Junze's large army was moving very slowly over land. While Gu Yu was waiting for him, he relieved all his burdens and had fun everywhere in Jinjiang County like a rich man. He also specifically chose places with a lot of people to go.
.
Restaurants, teahouses, gouran tile shops, and fly taverns truly experience the lives of ordinary people.
But now, she was sitting in a tile house listening to a play, waving her folding fan, very leisurely.
What was sung on the stage was actually "Mandarin Duck's Dream" which she once composed in order to take revenge on Zhou Baolin.
Du Yinglang above is crying and singing: "The good spring breeze can't blow into the deep palace garden, the good spring dream can't dream of the pink-sleeved green shirt, look at the broken white jade bracelet, look at the lonely man sleeping alone in the cold water, my bracelet...
, My dear Cui Niang, who knows that my liver and intestines are broken, my figure is haggard and my clothes are wide and wide."
The people below applauded one after another.
Gu Yu suddenly came up with the idea that if she were not the prince of Zhenguo, she might be able to support herself just by writing plays.
At this time, there was a commotion at the door, and a big-bodied gangster came from nowhere. He suddenly ran to the stage, took the hand of the little beauty, and cursed: "Your class leader can't pay off the gambling debt, so he has sold you to
I’m here, follow me.”
"No, no!" The colorful Cui Niang cried so sadly.
Du Yinglang took Cuiniang's hand and started crying, "Sir, please give our class leader a few more days, and the class leader will definitely get the money together for you."
The gangster said: "How long have I given you? You stinky opera singer, if you keep singing like this, you will never be able to pay it back in your lifetime."
As the gangster said this, he dragged the Cui Niang out.
Du Yinglang cried: "Where are you taking her?"
The gangster said: "Your sister looks good and has a good figure. Selling her to a brothel is better than singing with you."
Sheng and Dan were crying and shouting, and they actually acted out the tragic story in the play right on the stage.
The people who came to see the theater in Wase were all ordinary people. Although they were angry when they saw the gangsters causing trouble, they did not dare to go up to rescue them.
Some people, seeing that the atmosphere was not right, simply cursed "bad luck" and left.
Probably because of Gu Yu's neat clothes and extraordinary bearing, when Cui Niang was about to be kidnapped by gangsters, Du Yinglang actually crawled to Gu Yu's feet and begged: "Master, please help us."
Gu Yu crossed her legs and cried when she saw the paint on Du Yinglang's face. She lifted his chin with a fan and said, "He looks pretty good."
Gu Yu took another look at Cui Niang, who was being torn apart by the gangsters, with half of her shoulders exposed. As if she was moved by compassion, she said, "Wait a minute, how much does their class leader owe you?"
The gangster came over with Cuiniang in his arms and said, "I owe you twenty taels of silver."
Gu Yudao: "Where is the IOU? Show it to me."
The gangster took out the IOU from his pocket and showed it to Gu Yu. It clearly stated on it that he owed fifteen taels of silver and 10% of the interest. Calculated to this day, the compound interest rate has indeed reached 20 taels.
It also said that if the money could not be returned on time, the little actress in the troupe would be mortgaged.
The gangster said harshly: "What? You want to pay her back?"
Gu Yudao: "No, I want to buy her. If you sell her to a brothel, you are selling her, and if you sell her to me, you are selling her."
The gangster rolled his eyes and said: "She looks like this, and she can be sold to a brothel for at least thirty taels of silver. If you want to buy her, you have to get thirty taels, and the remaining ten taels are interest."
The onlookers gasped, a little actor, not worth thirty taels of silver, was clearly trying to deceive this young man who came to his aid when the road was rough.
Gu Yu sneered and said, "You take me for granted."
The gangster coughed uncomfortably and said, "Of those twenty taels, you can't lose even one cent."
Gu Yu ignored him and said, "Didn't you say that the class leader is the one who owes the money? Call your class leader to be a witness."
The class leader, who had been playing coy all this time, walked out from behind the stage with his neck hunched.
Gu Yudao: "Are you the class leader?"
The class leader said: "Yes."
Gu Yudao: "You two actors are pretty good at singing. I plan to buy them all and take them home to sing for me. Please give me a price."
The class leader was the same as the gangster. Seeing Gu Yu say this, he opened his mouth and said: "Two people, sixty taels."
Gu Yu sneered: "How dare you speak."
The class leader began to sweat on his forehead and said: "Then, fifty taels."
Gu Yu said nothing.
The leader lowered the price again and said, "Forty taels, it can't be any less."
Gu Yu then said to Pingsha beside him: "Pingsha, give me the money."
Pingsha looked embarrassed and said: "Master, two actors can't get forty taels."
Gu Yu said: "I was very happy to listen to the opera today. Forty taels is just forty taels."
Pingsha sighed, seemingly helpless towards Gu Yu, a prodigal son.
After the class leader took the money, he immediately returned the gangster's twenty taels of silver and happily pulled the two actors to Gu Yu.
Although the gangster was unwilling to trick Gu Yu, he was able to get twenty taels back from this poor class leader, which was already good, so he patted his butt and left.
Gu Yu closed the folding fan, picked up the chins of the two actors one after another, and said ambiguously: "Let's go back to my mansion, and you two will sing to me on the bed together."
Onlookers:!!!!!!
Do rich people play such exciting games???
The two actors were trembling and crying before they could speak.
The class leader took the money and didn't care about the life or death of the two actors. He said: "Following this noble man has a much better future than selling him to a brothel or selling him to me as an opera singer. You two have a better life ahead!"
Gu Yu went straight back to the mansion she rented in Jiangnan, and the two actors supported each other and followed Gu Yu.
When they arrived at the house, Gu Yu didn't even give them time to wash their faces. He pushed them into the room and said in a frivolous tone: "You know how to serve men."
The Cui Niang bowed Yingying, as if she was extremely frightened, and said weakly: "Yes."
Gu Yu said: "Then take off your clothes and let's get started."
The two of them were motionless.
Gu Yu seemed to realize something and said: "Are you shy? Go and lock the door. The three of us are in the room by ourselves and can play freely."
Du Yinglang went over to close the bedroom door and put the bolt on.
With a "click", the door closed, making sure that Pingsha, who was guarding outside, could not come in easily.
Cui Niang suddenly sprinkled a handful of poisonous powder in Gu Yu's direction.
Gu Yu held her breath, opened the folding fan with a "swish" sound, used the folding fan to cover the medicinal powder, and moved the chair back with her whole body.
Du Yinglang and Cui Niang pulled out the soft swords hidden in their waists and attacked Gu Yu.
Gu Yu pulled out the three-edged sword from the scabbard on the wall and was able to deal with both of them with ease.
There was a loud bang in the room.
When Pingsha kicked in the door, the two actors, one dead and one injured, were lying on the ground.
Pingsha said nervously: "Prince, are you okay?"
Gu Yu shook his folding fan and said, "Just loosen your muscles and bones."
Pingsha complained: "Why do you use yourself as bait again and again? If you have doubts, just go and arrest them."
Gu Yu said indifferently: "Don't make too big a fuss."
