Stage [Republic of China]

Ruo Yousi! "

A few cleanup customers next to them all held the ground and laughed.Shui Jiu had no choice but to smile too, her water chestnut lips trembled slightly, and they bloomed in the morning light like flowers.

"Miss An is really a very beautiful woman." A Qing guest sitting on the lower left tilted his thumb, tilted his head and said to Master Zeng, "Master, why don't you take her into the room?"

Master Zeng pondered for a while, looking at Shui Jiu, it seemed that he had some pleasant intentions. "I have this plan, but the old man is getting old..."

"Hey, my lord is an official of the fourth grade in Beijing, a mere singing girl, so what if I begged her?" The Qing guests didn't think so.

These words did not shy away from Shui Jiu at all, even if it was such a contemptuous tone, these Qing customers seemed to think that Shui Jiu was acceptable.

Shui Jiu pointed her toes towards the flower hall, her eyelids drooping.

"Miss An, what do you mean?" Master Zeng really couldn't help persuading him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he twirled his goatee and asked him with a smile.

What do you mean?Could he still say "no"?Shui Jiu smiled self-deprecatingly, and said in a soft voice, "Everything is according to the master's orders."

- "That's it!"

- "Hey, that's what you call flattery."

- "Miss An really understands adults' hearts best."

All the guests talked one after another.Master Zeng stood out among the cheering guests, he only smiled and twirled his goatee, without saying a word.

Shui Jiu was actually very annoyed, but right now he had to pretend to be a small step.He lazily followed the crowd out of the flower hall, moved to the dining table in small steps, and his high-heeled shoes hit the ground with a crisp, snapping sound.

A Qing guest stared at Shui Jiu's unbound feet, feeling a little disgusted, and said, "I'm afraid I have to discipline him when I come to the master's house."

Master Zeng followed Qing Ke's gaze, and turned his gaze to Shui Jiu's feet in snow-white high-heeled shoes, stared at them for less than three seconds, and then smiled slightly while twirling his goatee. "You guys don't understand. It is this trendy woman who is interesting!"

"Master is indeed an elegant man." The Qing guests once again roared with laughter.

Shui Jiu became more and more irritable, but everyone at the dining table had tactfully cleared both sides of Master Zeng, and if he wanted to eat this breakfast, he could only sit next to Master Zeng.Shui Jiu turned sideways, buttocks just sat on the pear blossom high stool, Master Zeng greeted immediately, "Come, try the steamed buns made by the cooks at my husband's house."

The so-called steamer buns are filled with boiling hot soup, as long as you take a small sip and suck it dry, only the meat filling is left.There are so many people, but there are only twelve small steamed buns on the table.When Master Zeng greeted him, others didn't dare to move their chopsticks, but Shui Jiu didn't really like it, so he put the first steamer bag into the bowl and pursed his lips reluctantly.He was born with a pair of very small water chestnut lips. With this mouth, others can squeeze three or four buns, but for Yu Shuijiu, it is barely enough to squeeze half a bun.He had just sucked some soup, half of the bun was still in his mouth, when he heard the Qing Ke who said he would discipline him just now clapped his hands and laughed.

"Oh, this is really a natural beauty. Miss An's cherry lips, I'm afraid she won't be able to eat a bun."

Shui Jiu was holding a bun in his mouth, so of course he couldn't refute, and Master Zeng didn't speak for him, so the half of the bun was stuck in his lips, unable to swallow or spit it out.

I just feel very sick.

◎"Just know how to coax me"◎

After having breakfast, Master Zeng seemed to want to appease Shui Jiu, and openly said in front of a few cleanup guests, "You guys help the old man to see a good day."

"Master, do you really want to take a concubine?" Qing Ke asked tentatively.

"Well, choose a good day to hold a banquet, and invite relatives to have a drink. This banquet is always inevitable." Master Zeng nodded slightly, and glanced at Shui Jiu from the corner of his eyes, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally.

Shui Jiu knew that Master Zeng was flattering him.Although he didn't care about the identity of a half-old bad old man's concubine at all, and he couldn't consummate the house with this bad old man, he still smiled politely and distantly, took the handkerchief next to him to wipe the corners of his lips, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Master Zeng, for your love."

This is in response to the meaning of being a concubine for Master Zeng. Master Zeng once again raised his hand and twisted his goatee, and the wrinkles in the corners of his eyes were reborn.

Shui Jiu lived in Zeng Zhai's residence for half a month.Fortunately, those Qingkes were really superstitious and checked the almanac, and said that the past two or three months have not been a good day, and it is very inappropriate to make an alliance with Na Cai, so Master Zeng didn't really want him to do anything, but just drank tea in leisure time, Or occasionally when the mood comes to paint, I want him to serve the pen and ink by the side.Shui Jiu held the inkstone next to Master Zeng, and Master Zeng seemed to be able to flourish in poetry.With a swipe of the pen, I wrote ten characters—like a dream, like a moon, like a flower.

Raising his hand, he generously sent the scale to Shui Jiu.

Shui Jiu was slightly startled, raised her eyelids and looked at Master Zeng, without saying a word.

Master Zeng laughed and said, "Miss An is so quiet, it really is like a dream, like a moon, like a flower. I only hate that the old man is getting old. I'm afraid that in the future... I won't be quite as Miss An wants. For the rest of my life, I will still Miss Wang An, take care of me."

As he said that, Master Zeng, who was born as a Beijing official and had a very corrupt style, actually cupped his hands in the water, and there was a seriousness in his eyes.

Shui Jiu was taken aback, quickly lowered her eyes, turned her body sideways to avoid Master Zeng's courtesy, and said modestly, "I'm just a singing girl, how can I afford such a great gift from Master Zeng?"

"How can this be called a big gift?" Master Zeng cupped his hands, straightened his body, and laughed again, twisting his goatee. "Although Paramount is a place for pleasure-seeking, the first time I saw you, I knew you were a good girl from an innocent family. Nacai's alliance also means that I want to live a happy life with you in the future."

Shui Jiu was silent.He lived in the mansion for less than half a month, and in this less than half a month, he has heard more or less about the past of this Master Zeng.It is said that Master Zeng used to have a good wife, but for some reason the year before last, a fire in his hometown burned Master Zeng's wife, children and old mother to death. Today, Master Zeng is really a loner, without even a caring servant by his side.Most of the maids were newly bought in Jibei City, and they couldn't do what Master Zeng wanted.

Master Zeng brought him home at Paramount that night, and decided to take him as a concubine. It seemed to be a whim, but in fact, in the eyes of Master Zeng, it had been planned for a long time.

"Miss An," Master Zeng had already leaned forward at some point, holding Shui Jiu vigorously with his hand covered with age spots, and the sound of his breathing still faintly smelled of the garlic he had just eaten at noon. "The old man is willing to treat you sincerely. As long as you have no other thoughts, you will always have a mouthful of food in my Zeng's house in the future."

Shui Jiu couldn't avoid it, so she lowered her eyes and pretended to be shy, and responded softly like a mosquito. "……Um."

Master Zeng became even more excited, he moved closer to Shui Jiu's face, his shadow was suppressed, his breathing was heavy, as if something was about to happen.

But nothing happened.

This Master Zeng is about the same height as Shui Jiu, and Shui Jiu no longer wore the pair of snow-white high-heeled shoes that made his feet hurt after living in Zeng Zhai, but changed to embroidered shoes with lotus flowers and mandarin ducks playing in the water.His feet don't look big among men, but ordinary women definitely don't have such big feet, so the maids discussed in private, and they all said that Master Zeng's favorite beauty is as slender as a vase , the face is also beautiful, but it is a pity that she gave birth to a pair of big feet.

Shui Jiu knows all these gossips, but just ignores them.

Master Zeng is a person who only cares about his face and figure.At this time, he leaned forward, breathed out, sprayed a pungent garlic smell, and comforted Shui Jiu, "Don't worry, if you really can have a boy and a girl with me, not only my Zeng family will Taking care of you, even the children, will take care of you in the future."

Master Zeng is 54 years old this year, Shui Jiu is only seventeen or eighteen, and the reported age is sixteen.According to the age and seniority between Mr. Zeng and him, he can probably be his grandfather. Therefore, Mr. Zeng said this sentence with a little lack of confidence. It is to go to those low-level businesses, but if you like anything, just tell me."

"Master Zeng," Shui Jiu raised his eyelids, seeing Master Zeng staring at him bemusedly, his old smile actually contained a bit of flattery, and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. "Master's words are serious."

Shui Jiu tentatively pulled his hand out of Master Zeng's big hand, but Master Zeng chased after him closely and held it firmly again.

"If you have anything else you want, just say it. In the middle of next month, we will go to the old mansion in Jingxi. First, the city in northern Hebei is in chaos now; second, it's time for the old man to go back to his hometown." Rest for a period of time. You and I will go together, and this ceremony of acceptance should be done in the ancestral house in Jingxi."

Being able to resettle him back to his ancestral house and invite all the local gentry and celebrities to participate in this matter, Master Zeng really wanted to take it seriously in his own way.Shui Jiu knew it all in his heart, but he couldn't be moved at all.

The smell of garlic in this Master Zeng's mouth is really stink!

The corners of Shui Jiu's mouth twitched slightly again, but he couldn't pull out his hand, so he could only tilt his body to the maximum angle, and said calmly, "Everything is just as arranged by the master."

"Hey! The old man knows that you are really a good girl." Master Zeng laughed loudly, and slapped the back of Shui Jiu's hand vigorously, until the back of Shui Jiu's hand, which was as cold as a porcelain doll, turned pink, and then suddenly said in shock, " Oops, but I forgot, you are so delicate and tender, you can't stand rubbing vigorously."

When it comes to "rubbing rubbing", Master Zeng has a serious expression on his face.

"Master," Shui Jiu couldn't stand his old-fashioned appearance, couldn't help frowning,
