Sure enough, Fang Jinshi walked to the front courtyard with the golden cotton, which immediately aroused everyone's sideways glances, the golden cotton itself is quite a bit of a posture, plus the tall figure, with the red deep clothes from the embroidery hands of the Jingshi Wenxiu Institute, so that all the guests brought the female dependents lost their color.

Fang Jinshi couldn't help but be complacent, feeling a lot of face, he led Huang Jinmian and some people he didn't know to say hello, this hundred flowers will enjoy flowers and drink, and also prepared some grass fighting, cockfighting and other entertainment activities, Fang Jinshi asked people to bring him from Bianliang The peach blossom wine was also offered, and everyone was invited to taste it together.

After a while, a little girl came up to report: "The jewel girl is here." Fang Jinshi looked back, only to see that at the gate, the Baozhu girl brought the girl to the piano master, and walked in, Shi Hao had already rushed over to Fang Jinshi one step ahead, greeted her and said: "The Baozhu girl is a little late, and she should be punished for being rude." ”

Miss Baozhu is dressed up very energetically today, although she still doesn't like to laugh very much, but she has a good attitude towards Shi Hao, and said lightly: "It's Shi Gongzi who came early, and the slave family accepted the punishment." Shi Hao laughed and stood behind her.

Baozhu turned around and walked to Fang Jinshi and said, "Little Master Fang, suddenly there is something urgent on the way to miss the hour, it's late, Baozhu is here to confess to Fang Xiaogongzi." When she spoke, she had involuntarily looked at the golden cotton, beautiful women and men love to look, and women will actually pay attention.

Fang Jinshi said with a smile: "It's just started, it's not too late, Miss Baozhu can come, Fang Mou is already deeply honored." ”

Baozhu bowed deeply again, and Shi Hao stepped forward and said, "Don't be polite anymore, everyone is waiting to listen to Baozhu girl's music." Then he stretched out his arm in front of the orb and said, "I'll take you over there." ”

Fang Jinshi smiled and watched the jewel walk away with Shi Hao, Huang Jinmian took a step closer to him and said in a low voice: "She is the jewel girl you invited?" ”

Fang Jinshi said: "Yes, what do you think?" ”

Huang Jinmian looked at the back of the jewel and said, "No wonder she is very famous, and she is really a national color and heavenly fragrance." ”

Fang Jinshi took advantage of no one's attention, walked up to her and lowered his voice and said in her ear: "This field is yours, if you can't suppress her today, let me lose face, see if I spare you at night." Huang Jinmian grinned, lowered his head and whispered, "I will beg for mercy." He said that he was afraid that others would hear this, so he quickly walked away from him.

Zhou Jinpeng walked over and said: "This scholar is so unreasonable, and he doesn't look at what kind of identity he is!" He was talking about Shi Hao, and he was a little unhappy when he saw that Shi Hao was very attentive to Baozhu, and others couldn't interject.

Fang Jinshi saw Shi Hao and Baozhu talking not far away, Shi Hao took the dried fruit prepared on the table and said to Baozhu: "I didn't expect that there would be such a thing at this time." ”

Baozhu said: "These should have been transported from Guilin Mansion. ”

Shi Hao said: "No wonder, where is the fairy town of the Baozhu girl?" ”

Baozhu said: "The slave family is from the Shandong Cheng clan." ”

This Shandong Chengshi Fang Jinshi didn't know where it was, he turned back to Zhou Jinpeng and said: "This person is my friend, this Hundred Flowers Festival is just for fun, don't pay attention to him." Zhou Jinpeng heard him speak for Shi Hao, so he didn't say anything anymore, and said after a while: "Sun De, the general manager of the Four Seas Firm, sent someone to report, saying that Mr. Meng Da had just returned from Hangzhou Mansion, and he heard that Fang Xiaogongzi had opened this Hundred Flowers Meeting, and Mr. Meng Da and Mr. Sun would come over to support Fang Xiaogongzi in a while. ”

Fang Jinshi immediately raised his head and said seriously: "Mr. Meng Da is coming?" That's a great thing. ”

Zhou Jinpeng said: "Yes, Mr. Meng Da is really too busy, such a big business, thinking about it is also a lot of things and complicated, you have to take care of everything, before Fang Xiaogongzi came, Mr. Meng Da also said that after you arrive, he can breathe a sigh of relief for him." ”

Fang Jinshi said: "Then I'll go to the door to greet you." He walked to the bridge at the door, and saw Ji Changan standing by the wall, looking down at the inscription on the wall, the scenery here is beautiful, and there are always literati when they play, so they write a few sentences on the wall.

Fang Jinshi walked behind him and said, "Shopkeeper Ji is so good at Yaxing." ”

Ji Changan straightened up and said, "Little boy, there are a few sentences here that are very interesting. ”

Fang Jinshi looked at it and said, "I probably don't understand this. He looked at the road he came, at this time the road was quiet, there was no figure, Fang Jinshi said again: "I heard Zhou Jinpeng say, Mr. Meng Da is going to come over to cheer." ”

Ji Changan said: "He is finally willing to show up to see you, but those who come are not good, and those who are good are not coming." ”

Fang Jinshi said: "How do you say this? ”

Ji Chang'an said: "Fang Xiaogongzi is here to open this Hundred Flowers Meeting, and Mr. Meng Da is suddenly coming, that is, he is the main anti-guest, so that everyone understands that he still has the final say in the Four Seas Merchants, and he is your backer." ”

Fang Jinshi said: "What is this, this is the original fact. ”

Ji Changan lowered his voice and said: "Cai Juma came with a letter, asking Cai Meng to transfer two million Song money to you as a book, and let you do tea trading, but he didn't give it." ”

Fang Jinshi said: "How do you know? ”

Ji Changan was reluctant to answer his question, but said, "Young Master Fang can write a letter and send it to the Yun Wangfu to ask if this is the case." ”

Of course, Fang Jinshi believed that what he said was the truth, and there was no need to write such a letter to ask, at this time, several magnificent carriages came slowly from a distance, and Ji Changan looked at the carriageway: "It should be Mr. Meng Da who has arrived." ”

The carriage stopped, Fang Jinshi approached and wanted to greet Mr. Meng Da, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a tall man jumped directly from the carriage, he looked like he was twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a full beard and sunken eyes, although he was wearing a black Han costume, he knew at a glance that he was a Hu man.

Fang Jinshi was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood that this Hu man was definitely not Cai Meng, this young Hu man got out of the carriage and looked around: "This place is very good, the scenery is pleasant." "The Chinese dialect is very good, with almost no foreign accents.

The curtain of the second carriage was lifted, and Sun De, the chief manager of the Four Seas Merchants, jumped down, and following him came a middle-aged Confucian scholar, this Confucian had deep eyes, and his movements were very slow when he got out of the carriage, and the material of his clothes was excellent, but the decoration of his clothes was very little embroidery.

Sun De got out of the carriage first, and then lowered his hand and waited for this person to get out of the carriage, with a respectful and respectful demeanor, Fang Jinshi guessed that this person must be the Meng Da Mr. Cai Meng who had heard his name for a long time but had never seen it.

Sure enough, Sun De waited for this Confucian student to stand still, and said to Fang Jinshi: "Young Master Fang, this is Mr. Mengda." ”

Fang Jinshi took a step forward and saluted this person, "I've seen Mr. Meng." ”

Cai Meng took a quick step, grabbed his shoulders and said, "They are all their own brothers, why bother with so many courtesies." ”

Fang Jinshi hurriedly said: "When I came, Brother Zhao specially confessed that I had to ask Mr. Meng Da more for advice on weekdays, but Mr. Meng Da was busy all day long for the four seas business, I have been here for many days, and I can only visit Mr. Meng Da today, and I will ask Mr. Meng Da to give advice in the future." ”

Cai Meng smiled slightly and said: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, the Four Seas Business has just started, and there are many complicated things, I have long been looking forward to helping me after Brother Fang arrives, and Brother Fang should not be lazy then." ”

Fang Jinshi saw that Cai Meng was at least not as unkind as he imagined, and he was a little relieved, Zhou Jinpeng also walked out when he heard the news, and greeted Cai Meng and said, "Mr. Meng, I can expect you." ”

Cai Menghan nodded to him with a smile, and then said to the young man Hu Dao, who was still watching the scenery and ignoring others: "Prince Rikaan, let's go in." ”

The young man Hu came over, and Cai Meng said to Fang Jinshi: "This is the little prince of Persia, Rikaan, who specially took a Han name Wang An, and is a friend in the merchant business. ”

Fang Jinshi Yili arched his hand and said, "I've seen Prince Rikaan." ”

Prince Rikaan said, "According to your words, you should call me the prince. Fang Jinshi smiled and said again: "I've seen Wang Gongzi." ”

Cai Mengdao: "Wang Gongzi has been to Huaidong for the third time, and there is still a mansion in Bianliang City, and he is very interested in our dynasty." ”

A few people walked into the courtyard while talking, Zhou Jinpeng's garden is quite big, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, in front of the pavilion in the corner of the courtyard, Shi Haozheng said loudly: "See the smile and laugh, the word card sung by the girl Baozhu is made by Xiao Ke the day before yesterday, and please advise you on the shortcomings." ”

It turned out that Baozhu had already sung a song with Sanxian in his arms, although these literati and elegant guests had no money and no power, but their social status was not low, and the head of the Goolan Academy like Baozhu was also willing to associate with such a showman, and let them fill in the lyrics to sing.

Although Huang Jinmian can play the piano, but he can't sing lyrics and card songs, Fang Jinshi couldn't help but think that Yun Nu'er is here, in terms of Yun Nu'er's singing level, this Baozhu girl is only afraid that it is really inferior to her.

As soon as Fang Jinshi entered the courtyard, Huang Jinmian walked to his side, she was bright and moving today, even the Persian prince Rikaan also looked at her twice, Fang Jinshi felt that there was light on his face, and said to Cai Meng: "This is my concubine's room, I can also play the piano, let her play a song later, how about Mr. Meng Yazheng?" ”

Cai Meng smiled slightly and said: "I heard that Brother Fang's concubine is from Xiuwang's Mansion, and she is excellent in piano art and calligraphy and painting. ”

Fang Jinshi knew that Cai Meng must have made an unannounced visit to him and knew his situation very well, so he said, "Then ask Mr. Meng to come up with a topic." ”

Cai Meng smiled: "Feel free to do so, Cai is willing to buy this calligraphy and painting for Mrs. Fang." ”

Hearing what he said, Fang Jinshi couldn't guess what he meant, he could only guess that he wanted to show favor to Fang Jinshi, and spend this hundred times to buy a painting of one of his concubines to give him face, this Mr. Meng Da acted really differently, and it was elusive.

Fang Jinshi turned back to Huang Jinmian and said, "Since Mr. Meng Da has an order, then you should make a picture seriously and ask Mr. Meng Da for advice." ”

Huang Jinmian saluted him, only obedient, she walked to the table, there was a spread of paper, she couldn't think of anything good to write for a while when she picked up the pen, when she hesitated, Cai Meng smiled and said: "If Little Madam Fang feels untitled, it is better to draw a picture, just draw something that Little Madam Fang likes." ”
