Shen Zhong sighed and raised his head.

"Third brother, it's not that the second brother won't help you in this matter. Let's be honest with you! The drawing was drawn by Xiao Xia. ”

"What?" Shen Zhi stood up excitedly, his face full of disbelief.

"How is that possible? What does she know about a little girl? I'd rather believe that the drawings were drawn by you, second brother. ”

No one likes to listen to others look down on their children, Shen Zhong is proud of Xiao Xia.

"I know a few words, don't you know? The eldest brother was sent to the school, and then it was me, but you were smarter than me, so my father and mother didn't let me enter the school and sent you in. You still taught me those words. "To say that Shen Zhong can have no grievances? Without resentment, he wouldn't have remembered it so clearly.

"Are you resenting me, or are you resenting your father?"

"I don't resent anyone, I know that I can't get into Xiucai, I can't get into Jinshi, and I can't be an official."

Shen Zhi sneered. "The second brother is really talking now, and what he says is really good. So you say so much, isn't it to not give me the drawings of the waterwheel? ”

"I just said that the drawing was drawn by Xiao Xia, I didn't, what did you ask me to give you?"

"She's not your daughter, doesn't she listen to you?"

"That's it!" Old man Shen screamed, his hand holding the cigarette bag and pot trembled a little, saying that he didn't regret it was fake, he couldn't make a bowl of water even, he only thought about the third child in his heart, and put the third child first in everything, and now looking at the discord between his brothers, Old Man Shen felt uncomfortable and couldn't do it at all.

"Shen Zhong! Whether you resent your father or not, just be your father This is the last time you beg you, and I won't help the third child speak again in the future. You give the drawings of the waterwheel to the third child! He is the life of an official, let's let him go high! ”

Listening to Old Man Shen's bitter words, the two brothers were silent, and Shen Zhi looked at Shen Zhong with his eyes full of imperativeness.

Shen Zhong sighed, didn't look at Shen Zhi, but looked at his father, who had aged a lot, and sighed.

"Dad, if I had the blueprint of the waterwheel, I would definitely give it to the third brother. However, I really don't have it in my hand, Xiao Xia left yesterday and went to Shaoyang City Mansion, she said that she knew a big official from the capital, and she wanted to dedicate the drawings to that big official. ”

"What?" Shen Zhi's eyes popped out, and he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.

"Shen Zhong, you are a despicable villain." Shen Zhi got up and left after scolding, with his understanding of Shen Zhong, he knew that maybe what he said was the truth. It's even more amazing if it's the truth, he hasn't had time to clean up that dead girl, and every time she's making trouble for herself.

Yesterday's departure, Shen Zhi felt that he might still be in time to chase now, he wanted the drawings, the high-ranking official from the capital, he might also be able to get strong, is it easy for a little girl to do it herself?

Shen Zhihuo left in a hurry and didn't say hello to anyone.

Old Man Shen sighed, stood up, walked over and patted Shen Zhong on the shoulder. "Xiaoxia, that girl...... Ay! It's your blessing and your curse, you can do it yourself! ”

Xiao Xia didn't know what was happening at home, Shen Fei drove the carriage, all the way in a hurry, he had already been here once, and the road was familiar, and he didn't waste much time on the road, and he entered Shaoyang City five days later.

"Girl, where are we going to stay?" Shen Fei drove the carriage and walked on the spacious road, looking at the lively street scene, but he didn't expect that in less than half a year, he followed the girl again.

Chunhua lifted the curtain, her eyes were a little insufficient, she rolled her eyes and looked around. The girl said whatever. I still look for a lively place to live, so how convenient it is to see the excitement. ”

Shen Fei didn't answer, he said, and the horse ran forward.

Chunhua hurriedly stopped Shen Fei. "Slow down, slow down, this Yueyang Building is good, let's live here!"

Shen Fei stopped the carriage.

Xiao Xia lifted the curtain of the car and saw that it was an antique three-story building, tall and exquisite, with slightly warped cornices and colorful paintings, and the spirit was majestic. Just look at the plaque, the blue background gold characters, the bottom case is exquisitely drawn, the font is imposing, and the glazed stones are inlaid around, shining in the sun, and it is unique.

Xiao Xia got out of the carriage and straightened the hem of her skirt.

"Let's go, let's live here."

Entering the Yueyang Building, the carved beams and paintings inside, the decoration is splendid, Xiao Xia's first impression is that this store will not be cheap.

Sure enough, when Xiao Er saw someone, he began to greet him warmly, looked at Xiao Xia's dress, and there was not even a piece of valuable jewelry on his body, followed by a big and three thick maid, and the enthusiasm just now was gone.

"We cost three taels of silver for one night in Yueyang Building, and at least two taels of silver for a meal, girl, are you eating? Or do you want to stay in a hotel? ”

Xiao Xia didn't even look at the little er, and raised his feet and walked inside.

"If you want a private room, eight of your best dishes, and two upper rooms, we will have to stay for at least three days."

Chunhua followed behind Xiao Xia and smashed away the shopkeeper who looked down on people with dog eyes. "Your shabby shop is really dark, I knew that we were the Fengyun Hotel opposite."

That little two was hit, almost hit a heel fight, listened to the words of the master and servant, angry didn't speak, and wanted to live in the Fengyun Hotel opposite, dream!

Chunhua glanced at him, took the purse around his waist, and directly grabbed a large handful of golden beans from it, one golden bean was just one or two. I shook my purse again, and there was a clanging inside, and I thought there were quite a few of them inside.

Xiao Er was shocked, he didn't expect these people to be really a master with silver, and glanced at the girl who was dressed too plainly in front of him, and wondered in his heart, that young lady didn't wear gold and silver, what good was there to wear it all on his head to swagger through the market, I was afraid that others didn't know how noble he was, why did he meet an alternative today?

Before Xiao Er could change into his usual enthusiastic smile, a sneer came down from upstairs.

"What a poor ghost who doesn't know the height of the sky, and he doesn't know how to read! If you don't know the signboard at the door, you won't inquire, and you'll be embarrassed to come in. ”

Xiao Xia looked up at the girl who was staring at her, her face full of sarcasm and malice, she only felt a little familiar, but she just didn't remember where she had seen it.

"What do you see, lame girl, this girl is what you deserve?" The girl who spoke was dressed in a bright red cardigan skirt embroidered with large peony flowers, combed her buns, and wore red gold and gem-inlaid jewelry on her head and neck.

Since they said it, Xiao Xia lowered his head and continued to walk inside. Xiao Er smiled awkwardly, knowing that it was his performance just now that made the guest upstairs misunderstood, and it was not easy to explain now, so he could only nod with a smile on his face, and take Xiao Xia's master and servant upstairs.

When the girl upstairs saw it, she slapped the table, blushed and yelled at the little two who were about to go upstairs.

"Little Er, you're blind! Anyone brings it in. Can't you let us, the guests who spend money, eat in the same building with the beggars? ”
