Chapter Five Hundred and Fortieth Chapter 38
"Miss hasn't come some days, so why not try the new special dishes launched this month." The shopkeeper suggested with a smile.
"Okay!" Yaya had no objection. She was not as fond of meat as Zhuoer, nor was she as picky as Jun'er.
When the dishes were served, Yaya sat in the private room without being obedient. She came out and stood by the railing, listening to the singing sisters singing the song. After listening for a while, Yaya frowned, "It's quite melodious to listen to the tune, but why can't I understand the lyrics she sang?"
The sisters who are singing came from the south and sang "Purple Bamboo Tune" there. Yaya has never been to the south since she was born, so of course she doesn't understand it.
After singing "Purple Bamboo Tune", the sisters sang "Lotus Picking Song". Although Yaya couldn't understand the lyrics, the tune was sweet and soft. In the hazy, it seemed that she saw a graceful woman in Jiangnan, shaking a small boat in the clear river water, and arrived gracefully.
After listening to two small songs, the dishes were delivered. Yaya went into the private room for dinner. She was really hungry. But halfway through the meal, she heard a quarrel outside. Yaya swallowed the slices of meat in her mouth and asked, "Go and see what's going on?" Xihua Pavilion was backed by Duke Anguo's Mansion, and no one dared to come to Xihua Pavilion to cause trouble. Who is so bold today?
The guard went out to ask about the situation, and after the meeting, he came up and said, "It was the two singing girls who quarreled with Guo Nin, the third son of Wuding Bo Mansion."
"Has Guo Ni teased them?" Yaya frowned. This Guo Ni was so terrifying.
"Is this there?" the guard replied.
"Then what are they quarrels?" Yaya asked.
The guard showed hesitation, "This matter is too dirty, I'm afraid that the lady's ears will be dirty."
"My mother said that when I grew up, I should let me know some secret matters so that I won't know how to suffer. Tell me what it is, tell me quickly, may you want me to go out and inquire again?" Yaya urged.
The guard dared to bother the lady to inquire again and said honestly: "The sister who was singing was the wife Guo Ni married in the south. The two had been married for three months, and Guo Ni returned to Beijing and never returned. The woman had been waiting for him in her hometown. After waiting for more than two years, she had not waited for it. The fire broke out in her parents' home, her family business was burned out, and her parents died of illness. The two girls could not support the door, and she also cared about Guo Ni, so she took her sister to Beijing to find someone. After searching in Beijing for half a month, she couldn't find anyone, and she could only make a living by singing. However, she didn't expect to meet her in Xihua Pavilion and shouted on the spot."
"But Guo Nin doesn't want to recognize her?" Yaya asked.
"Miss, have you forgotten that Mr. Guo San got married last winter?" the maid interrupted and reminded.
"Ah! Then did he stop his wife from marrying again like this? It seems that he will have to be 100 sticks and fined 300 silver." Yaya saw Jun'er read the "Law" while reading it while he was idle, but he didn't remember it very clearly.
"I'm afraid the law cannot rule him." The guard smiled bitterly. Guo Nin got married with the singing girl. Regardless of whether the Guo family knew about it before, the Guo family would not admit it at this time, and would even slander them as a matchless person. The singing girl was afraid that she would not be able to fall in love.
"The prince violated the law and was the same as the common people. Although Guo Nien was the son of the eldest princess, he could not be above the law." Yaya was still young and had too little experience.
The guard opened his mouth and stopped talking.
"Speak straight and don't hesitate." Yaya said.
The guard thought for a while and said, "Miss, the youngest has an aunt, whose situation is similar to this singing girl. She was cheated of marriage. After she found out, my aunt went to the man to argue. She had no trace of her again when she went there. A year later, she realized that she was buried alive by the family."
"Guard Zhou, why are you doing this to scare the lady?" One of the maids said.
"I'm not that timid." Yaya waved her hand, "Magist Zhou, what you mean is that Guo Niang will take the life of a singing girl."
"Miss, Guo Nien has to hide his ugly things. It is the most likely that he will get rid of the singer and die without evidence. Miss, the young man was unable to save his aunt back then, but today he encountered a similar situation, and the young man couldn't bear it. This singer is a pitiful person, and the young man wanted to ask the lady to save her." Zhou Guard begged.
The other guard looked at him in surprise, but he didn't realize that the man had a compassionate heart.
"Grandmother said that saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Then hurry up and hold people away, don't let Guo Ni, who is unethical, take people away." Yaya was quite decisive in doing things.
"Thank you, Miss." Guard Zhou went out immediately, afraid that Guo Ni would take the person away if he was too late, which would be a waste of his thoughts.
The maid said, "Miss, it is related to the third son of Wuding Bo Mansion, you..."
"I am still the eldest lady of Duke Anguo's Mansion." Yaya interrupted her.
The lady has a good idea, but the maid dares not talk anymore.
Another guard followed him out, "Xiao Zhou, why didn't I know that your aunt was cheated of marriage?"
"You don't know what's strange about my private affairs." Zhou Wei said calmly.
"Okay, even if this is true, what do you want to do if you instigate the lady to interfere in this matter?" the guard asked in a deep voice.
"I have my own intentions in doing things." Guard Zhou said as he went downstairs.
"Okay, it's my troublesome." The guard turned around in anger and returned to the private room.
When Guard Zhou arrived at the hall, the two sides were still fighting. The sister who was singing was smarter than her sister. She realized that Guo Ni was not someone to rely on, and saw that Guo Ni was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and she was also a prince of the Bo Mansion. She understood the reason why the people did not compete with the officials, so she pulled her sister and refused to leave Guo Ni easily.
"Mr. Guo San, are you trying to force a good woman in the street?" Zhou Wei asked.
"Who are you? You dare to come and take care of me more." Guo Niang looked arrogant.
"Mr. Guo San, if you make a fuss on the street, it has nothing to do with me, but this is Xihua Pavilion. I think you know who the owner of Xihua Pavilion is. These two singing women are singing in Xihua Pavilion. They are people from Xihua Pavilion. Mr. Guo San. You have to look at the owner when you beat a dog. You are noisy here, which affects the business in the store. Please go out." Guard Zhou made a gesture of inviting him.
Guard Zhou suddenly came to interfere in this matter, which made the shopkeeper of Xihua Pavilion stunned, but he soon came to his senses; Guard Zhou was the person next to the lady, and it was the lady who sympathized with the singing girls and wanted to save their lives.
The one who had the support of the shopkeeper of Duke Anguo Mansion was also full of confidence. He cooperated with the guard Zhou and "invited" Guo Ni to leave Xihua Pavilion. The sister who was singing was still confused, but the sister knew she had met a noble person and said gratefully: "Thank you, the young master, for your kind help."
"I am not a young man, I am just a guard. I saved you on the order of my lady. You two follow me to meet my lady. My lady has something to ask you." Guard Zhou took them to the third floor.
