Chapter 80: Extremely Popular (1)
Inside the room, it was quiet.
The guards stepped aside, stood with their heads down, all restrained their breath and listened with their ears erect.
After a while, a clear and slightly cool female voice said: "Peaches burn on the embankment of Jinjiang River."
The parallelism is neat and the artistic conception is exquisite, just like the five elements couplet!
Nangong Yi's eyes paused slightly, and then a touch of surprise appeared. He picked up the fragrant tea on the incense table, opened his thin lips and uttered a word.
"Tea."
What do you mean? Ask her to drink tea?
But she had just smashed the teacup, where could she get tea to drink? Where was the plucking stick, and her face looked ugly.
The man didn't look at her face, lowered his head and took a sip, and continued: "Fragrant leaves, tender buds."
Oh, so that's it! She breathed a sigh of relief and her face eased.
Thanks to her usual exchanges with the poets in the poetry group, otherwise, she would really be fooled by this man's mindless words.
"I admire poets and love monks." She answered fluently.
Nangong Yi's lips were more gentle. He put down the teacup, looked at her for a while, and spoke again: "Carved white jade, woven black gauze."
As soon as the voice fell, Caiwei took the next sentence without thinking: "The flower stamens are simmered in the pot, and the flowers are graceful and winding."
Nangong Yi's smile became stronger. After a moment of silence, he said: "Invite you to accompany the bright moon at night, and order you to face the morning glow before dawn."
Caiwei thought for a moment and said: "Wash away the tirelessness of ancient and modern people, how can you boast after getting drunk."
"Haha, wonderful!"
Nangong Yi couldn't help but clap his hands, The handsome face showed sincere admiration: "I didn't expect Miss Wei'er to have such talent. I was obsessed."
Although Caiwei was singing and dancing in her heart, she looked calm: "Since I have matched your couplet, are you willing to keep your promise and let me go?"
Nangong Yi nodded and smiled meaningfully: "Of course, I always keep my promises. I will definitely do what I promised!"
...
After leaving Xinglong Inn, Caiwei walked fast like a bird out of a cage. It is true that knowledge changes destiny. I thought there would be a big fight today and bloodbathed Xinglong Inn, but I didn't expect that it would be peaceful in the end because of a few poems!
Because there was no blood on her hands, Caiwei was in a particularly good mood. After seeing a familiar man, she took the initiative to greet him.
The man who was greeted was surnamed Xie, and his given name was Ziyuan. He was a pawnbroker in the town, and was known as Xie Zhongren. He had been doing pawnbroker business in the town for decades and was quite famous. Most of the purchases of houses and lands and the sale of people by wealthy families were done through him. The house that Caiwei bought when she set up the nursing home last time was bought through his introduction.
"Oh, Miss Mu, what a coincidence!" Xie Zhongren was polite while looking at Caiwei.
This little girl has become more and more beautiful after not seeing her for a few days. When we met last time, she was still a starving person with a pale face and skinny body. In a few days, she has become tender and tender, as if she could squeeze out water. It's really strange!
Caiwei was still discussing buying a person with her mother last night, and coincidentally met Xie Zhongren today, so she told him about her idea of buying a person.
When Xie Zhongren heard that Caiwei wanted to buy five or six people, he was immediately delighted. His job was equivalent to a modern intermediary, with both sides taking commissions. The larger the transaction amount, the more he could take.
"Don't worry, young lady. I will go back and pick people. I will definitely pick some quick and reliable ones. I will personally bring them to your house to show you. I guarantee you will be satisfied." Xie Zhongren was beaming with joy and spoke eloquently, fully demonstrating his professional expertise as an intermediary.
