Because Ye Yu's dyeing workshop business has been in full swing for most of the past half a year, he has no time to take care of the affairs of the Su family's ready-to-wear shop, so although his second shopkeeper is famous, he rarely makes cabinets in the shop.

Now that the New Year is approaching, the streets and alleys are full of festive atmosphere, regardless of the rich and poor, they have purchased New Year's goods for the Spring Festival.

During this period, Ye Yu instructed Su Tai to take out all the deposited fabrics in the dyeing workshop warehouse and give them to the poor people. Now that his abilities are limited, there is only so much he can do.

When Su Tai felt that Ye Yu's move was quite wasteful, Ye Yu waved his hand and disagreed. Now he is half a businessman, but he thinks that a businessman can be content with his profits.

I don't care about how much money is, I just have enough to spend. If you have the ability to do so, why not give it appropriately?

Snow covered the courtyard, and the sky revealed a ray of sunshine. Ye Yu sat quietly in the study, struggling to practice his words.

The reason why it is called difficult is not that his arm is injured, but that this way of writing is somewhat unique.

The brush is written horizontally and vertically on the paper, but there is a copper coin at the end of the barrel. As long as Ye Yu's writing action is slightly too large, it will cause the copper coin to fall from the tail of the pen.

In this way of writing, Ye Yu has not been interrupted for half a year.

Although Ye Yu, who fuses his memory, is not low in knowledge, it is really difficult to get into the hall of elegance with this bad hand. It's not ugly, but it's not a good word either.

Although Ye Yu's font is good in later generations, it is a hard pen after all, and now it is replaced by a brush to write, and there is no problem in writing, but if you want to write well, you still need to put more effort.

"Young master, I've been practicing for a long time, let's rest!" At this time, Qiulan lifted the cotton curtain and walked in lightly with a tea tray.

Ye Yu finished writing the last word, then put down the brush and stopped writing, shook his numb right arm, and said to himself: "It seems that Wang Xizhi's calligraphy is famous in history, not without basis!" ”

At that time, Wang Xizhi practiced calligraphy hard, and the pond of shabu became an ink pond.

Now Ye Yu is practicing calligraphy hard, so he can appreciate the boredom and perseverance.

Naturally, Qiu Lan would not know these allusions, he only knew that the young master was already very tired. first put the tea tray on the table, and then gently handed the tea cup full of tea to Ye Yu's hand.

"With Qiulan by your side, the red sleeves are fragrant, even if you are tired, it is worth ......" Ye Yu said and took the teacup, and couldn't help laughing.

Qiulan, who was beating Ye Yu's back at this time, pursed her lips and smiled sweetly when she heard these words, and then Xiao Fan punched it a little harder, but she snorted softly: "The young master will laugh ......."

Qiu Lan looked at the brush on the table, tilted her head and wondered, "Young Master, is this method really effective?" ”

"Of course it works!" Ye Yu said and put down the teacup, and said very solemnly: "Huang Tingjian during the period of the Great Song Dynasty Shenzong, he used this method for many years, and finally became a calligrapher. At first, his words were also extremely ugly! ”

"Young master, tell me, how ugly is his handwriting?" Qiulan likes to listen to Ye Yu tell allusions on weekdays, and she often keeps asking questions when she is fascinated by them, and she has to ask a reason.

Ye Yu saw that Qiu Lan's question came again, and suddenly felt a little helpless, so he shook his head and said, "How ugly are the words?" Because of this word, the examiner used words to talk about character, making him famous! The first place in the imperial examination has been postponed for three years! ”

"Oh! But that's not fair! How can the quality of the handwriting be related to the good and evil of people? ”

Qiu Lan's opinion made Ye Yu laugh, Qiu Lan didn't know why the young master was laughing, so she asked, "Young master, could it be that Qiu Lan said something wrong......

Ye Yu, whose laughter gradually stopped, then sighed slightly: "Even Qiulan can understand the truth, but those Confucians who have read poetry and books have never been able to understand!" At this point, you are much stronger than Ouyang Xiu! ”

"Ouyang Xiu? Young master, Qiulan seems to have heard this name, he ......"

"He? I am the promoter of the ancient style movement during the reign of Chaorenzong, and I am also the leader of the literary world during the reign of my Chaorenzong......" Ye Yu closed his eyes and said with a smile that seemed to have a deep meaning.

Although Ye Yu has always respected these famous people in the literary world, he only respects these people and does not worship them.

Under these radiant altars, some flaws are not to be discussed, just talking about Huang Tingjian's reputation for being Sun Shan because of his ugly font, which made Ye Yu very angry in his heart, because Ouyang Xiu was the chief examiner of that year.

However, the Northern Song Dynasty selected those who were so-called with beautiful rhetoric and handsome fonts, but they were traitors with poor character, which is the best irony.

Being praised by the young master for being more sensible than Ouyang Xiu, Qiu Lan felt happy in her heart, and then seemed to think of something, so she hurried out of the study.

This made Ye Yu, who was enjoying the beating of his back with a pink fist, suddenly feel empty. When he opened his eyes, Qiulan returned to the study with a brocade jacket in her arms.

"Na, this is something that Miss Su sent this morning!" Qiulan handed the brocade jacket in her arms to Ye Yu, and then muttered that she didn't know what to say.

Ye Yu looked at the finely cut brocade jacket in his hand, rubbed his forehead helplessly, and said in his heart that this is really difficult to eliminate the grace of beauty. Then he put the brocade jacket on his body, and the brocade jacket was not big or small.

Raising his eyes and seeing that Qiulan was silent on the side, and there was a brocade jacket in his hand, Ye Yu raised his eyebrows and quipped: "What, are you jealous?" Then I'll take it off and put on the padded jacket you made, so it's okay! ”

"Young master, am I too stingy?" Qiulan lowered her head and asked in a voice like a mosquito.

Ye Yu nodded matterfully and said, "Well, it's a little!" ”

"Ah......" Qiu Lan glanced at Ye Yu with a shocked face, and then quickly lowered her head, and said with some trepidation: "Young master, don't worry, Qiu Lan will change in the future......"

Ye Yu didn't hurry to speak, but took off the brocade jacket he was already wearing, and as soon as he reached out and took the brocade jacket from Qiulan's arms, looking at the rough workmanship, Ye Yu teased kindly: "As soon as I look at this workmanship, I will know that it comes from you!" ”

As he spoke, he put the jacket on his body, Ye Yu moved his shoulders, and then said solemnly: "No matter what kind of clothes I wear, this little padded jacket will always be the most intimate, even if this padded jacket is rough and does not fit." But you little woman's mind will not be in the future! ”

"Hmm!"

Qiulan hummed softly, then picked up the brocade jacket that Ye Yu had taken off, and put it on for Ye Yu herself. For Qiu Lan's relieved move, Ye Yu nodded with satisfaction.

Just as the two were chatting, Guo Xiaotian came in to report that it was the scholar of Pan's place waiting outside the door. When the scholar entered the study, because of talking to Ye Yu, Ye Yu suddenly frowned slightly and hesitated.

"Ye Gongzi, my young master and Lu Gongzi are already waiting in the Zuichun Building, please take a step!"

What kind of place is Zuichun Building, Ye Yu naturally knows, this is the first gold cave in Qingliu County, which is the so-called Qinglou.

Although Ye Yu knew that today's Qinglou was not the kind of brothel of the leather and meat business in later generations, for some reason, he always had a natural rejection.

"Your young master is really good at picking places!" Ye Yu said a sentence that was neither salty nor light.

The scholar has followed Pan Zhisuo for many years, and naturally knows how to observe words and feelings, so he explained neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Ye Gongzi doesn't know, my young master was also forcibly dragged by Lu Gongzi to test poetry in Zuichun Building!" My young master was afraid that he would not be able to do so, so he came to find Ye Gongzi to help......"

Burst! Visiting the Qinglou is to visit the Qinglou, and what kind of poetry do you try, besides, with your knowledge of Pan Dacai, do you still need the help of others?

However, Ye Yu didn't want to break it, besides, he originally had the intention of inviting Pan, and now that the other party invited him in advance, he couldn't refute the other party's face.

After all, it was Pan Zhi's secret tip-off that made him change his plan to sell the cloth in time. Thinking of this, Ye Yu did not refuse, but asked the scholar to report first, and he arrived later.

……

Zuichun Building is located in the most prosperous area of Yong'an Street in the county, the building is a small building with a three-story structure, there are living rooms on the first and second floors, and only the third floor has changed the previous messy and bustling since the Oiran Liu Qianyu moved in, and the plaque was named Qianyu Pavilion.

The decoration in the middle pavilion of Qianyu Pavilion is elegant and no different from the boudoir, there are a few scriptures on the bookshelf against the wall in the room, the guzheng is placed on the bookcase of pear blossom wood, and the green smoke of the incense burner is smeared with a faint fragrance.

The front wall is hung with the word 'out of weight', and the furnishings in the room are elegant and concise, spotless, revealing a bit of book elegance.

The personal maid stood aside, carefully serving the new hostess. Not long ago, a businessman with a northern accent visited the old bustard in Zuichun Lou and sold a fifteen-year-old girl to the old bustard.

The old bustard saw that the girl named Liu Qianyu was born with a beautiful appearance, so after bargaining, he paid a bride price of 100 yuan to buy Liu Qianyu.

After the old bustard bought the willow feather, he carefully designed and dressed it up. After this dress, the old bustard was happy, because the living in front of her was a beautiful woman.

So the bustard moved to think carefully, the so-called strange goods can be sold at a price. The old bustard, who is well versed in the way of management, raised her in a quiet place on the third floor, and sent her own personal maid Huan'er, who served her carefully with delicious food and drink, just like her own daughter.

Soon, the old bustard saw that Liu Qianyu was not only literate and hyphenated, but also proficient in music, calligraphy and painting, and was also proficient in music and dance. This surprise made the old bustard overjoyed, and he soon came up with the nickname "Red Pink Oiran".

As soon as the news spread, in just three days, some dignitaries and nobles heard the news and took silver to see the beauty of the beauty.

After a period of recuperation and conditioning, the willow feather in front of you is gone, and it is unforgettable! It was a beautiful face, without a single bit of fat powder.

There was a hint of melancholy in the slightly closed eyes, clear as an autumn lake but as hazy, with a grudge and a little melancholy, Chu Chu was touching and made people feel pity.

Lazy to draw moth eyebrows, late to make up and groom, at this time Liu Qianyu opened lightly with a bit of lazy red lips: "Huan'er, how many guests are here?" ”

Xiaohuan carefully combed Liu Qianyu's hair, and replied seriously: "There are a lot of people, most of them are swingers. However, the young man Lu who smashed the jade unicorn for you invited Pan Gongzi, the first genius in the county, to come today! ”
