The father and son didn't know how to interface for a while, and Steward Chen seemed to feel that his words were a bit too much. Just when it was a little embarrassing, the car turned a corner onto Wagzhen Road. Steward Chen's eyes lit up and slowed down the car slightly, "Two, see the two houses on the left?" ”

Qian Dingzhang looked at it, only to see a rather large private garden, on both sides of the garden there is a three-open and two-entry house, the shape is almost the same, the first entry is the Chinese-style two-storey shikumen, the latter one is the Western-style three-storey small building. At a glance, I swept the house numbers, which were No. 212 and No. 216 Wager Road, but they shared the same gate to enter and exit, and there were two red-headed Ah San standing by the door.

"This is a big family, huh?" Qian Dingzhang exclaimed.

"Guess who's living in it?" Without waiting for Qian Dingzhang to answer, he first said the answer, "Dongtou No. 212 lives Zhang Xiaolin, No. 216 Mr. Mo Du." ”

"Oh?" Qian Dingzhang keenly noticed that he used different terms and names for the two tycoons.

"This piece of land is our old lady, and the house was also built by the old lady and given to the two of them."

"Mr. Huang, benevolence and righteousness" Qian Xunzhi praised.

"At that time, Sanxin Company really made a lot of money, relying on the old lady to go up and down in the French Concession to eat openly, saying that it is not an exaggeration to make money every day, but the old lady always has the inspector general, the official body is not good to do in person in many things, so let Mr. Du and Zhang Xiaolin rush in front. At that time, the business was booming, the old lady looked at the two of them, one lived in the Republic of China on Nanmin Guolu, and the other simply borrowed a house everywhere, so he took out the land in his hand and built a house, they moved in, and the garden and gate were deliberately designed to be shared by two families, just hoping that they would unite as one. ”

"Mr. Huang, this mind for treating friends should be thumbs up"

"It's not all, Mr. Du's old man set a sign to Fusheng, oops, now I want to call Chen Shichang Chen Old Lady, I sold wine in Nanshi because I accepted such a good apprentice as Mr. Du, and now life is better. Mr. Du bought him a house in the French Concession. The old lady also took special care of the patrol room, and took care of it every day. That's it, these two people are now getting a good start, and they are very different from the beginning, Mr. Du is okay, he often greets An, every year on the first day of the New Year, the first one runs to the Huang Mansion, and then his old man Chen Shichang's house, but it was originally called Uncle, and now it is called Brother Jin Rong。。。。。。 He shook his head

"As for Zhang Xiaolin, hum, relying on Yu Yefeng's children and daughters, he began not to take the old lady in his eyes... Oops, it's here. ”

The father and son got out of the car, and Qian Xunzhi quietly stuffed a few foreign dollars into his hand, "Delay you so much, buy a cup of tea, buy a cup of tea"

"What's so embarrassing?"

"Yes, yes, maybe I'll trouble you in the future, I'll see you again."

The other car also stopped, and Lu Drunken Immortal He Ruoxi and Zhou Yuquan got out of the car together.

After sitting down in the Zhou family's guest house, the maid brought tea, and Zhou Yuquan said, "A few, miss for a while", and went upstairs. When he walked down the stairs for a moment, he held several handfuls of shamisen in his hand.

"Little money, Mr. Tai saw you for the first time, and I didn't prepare to meet the money, these old strings were also used by me one after another, the pitch is good, but it is more or less inconsistent with my voice, so I put it at home to eat ashes. It's just right for you to come today, pick it, and you should help me clear the inventory. ”

said very politely, Qian Dingzhang knew that the storyteller's strings were to eat and live, and it was definitely not an ordinary commodity that could be included in his pocket, and he still knew the truth that a gentleman does not win people's love. Suddenly, Ai Ai was speechless.

Seeing this, Lu Zuixian stood up and said, "Senior brother is really sending you, are you embarrassed to choose, then I, who is a gentleman, will help you pick it." Then he walked over to the table and picked up a few strings and tried them one by one. Finally choose one.

Zhou Yuquan smiled when he saw it, "This master is good, as soon as he makes a move, he will check out my best one here, and this one is also what I originally wanted to give a little money." Good eye"

Lu Zui Xianjiao smiled, "This string, it doesn't work with your voice, it's just right to give a little money, by the way, I haven't seen you use it much." ”

Zhou Yuquan stretched out his hand to take the three strings, plucked his fingers on the strings a few times, and sighed softly, "This string was originally an old artist, at that time I was young and ran docks all over the place, once singing in the countryside of Shuikou, Suzhou, I heard the audience say that there is an old artist named Tang Zhengqing, his eyes are almost blind, and there is only one nephew who farms to take care of him, and his life is very bad." At that time, I was a bit famous, and I didn't have a family, so I asked them for the address and went to see the old man."

When he went, he saw that he was really pitiful, so he hired a car to take him to the town, invited him to take a bath and eat noodles, and later left some money for him. It can be regarded as fulfilling the obligations of the Taoists. Zhou Yuquan shook his head, "We are really in the middle of a bitter path."

"And then?" Lu Zuixian asked

"Shuikou is also a pretty good wharf, at that time I just figured out the tune of the week, where I sang for half a year, every day "double out of a hundred" or even "three out of a hundred", do you have money, sometimes I go to the old man to chat, invite him to eat double noodles. After talking a lot, I realized that he also sang "Jade Dragonfly", and there was a secret book. Because his nephew was a farmer, he simply gave me the notebook. I want to make him a gentleman, but he said that he didn't make his debut in Guangyu Society, and he was considered an outsider, and worshipping him would be bad for me in the future. ”

"Hey, these dead rules of Guangyu Society are really harmful" Lu Zuixian couldn't help but think of the rule that women are not allowed to go on stage, and scolded angrily.

"Yes, without Guangyu Society, our storytellers are certainly scattered, and with them, it is also troublesome. Later, I left the money I earned in Shuikou to the old man and his nephew, except for my own travel expenses, which was also considered a little bit of care. Although I don't apprentice, I said that I will handle the affairs of the old man for a hundred years. Within half a year of my departure, he went... ”

"When I rushed over, his nephew had already done the matter, saying that the old man's dying wish would not let me trouble me, and then he gave me this three strings, he was also in the limelight when he was young, this string was made for him by a rich businessman, you see."

Zhou Yuquan stroked the shaft head of the three strings, "You see, this is a whole ivory car, the body is also made of fine paulownia wood, and the moire luodian on the headpiece is also made of ivory appliqués," said and took out a small mahogany box from his side, opened it and put it on the table, "This piano is also ivory." This set is yours. ”

Qian Dingzhang listened to it and repaid, "Mr. Tai, this is a treasure and it was also passed on to you by the old-timers, don't dare to ask for it, I'll pick a few of them... ”

"Little ghost, Ah is not trusting me as a gentleman," Lu Zuixian poked his finger on the door of his head. "If you take a closer look, why do my senior brother and I have to give you this?"

"I haven't passed the door yet, why is there a moldy sissy tone," Qian Dingzhang rubbed his head and slandered. (Wu Yu is in charge of stepmother and stepfather, called mildew mother and mildew master, it is not a good word at first glance)
