The arrival of the Mid-Autumn Festival has made the business of the entire Danfengcheng restaurant, inn, casino, and various shops also boom.

And the most profitable can be said to be the painting boat of Tianwang Lake and the business of various green buildings.

The price of the painting boat by Tianwang Lake will definitely increase at this time, and Xu Changting has already experienced it personally during the Qingming Festival.

But the business of each Qinglou is hot, Xu Changting didn't know much before, this time he returned to Danfeng City for the first Mid-Autumn Festival, and he also knew that the most popular Mid-Autumn Festival business was the top brand in each Qinglou and the business of the two Oiran.

Some wealthy dignitaries, gate valve families, and even celebrity businessmen will actually raise some courtesans and so on, so often at this time, there is no need to go to the Qinglou to invite those women to help the fun.

For example, in the house of Leling Marquis Gaoliang, there are many courtesans bought from various green buildings and so on.

And some people who don't raise these courtesans in the house on weekdays often greet each Qinglou a few days in advance, and when it comes to the Mid-Autumn Festival, they will take the Qinglou women who have already made an appointment to the house, or to the painting boat to cheer them up for the festival and add to the lively atmosphere of the festival.

Jiaofang Division, Qingyun Building, Lixue Pavilion and other most famous Qinglou in Danfeng City, at this time, they often increase the value of the top brand a lot, or for the sake of profit, the other women who were originally attached to the top brand are divided into several small groups at this time, so as to ensure that the interests of the Qinglou can be maximized.

However, this year is a little different from previous years, the two Oiran in Qingyunlou and Jiaofang Division, who would announce their going to their mansion early in previous years, have not moved this year.

Some people say that it is because there are two good poems this year, and it is because the value has become higher, so many people in Danfeng City are discouraged and cannot afford to pay this money.

And some people say that there are many rich people in Danfeng City, not because they can't afford to pay these money, but because there are too many invitations in the hands of the two oirans, and they don't know which one is more suitable to choose for a while.

After all, Oiran also has to understand human feelings, right? The price given here is enough, but is the identity and status enough?

If they choose to reject some powerful people just because of money, then they probably can't afford to offend, right?

Even if they have the support of the royal family of Qingyunlou behind them, even if the official government is behind the teaching department, how many powerful people are in Danfeng City? Maybe there are people who are not afraid of the government and the king of Anle?

Therefore, the reason why the two Oirans this year saw that the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, but they did not announce whose house they would go to and which painting boat they would take, I am afraid that it was because they had to weigh the pros and cons and strive to ensure that no one was offended.

But the real truth is completely contrary to the rumors, no matter how the old bustard of Qingyunlou persuaded the Song Yi people, the Song Yi people have never expressed their intention to agree to any of them except for looking through the mountains of invitations every day.

The situation on Pei Murong's side is almost exactly the same as that of Song Yiren, and now Ruan Sanniang doesn't know how many invitations she has brought to Shuizhuyuan, but Pei Murong has turned them over one by one, and there is no follow-up.

This made Ruan Sanniang look at Pei Murong with a quiet expression helplessly, and she didn't know what to say.

The bitter truths and stakes were also broken and crumpled and told to Pei Murong one by one, but Pei Murong was always indifferent, and she didn't know what she was thinking in her heart.

At this time, Xu Changting, who was at home, looked at Wu Jiangnan and walked over with a reluctant face, still lying on the chair like a corpse, and asked lazily: "What's the matter?" Who bullied you? ”

"Hmph." Wu Jiangnan didn't speak, and after snorting, he threw the two invitations to Xu Changting: "See for yourself." ”

"What?" Xu Changting picked up two invitations with a faint fragrance from his face: "Qingyun Building, Teaching Workshop Division...... It can't be an invitation from the two Oirans, right? ”

"Sure enough, men are not good things, they all have a crush on people, and they are still messing with flowers outside." Wu Jiangnan said angrily.

Xu Changting opened his mouth to argue for himself, but seeing the little girl pouting and arrogant, he finally gave up wasting his tongue.

"Why, I told you to the bottom of my heart, right? I'm going to write to tell Mademoiselle what you've been doing all this time. Wu Jiangnan saw that Xu Changting didn't refute at all, and his heart naturally became more and more angry.

At this time, shouldn't you defend yourself a few times? Isn't it right to say that your affection for Miss has never changed, and that you are just playing with these two Oiran?

So what do you mean by not saying a word now? Do you admit that you have an affair with them? Then do you still have my young lady in your heart!

"Write it, I'm sure your young lady won't be as small-bellied as you." Xu Changting lay on the chair and looked at the ...... sent by Song Yiren and Pei Murong Letters, letters like invitations.

It didn't invite him to Qingyun Building or the Teaching Workshop Division, but just said some innocuous and headless words, and almost all of them were words piled up with gorgeous words, so that people could see the spring between the lines, but from that tone, it seemed to feel a bit bleak and cold in the autumn.

So when Xu Changting read it silently, he finally understood that the two letters that coexisted with the spring and the autumn breeze actually had only one question: How did you spend the Mid-Autumn Festival? Where have you been? Who are you going to spend time with? You know what I mean, right? Those two poems are really good, and I haven't had a serious chance to thank you, so ...... Right, I don't need to say anything clearer, right?

When Wu Jiangnan read the letter in Xu Changting, he secretly came to him at some point, and after reading it with Xu Changting, he immediately let out a pretending disgusting tsk: "Huh...... It's really meaty, and the goosebumps are falling to the ground. ”

"Who told you to see it?" Xu Changting rolled his eyes and said.

Then without waiting for the gesture to cross his waist and start arguing with Xu Changting, He Ye'er appeared at the door: "Son, the master is waiting for you in the study." ”

Wu Jiangnan immediately put down his hand: "Hmph, spare you this time, see if you dare next time!" "Too lazy to pay attention to you. Xu Changting suddenly stretched out his hand to rub Wu Jiangnan's hair, and then walked out of the room, and naturally behind him was Wu Jiangnan's voice protesting and threatening to tell her young lady.

Xu Zhongli's study, at this moment, Xu Zhongli is not alone, there are two middle-aged people who are about the same age as him: Wang Su, the former secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Xiao Siyu, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.

As soon as Xu Changting walked into the study, Xu Zhongli said to him with a smile: "I haven't seen you Uncle Wang and Uncle Xiao yet." ”

Xu Changting immediately saluted obediently, and his mouth was also very well-behaved: "My nephew Weiyang has seen Uncle Wang and Uncle Xiao." ”

Wang Su looked up and down at Xu Changting, who was almost taller than Xu Zhongli, and said with a light in his eyes: "I haven't seen you for a few years, but you have really grown into a talented young man, if this is on the street, I am afraid I will not dare to recognize it." ”

"Yes, the little guy who was always snotty bubbles back then, and he was about to get the right eight words, Yushu Linfeng, what a talent." Xiao Siyu also praised on the side.

Regardless of whether Wang Su told Xiao Siyu the truth or falsehood, at least hearing such praise, Xu Zhongli was still very useful in his heart, and he accepted these praises unceremoniously.

After motioning for Xu Changting to sit down on the chair next to him, Xu Zhongli walked behind the desk and sat down, and said, "Your Uncle Wang and Uncle Xiao were invited by their father today, and they plan to go to Tianwang Lake with us for the Mid-Autumn Festival, do you have no opinion?" ”

"No opinion, it's still lively when there are a lot of people." Xu Changting glanced at Wang Su and said to Xiao Siyu.

Xiao Siyu followed Xu Changting's words and said: "Xiao Weiyang, don't lie in front of your Uncle Xiao and Uncle Wang and your father, on the surface, they say that they have no opinion, but in their hearts, they dislike us old antiques, which makes you feel restrained and unhappy." ”

"No, my nephew really thinks it's crowded." Xu Changting said with a smile.

Xu Zhongli gestured to Wang Su and Xiao Siyu with his eyes, as if to say: How is it, I am not wrong, right? I don't know my own son, where is he so stingy as you think?

Wang Su stroked his beard and exchanged glances with Xu Zhongli, then asked Xu Changting: "By the way, I heard that some time ago, you and Lu Rui's son Lu Xidao had some unhappiness?" ”

Xu Changting was smiling, but in his heart he was wondering why Wang Su asked himself so much, Yu Guang looked at his father, and saw that his father was indifferent and did not say anything, so he nodded generously and acknowledged.

"I also met Pei Murong, the Oiran of the Teaching Workshop Division? I heard that the two poems "Gift to Pei Murong to Tianwang Lake" and "Water Bamboo Garden Song" were given to Pei Murong by you? Wang Su asked.

"Uncle Wang smiled, in fact...... These two poems were written by the nephew when he was in Xining, and he heard that No. 1 was a person who was a monk of Qinglian, not by his nephew. Xu Changting explained.

However, he only thought about comparing the personnel in Xining, but he forgot that these words seemed to have nothing to do with Li Taibai.

"The "Gift to the Song Yiren to Visit Tianwang Lake" and the "Peach Blossom Pavilion" for the Qingyunlou Oiran are also made by this Qinglian monk, have you retold it?" Xiao Siyu asked with a smile on his face.

Xu Zhongli has been silent and has not spoken, this matter has long been known, except for the horror that Xu Changting can actually compose poetry, there is no other feeling.

And Xu Zhongli has always been open-minded, especially in the education of his children, as long as it does not involve character, morality, etc., he basically cares too much.

So after knowing that these four poems were all written by Xu Changting, and they were also written for the two major Oirans of Danfeng City, Xu Zhongli was very surprised in his heart, and then he only mentioned it to his wife Chu Ying.

And after Chu Ying learned that Xu Changting had written poems for the two Oirans in Danfeng City, and that each poem was popular, she turned her head to look at Xu Zhongli, and the first thing she said was: "Weiyang is big, isn't it time to tell him about family affairs?" Otherwise...... Even if you only go to the Teaching Workshop Division and Qingyun Building occasionally, it's not good, right? Even if you and I don't care, but his eldest sister and second sister can spare him? You still have to rip out both of his ears? We don't know about this matter, besides, as a father, how should you mention this matter to your son about the Teaching Workshop Division and Qingyun Building? ”

Xu Zhongli felt deeply polite, looked at Chu Ying's charming face, and sighed: "There is a virtuous woman in the family, what more can a husband ask for." ”

His thoughts were pulled back by Wang Su, Xu Zhongli coughed, and then said to Weiyang: "Maybe you don't know, Pei Murong, the flower of the Teaching Division, is the daughter of your Uncle Wang and Uncle Xiao's friends, and it was only because of some things later that she was used as the Teaching Workshop Division." ”

"I've heard Feng Zidu mention it, that is, when I first went to Qingyun Tower." Xu Changting frowned slightly, his eyes wandered back and forth over the three elders, feeling as if they had something to help themselves, and ...... It can't be related to Pei Murong, right?

"Let it go early, over the years, I and your Uncle Wang happened to be in the Ministry of Rites, and we were able to take care of Murong, but after I was dismissed, I and your Uncle Wang didn't have so much money to go to the Teaching Workshop Division for recreation, and if we met in the Teaching Workshop Division, it would be a little embarrassing after all, and it would also make me and your Uncle Wang feel sorry for Murong's father." Xiao Siyu's voice was slightly low.

Wang Su sighed softly, and then said, "Uncle Wang knew that after you met Pei Murong, you also made two poems for her, so I wanted to ...... This year, when the Mid-Autumn Festival is full moon and people are reunited, or you try to ask if you can invite her to spend a Mid-Autumn Festival with us. ”

Xu Changting rolled his eyes in an instant, and immediately understood what Wang Su and Xiao Siyu meant, but with Xu Changting's character of plucking his feathers, he dared to take advantage of the current emperor, not to mention Uncle Wang and Uncle Xiao.

So Xu Changting immediately understood: "Uncle Xiao, Uncle Wang, in fact, my nephew is not very familiar with Pei Murong, even if he sent two poems to her, but ...... After all, it's the Oiran of the Teaching Division, and now that the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, I'm afraid I've already accepted the invitation of other people, right? Well, I can try to ask, but ....... ”

"We have just discussed with your father, and the cost of the Tianwang Lake painting boat will be paid by me and your Uncle Xiao, but...... On the side of this sect division, you still need to rely on your father, especially your nephew, ....... Wang Su said seriously.

"Okay, I'll try. I have one request, though....... Xu Changting's pale face was a little flushed, Xu Zhongli frowned slightly, knowing that his son was Mo Ruo's father, how could Xu Zhongli not understand that this kid had begun to calculate his friends.

However, he didn't plan to stop it immediately, but planned to hear what this kid would ask for first.

"Uncle Xiao and Uncle Wang are not ...... now? Nothing to do? Xu Changting asked.

Xu Zhongli almost laughed out loud when he heard Xu Changting say that he had nothing to do, and Xiao Siyu and Wang Su also blushed instantly, although the words were not good, but I have to say that it is indeed the truth.

Since they were dismissed, they have been living a quiet life, visiting relatives and friends, drinking a pot of tea, eating a drink, reading books, writing, and worrying about the next major events in the world by themselves.

The two of them coughed a little bit and didn't know how to answer, and Xu Zhongli spoke up to help the two of them relieve their embarrassment: "You just say it, what conditions do you want your Uncle Wang and Uncle Xiao to promise you?" ”

"I'm short of Mr. Teach in Banlong Academy." Xu Changting straightened his waist and said.
