When those people heard the sound and turned their heads, they saw a woman in a plain long gown standing not far away, she stepped forward, walked at a leisurely pace, her voice was calm and majestic, and there was a chill between her willow eyebrows and quiet eyes.

"Let them go." She raised her head and said again to one of the strong men.

"Sir...", "Sister!" Xu Mosheng and Shen Junyi raised their heads slightly, and every time they saw this person, they seemed to see hope.

Those four people didn't dare to let them go, and they didn't dare to do anything to the majestic woman in front of them.Shen Junlan saw that these people were just brave and intrepid and couldn't be the master, she shook her head, and said loudly into the room, "Shen Junlan, the eldest daughter of Shen Chong in Xianeichuan", she directly reported her background, "Can the officials inside give me the honor to discuss a business deal?" .”

No one answered inside. After waiting for a while, the door opened, "Let her in." The wealthy businessman surnamed Qian opened his mouth, and the strong man released Mo Sheng and Jun Yi, and the two followed behind Shen Junlan.

As soon as the door was opened, Shen Junlan became even more convinced that the other party was a person in business.She entered the wing room and looked at several people in the room one by one, until she saw Yong'er beside her. Although she lowered her head, she was extremely resolute.

"What do you want to talk about?" The rich man spoke first.

Shen Junlan didn't speak.

"These are all my friends, there's no need to let them quit, just tell me if you have any business." The rich man looked at the woman in front of him.

"Since you opened the door, you must also have contacts with my father. If you are a friend, please sell favors to the Shen family. Let this girl go today. She is my brother's sweetheart." Shen Junlan explained the purpose of her visit.

"Haha, the eldest lady of the Shen family only spoke half of what she said. Isn't there a quid pro quo for doing business? If I let her go, what benefits can your Shen family give me?" the man asked back.

"You make a condition." Shen Junlan looked at the man.

The rich man also got up, put his hands behind his back, thought for a moment, and slowly said the word "Yan Yin."

"Okay, yes!" Shen Junyi blurted out behind him, as long as Yong'er can be rescued, he will give whatever the other party wants.

"No!" Shen Junlan turned her head and glared at her younger brother, signaling him not to talk too much.Seeing this, Xu Mosheng quickly pulled Jun Yi's sleeve.

"If you want to sell salt legally, the government has to have the final say, the Shen family can't make the decision." She refused. "Give me the banknote on your body." She turned around and said to her younger brother, and Shen Junyi handed over the banknote in her arms.

Shen Junlan took out a few more banknotes from her body and patted them on the table together, "This is 1000 taels in total. You just bought this girl for 900 taels. I will pay you back."

"Hahaha, it's all small money, the key depends on whether you are willing to recommend it?" The rich man showed greed for money.

Shen Junlan thought for a while and replied, "I don't count the business of the Shen family with my younger brother, and I can't make the decision. I can only help introduce it. Whether it can be negotiated is a matter between you and my father, but my father should give it to me. Yes." She paused and continued, "If you want Shiobiki, I have one condition in exchange."

"Say it!" The rich man couldn't wait.

"Redemption for this girl!" She turned her head to look at Yong'er, and Yong'er was somewhat surprised when she heard the words, and met Shen Junlan's eyes when she raised her head.Shen Junlan turned her head back, "We have also returned the full amount of the asking price just now. You have not lost a penny and you have ended up in a salt-leading business, and there is no loss."

The rich man bowed his head and whispered a few words to his friends, and said, "Okay! I've done this business with you, and you can write the letter of recommendation now." He waved his servants to prepare their pens and inks.

Shen Junlan sat down and picked up a pen and wrote a few lines. She paused at the signing place, and wrote down her name "Shen Junlan" stroke by stroke. She hadn't written home for many years, and this letter was about to cause trouble. Thinking in my heart, I sighed.

She handed the letter paper to the rich man, "My parents owe me, they will understand after reading this letter. The rest depends on whether you, Mr. Qian, have the ability to get this business. I can only recommend it here."

"As expected of the number one talented woman in Neichuan back then! You are refreshing!" The rich man put away the letter, and the friends next to him were also very envious, and they applauded. Some people were there, but the only ones who knew Shen Junlan in Neichuan were old locals.

Everyone in the room focused their eyes on Shen Junlan. They didn't expect that the cold woman in front of her would have such a background. Even Xu Mosheng was surprised. She knew nothing about the past of her husband.

"It's your turn to redeem her." Shen Junlan stood up and ignored the man.

"No problem." He told the house slave to go out to negotiate with the brothel, "I have one more request to redeem her, Qian, and if it is fulfilled, today's matter will be considered complete." The rich man squinted his eyes at Shen Junlan.

"You say," she replied.

"In the early years, I heard that Shen's parents and daughters were all famous in Neichuan. There was a saying in the past that Shen Jiajunlan had no top quality silk and bamboo after she left. I didn't expect to meet here today, so why not play a song." The rich man explained.

Shen Junlan didn't make a sound, she was struggling in her heart, didn't she come to Wangshan to hide her name just to make herself unknown?With this tossing, wouldn't the years of wandering in foreign lands that I endured before become empty?

Xu Mosheng saw Mr.'s embarrassment, but if she frowned, there must be something embarrassing, "Sir, I will take you to play." She took a step forward, standing in front of Shen Junlan to negotiate with the rich man, "Master Qian, next time is Mr. Shen's apprentice, it is inconvenient for Mr. to be away, I can play whatever you want to hear."

"Which green onion are you? I heard she, Shen Junlan!" The rich didn't buy it. "Don't play here, go to the lobby, you cut my face just now, now she has to make it up for me."

"Okay! Just one song, and then the grievance will be wiped out." Shen Junlan returned to the man behind Mo Sheng without being humble.

"Okay! Okay! Don't worry, I, Qian, say one thing, and this girl Yong'er will be yours in the future." The rich man patted the table, picked up the wine glass, "Come, I'll toast you."

He handed the wine glass on the table to Shen Junlan.Shen Junlan took the wine glass, Yong'er hurriedly stepped forward to block it, but before she made a move, Shen Junlan had already drank the wine in one gulp.

Mo Sheng and Jun Yi looked at Yong'er suspiciously, and saw that Yong'er's face changed instantly, his expression flustered, and before he could explain, the man pushed the door open, "Please, let's meet downstairs." Shen Junlan let him go up.

"Yong'er, come here." The mother at the door had been waiting for a long time, "There is someone redeeming you, and you still have to go through the formalities. You can no longer stay in this garden tonight."

Yong'er nodded to her mother, and then grabbed Mo Sheng who was beside her and whispered to her, "Go down and protect Mr. Good, leave after playing the song, don't linger."

"Hmm! Don't worry, I'll pick you up when I'm done, and we'll leave here together." Mo Sheng replied.

Yong'er was still a little worried, she looked at Shen Junyi again, the man gave her a smirk, she frowned and followed her mother first.

Several people went downstairs, and the lobby was full of people. They heard that a famous lady was going to play music, and all the busy people came to the hall to watch. "I heard it's from Neichuan", "It seems to be some kind of talented woman", "a rare person with a background"... More and more people gathered to watch the excitement.

Shen Junlan stepped onto the stage, and the audience was packed with guests.From childhood to adulthood, she has played all kinds of pianos, played all kinds of songs, and seen all kinds of big scenes, but she has never played for these powerful clients in the brothel.She suddenly found it very funny, what seemed to her the most common thing on weekdays became a rare thing in the eyes of these people.

Why did she escape from Neichuan?Why did she stay in Wangshan?What did she go to the academy for?Why did she come to Chunze Building?What is she playing the piano for?She sat down with a sneer, and slowly plucked the strings. Her fingertips were like thousands of horses galloping. pour down.

Xu Mosheng stood in the distance and looked at Shen Junlan on the stage. She had never seen such a side of Mr., and the sound of the piano was like thousands of troops passing by her heart, and every note tugged at her heart.She didn't want her husband to sit there and let these people appreciate and judge, "I don't like musical instruments. This skill has brought me disaster." What Shen Junlan said to Xu Mosheng in the ancestral hall two years ago lingered in her mind. She seemed to understand what Mr. was saying.

At this time, Shen Junlan was not playing the piano, she was clearly venting all her emotions in the music, she couldn't control herself, she lowered her head and tried to play those Gong Shangjiao Zhengyu.Scenes of the past were changing in her heart, as if a fire was burning in her heart, trying to swallow her up.

Xu Mosheng felt that something was wrong. The gentleman in the front was still playing according to the score, but at the back it was obviously out of proportion, just playing randomly. She felt that Shen Junlan on the stage was somewhat struggling. For some reason, she was suddenly afraid that the husband would just fall down like this up.

She began to look for Sanniang in the crowd, and walked over, "Mother, something is wrong, sir."

Hearing this, Sanniang took a few steps forward and stared carefully at Shen Junlan's face from the audience for a while, the man's face was slightly flushed, and his expression was a little distracted.She hurriedly grabbed Xu Mosheng who was beside her, "Has she drunk?"

Mo Sheng recalled, "Just now I had a drink in the wing room, but it was just one..."

"Is it Yong'er's cup?" Sanniang interrupted her with a nervous expression.

Mo Sheng was a little scared. Yong'er had the same expression when she saw her husband drinking wine just now. She was afraid that there was something wrong with the wine. "I'm not sure, I took it from the table. Did Yong'er want to stop it?" She explained.

"That's right," Sanniang sighed, "It's carnival wine, and the hour is about the same, I'm afraid she won't be able to hold it any longer."

Shen Junlan didn't know what was wrong, she couldn't control her hands, and let them wander freely on the strings, but she felt so happy, feeling wronged and longing for something in her heart, she raised her head, and the guests in the audience were in front of her Turning around, she tried her best to find Xu Mosheng in the crowd, but she was surrounded by confusion, "Where are you? I need you so much." She thought to herself.
