Chapter 120 Night Talk
At night, a bright moon hangs like a jade plate in the night sky over the canal.
Under the moonlit night, the river is shining and very charming.
On the deck, two nuns and the maids had already surrounded a large open space with curtains. There were two sets of tables and a few chairs placed on the open space, and even a thin blanket was spread on the open space.
Although it has entered late autumn in the north, it is still cold and you can wear a thin coat.
However, in the land of Jiangnan, it is the most comfortable month of the year.
It's neither hot nor cold. Even if it's slightly cool, it's refreshing and pleasant.
Daiyu sat alone, while Zijuan, Li Jing, and Xiangling sat at another table, watching the night view of the canal, drinking tea and laughing. Xueyan lost in the dice roll, so he had to work as a waiter to run errands tonight.
Vivian followed Jia Qiang and watched him grill fish and barbecue.
"Jia, you are so perfect... No, it's a pity that you don't know how to play a musical instrument, otherwise, you would be the most perfect lover in the world. But it doesn't matter, even if you don't know how to play a musical instrument, you are still my favorite lover."
Squatting beside the fire, Vivian held her fair face with dots in her hands, her green eyes reflected the firelight, becoming more like cat eyes. She looked at Jia Qiang and spoke in a strange tone.
At this time in the continent of Europe, any respectable man would have no face to see anyone without a few noble ladies as his lovers.
As for those noble ladies, it would be an insult to their status if they didn't wear a few skirts.
Jia Qiang naturally stayed away from such people.
The people in the curtain also started to curse:
"Don't be ashamed!"
"shameless!"
"Rakshasa ghost!"
Even Xiangling was unhappy and cursed in a low voice: "Xiao Lang Hoozi!"
Only Daiyu looked over there with a sneer while carefully tasting the delicious fresh river grilled fish, but did not speak.
If Jia Qiang was that kind of characterless, she wouldn't have taught him so much, let alone cooperated with him in a bookstore, huh.
As expected, Jia Qiang did not disappoint her, and she heard him smile and say: "Vivian, Dayan is a country of etiquette, which is different from your hometown. I am sorry that I am not blessed to receive your favor."
Vivian was not annoyed, but curled her lips and said: "Jia, this is not the first day I have come to Dayan, and I have seen many things. You Dayan people seem to be very polite on the surface, but secretly, all men want to find you."
Many, many lovers, even going to brothels. Girls, tsk tsk, I knew that the wife from Jinmen Town was dating the young nephew of the general."
Jia Qiang: "..."
Naturally, a group of girls spurned them again. Vivian was not ashamed but proud, and said happily: "What's the point? Human life is so short, and young time is even shorter. Why can't we...
What about enjoying the good things in life?”
Jia Qiang reminded: "What you are doing is not good in our opinion."
Vivian curled her lips and said: "Jia, you also have the same shortcomings as you Dayan men. Why do you think that you men can have many wives, but we women can't. You are only sixteen years old this year, and you already have two.
A beautiful concubine. Why can’t I have a lover like you?”
Jia Qiang was a little ashamed, but still shook her head and said: "I own them not only because I am greedy, but more importantly, I can protect them. Make them have enough food and clothing, let them live happily, and prevent injustices in the world from causing misfortune."
It happened to them. I will work hard for this, even at the cost of my life. This is the responsibility and responsibility that men must bear after enjoying their rights. And what you European women do will only make me feel humiliated. So, Wei
Wei An, it’s better for us to just be friends.”
Vivian said seriously: "Jia, if you are willing to be my lover, I don't have to look for other lovers. You are my first and only lover, and I am willing to be you..."
"I want to be your father!"
Jia Qiang interrupted unbearably.
"puff!"
Daiyu, who originally had a sneer on her face, heard this and spit out half of the fish bone she was chewing in her mouth. She leaned over the table and shook her thin shoulders vigorously.
Want... to be her father!
Li Jing, Xiangling, Zijuan, Xueyan and others were naturally laughing even more.
Vivian was a little annoyed when she heard this. She looked at Jia Qiang angrily and said, "Jia, you can't go too far. If you think like this, you are arrogant."
Jia Qiang: "..."
He stood up, handed the grilled fish to Xue Yan who was waiting aside, and then said to Vivian: "I mean, liking is a mutual thing. If one party doesn't like it and the other party forces it, it's like
I am your father, but you force yourself to like me. Vivian, I think this is not how you look for a lover even in Europa, right?"
Vivian was speechless, then smelled the strong aroma of grilled fish, shrugged and said: "Okay, you convinced me, but I won't give up like this... Jia, can you grill me a grilled fish?"
I'm hungry."
Jia Qiang sat down again and said, "You are my friend, of course you can."
Hearing this, Vivian looked at Jia Qiang's profile with her blue eyes quietly, without blinking, and sighed with regret: "It's a pity that God didn't want me to become an angel, so he put a dot on my face.
Many spots, otherwise..."
Jia Qiang was too lazy to pay attention. Fortunately, Li Jing came over and carried Vivian over.
But just as Vivian left, she saw Daiyu staggering over and sitting down. She looked at Jia Qiang and said with a half-smile, "Brother Qiang, are you planning to open your bookstore to Franji Country?"
Jia Qiang glanced at her helplessly, rolled the river fish in her hand, and said lightly: "It's not a bad idea. The people from Folangji can come to my dayan all the way, so what scruples do I have about not going to Folangji? Kou Ke
If I go, I will go again."
"Pooh!"
Daiyu couldn't help but laugh and said: "This is a famous saying of the Han Dynasty. They are to repel the Huns. What are you doing? Looking for a foreign woman to be your concubine?"
Jia Qiang chuckled, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and said, "Aunt Lin, do you know? The world is as big as ten times or a hundred times that of Dayan. Although Dayan is big and its rivers are beautiful, the soil is fertile.
The climate is actually not as pleasant as some overseas places. For thousands of years, many heroes and tyrants in the Central Plains Dynasty have fought for this land and raised millions of armies to kill each other. But no one has thought about breaking this shackles.
Go outside and take a look. Thousands of pitiful palaces have turned into dirt, and countless people’s bones have been buried.”
Daiyu suddenly heard these heavy words and was a little distracted for a moment. She looked at Jia Qiang with her starry eyes and murmured: "You...you still want to go out and conquer the world?" It seemed like a fantasy.
Jia Qiang chuckled and said: "What kind of world am I going to fight in? But it's okay to go out for a walk. Wouldn't it be better if we could open the bookstore overseas? There is more gold overseas than in Dayan."
Daiyu lowered her eyes, covering her black eyes that were clearer than the stars, and covered her feet wearing light cyan embroidered shoes, and covered the embroidered shoes with a light peach red brocade dress embroidered with tender yellow bamboo branches and flower buds, and asked softly: "Brother Qiang
, why do you like gold and silver so much?"
Jia Qiang glanced sideways at her and said with a smile: "I don't like gold and silver, but I like to use gold and silver. If I like gold and silver, it is easy to be captured by gold and silver, and become its puppet. I am obsessed with money. But I like to use gold and silver.
, because I can use gold and silver to do what I want to do. Aunt Lin, I have no parents to be filial to, and I have no siblings to be friendly with, and I don’t like extravagance by nature. Even now that I have two more people, Xiangling and Xiaojing, but
How much use can the two of them have? Therefore, the gold and silver I earn are not for enjoyment."
Hearing this, Daiyu raised her eyes and asked curiously: "Then what do you want to do?"
