Concubine Snake Married to: The Demon Empress Will Become a Devil

Chapter 40 Dance Learning 3
Madam Chu Yu was attracted by Su Xiaocui's dancing posture, she looked at Su Xiaocui with envious eyes, after Su Xiaocui danced a dance, she turned to look at Chu Yumao and Fu Rong, and saw that they both looked at her with wishful thinking, There was still a smirk on the face, and the corners of her mouth were almost drooling again. Su Xiaocui blushed greatly by the appearance of the two, and hurried forward, stretched out her hand in front of the two, and said embarrassingly: "What are you looking at, it feels like When the hungry wolf saw the sheep, its eyes turned green."

It was only then that Chu Yu and Fu Rong came back to their senses, bowed their heads embarrassedly and laughed, and then, Chu Yu suddenly raised her head and said, "Sister, you dance really well, don't you?" Professional, right?"

"Professional? What is a professional?" Su Xiaocui couldn't help asking Chu Yu's wife with a frown after hearing what Chu Yu said.Mrs. Chu Yu was also the quickest to say it. Now when Su Xiaocui asked, she really didn't know how to explain it. After thinking about it, she said to Su Xiaocui, "It's nothing, that is, do you only specialize in dancing?"

When these words came out, not only Su Xiaocui, but even Fu Rong was astonished. What kind of words are these? It's not insulting to co-authors to directly compare the dignified young lady with the dancer who is a professional dancer?So he quickly grabbed the words and said to Su Xiaocui: "Sister Su, sister Chu Yu meant to talk about you, this dance is very beautiful, even if you bring in that professional dancer, it can't be compared with you." Furong said After finishing, I still felt that the words were hard to bear, so I hurriedly said: "No, no, how can those people compare with you, you are Miss Everyone, anyway, what my sister and I mean is that your dance is really good. Okay, I have nothing to say." Su Xiaocui couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing when she heard the incoherent words of the two, Su Xiaocui knew in her heart that Chu Yu's wife didn't mean to slander her, and Fu Rong, in order to help Chu Yu's wife make things right, she put Just stir it yourself.

Su Xiaocui thought about it for a while and then she didn't care, she teased Mrs Chu Yu and said, "Didn't you say you can compose poetry, what's the matter, you can't even praise others?"

After hearing this, Madam Chu Yu smiled awkwardly at Su Xiaocui, lowered her head in embarrassment, Fu Rong also looked at Madam Chu Yu with a face of guilt.

Seeing the expressions of the two, Su Xiaocui sneered again, pulled Madam Chu Yu and Fu Rong and said, "Okay, isn't it just a sentence, I know you don't mean anything malicious, just want to say that I danced well, come on, come on Come on, let me teach you two, you two are so smart, I think you will be better than me in a few days."

Chu Yu and Fu Rong looked at Su Xiaocui embarrassedly, Su Xiaocui saw the expressions on their faces, and she also had goosebumps all over her body, so she quickly said to them: "Okay, don't look at it, I should melt after a while, hurry up Come on, what time is it, hurry up and let me teach you some moves."

After hearing Su Xiaocui's words, Chu Yu and Fu Rong were excited, and said yes repeatedly, and stood in place to watch Su Xiaocui dance.

Su Xiaocui looked at Madam Chu Yu and Fu Rong with a smile, and then started to move...

Time passed quickly, and finally it was noon. Everyone had a hasty meal and went back to the house to rest. Er Chu Yu and Fu Rong were still thinking about Su Xiaocui's dance in the morning.

The two of them were thinking about it when they heard someone knock on the door. Fu Rong ran to the door and opened it. In fact, she and Mrs. Chu Yu had already guessed that it was Su Xiaocui, so they let Su Xiaocui into the room with a smile.

As for Su Xiaocui, because she knew that the two of them didn't have the habit of taking a lunch break, she purposely came to sit with the two sisters and tell them about the dance by the way. Judging by their posture, they must have never received formal training in dance.

Su Xiaocui was not polite, she went directly to the table and sat down, Chu Yu smiled and poured Su Xiaocui a cup of tea, Su Xiaocui reached out to take the teacup, took a small sip, put down the water cup, stretched out her hand and called Furong, and waited for Furong to sit down , Su Xiaocui smiled and said slowly: "I came here at noon, I want to tell you about the knowledge of this dance, we not only need to know how to dance, but of course we also need to know what to dance. "Mrs. Chu Yu and Fu Rong originally asked what Su Xiaocui was talking about with smiles on their faces, but when Su Xiaocui opened her mouth and said that she was going to give a lecture, the faces of the two of them immediately turned pale, with a look of reluctance. Seeing this, Su Xiaocui hated Tie Buchenggang and said: "Why don't you want to hear it? I'll tell you, you have to listen to it, and you have to listen to it if you don't. Although we are beautiful women, who will say what will happen in the future?" By the way, you only know how to dance, but if one day someone asks about dancing, what should you say? It’s like you are eating and dressing every day, but you don’t know that what you eat is food, and what you wear is clothes , do you say this plausibly?"

After listening to Su Xiaocui's words, Chu Yu and Fu Rong also felt that there was some truth in them, so they nodded and prepared to listen patiently.

Seeing Mrs. Chu Yu and Fu Rong nodding, Su Xiaocui smiled lightly. She also knew that this game is very boring, but it is also a compulsory thing, so she opened her mouth and said: "This The dances of the court can be roughly divided into five types, namely soft dance, sword dance, palace banquet dance, square music dance and sword dance, all of which are divided according to their different dance postures and skills." Su Xiaocui paused for a while, looking Looking at Chu Yu and Fu Rong, I was afraid that they would fall asleep after listening to it, but found that Chu Yu and Fu Rong were still listening carefully, so he was relieved and continued: "Generally speaking, the people of this dynasty Most of the dances are developed on the basis of the Baixi dance skills of the Han Dynasty, combined with the dance skills of the Southern and Northern Dynasties. The dance I danced this morning is a soft dance, and its characteristics are generally more graceful and soft Yes, it is a very entertaining performance dance. Of course, the dance is not independent, and it needs to be matched with music. The most famous soft dance music is "Chun Ying Tiao", which was composed during the reign of Emperor Gaozong. I think you must have heard of it."

Although Mrs. Chu Yu is also from a wealthy family, and Master Chu is also from a literati background, but most of them dabble in medical things, and they basically don't know much about opera and dance. As for Mrs. Chu, she can dance, but she is more fond of embroidery, so This was the reason why she had never planned to let Mrs. Chu Yu dance.

Chu Yu and Fu Rong shook their heads very straightforwardly, looked at Su Xiaocui innocently, and asked strangely: "You can't dance, I can understand, maybe you are afraid of suffering or something, but are you at home?" Didn't your parents let the people in the house dance and toast?"

Chu Yu and Fu Rong shook their heads again, and Chu Yu said: "My father is a medical practitioner. He spends all day in the study studying medical books, or studying medicinal materials in the pharmacy. My mother likes embroidery, and my father also likes embroidery. I have always disliked making friends with dignitaries, and I don’t have any visits at home, so naturally I don’t need to dance.”

Hearing Madam Chu Yu's words, Su Xiaocui seemed to think of something, turned to look at Fu Rong and asked, "I think you two have a very good relationship, inseparable, and I heard Fu Rong call your sister, aren't you sisters? Or cousins?" What?"

After hearing this, Aunt Chu Yu and Fu Rong looked at each other and smiled, Fu Rong turned her head and said to Su Xiaocui: "Actually, I was originally a servant girl in the house, and I was responsible for taking care of sister Chu Yu, but my sister has always regarded me as my own sister because of her kindness. , my master saw that my sister and I have a deep relationship, so he accepted me as a daughter, so I became a sister with Chu Yu's sister." After finishing speaking, Fu Rong smiled at Su Xiaocui, and then turned to express her gratitude to Chu Yu's wife Smiling, seeing Fu Rong's appearance, Chu Yu patted Fu Rong's shoulder very softly, smiled lightly, and didn't say anything.

Hearing Madam Chu Yu and Fu Rong's conversation, Su Xiaocui looked at them with a smile and didn't say anything else.But I am very envious in my heart. Thinking about my life at home, the servants treat me with a respectful attitude. The visitors at home either come to beg my father or to make connections, so apart from flattery, there is no sincerity at all , that face seems to be angry, let alone make friends.A few years ago, Su Xiaocui also had a maid who was very close to her, but when her father found out, he kicked that maid out and scolded Su Xiaocui severely, saying that Su Xiaocui did not distinguish between superior and inferior. Since then, Su Xiaocui has never thought about friends, so there is no one around her who can speak her mind. Seeing the sincere feelings between Chu Yumao and Furong, Su Xiaocui felt envious. what.

The three of them were silent for a while and were thinking about their own thoughts. Su Xiaocui envied Chu Yu and Fu Rong, envied that Chu Yu had an enlightened father, and envied that Fu Rong met such a good family.As for Fu Rong, her heart was full of gratitude, she was grateful to Mrs. Chu Yu for her intrusion into her sister's feelings, and to Master Chu for his open mind.The room fell silent in an instant, Chu Yu didn't want everyone to be quiet like this, so she quickly said: "What are you doing, stop talking after talking, Sister Su, go on talking, this dance is still a little What, at first I thought it was meaningless, but after listening to it, I became interested.”

Hearing Madam Chu Yu's words, Su Xiaocui smiled at Madam Chu Yu and said, "This dance, to put it bluntly, is just for people to watch. You understand, it's what I just said. It's enough for you to know. There’s nothing to talk about, after a while, you and Furong can learn from me.”

After hearing what Su Xiaocui said, Mrs. Chu Yu had nothing to say, so she looked at Su Xiaocui with a smile.Su Xiaocui saw that everyone had nothing to say, so she said: "You guys take a rest, I won't bother you anymore, if you are tired, take a nap, I will call you later." Getting up to leave, Mrs. Chu Yu and Fu Rong wanted to persuade them to stay, but they really had nothing to say, so they didn't say anything. They smiled and sent Su Xiaocui out of the room, and then went back to bed.Although the two of them don't have the habit of taking a nap, but in the past two days, Chu Yu's wife has worked hard to learn dance, Fu Rong has worked hard to teach Chu Yu's wife to dance, and Su Xiaocui said that she called back, so the two were relieved. Naturally, he fell asleep right now.

About half an hour later, Su Xiaocui came to Chu Yu's house door, knocked on the door, Chu Yu and Fu Rong rubbed their eyes, opened the door and went out with Su Xiaocui.

At this moment, Bai Ling'er also came out, seeing Chu Yumao, Furong and Su Xiaocui, smiled at the three of them uncharacteristically, and walked towards the three of them, Chu Yumao, Furong and Su Xiaocui Su Xiaocui's heart tightened, and she couldn't help thinking, what is this guy doing here again, and he still has a smile on his face, no matter how you look at it, he looks like he has no good intentions.Fu Rong was straightforward, seeing Bai Ling'er approaching, she hurriedly asked, "What are you doing here? We seem to have a common language, aren't you here to apologize to sister?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Chu Yu gave Fu Rong a pull. She really didn't want to have anything to do with Bai Ling'er, so she made a gesture with Fu Rong and Xiao Cui to leave. Seeing that the three of them were about to leave, Bai Ling'er hurriedly shouted: "Ms. Chu Yu, Fu Rong, don't worry. I just came to apologize. I was wrong this morning. I was jealous and offended Mrs. Chu Yu by saying something. I hope Ms. Chu Yu will not be offended, and don't take it to heart. We Ah, I don't know how long we will live in this courtyard, I think we should stop confronting each other like this."

After hearing Bai Ling'er's words, the three of them felt a drum in their hearts. Just as Furong was about to speak, Su Xiaocui said, "I dare not take it. You Bai Ling'er is so honorable. We can't afford it. Besides, what do we have that you are jealous of, are you kidding me, we little people can't be as good as your eyes, don't say anything sharp, we don't have the guts." After finishing speaking, she pulled Chu Yu and Fu Rong On the way, Bai Ling'er heard this, her face turned blue and white, her hands were clenched into fists, but she still tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart, and she came over with a smile on her face.

When the three of them saw Bai Ling'er following her again, Furong became impatient and shouted at Bai Ling'er, "Are you annoying? Can't you hear what Sister Su said? Why don't you stay cool? So that we little people don't offend you again." Bai Ling'er was still not angry, and ignored Fu Rong, walked over and came to Chu Yumao's side.

This Bai Ling'er could see clearly, knowing that Chu Yu's wife was the backbone of the three of them, as long as Chu Yu's wife nodded, everything would be easy, so she smiled and said to Chu Yu's wife: "Miss Chu Yu, I know that our two families have never been on good terms, but we have entered the palace. As for the affairs outside the palace, let’s leave them alone and ignore them. This deep palace compound, even if we become empresses or something in the future Don't you need friends, and besides, if I am not selected and become a court lady, wouldn't you still expect Miss Chu Yu to take care of you and support you?"
