Not far from Guangdefang, in an alley near the West Market, Lang 13 slowly walked into a dilapidated mansion.

I said hello to the shopkeeper and went up to the second floor. The light inside is a little dim, the sky is blue outside, but the corridor is like night, so people can't find the north.

Don't underestimate such a shabby place, because it is close to the West Market, and the money spent on staying for one night is not a small amount.

Lang Thirteen has never cared about these, but he feels that it is cheap to enter the market, relying on the Su family's shop, he can save a lot of money compared to other mansions, and finally decided to live after thinking about it.

Chiseled the flint, and by the faint light, he went straight to the innermost chamber, and when he pushed the door, he smelled a strong smell of wine.

A look of displeasure suddenly appeared on his face, and he complained scoldingly:

"Silly boy, I don't fight, now that I am a good person, I want to pretend to be poor and pitiful here, who can I pretend to be here, can A-Ning's stinky girl see it?"

Scolding like this, he couldn't help but look at Lang Zhai who was lying at the head of the bed, and pouted angrily: "Could it be that I want to pretend to be your thirteenth uncle and me, I am a big man, don't expect me to learn from those women's hypocrisy, and take pains to comfort you or something." ”

Lang Zhai sat up slowly, and said with a bitter smile: "What to fight for, I am a Lang Lingfeng rural fang, Sister Ning'er was born elegant and noble, Zhao Jialangjun and Qing Wangye are all vying to pity her, and now it is the saints who look down on her, is it possible that I Lang Lingfeng really wants to rely on the love of Uncle Thirteen and the aunt of the Su family without face and skin, and go to make people's houses restless?" ”

"Hey", Lang Thirteen listened to his earnest words, and sighed stupidly: "You kid is a little self-aware, speaking of which, Uncle Thirteen can't stand you, I shouldn't let you have this infatuation, my niece Aning has always been high-minded, if it weren't for the divorce of Qingwangfu, I'm afraid I wouldn't have thought of you as a fang." ”

Lang Zhai smiled weakly again: "Why does Uncle Thirteen mention these things again, Sister Ning'er has suffered so many sins, and now if she can have a good home, Ling Feng is really happy for her." ”

Saying that, he suddenly cheered up and prepared to pack up: "Uncle Thirteen has also seen Aunt Su and Sister Ning'er, and I went back to Su Mansion today, my wish has been fulfilled, we might as well go back to Yangzhou earlier." ”

Lang 13 sat on the chair and stool angrily, slapped the guest table next to him, and reprimanded loudly: "What are you going back to Yangzhou, look at your little success, but you forgot your original intention after a little setback, what are our uncles and nephews doing, we want to get ahead, earn some fame in Chang'an City, and go back to raise our eyebrows." ”

"But .......", Lang Zhai paused, frowned, and didn't dare to continue.

Lang 13 softened his tone, and continued to himself: "Don't think nonsense, you just stay in Chang'an City, you put yourself in my shoes and think about my brother and sister-in-law and A-Ning, your aunt and uncle of the Su family will remember it in your heart, just now she told me personally, and when we settle down for a while, she will tell you about good family affairs." ”

Lang Zhai bit his lip and was silent for a while, then looked at Lang Thirteen, and said hesitantly:

"Ling Feng doesn't want to think about these things for the time being, if the thirteenth uncle has to stay in Chang'an City, there is nothing to do, but the Su family's aunt told the thirteenth uncle not to get involved in gambling money and prostitutes, but the thirteenth uncle has been intoxicated in the Persian mansion for the past few days, although the Su family's aunt has given a lot of money, it is always useful, and it is next to the Su family's shop, and it is very inappropriate for the Su family to know about it."

"Oh, you stinky boy is really noisy", Lang Thirteen pouted dissatisfiedly: "It's not that you haven't found a good way out now, you kid is still too shallow, Uncle Thirteen, you think I went to that kind of place purely to listen to music and drink." ”

Lang Zhai looked at him puzzled, the two looked at each other, only to see Lang Thirteen put on a stern posture and said earnestly:

"Do you know where the rich people in Chang'an City like to go the most, isn't it the Persian Mansion, listen to their narration more, and you can better understand Chang'an City, so that you can know what to do next."

Lang Zhai nodded suspiciously: "But it's better for Uncle Thirteen to go less, I'm afraid that kind of place is not something that people like us can afford." ”

"Got it, got it, noisy."

......

In the Su Mansion, it is very lively today.

In the morning, Lang 13 entered the house to see the lady of the big house, and Zhou learned that this guy was not here to look for trouble, but to retreat from the undecided family affairs, and he was the most happy in his heart, and ordered the servants to clean the courtyard more neatly.

Thinking that King Qing personally sent Suning'er home yesterday, he felt that something good must have happened today.

Sitting in the guest hall, I waited patiently for some hours, and then I saw Alai in the outer courtyard rushing in in a hurry, and reported loudly: "Second lady, second lady, no, no, no, someone came to the door to propose marriage." ”

Before Zhou could speak, Hui'er on her side reprimanded with a calm face: "Dead girl, what nonsense, how can you say that the happy thing is so depressed." ”

The Zhou family smiled unexpectedly, didn't blame Alai at all, and said softly: "Alai, you talk well, which noble family came to the door?" ”

Alai buried his head and raised his eyes slightly, and replied with a little weakness: "Yes, is it the Zhao family?" ”

"The Zhao family?" , Zhou's good face suddenly disappeared by half a point, and he said in a deep voice: "Which Zhao family?" ”

"It's the Zhao family of Yanshoufang."

"Zhao Yuanbai?" , Zhou was furious, straightened up and rushed to the outer courtyard, scolding as he walked: "This splash material, Tian Shelang, he still dares to come to propose marriage, he has no face and no skin." ”

scolded until the door of the house, and then stopped.

When the matchmaker saw the master of the house coming out, she stepped forward with a smile and bowed enthusiastically: "The slave family is polite when they see Mrs. Zhou." ”

Zhou endured his temperament and returned a salute with her, and said lukewarmly: "It's Mrs. Chen, if Mrs. Chen comes to the house as a guest today, the slave family is very welcome, but if it is for the sake of other things, then Mrs. Chen should not open Chrysostom." ”

Mrs. Chen looked very calm, and smiled with her slowly: "The eldest lady is now Mrs. Yilang, and her temperament is much more luxurious, the slave family and the eldest lady have not seen each other for a long time, and they really miss it tightly, isn't this also someone begging the slave family, and the slave family took the opportunity to come to visit the eldest lady, and by the way, appealed to the eldest lady the request of other families." ”

"In this way, it is fake that Mrs. Chen came to visit the slave family, and it is true to say that the Zhao family Saburo is pro-family", Zhou did not play dumb riddles with her, and replied directly:

"The slave family will not beat around the bush with Mrs. Chen, or what Fang Cai said, if Mrs. Chen comes to reminisce about the past, the slave family will be happy, but if you want to ask for Zhao Yuanbai to marry my family Ning'er, then please ask Mrs. Chen to go back and tell the fangzi, don't even think about it."

Chen Niangzi blinked in surprise, she didn't expect her to say so ugly, hesitated for a while, and persuaded with some embarrassment: "Liuniang, why do you have to talk about things so desperately, you should let the slave family meet the lady of the big house first." ”

"Heh", Zhou sneered: "Ning'er is also my own niece, can't I be an aunt and not be the master, Mrs. Chen didn't go to inquire first, what did the Zhao family's fangzi do a few days ago, and when my Su family was in trouble, he actually came to ask my poor Ning'er to be a concubine with him." ”

Speaking of this, she was furious and chattered endlessly: "Tian Shelang, who was in the twilight of the day, now sees that Ning'er is powerful and famous, so he rejected the Tao family's relatives, licked his face and begged to marry Ning'er's girl, Mrs. Chen, you say, can my brother and sister-in-law entrust Ning'er to him?" ”

"Is this the case?" , Mrs. Chen pondered with a bitter face, and then she was about to leave: "The slave family understands, it's really bothering, and the slave family will come to the door again another day to make amends to the two ladies for today's recklessness." ”

"Mrs. Chen is easy to go."

Zhou only thought that she didn't know the reason and personally sent her out of the door, so he hurried towards Tanghua Courtyard.
