Warm Spring Pavilion, Hongshan and Hongshan are small, very early to come to Guiyan Villa to wait for Yan Qing, the two of them tasted tea, guessing, what is the matter, the two of them held a teacup, drank tea without intention, all watched, the tea leaves in the teacup, began to tea leaves, floating on the surface of the water, a while slowly sinking, the water from colorless, to light green, finally, from light green, to dark green, tea slowly stretched, revealing tender green leaf buds.

"Squeak," the door opened, Yan Qing walked in, "Li Gongzi," the two hurriedly stood up, clasped their fists and saluted, "Sit down," Yan Qing also sat down, "Hong Shan, is this your hair?" "Yes, his surname is Chang, his name is Chang Dalu," Yan Qing nodded, "Today, I invited the two of you here to cooperate with the two of you," "Cooperation?" As soon as the two of them heard this, they asked in unison, Yan Qing nodded, "You both know medicinal materials, one understands medical skills, and the other understands trade, I want to partner with the two of you, I will pay, you two will contribute, I will use the money to buy shares, you two will contribute to the shares, make money, share according to the shares, whether the two of you are willing," Chang Dalu heard it, Yan Qing paid the money, and immediately became interested, Hongshan didn't know much about trade, and his eyes looked at Fa Xiao, "Li Gongzi, can you tell me how much money you invested?" Da Lu asked cautiously, Yan Qing looked at the two of them again, "Because Hongshan is the elder brother of Lu Luo, Da Lu is also very righteous, I am very relieved of the two of you, so, the first batch of investment of 1,000 taels, if the income is stable, and then additional investment, the maximum investment is 4,000 taels, shares, I account for 50 percent, you two each account for 25 percent, after I make additional investment, the equity remains unchanged, the two of them listened to Yan Qing's words, they were stunned, and they didn't speak for a long time," "Why don't you want to," Yan Qing asked, "Willing, willing," The address of the opening, I will let you take you there in a while, and you can buy the things you need

Discuss the big problems with me, and the two of you will deal with the small problems, "You two see, is this okay?" "Yes, yes," then decide like this first, after a while, the housekeeper will come over and sign a contract with you," Yan Qing's voice just fell, the door was pushed open again, Zishan walked in with Luluo, Steward Chang followed, Hong Shan and Fa Xiao hurriedly stood up, Luluo saw her brother and smiled lightly. Looking at Yan Qing, Yan Qing knew what Lu Luo wanted to say, and said to Lu Luo: Our business is over, you say goodbye to your brother, there may be fewer opportunities to meet in the future," Hong Shan was stunned, Lu Luo hurriedly walked over, "Brother, in a few days, I will go to Nanjing, teacher, Li Gongzi have all passed, when will I come back, it is not decided, if there is something, you can find Sister Zishan, Lu Luo said, her eyes were already full of tears, "Yan Qing came over, called Zishan, and then said to Hong Shan: If there is something in the future, I am not here, just look for Zishan, Zi Shan glanced at Hong Shan and said, "I don't understand the trade matters, you two will worry more about it in the future, if you have a problem, you can go to Nanjing Dulong Fort to find me," Zi Shan finished speaking, Yan Qing took out a thousand taels of silver tickets and handed them to Zi Shan, "After a while, the housekeeper will sign a contract with Hongshan and the mainland, and after the contract is signed, he will hand over the thousand taels of silver tickets to Hong Shan, Zi Shan took the silver ticket, the housekeeper has come over, Yan Qing explained a few more words, and went out, the contract was signed quickly, Zi Shan received a contract and gave the silver ticket to Hong Shan, Luluo was startled when she saw her brother take the silver ticket, Luluo hadn't seen so much money yet, and quietly asked her brother, "Brother, why did Zishan give you so much money," "Sister, my brother and Dalu cooperated with Li Gongzi to do a medicinal herb business, Li Gongzi paid for it, and I two contributed," Luluo heard that Li Gongzi gave his brother so much money, and he was secretly worried in his heart, "Brother, you must do a good job, don't make mistakes, make mistakes, I'm sorry Li Gongzi," "Brother knows, you can go to Nanjing with confidence," Hong Shan saw that he didn't mention the jade pendant, Knowing that Li Gongzi didn't tell his sister, he was relieved, and said some homely things to his sister, so he said goodbye to his sister and left.

Pothos, looking at his brother's back, felt sad for a while

Luluo, formerly known as Hong Xiaomei, when her brother and sister were young, there was a flood in her hometown, and her parents died, and since then, her brother and sister begged for food for a living.

One day, when I walked to a village, the sky was full of dark clouds, and the ground was black and low, as if it was going to crush the mountain, the tree, and the village, and the wind blew people could not open their eyes, and the sky and the earth were discolored.

The two brothers hurriedly walked to a courtyard, the elder brother helped the younger sister, sat down by the bamboo fence wall, and the elder brother ran to the nearby pond, folded two lotus leaves, looked at the sky, and looked at the younger sister who had not eaten for two days, closed his eyes tightly, and felt sad for a while.

The rain poured like a splash on the body of the elder brother and sister, the elder brother pressed the lotus leaf on his head with one hand, and the other hand, holding the lotus leaf, shielded the rainstorm for the younger sister, looking at the younger sister's face, white and white, the elder brother was sad and shed tears, and the rain flowed down together.

The summer rain came and went quickly, and after a while, the rain stopped, and my brother fell asleep tiredly.

On this day, Yan Qing went out to run errands, happened to pass by here, and also caught up with this rainstorm, sheltered from the rain in the tavern, drank, the rain stopped, hurriedly got on the horse and hurried away, just walked a short distance, and saw the brother and sister sleeping by the fence wall, Yan Qing was curious, how could he sleep here in such a heavy rain?

Dismounted, stepped forward, greeted twice, did not respond, Yan Qing hurriedly bent down, touched the girl, the forehead was hot, fever, although the boy was fine, but also fainted, Yan Qing hurriedly, hugged the two on the horse, asked the fellow, where is there a pharmacy, under the guidance of the fellow, soon arrived at the pharmacy, carried people into the pharmacy, the pharmacy sat in the hall, is an old man in his sixties, with a white beard, kind eyebrows, seeing someone come in, hurriedly stepped forward, let the two children, put them on the bed, the old gentleman checked the pulse, after diagnosing the pulse said to Yan Qing, "The boy should be fine, but he is hungry and faint, the girl has a fever, and it will be fine if he eats a few pairs of decoctions," Yan Qing looked at the old gentleman, and then at the two children, "Old gentleman, I want to entrust you with one thing, these two children, may be orphans, let the two of them be treated here, the illness is cured, let the two of them wait for me, I will go to do one thing, come back to pick them up" After speaking, Yan Qing took out a piece of silver, about fifty taels, and handed it to the old gentleman, "This silver tael, you take it for treatment first, the money is not enough, I will give it to you when I come back," "Enough, enough!" The old gentleman replied repeatedly, and after Yan Qing finished instructing, he hurriedly got on the horse and left.

Yan Qing finished her errands and returned to the pharmacy, it was five days later, Yan Qing walked into the pharmacy, the old gentleman saw Yan Qing coming in, and hurriedly stepped forward, "Childe is back," "As soon as the matter was done, I hurried back, how were the two children, "Okay, okay," After speaking, he greeted a boy who was working, "Hongshan, greet the little sister, go to the back hall with me, and the son will also go to the back hall with the old man, where it is more convenient to talk," Yan Qing nodded and walked with the old man towards the back hall.

Entering the back hall, the two sat down, Hong Shan and the little sister also came in, the old gentleman pointed to Yan Qing and said to Hong Shan: He is your savior, if it wasn't for the son who sent you that day, perhaps, your brothers and sisters are no longer alive," the Hongshan brothers and sisters listened to the old man, fell to their knees, and kowtowed three times, "Thank you, son," Yan Qing picked up the brother and sister, and looked at the girl carefully, the girl has good facial features, clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, although she is dressed plainly, she is still very beautiful, Yan Qing imagined that she would take the teacher to her own manor, and there was nothing to do in the manor, I'm afraid that the teacher will be upset, if I find a disciple and let the teacher teach, I will definitely be like the teacher in the future, so that the teacher will not be lonely, this girl should be a good candidate.

After thinking about it, Yan Qing asked Hongshan about the situation of his brothers and sisters, and the brothers and sisters answered one by one, Yan Qing said after listening, "I have a sister, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, should be superior, I really want to accept a disciple, if your brothers and sisters are willing, the younger sister can go to learn art with my sister, if Hongshan has no whereabouts at present, you can also go back to the manor together and find something to do in the manor,"

The little sister looked at her brother, Hong Shan knew that the little sister was asking for her own opinion, these days, Hong Shan followed the old gentleman to do things, he was particularly interested in being a doctor, not only can he cure diseases and save people, but he can also eat enough, he looked up at Yan Qing and said, "Gongzi is our brother and sister's life-saving benefactor, and also arranges a livelihood for our brother and sister, our brother and sister have nothing to repay in this life," After speaking, he knelt down again, and the little sister saw her brother kneeling, and also knelt down, "Hongshan, what are you?" "Childe, you listen to me, I will leave the little sister to you, take care of the little sister at the manor, as an elder brother, I thank the son first," Yan Qing hurriedly helped the brother and sister again, Hong Shan then said, "I want to learn medicine from the old man, and after I finish my studies in the future, I can cure the sick and save people, so as to repay the son's life-saving grace," Yan Qing listened to Hong Shan's words, turned his head and asked the old man if he agreed, the old man looked at Yan Qing and asked, "Dare to ask where the son lives, can you tell the old man", "I live in Hangzhou," Yan Qing replied, "Coincidentally, the old man has a junior brother, In Hangzhou, if Hong Shan is willing, I can write a letter and hand it over to the junior brother, and Hong Shan can go to his apprentice, so that the Hongshan brothers and sisters are very close, and it is convenient to have something, "Yan Qing was very happy to hear it, and Hong Shan also agreed to go to Hangzhou, the old gentleman saw that he agreed, and hurriedly took out a pen and paper, wrote a letter, and handed it to Yan Qing, Yan Qing took the letter, and took out fifty taels of silver to the old gentleman, and the old gentleman accepted it several times. Yan Qing and the three thanked the old gentleman again and set foot on the road back to Hangzhou.

"Lushan, we should go back too" Zishan's words interrupted Lushan's thoughts, "Sister Zishan, isn't it, when we get to Nanjing, we won't be able to see Gongzi?" "Childe is also going, but we are staying in someone else's house, in order for us to be able to go out of the mountain this time, Childe cooperates with others, I'm afraid the days at home are numbered," Zishan explained to Luluo, "Is Childe here today?" The pothos asked again, "It should be there, maybe in my room, tidying up," "Can I go and see Childe?" The pothos lowered her eyebrows and asked, "Yo, how did our pothos become like this today, it's timid, let's go and find Childe," After speaking, he dragged the pothos and walked towards Childe's residence.

When she arrived at Yan Qing's room, Zi Shan knocked on the door, "Who?" Zishan, Luluo sees that you are here," Zishan replied, the door opened, Yan Qing smiled and said, if you have something to call me over, why are you still looking for a room, please come in, they are all rare guests," After speaking, he made a gesture of please, which made Zishan giggle.

Yanqing's room furnishings are very simple, a large Nanmu bed, white silk tent, opposite the bed, is a Nanmu wardrobe, carved with dark flowers, there is a coffee table by the window, there is a purple pottery teapot on it, several small purple pottery tea bowls, on the west wall, hang a bow, there is a spoke lady on the east wall, a plain wrap, light pink makeup, a light jasper hairpin obliquely inserted on the cloud temples. How is this portrait so familiar, it is a teacher, pothos's heart is beating, and then look closely, it's really a teacher, looking at the furnishings of the room, pothos tears can't stop flowing down, his benefactor, living so simply, far worse than himself, pothos can't figure it out, has the benefactor's money been spent on others? I just saw the 1,000 taels of silver ticket for my brother again, "Pothos, what's wrong, what do you think of again," Yan Qing asked, "No, it may be that a small worm has entered her eyes, now it's okay," Luluo knows that she has lost her temper, "Sister Zishan, can I stay alone with Childe for a while," "Yes, "Childe, you can't bully our little beauty," Zishan laughed and walked out of the room.

Yan Qing saw Zishan go out and asked Luluo to sit down, Luluo still lowered her head and stood still, "Childe is here, Luluo doesn't dare to sit," Yan Qing smiled, Luluo has really grown up, and she is still disobedient, Luluo raised her head in a panic, "Childe," "Luthos, from today on, I am commensurate with your brother and sister, when no one is around, just call me brother, don't always call Gongzi, Gongzi, save you, don't mention it from now on, you study with your sister, you are so good, you have already repaid me," "Can you really call Gongzi brother?" "It's all said, don't call it Childe, still call," "Don't say it, then I'll call it brother, brother," "Well," Yan Qing responded with a smile, and the tears of the pothos flowed out again, "Brother, are you, are you going to leave the pothos, no matter the pothos," Yan Qing looked at the pothos with tears, sad and sad, the whole painful beauty, Yan Qing picked up a silk handkerchief and helped the pothos wipe her tears, the pothos hugged Yan Qing homeopathically, her head lay on Yan Qing's shoulder, and she kept crying, and soon Yan Qing felt that her shoulders were wet, Yan Qing gently let go of the hand that was holding her and pulled the pothos to sit down, "Little sister, what's wrong with you today," "Brother, you haven't answered me yet?" Are you going to leave Xiaomei," "Listen to whom, I will go to Nanjing with you and live together, in the future, there may be fewer opportunities to meet, but I will not leave Xiaomei,"

"Really, pothos confirmed again," "Really" Yan Qing said seriously, "Brother, the portrait on the wall, is it a teacher," "Yes, it was given to me by my sister a few years ago, and I have always kept it," does my brother like the teacher very much," Lu Qing asked, "Yes," Yan Qing replied, "Does my brother like pothos?" "I like it," Yan Qing replied to the voice of the pothos, and as soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it, "Really," Yan Qing looked at the pothos and asked, and quickly said, "The little sister is so beautiful, anyone will like it," "I don't want others to like it, I just want my brother to like it," the pothos said seriously, and looked at Yan Qing with affectionate eyes, Yan Qing glanced at the pothos, understood the purpose of the pothos looking for herself today, Yan Qing didn't want to turn around, so she said directly, "Little sister, you are still young, in the future, the future of the little sister is immeasurable, and she will definitely marry a good family, My brother is just a rough person, and he is in the rivers and lakes, I don't know when he will pass away, and he is not worthy of his little sister's life, "I don't care, I will follow my brother in this life, there is really one day, my brother is gone, I will also go with my brother" After speaking, Lu Luo stood up and hugged Yan Qing again, Lu Luo knew that Yan Qing said that there were fewer meetings, and it was possible that Yan Qing coaxed herself, and the teacher also told her, this time they are going to the land of fireworks, although they only sell their arts, not their bodies, but I don't know which day, It may be involuntarily, although the teacher let himself think about it, if he doesn't want to go, he will stay in Guiyan Villa, and when he is older, he will marry, but the pothos also thinks about it, the teacher has trained her for more than four years, and the food, clothing, and housing are all given by the teacher, Yan Qing also saved his life, and he can't help but go, so the pothos no longer hesitates, and must directly express his attitude to Yan Qing, even if he sells himself in the future, for the first time, he must give it to Yan Qing, Yan Qing is a little panicked here and now, and has just set a parent, this is another beauty, Yan Qing stroked the head of the pothos and said softly, "You get up first, let's talk slowly," the pothos still held Yan Qing and raised her head, brother, I have an idea, you see if it works," Yan Qing heard the little sister say, thinking that she would listen to her own persuasion and was tempted, "What do you think about the little sister, tell me about it," "Brother, you want the little sister's body today, and when there is a suitable person in the future, you will marry, there is no good family, and the little sister can only follow her brother," after the pothos finished speaking, she smiled slightly, looked at Yan Qing, and the pothos knew, If you don't force Yan Qing to agree today, out of this house, it will be all variables, Yan Qing looked at the little sister's gaze, in the past few years, the little sister has not only grown more beautiful, but also her heart has grown up, Yan Qing said ruthlessly, little sister, now you are still young, when you are older, I will definitely marry you," after hearing this, Lu Luo immediately let go of Yan Qing and stretched out his hand, Yan Qing asked strangely, "What do you want," the love object, the love object is given, Yan Qing was forced to be helpless, stood up, opened the wardrobe, took out a brocade box from it, opened it, and took out a jade pendant, Light green, the lotus pattern is shallow, and it was originally bought for pothos, but there are many things to do these days, so I forgot to give it to her, "Is this jade pendant a love object?" The little sister took the jade pendant carefully, it was so beautiful, the green pothos was happy in her heart, and the words in her heart that had been accumulated for two years finally came to fruition, "Thank you, brother," after saying that, she hugged Yan Qing and did not separate for a long time.
