Song of Wood
Chapter 8
Chen Shichang didn't feel bad about being scolded. She even smiled and said to her, "Sister, I'm just checking for you ~ (Ì„?
Ì„ ~) ~ "
"If Prince Wang wants to do something bad to you, I can send a message."
Flowering Hour: "That's a good reason."
Oh no, Flowering Hour was sneering. Every time Chen Shichang saw Flowering Hour sneering, she felt goosebumps all over her body.
~ ~ ~ ~ Self-Made Memories Dividing Line ~ ~ ~
The last time Chen Shichang saw Flowering Hour sneering was a month ago.
When Chen Shichang first came here, she always wanted to go back. She hadn't adjusted her mentality to be ready to welcome the world. She was lazy about everything.
She deliberately played the pipa wrong several times. The Courtesan sneered and said, "It just so happens that a distinguished guest is here to drink today. I'm not feeling well. Come and give me a hand."
Saying "not feeling well" in this kind of place usually meant that she was on her period and couldn't do anything.
"Come and give me a hand" meant that if the distinguished guest needed three escorts, Chen Shichang would do it.
The Courtesan had the right to ask a little singer to do this for her. Chen Shichang was so scared that her face turned ashen.
That day, Flowering Hour took her to receive a distinguished guest. Obviously, the distinguished guest didn't pay attention to her at all and was drinking alone, but Chen Shichang was still ordered around.
For some reason, Flowering Hour sat far away from the distinguished guest coldly. Separated by a hollowed-out screen, she let the distinguished guest drink alone.
"Mu Ji, go to the cellar and get two jars of aged Zhuangyuan Hong."
When receiving guests outside, sometimes the Courtesan would directly call Chen Shichang by her stage name "Mu Ji" instead of her nickname "Xiao Mu."
Thus, Artisan Chen ran to the entrance of the wine cellar and called for the old man at the door to bring her some wine.
The old man asked, "I'll send Miss Mu Ji up. Which room is she in?"
Chen Shichang picked up the two jars with one hand and said, "Father-in-law, you don't have to trouble yourself. I'm fine by myself."
After saying that, Chen Shichang ran back.
In just the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Chen Shichang picked up the two jars with one hand and placed them on the small round table in front of the Courtesan.
Because she ran a bit, she was a little.
Chen Shichang directly wiped it with her sleeve.
The Courtesan said, "You run so fast, where's your manners?
Where's your manners?
Where did you lose the things I taught you two days ago?
How careless.. "
Chen Shichang still had a bit of a modern person's rebellious spirit and said, "I'm just trying to shorten the time you have to wait. I'll help you send them to the guests."
At that time, Chen Shichang was still very naive and didn't know what might happen if she sent them to the guests. The Courtesan hurriedly sent her away and said, "Mu Ji, go to my room and bring my pipa over."
"Okay."
Chen Shichang responded and hurriedly ran out.
The Courtesan said weakly from behind, "Remember your manners, maintain your manners."
When Chen Shichang ran back with her pipa, the two jars of wine that were originally placed on the Courtesan's table were not in the same place. Presumably, the guests were still drinking.
Chen Shichang was very strange at that time. The guests didn't ask the Courtesan to play or sing, but the Courtesan began to play the pipa by herself.
The tune of the pipa was quite similar to Su Shi's Shuidiao Song. Chen Shichang almost wanted to ask her if she also transmigrated.
The Courtesan just repeated the tune over and over again.
