Chapter 19: Invitations
The two of them didn't know what they were talking to Xia Canguang at this time, making Xia Canguang laugh.
As soon as Xia Canguang turned around, he found Zhou Jingxuan and Shi Zhongzhu, and immediately opened the jade-faced sandalwood fan in his hand and shook it.
Yu Mishui and Bai Yingtian understood, and hurriedly shouted at Zhou Jingxuan: "Brother Zhou, Brother Zhou, let us find you!" ”
As he spoke, several people rushed over, looking extremely affectionate.
Zhou Jingxuan saw that he had met the "God of Wealth", and the fatigue and anxiety just now were swept away.
"Brother Zhou, where do you live now?"
"Looking for an inn." Zhou Jingxuan told the truth.
Bai Yingtian shook his head: "What inn are you looking for, where can a person as smart and powerful in martial arts as you find a bowl of rice to eat?" ”
"That's it, our big brother is missing such a powerful helper! Why don't you all follow us? Speaking of Xia Canguang, Yu Mishui, who has small eyes and a collapsed nose, has a flattering face.
Zhou Jingxuan put away his smile when he heard this, raised his eyebrows and looked at Xia Canguang unhappily.
I saw Xia Canguang put away the sandalwood fan in his hand, knocked the back of his white hand heavily, and glared at Yu Mishui. Then he smiled at Zhou Jingxuan and said, "Why don't you live in my house for the time being, and then make plans?" ”
This Xia Canguang was originally the son of a wealthy businessman in the capital, and he relied on his father to go south and north, but he also accumulated some family business.
He was the only son in the family, and he grew up in the pampering of his mother's ancestors, and he lacked his father's discipline. So he was stubborn and abnormal since he was a child, and he didn't accept the discipline of Mr. Private School, so his family had to send him to the academy from near and far.
Who knew that after changing several academies in a row, either people were dissatisfied with Xia Canguang, or Xia Canguang was not satisfied with others.
But since arriving at this ordinary Pingju Academy, Xia Canguang has settled down, and he no longer opposes the dean and the masters.
Because of his wealth, half of the students in the entire Pingju Academy are his followers.
But he never knew: Zhou Jingxuan was the richest person in this academy. Otherwise, with his temperament, he would not be kind enough to deal with Zhou Jingxuan today.
Seeing Xia Canguang inviting him, Zhou Jingxuan didn't think about it, so he agreed.
Bai Yingtian took Zhou Jingxuan's shoulder: "Brother Zhou, don't worry, our eldest brother has always been merciful and hospitable."
Yu Mishui was busy on the side, echoing and nodding again and again.
Xia Canguang turned on the sandalwood fan again, and walked in front with his head held high.
Xia Canguang's mansion is located in a quiet area in the south of the city, covering a very wide area. The two large stone lions at the entrance are magnificent, and the marble steps are shiny and impressive.
After entering the door, you will see a Shu brocade carpet spread on the clean floor tiles, leading to the courtyard.
The house is full of flowers, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, and bees and butterflies are around. stunned Zhou Jingxuan.
Yu Mishui saw him look like a hillbilly entering the city, and asked him with a smile: "Brother Zhou, do you want to see such a good scenery every day?" ”
"Yes!" Zhou Jingxuan nodded again and again, and then frowned again: "Brother Xia didn't give me this house, didn't you think about it in vain?" ”
Jing Xuan said with a smile, "Xia Canguang waved the sandalwood fan, knocked down a pink butterfly that kept flying around him, and then stepped on it without hesitation. Only then did he sneer: "As long as you want to come, this son welcomes you at any time." ”
On the road, from time to time, people stopped to greet Xia Canguang, but Xia Canguang didn't even bother to raise his eyelids.
Bai Yingtian took the opportunity to persuade Zhou Jingxuan again: "As long as you follow our eldest brother, won't you be able to see each other every day?" ”
Zhou Jingxuan ignored him, and the fragmented corpse of the pink butterfly on the ground made him lose the mood to continue to visit the house.
He took a few steps to catch up with Xia Canguang: "Brother Xia, where are we staying tonight?" ”
Xia Canguang stopped, pointed to a row of houses and said, "This is it!" This is my guest room. ”
The guest rooms of Xia Canguang's house are all new, the coffee table is from the official kiln in Jingdezhen, and the tables and chairs are made of agarwood; There is also a large screen of pine and bamboo to welcome guests on the side.
Xia Canguang patted his chest and promised: "Just stay, tell them what you want, with this son here, no one will embarrass you!" ”
Zhou Jingxuan arched his hand back: "Then Brother Xie Xia's kindness." ”
"You're welcome!" Xia Canguang patted Shi Zhongzhu, and then patted Zhou Jingxuan's shoulder and said: "Don't worry, as long as you follow this son in the future, this son will enjoy endless glory and wealth!" ”
"Yes! Our Xia Gongzi values love and righteousness, and it will not be wrong to follow him. Everyone else followed, especially Yu Mishui and Bai Yingtian, who tried their best to flatter Xia Canguang.
"Brother Zhou, in the future, you will follow Gongzi Xia like us, only Gongzi Xia is the first to look forward, okay?"
Xia Canguang stood in the orange candlelight, smiling uncontrollably.
Zhou Jingxuan's heart was not used, although his mother was generous, but the money never came into his own hands. So he, like most poor children, has had a hatred of the rich since he was a child.
But today he had to endure it, for the sake of the other party's free accommodation, it was just a dog barking a few times!
He cheered up and laughed twice with hey, hey.
At this moment, I saw a servant come in and say, "The meal is ready."
Xia Canguang hurriedly beckoned everyone to go to the front hall for dinner.
Zhou Jingxuan was tired for a long time in the afternoon, but at this time he was sleepy again. He said that he had been in the city for most of the day today, he was too tired, and now he wants to rest!
Everyone thought that this reason was reasonable, so they didn't force it anymore, and after a few words, they all supported Xia Canguang and went to the front hall.
After they left, Zhou Jingxuan lay down on the stepping bed, and said, "Zhongzhu! Go and close the door to sleep, tonight is the king of heaven Lao Tzu is coming, and he will open the door, you know? ”
Shi Zhongzhu felt unsteady: "Childe, that Xia Canguang didn't have a deep friendship with us in the past, why did he take us in so kindly this time?" ”
"Whatever? Aren't you tired right now? Zhou Jingxuan gave up half of the bed, closed his eyes and asked him to blow out the lamp and go to sleep.
"Childe, are you really willing to be a dog leg for Xia Canguang?" Shi Zhongzhu asked softly, and all he answered was Zhou Jingxuan's even and steady snoring.
The night was uneventful.
The next day, Zhou Jingxuan slept until three o'clock in the morning before waking up. As soon as he woke up, he saw Shi Zhongzhu sitting there in a daze with two dark circles under his eyes.
As soon as Shi Zhongzhu saw that Zhou Jingxuan was awake, he hurriedly rushed over and asked him to leave here quickly.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Jingxuan asked puzzled.
Shi Zhongzhu quietly returned: "Childe, with Xia Canguang's personality and his family's businessman's nature, he won't let us eat white food, I think we should leave here, right?" ”
Seeing that Shi Zhongzhu wanted to leave here, Zhou Jingxuan had no choice but to nod and agree.
Shi Zhongzhu opened the door and saw a boy waiting under the porch, and when he saw them open the door, he hurriedly asked people to pour water over, and ran over to ask for peace: "My son-in-law said, if the son-in-law wakes up, after washing, he will take him to the front hall for breakfast." ”
