Chapter 259 The Ten Days of Yangzhou in the Long History

“…Fate is ours, and we listen to the sound of rain in Kalan Temple, and hope for eternity…”

As Yu Youwei plucked the strings with her hands, until the ending tone of her singing was extended to the end, she finished playing the song. She slowly raised her head, smiled at Cao Yi, and said softly: "Young Master, Youwei is ugly..."

"It's really a surprise. How did you play this song?" Cao Yi said with a little excitement at this time.

"I have recorded it after Xiao Tanyun sang it to me before. I have been thinking about it with Jin'er before, which was just figured out a few days ago. I don't know if it's right, but looking at the young master's expression just now, it seems that Youwei's music score is at least good." Yu Youwei said with a smile.

"It's not just good, it's so well composed. You Wei and Jin'er are so amazing." Cao Yi rarely praised people so excitedly, mainly because he didn't expect that, and he suddenly heard the songs he was familiar with in his previous life without any preparation. No matter who he was, he would be excited.

"Since the young master likes this song so much, it's not in vain that Jin'er and I have been thinking and thinking day and night. What if the young master agrees to each of my requests for Jin'er?" Yu Youwei looked at Cao Yi with a clever smile, with a cunning expression in her eyes.

Since Yu Youwei left Yangzhou, she seemed to be much more lively than usual, and the overall feeling she gave was brighter. Cao Yi was naturally happy to see her change so she smiled and said with a faint smile: "Yes, I can promise you and Jin'er each of them to have any conditions, but it is only valid on the journey before arriving in Yangzhou."

After hearing this, Yu Youwei and Jin'er both pouted slightly. Yu Youwei's face showed a slightly resentful expression on her face, and said in a slightly coquettish tone: "Young Master is so stingy, there is still time limit..."

Jin'er nodded with a deep sense of sympathy and complained in her heart: The lady is right, thanks to Tan Yun, Shii Yue and others who have been praising the young master for being generous and generous to others...

Cao Yi laughed and said, "Anyway, I promised you two to have the same condition. You should cherish it. Either you will mention it now or later. However, if you haven't raised it when you arrived in Yangzhou, I will regard it as an opportunity for you to give up these two requests. You must seize it..."

Yu Youwei and Jin'er looked at each other, as if discussing what to say. The remaining Hongxiu, Qixian and Qingwen were also watching them at this time, not knowing what they would make. Dan Tai Mingde, Wang Zhiyuan and Gong Ye Yuanzhou were also present. Gong Ye Yuanzhou and Dan Tai Mingde had no reaction, and they looked like they were not in their own way, but Wang Zhiyuan was different. At this time, he was restless and wanted to get up to communicate with Yu Youwei and the others, but as soon as his butt left his seat, he sat down again, looking hesitant.

Without thinking, Wang Zhiyuan, who had just been blocked in the cabin by Hongxiu in the morning and said something fiercely and had been said by Cao Yi for a few words. At this moment, he naturally hoped to get the opportunity of Yu Youwei and Jin'er to make requests. In this way, he would not need to do so on at least this journey.

I am worried about drinking, so I won’t be like this now…

Wang Zhiyuan glanced at the tea in his hand, sighed, drank it depressedly, and even squirted his mouth after drinking it, it was very light!

However, it was precisely because of the sound of smacking that Hongxiu noticed him. Wang Zhiyuan quickly smiled at Hongxiu as if he was flattering, with a look of obedience and kindness. However, Hongxiu was obviously still worried about his teacher's uncontrollable drink yesterday afternoon. At this time, he just snorted and turned his head to look at Yu Youwei, not giving his teacher some face.

Miss Yue and Xing'er were also planning to go back at this time, because now they have listened to the song and the Qin, and if they stay, they will be discovered and will be embarrassed. So Miss Yue and Xing'er looked at each other and prepared to leave, but they were pulled by the next sentence and were about to take a step.

"Young Master, Jin'er and I have already discussed it. We plan to ask you to compensate you for what we promised us but did not complete." Yu Youwei looked at Cao Yi and said slowly.

"Hmm? There is a hidden truth!" This is what everyone thought at the moment. Even Hongxiu looked at Yu Youwei with a strange look on his face, and then at his son. Miss Yue and Xing'er who had already planned to leave before, all stopped by a traitor.

"Ahem!" At this moment, even Cao Yi felt guilty. Could it be that he had promised them something before but did not keep his word? It seemed that he was not the kind of person who had left them all the time... I've been drunk in front of them? Never... Cao Yi's thoughts were sharp and he was sure that he had not found the "unnecessary things" he had missed, and then he said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Yesterday morning, Mr., you promised to recite poems and lyrics for us next time. Look, we visited Beigushan yesterday afternoon and missed the ancient times. You were not talented. You are so talented. You recite poems and essays. And the story of the water-filled Jinshan Temple yesterday afternoon was also told to tell them later. The young master seemed to have forgotten. Why don't you do this? Today, you will first compensate Jin'er's request, tell us the story of the water-filled Jinshan Temple, and then compensate me for my request. You can write poems and lyrics for me. Well, let's take the theme of visiting Beigushan as the topic. How about it?" Yu Youwei said quickly at this time. Everyone sighed in their hearts when they heard this. It turned out to be these two things. I thought...

Miss Yue and Xing'er both looked surprised. Looking at each other, they seemed to say that we were wrong. In their previous thoughts, Cao Yi's impression was that of the kind of official children who had a prominent family background but were not smart enough, without studying talent, but now they heard that girl named Youwei say that she had asked Mr. Cao to write poems and lyrics before, but she was rejected. I don't know if she really didn't have talent, so she refused. Now that she mentioned that Mr. Cao again, she didn't know whether the latter would agree.

If they agree, they can see whether he has the talent for studying or talented... As for the story of "Water Floating Jinshan Temple"

…Uh… As a native born in Runzhou, Miss Yue still knows some stories and legends here. The story tells the story of a white snake causing trouble to the world, and there is nothing strange about it. Anyway,

If you listen, don’t listen... But you can leave the poems for later viewing and appreciate them carefully, if this young master Cao promises to write poems and lyrics.

Cao Yi's heart was a little calmer at this time, and his previous uneasiness and anxiety were relieved. Otherwise, he would have really doubted whether he had really not paid attention to it at the beginning, so he agreed to some conditions but never fulfilled it. It turned out to be these two. "I thought what you were talking about. If these two words are completely fine, then I will tell you about the "Legend of the White Snake" first."

"Wait, young master, didn't you talk about "Water Floating Jinshan Temple"? How did it become "The Legend of White Snake"?" Jin'er asked, after all, this request was considered her.

"Same, the same, "The Legend of White Snake" is "The Water-Floating Jinshan Temple", but the name is different, and "The Legend of White Snake" also includes the story of "The Water-Floating Jinshan Temple"." Cao Yi explained.

"Oh..." Jin'er nodded and then spoke, "Young Master, just talk about "The Legend of White Snake".

"Well, then I'll start talking... In the past, that is, a long time ago, there was a white snake that practiced for a thousand years and finally turned into a human form. Then she named herself Bai Suzhen, and this snake demon was still a good snake spirit. She remembered that when she was a child, a person saved her life. She always remembered that in her heart, she thought to find that person to repay her kindness. Of course, that person had been reincarnated for a long time and didn't know what he had returned. However, because Bai Suzhen had a thousand years of skill, she could know where the benefactor was in this life. On the way, she met the green snake spirit Xiaoqing. The two went to Hangzhou to find the benefactor for this life, a scholar named Xu Xian... Later, Xu Xian was deceived by the monk Fahai of Jinshan Temple to Jinshan Temple and was arrested, which led to Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing fighting with Fahai and trying to rescue Xu Xian, so she used her magic power to flood Jinshan Temple..."

At this time, the sun shone on everyone's body warm and made people feel very comfortable. However, Cao Yi was the only one who took a sip of hot tea to moisten his throat on the entire deck. After all, the story had been told for a long time just now. But the others were still immersed in the story of Bai Snake and Xu Xian that Cao Yi just told.

"The Legend of White Snake" is indeed quite exciting. The wonderful links such as "Black-shouted Boat Borrowing Umbrella", "Bai Suzhen Stealing Ganoderma lucidum Grass", "Water Flooding Jinshan Temple", "Yongzhen Leifeng Pagoda", and "The Top Principal Scholar Sacrifices to Mother and Family Reunion" are much better than the stories told by ordinary storytellers.

Even Miss Yue felt that she admired Mr. Cao a little at this time. Regardless of whether he had talent or not, her current level of storytelling is even better than those who made a living by telling stories. However, in this way, he was even more looking forward to the performance of Mr. Cao's lyrics in writing. After all, she was born and raised in Runzhou, and she knew some of the poems about Beigushan. If Mr. Cao borrowed from other people's poems, she would know at once that if she wrote them herself, she would have enough ability to appreciate them. What is the level of poetry written by Mr. Cao?
