In the small garden of Luomei, Ke Peiling is burning incense and stroking the piano, leisurely. The man who appeared with her that day hurriedly walked over, and when he saw Ke Peiling playing the qin, he stopped and stood aside and waited silently.

At the end of the song, Ke Peiling's slender jade fingers pressed on the strings, lightly opened her red lips, and asked, "Is there any news?" Wan Yuxuan said: "The intelligence came to report just now, saying that Xu Fuzi has arrived in the garden. "This man's name is Wan Yuxuan, he is Ke Peiling's father-in-law outside, but he is Ke Peiling's housekeeper in the garden, and he is in charge of the news channel of Luomei Xiaoyuan for Ke Peiling.

Ke Peiling nodded,

"There is still an hour before the poetry meeting starts, Xu Fuzi arrived early, it seems that he wants to meet Dong Fuzi first, you go and arrange it." Wan Yuxuan snorted, but did not leave.

Ke Peiling raised her head,

"Anything else?" Wan Yuxuan said: "According to the spies, Master Xu encountered a small incident when he came. Ke Peiling asked, "What's the matter?" Wan Yuxuan told Xu Yanghui about Xu Yanghui's forgiveness of Ji Kai'an on the street, and said: "That Ji Kai'an is the person from half of the door, that is, the place called jade meat last time we went to eat." Ke Peiling sighed,

"And such a thing? Xu Fuzi's move must be a beautiful talk. Then he thought of something, and said, "In this way, doesn't it make that half of the door famous?" I'm afraid that there will be a lot of talented and beautiful people going to eat in that place in the future. Wan Yuxuan said: "Now if you want to go there to eat, I'm afraid it's not easy, I heard that they only make twenty tables a day, and if they go late, they won't be there, and even the city lord's daughter didn't eat late a few days ago, and finally left in a hurry." After the news spread, it attracted a lot of people to see it, and they all wanted to see what it was that would make the city lord's daughter so out of shape. Then again, official, are we the first to eat that thing? Ke Peiling nodded,

"That's a good thing, and after I ate it, I didn't think it was to my liking these days. That's why I asked you to order a hundred servings and try them again in the evening, and by the way, let those talented people try them too. There are many shabby scholars among them, how can they afford to eat this, and today is just the right time for them to taste it. Wan Yuxuan said: "The official family has a heart, and those scholars will definitely thank the official family." Ke Peiling shook her head and said: "In their eyes, I am just a dusty woman, they may not be able to afford me, so there is no need to thank me, as long as you scold me a few words behind your back." "Ke Peiling, as a broker in Sioux City, ushered in the send-off, walking among those powerful people, her reputation will naturally not be good.

And those who read books, they have nothing to do on weekdays, but they like to point fingers at these things, and many people also write poems and lyrics to ridicule, and they are full of disdain and contempt for Ke Peiling openly and secretly.

Wan Yuxuan was dissatisfied: "Those scholars will compose a few sour poems, and they can't make any tricks." If it weren't for the fact that the official family was a woman, otherwise the entrance examination might not be worse than theirs. Ke Peiling shook her head,

"I just have a little ink, it's okay to read and write, but if you want to talk about the exam, it will be too difficult for me." Wan Yuxuan said: "Official, you are too modest in what you say, I heard that the scholars have praised you, and even said that your calligraphy has a majestic momentum, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people." I see that those scholars are dissatisfied with you, and they are probably jealous of you. Ke Peiling was noncommittal about this and didn't say much.

Her handwriting is indeed a must, her pen is vigorous and powerful, majestic and magnificent, and it is by no means comparable to ordinary people.

Thinking of Xu Fuzi, Ke Peiling asked, "By the way, you just said that Ji Kai'an is the person of half of the door?" Wan Yuxuan nodded.

Ke Peiling said: "Since Master Xu likes that wine, then you can go to Banbianmen and buy a jar back, no matter how much it costs." Wan Yuxuan shook his head and said, "I can't buy it." Ke Peiling was puzzled,

"Can't buy it?" Wan Yuxuan explained: "After that incident, many people followed Ji Kai'an to the half-side door, and they all wanted to buy a jar to go back. But the people at half of the door said that they only had this one jar of this wine, no, there should be two jars, but one jar was not broken. So the altar that Ji Kai'an was holding at that time should be the last altar. I can't sell it if I want to. Ke Peiling was surprised and felt pity,

"No wonder he didn't want to sell it at the time, it turned out that there was only one jar." Wan Yuxuan said: "I don't know who he wants to give his altar to, if you know, you can think of a way to see if you can buy it." Ke Peiling shook her head and said, "Since this kind of wine is scarce, the person who receives this wine will definitely not sell it easily." And because of Xu Fuzi's act of forgiving sins on the street, I am afraid that the people who get the wine will not sell it. "With a sigh,

"It seems that Master Xu's wish cannot be fulfilled for him." Between the words, there is a color of regret.

Xu Yanghui can be regarded as half of her teacher, and she has maintained her a lot in words in the past, so she misses the old gentleman's affection and wants to try her best to meet the old gentleman's wishes.

It was only when she heard that the jar of wine was going to be given away, and she knew that the chances were slim.

"Official, the people from half of the door are here." A guy ran over and said. Wan Yuxuan nodded and said, "The official family knows, you let him put down his things and leave." ”

"Yes." The little guy ran out, but after a while he ran back again,

"The official, the man didn't leave, saying that there was a gift for the official." Wan Yuxuan frowned,

"Gifts? What gift? The little guy said, "The man didn't say anything, he just carried a box in his hand." Wan Yuxuan looked at Ke Peiling and asked her how to deal with it.

Ke Peiling thought for a while and said, "Bring someone here." ”

"Yes." The little guy went. Wan Yuxuan said: "I don't know what the hell is going on, will there be fraud?" Ke Peiling said: "I will know if there is fraud for a while, this half of the door suddenly appeared, and I don't know who is sitting in the back." Wan Yuxuan said: "We have investigated, half of the door is Huo Ye's property, and it is Huo Ye's daughter Huo Conghan who is currently in charge, but these days we have found out that behind Huo Conghan, there seems to be an owner." Moreover, the third young master of the Long family has been intimate with them these days, and I don't know what the hell he is doing. Ke Peiling said: "Pay attention to it, and be sure to know who the owner behind it is." ”

"Hmm." While talking, I saw that the little guy came here with Ji Kai'an. Wan Yuxuan waved his hand, motioned for the little guy to leave, and then set his eyes on Ji Kai'an, and asked, "I heard that you have a gift for our official family?" Ji Kai'an nodded,

"Our owner said that in order to thank Ke Da for being the first to come out to support our business a few days ago, he specially sent a gift to Ke Da Da Da Jia." Wan Yuxuan asked, "What gift?" Take it out and take a look. ”

"Yes." Ji Kai'an bent down and was about to take out the contents of the box, but Wan Yuxuan stepped out and stopped directly in front of Ke Peiling, for fear of fraud.

But Ji Kai'an just took out the jar of wine in an orderly manner, and then handed it to Wan Yuxuan.

"Is it wine?" Wan Yuxuan glanced back, then looked at Ji Kai'an, seemed to think of something, and asked, "What's your name?" Ji Kai'an replied: "Little Ji Kai'an." Wan Yuxuan raised his eyebrows, and Ke Peiling also stretched her brows and looked over.

Wan Yuxuan said: "I heard that today you smashed a jar of wine on the street, and you also attracted Master Xu?" Ji Kai'an said: "The little one doesn't know Master Xu, but it's really because the little one was careless that he smashed a jar of wine." Wan Yuxuan also knew that Ji Kai'an was a small restaurant boy, how could he be honored to know Xu Fuzi, he didn't care about this stubble, he just asked: "I heard that you were holding two jars of wine at the time, one jar was broken, and the other jar was ......" Ji Kai'an pointed to the altar in his hand,

"That's it." Wan Yuxuan's breath stagnated, and at the last moment they were still discussing whether it was possible to get this jar of wine, and after learning that it was basically hopeless, this jar of wine was actually delivered to them.

"This ......" Wan Yuxuan didn't know what to say for a while, just looked back at Ke Peiling. Ke Peiling was also shocked and had already stood up from her seat,

"What you say is true? This is the rest of the altar? Ji Kai'an nodded,

"In heaven and on earth, there is only one altar, and this is it." Ke Peiling, who received an affirmative answer, had incredulity written on her face.

She couldn't believe that something she might not have been able to get after all the difficulties and obstacles had been delivered directly to her eyes.

This made her feel unrealistic, and she couldn't help but ask, "Why did you send me?" Ji Kai'an said: "It's the meaning of the owner, saying that it is to thank Ke Da for his original support." ”

"My support?" Ke Peiling was puzzled. Ji Kai'an explained: "The owner said that no one wanted to go in to eat on the day of the opening of the half door, it was Ke Da who was the first to go in and open this head, and then there were other guests, half of the door can now have such a good business, the owner said that Ke Da is a great help, it can be said that without Ke Da is in charge, half of the door would not be today, so ...... Ke Da is in charge, this is a piece of our host's heart. "This is too much, even if there is no Ke Peiling, half of the door's business will be good, this is determined by attributes, not by human will.

Ke Peiling looked at Wan Yuxuan, but she didn't expect that she was just looking at the novelty at that time, and she went in to eat casually, and it would have such an effect, which was really unexpected.

Wan Yuxuan asked curiously: "Little brother, inquire, who is your owner?" Ji Kai'an said: "We don't know. ”

"Don't know?" Ji Kai'an said: "The owner is the owner, he has always been mysterious, every time he talks to us, he turns his back to us, so we don't know who he is." "This is what Long Zhan taught him, in order to highlight the mystery of half the door, so as to attract more people.

Wan Yuxuan and Ke Peiling looked at each other, and they both felt the mystery of each other. But the more mysterious it is, the more curious it is.

Ke Peiling asked: "Your host gave me such a big gift, I want to thank him in person, I don't know if there is such an honor." "This is already putting my own figure very low, hoping that the other party will give face.

Ji Kai'an said: "I can't be the master of this matter, I will bring it back if Ke Da is in charge." Ke Peiling thought about it, too,

"Then it's troublesome." He glanced at Wan Yuxuan, who understood, and immediately took out a silver ingot from his arms and handed it over, it was fifty taels, a very high tip.

Ji Kai'an was flattered, and after saying thank you, he took it. Wan Yuxuan stretched out his hand and signaled that the other party could go.

But Ji Kai'an suddenly said again: "Ke Da is in charge, our host said, after the gift is sent, I hope Ke Da will do us a favor." Ke Peiling frowned, she just gave a gift, and she asked someone to do something?

Do you do that again? But since the things had already been collected, he didn't want to say anything, so he asked, "What do you want me to help with?" If it's too difficult, forgive me. "I don't dare to say too much, I really don't know what the other party wants to do.

Ji Kai'an said: "It's nothing, I just heard that Master Ke is going to the Poetry Club tonight, and our host also wants to go, but because there are important facts, I can't leave, so I want Master Ke to bring his poems in to those talented people to see how they are written." Our host said that he had not read any books, but he admired those who read very much, so he also wanted to be vassal, hoping that Ke Da would be in charge. Ke Peiling thought to herself what she thought it was, but she was afraid that it would not be safe enough, so she asked again: "Just bring the poem in?" Ji Kai'an nodded,

"It's best to show those Confucians, of course, if you really can't get into your eyes, you can also throw it away directly, so as not to dirty your eyes." This is said very lowly, showing a state of humility, which makes Ke Peiling mistakenly think that the thing written by the owner must be something like chaff and scum.

She was actually resistant in her heart, but if she heard that if she couldn't get into her eyes, she could throw it away. It seemed like a big deal.

"If that's all there is to it, then it's easy to do." Ji Kai'an arched his hand,

"Thank you." Then he took out a piece of paper from his arms and respectfully handed it to Ke Peiling. Ke Peiling didn't answer, it was Wan Yuxuan who answered.

After Ji Kai'an's mission was completed, he said: "The small things have been done, and I will retire first." ”

"I'll send you." Wan Yuxuan went out to see him off, and Ke Peiling also watched him leave.
