Zhang Shou asked Ah Liu to bring food in, but left it to Qi Liang, as for himself, of course, he would never be wronged.

Now that there are so many children of Guijie who are studying, he has built a bamboo house in the Cuiyun room as a small kitchen. Among the entourage brought by the children of each noble family, in order to satisfy the appetite of the master, all of them have a good hand who can work part-time as a cook, and one of the most common things to do every day is to deliver all kinds of delicacies to him and Zhu Ying.

It is fake to please him, but it is true to please Zhu Ying, the eldest lady of Zhao Guogong's Mansion.

On the evening of this day, Qi Liang quietly went home with an empty food box, and in the Shui Bo Buxing Pavilion, Zhan Jin carried a three-layer large food box to Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying with a smile as usual.

"Today, the cook who delivered the meal had a blue nose and swollen face, and it seemed that he had a fight with someone in order to deliver this meal. He quietly stuffed me with a jade pendant and begged me to tell my husband that my young master would come over later. ”

Zhang Shou saw that the quicksilver that came after him was busy putting the same dishes in the food box on the small square table, so he asked with a smile: "Who is the young master of his own family that he is talking about?"

Zhan Jin suddenly chuckled: "There are so many cooks, I still have an impression if he came here as he is, but he has been beaten into a pig's head, how can I recognize it." Since I can't recognize him, I naturally don't know who his young master is!"

"I actually picked up a jade pendant for nothing!" Zhu Ying couldn't help laughing, "You girl is too bad!"

"Miss, it's just a worthless thing, maybe you can buy two for one or two pieces of silver!" Zhan Jin said and spread out his palms in front of Zhang Shou, and then said with a disgusted face, "Sir, look at this color!"

Zhang Shou saw that the master and maid were laughing and did not forget to bring themselves, and couldn't help laughing, but at this time, the quicksilver laughed and drove away Zhan Jin, and sent a small plate to him, it was the braised pig's trotters that he had moved a few more chopsticks, and he could only quickly raise his hand to signal that he didn't have to serve.

When he didn't squint and solved the meal as quickly as possible, he thought about how to suggest that Zhu Ying and the three of them go back.

But before he could speak, Zhu Ying stood up and smiled at him proudly: "They came to me before, but if you come secretly to ask you and are bumped into by me, then it is not that your face is gone, but that your lining is also gone!" I will tell Zhu Hong or Zhu Yu to turn around and quietly stay nearby just in case, and now I will go back with Zhan Jin and Liuyin first!"

"Tomorrow, I'll ask you what good ideas you have come up with!"

Seeing that the eldest lady said to leave, Zhang Shou couldn't help but wonder: "Aren't you afraid that I will pull your tiger skin to make a banner?"

"That's okay!" Zhu Ying smiled with crooked eyebrows, not taking it seriously, "I originally brought people in your name, and now you are perfunctory to them in my name, then I finally didn't get into trouble." ”

Seeing that Zhan Jin and Liuyin also packed up the food box and prepared to follow Zhu Ying, the three of them did not drag their mud and water at all, Zhang Shou only felt that their free and easy temper was really his appetite, but then he laughed to himself.

He said today that others were empty-handed, but he was actually talking about himself, but the eldest lady didn't seem to hear it at all!

Not long after Zhu Ying walked on her front feet, after she was full of food, Zhang Shou, who was slowly pacing in the house, heard a squirming movement outside, followed by a very soft voice.

"Sir, may I come in?"

It was not Lu Sanlang, and of course it was not the blessed Zhang Chen, this voice he remembered was Zhang Chen's follower, Zhang Wu, the fifth son of Zhang Hanzhou, Marquis of Nanyang!

"Come in!" The next moment, Zhang Shou saw Zhang Wu quickly rushing into the house.

Sweeping around, it seemed that they found that this wide bamboo house was in full view, Zhu Ying and the others really didn't see anyone, Zhang Wu immediately knelt down and said, "Sir, I'm here to ask for advice." ”

Seeing that Zhang Shou was not surprised, Zhang Wuqiang couldn't help but feel apprehensive, and said in a low voice: "I am the fifth in the family, and I am a concubine, my mother died early, and my father treats me as dispensable, and I can hardly talk about the future." The reason why I followed Zhang Chen was that I hoped that he would help me get married. But Mr. woke up the dreamer with a word, I have already woken up, just a good family, what can I help?"

He paused, then took a deep breath and said: "I can't do anything, I've been spending sixteen years in vain, and I don't know what I can do in the future, let alone where the road ahead is, please teach me!"

Zhang Shou immediately lowered his head when he saw that the person finished speaking, as if he was going to knock his head on the ground with a heavy bang, so he slapped the armrest without hesitation: "Sit up straight!"

Zhang Wu subconsciously sat up straight, and then saw Zhang Shou take off his hat and veil. When he saw that unearthly young face, he only felt that his head was completely blank for a moment.

Isn't it an old gentleman?

"If you want to do something, you must first straighten the backbone in your heart! Are there so many high-ranking officials and ministers in the court, all of them are from noble backgrounds? No, many people are poorer than you when they are young, more miserable than you, more depressed than you, and more embarrassed than you!"

Directly poured a few words of chicken soup straight down, and without waiting for Zhang Wu to react, Zhang Shou said word by word: "You chose to follow Zhang Chen in the past, undoubtedly hoping to have the support of nobles." And he stayed to study and did not forget to give you a piece of cultivation, which shows that at least you have you in his heart. However, he himself has not planned for the future, and what he can give you is at most a good family affair. ”

"But what kind of family affairs are not bad, and what kind of family affairs are really suitable for you? Are there still few in-laws who tear each other down? What kind of virtue are those famous families in the capital, you should know very well, it is easy to give up a daughter, let alone give up a son-in-law!"

"What you need is not an in-law, but a noble person who is willing to support you and support you, such a noble person is more reliable than relatives. And such a noble man needs you to show all your abilities in front of him! Think about it yourself, do you really have nothing? You have the courage and courage to be the first to come here, and this alone is stronger than the others!"

Zhang Wu suddenly forgot Zhang Shou's age and identity, and was completely immersed in Zhang Shou's words, and then subconsciously asked: "Dare to ask sir, where did such a noble person come from?"

"Far away, close at hand!"

Seeing Zhang Wu's eyes widen, as if he was thinking about what kind of noble person Zhang Shou was, Zhang Shou smiled slightly.

"You have appeared so many times in front of the eldest lady, do you think that she is not a nobleman? She is noble-born, upright, daring, coming and going to the palace like entering the house, and traveling extensively, in the past, it was only because of her father and brother in front of her, so others can only see her arrogance and willfulness, and cannot see her advantages. But you should be able to!"

Until he left the Shuibo Buxing Pavilion after talking with Zhang Shou for a long time, Zhang Wu was still a little confused, but with the cool breeze blowing in the night, he suddenly woke up, only to feel that the words were still in his ears, and the whole person was very excited all of a sudden.

Standing on Zhu Ying's side, nonsense, he didn't think that those rumors outside would affect Zhao Guogong Zhu Jing at all, otherwise how could he follow Zhang Chen to chase here? Compared to his father, who didn't take him seriously at all, the Zhu family's backer was too hard!

Zhu Ying is the daughter of Zhao Guogong, although they chase after them on weekdays, but they can't climb high at all, why don't they agree now?

As for the old gentleman, who was actually too young and handsome...... It must be Zhao Guogong's henchman buried in the shadows to assist Zhu Ying!

Zhang Wu got up, and then, there was an endless stream of visitors in the Shui Buxing Museum. Each visitor is to let his henchmen stay outside, quietly enter by themselves to ask about the future, and when they come out, they are either preoccupied, or depressed, or happy, or full of energy.

So, those who secretly observed, and were still hesitating to ask the old gentleman for advice, eventually gradually joined the ranks.

It's just that everyone is careful to stagger with the previous one, which makes it difficult for those followers who look out for the wind. They must first see the right time to open the way for their master and grab a decent priority, so that they can send people into the Shui Bo Buxing Pavilion.

When the sky gradually revealed the whiteness of the fish's belly, he almost didn't close his eyes all night, all of them were Zhang Shou, who was a confidant there, and looked at Zhang Chen, who was alive and vibrant, and finally resigned, he quickly yawned several times.

The visitors throughout the night were divided into three categories.

The first type is Zhang Wu, who is not from a high background, neglected by his family, and feels hesitant and confused about the future, but at the same time is willing to fight, and has a certain consciousness and ability, he showed his true colors and recruited Zhu Ying. Such a kind of person, as long as they give some support and opportunities, they are likely to be independent in the future and will not waste resources.

The second type is Zhang Chen, who is conceited and arrogant, but has a low eye, he poured a bunch of officialdom thick black secret books and chicken soup for the soul to people, dialed them out in an unfathomable way, and then sent people back. Of course, among the children of Guijie who chased Zhu Ying here, there were relatively few such people, and there were only two of them plus Zhang Chen.

The third category is Lu Sanlang, who firmly believes that I am born to be useful, and does have some talents and talents. Such a person, he also recruited on behalf of Zhu Ying, but the true face is forgotten, and people who are too smart are not so easy to deter and fool.

Stretching a big lazy waist, Zhang Shou looked up at the roof, and suddenly asked thoughtlessly: "I remember that the eldest lady said before leaving, she would send someone over just in case, is there anyone on the roof or outside?"

It took a long time for him to hear Zhu Hong's familiar hesitant voice: "Shou Gongzi has something?"

Zhang Shou smiled and said casually: "I'm fine here, you go back and tell the eldest lady what you saw and heard tonight." Let's just say, I've recruited a bunch of people for her, and if she's angry, then come to me to settle accounts!"
