"In the end, it's a little cramped here, Brother Liu and his sister-in-law will be here for a few days. I've asked someone to find the house, in fact, it's already been rented, but something happened over there suddenly, and I delayed moving out, and I guess there will be news in the next few days. It's good to pick up the luggage or something, and I'll have to move it in a few days anyway. ”

Chu Feng led Liu Zhengqing and his wife Zhou around the courtyard, and after visiting Mr. Wenduan and Mr. Cheng Yuan one by one, he took the two to the room where he originally lived.

"Is this where you originally lived? What are you going to do if we move in? Liu Zhengqing was covered in dust, but the whole person seemed to be in good spirits, with the joy of seeing his old friends on his face.

"I'll go to the academy to stay for a few days, it's all a small matter, Brother Liu doesn't have to worry." Chu Feng said with a smile.

"Chu Langjun, it's really thanks to you." Zhou stepped forward and bowed, and said with emotion, "The husband and the slave family are not familiar with each other in the city of Tokyo, if there is no Chu Langjun to help manage these things, I am afraid that after a long time, I will not be able to figure out the way." ”

"What did my sister-in-law say," Chu Feng bowed slightly and returned the salute and said with a smile, "Brother Yiming's friendship with me is there, and of course I, as a brother, must do my best." What's more, if it weren't for Brother Yiming, I might still be just a little acquaintance in the calligraphy and painting industry, how could there be a good thing to enter the painting academy now. ”

"It's gold that always shines, and your painting skills are there, even without my help, your reputation will eventually rise, and it's just a matter of being earlier and later. Ha ha! You are now a court painter, tsk, take advantage of you for my brother, at the beginning, I thought that if I became an official in the future, I would have to pull you. It's good now. I, Liu Zhengqing, am just a white body, and you guys are already real people with official titles. Ha! Lord Chu, please bear with me in the future! Liu Zhengqing laughed and teased, and did not forget to bow to Chu Feng in a decent manner.

Chu Feng hurriedly turned sideways and shook his head with a smile: "Isn't this nonsense!" I'm a serious adult, but I'm just eating and waiting to die in the art academy. Brother Yiming is on the right path. In the future, if you can benefit the people, where can I compare? Heh, besides, I'm just in the academy now, and it's not certain whether I can stay in the academy for a long time in the future. ”

"Oh? How do you say that? Liu Zhengqing was slightly stunned.

What happened in the painting exam, Chu Feng once told Liu Zhengqing in a letter, but it was not much, and it was not detailed enough.

Chu Feng told the matter slowly at this time, and Liu Zhengqing and his wife couldn't help but be shocked when they heard it. Zhou couldn't help but say: "How can this Tokyo City be said to be at the feet of the Son of Heaven, how could such a thing happen?" Murder in the street? It's appalling! ”

Liu Zhengqing frowned and said: "No, the murder on the street or the sword in front of you, such as the painting exam, is the real sensational!" Who is the other party, and why can even the guards on duty in the imperial examination be able to command? Open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to defend, Chu Lang, you must be cautious. ”

Chu Feng responded with a smile, and probably talked about He Junhao's identity and background. After listening to this, Liu Zhengqing probably understood the truth.

"Then this He Junhao. How's it going? Are you being held in a prison? Or has it already been canonical? Zhou asked busily.

Chu Feng smiled lightly and shook his head: "Disappeared from the prison, along with his father Jingshi Garrison He Ji, as well as some of his subordinates. ”

Seeing that Liu Zhengqing and the others were shocked and speechless for a while, Chu Feng smiled and continued: "It's not a big deal, just like what my sister-in-law just said." After all, this is the city of Tokyo, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, a place of majesty, and such a thing as a murder on the street will not be encountered once in decades. Then He Junhao is afraid that he would have run into the barren mountains and mountains a long time ago. Where would you dare to show your face in this city again? Hehe, even if it really showed up...... Hey! I recently visited a master and learned some kung fu. Although it's still shallow to learn now, it should still be possible to fight alone for self-defense or something. ”

Liu Zhengqing frowned, nodded at this time, and said: "Although it is inevitable that dancing with knives and guns is a little vulgar, but Brother Chu, you should learn a little bit of self-protection now, and it is also a matter of ......"

He glanced at Chu Feng a few more times and reproached: "Why are you hiding it and not telling me about such a big thing?" Do we brothers have anything to hide from each other? ”

The reason why Chu Feng didn't mention this matter in his letterhead was, of course, many reasons. First, Liu Zhengqing was preparing for the exam, and if he knew these miscellaneous trivial matters, he would inevitably be upset, and there would be no benefit. Second, it is also because Liu Zhengqing is thousands of miles away, even if he knows, he is just worried, he can't help much, and he will worry others, which is not the result that Chu Feng wants.

In fact, Liu Zhengqing can also figure out this truth, but the world only knows it now, and he, a person who thinks he wants to be a big brother, can't help but be a little panicked, and he raised his hand and hammered Chu Feng on the shoulder lightly, and blamed a few words before he gave up.

Chu Feng smiled and apologized a few words. Xiao Ting walked in at this time, looked around the room, and smiled Shi Li: "This is Brother Yiming, right?" I have admired the name for a long time, I have admired the name for a long time, Chu Feng, this kid often talks about Brother Yiming, but now he looks really handsome, dignified, and not like an ordinary person. I heard that I will participate in the spring festival next year, and I am so young. Tsk, it's the envy of those of us! Yes! This is my sister-in-law, right...... Ay! Look at my confusion, in Xia Xiao Ting, there are ten thousand words, and the two of you call my name is. I grew up in Bianliang City, Tokyo, and if you have any work to do in the future, you can just come to me. Ha ha! Brother Chu, how are these two packing up? I have already set up a table to catch the wind in the drunken fairy building in the West Market, when is it convenient to eat something, although it is simpler, but it can be regarded as catching the wind and washing the dust. ”

"This brother is so polite. Brother Chu always mentioned Brother Xiao in his letters, saying that he was not familiar with life in the city of Tokyo, and if it weren't for Brother Xiao's help to manage many things, I am afraid that many things would not be clear now. Liu Zhengqing smiled and said, "Chu Feng is like a brother to me, he can be so taken care of by Brother Xiao, I, Liu Zhengqing, thank you here in advance!" ”

After saying that, Liu Zhengqing slammed Xiao Ting to the ground.

Xiao Ting hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it. smiled and teased: "What's the matter, isn't it possible that all of you people from Hangzhou City are so polite?" I haven't done anything good that touches the world, how can I thank me one by two over and over again, haha, is it possible that I did something to save people's lives without knowing it? ”

When Liu Zhengqing heard this, he knew that the young man in front of him was also a cheerful and free person. So he laughed and said, "Okay! In this way, I don't talk too much about my mother-in-law, if there is anything that can help in the future, Brother Xiao will open his mouth casually. Although I, Liu Zhengqing, have no ability, I can still do some trivial things. No matter how bad it is, I'm a tall man, and I have the strength to do it! ”

Xiao Ting responded with a smile, and couldn't help but look at Liu Zhengqing with a good look, and praised: "I'm a shallow person. I have never been to the land of Jiangnan, and I thought that it was a beautiful place of 'Jiangnan can pick lotus, lotus leaves and Tiantian', my daughter is made of water, and the men are as gentle and thin as Chu Feng, I never thought that there would be a man like Brother Liu. ”

"Brother Xiao, is this ridiculing me? I'm standing here, at least behind my back, isn't it? Chu Feng shrugged his shoulders with a smile and said casually. Speaking of which, I'm also a pure northerner. It is not clear whether his parents had any southern ancestry before, but he lived in the Northland when he was a child. The reason why he was so thin before probably has nothing to do with being hungry and full. ”

Liu Zhengqing rarely heard Chu Feng mention the past, and at this time he couldn't help asking: "When Brother Chu was young, what kind of disaster did the family suffer, and the destitute became like that. ”

Chu Feng shook his head and smiled: "When I was a child, I didn't suffer a disaster. It's just that I'm really obsessed with ink and blue, and my family doesn't care much about me, so I often forget to eat in a daze. ”

Xiao Ting nodded, and couldn't help but guess in his heart: Chu Feng's vision and skills are excellent, and he can see it. This kind of foundation is definitely not something that can be cultivated in just two or three years. He once asked about Chu Feng's old affairs, about his various encounters in the calligraphy and painting industry, Xiao Ting calculated that the whole process was only one year at most. If you simply started to learn painting and study at that time, it would be absolutely impossible to reach Chu Feng's current level.

Chu Feng's skills must have been absorbed and learned little by little since he was a child. Moreover, not only his painting skills, but also his background in poetry, these talented points of light flashed from time to time, which made Xiao Ting think that he guessed the possibility of Chu Feng's identity.

Probably a side branch of the northern clan, living in a big family of Shili heirlooms, probably because of his humble status, he is not very popular. Or, more extremely, the illegitimate child of a large family, it is possible. The family members are unable to admit their identity, and it is possible that they have really suffered...... Of course, this is just speculation. Moreover, for Xiao Ting, the hero doesn't ask where he comes from, no matter what Chu Feng's background is, he is Chu Feng after all, his talent is there, and his temperament is there, which is enough.

"If Langjun continues to talk like this, I'm afraid it won't be long before Chu Langjun will become thin and weak from Chu Langjun's side."

Zhou took a pot of hot tea from outside, Xiao Liuzi followed behind and held a few tea cups and two small oil paper bags, and entered the door, a pair of eyes couldn't help but look at Liu Zhengqing and Xiao Ting's faces curiously.

Zhou put the tea on the table, filled the cups one by one, and said with a smile: "Anyway, eat some refreshments first." Xiao Langjun, you must try it, this is something specially brought from Hangzhou City, and the dim sum of Hung Jin Ji is also a must in Hangzhou City...... Husband, look who this one is! ”

After that, Zhou turned around and pointed at Xiao Liuzi.

Xiao Liuzi put everything on the table, opened the oiled paper bags one by one, put them in place, and then retreated to the corner, seemed to be a little embarrassed to laugh and scratch his head.

Liu Zhengqing had naturally seen Xiao Liuzi in Hangzhou City, and at this time, he couldn't help but be stunned, looked at Chu Feng with a shocked face, and asked suspiciously: "What is this......?" Could it be that it is a little sixth? ”

After seeing Chu Feng nodding with a smile, Liu Zhengqing couldn't help but sigh: "It's only been half a year, why have you grown so much taller?" Come and show me! ”

After that, he stepped forward, smiled and measured the height of Xiao Liuzi, and sighed in admiration: "In the end, it is still good feng shui in Tokyo City, and even the growth is faster, now Xiao Liuzi is a young man, and it is no longer the little leather who is running around on the roof and the cracks in the wall!" ”

Chu Feng smiled and nodded: "It does look like some adults, but it's a pity that the roof and wall cracks are still inseparable." ”

Xiao Liuzi glared at Chu Feng when he heard this, made a grimace, and said to everyone, "Call me if you have something to order", and then ran away.

Xiao Ting looked interesting, he had seen Xiao Liuzi a few times, but the latter didn't reveal much of his nature in front of Xiao Ting because he was a guest. Hearing these words at this time, Xiao Ting probably understood something, and had to ask a few more questions about Xiao Liuzi's past.

Chu Feng knew more, so when Mr. Cheng Yuan lived in a suburban village at that time, how this little sixth son worked hard in the village to create the name of "evil servant", Xiao Ting couldn't help but be surprised when he heard it.

"Chu Langjun is lying! Those things never happened at all! ”

At this time, Xiao Liuzi's angry voice came out of the window, Liu Zhengqing, who was very close to the window, hurriedly pushed open the window to look, and saw Xiao Liuzi jumping up from under the wall.

"He's adding fuel to the fire! Not the truth! ”

Xiao Liuzi emphasized again, waved his fist, and ran away angrily.

Everyone in the room couldn't help but burst into laughter.

After a little tea and snacks, and resting for a while, the sky darkened, and the three of them discussed it, and then took the car to the Drunken Immortal Building.

In addition to Xiao Ting's own carriage, Mr. Lu's carriage also followed, so that it was naturally convenient for everyone to return home after the banquet was dispersed.

It's just that now for the convenience of talking, the three of them share a car and gossip. Xiao Ting also put on the appearance of the host, opened the curtain and introduced the customs of Beijing to Liu Zhengqing, as well as the famous streets and alleys. There are many things that even the coachman does not know, and the two of them are amazed when they listen to them.

"By the way, I just remembered. The house that Brother Liu picked up before was Brother Chu's bedroom, right? If Brother Liu and his sister-in-law live there, where will Brother Chu live? ”

Xiao Ting suddenly remembered this stubble and asked curiously. (To be continued.) )
