、、、、、、、、、、 This day's visit made him break through the highest level of cheekiness in the past life and the next life in one day. From the blushing and embarrassed and uncomfortable at the beginning, to smiling naturally and grinding foreign workers with people in the back, making friendships, and doing everything possible to see the master of the house in person as her own responsibility, she felt that she was a little closer to a successful woman.

The first family surnamed Tian was Shangshu Zuocheng, who was on the fourth upper rank, and it was also the highest-ranking family in the family downstream of her village. When the family handed over the famous thorn, the concierge was quite polite, and after a closer look, when he asked, he turned his face and said that his wife was not something that anyone could see if he wanted to. Seeing that the situation was not good, Yuhe immediately stepped forward to apologize and say good things, and handed a small purse, and then people said to her with their nostrils, you can go and ask the steward to come out.

But what came out was just a little steward, as soon as he saw the peony, his eyes couldn't help but look up and down, and he didn't have any rules and regulations, and he dragged him to death, making a Feng lady angry to death. Peony was also so angry that he wanted to leave with his sleeves up, but he still endured his anger, gave him a visit and a break, showed his face, and grinded for half an hour before coaxing and frightening him to report to the chief steward.

She was lucky, and the big steward was free and bumped into it. It is not surprising that many people are courteous, but the chief steward is much more reasonable than the little steward, and he is also knowledgeable and calm. Seeing Peony's appearance, even though he was still amazed, he quickly suppressed the surprise, and after Peony said that he had no other intentions, he finally promised to transfer the gift and apology brought by Peony to the lady in charge, and said a few thoughtful words: "Xiao Niang is really polite, it's not a big deal, the river is originally from that village, if you want to repair it, just repair it, don't worry." ”

Peony was overjoyed, and while asking the name of the chief steward, he said that his mother's family owned a jewelry shop and a spice shop, and if he needed it in the future, he could go to his own shop and give him the best goods and the best price. Then he motioned to Yuhe to send a small porcelain box of dipterocarp incense, and asked him to try the incense.

Nowadays, the application range of spices is too wide, especially this dipterocarp, which is difficult for ordinary people to use, and the steward is really moved, reported his surname Jiang, and said that he actually knew the spice shop of the He family, and praised Shiro for being bold and righteous, and there were no fakes in the spices in the shop, and the price was fair.

Peony mentioned the hardships of wanting to support herself as a woman and buying land and building a garden, saying that there are no more requirements, just hoping that neighbors can coexist peacefully. Steward Najiang was silent for a moment and said, "Little lady, wait a minute, wait for me to ask Madame if she has time to see you." After speaking, he set his eyes on the gift brought by the peony, and said with a smile: "Dare to ask what the gift brought by the little lady is?" ”

Peony said: "I heard that Tian Zuocheng likes to write poems and paintings, and this is Shu paper." ”

Steward Jiang laughed: "You little lady is careful and elegant. Wait for my message. After saying that, he ordered the man to carry the salute and go back.

Yuhe looked at Peony excitedly, and Peony returned her with a bright and confident smile. Everything is difficult at the beginning, she is now like those who run sales, if she wants to live better, if she wants to get more, she has to be reserved and shy, she will deal with all kinds of people, she will be angry, she will be relieved, the more people she knows, the more she knows, the more one she has.

It is a fact that officials look down on the small people and businessmen, but people are not stones, they all have likes and dislikes, as long as they find the right direction, they can always say two words. What's more, she doesn't want to make friends with anyone, talk about life, talk about ideals, but the relationship between supply and demand, put her identity and mentality right, naturally she doesn't have so much anger and injustice. Over time, she can always let people know who she is and know that she will not suffer when dealing with her, and this supply and demand relationship will be established.

Not long after, the Jiang steward came out with a decent servant woman in her forties, wearing a cyan skirt, and said a little apologetically: "Our lady just has something to go out, and she can't see the little lady." However, she heard that Xiao Niang was going to go to the other two families, and she was worried that you didn't know it, so she asked Mama Zheng beside her to lead you to those two families. ”

Peony didn't have much hope, she just thought that it was a surprise to see it, and it was normal not to see it, but when she heard that people were willing to take her to the other two families, she felt that this was the rarest surprise. Hades is so good that the little ghost is difficult to shake, she just now in order to enter this Tian family, she has been grinding for nearly an hour, and has challenged her patience and self-esteem several times. She was not afraid that the two families would make things difficult for her, but after she was afraid of making things difficult, she gave a gift, but she did not seriously hand the words to the master, but was swallowed by the slaves below. With the help of Mama Zheng, the doors of the two families were easy to enter.

Not to mention whether the lady of the Tian family is really humble and considerate, there must be the credit of the Jiang steward. Peony seriously expressed his gratitude to the Jiang steward, and politely asked Mama Zheng for help, and had to let Yuhe secretly make a little bit of a difference, and she was close to Mama Zheng.

Walking down in a circle, among the households, although only one family surnamed Chen, the wife of the fifth guerrilla general, saw the peony, and the other families were all in front of the chief steward, but they all accepted the peony gift, and said that it was not in the way, and let her just let go of her hands and feet to construct. Therefore, the identity of Peony's new neighbor has been confirmed, and the possibility that this family will follow Na Deng to make trouble is basically equal to zero.

Although Peony was tired and hungry, she felt very relaxed and had a sense of accomplishment. Seeing that it was too late, I had to invite Mama Zheng to eat and drink. Once born, second ripe, since the opportunity comes, you must grasp it, maybe when you will ask for someone again. She always believes in a truth, giving is not necessarily rewarded, but if you don't pay, there must be no return.

That Mama Zheng was a little disdainful of the merchant daughter like Peony who took the initiative to come to the door to recognize her neighbors, maybe she still wanted to cling, but seeing that Peony was born beautiful, behaved elegantly and decently, and was simply generous, Aunt Feng and others were no different from the slaves from these official eunuchs, and they knew the rules very well, and they didn't do anything that shouldn't be done and shouldn't say anything, so they gradually accepted the arrogance and accepted Peony's invitation to invite her to dinner.

Peony doesn't want these people to think that he is a rich and well-behaved boss, so the restaurant he chooses only pays attention to the taste and the quietness of the environment, and the dishes he orders are just suitable, but the attitude is indeed very warm and thoughtful. Coaxed Mama Zheng happily, and after she was full of wine and food, Fang personally sent the person back. I also added two good snacks that the restaurant is good at, and asked Mama Zheng to hand them over to Steward Jiang.

After the big thing was done, the master and servant stood in the shade of the locust tree on the side of the street, all of them showing fatigue on their faces, only the peony was full of energy, and shook the reins vigorously: "Let's go, let's go to Fashou Temple to meet Master Fuyuan." ”

One of the family members looked at the bright sun, wiped his sweat with his sleeve, relying on the fact that he was a person He Zhizhong trusted, and also thought that Peony was soft and considerate, so he persuaded Peony: "You are weak, you should rest." You might as well go home and rest first, and come back tomorrow. ”

He thought he was going out to enjoy? Peony sneered and glanced at Aunt Feng. Aunt Feng looked back at the two family members who were following listlessly, and scolded: "What's the matter, could it be that the wine and meat didn't feed you?" Can't walk? It's more delicate than the master, isn't it? Then don't come with me next time. ”

Peony sneered: "It's not a question of whether to follow or not, but since you have received the errand, you must finish it." Otherwise, everyone can leave if they can't do it, and no one will do this errand anymore, so what's the use of raising you? After speaking, he didn't look at the faces of the two family members, whipped them on the horse's buttocks, and went first.

The two family members couldn't do it, so they had to hurry up and follow. Aunt Feng smiled and whispered to Yuhe: "The sex is much harder than before." In the past, if you had to be sympathetic to your subordinates and go home leisurely, or if you wanted to take money and goods out to reward you and say good things for a while, it would make people kick their noses and cheeks more and more. That's good, do what you have to do, and do it if you don't! ”

Yuhe smiled confidently: "Danniang has changed a lot these days. I always felt that she must be very promising in the future. ”

Aunt Feng sighed: "You follow her, be smart, don't always be so stupid." ”

Seeing that his mother looked down on him, Yuhe said angrily: "Why am I staying?" Danniang often praises me for my ability. ”

Aunt Feng glanced at her: "You are very capable?" Why didn't I see it? ”

Peony looked back and smiled: "Auntie, Yuhe is indeed very capable. ”

Yuhe, who was praised, finally couldn't help but make a grimace at Aunt Feng, who glared at her fiercely, and then couldn't help laughing again.

Peony went unfortunately, the monk Fuyuan was playing chess with people, she didn't dare to disturb, so she had to sit in the bamboo forest outside the cottage to rest and gossip, and the little novice who had eaten too much of the vegetarian snacks she gave was like a match.

Nine-year-old Ruman ate too much of the vegetarian points and fruits brought by the peony, and was very enthusiastic about the peony, grinning with two rabbit-like big white teeth and smiling: "Female donor, on such a hot day, you must be very thirsty, right?" Master's next game of chess will take at least an hour. Today's guest has brought me some tea, and I'll fry it with you. ”

Seeing his mischievous face, Peony said: "Since it is a good tea given to your master by others, it must be precious, so you dare to fry it with me?" ”

Ruman smiled and said: "My master is very busy playing chess, you just have to wait for tea, I naturally have a way." And so that he can't find my fault. ”

Peony looked over from the bamboo forest, but saw that the monk Fuyuan in the grass hall not far away still maintained the same movement as when he came in, motionless and with a dull expression, while the guest opposite him was covered by a straw curtain and didn't see if he was as stupid as him. Then he played with his heart and said with a smile: "You go, you go, if you really get me to drink, I will give you ten peaches tomorrow." ”

Ruman tiptoed into the grass hall, and saw that the monk Fuyuan and the guest in the green robe opposite were all meditating, and all their attention was on the chessboard, so he pretended to say: "Master, this tea is cold, and the apprentice will give you another sencha." ”

Monk Fuyuan really didn't squint, and said sleepwalking: "You arrange it yourself." ”

Ruman immediately opened the white rattan tea cage brought by the green-robed guest, took out a piece of delicate tea cake, and moved calmly with his hands and feet. Less pouring, the tea is ready, he first found a pair of Xingzhou white porcelain tea pots to pour tea soup, and presented them to the Fuyuan monk and guests with both hands. Then I found a Yuezhou porcelain tea pot and poured it with tea soup, and tiptoed it out to give it to the peony.

Monk Fuyuan didn't pay attention, and put all his mind on the chessboard, but the green-robed guest saw it, and quietly pressed a chess piece, completely ending the battle: "I lost." The person outside the monk of Fuyuan has already taken winning and losing very lightly, smiled calmly, and was about to speak, but the man pointed outside and laughed in a low voice: "Your little apprentice has come to be a guest, and the tea pot given is better than that used by your master." ”

"Chengfeng, I think you're jealous than you, right?" Monk Fuyuan was not angry, and got up lightly with him, standing behind the straw curtain and looking out. But seeing Ruman holding the tea pot and walking quickly into the bamboo forest, after a while, there was a woman's crisp laughter in the bamboo forest, and a proud boast.

The guest smiled narrowly and looked at Monk Fuyuan: "It seems that she is still a female guest." ”

Monk Fuyuan didn't feel uncomfortable at all at his narrow smile, and only said, "Ruman, where do you take my tea pot?" ”

There was a silence, a good rest, like a man stammering in response, hanging his hands and walking out of the bamboo forest, followed by a peony holding a tea pot.

Peony saw the person standing next to Monk Fuyuan at a glance, and couldn't help but be stunned, how could he be on Jiang Changyang again? Immediately opened a sweet smile, said hello, and before Ruman opened his mouth to admit his mistake, he bowed to Monk Fuyuan and said, "Master, I deceived Master Ruman into asking for good tea." ”

When the monk Fuyuan saw that it was a peony, he couldn't help but smile slightly: "When did the female Tanyue come?" He glared at Ruman, who shrank his head again, "I don't know if I came to report it, and I secretly sent a cup of tea, as if I didn't give it to the guests." ”

Peony was a little surprised by the Fuyuan monk's escape today, and automatically guessed that it was because he won the chess, so he smiled and said: "It's been nearly half an hour." Because he saw the master playing chess, he didn't dare to disturb the mundane things. ”

The monk Fuyuan introduced the peony to the friends around him: "He Shizhu asked me to govern the garden for her, and it is a coincidence that her village is adjacent to your village, and you are also neighbors." ”

Peony had already stepped forward with a smile and saluted Jiang Changyang: "Jiang Gong is okay when he comes." She didn't expect that Jiang Changyang also knew Monk Fuyuan.

Jiang Changyang said with a smile: "He Niang, don't come unharmed, delay you." ”

Peony hurriedly said: "Where, it's me who disturbed the two of you Yaxing." ”

Monk Fuyuan said: "The female Tanyue came today, but what happened to the drawings of the garden?" ”

Peony originally wanted to invite him to go for a trip in the next few days, so that he could be a witness in case of emergency, but when he saw Jiang Changyang here, he felt that it was difficult to speak. I was afraid that Jiang Changyang had said such a sentence before, but she didn't appreciate it, and she ran around, arranging everywhere to find other solutions, which disgusted him, and felt that she was not respectable. He didn't plan to mention this matter in front of Monk Fuyuan anymore, but said casually: "It's not that something happened to the drawings of that garden, but I want to ask the master a question about strange stones." ”

Monk Fuyuan smiled: "Please speak." ”

Peony blinked and said with a smile: "Last time you told me that the garden stone is the top of the Lingbi stone, and the English stone is slightly inferior, but these days I have been asking around, how come I can't meet a good one?" Even if they do, they're all small. Do you know where you can buy the big ones? ”

Monk Fuyuan couldn't help but be amused by her: "These two kinds of stones are precious and rare, tall ones are especially rare, and a few feet tall is considered precious." In this short period of time, you will not be able to find it. It is not as good as the lake stone. ”

Peony already knew that this was the result, so he pretended to be taught and said, "I know, I'll ask someone to buy lake stones when I go back." Since Jiang Changyang showed no signs of leaving, it was no fun for her to stay, so she got up and said goodbye.

When she walked away, Jiang Changyang smiled and said, "I think she has something else to do with you, but it's just because I'm not good at talking here." ”

Monk Fuyuan asked rhetorically, "Since you know, why don't you leave?" ”

Jiang Changyang said: "Everything pays attention to the first come, the first come, my business is not finished yet, so naturally I will not leave." What's more, her matter of looking for you is definitely not as important as mine, do you agree? ”

Monk Fuyuan frowned: "You are not her, how do you know that her affairs are not as important as yours?" What if I don't say yes? ”

"What she asks of you is nothing more than that garden." Jiang Changyang smiled slightly and sat down on the straw mat: "If you don't promise me, then I won't leave." When you're willing, you'll talk about it again. ”

"I can't see that you're still a bit of a scoundrel." Monk Fuyuan waved his sleeves a little angrily: "You go to take your demon monk and be your hero, why do you have to get involved with me?" ”

Jiang Changyang said: "You can't tell me to shave my head and get in, right?" Even if I shaved my head and got in, how do you tell me to talk to them about Buddhist scriptures? ”

Monk Fuyuan had a calm face and said lightly: "If you don't go, you won't go, you can sit here if you like to, don't blame me for not giving you food." ”

Jiang Changyang didn't seem to see his displeasure, so he went to his bookshelf to flip through the books, and waited until Ru was full of fasting rice, and without waiting for Monk Fuyuan to speak, he grabbed the meal before Monk Fuyuan to eat.

Monk Fuyuan was angry, snatched the chopsticks and bowls in Ruman's hand, and grabbed pickles with him. Jiang Chang raised his head and didn't raise his head, moving chopsticks like flying, no matter where the Fuyuan monk picked, he just picked what he wanted, and without waiting for the Fuyuan monk to eat half a bowl of rice, he had already swept away the other meals, and looked at the Fuyuan monk with satisfaction: "The rice tastes good." ”

Monk Fuyuan was half dead and said, "How can you be like this? Everyone else only said that this man was a good man, but he knew how thick this man's skin was when he was thick. He's done a break today.

Jiang Changyang said in surprise: "Don't you know that the most important thing I have always pursued is to eat first no matter what?" ”

The two of them were arguing here, but they were full of sobs and wept. Monk Fuyuan hurriedly said: "Ruman, what's wrong with you?" ”

Ruman looked at the two of them aggrievedly: "I'm hungry and have nothing to eat." ”

Jiang Changyang couldn't help laughing, and Monk Fuyuan sighed and said, "Don't cry, go to the kitchen and let them get some more." Let's just say I said it. ”

Ruman immediately put away his tears, cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks of the two of them, and jumped out. Monk Fuyuan sighed: "Is this matter important to you? ”

Jiang Changyang said without hesitation: "Very important." ”

Monk Fuyuan sighed and said no more.

The afterglow of the setting sun spilled in through the cracks in the straw curtains, gilding all the simple furnishings in the room with a thin layer of gold, and Ruman, who had been ordered to go to the kitchen, ran back in a hurry: "Master, there is a duke outside who is also surnamed Jiang who wants to see Jiang Gong. ”

Monk Fuyuan raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Changyang: "No, I've found it." Do you see it or not? ”

Jiang Changyang said calmly: "Since I came, why didn't I see it?" ”

After a while, Ruman came in with a young man who was wearing a pine-colored round-necked narrow-sleeved robe, with skin like jade, and a little similar to Jiang Changyang between his eyebrows, and when he saw Jiang Changyang, the prince showed a bright smile exaggeratedly, gave him a big salute, sat down in front of Jiang Changyang affectionately, and said with a smile: "Big brother, I heard about that incident." You'd better not go, right? Whatever you want, Daddy will tell you anyway, and we have no complaints, as long as you open your mouth, it's all yours, and you don't have to fight with your life. ”

Jiang Changyang glanced at him quietly: "Did you bring your words?" ”

That Jiang Gong didn't expect that he didn't react at all when he heard his words, he was a little surprised, and said reflexively: "Yes." ”

Jiang Changyang said: "Then I know, you can go." This is a quiet place for Buddhism, so don't disturb the master. ”

Jiang Gong hurriedly said: "You still want to go?" Do you hate us? I ......"

Jiang Changyang suddenly laughed and stretched out his hand to stop him: "You and you are all wrong, I don't resent you." I have so much to do, and so many ideals and ambitions that have not yet been realized, how can I have time to resent you? I don't have time, and I don't have that leisure. "If you really don't have a grudge against anyone, of course there is, after all, he is also an ordinary person, but resentment is really not worth mentioning compared to doing what he wants to do.

Jiang Gong was a little stunned, resentful people also need time and leisure?

Jiang Changyang grabbed a chess piece in his hand and said lightly: "You go back." You tell her that over the years, we actually don't have time to hate anyone, and I came this time to sort out some of my mother's possessions, and then do something I want to do, and it has nothing to do with you, you can rest assured. ”

Jiang Gong could hear the disapproval and seriousness in Jiang Changyang's tone, rather than perfunctory or pretentious posture, he had a feeling of being despised at the moment, and forgot the advice of his family before he came, and said sharply: "Since you look down on these and don't resent them in your heart, why do you still use the banner of the Duke of Zhu Guo to cause trouble everywhere?" Causing trouble at home? ”
