I bring my game account back to ancient times to do business

Chapter 99 Teahouse

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the county town underwent earth-shaking changes almost overnight. On the north-south streets, rows of light stands were erected from the north to the south of the city. Ropes were pulled up on the east-west streets on both sides of the Hui River.

, oil-paper umbrellas in four colors of red, pink, orange and yellow were hung, and there were lanterns everywhere under the tree. Complex and gorgeous lantern trees were set up at every major intersection.

It's just that it's still early in the sky right now, so the lights can't be lit until dusk, and it won't look good until then.

Ms. Lu was preparing to go out. They were going to the teahouse to play cards early. Although they had reserved two seats in advance, if it was getting late, the sound of the singers would be drowned out by the noise outside.

.

When the eldest maid Shuangjiang was holding peach blossom ointment to wipe Mrs. Lu's hands and face, the maid Guyu opened the door curtain and walked in, wanting to ask Mrs. Lu for a leave.

She just goes out for a while at night, looks at the lights with her sweetheart and then comes back. Madam should agree, right?

Guyu felt a little uneasy, so he stepped forward, bowed and called Madam.

Mrs. Lu saw the visitor through the bronze mirror with flowers, and her face showed joy: "Gu Yu, you came just in time. I have to go out today, and the third wife will go out later to watch the lanterns with the Qiao family. Biyue

I'm afraid I can't watch it alone, so you go and watch it. I'll give you a day off tomorrow. Mother Hu, I'll give her five hundred dollars later. There are many vendors in the evening, so don't wrong yourself if you want to take a fancy to something new.

Already."

Ah this...

Gu Yu choked.

But I couldn't refuse, so I had to say yes.

But then I thought about it, Madam’s arrangement seemed not bad.

In the evening, her lover was waiting for her at the entrance of Changji Bridge. Isn't this the bridge next to Dingshiji and the County Magistrate's Office? If Sanniang and Mrs. Qiao went out to watch the lanterns, they would definitely not be able to avoid it.

Biyue is a mature and steady person, how much trouble can it take to watch the three ladies with her? It just so happens that I can be lazy and follow them by being a step or two behind them. This way, I will not delay myself and my lover from watching the lights together.

What's more, the madam also gave me five hundred yuan!

Who can resist such temptation!

Thinking of this, her brows widened again.

After Mrs. Lu packed up, she and Meng Renfu went out together. They took an ox cart to pick up Yun Xuemei first, and then went to the teahouse together.

Speaking of which, the teahouse they went to today was opposite Dingshiji. Mrs. Lu could obviously send a car to pick up Yun Xuemei first, saving her from having to make two trips. It would be faster, but she just wanted to go around in a circle.

Sit in the car for a while.

In Lu's words: "So what if I ask them to wait? I am the county magistrate's wife, can they still complain?"

On Qiao Yun's side, Yun Xuemei stood in front of the floor-length mirror, looking left and right in the mirror.

Her upper body was wrapped in a small light blue jacket, which was woven or printed with small pearl white flowers. Her skirt was a two-layered chest-length skirt with a layer of twelve torn navy blue gauze on the outside.

A purple tang-colored petticoat. The blue gauze skirt is printed with snow-white star dots, and the purple as deep as night is looming underneath. The whole skirt is as dreamlike as the starry sky on a midsummer night.

"It looks good!" Qiao Yun stood next to Yun Xuemei, gently pushing her in a circle as if appreciating a piece of art, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Good-looking..." Yun Xuemei looked at herself in the mirror and was already a little stunned.

Qiao Yun smiled proudly: "That's what I'm saying! Just trust my taste! Come on, I'll give you some flower buds." Qiao Yun held a shallow bowl beside her, which was stuffed from the rouge box.

The piece of rouge that comes out has been diluted with water to a state where it will not stagnate or flow down after dipping the pen.

Yun Xuemei sat down on the cushion obediently. When she sat down, she even spread her skirt around her body like a flower.

Qiao Yun held the brush seriously, pointed it on her forehead, and lifted it up slightly, drawing a very natural red mark. Qiao Yun took another thinner brush and painted the tail with light golden paint.

Make light touch-ups.

This flower arrangement is simple but not plain. Paired with her clothes, it looks like a meteor streaking through the night sky, with its long tail as hot and bright as flames.

Her eyes are as bright as stars and extremely beautiful. With her carefully crafted makeup and matching hair and jewelry, she looks like a fairy on the clouds who accidentally fell into the mortal world.

"Okay!" Qiao Yun retracted her elbows and washed off the rouge and dye on the brush in the brush washer on the side. She said with a smile: "I promise that you will dazzle those squires and ladies today."

Dressed like this, she actually looks three or four years younger, and she looks more and more like a young lady like a water onion.

Hey, Qiao Yun remembers that Yun Xuemei seemed to be about the same age as she was before she traveled through time?

Yun Xuemei turned her head and stared at the beauty in the mirror without blinking.

"Okay, okay, people are coming to pick you up, get ready!"

Qiao Yun saw that she was fascinated by her beauty and became even more proud of her ability to dress up. Qiao Yun stood up and prepared the things Yun Xuemei needed to bring when she went out.

She first took a silk fan bag and put the lightweight Hanhai Qianji into it, then took a large purse and put the small box containing the crossbow needle into it.

Although I don’t know what dangers she will encounter when she goes out to play cards, it’s just in case! Since she has prepared such a lightweight and portable weapon, wouldn’t it be against her original intention not to take it with her when she goes out?

She prepared another purse and a forbidden bag, and tied these four decorations to the lace on Yun Xuemei's chest.

The empty purse is used to hold the money she won, and the jade forbidden steps are used to balance the weight on the left and right sides.

With so many extra accessories, the fairy suddenly became a mortal, and the fairy spirit of this dress dropped several notches.

Just as Yun Xuemei was dressed up, there was a knock on the door to the backyard.

"They are here to pick you up. Go quickly and relax!" Qiao Yun watched as she got into the car.

I have to pack up and go find Meng Shaoqing, and I have to leave from her house soon!

…

Chunming Tower.

Taking advantage of the trend of the wild boar feast, Quwo County was crowded with tourists. Some rich man from Chang'an or Luoyang brought a singing and dancing troupe that he was accustomed to, and there were more than a dozen people in total, ranging from playing, playing, singing to dancing!

There was no room in the largest inn in the city, so the rich man had to temporarily arrange the singing and dancing troupe in the largest teahouse. In addition to going out to eat wild boars, he would just sit in the luxurious seats with the best location and watch the show.

Beauties singing and dancing.

There are a lot of people in the teahouse these days. They sang poems the day before yesterday and Jiangnan tunes yesterday. They came in different styles, and it was very lively.

There are even Orchids from the Western Regions in this song and dance troupe. Today it is those enchanting beauties from other regions who are dancing the Hu Xuan Dance. They twist their waists to the beat of the drums in such a charming and charming way. A squire from Quwo County

People came here one after another to take advantage of this wealthy man, almost living in the teahouse. The money for tea seats and refreshments flowed into Chunming House like the Yangtze River into the sea, and the boss almost burst out laughing.

The local tycoons were generous enough to let them watch and reward them. After a few days, the singing and dancing troupe had made enough money to travel back home.

After getting off the car, Meng Renfu went to the first floor by himself. The steward of the teahouse would arrange a seat for him. The second floor was surrounded by a circle of card tables. Mr. Lu said that he had invited two squire ladies with whom he had made friends.

They were playing cards in the private seats on the second floor. In fact, they were not the only four playing cards on the second floor at the moment.

Seeing Mrs. Lu coming up, the ladies put down their cards one after another and gathered around one by one.

"Madam of the County Magistrate! Long time no see, how are you lately?"

"Some time ago I heard that you were busy preparing for the Lantern Festival celebrations. I wanted to visit you but was afraid of disturbing you. I didn't expect to meet you here today. Isn't it a coincidence?"

The two poker friends who had made an appointment with Mr. Lu in advance were also there, talking about the hard work along the way.

But everyone's eyes involuntarily glanced at Yun Xuemei. The unkind eyes of a group of ladies of all ages were a bit scrutinizing, which made people very uncomfortable.

How could there be such a beautiful woman!

She is so beautiful, with an extraordinary temperament, so beautiful that just standing here makes all the ladies look like chickens next to the crane.

The key is, why did she come up arm in arm with the county magistrate’s wife? What is her relationship with the county magistrate’s wife?

Could such a young and beautiful lady be the daughter-in-law of the Lu family?!
