Dressed as an actor in the Qing Dynasty

A group of people are exhausted in cars and horses, and they are full of dust.

The shopkeeper of Fuyue Inn saw a convoy coming from afar, and the speed slowed down before reaching the inn, and then divided into two roads, the convoy continued to move forward, and the carriage in the middle of the convoy stopped at the inn.

The brocade curtain was lifted, and a man in a brocade robe walked out first. He was handsome and behaved elegantly and dignifiedly. He was not in a hurry to leave, but lifted the curtain with one hand, and stretched the other hand into the carriage. , a white hand was already on the man's hand.

Tsk tsk, what a loving young couple, needless to say the male, with such an appearance and temperament, he can be regarded as romantic and suave. Although the woman in the car has not met, she must be a beautiful woman. Soft catkins and slender hands, slender wrists, are they also the envy of ordinary women?

The shopkeeper thought so, but he didn't expect that the same man came out of the car.

The shopkeeper looked a little crazy.

The man's facial features were delicate and exquisite, a pair of half-pursed thin lips, and two slanted eyebrows flying into the temples, Gu Pansheng's posture had already captured the hearts and souls of countless young men in the world, the shopkeeper felt emotionally, such a romantic appearance.

Yangzhou has outstanding people, what kind of handsome man and pretty daughter he has never seen before, but this is the first time he sees such a stunning person today, it makes him wonder, is there really such a fairy in the world?

After receiving all kinds of thoughts, the shopkeeper hurriedly sent his assistant to greet them. Seeing that the two people were dressed in clothes, they were either rich or expensive. This Yangzhou was originally a place where princes and princes gathered for entertainment. If they were negligent, he would not be offended.

"Three guest officials, do you want to stay in the hotel? The younger ones can tell at a glance that a few of them are from the capital. Tsk tsk, I didn't say that, the younger ones have sharp eyes. It's probably the first time for a few of you to come to our Yangzhou city Come on, let me put my words here, come to Yangzhou City, eat, drink, have fun, and you will live happier than a god."

Look at this mistress who can talk, Su Qingchi and Shang Chengde smiled at each other, Shang Chengde said, "It seems that we are in the right place."

The store clerk slapped his chest, "That's natural. You are newcomers, and you may not be familiar with our Yangzhou city. The younger generations are all here in Yangzhou city. As long as you open your mouth, the rest will be covered by the little one." body, Bao makes you so satisfied that you can’t close your mouth from ear to ear.”

Su Qingchi also thought that the waiter in this store was interesting, so he smiled and said, "Then I have to trouble the waiter."

The shop assistant was frothing at first, but now he stuttered, his face was familiar and familiar, and his eyes were straight.

The shopkeeper coughed behind the counter, cursing inwardly, this is useless.

Xiaoer came back to his senses, hehehe scratched his head and smirked, "Master, you are so good-looking, so good-looking, hahaha..."

Teased by the naive look of the shop assistant, the bumps and fatigue of the past few days dissipated, and several people went upstairs with the shop waiter.

This city of Yangzhou is already prosperous, full of humanities, and outstanding people. After several generations of ups and downs, it has become a first- and second-class romantic place.

Scenic spots and historical sites are everywhere, literati and poets gather, there are Qushui tea, Jiangnan minor tunes, picturesque Jiangnan, watery Yangzhou, it is no wonder that talented scholars and literati in the past dynasties always splash ink and sway a romantic hero, as if they do not leave a trace in this spiritual place. With two quaint words and erotic songs, they have dishonored their romantic reputation.

Washed and dusted, the two changed their attire. They were also dressed in plain brocade and satin gowns. Walking together like this, they immediately attracted the eyes of half a street passerby. It was the first time that Shang Chengde was stared at like this. Unable to adapt, looking at Su Qingchi on the other hand, with a clear expression on his face, it seems that he has not noticed the eyes of others, and it seems that there is only this ancient alley between the world and the world, and all the glory and cloud shadows of the world are only in the eyes of this crowd.

Feeling so charming in his heart, Shang Chengde couldn't help holding the man's fingers, because under the eyes of everyone, he couldn't be intimate with each other freely, and being able to touch the other party's fingertips like this was enough.

Su Qingchi turned his head to look at him, and smiled slightly, barely noticeable, but it filled Shang Chengde with joy.

Both of them were more or less tired after the bumpy rides and horses. Now that they came out this time, they had plenty of time. Since they wanted to travel in this water town, they were not in a hurry, so the two wandered along the ancient alley. I ordered some special wine and dishes in the restaurant, and returned after dinner.

Yangzhou is a traffic channel, and it is also a place where five directions meet and winds come from all directions. Begging beggars, magicians who cheat money, entertainers, monks who beg for alms, busy porters, prostitutes who throw gold, young knights, Scoundrels looking for nourishment, matchmakers with heavy make-up, and prostitutes who make fun of each other, these kinds of beings are more lively than the capital.

There is an endless stream of business travelers along the street, and there are constant hawkers and yells. Some sell tin buckets, some sell bird embroidery, some sell antique calligraphy and paintings, and there is also a big iron pot on the street, holding a shovel to stir-fry sweet-scented osmanthus The strong aroma of chestnuts has attracted many diners.

This scene seems to melt all the lively business in the world.

Seeing Su Qingchi stop in front of a stall, Shang Chengde asked with a smile, "But what do you want to buy, I'll buy it for you."

Su Qingchi shook his head, and picked up a simple and unadorned bra.

Seeing that the two were dressed in extraordinary clothes, the peddler picked out the best pair of clothes, held it in his hand, and deliberately showed the jade pendant hanging under the bag, "I didn't say that the one in your hand is not as good as this one, you If you sincerely want it, how about I give you a little bit cheaper?"

The peddler originally thought that if the other party wanted it, he would raise the price, but he didn't expect that the other party only wanted the drill that was not worth a few pennies, let alone the price, that person had already put a few pennies on the stall.

The two stopped and stopped, and when they arrived at the inn, it was already half dark. Seeing that someone had returned, Lu Qing ordered the waiter to bring the food into the house.

The convoy had already been arranged elsewhere earlier. Firstly, there were too many people, disturbing the cleanliness. Secondly, those people were not from the business, but were brought from various branches under the name of the business. It was not good for Shang Chengde to be too close to Su Qingchi. , Then another person was arranged to wait elsewhere.

Now there is only one more Lu Qing in Fuyue Inn to serve him. No matter how careful and considerate outsiders are, they are not as comfortable as those who are familiar with their own living habits. Besides, Lu Qing is not an outsider, so Shang Chengde doesn't have to hide anything in front of him.

The three of them were divided into two upper rooms, Su Qingchi lived in Room A of Tianzihao, and Shang Chengde, master and servant, lived in Room B of Tianzihao.

The night is as cool as water, and the inn is now quiet.

It is said that three parts of the world are bright moonlit nights, and two parts are rascals in Yangzhou. From this point of view, it is true.

Although it’s not March with fireworks, there is no such bright purples and reds, and there is no misty rain, but the moonlight covered with thin snow is more and more charming, the sky is covered with a layer of tulle, and there is only a round of clear moon shining like a hook Hanging on the ground, it was three parts tender and seven parts like water.

"Don't wear so little, isn't it cold?" Shang Chengde lightly draped a warm robe on Su Qingchi's body, and wrapped his arms around Su Qingchi.

Su Qingchi smiled sideways, "Why did you come out, I thought you had fallen asleep."

Shang Chengde lowered his head and sniffed lightly, and rubbed his pillow on Su Qingchi's shoulder twice, as if acting coquettishly, "I can't sleep."

Su Qingchi laughed, and leaned into the broad chest behind him, "Chengde?"

"Ah."

"Someone came to you at night, claiming to be a servant of Cheng's mansion, and said that as long as I tell you about Cheng's mansion, you will know."

Shang Chengde sighed, "I wanted to take you to swim in Slender West Lake tomorrow, but they moved so fast, they got the news when I arrived."

Su Qingchi understood, "If my guess is correct, it is Cheng Yanqiu from Jiangnan Brocade who is looking for you."

"Well, [-]% of the goods of the silk and satin shop under the merchant's name come from Yangzhou, and [-]% of them are provided by Jiangnan Cheng's family. The two malls have always had business contacts, and their friendship is not bad, but a few days ago there was a relationship between the two There are some problems with the trade, and the Cheng family probably wants to terminate the contract, and the Cheng family has always been faithful, so there is probably something wrong with this matter."

"That being the case, it's better to find out the reason earlier."

"Then you are here alone, isn't it boring? If you are with me."

"I have never had much friendship with Cheng Yanqiu, and it would be abrupt to go there. Besides, I happen to be going out tomorrow."

"You don't know where you live here, where are you going?"

Su Qingchi said with a smile, "I lived here for two years three years ago, so I'm afraid I know Yangzhou better than you."

"Why haven't I heard you say that?"

"There's nothing to say at all. If there were no old friends here, I wouldn't be here."

"Old man?"

Shang Chengde still wanted to ask more questions, but Su Qingchi refused to say any more, and just sent him to sleep, "Since we are going to Cheng's residence tomorrow, we should rest earlier."

The next day, Lu Qing took care of Shang Chengde to wash and re-braided his hair.

Shang Chengde felt that the braided braid looked familiar, so he asked, "Where did you buy it?"

"Young Master, are you confused? Didn't you buy this yourself? When you and Boss Su came back yesterday, he gave this to me, saying that you left it with him, and asked me to give it to you." Lu Qing Jie had braided hair, and said again, "At first, I wondered why, young master, you chose such an ordinary drill, but after seeing this jade, I realized that I don't know what to buy."

Shang Chengde was happy at first, but then he was puzzled. He lowered his head and saw that there was indeed a piece of suet white jade falling under the drill.

I can't help holding it in my hand and stroking it carefully. My hands are cool but not ice-cold. They are as delicate as fat, and the carvings are lifelike. When I touch them with my fingertips, I find that there are words on the back of the jade. When I turn it over and look carefully, I see a line of fine and small characters on it: "Lifetime" One generation, one couple, arguing to teach two ecstasies?Lovesickness looks at each other but does not have a blind date, who is the spring for?

The words and sentences are taken from Nalan Xingde's "Hua Tang Chun". There are 26 characters. The characters are sad and charming, but they are sincere, which made Shang Chengde feel blocked for a while.

Shang Chengde didn't care that Lu Qing was still braiding his hair, so he stood up suddenly and ran out the door.

But he saw that the door of the next room was closed.

Lu Qing chased him out and shrugged helplessly, "Master, Boss Su has already left the house."

Shang Chengde held the jade with a lot of feelings in his heart.
