Tomorrow is 515, the anniversary of the starting point, and the day with the most benefits. In addition to the gift bag and school bag, this time's "515 Red Envelope Flip" must be seen, how can there be a reason not to grab the red envelope, set the alarm clock high~

Only then did Shen Xi know that this teahouse was not an ordinary teahouse, but a gold cave.

Zhou Fatzi opened this teahouse not to serve ordinary people, specifically to receive people with status and status, not a green building, probably similar to the private club of later generations, not only always prepared tea and wine, but also bathed and healthy, and more beautiful women served.

Zhou Fatzi is by no means a businessman who is at ease, he can do business under the feet of the Son of Heaven and gradually rise, if there is no means to win people, this is impossible. Outsiders say that he picks the door, but that is only because he is well versed in the law of low-key, if it is said that he makes friends with powerful people and attracts people, Zhou Fatzi is definitely a master.

A total of six flower-like girls came in with tea or wine, all of them bowed down, kneeling in two rows at the door, bowing their heads, each girl was young, wearing heavy makeup, and she could smell the strong aroma of fat powder from afar.

"Seventh son, do you have a favorite?" Fat Zhou asked with a smile.

Shen Xi just glanced at it, pretending to be a little overwhelmed, and his face was embarrassed: "I am still young and don't understand these things very well......

Zhou Fatzi laughed: "That's better, I don't understand, I can let these girls teach the Seventh Son, if you want to say that the Seventh Son is a young man, there will be no less drama in the future, if you always don't know this, it will always be inappropriate." Xiaomei, come over to toast the Seventh Prince. ”

In front of her, a girl who looked quite delicate stood up, moved to Shen Xi's side, knelt down again, put down the tray she was dragging down, poured a glass of wine with the wine jug and wine glass in the tray, and handed the wine glass to Shen Xi with shame, and leaned towards Shen Xi along with her body: "Seventh son, please drink." ”

To say that this is not the first time that Shen Xi has faced this romantic battle. Last time, Xi'er approached him in this way, and sat directly on his lap.

Shen Xi avoided slightly: "I won't drink alcohol in the next place." ”

Zhou Fatzi was slightly stunned, and then laughed dumbly: "The seventh prince hasn't even touched the wine?" Then you have to try it, between the colors of this wine. It is the foundation of a man's life, not an offense to the contemptible people, when the seventh prince was old, he already had several wives and concubines around him, and he drank a lot of wine. ”

Shen Xi looked at the appearance of Zhou Fatzi's pampered body, wide body, and fat body. It doesn't seem to be from the bottom of the struggle, he himself said that his ancestral home is Jiangxi, and Jiangxi businessmen are very famous in this era, it should be the foundation passed down by the ancestors, but it has been passed on to his generation, and the business has come to the capital.

Born in such a merchant family, he would not aspire to take the imperial examination since he was a child, or when he was about ten years old, he had to follow his father to travel far away to do a business of buying low and selling high, and the children of ordinary businessmen got married very early. This is to prevent the heirs from being left behind.

People who do business have a lot of entertainment, and drinking is inevitable, so for Zhou Fatzi, wine and sex are "professional needs".

Shen Xi is a reader, and what the reader advocates is "the book has its own golden house, and the book has its own Yan Ruyu", I have everything in the books I read, what good is the wine for me?

Shen Xi refused to drink. Zhou Fatzi also thought that Shen Xi was pretending to be a gesture. "This cup should be contemptible and respectful to the Seventh Prince......" As he spoke, he took the wine glass himself, and pushed it into Shen Xi's arms together with the girl named Xiaomei.

It doesn't matter if you push it, the wine spills. splashed Shen Xi's body.

Shen Xi hurriedly wiped it, Xiaomei, who was almost nestled in his arms, hurriedly took out the handkerchief to help, and kept touching Shen Xi's body with his hand.

Shen Xi stood up, slightly annoyed: "Master Zhou, now you and I are doing things for the imperial court." How can you make a mistake because of drinking? ”

Zhou Fatzi was stunned: "A few glasses of water and wine, how can you make a mistake?" ”

Shen Xi said: "Zhou Dangjia has a large amount, don't talk about it, but he is still young in the next year, he has never drunk, if he has two or three glasses of stomach, he can't afford to get drunk, and the Jade Dangjia has something to find to delay, can Zhou Dangjia afford it?" ”

Although Zhou Fatzi didn't think so, he still saluted respectfully: "The seventh prince reminded me." ”

Shen Xi felt that there was no need to stay, looked out the window, and said: "If it is not early today, I will leave here, if there is anything to do with the Zhou family, just send someone to the Dongsheng Inn to find it." ”

Zhou Fatzi wanted to win over Shen Xi with wine, but it backfired and he felt a little helpless.

But fortunately, the two had a bit of a friendship before, after all, he paid for Shen Xi's paintings when he was young, and presumably Shen Xi would not turn his face because of this. He personally sent Shen Xi outside the teahouse, and let his carriage and coachman send Shen Xi back, as diligent as Shen Xi's domestic servant.

……

……

Shen Xi did not go to the Dongsheng Inn first, but went to see Su Tong. Originally, he wanted to go with Su Tong to meet Zhu Zhishan, but now that he is doing things for Jiang Liwei, he can only clean up his mood and have no way to go to the appointment.

Su Tong was quite embarrassed: "Originally, they all said that they would go together, but now they suddenly say that they can't go, will the surnamed Zhu take the opportunity to maliciously slander?" ”

Shen Xi said: "Zhu Zhishan wants to spread rumors and slander, let him go." I just don't know in the end, whether others are laughing at us or himself. He must have made this clear. ”

Su Tong smiled and asked, "Brother Shen, what happened to you all afternoon?" ”

Shen Xi naturally wouldn't tell him about seeing Jiang Liwei calmly, and even hid the matter of seeing Yu Niang in his heart. Shen Xi just said that he had gone out to meet his friends, and there was an important agreement tomorrow, and then got up to say goodbye.

Shen Xi didn't expect that Tang Hu and the others would be intercepted back by Jiang Liwei, doesn't that mean that Jiang Liwei had already planned when they entered the city, so his current residence is not a secret from Jiang Liwei and Yu Niang.

Back at the Dongsheng Inn, Shen Xi specially paid attention to the surroundings of the inn, and did not find anything abnormal, but on the second floor of the opposite shop, someone was peeking outside, needless to say that it was Jiang Liwei's eyeliner.

Shen Xi entered the inn room, and Tang Hu and the others explained the situation after leaving the city: "...... Before we arrived in Tongzhou and boarded the boat, we were intercepted, and the other party was all dressed as officials, and we did not dare to resist. After that, we were blindfolded, I don't know where we went, as long as we moved a little, we would fist and kick each other, and for the past two days we were only given a few mouthfuls of food every day, and we were so hungry that we almost ran out of energy. ”

Jiang Liwei is quite polite. just added fists and kicks to Tang Hu and others, and did not serve them severely, which also did not want to make the relationship between the two sides too stiff.

Now Shen Xi is coerced by Jiang Liwei to "help", but he doesn't even know the specific plan and action steps. I only know that I want to pretend to be a businessman from Tingzhou to talk to people about business.

How to involve the culprit behind the scenes, it's all up to Jiang Liwei.

Where did you Jiang Liwei get the confidence to do everything you can to make the fox appear? Shen Xi didn't have much trust in Jiang Liwei, if he really had the ability. When I was in Tingzhou, I wouldn't have done nothing. In the end, it was Shen Xi who forced each other with interests, and then with Liu Daxia's instructions, Jiang Li only led the troops to rescue, and Hui Niang finally saved the day.

In Shen Xi's eyes, Jiang Liwei is just following the right person, at most he can only run errands, and his own ability has yet to be proven. As for the feasibility of Jiang Liwei's plan to "lure the snake out of the hole", Shen Xi was skeptical.

Something happened, and it wasn't Jiang Liwei who was responsible. It's him Shen Xi......

Shen Xi thought about things and took Zhu Shan back to the rented courtyard.

As soon as he entered the house, Shen Xi saw Lin Dai throwing his pillow and losing his temper there, and after a closer look, it was still his own pillow, and he couldn't help frowning: "What's wrong?" ”

"You've been out all day, what the hell are you doing? Only come back now, you ...... You don't know I'm worried about you at home? ”

Lin Dai is like a little resentful woman who has no anger, as soon as Shen Xi appeared, she finally found a punching bag. Facing Shen Xi is a drink and ask.

Even if Shen Xi was upset, he couldn't be hard-hearted towards Lin Dai after all, so he could only deliberately calm his face and say: "When a man is outside, he has something big to do." How can you dream of indulging in your children's private affairs? Besides, why should I tell you everything? ”

"You're going to fool me with those words...... Woo, I knew I wouldn't come to the capital with you, but I didn't know the place well, and the neighbors didn't know each other, so I couldn't even go out. Where are you going and don't tell me...... Okay, you...... You've drunk and you still smell of powder, you must have gone out to find a woman! ”

Women have a strong sense of crisis, especially Lin Dai, who followed Shen Xi to the capital all the way, and had already hinted at and made it a little reserved, but until now Shen Xi is still "incomprehensible", she will think crankily whenever she has something, she is very sensitive, and she can detect anything wrong with Shen Xi.

If you want to say that she is really right, Shen Xi went out this time, and she saw a lot of women, and she was alone with Yunliu in the carriage, and Zhou Fatzi asked Xiaomei to toast him, so she responded to that sentence, and men are indispensable for socializing outside. But Zhu Shan listened and hurriedly explained to Shen Xi: "Miss, you misunderstood, the young master went out to find two sons, not women." ”

Zhu Shan has a stupid brain, and a straight intestine can't lie.

Lin Dai can not believe Shen Xi's words, but she still has to believe Zhu Shan's words. Thanks to Zhu Shan's straightforward eyes, when he saw that Yu Niang was a man, he thought it was a son, and when he went to the suburbs later, he saw another son, and Shen Xi didn't take her with him when he went to see Zhou Fatzi, so he made such remarks.

But even if Lin Dai believed it, she didn't admit it, and continued to mess around: "You're just going to find a woman, woo, ignore me......"

Lin Dai ran into the house and whimpered on her bed.

When a girl loses her temper, she will only treat the people she cares about the most, and she is crying at this time is actually waiting for Shen Xi to coax her. But with Shen Xi's habits, even if Lin Dai makes a fuss, she may not be able to speak. Lin Dai was both looking forward to it and sad in her heart, all kinds of emotions were mixed together, and she cried more and more sadly.

Just when she couldn't cry, Shen Xi pressed her shoulder from behind, and it turned out that Shen Xi also followed the room: "Okay, I'll tell you anything in the future, I should accompany you more, it's always okay, right?" ”

"No...... You've had the New Year...... I'm going to go to Taixue, and I haven't seen you for a long time......"

Shen Xi didn't come to coax before, Lin Dai refused to get up, but now that Shen Xi has come to coax her, she enjoys the feeling of being loved by Shen Xi, and she can't get up.

Shen Xi said: "Then after this test, will we get married?" ”

Lin Dai suddenly stopped crying, sat up, looked at Shen Xi in a daze, didn't even have time to wipe the tears, and after a while, she asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Shen Xi said: "That is to say, after the test, we will get married." ”

Lin Dai pouted and said, "But my father and mother are both in Tingzhou." Even if you finish the exam, you still have to study in the capital, won't you be able to return to Tingzhou next summer? ”

Shen Xi smiled: "If you can't get married, we can have a round house first." ”

When Lin Dai heard this, a red cloud rose on her cheeks, and she scolded with a little shame: "Who wants to have a round room with you, shameless, I'll help Ning'er cook." ”

The heart of her daughter's family is cloudy and sunny faster, and she only needs Shen Xi's soft words, she will put aside her previous unhappiness and go to cook for her future father-in-law.
