2444 People from the Qin Estate
Just as she was lamenting the lack of dance, the pleasure boat opposite seemed to have heard her thoughts and sent out several dance courtesans. They started spinning behind the pipa player.
Qiao Mu tugged on her brocade cape when she saw these girls reveal their arms and legs in the cold wind.
It was so cold, yet those girls were singing and dancing on this open and spacious river in the freezing weather when they weren’t even cultivators. It truly wasn’t easy to make a living.
They had it so hard, yet no one was tipping them. The people were just listening and watching for free…
Qiao Mu shook her head and gave them a look of sympathy.
If someone was to see Qiao Mu’s expression now, they would certainly guffaw.
“Bravo!” Some dunce shouted bravo on the river. Lady Qiaoqiao poked out her small head from the railing and looked for the source of the voice.
From her angle, she really could only see a bunch of boats crowded together. She truly couldn’t see anything other than that.
However, it wasn’t necessary for her to continue looking.
The fellow who shouted bravo suddenly flew up into the air from who knows which boat. He landed on the deck of the pleasure boat opposite and lifted up the pipa player’s chin with his folding fan. He smiled sleazily, “Miss Meng is truly good at the pipa! I will offer one thousand spirit currency for Miss Meng to play pipa for me for a night!”
“Tsk, are you not ashamed to just offer one thousand spirit currency!”
“Miss Meng, I bid two thousand spirit currency!”
“I bid three thousand!”

One bid after another interrupted the bustling activity on the river. Everyone on the boats practically ran to their decks to watch the drama.
A middle-aged woman walked out from the pleasure boat opposite and pressed her hands downward to calm the crowd. Her steady voice drifted with the breeze. “To hear Miss Meng play a night of pipa music, bids must start at five thousand spirit currency!”
“F*ck, so black-hearted!”
“What is this Miss Meng’s background to demand such a price?”
“She is the lead courtesan of Wanhong Parlor. Her perfomance is naturally worth a high value.”
“Sigh, is that pleasure boat across from us the Qin Estate’s? That seems like the Qin Estate’s clan crest.”
“Right, right, right. It looks like the Qin Estate’s.”
After playing one song, Miss Meng stood up and curtsied to the crowd. She spoke tenderly and delicately, “Many thanks for all your favor. This humble girl is without talent and can only play the pipa at a passable level. This humble girl has heard that the Qin Estate’s fifth young sir is well versed in all the artistic accomplishments of a scholar. His mastery of the zither is said to tug at one’s heartstrings. This humble girl hopes to receive pointers from the fifth young sir.”
Everybody chuckled. “Miss Meng is being too modest.”
“Right, right. I just like listening to Miss Meng’s pipa music. It doesn’t pale in comparison to Fifth Young Sir Qin’s, right!”
“So it really is the Qin Estate’s pleasure boat. Fifth Young Sir Qin’s accomplishments in music is unparalleled in the world. How can Miss Meng compared to him?”
Seeing that people were just talking and the performance had ended, Qiao Mu continued lying on the railing disinterestedly. She intermittently tossed the pearls in her hands.
Suddenly, that Miss Meng yelped in surprise. It turned out that the young sir who had been the first to jump onto the deck and offered one thousand spirit currency had pulled her forcefully into his arms. This caused Miss Meng to shriek.
“I bid five thousand spirit currency.” That sleazy young man waved his hand with a smirk. “Miss Meng, your beau tonight will be me, You Fa.”
Qiao Mu, who had been lying lazily on the railing, abruptly narrowed her eyes. A dangerous aura exuded from her body…
