The midsummer sky is clean and refreshing, but the hot air makes people feel a little fly in the ointment. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The stone city in the border area is not walked by pedestrians in the summer.

After experiencing the heat wave brought by the hot wind, the few people who are now the only few people who rely on selling small goods on weekdays are also constantly wiping the sweat on their foreheads with their sleeves.

Looking at the street market, which was cleaner than their own pockets, they also showed a little helpless smile, looking up at the sun moving their bodies from time to time, and they kept moving the stalls according to the position of the shadows

From time to time, he swung his wares again, and the bored vendor was praying for the night to come sooner.

Zhang's Mansion, Annex

Because the weather is too hot, Zhang Hua has been hiding in his room to escape the heat.

The two windows were wide open, and the hot air that occasionally blew in made Zhang Hua, who had just calmed down, suddenly irritable again

"Squeak"

The sound of the door opening is a bit abrupt and harsh in the summer, when only cicadas chirp.

Zhang Hua, who was lying on the bed, took away the face towel on his face, and he also sat up and looked in the direction of the door.

"Young master, the weather is hot, the old man instructed the green willow to send you some ice cubes to escape the heat."

After Green Willow put the wooden bucket with ice cubes on the table, she also wiped her forehead with her sleeve and said to Green Willow with a flushed face

"Ice? Where did the green willow ice come from? ”

After seeing the white ice cubes in the wooden barrel from afar, Zhang Hua seemed to be looking at Mei to quench his thirst, and suddenly came to his senses.

"This was sent by Luo Fu to the master."

"Luofu? But Luo Yu ......"

"That's right, it's Miss Luo Yu's house."

Green Willow said, and then watched Zhang Hua pick out a small piece of ice from the barrel and put it in his mouth to bite the rattle, Green Willow also came to his side and continued softly

"Young master, the master asked the green willow to tell you, for tonight's banquet, the master said to let the young master go instead of him"

"Banquet? What a banquet."

Eating ice cubes in his mouth, Zhang Hua asked Lu Liu vaguely

"The birthday of the head of the Luo Mansion family should have been held a long time ago, but because of the kidnapping of the young master and Miss Luo, the matter has been postponed to the present."

"Just now, while the people of Luofu were sending ice cubes, they also sent the invitation together, and the master didn't say anything after reading the invitation, he just told the green willow to tell the young master to let the young master go to this banquet."

"Grandpa isn't going? Why not? ”

As for the reason why Zhang Tianhao suddenly did not participate, Zhang Hua was a little curious at this time.

No matter what the family relationship in the city is, the face and surface work that should be given will also be done very well.

What's more, according to what he has seen and heard, the relationship between his grandfather and Luo Dong, the head of the Luo family, is also very good.

is like a birthday banquet invitation, and his grandfather has no reason to refuse, and there is no reason to replace it, which makes Zhang Hua scratch his head.

"I don't know, the master just asked the green willow to tell the young master, as for the specific reason, the master didn't say." Midoriyanagi said frankly.

After being silent for a while, thinking about the past in his mind, Zhang Hua guessed and asked Green Willow at this time

"Is it because there is a problem in the business, so grandpa has no time to go separately?

Wrong... Even if there is a problem with the family business, it doesn't affect the banquet in the evening. ”

"Could it be because of physical reasons? It's not right, grandpa's snoring sound, I can faintly hear it here, how can there be something wrong with his body? ”

Zhang Hua just had a guess, and the next second he was immediately refuted by himself, and after watching his young master do this, Lu Liu also looked at him directly

In her eyes, Zhang Hua has turned into a summer cicada on the willow tree outside the courtyard, tirelessly, and has been constantly venting her indifference to summer

……

In another courtyard in the mansion, Zhang Tianhao and Lao Ling, the housekeeper in the mansion, are also like Zhang Hua, and they also eat ice cubes to dissolve the heat in their bodies.

Lao Ling, although he is the housekeeper in the mansion and a servant with a high status, no one will think that he is really a servant

Zhang Tianhao's familiarity and cordiality in his attitude towards Lao Ling on weekdays is definitely not the posture that a pair of masters and servants should have, on the contrary, if you really observe carefully, you will find that these two seem to be a pair of friends who have known each other for many years.

A very strange pair of master and servant, but because Lao Ling treats people very well on weekdays, Zhang Tianhao treats him like this, and the other subordinates also feel that they deserve it, and there is nothing strange about it.

But if someone is now around the two of them, and after hearing what they say, I'm afraid no one will not doubt the true relationship between the two and their identity

"It's been almost twenty years, when you took the young master to escape the fire, the young master was still in infancy, and now in the blink of an eye, he has actually become a young man

And we have lost our original appearance, and we have become the pot-bellied poop we have now, and the years are really not around."

Lao Ling took a bite of the ice cube and said to Zhang Tianhao as if he remembered something

"Twenty years, just in the blink of an eye, tsk"

Not as sentimental as Lao Ling, Zhang Tianhao just said briefly

"By the way, did you listen to what I told you last time?"

After sighing slightly for a while, Lao Ling also changed his face and said to Zhang Tianhao

After Zhang Tianhao heard this, his expression was also stunned, but then he immediately returned to his original appearance

"You mean that the Northern Jin Dynasty sent someone to make peace, right? Nanqing is so big, if they want to find us, it will not be easy, don't take it to heart, let them go."

"That's true, but this matter has something else in mind."

After Lao Ling heard this and nodded, he was also a little closer to Zhang Tianhao, and spoke a little hurriedly

"What's the matter?"

"When are you going to tell the young master about what happened twenty years ago, or rather, what are you going to take the young master back?"

"Go back? Where to go? ”

Zhang Tianhao glanced at Lao Ling in surprise at this time, and after Lao Ling heard Zhang Tianhao's question, he immediately opened his mouth and laughed a few times.

But then, after seeing that Zhang Tianhao's expression was casual, but it didn't look like a joke, Lao Ling immediately put away his smiling face and looked at him as if he had met a great enemy

"You don't really plan to take the young master back, do you?"

Lao Ling asked solemnly, but Zhang Tianhao was silent about this.

"At the beginning, we had no choice but to let the young master disappear in their eyes completely, so we fled to Nanqing

To be honest, in the past 20 years in Nanqing, it is indeed very good and comfortable, no one is chasing and killing, there is no need to be afraid, and this kind of life also makes me addicted to it for a while

But

Don't forget, we are not the people of Nanqing, and the young master is not from Nanqing! ”

Lao Ling stood up a little excited at this time, but Zhang Tianhao on the side was still the same as just now, and he was silent without any answer
