Eoptonment 37: Searching, lonely and miserable 2

"Please get started." Wei Tanyi bowed slightly to the boundless darkness.

The sound of the piano gradually sounded in the silence, not slow, not sad or happy. The person who stroked the piano seemed to be a ruthless person. Even Han Ruqi, who had nothing to do with elegance, couldn't help frown.

"The breeze is leisurely, the bright moon is bright, a wisp of sandalwood smoke, in front of the small window."

Suddenly, I don't know where the woman's song came from. It was also soft and light, not mixed with too many emotions. Fortunately, her voice was pleasant.

Han Ruqi opened his eyes wide and couldn't see anyone, only the song lingered beside him.

"The shadow is swaying, the clouds are floating, and the tears are shallow. Rolling bead curtain, walking alone in the courtyard, candlelight on each side..."

It gradually became clear in front of her eyes, and a woman's figure appeared in the dark. She was dressed in bright red, and even the blindfolded ribbon was dazzlingly red. A long black hair was untouched on her shoulders, reflecting a beautiful luster because of the candlelight. There was a piano in front of her, and the green and white jade fingers brushed the strings... the strings?

Han Ruxu was stunned and quickly rubbed his eyes before looking, but no matter how he looked at it, there were no strings on the piano. The fingers of the woman in red played in the air, making a distant sound.

"What are you kidding..." He couldn't help muttering and then looking at the woman's face.

The Fuqin woman was blindfolded with a red ribbon, and she lowered her head slightly to focus on singing. Her appearance was not real. She only knew that her face was extremely white, as if she had never seen the sun, and her lips were so bright, as if she was as red as blood.

Such a woman says that she is a human, and even a ghost will not believe it!

"...I have complained that the purple is red all over the world; the past is tired, and it suddenly appears; in June, the sideburns are stained with light s; if there is no fate, it should not be seen."

At the end of the song, the woman leaned down and her forehead almost pressed against the piano.

Wei Tanyi also bowed to her: "Madam, thank you for your hard work."

The floating bamboo came forward and put away the stringless piano, and was led out of the door by Si Si. There were only three of them left in the huge room.

"Lord Han, how about this song?" Wei Tanyi asked with a smile.

"Is this a test for me?" Han Ruqi swung his lips, "The lyrics and songs are excellent, but it's a pity that the people are not good, and the charm of the song is bad." This is his true feeling. If the woman in red sings more affectionately, he may feel impeccable.

Wei Tanyi smiled inexplicably and didn't say anything about his answer, but turned to the woman in red: "What do you think, madam?"

The woman in red sighed faintly: "Lord Han... is a person who understands pleasure and also understands love."

Hearing the words, Han Ruqi glanced beside him, and Wei Tanyi really smiled so well without treacherousness.

"Madam, I'm flattered." Although I didn't hear any praise.

"There are some problems with the slave family. I don't know if adults are willing to take the time to give advice?"

Han Ruxu suddenly felt cold on his back and couldn't help taking a step back: "I'm short-sighted, but I'm afraid I can't help my lady."

"The slave family has asked many people, but they have never received a satisfactory answer," the woman in red is still buried her head deeply. "It's not a problem, but so far no one can answer without hesitation."

Seeing that he still wanted to refuse, Wei Tanyi began to beat the drum: "Lord Han can't listen to the song for nothing. Even if your wife doesn't sing well, after all, it's hard work. Even if you don't answer well, it's better than to receive nothing?"

Han Ruqi gritted his teeth - Isn't it you who made me suffer from merit?

But he still answered bravely: "Madam, please."

The woman in red slowly raised her upper body and sat upright. The beautiful outline looked white and bright because of the darkness, like a superior pearl. Han Ru couldn't help thinking, what kind of beauty would she be if she took off the ribbon?

"In this world, are all ruthless people who understand affection?"

Han Ruqi sob and didn't answer the question, "How can I say this, madam?"

The woman in red sighed faintly and whispered, "Is it ruthless because of understanding of affection, being ruthless and more affectionate because of being ruthless, and more affectionate... People involved in the world often have a lot of feelings. In fact, they don't understand feelings. On the contrary, those ruthless and righteous people are the most understanding of the true meaning of love. They are never easily moved. When they give up, they are not stingy. It's a pity."

In the time when Han Ruxu couldn't answer, she turned to Wei Tanyi: "Does Mr. Wei have an answer?"

Wei Tanyi smiled apologetically: "I don't understand love, but I'm a ruthless person. I can't answer my wife's words. He was shocked by the eyes of others when he said this.

"Maybe..." Han Ruxu tried to express his meaning. "People who understand love see too thoroughly, so they are afraid of love, afraid of being worried, afraid of being bound, so they are particularly ruthless."

The woman in red smiled and asked, "Is Lord Han the fearful person in his mouth?"

This time, Han Ruxu was unwilling to answer: "What kind of person has nothing to do with your wife?"

"Ha ha, it doesn't matter. You might as well think about it carefully."

At first hearing the laughter, it was simply creepy. Han Ruqi couldn't help roaring at Wei Tanyi: "Why do you always stuff these inexplicable women to me!"

Wei Tanyi was stunned by his sudden trouble and smiled: "Ah? Lord Han, don't speak so badly. I'm not a madam in a brothel. I'll give it to you. What can I do?

Han Ruqi was still going to attack, and the woman in red stood up: "That's all... I'm afraid no one can answer this question. Thank you, Lord Han." With that, he pulled off the blindfolded ribbon with one hand, and Han Ruxu, who looked sideways, instantly froze as if he had been struck by lightning, and then fell down unconsciously.

Seeing this, Wei Tanyi pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly: "Can't he do it?"

"Please ask Mr. Wei to find someone else."

The candle went out, and the figure of the woman in red disappeared.

"Miss, the young master came to see you," the little maid in the green dress pushed the door in with a smile, holding a jewelry box in her hand, and briskly went to the woman sitting on the embroidery stool in front of the mirror. "Look, what a beautiful hairpin."

The woman in front of the mirror platform poked her with her fingers anxiously: "What's wrong? It's not serious." He quickly got up to greet the young man who came in.

The man who was called the eldest young master by the maidservant was straight, with a straight face, and his tone showed his connotation: "Is Miss Xia rest well? The servants in the house are well served, but if there is anything missing, I will ask someone to prepare it.

The woman surnamed Xia hurriedly shook her head: "I'm flattered that I can stay in your house temporarily. Everyone treats me very well. I don't lack anything, really!"

The man nodded slightly and his eyes did not leave her: "It's good. The humble house is simple. My father is afraid of neglecting the girl. If there is anything wrong, please forgive Miss Xia."

The woman surnamed Xia shook her head gratefully: "It really can't be better. Don't say that, young master!"

They were polite here, but the maid who made tea next to them laughed and asked jokingly, "Young master, are you here to ask for your wife, or do you really come to see my young lady?"

"Floating bamboo, don't talk nonsense!" The woman surnamed Xia blushed and raised her eyebrows.

The man still smiled modestly: "It doesn't matter, Miss Fuzhu is straightforward, and my mother also likes her very much. Since you lived in the prime minister's mansion, everyone has a smile on their faces, which is all thanks to the floating bamboo girl.

The woman surnamed Xia smiled and said no, and the maid blinked mischievously and quickly left the room.

As soon as she left, the man took the hand of the woman surnamed Xia, who was about to call her back.
