Lin Shu shook her head. Before she could even finish refusing, Lin Hui had already pulled her arm and said: ”Good Sister Shu, let's go. It's a rare day for you, why don't we go out and play? I know Fifth Aunt is still inside Fanghua Garden, waiting for you to go back and eat dinner. I promise, I'll leave after sitting for a while, and you'll definitely be able to make it back in time for dinner. ”
Her attitude was simply too sincere.
Furthermore, ever since she was engaged to be married, she had been depressed all this time. Lin Shu could only nod her head and say, ”Alright, then we will go listen to a play and leave.” After finishing her words, she then instructed the carriage driver to turn around and head to the Liucheng Garden.
Because of Yuan Xiaoyi, Liucheng Garden had already become the biggest troupe in the capital.
Lin Shu only ordered the coachman to find the best private room, and then she and Lin Hui went to the other room.
Now, Yuan Xiaoyi's show had not started yet, it was just another actor waving his sleeves and singing ”Legend of Red Bean”, his voice was pitiful, but the people below the stage could not muster up any interest.
Lin Hui also felt that it was boring and could only concentrate on eating the sunflower seeds. She could not help but say, ”... When I look at this man, he looks quite similar to Yuan Xiaoyi, and dressed in this outfit, feels that everyone is the same, I can only differentiate between a man and a woman, how can they tell Yuan Xiaoyi apart? And you still say Yuan Xiaoyi can make the people in the play live? ”
”I can't see it either, I'm afraid there's a way …” Those madams have nothing to do in the house all day, they could just rely on these things to pass the time. If you wait for a few years, you might fall for Yuan Xiaoyi too. ” Although Lin Shu did not like the clamor, hearing the clamor from downstairs, she felt at ease, and her mood inexplicably improved greatly.
Lin Hui pursed her lips, ”Of course not, if I'm bored in the future, I'll just come and play with you.”
As she said that, she felt a sense of novelty. Leaning on the railings, she looked down, but Lin Shu was leaning on the armchair, looking around, suddenly she felt as if she saw a familiar figure. Wasn't this person Mr. Bai?
Mr. Bai was still dressed in green and gray clothes, with a white beard and white hair.
Lin Shu originally thought that she would see Lu Jingran again, but when she thought about it, no, this time Lu Jingran was inside Third Prince's Mansion drinking with the Third Prince and the others, why would he be here?
Lin Shu could not help but stand up and watch as Mr. Bai entered the room.
Not long after, a middle-aged woman dressed in luxurious clothing also entered the room, but before Lin Shu could even see the person's appearance clearly, that person rushed into the room.
This time, Lin Shu had no choice but to worry, she only called the waiter over, and pointed to the room: I heard that there will be a play with Yuan Xiaoyi, I feel that the position of this room is not too good, I feel that the room is not too bad, can I trouble you to help me change to the other room, the silver is something we can discuss.
”This …” The waiter revealed a troubled expression, ”You should know that the location of our Liucheng Garden cannot be decided with silver, and the location of the other rooms are the best. This little one cannot afford to offend this person.”
Today, when Lin Shu and Lin Hui came out, they naturally did not bring out their Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, but just their actions and attire alone was enough for the waiter to know that they could not afford to offend them.
However, Lin Shu was unwilling to let it go, ”Coming out to listen to the show is naturally to listen to the show, I believe that the esteemed person will frequently take over the room, it is rare for us two to come out, second brother can discuss with that person, and see if we can change for a bit …”
After Lin Hui heard this, she also joined in the fun, ”That's right, I still feel that this position is not too good. Waiter, you should discuss it with that person.”
As she spoke, she ordered Xiang Zi to take out ten taels of silver.
Oh, so she blamed her bad position for not understanding the play.
The waiter didn't even dare to accept the silver anymore and retreated in fright, ”You …” ”Don't make things difficult for me. Not to mention 10 taels of silver, even the small ones don't have the guts to go over.”
Is there anyone in this world who doesn't like silver? Let alone in a place like Liucheng Garden, those waiter would run as fast as anyone the moment they saw the silver.
Lin Shu felt that something was amiss, ”Why is second brother afraid of coming forward?”
The waiter glanced around before lowering his voice and said, ”There's a rich person in that room …” ”Even if you were to pay me a hundred silver taels, I would never dare to enter even if you were to pay me a hundred silver taels.”
”Heh, so you're a noble now? ”I just saw an old man going in, and then a middle-aged woman went in. Could it be that there's something fishy going on?” Lin Shu probed her step by step. She felt that something was wrong with this matter, if Mr. Bai and the middle-aged woman really had an ending, they would definitely meet face to face, so why would they hide like this?
The waiter scratched his head. They were servants and errands runners, so they couldn't say a single word. ”About that …” This little one doesn't know. ”
Lin Shu did not make things difficult for him, she rewarded him with 10 silver and told him to go down.
