Li Tiantu came to Zhu Mansion for the first time, although he had heard of the wealth and luxury of Zhu Mansion many times, and he had also thought about the appearance of Zhu Mansion countless times in his mind. But when I really saw it with my own eyes, I couldn't help but sigh secretly.

The Zhu family has been the richest businessman in the world for hundreds of years, and has been prosperous for three times. On both sides of the door, a pair of seven-foot-high white jade lions of the town house, the plaque of the Zhu Mansion on the courtyard is inlaid with gold and jade, and the layout of the whole mansion gives people a sense of garden-style luxury, which is a kind of poverty and luxury to the extreme.

Zhu Fatzi, who was lying on the couch covered with brocade satin quilt with Erlang's legs crossed, was loosened by his beautiful maids, and heard the rumors of Li Tiantu's visit, and a bone came out of the gentle township, and he trotted all the way to the gate regardless of the cold, but saw Li Tiantu looking at the white jade lion calmly.

Zhu Fatzi breathlessly said: "Brother Li, the courtyard is too deep, and my legs and feet are not good, so I've been waiting for a long time." ”

Li Tiantu still stared at the jade lion of the town house, and said without replying: "You really should lose weight, otherwise even if the ninth princess enters your deep mansion compound, she won't be able to stand your physique." ”

A few of the Zhu family's gatekeepers not far away were dumbfounded, what is the origin of this young man, in addition to saying the taboo of his young master, he also talked about the ninth princess who is the most favored by the saint today.

Last year's incident is still fresh in their memory, Li Mo, the only son of Li Shangshu of the Criminal Department, was lecturing for the children of the Hanlin Academy, because of his different views with Zhu Wenwu, the two argued endlessly, Li Mo said "fat head and big ears, detrimental to the clear stream of scholars" Zhu Wenwu, who was agitated, fought in front of dozens of students of the Hanlin Academy present, and beat the head of Li Mo, a bachelor of Hanlin who was powerless, to break the blood flow, and lay on the couch to recuperate for more than two months.

Li Shangshu of the Criminal Department was annoyed and angry, and threatened to join Zhu Wenwu the next morning, which frightened the old lady Zhu to take out the eight treasures and jade Ruyi, which had been treasured for many years, and personally went to the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department to apologize, which eliminated Li Shangshu's resentment.

As a party to Zhu Wenwu, he didn't care and still went his own way.

To the surprise of the people of the Zhu Mansion, Zhu Wenwu heard Li Tiantu's words, and nodded like pounding garlic: "What Brother Li said is very true, from today onwards, I will get up early every day to lose weight." ”

It seemed that Li Tiantu was quite interested in the white jade lion, and Zhu Wenwu said again: "This jade lion has a good texture, and the material is produced in Kunlun. ”

Li Tiantu suddenly realized in his heart, no wonder this jade lion gave him a sense of familiarity, but he just chuckled and said: "Other people's mansions use stone lions to town houses, and Zhu's mansion is really luxurious, and two jade lions are used." ”

Zhu Wenwu's eyes were confused, and he said abruptly: "A few years ago, I had the honor to travel to Kunlun, Kunlun's majesty and spirit are not comparable to other mountains and rivers, and even the jade produced in this mountain is full of spiritual charm, with the charm of Kunlun Mountain." Back then, when I pressed the foundation of this pair of jade lions, I made more than ten zhang of ground, and my wish was that they would stand for at least a thousand years. ”

After saying it in one breath, Zhu Fatzi seemed to have a little remorse, and said with a wry smile: "I don't know why, but in front of you, I can't help but say something in my heart that I can't usually say, Brother Li must be very human." ”

Li Tiantu took out a big red invitation card from his bosom and said with a smile: "What? I came all the way to send you an invitation, and you didn't invite me to visit the house? ”

Zhu Wenwu patted his head and said, "When I saw Brother Li, I was overjoyed and forgot about it." ”

The internal landscape of Zhu's Mansion did not disappoint Li Tiantu, but it was still nine cold days, and he lost his interest in watching.

Zhu Wenwu's study is as warm as spring, four three-legged hollow carved copper stoves are distributed in the four corners of the room full of Persian red carpet, the copper furnace exudes a stream of heat around the body, but there is no smoke and fire, and there are wisps of light fruit wood fragrance when you smell it carefully.

Li Tiantu knows that this kind of fruit wood is produced in Nanban, and it is extremely difficult to fire, and it is difficult to find a thousand gold, even if the palace is not much in stock, it is only used by the emperor and the queen mother and a few favored concubines.

As soon as Zhu Fatzi entered the door, he snatched the invitation card from his hand and said excitedly: "Big brother, this is Yan Mengyu's invitation to catch the wind for the ninth princess." ”

Li Tiantu nodded and said, "Not bad." In the past few days, I have heard that the Ninth Princess has a very bad impression of you, even if Yan Mengyu has the heart to invite you, the first talent in Jiangbei, I am afraid that the Ninth Princess will dispel the idea. ”

Zhu Fatzi suddenly hugged Li Tiantu's arm, and said gratefully: "Big brother, I didn't expect you to be so concerned about the little brother's affairs, woo!" ”

Zhu Fatzi took out a free hand and rubbed his eyes vigorously, wiping it for a long time but not a single tear.

Li Tiantu shook his head and said coldly: "Don't be hypocritical, even the eldest brother has been called out, I'm not as big as you." ”

Zhu Fatzi put his hand back on Li Tiantu's arm, and said disapprerovingly: "As long as the eldest brother can help me marry the ninth princess, the younger brother I will call the uncle Ducheng." ”

Li Tiantu shook his head again and sighed, no discipline! No discipline! Zhu Wenwu, the world-famous first genius in Jiangbei, is not only a big fat man who has no bookishness, but also has no discipline, but he is also full of economy, and there are countless well-known poems.

Zhu Fatzi said pitifully: "Big brother, will you go with me?" Thinking of facing the Ninth Princess alone, and sticking a hot face to other people's cold butts, the usually majestic Zhu Fat Man felt a little cowardly.

Li Tiantu lazily pressed his back against the dark golden yellow rosewood chair, pinched the high-grade celadon tea bowl produced in Jinglong Guan Kiln in his right hand, and deeply sniffed the heart-warming tea fragrance of Wuyi Mountain's big red robe wafting out of the bowl, but a soft and blurry figure suddenly appeared in front of him, and said lightly: "You should know the rules of Xiaozhu in the middle of the lake, one person and one Cambodia, even if I can't." ”

Zhu Fatzi caught the faint sadness in the air, and he also knew that he was wrong. After all, it is extremely difficult to recover the lost love even if it is broken. So he completely swallowed the sentence "one day husband and wife hundred days" that he was about to blurt out and persuade Li Tiantu.

At this time, Li Tiantu seems to be indifferent, but he is also a sad person.

Zhu Fatzi had the urge to drink, and said angrily: "Big brother, how many altars does the 'Jade Spring' younger brother in the outer building still have, and we will rest as soon as we get drunk today?" ”

Li Tiantu's eyes lit up, his confidant, and said briskly: "Even if you have a little conscience, it is not in vain for me to visit Zhu's mansion on a snowy day." ”

The jasper gold bottle collected by Zhu Fatzi, coupled with the "jasper spring" in the outer building, has a unique taste.

Li Tiantu and Zhu Fatzi drank in the dark, and the ridiculous idea of "sleeping together" suddenly appeared in their minds at the moment when they lost their last consciousness.

Li Tiantu finally indulged last night.
