Everyone was still nervous about the birthday party, so they all changed the topic and ate snacks and chatted while listening to the actors playing music.
The target customers of Zhilanlou are noble ladies in Fengdu, although some of them have been spoiled and have developed strange habits and do not regard actors as human beings.
But they all pay attention to etiquette and family reputation, so this place is naturally not as smoky and chaotic as the places where men hang out.
The building is five stories high and covers a vast area. The interior is connected by corridors. There are no doors in the private rooms, and they are only blocked by pearl curtains and brocade screens from the outside world. However, they cannot block the sound of stringed instruments and orchestras coming from the stage on the first floor.
There is a small stage in each private room. At this moment, a handsome man with a white veil covering his face is playing the pipa and singing "Xizhou Qu".
"Recalling the plum blossoms, I went to Xizhou and picked some to send to Jiangbei.
The single shirt is apricot red, and the temples are the color of crow chicks.
Where is Xizhou? Two oars to cross the bridge.
At dusk, the shrike flies, and the wind blows the black locust tree..."
The voice is gentle and cold, making people feel empty inside.
But everyone was chatting enthusiastically and was not affected at all.
If we were to say what has attracted the most attention in Fengdu recently, it would still be the events at the Sixth Prince's mansion.
Speaking of Feng Zhuzhu, her identity is not simple.
Mainly the anecdotes about her parents, which have been popular in the powerful circle for many years.
Lord Feng, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, is an example of a man who rose from a poor family to become a noble by relying on his wife's family. Although he is a seemingly timid man, he has a large number of concubines in his harem.
Lord Feng has two loves, one is beauty, the other is food.
If I have to choose one or two, food is undoubtedly my favorite, even my future has to take a back seat!
After his official position was secured, he naturally led an extravagant life. He ate whatever he wanted without restraint. In just a few years, this well-mannered and refined scholar became a potbellied man.
If you eat too much and get fat, your body will always have problems.
Mrs. Feng often quarreled with him about this.
But he was the one who admitted his mistakes but refused to correct them. He seemed to be obedient when his wife scolded him, but then he turned around and ate as much as he could and brought back one or two beautiful maids.
Fortunately, Lord Feng knew who he relied on to get to where he is today, and he was too lazy to care about the quarrels in the harem. He simply threw the women he brought back to his wife and treated their children with indifference.
It is impossible to support the concubine to compete with his wife. He is not idle!
Mrs. Feng wanted to divorce several times, but Mr. Feng shamelessly went to the Yue family and pestered her.
The Yue family persuaded their girl to go back because of his good attitude of admitting his mistake.
Later, things took a turn for the better.
Mrs. Feng became pregnant and gave birth to a daughter. Her daughter was born plump and had a loud voice.
As she gets older, Feng Zhuzhu loves to eat and can eat as much as she wants. She will immediately turn against anyone who tries to withhold her food rations.
Lord Feng, who had been lonely in the art of eating for many years, finally found a person who shared the same interests with him, and the other person also had his blood flowing in him.
Look at that face plate, that little belly, and the way it eats with its mouth full of oil and without restraint -
Lord Feng laughed loudly towards the sky: Zhuzhu looks just like me!
So he took his little friend with him wherever he went, and they would go to the kitchen together to steal pork elbows in the middle of the night.
Under the pursuit of his wife, the father and daughter established a deep revolutionary friendship!
In Lord Feng's eyes, his only children are Zhuzhu and his other children.
Her biological mother was the mistress of the household and in charge of household expenses, and her biological father indulged her without any limits. Feng Zhuzhu became the bully of the Feng family and oppressed all the other illegitimate children.
Although the way of marrying into the Sixth Prince's mansion was not glorious and her identity was not good, Lord Feng loved his daughter as always and repeatedly petitioned the Sixth Prince to treat her better.
With the love and support of her mother's family, Feng Zhuzhu became more and more unscrupulous. In addition, she had no emotional intelligence, so all the Sixth Prince's hints were incomprehensible.
A few days ago, I heard from somewhere that if you want to capture a man, you must first capture his stomach.
Miss Feng, who had never done any housework, forcibly occupied the mansion's kitchen, cooked soup for Xiao Heng, and then burned down the kitchen.
No one in the mansion got any food to eat that day.
Xiao Hengguang was furious about this and called Feng Zhuzhu over to give her a good scolding. A normal person would have been extremely heartbroken facing the accusations from his loved one.
Feng Zhuzhu, however, acted as if nothing had happened and insisted on serving Xiao Hengguang. As Xiao Hengguang struggled hard, she accidentally slipped and broke his ribs with her buttocks.
Poor Sixth Prince, he lay back on bed.
Feng Zhuzhu, who was open-minded, naturally took care of Xiao Hengguang's food and daily life.
Wow, so miserable and funny!
"Sixth Brother's house is so lively every day!"
"Oh my God, you dare to hurt the prince, you think your life is too long!"
"I feel sorry for the Sixth Prince, but, haha! Allow me to smile first!"
"Ms. Feng is already the Sixth Prince's concubine, and she is behaving so unruly!"
As they were talking, everyone remembered something and looked at Lu Ningshuang in unison, their eyes filled with worry.
As young ladies, they all knew Lu Ningshuang's feelings for the Sixth Prince.
It was heartbreaking enough that her own sister replaced her as the Sixth Prince's wife, and now Feng Zhuzhu has taken the lead.
"I'm sorry Sister Shuang, I didn't mean to mention Sixth Brother, I..."
Anle lowered his head guiltily and carefully pulled Lu Ningshuang's sleeve and shook it.
Lu Ningshuang had just yawned, with tears about to fall from the corners of her eyes. Her sickly and thin figure made her look particularly pitiful.
"Lu Xiaoer, are you okay?"
Princess Pingxi lowered her voice and asked softly.
The actor's "Song of Xizhou" was coming to an end.
"The sea is dreaming, you are sad and I am sad too.
The south wind knows my wishes, and blows my dreams to Xizhou..."
Lu Ningshuang lowered her eyelashes and said softly:
"It's okay. The Sixth Prince and I were never meant to be together. Although I still feel a little painful, I have accepted the reality."
She looked into the void, forced a smile, and her voice was like the wind passing through the hall, bringing a chill to the heart.
"I am a sick person who may die at any time. I really don't deserve to be loved by anyone.
After all, every day I live is stolen from the King of Hell..."
Xie Qingluan hugged her in his arms lovingly and patted her back gently.
"Don't say that, Shuang'er. We all care about you. You are a good girl and deserve a lot of love."
Su Ciyue suddenly started laughing, breaking the depressing atmosphere.
"We have finally gathered together, so let's not talk about those things that spoil the fun. Princess, Yunniang from Xiaguang Pavilion is here."
Xiaguang Pavilion sells powder and lip balm, and also provides door-to-door makeup service, but Anle came here to do makeup with her sisters.
Walking to the screen and looking down, I saw a woman with a peony silk flower in her hair and a gorgeous but not coquettish makeup, holding up her skirt, leading three maids upstairs.
The maids were carrying small boxes decorated with gold and carved patterns, which were probably used to store tools.
The woman kowtowed and then knelt beside the square stool. She took the boxes from the maids and opened them one by one.
In the first box on the left, dozens of egg-sized white porcelain jars are neatly arranged, filled with various basic nail polish.
"This is called Taoyao, made from newly blossomed red peaches, with a gentle color and a refreshing fragrance.
This is called Yingge, with jasmine as the main component, bright and clear in color, giving people a lively feeling..."
Yunniang introduced it in a gentle voice, and the four people's attention was immediately attracted.
