Chapter 19 Visit
"Huh?"
As soon as Ji Yanzhou and the second master of the Lin family walked into the garden to enjoy the scenery, they heard the sound of "popping" porcelain breaking from the west wing. Frightened, the koi in the pond flicked its tail and hid under the lotus leaf.
"What is this?"
Ji Yanzhou glanced at the direction of the sound from a distance, and an imperceptible smile flashed in his eyes. He wore a jade crown today, wore a black brocade robe with silver edges, and took a folding fan in his hand for the first time, with his thin figure, he couldn't tell that he was a military general, but like a pampered and graceful son.
The second master of the Lin family looked at him there, his face turned pale, and then he smiled: "It's nothing, it's just that a few days ago, I got a raccoon slave with sparse fur, and I just brought it back, and it was wild and untamable, but it disturbed the little general." ”
"It turned out to be a cat." Ji Yanzhou couldn't hide the smile on his lips, and glanced at the west wing room again before slowly moving his gaze back, and said word by word: "That must be a nimble and elusive cat." ”
Second Master Lin didn't know why Ji Yanzhou said this, so he had to respond: "Yes...... Be. ”
The fan in his hand knocked on his chin, Ji Yanzhou seemed to be very interested, and asked again: "I only know that cats have always been well-behaved, but I don't know where Second Master Lin found this cat?" It's a big temper. ”
"It's just an accidental gain in the countryside, which makes the little general smile." Second Master Lin smiled, only hoping to take this uninvited guest away as soon as possible, so that he could continue to pay attention to the West Wing, "The little general, please." ”
"Second Master Lin, please." Ji Yanzhou bowed slightly, but he didn't continue to be embarrassed.
Second Master Lin led Ji Yanzhou to the flower hall, and after ordering the maid to serve tea and snacks, he looked at Ji Yanzhou's expression and asked cautiously: "The little general came to the cold house, and it was just ...... I don't know what General Lao is driving? ”
Although the Lin family is an imperial businessman, the family has a solid background, his niece is a noble concubine, and the eldest brother in charge of the family has also been in Beijing for many years, and he also has some connections in Beijing, and the ordinary officials of the Lin family do not pay much attention to it. But like the Ji family, a family of generals who hold military power, the Lin family does not dare to provoke easily.
Therefore, for Ji Yanzhou's sudden visit, the second master of the Lin family was surprised and frightened, and even faintly excited.
If you can make friends with the Ji family, then the Lin family really has nothing to fear except for the royal family.
Thinking of this, the smile on Second Master Lin's face couldn't help but be a little flattering.
Ji Yanzhou silently looked at the expression on Second Master Lin's face, and his face was still light, and he unfolded the folding fan and shook it lightly: "It's not important." It's just that the army has been stationed for a long time, the supplies in the army are a bit monotonous, and now it's the spring equinox, come out and take a look, and see what seasonal fruits and vegetables can be bought back for the brothers to change the taste. ”
"I have heard the reputation of the Lin family for a long time, if you don't come to visit Yixi, it will be unreasonable for the younger generation." Ji Yanzhou said, stood up and bowed to Second Master Lin, and even made a gesture to bend down and bow.
"Eh, I can't help it!" Second Master Lin hurriedly stepped forward to support Ji Yanzhou, stopped him from bending down, and said in panic: "The Ji family's military generals are the ministers of my Dai Guo!" The little general is a general, how can there be a reason for a merchant like me to salute! ”
"Xuanjia cavalry protects the peace of the people, and the soldiers just want to eat some fruits and vegetables, how can there be any reason for the little general to work personally?" Second Master Lin said humbly: "In a few days, I will send fresh melons, fruits and vegetables to the Xuanjia Riding Camp." ”
Ji Yanzhou's face was incredulous: "How can you bother Second Master Lin!" ”
"You can't say that! It is really an honor for my Lin family to be able to relieve the worries of all the soldiers! ”
"This ......" Ji Yanzhou seemed to be embarrassed to think for a long time, and said: "Since Second Master Lin has said so, if Ji Mou refuses again, he will not know how to raise it." In this way, Ji Yanzhou thanked the Lin family for his generosity! ”
The two complimented each other a few more words, and just when the atmosphere was harmonious, Ji Yanzhou raised his eyes and looked at the courtyard, and suddenly said: "As soon as I entered the mansion today, I saw that everyone was very busy, is there anything important in the mansion of Second Master Lin?" ”
Second Master Lin smiled a few times with some embarrassment and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that I have a concubine to enter the door tomorrow, so I'll be a little prepared in the next few days." ”
"In this way, I want to congratulate the second master." Ji Yanzhou smiled and accepted the fan, "I don't know if Ji has the honor to ask for a cup of wine?" ”
"Nature, Nature!" Second Master Lin nodded hurriedly, "It's best for the little general to be willing to appreciate his face!" ”
"Then tomorrow, Ji will prepare a generous gift and come to congratulate the second master on his beauty." Ji Yanzhou clenched his fists, his eyes flashing.
