Before Li Yijian talked about his family, he always said that his family sold herbs and was a wealthy businessman in Luoyang.

Shen Qiu didn't care about it, thinking that this bald young man's home was probably a big pharmacy, and he always equated the Bao Zhilin in his memory with the Li family.

But Shen Qiu, an outsider, only after entering the Li family's mansion could be regarded as having a deeper understanding of the word "wealthy businessman".

In front of you, is this a place to live?

Shen Qiu couldn't help but ask himself.

This pavilion and water pavilion, rockery pavilion, and a secluded corridor are connected to it.

What's even more outrageous is that in the artificial lake in front of him, there are 3 in the Li family's house!

Between the small lakes, there are also dug ravines and rivers to connect, connecting the whole garden as a whole.

Yes, this Li family mansion has risen to the position of a garden in Shen Qiu's heart, and it is not inferior to the Yu Garden he had seen in his previous life.

It's just a little smaller.

But this is in Luoyang City!

It is not built by you outside the city, no matter which dynasty, in the city walled by the wall, the residential land is always limited.

In this prosperous place, there is such a garden as a mansion, which can be seen in the wealth of Li Yijian's family.

Actually, think about it.

Although Li Yijian said that his father handed Lei Ye a greeting post several times, he couldn't enter the gate of Lei Mansion.

But Lei Ye is the leader of the Heluo Gang, and he is also a well-known figure in the entire Central Plains.

The fact that his own worship post can be accepted by the Lei Mansion already shows that although the Li family is not as powerful as the Lei Mansion, it is by no means an ordinary businessman.

Since ancient times, the trading of medicinal materials has been an extremely profitable business, and malicious competition is naturally unavoidable, but the Li family can be rich for decades, and it is certainly not as peaceful as it seems on the surface.

Li Yijian also said that he has the door of Xiaoxiang Sword Gate in his family, and the high-ranking faction in the land of the two lakes is probably the backstage of the Li family.

"Two distinguished guests, please come with Xiao Li."

A maid dressed in family clothes led the way for the two dusty Jianghu guests, walking in the labyrinthine wooden corridor of the Li family's mansion.

If no one leads the way, Shen Qiu is afraid that he will get lost in this garden.

Qingqing didn't care, she was still in the mood to comment on the surrounding landscape as she walked around.

"This small lake is quite delicate, but the craftsmanship is too heavy when it is built, and it is not a good scenery."

Qingqing turned her head and said to her senior brother:

"The flower and bird garden in our Luoyue Qintai is very famous in Suzhou, and Li Yijian will go to Suzhou another day, and he will also take him to enjoy it, so that the rich second generation in the Central Plains can also see our Jiangnan scenery."

"The Falling Moon Qintai belongs to your sister Yaoqin."

Shen Qiu said casually:

"That's not our family, all we have is a small courtyard of the dart bureau, which is not as big as the Li family's toilet."

"Cut, it's boring."

Qingqing rolled her eyes, and she said to her senior brother:

"Sister Yaoqin treats Master as an elder, and she is the size of my sister."

"I know that Senior Brother, you have become more and more suspicious recently, but Sister Yaoqin is very good and treats us like family, didn't you fall in love with her at the beginning?"

"That's when it started."

Shen Qiu shrugged his shoulders and said softly:

"Now your senior brother is no longer the same Shen Qiu as he was at the beginning."

The discussion between the two made the maid who led the way couldn't help but glance back, these two Jianghu guests were very young, wearing rough clothes, and they couldn't see anything special.

But it is said that the young master of his family was rescued by these two, which is a great kindness, and the old lady ordered that he must be treated with courtesy.

The maid didn't dare to say much, and quickly took Shen Qiu and Qingqing to the back of the mansion and entered the mansion, which should be a guest room, but it was also trimmed as much as other places.

An ancient style building, with the words "Tingtao Pavilion" written on it, there are already several servants in Tsing Yi waiting at the door.

"We have prepared hot water and a change of clothes at home."

The maidservant said to Shen Qiu and Qingqing in a warm voice:

"The two distinguished guests will rest first, the lord has ordered, and in the afternoon, there will be a family banquet ready, and I will invite the two to the table at that time."

"My young master also specially instructed that the two distinguished guests are from the rivers and lakes, so they do not need to be restrained, and they act freely, if they have any needs, they will inform the servants, and someone will prepare them for the distinguished guests."

"It's excellent, of course."

Shen Qiu nodded and said to the maidservant:

"Thank you for me and my junior sister, your young master."

"Young heroes don't have to be polite."

This servant girl is a servant, but she speaks and acts generously, not as silent and low-key as other servants, and should be a person like the head of the Li family.

She raised her head and said to Shen Qiu sincerely:

"I grew up with the young master since childhood, and the young master ran away from home, so I was very worried, and the old lady didn't think about tea and dinner these days, and the house was extremely depressed."

"Today, the two of them brought the young master home, and the whole house is very grateful, and I also want to thank the two young masters for the young master."

"You are very much in love with Li Yijian."

Qingqing quipped:

"Just now I saw you standing next to Li Yijian, holding his hand and secretly wiping your tears, do you like your young master?"

The little junior sister hit a straight ball, and the servant girl who hit her cheeks flushed.

She lowered her head and whispered:

"The maid's name is Hanxiang, just the young master's personal maidservant, how dare she have such wishful thinking, it's just... It's just that the young master has been happy since he was a child, and he can't calm down, and he doesn't understand the love between men and women..."

"Yes, that rammer is an elm head."

Shen Qiu threw the burden to the little girl in Tsing Yi in front of him, he moved his shoulders and said to the maidservant:

"If I were him, with this red-sleeved fragrance on his side, and two cute girls who didn't guess about it, he would have been happy for a long time, where would he go to the rivers and lakes of Laoshzi."

These words were even more blatant, and the cheeks of the shy maid were hot.

This is another poor person who has been brainwashed by the feudal era, just like the original Qingqing.

"Rest in peace, guest."

Hanxiang lowered her head, she commanded the servants to guide Shen Qiu and Qingqing to clean up, and she sent the two to the door of the small building.

Shen Qiu suddenly remembered something, he turned his head to Hanxiang and said:

"I'm looking for a few herbs..."

"What the young man said is."

Hanxiang breathed a sigh of relief, and she said to Shen Qiu:

"As long as you have it prepared at home, it will be delivered immediately."

"Okay, you remember the herbs I want."

Shen Qiu read the medicine that Cha Bao used to refine her palms in her memory, and Hanxiang repeated it, and after there was no mistake, she left quickly.

Not long after, a servant brought a small box of medicinal herbs, all of which were of the highest quality.

At this time, Shen Qiu had just finished freshening up in a large wooden barrel, and he declined the request of the Li family's maidservants to serve.

Let a strange woman rub his back and wash him, this decadent culture of feudalism, he really can't enjoy it.

After taking a bath and taking time to wash his long hair, he was relaxed, and Shen Qiu changed into the clothes prepared by the servant.

It was real silk and satin.

Light and beautiful, it is natural to wear on the body, but it is very troublesome to wear, and Shen Qiu does not know much about the wearing of ancient Hanfu, so he has to ask a servant to help.

After changing his clothes, Shen Qiu stood in the room, holding a bronze mirror that was not very clear, and took a picture up and down.

He was dressed in a blue kaftan with sleeves reaching to his elbows.

Lined with a black suit that covers the skin, there is a robe like a shoulder on the outermost part, and a black belt around the waist, embellished with white jade, the texture is some kind of treated animal skin, quite tough.

This belt also has a concealed buckle, which is not as convenient as a modern belt, but it is not easy to fall off when fastened.

Shen Qiu finally didn't have to tie his pants with a rope.

The skirt of the robe on the lower body reaches the calf, which feels a little weird, as if wearing a skirt, but it does not affect the movement.

Underneath the skirt of the robe are black trousers.

The servant was afraid that the young man would not be used to wearing flat cloth shoes, so he thoughtfully prepared long boots, just like high boots, made of tough coarse cloth.

But the inner lining is fur, and there is a rope behind the boots to tie it tightly, which is quite comfortable to wear.

This outfit already has the appearance of those chic young heroes in Shen Qiu's memory, but no matter how you look at him, he can't wear that chic feeling.

Probably because he is really not so handsome.

After washing off the dust on his face, Shen Qiu's not-so-outstanding face was reflected in the mirror.

He reached out and stroked his cheek.

This is not the face he remembers, but a trace of the past can be vaguely seen between his eyebrows and eyes, and the 16-year-old boy's cheeks are still a little immature, but those eyes are quite calm.

There was a sense of calm that didn't belong to his age.

Shen Qiu draped his black hair over his shoulders, tied a single ponytail behind his head, tied it with a headband, and pushed two strands of long hair to the side of his cheeks, which could be regarded as faintly covering the fine fluff on his cheeks.

He didn't want anyone else to feel like he was too young.

Young people always have to be underestimated and bullied, can they not suffer, why should they suffer?

"Uh..."

Shen Qiu put down the bronze mirror and planned to take a nap, but when he thought of going to the family banquet for a while, he dispelled his sleepiness.

He tied the sword jade to his wrist, sat in the living room of the room on the second floor of the Tingtao Pavilion, opened the medicine box sent by the servant, took out the familiar or unfamiliar Chinese medicine, and put it in front of him to look at it.

"Three taels of horse chestnut lotus, two half maple lotus, black tiger, jackal camphor, blood wind root, this is... Knotweed? There are also broken bones. Well, they are all good medicines for bruises, and they are also suitable for refining bones. ”

"The medicine statues are all of the highest grade, and they are made by ancient methods."

Shen Qiu had studied Chinese medicine when he was in school, but he had never seen real ancient herbs, and these herbs in front of him should have been carefully concocted by the pharmacist of the Li family, and the medicinal effect was not clear, so he always tried it himself.

He took the stone pestle and, according to Cha Bao's memory, crushed them in different categories, or added them whole to the small jar of boiling medicine, and a servant came in and lit a fire.

After a short time, a jar of medicine began to boil, and the taste was not too good, so Shen Qiu got up and opened the window, lying on the edge of the window, looking at the scenery outside the window.

He could still hear the snoring of the young girl next door.

That girl slept soundly.

Qingqing doesn't know how to develop this temperament, occasionally smuggling, occasionally ghostly, even if he frequently causes trouble, it's really annoying.

And this girl's luck is really good, every time she is in danger, she can turn evil into good fortune.

Qingqing doesn't have too many doubts about him, but if he goes to Suzhou on this trip and meets his unruly old friends in the past, can he still hide the past?

Shen Qiu couldn't help but think in his mind.

Why don't you send Qingqing to Suzhou and leave quietly by yourself?

This is also a good way, but if she leaves like this, Qingqing will inevitably be sad and sad, with that girl's character, she may sneak out to find herself, and then she will inevitably have a trouble.

Besides, I don't know much about this ancient river and lake, the road is difficult, and there is not even a roadside guest house.

You can't go back to Taihang, be a mountain ghost, and be a wild man in the mountains, right?

Alas, a dilemma.

Half an hour later, the medicine jar on the small stove was already boiling, Shen Qiu looked at the color, the medicinal materials in the jar had been boiled into a ball of amber, this is it.

Cha Bao's bone quenching ointment is not a secret mastery, according to Qingqing, as long as it is a high-grade sect, there are similar quenching drugs.

The effect of these drugs is actually not as wonderful as the quenching medicine in the novels of cultivating immortals, which can turn decay into magic.

They are more of an adjunct.

Shen Qiu extinguished the fire, waited for the ointment to cool, and asked the little man at the door to fetch a few plaster cloths dedicated to plasters, and after cutting them properly, Shen Qiu used a spoon to apply the ointment to the palm of his hand.

Cover every inch of skin, even between your fingers.

After applying it, he wrapped the ointment cloth around his hands, just like boxers wrapping their fingers, and in a short time, Shen Qiu's two hands were wrapped like mummies.

But the looseness of the bag does not affect the activity.

He continued to make it, and sent his servants to bring more medicinal materials, and made enough plasters for the month and put them in the medicine box, and these bone quenching plasters were enough for him to return to Suzhou.

The return of these plasters alone did not teach the bald boy in vain.

Shen Qiu put on the black gloves left by Cha Bao to cover the abnormality of his palm, and between the movement of his fingers, there was the crisp sound of iron pieces colliding.

He pushed open the door, walked out of Tingtao Pavilion with the Yanling knife, and played a set of knife techniques in front of the small mansion, and as he moved his body, the plaster also had a faint heat that extended the skin into the flesh and blood.

Shen Qiu walked according to the true qi of Lei Gong's heart method, allowing the true qi to run in the meridians of his hands and promote the volatilization of the medicinal effect.

"Quenching the bones for three months will make the bones of the hand strong."

"Quenching bones for one year, there will be a new life, two years later, the hand bones are tough, not easy to fracture, can lift a hundred pounds of things, can block the attack of sticks."

Shen Qiu let out a sigh of relief, this method of quenching bones is a necessary aid for cultivating the Wind and Thunder Fingers, and it is necessary to change the herbs every day.

He was really a little worried, after 2 years of application, his hands were afraid that they would be the same as smoked chicken, with their own herbal fragrance.

"Senior brother! You've changed your clothes, and it's so beautiful. ”

Qingqing girl didn't know when, pushed open the window, and was lying on the edge of the window, supporting her chin with both hands, watching her brother practice knives.

This girl also changed her clothes, and turned her scattered hair into the same bun as Miss Lei Shiyin, and seemed to have returned to the state of a little girl in Suzhou.

"Right? Senior brother also thinks this dress is very good. ”

Shen Qiu snorted, he raised his head and said to Qingqing:

"You also come down, practice martial arts, don't be lazy."

"I'm wearing a nice dress."

Qingqing's mouth pouted and she could hang the oil pot, and she said dissatisfiedly:

"Besides, I don't want to fight and kill, just practice martial arts casually. Even if you encounter danger, it is enough to have a senior brother. ”

"You tired girl, come down!"

Shen Qiu shouted, but Qingqing smiled and didn't answer.

Just when the two brothers and sisters were fighting, the maid came with a fragrance, she blessed Shen Qiu, and said softly:

"Are the two young heroes hungry? Come with me. ”

"The old man and the young master are waiting for the two of them in the side hall, and they also specially prepared many local dishes in Luoyang to catch the wind and wash the dust for the young man."
