The Southern Song Dynasty built the capital of Nanjing, the era name was Jianyan, and the Northern Song Dynasty died.

The wind is slight, the drizzle is like smoke, on the West Lake, the stars are dotted, the green water is blue, and the water and sky are the same color. Talented and beautiful, you are more interested. On the cruise, the piano is played and the flute is played, and the warbler sings and dances.

Among the many cruise ships, there is a double-decker painting boat, vermilion lacquer carved railing, cornices color painting, much more gorgeous than other cruise ships. But what really makes the surrounding cruise ships flock to it is not the painting boat, but the sound of the piano coming from the upper floor of the painting boat.

On the piano platform, the sound of the piano is slowly flowing out through the yarn, the drizzle is accompanied by the sound of the piano, quietly sprinkled into the water, the wind supports the sound of the piano, caressing the surrounding pleasure boats, West Lake, quiet! The surrounding ship does not move, quiet! The pearl falls on the jade plate, with an ethereal spirit, the silver bottle is broken, and the peak turns around, washing the soul and emptiness.

The woman in the sedan chair has not yet gotten off the sedan chair, the vermilion lacquer door has been opened, and a person dressed as a housekeeper ran out quickly, stopped in front of the man, bent down to beat, and whispered: "Childe, something happened," "What's the matter?" The man asked, "Something happened to the brother of the pothos," the housekeeper replied closely, the man listened, signaled not to say any more, and hurriedly walked to the small sedan chair, at this time the woman had already stepped down from the small sedan chair, "Sister, brother pothos, it seems that something happened" The man whispered, the woman glanced at the man, and then looked at the back,

The housekeeper with low eyebrows, "Let's go in and talk about it," he glanced at the man again, his face was as usual, "Okay," the man replied, Zishan helped the woman forward, and the man called the housekeeper to follow and entered the villa.

The ripples are wrinkled, on the pond water, the white stone slab, slightly arched, a small bridge is erected, to the water pavilion in the pool, the courtyard is faint, the strange fragrance is attacked, I don't know where the strange grass fairy vine is emitted, the pond water and the Yonglu are intertwined, the vines are drawn to the vines, the unknown grass, the mountain stone is entangled, the clear stream in the pond is twisted and turned from the stone, the grass and the vine, and then it is poured under the stone gap.

"Steward Lin, let's talk about it, what's going on with Brother Lutho," the man asked

Steward Lin raised his head and began to tell what happened: "Brother Luthos, named Hong Shan, is an apprentice in a pharmacy, a few days ago, a person came to the pharmacy, about fifty years old, to catch two flavors of medicine, is grabbing the empty medicine, the man suddenly fainted, Hong Shan hurriedly and two guys, carried the man to the back of the pharmacy, Hong Shan gave the patient a pulse, let the guy take two pills and feed it, after a while the patient woke up, saw himself lying on the bed, wanted to do it, thank you Hong Shan, Hong Shan hurriedly let him lie down, the patient glanced at the guy, It seems that there is something to say, Hong Shan understands, let the guy go out first and take care of the pharmacy outside.

The man looked at the house, only he and Hong Shan were left, so he said to Hong Shan: "I live near the pharmacy, observe you, and have been for a while, I want to entrust you to help me do something, I wanted to observe for a while, but my illness has relapsed today, I think I have no more days, I can only tell you now, I hope you agree," After speaking, he looked at Hong Shan earnestly, Hong Shan listened to what the patient said, his heart was confused, and he looked at the patient blankly, the patient did not wait for Hong Shan to ask, took out a cloth bag from his body, and took out a butterfly jade pendant from the cloth bag, He took out two ingots of silver, which were fifty taels, and said to Hong Shan: "This jade pendant was entrusted to me by someone else and handed over to a woman in Bianliang, but my body is no longer good, it is impossible to go to Bianliang, I look at the little master, very kind, I want to entrust it to you, you must not refuse, these fifty taels of silver are honorarium," Hong Shan at this time, only to understand, Hong Shan pondered for a while, and finally agreed, the patient at this time, I don't know where the strength came from, sat up from the bed, got off the ground, "Bang bang!" Kneeling and kowtowing, Hong Shan hurriedly helped him up, and said to the patient: "It can't be like this, I promised you, the matter must be done for you, the patient lifted his shirt, took out a piece of paper from his underwear, and handed it to Hong Shan, "This is the name and address of the Bianliang woman, you put it away," Hong Shan took the paper and put it away, and pushed the silver to the patient, "I will do a good job, you take the silver two back, and then find a famous doctor to see your disease," the patient smiled bitterly: "My illness has no cure, it's just a mess of time, you take this silver tael, and use it on the road," after several excuses, Hong Shan accepted the silver, the patient thanked him again, and then left.

Hongshan has a small hair, pothos also knows, is a small trader selling medicinal materials, he from the Bianliang area, purchased a batch of medicinal materials, unfortunately during transportation, encountered a storm, the medicinal materials were wet, when delivered, due to the quality is not good, lost a lot of money, due to the money for the goods, part of it is borrowed, all repaid, there are more than 70 taels, this money is mortgaged with the deed, not on, will be used to offset the account, there is really no way to send a small number, just find Hongshan. Hongshan apprentice, only earn two taels of silver a year, where to find seventy taels of silver, later, Hongshan thought of the commission delivered by the patient, leaving behind the silver and jade pendant, the silver is not enough, the jade pendant can pawn some silver taels, maybe can help Fa Xiao, get through the current level, and then find a way to redeem it, Hong Shan and Fa Xiaoyi discussed, it can only be like this, take one step at a time.

The jade pendant was a hundred taels of silver, the two were so happy that they repaid the account, there were more than seventy taels left, and the two agreed to let Fa Xiao go to Hebei again, purchase a batch of medicinal materials, come back and sell it, and make money, so they redeemed the jade pendant.

Fa Xiao purchased medicinal materials, sold medicinal materials, all went very smoothly, made money, Hong Shan two, took the silver two to the pawnshop to redeem, the pawnshop guy told Hong Shan, the schedule has passed, can not be redeemed, Hong Shan quarreled with the buddy, the guy said a few ugly words, Hong Shan and Fa Xiao, just hit the pawnshop guy, the noise, alarmed the pawnshop shopkeeper, the shopkeeper came out to see, shouted: "What person, dare to be wild in the pawnshop," Hong Shan saw that the pawnshop shopkeeper came out, so he stopped his hand, and said to the shopkeeper: "I am redeemed, When the current period of the thing is only five days later, it can not be redeemed, my pawn is a butterfly jade pendant, the jade pendant is a friend, entrusted to me to hand over the object to others, the shopkeeper, can you do well, raise your noble hand, give me a ransom, "said Hong Shan and Fa Xiao, bent down to the shopkeeper to salute, after the shopkeeper listened, changed his face just now and said to Hong Shan: "The jade pendant is impossible to redeem you, the jade pendant is fancied, the owner a few days ago, came to take it away, you have defaulted because of the deadline, but look at you are very short of money, The pawnshop can only give you some compensation", after saying that, he instructed the man, take another hundred taels of silver, and give it to Hong Shan as compensation, Hong Shan heard that he would give another hundred taels, and secretly thought, how much does this jade pendant know? , must be more than two hundred taels, even if it is worth two hundred taels, he is entrusted by others, can not agree, Hong Shan thinks, and negotiate with the shopkeeper again, and then, Hong Shan and Fa Xiao, and the shopkeeper fight, the shopkeeper ordered, the pawnshop guy, quickly tied up the two, the shopkeeper told Hong Shan Fa Xiao: "Hong Shan is going to be sent to the Nanjing East family's house, you find money to redeem people," after saying that the shopkeeper ordered someone to blast off the small, Fa Xiao knew this, he couldn't solve it, remembered that Hongshan had a sister, in Guiyan Villa to do things, only to rush to the villa to report, unfortunately, the pothos accompanied the owner to visit the West Lake,"

After Steward Lin finished speaking, he took out a note, handed it to the man and said, "This is the address of the pawnshop owner in Nanjing," and then, looking at the man and the woman quietly, "Okay, you go down first," the man said, "Yes," Steward Lin agreed, bowed, and walked outside.

"Zi Shan move a stool and sit down," the woman's voice was still soft, Zichai moved a soft stool with velvet and sat next to the woman, the woman said: "Brother, you see how this matter is handled," "I'll go to Nanjing, where to see what the situation is, and then make a decision", the man said, "It's okay, when you get to Nanjing, you have to pay more attention to everything, and you can't make any mistakes," the woman glanced at Zi Shan: "Do you have any ideas?" "It's best to rescue Brother Luthos successfully, even if it costs some more silver, so that it won't affect Luthos drills," Zishan said slowly, and the woman nodded after listening to it, and said to Zishan; "You go first, prepare some silver taels and younger brother's luggage, by the way, are they back," "Yes," the woman smiled and said to Zishan: "I've told you many times, just the three of us, call me sister, don't call miss, let's come out of the fireworks field, we are sisters," Zishan also smiled and said: "I'm used to it, I'll call me sister in the future", after saying that, Zishan went out, the woman stood up and said to the man, "Let's go inside" "Well," the man followed the woman and walked towards the back of the lobby

"Yan Qing, this time you go out, you can't have an accident, you have to retreat in spite of the difficulties, sister so far, there is only one relative, you can't have an accident, you have two lives on your shoulder, if something happens to you, my sister will also go with you, do you understand," Yan Qing listened to what the teacher said, her eyes were slightly red, and she hugged the teacher and said: "In this life, my brother will always accompany my sister and not leave my sister, and I went to Nanjing this time for my sister's future career," "Yan Qing, I have made countless friends in my life, from the rich to the noble, From literati to heroes, to now, there is only one brother of you, although you are the only one to accompany me, I am content, but you can't have an accident, in this life, life may not be your people, death must be your ghost," Master Li finished speaking, tears gushed out like a spring.

"Sister, what's wrong with you today," said as he used his hand, wiping the tears shed by his teacher,

"I don't know why, I want to cry, I want to hug you," the teacher was a little coquettish

Yan Qing turned around, picked up a silk handkerchief, wiped the tears on the teacher's face, and the teacher used his hand to hold Yan Qing's face, "Yan Qing, you are also old, and the corners of your eyes have climbed into wrinkles, are you tired for your sister in the past few years," "Sister, no, even if you are tired for your sister, it is also worth it," Yan Qing replied softly, the teacher let go of Yan Qing, shook the wind chime, Zichai pushed open the purple carved door, and walked in gently, "Zichai, don't go out to eat tonight, you can bring dinner in a while, and put it on the coffee table, I'll discuss something with my brother, "Hmm" Zichai didn't say much, and went out in response.

Yan Qing looked at the teacher, "What are you doing in a daze?" As he spoke, he took Yan Qing's arm and walked towards the gums inside........

In the early hours of the morning, Yan Qing got up gently. Quietly went to the ground, turned around and covered the pink summer quilt for the teacher, got dressed, and walked out of the room.

The teacher opened his eyes, looked at Yan Qing's back, and said secretly, Go early and come back early, my sister is waiting for you to come back at home, and the tears that flowed out wet the pillow........

Coming down from upstairs, Yan Qing saw Zichai and was waiting downstairs, "Why did you get up so early," "I know that Gongzi is going to go far away and serve Gongzi here", Zichai smiled and said, "It's hard, don't do this next time, it's okay to have someone," Yan Qing said a little apologetically, "Then what kind of line, Gongzi goes out, I should be serving," Yan Qing was a little moved, but didn't say anything, Pack up, eat a few bites at will, and prepare to go, Before going out, Zi Shan handed the silver ticket to Yan Qing, "When you get there, you can solve it with money, Just use the money, if you can't solve it, you will retreat and come back immediately, remember," Yan Qing glanced at Zichai, that serious look, affectionate and affectionate gaze, Yan Qing didn't speak, nodded, and led the horse out of the villa.

The starlight was unknown, and there was a slight moonlight, Yan Qing turned over and got on the horse, shook the reins, and galloped towards the northwest.
