Chapter 34: One Poem, Thank You

Chapter 34 A Poem, Thank You
"Women in brothels also have affection."

"Friendship? It's clearly an insult."

"A man wants to marry, but the ancestors don't want it?"

"This Lu Ting is a well-known prodigal son. When Ye Niang was alive, she relied on Ye Niang. When Ye Niang is gone, she wants to climb the dragon and the phoenix and eat fine grains and soft rice. It's really unreasonable."

"That silver hairpin is worth at least as usual, much more valuable than the green jade hairpin with more than ten liters. I didn't see a brothel girl and looked down on Lu Ting, alas."

There is excitement, and there will never be a lack of people eating melons. When Lu Ting and Wu Lin satirized each other, many people surrounded them, each of them stretched their necks to watch with relish. After Xiao Xianger threw the silver hairpin, many people Discuss in a low voice.

A flash of anger flashed in Lu Ting's eyes. He just wanted to buy some seasoning for making crab roe buns. Passing by here, he didn't provoke anyone, but some people refused to make him feel better. If Wu Lin made it difficult for him, it's fine. The two fought. After such a long time, there are many old and new grudges, even a brothel woman wants to step on her, who will give her face.

The previous life spent a lot of money on this bitch, and at the most difficult time, she could hardly eat, and even used the money to buy tea to surround her, but this little Xiang'er didn't miss the old love at all, which caused the previous life to throw herself into the river, and now she is still a bitch. From the point of irony that she wants to marry, it's obviously to please Wu Lin, to treat herself as a virgin?
Lu Ting glanced at the silver hairpin on the ground, but didn't pick it up. He turned around and cupped his hands and said, "Miss Xiang'er's hairpin is too expensive, and I'm ashamed to accept it. It's just the saying that you come and don't reciprocate indecently." Also, this young master also presented Miss Xiang'er with a poem in return."

Send a poem?The people present were stunned for a moment, that was the style of a literati, but Lu Ting was a prodigal son who was recognized as ignorant and incompetent, he could compose poetry?
Xiao Xiang'er's originally disdainful eyes were full of anticipation. You must know that literati are the favorite guests of women in brothels. If word spreads, the status of a woman will also increase. There is a brothel woman named Xiaoyuaner in Hangzhou. She was just a little flower. Once, a literati fell in love with her and wrote a masterpiece for her. Then she jumped straight from Xiaohua. After being a beautiful woman and a red card, she became the most sought after oiran, and finally she was favored by the officials' children, who redeemed her body and entered a wealthy family.

If you have this kind of luck, that would be great.

Wu Lin looked at Lu Ting in surprise, thinking that this prodigal son can also write poetry?

Lu Ting ignored the gazes of others, glanced at Xiao Xiang'er who was still leaning on Wu Lin's arms, and said, "This poem is called To Miss Xiang'er in Baihualou."

After speaking, chant aloud:

"Erba Xiang'er dresses skillfully, and the bridegroom changes every night in the bridal chamber.

A pair of jade arms is a pillow for thousands of people, and a little bit of red lips is tasted by thousands of people.

Make a hundred times the bridge posture, pretending to be a good heart.

How much to welcome and send, to make two lines of lovesickness and tears. "

As soon as the voice was spoken, Xiao Xiang'er's face, which had been looking forward to it, turned pale in an instant, her thin lips trembled with anger, and her eyes looking at Lu Ting became venomous.

This poem is not bad, but it is written too well. It portrays a heartless, ungrateful, shameless brothel girl to three points. Although most of the brothel girls are like this, the poem is called "Gift to Baihualou Xianger Girl" , Xiang'er was also written in the first line of the poem. It can be said that he nailed himself to the pillar of shame at once, and he could never turn over.

Xiao Xiang'er's guess was right, after Lu Ting chanted, the crowd suddenly boiled up:
"Change the groom every night, this sentence is really funny."

"That's right, didn't the brothel girl say that she was pretending to be pitiful and innocent, but I heard that Xiao Xiang'er is a little rascal, and she likes to call people to be her husband when they have sex, it's really shameless."

"My lord knows this. When Mr. Lu went to play tea at Baihualou, it was this little Xianger who moved Mr. Lu's cup. At that time, Mr. Lu refused, and she even satirized Mr. Lu viciously. In the end, Mr. Lu got angry. However, he threw himself into the river in a rage, but fortunately he was rescued, and now he is throwing a hairpin as a gift, which is just pretending to be kind."

"A pair of jade arms is a pillow for thousands of people, and a little bit of red lips is tasted by thousands of people. Hehe, Xiaoxianger in Baihualou is also aptly described."

"This kind of woman also has supporters? Hehe, that smelly excrement also has fly stings, which is a perfect match for Wu Lin's silver wax gun head."

"Mr. Lu was originally a romantic and talented man. This poem can be said to be his personal experience. Thinking about it, the old man misunderstood him a little bit."

"That's right. Although Mr. Lu had a mediocre reputation in the past, I have never heard of him doing bad things. You are a young man. It is understandable to be a little messy, as long as you get back when you get lost."

Everyone said something to each other, and during the conversation, Lu Ting's previous absurd things became messy. Many people took the initiative to clean up the land for him, and Xiao Xiang'er became the target of public criticism, and she almost became a disgrace to Suzhou. Discussing the matter, Lu Ting cupped his hands around and left with a smile on his face.

Seeing Lu Ting leave, Xiao Xiang'er was so angry that she almost gritted her silver teeth. She wanted to pursue the theory, but quickly dismissed the idea. Now that Lu Ting is in the limelight, who will help her?Wouldn't it make things worse if he was irritated and wrote a poem to satirize himself?

He was about to act coquettishly with Wu Lin and asked him to give him a hand. Unexpectedly, his waist loosened, and a hand was pulled away from his waist. Then he felt that he lost his center of gravity, and his body swayed. Wu Lin didn't say a word. Without saying anything, under the escort of the dog legs Guilin and Guiquan, he ran away in a hurry.

It seems that if you stay by your side for a while, it will stink.

Seeing the onlookers pointing at her with contempt, Xiao Xianger's mind went blank, knowing that she was completely finished, that poem was spread, her reputation was ruined, who would look for a woman from a brothel with a ruined reputation, Wasn't that pouring dirty water on her body? What would happen to a person who can't make money for a brothel? Xiao Xiang'er was afraid just thinking about it, and regretted it, but unfortunately there is no medicine for regret in this world.
Lu Ting didn't care so much, and left straight away after delivering the poem.

I don't want to cause trouble, I didn't say I'm afraid of trouble, a girl in a brothel really thinks she's a big shot, doesn't she just want to be famous, I will help you, this poem is said to be written by Lun Wen, so angry that one looks down on his name The prostitute almost wanted to commit suicide, but that little Xiang'er provoked her repeatedly, and the tiger kept treating herself as a sick cat without showing off.

With her personality, she would definitely not commit suicide, but it will be difficult to live a better life in the future. Lu Ting is in a good mood. Not only can she become famous this time, but she also indirectly avenged her predecessor, so let's repay him for giving herself a new life.

The good mood only lasted for a while, and when Lu Ting entered the Rongji grocery store, the good mood quickly disappeared:
"What? A bucket of flour costs 48 Wen?" Lu Ting said in surprise.

I wanted to buy some flour, but I didn't expect the clerk at the grain and oil store to ask for 48 cents a bucket, and I couldn't negotiate the price.

"Back to Mr. Xiaolang, our store has always been honest and honest. The price of 48 renminbi is very fair in Suzhou. If you don't believe me, you can shop around." The clerk said sincerely, "There are also cheaper ones. This kind of miscellaneous grain flour only costs 28 renminbi per bucket. "

Lu Ting looked at the cheap flour he said, there was something black in the yellow, he grabbed a handful and put it in front of his nose and smelled a musty smell, it was not only mixed with miscellaneous grains, but also moldy old grains, it was useless at all .

"Is there any pepper?"

"Yes, for the best pepper, one tael is only two pennies. If you want it, the master will let the shopkeeper take out the small ones for you to take care of."

One tael of pepper costs two pennies. Lu Ting gasped when he heard that the price of pepper is equivalent to twice the weight of gold. Not counting the black heart of the store, it is still in the normal price range.

When Emperor Daizong of the Tang Dynasty copied the prime minister Yuanzai's house, he found [-] shi of pepper. When Daizong learned about it, he was furious. Originally, he only killed Yuan Zai alone, but instead copied the whole family, because [-] shi of pepper was too expensive. He imagined that he was even more greedy. At that time, the value of pepper was equal to its weight in gold. Now it is the beginning of Tang Dynasty, with constant wars and impassable trade routes, the price has risen.

Lu Ting did some calculations, added up all his money and bought a couple of peppers, shook his head and said, "It's too expensive, don't want it now, is there any sugar?"

"There are high-quality maltose, which are not expensive, only [-] Wen per catty."

It doesn’t hurt to stand up and talk, and two hundred yuan a catty is not expensive. In this way, it’s a month’s hard work to do the bookkeeping by yourself, which is to buy a few catties of caramel.

There is no way, things like sugar and pepper were luxuries in ancient times, and because of the war, the price of goods is soaring, and things are expensive, but the price is really not cheap, Rongji can’t negotiate prices when selling things, Lu Ting thought for a while, I bought a bucket of high-quality flour, two qian peppercorns, and some condiments like salt, sugar, ginger and onion.

After buying it, I only have seventeen coins left on me, so I am still poor.

 The second chapter was delivered in time, let me ask you weakly, is there anyone - support - for a while?
