A tailor shop at the end of Hutou Street in Zhangzhou City, the shopkeeper surnamed Liang, played a set of diligent and healthy five poultry plays in the backyard in the morning, and used the fried dough sticks and large bowls of vegetable porridge on the opposite street to open the shop door in good spirits.

Liang shopkeeper is also surnamed Liang with the master's family, and he is called Liang Er's abacus, not that Liang Er's abacus is playing well, but that this person has a lot of eyes, and the ghost idea is not finished, but fortunately, he has a good conscience, he is sincere to the main family, and the business is done gently, but there is a surplus every year, and the idea of poor prosperity can also be flattened.

There are so many streets in Zhangzhou, so many shops, and they are constantly rotated and eliminated all year round, but this one is in the middle and keeps one, and it has been opened steadily until now, and the skill of Liang Er's abacus can be seen.

But Liang Erabacus has been quite distressed these days, and a letter from the master's family was delivered a few months ago, saying that he asked him to keep an eye on the old and young people who passed through Zhangzhou to go to the capital, the old ones were in their forties, not tall, spoke official language, with a little Nanyang accent, and the younger ones were six or seven years old, a female doll.

Liang Er didn't guess the identities of the two people asked by the main family to inquire, and the servants of the Liang family in the capital arrived after him, and he lived until now.

Although Liang Er had no problem with the book, and knew that the people in the capital were not coming for him, he was still in a hurry.

The identity of the old servant and the young master is not a secret, five years ago, the Chen family's three-room concubine's obscure secret funeral was still used in the white linen and white silk in Liang Er's shop, I was afraid that there would be many people in Beijing, so I still sent the material from Zhangzhou to Beijing, and went to a temple on the edge of the capital to do a dull ritual.

Liang Er has never seen Chen Lu's family, but he is no stranger to her name, Lu Zhanyi, a native of Nanyang in the northwest, is not conspicuous in the capital, and is still a legendary young grandmother in the Zhangzhou business area.

Married into the Chen family at the age of fifteen, there were two wangpu under her hand, after two years, two wangpu became three, and after two years, three became five, and after another two years, no one knew how many she had in her hand.

Now that 20 years have passed, no one remembers that there was a Chen Lu family who stirred up the merchants in Puyang, Zhangzhou for a while, only that the Chen family's shops bloomed everywhere along the capital to Yangzhou in the south and Huailing in the north, and it faintly drove a business belt.

To say that there is no Chen Lu's handwriting behind this, Liang Er is unwilling to believe it.

Liang started in his twenties from running the hall, and has been immersed in this big dye vat all his life, the second room of the Chen family in the capital worships the official to the official department of Shangshu, the prince Shaobao, and almost entered the cabinet, is a well-known prince party, official, powerful, but has never heard of how big the Chen family's business is, but since Chen Lu's marriage in, the Chen family's business seems to be an old tree in spring, full of vitality.

It's a pity that there was a disaster six years ago, and the Chen Lu family, who was already hidden in the back house of the Chen family, still couldn't avoid it, and the strong man gave up everything he had accumulated over the years of entrepreneurship like a broken wrist, and left half of the dowry for the Chen family to take care of, so that he was able to return to the Chen family's old house with a pair of children to guard the grave.

These past events were all brought out of the capital by the Liang family's sons in the Chen Mansion, Liang Er sighed, and could vaguely guess the difficulties behind the Chen Lu family, and the jealousy of the Chen family who caused him to suffer.

A generation of strange women withered in the poor countryside of the Chen family's old mansion, and Liang Er felt heartache.

Although he is full of curiosity about this descendant of the Chen Lu family, Liang Erming dealt with the people from the capital on the face, but secretly he didn't bother to inquire, a little girl, found it, and it was not something he could afford to save, the Liang family and the Chen family searched for her so hard, I am afraid that Chen Lu's death is not so simple, and there must be something on that old servant that makes them dying.

It's best if their master and servant don't come, and when they come, Liang Er can only close his eyes, nose, and mouth, close his heart, and honestly send it to Jingli.

The people who were sent out a few days ago had already inquired that a couple of old and young people who were close to the description had indeed entered the Zhangzhou territory more than a few months ago, where they had landed, where they had gone, and who they had seen, but they could not find out.

There are all kinds of sayings, after all, the combination of an old woman with a little female doll is too common, all over the street, every day into the city and out of the city do not know how many, the city gate officials can not be one by one to judge the details of the details, even a sentence may not match, the city gate is open, day after day stubble stubble to let people in.

I'm afraid that he has already arrived in the capital, and the heart that Liang Er has been carrying for several days has steadily fallen back into his stomach, and the servants of the Chen Lu family must not be mortals, and I am afraid that they have already settled in the capital at this time, and they are just waiting for the right time to return to the house to recognize their relatives.

Liang Er yawned, stretched, lifted his feet into the shop, and left the Chen family's private affairs behind.

Hutou Street sweeps the stairs on the street, opens a shop, sells breakfast while shouting and serving food, busy but not chaotic, the white smoke of the steaming drawer billows out, the passing vendor who rushes to set up a stall sniffs, walks two steps and goes back to buy two hot buns and then go to the street to find a place to flatten the burden.

Xiao Er in the tailor's shop also bought a vegetarian bun to eat, and stuffed it into his mouth while wiping the table, and called the shopkeeper Liang to urge him twice, and he was hot after a while.

Xiao Er was not happy, "Shopkeeper, what are you yelling at?" This early in the morning, the happy co-chancellors in the trees have made you roar off your wings! ”

Liang Eryi snapped his eyes, "Xi Qiaozi? How many claws does Xiqiaozi have? Do you know? I can't even eat a bun, and I like Qiaozi, and the wings that fall off the Qiao Zi tell you to eat the bun! ”

When Xiao Er heard this, he was even more unhappy, pouting his mouth and shining hot bubbles, and slipped around the treetops at the door, "Yo, there is really a happy Qiaozi, hey!" Shopkeeper, look, there's really one! You see, I'm right! ”

Liang Er hurriedly stretched out his neck to take a look, looked at the shadow of a bird flying away, and said unconvinced, "I don't even have a bird's butt ......."

Xi Qiaozi is a little innocent, I'm sorry, I flew to the wrong house number, out of professionalism, I didn't let the owner look at my bird's buttocks, and flew away without saying a word.

Until the noon break, this Xiqiaozi never flew back, and it seems that he really reported the wrong home.

Liang Er stood in the counter, pulling the abacus beads, dialing them with his index finger, then pulling them along the line, touching the silk roll next to him, and then coming back to dial the beads.

Xiao Er's busy feet were about to fly, and he turned his head to see the shopkeeper playing with beads there, and he put his breath in his throat, I really saw the hell, how did I meet such a thing!

"This uncle, may I ask if this is the Liang family's shop?"

Liang Er's head shook, and he rarely stood up straight and looked around, looking for the source of the sound.

Xiao Er covered his face and pointed to the front of the counter with his big hand.

Liang Er looked around like a juggler on the stage, holding the counter and looking around, and finally walked out of the counter to look at the source of this "uncle", a small radish head with a bald brain, round eyes, pointed chin, and a male baby dress.

Liang Er chuckled in his heart, and said shamelessly, "Little brother, who are you looking for?" ”

"I'm looking for this shopkeeper." The little radish replied, his accent was not concealed at all, and he ignored the word "little brother" specially handed over by the middle-aged man without any scheming.

Liang second-hand sweated in his heart, his mouth was running, and his eyes were looking at the upstairs of the shop, "I am, what is the name of the little girl, which family, do you want to buy cloth or make clothes, how did the adults in the family tell you before they go out?" ”

The little radish head's eyes were clear and clear, "Shopkeeper, is this owner surnamed Liang, Chen Liang in the capital is my aunt, can you help me bring her a message?" The little radish head voice was a little hoarse that did not match his age, "My surname is Chen, and I am the eldest daughter of the second son of the third house of the Chen family, and my name is Chen Mintao." ”
