While talking, the two had already gone downstairs, and Gu Xi giggled as soon as he saw Yu Huai, "Who am I, it turns out to be Yu Guangxia!" The day before yesterday, Chen Dingsheng came to me and pretended to be an old man, and you came today and pretended to be a fat businessman, aren't you imitating "Water Margin"? ”

Yu Huai sighed helplessly, and then said indignantly, "Huh...... There is a mad dog in Nandu that comes out to bite people at every turn, and I have to guard against it! ”

Gu Xi giggled again, and when he was done laughing, he shouted inside, "Ning Ning, take Mr. to wash his face." ”

A little maid soon appeared in the back hall, Yu Huai followed her in to wash her face, took off the full set of disguises, and Gu Xicai introduced Zheng Sen to him, "Mr. Guangxia, this Quanzhou Zheng Damu is the initiator of this ring, and he is also your fellow countryman." ”

Zheng Sen saw that he had changed from a greasy middle-aged uncle to a handsome young man, so he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Zheng Sen in Xia Quanzhou, the word is clear, the name is Damu, and Chongzhen has been studying for eleven years." I heard your name more in Quanzhou, and I finally saw it today, which is really a blessing, a blessing! ”

Yu Huai returned the salute, "You will go to school for six years in the morning." ”

Zheng Sen hurriedly changed his words, "It turned out to be Brother Shi." ”

This is a complete set of etiquette for literati to meet, the so-called "study" refers to the examination of Xiucai, Yu Huai is Chongzhen's five-year Xiucai, six years earlier than Zheng Sen, so he is the world's brother, and Zheng Sen is naturally the younger brother, this is a qualification, and it must not be messed up.

After talking about going to school for a while, Yu Huai heard that he was also from Fujian, and immediately rejoiced, "Ah, it's really a hometown, it's really a blessing." ”

Zheng Sen echoed a few words and immediately showed regret, "When my brother entered the examination room, my brother was still studying hard behind closed doors, and when my brother entered the examination room, my brother had already gone to Nanzhong to study, after all, it was a pity!" ”

The two talked about family affairs for a while, and Yu Huai learned that he was the eldest son of Zheng Zhilong, the general soldier of Fujian, and he was not as enthusiastic as before. Zheng Zhilong's name is thunderous throughout the southeast, he not only protects the peace of the southeast sea frontier, but also takes great care of the township, rescues the old, weak and poor, and has a good reputation among the people, but his history is not very square after all, so people like Yu Huai are not very fond of him, even if he has made great contributions to the imperial court, they have always regarded him as a pirate. Zheng Sen, as his successor, even though he received the purest Confucian education since he was a child, and now he has a reputation and is now polite, it is still difficult for him to integrate into their circle.

Zheng Sen saw his reaction in his eyes, and didn't care, but said with a smile, "It's really a blessing to see Brother Guangxia today, please take a seat inside, I'm new to here, and I will definitely talk to you with a candle." ”

Hearing that he was going to talk to himself about the evening, Yu Huai looked up at the sky and found that it was not yet noon, and he was a little entangled, "It is really a great fate to meet Xiangzi in Nanzhong, but it is very unfortunate, there are still important things to do, I am afraid I can't stay here." ”

Zheng Sen's face changed, but he quickly returned to normal, took his hand and said, "Brother, how busy!" It's noon now, why don't you have lunch and then do what he thinks? ”

Yu Huai felt very uncomfortable when Zheng Sen held his hand, and struggled hard, but he didn't break free, so he had to say helplessly, "Brother Xian wants to stay, Brother Fool shouldn't have refused, but I really have something important to do, so I don't dare to stay!" ”

was rejected repeatedly, Zheng Sen was a little angry, and said in his heart, why are you so ignorant, this son invited you to visit the Qinglou for free, you are still unwilling, if you were in Fujian, I would have thrown you into the sea to feed the fish.

Yu Huai was grabbed by Zheng Sen's arm, neither advancing nor retreating, it didn't take long for his face to become very ugly, he was about to get angry, Gu Xi finally spoke, "Mr. Yu, you haven't been here in the slave family for a long time, this time you have to stay for a while anyway, even if you have a meal, it will make the little woman happy for half a month." ”

Yu Huai has been lingering in Qinhuai's old courtyard for many years, so he naturally knows Gu Xi's status, and seeing that she has already come up to help her in person, and the time is indeed not early, he has to reluctantly obey.

Zheng Sen saw that he finally stayed, but there was not much joy on his face, as soon as Gu Xi opened his mouth, he stayed, and he was almost kidnapped, he still refused to give in, the gap between the two was too big, he felt very angry when he thought of this, is he not as good as a woman in a green house?

Picking up the teacup and taking a sip lightly, Zheng Sen turned his gaze to Gu Xi, "I don't know what fresh dishes are available at noon?" ”

Gu Xi smiled bitterly, "The slave family is a delicacy here, but I heard that Jixian Mansion has recently launched a few new dishes, and the taste is very unique, I have sent someone to make a reservation, and it will be delivered soon." ”

Zheng Sen was overjoyed to hear this, "Well, good, good!" When Brother Guangxia and I met for the first time, we naturally wanted to entertain me with new dishes, which was also different! ”

Gu Xi hurriedly nodded and agreed, and said that the old lady made a lot of money this time, and Jixianlou didn't know where to get a secret recipe, the taste of the dishes has risen a lot, and the price has risen several times, and there is a lot of oil and water in it.

Zheng Sen and Gu Xi smiled, but Yu Huai couldn't say anything, and said in his heart, did you have a guest like you? What is the point of keeping customers like you, even if you eat dragon liver and phoenix gall?

...... A pirate is a pirate, and even if he has fame, he is still a pirate!

After drinking a cup of tea together, Gu Xi smiled and proposed, "Mr. Yu has a couplet, and there is one less one here, so please also make a couplet, how about it?" ”

Yu Huai asked puzzled, "Why is this?" ”

Gu Xi grinned, pointed at Zheng Sen and said, "Zheng Xianggong wanted to engrave a collection of the world's famous associations, so he came up with this strategy to solicit the world's famous associations." ”

Yu Huai was stunned when he heard this, glanced at Zheng Sen who was sitting still, and said in his heart, Are you burning in a panic because you have too much money? Since you are so rich, can you just give it to me yourself? I can't do anything else, I can spend money, even if you earn you a lot of money, I can still help you lose everything!

Thinking of this, he smiled, "It is said that there are four monsters in Jiangnan celebrities - take him a number, take him in a sedan chair, ask him a little, engrave him a draft, do you want to engrave a manuscript for Brother Da Mu?" ”

Zheng Sen laughed, which was a tacit acquiescence.

Yu Huai smiled again, "I've seen those who carved the Shiwen, the sketches, and the travelogues, and it's the first time I've seen someone like Da Mudi who carved a couplet collection." ”

Zheng Sen said unashamedly, "Please also ask Brother Guangxia for more help." ”

Yu Huaixin said that you really have too much money to burn, since you have so much money that you have nowhere to spend it, then I will help you spend some, thinking of this, he got up and wrote a couplet and handed it over.

Gu Xi took it and took a look, and saw that it was written, "Six Dynasties Gold Powder, Ten Miles of Sheng Song, Skirt Clogs in the Past Years, the most unforgettable Beihai pride, West Garden Elegance; Nine songs and clear waves, a curtain of dream shadows, the building is still good, and it is affected by the silk and bamboo of Dongshan and the fireworks in the south. ”

I couldn't help but rejoice, "Good union, really good union!" ”

Yu Huai put down his pen and said with a smile, "The couplet poems are all small paths, what is the way?" ”

Gu Xi instructed the turtle slave to hang up his upper couplet, and Yu Huai saw that he couldn't wait for a long time and wanted to get up and leave again, but where she was willing to let go, she called two little girls in her building out to play with him to spend time.

Yu Huai has been in the flowers for a long time, he is a lazy character, and since the beauty has entered him, he just resists a little and never mentions "I still have something".

After laughing with the two girls, it was time for lunch, and as soon as Yu Huai sat down, he saw a young man appear in front of him, and bowed his hand and said, "Brother Guangxia, I am under the money Sun Ai, the word is delicious, can I invite you to drink together?" ”

I heard that he was Qian Sun Ai, Yu Huai was overjoyed, he had long wanted to worship under Qian Qianyi, and today he met his only son, and he had to make friends no matter what, so he got up and said with a smile, "I have heard the name of Ru Yu for a long time, and I will finally see it today, fortunately, fortunately!" ”
