Chapter 21 Jade Swallow Fang
Yangzhou is located in the south by the sea, and it has already arrived at the season of the rainy season just after the sting.
The thunder is rolling, the electric light is like a python, entwining the gloomy sea of clouds, and the low-lying places in Yangzhou City are all rivers.
In the torrential rain and thunder, the streets of Jinfei Lake are still lively, and a cyan oil-paper umbrella has come to the door of the largest restaurant in Jinfei Lake - Yuyanfang, with the hustle and bustle.
On one side of the lake, there are all weeping willows and spring flowers, which fall in the rain.
Standing under the cyan oil-paper umbrella in front of Yuyanfang, Zuo Lingtian's mood was like a falling flower floating up and down in the rain, and his face was not wonderful.
Zuo Lingtian held an oil-paper umbrella in his hand, standing in front of the door of Yuyanfang, his face was a little embarrassed, and he lowered his head and asked Lin Daiyu, who had just reached his shoulder:
"Sister Lin, are you sure you're here?"
Yuyanfang is not only the largest restaurant on Jinfei Lake, but also the most luxurious green building in Yangzhou, of which all the painting boats on Jinfei Lake are under the name of Yuyanfang.
Lin Daiyu looked as usual, and entered the door to take the cloud silk cloth handed over by the little maid to wipe the rain-soaked place:
"This Yuyanfang is the most luxurious place in the whole Yangzhou, isn't it good to come here?"
The little guy on the side took the oil-paper umbrella in Zuo Lingtian's hand, and he also saw what Zuo Lingtian was thinking:
"This Xianggong, our Yuyanfang has recently been contracted by the second miss of the Xiao family to do a poetry meeting, and the sons and daughters of each family have also been present recently, and we are also closed today, only a few of us are left to receive guests."
Xiaowu's explanation can be regarded as a solution to Zuo Lingtian's doubts, Yuyanfang, as the most luxurious restaurant in the entire Yangzhou, if it is just a brothel business, it is not worth attracting Yangzhou's dignitaries and nobles to come here to spend a lot of money.
Therefore, Yuyanfang vigorously built itself into an elegant residence, and its interior decoration value is luxurious, but it is extremely elegant.
Zuo Lingtian put his mind at ease, and now that Lin Ruhai woke up, he locked himself in the house without speaking.
It is estimated that the psychological area is not small, Lin Daiyu knew that her father was fine, so she took the snow goose out with Zuo Lingtian with confidence.
I went around and came to Yuyanfang.
Zuo Lingtian walked slowly behind Lin Daiyu and carefully observed Yuyanfang.
Famous calligraphy and paintings are arranged outside, and a pond three zhang square is vacated in the middle of the courtyard-sized vestibule, and its sewer is directly connected to Jinfei Lake, and now the heavy rain falls from the vacated pond into the Yuyan Fang like a waterfall.
It's a luxury, is this the pearl of the night?
Zuo Lingtian looked at the pillars of Yuyanfang inlaid with shimmering beads, Zuo Lingtian, who had never seen such a treasure, just wanted to touch it, but was stopped by the snow goose:
"Childe, Miss is waiting for you in front."
"Uh, okay."
Zuo Lingtian was very depressed and stopped the movements in his hand and followed behind the snow goose.
Lin Daiyu was standing quietly at the turn of the stairs, her brows furrowed:
"I don't have enough money to bring today."
"Sister Lin."
Snow Goose rushed over from behind with Zuo Lingtian and said hello, Lin Daiyu responded with some twists:
"Brother Zuo."
Zuo Lingtian hooked the corners of his mouth: "Still have troubles?" ”
Lin Daiyu looked at the heavy rain outside the window of Yuyanfang, blinked her eyes, her lips pursed, her fingers rubbed Suxue's silk skirt, and she said with a little entanglement: "Brother Zuo, I was originally a host, please have a good meal in this Yuyanfang, but the silver you brought today is not enough." ”
Zuo Lingtian thought it was a big deal, but the silver was not enough, so what was it.
I think that my Zuo Lingtian has also bought a lot of silver in the border pass in the past five years, and he is usually thrifty, isn't there not enough silver.
immediately grinned, and took out his purse: "How much silver is said, my brother is not a big deal." ”
Lin Daiyu often heard her father say that Zuo Lingtian was short of silver, so she glanced at Zuo Lingtian with a side face, and said softly: "One hundred taels of silver." ”
As soon as Lin Daiyu finished speaking, he saw Zuo Lingtian take Lin Daiyu's little hand and walk out without thinking, muttering as he walked: "Let's go, you can't eat here, why don't you grab a hundred taels, the money I have worked hard to save for five years to marry a daughter-in-law is only a thousand taels, and eating at that time is like eating gold."
Lin Daiyu didn't react, she was pulled by Zuo Lingtian and staggered, and when she heard Zuo Lingtian's muttering, before she could say anything, she saw a group of boys and brothers walking around the corner surrounded by a young man wearing a brocade dress with dark circles under his eyes.
"Hehe, Zhang Gongzi, you see it's really unfortunate that you ran into this thing here again today."
"I don't have money and I brought the girl here, I really think that anyone in Yuyanfang can come to the place."
"Yes, no wonder I smelled a sour smell as soon as I came in, and I said what it was, it turned out to be poor and sour."
"Alas, Li Gongzi, what you said is not right, you are a poor and sour person, you look at him and simply exalt him."
"Yes, yes, I'm superficial."
"Hahaha."
A group of salt merchant's sons and brothers gathered around Zhang Dingding, who had been beaten unconscious by Zuo Lingtian before, and laughed at Zuo Lingtian vigorously.
Why? It was pure for the sake of venting evil spirits.
Zuo Lingtian's commotion made the salt merchants in Yangzhou noisy, and the salt merchants even copied the family law one by one after returning home from the yamen, and made these Yangzhou salt merchants' sons and brothers miserable.
Let's ask from childhood to adulthood, who of Yangzhou's sons and buddies has suffered such grievances, he has no way to retaliate, and he can only shift the target to Zuo Lingtian.
But Zuo Lingtian's force they have seen with their own eyes, Xiao Qingxuan's guard masters can't beat it, and they also go up to deliver food by themselves, and now they are not ruthless when they seize the opportunity.
Zhang Dingding, who was the center, also wanted to laugh immediately, but when he glanced at Lin Daiyu behind Zuo Lingtian, he immediately made a humble and gentlemanly appearance:
"This girl, my father Zhang Erhe, I don't know if I have the honor to invite you to visit this Yuyanfang together."
The sons and brothers on the side saw that Zhang Dingding was interested, and they also noticed Lin Daiyu, and immediately became a wingman.
"Isn't this the daughter of the Lin family?"
"Miss Lin, what a coincidence, I heard that you worship Xiao Cainu as a teacher, Zhang Gongzi is Xiao Cainu's nephew, so he should be close and close."
"Yes..... Yes! ”
Before the other could finish speaking, he fell into the distance with a parabola with a scream.
Zuo Lingtian rubbed his slap very annoyedly, frowned, and said:
"Don't get in my way here, I didn't get enough of it last time, right, get out of the way."
A group of boys and brothers were dumbfounded, how can this person say that he will do it, why is he unreasonable? Don't you know if a gentleman does something or not?
Brother Gongzi, who was called Li Gongzi, helped him up, and the person who was stunned by Zuo Lingtian was very dissatisfied: "Being so rude, it's just a reckless man, Zhang Gongzi, please uphold justice." ”
Zuo Lingtian was already unhappy, where is Yuyanfang, spend a few hundred taels for a meal, don't you think you are a fool? Now there are still people looking for trouble in front of them, and if they want to die, they will jump into the river directly.
After Li Gongzi finished speaking, Zuo Lingtian set his eyes on Zhang Dingding.
