Yang Muyun paced slowly on the streets of the city, and the conversation between her aunt and sister seemed to echo in her ears.

"Lan'er, just now the housekeeper's wife of the Zhou family's senior official came, saying that the Zhou official wanted to marry our family."

"Auntie, which Zhou family official?"

"Alas, which one else is the richest man in Huzhou who lives in Nanxun Town!"

"Is that the self-proclaimed Zhou Bo'an Zhou official who is the current Shen Wansan?"

"Yes, is it possible that there is a second Zhou official?"

"How would he know about our family?"

"I may not know it originally, but now that our Yun'er has won the top spot in our Huzhou Mansion at a young age, she is famous, and there are not many people who don't know our family."

"What does the Zhou family mean, if you really want to, how can you just call a housekeeper?"

"Lan'er, you are really confused, what kind of family is the Zhou family, if it weren't for Yun'er's fame at a young age, and his future is limitless, he would have taken a fancy to our family? The Zhou family is self-conscious, and calls a subordinate to reveal some meaning, and if it is successful, it will not damage the face of the Zhou family, does this still make the family unable to get on the pole? ”

"Auntie, what do you mean, if the Zhou family agrees, the other family won't consider it?"

"Lan'er, do you think there is anyone else who can compare to the Zhou family? I heard that their family's money is more than enough to buy the entire Huzhou Mansion. Who can compare to this! ”

"Auntie, I didn't mean this, I don't know how Miss Zhou's family is?"

"What's the difference, haven't you heard the people in Huzhou Mansion say, 'A flower in Huzhou, the most beautiful in the Zhou family'?"

"Auntie, look at what you said, you know that you are my aunt, I don't know, I thought it was the Zhou family who sent the matchmaker!"

"Lan'er, why do you hear something wrong? Yun'er is your own brother, but he is also my own nephew! Could it be that I, as my own aunt, can still push him into the fire pit? ”

"Okay, auntie, you can say better than me, you can just watch it! What you need me to do, you can just say it. ”

"Let's hurry up and prepare some gifts, I'll go to Zhou's house, Yi'er and Wenguang help me get things, and you can listen to my good letter at home!"

"Hehe, 'A flower in Huzhou, the most beautiful in the Zhou family', my aunt's mouth, just open her mouth, just talk nonsense to outsiders, and don't keep a good door in front of her family...... Where to go now? As he hesitated, he froze there. He is now a Xiucai, and he doesn't have to go to Fuxue every day like other Confucian students, and the professor of Fuxue specially taught him for an hour, and then gave him a topic and asked him to go home and do it. The topic was not difficult, and he didn't want to bother with it, so he wandered around the streets of the city.

"By the way, I haven't seen Master for a few days, I wonder if he's back?" He walked into an alley, and when he came to the end, he stopped in front of a simple wooden door on the right, which was still guarded by the iron general, and he rubbed the rusty iron lock. My thoughts drifted to a far, far away.

It was a winter three years ago, and it was cold, it got dark early, and there was snowflakes all over the sky...... Winters in Jiangnan are not as cold as in the north, but sometimes it snows, but it doesn't build up a thick layer on the ground. That day, the school was also early, and he walked home alone, yes, alone. For him, who was only 12 years old at the time, he was far from being the attention of today, and he often had to walk alone on the way to and from school.

It was when he was walking at the mouth of this alley that he saw a black thing lying on the ground, and when he stepped forward, he saw that it was a person. A wounded, dying man. At that time, he was very frightened and wanted to turn around and run, but the dying man actually opened his mouth and stopped him with a faint voice. Afterwards, he couldn't remember how he had carried him to his quarters, he was so small at the time, and he didn't know where he got the strength. It was an old man, about sixty years old, with blood flowing from the corners of his mouth and a jet-black palm print on his chest, which he couldn't imagine what kind of person had imprinted it. The old man told him to fetch some medicine from a hidden place, and then handed him a knife and told him to cut open the place where the palm print was printed on his chest, and he trembled and did as he was told. He clearly remembered that black blood flowed from the place where the knife had been cut, and when the blood turned red, the old man asked him to apply a green ointment, and the blood immediately stopped. He took care of the old man that night until he fell into a deep sleep, and then left.

After he came out, he could only go to his sister's house to stay, and later he was interrogated by his parents, and he only said that he went to the same school. After that, he went to take care of the old man every day after school, and the old man recovered quickly and was able to move freely on the seventh day. After the old man recovered from his injury, he showed a very good martial arts skill in front of him, and asked him if he would like to learn martial arts. The old man said that his surname was Hong Mingzhang, and instructed him not to show his martial arts in front of others, and not to tell anyone about him, even those closest to him. He agreed, and after that, every day after school, he went to Master Hong Zhang's place to practice martial arts for two hours. The content includes meditation luck, swordsmanship, and light skills. Martial arts training is very hard, and the old man Hong Zhang teaches him very strictly, but he gritted his teeth and persevered. Three years have passed, and he doesn't know how he practiced, but looking at Master's stretched expression, it shouldn't be very bad. Since he hadn't fought anyone, he didn't know what he was doing.

That day? That's right, it was when I was deceived into the mansion of Master Lu, who was like a walrus. When he and the two Lu Mansion subordinates who persuaded him to change into the groom's robe were drinking, while they were not paying attention, he slapped one of them on the big vertebral point on the back of their necks, and he was so nervous that he was afraid that they would jump up and shout for help if they were afraid that they would shoot down, but they didn't snort and lay motionless on the table...... Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Little brother!"

Yang Muyun was startled, came back from his contemplation, turned his head to look, and at some point a middle-aged man in a brocade robe came to him, only to see him with a yellow face and a slight beard, and greeted him with a smile. Behind him stood a man in green clothes, with a knife at his waist, and his expression was very fierce.

"Little brother, may I ask where the master here is now, I am his relative, I have something to do with him." The brocade-robed man asked with a smile.

Yang Muyun froze for a moment and replied, "Are there people living here?" I thought it was deserted? ”

The brocade-robed man frowned and said, "But I saw that the little brother had been silent here for a long time, and he seemed to be very familiar with this place. ”

Yang Muyun cursed secretly, his face remained silent: "This brother, Xiaosheng is a talent in the house, for this year's township test in the provincial government, I want to rent a secluded place to study hard, it's not bad here, but unfortunately there is no one, Xiaosheng also wants to ask?" Then he turned around and wanted to leave.

I saw the wrist of the man in green clothes behind the brocade robe flicker, a cold light flashed, and a sharp and snowy blade was horizontal in front of Yang Muyun, Yang Muyun was shocked: "What are you going to do, I'm just a poor talent, and I don't have any money on me?" The brocade-robed man squinted his eyes and smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to brush the knife aside, and said slowly: "Little brother, don't be afraid, we are not bad people." ”

Yang Muyun shouted, holding his head and stumbling towards the mouth of the alley.

The man in Tsing Yi wanted to catch up, but was stopped by the man in the brocade robe, and couldn't help but say anxiously: "Lord Zongqi, why don't you let me stop him." ”

The brocade-robed man smiled coldly: "It's just a small fish, save some effort and let him get rid of the big fish." ”

Yang Muyun ran away from the mouth of the alley again, and when he looked back and saw that no one was chasing him, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh and sighed: "It's dangerous, it's dangerous!" He was about to walk slowly, when he suddenly felt that his arm was pulled again, and he swallowed it back as soon as he screamed, and a face in front of him that seemed to be disgusted and happy was his sister Yang Lan.

Yang Muyun patted his chest and said, "Sister, what are you doing?" It was shocking and scared to death. Yang Lan looked at him with a smile: "I'm shocked? I see you have a ghost in your heart, right? Say, what's the bad thing again? Yang Muyun didn't want to dwell on this topic: "Sister, don't you pull me?" What the hell is going on? ”

Yang Lan Zhengse said: "Xiaoyun, you don't know, our aunt told you and Miss Zhou's family about the relationship, the two of you have exchanged the birthdays, and the date of marriage is also set, just on the eighteenth of this month." ”

"What?" Yang Muyun was stunned at that time.

Yang Lan didn't care whether he was happy or not, and pulled him and said repeatedly: "Sister, you have to hurry up and help you make the wedding dress, otherwise you won't be able to catch up with the good days." ”

Yang Muyun looked back at the direction where the master lived, and said in his heart: "I'm afraid I won't be able to come over for a while, I don't know where the master has gone, he must not meet those bad people."

He's Cloth Village is one of the largest stores in Huzhou Mansion, open in the most prosperous place in the commercial street in the center of the house, where all kinds of fabrics, satin, silk fabrics are available, guests go in and out non-stop, more than a dozen guys are busy in it without leaving the ground.

Yang Muyun looked at it and stopped, and asked, "Sister, do you have to come here?" ”

Yang Lan said unhappily: "What's the matter?" The fabrics here are the most complete and the best, and many official wives and ladies still come here to choose clothes? How can you still be satisfied here? ”

Yang Muyun hurriedly said, "Sister, I didn't mean that," he said and lowered his voice, "I heard that the fabrics sold here are more than two percent more expensive than those in other places, so I think it's better to take a look at another one." ”

Yang Lan glanced at him and said, "Okay, although our Yang family is not a big family, we will give you a groom official here, and the money will be repaid." ”

As he spoke, he pulled his younger brother and walked up quickly.

As soon as he entered the hall of the cloth village, a person who looked like a steward greeted him with a smile on his face: "Oh, madam, childe, what kind of fabric do you need and what are you for?" The little one will give you ......" Yang Lan pointed at Yang Muyun and said: "This is my younger brother, I need to make him a groom dress......" The steward had, and his smile did not decrease: "The little one understands, please ......" Before the words were finished, a fat man in a dark golden silk robe coughed and walked over, and the man in charge stepped aside, the fat man was about forty years old, wearing a flat mesh hat, the beard under the chin was sparse, and a pair of eyes were spinning non-stop. The fat man smiled and said, "How can this thing from the outside enter the eyes of the two Dharma Eyes, please come inside." As he spoke, he stretched out his arms and made a gesture of invitation, then turned around, moved his fat body and led the way, the two siblings glanced at each other, and walked inside after the fat man.

After passing through the antechamber, he passed through a courtyard and came to an elegant room, where the fat man invited the sister and brother to sit down, and ordered tea to be served. The siblings were made fidgeting by the fat man's excessive enthusiasm, and were about to say something when the fat man pulled the curtain in the middle of the room, revealing dozens of fine turquoise silks laid out inside. There is no palm lamp in the room, and the brilliance of each silk can be seen. In the Ming Dynasty, the groom's costumes were all fake nine-grade official uniforms made of blue-green fabric, not the big red in film and television dramas, but a big red flower was worn on his chest when he greeted him.

The fat man hugged a fine silk material, the satin was brilliant, swinging like a rippling lake, on the mahogany coffee table in front of the sister and brother, spread out and introduced: "This kind is called green waves, which is woven from the best lake silk, looks like water waves, and feels smoother and softer than the girl's skin......" The fat man gushed endlessly, and after the introduction, he saw that the sister and brother did not say anything, and turned around without care, and said: "This green wave style is too soft, and there is a kind of green smoke, I guess the lady and the son will like it. ”

Seeing the fat man turn around, Yang Muyun quietly asked, "Sister, do you have enough money?" Yang Lan glared at him and gritted her teeth: "I want you to worry about it." The fat man was not too troublesome, and brought the silk and satin over one by one, in the same detail, as long as there was something that the sister and brother did not like, he would take it back without saying a word, which made the sister and brother very unhappy. Seeing that the fat man was sweating profusely, Yang Lan couldn't bear to say, "You are the boss here, right?" The fat man said: "Don't dare, under the surname He." Yang Lan listened and said: "Boss He, just let the guys be busy with these things, why do you have to do it yourself?" Boss He took out a towel to wipe his sweat and said, "Those subordinates are rough and clumsy, and they are afraid that they will not serve the two of them." By the way, Madame and Son, do you have any of the fabrics in the photo? Yang Lan was embarrassed: "Boss He, you told us to see so many fabrics, our eyes are dazzled, I don't know which one to choose, so let's do it for us." Boss He nodded: "Okay, this Qingyun silk is beautiful in color, silky and moist, and it is made of robes and clothes to wear on the body, which makes people feel refreshed and feel soaring...... Does Childe feel suitable? Yang Muyun nodded, glanced at her sister, saw that she did not object, and said: "That's it, Boss He, my sister and I are here for the first time, and the price is ......" Boss He hurriedly said: "Where is it, Mrs. and son can come to the shop, it is the blessing of the shop, how can there be a reason for the two of them to pay for it." ”

"What?" The sisters and brothers' mouths opened into an O-shape, this is too weird, Boss He has been busy for most of the day, and he doesn't charge money for selling things, is this the sister and brother dreaming, or is Boss He stupid. Yang Muyun looked at Boss He in a daze: "Boss He, are you kidding?" How can you sell something without charging money? Boss He said respectfully: "Don't hide it, the owner of the small shop is a big official of Zhou, and Yang Gongzi, you are the uncle of the big official, that is, the master of the villain, how can there be a subordinate in this world who accepts the master's money." Therefore, Childe, your money villain will never dare to accept it. ”
