C28 Qilan Family!
As the night fell, the Xincheng River boarded the boat leisurely. The distant Lichi Lake was bustling with splendor, but the boat here was leisurely and relaxed. The boat slowly moved forward, the waves on the boat rippling gently, creating beautiful golden ripples like the scales of a fish.
"Under the southern hill of the seed bean, the grass grows bean sprout. In the morning, he would return with a hoe. "If only the grass and trees were long enough, the dew would be on my clothes …"
On the boat, the elegant and ethereal singing, melodious singing, the boat waves, a good idyllic mood.
"Elder sister, if we continue singing, we won't need to go to the" Rain Pavilion "today." Elder sister, if we continue singing, we won't need to go to the "Rain Listening Pavilion" today.
Inside the cabin, he heard the sound of a little girl complaining.
The cabin wasn't large, but it was very neat and tidy inside, spotless, with a marble countertop in the middle, and a guqin on the table. Behind the guqin was a girl with a face like an apricot, a fresh face, and two dimples.
Her delicate hand that was as tender as spring onion pressed against the zither strings, and the singing abruptly came to a halt.
"Die'er disturbed my state of mind, that Chen Changwen is a businessman, yet he has to pretend to be a normal person. This is truly vulgar, even if I asked him to wait until daybreak, what's wrong with it?" the girl said.
A little head popped out from the other side of the cabin, the little girl's face was full of passion, she blinked her eyes at the girl: "I know, if it was that Young Master Chen Gui, I would have flown over with wings already!"
After the little girl finished speaking, she giggled, "How could the famous Qi Lan and her family be comparable to those mediocre and ordinary powders? Chen Changwen only has a few silver coins, how can it enter everyone's eyes? "
"Pfft!" The girl suddenly spat and said, "Hurry up! Otherwise, let Mother Tian take care of you!"
Die'er stuck out her tongue and said: "I was right. However, it is said that the author of Journey to the West is an esteemed guest invited by Chen Changwen. These days, Big Sister has been hugging Journey to the West everyday and didn't let go.
The girl shook her head and said, "The book 'Journey to the West' may seem ridiculous and bizarre, but it actually contains a lot of wisdom and emotions. The girl shook her head and said," The book 'Journey to the West' may seem absurd and bizarre. I, a myrtle girl, how could I fall in love with an old man at first sight? "
"Aiyee!" Sister is so vulgar! He was the number one student after all these words. It turned out he also wanted to see how the bag looked like! Like I said, that Chen Gui is just a beginner, he has such an extraordinary physique. I like him, so it turns out that he also likes that stinky physique. " Die'er giggled.
"Pfft!" Little girl, you're still talking about me? At such a young age, you're already thinking of spring. Has that handsome young master on the new river embankment come today? Did you leave that basin of foot washing water of yours for nothing? " Kiran did not want to be outdone, so she retorted.
Die'er chuckled, and said without the slightest bit of anger, "That charming young master wants to drink sister's foot washing water! I am only thinking for your elder sister, that Chen Gui is not a good wife, if elder sister uses her feelings too deeply, I am afraid that she will hurt me.
I am not looking for other talents for my sister, and I don't know the surname of that guy either. Otherwise, I would definitely be able to help my sister create a good story about a talented person! "
"Pui!" Pui! Pui! Do you really think I am that wooden head that sees nothing? I can see that young master, he's only 14 or 15 years old, I think he hasn't even completed his studies yet! Qi Lan shouted.
"Giggle!" Die'er laughed complacently, the frequency of her movements increased, the two sisters had caused so much trouble, and unknowingly, the boat had already entered the Lichi Lake.
On the surface of the lake, the pleasure boat was intertwined. Die'er and Qi Lan were both silent.
The most important thing for them to take the boat was to deceive people. Otherwise, if the whole city knew that the famous Qi Lan and her people would take the boat here from Xincheng River, then Xincheng River would probably be filled with fishing boats tonight.
Although Die'er was young, she was extremely proficient in handling boats. She shuttled back and forth across the pleasure boat, and before long, she arrived at the "Rain Listening Pavilion".
… ….
"Everyone Qi Lan has arrived!"
Just as Lu Zheng was having tea with Chen Changwen, he suddenly heard a little girl call out to him.
Chen Changwen suddenly stood up with an ecstatic expression on his face. He picked up his fan and unexpectedly did not greet Lu Zheng and walked out of the private room.
It was a little noisy outside. When the people on the cruise liner heard of Qi Lan's name, they all jeered, whistled, and yelled, reminding Lu Zheng of another world's Starseeker clan.
About half an hour later, the room's door was finally opened once more. A faint fragrance drifted over, and Lu Zheng finally saw a girl in a green robe. She had a slim body, simple clothing, and an air of elegance.
"Err …"
Lu Zheng stood up just in time to see the girl raise her head. Their gazes met and Lu Zheng was stupefied.
Isn't this girl the spicy girl who was standing on the Xincheng River's Great Wall? She … Was she the famous Kiran Family? One of the four Courtesans of Yangzhou?
Initially, he had been looking forward to it, because Chen Changwen had an uneasy feeling the entire time. He really wanted to see what was so special about a woman that could make an old cunning guy like Chen Changwen, who would cause old drivers to care, like.
He never expected that...
"Ha, why did you come all the way here? Alright, I was right about that. Have you gotten addicted to drinking your sister's foot washing water? " She stared at Lu Zheng, sizing him up.
Lu Zheng was rendered speechless. He shook his head slightly and asked, "Is Miss the guest that Boss Chen invited?"
"Yes, why, you. Aiyo. You. You can't be a guest outside of Steward Chen, right? Could it be that 'Journey to the West' was written by you? " The girl seemed to have seen the funniest joke in the world. She laughed so hard that her waist bent down.
"Cough, cough!" Two coughs sounded from outside.
The girl was startled, then stopped laughing. Chen Changwen's voice sounded, "Qi Lan, everyone, please enter first!"
Lu Zheng looked towards the door and saw a lady from a pavilion walking slowly in.
Seeing this girl, Lu Zheng's eyes shone, "So she's the one from the Qilan Family. Hmm, at least she didn't disappoint me!" He actually felt a sense of relief.
Qi Lan's gaze landed on Lu Zheng, her face also revealing a look of shock. The green-clothed girl beside her chuckled and said, "Elder sister, the person invited outside Chen Yuan is a great scholar! Take a look, this young master is extremely talented and has an elegant demeanor. How could he possibly be someone who has experienced all sorts of hardships? "
Qi Lan glared at the green-robed girl. Her charming face turned slightly red, and she was even more shocked in her heart.
"'Journey to the West' was written by such a young man?" Qi Lan was in a trance, her mind filled with doubts.
Usually, refined guests would come up to confront the women on the pleasure boat to recite poems or play zither and tea. Even if they were to drink wine, they would need to have a wine order and speak about elegance everywhere. However, Chen Changwen's actions made Lu Zheng feel that it was like having three companions.
This feeling reminded Lu Zheng of a nightclub from another world. Most of the time, he would find a few girls to accompany him in drinking and guessing martial arts to please his clients.
Chen Changwen obviously wanted to use this tactic as well. Lu Zheng was young, first bro, and Chen Changwen had specially invited the number one courtesan in Yangzhou to accompany him.
As long as he could charm Lu Zheng, the later manuscript of Journey to the West would be easy to capture.
It was just that he had never thought that Lu Zheng would be more experienced than him in dealing with such an occasion. Furthermore, Chen Changwen's mistake was that he should not have invited a top tier courtesan like Qi Lan to such an occasion.
To be able to become a top courtesan in Yangzhou, besides her unparalleled appearance, what was more important was her talent and talent.
The Courtesan Belle selection was similar to the beauty contest a thousand years from now. A woman who could be called a courtesan, how could her taste and temperament be comparable to those mediocre, ordinary fans of the secular world? Chen Changwen had used the method of calling young miss at the nightclub on an A-list celebrity. One could imagine how strange and awkward it was.
It was a good thing that Qi Lan's skills were high, and she was also extremely well-versed in handling other people's objects. Otherwise, the banquet today would have definitely exploded.
Seeing such a situation, Lu Zheng could be considered to have gotten a good grasp of Chen Changwen's background.
's appearance was indeed much better than Gu Zhilun's, but his true character was far different. Gu Zhilun was truly a merchant who was close to the Gu family.
As he thought of this, Lu Zheng could not help but sigh with emotion. Since ancient times, the advancement of society had changed everything except human nature. For a business person like Chen Changwen, no matter how much he wrapped things up and tried to conceal himself, it would never be able to hide his original personality.
Gu Zhilun was an extremely shrewd person, moreover, his background was very complicated. When facing Gu Zhilun, Lu Zheng needed to be very careful, but against Chen Changwen, Lu Zheng could easily deal with him.
His mood was relaxed, and he relaxed. He drank with Chen Changwen happily.
At the side, Kiran wore a smile on her face, her expression reserved. She had been scrutinizing Lu Zheng the entire time, and gradually, she was disappointed with the young man in front of her.
Xiao Die stood behind Qi Lan and helped her pour the wine. It was very easy for the sisters to communicate with each other.
"Xiao Die, your eyes are not good! "If you really have such a husband, I'm afraid you will be utterly disappointed. You will regret it for the rest of your life!" Qi Lan giggled.
Xiao Die gritted her teeth, "I have never thought about finding my husband. But he looks like a dog, so he is such a scum. I want him to drink my sister's foot wash. Now I see he is not even worthy to drink my sister's foot wash!"
