"Where are the flowers? Can you let me see first? Steward Li said a little anxiously.

Jiang Wanbai naturally had no opinion, so she led Steward Li to see the pot of orchids.

As soon as he saw the pot of orchids, Steward Li's eyes lit up, and he walked to the side of the orchid in a few steps, and while looking at the pot of orchids, he muttered to himself: "Yes, this is the flower." Well? How this leaf is different from that one! ”

Steward Li has some ways of gaining and losing, and it seems that he doesn't know this kind of flower, but it seems that he has seen similar ones before.

Jiang Wanbai looked at Wang Bao questioningly.

Wang Bao was also looking at the flower nervously at this time, feeling Jiang Wanbai's gaze, he briefly explained the reason: "The little marquis broke Zeng Taifu's orchid, and is looking for similar ones all over the world, and wants to put the flower back unconsciously before Zeng Taifu finds out!"

When Wang Bao spoke, his eyes never left the orchid. The little marquis is crazy looking for orchids now, if this flower can really be used, the little marquis will definitely be happy, then the benefits of him and Steward Li, will there be less!

Wang Bao thinks so, Steward Li has more layers than he thought, that Steward Zhou is really insidious, relying on his sister to be Madame's henchman, pressing him everywhere, if he doesn't make a big contribution, I'm afraid he will really be squeezed out.

The more he paid attention to it, the more uncertain Steward Li became, and he asked Wang Bao, "Zeng Taifu's flowers seem to be like this, right!" ”

"Steward Li, I've only seen it twice from afar, and I'm not sure!" Although Wang Bao wanted to receive the credit, he was more afraid of being beaten, so he said ambiguous words.

Steward Li naturally knew his thoughts, and couldn't help frowning. Staring at the flower twice, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and made a decision, wealth has always been a dangerous pursuit, maybe this is the opportunity given to him by God!

"Old lady, I'll take you to see the little marquis in a while, if the little marquis also takes a fancy to this flower, the price will definitely be negotiable." Li said.

She's going too? Jiang Wanbai thought about it for a while, and then understood what Steward Li meant, he was reducing the risk he was taking, in case the little marquis didn't like this flower, he was just a crime of poor recommendation.

Do you want to go yourself? Jiang Wanbai thought about it and decided to give it a try. Even if this matter doesn't work out, it won't have any effect on her, unless the little marquis is a particularly bastard person, then it's a different matter.

However, this probability should not be large, otherwise, this Steward Li would not have done it first.

This matter is so decided, Steward Li is about to leave with the flowers, but Tian Lian said: "Steward Li, the little marquis shouldn't have gotten up at this hour, breakfast has been ready, if you don't dislike it, you can have breakfast at our house and then go, the time should come."

When Steward Li heard this, he felt that what she said was very reasonable, disturbing the little marquis's sleep, he had a few heads that were not enough to cut off, and there was another point, he was indeed hungry, "Since this is the case, then I will trouble you." ”

"No trouble, no trouble, where are you talking about, you can eat here with us, we are too late to be happy." Wang Bao was polite while helping to make breakfast.

After a while, breakfast was put on the table, and the unique flavor of shrimp paste immediately wafted out, which hooked people's mouths.

"What kind of food are you cooking, why is it so fragrant?" Steward Li raised his nose, only to feel that his appetite was open.

Wang Bao smelled the fragrance, and was also a little surprised, he only knew the plate of drunken shrimp, as for the others...... He looked at Jiang Wanbai.

Jiang Wanbai knew that this was a good time for her to sell shrimp paste, so she hurriedly said: "This is a few home-cooked dishes I made with Zizhi sauce, you can try them quickly and see if you like them?"

"Zizhi sauce?" Steward Li asked.

"It is made of treasures in the sea, adding some secret ingredients, and after many procedures, it is a recipe handed down by our ancestors, which is both a seasoning and a tonic." Jiang Wanbai Jue's own is not a lie, the shrimp is not also considered the sea, no, a treasure in the river.

"There is such a good thing, it smells very good, and it must be good to eat." Steward Li said, and was about to sit down.

And at this moment, a male voice came from outside the door of the house, "Little Hou Ye, the villain has already investigated, it is this Wang Bao, and they have the orchid you want." ”

"Really, you didn't lie to me?" A clear and unruly young voice.

"How dare the villain lie to you!" The male voice said respectfully.

"It's Steward Zhou, and the little marquis." Steward Li's face changed suddenly, and then he looked at Wang Bao with an angry face, his first thought at this time was that Wang Bao had deceived him, and he dared to cheat him, he was really impatient.

Wang Bao's face also changed, and he said in a trembling voice: "Steward Li, this is none of my business, I haven't seen Steward Zhou at all, and I don't know how he knows, you must believe me!"

Before Steward Li could say anything, a young man walked in as soon as the curtain was lifted. The young man was about thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a purple satin robe, a purple and gold crown, and sword eyebrows, just like the pine poplars outside, heroic, it was Ouyang Jun, the little marquis of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion.

This Ouyang Junchang is still very similar to that, but his chin is also raised too high, Jiang Wanbai is a little suspicious, can he see the road under his feet!

Behind Ouyang Jun, followed by a man in his thirties with a slick face, it was none other than Steward Zhou.

When Steward Li and the others saw that the little marquis had come in, they didn't care about saying anything, so they quickly knelt down and saluted.

Ouyang Jun didn't even raise his eyelids, "Why are you here?" What about the flowers? After speaking, he smelled the fragrance in the air, and unconsciously added, "What is so fragrant?" ”

Steward Li hurriedly said: "Little Marquis, I also heard that there are flowers you want here, so I hurried to take a look."

After he finished speaking, he was about to say it, but he was interrupted by Steward Zhou, "Come and see the flowers?" How did I see you here ready to eat!

Steward Li really has a good appetite, knowing that the little marquis is so worried about this flower that he can't eat or sleep, he still has the leisure to eat here. Steward Zhou glanced at Steward Li triumphantly, and then sneered.

How could he be unexpected, this time, Steward Li almost won, but fortunately, someone heard his conversation with Wang Bao and sued him, he not only won back a game now, but also found an opportunity to suppress Steward Li, how could he not do his best.

When Ouyang Jun heard this, he was also angry, "You are such a big dog! ”

Steward Li knelt down again with a "bang", he regretted it very much now, why did he stay for breakfast, otherwise he would be proud of him now, it was really a wrong step, and the whole plate was lost.

"The flowers are just outside. This is the breakfast I made, if the little marquis doesn't dislike it, you can eat some. Jiang Wanbai was afraid that this matter would implicate Wang Bao, and at that time, how could she still have the face to go back to see the third uncle, so she hurriedly interjected.

Ouyang Jun glanced at Jiang Wanbai with some displeasure, "Who are you?" ”

"I am the same clan of Wang Bao's daughter-in-law, and I am also the owner of the flower. I only came to the capital last night with the flowers, and as soon as Steward Li heard that I had flowers here, he didn't bother to have breakfast.

Later, he thought that you were worried day and night, and he finally got a good night's sleep, for fear of disturbing you, so he didn't bring the flowers back immediately. Jiang Wanbai explained.

She helped Steward Li like this, Steward Li was naturally very grateful, and Steward Zhou glared at her fiercely and opened his mouth to say something, but at this moment, Ouyang Jun said, "Take me to see the flowers first." He doesn't care about the merits of this matter at all, he only cares about his flowers.

When he said so, everyone naturally didn't dare to object, and hurriedly took him to the pot of orchids.

Seeing the pot of orchids, Ouyang Jun was a little happy at first, and then frowned a little.

He hates these flowers and plants the most, so he doesn't remember what Zeng Taifu's pot of orchids looks like at all, and it looks like it's similar to this pot of orchids, but whether he can fool Zeng Taifu or not, he is a little uncertain in his heart.

If he can't be fooled, thinking of Zeng Taifu's ring ruler, Ouyang Jun just felt a sudden pain in his palms, and this is not enough, if Zeng Taifu sued his father...... He didn't dare to think about it anymore.

"Is this flower as different from the pot I broke?" Ouyang Jun squinted his eyes and asked the person behind him.

It turned out that the little marquis couldn't recognize it, Steward Li and Steward Zhou said in their hearts, but none of them answered Ouyang Jun, they all stood there with their eyes and noses, noses and mouths. Just kidding, if they said it was like that, they didn't deceive Mrs. Zeng, and the little marquis didn't pick their skin.

Ouyang Jun didn't get an answer, he turned around and glared at them fiercely, "A bunch of waste, what's the use of asking you?" ”

Steward Li and Steward Zhou shrank their necks and did not dare to answer.

Ouyang Jun snorted coldly, rolled his eyes, and said to Wang Bao: "You, just you, go to King Ning's Mansion to invite my cousin, and say that I have something important to ask him to help with."

When Wang Bao heard this, he hurriedly agreed and ran out.

When he left, Ouyang Jun raised his chin and said, "You woke me up so early, I haven't eaten breakfast yet!" As he spoke, he looked into the house, and the meaning was self-evident.

Steward Li heard the strings and knew what he meant, and immediately said: "The food in the house has not been touched yet, if the little marquis doesn't dislike it......"

Before he finished his words, Ouyang Jun stumbled into the house, he had already smelled the fragrance in the house, and now that the matter of this flower had been settled, he must eat a little more to make up for the loss of the previous two days.

Ouyang Jun's movements were so fast that by the time Jiang Wanbai and the others entered the house, he was already sitting there waiting to eat.

When Steward Zhou saw it, he hurriedly ran to him, spread chopsticks and vegetables for him, and got Ouyang Jun's blue eyes, which made him smile all over his face, while Steward Li was a step late, and his face was secretly annoyed.

"What is this, why haven't I eaten it before?" Ouyang Jun took a bite of the steamed egg with shrimp sauce and sighed with some satisfaction.

Steward Li was preempted by Steward Zhou just now, and when he heard his question at this time, he hurriedly repeated Jiang Wanbai's words about shrimp paste.

Ouyang Jun nodded, ate two more bites of steamed eggs with shrimp paste, and then sandwiched a chopstick shrimp paste pork ribs, his face was the same as a cat that ate dried fish, and immediately cloudy and sunny, "What about this, what is this?" He pointed to the drunken shrimp.

Steward Li didn't know this dish either, so he looked at Jiang Wanbai for help.

"Drunken shrimp is made with Shaoxing's daughter red and live shrimp." Jiang Wanbai replied.

Ouyang Jun glanced at her, "You did all this?" ”

"Yes." Jiang Wanbai nodded, "Does the little marquis still like it?" ”

Ouyang Zheng opened his mouth to say something, but when he reacted, he said, "So-so, the wine used in this drunken shrimp is defective at first glance, and it is unpalatable to death." ”

Ouyang Jun complained, but the chopsticks he used to pick up the vegetables were not slow at all, so that Steward Zhou couldn't keep up with his speed, and he glared at him several times in disgust.

At this point, Jiang Wanbai still can't see this Ouyang Jun's character, duplicity, at first glance, he is a spoiled child, and what's worse is that this child still has a lot of power in his hands.

Jiang Wanbai decided that it was better for her to stay away from this bear child.

However, God seems to love to fight against others, just when Jiang Wanbai thought so, Ouyang Jun said, "There is still a shortage of cooks in our house, and your cooking skills are so-so." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Jiang Wanbai with disgust, "Even at this age, it's a little too big." And your clothes, did you run out of the beggars' pile, rustic. I think the beggars are a little better dressed than you. ”

Jiang Wanbai's face turned green, what happened to her dress? Is it good to have normal clothes, isn't it just that the color is dark, the fabric is almost, and the style is a little old-fashioned, is it worth his poisonous tongue?

And her age, he thought that she wanted to become an old lady, he really didn't have a backache when he stood and talked, Jiang Wanbai felt that he should let the great god of crossing turn him into an old man, and see if he still said it.

With a dark face, Jiang Wanbai said, "Thank you little marquis for looking up to me, but as you can see, at my age, I can only grow flowers and grass at home, but I can't serve a noblely dressed person like you." ”

"You, huh!" Ouyang Jun tilted his head to the side and ignored Jiang Wanbai.

The room was quiet for a while, and after a while, Jiang Wanbai saw that Ouyang Jun had been eating drunk shrimp, afraid that he would get drunk and make some kind of moth, and she felt that she needed to remind him.

"Little Hou Ye, eating drunk shrimp is like drinking, you have a lot of stamina, don't you still have something to do in a while? It's better to eat less! ”

Ouyang Jun grabbed the chopsticks of the drunken shrimp and said dissatisfiedly: "Who wants you to meddle in your business!" However, despite his words, his chopsticks turned around in the air and did not pick up the drunken shrimp again.

It's really not cute at all, or her own child is cute, looking at it this way, God is pretty good to her, if she gives this bear child to her, she will have to be angry to death, Jiang Wanbai thought with some joy.

And at this moment, there was a sudden sound of horses chirping and neighing outside.

"Cousin is here!" Ouyang Jun stood up suddenly, and said with some joy.

As soon as his voice fell, the curtain of the door was raised, and a man came in from outside. The man was about twenty years old, wearing a black power suit, a white jade crown on his head, and thick boots embroidered with gold thread auspicious cloud patterns.

Jiang Wanbai was a little stunned when she saw this man, just because under the man's long eyebrows, there was a pair of Danfeng eyes, that is, those eyes, which made her shudder.

Those eyes were sharp and cold, and what was even more peculiar was that there were vertical pupils in them, which made Jiang Wanbai instantly think of the eyes of the golden snake, the same can reflect everything, and the same everything can't enter his eyes.

Maybe Jiang Wanbai's gaze was too direct, the man seemed to look at her perceptively, and after finding that she was looking at him with the kind of eyes that looked at monsters, his brows were furrowed, and his face became even more cold.

Ouyang Jun noticed the situation here, and hurriedly walked a few steps, cutting off the sight of the two, "Cousin, you are finally here, I have been waiting for you for a long time." ”

As he spoke, he glared at Jiang Wanbai. Who in the capital doesn't know, his cousin hates others staring at him the most, just for this, I don't know how many corpses have been added to the mass grave outside the city, why is Jiang Wanbai so bold.

Jiang Wanbai actually didn't want to keep staring at the man's eyes, but just now, she was like a demon, and she couldn't retract her gaze at all, and now she was glared at by Ouyang Jun, but she immediately came back to her senses.

Glancing at Ouyang Jun gratefully, Jiang Wanbai suddenly realized that this kid was actually not bad.

After looking at Ouyang Jun, she quickly glanced at the man opposite, and at this glance, she realized that in fact, the man did not have vertical pupils, but a pair of pupils.

Heavy pupils are not uncommon in Chinese history, but only eight people have been recorded: Cangjie, Yu Shun, Chong'er, Xiang Yu, Lü Guang, Gao Yang, Yujuluo, and Li Yu.

Cangjie was a word-making saint in the era of the Yellow Emperor; Yu Shun is a saint of Chan, a saint of filial piety, and one of the three emperors and five emperors; Jin Wen Gong Chong'er is one of the five tyrants of the Spring and Autumn Period; Xiang Yu is the "Overlord of Western Chu" in ancient times.

Lü Guang was the king of Houliang who swept through the Western Regions during the Sixteen Kingdoms; Gao Yang was the founder of the Northern Qi Dynasty; According to legend, Yujuluo used a plan to kill the fierce general Li Yuanba and the famous general of the Sui Dynasty; Li Yu was the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, a famous lyricist and writer.

Therefore, in history, it is believed that people with heavy pupils are generally saints, but looking at this man's reaction, it seems that he doesn't think so here, Jiang Wanbai thought about it, and his face became indifferent, it's just a double pupil.

The man, that is, Li Qingyi, was originally very unhappy that Ouyang Jun was blocking him, but after seeing the expression on Jiang Wanbai's face quickly changed from surprise to indifference, and finally showed a look that she was not interested at all, so it was, he hooked the corners of his lips and said to Ouyang Jun: "Didn't you say that there was something important?" What the hell is going on. ”

"This ......" Ouyang Jun was stared at by Li Qingyi, and suddenly felt a little pressure. He suddenly remembered that his cousin seemed to like Zeng Taifu's pot of orchids, if he knew that he had broken that pot of orchids, would he dispose of him!

Instantly felt that the sky was about to fall, Ouyang Jun regretted it at this time, why did he call his cousin, did he think he died too slowly, thinking so, so he was hesitant, and he didn't know what to say.

"What the hell is the matter with you?" Li Qingyi asked. His cousin, who was spoiled by his aunt and lawless, knew about trouble all day long, and this time, he didn't know what trouble he had!

Ouyang Jun was asked by him, and he didn't dare to say it, in a panic, he pointed to the dining table behind him and said, "Cousin, there are people here who cook quite deliciously, so I quickly called my cousin to taste it." After saying that, he nodded as if he was affirming his words.

"Really?" Li Qingyi said with some disbelief.

"Really!" Ouyang Jun nodded vigorously like a chicken pecking rice, for fear that Li Qingyi would not believe it.

Li Qingyi didn't ask any more questions, but came to the dining table, glanced at the messy meal eaten by Ouyang Jun, and then at Ouyang Jun, the corners of his mouth were dyed with a smile. His cousin really can't even lie.

Ouyang Jun was a little embarrassed by him, and in order to cover it up, he hurriedly said: "Cousin, I'm a little hungry, so I didn't wait for you, otherwise, I'll ask someone to make you a table."

"No need, I'll have something to do in a moment." Saying that, Li Qingyi sat opposite Ouyang Jun, he wanted to see what tricks his cousin was playing.

Ouyang Jun hurriedly grabbed some fairly complete dishes and handed them to him, "Cousin, you taste it, it's really delicious." ”

When Li Qingyi heard this, he really ate it. His hands are knotted, white and slender, just a simple action of eating, but it is amazing.

There is such a kind of person, they are born to be the darling of God, the focal point of everyone's attention.

"Cousin, how's it going?" Ouyang Jun was obviously accustomed to Li Qingyi's aura, and asked a little nervously, as if he was in a hurry to get affirmation for that meal.

Li Qingyi seemed to be hanging him on purpose, and ate two more bites, and then said leisurely, "It's okay." ”

is such a sentence that is not a compliment, Ouyang Jun listened to it, but he breathed a sigh of relief as if he had received amnesty.

While serving Li Qingyi vegetables, he said, "Since my cousin likes to eat, let's eat more." By the way, my cousin doesn't know what this dish is called, this is called drunken shrimp, and this one is made with purple mushroom sauce. Does my cousin know what Zizhi sauce is? Zizhi sauce is ......"

Ouyang Jun's memory is good, he just recited what Jiang Wanbai said just now, and after reciting it, he couldn't help but eat with Li Qingyi, until he couldn't eat anymore, and then he wiped his mouth with satisfaction.

At this time, Li Qingyi also finished eating, "The meal is good, thank you cousin, but I still have something to do today, if you are okay, I will go and get busy first." With that, he stood up, looking intent on leaving.

He was leaving, Ouyang Jun was immediately anxious, and he also stood up suddenly, but after standing up, he found that she didn't know how to say it, and she was so anxious that she scratched her ears and cheeks.

The corners of Li Qingyi's mouth curled even more, "What's the matter, cousin still has something?" ”

It is said that the authorities are fascinated, and the bystanders are clear, Jiang Wanbai watched from the side, only feeling that compared with this Li Qingyi, Ouyang Jun is simply a harmless little white rabbit, in view of the fact that Ouyang Jun helped her just now, she decided to repay the favor.

After a gift, Jiang Wanbai said: "The little marquis got an orchid today, so I want you to help take a look, this orchid is better than that of Mrs. Zeng."

Ouyang Jun was overjoyed when he heard Jiang Wanbai's words, "Yes, that's it, cousin, you must help me take a look." ”

Li Qingyi thought of Ouyang Jun's personality and listened to Jiang Wanbai's words, and almost immediately, he guessed the original end of the matter. He glanced at Jiang Wanbai meaningfully, and then he said, "Okay."

Jiang Wanbai received Li Qingyi's warning eyes, and didn't dare to raise her head again, so she could only silently bless Ouyang Jun, high energy ahead, you must be careful.

Everyone came to the orchid again, Ouyang Jun pointed to the pot of orchids, and asked anxiously, "Cousin, is this flower the same as Zeng Taifu's?"

Li Qingyi looked at the flower, and a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes, "It's the same, it's even better than the pot of Mrs. Zeng."

"Really?" Ouyang Jun felt that he could see the sun.

Li Qingyi nodded, smiling without saying a word.

Ouyang Jun was a little furious by his laughter, and was about to ask something, but Li Qingyi said: "Zeng Taifu is coming back from Xiaotangshan today, if you don't believe it, you can ask him."

"Coming back today?" Ouyang Jun picked up the pot of flowers like a burning buttocks, and said to Li Qingyi, "Cousin, I have something to do, so I'll leave first." ”

After speaking, he added, "By the way, cousin, how much silver do you think this pot of flowers is worth?" ”

"Three or four hundred is not a little, seven or eight hundred is not too much, it depends on whether this flower can meet people who like it." Li Qingyi said.

Ouyang Jun thought for a while, made a "five" mouth shape to Steward Li, and then said goodbye to Li Qingyi, and asked Steward Zhou to hold the flowers, and they ran away.

Li Qingyi looked at Ouyang Jun's back, sighed lightly, and then flew on the horse and galloped away.

Jiang Wanbai looked at the man and horse like a gale, and sighed lightly, for this man and Ouyang Jun, she could almost think of the tragic situation after Ouyang Jun was caught.

Forget it, she is too busy to take care of herself now, and Ouyang Jun can only ask for more blessings, but after such a fuss, she sold the flowers.

She could see Ouyang Jun's mouth shape just now, it was five hundred taels, enough for the Zhang family to eat and drink for a long time, and it also meant that her future was bright for her way of raising flowers and making a fortune!

Sure enough, Steward Li said, "You wait for me here for a while, and I'll go back to pay the silver now." Steward Li is still very grateful to Jiang Wanbai, so he is not ambiguous at all.

Jiang Wanbai naturally hurriedly thanked her, and when Steward Li left, they began to make breakfast again.

However, because the porridge and steamed buns were already redundant, this breakfast was also made quickly, and when Steward Li came back with the money, this breakfast was just ready, and everyone sat together to eat breakfast, and this time, they were much more enthusiastic than just now.

Steward Li praised Jiang Wanbai's delicious cooking, and Jiang Wanbai also thanked Steward Li for helping her get the silver.

After eating, Steward Li left, and Wang Bao said to Jiang Wanbai that he could take them out for a walk.

"You didn't have a good night's rest last night, today, let's have a good rest!" Jiang Wanbai said.

Wang Bao smiled, "It's okay, it's said that it was on duty there, but it was actually very leisurely, and I was used to it." ”

"Yes, sister-in-law, he is telling the truth, don't be polite to us." Tian Lian also said on the side.

Jiang Wanbai saw that he was telling the truth, and she really needed someone as a guide, so she said, "Then I'll trouble you!"

"Sister-in-law is too polite, what's not troublesome, this time I can catch up with Steward Li, and thank you sister-in-law." Wang Bao said and led everyone out of the door.
