Su Jin took a look and saw Huan Niang looking lonely next to her. She couldn't help but feel something in her heart. She thought about it and suddenly understood why Huan Niang was so lonely and speechless.
Huan Niang was born as a singer. Although she had never performed in such a bar, this scene must have brought back unpleasant memories in her heart. When she and Rou Niang were living on the streets singing, I am afraid that they often encountered people throwing copper coins in the street.
Then I saw the two sisters picking up money on the ground and laughing wildly. Seeing them again this time certainly brought back memories and made me feel inferior.
Su Jin secretly scolded himself for being careless. No wonder when everyone was about to come in, Huan Niang sat at the back and refused to come in. Now that she thought about it, it must be because of this.
Su Jin reached over, gently held Huan Niang's little hand, put his head over and whispered in her ear: "It's my fault, don't be sad, it's all gone a long time ago, I always remember those painful days.
It only adds to the worries, aren’t we doing well now?”
Huan Niang looked at Su Jin and nodded gratefully. She gently pulled back her little hand and glanced at Yan Biyun. She saw that Yan Biyun seemed unaware and looked at the stage with a smile. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on her face.
Come.
Su Jin was relieved. It turned out that women actually didn't want much. Like Rou Niang and Huan Niang, a pair of talkative flowers. In fact, all he needed was a look and a word of comfort to make them happy for a long time. He actually gave very little, but
However, the two of them were able to feel satisfied with this small contribution, and they didn't know whether it was their luck or their misfortune.
After the woman on the stage picked up the copper coins and blessed her with a blessing, she entered the back of the stage. The scholar beside the stage said loudly: "The next young lady to appear is Miss Xu Dongdong, a famous actress in the capital. If any guest is willing to order some music, I will say hello.
You don’t have to move, I’ll take the music book to your seat and let you order the music; Miss Xu Dongdong’s reward for one piece of music is eight hundred copper coins..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a woman in green clothes came onto the stage holding a pipa, bowed her head and said a blessing and stood quietly on the stage.
The audience was silent at first, then suddenly there was a buzz. Some people were excited, while others shook their heads and cursed. Some people even thought that 800 yuan of throat moisturizer was too expensive. After a long time of commotion, no one picked up the song.
Son.
The scholar said with some embarrassment: "Everyone, Miss Xu is a famous actress in our Bianliang City. In the early years, she was as famous as Master Chen. They were both the top names of Luliu Village in Sangjia Lane. I can't even invite her today.
It’s extremely rare to be able to come to our Lotus Pavilion in Zhonghuashe to perform, don’t you all want to hear her fairy voice?”
A handsome man in luxurious clothes stood up and said, "I can afford eight hundred cents, but what's the point of Xu Dongdong's old age and yellow pearls?"
The woman on the stage trembled and her head dropped lower.
The middle-aged scholar smiled apologetically and said: "Young Master is here to listen to music, but not to see people. Besides, Miss Xu Dongdong is only in her early thirties this year, and her style is still the same. How can you say that she is old and beautiful?"
Mr. Hua Gui pointed at the woman and said: "You old man is so incomprehensible. She is not old even in her thirties. Look at the chicken skin on her face. She could weigh two taels if it falls off. Why don't you go and invite her?"
A white-haired old woman comes to play? I know that Xu Dongdong is living in poverty, and that Liu Qi relies on her. I made all the money and exchanged it for yellow soup and poured it into Liu Qi's belly. I don't want to be taken advantage of, even if I have money.
If she is really short of money, I can take her in. How about you go and match her up?"
Everyone burst into laughter, and someone shouted: "Mr. Liu, you have a good idea. One moment you say that someone is old and young, and the next moment you want to take someone in. But you are lively and have more thoughtfulness than that frozen tofu."
Mr. Liu glared and said, "What do you know? I'm just not angry with Liu Qi, an old man in his fifties or sixties. Why are these people so devoted to him? But he has no ability and is eating other people's food. These women
He is also stubborn and says, "I don't want to wear silk, but I want to be with Brother Liu Qi; I don't want to be called by the king, I want to be called by Liu Qi; I don't want a thousand golds, I want to win Liu Qi's heart; I don't want to see gods, I want to know Liu Qi
Face. 'This is so ridiculous. In this case, why do you come out and sing, 'I don't want a thousand pieces of gold, but I would like to win Liu Qi's heart.' Since Liu Qi's love and care will not be exchanged for a thousand taels of gold, why do you have to do it for this?
It’s just a few hundred yuan to beg.”
Everyone was stunned and felt that this person was a bit strange, but everyone who knew him knew that this person had some background in his family. He usually wandered around and made rude remarks. Although they did not know what the influence of his family was, judging from his behavior, he was probably a member of the government.
, can't afford to offend.
The woman on the stage was trembling, neither leaving nor staying. Tears were rolling down her eyes. Everyone could see it clearly, but no one dared to speak out.
In the silence, someone in the far corner said clearly: "Xu Dongdong loves Liu Qi's literary talent. What can he do to you? But he is envious and jealous. If you have Liu Sanbian's talent, I'm afraid no courtesan will fall in love with you."
What? It’s just that even though your surname is Liu, I’m afraid you don’t have the slightest bit of ink in your belly and you’re just talking about sour grapes.”
Mr. Liu was furious and turned around and asked, "Who? Who is it?"
A young man in a green shirt stood up slowly from a table in the southwest corner. He waved to Mr. Liu who was looking around and said, "It's young master, he's here, he's here."
Mr. Liu stood up angrily and said, "Who are you? How dare you humiliate me? Why don't you ask me who I am?"
The green-shirted young man frowned and said, "Why are there so many street products like this everywhere? I originally wanted to take a stroll around Bianliang City today, but I encountered such a disgusting thing again."
A servant girl behind her said with a smile: "It's a bit strange. No matter where you go, you can encounter such buzzing flies."
The young man in green shirt pretended to be angry and said: "What are you talking about? Are you saying that I am a turd that attracts flies?"
The men and women at the table suddenly burst into laughter, and a pink young man next to him covered his mouth with a folding fan and laughed until he coughed.
The little maid blushed and said: "Master, please don't be upset. My metaphor is wrong. Master is nothing but dung. In other words, Master is the wild flower that attracts bees. Wherever you go, those pesky wild bees will come."
"
The young man in green shirt frowned and said, "Are you mocking me for being a promiscuous person?"
Everyone burst out laughing again, and four or five short guys standing behind the table were laughing so hard that they almost lost their breath.
The little maid blushed, grabbed the fan on the table, beat the five guys indiscriminately, and said: "I told you to make fun of me, beat you to death, beat you to death."
The five foodies hurriedly held their heads and begged for mercy. Su Jin said quietly: "Learn a lesson. Master, let me give you an analogy. Master is the white swan in the sky. No matter where you go, you will encounter a bunch of toads. Because, toads always
I want to compete with the white swan."
Xiaozhu took the lead in applauding and said: "Young Master is a good metaphor."
Five foodies quickly followed and applauded: "You are talented, you are really talented."
Mr. Liu was ridiculed by this group of people as if no one else was around. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth and shouted: "Why don't you come up and tear these bumpkin's mouths off for me, and watch me being fooled?"
After hearing this, several big men at the same table stood up at the same time, picked up the benches without saying a word, and walked back. The middle-aged scholar turned pale with fright, and hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him: "Young Master Liu, Young Master Liu, here you go.
Next time, I will just let this matter go and I will apologize to you."
"Give you face, do you still have face? Get out of the way." Mr. Liu stretched out his hand and pushed, and the middle-aged scholar fell on his back and fell far away.
Seven or eight big men aggressively surrounded the table where Su Jin and others were sitting. Mr. Liu squeezed in through the gap between the two big men, pointed at the nose of the young man in green shirt and said: "Where did you come from, a country bumpkin who dared to speak rudely to grandpa? Today
I want you to look good."
The young man in green shirt raised his arms and sneered, "I'm so scared. I'm going to be scared to death by you."
The modesty of the young man in green shirt made Mr. Liu even more angry, and he shouted angrily: "If you still speak harshly even when you are about to die, kneel down and call me grandpa three times, and I will spare you."
The young man in green shirt laughed loudly and raised his eyebrows: "Seriously?"
Mr. Liu said proudly: "Grandpa is true to his word. I, Liu Binhua, will never argue with a country bumpkin."
The young man in green shirt smiled and said: "Then listen carefully, I'm going to scream."
"Scream, louder."
"I really called you. You have to agree. If you don't agree, it won't count."
"That's a lot of nonsense. Can I refuse to agree to your calling me grandpa? Hurry up and call me."
The young man in green shirt was having fun and shouted loudly: "Grandson... please agree."
Liu Binhua agreed subconsciously: "Hey..."
Suddenly he realized that he had been deceived, but it was too late. The young man opposite him slapped the table with joy, pointed at Liu Binhua and said with a smile: "I agreed very easily, but where did I get a grandson as big as you?
It’s too late to get married in the womb.”
Liu Binhua's face was livid with anger, he waved his hand and shouted: "You lazy boy, if you don't give me a beating, you will beat me to death, and I will take care of you."
