Chapter 40 Mid-Autumn Festival and the Fox Demon (Part 2)
The music slowly stopped.
Right in front of them, the prostitutes in red and green also stopped, bowed together, and walked away with their heads down.
“Ding~”
A clear bell rang out, and then everyone saw a figure in red floating over, like a fairy descending to the mortal world.
Her black hair is like a waterfall, her neck is like jade, her shoulders are half exposed, and she looks graceful.
Although Yang Liushi was not wearing too little, the few small pieces of skin exposed were enough to cause the sound of people swallowing saliva to be heard in the room.
If this woman were in her previous life, the rate of people turning their heads to look at her would probably reach 1,000 percent.
Wei Changtian and Liu Zongliang were too busy looking at each other at this moment, as they had already shifted their attention to the main person.
Compared to Liu Zongliang, who was almost drooling, Wei Changtian was much calmer.
Because he knew very well in his heart that she was a fox demon!
But to be honest, Yang Liushi was indeed the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his two lifetimes.
Before that, it should be Lu Jingyao...
Amid dozens of greedy gazes, Yang Liushi sat down slowly, without a trace of shyness on her beautiful little face.
"My lords."
A soft voice like water came out from her cherry lips, making you feel tingling and numb.
"I am flattered that you are here today to show your support."
"I tied the wrong belt when I was changing my clothes just now, and accidentally delayed me for some time."
"I will drink a cup of wine to apologize to you all."
Her face was half covered by her long sleeves and her brows were slightly furrowed. After just one glass of wine, a blush appeared on Yang Liushi's cheeks.
She glanced at everyone with a seductive look, gently holding the empty wine cup in her hand.
"I'll have a drink with Miss Liu Shi!"
Someone suddenly shouted, and the others came to their senses and echoed loudly: "I'll have a drink too!"
"Miss Liu Shi, please don't blame yourself. We will never blame you!"
"That's absolutely true!"
“…”
For a moment, the house was bustling with activity.
Even though these people are all arrogant young men from wealthy families, being a dog licker has little to do with their status or wealth.
Who says that just because you are rich and powerful you can’t lick women?
Want to know more about the night of missing you? A group of young men pretended to be heroic and raised their glasses to drink, trying to leave a good impression on Yang Liushi.
Only Wei Changtian did not move.
He kept looking at Yang Liushi, whose face was full of smiles, and felt a little emotional.
No wonder she is the most beautiful courtesan. Not only is she pretty, but she also speaks in a very witty way! Changing clothes? Tied the wrong belt? So I am late?
Although this excuse was extremely perfunctory, it was hard not to think of her appearance when she was undressing.
It can be said that this one sentence alone is more tempting than many women taking off all their clothes.
And she also used the very ambiguous term "official" to refer to someone...
Wow, this must be considered top-grade green tea.
While Wei Changtian was thinking, he picked up a handful of melon seeds and started eating them.
Such unusual behavior was naturally noticed by Yang Liushi.
Her eyes, as clear as autumn water, looked over, and seemed to be filled with some anger.
Wei Changtian looked back at him with some amusement and spat out a mouthful of melon seed shells.
This move was already very disrespectful to Yang Liushi, but the latter did not show any shame or anger on his face. He just smiled slightly, as if he was really amused.
It’s really difficult.
Wei Changtian withdrew his gaze, and Yang Liushi spoke again at this time.
"My fellow lords, tonight is the Mid-Autumn Festival, which should be a time for family reunion."
"I have lost my parents, but fortunately I have you all by my side. I am so grateful that I want to sing a little song to express my gratitude."
"I wonder if I can?"
There was a hint of sadness in the soft and sticky tone, as if it truly expressed the feelings of a poor woman who missed her family.
Someone immediately comforted her: "Miss Liu Shi, don't be sad. We are all your family!"
"Exactly!"
"It is a great honor to be able to listen to the immortal music today!"
“…”
Wow, all the family members are out, right?
Wei Changtian thought that Yang Liushi would be a good hand at live streaming to sell goods, and at this time, bursts of piano sounds came from the stage.
"The oriole on the branch is weeping, new tears are mixed with old tears. There is no news from fish and birds all spring, and the soul is tired from dreams of thousands of miles away..."
"Without a word, I look at the beautiful woman. I am heartbroken until dusk..."
"Just now I can light the lamp, the rain is beating on the pear blossoms, and I close the door tightly..."
“…”
When the song ended, the piano music stopped.
There was the sound of rippling water outside the window, and Chang'e on the moon seemed to have disappeared.
The audience was stunned for a moment, and then burst into an uproar.
…
Different from ordinary brothel girls who can "hang their clothes" for money.
For courtesans like Yang Liushi, or the top performers in various buildings and halls, the selection process between them and their customers is often a two-way process.
This process is generally called "drinking tea" or "drinking flower wine".
The specific selection methods are different, most of them are playing pairs or flying flowers.
There are also people who like to play games like dice and pot-shooting, but they are obviously not suitable for such a "high-end" game today.
Of course, it is undoubtedly difficult to ask these uneducated young men to recite poems.
This is when the literati and poets around them came in handy.
Just like at this moment, a scholar with a Xiaoyao scarf on his head was playing the Feihua Order for his master.
"Mountain... this word is too simple!"
"The mountain scenery and objects are full of spring sunshine, don't plan to return home just because of the slight overcast weather!"
"good!"
Someone immediately applauded, and the scholar sat down proudly. Then he heard the next person immediately follow up with a call: "Returning home with gray hair, seeing the painting can still remind me of the past!"
"Nian...I have one too!"
"When the year comes, Liang Yan and his wife are both here. If they are willing to worry about you, they won't come!"
“…”
The sound of reciting poems rang out one after another, but it was just the self-entertainment of the scholars.
Because everyone knew that Yang Liushi would definitely not use this to decide who she would sleep with tonight.
If it wasn't for deepening Miss Liu Shi's impression of me, it wouldn't matter whether I participated in this kind of thing or not.
For example, Wei Changtian did not participate.
The Wei family also kept a few literary retainers, but he thought it was too stupid to ask others to recite poems for him.
As for taking the stage himself... I'm sorry, he doesn't know any poems from this world.
Before I knew it, several rounds of Feihualing had passed and the full moon outside the window was gradually setting in the west.
Just as the gong sound representing the midnight sounded on the shore, Yang Liushi gently waved her hand to call a maid to her side and whispered a few words to her.
Everyone shut up instantly, and then they heard the little maid's crisp voice say:
"My dear gentlemen, my young lady said that she hasn't heard any new lyrics or poems for a long time. She wanted me to come up with a topic and ask you to write one. What do you think?"
"Just ask the questions, young lady!"
"The winner will be decided by poetry, Ya!"
"Hurry up and give me a question!"
Everyone responded, knowing in their hearts that the "decisive moment" had finally arrived.
They had made preparations for this. Not only did they bring the most talented retainers in the family, but many of them had already written poems on the theme of Mid-Autumn Festival in advance, waiting to bring them out later to make a splash and win the beauty in the end.
However, the question asked by the little maid surprised them.
"Singing about the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival is too cliché..."
The maid smiled playfully and said, "My young lady is so beautiful, even compared to Chang'e, I'm afraid she is not inferior. Why not... let's use the young lady's beauty as the theme!"
"this……"
"Haha! Good!"
"Just so!"
When hearing this topic, some people looked bitter, some looked calm, and some were complacent.
But Wei Changtian was a little surprised.
This title must have been suggested by Yang Liushi, but it was spoken through the maid's mouth.
Asking others to write poems praising her beauty... Is this fox demon so narcissistic? ? ? (End of this chapter)
