  Chapter 134 Character (1)

  The horse is getting a bit hot under the sun and neighs softly while shaking its head.

  "Third Granny, you've come at a really bad time. The master of the house has gone out to visit friends and won't be back for three to five days. However, he did instruct us that if you came, we should take you on a stroll around the garden. It's also quite hot today, so please come in and have a cup of cool tea first to dispel the morning heat."

  The beauty still ignores her.

  "Third Grandma?" he asked cautiously once more.

  Qiu Sanniang seemed to suddenly come to a realization, her eyes gleaming with clarity for an instant. "Since your master is not at home, I won't enter. When he returns, just tell him I came by. I'll send someone with a calling card another day and come again."

  After finishing speaking, she called Bai He and Xiao Yi to get on the carriage. Turning her head to Xiang Chen, "Please ask Guardian Xiang to lead the way in front, heading towards Song Zhen Alley."

  Xiao Xing heart thought this was for the best. He heard Mozi say something about the east house, and guessed that the third young madam had come to visit a man. Xiao Sanlang had already gotten rid of two wives, so he had to be careful not to let this one do anything that would cause gossip. After saying this, he mounted his horse and ordered his subordinates to protect him from front and back.

  With a single carriage and four horses, they just left like that.

  Cen Er was stunned, and didn't speak for a while before opening his mouth to say, "Mò Gē, what's going on here? Shouldn't the host enter the garden, have a cup of tea, take a stroll around, and then leave?"

  He faintly withdrew his gaze, put his hands behind his back and walked towards the gate, "I don't know what the master is thinking either. Maybe it's inconvenient to let those four guards follow him, or maybe he has taken a clear look at Lin's residence and thinks it's really not bad, so he's too lazy to come in and take a look."

  Cen Er hurried to keep up with Mozi's footsteps. "The possibility of the former is still a bit greater. If it's the latter, the temperament of the Dong family, how can they not enter the door without entering? They must see it with their own eyes before they feel at ease. However, what I'm most afraid of is that the Dong family doesn't even look at it, are they dissatisfied with this place? We've paid out all our silver, and the land deed has been transferred to her name, don't say no now."

  "I'll take a look at the face of the East House, it doesn't seem dissatisfied. You wait for me to go back tonight and ask again, we must not scare ourselves. One thousand eight hundred taels of silver, if we are asked to compensate, that's a dead end." Mozi said with a chuckle.

  Cen Er patted his chest and exclaimed, "Aiyoh mama! Mo Ge, I admit defeat, you're really reassuring, and can still laugh about it."

  Mei Zi restrained her smile and replied seriously, "Or would you like me to cry for you?"

  Cen Er rolled her eyes and asked her partner to close the door, "Mo Ge, I didn't know you could be so cunning."

  "Easy to say, easy to say." Mozi clasped his hands together, "This isn't called showing off, this is finding joy in hardship, having a positive attitude. Haven't you heard? The more someone thinks they're unlucky, the more unlucky they'll be; the more someone thinks they're lucky, the luckier they'll be."

  "I've never heard of it." Xuan Er was drawn in by Mo Zi's theory, "Is that true?"

  "Of course it's true, otherwise how would there be the four words 'as you wish'." Mozi decided to set an example and start a major turnaround.

  Cen Er rolled her eyes again.

  However, Qiu San Niang's strange attitude confused Xun Er. Before dinner time, she ordered the kitchen to serve early and urged people to eat quickly. In the colorful clouds at the horizon, she asked Zan Jin to send Mo Zi back to Jing Wang Fu. She repeatedly instructed that if anything unexpected happened, no matter how late it was, they must notify her, so that she could sleep peacefully.

  Mozi kept emphasizing "don't worry, don't worry", but Cen Er didn't listen at all, with an expression that showed he was prepared to lose money.

  Cen Er hurriedly urged, Mo Zi and Zan rode horses but were very leisurely. It's worth knowing that Mo Zi didn't like being shaken until his whole body ached, and once he went out, he didn't want to go back, so the later the better.

  The two of them strolled into the most prosperous area in Yuhefang.

  "Mo Ge, it seems lively over there, can we go take a look?" Zan Jin was a curious and novelty-loving person.

  Mozi saw the vertical board with official notices on horseback, but he wasn't interested, so he said to Zanjin, "You go take a look, I'll ride slowly, and you can catch up."

  "That's no good, what if something happens to you." Zan Jin refused outright.

  "Hmm - why don't you go take a look, I'll just wait for you here?" This master of hers was absolutely better than Qiu San Niang, better than all the masters in the world.

  He took a few steps forward to measure the distance between them, and if Mo Zi didn't move, he just needed to turn his head back a few times to grasp her surroundings, then he could relax and watch the excitement.

  The purple horse leaned against a wall. As the sky was about to darken, many shops were preparing to close, and those who set up stalls and carried miscellaneous goods had already left in all directions. Feeling that her shadow was suddenly shone in the opposite direction, she looked at her side. Not far from where she stood, on top of two stone lions, eight magnificent lotus-shaped lanterns made of glass lit up, shining brightly. After a while, the door became busy, with many clean and pleasant-looking young servants coming in and out, and she could also hear the noise coming from inside the wall.

  Laughter, music, charming words, tender voices.

  She clamped her legs together and retreated a few steps. Her gaze passed over the wall, seeing a magnificent red building with bright lights, three stories high, square and majestic, with sixteen large pillars on each side, covered with sixteen large and small corners, flying beasts and treasures on top, very impressive.

  She was curious about what this building was for, and just as she thought of riding her horse to the gate to take a look at the signboard, someone called out "Mò Gē" in an uncertain tone. She glanced sideways, and saw a small sedan chair with two bearers, its window curtain lifted.

  It was indeed an acquaintance, and one that she didn't particularly want to see. However, since she had come with Qiu San Niang, she had mentally prepared herself for the possibility of running into her again sooner or later.

  She reluctantly dismounted and bowed her fist at him, "Mr. Zhong An, it's been a long time?"

  That person was none other than Jo An, who was like a military strategist among the three of them and liked to hold fans.

  Actually, this person is not bad, it's just that the opportunity to get to know each other was not very good, and in a situation where neither side did anything good, there were beautiful wishes for no future. However, they met again so soon. Speaking of which, she lived in a house with Xiao Erlang but had never seen him before.

  Zhong An saw that he hadn't mistaken the person, and was even more friendly than Mo Zi had imagined. He hastily called for the sedan chair to stop, got out of it, and cupped his hands together in greeting. "I've been doing all right lately, Brother Mo. How about you?"

  "It's fine." After saying these two words, Mozi didn't know what to say anymore. He couldn't very well ask, "Sir, have you recently received any secret missions?"

  But just because she has nothing to say doesn't mean others have nothing to say.

  "Is Mo Ge here on business or for a long stay?" Zhong An had always admired Mo Zi. They used to have different views, but now they could chat freely.

  "I followed my master to move to Shangdu." Mozi thought of telling a lie, but then she thought that it's easy to tell a lie but hard to maintain it. She would have to come to Yuhefang again in the future and the probability of running into him again was not low, so she told the "truth".

  "Moge said it was the last time, and indeed he kept his word. Under the emperor's feet, it's better to make a living honestly. Otherwise, meeting each other would be awkward, right?" Zhong An smiled. A white jade hairpin at his waist emitted a soft glow, obviously a fine piece.

  This Zhong An doesn't seem like one of Xiao Wei's underlings. Mo Zi thought, probably also an official.

  "Mr. Zhong'an is really good at joking, our boss has always been a honest and down-to-earth businessman. Haha——" Mozi laughed, no matter if the other person was sincere or not, he would rather die than admit to the dark side of their past.

  Zhang An couldn't help but laugh, "Mo Ge is right, being honest and down-to-earth is just like me, Zhang Mou."

  The two of them pretended to be silly and confused, as if what had happened earlier was all forgotten.

  "Mo Ge, is this coming to pay respects?" Zhong An suddenly tapped Mo Zi's shoulder with his fan.

  A man in his thirties, still looking elegant and refined, was making eyes at her, and Meizi couldn't take it. She shrugged her shoulders, letting the fan slip from her grasp. Inwardly, she shouted: Can't you just say what's on your mind?!

  "Huh? What's going on?"

  "In Luozhou, there's a Wangqiulou, and in our place, we have a Wuyouge. Inside are the most beautiful women, ranked among the best. However, Ge Qiu can only be admired from afar, not approached rashly. But the girls in Wuyouge can keep you company for a night, with the spring breeze blowing gently... making your bones soft." Zhong An's face was filled with slyness.

  Once again proved, men are all good-looking.

  He pointed at the outer wall with a hint of surprise, "This is Wuyou Pavilion?" I've long admired its reputation.

  "Why so serious, Mo Ge? You're still young and vigorous, you should find a beautiful girl who understands romance to spend the night with. However, you've chosen a great place. The women in Wu You Lou are different from those in other brothels, although they charge high prices, each one is well-versed in the arts, and there are seven or eight women known for their talents alone, not to mention the famous Mo Xiu girl who can captivate the city with just one smile. She's a national treasure, her zither skills are divine, even the imperial court's chief musician would acknowledge her intelligence." Zhong An said, his eyebrows dancing with excitement.

  "Want to find a beautiful girl to sleep with?" Mei Zi was shocked and laughed, "I always thought that Mr. Zhong An was talented and knowledgeable, but I didn't expect him to say such straightforward words. At least use some euphemisms like 'spending a romantic night together', it's embarrassing for me. As for Mo Xiu, which one of us ordinary people can see her?" To be honest, first, she had never heard of this famous Mo Xiu, and as a woman herself, she didn't have any unusual interest in another woman. Second, whenever someone with the highest title appears, most of them are quite disappointing when seen in person, so she didn't believe it.

  "What's wrong with that? They're all men." Zhong An smiled brightly, "However, you really said it right. Miss Mo Xiu is not someone ordinary people can meet. When she receives guests, there is a condition: not gold or silver, but the other party must do something that makes her willing to show her face. For example, a good poem, a good song. There was also a bookworm who wrote poetry and got too nervous, rolled down the stairs and broke his leg, Miss Mo Xiu came out and smiled. It's said that the bookworm was lucky."

  A bunch of nerds. Ran into a brothel, spent money, and still had to act like fools?

  And there's Mo Chou, who had her leg broken by someone, but she still smiled, how heartless can one be?

  Mei Zi saw Zan Jin coming over and thought it was a good opportunity to leave, "Unfortunately, I'm not free today, the master is waiting for my response."

  "Mo Ge, you missed today. It won't be easy to see Mo Xiu in the future. When Bai Yu arrived, Mo Xiu didn't have any conditions and voluntarily came out to play the piano to help him. How about I arrange one for you?" Zhong An warmly invited her to join the "dinner party".

  "Thank you for Mr. Zhong An's kindness, I appreciate it. But tonight is really not possible, let's do it another day." Must not include Mozi.

  Xiao Er Lang is indeed a romantic figure.
