Zhao Jiehao has two sons and a daughter, the eldest son Zhao Jie, who studied literature, raised people in the examination the year before last, and the second son Zhao Hao, who passed the samurai examination last year, is now a fifth-level samurai, and the youngest daughter is Zhao Shengnan.

The eldest son Zhao Jie is twenty-four years old this year, ready to enter Beijing to participate in the Ming Jing examination next spring, he ordered a family three years ago, is the daughter of Zhang Zhongshu, the governor of Pingjiang County, the fiancée is eighteen years old, they are going to get married, according to the customs of Donghai County, the man needs to welcome the bride to the husband's house three days in advance, and it must be 'ten dragons and two phoenixes walking the heavenly boat', that is to say, there must be ten men and two women in the wedding team (except for matchmakers, drummers and palanquins), and must also take a boat to welcome the family.

So Zhao Jie invited a group of classmates from the former county school, as well as his younger brother, to form the Ten Dragons, as for Erfeng, one is his sister Shengnan, and the other is preferably also a sister, but the Zhao family has only one daughter, so Zhao Shengnan invited Jiutian to go with her.

But Jiutian wanted to write a book with Wujin, but refused to go, and finally Zhao Shengnan's mother personally visited Mrs. Thorn Shi, and only after nine days had no choice but to go.

In fact, Zhao Shengnan's mother has other thoughts, she has long taken a fancy to Jiutian and wants to draw the line for her second son Zhao Hao, this time Zhao Hao also went with him, he got his mother's instructions, and he was courteous to Jiutian along the way, which made Jiutian very troublesome.

It happened that Guan Xianju, the eldest grandson of the Guan family, was also invited to go with him, and when he saw Jiutian's beauty, he was immediately shocked, and when he heard that she was the granddaughter of the country's priest wine, he was moved in his heart, and took the opportunity to stand up and block Zhao Hao's troubles for Jiutian.

Jiutian and Zhao Shengnan lived in the cabin on the second floor, today Zhao Hao used the excuse of looking for his sister to go up to the second floor, which made Jiutian extremely annoyed, so she asked for her surname and ran to the deck to hide, Guan Xianju found an opportunity at this time, so he held an umbrella and stepped forward to tell her the allusions along the way, the focus was naturally Fan Li and Xi Shi in Songling Town.

"There is the retreat of Xi Shi, and Fan Li is amphibious and sleeping, day and night, it can be described as a fairy couple, hey! It can really be said that you have to be more than a person to die, and I am willing to be a mandarin duck and not envy the immortal....."

Guan Xianju is more than half a head taller than Jiutian, and while he introduced, he secretly sniffed the green silk of Jiutian from time to time, only to feel the fragrance of the beautiful woman, which made him fascinated, and he secretly swore that he must make Jiutian his wife.

Although Guan Xianju introduced it romantically to the extreme, Jiutian's brows furrowed slightly, the girl was extremely sensitive to some things, although Guan Xianju was polite to her, but she felt that Guan Xianju was a little closer to her at this time, and his nose touched his hair.

There is a cloud in the etiquette, 'men and women get along, one foot is the etiquette', that is, the interaction between men and women, it is best to be separated by one foot, which is to give the woman a sense of security, until today, although this etiquette is gone, but everyone has their own safe distance, such as reading books in the library, listening to reports in the auditorium, will be deliberately separated from strangers in a seat.

Jiutian is also extremely sensitive, she feels that Guan Xianju has violated her safe distance, as the grandson of the first family of Weiyang, she should not make such a mistake in etiquette, coupled with Guan Xianju's deliberate rendering of that kind of romantic love story, Jiutian is sensitive to realize that Guan Xianju also has some kind of purpose for her.

In fact, Jiutian is not disgusted with Guan Xianju, and even grateful, after all, he helped himself block Zhao Hao's entanglement, if Guan Xianju can be a little calmer and slowly win the favor of the beauty, he may not have no chance, but Guan Xianju will enter Beijing in a month to prepare to participate in the Jinshi Imperial Examination, and there is not much time, so he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to win Jiutian's heart, so he is eager for a while.

If you want to hurry, Jiutian began to be a little disgusted with him, she didn't like others to have some kind of plot against her, she pretended to smile and should be with Guan Xianju, "It turns out that Xi Shi is in seclusion here, and this is the first time I have heard of it." ”

The body moved a little to the right, but at this moment, Wu Jin's boat passed by the painting boat she was sitting on, Wu Jin saw her with a smile on her face, Guan Xianju held an umbrella for her, and talked and laughed with her intimately.....

Jiutian was stunned, the young man with a hat on the opposite boat was very familiar, the hat covered his eyebrows, she didn't see it clearly, when the two boats passed by, she hurriedly ran to the stern of the boat, and stared for a moment, then she suddenly woke up, the man on the opposite boat was Wujin.

It's just that how could he be here, Jiutian's heart is a little messy, needless to say, Wu Jin must have seen her.

She bit her lip, and couldn't help but glance at Guan Xianju behind her with the corner of her eye, he was full of courteous smiles, and also chased to the stern to hold an umbrella for herself, Jiutian suddenly felt a biting cold attack, her face suddenly became very pale, she hugged her body tightly with both arms, and her voice trembled, "I'm a little cold, I'm going back to the cabin." ”

She turned around and walked towards the stairs, at this time, Zhao Hao also came down from the second floor, Guan Xianju suddenly remembered something, and chased after him and asked with a smile: "Miss Su, I don't know your name yet?" ”

Jiutian didn't seem to hear it, she went up the stairs, Guan Xianju was unwilling, he stepped forward again and laughed loudly: "Miss Su, the gardens in Pingjiang County are very famous, I'll accompany you to visit the gardens tomorrow!" ”

Jiutian stopped, she turned around and said lightly: "Thank you Guan Gongzi for your kindness, I'm not feeling well, let's talk about it later!" ”

After speaking, she nodded politely, then lifted her long skirt and went upstairs, Guan Xianju looked at her slender and graceful back, he was even more fascinated by this girl, he also realized that he was a little too hasty just now, to get the heart of this kind of woman, you must be patient, take your time, although he touched a nose of ash, but it doesn't matter, he has confidence in himself.

The groom's official Zhao Jie stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "I'm afraid it's not easy to get the favor of a beauty!" ”

"That's not necessarily, don't believe it, we'll see!"

Guan Xianju unfolded the folding fan on the ground, squinted and smiled.

．．．．．．．

According to Su Hanzhen's original intention, Wu Jin needed to accompany Chen Zhi all the time, but when he returned to Weiyang County, things changed, Chen Zhi was cold in the rain yesterday, and he had a slight cold, he didn't want to go out again in the past two days, and he didn't need to be accompanied by Wu Jin.

Su Hanzhen and Chen Zhi are fellow scholars, and the relationship between the two is very good, Chen Zhi lived directly in the Thorn Shi Mansion, while Wujin went back to the pawnshop, he was tired all the way, and he was in a bad mood on the way back, so he returned to his room, covered the quilt and fell asleep.

"Wu Jin!"

Huang Fugui knocked on the door vigorously, "What's the matter with you?" ”

He was holding a box in his hand, which contained six silver tickets with a denomination of 1,000 taels of silver, and the silver that Li Ji jewelry shop bought the land was, a total of 16,000 taels of silver, of which 10,000 taels of silver were lent to Huang Fugui for turnover, and the other 6,000 taels of silver Huang Fugui was about to be given to Wu Jin.

Seeing that there was no movement inside, he was a little worried, and knocked on the door again, "Wu Jin, don't you want to take a look at the silver ticket of Li Ji Jewelry?" ”

"Fifth uncle, you can take it for me first! I had a terrible headache and wanted to take a break. ”

It turned out that he was sick, and Huang Fugui knocked on the door again and said with concern: "Then I'll go and get you a doctor!" ”

"No, I'll just get some sleep, thank you, Uncle Five!" Wu Jin said in a sullen voice in the room.

Huangfugui shook his head and said to himself, "It's really weird, how could a young man who is as strong as a cow get sick, my family Zhongyong is so thin and not sick!" ”

Helpless, he just put away the silver ticket again, returned to the lobby, and as soon as he entered the lobby, he saw the guy Lao Qizheng and Luo Xiucai talking spitting, "I think it must be a heart disease, it must be the son who has fallen out of love, I know it in my heart!" When Xiaocui ignored me the year before last, I was like my son, using illness as an excuse, believe it or not? If you don't believe us, we'll make a bet! ”

"Old Seven, what are you talking nonsense again! Be careful that I withhold your wages. ”

Hearing that his wages were going to be deducted, Lao Qi shrank his neck and didn't dare to say anything, Huangfugui glared at him fiercely, and asked Luo Xiucai anxiously: "Did the ten night pearls get out of your hands?" ”

This is what Huang Fugui is most worried about, the ten night pearls died as five thousand taels of silver, if he can't get rid of it, he will lose miserably, and his heart hangs.

"Hey! Don't you believe me? ”

Luo Xiucai took out an envelope from his arms, smiled and handed it to Huangfu Gui, "Seven thousand taels of silver silver ticket, you can take a look at it yourself!" ”

Huangfu Gui was overjoyed, hurriedly took the envelope, and looked at the silver tickets carefully, all of them were the silver tickets of Donglai Qianzhuang, he put down his heart, although the silver tickets sometimes have fakes, but Donglai Qianzhuang absolutely not, that is the property of the King of Qi, no one dares to fake it to the head of the King of Qi.

"Huh! It's really hard for you. ”

Huangfu Gui smiled happily, this is the biggest money earned since the opening of Jinfu pawnshop, as soon as it changes hands, two thousand taels of silver will be in hand, of course, the risk is also very large, whether it is the night pearl or the buyer, as long as one of the links has a problem, he will be miserable.

At this moment, a crisp girl's voice came from outside the door, "Sister, this is it!" ”

Everyone looked outside together, only to see a carriage stopped at their door, and a very beautiful little girl came down from inside, and she was followed by a young woman in a yellow dress, like a hibiscus out of the water, extremely beautiful, everyone's eyes lit up, this is simply a fairy descending to earth!

Of course, this is Jiutian and her cousin Suyi, Jiutian has just rushed back, she went to Pingjiang County, and Shengnan met the woman's parents, this is considered to have completed her task, she took a carriage back to Weiyang County overnight, she was as careful as a hair, she knew that Wujin would definitely misunderstand herself, and she felt the need to explain it to Wujin.

Jiutian felt that she didn't mean that to Wu Jin, but at least as a friend, she didn't want Wu Jin to see herself as a frivolous and casual woman, she had just come to Weiyang County for less than two months, how could she have fought so hotly with a man, and it was the first day she had met, how could it be? Maybe in the eyes of other women, it is a great honor to be favored by the eldest grandson of the Guan family, but who is she, her grandfather is a dignified national son of the country, what is the Guan family, she hopes that Wu Jin can understand this.

Su Yi was just about to step forward, but Jiutian grabbed her, "I'll ask!" ”

She walked into the pawnshop, smiled lightly, saluted everyone, and asked softly, "Does Huangfu Wujin live here?" ”
