Chapter 201 Danmo Building
Like what Sheng Lu said, Danmo Building wasn't far from the dock.
The carriage stopped very soon.
As the curtain was lifted, they smelled a bitter fragrance coming in the wind before getting out.
And as they stepped out of the carriage, a luxuriant chrysanthemum was seen by the road, light golden and aromatic.
Green-tiled, pink-walled, with red railings and well-carved windows, a three-story building was erected nearby, of which under the eave of the first floor hanged a gilded plate reading Danmo Building.
With the gate open, people came and went all the time, which composed a bustling scene.
Sheng Lu waited until Sheng Weiqiao and the others all came out of the carriage and then showed them in. As the one in charge of Sheng Family's local business, he knew well the staff in Danmo Building.
Seeing him, an old man who dressed richly immediately came up to receive him. He said cheerfully, "Mr.

Sheng Lu immediately snapped gaze back from her and made a bow, "Miss, that woman is exactly Master Shi, the best dancer in Danmo Building, who was hired the year before. She's an excellent dancer and is particularly known for the work Green Waist. She's respected as a guest here, so she doesn't perform every day. It was announced that she won't be on stage until the last day of the Chrysanthemum Contest, so I didn't expect an unscheduled show today. Miss, you're lucky!""Green Waist?" Sheng Weiwu chimed in, intrigued, "Does she know the Dance on Tray and Drum? Our domestic geishas are good at it! I wonder who the winner will be if they have a contest?"Sheng Weiqiao thought to herself that though Master Shi wouldn't be here every day, no one could tell if they were just lucky or Sheng Lu had prepared it in advance. He was the one who pulled strings, anyway. She tapped her sister's forehead, "Being seen as a guest here, obviously, she's not a regular dancer

The ambiance of the building was not particularly lively, but it was at least very amiable.The words just silenced the whole building, as if everyone was being splashed with a basin of cold water!“Zhao Taozhuang!” After a short while, they heard a smash from the next room and then an angry voice of a girl, “You said the poem I wrote was hideous. Write a remarkable poem to widen our horizon then and there if you can.”Hearing the voice, Sheng Weiqiao asked Sheng Lu in a low voice, “Is this Zhao Family one of the most influential families in Bishui County? Those girls from prestigious families are at odds with each other, so they suddenly got into bickering?”However, Sheng Lu shook his head and replied, “In this county, no prominent family is named after Zhao.”“That’s strange! When we came up here, and by a cursory glance I assume the more prestigious the guests in, the higher they will be accommodated in this Danmo

Seeing this, Sheng Weiqiao put down the curtain and turned around to Lvjin, "Go outside and warn our guards of this. That Miss Zhao knew we're outnumbered here and probably won't show up alone. She will bring someone with him. We need to be prepared for the uncertainties!"Lvjin agreed and went out to pass on the passage. Ao Luanxiao had a good temperament and did not like the idea of causing trouble. Seeing that she was ready to put on a fight, he got worried and said, "When she comes, we should be sensible and bury the hatchet!"His suggestion was not entirely based on fear. He continued, "That girl displayed a threatening manner, and it seems that she got someone powerful to back her up. If this happened in Nanfeng County, we would be okay. However, this is Bishui County, and Cousin Sheng as well as Brother Xu are not around. We didn't bring many guards with us. If she got more guards, I'm afraid we're in a disadvantaged situation."Because

Sheng Lu went to inquire about the situation, and Sheng Weiqiao and others listened to Meng Guihuan’s "Picking Mulberry" with full attention:"The dark red and purple were burning in full blossoms.Ignoring the ink robe, a sandalwood hairpin upwarped in the black hair.One branch was more exuberant than a spring apricot, like the burning fire.Since the glorious youth filled the branch, even white jade and gold were worthless compared with that!""After all, it took him some time to compose the poem, so it was better than "Genglouzi". After listening to the poem, Sheng Weiqiao said, "'a sandalwood hairpin upwarped in the black hair' was interesting. See its details. There are just a few messy petals of the ink lotus's petals, just like an ebony hairpin diagonally inserted through the hair. This sentence, along with the previous sentence, "Ignoring the ink robe" described a flirty and enchanting woman."Ao

Although they guessed that the winner had already been decided, after Shopkeeper Huan declared their pot of flowers as the winner, Sheng Weiqiao and her partners still laughed happily. Although Sheng Lu had prepared another pot of chrysanthemums, since the winner had been decided, they needn't send both pots onto the stage.After all, Sheng Weiqiao would not like to compose another poem.After the winner was declared, it was already at dusk. Sheng Weiqiao and her companions did not want to stay in Danmo Building longer. Also, they remembered the appointed time of the ship to set off. After ordering one to take the award, they packed three containers of delicious food. Then they bid a farewell to Shopkeeper Huan.Shopkeeper Huan had actually been very busy these days. However, to show his attitude of valuing Sheng Weiqiao and her companions, he escorted them to the door and had a small talk with them. After seeing them get into the carriage, he
Deceive me, Marry me Chapter 207 The Real Murderer
They didn't know if it was because they had many people here, or because the people behind the scenes didn't plan to kill them after killing the horse, there weren't any twists and turns, and everything went smoothly when they went out, went to the dock and went up to the boat.After getting on the boat, Sheng Weiqiao first instructed the cook on the boat to make some soothing decoction, and then ordered people to put aside the three food containers packed from the Danmo Building, "I thought you didn't go, so I brought some food back for you to have a taste. However, I just saw there was something wrong with the broken soothing decoction, so it's better not to eat these meals now."Sheng Shuihe and the others had no mood to study the food now. After all the irrelevant people left, he began to ask about the details of the attack."I guess it has something to do with what happened in the private room on the third floor!" Sheng Weiqiao told them t

"Fortunately, my sweetie and the other people are fine, so we can consider a long-term plan now." People in the cabin kept silent for a while, then Sheng Shuihe said slowly, "The top priority is to rush to Chang'an first to deal with the Spring Exam. After all, either Gaomi King or the Meng Family are both in a powerful position. We might still not be their opponents even we could become Jinshi. However, now we are just Juren, and we are even not qualified to strive for the justice of our sweetie!"The statement was justified, even Sheng Weiqiao, who was really angry, also secretly nodded. Then she took the lead and said, "I also agree that we should make a long-term plan. In fact, I'm more worried that Meng Guihuan will backstab you and do tricks in this the Spring Exam after her plan fails this time, which will jeopardize your future!"Hearing that, Ao Luanjing suddenly showed nervousness and stared at Sheng Shuihe without blinking. She wanted to exhort h
Deceive me, Marry me Chapter 209 Sister Weiqiao Fell From Heaven... the Roof？
That night, despite her bad mood, Sheng Weiqiao fell asleep early because she had been out for half a day and had somewhat got tired.In the middle of the night, she was awakened by the rain. She opened her eyes and looked out of the window. The wooden gold-plated jade palace lantern with flower and bird patterns besides the bed, which was used for lighting at night, was surrounded by a one-foot-high forty-fold gauze screen for fear that it would affect her sleep. Only hazy light leaked out.Between the shadows, she could only saw the darkness outside of the porthole. The rapid sound of rain seemed to beat on the hearts of the people by every bit and drop.The whole world seemed like under pouring rain at the moment.Maybe it was because the hull could not bear the beating of raindrops, or it just moved with the waves of the sea, that the shaking was rhythmed and slow while making people suffer from unspeakable boredom and anxiety
