Ping'er thought for a while and said, "Miss! Ping'er doesn't know what to say, Miss is always different from other people's ladies, and knitting girls don't like to learn anything, just thinking about doing something terrible. She often told me this, and I didn't understand it very well......"

Xu Siye asked, "Then did she talk about what kind of person she wants to marry in the future?" ”

"Actually, Mademoiselle never thought of getting married, and she once said to me that if a girl has no husband, is she not considered a living person?"

Xu Siye couldn't help but wonder, this little girl is indeed a little interesting.

"I remember that when the old lady wanted to marry the eldest lady, the young lady was very opposed, and she didn't even go out for two whole days."

In this era, it is really not easy for a girl to have this kind of thinking.

When Xu Youcheng was sacrificed, the words of the old man surnamed Song also made Xu Siye realize that it would be difficult for him to live his life peacefully.

Now that Song Lizong is in power, he is not pro-government, and the power of the court is in the hands of the powerful minister Shi Miyuan, and Shi Miyuan is the only big man in the Southern Song Dynasty who can be on par with Qin Hui in terms of infamy.

This person acted arbitrarily, covering the sky with one hand, killing important ministers in vain, abolishing the emperor, and making the current Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty his puppet.

Although in later history, Shi Miyuan's loyalty, treachery, good and evil have always been debated, but no matter what, Xu Siye does not want to be an official in the same dynasty as such a person.

Not to mention Xu Siye in his previous life, he had already had enough of the officialdom, so it was not a wise move to enter the official career. The children of the Lin family are all studying hard, but Xu Siye thought of another way.

The Song Dynasty did not emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce, on the contrary, the commerce of the Song Dynasty was very developed.

Now his nominal wife Lin Yu is also in business, but she is still young, although she has become a family early, she is far worse than those merchants.

Xu Siye can see that Lin Yu is a very assertive girl. Judging from the fact that she ran away from marriage, at least she was unwilling to follow her parents' wishes in such a vague way and follow a sick son for the rest of her life.

Even if she can come back, she will never accept a husband like herself, who she has never met, although Xu Siye doesn't care about such a little girl, after all, she can be her father at the age of her previous life.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Siye shook his head and said, "It's nothing, let's go." ”

The two of them went back to the Lin Mansion, and Lin Yaoming, the old lady of Lin, specially invited Xu Siye to go and told him about it again.

Lin Yaoming said that he would definitely reprimand Lin Yu harshly and let her be Xu Siye's wife obediently.

At dawn the next day, Xu Siye didn't say hello to the others, and secretly went out by himself and came to the thirteen alleys in the wicker alley that the old man said.

This is also apparently the mansion of a wealthy man, and the sign at the door reads "Lu Mansion".

Xu Siye knocked on the door, and after a while, a subordinate came to answer the door.

"This son, who are you looking for?"

As soon as he was tired, he said...... The man who sold the painting arrived. ”

After the man entered the house for a while, he came back and said, "This son, our lord invited the son to the main hall to talk." ”

Saying that, the man brought Xu Siye to the main hall.

Although this mansion is not as good as the Lin family, it can afford to be a mansion. The indoor display and furnishings are obviously everyone's handiwork.

Xu Siye came to the main hall to sit upright, and the next person brought tea and snacks, and after a while, the old man he saw yesterday walked out, saw Xu Siye looked up and down, stepped forward and said: "This son, yesterday's Danqing wonderful pen, is it from the hand of the son?" ”

"Don't dare, exactly." Xu Siye said.

"The old man's surname is Lu, dare to ask Gongzi's surname?" The old man said.

"Don't give your surname Xu." Xu Siye said.

Mr. Lu said: "It turned out to be Mr. Xu, and the little old man is polite." Yesterday, I wanted to buy Childe's painting, but Childe was not there at the time, so Xiao Lao'er took it upon himself to take the painting back, and asked Childe not to be surprised. ”

"The old gentleman is too polite." Xu Siye returned the salute.

"It's just Childe, Xiao Lao'er has one thing, please don't worry about it."

Xu Siye smiled slightly and said, "Does Mr. Lu want to show the old man his painting skills to prove that the painting is indeed from his own hand?" ”

Mr. Lu sighed: "Mr. Xu is a good point, it's not that he doesn't believe in Mr. Xu, it's just that he ......."

Xu Siye smiled and waved his hand, and said, "What's so difficult about this, take a piece of charcoal." ”

Mr. Lu was slightly stunned, he had never heard of anyone who could paint with charcoal, and immediately ordered someone to fetch charcoal and rice paper.

Xu Siye picked up the charcoal and drew the old man's appearance on rice paper in the form of realistic sketches.

It's so lifelike it's like a photo. The old man was stunned when he saw it, and immediately bowed to Xu Siye.

"I never expected that Xu Gongzi was so young that he would have such a heavenly pen, and the little old man admired it! Please accept my worship! ”

Xu Siye stretched out his hand to support the old man, and just wanted to say that he didn't have to be polite, but the old man said again: "The little old man has something to ask for, and please don't excuse yourself!" ”

As soon as Xu Siye heard this, he faintly had a bad premonition in his heart.

I'm just here to get the money from selling paintings, but don't get into other troubles, it's not worth it to put your idle life into it for this hundred taels of silver.

The old man saw Xu Siye's hesitant expression, and said with a smile: "Xu Gongzi doesn't have to be embarrassed, if you don't mention it today, the little old man will immediately give you a hundred taels of silver." ”

As he spoke, Lu Laohan ordered someone to bring a silver ticket of one hundred taels of silver and handed it to Xu Siye.

Xu Siye was not polite or shirked, and received the silver ticket of one hundred taels of silver into his arms. Strange to say, as soon as the silver arrived, Xu Siye only felt that the qi in his chest was relieved a lot.

The feeling of being rich is different, and I immediately have the confidence, this hundred taels of silver will not let me starve to death no matter what, even if I am immediately swept away by the Lin family now, I don't have to care.

Xu Siye really couldn't imagine that his first income after crossing over was from such a small hobby.

"Thank you, sir, I wonder when you need to serve?" Xu Siye said.

When Mr. Lu said this, he suddenly shook his head with a smile and said, "I can't say it today, but Xu Gongzi will naturally know about it in the future." Can you please tell Xu Gongzi where to leave it, so that the little old man can visit. ”

Xu Siye hesitated for a moment and said, "Chengxi Lin family." ”

Seeing off Xu Siye, Mr. Lu breathed a deep sigh of relief. Looking at the painting that Xu Siye improvised and copied, a subtle smile appeared on his face.
