Chapter 68 The Cheeky Talented Girl
Although Chen Xiuyan doesn't know how to sing, it is very easy to memorize the songs. She has many songs adapted from Tang poetry and Song lyrics in her mind. They are all the result of combining modern music with ancient characters.

In particular, my grandmother is a professor of archeology. It's not that she hasn't studied and studied ancient music scores, so she can't imagine that she can use these skills now.

"Doctor Chen, this, this song, are you sure you want our Hongyue Tower to sing it?" Although the old bustard spoke modestly and uncertainly, her hands were already firmly holding the paper with the song written on it.

"They're all women, and it's not easy for you." Chen Xiuyan's words moved the madam, but then brought her back to reality, "What's more, I don't pay for nothing. If the results are good, I have to pay."

"Here, how much?" the bustard asked in a low voice.

"I don't want too much, I'll charge [-]%." Chen Xiuyan stretched out three fingers and gestured, "[-]% of the profit income on the day of the essay meeting, and I won't charge you any more if you use this song later. It will also help with planning.”

"Although I can't sing well, I'm good at arranging music. After I have one song, there will be more songs for Hongyuelou, and only for you. How about it? It's a good deal." Chen Xiuyan asked with a smile.

"Planning?" The bustard didn't understand clearly.

"To make friends with literature, as long as Hongyuelou puts up this signboard and holds it every tenth day, attracting scholars, why don't you worry about having no guests at ordinary times?"

"Every tenth, there must be a new song and a new play. I will design the story of the opera. Wen Niang learns to sing this song first. When I come next time, I will bring the script of the play. At that time, mother will decide whether to cooperate or not."

"Oh, oh." The bustard really couldn't make up her mind, but the way she looked at Chen Xiuyan was already looking at a baby.

Wrapped ten taels of silver for Chen Xiuyan, and personally sent the person out to the donkey cart driven by Luo Mingqing.

"Ming and Qing, go to the Wang's residence. After Mingxin is picked up, we will go to Leyinju." Luo Mingxin's guqin, Chen Xiuyan, is still in her heart. She, who doesn't know how to play, is not easy to choose. I couldn't tell the difference between good and bad timbres, so I finally decided to let Luo Mingxin try it himself.

Luo Mingxin didn't expect his aunt to come in person today, and when he learned that he was going to take him to buy a piano, his excitement was visible to the naked eye.

Leyinju is the largest piano shop in Yijiang County. It is said that it is an ancestral craft. There are some ancestors who have been musicians in the court, but there are no outstanding descendants, so they can only concentrate on being piano makers.

Luo Mingxin just started to get in touch with it. She used Mr. Qin's guqin to practice temperament in the women's school. She was a person who hadn't started yet. She bought an ordinary guqin. A thick one cost 18 taels.

Chen Xiuyan handed the extra two taels to Luo Mingxin, and Luo Mingxin took it.

But the next night, when Luo Mingxin came back, Chen Xiuyan received a gift from Luo Mingxin, a pair of gold earrings, which weighed nothing but were made of gold.

"Little aunt, thank you. This is a gift from me. It's not very expensive. Don't dislike it, little aunt." Luo Mingxin presented the gift with a generous face, but there was still a little shyness in his eyes.

"Just kidding, it's made of gold, who would dislike it, it's not a fool." Chen Xiuyan liked it very much, and immediately put it on, "How is it?"

"It looks good." Luo Ming said honestly, "Little aunt looks good, she looks good in anything she wears."

At night, Luo Wenqian watched Chen Xiuyan take off the earrings and put them away cherishedly, the smile on his face never stopped, and a thoughtful flash flashed in his eyes.

In the next few days, Chen Xiuyan discovered that Luo Wenqian would write in the study for two hours every night, and several times she fell asleep and was still in the study. If it wasn't for Luo Wenqian who woke up next day by her side, Chen Xiuyan would not have known that this person was there before. Did he not sleep all night, studying so hard, it seems that the pressure of the township examination is still very high.

Chen Xiuyan usually writes stories during the day, when there is only one person left at home, Chen Xiuyan has learned about the market, and a play can last up to an hour, but because dramas are usually expressed by singing, the ups and downs of the plot are all expressed through this, Chen Xiuyan estimated the word count and time, and wrote a play in five days.

What men usually like, titles on the gold list, bridal chamber festive candles, that is the imperial examination and marriage, but the most encouraging and attractive thing is to study hard in the cold window and finally achieve success, marry a beautiful wife, and have a bright future.

But the ancients got married early and paid attention to getting married first and then starting a career. In order to prevent the wretched wife from going down the court, Chen Xiuyan even beautified the male protagonist. His wife plans to remarry.

After Chen Xiuyan finished writing the story, she took the eight-treasure porridge she made and went to Aunt Yuan's. If she wanted to ask which woman in the huge Luojiatang Village was the most connotative, it must be Mrs. Yuan.

"Come here, what did you do?" Granny Su is used to Chen Xiuyan coming to the door every now and then, often bringing over food she made.

"Eight-treasure porridge." Chen Xiuyan raised her eyebrows.

"The name is nice." Granny Su saw the so-called eight-treasure porridge, and the ingredients were not much different from Laba porridge.

"I have something better here." Chen Xiuyan took out a stack of papers full of words, "I wrote a play, and I want Aunt Yuan and Granny Su to hold my eyes for me?"

"You can also write plays?" Granny Su was a little surprised, "Ms. Luo is really all-rounder, not only has superb medical skills, but also outstanding cooking skills. I didn't expect to have such a talent?"

"Grandma Su's 'all-rounder' is right, but I not only know these things, but also have more advantages that I haven't shown. In the future, Granny Su will find more shining points in me." Chen Xiuyan was not polite accepted.

Granny Su laughed outright, "Ma'am, come out and meet this thick-skinned 'talented girl'."

Mrs. Yuan came out of her room waving her fan and went to the main room, "What made my mother Su, who hadn't seen a smile in a hundred years, laugh? I have to take a good look."

Mrs. Yuan read Chen Xiuyan's story, and Luo Nier brought up cakes and tea.

With steady and regular steps, low eyebrows and a respectful attitude, this was the first time she saw Luo Ni'er since her own yard. Chen Xiuyan was a little surprised, but felt it should be taken for granted.

After waiting for the others to go out, Chen Xiuyan looked at Granny Su and gave her a thumbs up, "You are the one who is superior, and this is turning people around."

"The foundation can be turned around, otherwise I wouldn't have taken people into my hands at the beginning, but it hasn't been long, and I still need to teach some more days." Granny Su said, "Let's talk about the show of talented women, madam, look How are you doing?"

"Xiuyan doesn't know enough about men." Mrs. Yuan said with a smile after watching it, "Man in the world is so cold, it's hard to find men who value love and righteousness like in the play, it's hard to find."
