Happy Little Scholar

"Sister Ruoqing, there have been a lot less guests here in the past two days. "天　灁『Novel"" After Li Yi left, the girl named Xiaozhu looked at the sparse guests in the hook bar and said with a sigh.

As the popularity of "Painted Skin" gradually subsided, the number of customers in the hook bar became less and less day by day, and now, it has almost returned to the normal level.

According to their original estimation, this time should be longer, but things did not develop as they expected.

After only one day, the story of "Painted Skin" was circulated everywhere. Although they were not angry, they could not say anything about it.

They are all stories. If Grandpa Sun said it, other people will naturally say it too. After hearing a short story like this once, you can almost retell it. It is simply impossible to make a long-term profit from these stories.

Firstly, because the guests were separated by other hooks, and secondly, the stories were told too many times, and naturally they lost their freshness. There were fewer and fewer guests who had never heard of them, and there were no fresh stories to add, so naturally there would be no more. More people are willing to come.

Wan Ruoqing looked at the several sisters who were performing seriously on the stage, but there were not many people watching in the audience. She sighed softly, with a trace of helplessness on her face.

They are just actors living at the bottom of this industry. Unlike those famous actors who are dependent on high-ranking officials and get a lot of rewards for every performance, they can only survive in this way.

Her situation was relatively good. She had some talent in a certain small circle and her singing skills were pretty good. She and Xiaozhu were not living a comfortable life, but they were barely able to live a tolerable life.

However, in such days, there is nothing worth looking forward to. Perhaps once they have passed, the first thing the two of them will face is the problem of survival.

"That Mr. Li seems to be quite rich." The girl held her chin and said in a low voice.

The shop next door called "Ruyi Fang" is very famous in Qing'an Mansion. I heard that many rich young ladies like to buy things there, so he will definitely not be short of money.

It's a pity that Sister Qing never accepts the support from those friends, otherwise, their life would be much easier.

But speaking of it, Sister Ruoqing treats that young master differently from others, isn't it?

The girl turned to look at her, a look of surprise gradually appeared on her face, as if something terrible had happened.

Isn't the best ending for these actors to marry a young master like this? Although they cannot become wives, even if they are concubines, if they can be treated well by the other party, it is still an excellent destination.

Sister Ruoqing is not only good at singing, she is also talented in poetry. Many talented people have revealed this intention. One named Jiang Zian even pursued her fiercely. However, Sister Ruoqing did not agree. It turned out that it was because of her heart. Belong.

That young master is very kind to others, and he shouldn't treat Sister Ruoqing badly. However, you have to be careful about the woman who likes to wield swords. When she climbed the wall, she saw her practicing swordsmanship in the yard. Such a person, It's definitely not easy to mess with.

If Sister Ruoqing enters his house, she might be bullied by her. That woman is so powerful. Even if she and Sister Ruoqing combined, I'm afraid she won't be her match...

The girl began to feel faintly worried in her heart.

"What are you thinking about?" Wan Ruoqing saw the girl's face changing constantly, sometimes happy and sometimes worried, so she gently tapped her head and asked.

"If sister Ruoqing marries Mr. Li, I'm afraid she has to be careful about that person..." The girl subconsciously expressed her worries.

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wan Ruoqing.

"Don't talk nonsense. Mr. Li is a family man. He and I are innocent."

"I know, you have an innocent relationship between a man and a woman." The girl curled her lips and said.

He would use such an excuse to lie to himself. If the two of them were innocent, how could they be sent back by him in the middle of the night last time?

Frankly speaking, she still felt that there would be nothing wrong with Sister Ruoqing if she followed him.

"You Yuzhu, you are asking for a beating, right?"

Wan Ruoqing raised her hand, and the girl hurriedly stood up from her seat, stuck out her tongue, and said, "Sister Ruo Qing, if you're sorry, I can be your matchmaker. I think he likes Sister Ruo Qing too..." "

"And he said..."

Wan Ruoqing blushed and hurriedly chased after her. The girl screamed and ran away immediately.

…

…

"Li Xianwei's physical recovery is far beyond my expectation." When Dr. Chen from Huichun Hall came for a follow-up consultation, he said with a look of amazement after taking Li Yi's pulse.

It stands to reason that an injury like his last time would take an ordinary person at least several months to recover. Even a physically strong person would need several months to recover to his current level.

At this time, only ten days had passed since he was injured.

The county captain looked like a frail scholar, but his recovery speed was really amazing.

Li Yi felt a chill in his heart when he saw the old man looking at him, as if he was looking at some precious item, maybe thinking of taking him away for study or something.

After seeing Dr. Chen off, he did not continue to lie down. He strolled in the yard for a while, did Tai Chi twice, and stretched his muscles.

His activities in the past few days have been on the road from here to Goulan. He eats more and moves less. I don't know if he has gained a few pounds.

Given his current physical condition, some appropriate exercise would be beneficial and harmless.

Of course, it is limited to walking and practicing Tai Chi. More intense activities are not suitable.

Ruyi took Ruyi and Xiaohuan out. Regardless of ancient and modern times, shopping is a woman's nature, and it is the same for big women and small women. Especially when there is no shortage of money at home, the prosperous Qing'an Prefecture City is like a paradise for them.

The weather is cold, Ruyi Lu is no longer produced, and Ruyifang is temporarily closed. Several girls returned to the village. With Ruyi and Ruyi here, there is no need to worry about safety issues. Lao Fang only comes once in a while.

After living in the prefecture for a long time, the various inconveniences of mountain village life are not adapted to. Perhaps because she is bored at home alone, Ruyi also moved down a few days ago and slept in the same room with Xiaohuan and Ruyi at night.

Although this makes the room a little crowded, the three girls also lived like this when they were young, so there is nothing to get used to.

In the past few days, he still went to the brothel for a while every day. Sometimes he would sit in the yard with Ruyi to bask in the sun, watching Liu Ruyi practice the Tai Chi swordsmanship he had just taught her, and correcting her wrong movements from time to time.

When he taught Ruyi Tai Chi, she only watched it twice and could play it more standardly than him. Miss Liu Er’s talent might not be that high, which just gave Li Yi a chance to satisfy his master addiction.

But now they are not here. After Li Yi finished two sets of boxing, he inadvertently saw a familiar head popping up on the opposite wall.

"The story of "Yingning" is not finished yet." The girl lay on the wall, watching him finish those strange movements, looking over, and then spoke.

Li Yi hadn't seen her climbing the wall for several days, and now there was someone to relieve his boredom. In fact, the story of "Yingning" had almost been told in the previous few times, and only a few parts were left.

Today, the girl was obviously absent-minded, listening silently, unlike before when she would ask questions from time to time.

"After tomorrow, if you want to watch operas and listen to music, go to other brothels." After the story was finished, the girl sighed and said.

"Why?" Li Yi asked with some doubts.

Although there are many brothels in the nearby theater, the environment of the one they are in is better. He has been going there every day these days. If he suddenly changes places, he will not be used to it.

"Because there are too few customers, Grandpa Sun and the others are all leaving." The girl sighed again and said leisurely.

Customers are the foundation of their survival. If there are no customers, they can't even maintain the most basic survival. If they can't make money in one place, they will naturally change places.

Grandpa Sun and the others actually had the intention to leave a long time ago, but because of the story of "Painted Skin" last time, they still had a little fantasy in their hearts, but the depression for several days in a row also made them completely disappointed.

Even if she told him the story of "Yingning", it would only be lively for a few days. What's more, one or even several stories can't support so many people.

Everyone left, so naturally she and Sister Ruoqing couldn't stay here either. They didn't know how to spend the rest of their lives.

"Leave? Don't!" Li Yi saw that she didn't look like she was joking, and hurriedly advised her.

If they all left, where would he go to spend his time in the rest of his life?
