The chief steward stared at Song Haonian, the muscles on his face twitched, and in the eyes of the little steward, it was a complex look of surprise, respect, fear and disbelief.

The little steward was accustomed to the immovable appearance of the big steward, and thought: That person is not ugly, on the contrary, he has a dignified and good appearance, how can the chief steward show this expression?

No, this manor has a deep background, so there is no need to be afraid of the horseman, and the chief steward does not have to be like this

Just as he was thinking wildly, he saw the chief steward arching his hand and asked respectfully: "This old man looks at the kindness of his face, which makes me have the heart to make friends, and dare to ask where is the fairy town?"

Song Haonian and the others saw the carriage of the chief steward coming, and they wanted to avoid it, so as not to collide with the nobles, and they didn't want the nobles to come straight at them, so they were humble and polite, so that people couldn't make mistakes at all.

People are polite, they can't be rude, and hurriedly returned the salute and said: "Our brothers are from Taiping County, and they came to the house for the rose seedlings, and now the delivery is clear, and they are about to escort the flower seedlings home." ”

"Brother?" The chief steward was a little disappointed, his eyes circled around Liu Yi, Liu Ping'an and others, and his brows soothed a little, "Isn't it a brother?"

"You have good eyesight, we are in a town, and we have formed righteous brothers, in order to help each other, and we are not worse than brothers. Liu Yi smiled and said, "My brother's surname is Song, and my surname is Liu." ”

Now Song Haonian feels that something is not quite right no matter how dull he is, not to mention that he is not dull. Looking back on the past, when Chen Bin's uncle Master Wang saw him, he almost had the same expression, but he was a little more surprised.

He is a country man, he never knows any nobles, and he doesn't have any strange skills that people can see at a glance.

Song Haonian couldn't help but say: "This old man stopped me because I looked like whom?"

The chief steward said with a smile: "The little surname is Lu, seeing that Master Song looks a little like an old friend of mine, I can't help but feel a little close, I don't know if you have time, we have time to talk." ”

Song Haonian was full of coaxing, and said in a muffled voice: "I'm in a hurry to go home, let's talk about it later." ”

Liu Yi played a round on the side: "After going out for a few days, the family is very concerned, and since the two families have done business, they can come and go often, and there are still many days to go back and forth in the future." I saw that Master Lu had just come back from outside, and he was tired of thinking about it, so our brother wouldn't bother you. ”

The chief steward stayed for a while, and in the end, he was really reluctant to see Song Haonian, so he had to repeatedly tell him to come often in the future, and called a few capable family members to help escort the carts of flower seedlings, and watched them go far before entering the door.

As soon as he entered the door, Steward Lu changed his face, invited him to be close to his henchmen, and said like this, and said: "This surname Song's appearance is really shocking, you go to check it, whether it is a coincidence, or someone with a heart sent it to the door for me to see." ”

He chuckled again: "It's just a coincidence, if it's a trap sent by someone else, beware of breaking his teeth!" He didn't say the last possibility: if it is neither a coincidence nor someone else's trap, then this person is a fortune!

Steward Lu is in charge of this rose manor, and there is no shortage of power and wealth, but everyone wants to go to the next level, and the ready-made opportunity is here, how can he be allowed to slip away?

Coming out of the manor and walking away, Song Haonian was only in a daze, Liu Yi patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "We usually say that you look like a nobleman, isn't it true that you look like a nobleman?"

Saying these words on weekdays, Song Haonian always smiled and said, "Where will the noble person be like us", but today I feel that my heart sinks, I don't know what's wrong, I just feel that things around me are not quite right. Liu Yi observed his words and looks, and found that his expression was solemn, not as relaxed as before, knowing that this brother was puzzled, in fact, several of them were also suspicious, so they didn't dare to joke about this matter anymore, and only said: "It's inconvenient to go to the provincial capital after buying flower seedlings, or it's convenient to go home directly, I thought."

You go home first, and I'll go to the provincial capital to join them. ”

After a long while, Song Haonian woke up, nodded and said, "In order to accompany me to find these flower seedlings, you haven't done a lot of things yet, so you should go to the provincial capital." Now that I have enough of these people here, you can go with confidence. ”

So on the second day, Liu Yi turned around and went to the provincial capital, and Song Haonian and Liu Ping'an, together with the family in the manor, escorted the rose seedlings all the way back to Qingliu Town. To return to the town, it is necessary to pass through Taiping County, Song Haonian is full of puzzlement, and wants to inquire from Chen Bin If Shan Wang Jin and Chen Bin hit him off at first sight, thinking of life-saving grace and courtesy, it is just an ordinary thing. But the style of the Lu steward made him suspicious, and he didn't necessarily have to spend the whole day

Everyone thinks that he was born well, so he is very good to him, right?

When he arrived in the county seat, it was already evening, Song Haonian looked for a familiar foot shop, arranged for the family to stay, and went to Wang Xiaofu to say hello first, and then went to find Chen Bin.

Chen Bin happened to be at home these two days, and when he saw Song Haonian dressed as a long away, he said with a smile: "Brother Danian, are you going out?"

Song Haonian hurriedly said that he had just come back from outside, and the two of them gossiped a few words, Song Haonian really didn't know how to speak, he didn't have any city government, he was entangled in his heart, and his face brought out a few points.

Chen Bin said: "What kind of difficulty have you encountered? Our brother should not see outside, if you have something, let me know, I can help, even if I can't help, I can think of a way for you, and even if it is not good, I can relieve your boredom." ”

His words are reasonable and very intimate, Song Haonian is a stone-hearted person and has to ask him to warm up, not to mention that he is naturally warm-hearted.

Although he was already suspicious of Chen Bin, he thought: I don't have anything to make Brother Chen want, just what he wants from me, he is so rich, just buy it with gold and silver. Finally he said: "I went back to the provincial capital to buy rose seedlings and wanted to plant some flowers and add some income to my family, but I met a person on the way, not to say that I looked like his old acquaintance, and I was very enthusiastic. Brother Chen, I'm just a country man, I've never encountered this kind of thing, I really don't know

What to do. ”

Chen Bin's fat body suddenly stood up from the chair, the black clouds were overwhelming, his face was hideous, and he scolded secretly in his stomach: I don't know which fool is in danger of Lao Tzu's good deeds!

He quickly reacted and reassured Song Haonian: "There are often things in this world that look like someone, so you don't have to panic." ”

"Really?" Song Haonian stared at Chen Bin fixedly, as if he wanted to see him through, "If it's really like someone else's old acquaintance, I'm just afraid that I will be like someone's enemy and get into trouble for nothing." ”

Chen Bin showed him a little flustered, but fortunately, he had seen a lot, and forced himself to calm down: "It's okay, if it's such a troublesome thing for no reason, I'll take it for you." ”

Song Haonian said about the Rose Manor sending someone to escort him, "People live in the foot shop now, and I will go home tomorrow, I don't know what they want to do, I really don't know what I want to do, I really don't know the bottom of my heart." ”

There is still a little room for manoeuvre in the county, if you bring people to your home, it will expose all your family wealth in front of people, and if the Lu steward really wants to make a ghost in the future, he will have nowhere to hide.

So I'd rather spend a little more money and leave people in the city for a day to allow time to react.

Chen Bin nodded and said, "You think about it thoughtfully, it's not good to bring people home directly." In this way, I will send someone to inquire, don't panic, come all the way to have a meal first, and I will give you news before dark. ”

Although Chen Bin's attitude is also a little problematic, he is an acquaintance, and he has a silk shop in the city, which is not like the rose manor, which is really mysterious and strange.

Compared with the two sides, Song Haonian would rather believe in Chen Bin.

Here Chen Bin entertained Song Haonian for dinner, and specially asked Xue Niang to cook a few of her best dishes, and the people he had to use had already sneaked into the foot shop, looking for someone who came to help Song Haonian escort the flower seedlings, and used the excuse to start a conflict, and the two groups of people used confidential talks to test each other's identities.

Before dark, his subordinates returned to Chen's house and reported the conversation to Chen Bin, "Everyone else over there only thinks that they are serious businessmen, and only the one who leads has some background." ”

As soon as his subordinates told them where they were coming, Chen Bin changed color and said, "It's difficult to do now!"

They never avoided Xue Niang these words, Xue Niang heard it clearly, and said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this? Cars have roads, horses have roads, when do things make people ride? Even if they come to the road, they have to talk about the first come, first come, first come, and grab credit with us, blind their dogs!"

The reason is so, but the origin of the box is really not "The master's surname is Zhu, and the steward's surname is Lu, you have to remember that the side concubine in the East Palace is surnamed Lu." "When it comes to the East Palace, small things have to become big things, not to mention that what they are doing is not a small matter. If it is something else, with the efficiency of Jinyiwei, there are thirty or fifty things that can be clearly investigated, but this one must be carefully inspected and clear, and the character of that person must be investigated

The matter can't alarm people, so I have to spend three or five years in this small county town and slowly investigate it.

They had done a lot of things in the early stage, and at this time, the people of the East Palace intervened to grab the credit, they refused to agree anyway, the two of them pondered for a long time, and invited the shopkeeper Liu to tell them so and so.

Shopkeeper Liu also refused to ask someone to rob him of the credit, saying: "According to me, it is a trick to cover up this matter." ”

Chen Bin's eyes lit up: "Exactly!"

The three of them discussed, and left Song Haonian to live that night, and asked Chen Bin's henchmen to return to Qingliu Town with Song Haonian on the second day. The henchman had already known Song Haonian for a long time, and he had met with the people in Rose Manor, and the two sides knew each other.

After transporting the rose seedlings home, Lily was very surprised, and then the henchman of the Lu steward returned to the manor and said to the Lu steward: "The person who is only afraid of Jinyiwei is probably seeing that there is something wrong with our manor, and he has come to find out the rumors." ”

Steward Lu let out a sigh of relief, and said hatefully: "These damn brocade guards, if you want to probe, what do you want to do with such a person!" God knows that when he saw that face, he was almost scared to death!
