He Linwan was not polite to Zhao Qingqing, walked over and sat down and said, "I thought you were too busy to disturb, but I didn't expect you to hide here." ”

Zhao Qingqing was debunked, so he simply threw away the account book in his hand, sat up from the couch, and complained half-truthfully: "I heard that you entered the palace before, I thought you were going to marry into the same palace as Xiang'er, and I still have some regrets in my heart." Since Xiang'er became the fourth princess, it is difficult for me to see her, you are my only second friend, I don't want you to enter the cage made by the palace. ”

He Linwan thought that he might not have seen Yuan Xiang for a long time, and he was a little worried in his heart, but he heard Zhao Qingqing say with interest: "But which high-ranking family is not a cage? That's it, I can't stop you from marrying and having children one by one. ”

He Linwan didn't argue, but asked with a smile: "Sister Zhao, what about you, don't marry and have children?"

"Me?" Zhao Qingqing waved his hand and said with a smile, "Forget it." ”

Zhao Qingqing got up and stayed down, pushed open the window on the south side, and the noisy sound on Zhengyang Street became much clearer all of a sudden, Zhao Qingqing leaned on the window and listened for a while, and said to He Linwan with a smile: "I just like the sound of the market, it is so lively and lively, and it is reassuring to listen to." ”

Zhao Qingqing simply sat down by the tea table in front of the window, and beckoned to He Linwan again, "Come and sit, please drink tea." ”

He Linwan got up and sat opposite Zhao Qingqing.

Zhao Qingqing didn't ask the maid to come in to serve, he picked out a can of tea from the several tea cans placed on the tea table, lifted the copper kettle on the small red clay stove, and skillfully washed the tea and made tea.

"Actually, if you don't come today, I will send someone to invite you. ”

He Linwan was a little surprised, "Sister Zhao has something to do with me?"

Zhao Qingqing nodded, her tone casual, "Yes, I have something to ask you for." ”

He Linwan took the tea handed over by Zhao Qingqing, and said with a smile: "With your cup of tea, I will definitely help with this favor." ”

Zhao Qingqing looked at He Linwan and said, "You promised so happily, aren't you afraid that I will cheat you?"

He Linwan shook his head and said with a smile: "If it were someone else, I would definitely be afraid, if it was Sister Zhao, I would not be afraid, who made me your only friend? ”

Zhao Qingqing was stunned, then couldn't help laughing, and finally stopped laughing, she stretched out her finger and gently tapped He Linwan's nose and sighed: "No wonder so many people like you, Ah Wanyi, you are really likeable." ”

Zhao Qingqing took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears that came out of his accidental laughter, "Don't worry, I won't ask you to do bad things." I know that your mother's shop has business dealings with Donglin, and wants to borrow your line to transport some things into Beijing every month, and we will settle the accounts according to the market price of the manpower and material resources consumed. ”

He Linwan didn't think about it and bowed his head, "Okay." ”

In fact, the Zhao family itself is in business, whether it is in the capital or in the east There are shops, and there will be no shortage of transactions between them, and it stands to reason that He Linwan does not need to help transport any goods, but He Linwan didn't ask anything.

Zhao Qingqing stroked the teacup and took the initiative to explain: "I want to avoid the eyes and ears of some people, and I don't want to use the Zhao family's doorway. ”

He Linwan comforted Zhao Qingqing and said: "Sister Zhao, don't worry, the mouth under me is very tight, and I will never leak any news." ”

Zhao Qingqing smiled at He Linwan, and without thanking her, she lifted the small copper kettle to fill the tea cup for her.

Next, the two chatted casually while drinking tea, and the atmosphere was very casual and casual.

He Linwan was chatting with Zhao Qingqing about the marriage between Princess Chunyang and Jialan, and inadvertently glanced out the window, and his voice couldn't help but stop.

Zhao Qingqing raised her eyebrows, followed He Linwan's line of sight, and found that several young men dressed as sons of the family were dismounting at the door of her teahouse.

Zhao Qingqing recognized that the young men were all from prominent families and had some talents in their own right.

"Recently, the scholars in Beijing have been very active, and there are scholars in my teahouse every day to meet friends with literature. This group of nerds is really troublesome, relying on their own knowledge to look down on the fun of our ordinary people, the storyteller in my store said a history of the former government and the opposition, was pointed out more than a dozen mistakes, and was so angry that he refused to come. But now these sons who come in are quite low-key, and they came once the day before yesterday, but they just asked for a private room to talk about books and paintings behind closed doors, and they didn't stir up trouble much. ”

He Linwan came back to his senses and smiled, "The one in front of me wearing a blue shirt is my grandmother's cousin. ”

He Linwan was a little surprised to meet Wei Jiyan here, but it was not Wei Jiyan who attracted his attention, but the young man in his early twenties who walked side by side with Wei Jiyan and had an elegant temperament.

Zhao Qingqing glanced downstairs again when he heard this, and these scholars handed over the horses to the guys who greeted them, and they were walking into the teahouse while laughing.

"The one standing with your cousin is the son of the Fan family who only returned to Beijing not long ago, right?" Zhao Qingqing said with a smile, "The few articles he wrote recently have been copied by scholars, and he can be said to have become famous. ”

He Linwan smiled, lowered his eyes and said, "The grandson taught by Fan Ge Lao himself is naturally not comparable to ordinary people. ”

The children of the Fan family are very low-key and rarely have a reputation, but He Lin heard his grandfather mention it before that several sons of the Fan family are quite talented, but Fan Yun was worried that they would be burdened by fame when they became famous at a young age, so he pressed them not to come out.

The one who just came in with Wei Jiyan is the grandson of the Fan family, named Fan Liangbi, who is Fan Lanruo's brother and the leader of his generation.

He Linwan thought that the descendants of the Fan family would inevitably go on a high scale in the future with their talents and the help of the family, but his third brother, whose qualifications were not inferior to Fan Liangbi, fell into the mud and had nowhere to come out.

The anger that has been suppressed over the years has been rapidly fermented in He Linwan's heart, and the energy is rampage but can't find an exit, He Linwan picked up the tea cup in front of him and drank it in one gulp, and forced it down with the bitterness of the tea.

Zhao Qingqing glanced at He Linwan, "You wasted my good tea." ”

That being said, Zhao Qingqing poured He Linwan another cup, and said with a gentle smile: "But fortunately, I open a teahouse, and I lack everything, but there is no shortage of good tea, and I don't feel sorry for how many cups you waste." ”

He Linwan put away the emotions that almost couldn't help but let go, and smiled at Zhao Qingqing, "You don't feel sorry for me, but you feel sorry for you, you have grievances and revenge, what kind of hero is taking tea to get angry?"
