At the beginning of February of the twentieth year of Jiahe, the most prosperous street in Jinghua, Zhuangyuan Street, was noisy, and even the small merchants and vendors doing business on the left and right sides of the street were also gathered together, and the words were full of anticipation and curiosity about the trip of the talented man in three days.

"Oh, I don't know how lively this year's Qushui Liuyu is!"

"Yes, I'm also curious, I heard that Xiangye is very concerned about this this year!"

"No, I have a distant relative who works on an errand in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I heard him say that the Prime Minister had been preparing for this Qushui Liuyu Conference as early as a year ago." An old man was very proud of his words, as if he knew how great this news was, and he stretched out five fingers: "Look, Xiangye has sponsored five thousand taels of silver for this Qu Shui Liuzhen!" ”

"Five thousand taels?!" The people around him gasped: "Obediently bang, such a big stroke!" ”

"Of course, Xiangye is good to our Jinghua talents, that is well known!"

"That's—"

A group of people responded in an instant, and what was solved was true. In fact, it is true that once every three years, every time I take the test, Xiangye Yao Ziwen will sponsor many poor students from afar, and it has been passed down as a good story.

While everyone was laughing and talking, a young man walked over. This boy doesn't look very old, but he is very handsome. Even if you are dressed brightly, you can't beat the amazing appearance. The young man approached and quickly attracted everyone's attention.

"This old man, do you mean what you just said?" The young man asked very respectfully to the old man who said that he had relatives who were on an errand in Yao's mansion.

Hearing this, I asked. The old man suddenly felt that he was being questioned, and he was not very happy: "Hmph, if you don't believe it, you can't listen, why bother asking this to annoy!" ”

The young man didn't care about the old man's words, and said with a smile on his face: "Don't be angry, Xiaosheng is not a person from Jinghua, and this time he is here for the prosperity of Qushui Liuyu, so he is inevitably curious, and his questions are abrupt but there is no disrespect to the old man, and please bear with me." ”

The young man is already handsome. It is the eye of men. At this moment, he is so respectful and polite, and he is suddenly more liked. The old man, who had a slight complaint about him, also felt that he had gone too far, and slowly had a smile on his face.

"My father Geng will never use a pretense when he speaks, although this son believes it."

The young man thanked him again. Everyone also smiled kindly.

There was a chat. The morning market opened. There were more pedestrians in the streets, and the crowd dispersed. The young man found a nearby tea shed and sat down, and drank tea for most of the morning. It wasn't until Daddy Geng cleaned up the stall and left that he paid for the tea and followed.

"Childe, what are you doing with my father Geng like this?" Father Geng was deaf and clear-sighted, and soon discovered the young man's tailgating, so he put down his burden at the moment and joked: "Childe, don't you fancy my father Geng's money to buy vegetables, hehehe, it's not enough for me to buy you a folding fan with so much money." ”

"Dad misunderstood, Xiaosheng is not familiar with the place, and when he saw that Geng's father was kind, he thought about whether he could borrow it to live in your mansion."

"Hahaha, what about your mansion, my few broken sheds, I'm afraid I can't accommodate you! There are so many inns in Jinghua, if you can trust me, I can help you......"

Father Geng's words could not continue, because while speaking, the young man actually took out a gold leaf: "Father Geng, I don't know if you can allow Xiaosheng to stay for a few days?" ”

A golden leaf, Daddy Geng swallowed.

"How about another slice?"

Two gold leaves?!

That's enough to live the rest of my life with my old wife!

Father Geng is not a greedy person for money, but when he saw these two gold leaves, he still swallowed his saliva again and again.

However, Father Geng also has a heart: "This son, you use two gold leaves to live in my dilapidated house, I'm afraid it's just a nightstay!" ”

The young man didn't hide it, and said his intentions at the moment. It turned out that the son took a fancy to Geng's father's relatives who were doing errands in the Prime Minister's Mansion: "Xiaosheng came to Jinghua to seek fame, except for Wanguan's family wealth, he has no power and power, and I am afraid that it will be very bumpy." So I want to take advantage of my father's relatives to learn more about my grandfather's likes and dislikes......"

In this way, it makes sense!

Pingbai got two gold leaves, and Father Geng was naturally happy, and immediately took the young son home.

Along the way, the two chatted, and Daddy Geng also learned the basic situation of the young man. This young man's surname is Mu, his name is Sicheng, a person from Jiangnan, who has been in business for generations and has a family fortune. But Dai Nianbei was bent on taking a career and wanted to gain fame, so he simply came to Jinghua alone because of all the obstacles in his family, wanting to find a career path by himself.

"Mu Gongzi, this is the cold house, I hope Mu Gongzi will take care of it."

Xu felt that this house was far less than worth the rent of two gold leaves, and Father Geng's face turned red and he was very guilty.

"Daddy is modest, this house is very much to my liking, and it is very elegant. Can Daddy Geng care about me walking around? ”

Dai Nianbei did not regret taking back the gold leaf, Father Geng was already happy, what was wrong with walking around? So, Father Geng gave a general introduction to the surrounding environment, and he went into the house to prepare a lunch meal with his wife.

Father Geng entered the house, and in the house was his wife's greetings. Dai Nianbei listened to it with a smile for a while, and then moved his steps.

It's not that Dai Nianbei deliberately forgave Daddy Geng's heart, but the place where Daddy Geng lives is elegant and tight. The spring is melting, the stream is murmuring, and the small bamboo house is elegant, adding a touch of worldly charm to the verdant bamboo forest in spring.

At this point, this Dai Nianbei settled in the bamboo hut. And, just when Dai Nianbei was staying, a guest from Jinghua Qin Mansion came to stay overnight.

When the guest visited, Qin An was studying a strange book. The reason why this strange book is strange is that the contents recorded are all unprecedented for Qin An, and his interest is to confirm the wonderful theories above.

"Son, there is a visitor."

Just as he was reading the subtleties, a maid came in, and Qin An was not angry.

"Go out, didn't you see Master Ben reading a book? Get out of here......"

After a burst of temper, he counted the maid, but the maid stopped and didn't leave, and the smile dissipated: "Do you really think you are a son?" If it weren't for Gu Gongzi's whereabouts, would you still be willing to stay in your Qin Mansion? ”

The person who came was the guard and maid who guarded Lin Mengyao at the beginning, Huang Juan.

When Qin An heard Huang Juan say this, he laughed and hurriedly made amends. In the past few years, Huang Juan has been by his side, although he is in the name of a maid, he does not do the things of subordinates. In other words, here in Qin An, Huang Juan's name of "maid" is false. Of course, there is an inside story for allowing this phenomenon to exist - after a few years of getting along, Qin An actually put some thought into Huang Juan.

"Okay, Miss Huang Juan, Qin someone won't compensate you!" Qin An bent down exaggeratedly: "Tell me, who is visiting today?" ”

When asked the visitor, Huang Juan's eyes sank.

"I don't know that man, but I ...... It feels a little familiar......" (To be continued......
