After a while.
Shu Xiaoxiao carried the basin of water over with some difficulty.
Her little face turned red, and the fine hair on her forehead was wet and stuck together by sweat.
"Sir, here I come!"
"Yeah!" Jiang Yuan nodded slightly.
After Jiang Yuan finished washing up under the care of Shu Xiaoxiao, he said to her, "Come with me to Yunyan Tower to listen to some music today!"
"Ah! Sir, shall I go with you?"
"Yeah!" Jiang Yuan nodded while wiping his hands.
"Do we need to call Uncle Ma and the others?"
“No need!”
Along the way, Shu Xiaoxiao's face was full of excitement.
His eyes, full of curiosity, kept looking around.
Everything in Lin'an County was extremely new to her.
When she first came to Lin'an County, she was sold to Yunyanlou by her parents.
At that time, my heart was filled with darkness and I had no time to care about her.
My mood is completely different now. I feel safe and secure being with Jiang Yuan.
There was peace in my heart! When the two were halfway along the journey.
A voice suddenly came from behind.
"Mr. Jiang, please wait!"
Jiang Yuan looked back and saw a wealthy old man looking at him with a smile.
"Who are you?" Jiang Yuan was a little confused.
At this moment, the door curtain of the sedan chair next to it was suddenly swept open.
"It's me!"
An old and gentle voice came into Jiang Yuan's ears.
"It turned out to be Master Xia!"
Jiang Yuan bowed and said, "I wonder what advice Master Xia has for you?"
The man who came was the county government's legal advisor. Almost all the affairs of the county government, big or small, were handled by him alone.
He can be called one of Li Hong's true confidants.
Master Xia looked at Shu Xiaoxiao, then at Jiang Yuan.
"Where are you going?"
"Yunyan Tower!" Jiang Yuan said.
When he heard these three words, he frowned immediately.
Then he said, "Jiang Yuan, you are still young and talented, why don't you practice instead of wasting your time in this kind of brothel?"
"Do you know? The county lord is very disappointed with you recently!"
Jiang Yuan: “.”
Jiang Yuan looked at him speechlessly.
Then he said calmly: "I went to Yunyan Tower to practice."
"You" He was choked when he heard Jiang Yuan's words.
Then he sighed and said, "Well, it's up to you. I'm leaving now. I hope you can take care of yourself in the future."
After saying this, he returned to the sedan chair.
There was a hint of anger in his tone: "Butler Lin, go back home!"
"yes!"
The slightly plump middle-aged man lowered his head and responded.
Then he opened his voice and said, "Go!"
After watching the yamen lawyer's bridge go away, Jiang Yuan vaguely heard a sentence.
"It is indeed a rotten tree that cannot be carved!"
After a moment.
Shu Xiaoxiao said softly: "Sir, is this a conflict with him? Jiang Yuan smiled and said: "What conflict! He also has good intentions, but he thinks too highly of himself!"
After saying that, Jiang Yuan shook his head.
"Let's go!"
Seeing this, Shu Xiaoxiao hurriedly followed.
After a moment.
Yunyan Tower.
Jiang Yuan just stepped into the door.
A familiar voice suddenly came to my ears.
"Hey, isn't this Young Master Jiang?"
"I was wondering why I kept hearing the calls of magpies just now. It turns out that Master Jiang has come to visit!"
The old lady from before immediately came over with a smile on her face.
Then, she came to Jiang Yuan and said somewhat embarrassedly: "Mr. Jiang, it's only noon now, and the girls are all resting."
Jiang Yuan waved his hand and said, "Call Su Xin to play a little song for me."
Hearing this, she instantly changed from worry to joy: "Her! No problem, no problem!"
After saying that, she hurried to the backyard.
A moment later.
Jiang Yuan had just had a drink of wine when there was a knock on the door.
"Enter!"
Creak!
The door slowly opened.
A young girl appeared in front of Jiang Yuan, about 29 years old, dressed in plain white.
"My humble self is Su Xin, and I am honored to meet you, Master Jiang!"
She bowed gracefully.
【Name】:Bai Susu
[Realm]: Not yet entered
[Innate Destiny]: Sound of nature (white), Master of music (white), Family of scholars (white)
[Heavenly Voice]: With an outstanding voice, her singing can soothe the soul.
[Proficient in Music]: She is a master of playing the piano, and her music can reach people's heart directly.
[Family of Scholars]: Born into a family of scholars, he possesses outstanding talents in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Then she sat aside gracefully.
"I don't know what Mr. Jiang wants to hear."
"Whatever, play what you are good at, something gentle."
She nodded slightly.
Then his slender fingers fell on the strings.
In an instant, the sound was like the flow of a clear spring and the rippling of water droplets.
It was as if a breeze was blowing through the mountains and hundreds of birds were singing in the woods.
A comfortable feeling appeared in Jiang Yuan's mind.
The dull pain between my eyebrows was relieved a lot at once.
good!
Jiang Yuan nodded slightly.
My guess was correct; her piano playing did have the effect of soothing mental trauma.
Afterwards, Jiang Yuan lay on Shu Xiaoxiao's legs.
Shu Xiaoxiao immediately understood what he meant and placed her fingers between Jiang Yuan's temples, massaging gently.
This day.
In the No. 1 box on the second floor, piano music and singing could be heard all day long.
evening.
Jiang Yuan slowly opened his eyes.
Looking at the girl in white in front of him, he pursed his lips and tears rolled down his eyes.
Blood was oozing from the fingertips.
Jiang Yuan said: "Do you hate me?"
As Jiang Yuan spoke, the music of the piano slowly stopped.
Su Xin shook her head and wiped her tears with her sleeves.
"I don't dare, or I don't hate!"
"I dare not hate, and I don't hate!"
Jiang Yuan said: "You are quite honest!"
Then he continued, "I heard that your father is the governor of Qinghe County?"
Su Xin nodded, but was unwilling to say more.
Jiang Yuan looked at her plain white clothes and said, "You have been in mourning for three years. You are quite filial!"
"It's just what children should do!"
She pursed her lips and said.
Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "I heard that you just want to be a prostitute?"
Suddenly, she looked at Jiang Yuan with wide eyes.
Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "You played the piano well today and helped me. I will fulfill your wish."
As he spoke, Jiang Yuan pulled the red rope.
When the red rope moves, the bell downstairs will ring.
They will know that there is something going on upstairs for them.
Hearing Jiang Yuan's words.
Su Xin fell to her knees on the ground with a plop.
"Thank you for your kindness, Master Jiang!"
No one knows how much torture she has endured to remain innocent until now.
Because his father committed a heinous crime, dozens of members of his family were exiled or beheaded.
She was also reduced to a prostitute. If they had not remembered that she was the legitimate daughter of the former Qinghe County Magistrate and that her father still had some connections during his lifetime, they would not have dared to force her too much.
If it weren't for all these reasons, her so-called struggle would have been in vain.
But now, with Jiang Yuan speaking up, she knew she was safe and could keep her innocent body.
Jiang Yuan said calmly, "No need to thank me. You played the guqin for an entire afternoon and earned it yourself."
