Liangze? Long Er felt that the name was a bit familiar, but couldn't remember where he had heard it. He glanced at Li Ke, Li Ke had a miserable look, and he was biting his head and leaning forward to give the master's son an answer, when the old man Ju came back from the door.
"Oh, it's really no fate. Liang Ze's child, who grew up with Mu'er, learns piano and reads together. Originally, our two families were optimistic about them, and we gave him a kiss. Who knows Mu'er? My eyes are broken, and I don’t know what she is thinking about, so I just don’t want them. Alas, now everyone is married, and the baby is about to be born." Ju Dad said with regret.
Long Er's face was as black as charcoal, and his eyes were as bladed as he shot Li Ke directly.
Li Ke looked innocent. He didn't say this, Chen Liangze didn't find him, and he didn't make a marriage between the two at the beginning. It really has nothing to do with him. Master, don’t be too strong in your anger. He is a loyal and serious guard!
Father Ju didn’t know how to look at his face, and he still said, “I think people are doing pretty well, but my daughter can’t see her eyes and can’t do a lot of things. He used to love reading. Now I can only touch and listen to the sound of the pages, and the piano is played less..."
He said, he was still sad: "I think at the beginning, those piano masters didn't dare to teach her, saying that she played better than them, saying that if my Muer was a man, she would really be the first to compete. The title of piano master is now. It’s a pity that her mother went too early, and she was blind. She was so pitiful. She lost her temper and gave up the marriage. Liangze’s child said she didn’t mind and wanted to marry her, but she didn’t care. I hurt the feelings of the two families. Fortunately, Liang Ze is kind and has no grudges. Now people have a good life. I heard that Mu'er was injured, and I was still thinking about sending things to see her. It was really intentional."
Li Ke kept winking at Old Man Ju from the side. Didn’t you see that Erye’s hands were clenched into fists? Didn’t you see Erye’s face stretched out? Does the second master's forehead show a blue color? Daddy, are you a relative neighbour who came to visit your second master? What do you mean by the long time ago who decided to retire from relatives, but the second master is now, now, and at the time, the fiancé of the current girl, okay? Is it appropriate for you to keep nagging?
Father Ju talked for a long time, and finally realized it. He asked, "Second Lord, do you have tea?"
Long Er sighed and replied, "Don't drink."
"Then you drink?" Father Ju continued to greet enthusiastically, anyway, there is nothing else in his house, enough wine!
"Don't drink." Long Er's voice was still hard.
Li Ke continued to wink, daddy, it's time to ask Miss Ju to get up, see the master son, make him happy, what kind of tea to drink, what kind of wine to drink, this early morning, daddy Is this right for you?
Father Ju seemed to understand, and the topic finally turned back to Ju Mu'er. He said: "Mu'er hasn't gotten up, so she has to wait until she is full. Erye, do you continue to wait or stay to eat Lunch?"
Li Ke was choked and coughed hard. What is the difference between waiting and staying for lunch?
"Don't wait, let her sleep!" Long Er got up and walked out, with Father Ju busy following behind, and sent him outside.
Li Ke followed, very doubtful whether Father Ju could understand Erye's words by biting his posterior molars.
Father Ju gave thanks all the way, said thank you Erye for seeing Mu'er and took medicine, and said that when Muer got up, he would tell her Erye had visited her.
Long Er's face was frustrated, and he didn't say a word. When he got into the car, he suddenly said, "Don't tell her that I was here." He didn't want to be like Chen Liangze. If Father Ju told Ju Mu'er that Liangze and Erye had visited you, and put them together, then he wouldn't be stupefied?
So, I would rather not mention it!
Daddy Ju didn't know why, but he nodded. Li Ke sighed inwardly, this old man was too unhappy. As soon as he finished thinking about it, Old Ju leaned over to him and whispered: "Guardian Li, are your eyes uncomfortable? I see your eyes twitching all the time."
Leike suddenly felt his face tighten, and he felt speechless for a while.
Father Ju said again: "If you feel uncomfortable, you can treat your eyes well. You can't take care of your eyes. Doctor Qi Shi in the city is famous for his eyes. You can go to him. Mu'er’s eyes were also treated by him, but it has been two years, and I don’t know whether he changed places. I copied his address to you when I turned back, and you can check it out."
Li Ke knew in his heart that the old man was really kind. However, is it really appropriate to introduce a doctor who has not cured his daughter's eyes to others, or the kind of doctor who hasn't seen him for two years and I don't know if he is still there?
Li Ke glanced at his master son-in-law with a bitter face, and found that his face had improved. Sure enough, the embarrassment that is planted on someone else's head can heal his emotions.
Finally, the master and servant finally set off on the road at the farewell of Old Ju. After walking for a while, Long Er suddenly pulled the curtain of the car and asked Li Ke: "You said, how can you give birth to such a smart daughter like Father Ju?"
Li Ke didn't answer, and continued to ride his horse. That was the future master Yue Zhang, he didn't dare to comment. Take a look, the master said that people were cunning before, but now they have become smart again. He was itching to hate before, but now he rushed to see them early in the morning.
The heart of the master, the sea needle.
What can he say? He still didn't say anything.
On this day, Long Er was busy with all kinds of official business. Not seeing Ju Muer early in the morning but seeing Chen Liangze made him feel bad, and he planned to stop seeing her for a few days as a punitive sign.
He sent Li Ke to stare at the progress of the investigation at the government office, and urged the spies of the Long family to find clues.
In the evening, as arranged, he accompanied several high-ranking officials to Manxianglou for a drink. It has been closed in recent years. These entertainments are necessary, the relationship that should be taken care of must be taken into account, and the benefits that should be given cannot be less. These dragons are very clear.
After drinking for three rounds, a few dignitaries who are accustomed to wine show their true colors, and they hug the flowers and wander around. Long Er also drank a lot of wine. He was in a bad mood today, and he was a little dizzy. The flower lady next to him snuggled him to act like a baby, hoping that he could stay overnight like everyone else, but Long Er was not interested.
He pushed Hua Niang, went out to wake up, and asked the little servant outside the house what time it was. Then he felt that he had stayed late enough and it was time to go back.
Long Er summoned the mother in the building and explained that the expenses of the few people in the room should be counted on his account, so that the mother would greet Yunyun well. The mother responded happily.
Long Er went back to the house again and found a reason to say that he should go first. The two Hua Niangs who accompanied Long Er pouted and became unhappy. The men who hugged left and right didn't mind, anyway, it wasn't Long Erye that they wanted to hug, it didn't matter if he was there.
Long Er took care of everything and went back home.
The carriage swayed all the way, and he became more dizzy and in a bad mood. In fact, he doesn't like socializing. Some people's faces make him imagine that Ju Muer treats him like a pot of tea, but he knows he can't.
At least not that he can splash if he wants to. He has to look at the people, the situation, the background, the relationship...
Long Er exhaled and leaned against the car wall wearily. Everyone thinks he is very beautiful, but in fact, he is also tired.
Just swayed all the way home. As soon as he walked in, Li Ke reported to him that he found out that the officials at the government office today found out that the second person at Dasheng Restaurant and Fuyunlai Inn both confirmed that they indeed saw two large ingots in Zhu Fu's purse. Wanting to come, the murderer wanted to conceal his financial intentions, leaving a small grain of silver.
Long Er nodded, and asked if he had any other clues, whether there was a suspect. Li Ke answered no.
Long Er listened and waved his hand, only knowing that something is going to be discussed tomorrow. But Li Ke reported again: "Girl Ju is here tonight."
Long Er had a meal at his feet: "She's here?"
"She said to find the second master. After waiting for a long time, the second master did not return, she went back."
Long Er was half awake at once: "You told her where did I go?"
Li Ke hurriedly waved his hand: "I didn't say anything, except that the second master was busy with official business outside. Madam Yu took her to talk for a long time, I think she didn't seem to ask more about the second master."
Long Er think about it, they were making trouble this day, one morning and one night, and they didn't even see each other. He sighed, nodded, prepared to go back to the dormitory, and asked casually: "How long has she been away, did you arrange a carriage to take her?"
"It was arranged to be delivered by a car, just left."
There was another meal under Long Er's feet: "Just left?"
"Yes, the second master came back as soon as she left."
Long Er stood still, he thought and thought, struggled for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Prepare the horse."
Long Er rode a horse and went after Ju Muer. Just out of the city gate, he was caught up. A horse and a cart stopped on the side of the road and he got into the car.
Ju Muer looked more energetic than yesterday. As soon as he got in the car, she frowned, and then her face frowned.
Long Er hesitated, and asked in a low voice: "What do you do to frown as soon as you see me?"
"I didn't see you, I smelled you. Second master, you are more smelly than me."
Long Er squeezed to sit next to her: "Then it smells bad."
Ju Mu'er curled her mouth and dared not move when she was squeezed. After a while, she pushed him: "Second Lord, can we talk to Zhuting Pavilion?"
Long Er "hum", not only dissatisfied that she thinks him smelly, but also a little happy that she wants to sit with him in the bamboo pavilion. He drove the carriage forward to the bamboo pavilion, and got on the horse with him. When he reached the place, he helped Ju Muer down and led her to sit in the pavilion.
The evening breeze is breezy and the moonlight is bright. The scenery that you can see at night in this bamboo pavilion is amazing.
Long Er asked: "What are you doing here for me?"
"I want to ask how the case is going. But if the second master is not there, I will leave."
Long Er shook her hand, feeling that her fingertips were cold, so he simply put her bamboo stick aside and held both her hands to warm her.
Long Er talked about the situation of the case reported by Li Ke with Ju Muer, and after thinking about it, he explained his whereabouts: "There are more entertainments before the end of the year."
Ju Muer nodded: "I understand."
Long Er was very satisfied with her reaction, and her little hand slowly warmed up in his palm, and he was also very satisfied. He was smiling, but he heard Ju Mu'er ask: "Did you go to Manxianglou or Xichuntang?"
Long Er's smile froze.
Manxianglou or Xichuntang? This question is really...
Long Er coughed and coughed again. I was thinking about how to deal with it, but suddenly my mind turned and felt that something was wrong.
He was socializing at night, and he smelled of wine and maybe rouge pollen. She guessed it was not difficult for him to go to the flower house, but...
"How did you guess the name of the flower house?"
Ju Muer replied slowly: "The pollen rouge on Erye's body is tainted with the smell of wine, so it is a little fuzzy, but it can still smell like the two girls love to use. If it is pure powder, I will guess more accurately."
Now Halong Er’s face is going green. The man who often goes to Hualou knows what kind of pollen rouge the Hualou girl likes to use. How could his family know?
"Yixiangyuan likes plum fragrant, Yancuilou likes lily fragrant, Baihuage likes jasmine fragrant, and Yaxianyuan likes magnolia fragrant." Ju Muer could say other things.
Long Er's face is really green: "It seems that Mu'er has more knowledge of Hualou than me." That tone was really sour.
"I can't talk about knowledge, but the Hualou girl I know, I think there are more than the second master."
Long Er squeezed her hand tightly, Ju Muer cried out in pain. Long Er annoyed: "You are a girl, how do you know those women from the wind?"
Ju Muer wrinkled her face and murmured pain: "They asked me to learn the piano."
Long Eryi was stunned: "Learn the piano?"
Ju Muer nodded: "The second master must know that the girls in the flower house are also divided into three or six or nine grades. If you want to get more help from the mother, you must have color and art. Naturally, playing the piano and singing poems , Is the simplest arty art. Those flower girls don’t have to learn to be fine, they have a look, they can also be used by others. But if you want to be the best, naturally you have to learn a little diligently. When I am not blind , I was secretly visited by Hua Niang. Other luthiers were unwilling to teach. The luthier in Hualou picked someone to teach, so someone wanted to come to me to try their luck."
Long Er frowned: "Did you teach?"
"Yeah." Ju Muer nodded, "I didn't teach it at first. I asked her why she wanted to learn the piano. She said that because she liked it, but I didn't see the slightest joy in her eyes, so I refused. Then she came again. Looking for me, I asked her why she wanted to learn the piano again. She cried, and she knelt down and told me that she wanted to be an artist but not herself, but she didn't have an art. So I taught."
Long Er looked at her, her faint expression when she said this made his heart move. He wasn't sympathetic to the flower lady, he saw too many such people, he couldn't pity them. But Ju Muer's expression made him feel that there was something to be said.
Sure enough, Mu'er smiled, and then said: "She is very smart and learns quickly, but then she still sells and sells herself again. She has become an oiran, she is very famous for her beauty and art."
"She lied to you?" Long Er was a little unhappy. His family Muer was kind, but was taken advantage of? There are many oirans and oirans in this capital, but I don't know which one it is.
"I don't know if she cheated or not. In that kind of environment, maybe she can't help herself." Ju Muer sighed. "Later, maybe she missed her mouth when I taught the piano. Anyway, another girl came secretly. Look for me. Later, I was blind, but even the mother in the building quietly found me and wanted me to teach her girl to play the piano. Because I can't see it anymore, she's a woman, so she gets along better than those male luthiers. Those girls are not afraid that I will recognize who it is. You know, some of them are not very happy to meet people. Others are famous for their piano art, and they don't want to let others know that they have to find a master to learn piano or something."
"Why do you look for a famous piano artist."
"It's only well-known, it's not easy to find fans."
Long Er is a fan-seeker with bad ears, and the kind that is seriously bad, and the whole piano is blind.
He told himself that Mu'er was not referring to him, but he still felt awkward, so he cleared his throat, changed the subject and asked, "Then you taught them again?"
"Well, there is money to collect. I can't see it anymore. I want to make more money to support myself. The maids and girls are still very generous." Ju Muer said, habitually Use your fingers to make a flick. Her fingers were softly drawn on Long Er's palm. Long Er looked down and opened his palm to let her play.
"Second Lord, those girls are not what we think they are. Some of them are very pitiful and some are very annoying. I can’t teach the ones who hate them, and the poor ones I teach more. Then they know me well, and they say I listened to a lot of gossip."
"Like what kind of powder and flowers do they like to use?" Long Er is not angry, so he will have to clean up and change clothes before he sees her when he goes to the Hualou to socialize in the future?
Ju Muer smiled: "More than that, which shop the girl in the building likes to buy, what style of clothes, rouge... They all tell me, but I can't see it either. That's it. Each building has different preferences. Some of them also know each other. Sometimes they meet in the small courtyard where they learn the piano, and they make me guess who comes from. After playing with them for a long time, I can guess."
Long Er glared at her suddenly: "I didn't say anything silly to you, right?"
"Well..." Ju Muer turned her head to think, "They said that the second master has always spent a lot of money, and the mothers are very happy, but the second master never gives money, so the mother and the girls secretly Blame, is this silly?"
Long Er's face turned red, his dignity man! What kind of thing is being talked about by a group of Hua Niangs in front of his unmarried women that he will not give money?
He decided to take it as he did not hear. The wind just now must have been very strong, making it difficult for people's ears.
Ju Muer squeezed Long Er's hand tightly at this time: "Second Lord, I heard them say a lot about you. I think you are a good person. So Qinger became seriously ill from the rain, and I was anxious. , Will go to the tea house and beg you to build an eaves."
Long Er let out a soft cough, and felt a little airy in his praise for Ju Muer's goodness: "I promised that I will be able to repair it by myself, and I will repair it after the spring."
Ju Mu'er smiled: "I know Erye keeps his promises."
"This is natural." Long Er became proud, "I also promised to marry you, so I must marry."
Ju Muer laughed again. She was wearing a commoner, with a bandage strap tied to her head. She was embarrassed, but Long Er felt that the elegance of her body made him look very comfortable. He thought of Chen Liangze, who was also a bookish man, who looked a little like Ju Muer.
Long Er suddenly wanted to ask her why she insisted on retiring Chen Liangze's marriage. The other party has been with her for many years and doesn't mind her blindness. Why does she have to retire? It stands to reason that a blind eye is the most helpless and hesitating. It is more important to hold on to Chen Liangze to have a support. Why does Ju Muer come the other way?
Long Er opened his mouth, and finally held back no words. Since she was going to marry him, what was the point of him telling her these boring things?
The evening breeze came, her fine hair wrapped around her cheeks, he pulled it away for her, and Ju Muer asked at this time: "Second Lord, after getting married, can I still teach the piano?"
In Long Er’s mind, a group of Hua Niang and his wife holding a piano were discussing which building Long Er Ye went to, who he went with, which girl he ordered, how much money he spent, girl What did you say to Long Erye? How did Long Erye return? Where did the girl touch Long Erye? How did Long Erye release his hand...
Long Er suddenly got excited, and replied categorically: "Don't teach anymore, don't interact with those flower girls."
Ju Mu'er nodded: "Yes, if you are married, they know that I married you. In case you ask me how you are at home, what you said to me, what did you do, they said It's unobstructed, although I can't answer, but if they use this to tease me, it is really uncomfortable."
Long Er only felt the dark clouds cover him. He really didn't expect that not only was the outside socializing affairs gossiped about, it turned out that private affairs at home were also dangerous. He was stiff and stiff, and it took a long time to suffocate one sentence: "Actually...I don't go to those places very much. It's all about socializing and socializing."
Ju Muer smiled and said, "I know the second master is very good."
When she said so, Long Er's face was embarrassed. He cleared his throat: "Of course I am fine."
"Second Lord, I have thought of a way to find out the culprit."
Long Er was stunned, and then he sighed inwardly, whether this girl would like to speak like this. He felt that the gentle atmosphere of the two was just right, but she suddenly chatted with him about the flower mother. He was feeling embarrassed with a headache Huaniang's broken mouth, and she could suddenly turn to the case.
Chatting with her is not boring at all, not only is it not boring, but also thrilling.
Long Er breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What is the solution?"
