The three sisters of Fan Mansion, in terms of appearance and figure, are good at each other, or such as the abundance and dignity of the eldest sister Baofeng, or the elegance and transparency of the second sister Baotan, or the delicate and lively of the third sister Baozhu, it can be said that they have their own merits, and it is difficult to distinguish between them, but when it comes to talent and demeanor, the gap between the three is obvious.

Fan Baofeng, as the eldest sister, speaks and behaves decently, not angry but mighty, whether it is brothers and sisters in the house, or the maids, they all respect in their hearts, and even Guan Linglong, the housekeeper of the Houfu, wants to give her three points.

Although the second sister Fan Baotan is a concubine, she is born with handsome eyes and eyebrows, literary essence, and high ambitions, and is quite respected in the Fan Mansion, and her status is not degraded because of her concubine;

As for the little sister Fan Baozhu, although she is also a little beauty with pink makeup and jade and a face like white jade, she has a rough and willful temper, does her own thing, and knows nothing about the talented girl, she is a typical pampered rich lady.

Therefore, on the Dicui Bridge, Zhuang Yuya and Meng Jian'e listened to Baozhu's nonsense, and they didn't feel how unexpected, but they just felt a headache for what happened later.

Although Fan Baozhu rarely takes into account the feelings of others, she provoked the county lord of Chenghuan this time, and consciously took a bad breath for Meng Jian'e, at this time, she said it somewhat to invite merit, thinking that Meng Jian'e would definitely be grateful to herself, but the two sisters listened to their words, but the expressions on their faces were a little strange, and they didn't seem to agree with their own approach.

"What's wrong with the two sisters, did I do something wrong?" Fan Baozhu's tone was very sincere.

Zhuang Yuya never liked to blame others, only smiled and shook her head, Meng Jian'e said: "It's not a big mistake, it's just that when the county lord Chenghuan really brings his master to visit the mansion, it will inevitably be a little troublesome, and Mr. Xiao Chen is implicated and a little innocent." ”

When Fan Baozhu heard the mention of "Chen Renzhong", he first snorted arrogantly and said, "He is a gentleman invited by our family, what is innocent?"

Zhuang Meng and the two glanced at each other, and they didn't understand where the third lady's malice towards Mr. Chen came from, Zhuang Yuya said: "At the banquet of Princess Hongyu, the county lord of Chenghuan only had a slight advantage over Sister E, so she was so disrespectful, this insult must be made up for anyway, and now Sister Baozhu has made a 'fifteenth covenant' for Ding'e and Chenghuan County Lord, then it is indispensable to compete again the day after tomorrow, what do you say, Sister E?"

Meng Jian'e also knew that the matter was irreparable, so she nodded and said, "That's right." ”

Fan Baozhu got the approval of the two sisters, and became happy again, asked where the two went, and learned that they were going to study and Xuan, and said sullenly, "I don't want to see that person, I won't go", and said goodbye to Zhuang Meng.

After getting this news, Meng Jian'e and Zhuang Yuya felt that they wanted to see Chen Renzhong, and they didn't have time to see more of the various birds in the water, so they walked towards Xueerxuan together.

Fan Baotong had just finished learning a passage of "Analects", and was chatting with Jiang Zhong, reading his business scriptures with flying eyebrows, Jiang Zhong nodded while listening, and then pointed to the pair of paperweight lions made of mutton fat and jade on the desk, and said: "Just like this pair of lions, if there is only this pair in the world, then their value is bound to be incalculable. ”

Fan Baotong bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”

"Speaking of that pen holder, as far as the entire Julian continent is concerned, the style of the pen holder can be described as varied, how can you let the guests only choose your home, which needs to build a brand ......"

"Brand?" asked Fan Baotong puzzled.

"Ang, it's fame, name, it's like when you mention hats, you immediately think of Zhan Yang hats. ”

"I understand, it's a time-honored brand. ”

Jiang Zhong nodded, and was about to further instill the concept of "brand", and then Hanxiang came in and said, "Miss Ya and Miss Meng are here." ”

Fan Baotong asked in surprise, "Why are they here", and then hurriedly asked Hanxiang to invite in.

Jiang Zhong got up and sat down on a chair under the window, holding a copy of "The History of Julian" to read, which is a truth that can be avoided.

As soon as Zhuang Meng and the others entered the house, they heard Bao Tongxi say: "What kind of wind blew the two of you into my Xueerxuan?"

Zhuang Yuya said with a smile: "Since you have come to learn and Xuan, of course, there is a question to ask Mr. ”

Fan Baotong let out an "oh" and looked at Chen Renzhong, Zhuang Yuya turned his head and called "Mr. Chen", and Chen Renzhong turned his head sideways to greet the two.

Fan Baotong asked, "Sister Zhuang, do you have any questions for Mr."

Zhuang Yuya smiled and pushed Meng Jian'e and said, "E'er, you come to ask." ”

Meng Jian'e glanced at Jiang Zhong quickly and said, "Is that the poem you read that night really just a key to swordsmanship?"

Chen Renzhong said: "Naturally, the two girls must have already understood the law." Jiang Zhong's gaze fell on Zhuang Yuya.

Zhuang Yuya said generously: "What I see is irony, Mr. is worried about the tiger eye of the demon clan, and the angry human race is indisputable in pleasure and does not fight, so there are detectives who have repeatedly reported back, but we are still singing and dancing, and the worries of the thousand peaks of Ni Shang, I don't know if the foolish understanding is appropriate?"

Jiang Zhong nodded slightly and said, "Miss Zhuang is here, so I don't need to say more." ”

Zhuang Yuya turned her head again and asked Meng Jian'e, "Sister E, do you have anything else to say?" The implied meaning in her tone was already very obvious.

Meng Jian'e paused for a moment and said: "I came today, in addition to asking for poems, I also want to say thank you to Mr. Chen. ”

Jiang Zhong said: "At the right time, Miss Meng doesn't have to be polite. ”

Meng Jian'e had already opened her mouth, all kinds of worries were gone, and said: "On the fifteenth day after tomorrow, the lord of Prince Zhong's Mansion Chenghuan will bring his master to visit Fan's Mansion. ”

"Hmm, what do you mean by that?"

Meng Jian'e told Fan Baozhu about provoking the county lord of Chenghuan, and Jiang Zhong said with a smile: "Then it can only be blocked by soldiers, and covered by water." ”

Zhuang Yuya listened to these two sentences, and was surprised, and muttered to herself, "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth", thinking that this sentence must be an exclamation that Chen Renzhong usually feels the ambition of the demon race, and praised: "Mr. Chen is always worried about the country and the people, which is admirable. ”

Jiang Zhong didn't explain either, and nodded humbly.

Zhuang Yuya and Meng Jian'e then resigned from Chen Renzhong and Fan Baotong to leave Xueerxuan, Fan Baotong was curious about the conversation of Fang Cai, and talked to Jiang Zhong about the demon clan, Jiang Zhong had to see the move, fortunately, he has been reading "Julian History" these days, and he has a certain degree of grasp of the specific situation of the three clans of people, demons and demons.

......

On July 14, Penglai Inn Qiao'er came to Fan's Mansion to visit Jiang Zhong, the little girl said that she was ordered by the shopkeeper Han, but in fact, she had some of her own thoughts, after all, she had grown so big, and it was the first time she took the initiative to take care of a person full-time, and it was inevitable that she would have a sense of responsibility.

When the concierge of Fan's Mansion heard that it was the maid of Mr. Xiao Chen, a distinguished guest in the mansion, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly went in to report back, Jiang Zhong hurriedly asked for it, and after Qiao'er entered the mansion and saw Jiang Zhong, her face was full of surprise, as if she didn't know each other.

"What's wrong Qiao'er, I haven't seen you for a few days, don't you know me?" Jiang Zhong saw Qiao'er again, and he was in a good mood.

Qiao'er's expression was a little confused, and she said, "Childe, what's the matter, why has it changed so much?"

"Changed?" Jiang Zhong subconsciously touched his chin, thinking that he had grown a beard.

Qiao'er nodded, looking at Jiang Zhong with a pair of wonderful eyes, with an incredulous expression.

Jiang Zhong looked at Qiao'er, and suddenly remembered that at that time in the Spring and Autumn Pavilion, those palace maids and eunuchs in King Jiang's palace, including Gao An, the chief eunuch of the East Palace, seemed to have this kind of expression when they saw him.

So Jiang Zhong left Qiao'er to take care of himself in the Fan Mansion.

A day later, the county lord of Chenghuan came to the Fan Mansion as promised, and in addition to the two guards of Prince Zhong's Mansion, there was also a woman in white with good charm, who should be the master of the county lord of Chenghuan.
