Rebirth Nunnery

Chapter 14
The state official at the table was a little bored. This small Fengdou County is not a star and a half worse than Qingzhou Prefecture.

Although the county magistrate is considered to be on the right track, the other driver next to him is a bit ignorant no matter how he looks at it.

At this moment, a group of beautiful girls in red dresses and white dresses suddenly came onto the stage. Their neat outfits and movements made people turn their eyes involuntarily.

The melodious sound of silk and bamboo began to sound, and the nine girls occupied nine seats on the stage and began to dance lightly.

The body is enchanting and graceful, the sleeves are flicked lightly, and the lotus feet are moved lightly.

This is the lotus dance, which is not very gorgeous, but the sense of elegance is still refreshing.

The lotus picking dance reflects a group of girls going to the lotus field to pick lotus. Amidst the rippling blue waves, the lotus leaves are dancing together, and the blossoming tender lotus comes out through the water. Even the sound of water seems to be heard in the ears.

In the middle of the dance, suddenly, nine girls gathered in the center of the stage, dancing lightly with long sleeves, blocking everyone's sight for a while.

But at this moment, an elegant and trickling voice suddenly sounded out of thin air, like the cry of a crane, and like a clear spring, flowing to the heart.

The nine people dispersed quickly, and an elegant and slender figure suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

A long white dress reaches the floor, the waist is gathered, but the sleeves are a few wide, and black dense patterns are embroidered on the collar, hem, and cuffs.

The high posture, the slender and beautiful neck, and the outstretched arms are all like white cranes!

Ding Jiayi took off the cloak, stepped onto the stage under everyone's amazed eyes, and showed it in front of everyone.

The feet under the skirt are not wearing dancing shoes, but are wrapped in fine white cloth.

Ding Jiayi took a step forward, stretching his arms subconsciously, every movement was perfect.

The swan is a species introduced from the west. There was no such beautiful water bird in the east before, but there were white cranes that were similar to it.

Ding Jiayi has slightly changed this little swan dance in the past few days. Although it is not perfect, it can definitely be called a shock.

Every move, every frown and smile, Ding Jiayi vividly displayed the nobility and arrogance of the crane.

Moreover, the crane was a symbol of longevity in ancient times, and the implication of such a dance would not displease the state official.

Finally, at the moment when the music stopped, Ding Jiayi froze on the stage in the shape of a soaring white crane, accompanied by the dancing of nine girls in red, which further set off her aloofness.

The state official was obviously shocked by the dance, it took him a long time to react to the people on the stage, and then he clapped his hands vigorously.

"Good good good good good! What a white crane dance!" The state official praised him so much that the county magistrate beside him couldn't help showing a happy smile on his face.

"Come here, let's see the reward!"

Before the magistrate could speak, the magistrate hurriedly shouted loudly.

The girls on the stage couldn't help showing joy, but Ding Jiayi let out a long breath, letting go of a big stone in his heart.

It was impossible to say that she was not nervous, but she had already made a promise in front of Mother Feng before, and if she could not show considerable confidence, then Mother Feng would never risk her.

Now, at least the first step, I succeeded!
Ding Jiayi stood in the center of the stage, bowing slightly towards the state officials and county magistrates below, with a faint smile on her face, which made her even more eye-catching and colorful.

The state official looked at Ding Jiayi, narrowed his eyes slightly, and tapped the wine glass with a chopstick in his hand.

Seeing this, the entourage of the state official at the side immediately understood.

"That girl, my adults are here to invite you."

Seeing the other party pointing at him, Ding Jiayi couldn't help being taken aback, but quickly realized that he was not as ecstatic as imagined. He just nodded slightly, whispered a few words to the person beside him, and then walked off the stage.

The attendant was very discerning, and quickly moved a round stool from the side and placed it beside the state official, signaling Ding Jiayi to take a seat.

But to his surprise, Ding Jiayi did not obey his instructions, but stood still in front of the state officials and county magistrates, gently waved his sleeves, and bowed his knees in salute.

"The little girl has seen two adults."

The state official hummed, stared at Ding Jiayi with great interest and asked: "The girl is talented, and I feel wronged staying here in Fengdou County. How about returning to Qingzhou with me?"

As soon as the governor's words came out, everyone at the table turned pale with shock, especially that fellow, whose face was almost as black as ink.

"Thank you, my lord, for your kindness." Ding Jiayi calmly bowed his knees again, but did not respond, "But the little girl only sells her art and not her body, whether it is in Fengyanlou or other places."

Ding Jiayi's eyebrows and eyes were curved, and his seemingly soft expression, but the words he said had another meaning.

"Hmph! I don't know how to flatter you!" The master Biejia snorted coldly and couldn't help but speak.

It would be an unprecedented honor for an ordinary brothel girl to follow a state official to Qingzhou Mansion. After all, no matter how famous she is in Fengyan Tower, she is only a prostitute.

Which woman does not want to have a stable life?

But Ding Jiayi didn't think so.

Regardless of whether the state official said this on a whim or not, even if he really wanted to redeem himself, he would at most be a concubine if he brought it back, not even a concubine's room.

Ding Jiayi naturally refused to commit himself to such an old man in his 40s.

Moreover, once you follow the other party, your own life and future cannot be decided by yourself.

Although Ding Jiayi didn't know or understand the state official in front of her, she was not stupid, and she didn't want to betray herself for a moment of safety.

Although there was no movement at the banquet here, the voice was still clearly transmitted back to the back hall. When Mother Feng heard Ding Jiayi's words, a strange look flashed in her eyes.

On the other side, Mr. Biejia had already stood up, his face was full of anger, obviously ready to vent his anger for the governor, but at this moment, the governor suddenly waved his hand casually.

"Don't let the fun get you down! Since this girl is unwilling, I, Gu Qingshan, am not a person who can be made difficult by others." Saying that, the state official Gu Daren waved to the entourage behind him, and the entourage hurriedly handed over a small pouch.

"Take this as a reward from me! You won't refuse it, right?" Gu Qingshan asked Ding Jiayi with interest.

Ding Jiayi took the purse, without counting the quantity inside, with a natural expression, without being overly surprised, and saluted Gu Qingshan again.

"Thank you, Master Gu."

Afterwards, Gu Qingshan really didn't make things difficult for Ding Jiayi anymore, and asked Ding Jiayi to step down after casually asking a few words.

When Ding Jiayi returned to the back hall, what he saw was everyone's shocked, puzzled, or disdainful eyes.

"Mother Feng, this is a reward from Lord Gu. According to the rules, should it be given to you, or should I keep it for myself?" Ding Jiayi walked up to Mother Feng and asked, ignoring their eyes.

Feng Yinger's eyes were full of strangeness, she had been in this romantic place for decades, what kind of person had she never seen?She still has a bit of eyesight, but she can't see through the little lady in front of her.

"According to the rules of Fengyanlou, the accounts are split fifty-fifty." Mother Feng said while hiding her strangeness.

Ding Jiayi said "Oh", then gave the purse to Mother Feng, and said with a smile: "After I go back, Mom will count my credit for today!"

Feng Ying'er couldn't help coughing, glanced away, and immediately stared back at the onlookers around her, and then put away the purse.

Afterwards, they didn't stay in this restaurant for long. After receiving the reward from the magistrate, Mother Feng took everyone back to Fengyan Tower.

As soon as the nine girls returned to the building, they couldn't help chattering, pulling the other girls in the building to talk about today's events excitedly.

After all, they are all just small local people in a remote corner, and they are still low-level prostitutes. How can it not excite them to have the opportunity to meet the adults from Qingzhou Mansion?

Among the guest officials who come to Fengyanlou on weekdays, the highest status is just the officials of the county government office, the magistrate of the county will never step into Fengyanlou.

Mother Feng glanced at the girls, reached out to help Ju Niang up the stairs, suddenly paused, then turned her head and said to Ding Jiayi: "You come up too."

Ding Jiayi had just taken off her cloak, and was not surprised when she heard the words. She just handed the cloak in her hand to the woman beside her, followed Mother Feng with a faint smile, and walked up to the second floor.
