The Chen family was a big family in Jiangning. This garden on the hillside was beautiful and magnificent. When Ning Yi rushed to the front, Yun Zhu and Jin 'er had already arrived and were waiting for him in the yard near the gate. Ning Yi appeared from behind and patted them on the shoulder. "You two are so handsome. You look a bit like the two girls I met last time. I wonder if you have a younger sister or something in your family that you can introduce to me."
He ran over to make a joke. Yun Zhu turned around and looked happy. "There is a girl named Yun Zhu. Do you want her?"
On the other hand, Jiner, who was standing beside Yun Zhu, had a hostile look on her face. Her face was already hostile to begin with, and when she heard Yunzhu's words, she became even more hostile. "This young master is also handsome. He looks a little like the girl I played with last time. Is that your sister?"
Jin 'er used to be in the Golden Wind House. Naturally, she had heard obscene words or all kinds of vulgar words. However, she didn't usually speak like this. At this time, she was obviously unhappy. After saying that, Yun Zhu glanced at her slightly. Jin' er snorted and turned her face to the side. She was a few years younger than Yun Zhu. When she dressed up as a boy, she looked even more childish. Ning Yi couldn't help but laugh. "A little kid who is still wet behind the ears knows nothing about playing with women. By the way, I saw you quarrel with Liu Qingdi. What happened?"
Yun Zhu looked at Jin 'er. "Liheng, don't tease her. Just now, Liu Qingdi made people angry because of this."
"What?"
"Actually, it's not a big deal. We came here dressed as men, so Liu Qingdi naturally recognized us. He told the girl beside him to come over and call her sister. He didn't know what to say and deliberately stirred up trouble. Then Liu Qingdi and his two friends also came over and said some strange things. They said what we did in the past and whether we were going to perform something today …"
Speaking of this, she smiled sweetly. In front of the man in front of her, there was no need to show too much grievance. After a few words, the other party would understand. Ning Yi nodded. This time, he invited Yun Zhu to come over with the original intention of watching the fun. In fact, there were only a few people in the upper class of Jiangning. Liu Qingdi could recognize Jin 'er. Maybe someone else would recognize them. Although they had turned over a new leaf and had a clear conscience, if they encountered such things when they were relaxing, they would feel indignant.
"They should have come together. I didn't think about it …"
"It's none of your business." Originally, Liu Qingdi came over to provoke them to directly expose their identity as women. Therefore, Jin 'er was also angry because of Ning Yi's greeting just now. At this time, hearing Ning Yi's apology, she turned her head and interrupted him with a frown. "It doesn't matter if we are recognized. We used to have that identity. We can't change it. It's Liu Qingdi who came to find trouble, not you. Why do you need to apologize … Humph, what kind of scholar is he? He's shameless to pester us. You can defeat him with poetry later and ruin his reputation."
"Do you need to be so ruthless? Ruin his reputation … And why do I have to do it?"
"You've apologized …"
"But you said it's not my business."
"I just said it casually." Jin 'er had always been a pragmatist. She could keep her integrity when it was needed and throw it away when it was in the way. Thinking about it now, she was unhappy again. She glanced at Yun Zhu and said, "And she has a sister to introduce to you …"
Hearing what she said, Ning Yi couldn't help laughing. "Okay, okay, I give up." He smiled and said, "But why don't you defeat him yourself?"
"I want to, but I can't defeat him."
"I'll teach you some poems. You can compete with him."
"Your poems … How can I use them?"
"Of course you can. For example, last night's wind and rain were strong, and I couldn't get rid of the wine. Ask the Curtain Rollers, and the Begonia is still the same …"
Ning Yi used to be an advertising designer and planner for a period of time. Therefore, he was good at writing all kinds of words and poems. But he gradually forgot about them. But after two years of exposure to various ancient languages, he could naturally remember more of these things. At this time, he continued to recite without any cadence. Before he finished a poem, Jin 'er's eyes widened. She lowered her voice and said nervously, "Wait, wait, I, I, I can't remember. Wait for me to get a pen and paper …"
Ning Yi smiled and waved his hand. "Let's talk about it later."
Yun Zhu also held Jin 'er's hand. Although she was used to Ning Yi's indifferent personality, she naturally felt that this kind of thing was not right. Jin 'er couldn't remember the words just now, but she had a general idea. She blinked her eyes and thought about it for a while. Then she asked, "Liheng, what happened after?"
"The eunuch."
"Hmm?" Yun Zhu didn't understand and looked at him innocently. Ning Yi thought for a while. "It should be, do you know, do you know, it should be green fat and red thin."
"This is a good poem, but it sounds like it was written by a woman …" Yun Zhu said softly.
Jin 'er also nodded. "Green fat and red thin … this sentence is so beautiful …"
"Cough, when I was young, a nun passed by my house …"
Ning Yi chatted with Yun Zhu and Jin 'er. At this time, there were already many people in the courtyard. On one side of the courtyard was a balcony close to the waist of the mountain. There were railings, trees, and flowerbeds. This was the place with the widest view of the mountain. At a glance, one could see Egret and the distant Stone City. Many rich merchants and students were chatting in the courtyard or the hall. Among them, there were naturally brothel girls who accompanied them.
Since it was an outing, the fixed itinerary naturally wouldn't be this courtyard. The forest behind the courtyard was actually the property of the Chen family. After everyone gathered, they would still go hiking together. At this time, people arrived one after another. Ning Yi had already seen Liu Qingdi, Cao Guan, and even Qi Lan and Luo Miaomiao. The woman who followed Liu Qingdi and Qi Lan talked for a while and pointed at Ning Yi. Qi Lan smiled shyly at Ning Yi, and the woman also smiled shyly and bowed. Ning Yi and Jin 'er were gossiping about this matter with the attitude of two men.
"This woman obviously has a crush on me."
"She's shameless. I used to greet people like this."
"But I'm different. I'm Ning Liheng. Qi Lan admires me so much. I must have told her just now. Once she heard it, compared with Liu Qingdi, she should think it's better to hook up with me … Well, I think we can take revenge on Liu Qingdi by picking up his girl."
"Picking up his girl?" Jin 'er didn't quite understand.
"Yes, it's to steal his girl."
"Is it … possible?" Jin 'er thought about it and was slightly looking forward to it.
"It shouldn't be a problem. After all, I'm a celebrity …"
"Well, pick up, pick her up, and then abandon her. You'll abandon her after you've started!"
"How can you be so evil …"
In fact, Ning Yi was not so superficial. He said this just to tease Jin 'er, who had recently planned to pick up Yunzhu. Recently, Jin' er had been suffering because she didn't know how to make a move on her Sister Yunzhu. How should a woman like another woman? She had no clue at all. She didn't know how to start. After all, they were close enough to be close to each other. They slept together every night. After coming out of the brothel, she actually understood some of the things that two women could do. But that was only on the physical level. She didn't know how to start on the spiritual level.
In fact, if she was really gay, she should have some real masculine ideas. But on Jin 'er's side, she regarded her Sister Yunzhu as a woman who needed to be protected. As for herself, she also regarded herself as an out-and-out woman. Even if she dressed up as a man, it was just for fun. She would never regard herself as a man in her heart. Therefore, her feelings for Yunzhu were only a combination of admiration, love, and admiration. But no matter what, when she heard Ning Yi talk about picking up girls, she became interested and discussed it with Ning Yi with the attitude of learning from him.
Yunzhu looked at the two of them helplessly. She could naturally see that Ning Yi was joking. Jin 'er might have taken it seriously. She occasionally rolled her eyes at Ning Yi. When Ning Yi gave her a "don't worry" look, she then turned her mind to the side and carefully pondered over the words. Then, she sang a few lines in a low voice and only stopped when someone came over.
The person who came over was the bearded Qin Shaoqian. Beside him was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old little girl. Behind them was his follower, Xu Xiaohu. Judging from the clothes the loli girl was wearing, she was also a girl from a brothel. He had just returned the day before yesterday, but he immediately brought a loli with him. He really had remarkable abilities. When introducing them, Qin Shaoqian did not pay much attention and said, "This is Miss Xiao Lu."
Xiao Lu looked at Yuan Jin 'er and seemed to know her. "You are … Sister Jin' er?"
Jin 'er had a strange expression. She looked at Xiao Lu and then at Qin Shaoqian. She cupped her hands and said somewhat absentmindedly, "I am not Yuan Jin' er. I am Yuan Jin 'er's brother, Yuan Bao' er." Obviously, she didn't want to hide too much because she had been recognized.
Xiao Lu bowed. "Hello, Brother Bao 'er."
At this time, Ning Yi also looked at Xiao Lu and then at Qin Shaoqian. After a moment, Qin Shaoqian reacted. "Oh, Xiao Lu, it's like this. She is only fourteen this year. Last night, when I went to Ming Cui Brothel, they wanted to comb her hair. Isn't that a sin? So I bought her, thinking that she could be Xiaohu's concubine. However, Xiaohu is afraid of his wife and didn't want her, so I had to take care of her …"
Behind them, Xu Xiaohu touched his eyebrows in embarrassment. Qin Shaoqian, on the other hand, had an open-minded expression, as if there was nothing he couldn't tell others. Ning Yi thought that this guy had just returned home two days ago, and yesterday, he went to a brothel to buy a girl. This was really bold.
Since Qin Shaoqian had come, Qin Shaohe had actually arrived as well. It was just that with his status, Chen Luoyuan had personally gone to greet him. At this time, he should be talking in the courtyard on the side. It was said that in addition to Qin Shaohe, the Emperor's son-in-law, Kang Xian, had also come today. Presumably, since a group of scholars was going to compete in literary talent and be at daggers drawn, then a few great scholars who could take advantage of their seniority to be the judges would also come. Kang Xian had always been a healthy person and liked to join in on the fun, so he rarely missed this kind of event.
Later, he could go over to greet them and ask Kang Xian and Qin Shaohe to give Liu Qingdi a hard time.
Thinking of this, in the courtyard over there, Chen Luoyuan and the others had already come over. Then, Zhou Bangyan, Li Shishi, and the others finally appeared. Presumably, most people had already arrived. Next, it was time to go for a walk in green and have fun. As for this walk in green and having fun, it was a fixed program that was not surprising. It was just a matter of how many people watched …
