Xianyu Infrastructure, I have a lot of troops in my hands

Listening to all the gossip, Xie Xian felt like a badger entering a melon field, and soon she felt full.

Although the South may not appear as unrestrained as the North on the surface, these men and women also have a lot of fun in private.

She glanced at the two stunning beauties sitting below Li You. One was as cold as a fairy, the other was extremely charming. At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao was playing chess with Li You.

Lianxiang also played the piano by herself, and didn't seem to care about being ignored. Such a lonely attitude made many students look at her with admiration.

Tsk tsk, you city people really know how to have fun.

Li You felt Xie Xian's gaze and couldn't help but curl his lips slightly. He put down the chess piece in his hand and looked up.

Xie Xian propped up her chin and watched Lianxiang playing the piano intently with admiration in her eyes. When she looked at him, her eyes lingered on Su Xiaoxiao.

He coughed lightly. So he was just a bystander?

Xie Xian simply admired the beauty and complained about Li You's happiness of having many wives.

Tsk tsk, these two beauties really have their own characteristics! Su Xiaoxiao couldn't stand Xie Xian's gaze, so she looked back. Instead of the disgust and contempt she had expected, she only saw appreciation in Xie Xian's eyes.

Su Xiaoxiao was a little surprised. She was used to seeing the disgusted, staring or jealous expressions of the ladies from various families. This was the first time she felt kindness from a woman.

"Madam Xian, how do you listen to this song? This is a new piece that Lianxiang has been practicing for many days!" she said unconsciously.

Lianxiang's cold face was slightly flushed. Just now, Xie Xian had been staring at her playing the piano. Su Xiaoxiao pointed it out, and she felt a little embarrassed at the moment: "Excuse me for showing off."

"Miss Lianxiang is an outstanding guqin player," Xie Xian really thought she played well. The guqin emphasizes artistic conception and can make those who hear it intoxicated by it, which is quite impressive.

Seeing that Xie Xian actually praised her, Su Xiaoxiao felt uncomfortable. At this moment, she understood how aggrieved Li You had felt just now. This Madam Xian really didn't play by the rules!

She touched the jade bracelet on her arm and said, "I heard that the latest zither music is from the Huajia Lebanon. It is said that there is also a zither that has been changed to strings. It is said that it was taught by a demon fairy on the river."

She covered her mouth and chuckled, "They have also released several new musical instruments, which is really amazing." She said she admired them, but she didn't believe it in her heart. These people would brag about anything to show off.

Lianxiang believed it. She was obsessed with music. As a famous courtesan in Xian County, she respected the zither players who could create new music. "It's a pity that I don't have the chance to meet them."

Su Xiaoxiao giggled twice, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and looked at Li You with a pair of charming eyes, "It will be soon. Since we are all in the mountains, we will see each other sooner or later!"

Seeing that everyone was chatting animatedly, Xie Xian didn't take the Hua Clan they mentioned to heart.

When I returned home in the evening, I learned that the girls of the Xie family had made an appointment with Wang Yu and Ma Rong to go out for fun together. Wang Yu and others were proficient in various aristocratic activities, and their schedule was full of activities such as flying kites, writing poems to flowers, appreciating falling cherry blossoms, and playing chuiwan.

Xie Xian was naturally happy without her company. In fact, a few days ago, Xie Minyan and a few others noticed how busy Xie Xian was. She discussed with Xiang Jie and others until very late at night and had to accompany them to play during the day. They sympathized with her elder sister's hard work, so they consciously arranged a place for themselves.

The Xie sisters were having a great time, but they didn't know that at this moment, outside the garden, two people were standing on a big rock by the river and were also talking about them, or to be exact, the garden they lived in.

The older man squatted on the ground, writing and scratching with a branch, muttering to himself: "This shouldn't be the case. I calculated that there would be no one there."

The younger boy stood on a large rock nearby, gathered his strength and jumped up, using the force to look into the garden, "Brother, are you okay? Are we going to sleep under the bridge again today?"

"No, as a strategist, I have to win by wisdom." Zuo Wei was unwilling.

"Brother, you tricked that rich young man into mortgaging the garden to the academy, knowing that the garden could not be rented out." The young man in thin clothes shivered from the cold.

"But there are people living in there now. It is said that they are a group of noble ladies with guards." After tossing and turning for a long time, he was tired and leaned against Zuo Ci, curling himself up skillfully.

Zuo Wei frowned and said, "I have already calculated the cost for this old gatekeeper. As long as we pay less money, he can let us stay for a few nights."

"Didn't you say that the White Crane Academy is the most aloof and ignorant of economics, and that if they wanted to rent out this garden, they would definitely make a lot of outrageous demands? How come this garden has really been rented out now?"

The young man seemed to be suffering from the cold and his voice was nasal.

Zuo Wei sighed, "Oh, it's all my fault. The Shen family is really not a good place. They don't even give their guests a hot meal. They are really rude."

He took out a few dry grasses from his bag and stuffed them into the young man's hand: "Eat these herbs first!"

The young man accepted it resignedly and said angrily, "Brother, the Shen family doesn't treat us as guests, they treat us as beggars!"

Chewing the strange-tasting herbs in his mouth, he felt helpless, "Are we really not going to look for the Xie family in the north? Senior Brother Qu wrote to me, saying that they are a good family, and now we... Alas!" We are in such a miserable state.

Looking at the stubborn look on his senior brother's face, he could only shut up. He was happy that Senior Brother Qu had found a master who was willing to accept a disciple of the Zongheng Sect in such a desolate place in the north.

The two had originally set out from Kangjian, but met refugees on the way. The senior brother lamented that the world was difficult, and when the weather turned cold, they turned directly to the south. The senior brother said that there were many aristocratic families in the south, and it was just right for him to catch up with the Kuaiji Qingtan held once every three years, so he could broaden his horizons.

But he privately thought that it was simply because the south was warmer and sleeping under a bridge in the winter would not freeze people to death.

A few days ago, the senior brother swore that he had found a good place to live. Now the area under the bridge is packed with sea dwellers and they can't squeeze in. But the senior brother said he could find a garden to stay.

Although the senior brother was proficient in the art of diplomacy, after the death of the master, he gave a death order and established many rules. The senior brother rarely used the art of diplomacy. He basically only used the art of Yixue and Fengshui. This way, the two of them would not starve to death on the streets.

However, although the senior brother had opened up all the connections for this garden, he never expected that in the end, he would be making wedding dresses for others. Thinking of this, Zuo Ci looked at his senior brother with complicated eyes. This luck was really amazing.

"Don't worry. Wait until this grand gathering is over before we go find the same one. Besides, it's not easy for your Senior Brother Qu. In his letter, he described the Lady of the Xie Family as being so wise and powerful. She doesn't look like a real person. There must be other reasons."

Zuo Wei sneered inwardly, thinking, how many ladies from aristocratic families can stand on their own feet? They either rely on their status to cling to men, or rely on their beauty to act recklessly.

Moreover, Qu Qing is the one with the most no bottom line among their fellow disciples. He can even stay in a bandit's lair. He must think twice before speaking. That guy is used to acting recklessly because of his short life. If he takes his younger brothers with him, he may be controlled by him.

Most importantly, "I don't believe he can be so lucky."
