"Actually, your students are also quite good, Brother Chen, don't be so ...... It's all your fault. Chen Fangguo said

"Maybe that's right, in the eyes of people, he's actually very successful. Chen Jiageng sighed again and said.

"Big brother, I actually understand you very well. In the minds of those of you who read, read the books of the sages and do the things of the world. If you want to do the world's business, don't do those things that put the cart before the horse. In your eyes, this business is actually the last ......."

"Brother Chen, it seems that you really understand me very well...... But after all, he's just my student, and I can't really care so much about what he does. ”

"As the saying goes, three hundred and sixty lines, the line is the champion...... Your students are okay, quite good. Ji Ruohua said.

"There's another reason why I feel so uncomfortable. ”

"Is there any reason that can't be said, we are all so familiar with it, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it. If you keep these words in your heart and don't spit them out, it will be very uncomfortable. Chen Xuan said with a smile.

"All right, but promise me that you don't tell anyone about it. Chen Jiageng seemed to have made a final decision, and continued to say: "This child has no mother, it's a long story. The reason why he is what he is today actually has a lot to do with the Yihong Courtyard back then. ”

"Does it have anything to do with the Yihong Courtyard back then?!" Chen Fangguo asked with some curiosity.

He thought to himself, could it be that this boss and some beautiful woman in Yihong Courtyard, what is the inexplicable relationship between the two people.

"Yes, I'm a student with a good character and a good character, but I just can't resist the temptation. At that time, Yihong Courtyard had not yet been closed, and there were many prostitutes here, and many of the people who came and went were tempted by them, including me, a student......"

"I think it's the same way, your students may have become bad after entering Yihong Courtyard after they came out......"

"It's not that the person who comes out becomes bad, it's that he goes in once, and then after he comes out, the whole person has changed. Lots of ideas, not quite as ...... as before"

"What did he think before?!" Chen Xuan asked.

"His previous idea was very big, and the Qi family ruled the country and leveled the world......"

"I think each of us has such a dream. But in the end, how many people can really realize this kind of dream?! Not to mention governing the country and leveling the world, even if it is the Qi family, it is a very difficult thing......"

Chen Xuan remembered his Yimen Chen family, which had now become divided after being forced to split up because of the traitors of the imperial court.

I am actually in a state of wandering, and this state of having a home and not being able to return is indeed too painful.

However, fortunately, he met so many good brothers along the way, and he was able to persistently survive.

"He did get along with one of the prostitutes inside, after a while. He graduated from Xunyang Academy, and I originally thought that he was going to enter Beijing to take the exam, but the prostitute raised some money for him, so he bought a building here, and then opened a restaurant......"

"Actually, Brother Chen, your requirements for your students are a bit harsh, this dressing and eating is human nature, why can't you open a restaurant. ”

"That's right, this makes everyone have their own ambitions, he doesn't want to be an official, why do you have to force him to be an official?!"

Chen Jiageng shook his head and said, "You'll know in a while......"

"What do you know, Brother Chen?!You seem to have something unspeakable......

"I mean, you'll find out in a moment, and what I'm saying now is for nothing. ”

Just when a few of them were standing at the door of Deyue Building and chatting enthusiastically, at this time, a young woman dressed up at the door came out, walked up to Chen Jiageng, said a thousand blessings to him, and said, "You are Mr. Chen Jiageng of Xunyang Academy?!"

"Exactly, who are you?!" Chen Jiageng's eyes lit up and asked in some surprise.

"The little woman belongs to the owner of this restaurant...... Wife, known as Thirteen Niang......"

"Oh, it turns out that you are Thirteen Niang, your wedding wine was actually missed by me, it is really my fault, next time I will compensate you well. Tan Kah Kee said.

"Hey, Mr. Chen, I can't afford to say that. It's not the first time my husband has been married, and there are thirteen wives in front of me......"

"Thirteen wives?!Then how do you call them thirteen mothers?!" Chen Jiageng asked with some curiosity.

"Mr. Chen didn't know that the little girl's name was Thirteen Niang. Before the little girl got married, her family was in business, and she was in the rice wine business in Shendu...... Later, because my family was in the middle of the road, I ended up in this small town, and thanks to my husband taking me in, I didn't have to live on the streets......"

Hearing her say this, Chen Xuan's heart suddenly warmed, thinking that this Wang Cai, although he has begged so many wives, his heart is not too bad.

Besides, for a woman like her who lives on the streets, it is actually quite good to have a place to go.

It's nothing to be someone's little wife, but there are more things to pay attention to than ordinary people, that is, don't mess with the big wife.

It doesn't matter if the other wives are usually jealous and quarrelsome, the only husband may find it funny and won't really take them as such.

"Who are these?!"

"These are the friends I brought tonight, they are all distinguished guests from afar, I specially brought them here to have a good taste of the delicacies of Xunyang City......

"That's really welcome, you guys are in the right place, in our Deyue Restaurant, all kinds of dishes in it are the most complete here, the price, maybe a little more expensive." But since it is a guest of Mr. Chen's from afar...... We're not going to take money today. ”

"This can't work, what should be given must be given to ......"

As soon as he heard that he would not collect money, Chen Xuan suddenly became anxious, because he needed to find a place to spend some change to find the 10,000 taels of silver ticket in his hand.

Tonight, I still need to check the authenticity of this silver ticket, in case it is a fake silver ticket, then he will return to Wangjia Village and clean up that Yuwen Li'er fiercely.

Yuwen Li'er must have wanted to die now, if it weren't for him Chen Xuan to use a little trick, I'm afraid it would be his brothers who are locked up now.

It seems that sometimes it is really a man who can't live because of his wickedness, and this man who does a lot of evil and likes to be smart can't starve him to death at the moment, and needs to bring him a little food regularly.

When the Ji Ruohua sisters return to Shendu and discuss the next countermeasures with their father, let their evil family take it in one fell swoop, which is of course a later story.

"This little brother is ......" Seeing Chen Xuan so generous, Thirteen Niang couldn't help but look him up and down and asked.

"This is my brother from my hometown, named Chen Xuan...... It is the next heir of our Yimen Chen family. Chen Jiageng glanced at Chen Xuan and hurriedly introduced.

"The next heir, no wonder he speaks differently...... Thirteen Niang's face suddenly bloomed into a flower, and she hurriedly complimented.

Chen Xuan couldn't hold back in his heart, he wanted to laugh very much.

I thought that the female boss in front of me, where to praise him for being different, in fact, I didn't hope that he would be able to pay.

Because there is really no free dinner in the world, even if it is a former benefactor.

Under the guidance of Thirteen Niang, Chen Jiageng and Chen Xuan and their entourage soon came to the tea house on the third floor.

After settling them down, Thirteen Niang said goodbye to them for a while, and then went to receive other guests.

The place where Chen Jiageng and the others are is a fully enclosed seat set up by Wang Cai for the guests he is particularly familiar with, which can accommodate twenty or thirty people from the tabletop, and eat, drink and have fun here at the same time.

Not far away, there is also a small stage where guests can eat and drink while admiring.

"Where's your boss?!"

After waiting for a long time, but not seeing Wang Cai come up, Chen Jiageng's face was a little unbearable, so he asked Xiao Er who was standing next to them.

As soon as the little er saw Chen Jiageng, he quickly nodded and said, "Mr. Chen, I'm really embarrassed, our boss has recently gone back to his hometown." ”

"Really, didn't he just come back from his hometown?!" Chen Jiageng felt a little strange and asked Xiao Erdao again.

"Mr. Chen, I'm afraid you don't know that our boss's old mother seems to have been seriously ill recently...... It looks like it won't survive this year. ”

Hearing him say this, Chen Jiageng was taken aback and asked, "How old is your boss's mother this year?!"

Xiao Er thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "This little one is really not clear, why don't you wait for our boss lady to come over later, you can talk to him?!"

"Well, in that case, then we can order......"

"Mr. Chen, what do you mean?!"

"Why don't you understand what I'm saying? I mean we can order......

"It's not like this, our boss lady told us that he will take care of your meals, and you don't need ......to pay for it yourself," Xiao Er said earnestly.

"Then what's the matter, I just told your boss lady that tonight's food, wine and tea will be ...... by myself" Chen Xuan was also a little anxious, so he hurriedly said.

"This little brother, my female boss did tell me so, don't embarrass me anymore, okay?!" Xiao Er said with a sad face.

"This ......"

"Then please let everyone change with the host, since our boss must invite everyone, and I also know that Mr. Chen and our boss are good friends, then don't be polite. By the way, let me introduce you to our new arrivals today...... A very good-looking courtesan...... She sings very well, you can wait a while, if you have fun, you can reward her for a few ......" Xiao Er said with a smile on his face.

"And this kind of show?!" Chen Xuan asked puzzled.

"That's right, this is a regular program in our restaurant, if you are really embarrassed, our boss invites you to eat and drink for nothing...... Wait a minute, this courtesan will come and sing you a few songs, and then reward her a little, but it doesn't hurt......"

"Hey, are you kid not beaten, what do you mean to eat and drink for nothing?!" Chen Zhong stood up from the table abruptly, pointed at Xiao Er's nose and scolded.

"This brother, I can't speak, I don't have much knowledge, you must not be surprised. ”

"Look weird, look weird...... Why don't you get out of here?!" Chen Zhong continued to scold angrily.

"Okay, the little ones are going to get out right away. ”

After Xiao Er nodded and bowed, he hurriedly retreated.

I saw a black shadow flash at the door, and it disappeared immediately.

Everyone didn't notice this black shadow, but it was seen by Chen Fangguo.

He originally wanted to report it to Chen Xuan and Chen Jiageng, but after all, this place was a newcomer, and he wanted to wait for a while to find out the situation, and then tell them when he had the opportunity, it would not be too late.

"I said you second goods, did you eat explosives tonight?!If you look like this next time, I'm afraid no one will dare to take you out at that time......," Chen Fangguo said to Chen Zhong.

"I said who are you scolding for being a second goods?!You are scolding yourself, just now our brother Chen repeatedly reminded you, look at you are as stupid as a pig, you have been doing it for a long time, and you still haven't understood what people mean. I'm really a little skeptical about what kind of auction house you opened, and with your mind, I'm afraid that it won't be open for a few days, and you'll be closed......"

"I said a word or two about you, are you going to curse me to death?!"

"How dare I, I just said that you have such a little ability, stupid to death. It will definitely not be long before leaving the auction house, so let's ride a donkey and see. ”

"You...... I'm really angry......" Chen Fangguo slapped the table lightly, and immediately said with an unhappy heart.

"Also, the real purpose of your auction house, don't think I don't know, don't you just want to seduce those beautiful girls in the Xunyang Martial Arts Academy. ”

"You're a fart, believe it or not, I'm going to beat you up right now, beat you like a pig's head, and you're going to seduce those pretty girls tomorrow during the day." ”

After Chen Fangguo finished speaking, he stood up suddenly, then walked to Chen Zhong's side, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to start, but was immediately separated by Chen Xuan and Chen Jiageng.

"Why did the two of you just get so good and fight while talking?!It seems that separating you is the right decision...... Chen Xuan said.

"I think you can't slap in the face, everyone can't speak well, since you don't speak well, you all have to endure each other. This is far away from their hometown, everyone is also their own people, why should they not get along with their own people?!" Chen Jiageng also persuaded.

"I said this Brother Chen, you have to give the master's family a little face, if you don't give him face, you have to give me a little face. The so-called don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, this face of my Ji Ruohua, you should always look at it......"

Ji Ruohua's implication is that if this Chen Fangguo really doesn't give her face, then she will definitely reconsider her full investment in Chen Fangguo's auction house.

With this kind of stake, Chen Fangguo quickly understood what Ji Ruohua meant, he hurriedly turned around, sat in his seat again, arched his hand to the people present and said, "County Lord, Brother Chen, Young Master...... I was a little rude just now, so please don't be like me. In addition, please also persuade me, an uncompetitive brother, not to say that I am a second person or a fool as soon as I speak...... Besides, if I'm really a second or an idiot, will he have face?!"

"You ......"

Chen Zhong was so angry that he wanted to scold, but when he saw Chen Xuan's straight eyes, he had to endure his anger.

"Okay, everyone is as good as ever, don't raise the bar between each other. After serving the food and wine for a while, let's have a good drink......"

At this time, the shopkeeper who had been scolded just now walked in again, and said to Chen Xuan and the others: "Everyone, I will call all the courtesans in our restaurant and town building over now, and then you can choose your favorite." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a group of young and beautiful women dressed in flowers, holding flowers in their hands and carrying pipas, and walked in one by one.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan and the others' eyes couldn't help but light up.

Although Chen Xuan is only fifteen or sixteen years old this year, in the era in which he lives, he has already married at the age of fifteen or sixteen.

In other words, according to the laws of the Great Chu Empire, a man can marry at the age of fourteen, while a woman can marry at about the same age.

Compared with the surrounding countries, the age of marriage in the Great Chu Empire is already relatively late, and one of the main reasons is that the Great Chu Empire is slightly more stable than the surrounding countries.

And some neighboring countries are in turmoil and lack of soldiers.

Therefore, in terms of the creation of human society itself, the conditions given are also slightly loosened.

That is to say, young men and women in their country are allowed to marry and have children in advance, and when they grow up, whether they are civil or martial artists, they can serve the country.

"Hello ...... officials"

After those beautiful women lined up, they bowed to Chen Xuan and Chen Jia neatly.

I didn't notice at all that in the middle of the seat, there were two young and beautiful women, who were much more noble than them in terms of beauty and identity.

"Sister, isn't it appropriate for us to be here?!" After watching it for a long time, she finally saw a little way, and Ji Xiaofeng also saw something, she said to Ji Ruohua with some embarrassment.

"Sister, it's okay, don't think too much. When we were in the court, wouldn't we see a lot of scenes like this...... Much more than that. Ji Ruohua said with some disapproval.

Hearing her sister say this, Ji Xiaofeng said calmly: "Our father has three thousand harem beauties, and so many young and beautiful harem beauties, our father can't enjoy it at all...... Needless to say, every time we eat, we are forced to consume these beauties, which makes us very annoyed when we see these people now. ”

"County Lord, what are you talking about?!" Chen Jiageng asked with interest.

"Brother Chen, we are saying that during the meal, so many beauties are used to it in our court, and the scene is much bigger than here......"

Chen Jiageng nodded and said, "What the county lord said is very right. You can feel our folk way of life, which is the best way of life that ordinary people can enjoy......"

"It seems that Brother Chen's style is quite high, presumably he is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Ji Ruohua asked.

"Brother Chen, three thousand beauties, if you are allowed to enjoy it, will you be able to bear it?!" Ji Xiaofeng asked.

"No, this definitely won't work, let alone three thousand beauties, even if it's three beauties, I, Chen Jiageng, will definitely not be able to stand it. ”

"Big brother, you are a full man, you don't know how hungry you ......" Chen Zhong glanced at Chen Fangguo and said.

"Then what is the reason, I think it must not be the physical reason, Brother Chen is not very old, and his body looks very strong...... When I was at the Xingzi Station the other night, I cut those wild boars into pieces of east and west......" Ji Ruohua said.

"Wouldn't it be dangerous if I didn't do that at that time?!"

"Fortunately, if there is danger, everyone will take it together, which is called blessing and hardship. Chen Xuan also said.

"By the way, since you mentioned Brother Chen's qin, chess, calligraphy and painting just now, you must have a deep attainment, right?!" Chen Fangguo glanced at the white folding fan in Chen Jiageng's hand and asked.

Chen Jiageng shook his head and said: "Thanks to the praise of the county lord, I dare not say that I am proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I know a little bit about it." Since our brother Chen wants to open an auction house, I can help him with this......"

"Really? Brother Chen is really good, then I will ask you to draw more in the future, and then I will help you sell it for a high price with my three-inch tongue...... Isn't this the best of both worlds?!" Chen Fangguo said excitedly.

"This can be had, little brother, it's here today, let's stop talking about business matters, eat as much as you want, drink as much as you want, and play as much as you like today." Business matters, let's talk about it another day, I do have a lot of ideas, I want to discuss with you, this is called fate, fate is coming, and I can't stop it......"

"Okay, Brother Chen, I won't talk about business today. We just have to eat, drink and have fun......" Chen Fangguo nodded hurriedly and said.

"Then can you choose one for yourself, see if you have a favorite, if you do, please tell me the number of her brand, so that I will leave the courtesan to accompany ......you," Xiao Er hurriedly said.

Since he was just singing and talking with himself, it was actually nothing, Chen Xuan thought in his heart.

So, he smiled and said to Xiao Er: "Xiao Er, I choose this No. 1 ......"

"Okay, Number One, please stay......"

"I'll pick the No. 2 ......," Tan Kah Kee said.

"Good ......"

"I'll pick No. 3, no, I'll pick ......No. 4," Chen said.

"Okay, this gentleman wants the fourth ......," said the shopkeeper.

"I said that you are really shameless, if you want to choose, choose a good choice, don't lose sesame seeds and pick up watermelons, it's not good to go on like this, it's not ......dedicated at all," Chen Zhong began to laugh at him again.

"You...... You tell me to try again, believe it or not, I'm going to beat you into a pig's head tonight, and see how you get sick when you go back tomorrow?!" Chen Fangguo pointed at Chen Zhong's nose and scolded.

"Okay, if the two of you are arguing, I'll kick you two out now, don't blame me for not reminding you ......" Chen Xuan slapped the table and said to them.

Fortunately, he slapped a copper table, and the force was not too great, but because of what he did just now, the four legs of the table were slapped short.

Moreover, there is an unsightly dimple on the tabletop......

Seeing this, Xiao Er couldn't help but be surprised, his face twitched a few times, but he didn't say anything, but asked Ji Ruohua and her sisters, "You two...... What's the demand?!".

"You also want to introduce us to the courtesans?!" Ji Xiaofeng asked.

Xiao Er coughed a little embarrassed and said, "If you really need it, I'll give you another batch of people, can you, girl?!"

When Ji Xiaofeng heard him say this, he began to think in his heart, thinking that when he was in the court, because his father was very strict with him, he never allowed himself to have any deviant behavior, including holding hands with boys, this is the so-called male and female intimateness......

Today, since she came to this place where birds don't, she just took this opportunity to see this folk customs, so she hurriedly said to Xiao Er: "Find me a few, this girl wants to see and see today...... Don't worry, there is a silver ticket greatly. ”

"Thank you, girl, thank you, girl, then please wait a minute...... By the way, those who were selected by the guests just now will stay here to accompany the guests, and those who are not selected can leave the venue now. ”

After explaining the matter, Xiao Er nodded again, and quickly retreated with those courtesans who were not selected by them.

The remaining courtesans went up to their temporary masters, found themselves a stool, and sat down next to them.

Chen Xuan clearly felt a strong smell of powder and fat, coming towards him in all directions.

Moreover, for the first time in his life, when he saw such a beautiful woman, he actually had a very strange change in his body, and he couldn't say this change at once, which was very embarrassing...... It had only happened in a dream before......

But because of the presence of other people, he couldn't do too much fantasizing, so he had to put on a smiling face and say to the No. 1 courtesan he had chosen, "Little girl, have you eaten today......?"

After Chen Xuan asked this sentence, he felt very inappropriate, and wondered if he would be underestimated by the other party.

So, he hurriedly changed his words: "Little girl, how old are you this year?!"

"Eighteen-year-old ......" No. 1 courtesan smiled at Chen Xuanwan and said.

"Ah, it's so big, it's actually two or three years older than me......" Chen Xuan said with some embarrassment.

"This official, are you only fifteen or sixteen years old this year?!"

"What's wrong? Don't I look that big?!"

"Yes, you look mature, you should look like you're in your twenties. No. 1 courtesan said.

"Okay, I don't have to talk about age anymore, what's your name?!"

"My name is Little Red...... The size of the small, red red ......"

"Hahaha......"

The people around were amused by the conversation between the two of them, only to hear Chen Jiageng say: "Little brother, are you interrogating her?!"

Chen Xuan was a little embarrassed, and smiled: "I don't know how to talk to her......"

"That's what you're going to do for us tonight, little girl?" said Tan Kah Kee.

The No. 1 courtesan thought for a while and said, "Official, the little girl wants to play a song for everyone on a moonlit night in the Spring River......"
