The matter has already spread outside, but the person concerned, Li Qian, is hiding at home, and he lives like a yellow flower girl without leaving the door all day long.

There are quite a few literati who have come to visit in the past few days, but in the same year of his township examination, he is basically not in Hangzhou, because even those who fail in the examination can also apply for tribute to be admitted to the national prison, and in the future, they will be selected through recommendation or examination. However, in the same year of the college examination, there were more in my hometown.

At the beginning, Li Qian responded politely and politely, but later there were more and more people who came to the door, and he felt a little annoyed, so he made excuses and pushed them all.

As the second son of the Li family, Li Qian's status in the family is not lower than that of his brother, and he lives alone in a three-entry compound.

In fact, his courtyard and the Li family's old mansion are counted separately, just because they are next to each other, a moon arch is opened in the backyard to communicate with each other, which is equivalent to a separate courtyard of the Li family. Not only him, but his brother Li Xiao was also treated the same, and he had his own mansion placed next to the Li family's main house.

This kind of situation is very common in large families, the population of the Li family is still small, and there are not many people in the two generations combined, but there are more servants. In the case of a prosperous family, a small house is indeed not spacious enough, and many other courtyards will naturally be built next to each other, which is not too much of an exceedance.

In the early morning, in the courtyard where the fog had not cleared, Li Qian was busy fiddling with his flowers and plants. In fact, it was just to pass the time, and in the past, when he was away, there would be a special maid to take care of him.

Although he was determined to be a leisurely small landlord, Li Qian couldn't think of what he should do for a while. He really didn't want to be a gentleman, what kind of activities like cockfighting and dog walking, he just thought it was fun, and he was reluctant to go out when he was really at home.

In his previous life, he had a rich nightlife, but in his heart, he felt that those things were very boring, nothing more than clubbing and drinking, and from time to time he came to a "419", and the high-end gameplay of the rich was too expensive, and a small department manager couldn't afford to play.

However, compared to the life in the Ming Dynasty now, Li Qian felt that he was in the blessing and did not know the blessing before, how could there be so many entertainment activities in ancient times?

Things like cockfighting and walking dogs are inevitably too boring------

In the past few days, Li Qian instructed his subordinates to get some vegetable seeds and came back, wanting to try to experience the rural life in person, just like the farmhouse he had experienced in his previous life. This kind of thing is not too difficult in the first place, and it is not difficult to learn some experience from the croppers, plus some insights from his previous life, and it is not difficult to look decent.

In one corner of the inner courtyard there is a small pond with a flourishing begonia tree on the side. The begonia tree is about a foot high, nearly a foot higher than the courtyard wall of the Li family, the bright red of the tree is soaked in the crystal morning dew, and a few small magpies stay on the branches at the top of the tree, chirping non-stop.

Li Qian held the celadon flowers produced in Jingdezhen in his hand, occasionally looked up at the tree, and said in his heart that the statement of the magpie annunciation was pure nonsense, and he had a magpie annunciation every day, but he didn't see where the joy came from, but he almost let people withdraw from the marriage------

A round of rising sun in the sky shone on the red carp in the pond, and the pond was filled with a dazzling golden light.

The red carp in the pond has a small mouth, is spitting bubbles on the water surface, the pool surface has fallen a piece of bright red begonia flowers and leaves, and occasionally a few petals above will happen to fall on the head of the red carp, frightened it immediately turned around and fled into the water, and after a while, it went back and forth------ the crystal clear lake water, when looking at the lake from a distance, it is like a bright mirror, and the reflection of the beautiful scenery in the small courtyard in the south of the Yangtze River can be clearly seen.

"Young Master, Young Master------"

In terms of the degree of chirping, a few little magpies are far worse than Zipei. Li Qian raised his head and smiled gently at her, then frowned slightly.

"Someone came to the door early in the morning? Didn't I say it, but found a reason to refuse. ”

"No, young master, that person ------" Zi Pei's little hand stroked his little chest, and he gasped for two breaths before continuing: "That person was the one we saw on the boat that day." ”

"Oh? That swaggering boy? Seeing her nodding, Li Qian continued to ask: "Why is he here, to discuss my knowledge, or to ask for poetry and songs?" ”

"That's what he said------"

"What do you do? It's back. Li Qian said, turned around and continued to play with the flowers and plants behind him, not taking this matter to heart at all.

"But the young master ------"

Zipei was halfway through his words, but he stopped talking, and his little mouth was pouted high.

Li Qian waited for a long time but didn't see anything next, turned his head and saw her look angry and aggrieved, he couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Young master, that person is so shameless, he ------ him------ hey, he's bullying others!"

Li Qian raised his eyebrows and asked directly, "Did he do anything to you?" ”

The little girl nodded, then shook her head again, and said, "No, he wanted to do something to me, but I avoided him, didn't you hurry up and tell the young master you?" ”

Li Qian was suddenly very unhappy in his heart, such a cardamom age girl, what kind of bullshit boy can do it?

"Go, let people take the vicious dogs of the house, and let them out to bite him."

“------”

Zipei's eyes widened, and her small mouth opened into an "O" shape, her face full of disbelief.

"Young master, do you really want ------ let dogs bite people?"

"Don't tell me you don't want to."

"Willing is willing, it's just ------" Zipei tilted his little head, thinking about the consequences of doing so, and hesitated: "Is this really good?" ”

"Haven't you heard of closing the door and letting the dogs go, let's change it, it's called opening the door------"

"Nonsense!"

There was a cold shout from behind him, and Li Jinglun suddenly appeared in the small courtyard, bluffing and said: "That's the son of Zhao Yuanwai's family, how can you, as a scholar, be so rude?" Why don't you hurry up and get out of here to entertain guests! ”

“------”

Li Qian felt quite helpless, how could he coincidentally let this old man bump into him, and also gave people to the hall house. It's not good to disobey my father's will at the moment, so I can only obediently walk in the direction of the main hall.

When literati meet, they naturally have to be polite before turning to the topic.

Li Qian was not familiar with the other party, and after two sentences of the scene with a smile, he asked impatiently: "Zhao Gongzi came over today, what is the matter?" ”

Regardless of his attitude towards himself, Zhao Peng replied with a polite smile: "Don't hide it from Li Gongzi, coming over today is actually a reluctant request------

"Since it's a reluctant invitation, Zhao Gongzi doesn't have to say more, I'm very busy."

“------”

Zhao Peng was a little stunned, this guy doesn't play cards according to the routine, how can anyone answer like this?

"Ha------ Li Gongzi is really good at laughing, so I'll say it bluntly------"

Zhao Pengqiang hid his embarrassment, and hurriedly explained his intention to him: "I'm not afraid of Brother Li's jokes when I say it, when I was on the boat that day, I became interested in the pair of maids next to you, I don't know if I can give it to you?" ”

Li Qian pursed his lips, this person is really thick-skinned, he knows that he is reluctantly invited, and he dares to open this mouth to himself, am I very familiar with you?

But this bastard really wants to be beautiful, and he really thinks that he is a scholar nowadays, and he likes to give away maidservants just like those scumbags?

Others think it's elegance, that's their business, and Li Qian doesn't dare to agree with it. What's more, how old is Zijin Zipei now, can this give birth to obscenity?

A bunch of dog-like stuff!

Seeing that he is not too old at this age, his face is also very immature, a little ghost who has not grown all his hair, his heart is so dirty, looking at this dress is also a scholar, there is no doubt that he is also a scholar, and maybe there is fame in his body------ alas, he is a well-dressed beast!

In this world, the world is really declining, and people's hearts are not ancient!

Zhao Peng saw that his face was not good, but he didn't express his meaning clearly, and hurriedly added: "Brother Li, don't worry, the price is up to you, and this is what our Zhao family lacks the most!" ”

In his opinion, even if the twin maids are cute and cute, they can be bought for money.

I didn't know the details of Li Qian before, he was reluctant to even give this money, and said that Lin Beiji came to the door to withdraw his relatives. Later, I found out that this Li Qian was not an easy character to deal with, so he also gave up that mind and played with the means on the surface.

Frankly speaking, the Li family is stronger than the Zhao family in terms of heritage, but in terms of financial resources and power, it is far inferior to the Zhao family. Therefore, Zhao Peng felt that Li Qian would not offend himself for the sake of a pair of little maids.

Li Qian put his right hand on his cheek, as if he was thoughtful, Zhao Peng was even more proud when he saw this, and then added: "If Li Gongzi is willing to cut love, I can also give you three more delicate and lovely maidservants, who are guaranteed to be more beautiful than your two maids!" ”

This is the truth, with the Zhao family's family background, it is indeed not difficult to collect a few pretty girls, Zhao Peng has played with more than a dozen of them at home, and the appearance is not bad, it is not that there are no maids than Li Qian, but they are not as fresh as the two sisters.

As for whether it's a virgin, it's just fun, and it's not to be married to be a wife, few men will care about this. In his opinion, the pair of maids must have been harmed by Li Qian a long time ago, so he didn't think it was a problem.

As Zhao Peng expected, he saw Li Qian looking at him with burning eyes.

"Is what Zhao Gongzi said true?"

"It's true." Zhao Peng laughed sheepishly.

"Well, since Zhao Gongzi is so bold, then I'm not welcome, I don't dare to open my mouth if there are more, so I will ask for 100,000 yuan!"
