In early spring, the county town is full of spring, full of flowers, and the pretty big girl and little daughter-in-law change out of the heavy skirt early, and wear the colorful colors of peach pink and apricot yellow on the body, which is bound to compete with the spring of the city.

Gu Qingzhu was wearing a whitewashed indigo skirt, shuttling through the flower-like crowd, small and shabby, however, because of the white magnolia on her back, which was as fresh as wax, she looked so different, and was independent from thousands of people.

"Miss Gu is here to sell tea cakes?" Gu Qingzhu, who was in a hurry, heard this warm voice, stood up and looked back, and saw Mu Mingcheng standing on the corner of the street she had just walked through, looking at her with a smile.

"yes, Head Stubble Lotus Heart." Gu Qingzhu smiled in return.

"You walked over at the right time, and I smelled the tea, and I guessed it was you." Mu Mingcheng smiled unabated, and walked to Gu Qingzhu's side in a few steps.

"Sir is a connoisseur." Gu Qingzhu bowed.

"What a chic magnolia!" Mu Mingcheng praised it from the bottom of his heart.

He smelled a trace of the fragrance of tea, and was even more attracted by the cluster of jade snowdrift flowers, Gu Qingzhu carried the light taste of pine needles and bamboo leaves, in those heavy makeup and glamorous fat powder, it was more natural and pure, which was unforgettable, so although he hurried to the tea and horse division to discuss the matter, he couldn't help but stop her.

"It's just a flower of the mountains, if you like it, I will give it to you." Gu Qingzhu took out the white magnolia from the bamboo basket and offered it with both hands.

The tips of the index fingers of her two hands were dyed with a little bit of green, which was dizzy from tea juice and had a light atmosphere.

In her heart, this is just a kind of gratitude, thanks to Mu Mingcheng for agreeing to buy her family's tea before, giving her peace of mind, which is much better than going to the Dongshi Tea Market and trying her luck around.

When Mu Mingcheng saw her like this, he was stunned at first, but he was an extremely smart person, so he smiled again and calmly reached out to take the flower branch.

Although the flowers given between men and women, especially those given by girls, mean an extraordinary relationship, but what she sent was not a peach blossom lotus flower that symbolized love, but a noble and pure magnolia, as clear and clean as she was.

"I still have something to do, at this moment, the shopkeeper Han is in the tea shop, you go look for him." Mu Mingcheng lovingly hung the flower branch in the crook of his arm, he was wearing a navy blue brocade robe today, and the dark color showed the purity and elegance of magnolia.

"Okay." Gu Qingzhu bowed down and said goodbye.

The two parted after a few words on the street corner, but they were watched by many people.

The Tea and Horse Division convened all the tea shop owners in Nancang County to discuss, and the Tan family was naturally the eldest lady Tan Zijin to attend on behalf of her father, she took the maid Xuan'er across the street, and saw Mu Mingcheng walking towards her, she wanted to say hello generously and walk with him again, but she didn't expect him to suddenly turn around and chase the girl in front of her.

In the bustling street market, there are many bright and moving women, the girl with the bamboo basket on her back is obviously a countryman, but she can lead Mu Mingcheng to talk to her with a smile, the crowd of people coming and going is surging, Tan Zijin stood far away, only saw the two people talking opposite, but couldn't hear anything.

"Isn't that the country girl who often comes to our shop to sell embroidered handkerchiefs? What is she pestering her uncle to do! Xuan'er muttered a little angrily.

"Hugh is going to be shameless and skinless!" Tan Zijin was also puzzled in his heart how Gu Qingzhu could have met Mu Mingcheng, but after listening to Xuan'er's unhindered words, he blushed all of a sudden.

"Where am I talking nonsense, Miss and the second master of the Mu family are baby relatives who are set by the young, if you weren't waiting for the second lady and Lu to take charge of the family business, you would have become the young lady of the Mu family!" Xuan'er relied on the friendship between the two of them for more than ten years, and muttered dissatisfiedly.

"Dead, it seems that I am too arrogant to indulge you on weekdays, and the more I dare to talk on the street, the more boundless I become!" Tan Zijin's face changed, and his expression became stern.

Seeing that her young lady was really angry, Xuan'er immediately shrunk her shoulders and lowered her head and didn't dare to say anything.

Just when Tan Zijin was depressed, a laughing male voice came from behind him: "Oh, Miss Tan, what's wrong?" ”

This voice is not unfamiliar at all, Tan Zijin heard the voice, frowned slightly, his face became more and more unsightly, Xuan'er instinctively turned around and blocked in front of her master.

The person who came was about twenty years old, seven feet tall, wearing a bright red Suzhou embroidered robe embroidered with peach blossoms, which loosely covered his loose skeleton, with a crown of blonde hair on top of his head, a slightly black face, eagle eyes and a hooked nose, short eyebrows and thin lips, and a perennial black green under his eyes.

"Second Master Qian." There is no way to avoid it, Tan Zijin lowered his eyes and saluted.

This is called Qian Erye, it is the second brother of the Qian family in Nancang County, Qian Man's second brother Qian Yi, he has been immersed in brothels and casinos all the year round, fighting cocks and walking dogs, fighting, bullying men and women, and his reputation is so bad that the children of good families stay away.

Tan Zijin is the most outstanding girl among the four major families, elegant and noble ladies, even Qian Man, who is above the top and unwilling to be the third lady, sighs to himself.

"Tut, this Second Master Mu has a baby like you, and he is still worried about the woman next to him, it's too much!" Qian Yi glanced across the street, seemed to guess a thing or two, and grinned.

Mu Mingcheng's body shape and bearing stand out from the crowd everywhere, and it is very conspicuous, Qian Yi can see at a glance that he is talking to a girl, but he is tall and blocks most of the girl, and he can't really see her face.

"We are all open to do business, Zuo is just a business matter, but Second Master Qian is so early today, but he went to the Tea and Horse Division on behalf of your eldest brother?" Tan Zijin raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked knowingly.

She knows very well that the head of the Qian family is now the eldest son of the Qian family, Qian Shang, who is arrogant and domineering, not to mention outsiders, even his own brothers and sisters don't want to get involved in his things.

"That'...... That, I'm not going, a group of people are sitting dry, listening to the newcomer Ding Yongdao who doesn't understand anything, what can it mean! Qian Yi's heart is empty, but his mouth is not ambiguous.

Tan Zijin sneered coldly: "Uncle Qian probably didn't tell you that today is the day of Dingchun tea cakes, who is not in a hurry to go to the tea and horse division?" It's not too early, so let's take my leave. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Qian Yi to speak, he left in a hurry with Xuan'er.

"Who doesn't rush to the Tea and Horse Division......" Qian Yi was annoyed, pinched his throat to learn Tan Zijin to speak, and after a while, he spat on the ground and scolded secretly, "Who will show the fake model!" ”

"What are you holding back, who are you scolding?" Mu Jincheng exploded in his ear.

Qian Yi was frightened, and turned around and shouted: "You Made, scared me to death!" ”

"Good people don't live long, and wicked people live for a thousand years, I hope that you, the guy with a rotten stomach, will die sooner, so as not to harm the world!" Mu Jincheng turned his head and said disgustedly.

"Hey! Just now, it was clear that your second brother hooked up with a girl on the street, but your uncle and sister-in-law have the same heart, and they are angry with me! Qian Yi said, pointing to the opposite street.

"Where, where?" Mu Jincheng looked at it, how could there be his second brother, only the back of the person hurrying with a bamboo basket on his back, which seemed familiar.

"Huh? It was there just now! Qian Yi was stunned.

He looked around, but saw Mu Mingcheng and Tan Zijin walking together, the two of them bowed their heads and talked in parallel, they were a pair of beautiful people who were very right, Xuan'er followed a few steps behind, and seemed to be holding a white flower in her hand.

"Aren't they good? Only your dog can't spit ivory out of his mouth! Mu Jincheng scolded angrily.

They are used to messing around, talking and scolding, and others listen to it unbearable, and they only regard it as intimacy.

"Miss Tan's cultivation is really perfect, and she can see it clearly, but she is not angry, your second brother has this good wife, why can't you hug left and right in the future, it will definitely be a blessing." Qian Yi's skin was thicker than the city wall, and he continued to talk nonsense without concealment.

"Sister Zijin will eventually be my second sister-in-law, the future head of the Mu family, you don't slander her, be careful that I turn against you! Besides, my brother rarely even visits the opera garden, he is a gentleman, how can he be as dirty as you think! Mu Jincheng said with a straight face.

"Okay, okay, your second brother is like my eldest brother, born to be a businessman who makes money, if you want to talk about eating, drinking and having fun, or our brothers are all the way." Seeing this, Qian Yi hurriedly came over with a hippie smile on his face.

"Who is the same person as you nasty embryo!" Mu Jincheng slapped his hand away, raised his head and left.

"Okay, good, only you are a merry son who guards himself like jade, a person in the spring boudoir dream of Fangfei in the city, in other words, Xiaocui is still waiting for your new lyrics and songs, you have to help your brother no matter what, hurry up and follow me!" Qian Yi chased after him, opened his mouth and talked nonsense, using both soft and hard, and dragged Mu Jincheng to his family's Wanhualou.

These twists and turns, Gu Qingzhu naturally didn't know, after she and Mu Ming broke up, she went straight into the Sansheng Tea Shop, the shopkeeper Han was very satisfied with the tea cakes she made, because the lotus heart bud tea had just been sporadically listed, Gu Qingzhu sent three catties at once, which was a very rare new tea, so he gave a high price of two hundred wen a catty, fifteen tea cakes, a total of six hundred and twenty wen.

This price was beyond Gu Qingzhu's expectations, she carefully collected the money and left some to buy grain, fortunately, although the price of grain was still high, it did not rise wildly after all, and the people who bought grain were not as crowded as last time.

The guy named Qiusheng seemed to remember Gu Qingzhu, and when he saw her coming again, he smiled at her familiarly, revealing a pair of cute little tiger teeth, he carefully loaded Gu Qingzhu with rice, and told her to be careful on the road, he was a very enthusiastic and thoughtful person.

Gu Qingzhu walked into a calligraphy and painting shop, intending to buy some paper and ink for Qingsong, although Ah Di didn't ask her for it, she saw him dipping in water and writing on the table several times.

Xu is school opened in the spring, and there were many people who came out to buy the four treasures of the study, Gu Qingzhu was nibbling on steamed buns while looking for cheap and easy-to-use ink ingots in the gap of the crowd.

Standing next to the counter was a thin young man wearing a moon-white embroidered snow lotus brocade robe, he was selecting an inkstone, and he didn't hit seven or eight in a row, so he couldn't help but wrinkle his eyebrows and asked, "You don't have anything else in this store?" ”

Seeing that he was dressed extraordinarily and had an elegant temperament, the man did not dare to slack off, so he trotted and called the shopkeeper to come over in person.
