Zhijing shook the fan and was complaining, "It's August, why is it still hot like this?!" The way of heaven has changed, and people's hearts are not ancient! ”

Mr. Lin took the folding fan, looked at Li Xiaoqi who opened the curtain and entered, and said with a gentle smile: "Xiaoqi's complexion is much better than last time, and his body is better?" ”

"Mr. Schelling, it's much better." Li Xiaoqi said, put the two plates of dates in the tray on the table, and pushed them in front of the two, Zhijing looked at the plate pushed in front of him, and praised in surprise: "I haven't seen you for a few days, Xiaoyi's dates have won a big victory in the past, this plate is well matched, such a silk winding Ru kiln dish with this red date, very elegant!" ”

Mr. Lin also nodded in appreciation, and Li Xiaoqi smiled so that his eyes were crooked, "Thank you two gentlemen for complimenting, I also think it's good." ”

Zhijing laughed out loud and pointed at Li Xiaoqi with a pu fan, "I just like her temperament, straightforward and interesting, how many dates are there today?" Take them all, let this guy buy them, you sit down, let's drink tea and talk together. ”

Li Xiaoqi looked regretful, "It's all sold out, so I kept these two plates to honor the two gentlemen, it's a pity, I knew that I would have taken a few more catties, wouldn't I have sold tomorrow's ones?!" ”

"If you are willing, you can sell me all the next year." Mr. Lin raised his eyebrows lightly, and said with a smile, Li Xiaoqi sat down with a smile,

"Let's talk about it, I don't dare, who doesn't know that Mr. is a master outside the party, and he never wants to get involved in the smell of copper, if I take advantage of Mr., first, I feel uneasy, and second, this is not the same as lying to Mr.? Those scholars or something, one person and one spittle, all have to drown me! ”

Zhijing looked at Mr. Lin with a smile, Li Xiaoqi Gu picked up the cup in front of him, and tasted the tea with a face full of enjoyment, Mr. Lin slowly shook the folding fan, looked at Li Xiaoqi and asked, "Xiaoqi, when are you going to sell this date?" Do you have any plans for the future? ”

"Yes!" Li Xiaoqi put down the cup, nodded, and said seriously: "Selling dates here is not a long-term way, and I won't sell them after a while, I have already saved a few taels of silver, and if I save more, I will work with my brother to open a fruit shop, specializing in selling ejiao dates, and then do other businesses." ”

"If you want to open the fruit, I will give you the capital, and you have to save it for a half or two." Mr. Lin frowned slightly and said, Li Xiaoqi looked at him, and shook his head solemnly: "I know that Mr. has good intentions, but I want to do business by myself, if I use Mr.'s capital, I will become Mr.'s steward, if Mr. lends me money, Mr. Such a great favor, how can I repay it in the future?" The difference between Mr. and me is that in the next life, in the next life, Mr. will not have anything for me to repay, and I don't want to owe it for a great favor that cannot be reciprocated. ”

Mr. Lin let out a long sigh, leaned back in the chair, and pointed at Xiao Qi and Zhijing with a fan and said, "Look at it, your temper is quite stubborn." ”

"She's a very smart person, because intelligence is rare." Zhijing shook the pu fan and said, Mr. Lin squinted his eyes slightly, nodded with a smile, Li Xiaoqi lowered his head and concentrated on drinking tea, the first time he saw her, he wanted to buy her back, that look, this thought, this kind of untakable advantage, she had seen a lot in her last life, she was smart!

Li Xiaoqi drank tea, and accompanied the two of them to gossip for a while, and when he saw Da Liu coming in with the dishes, he hurriedly stood up and helped set the dishes, took half a step back, and said with a smile: "The two gentlemen use it slowly, this bowl Buddha jumped over the wall, I heard that the gentleman asked for it, yesterday the bell head did not let others hold hands, one person burned it, just waiting for the two gentlemen to say a 'good' word, the bell head does not know how happy." ”

Mr. Lin motioned to the middle-aged and elderly entourage standing at the door: "Take the jujube money and leave, you can't eat your things for nothing." ”

"These two plates of jujubes are the filial piety of Xiao Mi, thank you Mr. Zhijing for taking care of them."

Mr. Lin's eyebrows moved, Zhijing glanced at him, turned his head to look at Li Xiaoyi, and said with a cheerful smile: "It's a good boy, Mr. doesn't eat your dates in vain, the day after tomorrow, Princess Funing got married, it's a very lively thing, Mr. Lin and I booked a seat in Yicheng Building to see the excitement, you also come over, let's watch the biggest lively event in the world." ”

Li Xiaoyi's eyes lit up, Su Zicheng, the second son of the emperor of Beiping, is going to marry Princess Funing, this is the biggest gossip topic in Taiping Mansion in the past six months, in the alleys, turn out all kinds of pieces of the princess who married in the past, imagine the grand occasion of Princess Funing's marriage, this Princess Funing is from Wu Guifei, the most favored by the emperor, and married Su Zicheng, the second son of the emperor of Beiping, this Su Zicheng and Funing are the same age, the legend is that the gods are handsome, civil and military all-rounders, in short, there is no bad place, the door is right, I don't know how luxurious and lively it is, a serious once-in-a-century encounter, she had already been salivating and thinking about it, Li Xiaoqi nodded excitedly and agreed, and withdrew from the private room with a smile on her face.

Zhijing watched Li Xiaoqi go out, picked up chopsticks and picked a piece of beef tendon from the bowl to eat, nodded with satisfaction, turned his head to look at Mr. Lin, who was a little sullen, and persuaded: "Don't worry, this girl is smart and transparent, and she is extraordinary, so she naturally needs to put more thought into it." ”

"Well," Mr. Lin took two spoonfuls of soup and drank it slowly, sighed, turned his head to look at Zhijing, and said a little sadly: "This Su Zicheng married Funing with such fanfare, no matter how I think it's wrong, you see, the front is General Yuan, this time it is Song Gongsheng, they are all the good generals of Wu State, who is next?" General Zhang? Or General Wen? Is there no clear-eyed person in the court? The two brothers in Beiping are ambitious! ”

Zhijing gestured to the long entourage standing at the door, and Mr. Lin waved his hand in annoyance, "This is not something that cannot be said, I also told my uncle about it the day before yesterday, alas, the hand in this palace stretched out to stir up the court situation, it is not a good omen!" ”

"Whether it's a blessing or a curse, the way of heaven has long been doomed, and your state of mind is much worse."

"Forget it, don't mention this trouble, if this girl is willing, I will take her back to her former residence, and never come out again, with this broken face and interpretation of the flowers, how much free!"

Zhi Jing looked at him silently, and concentrated on eating the bowl Buddha jumping over the wall. The two didn't eat for long, and then they came out of the private room, Mr. Lin beckoned to the shopkeeper Zheng, and ordered with a cold face: "If there is any idea that is not long-sighted and dares to hit the little one, let someone tell me immediately." ”

Shopkeeper Zheng was stunned, and was about to bow down to agree, Mr. Lin continued: "Go to my house and tell the concierge that Changfeng Building has something to report." ”

Shopkeeper Zheng hurriedly smiled and agreed, "Master Lin, don't worry, there were a few a while ago, and the little ones said Master Zhijing's words, and they were all blocked." ”

"Hmm." Mr. Lin shook the folding fan and went out to get on the horse, and the shopkeeper Zheng watched the group go away, so he straightened up and wiped his sweat.

After dinner in the evening, Li Xiaoqi pulled the three of them, to go to the nearest state Xiwazi to see the miscellaneous class, Li Erhuai strongly agreed, went out with the younger sister, has always had a good meal, the four people closed the door and went out, turned a few alleys, entered the state Xiwazi, and looked out of the miscellaneous class, Li Xiaoqi was bored and accompanied the three of them to watch sumo wrestling for a long time, and then went to the night market, ate roasted badger meat, enema, fried clams, and one person bought a Japanese vegetable cake, Li Xiaoqi had long been unable to eat, took a bite, and gave the cake to Erhuai, Erhuai did not refuse, He never seemed to know how to hold up.

Playing until the end of the unitary, Li Xiaoqi bought a bag of lion candy for Erhuai to carry, she bought it last time and was flattered by Wen Niangzi, and this time she had to buy it again to make up for it. The group saw that the time was about the same, so they simply turned to Changfeng Building, picked up Li Zonggui, and then went back to the miscellaneous courtyard together.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw Liu Er squatting at the door, holding a pot in one hand and a cup in the other, pouring himself a drink by the light in the house, scolding while drinking, and drinking for a while, his tongue was a little hard: "•••••• that man, he doesn't pee and look in the mirror, he wants to beat my daughter's idea!" Bah! There is not even a room, let our family drink the northwest wind with you? Bah! What •••••• die this heart sooner, and you deserve it?! A stinky man! A big buck no! ••••••”

Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng pushed Li Erhuai and Li Zonggui, who were full of interest to see the excitement: "Go into the house!" ”

Li Xiaoqi was dragged into the house by Wei Shuisheng, and turned his head to look around, trying to find out who was the one who was going to look in the mirror.

A few people entered the house, Li Erhuai put down the sugar, and was busy boiling the water, the younger sister had to take a bath every day, and everyone had to wash, at least they had to wash their feet, but they had to boil a lot of hot water.

Li Xiaoqi stood in the room and turned around for half a circle, stretched out his hand to untie the lion candy, and took it out: "Big brother, I'll send some candy to Grandma Shen." ”

"It's getting late, Grandma Shen should go to sleep, let's send it tomorrow."

"When I first came in, I saw the lights on in Grandma Shen's house, and besides, I still want to see if the purse with a mezzanine is ready, and I am in a hurry to use it."

Wei Shuisheng looked at Li Xiaoqi with a clear face, and Li Zongliang glanced at Li Xiaoqi helplessly and ordered: "Go and come back quickly, don't inquire." ”

"Got it." Li Xiaoqi jumped next door with the candy in his hand, and called 'Grandma Shen' against the crack of the door, and Mrs. Shen hurriedly opened the door and let Li Xiaoqi come in. Li Xiaoqi put the candy on the table and said with a smile: "Grandma, my eldest brother bought me candy today, let's eat it together." ”

Mrs. Shen smiled with a smile on her face, "Since our sister moved in, my old wife will have a good mouth!" ”

Li Xiaoqi smiled and said a few words of gossip to Mrs. Shen, listened to Liu Er's drunken scolding outside, and curiously pointed outside and asked, "Grandma, this Second Uncle Liu scolded Mrs. Liu again?" It's time for Mrs. Liu to cry in the house again. ”

"It's not Liu Niangzi who is scolding this time."
