Nan Qiao finally got out of the carriage, and after seeing the big peach tree, the big peach tree reminded her of a story from the former dynasty that she had seen in the book.

In the previous dynasty, there was a poet named Cui Hu, one day he traveled alone to the south of the capital, on the way he was thirsty, and happened to pass by a farmer's house full of flowers and plants in front of the door, so the poet knocked on the door and begged for a drink. The door was opened by a woman, who handed water to the poet, and she leaned on the small peach leaning alone, her eyes were full of affection, and her youthful face and the pink peach blossoms of March complemented each other. The following year, the poet was irrepressible and set foot again in searching. Unexpectedly, the door is the same, but the beauty is difficult to find. The poet was stunned in his heart, so he inscribed a poem on the door:

Last year, in this door today, the peach blossoms on the faces of the people were red.

The face of the person does not know where to go, and the peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze.

Although Nan Qiao knows that the current scene does not conform to the artistic conception of the poem, but the peach blossom is still smiling in the spring breeze, she likes it very much, just like the big peach tree at this moment, she doesn't know what to do, and she doesn't know what to do.

After getting out of the carriage, Nan Qiao and Ciyin walked side by side, and the housekeeper Liang Wenqin followed closely with his things.

At the entrance of the alley, the stall of the meat seller is very conspicuous, and a big greeting word on the hanging flag in front of the door is swaying in the wind at the moment. The housekeeper Liang Wenqin walked to the meat stall, first greeted Uncle Zhu politely, and then slowly said, "Shopkeeper, can I ask you about something?" ”

As he spoke, Liang Wenqin took out a silver ingot from his cuff, about ten taels.

Uncle Zhu only glanced up at Liang Wenqin, and didn't pay much attention to the silver he put on the board. "Are you buying meat?" Uncle Zhu smiled.

At the moment when he met the other party's eyes, Liang Wenqin hesitated for a moment, he was wary and frowned slightly. Liang Wenqin's movements were very small, and all reactions were completed in an instant, and he boasted that he did not let the other party notice it. He subconsciously glanced at the honest butcher twice, but when he looked again, he didn't notice anything special. Xu is his own delusion, he explained.

Liang Wenqin knew the reason why the butcher answered the question, and he thought that he was unwilling to accept ten taels of silver for no reason, so he also smiled: "There is not much meat left here in the store, and these ten taels of silver are my money for buying meat." ”

"Okay, I'll wrap it up for you." Uncle Zhu replied with a smile, and only then did he take the ten taels of silver that Liang Wenqin put on the board.

"If the guest wants to inquire about anything, you may as well come and listen, and I will tell you if I know." Uncle Zhu said something while wrapping the meat.

Liang Wenqin was also unambiguous, and went straight to the point: "Does the store know that there is a middle-aged man named Li Chengren in our alley?" ”

"Li Chengren?" Uncle Zhu muttered a sentence in his mouth after listening to it.

Liang Wenqin followed: "Exactly, does the store have an impression?" ”

Uncle Zhu stopped chopping meat in his hand and stood there pondering for a moment. Then, he suddenly realized: "Ao, I remember, the master of Xiao'er seems to be called Li Chengren." ”

"Dare to ask the storekeeper, the little situation in your mouth is a young man named Shen Jing." Hearing this, Liang Wenqin asked with some joy.

Uncle Zhu nodded and said, "Yes, yes, Xiao Guo'er's surname is Shen, so he is called Shen Qian." When he said the surname Shen, Uncle Zhu intentionally or unintentionally increased his tone, if he didn't listen carefully, others would only think that it was his words that came out of excitement for a while.

Liang Wenqin naturally didn't pay attention to this detail, and when he only heard that the little situation in the Tu family was the person they were looking for, he was excited to feel that he was about to meet the famous sword god senior.

"A few people walked down this alley all the way in, and the one with a willow tree in the courtyard was the one." Uncle Zhu smiled and pointed out the direction to a few people.

When Nan Qiao and Ciyin heard this, they followed the direction of Uncle Zhu's finger and looked over, the alley was very deep, and they couldn't see the willow tree that Uncle Zhu said at a glance.

Liang Wenqin took the wrapped meat, thanked Uncle Zhu again, and then followed the footsteps of Nan Qiao and Ciyin to the depths of the alley.

On the way, the three of them were attracted by the structure of the houses in the red mud alley, and the well-informed Liang Wenqin explained to the two: "This herringbone house structure is very similar to the customs of our Dawei Donghai place, and some people in the alley have migrated from there. ”

Nan Qiao still remembered his master's statement about Shen's life experience, saying that he was likely to be a member of the Shen family in the East China Sea twenty years ago. Therefore, Nan Qiao also deliberately checked the record of that incident in the file at home. Li Chengren's figure appeared in that incident, and it was also the first battle in the East China Sea, and he fought alone against the five great masters of the imperial court to have the title of the current Nanke Sword God.

So when he saw the custom buildings in the alley in the East China Sea, Nan Qiao felt more and more that the master's statement was right.

Although Uncle Liang also knew a lot of secrets back then, he didn't know the specific identity of Shen Qian, and Nan Qiao didn't plan to say it. She knew in her heart that once such a sensitive identity was known, it would definitely bring death to Shen Guo, not to mention, now the people from the Heavenly Prison Division and the Earth Net were in Wumei Fog City.

Suddenly there was a soft knock outside the wooden door.

Shen Jing and Su Yao, who were meditating under the willow tree, heard it for the first time, and before they opened their eyes, Shen Jing knew that it was Miss Chen'er who was coming again. For this cute little girl who has been called by her own lady to send a famous post, Shen Jing and Su Yao like it very much, like little sisters. Although Shen Guo always refused, Chen'er didn't care about it over time. Come with the name of the young lady, then sit and drink a cup of tea under the willow tree in the small courtyard, and occasionally chat with Shen Gongzi for a few more words before you can go back to your life.

Shen Guo habitually thought that Chen'er was here again, so he didn't open his eyes, but just shouted softly: "The door is not closed, come in directly!" After that, he continued to meditate.

"Shen Gongzi!" Suddenly, a dull man's voice came into Shen Jing's ears.

Shen Jing and Su Yao opened their eyes almost at the same time, and looked at the three people who appeared in front of the fence in surprise, and the two of them also stood up. After seeing Dugu Nanqiao and Ciyin, Shen was a little surprised. The middle-aged man who spoke, Shen Jing, also had the impression that he was the one who presided over the first street competition with Dugu Nanqiao.

"How many of you are here?" Shen Jing frowned and looked at the three of them, and asked with some confusion.

Nan Qiao and Ciyin were not looking at Shen Qian, and since the two of them saw Su Yao, their eyes never left each other. When I heard Shen Jing speak at this time, and suddenly looked at him, I didn't expect that the woman I saw last night would be Shen Jing's wife.

After hearing Shen Guo's question, Liang Wenqin put the gift on the stone table and said with a smile: "Shen Gongzi, I don't know if you still remember me?" ”

Shen Jing looked at those things, and he didn't know how to shirk for a while, so he had to nod and respond: "Kid still remembers, you are the senior who presided over the competition that day." ”

Hearing that Shen still remembered, the smile on Liang Wenqin's face was even bigger, and he said with a grin: "In Xia Liang Wenqin, he is the housekeeper of the Dugu General's Mansion in Qiuluo City. My young lady knows that Lingshi has an old relationship with Yunmeng Mountain, and since she has come to Meiwu City this time, as a junior lady, she naturally needs to come to pay a visit, I don't know where the predecessor of the Sword God is at the moment? ”

Shen Guo thought about it for a long time, and he also thought a lot about the reasons why the three of them came here, but he didn't expect Dugu Nanqiao to come to the door for such a reason, so he replied seriously: "The master has left Meiwu City a few months ago to travel all over the world, as for when he will come back, it depends on his old man's mood, so this time I am afraid that I will disappoint Steward Liang and Miss Dugu." ”

After speaking, Shen Guo motioned for the three of them to sit down, and poured a cup of tea for the three of them one by one.

Because there were only four chairs on the stone table, Su Yao went back to the house alone. Until Su Yao left, Nan Qiao and Ciyin's eyes would still stay on her intentionally or unintentionally.

From the moment Nan Qiao saw Su Yao meditating under the tree with Shen Jing, her originally calm heart was fluctuating again. Ciyin naturally had the same idea as Nan Qiao, she even began to feel that Shen Jing was not pleasing to the eye at all, and even dared to go to Yunmeng Mountain to ask for a marriage with her junior sister with a family, she hated that Uncle Yun was still not heavy enough that day, thinking of this, her heart was indignant, and her eyes became more and more unfriendly when she looked at Shen Jing again.

Shen Jing naturally didn't know what Ciyin was thinking at the moment, and after sitting down and talking to Liang Wenqin, he glanced at Dugu Nanqiao, who was sitting on his right. Nan Qiao happened to look up at that time, and the four looked at each other, but they soon separated.

Xu noticed the somewhat embarrassing atmosphere, and Liang Wenqin, who was chatting, smiled and softened again: "I didn't expect that Shen Gongzi already had a family at a young age, and there is no better young talent than this!" ”

It was the second time that Su Yao had been mistaken by others for her own mother, and Shen was a little confused. Su Yao had already given him a lot of white eyes when she heard Yu Wenyuan's misunderstanding before, and if she heard it again this time, it would not be a problem that white eyes could solve. Therefore, when he heard Liang Wenqin's words, Shen Jing also subconsciously turned his head and looked into the house twice, and hurriedly explained after seeing that Su Yao was no longer at the door: "Steward Liang misunderstood, that girl is just an old friend of mine, not my wife." ”

"Hehehe, I misunderstood. However, Shen Gongzi and that girl are talented and beautiful, and they look like a perfect match. Liang Wenqin said with a smile.

Although this sound a little strange, after all, he was also praising them, so Shen Jing did not refute anything. Ciyin on the side, after knowing that Su Yao was just Shen Jing's friend, the hostility disappeared, and once again felt that Shen Jing was pleasing to the eye. And when she heard Steward Liang's inappropriate words, Ciyin felt that Steward Liang looked unpleasant.

When Nan Qiao heard Shen Guo say that Su Yao was just a friend, her originally fluctuating heart gradually calmed down, and not only that, but she even felt a little shallow happiness in her heart.

————

After sitting for a short time, Liang Wenqin knew that staying here would only cause obstacles for the other three to talk, so he made an excuse to leave for a while, leaving the space for the three of them.

After Liang Wenqin left, the atmosphere between the three of them was a little stiff. Shen Jing looked up at Dugu Nanqiao and Ciyin, and found that Nanqiao was lowering his head and didn't know what he was thinking. He had no choice but to look at Ciyin and said softly, "Senior Sister Ciyin! ”

Ciyin smiled and asked, "How is Senior Brother Shen's injury?" ”

As soon as Ciyin finished speaking, Nan Qiao, who was sitting on the side, hurriedly followed and said, "The master didn't want to hurt you, you... Don't take it personally. ”

Shen Jing smiled and said, "Miss Seventh doesn't have to worry, I know that Senior Yun didn't really want to hurt me that day, it was all skin injuries, and it would be fine to recuperate for a few days." ”

"That's good, that's good." After listening to him, Nan Qiao's tone seemed to be a little relieved and a little relieved.

With that, the three of them fell into a brief silence. Nan Qiao lowered his head and held the teacup in both hands.

Ciyin, who was sitting opposite Shen Kuang, spoke up again: "Yesterday, I saw Senior Brother Shen Kuang with the Yuwen family and the people outside the building, did Senior Brother Shen Kuang cooperate with them?" ”

Shen Jing didn't hide it, and replied: "Senior sister guessed right, they all came to me a few days ago, and I was also interested in the Fu Xuan Sword in the Qin Mountains, so I joined them." ”

Shen Guan said casually as if he hadn't considered the cause and effect, so when Nan Qiao heard it, Mu Ran raised his head and said a little nervously: "You can trust the people of the Yuwen family, but you must be careful of the people outside the building." The factions in the building outside the building are intricate, and you don't want to be secretly stumbled. When I came, my father told me that there was a genius named Jiang Ning in the young generation outside the building, who was the girl who was with you yesterday. Don't think I'm talking bad about her behind my back, and remember to be careful. ”
