Three poles on the sun.

Chu Xiaoyefang came out of the room.

Lan Nixi was sitting in the small courtyard, chatting with Qin Mo'er, the eldest lady of the Qin family.

Qin Zhitan took a carriage to the dock early in the morning.

Qin Yu followed the housekeeper to the store.

Qin Wen, the eldest son of the Qin family who did not return last night and did not appear at the literary meeting, came back early this morning, and soon after he came back, he went out again.

Qin Mo'er was talking to Lan Nixi: "As soon as my eldest brother came back this morning, he was asking about you, he was supposed to come to visit in the morning, but he had something to do temporarily, so he hurriedly went out again. Sister Lannixi, why don't you play here for a few more days, my eldest brother knows a lot of friends, but take you everywhere to play. ”

"No need."

As soon as Chu Xiaoye walked out of the room, he heard this sentence and said, "We don't like to play." ”

When Qin Mo'er saw him come out, he hurriedly got up, looked at him with a bright look and said, "Young Master Chu, you don't know yet, right?" Your butterfly love flower last night has spread throughout Suzhou and Hangzhou, and everyone praises it. A lot of people are asking where you live and want to come and visit. ”

Chu Xiaoye frowned, and hurriedly asked, "Is Uncle Qin out?" ”

Qin Mo'er was a little unhappy, nodded, and said, "Daddy went to the dock to help you find the ship in the sea." ”

Chu Xiaoye thought for a moment and said, "Then we should also go." Let's go to the dock and wait first, if Uncle Qin finds it, we can get on the boat directly. ”

He had no doubt about the ability of those literati to find people, if they were blocked in this Qin Mansion, it would be troublesome.

"Ah, so fast?"

When Qin Mo'er heard this, her face was full of astonishment, and she said, "Daddy said that those boats will only leave in the evening." Young Master Chu, is it that our Qin Mansion has not done a good job and offended you? ”

Chu Xiaoye looked at this simple girl, didn't want to explain too much to her, and said, "You guys are doing a good job, I thank you very much for your hospitality, and I also thank Uncle Qin for helping us find a boat." But we have important things to do, we can't stay here for long, we have to leave immediately. ”

"But ......"

Qin Mo'er looked reluctant, and said, "Big brother hasn't seen you yet, big brother told me when he left in the morning, if you want me to take a good look at you, he will come back to visit you soon." ”

"Take a good look at us?"

Chu Xiaoye was stunned for a moment, and his expression suddenly became serious.

Qin Mo'er hurriedly said, "Big brother means to say that he wants me to treat you well." Young Master Chu, if you leave like this, the eldest brother will definitely scold me, saying that I didn't entertain you well and make you angry. ”

At this moment, there was a sudden noise of footsteps and talking outside the small courtyard.

Chu Xiaoye's eyes narrowed, looked outside the courtyard, and immediately said, "Lan Nixi, you take Fei'er and Catherine, and all go back to the house." Don't come out until I let you out! ”

Although Lan Nixi was puzzled, she did not hesitate at all, and immediately got up and pulled Fei'er, and said to the other girls: "Go, go into the house!" ”

She looked at Catherine.

Catherine looked at her king, and with a whoosh, swept straight into the house.

Qin Mo'er looked puzzled, stood up, also looked outside the courtyard, and said, "Young Master Chu, what's wrong?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a tall young man wearing a green shirt took the lead in stepping into the small courtyard and said, "Mo'er, what about Gongzi Chu and his friends?" I'm here to visit. ”

Then, when the young man saw Chu Xiaoye in the courtyard, he was stunned for a moment, and said secretly in his heart: Could it be him? So young?

This person is Qin Wen, the eldest son of the Qin family.

"Big brother, this is Gongzi Chu."

Qin Mo'er hurriedly explained, and then smiled at Chu Xiaoye: "Young Master Chu, this is my eldest brother, he said early in the morning that he was coming to visit you." Your poem last night, my eldest brother listened to it and praised it. ”

While he was talking, a group of young people holding folding fans and wearing literati robes walked into the small courtyard, and when they saw Chu Xiaoye, their eyes lit up, and they laughed and said, "Master Chu, you can make it easy for us to find it." Last night, you said that you would not get drunk and not return, but you left first, you are really not enough friends, let's continue today. ”

As the young men spoke, their eyes glancing toward the room.

These people are the young people who stopped him on the boat last night and prevented him from leaving, and were slapped by him and crawled on the ground, but at this time they were full of smiles and enthusiasm, as if they had seen old friends, and the things that were beaten last night seemed to have long been forgotten.

Qin Wen was quite respectful to these young people, and said with a smile: "I also came back this morning to find out that Gongzi Chu was a guest of my family, otherwise, I would have gone to the boat last night." ”

In fact, it wasn't that he didn't go last night, but that he was a businessman's family, and everyone looked down on him, and that Mei Gongzi didn't invite him at all.

He spent the night in the Qinglou near the Qinhuai River.

I thought that I would never have the opportunity to make friends with these noble-born boys, but as soon as I came back this morning, I found this great news, and immediately ran out and told these sons and brothers diligently and flatteringly.

It just so happened that these boys had been inquiring about the young man's residence and background since last night.

Hearing him say this, these boys and buddies, who usually ignore him at all, immediately became very enthusiastic, and took the initiative to hook up with him, chatting hotly, which flattered him and was excited.

"Brother Chu, this is Yang Shaoqing's son, and his father is my Qingtian master in Suzhou and Hangzhou. This is the son of Mo Ziqi, and his father is the captain of the South Gate of Suzhou and Hangzhou. This is Jiang Cong's son, his family is amazing, he is a model for my Suzhou and Hangzhou literati, a scholarly family for generations, his two elder brothers are both high school Xie Yuan, and they are official ...... in Kyoto."

Qin Wen immediately diligently introduced those sons and buddies one by one, and changed from "Chu Gongzi" to "Chu Brothers".

Chu Xiaoye counted, plus Qin Wen, a total of nine people, except for Qin Wen, the other eight are all sons and brothers with identity and background, gathered in this place, although they can't cover the sky with one hand in this Suzhou and Hangzhou, at least they can make a lot of waves, no wonder this Qin Dagong is stammering.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's a pleasure! Fortunately! ”

Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, Chu Xiaoye also hurriedly gave up his hand to greet him.

"Young Master Chu, I didn't drink well last night, and I must not get drunk today! Let's go, brother, I found a good place, guaranteed that the brother will like it! ”

The son-in-law named Yang Shaoqing immediately came over affectionately to grab him, and after finishing speaking, Fang suddenly seemed to remember something, looked towards the house, patted the back of his head and said, "Oh, look at me, I almost forgot." Master Chu, don't you still have a few friends? I heard that you are all from afar, the first time you come to my Suzhou and Hangzhou, hurry up, call together, let's do our best to be the landlord. ”

The other sons also hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, yes, call together, we can't favor one over the other, Chu Gongzi's friends are our friends." Quick, get those friends out. ”

The young man named Mo Ziqi walked towards the house as he spoke.

Qin Mo'er realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly chased after him: "Master Mo, there are girls inside, you can't go in." ”

When Mo Ziqi heard this, his heart suddenly rejoiced, he stopped, glanced at the other sons, and immediately smiled: "It's okay for girls, our women in the Southern Tang Dynasty can still go to school and serve the country like men." Miss Qin, you go in and tell them to come out, let's go out and play together. ”

Qin Mo'er frowned, standing still and not moving.

Seeing this, Qin Wen hurriedly reprimanded: "Mo'er, is Mo Gongzi talking to you?" Hurry up and go in, and invite all the girls out, and you can go out with us, and I'll send someone to tell him that it's going to be fine." ”

Qin Mo'er looked at the groveling and flattering appearance of the eldest brother, and a complicated look appeared in her eyes, as if she knew him for the first time, her heart was sour, and she said, "Big brother, we haven't seen each other for a year, you seem to have changed." ”

Qin Wen frowned, and when he saw that the eyes of those sons and buddies were all over, he immediately shouted with a straight face: "What are you talking about?" Come in and invite a few guests out, and when the eldest brother has time, he will teach you to read. ”

Qin Mo'er shook her head, rejected her eldest brother for the first time, and said, "If I don't go in, you can't go in either!" ”

Mo Ziqi next to him suddenly sneered: "Brother Qin, you are not interesting enough. We are kind enough to invite your guests to go out to play, your sister, it seems that we are all bad people? ”

Qin Wen was suddenly sweating profusely, his eyes shook, and he said to his sister, "Mo'er! Get out of the way! If you don't go in, I'll go in myself! ”

Qin Mo'er opened her arms and stopped at the door, choking back tears: "These guests were brought back by me and my father, big brother, they are not your guests, and they are all girls, you are a scholar, you should know how to avoid suspicion." ”

"Qin Wen, your sister, do you look down on us? Or do you Qin Wen and your Qin Mansion look down on us? ”

Yang Shaoqing said with a cold face.

"Smack!"

Qin Wen slapped Qin Mo'er in the face suddenly, and said angrily: "Get out of the way!" ”

With that, he grabbed her by the arm, pulled her to the side, and threw her to the ground.

Qin Mo'er cried.

The muscles on Qin Wen's face twitched a few times, and he immediately stepped forward to push the door.

At this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out from behind. grabbed him by the collar, "whoosh", and threw him out directly, "bang", and fell heavily on the bluestone slab four or five meters away.

Qin Wen was suddenly dizzy and in pain all over his body, and for a while, he couldn't get up.

"Why?"

Chu Xiaoye stood at the door, looked at him and said, "Master Qin, it's all my people inside, I haven't spoken yet, you just want to go in?" ”

Qin Wen lay on the ground, his painful face distorted, gritted his teeth and said, "You...... You ......"

This scene scared the other boys.

Chu Xiaoye walked over, helped Qin Mo'er on the ground up, helped her wipe the tears on her face, and said, "It's okay, I'm here, Miss Mo'er, you go out first." ”
