Chun Tao helped her girl get out of the carriage, knocked on the door, and shouted, "Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang." ”

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps in the door, and the door opened with a creak, and Mr. Fang came out wrapped in a thick cotton jacket, and when he saw them, he was surprised while opening his body to let them into the yard: "It's snowing heavily, why did you come here?" ”

Ji Yunyun walked to the eaves porch and dusted off the snowflakes on his body, and said eagerly: "Mr. Fang, there is some accident at home, and I will take the Jade Buddha away tomorrow, I don't know how the Jade Buddha is carved?" ”

"Tomorrow?" Mr. Fang frowned, and went into the house to show her the jade Buddha that was about to be completed, "It's still a little short, I originally expected it to be carved in a few days, but tomorrow is too urgent, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

Chun Tao asked a little anxiously when she heard this: "Then what about the girl?" The second master will come back tomorrow, he will definitely go to the study, as soon as he goes to the study, he will find that the jade Buddha he spent a lot of money to carve is broken, we have been hiding it for so long, and it is almost the old lady's birthday banquet, not only the second master, I am afraid that even the old lady will be furious. ”

Mr. Fang was a little happy when he heard it, it turned out that he had broken the jade Buddha of the elders in the family, and he was afraid of punishment, so he secretly carved an identical one from his family.

"When will your second master come back tomorrow? If you stay up late tonight, you might be able to carve it out before he returns. Mr. Fang reached out and touched the jade Buddha on the table, which was almost completed, and said.

Ji Yunyun's eyes lit up, and she bowed to him, "Then there is Mr. Lao." ”

Then she pondered for a moment and instructed Chun Tao: "You go back to the house immediately, tell the third young master, and ask him to send someone to wait at the gate of the mansion tomorrow, and once the second uncle comes back, let someone come and tell me immediately." Tell the third girl again, before I go back, let her drag the second uncle and not let him go to the study. ”

After a pause, she said again: "After going back, let Chunzhi come with you, we won't go back tonight, stay here with Mr. Fang for one night, and go back tomorrow after getting the Jade Buddha." ”

After speaking, she turned around and asked Mr. Fang, "Sir, can we borrow it here for one night?" ”

Mr. Fang waved his hand generously, "It's up to you, anyway, there are many houses, so you can live if you want to, but the conditions here are simple, and they can't compare to your own house." ”

"Thank you, sir." Ji Yunyun nodded gratefully at him.

Chun Tao asked suspiciously: "But girl, if you don't go back, how can you explain to the house?" If she finds out that the girl is not in the house for a night, the eldest lady will be in a hurry. ”

"Tell Mama Lin a few, if the eldest aunt asks, just say that I went to my uncle's house to stay overnight and come back tomorrow." Ji Yunyun said.

"Yes, girl." Chun Tao got the order, hurriedly went out and got into the carriage to go back to the Guogong Mansion.

After Chun Tao left, Mr. Fang carved the jade Buddha in the house, and Ji Yunyun went to the bookshelf next to him and pulled a book and sat by the window to read it. The heavy snow outside the window did not get smaller, although the charcoal was burning in the house, it was not as good as the charcoal in the Guogong Mansion, and there was a slight leakage in the window cracks, Ji Yunyun couldn't stand it after sitting for a while, and got up and walked around the house to move his body.

Mr. Fang saw it in his eyes and shook his head, these delicate women from rich and noble families really can't bear the slightest hardship.

Chun Tao and Harue came back after a while, and knowing that their girl was going to spend the night here, they brought all the bedding and toiletries from the house, and in order not to be discovered, they quietly moved them from the corner door of the backyard, so it took a little more time.

In Mr. Fang's courtyard, he himself lived in the first room in the east, the second room in the east was the room where he specialized in carving jade, and the two rooms in the west were empty.

Chun Tao and Harue moved the bedding and toiletries into the house, tidied up, and found that the house was cold and lacked charcoal for heating. There are a lot of ready-made charcoal in the kitchen, but those are not as good as those used in the Guogong Mansion, and I am afraid that they will not be warm for a night, and the girl will not be able to stay sick.

Chun Tao and Chun Zhi discussed it and decided to go to the nearest street in the county to buy some good charcoal and come back, but they didn't know where to sell it on the street, so they went to ask Mr. Fang.

"Sir, where can I find the best silver frost charcoal on the street?" Chunzhi pushed open Mr. Fang's door and asked softly.

"The finest Silver Frost Charcoal?" Mr. Fang held a carved knife in his hand and turned quickly on the Jade Buddha's body, and said without raising his head: "No one can afford to buy silver frost charcoal in a small place like Yunyang County, and there is no place to sell it on the street. ”

"Ah, what's not for sale?" Chunzhi was a little disappointed, looked at the sky outside, the goose feather snow has not stopped, the hour is not too early, if you go back to the capital, this comes and goes, I am afraid it will be dark.

"Still, I know there's one." Mr. Fang stopped the knife in his hand and blew off the jade crumbs on the jade Buddha, "There is a family surnamed Fu in the northwest, and he has a nephew who is also a rich man. ”

"Really? How should that family get there? Chunzhi was overjoyed when she heard this, since that family had it, she could go and buy some and come back to her girl.

Mr. Fang was about to speak, when a crisp girl's voice sounded in the courtyard, "Uncle Fang, you are a guest at home, I saw another carriage parked in front of your house." ”

Ji Yunyun was sitting in the house on the west side, when she heard the sound and opened the door, she saw that the little girl next door was the little girl who led her by in the courtyard. She wore a pink padded jacket, two pigtails, a plush hat on her head, and a jar of wine in her arms.

When she saw Ji Yunyun, her eyes lit up, and she said happily: "Sister fairy, it's you." ”

Seeing that her head and body were covered with snowflakes, Ji Yunyun beckoned her to come down to the eaves, stretched out her hand to clean the snowflakes on her body, and asked softly: "Last time she fell into the water, your sister didn't fall ill, right?" ”

"No, she was rescued in time, Uncle Fu's medical skills are good, and she is alive and kicking now." The little girl smiled, "My mother said that she didn't have time to thank Sister Fairy for sending my sister to Uncle Fu in a carriage." ”

"It's just a small thing." Ji Yunyun smiled at her, looked at the wine in her arms and asked, "Are you here to deliver wine to Mr. Fang?" ”

"Hmm." The little girl nodded, and saw Mr. Fang come out of the east room, took the wine in the little girl's arms, opened it, took a deep sip of the wine, and said with a smile: "Not bad, yes, there is hope for staying up late tonight." ”

After speaking, he raised his head and drank a big sip of wine, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and said to Ji Yunyun: "Your maid wants to buy silver frost charcoal, the one that was sent by Nan Nan in the water last time, you have also been there, do you remember the road?" ”

“…… I don't remember. Ji Yunyun and Chun Tao glanced at each other, both of them looked embarrassed, who was in a hurry last time when they sent Nan Nan over?

"Sister fairy, you are going to Uncle Fu's house, I can lead the way." The little girl looked up at them and volunteered.

"Then I'm bothering you." Ji Yunyun reached out and touched her head, and motioned for Chun Tao and Chun Zhi to go with the little girl.

In a house in the west, there was also a carriage parked at the door, the goose feathers and snow outside, the house was as warm as spring, Feng Ji stood aside, Qi Cheng and Mr. Fu sat opposite each other, each holding a game on the chessboard.

Looking at the situation on the chessboard, he had been blocked from the last way out, Qi Cheng threw down the chess pieces in his hand, raised his eyebrows and said, "I lost again, sir." ”

Mr. Fu also put down the chess pieces, took a sip of the hot tea next to him, and said with a smile: "Don't be discouraged, your chess skills have improved a lot, and in time, maybe you can win a game against me." ”

Qi Cheng shook his head and sighed, "Mr. is thoughtful, one step can think of the next three steps, I'm afraid I won't be able to win Mr. in this life." ”

Mr. Fu smiled silently, scraped the teacup and asked, "What are your plans for the marriage with that Sun Yingying?" I heard that the Sun family couldn't hold it back, and they were ready to ask the emperor for marriage. ”

At the mention of this, Qi Cheng's originally bright face sank, and he pursed his lips tightly and did not make a sound.

Mr. Fu put down the teacup and looked at him thoughtfully, "If it was before, you would definitely go to the Sun family to propose marriage before the emperor gave you marriage, but now you are hesitant, but you have met the person you really like?" ”

He paused, remembered the beautiful girl who came with him last time when he fell into the water, and asked, "The girl who came with you last time was a young lady from the capital?" ”

Qi Cheng lowered his eyes and didn't answer him, got up with a stiff face and said, "It's not early, I'll go back." ”

He was just about to go outside the house when there was a knock at the door of the courtyard and the cry of the little girl, "Uncle Fu, Uncle Fu." ”

Mr. Fu motioned for him and Feng Ji to stay in the house, put on a thick coat, and went out to open the door in the heavy snow.

"Uncle Fu, there are guests at your house too." The door opened, and the little girl looked at the carriage at the door and said.

"My nephew is here." Mr. Fu saw that she was followed by two maids wearing gold and silver holding umbrellas, one of whom was very familiar, it was the maid next to the beautiful girl who was sent over together last time, raised his eyebrows and asked, "...... did you bring these two girls over?"

Chun Tao stepped forward and said with a smile: "Mr. Fu, we heard from Mr. Fang that you have silver frost charcoal here, so we want to buy some." ”

Mr. Fu looked at them strangely, "There are so many in the capital, why do you come to me to buy them?" ”

Chunzhi said: "Our girl has something to stay at Mr. Fang's place for one night, and I heard that there is no silver frost charcoal for sale in the whole county, only Mr. is here, so I came." Sir, can you sell some to us, not much, just enough for one night. ”

Mr. Fu touched his chin, thought about it, opened the door and let them into the courtyard, "Come in, the silver frost charcoal is piled up in the westernmost room, you need to get it yourself." ”

"Thank you, sir." Chun Tao and Chun Zhi thanked each other repeatedly.

Summoned the coachman to come in, went to the house on the west side and moved some silver frost charcoal to the carriage, estimated that it was enough for the night, Chun Tao took out a piece of silver from the purse on his waist and handed it to Mr. Fu, "Sir, this is the money to buy charcoal, please accept it." ”

Mr. Fu took it casually, sent them out of the door and went back to the house, and threw the silver to Qi Cheng, "Well, the money to buy your silver frost charcoal happens to be the girl who came with you last time." Everyone outside is gone, and you can go too. ”

Qi Cheng returned to the chair and sat down, took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "Don't worry, the snow hasn't stopped, the road is not easy to walk, I'll stay here for one night and leave tomorrow." ”

Mr. Fu couldn't help laughing, and didn't reveal his true thoughts, sat down opposite him, put the chess pieces back into their respective chess jars, and raised his eyebrows: "Then another game?" ”

Qi Cheng picked up a white chess piece and landed on the chessboard.
