Master is in his forties, and he has a long way to go. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info so in his opinion, the distance of dozens of miles is not too far.

We set off at noon, and after noon, we came to the house of Master's friend.

There is a plaque hanging above the ink-painted gate, inscribed with the two big characters "Zhuo Fu". Master told me on the way that this friend of his, surnamed Zhuo, was a master of music and rhythm.

The door was open, and a valet stood in front of it. When he saw me and Master coming over, he respectfully saluted Master and said, "Is this Mr. Bai?" ”

"Exactly. I'm here to visit your master. The master gestured to me again and said, "This is my apprentice." ”

"Please, both." The manservant stepped aside and raised his hand to make an invitation.

As soon as Master and I entered the door, he followed behind us on the right side to guide us. Although the courtyard of the Zhuo family is not large, it is very elegant.

We entered a courtyard gate, but in the middle of the courtyard there was a small pond, and in the middle of the pond there was a small stone mountain, on which flowers and plants grew, separating the view from the inside.

Bypassing the pond, you will see a large hall, which must be the hall for the reception.

The manservant took us to the hall, invited us to sit down, and said that he would go and invite Master Zhuo over.

After a while, a maid came and brought us tea.

Along the way, I was indeed a little thirsty, so I took a few sips of tea. While he was drinking, he heard footsteps coming from the inner room. But it's not the footsteps of a man.

I put down the teacup and glanced casually, and out of the door of the inner room came a middle-aged man over half a hundred years old, followed by a young woman with a graceful figure, and then a young man in the back.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Brother Bai Xian, you are finally here." ”

Master had already stood up, and I naturally stood up with him, and I followed Master to salute the middle-aged man.

The master said: "Brother Zhuo is kindly invited, how can I not come?" ”

"Please take a seat." Master Zhuo raised his hand and said.

Master and I sat down again, with Master Zhuo sitting on the main seat, and the young woman and young man who followed him also sat down.

Master Zhuo raised his hand to signal the young woman and introduced, "This is the old man's only daughter, Xian Xian. ”

With that, the woman named "Xian Xian" stood up, bowed to the master, and said, "I've seen sir." ”

The voice is sweet and soft, very pleasant. Take a closer look at her face, a thin melon seed face, two curved light moon eyebrows, a pair of affectionate eyes, grease on the face, and Dan on the lips. is a beautiful beauty.

Master invited her to sit down. Master Zhuo pointed to the young man and introduced, "This is the old man's disciple, surnamed Liang, and his name is Feiyi. ”

The young man stood up, saluted the master, and said, "Xiao Sheng has seen sir. ”

I looked up at him, only to see that the man in front of me was an acquaintance.

He is the same son that Master and I met not long ago, that is, "Xiao Lang".

The master obviously remembered this as well, and he was a little surprised, and said, "It turned out to be you, Childe?" I remember we met on the road not long ago, do you remember? ”

The son-in-law surnamed Liang said: "Xiao Sheng remembers that Xiao Sheng asked Mr. for directions at that time. When he entered the hall, Xiao Sheng had already recognized Mr., but he was afraid that he would be abrupt, so he didn't recognize him in time. ”

Master Zhuo was pleasantly surprised: "I didn't expect you to meet on the road, this is a coincidence." ”

"That's it." Master said with a smile.

After Liang Gongzi sat down, the master pointed to me and introduced, "This is the disciple of the junior, Zhu Wan." ”

Because I was still thinking about this Liang Gongzi, I didn't react for a while.

The master said again: "Ah Zhu, haven't you seen Mr. Zhuo soon?" ”

I came to my senses, hurriedly stood up, saluted, and said, "Xiaosheng Zhu Wan, I have seen Mr." ”

Liang Gongzi on the side said: "Presumably, the son who walked with Mr. Bai that day was Zhu Gongzi." ”

His gaze swept over, and there was a little doubt and surprise in his eyes.

When I was in Changle Building before, I met him, and he also praised me for the plum blossoms on my fan. Now he looks at me like this, I guess it's because he still remembers me.

I replied, "It's Xiaosheng." ”

Mr. Zhuo motioned for me to sit down, and I sat down.

Master said to Master Zhuo: "Yuelu Academy is lecturing, why didn't Brother Zhuo go?" ”

Master Zhuo smiled and said, "I'm going, but the mansion is not far from the academy, and I don't lecture there every day, so I plan to wait for a while." ”

The master said, "There are a lot of gentlemen invited by the academy this time, and almost all the families and factions have arrived, why don't Brother Zhuo go and have a look first?" ”

Master Zhuo waved his hand and said with a smile: "The old man is old, and he doesn't want to join in the fun." Besides, when these various families and factions get together, they will inevitably teach a sect to be superior, and when the time comes, there will be disputes, and I can't compete with others. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole room burst into laughter.

At this time, a maid walked in from outside the hall, and Fu Li said, "Master, the kitchen has prepared all the meals." ”

Master Zhuo nodded, waved her hand to go down first, and then said to the master: "Noon was delayed due to some things, and now I am busy with lunch, calling the virtuous brother a joke." I don't know if Brother Xian and Zhu Gongzi have had lunch? If you have used it, please go to the table and have a glass of wine. In the evening, I will catch the wind for the virtuous brother. ”

The master said, "It's just right, the juniors haven't had lunch yet." Brother Zhuo and I are old acquaintances, just have a light meal, if it is to catch the wind, the younger generation can not afford it. ”

Master Zhuo was surprised and delighted, and said, "Brother Xian and Master Zhu, please hurry." ”

Master and I stood up, and the three of them left our seats and walked out of the living room and into the dining room. Master and Master Zhuo chatted all the way. I walked behind with the lady of the Zhuo family, Zhuo Xianxian, and Liang Gongzi.

On the way, Liang Gongzi said: "I met Zhu Gongzi in the theater last time, I don't know if Zhu Gongzi still remembers this?" ”

I smiled back and said, "Yes." He asked again: "Liang Gongzi came to Tanzhou this time to visit Mr. Zhuo?" ”

He said: "I happened to catch up with Yuelu Academy to invite gentlemen and everyone to give lectures, and I also want to take this opportunity to ask my seniors for knowledge." Then he asked me, "Is this why Zhu Gongzi is here?" ”

"Yes." I nodded.

Zhuo Xianxian, who was walking on the other side, muttered to Liang Gongzi: "Senior brother, you and Zhu Gongzi can go to the academy, but I can't go there." Then he sighed, "Who called me a daughter?" ”

Liang Gongzi said, "I have already given you an idea, but isn't my sister unwilling?" ”

Zhuo Xian Xing's eyes were round, and she said angrily: "Senior brother, what are your ideas?" I can't do it. ”

Liang Gongzi chuckled, looked at me and said, "I'll let her pretend to be a man and go to the academy with me." Zhu Gongzi, do you think this method is feasible? ”
