Chapter Eleven: Slanting Wind and Drizzle

Ye Qing knew that Li Heng really fell in love with Lao Liu's three daughters, and it can even be said that he fell in love at first sight. In addition, his mother is in poor health now, and she has always hoped that Li Heng can start a family and start a business quickly. So now Li Heng has no other way, so he can only hope that Lao Liu's mind will suddenly become abnormal one day and can marry his three daughters.

But the greedy old Liu is now snobbish and smart. He has always hoped that his three most beautiful daughters can marry a wealthy family, not like her two sisters, who both married an ordinary family, so that he could never exhale in front of neighbors.

Not long after returning to the yard, when it was just dark, Su Jinsheng walked over again, asked Ye Qing how he felt during the day, and told them that Mr. Yan said that there was nothing wrong these days recently, and there were guards and servants at home on the night patrol, so they could go home first.

But...If there is anything in the mansion in the future, I hope Ye Qing and the others will not refuse and help the Yan Mansion patrol and guard. After all, they are one of the best wealthy businessmen in Lin'an, and some thieves may be targeting Yan Mansion.

Ye Qing naturally couldn't refuse. After spending a day with Su Jinsheng, he also had a good impression of Su Jinsheng. This housekeeper in Yan Mansion was definitely not an ordinary person.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the Seven-Observer Linglongxin, and he is definitely the trusted confidant of Yan Hongyuan and Yan Qingcheng.

After leaving Yan Mansion, walking to the streets of Qinghefang, watching the lights rising, the endless stream of Yu Street did not become deserted because the sky was already dark, but on the contrary, it seemed more lively and noisy than during the day.

Passing by the Yongjin Tower, which was passing by in the morning, Old Liu's eyes once again radiated a wolf-like light. He looked at the sedan chair and carriage at the door, and then at the magnificent and brilliant gate of the Yongjin Tower, and even wanted to leave his eyes at the door of the restaurant.

The sound of silk and bamboos singing and dancing, the sound of literati and scholars reciting, and the euphemistic singing of the graceful lady, from time to time, float outside through the windows of the Yongjin Tower.

"Stop looking, you can't get in even if you look at it, right?" Ye Qing dismissed Zhao Qier and others, and pushed Old Liu's head next to him and said.

"Tsk tsk, if I can enter Yongjin Tower for a happy life in this life, I will be willing to die." Old Liu shook his head and said enviously.

"If Li Heng invited you to this Yongjin Tower one day, would you dare to agree to marry his three daughters?" Ye Qing said, looking at the crowded Yongjin Tower, and Fengle Tower, which was also magnificent and magnificent, not far away.

These two families are the top fireworks entertainment places in Qinghefang and even the entire Lin'an City. They are basically full every day and night. According to legend, the women here are no worse than the stunning beauty in the West Lake painting boat outside the city.

"Ha, is it possible? If Li Heng really had so much money to invite me to enjoy it in this Yongjin Tower, I would really be willing to betroth his three daughters! But... is this possible? The monthly salary is not enough to treat his sick mother, and I also invited me to the Yongjin Tower. Every time he comes to the Third Aunt Tavern, you will treat you, right? Don't dream." Old Liu's head was very excited, and was dispelled by Ye Qing's words. His eyes returned to reality and began to follow Ye Qing and walk towards the north city of Lin'an City.

The two of them just walked a short distance and saw that the family, both grand and occupies an area, stood in front of them, which was comparable to the Yongjin Tower, and the Fengle Tower, which was comparable to the Yongjin Tower. However, compared with the first two, this family was slightly less popular, but even so, a large area of ​​carriages and sedan chairs at the door were stopped, and the sound of piano and singing was sad, and it faintly emerged from the window.

Old Liu didn't recognize his words. Obviously he didn't know that there was a fireworks place here, so he looked at the big words on the door plaque and asked, "What are you writing?"

"Slant Breeze and Drizzle Building." Ye Qing answered, while carefully looking at the Slant Breeze and Drizzle Building. From outside, he looked at the windows with lights and the plaques that revealed a new atmosphere at the door. Obviously, this is a new fireworks place to compete with Yongjin Tower and Fengle Building for wealth.

"Is it a new one? I haven't heard of it before." Old Liu looked at the grand plaque and murmured.

Just as the two of them glanced and were about to walk forward, they suddenly became lively at the door, and then a guy's shout came. As the guy's attractive cry sounded, a large open space was instantly vacant at the door, followed by a dazzling scene of setting off fireworks.

As the fireworks burned out, the smoke and dust at the scene had not yet dissipated. At this time, the door was surrounded by pedestrians watching the excitement on the street.

Just when everyone thought that the guy was about to shout: The Slightly Wind and Drizzle Building was about to start officially, he saw a red character slowly rising from the side of the gate.

The words with red as the base and black as the character, and it was a poem that slowly rose up.

Then, the window on the second floor directly above the gate suddenly opened. In the bright room, a slim woman in a white dress, wearing a veil, bowed to everyone outside the window, and then some brightly dressed women behind her followed the woman in front to salute the people downstairs.

The woman in white slowly sat down in front of the guzheng that had been placed in front of the window, then looked up and looked out the window again, took a deep breath, and her white and slender fingers rested on the strings.

As the sound of the prelude sounded, people's attention was concentrated, and the sound of nature slowly flowed from the woman's mouth: "The courtyard is depressed, and the wind is drizzling, and the door must be closed. The willows and flowers are close to the cold food, and all kinds of annoying weather. The dangerous poem is completed, and the wine is sober, which is different from the leisure taste. After the brink of brides, thousands of thoughts are hard to send."

"There are a few days of spring cold upstairs, the curtains are hanging on all sides, and the jade railings are lazily leaning on them. The new dream is scattered by the cold and the new dream is not allowed to be sad. The clear dew flows in the morning, the new tung trees are first attracted, and there is so much spring outing. The sun is high and the smoke is closed, and it is even more clear today."

With the woman's natural sound, the black words on the red words were sung from the first to the last sentence. Even the sound of the piano disappeared. However, the entire slanting wind and drizzle building were still in a daze, not even a single applaud, obviously still immersed in the woman's slightly sad and natural sound.

I don’t know how long it took, just when Ye Qing wanted to pull Lao Liu’s head home, there were cheers and cheers like tsunamis among the onlookers. As the people watching the fun outside began to cheer, the wealthy and wealthy businessmen who had been invited into the Sceiling Wind and Drizzle Building in advance began to applaud in the lobby on the first floor.

Some people in the hall even interrupted their thoughts by the cheers outside, and their expressions were a little dissatisfied. They obviously thought that the people watching the fun outside were not worthy of listening to such a good sound of nature.

But they also knew that this was a way for the Sceiling Fengyu Building to compete for the lottery with Yongjin Building and Fengle Building, so they could only sigh and recall the sound of the heavenly sound that was enough to surround the beam for three days in their hearts: Nian Nujiao.

As the window on the second floor was ruthlessly closed after the woman in white saluted, it also made everyone watching the excitement on the street involuntarily reveal a look of loss. It was obvious that the woman in white just now had already shocked them, both in body and singing, as if she was a fairy falling from the sky.

Among the unsatisfied people, Lao Liu's head was woken up by Ye Qing's scabbard, and said three good words in succession, then shook his head and continued to recall, "I, Lao Liu, have finally lived in vain in my life. The first time in my life I saw someone like a fairy singing songs. I am a fairy. It's so wonderful, so beautiful, so beautiful."

Ye Qing also knew that it was obviously impossible for Old Liu to come up with any elegant words of praise, but Ye Qing was still a little surprised by the woman in white singing Li Qingzhao's lyrics.

"That girl is covered with a veil. Which eye do you see is a fairy? Maybe because she is ugly, she is afraid that you will not dare to come to this slanting wind and drizzle building in the future, so she wears a veil. It's just that the sound is nice." Ye Qing ruthlessly hit the fairy in Old Liutou's heart.

"You...you...you are not as happy as you, aren't you moved with such a nice voice? How long has it been since I, Lao Liu, heard a song? How many people in Lin'an City have such good fortune? I'm afraid that only these people have good fortune. Others, I envy me, Lao Liu."

Old Liu still respects Ye Qing very much, so he is not good at being serious with Ye Qing, so he has to find a sense of superiority and comfort for himself from other angles, and quickly put the beautiful words in his heart against Ye Qing quickly behind his mind.

After passing by the surprise brought by the Slanting Breeze and Drizzle Building on Yu Street, the two walked home smoothly, but they didn't notice it. Just in the crowd just now, the two golden men they met yesterday had noticed them.

Back at the dark home, the yard was silent, and only a faint light was still on on the second floor, proving that Bai Chun had not yet rested.

Ye Qing, who was standing in the yard, looked at the quiet and dark yard, and then thought about the scene of the brightly lit mansion of Yan Mansion when he came out of Yan Mansion just now. His ambition aroused by the magnificent garden of Yan Mansion this morning appeared in his mind again. I really hope that one day I will have such a mansion.

Originally, Ye Qing thought that after experiencing life and death, he would be able to take everything in the world indifferently and would no longer pursue or ambition about things outside. As long as he could fill his stomach with three meals a day and be safe, he would be enough to live a lifetime in this strange era.
