"Sir, there is still a guest at the door. ”

"Oh?" the old man straightened up, "why didn't you bring one in just now?"

"Master, I don't know. He was shabby, and he sat on the steps at the entrance of the mansion from the beginning, and I thought he was a chariot and a horse. But the other carriages and horses were gone, and he was still sitting there alone. I thought he had come to the house to find something to do, so I went over to ask him, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he said that he wanted to see the master. ”

"What does he look like?"

"He was about two or three years older than Yanshu, dressed in canvas, wrapped in an old scarf, and carrying a large medicine bag. By the way, he calls himself 'Frost Mountain Qi Rang', and I've never heard of this person. ”

"Frost Mountain ······" A glint flashed in the old man's eyes, "Old Song, bring someone in." Ying Zhao, you take Wenwen to play somewhere else. ”

"Yes. The old housekeeper and the middle-aged man responded. And the middle-aged man explained for a long time before taking the playful Wenwen away.

When Ying Zhao left the hall with Wenwen in his arms and passed through the courtyard, Lao Song was walking towards the hall with a young man. The two passed by, the young man's nose sniffed lightly, looked back at Ying Zhao's distant back, and after pondering for a while, his pupils suddenly constricted.

"Qi Rang, what do you want?" Old Song saw that the young man was stunned and beckoned.

"Oh, nothing. ”

Lao Song took Qi Rang into the hall, and the old man immediately greeted him and said, "Qi made the little brother wait for a long time, it was the old man's rudeness." Old Song, you go and wait outside the door, don't let people in. ”

"Yes. Old Song exited the hall and closed the door.

"Little brother, you sit. The old man brought the young man to the chair and sat down on the other side, "Today is a little year, why don't you invite the little brother to be wronged in the humble house for one night and have a small year banquet together?"

The New Year's Eve is a day at the end of the year when families are reunited. The New Year's banquet is divided into large and small years. On the day of the New Year, the family members who were outside rushed back one after another, and had a small dinner in the evening, called the Little New Year's Banquet. Seven days after the young age is the old year, and during these seven days, the family reunites to prepare the materials for the New Year's feast. The New Year's banquet on the night of the New Year is the real big day.

"Ying Xuan's predecessors are polite. The young man respectfully excused himself, "The boy has another patient in Kai Yi City, and I promised his parents that I would cure him before he was old. Tonight, it's inconvenient to stay longer. ”

On the occasion of the New Year's banquet, Qi asked the little brother not to forget the heart of hanging the pot to help the world. I have to say that the teacher has taught well. Ying Xuan saw Qi Rang's demeanor, so he touched his personality seven or eight points, and praised his master. Qi Rang smiled shyly.

Qi Rang has a steady personality, so that he is a little cautious, but trusts his master unconditionally. Directly praising or approaching Qi Rang will cause him to be alert and uncomfortable, but if he praises his master, it will invisibly shorten the distance between the two.

"Lingshi has been doing well lately. ”

"My tutor devoted himself to studying medicine in Kushuang Mountain, so that I could travel abroad, first, to gain a long insight, and second, to practice medicine and save people. However, I go back to Frost Mountain once every six months to visit my teacher. The last time I went back, my tutor asked me to give this to Ying Xuan's seniors in Kai Yuan City. Qi Rang took out a medicine bottle from the medicine bag and handed it to Ying Xuan.

Ying Xuan hurriedly took the medicine bottle with both hands and said, "The old man is really worried about the old man." The excited Ying Xuan didn't notice Qi Rang's hesitant expression.

"It's not convenient to stay longer tonight. The kid is a countryman, take a look in the house for a while, take a look and leave, and don't say goodbye, forgive me. Qi rang to get up.

"It's okay. If the little brother is interested, the old man can specially send someone to take him around. ”

"No hassle, thank you. ”

While the two were talking, there was a sudden knock on the door. Ying Xuan frowned, hid the medicine bottle under his clothes, and said, "Come in." ”

Ying Zhao's tall figure walked in.

"Where's Wenwen?"

"Playing with the maids. Ying Zhao approached Ying Xuan and whispered in his ear, "Master, Yanshu is leaving." ”

Hearing this, Ying Xuan's old face sank, and he said goodbye to Qi and left. Only Qi Rang was left alone to say to himself: "It looks like a kind old man, I hope I guessed wrong." ”

Along the way, Ying Zhao was silent, and led Ying Xuan through the center of the mansion and towards the backyard.

"What about others?" Ying Xuan finally spoke.

"In the stable, with Di'er. ”

"What are you doing together?"

"What can this do? Talk, just talk. The more Ying Zhao spoke, the more weak his heart became, "Of course, it may not be ······ now."

The stables in the backyard of Ying's mansion are very large, but during the New Year's banquet period, carriages and horses are needed for gifts and congratulations, and for receiving relatives and guests, so there are not many horses in the stables at this time. A handsome young man was holding a maid's hand, leaning on the back of a pillar, and with the other hand caressing the girl's little face, whispering some love words. There was also a subordinate on the side, and after adding fodder, he began to shovel horse manure as if no one was around.

"Ying Yanshu!" Ying Xuan turned around the corner of the wall, came to the entrance of the stable, and roared inside. The old man's angry roar echoed in the empty stable, shaking off several stacks of straw on the roof of the shed, and even the horses on the side were startled, and the subordinates hurriedly stabilized the horses.

"Master!" "Dad!" Both the maid and the young man were frightened by Ying Xuan and flashed out from behind the pillar.

The old man was so angry just now that he used his anger too much, and immediately began to cough after yelling. As soon as he saw Ying Yanshu, he was even more angry, coughing more and more violently, and almost lost his breath. Ying Zhao behind him hurriedly patted the old man's back to give the old man a good breath, and at the same time gave Di'er a look and signaled her to leave quickly. There is nothing to say about this kind of thing, the old man's fire is obviously aimed at Ying Yanshu, and it has nothing to do with Di'er. Besides, this stinky boy will inevitably be scolded for a while, and it is not good in front of his subordinates.

Ying Yanshu is very young, already a young man, but he still retains the childishness of a teenager. The eyebrows are clear and the eyes are beautiful, the appearance is handsome, it is a standard jade-faced Xiaosheng, and the jade willow swordsmanship of the Ying family was made by him to be superb. If he didn't say it, no one would have thought of what he was doing. Now he understood that he couldn't avoid this scolding, so he simply leaned on the pillar, lest the world be chaotic and said: "Dad, don't get angry at such an old age, what if you can't get up in the next breath?"

Hearing this, Ying Zhaoxin said: "Come on, I can't clean it up now." ”

"Ahem, ahem. I. Cough. I'm not angry that I can. Ahem, ahem. Will it work? Ying Xuan's face turned purple and forcibly suppressed his heart, "You little rabbit cub." You, you. You go out first. Halfway through speaking, Ying Xuan saw the person shoveling dung on the side, so he asked the person to leave first.

The man was extremely ugly, with deformed facial features and scars all over his face. Whether it's Ying Xuan or Ying Yanshu, I've never seen such an ugly person. But after hearing Ying Xuan's words, this ugly subordinate actually continued to shovel feces indifferently.

"Sir, he's deaf. Ying Zhao said, "A month ago, Lao Song and I accepted him to work in the house and gave him food. ”

"Hmm. Ying Xuan nodded. And Ying Yanshu on the side couldn't hide his joyful expression, there were outsiders here, although he couldn't hear it, but Ying Xuan would definitely not scold so hard.

"Stinky boy, what's your expression? Do you think I won't scold you in front of outsiders?" Ying Xuan's words were still harsh, but obviously not as excited as just now.

"No, of course not. You're a father, you scold me. ”

"You!" Ying Xuan has always been unaccustomed to Ying Yanshu's cynical appearance, "Okay, okay, even if you sincerely want to kill me, an old man, don't you think about Wenwen? Your mother died of that serious illness; your sister-in-law didn't survive the difficult birth when she gave birth to Wenwen; and your brother, there was an accident when you went to the tomb to investigate." Except for me, Wenwen is an elder of you. One day I will go away and rely on you to support this family? Can you take care of Wenwen like this?"

"Why can't I take care of Wenwen?" If it was something else, Ying Yanshu would never care about it, but not for this little niece.

"How do you take care of Wenwen? Do you look serious? You hang out in that kind of place. ”

"How can it be mixed? I just don't want to bury our Ying family's swordsmanship. ”

"Shit! That's why you joined the Charm Ministry! No one will collect your body when you die!"

"Master!" Ying Zhao hurriedly grabbed Ying Xuan and looked around. Fortunately, there was only one deaf man in the stable, except for the three of them. Ying Zhao said softly: "Don't always mention this matter, it is inevitable that there will be ears on the wall." ”

Hearing this, Ying Xuan also gradually calmed down and said, "Okay, you have joined the charm department, and I can't let you quit." Today is a young man, do you still want to leave? You can't come back a few times a year, and as soon as you come back, you flirt with the maid! Leave after flirting! Are you a brothel at home?" As he spoke, the old man's face turned red again, and Ying Zhao couldn't stop him.

"I'm just going to report to the charm department, and I'll definitely come back for the New Year's party. Your son has grown up, since he has a skill, why don't you let me break in?"

"Do you think you are very capable? Ying Zhao, let him know what the sky is high and the earth is thick!"

"It's a brute, how could I have beaten it!"
