Chapter 142 A Ling
A cold wind blew in Jinping City in the afternoon, blew up the boats on the riverside swaying slightly along the ripples.
Just after Shi Shi, Ah Ling, who had a full sleep on the Qinyinfang flower boat, seemed to be gently shaking by a shaking flower boat. She got up wrapped in a quilt, turned her head and said to the outside with satisfaction: "I'm awake."
A Yuan, who was waiting outside, hurriedly walked to the door of the shop owner and said, "Master, A Ling is awake."
"I understand. Go to the kitchen and ask them to heat the bowl of lotus seeds and red date soup I stewed, and then send it to A Ling's room after two minutes." Jiuning said and walked out of the room.
Jiuning walked along the way, and the other girls in the Qinyinfang had already gotten up and dressed up, and they only drove the boat to entertain guests after dinner. The girls here were all selling their skills but not the body, and there were more than A Ling who played the piano. A Ling would only appear at the hour of Hai until the end of the hour of the middle.
The girls in the shop leaned over to bow to Jiuning when they passed by. After Jiuning returned the gift, they continued to walk towards A Ling's room. The girls here knew that the owner loved A Ling. Although they were a little jealous, A Ling was only an eight-year-old child after all. Moreover, they had received the news that many immortals had come here and wanted to take A Ling as their disciple to take her away. In this way, the girls were not only jealous, but also wished A Ling could remember their good deeds. They heard that they would be able to keep their faces alive after becoming immortals. Which woman would not be moved by these things?
When Jiuning knocked on A Ling's door, A Ling had already put on her pink jacket in the room. Her long fluffy and messy hair was still waiting for Jiuning to come and comb her. A Ling knew that Jiuning was coming, and she said happily: "Master, come in quickly."
After Jiu Ning entered the room, he saw A Ling who was waiting for her to comb her hair in front of the mirror. Jiu Ning chuckled, took a wooden comb from the mirror, carefully combed her hair and said, "I'm so old, I'll still want me to comb your hair."
A Ling acted coquettishly in Jiu Ning's arms and said, "No matter how old A Ling is, she is the good kid of the shopkeeper."
Jiu Ning combed A Ling's long hair one by one and said, "You, you shouldn't have adopted you back at the beginning, otherwise there wouldn't be so much trouble now."
A Ling's cute little face said aggrievedly: "Master, it's not me who asked them to come."
"Okay, okay, don't blame you or you." Jiu Ning couldn't resist it and reluctantly touched A Ling's little head.
A Ling smiled again and said, "The owner is the best for me."
Jiu Ning smiled and said, "To be honest, Ling Yatou, which master do you like?"
A Ling shook her head and said, "No one is interested in it. I don't want to practice immortality at all. I just want to be here with the master."
Jiu Ning said a pity: "They seem to be very powerful. If you learn immortal skills from them, you may become more powerful than them in the future. And I heard that you can live forever after learning immortal skills in the end."
A Ling said distractedly: "So what if I can live forever? I don't want it. Besides, I don't know them, so why should I follow them? When I need help from others the most, it was the owner who adopted me so that I could have food and clothing. Instead of seeing me as they did, I would be nice to me if I saw that I had a piano heart. That's so good, A Ling didn't want it. A Ling just wanted to stay with the owner forever, playing the piano for an hour a day on this flower boat, and the owner held me in his palm and pampered me."
"You." Jiu Ning looked at A Ling with drowsiness, tied her hair and folded it on top of her head, and combed a lily bun. With A Ling's pink jacket, she looked cute and elegant.
Jiu Ning asked A Ling to look in the mirror and asked, "How is it? Are you still satisfied?"
A Ling looked at herself in the mirror and nodded, "A Ling is most satisfied with the hair bun that the owner of the shop helped A Ling comb.
"How can your mouth be so sweet?" Jiu Ning really loved A Ling so much.
A Ling smiled and said, "It's only for the owner. You know, those people outside can't hear me say something OK."
Jiuning nodded and said, "This is true."
Just as the two were laughing and chatting in the room, A Yuan outside knocked on the door: "Master, the lotus seeds and red date soup is ready."
Jiu Ning said to the outsider: "Send it in."
A Yuan entered in response, put the bowl of lotus seeds and red date soup on the table and then retreated.
"Drink, I'll go stew it myself when you're asleep." Jiu Ning said to A Ling, "I don't know why I love you so much."
"Some things can't be explained clearly." A Ling smiled obediently when she got the advantage, and happily drank the bowl of lotus seeds and red date soup.
Seeing that A Ling would not agree to those immortals during this period, Jiu Ning went with her. Anyway, those immortals said they were willing to wait, so they were not in a hurry, and she, the owner, was even less in a hurry.
Jiu Ning was still busy waiting for the matter of waiting for the boat to entertain guests, so she said to A Ling: "Wait until you are still in the hour of Hai, and there is no regulation on the track. You can play whatever you want. After the hour of Zhong, you wash and sleep."
A Ling ate another spoonful and said, "I don't care what A Ling is playing in front, but in the end, I will definitely use the owner's sending moon to finish it."
"It's up to you, I'm going to do my business first." Jiu Ning said that and left the room.
A Ling was eating the bowl of lotus seeds and red date soup in the room. In A Ling's opinion, the immortal family's chance and spiritual pills are better than the bowl of lotus seeds and red date soup she is eating now.
The winter night is very dark, but the night cannot stop the crowds coming out to visit Jinping City. In three days, the fiftieth birthday of Emperor Shengde of Qin will be celebrated. By then, the Qin State will celebrate the whole world and Jinping City will be ready. Windproof lanterns are hung on the trees on both sides of the riverside, and after lit, the riverside overlooking is like a winding dragon.
The flower boats on the riverside should pass by time. They all bloom at the hour of You and slowly drift over the twenty-mile riverside. The flower boats in Qinyinfang may not be the most luxurious ones, but they must be the most guests. Because those people are afraid that they will not be able to catch up with A Ling's performance, they came to the shore to board the boat very early. The flower boats in Qinyinfang can only accommodate seventy or eighty people. Once the number of people is reached, the flower boats in Qinyinfang will no longer be docked to entertain guests. Those early guests will usually go to see girls you know to play chess or talk about poetry and songs. A Ling's performance is in the hour of Hai, and other girls will play the piano before this, so they will only think that it is to listen to it to cheer up.
Before the hour of Hai arrived, people were surging on the flower boat, waiting for A Ling who was about to play on the piano position on the second floor.
At this moment, A Ling held the first piano given to her by the shopkeeper and waited behind. Since the reputation of the piano girl spread, many famous piano makers have brought the good pianos they made with them for A Ling to choose, but A Ling didn't like any of them, or she didn't want to change the one in her hand. Jiu Ning also saw her thoughts, and she politely rejected the piano making that came to visit the piano for her. After the piano making was rejected, they couldn't help but feel guilty and thought that A Ling had a reputation. Until they heard A Ling's piano sound at the time of Hai, they all admired it, thinking that their piano was not worthy of A Ling.
As soon as the hour of Hai arrived, the whole flower boat suddenly became quiet, and some flower boats also leaned towards the flower boats of Qinyinfang. More than a dozen homemade boats appeared on the riverside. This was also a way for others to attract business. Since the Qinyinfang could not accommodate guests, they would just load some guests who wanted to listen to A Ling playing the piano. Jiu Ning was all in the flower boat owners above the riverside. She only made one request for this matter, that is, the cost of boarding the flower boats they leaned over could not be lower than that of their Qinyinfang, otherwise those people could all go to the boats they leaned over to listen. The ship owners all knew that Jiu Ning's approach was already very favorable, and they all agreed.
A Ling was wearing that pink jacket, holding a vermilion piano and moving in detail to the piano table. I think she was still young, Jiu Ning specially asked A Yuan to prepare a futon wrapped in cotton for her to make it more comfortable to sit higher and sit higher.
The incense burners and the like that had been burned on the piano table were all removed by Ayuan. He knew A Ling's habits, just one piano and one person.
A Ling stretched out her hand and bent her fingers and asked to the bottom: "What do you want to hear today?"
There was a young man dressed in a literati who was obviously looking forward to it. He stood up first and said, "Miss A Ling, I will take a boat to Qindu tomorrow. I will come to listen to the girl's piano tonight. Can you play a song for me with this?"
"Okay." A Ling looked at the elegant scholar and played his fingers on the piano. Everyone closed their eyes as if they felt the wind and pine waves coming to the farewell, and it seemed like the wind and waves were passing straight to the Qindu. A Ling's fingering gradually became faster on the strings of the piano, as if she saw the scholar's full of ambitions, but she also played the confusion about the long road ahead from her heart. A Ling smiled lightly, and the sound of the piano began to become high and exciting, pulling out all the confidence in everyone's future. Then the sound of the piano slowed down, and it seemed to be a review of the future after success and success. As A Ling played the last sound, the afterglow of the piano on the flower boat in the Qinyinfang was subtle and long.
Everyone was immersed in A Ling's piano music, as if they had seen the lifelong ambition of the elegant scholar. Yu Qinghou and Feng Old on the flower boat showed a look of surprise at the same time. They finally knew why the Miaoyin Shangzun valued A Ling so much. If Kong Mingqinxin had practiced, he would have unparalleled wonderful uses on his own and others' avenues.
A Ling looked at these people who were immersed in the piano music habitually, knowing that they would be able to recover after a while, so she leaned lazily on the piano table.
But this time, unlike before, an applause containing spiritual energy awakened the people immersed in the piano music, and then they also calmed down and applauded one after another. Especially the elegant scholar, A Ling perfectly popped his heart, and he almost cried with joy.
When A Ling saw that it was the leader named Yu Qinghou who applauded, she wanted to tease him on purpose and said, "The young man in white who applauded first, do you have anything to hear?"
Seeing A Ling speaking, everyone on the boat looked at him, Yu Qinghou stood up with a smile and said, "Xiaosheng thanked the girl for loving love, but Xiaosheng's heart sound is not so easy to play."
A Ling said unconvincedly: "Oh? Then I'm even more interested."
Yu Qinghou chuckled and said, "Please, girl."
"Wait." A Ling's jade hand was gently tilted, and Yu Qinghou felt that the sound of A Ling's piano was surrounding her. But A Ling's expression was a bit strange. She felt that Yu Qinghou's heart was shrouded in a layer of fog.
Just as A Ling was about to go further with the sound of the piano, the strings on her table were broken with a tingling sound.
