We have arrived at the Qinhuai River. Although the Qinhuai River is not as prosperous as before, it is not inferior. There are colorful lanterns everywhere, the cries of vendors can be heard everywhere, and the singing of Nu Shu can be heard everywhere.
and the melodious sound of the piano and psaltery.
Nan Huairen walked all the way, looking around and sighing repeatedly. Mu Linfeng did not give Nan Huairen a chance to ask questions. He immediately arrived at the Qinhuai River and led Nan Huairen onto a boat. The madam on the boat couldn't help but see Nan Huairen.
After a few more glances, the girls who were accompanying other guests on the deck of the boat couldn't help but cast their eyes on Nan Huairen.
Mu Linfeng couldn't help but smile: "Mr. Nan stole my grace today..."
Nan Huairen expressed his confusion and then shrugged. Mu Linfeng quickly said to the madam: "Prepare a private room for us with a more romantic atmosphere and call in some girls who are good at singing and dancing..." After that, he took out a hundred dollars ingot.
The two silver books were handed to the madam.
The old bustard's eyes immediately shone and he said: "Okay, sir, please come this way!" After saying that, he led Mu Linfeng and Nan Huairen from the side to the second floor of the boat, and then entered the wing. The wing was very clean and elegant.
A fresh fragrance.
Nan Huairen frowned and asked, "What kind of strange smell is this?" He pinched his nose and scrunched up his nose.
Mu Linfeng quickly said to the madam: "My foreign friend, if you don't like the smell, please open the window!"
The old bustard couldn't help but look at Nan Huairen and said with a smile: "It turns out that this foreign guest officer can also speak our Central Plains dialect... It's really strange..." While looking at Nan Huairen, he opened the window.
Mu Linfeng immediately coughed a few times, then patted the book on the table and said to the madam: "Why don't you invite the girl? This foreign friend of mine doesn't like to be looked at like this..."
Hearing this, the madam nodded quickly and said: "Yes, yes..." After saying that, he left the room, but his eyes never left Nan Huairen.
After the madam left, Nan Huairen walked to the window, looked around and asked Mu Linfeng, "Mr. Mu, are we in the wrong place?"
Mu Linfeng asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
Nan Huairen pointed out the window and said, "Look there, those female writers are sitting on men's laps singing. What are they doing?"
Mu Linfeng smiled and said: "This is also one of our Central Plains cultures..." Mu Linfeng said this and couldn't help but think: "If I explain it to him like this, will he record it all when he goes back in the future?"
Doesn’t the ghost book think that these brothels are part of our Central Plains culture? Doesn’t the old book have to be the culprit?”
Mu Linfeng was thinking about it when there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and then he heard the Madam's laughter, saying: "Gongshu, Mr. Yang, the girls are here..." After saying that, the door of the wing opened and people rushed in immediately.
Seven or eight girls wearing heavy makeup and smelling of fragrance.
The looks of the female writers were quite good, but their temperament was a bit poor. When Mu Linfeng saw those female writers entering the door, they didn't even look at him, but looked at Nan Huairen in front of the window, just like foreigners seeing big girls.
Like a panda, he couldn't help but said speechlessly: "Alas, things are still more valuable when they are scarce!"
Thinking that in the past, when he entered a brothel, he would immediately become the focus of the girls' book, but now he was overtaken by a foreign ghost book. Mu Linfeng didn't know whether he was angry or funny. He couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.
The old bustard said at this time: "Gong Shu, these are Gillian, Ajin, Ahong, Ayan...the ones who sing and dance best here..."
Only then did Mu Linfeng notice that there were several nvshu among them. Didn't they just meet the ones accompanying other guests on the deck? Then he thought: "They must have known that foreigners were coming, so they came here out of curiosity to join in the fun and see something new."
Bar?"
Mu Linfeng watched the female Shuzheng step forward to pull Nan Huairen, and then looked at Nan Huairen. He saw that Nan Huairen was already sweating on his forehead. He kept crossing himself on his chest and murmuring something.
Seeing this, the old bustard couldn't help but whisper to Mu Linfeng: "Gongshu, is your foreign friend a foreign monk or a foreign Taoist priest?"
Mu Linfeng laughed when he heard this and said: "No, he looks like this just because he dislikes your girls. Could it be that when you open the door for business, you just entertain us with these vulgar fans?"
The madam hesitated for a while after hearing this, and then said: "Actually, there is a girl who is not bad, but..."
When Mu Linfeng heard this, he couldn't help but become energetic, and then said: "What's the matter?"
The old bustard shook his head quickly and said: "It's nothing, nothing. Since the official doesn't like it, I'll just change it..."
******Combating Piracy***This book is first released on 17K Literature Station***Please log in******
When Mu Linfeng heard this, he immediately said: "No need to change it!" Then he took out a thousand-tael silver note from his arms, slapped it on the table, and then said: "I want the girl you just mentioned!"
When the madam saw the silver note on the book on the table, her eyes suddenly shone, but then she immediately became very embarrassed: "I want to earn this silver note, but this girl hasn't seen anyone for a long time. Who can challenge me?"
He will only see her after seeing her couplet!"
Mu Linfeng knew that in this era, the more beautiful the nvshu in brothels were, the more pretentious they were, and their tempers were weird. They were definitely not easy to see. He was hesitating in his heart. Could it be that this nvshu was one of the eight beauties of Qinhuai?
Mu Linfeng has already met six of the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai, and four of them even live in his house. The remaining ones are Ma Xianglan and Dong Xiaowan who have not seen each other. Could it be that he is one of these two?
The more Mu Linfeng thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. And when the madam said that he had to meet the couplet before they would meet each other, the more he felt that she must be one of the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai. The female calligrapher of the brothel in this era was also one of the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai.
Nu Shu was the most talented person, so she said unhurriedly: "Oh? Do you want to pair couplets? Mom might as well tell me and let Mu have a try."
After hearing this, the old bustard immediately said: "Oh, it turns out that Gongshu's surname is Mu..." As soon as he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed and he said, "Gongshu's surname is Mu?"
Mu Linfeng nodded and said: "Exactly!"
At this time, Nan Huairen walked to the table and sat down. The Nu Shu next to him was still asking him questions. Nan Huairen couldn't help but said to Mu Linfeng: "Mu Gongshu, this... look... should we..."
Mu Linfeng stammered when he heard Nan Huairen speak, and then said to the old bustard: "Mom, please let these women's books go down first. What do you think of the face of my foreign friend?"
The old bustard didn't seem to hear Mu Linfeng's words, and then he slapped his forehead and shouted: "Could it be that the official letter is Mu Linfeng, Marshal Mu?"
Mu Linfeng nodded and said: "Exactly...but mother, you'd better ask these girls to leave first!"
The old bustard then said repeatedly: "Yes, yes..." After that, he quickly wrote to the group of women: "You all stand down!"
The group of nvshu heard this and were very reluctant to leave. They looked at Nan Huairen for a few times before exiting the side room one after another.
Nan Huairen breathed a sigh of relief, then stood up, walked to the window, fanned the wind with his hands, and kept saying: "This smell is really suffocating me!"
Seeing this, Mu Linfeng smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Nan, just take a short break. The performance will start in a while. The scene just now was just a snack, and the main course will be served later!"
Mu Linfeng said and then turned to ask the old bustard: "Mom, you haven't said the couplet yet!" The old bustard then came back to his senses, then sat aside and pondered for a while and said: "I always remembered it before, but now I can match it.
There are fewer and fewer people, and over the past year, I have forgotten about it. The official letter asked me to think about it..."
Mu Linfeng was not in a hurry, and then poured himself a glass of wine, and then said: "No rush, mom, think about it slowly!"
The old bustard suddenly clapped his hands and said: "By the way, the first couplet is 'Scholar, crazy student, unfaithful student, endless life', so that's what the couplet should be!"
Mu Linfeng pondered for a long time when he heard the words, and kept reciting the first couplet in his mouth, and then smiled and said: "This couplet seems to be made by this girl to ridicule those who read as a disciple, right?"
