MTL - Little Cardamom-Chapter 30

Earlier, Shui Ying thought this marriage was very boring.

The fourth young lady of the Ming family, presumably, was no different from the other ladies in Beijing, dignified and quiet, and at the same time kept etiquette to the point of rigidity.

Their master is already dull and indifferent enough, and if there is another well-behaved and boring mistress, there is no need to expect that their master will have a tough and tender side in his lifetime.

But now, Shui Ying thinks this marriage is interesting.

She was full of smiles, poured a glass of fruit wine for Ming Tan and Bai Minmin, and said a few polite words.

Ming Tan and Bai Minmin picked it up, but there was no sign of drinking.

Shui Ying smiled knowingly: "This wine is very sweet, specially prepared for my daughter's family, the two young ladies are welcome to have a taste." She poured herself a glass, covered her sleeves and drank it.

When we met for the first time, there was no resentment or enmity, but Miss Shuiying would not be poisoned in the wine. Seeing her drink, Ming Tan also dipped a little in the glass.

The smile on Shui Ying's face became even wider: "My family wants to perform a dance, so I won't bother the two young ladies. I just hope that my family's dance will make the two young ladies show their faces."

She bowed softly and stepped back.

But in the middle of the retreat, she seemed to suddenly think of something, raised her head again, leaned forward slightly, and whispered in Ming Tan's ear: "Actually, I know why Miss came here today. In the past, there were many ladies in Beijing. Come to Xunnu's house to ask for advice on this. If the lady is interested, you might as well enjoy a dance. After the slave's dance is over, go with the slave's house to sit in the building for a while.

"The slave family only dances one song today. After sitting down for a while, the bustle outside has not ended. Miss, you can rest assured. If you are not at ease, let the second young master Bai guard the outside. And the slave family just wants to marry the lady because of the good looks of the lady. It's a good fate, the slave's family usually receives fifty gold for an hour, and the young lady will also give the slave's fifty gold."

Ming Tan: "..."

Fifty gold an hour.

The top girl in Bieyulou is really worth a lot.

Of course, fifty gold is not a big deal.

After Shui Ying Kuan left, Ming Tan finally came back to his senses: "She...she said she knew why I came today, but how did she know?"

Bai Minmin was also a little stunned, and simply dragged her second brother, who was dumbfounded by the beauty, to a seat, and asked viciously, "What did you and that Shuiying girl just say?!"

Bai Er was very innocent: "What? I didn't mention your names, and I'm not stupid, I just said it was my sister and cousin!"

Ming Tan: "..."

Doesn't that mean that she is the only cousin he has in Beijing!

However, she admired this Shuiying girl a little. She was able to judge her identity so quickly from a few words, and from her identity, she could deduce the purpose of her coming here today. The intertwined relationship between them is well understood.

Being able to stir up romantic affairs in Beijing and China, and still keep things out of the way, is really very good at dancing with long sleeves. So knowing her purpose, she took advantage of the situation and took the initiative to throw branches to make a good relationship, which is not difficult to understand.

Ming Tan hesitated with his chin propped up, and tapped lightly on the table with onion-like fingers.

As she thought about it, the bustle outside had already begun. Shuiying led a group of dancers to dance the song "Seven Pan Dance".

The dance has a long history, and it is a dance that blends rigidity and softness, not lacking in softness and beauty, but also extremely powerful. The dance in Bieyulou tonight seems to have been re-arranged. The leader is Shui Ying, slim and soft, with a kind of unconventional coquettishness on her body, which is very eye-catching when she dances.

Ming Tan was hesitant at first, but after watching Shui Ying's dance without blinking, she suddenly made up her mind.

The bustle of Qiqiao Building outside is still going on, and the lights are shining on the river, sparkling. No one noticed, two girls wearing veiled hats left quietly from the private room, followed the young man to the back door of the Bieyu Building, and entered the building.

Ming Tan and Bai Minmin have never been in a flower building, but they used to pass by the Yanhualiu Lane in a car, and the girls in the flower building were all dressed in cool and cool clothes outside to welcome customers. Looking from a distance, the inside is full of bright red and green, and they can feel it when they are not close. The smell of powder is pungent and choking.

But don't look inside the Jade Tower, it really doesn't look like a flower building as imagined, the corridors and patios are very elegantly arranged, quite poetic. Although it also depicts gold and jade, it doesn't make people feel vulgar, but it has a noble and elegant charm.

Thank you guests behind closed doors in the building tonight, it is very clean. I followed the boy all the way up to the third floor, but I didn't see many people.

When it came to the private room for entertaining distinguished guests, Ming Tan saw the meaning of a flower building. After all, there is absolutely no reason for ordinary restaurants and tea houses to put incense tents and soft beds in the private room.

Bai Minmin's second brother is a frequent visitor to the building, so she didn't feel that there was anything wrong, but Ming Tan and Bai Minmin were both on pins and needles. Fortunately, after sitting for a while, Shui Ying changed into her clothes and floated into the room with a smile on her face.

Shui Ying: "It's my family's fault to call the Second Young Master Bai and the two young ladies to wait. Please forgive the Second Young Master Bai and the two young ladies."

"It's okay, it's okay." Bai Minmin and her second brother waved their hands.

Earlier, the young man led the three of them into the building, saying that it was Miss Shuiying who asked them to move to a better place to enjoy music and dancing, but Bai Er didn't know the inside story, thinking that he was proud of himself.

Shuiying punished herself with three cups to make amends, and then played piano music for them. She talked and laughed with them for a while while watching the singing and dancing outside by the window. He deliberately found a reason to get the pipa, and quietly withdrew.

Ming Tan and Bai Minmin looked at each other, and suddenly made up their minds, they also stood up: "I'm going to change clothes."

The second elder brother of the Bai family didn't realize it for a while: "What kind of clothes should I wear?"

"Second brother, are you stupid!" Bai Minmin gouged him out.

"Oh, oh! Go, let someone outside take you there." It's all because Bai Minmin is too rough on weekdays, he didn't realize it for a while, his cousin Tan would say it so euphemistically when she went to the toilet.

There was a servant waiting outside the house, seeing Ming Tan coming out, he hurriedly led her to Shuiying's boudoir.

Shui Ying was already waiting in the boudoir, when she saw Ming Tan coming, she said with a smile: "Miss Si, sit down quickly."

Ming Tan looked at Shuiying's boudoir, and slowly sat down. Before she could speak, Shuiying went straight to the point and said, "Miss Si, I'll just say it straight. Although Bie Yulou said that he was a performer and not a person, but Hualou? , All rules are negotiated. Men can control everything, but they can't control their belts no matter what. "

"...?"

Ming Tan was stunned, what did she hear?

She... she didn't come to listen to this!

Seeing Ming Tan's face turned red for a moment, Shui Ying covered her lips and smiled embarrassedly: "This slave is a little bit more straightforward, and the obscene words have dirty the ears of the young lady. But although the young lady will be dignified and dignified in the future Madam, but if you want your husband to like you, you have to know a thing or two about the above things."

She glanced at the bed meaningfully.

Ming Tan was still in a daze.

Her original intention tonight was just to see why this Shuiying girl is attractive, so that when she gets along with her husband in private, she can learn how to find words and how to show herself. But it's enough to enter the building as if bewitched. Listening to the girl of Shuiying, the most important thing to win the heart of the husband is actually...? !

Shui Ying stood up, and took out a green face booklet from the cage.

Ming Tan turned a page hesitantly, then threw it away as if catching a hot potato, and almost went into shock.

Shui Ying did not see this scene uncommonly. When she went to teach the young ladies from wealthy families, those young ladies reacted in the same way, as if they could die of embarrassment and anger just by looking at it.

She picked it up patiently, and then said: "Young lady is about to leave the cabinet, I don't show these things to the young lady, and the wife at home must show the young lady before she leaves the pavilion. But the lady is concerned about her face, so she doesn't want to teach her carefully. Ordinary fire avoidance maps are definitely not so detailed. As for the matter of husband and wife, if you don’t understand the beauty of it, it will be very difficult—” She paused, “I want to be here, Miss Si feels uncomfortable watching, slave Go get some refreshments."

After saying that, Shui Ying stood up, quietly exited, and closed the door.

At the same time, in another private room in Bieyu Tower, Jiang Xu suddenly put down his wine glass, glanced at the people who were reporting back and forth in front of him, and said softly, "Say it again."

The person who replied paused for a moment, and cold sweat broke out on his back: "Miss Shuiying said, Wang... the fourth lady of Jing'an Houfu, in her boudoir, the other girls of Shuiying didn't say anything."

"The Fourth Miss of the Ming family has come to Bieyu Tower?" Shu Jingran's voice was full of surprise, and the wine glass was almost unsteady, "What is she doing here?"

The person who answered the question asked three questions.

Jiang Xu didn't know what he was thinking, but before Shu Jingran could say another word, he got up.

The boudoir was silent, only the faint sound of flipping books.

Ming Tanchu felt that such obscene pictures were simply unbearable and shameful! After Shuiying went out, she didn't even touch it.

But anything that has a sense of taboo is more confusing. Her fingers approached slowly and inch by inch... At first she was curious to read a page, but before she knew it, she turned back several pages, flipping through the pages with one hand. , covering his face with one hand, cooling his hot face.

When Jiang Xu pushed the door and entered, she thought it was full of water, hurriedly closed the pages of the book, took a sip of tea, trying to calm down.

But when she saw who was coming, she froze!

She must be hallucinating.

Why is her future husband here?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

But Jiang Xu approached slowly, lowering his eyes, trying to pull out the **** album in her hand.

Only then did she come to her senses, pressed it tightly, and subconsciously blurted out: "Don't look!"

Jiang Xu looked at her: "You, say no to this king?"

His voice was as pleasant as knocking gold and laying jade, but what he said made Ming Tan tremble.

Ming Tan's mind was in a mess, his heart seemed to fly out, and he couldn't help but stumble a bit when he spoke: "I didn't mean that, Your Highness...how could His Highness be here, not a patrol—"

Realizing that she had missed something, she immediately shut up.

But Jiang Xu didn't expose her fault, and answered along the lines: "Go back to Beijing in advance."

Although Ming Tan was in chaos, he still knew that the most important thing for him was to explain why he was here.

But Jiang Xu didn't seem to be interested in why she was here, so he took out the **** album from her hand, but after flipping through two pages, he threw it away.

"Miss doesn't need to read these things, and this is not the place where you should come." His voice was very calm, "My lord will send you back to your residence."

"...?"

Ming Tan wanted to cry! Want to explain, but don't know where to start.

Seeing Jiang Xu turned around to leave, she stepped forward to stop him in a panic: "I'm not what Your Highness thinks, I..."

She was in a hurry, and forgot all the rules of defense between men and women in the past. She unconsciously grabbed Jiang Xu's clothes and looked up at him with tears in her eyes: "Does your Highness think that I am shameless?" , think I..."

Jiang Xu saw that her fluttering eyelashes were already stained with tears, and suddenly interrupted: "Miss is fine, this king didn't think so."
