After Xiao Fan came out of the ready-to-wear shop, he found a silk and satin shop and bought a few pieces of cloth, and then asked Jia San to take Jia Quan and Xiaozhao back first.

He himself was going to Wanhualou to have a look and inquire about some news.

He learned that Wanhualou is the most famous restaurant in Qiantang, where there are all kinds of characters from the three religions and nine streams from the south to the north, and the news of the running hall and the shopkeeper inside should be very well-informed.

Xiao Fan always felt that Zhao Paner and himself were about to leave, so he asked Sun Sanniang if Zhao Paner had anything unspeakable.

Sun Sanniang looked like she wanted to say something at the time, but in the end she didn't tell Xiao Fan, just said that she needed Pan'er to untie the knot by herself.

Xiao Fan used to feel that it was not good for him to inquire about the secret of a woman behind his back, but now he feels uncomfortable when he looks at Zhao Paner.

Obviously, the two of them are interested in each other, every time Zhao Paner is obviously tempted, but every time she pours cold water at a critical moment.

Xiao Fan was walking on the way to Wanhualou.

Suddenly, I heard an exclamation from behind me: "Get out of the way!" Hurry up! The horse is frightened! Hurry up! ”

Xiao Fan looked back, and sure enough, he saw a carriage in front of him running wildly on the road, and the coachman was yelling while trying to restrain the startled horse.

But it was clear that the horse didn't want to listen to him.

At this moment, Xiao Fan saw a woman standing motionless in the middle of the road, obviously stunned.

Xiao Fan hurriedly rushed over and grabbed the woman's hand directly, and then pulled her to the side of the road with a forceful pull.

The woman was pulled by Xiao Fan, and her center of gravity was unstable and she fell to the side of the road. Fortunately, his hand was still pulled by Xiao Fan, so he didn't roll out.

Xiao Fan glanced at the woman on the ground, and saw that she was about seventeen or eighteen years old, looking at herself with dull eyes, she looked quite beautiful, but she didn't seem to be very smart.

Xiao Fan saw that she was fine, so he couldn't care much, and saw that the woman quickly let go of her hand and went directly to chase the runaway carriage.

In the exclamations of passers-by, Xiao Fan flew directly to the back of the startled horse, snatched the reins from the coachman's hand and pulled them fiercely.

The startled horse's head was pulled to the side and could not move, so it had to slow down and finally stop.

Xiao Fan turned over and dismounted and handed the reins to the coachman, calmed the panicked coachman and told him to pay attention to safety in the future, and turned away amid the coachman's continuous apologies and gratitude.

On the way, everyone first saw Xiao Fan flying onto the horse, and then quickly subdued the startled horse. directly shocked Xiao Fan, and all applauded Xiao Fan's ability.

After thanking the crowd for their praise, Xiao Fan walked out of the crowd and walked towards Wanhualou.

"This official, please stay!" After Song Yinzhang saw Xiao Fan walking out of the crowd, he stepped forward to stop Xiao Fan with the support of the maid's silver bottle.

Xiao Fan heard someone calling him behind him, turned his head suspiciously, and saw two women standing behind him. Turning to look at the woman who had been saved by himself before, he said with a smile: "Oh! It's you! What's the matter? ”

He saluted and thanked him: "The little woman Song Yinzhang is the pipa player of Hangzhou Le Ying, thank you for the help of the officials today, and dare to ask the officials with their high names." ”

"In Xia Xiao Fan, there is no need to thank you for your efforts." Xiao Fan bowed his hand and saluted back.

Seeing Xiao Fan's reaction, Song Yinzhang was excited: "How can this be a gesture?" Today, this horse is frightened, if it weren't for the help of Xiao Guanren, the little woman is afraid that she would have died long ago. ”

"Mrs. Song is serious, do you have anything else?" Xiao Fan asked.

It's just that he saved someone, and there was no accident, and he hurried to Wanhualou.

"Where are Xiao Guanren going? And where do you live? Another day, the chapter will come to the door to thank you! ”

Xiao Fan just wanted to leave as soon as possible now, and he was too lazy to continue to pull on, so he said impatiently: "My family lives at the mouth of Tsing Yi Lane, and now I have to rush to Wanhualou, and Song Niangzi will leave first if she is fine!" ”

The maid next to her exclaimed, "Tsing Yi Lane? It seems to be where Mrs. Zhao lives! ”

"Huh?" Xiao Fan looked at the maid beside Song Yinzhang with curious eyes.

Song Yinzhang saw that Xiao Fan seemed to be interested, so he hurriedly said: "I have a sister named Zhao Paner, who is a famous tea seller in Qiantang. also lives in Tsing Yi Lane, I don't know if Xiao Guanren knows? ”

"Mrs. Zhao is your sister?" Xiao Fan said with interest.

"Well, we've known each other since we were young, and she treats me like a sister." Song Yinzhang seemed to think of something, and said: "Xiao Guanren is also going to Wanhualou?" ”

"Eh," although Xiao Fan still wanted Song Yinzhang to talk about Zhao Paner, he thought about it and said, "Well, I did have this plan before." ”

Xiao Fan thought in his heart that he wanted to go to Wanhualou in order to inquire about Zhao Paner's information, but now that Song Yinzhang is here, what else is Wanhualou going to, just ask her directly.

"That's right, we're also going to Wanhualou, and the shopkeeper of Wanhualou invited me to perform tonight!" Song Yinzhang said happily: "Xiao Guanren, do you want to go together in our carriage?" Our carriage was right in front. ”

Xiao Fan had the heart to ask Song Yinzhang about Zhao Paner's news, so he had to agree to Song Yinzhang's invitation, so he got into her carriage with Song Yinzhang.

"Xiao Guanren, do you know how scared I was just now? I was so scared that I couldn't move, but luckily you saved me! ”

"Xiao Guanren, when you subdued the startled horse just now, you were so powerful, it was like a god descending from the heavens!"

"Xiao Guanren, why are you so powerful? Fly so high, and your strength is so great, you can't even move the horse! ”

"Xiao Guanren ......"

Xiao Fan already regretted getting into Song Yinzhang's car a little, this girl seemed to have worshiped herself too much because she saved him.

And Xiao Fan didn't expect her to be able to say so much, she has been talking non-stop since she got in the car, she can't interject at all, and it's not easy to interrupt her, so she can only keep coping with her words.

Song Yinzhang felt that Xiao Fan didn't seem to be very interested in his words, so he said, "Xiao Guanren, you haven't heard my pipa yet, have you?" How about I play you a song "Ming Concubine Song"? This is what I do best! ”

The reason why Song Yinzhang proposed to play the pipa is because although she is only eighteen years old, her pipa skills have long been famous in Jiangnan, although she is not yet the first pipa player in Jiangnan, but she is also one of the best masters.

Therefore, Song Yinzhang felt that if he let himself play a song, Xiao Guanren would definitely be interested and introduce himself as a confidant.

"Eh, didn't you just say that you would play in Wanhualou later? It's better to save your energy to the performances that are waiting for you. Xiao Fan refused.

"It's okay, don't worry, just play a tune, as long as Xiao Guanren likes it!" Song Yinzhang insisted.

"You see, if you don't do this, didn't you Zhao Niangzi be your sister before?" Xiao Fan changed the topic and said: "Not long after I moved here, I am also a neighbor with Mrs. Zhao, and I have been to Zhao's tea shop a few times before, and I admire her very much for being a weak woman to open such a big tea shop." Can you tell me about her? ”

"Xiao Guanren, why are you asking my sister about it?" Song Yinzhang was strange.

"Oh, aren't she neighbors? Wouldn't it be helpful for neighbors to get to know each other better? ”

"Yes," Song Yinzhang expressed his understanding, and then said: "Sister Pan'er is good to me, she has protected me since she was a child, and she thinks about me first when she has anything to eat, drink and play, but Sister Pan'er herself is actually very pitiful......"

"Song Niangzi, we're here!" At this time, the words from the coachman outside the carriage interrupted Song Yinzhang.
