After recognizing the four younger brothers, Zhao Yao, as the boss, naturally wanted to invite them to a meal to shorten the distance between them.

Zhao Yao invited Chu Huan and the four of them to eat hot pot in Zhenyu Building. Since the hot pot was made out by Zhao Yao, it has become popular among the people. In order to attract customers, the major restaurants in the capital will launch new hot pots every once in a while.

Chu Huan and the four of them like to eat hot pot very much. The hot pot of Zhenyulou is famous throughout the capital, and the four of them also like to come to Zhenyulou to eat hot pot, but they don't have so much money, so it is impossible to come to Zhenyulou to eat hot pot every day.

The hot pot was made by Zhao Yao, and he is an expert in eating hot pot. The sauce he made was a must. He personally served the sauce for Chu Huan and the four of them, which instantly captured their hearts.

Zhang He and they like to drink, and Zhao Yao generously ordered them the best wine in Zhenyulou.

When eating hot pot, everyone talked and laughed, and soon became familiar with each other.

Zhao Yao may not be very good in other aspects, but in terms of food, he is very good, and he told Zhang He a lot of things about food.

Chu Huan and the four of them also like to eat delicious food, and after listening to what Zhao Yao said, they became even more greedy, so they ate more hot pot.

The four of them also told Zhao Yao a lot of interesting things. Of course, most of them are boasting about their "prestige" in the West Market. Zhao Yao was very considerate and did not demolish them, and cooperated with them very much, praising them from time to time.

"Boss, we don't know your identity yet." Shen Sen and the four of them now shouted "boss" very smoothly, without any reluctance.

"yes, boss, what do you do?" Zhang He also asked curiously.

"My family is just an ordinary businessman, without any power." Zhao Yao deliberately teased Zhang He and the four of them, "You won't underestimate me because my family background is inferior to you, right?" ”

"Of course not, we're not like that." Zhang He's expression suddenly became very serious, "We never look at people by family background. ”

Shen Sen nodded again and again: "We hate people who use their family background to bully others, so we won't be this kind of person." ”

Listening to Shen Sen's words, Zhao Yao smiled in his heart: I don't know who moved out of their father last night, and the general came to threaten him.

Of course, as a good boss, he will not turn over old accounts and dismantle the four younger brothers.

Song Jicai said while eating chicken wings: "We never rely on family in Xishi. ”

Zhao Yao: "......" Fat man, don't you say this?

Chu Huan put down the tea cup in his hand and said to Zhao Yao with a solemn expression: "You are already our boss, and we will not look down on you just because you are the son of a merchant." ”

Zhang He nodded and said in agreement: "Yes, looking down on you as the boss doesn't mean looking down on ourselves." ”

Shen Sen asked curiously, "Boss, what kind of business does your family have?" ”

"Do a little bit of business." Zhao Yao didn't plan to confess his identity to Chu Huan and the four of them for the time being, for fear of scaring them away. Although he, the tenth prince, is not very favored, the father of the four of them never supports any prince. If they knew that their youngest son was getting close to the Ten Princes, they would definitely stop it. "It's not very big, and it's no problem to feed a family."

Chu Huan felt that Zhao Yao didn't tell the truth, but he didn't have evidence, so he didn't ask any further.

"Your family doesn't object to you associating with merchants, do they?" Zhao Yao asked.

"No objection, as long as we don't do nonsense, our family won't care about us." When Shen Sen said this, there was a sense of loss in his tone that he had never noticed.

"Our family never cares about us." Zhang He didn't think there was anything wrong with this. If the family disciplines him like a brother and asks him to learn this and that, he will definitely go crazy.

"As long as we don't get into trouble, we won't care about them at home." Song Jicai had a smug smile on his face, "You see we can go wherever we want, do whatever we want, and don't study if we don't want to." ”

After listening to Song Jicai's words, Zhao Yao was extremely envious. He also didn't want to study.

Chu Huan said: "Our family rarely cares about us. ”

"That's great, I want to be like you guys and not be managed, but unfortunately not." Zhao Yao said with a bitter face, "I have to read every morning and learn other things in the afternoon, and I only have one day off a month." This time, it was because of something that my father allowed me to take a few more days off. ”

Hearing Zhao Yao's words, Zhang He and the others looked at Zhao Yao with sympathetic eyes.

"Boss, you're really miserable."

"The daily reading club killed us."

"If I were to read every day, and I would be crazy if I read those things."

"I'd rather practice archery every day." Although Chu Huan was the smartest and most stable of the four, he didn't like to read either.

"I'm the youngest son like you, but I'm not as good as you, and I hope my father doesn't care about me." In the future, he will only be a lazy prince, as long as he can read and write, he doesn't need to be knowledgeable, why do he have to go to study every day.

Zhang He and the others were very happy when they saw Zhao Yao's envious eyes.

"Boss, you can learn from us, we used to be angry when we were studying, and then all the gentlemen in the capital were unwilling to teach us, so our parents no longer forced us to study."

"Boss, we can help you come up with ideas to make you angry with your husband."

"Boss, we are very experienced in this area."

"I'd like to be angry with Mr., but I don't have the guts." Zhao Yao wrinkled a delicate little face and said, "My father is very fierce and very bad, as long as we don't read honestly, we will be beaten or punished for copying books." ”

"Playing the board?" When it came to playing the board, Zhang He felt that his butt hurt a little. They used to be often boarded.

"yes, open your ass and flower that." Zhao Yao said, sighing heavily, "Not long ago, I was punished by my father for copying the Analects a hundred times, and I must copy it by myself, others can't help me copy it, and not a word is missing." My father would carefully check every word I copied, and if I found that I had copied less, he would punish me for copying a hundred times. ”

Although Shen Sen and the others don't like to read, they have also read the Analects and know that there are many words in a copy of the Analects. Hearing Zhao Yao say that he had copied the Analects a hundred times, they all showed frightened looks.

"Boss, your father...... It's terrifying! ”

"Boss, you're miserable."

"Punished a hundred times...... I just copied one piece of content and I couldn't stand it. ”

Chu Huan looked at Zhao Yao with great pity: "Boss, you are too pitiful. ”

"My dad is the devil." Zhao Yao couldn't help but pour bitter water with his four younger brothers.

After hearing this, Chu Huan and the four of them were very sympathetic to their boss, and they also agreed with their boss's words very much, their boss's father was really a devil.

Compared to the eldest father, their father is really a benevolent bodhisattva! They don't blame their dad for being them anymore.

Chu Huan and the others talked to Zhao Yao about the interesting places and interesting things in the capital. The four of them wander the streets every day, and they still know a lot about what is happening in the capital.

Zhao Yao suddenly thought of the matter of Pei's Mansion, and asked casually, "Have you been to Pei's Mansion?" ”

"Pei Mansion, which Pei Mansion?" Zhang He: They didn't think about it for a while.

Chu Huan thought about it, and his face changed instantly.

"Is that the ghost house Pei Mansion?"

"yes, have you been?"

Zhang He shook his head in unison: "No." ”

"It's a haunted house, often haunted, who dares to go."

"Boss, have you been there?"

Zhao Yao said calmly: "I've been there." ”

"What?" Song Jicai and the others let out an exclamation in unison.

"Boss, have you really been?"

"Boss, you're not going to lie to us, are you?"

"What did I lie to you, I really been."

"Boss, have you ever seen a ghost?"

Zhang He said with a frightened face: "I heard that there are a lot of ghosts in there, and the sound of ghosts crying will come from the third watch in the middle of the night." ”

"It's a gloomy place during the day, and even more so at night."

"I've heard that people who have been to the haunted mansion come back either crazy, or they are inexplicably sick and dying, or they suddenly bleed to death." Song Jicai looked Zhao Yao up and down, and said in surprise, "Boss, you're not dead!" “

"Boss, have you been sick since you came out?"

"No, nothing happened to me." Zhao Yao said again, "I'll go during the day." ”

"Boss, isn't it scary inside?"

"It's very dilapidated inside, and it's gloomy, and the faint-hearted will indeed be scared when they go in." Zhao Yao asked, "Do you know what happened in Pei Mansion before?" ”

Chu Huan and the four of them shook their heads: "We only know that it used to be Pei Guifei's maiden family, but it was beheaded by the whole house in the previous dynasty, so Pei's mansion became a ghost house." ”

"Haven't you heard anything else?"

"Nope."

Chu Huan asked, "Boss, why do you say that?" ”

"I think there should be other stories in Pei's house." The second uncle has been inquiring about Pei's mansion all along, but he has not found any useful news.

What secrets are hidden in Pei's mansion, let Han Zhong of Shu send someone to the capital to search before.
