Tianxiangfang is as noisy as ever.

Xie Jinci shuttled through it, but he was in no mood to enjoy it.

Thinking that the drawings she sold to Fu Tinghan one after another were only exchanged for a few dollars, she was full of anger and grievances, and she was boiling so much that she was about to overflow.

The first time she saw Fu Tinghan, she didn't have a very good impression of him, but after getting along later, she gradually accepted his unrestrained style.

Yet she sincerely did business with him, and he took her for a fool!

The more the little girl thought about it, the more angry she became, and before she knew it, she walked to the door of Ying Yunxuan.

She glared at the hanging plaque in a huff, rolled up her sleeves and rushed in.

Elegantly decorated lobby and surprisingly quiet.

She looked around, didn't see Fu Tinghan's figure, and was about to go up to the second floor, when a weak voice came timidly from the corner: "Little boy, are you here to buy jade?" ”

Xie Jinci followed the prestige.

I saw a delicate-looking girl leaning out from behind the tall Bogu frame, holding a dripping rag in her hand, and looked at her shyly.

Xie Jinci smiled at her friendly, "You're a guy here?" ”

The girl bit her lip crampedly, hesitated for a moment, and nodded slightly.

Xie Jinci was thoughtful, and then heard her ask in a low voice, "What jade does the little boy need?" I, I can ......"

It seemed that because of the extra nervousness, she stuttered for a long time, her face was flushed, and she was stunned that she didn't finish a sentence.

Xie Jinci understood that she wanted to introduce jade to herself, shook her head, and explained: "I don't buy jade, I came to find Fu Gongzi, is he upstairs?" ”

"He's not here!"

The girl replied very quickly, and her expression was a little more inexplicably nervous.

Xie Jinci tilted his head, and his thin eyebrows frowned slightly.

The girl pinched the rag uneasily, "The prince and the prince said...... No matter who comes to him, they can't say he's upstairs......"

Xie Jinci: "......"

Realizing that she had said the wrong thing, the girl hurriedly waved her hand, "No, Childe didn't say it...... I mean, Childe isn't here! He said he wasn't upstairs! ”

Xie Jinci: "......"

"Alas, if it's really a big lady who doesn't touch the spring water with ten fingers, the work is not good, and the reception of guests will not be able to, if you go down like this, when will you be able to repay the silver? In my opinion, wouldn't it be time-saving and trouble-free for me to go back to your house with you and ask your father and mother directly to get the silver? ”

A lazy voice sounded from the stairs, and Fu Tinghan was walking down the stairs helplessly with a face on his face wearing ink and blue embroidered feathers, holding a thin cigarette gun wrapped in red gold and silk.

When the girl heard this, she immediately panicked, "No! Can't let them know! Childe, I will do a good job for you, and the money I owe you will always be repaid! ”

Fu Tinghan spit out a puff of cigarette, hooked his lips and smiled: "You broke it, but the jade jade inkstone worth a hundred taels, if it is calculated according to one tael of silver per month, how many years of work do you have to do for me...... You can afford it, but I can't afford to wait. Hurry up and finish wiping the floor, and I'll go back with you to get the money." ”

"I—I didn't mean to break ......"

The girl's eyes were red, and she looked at the handsome young man without saying anything.

Xie Jinci probably understood the cause and effect of the incident from their conversation.

The girl accidentally broke the jade in the store, and because she had no money to pay it back, she was detained by Fu Tinghan and left to work as a coolie.

Although it is a matter of course to repay debts, it is only a young girl who owes money, is Fu Tinghan so persecuted and leaves no room for it?

Xie Jinci looked at the trembling girl sympathetically, and couldn't help but cry out for her: "Master Fu, even if she owes you money, you shouldn't treat her like this!" ”

Fu Tinghan looked at her with a smile, "Ah Jin, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk, she owes me, not you, or are you willing to pay back this money for her?" ”

"I ......"

Xie Jinci subconsciously touched his purse.

Dry and shriveled and empty.

The girl in the corner barely squeezed out a smile, "Little boy, thank you...... In fact, Fu Gongzi is not wrong, after all, I broke his things first, and I, I can work to make up for it! ”

"What are you calling her? Little boy? Hahahaha......"

Fu Tinghan seemed to have heard something amazing, and he held his waist and couldn't stop laughing, "I see that you two are of the same age, and you are so sympathetic, why don't you pay a visit to me today?" Married as a brother and sister! Hahahaha......"

The girl was embarrassed by his laughter, and her expression was a little confused, and she really didn't know what she had said wrong.

The visitor is dressed as a scholar, and she calls a little boy, is there anything wrong?

Xie Jinci saw that she was about to cry, glared at Fu Tinghan, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm a girl like you, but for some reason, I have to pretend to be like this." ”

The girl's eyes lit up, and she took a few steps to get closer to her, but considering that she still had a wet rag in her hand, she retreated.

She said cautiously and sincerely: "I, my name is Shen Siling, what about you?" ”

Xie Jinci's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, "My name is Jinci, Xie Jinci." ”

After speaking, she was stunned, and then immediately covered her mouth and looked at Fu Tinghan on the side vigilantly.

Fu Tinghan teased and looked back at her, took a puff of cigarette, and said with a smile: "Ah, there is really a 'brocade' in your name, I am such an unpredictable prophet, I can go outside to rob the business of that yellow half-immortal." ”

Xie Jinci glared at him in shame, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly remembered his purpose for coming to Ying Yunxuan.

She crossed her hands on her hips, puffed out her cheeks and said indignantly: "Master Fu, I sold you four drawings during this time, and you gave me a total of one or two pieces of silver and one money, won't your conscience hurt?!" ”

Fu Tinghan was shocked and almost choked on the smoke, but he covered it up well, with a ruffian smile on his face, and he couldn't see a flaw.

"What did Ah Jin say, I sincerely do business with you, how can it hurt my conscience?"

"You! It's all this time, and you're still lying to me! Mr. Qian saw my drawings, and he said that the lotus flower I drew was worth fifty taels of silver! No, it's seventy taels! ”

The more the little girl talked, the more angry she became, the more aggrieved she became, if she hadn't ever fought, she really wanted to pounce and beat this black-hearted businessman fat!

"Ahem, huh...... That sissy, ahhhhh ”

Fu Tinghan covered his heart with a cough, and pretended to turn his face away naturally, "Maybe that person deliberately said such elevating words in order to please you......"

Xie Jinci gritted his teeth, "Master Fu! ”

Fu Tinghan was quite uncomfortable by her clean but disappointed eyes.

In the end, he was defeated and relented: "Hey, count me wrong, okay?" Didn't I take into account your young age, and I was afraid that it would not be safe for you to hold so much silver? ”

The look on the girl's face told him that she didn't believe it.

Fu Tinghan pinched his eyebrows, "Okay, okay, I'll make up the money I sent you for, this will always work, right?" ”

Anyway, Shen Changfeng is not here, he can secretly stuff the silver ticket to the little girl, God knows this, only Shen Changfeng doesn't know.

Well, it works!

He fumbled in his arms, found a stack of silver tickets, and said while counting: "Four drawings, according to seventy taels each, uh...... Two hundred and eighty taels in total. Oh, take it, remember to hide it tightly when you go back, don't be seen by your son-in-law. ”

The latter sentence was what he thought in his heart, but he didn't expect to say it casually!

He hurriedly observed the little girl's expression, and saw that she was satisfied to accept the silver ticket, but after listening to his words, deep thought appeared in the fawn's eyes.

He quickly came up with many countermeasures, weighed the pros and cons and analyzed the trade-offs, and took a serious puff of cigarette:

"I mean, beware of your son-in-law's eyes on money, and he will be greedy for all your money! Don't you know what kind of person he is? ”

Xie Jinci's face was serious, he thought about it seriously, and didn't answer his words, but he agreed very much in his heart.

She glanced at Shen Siling in the corner, "How much money does she owe you?" ”

Fu Tinghan raised his eyes, "Oh? Does Ah Jin really plan to pay back for an unrelated person? ”

Shen Siling was moved in her heart, but she still shook her head, "Jinci, thank you for your kindness, but I really can't afford to pay back this silver, if you pay it back for me, I ...... There's no money for you either. ”

"It's okay, you don't have to pay me back!"

Xie Jin's words were generous, "You dare to act, which I admire very much." I'm going to solve this trouble for you, but I actually want to make friends with you! ”

"And I...... Make friends? ”

Shen Siling's eyes flickered, and she looked at her happily and timidly, "Jinci, is what you said true?" I...... I haven't made a single friend. ”

Her surprise appearance of gains and losses made Xie Jinci feel a sense of sympathy.

She saw her former shadow in Shen Siling.

In Yangzhou before, why wasn't she friendless and alone?

The little girl dressed as a scholar grinned, stepped forward and held her hand sincerely, "From today on, Xie Jinci and Shen Siling are good friends!" ”

Shen Siling gently curled the corners of her mouth, "Jinzi...... Thank you! ”

"Stop, stop!"

Fu Tinghan leaned on the counter and shook the cigarette gun in his hand, "You two really think that Ying Yunxuan is a Bodhisattva Temple?" One is a noble girl of the Shen Mansion, the other is a maidservant of the Shen Mansion, the door is not the right household, if you really marry Jin Lan here with me, wouldn't it be to ruin the fortune of the store? ”

Two girls of the same age were shocked when they learned each other's identities.

Xie Jinci endured his doubts and raised his eyes to look at Fu Tinghan, "Please also ask Fu Gongzi to tell me how much silver taels should be compensated for the jade jade inkstone broken by Siling?" ”

The young man's peach blossom eyes were bent, showing his grace, "Since Ah Jin insists on being this good person, then I will give you a discount, a fixed price, one hundred and eighty taels, not one less child." ”

Xie Jinci glanced at Shen Siling and asked her if the price was reasonable, and the latter clenched the rag and nodded slightly.

Fu Tinghan took a depressed puff on his cigarette.

The bridge of integrity that he and Zi'er had built with great difficulty collapsed silently.

It's all to blame on Shen Changfeng!

It's good, why pit people?

It's obviously an extremely important chess piece, so if you don't keep it in the palm of your hand, how can you trap people?!

Xie Jinci quickly counted out one hundred and eighty taels of silver tickets, and handed them forward without hesitation.

Fu Tinghan accepted the silver ticket and glanced at her, "Ah Jin, next time you drew the drawings, will you still sell them to Ying Yunxuan?" ”

"Master Fu, it's only three things, and you lied to me four times!"

The little girl's back straightened, she made a loud noise, didn't look at him, and took Shen Siling to leave.

Fu Tinghan watched their small figures walk away holding hands, and muttered to himself: "Instead of returning to the Shen Mansion where you eat people and don't spit out bones, it's better to stay in Ying Yunxuan and wipe the floor......

He played with the cigarette gun in a graceful manner, and was about to turn back to the second floor, when a woman stepped into the door of the store and asked softly:

"Boss, I don't know that your shop can take over the work of repairing jade?"

Fu Tinghan stared at the woman who was like a hibiscus but covered in dust, her peach blossom eyes narrowed, and she said politely: "Naturally, I took it." I wonder what the girl is going to repair? ”

The woman walked to the counter and took out a neatly folded silk handkerchief from her sleeve.

The layers were uncovered, and a broken jasper hibiscus hairpin lay quietly inside.

Fu Tinghan put away the cigarette gun, and a deep meaning flashed in his eyes.

Isn't this hosta from Ying Yunxuan?

He remembered that it was Shen Changfeng who asked him to go, as if he was ...... It was given to a servant girl named Nan Rong.

Tsk, his good cousin's rotten peach blossoms are not ordinary......
