Chapter 340: Who's Embarrassed by Whom?
readx;?ā Ah, why is that? ā
Jia Huan couldn't hide his surprise, looked at Dan'er, and put down the porridge bowl in his hand. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Su Shishi was fine the day before yesterday, why did she suddenly leave Jinling and return to the capital?
Since last night, Dan'er who was driven out of Yunyan Courtyard was full of grievances and sadness, although he quarreled with Li's mother, but the grievance in his heart was still stuffed in his chest, and when he saw Jia Huan asking, his voice suddenly cried, wiping his tears and said: "Mr. Jia, Uncle Zhen went to Yunyan Courtyard last night to ask my girl to spend the night with him." The girl didn't want to. He's going to drive the girl out of Jinling, and I'm going to disqualify her from the Oiran Contest..."
Qingwen frowned when she heard this, and hugged on the side: "Miss Su is right, then Uncle Zhen is too shameless!" ā
Su Shishi came to teach Miss Lin musical instruments at home, and she spoke appropriately and transparently, and she and Zijuan and Ruyi all liked Miss Su.
Jia Huan rubbed his eyebrows and took a deep breath.
Zhen Li looks suave, with the power of the Zhen family, how can a person like him lack a woman? I didn't expect that in front of Su Shishi's beauty, I couldn't hold it! After being rejected by Su Shishi, he became angry.
He drove Su Shishi out of Jinling. It was completely to put Su Shishi's dignity under her feet, and then throw her away like a rag. Very devastating.
This made Jia Huan very uncomfortable. No matter how you say it, he is familiar with Su Shishi. Before Su Shishi went south, Mr. Longjiang also specially entrusted him to write two letters to Fang Wang, the master of the seat, and Zhang Anbo, the chief of the mountain, to shelter her. However, when he was in Jinling, Su Shishi humiliated Zhen Li! How can this make him embarrassed?
Also, you Zhen Dashao refused to give a courtesan, he had no face, he didn't fulfill his wishes, and he had an evil fire in his heart, so he had to be punished slightly.
However, Su Shishi's thoughts, who cares? It's cool to force her will, trample on her dignity, and insult her personality, right?
Bastard!
Jia Huan has always been very calm and mature, but this does not mean that Zhen Li is indifferent to the unspoken rules of his acquaintances! Calm and mature only represent a man's growth and IQ, not cold-bloodedness.
What's more, he also hopes that Su Shishi will help him sell perfume at the Oiran competition. This is the most important thing to solve his current economic predicament.
"Lecture Notes of the Academy" was sold in Zhiren Bookstore for more than a month, and he lost more than 1,000 taels of silver for this alone. Coupled with the entanglement given to his friend Pang Ze in the north, the remaining silver in his hand was less than 2,000 taels. This also needs to support a family of 20 people for about a year. A little nervous.
Jia Huan said in a deep voice: "Dan'er, you go and invite Miss Shishi." She didn't have to leave Jinling. I'll help her solve the problem of qualifying for the Oiran Contest. ā
Dan'er was stunned, "Ah..., Mr. Jia." Then he reacted and raised his eyebrows, "Oh, good, good." "A quick dash of smoke ran out.
Qingwen is very smart, as soon as she heard Jia Huan's words, she knew what he meant, her brows furrowed, she peeled the eggs for Jia Huan, the egg shells fell on the square table, and she pursed her lips and asked with a smile: "Third master, do you want to help Miss Su?" ā
Jia Huan nodded, "Hmm." Help her, and help myself. ā
He and Zhen Li fell out before going to Suzhou. He refused to use the political resources of the Jia family to solve the current deficit dilemma for the Zhen family.
Jia Huan took a sip of porridge. Look into the courtyard.
ā¦
When Su Shishi followed Dan'er to Jia Huan's house on He'an Street, Jia Huan, Daiyu, and Aunt Pei were talking in the living room in the backyard, waiting.
Su Shishi was wearing a light cyan dress, and her face was haggard, like a bright flower that had lost its luster. came in from outside the door, saluted Jia Huan, and said gratefully: "Shishi Xie Jia Mr. help!" ā
"You're welcome. I'm counting on Miss Sthere to help me sell my perfume. Jia Huan smiled gently and invited Su Shishi to sit down.
Jia Huan asked Ruyi to bring Su Shishi breakfast: a bowl of hot porridge, a few buns, and eggs. "Breakfast first, we'll talk about the Oiran Contest later."
Smelling the porridge, Su Shishi's tears flowed down, and she couldn't cry, "Woo...". She hadn't eaten since she left Yunyan Courtyard last night.
Looking at Su Shishi, who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, tears rolled down her fair face, and Aunt Pei shook her head gently. The famous prostitute looked at the scenery, but in fact she was sad and knew herself.
Seeing Su Shishi's sadness crying, Daiyu sympathized in her heart and said, "Third brother, the people of the Zhen family are really hateful. ā
Last winter, when I was playing in a certain sorrowful lake, the servants of the Zhen family were arrogant and domineering, and the third girl of the Zhen family was unreasonable, and now the uncle of the Zhen family actually bullied a weak woman. Miss Su is teaching her a musical instrument!
Seeing Daiyu's appearance of hatred and hatred, Jia Huan smiled and nodded, "Hmm." ā
Sister Lin has a small temperament of love, "sharp teeth and sharp mouth", and loves to cry. She was like a hedgehog with thorns in her house, but it was just a strong shell for her weak heart to protect herself. She is such a poetic and sensitive woman, with a delicate, innocent and kind heart.
Mother Li, who came with Su Shishi, was in the hall in the front yard, and Jia Huan ordered someone to bring her breakfast.
After Su Shishi had breakfast, Jia Huan took Daiyu, Aunt Pei, Su Shishi and others down the river by boat and went to Mochou Lake to compete.
Today's Oiran match was played on the first floor of the Victory Building. At that time, Mr. Nakasan, who presided over the Oiran Contest, the people in the "jury", well-known scholars from all over Jiangnan, and famous prostitutes who did not participate in the competition gathered together. Watch the performance of the ten famous prostitutes from Jiangnan who entered the semi-finals up close.
The Oiran Contest is divided into preliminary rounds and semi-finals, a total of 15 days. The preliminary round lasts for 10 days and the semi-final rounds lasts for 5 days. In fact, only the first two days of these five days were used for competitions, and the last three days were used for various communication and promotion activities.
It is foreseeable that today will be crowded with people. Daiyu's appearance is slightly disguised so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. The so-called red face and troubled water!
When the boat arrived at Xishuiguan, Jia Huan, Daiyu, and Su Shishi got off the boat and walked to the Shengqi Building in Mochou Lake. There was a talking crowd all along the way. There are also some bazaars, which are bustling with people and bustling.
Jia Huan couldn't laugh or cry. This is really elegant and vulgar! In the Shengqi Building, I am appreciating the beauty and talent, and I am doing a market outside.
Arrived at the half mile in front of the Shengqi Building, and the colored shed that was erected was circled. Most of the people gathered here were scholars, and there were a few servants waiting. Jia Huan asked Qian Huai to go to the post to find Mr. Zhongsan. He, Daiyu, Su Shishi and others were waiting outside the Shengqi Building, ready to enter.
Su Shishi stood beside Jia Huan and whispered, "Mr. Jia, if it doesn't work, forget it." Iā" She was a little worried that Jia Huan didn't have as much energy in Jinling as he did in the capital. made Jia Huan embarrassed, and she couldn't help it.
The beauty is fragrant. Jia Huan said firmly: "It's okay." It can be seen that Su Shishi is a little nervous.
At this time, a man in a white shirt came out of the Shengqi Building, described as handsome and with a long posture, and walked in front of Jia Huan and several people. It's Zhen Li.
Zhen Li arched his hand coldly, turned his gaze to Su Shishi's face beside Jia Huan, and then fell back to Jia Huan, and said in a cold tone: "Brother Jia must be embarrassed with me?" He didn't believe that Jia Huan didn't know what happened last night.
He expelled Su Shishi from the Jinling and Jiangnan Oiran competitions in public last night. And now, Jia Huan is bringing Su Shishi to the competition. This is a clear indication that you can't get along with him.
Jia Huan's indifference to the Zhen family, the Zhen family is very clear. And Jia Huan refused to let Concubine Jia intercede for the Zhen family, although he was not the leader of the Jia family, but it was enough to affect the decision-making of the Jia family, which made the Zhen family angry. Therefore, since Jia Huan returned from Suzhou, this is the first time he has met Jia Huan.
Jia Huan laughed, "Brother Li, I'm going to embarrass Miss Shishi, right?" ā
It's not that you don't have sin if you have a point. Otherwise, what else is the law going on? Zhen Li forced Su Shishi to sell herself and used means to suppress her, which was wrong.
The titles of Jia Huan and Zhen Li are still the names of the world's friends. It's a face-saving effort. Jia Huan and Zhen Li are very skilled. The Jia family and the Zhen family are still old friends and have a deep friendship.
A cold star flashed in Zhen Li's eyes, and an angry look appeared on his face. He had scolded Jia Huan earlier for "giving shame to his face", and now Jia Huan is even more "rubbing his nose on his face".
"Good. Good. What if Su Shishi participated? She was doomed to nothing. This Oiran contest, you don't count. Zhen Li pointed at Jia Huan and shook it contemptuously. With anger, he turned and left.
After a few threats to Zhen Li, Jia Huan frowned slightly and groaned.
Su Shishi said apologetically: "Mr. Jia, I've embarrassed you." "Just now, Jia Huan faced the pressure of Zhen Li. It reminded her of the unpleasant experience she had last night. At the same time, I was also worried about Zhen Li's words. The Zhen family is the first family in Jiangnan.
"Expected, isn't it?" Jia Huan comforted gently: "Don't think about it, play with peace of mind." I don't count the Oiran Contest, and he doesn't count what he said! ā
Daiyu and the others chuckled at Jia Huan's words.
Su Shishi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
At this time, Qian Huai followed behind a middle-aged servant. Mr. Nakasan sent someone to pick Jia Huan in.
"Let's go!"
Jia Huan took the lead and led everyone into the hall.
From Jia Huan's point of view, he can make a profit as long as Su Shishi is willing to participate in the competition to help him sell perfumes. Of course, Su Shishi's goal is to protect the four and fight for one. He was still thinking about what tricks Zhen Li would do. Today's contest is a contest to sing poetry.
You can write your own poems, or you can find someone to write them for you. This will fully reflect the cultural literacy of a famous prostitute. Even if you can't write good words, you can be with celebrities.
The "jury" scored relatively high.
Tomorrow's second show will be a comparison of talents. It can be musical instruments, dances, etc.
ā¦
Although the hall on the first floor of the Shengqi Building is very large, there are many people here today, and Jia Huan can only bring two people in. Jia Huan took Su Shishi and Daiyu in.
Aunt Pei and the others turned to the area outside to drink tea and wait. From the outside of the main gate, you can see the performances of the famous prostitutes in the hall. It's kind of an auditorium.
In early summer, there is a cool breeze in the hall. It was clear that ice cubes were used. The huge hall is facing five open doors and seats on three sides. Sitting in the center is Mr. Nakasan, who is presiding over the Oiran Contest, and on the left and right are dignitaries.
There are: Chen Gaolang, the secretary of the Nanjing Officials, Deng Hong, the Nanjing garrison, Zheng Guogong, Wei Hong, the secretary of the Nanjing Household Department, Zhang Jingwei, the left capital of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate, Jia Yucun, the prefect of Jinling, Zhen Yingjia, the president of the Tiren Academy, etc.
The mountain chief Zhang Anbo is qualified to occupy a seat here, but the mountain chief is presiding over the reform of the national sub-prison wholeheartedly and did not come here.
Mr. Zhongsan is an old man in his fifties, wearing a light gray caftan and a Tang scarf today, sitting on the side of the desk, stroking his palms and smiling: "Haha, Ziyu is good to come." We're waiting for your top 10 songs for today. Eyes and ears for the sake of the eyes. (To be continued.) )
