After the song was played, Li San Lang cheered loudly, but his words were insincere. Although Lou Xiaoyi's knowledge of music was limited, he had heard a lot these days and had some insights. Although this woman's technique was skilled, she was far from being a master. She was far inferior to those musicians in Chao Feng Brothel. How did she enter the Li Residence and become a concubine?
He looked at Li San curiously. Li San was a little embarrassed and said,
"Second Sister, you say it yourself! I can't do this. In order to bring Master Lou to the Li Residence, I almost lost my life in the Gobi Desert. Isn't this a great favor to you? "
The musician, who should be Li San's second sister, walked over gracefully. She opened her red lips and spoke in a hoarse voice, a typical smoker's voice.
"Master Lou, this is the second time we meet, right? At the Spring Rain Pavilion at Xiaoye Lake, you even answered two of my questions! "
Lou Xiaoyi suddenly understood. To be honest, at the Spring Rain Pavilion, he didn't have the chance to see the faces of the three women behind the table. He wasn't in the mood to see them either. However, he vaguely felt that one of them had a voice similar to the woman in front of him. It wasn't that he was sensitive to women's voices, but this woman's voice was too special.
He hurriedly stood up, "So it was Second Sister who played the song. Little Yi, how fortunate! Third Brother hid it from me and caused me to be impolite. You should punish me with a cup of wine! "
The woman walked over gracefully and sat down on an embroidered stool a few feet away from the table. The fragrance of her fragrance was intoxicating.
Although the women in this world couldn't drink with the guests at the same table as in his previous world, they could still sit and chat.
"Master Lou, what do you think of my song?"
Lou Xiaoyi laughed in his heart. He had already guessed the woman's intention. She asked two questions at the Spring Festival and sent her brother to rope him in. What was the reason?
It was just an old cow wanting to eat young grass. What was so difficult to guess?
He had heard Qi Er and the others chatting about this before, saying that the richest Li family had a rebellious daughter. She did things in an eccentric manner and was different from the rest. She had married twice and caused the death of two children. Now, she might as well stay in her parents' home and be very carefree!
Originally, this kind of personality was very difficult to tolerate among everyone, but the Li family was rich. Most importantly, this daughter of the Li family was very favored by the old man. She was the only girl in Li San's generation, so she might be a little arrogant because of the favor.
The problem was, he didn't refuse! He couldn't go to the Turbid Brothel because it would tarnish the reputation of Lou Province. He didn't want to marry a wife because he was afraid of being restricted. Now that there was such a woman who had delivered herself to his doorstep, why not flirt with her?
He didn't need to spend any money, and he might even be able to pay for it. He didn't need to worry about his friends remarrying. It was better than those young girls who were like bean sprouts, right?
He had experience in dealing with such women who felt that they were different from the rest.
"She's average. She's even worse than the singers outside!"
Li San, who was next to him, kept glancing at him, but he acted as if he didn't see it. "For a strange woman like Second Sister, you don't need to take music seriously. You don't need to please anyone. Why bother?"
Second Sister Li smiled like a flower and pointed at Li San with her slender fingers. "You see, Young Master Lou is an honest man. What he says is honest. But you always praise my music skills. Do you think I'm stupid?"
Li San Lang secretly cursed his bad luck. He realized that he might have made a mistake as the middleman this time!
The four brothers had been secretly competing for a long time. In the end, who would be the head of the family and lead the whole family's business? It was hard to explain in a few words. This was also a common problem in a merchant's family. In this world, splitting up the family's business was not popular. Merchants all felt that splitting up the family's power and strength meant that it was a disaster that would eventually lead to decline. Therefore, they all had one son in charge, and each had their own focus.
His four sons were all adults. Although the competition hadn't reached its climax yet, it was beginning to show signs. Not only in business, but also in the internal affairs of the family. Each of them had their own tricks up their sleeves. Some started from their mother's side, some started from their maternal relatives, some worked hard, and some had honey in their mouths.
Li San's backer was his second sister. She was one of the few people in the family who could act spoiled and unreasonable in front of the old man. This time, the big incident in the Gobi Desert happened. Although part of the reason was to act as a pimp for Second Sister, after the incident, Second Sister did her best to help him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the opportunity to go to the capital to take care of business.
Originally, he thought that Second Sister was just curious and wanted to see something new. Because of the scene at the spring festival. Others might not know, but how could he not know? His second sister was a bit shrewish and did things a bit erratically, but she was not a fickle person.
In his opinion, the young master of Lou Province must have high standards. He would not marry anyone who was not from a prestigious family. He would not accept anyone who was not from a wealthy family. It was impossible for him to fall in love with Second Sister, whom he had already married twice, before marriage. With the status of Lou Province, even if he wanted to be a concubine, it was impossible for him to marry someone who had already married twice and caused the death of her husband's family. Therefore, it was most likely that they would meet and be friends. At the right occasion, they would support each other. What else could it be?
But with this meeting, as astute as he was, he could see that Lou Xiaoyi was not a well-behaved person. Looking at this situation, it was likely that they would create a pair of lovers to relieve each other's emptiness!
This pair of adulterous man and woman!
Both the guests and the host enjoyed themselves and left. Second Sister Li returned to her residence. Li San walked Lou Xiaoyi to the door of his courtyard, but unexpectedly, an old man who looked like a housekeeper hurried over. Lou Xiaoyi did not recognize him, but Li San was very familiar with him. He was the old master's trusted aide, and even Li San had to give him a few glances.
The old man handed over a roll of paper that was tied up with a ribbon. Lou Xiaoyi understood that he was not allowed to read it here.
"How can I accept this? It is already an honor to be received by Brother Li San. How can I accept gifts from an elder?"
The old man smiled and said, "Young Master Lou, there is no need to be so polite. This is a matter between the Lou and Li families. Young Master can go back and hand it over to Madam!
Young Master and San Lang will hand it over to you. It has nothing to do with anything else! "
Lou Xiaoyi could only accept it. With a slight pinch, he knew that it was also a piece of paper. Presumably, it was also an elegant item like calligraphy and painting. He dismissed it with a smile.
Seeing the old man leave, Li San said, "Xiaoyi, you!"
Lou Xiaoyi knew what he wanted to say and stopped him. "You don't have to say anything. I know everything!
The most important thing in a person's life is to be happy. Just like today, Second Sister is happy, your friends are happy, and the old master is happy. Why aren't you happy?
Why should you restrict yourself because of the so-called etiquette? Why should you make your friends and family unhappy?
Second Sister doesn't have much time left. She will get married sooner or later. Before that, why don't you leave him with a happy memory? "
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left. After taking a few steps, he turned back.
"Also, you have to pay more attention to my matters. If you don't do it well, I won't be happy. If I'm not happy, you can forget about being happy!"
Inviting a wolf into the house, this was Li San Lang's most direct feeling!
Forget it! In any case, he would be leaving Pu City soon. As for the matter between these two adulterous men and women, what did it have to do with him?
