Chapter 15: See the Old Man
The Yafeng Mansion was made more lively by the dancing of the English women, and another wave of people came in at the gate, most of them merchants. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Shen An looks at the dances of these English women from an artistic point of view, on the whole, it is still good, the style is different from that of Jiang Chao, and it seems that the pursuit of art by Westerners is still a bit alternative.
"Zhongping—" A slightly familiar voice from memory interrupted him, and he turned his head to look at it with some confusion.
"Zhongping, you're here too."
The one who came over was a young man who was about twenty-five or sixteen, very familiar, but Shen An couldn't remember it for a while.
"Zhongping? What's going on? I'm Nakahara, so I won't remember me. Shen Zhongyuan looked puzzled.
Ah, it's him. Shen An finally remembered that Shen Zhongyuan, the Shen family's most favored person in their generation.
The ancestor of the Shen family, that is, Shen Dingyong's grandfather, started a pastry business from scratch in his early years, and after so many generations of hard work, he has the scale of the Shen family today. Until Shen Dingyong's generation, the Shen family can be said to be in full swing, the land south of the Yangtze River, the Shen family is quite famous, and many people know it in the capital in the north.
Shen Dingyong had four sons, the eldest son was born to his wife, namely Shen Zhongyuan. The other two sons were born to concubines, one named Shen Zhongqing and the other named Shen Zhongwen. The last one is Shen An.
Among the sons, Shen Zhongyuan is the eldest son, and he has a talent for business, which is the most popular with Shen Dingyong. Shen Zhongqing is average, although he is also a concubine, he still has some status in the Shen family, but as for Shen Zhongwen, he is a nerd.
"Ah, it's Zhongyuan-" Shen An in his memory called Shen Zhongyuan by his name, and Xu felt that the relationship between the two was average, so he didn't call him very cordial.
"Hehe, Zhong Ping also came to this Gentile party, I remember before, you didn't look like such a person." Shen Zhongyuan smiled.
The lack of memory made Shen An not much familiar with Shen Zhongyuan, of course, after all, it was still from the Shen family, although the Shen family didn't seem to treat him very well, and even the silver taels every month had been canceled, but one yard was one yard, Shen An still replied with a smile: "Oh, before, Xu Zhongyuan didn't know me before, I'm the kind of person who likes to be lively, this Gentile party is naturally coming."
Shen Zhongyuan smiled slightly, put down the topic, and said, "Zhongping, you have changed a lot, I heard that you opened a restaurant?"
Shen Zhongyuan was surprised by Shen An's changes, not only was Shen An able to shine at Meng Qingran's poetry meeting, but he even made a restaurant almost out of thin air, you must know that Shen An's silver taels were all provided by the Shen family, how much money Shen An had, did he not know.
"Well, thanks to the owner of the restaurant who is willing to borrow for a while."
Shen Zhongyuan was still puzzled, even if people were willing to borrow it, you would be able to drive it with just a little silver tael in your hand. Shen An was indeed a little famous at that time, if the same thing was put on him Shen Zhongyuan, although he was sure that he could do business, but the success rate was less than half, let alone Shen An.
"Then I want to congratulate Zhong Ping, I must go to Zhong Ping's broken cake to sit down when I have time, hehe." Although I have doubts in my heart, I should not ask too many questions at this time.
"Welcome at any time, but Nakahara, why are you here now?"
"Oh, I just went out to do some business, and I'm a little late."
The two of them talked without a match, and their tones were flat, not like two people who had known each other for a long time.
Jiang Yingjie finally recovered from the silence, walked over and continued to chat with Shen An, of course, the content was the song and dance of this foreigner.
Shen Zhongyuan moved away slightly, and Jiang Yingjie didn't even look at him when he walked over.
Singing and dancing in the flat room, the fire outside the Yafeng Building swayed, and the noisy sound came.
"It smells of blood." After Yang Hu whispered, he immediately followed Jiang Yingjie closely, looking wary.
In the distance, Jun Songyi and others walked over.
"Brother Du, what's going on outside?" Shen An asked.
"I don't know, it's full of officials outside, it seems that they want to arrest a prisoner named Zhu Yeqing." Jun Songyi frowned and said.
"Bamboo leaf green?" Shen An was a little excited.
An argument broke out at the gate.
"Hmph, you officials won't pick a place to arrest people, do you look at this place like a place where prisoners are hidden?" A talented man shouted and pointed fingers, it seemed that those brocade guards wanted to enter the Yafeng Building to search, but they were blocked by this genius. After that genius stood up and spoke, many other geniuses also condemned Jinyiwei.
"Are you arrogant and unreasonable, and you will take my Lin'an scholar in your eyes?" The words were sonorous and powerful, and the indignation of the reader was full.
"That's it, officials can't be so unreasonable." A few talented people spoke, and those rich people also spoke in style.
"The prisoner may be hiding in this building, Jinyi guards enforce the law, whoever dares to stop it will be put in prison!" The brocade clothes were more horizontal, and they pulled out the embroidered spring knives one by one, and the cold light was shining.
Many people were stunned and speechless. Someone whispered a few words in the ear of the brocade guard, and the brocade guard looked up at Michael and the others in the crowd, and frowned.
"Brothers, search quickly!" What about the Gentiles, who are still afraid of you?
The man's voice fell, and more than a dozen brocade guards poured in outside the gate and began to enter the building to search.
No one noticed that Shen An quietly left the crowd.
Walking briskly all the way, Shen An probed the hidden places in the building that could hide.
Here, no!
There, too!
Jin Yiwei has already begun to search step by step, and the speed is very fast!
Where? Shen An quickly looked at the layout of Yafeng Building, and kept speculating in his heart, if it was him, where would he hide?
Suddenly, something strange made Shen An stop, Shen An leaned over to check, it was a drop of blood, and Shen An wiped it off.
Zhu Yeqing is nearby, but where is it?
Shen An was not on guard, he knew that no matter how vigilant he was, he couldn't prevent Zhu Yeqing. Relax a little, and the other party will not harm him.
Suddenly, a touch of coldness was attached to his neck, and a chill hit him as if he was locked behind him.
It's bamboo leaf green!
"Woman, woman, there is no malice below, don't shake the woman's hands."
After saying that, he felt his neck getting colder and colder.
"Who are you and why are you looking for me? Can't say a suitable reason why you're going to die. Lin Haitang's voice was cold, but if you listen closely, you will find that it is actually very weak.
"This woman, in the next to the woman's name is like thunder, admiration for a long time, knowing that the woman often robs the rich to help the poor, kills corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and the admiration for the woman is like a surging river......"
The chilling sensation on the neck is becoming more and more obvious.
"Woman, look, there are all officials below, and they came down to help the heroine get out of trouble."
"Why?"
"It's not a secret, I also hate those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, saving women is from the heart, if there is a little lie, the sky will thunder."
Shen An said these words with extreme sincerity, Lin Haitang is helpless at the moment, he may not believe in Shen An so much, but there is nothing he can do at the moment.
"If you say half a lie, I'll make your head fall to the ground in an instant!"
