7. Chapter 007 Two and a Half Pieces

Full Moon frowned and came up, her expression a little solemn: "The slave is looking for someone to check." ”

"Check it, but if you can't find it, forget it."

There is a purple bamboo outside the window, which Xie Fu raised not long ago, and there are indeed a few mud marks on the slightly moist ground.

Someone had just left from here, presumably from the corner of the wall.

Xie Fu went through what the two had just said in his mind, and he didn't find anything wrong, so he paced back.

"Turn around and ask people to watch the courtyard gate, don't run in with any cats and dogs."

"Yes."

The full moon answered, but this time it didn't close the window, but opened it widely.

On the garden path outside the high house.

The maid Lingyu was in a hurry, and when she looked back from time to time, her heart was still pounding.

She walked around the garden before returning to the East Chamber.

In the east chamber lives the only concubine of Gao Gong, and Gao Miaozhen's room is in the second room on the right.

Lingyu stepped forward and pushed the door open, entered the house, and quickly turned around and closed the door.

Gao Miaozhen was playing with the string of silver bells on her wrist, thinking of the scene in her high-arched study, and she couldn't help but feel hatred.

Suddenly she heard the sound of the door opening, and she raised her eyes to look: "Lingyu? ”

Lingyu is the maid by Gao Miaozhen's side, and she has always been quite trusted.

Why are you panicking at this time?

"What's wrong?"

"Miss, I ...... just now" Lingyu was in a hurry for a while, didn't care much, came up and spoke in Gao Miaozhen's ear, muttering a few words.

Gao Miaozhen's eyes widened and her mouth grew long.

"What, she's going to have a lover?!"

"Miss, be quiet, don't let people hear it."

Lingyu just stopped by chance, and heard Xie Fu's master and servant talking, and she didn't understand what they were talking about for a long time, but she could hear it clearly.

Gao Miaozhen stood up and paced around the room, the bell on her wrist swaying gently with her footsteps, making a "jingle bell" sound.

The divine light in Gao Miaozhen's eyes gradually became sinister.

She gritted her teeth slightly: "Grandfather is always looking at her, she can get what I can't get." Now she dares to do such a thing that corrupts the lintel, how can she be worthy of our family? ”

The slave didn't expect that Miss Biao would be so in private when she looked at the inspection. What can you do if the news gets out? ”

After all, a family can be regarded as a combination of honor and disgrace.

Lingyu said: "I have to think of a way to take a good look at her when I go back." ”

"Look at her? Why watch her? ”

Gao Miaozhen smiled, pinched her wrist, and stood there, looking sweet.

Lingyu looked up in surprise.

Gao Miaozhen said: "Not only will I not look at her, but I will also condone her." In this family, she is just an outsider, why did she step on my head?! This time, I want to tell everyone to keep their eyes open and see clearly who is the girl of the Gao family! Just an outsider can't affect my reputation. ”

Lingyu understood, and gasped.

Gao Miaozhen is a rather stingy person, but she hasn't messed with Xie Fu explicitly, what happened this time?

Lingyu still needs to be persuaded again, feeling that this is not good for Gao Miaozhen herself.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside.

"What's going on?" Gao Miaozhen frowned.

In the front yard, the subordinates all went out.

The housekeeper Gao Fu stood at the door of the main house, looked at it from a distance, and only felt strange.

The servant came up to report: "Scholar Zhang's Mansion has sent someone to say that there is something to present to Miss Biao." ”

"Zhang University Scholar's Mansion?"

Well, did you hear me right?

Gao Fu couldn't believe it, he thought for a while: "Send someone to invite Miss." ”

"Yes."

The subordinate trotted away, and Gao Fu frowned and walked forward.

Xie Fu also heard a commotion outside in the house, and was about to call someone to inquire, but he didn't expect the little girl Xi'er to run in.

"Girl, girl, the housekeeper just called someone to come and say that there was someone sent by the Zhang University Scholar's Mansion and something to present to you."

"Which house?"

Xie Fu suspected that he had misheard, and glanced at the surprised full moon.

Xi'er tilted her head: "Scholar Zhang's Mansion." ”

Isn't that Zhang Lizhu and their family?

It's strange that there is something to present to yourself.

Full Moon helped her get up and straightened the folds on her sleeves: "It's probably a weasel giving New Year's greetings to chickens, and I didn't have a lot of kindness." ”

"It's okay, let's take a look."

Xie Fu didn't mind what he was going to do over there, please go out by yourself, just go by yourself.

With great fanfare, it is on the territory of Gaofu, and Zhang Lizhu's means are average, even if she is capable, she can't make any waves.

Xie Fu took the maid to the front hall with confidence.

The two housekeepers sent by the Zhang University Scholar Mansion were waiting in the front hall at the moment.

The family outside said, "Miss is here." ”

The housekeeper Gao Fu hurriedly straightened up, cheered up, and saw Xie Fu walking in the door, so he bowed: "Say hello to Miss." ”

"You're welcome, get up."

The two rows of chairs were lined up in the hall as usual, and Xie Fu walked over and sat down with the first one on his right hand.

The speed at which the maid serves tea is also very fast, which is called a neat and clean and generous.

When the two mothers-in-law saw it, they didn't dare to slack off.

Originally, they were a little apprehensive when they were sent over, but now they knew that Xie Fu's status in the Gao Mansion was really as rumored, so they hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

The two of them were blessed together.

"Old slaves, please say hello to Miss Cousin."

After saying that, the housekeeper Gao Fu frowned without a trace, and he didn't like these two mothers-in-law in his heart.

Can a good life called "Miss" die?

I don't have the ability to see it.

Xie Fu lifted his eyelids and glanced at it, one was fatter and wore red; One was thinner, dressed in green, and held a long box of rosewood in his hand.

One fat and one thin, one red and one green, it is a good match.

Both of them looked a little apprehensive, thinking that today's trip was not a good errand.

She didn't speak.

The lady in charge of the red lady of the Zhang University Mansion took a step forward and lowered her head to explain her intentions.

"Miss Biao went to the birthday banquet held by our young lady yesterday and made a bid at the charity fundraising. But you left in a hurry, but you didn't take the scroll with you. Our young lady remembered it today, and sent the old slave to send it to the young lady. ”

As he spoke, he took the long box from the hands of the mother-in-law beside him and raised his hands up.

Bid?

Xie Fu made a price at Zhang Lizhu's birthday banquet.

She raised her eyebrows, she had already figured it out.

Zhang Lizhu couldn't help but know about that incident too quickly, and someone who understood it told her that she had sent things over so neatly today.

Xie Fu picked up the tea, pointed his finger, and the full moon got the letter, stepped forward, and took the things.

"It's hard for Miss Zhang's family to have a heart, and she still remembers my girl."

Full Moon said, turning sideways and naturally lifting the box, and there was a scroll lying in it.

When I opened it, I saw the one I saw at the banquet yesterday.

Full Moon looked at Xie Fu, waiting for her instructions.

The butler Gao Fu was already glaring from the side.

Yesterday, Xie Fu was only willing to bid three copper plates for Zhang Lizhu's painting, which has spread all over the capital, making Zhang Lizhu lose face.

At present, there are many people waiting for these two masters to pinch up, and they can't wait to see them fighting in the Bailu Pavilion.

Unexpectedly, it was only one night later, and Zhang Lizhu actually sent the painting back.

God, it's not a matter of silver or silver.

It's a matter of face!

What's more, Xie Fu was not the only one who bid that day, the rule is that the highest bidder wins, if this painting is finally given to Xie Fu, how to explain it to others?

Zhang Lizhu shouldn't be so confused.

What Gao Fu can think of, Xie Fu can also think of.

She didn't move, and bowed slightly to the two: "Thank you for me." ”

The full moon then understood that the girl had accepted it, and she rolled it up and put it back in the box.

The two mothers-in-law didn't leave, and the one who spoke just now took out a purse and carefully took out something.

"My young lady still has something to bring to her young lady. She said that her painting was clumsy and deserved your appreciation, and that the three copper plates were too expensive and too valuable. The young lady and the old slave waited for two and a half to return. ”

After speaking, the mother-in-law palms up, and raised her hands in front.

In the palm of her hand, there were two Longqing Tongbao, but the other was cut off, and only half of it was kept.

Two and a half copper coins, to be returned to Xie Fu.

“……”

Everyone was stunned.

It was also said earlier that the three copper plates were too deceitful, and in a blink of an eye, it was said that Xie Fu had lifted the three copper plates.

That's not all, I even have to return two and a half pieces.

This means that in fact, my Zhang Lizhu's painting is only worth half a copper plate!

Did the girl of the Zhang family take the wrong medicine for a stroke last night?

The front hall had already been blown up quietly by this muffled thunder, and everyone was speechless for a while.

Even Xie Fu didn't expect that Zhang Lizhu would be able to press his posture so low.

She was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted.

There was a little smile on his lips unconsciously, and Xie Fu's words were quite warm: "Sister Lizhu is also a wonderful person, and she has a heart." Full moon, take it. ”

The full moon didn't know what to say, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he stepped forward to take the two and a half copper plates from his mother-in-law's hand.

The hearts of the two mothers-in-law finally fell halfway.

Yesterday, there was a lot of commotion in Zhang Fuzhong, and Miss Lizhu was unhappy about Xie Fu's bid.

But later, when the old man returned to the house and heard the news, he called Miss Lizhu over and talked for a while.

When she came out, Miss Lizhu's whole body was like wilting, and she hatefully cut all the flowers and trees in the garden with scissors.

Zhang Lizhu was mad with anger.

How could she have thought that Xie Fu had dug a pit waiting for her to jump?

Three copper plates, it is light to say, Feng Baoke only got one copper plate at the beginning!

Now in the inner palace, Feng Bao said that he was the second leader, but Zhang Lizhu knew that Zhang Juzheng had a lot of relationship with Feng Bao, and when Feng Bao was strong, he had to overpower the palm print eunuch and rush over.

If he really dared to stand up to the three copper plates that Xie Fu had taken out, needless to say, with Feng Bao's eccentric, gloomy and elusive temperament, he might not be able to cause something to happen when he turned around.

Not to mention, grandfather called himself into the study and talked for a while.

Zhang Lizhu is not stupid, so he arranged today's play.

Xie Fu thought that it would be enough for Zhang Lizhu to do this.

The first to send the painting was to Xie Fu, which bowed his head to Xie Fu and admitted that her bid was the most "high" in the audience. Three times the size of Feng Bao's paintings, how can it not be high?

The second returned two and a half copper plates, which was told to Feng Bao from afar: the little girl was not talented enough and did not dare to compare with Feng Gonggong, and the little girl only felt that her paintings were worth half a penny. As for the three copper plates, it's not me who bids, you go to Xie Fu.

I did everything from beginning to end, but I offended the rich children and ladies who were bidding and lost face.

If Xie Fu is Zhang Lizhu, after doing the first two things, he has to do one more thing to save face.

It's complicated to think about, and it's just a snap of your fingers.

Xie Fu looked at the two mothers-in-law and said with a smile: "Now I sent the painting first, and then I returned two and a half cents." Your young lady must have arranged a third thing, right? It's better to talk about it together. ”

The two mothers-in-law were startled and their eyes widened.

One blurted out: "One more thing, how do you know?" ”

Could it be that Xie Fu has eyes and ears in Zhang's Mansion, and he is like a god?

Xie Fu was not shocked and smiled slightly: "Is there one?" ”

"Yes."

The woman forcibly suppressed the shock in her heart, answered hard, took out a gilded invitation with a few reeds painted on a white background and blue from her sleeve, stepped forward, bent over respectfully, and presented it to Xie Fu.

"Little Miss instructed, the third thing is to send this invitation to you, and Miss Cousin will accept it."

Xie Fu lowered his eyes, and there were three big words written on the post:

Hakushikan.
