、、、、、、、、、、 Early the next morning, Rokuro really followed Shiro and went to find Zhang Gorou together. Zhang Wulang has not yet gotten up, he only has an old lady, heard that there is a guest, so he helped a girl who is still combing the bun, about ten years old little girl came out to entertain guests, seeing that it is Shiro, I can't help but be happy, please enter the house and sit down, push the little girl to call Zhang Wulang to get up and wash the tea pot, his own carefully took the key from the skirt to open the lock and take the tea to sencha soup.

Peony carefully measured Zhang Wulang's house, but saw that it was a two-entry courtyard, bluestone brick paving, an old jujube tree in the middle, a few white, yellow, orange chrysanthemums were planted along the wall, the wall was as white as new, and the tables, stools, and furniture screens in the middle hall were all new, although they were not complete, varied, but they were also pleasing to the eye.

Zhang Wulang's wife saw Peony looking at her house, so she smiled and said: "Little lady, this is all my son recently bought back from earning money, new and good, you come to sit on this crescent stool, which is covered with Shu brocade." Only you, a beautiful little lady, are the most suitable to sit. ”

Liulang almost didn't laugh out loud, Peony glanced at him, thanked Zhang Wulang's old lady, sat on the crescent stool according to her words, and praised her new home according to her wishes. Shiro also exaggerated Goro's appearance, and Zhang Wulang's wife listened to it with crooked eyebrows, and brought out another plate of sour dates to entertain guests. The plate was a gilded silver plate, and Mrs. Zhang specially showed it to others, and said that Zhang Wulang earned it.

Before the water boiled for the first time, Zhang Wulang wore a half-open robe, pulled his shoes, tied his trouser belt as he walked, and walked in with a yawn: "Why did Fourth Brother He come to look for me at this time?" Isn't it business today? Seeing the peony sitting under Liulang, he was frightened, hurriedly stepped out of the door to hide under the eaves to tidy up his clothes, slapped the little girl's head by the way, and scolded in a low voice: "Kill you stinky girl, why didn't a female guest squeak with me first?" ”

The little girl said in a crisp voice, "You didn't ask." Who told you to come out without getting dressed? ”

It's such a loud voice, and the people in the room can't hear it if they want to. Zhang Wulang was so angry that his face turned red, and he shook his lips and whispered, "Hey! You eat white food, you dare to be so fierce! Be careful that I kill you. ”

The little girl stuck out her tongue and grimaced at him, and ran away, Zhang Wulang couldn't do it, so he had to be cheeky and enter the house to greet everyone, only to greet Peony when he didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at her, and shrank next to He Shilang with a void, and through He Shilang to cover most of his body and face, it was estimated that Peony couldn't see him, Fang smiled: "What kind of wind is blowing today?" Blow all your brothers and sisters into my kennel. I slept late yesterday and neglected the guests, so I hope I don't want to be surprised. ”

"No blame, no blame." Shiro smiled, "You're a kennel?" If we come into the kennel and sit, then we will be the same as you. ”

Zhang Wulang blushed slightly and said, "That's what I mean. ”

Liulang said: "Fifth Brother Zhang, don't be modest, I think you're having a good day." Lucky these days, okay? ”

Zhang Wulang said with a smile: "Fortunately, I got a good chicken a few days ago, won seven games in a row, and won 500,000 yuan and a gilded silver plate." ”

Liulang's eyes widened: "Isn't it Danniang's peony flower that is still valuable?" ”

"She is sure to make money and not lose money, I have wins and losses." Zhang Wulang laughed: "Besides, I'm a vulgar thing, and she's an elegant thing, how can I compare it?" Don't say it, don't say it, what are you doing today? I know you're all busy, no better than an idler like me. ”

Shiro hurriedly said: "There are two things to ask for, one is that I want to go far away, and the spice shop in the East Market will be temporarily handed over to Rokuro to take care of, and he wants to invite Goro's brothers to have a light meal, get to know each other, and make friends." The other thing is that Danniang asked you for help. ”

"It's a simple matter ahead, just pick a day and set a time to talk to me." Zhang Wulang looked at Peony, Peony hurriedly explained his intentions, and said with a smile: "After that, I will have to thank all my brothers." ”

Zhang Wulang waved his big hand boldly: "It's all small things, Danniang, you just have to rest assured, I will take care of it." But you should still ask around and show others how to make a difference, so as not to lose your distortion. ”

Peony smiled: "I have planned to do this for a long time, so I will go here immediately." ”

Shiro got up and said goodbye: "I'm going to go far away, and there are many things to prepare, so let's say goodbye first, and go to my house for a drink tonight." ”

Zhang Wulang yawned and sent them out: "You are busy, I won't add it, and when you come back, I will set up soft feet to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you, and when the time comes, you can drink as much as you want, and drink as long as you want." ”

Shiro stopped and whispered, "We can bring a few more people on the boat." ”

Zhang Wulang was silent for a moment and said, "I'm not that material." I can only do some lackey things, besides, I still have my wife at home, and the one who eats rice, what will I do if I leave? Thanks, thanks. The two shogunes pushed Shiro out of the door and closed it tightly.

Shiro sighed, and Liulang said disapprehantly: "I said that the fourth brother, you are really lenient, and the marriage is determined, and it is also destined that this person is destined to eat a bowl of rice by nature." I don't think he's necessarily worse off than us now, at least he doesn't have to take such a big risk to go to sea, play and make money, why not? ”

Shiro frowned and said, "Daddy, you didn't take your words to heart." Didn't you hear him? There are losses and wins. He often wins because he's the one who sets the game, and most of the time he doesn't get out of the game. If you really want to gamble, how many people do you think don't lose? And the money from gambling is always ......"

Liulang didn't treat him as politely as He Zhizhong, and said impatiently at the moment: "What money is not money?" You guys go shopping, I'll go to the shop. After saying that, he threw Peony and Shiro and went straight to the East Market.

Shiro sighed: "Your sixth brother's temper can't be changed, Danniang, don't expect him to do anything in the future, talk to the second brother and Golang, and hide what should be hidden, he can't be trusted." This time, his father wanted to take him there, but he thought that he still didn't have any children, and after coming and going, he delayed it twice, and Aunt Yang wanted to cry again. ”

Peony was speechless for a while, followed Shiro around a few Taoist temples and temples, made enough noise, and saw that the sun was past noon, and then returned home. Walking to the door, Peony saw two horses tied to the door of his house, so he said, "It seems that there is a guest coming?" Striding into the gate, I saw Wu sitting in the gatehouse and laughing with the door in a low voice, Peony's heart couldn't help beating violently, it turned out that Jiang Changyang was here. It came pretty quickly.

Seeing Peony standing outside, Wu quickly got up to say hello, and said with a smile: "Our duke heard that Master He and the Grand Duke were going to sea, and they should have gone to Baqiao on the 26th to set up a banquet to say goodbye and fold willows. But on that day, the prince happened to have something important and couldn't get out, so he came to the house in advance to say goodbye. ”

It turned out to be my own family, no wonder. Peony smiled: "It's really polite." Isn't there a guest in the house? ”

Wu smiled and said, "The guest left this morning, and we sent the guest into the city." ”

Peony couldn't help but think that Jiang Changyang could personally send Zhu Guogong into the city, probably because the relationship between the two had been repaired this time? It was because of Chengjue's affairs that Jiang Ergong was so violent, riding a horse and galloping, desperately torturing Jiang Changyang's beloved horse? The more she thought about it, the more she felt reasonable, and remembered that there was no purple horse among the two horses at the door, so she asked, "Why didn't the purple horse come today?" ”

Wu said quietly: "The purple horse is a little injured, I'm afraid it won't be able to do it for the next two months, so it's good to give birth." But he didn't mention the matter of Jiang Ergong, and Peony couldn't ask much, so he had to order someone to entertain Wu and went into the backyard.

She was worried about the result of the conversation between Jiang Changyang and He Zhizhong, washed her face and changed her clothes nervously, and after looking for a book, she felt distraught and couldn't read it after only turning two pages, so she had to lean on the couch in front of the window to tease and talk and mix up time.

I don't know how much time has passed, there is still no news in front, Peony couldn't lie down anymore, got up and brushed his hair in the mirror, thought about it, and took a tube of pink nail decoction lipstick given by Mrs. Bai and lightly applied it, took several photos in the mirror, and then took Kuan'er to Mrs. Cen's room.

When I got outside, I only heard the laughter inside, Peony opened the curtain and walked in, and saw that it was Mother Lin, Aunt Feng, and Aunt Yang who were sitting and talking with Mrs. Cen, and the four of them were all smiling, so they said: "I heard your laughter from afar, what do you say so happily?" ”

Mother Lin said with a smile: "Aunt Yang is talking to Mrs. about the customs of Yangzhou, and it happens to be talking about driving a boat and beating drums, pouring wine and offering sacrifices to the gods, and blessing peace." ”

Peony smiled: "What are you doing when you mention Yangzhou in a good way?" ”

Mother Lin glanced at her meaningfully, and said with a smile: "Didn't you just talk about Lu Wulang?" I remembered that I happened to be a fellow villager with Aunt Yang, so I talked about it. It is said that Yangzhou is prosperous and rich in water and soil, but unfortunately there is no chance to see it. Aunt Yang sighed. ”

Peony was not interested in Yangzhou at this time, and only cared about the front, so he grinned at the corner of his mouth, walked to Mrs. Cen and sat down next to her, while playing around Mrs. Cen's nepotism, and pretended to say: "Isn't Dad at home today?" Why don't you see him? ”

Mrs. Cen heard He Zhizhong tell what happened last night, and she didn't poke her, but only pulled the skirt away from her hand and gave her a justifiable reason: "Your father is playing chess with guests in the study." It's that Jiang Gong, I'm just about to send people to the front to see what they want to eat, so that they can cook it in the kitchen, since you are idle, just go and take a look. ”

Peony answered, got up and went, the closer she got to the study, the more uncomfortable she felt. This was the last time Jiang Changyang came, she took the initiative to take the initiative, and she did it naturally at that time, but at this time, she felt that the ease at that time was completely absent.
