I am a promiscuous woman, and my dealings are just benefactors. What I trade is tangled hair. How can I lose my lover?"
He Xianya and Guo Fengyou both looked at Pang Yu in surprise, as if Pang Yu was Wang Ren's upper body at this time.
Pang Yu felt confident and said patiently, "Young lady braved the drizzle just to watch others get married.
Marriage is not a rare thing for ordinary people. If the girl is from Suzhou, she must have seen it a lot. She must have felt something when she went to the deck in the rain today to watch it. "
The woman said calmly, "What you said is interesting, but maybe the slave family is just recalling the wealthy days of the prime minister's house."
Pang Yu smiled and said, "Then you won't watch poor people get married."
The woman paused for a moment and took a step closer to the side of the boat. "Young Master, let's see what kind of person my lover is."
"The family is well-off and full of poems and books. He should be about the same age as the girl."
"How can I see you, Master?"
Pang Yu thought for a while and said, "Human behavior is related to experience. Since the girl is the concubine of the prime minister's house, it can at least explain two things. First, she lives a wealthy life. People with a strong family will be able to ensure a comfortable family life and have children in the future.
Have a good time too.
Considering the opportunity cost of women, ordinary people would not be able to attract a girl's attention. Secondly, the head of the Prime Minister's Mansion must be a scholar, so even if he is rich, a girl might not be interested in him.
Therefore, the girl's lover must have a well-off family and be a scholar. As for his age, if he is an old man, the girl may marry him, but he will not be so melancholy and difficult to understand, so I will guess that he is about the same age as the girl.
If he can make the girl miss him, he must be a good character, and he will not be a person who cheated money and sex, or maybe the girl didn't recognize him."
The woman didn't understand opportunity cost, but she understood what Pang Yu meant. He remained silent and didn't speak. The maid next to him frowned and cursed, "Why are you talking so freely..." The woman gently raised her hand to stop the maid.
Yu looked at the veil carefully. There was a breeze blowing on the lake, and the veil was pressed against the woman's face. Although it was very hazy, she could feel two bright eyes through the veil.
Pang Yu felt that he was on the right track, and ignored the maid and continued, "But in such a family, all the wives are well-matched, and there must be many concubines. They are all on guard against others coming in to compete for favor. The girl's status is what they are targeting.
So what the girl is thinking about right now is that there is a lover as rich and talented as you, or even someone who is not rich, who can marry you like a commoner's family, without wives and concubines fighting."
"Young master, you said that a prostitute from the slave family shouldn't expect too much?"
"It is human nature to expect to have both, but the so-called love is actually not that important. Everyone just lives their lives.
If you marry just for love, it is usually irrational. It will be sweet at first but dull later, and it may even be bitter in the end.
I just want to say that when you can’t have both, wealth is more preferable.”
The woman's chest rose and fell a few times, as if she was a little excited, and then calmed down again.
He Xianya didn't dare to speak. He felt that there was a chance for the remaining one hundred and fifty taels. This woman was obviously moved by Pang Yu. If she worked harder, she might pick up the veil and let Pang Yu read her fortune.
The two boats were rippling in the lake, and they kept bumping gently with the microwaves in the lake.
"Then... what kind of person do you think my family is? If it is accurate, I will pay you a lot of money to help me read my fortune."
"The girl did not stay at home when she was home. She was willing to go boating in Taihu Lake all day long. This was because she allowed me to travel around the rivers and lakes on the boat. She had a false sense of freedom. This shows that the girl's heart is unruly and unconstrained.
"Being called 'the concubine of the prime minister's house' is, firstly, to raise one's worth in order to survive, and secondly, it is to show disdain for worldly views, but in fact, it is inferiority and arrogance."
There was silence on both boats for a moment. The maid stared, but because of the woman, she did not dare to yell and scold.
The woman said softly, "Although the rivers and lakes are big, they are like floating boats, just like duckweeds chasing the waves. How can you feel at ease?"
Now that the young master understands, I just said that I can help the slave family express their feelings and relieve their worries, but I don’t know what the magic method is."
Pang Yu said without hesitation, "Find another lover."
The woman sighed softly, "Young Master is very straightforward, but if you still encounter the same situation, you are asking for trouble."
"Maybe the situation is the same, but the girl can be different from before. In the future, you have to identify who is sincere to you and see who will redeem you with real money.
Compared with promises, I believe in money more.
If your lover doesn't redeem the girl's life, he is lying, or he has made too many promises to each other. After the girl hears this, she will smile politely. If you meet someone who is willing to redeem the girl's life, and the girl likes him, he will do it early.
Be kind."
The eyes behind the veil focused on Pang Yu's face, "Do you care so much about all the people you meet by chance?"
"What men like to do most is to persuade a good girl to cheat, and to persuade a promiscuous girl to be a good person. I cannot avoid being a vulgar person."
The woman covered her mouth with her hand through the veil, paused for a moment and said with a smile, "Can you please get on the boat and have your face met?"
He Xianya felt a burst of joy in his heart, but saw Pang Yu shaking his head, "I actually don't know how to read, and I met the girl by chance. I didn't intend to help the girl redeem herself, so I pretended to care.
In reality, it was just that the journey was boring and I was looking for someone to chat with, so I couldn't get on the boat, lest I see the girl's peerless appearance and be trapped in love."
The woman finally couldn't help but laugh out loud. She coughed and said, "I've guessed that the young master doesn't know how to read, but your mouth is so attractive. But you have also said that we will vow to each other to many women."
"Of course, they also smiled politely."
The woman covered her mouth again, endured it for a while and then said, "Talking to the young master has relieved a lot of trouble."
Pang Yu looked up at the veil and said, "In troubled times, it is a luxury for a girl to be able to go boating on the lake and be trapped by love. There are millions of people who are more difficult than girls. They are not sad about love, only sad about survival.
So a girl can feel sorry for herself, but she should also know that there is nothing more than love in this world."
The woman did not speak this time and looked at Pang Yu seriously.
"I have always believed that marriage is like a transaction. A rational transaction will bring the best results. If a girl has that value, she must find a lover who matches that value. This is an economic rule. If the girl follows the rules and finds a lover, she will definitely succeed.
You’ve found your perfect husband.”
Pang Yu cupped her hands again and said, "I'm sorry for hitting the girl's boat. There is no need to waste time checking it. There is no damage to the boat. I hope that everything will go well for the girl in the future and I will see her again if I have the chance."
After Pang Yu said this, he ordered the boatman to leave.
People on both boats didn't expect that they thought Pang Yu was trying his best to talk, but after attracting the woman's attention, he was about to leave like this.
The woman subconsciously took half a step forward and said, "Young Master has a lot of new ideas in his words. Can you help me understand this for a while?"
The boatman raised the oar, ripples appeared on the lake, and the large awning boat slowly left the ship.
"If a girl still feels troubled, she can solve it by herself and find something to do for herself, such as writing down her wishes and sending a drift bottle or something."
The woman chased after the bow of the boat for two steps, "What do you mean about the drift bottle?"
Pang Yu waved his hand and said, "Write a letter with your wishes, address, etc., put it in a glass...a gourd, and let it float with the waves. When someone is destined to pick it up, they will reply to you. It's very magical.
!”
The boatman speeded up the oar, and the awning boat picked up speed. The woman asked loudly, "Master, if you were to hand out bottles, what would you write down?"
Pang Yu laughed twice and replied, "Next time the eight thieves see me, just run away."
It was misty and rainy above Taihu Lake, and the awning boat was drifting away, leaving only a vague shadow of the boat.
The woman raised her veil at this time, revealing her beautiful face.
"I forgot to ask him his name. Who are those eight thieves? How come they have a problem with him?"
The maid pouted and said, "Sister, don't listen to this idiot's crazy words. What kind of person is Mr. Chen?"
"Hong'er, go get a gourd."
"Sister, you can't just listen to him and write the address out of order."
"If you don't go, I will go by myself."
The maid turned around and returned to the cabin, and the woman also walked back to the cabin. She rubbed ink on the table and wrote two lines of words: "Falling flowers are broken by falling rain, and the sadness is filled with the spring breeze." The signature was written with two words: Ying Lian.
It was a small print. I hesitated at the end and did not leave an address.
The maid brought the gourd, and the woman rolled the note and stuffed it into the gourd. She held it in her hand for a long time, waited until the boat sailed into the lake, and then threw it out of the window.
The gourd made small splashes of water and slowly drifted away with the light waves on the lake.
The two of them looked at the gourd going away in front of the window. The maid asked softly, "Who does sister want to pick it up?"
"I just threw it away, it doesn't matter who picks it up."
The woman withdrew her gaze and said, "Take away the guise of 'concubine of the prime minister's house'. We won't have to use it anymore."
The maid was stunned for a moment, then went to the back to give instructions to the boatman.
The woman turned her head and looked at the blurry Taihu Lake. The large awning boat had long disappeared.
...the bow of the awning boat.
"Second brother, why don't you look at it? You're missing one hundred and fifty taels for nothing."
"You know shit."
Pang Yu stood proudly on the bow of the boat in the wind and rain, "You guys are all staring at the woman. Didn't you see that there was a big crack in the hull of the boat when we hit it?
No matter how expensive the boat is, three hundred taels may not be enough to compensate you. I said those words to distract them, so how could they dare to board the boat and waste time? If they find out, they will suffer a big loss today."
