The name of this Zhou housekeeper is Zhou Da, and he is a scholar who followed Mrs. Fan in his early years, and after so many years, the little scholar has become the big housekeeper of Fan's house, because he is the most powerful person around Mrs. Fan, even the three masters of the Fan family let him score three points, and the grandchildren of the Fan family of the later generation even want to call him "Grandpa Zhou". Therefore, Zhou Da's status as a servant in the Fan Mansion has become a kind of name.

After Zhou Da entered the house, except for Fan Changfeng who sat still, several shopkeepers stood up to meet, Fan Changfeng heard that the master wanted to see the guests, where did he dare to delay, and said busily: "Then Lao Zhou will take Chen Gongzi to see the master, don't let the master wait for a long time." ”

Several shopkeepers nodded yes, Jiang Zhong got up to say goodbye to Second Master Fan and the shopkeepers, and went out of the main house with Zhou Da to see Old Lady Fan.

The two left the main house compound, turned onto a long verandah, all the way forward, suddenly heard a burst of laughter, a few people walked opposite, a brightly dressed and brilliant woman led a group of maids, was smiling and talking to a pretty girl next to her, only to hear the girl say: "You and that Xiao girl are chess opponents, will meet good talents, and their mouths are as powerful." ”

As he was talking, they bumped into each other, and the bright woman smiled at Zhou and said, "Ask Old Man Zhou, what is Old Man Zhou doing in such a hurry?"

Zhou Dadao: "Hello Second Master Guan, I'll take this little brother Chen to see the master, the master is in a hurry and doesn't stop." ”

When the woman heard that it was the master's business, she didn't dare to delay, and turned back to the maids and said, "They all have eyes, and they don't get out of the way, blocking Uncle Zhou's way." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Jiang Zhong again, smiling his head, Jiang Zhong looked at the woman called "Guan Erye'er", and secretly praised "such a capable woman".

After walking forward for a while, Jiang Zhonggang wanted to ask about the allusion to the title of "Guan Erye'er", Zhou Da took the initiative to say: "This girl is the daughter-in-law of the eldest master's family Brother Xuan, her surname is Guan, and it is said that she can dance the ancestral knife in the family, has an amazing martial arts, and is shrewd and capable, and is in charge of the affairs of the ladies in the house. ”

Jiang Zhong smiled and nodded, "It's really appropriate." ”

The two walked to the end of the verandah, only to see Zhou Da turn a corner in front of him, walk a few steps and turn north, pass through a corner gate, and get on a north-south road, about half a cup of tea, and another hall, Zhou Da turned around slightly and asked: "This is it." ”

Passing through the hall, there is a large backyard, rockery pools, pavilions, pavilions, flowers and stone bridges...... It spreads out like a landscape painting in front of you.

"Childe, please. Zhou Da continued to lead the way, out of a pavilion corridor, on a small white stone bridge, a few steps to cross, down the bridge, in front of a row of shallow stone steps.

"Childe be careful. Zhou Da said, leading the way in front, Jiang Zhong stepped on the stone steps, while habitually counting silently in his heart, after walking the stone steps, just counted to three hundred and sixty-five, and an octagonal pavilion with a different scale from others was in Qingquan.

At this moment, Jiang Zhong suddenly felt that the golden pea in his body trembled, and his heart moved, and he looked left and right with his afterglow, thinking, "There must be several secret whistles with extraordinary skills lurking nearby." When I looked up, I saw an old man in sackcloth sitting on the edge of the pavilion and looking up at the white clouds in the sky, and I didn't have to guess that it was the real richest man in the Ten Kingdoms, the old lady Fan, the head of the Fan family.

At the moment when Jiang Zhongjin's martial arts trembled, Old Lady Fan turned his head to look at this side, and then beckoned.

Zhou Da stopped and said, "Son, go, I'm waiting here." Jiang Zhong nodded and entered the Octagonal Pavilion.

"Sit. ”

Old Lady Fan looked back at Jiang Zhong and pointed to the seat next to him and said.

Jiang Zhong took a seat, and then saw that Old Lady Fan was barefoot, soaking in the spring at will.

"You can try this spring too. Old lady Fan had an innocent look on her face, instigating Jiang Zhong.

Jiang Zhong smiled and took off his shoes and socks, and sat side by side with Mrs. Fan, his feet did not enter the spring water, only to feel a coolness quickly spread all over his body, and the whole body was smooth.

"How?"

"Good. ”

Old Lady Fan nodded with satisfaction, and after a while, she looked up at the white clouds in the sky again, and asked casually, "Gongzi Chen is from Jiang Guochang'an?"

"Yes. ”

Mrs. Fan let out a "hmm" and sighed: "The Xiongcheng city of Chang'an, the first city in the world, really lives up to its name, the last time I went was fifteen years ago." ”

Jiang Zhong had no choice but to nod, and said secretly in his heart: "When I saw Zhou Da like that, I really thought that the old man had something urgent to find himself, but now that he came over, he realized that he was asking himself to accompany him to soak his feet." Then he thought again: "That's right, Wang Fuyao said that he was still turning around in advance, and said that he had made a half-day opening remarks, not to mention this old ancestor in the business field." ”

"Ten years of sharpening a sword, the frost blade has not been tried. Today, who has a grievance?" Old Lady Fan suddenly read the poem that Jiang Zhong retreated from the enemy, and then commented: "I am actually not proficient in literature and ink, and I occasionally read books, but I am just a vassal and elegant, but I appreciate the poem of Gongzi very much in my heart, and I like the pride that blurted out the most, no wonder those clowns who jump off the beam cannot be matched." ”

"The old man praised it falsely. Jiang Zhong said modestly, and then asked, "The old man likes to watch clouds?"

"Yes, the great Fan Mansion, I love it the most, washing my feet while watching the clouds, it's fun?"

Jiang Zhong also looked up at the sky, saw that the clouds were moving slowly, and said: "The clouds like to be loose and free, and they are at peace with what they encounter, and the old man is afraid that it is rare to have such leisure." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"The boy said in vain, first ask the old man for forgiveness. ”

"It's just small talk, but it's okay to say. ”

"The old man is looking at the clouds in the pavilion, and his heart is running outside the pavilion. ”

Mrs. Fan was stunned, and then laughed, with a desolate meaning in her smile, and said, "Childe knows me." ”

Jiang Zhong was silent.

Mrs. Fan said: "One day I read the "Book of Songs", and I read such a sentence, 'Those who know me say that I am worried, and those who do not know me say what I want', but I couldn't say a word for a long time.

Jiang Zhong pondered for a long time, and only said four words: "How can you continue?"

Old Lady Fan's face changed slightly when she heard this, she sighed and muttered to herself: "How can you continue?

Jiang Zhong said that these four words, there is a general meaning, as Wang Fuyao said that day, "there is nothing new in the big family", but it is the problem of inheriting the family business, Mrs. Fan has three sons, three grandchildren, how to distribute the family property in the future, is an unavoidable problem, not only to ensure the harmony of the children and grandchildren, but also to make the family business to be inherited safely, how can not be worried?

When Mrs. Fan heard these four words, she touched another thing that was like a fish in her throat:

Fan Fu as a family of Shang saints, rich and rival the country, in the civil and military Julian continent is unique, it is the fire cooking oil, flowers brocade, a vigorous faction, but his three sons, the eldest Chang Kai is sluggish, blindly squandering Gao Le, unable to run the family; the second Changfeng inherited his own simple style, and is loyal to the people, the first of the three sons, but the talent is mediocre, although he has awakened the courage of literature and courage by diligent study and hard study, but he is more than dull, shrewd and insufficient, and it is still difficult to keep the family business, not to mention opening up the territory; as for the third elder age, he is even more addicted to the art of immortality, and he is almost crazy about alchemy and dispensing medicine all day long, almost crazy, how to inherit the family business？

The three sons are unavailable, and the three grandsons are even more intensified, and the only grandson who has aura intelligence, and even has a temperament comparable to his youth, has become the head of a sloppy team, doing all kinds of evil every day, turning Luzhou City upside down.

In this way, how can the reputation of the Shang Sheng's family continue through the ages? How can the huge family business of the Fan Mansion continue? How can the future of the whole and the whole family continue to be continued?

This is what Mrs. Fan is really worried about.

"Has Chen Gongzi heard of my gourd grandson?"

"I heard what the king's shopkeeper said. ”

"Well, my grandson, although he is not as good as Xiao Chen Gongzi in terms of aura, he is not inferior to young people of the same age. ”

Jiang Zhong nodded in agreement.

Mrs. Fan seemed to be recalling the past, and said: "I don't know about the gourd left by people to my grandson, most of the people in the house know about it, Fuyao told you, it's not strange, but I don't know that in addition to the gourd, people left eight words for me back then, and so far only I know these eight words." ”

Jiang Zhong was curious, but he didn't want to ask too much, so he listened attentively.

Old lady Fan looked at Jiang Zhong with burning eyes, and said word by word: "In the year of twenty-seven, I met Chen Chengxiang. After a pause, he continued: "Tomorrow is the fourteenth birthday of my gourd grandson, and Xiao Chen Gongzi you just entered my Fan Mansion, so Xiao Chen Gongzi, you are the noble person of my gourd grandson's life!"
