Chapter 12 The Wealthy

One

Tian Futang was carrying a bag of things in his hand, with a humble look of joy: "Brother Nan, where has this gone?" ”

Nanyun smiled: "Brother Tian, the junior brother is looking for you." "Turn over and dismount, and hand the reins to your retinue.

Nanyun stepped forward a few steps, grabbed Tian Xiucai's hand, and said with a smile: "Come on, there is the welcome building in front, let's go have a drink." ”

He turned to Steward Li and said, "You guys go back first, tell the old lady that I met a friend outside and want to go back later." ”

Steward Li nodded and left side by side with his entourage.

Tian Futang asked a little crampedly, "Not really, right?" It's getting late, the old lady and Ling Zheng, I'm afraid they will wait for Brother Nan. ”

Nanyun smiled: "It's okay. The younger brother has something to discuss with Brother Tian, and we will talk about it while drinking. ”

Tian Futang was a little flattered: "Brother Nan is not as good as in the past, he calls Bainuo, and his servants are like clouds." Xiaosheng is not talented, a poor Confucian, where can there be anything to help Brother Nan? ”

Nanyun smiled: "It's really because this time is different from the past, so I want your help." ”

The two walked into the "Welcome Building" while talking.

This "Welcome Building" is a famous restaurant in the capital, famous in the capital for its exquisite dishes. Ordinary people, dignitaries, three religions and nine streams, all of them are their guests.

The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him, with a smile on his face: "Guest officer, please come inside." Craving something to eat? ”

Nanyun waved his hand disdainfully: "The new dishes, just on it!" ”

The shopkeeper happily replied, "You're fine." ”

The two found a table by the window and sat down.

Soon, the shopkeeper sent four dishes and a pot of wine: "Guest officer, you use it first, and it will be the signature dish of the store in a while." ”

When Nanyun looked at it, he saw four side dishes, namely brine peanuts, pickled cucumbers, pig ears, and duck breasts. Although it is an ordinary side dish, it is full of color and flavor.

Nanyun beckoned Tian Futang: "Brother Tian, come, taste." ”

Tian Futang was a little restrained, picked up the chopsticks, and tasted it slightly.

"Brother Nan, what's the matter, but if you can use the little brother, the little brother will not dare to resign." Tian Futang said.

Nagumo poured Tian Futang a glass of wine.

Good fragrant Lanling Chen.

Nanyun unconsciously groaned: "Lanling wine tulips, jade bowl with amber light." But that the master may be drunk, and he will not know where it is. ”

Tian Futang praised: "Sure enough, good wine and good poetry!" ”

Nanyun kept silent and didn't talk about anything, just blindly added wine.

"How's it going at home?" Nagumo asked.

Tian Futang's face was ashamed: "Don't hide it from Brother Nan, it's a little reluctant." Recently, my child got sick and I just came back from taking medicine. If it weren't for Brother Nan's generous gift a few days ago, he would almost not be able to get by. ”

Nanyun sighed: "Poor couples mourn everything. The younger brother understands. The children taught by Brother Tai are still satisfied? ”

Tian Futang sighed: "It's just to make ends meet." ”

Nanyun said: "The younger brother and Brother Tian used to share hardships, and now, they should help each other." A little brother's shop, lacking a bookkeeper, I don't know, is Brother Tian willing to give in? ”

Tian Futang was overjoyed: "Brother Nan is kind and thoughtful, and I am grateful. ”

Nanyun said with a smile: "As for the salary, the younger brother will definitely not treat the younger brother lightly." But don't worry. ”

Tian Futang was a little excited, poured a glass of wine, and offered it with both hands: "Little brother borrows flowers to offer Buddha, and I salute Brother Nan with a cup." ”

Nanyun took the wine and smiled meaningfully: "Brother Tai is in the shop, you have to keep more thoughts for me." ”

Tian Futang was slightly stunned.

Nagumo's meaning is to install someone he trusts in the shop.

Tian Futang nodded in a timely manner.

At this time, the hot dish comes up, steaming hot, and the meat is fragrant.

Tian Futang couldn't help but let out a long breath.

Nagumo smiled, "Please." ”

Suddenly, I heard a shout in my ears: "Xiao Er, that person came later than me, why did you serve him food first?!" Do you look down on the master? There was a slap on the table.

Xiao Er hurriedly smiled: "A few masters, come soon." ”

Nagumo glanced slightly.

On a table by the north wall, several men in brocade clothes were shouting.

Nanyun pretended not to hear it and continued to drink with Tian Xiucai.

The shopkeeper quickly served the food to the table of guests, and the few people quieted down.

A bunch of gentlemen! Nagumo sneered.

I only heard a few people talking about women.

One of them smiled and said, "When it comes to women, we can't fail to mention the fourth miss of the Shen family." ”

The chopsticks in Nagumo's hand moved slightly.

Miss Shen Family?

Two

I only heard one person ask, "Qin Er, are you talking about Shen Wanjin's daughter?" ”

That Qin Er shook his head and took a mouthful of the dish, put it in his mouth, and said vaguely while eating: "That's nature." In addition to her, who is also worthy of being called the first beauty in the capital. ”

One person burst out laughing: "The number one beauty in the capital? You sealed? Have you seen it? ”

Then Qin Er hurriedly said: "You don't believe it? I've seen it with my own eyes, it's really a fairy-like beauty. ”

The crowd quipped, "Where have you seen it?" Could it be in a dream? ”

Qin Er swore a gambling curse: "Whoever wants to deceive people will die a family." ”

Everyone laughed and said, "You guy, you still get up seriously." ”

Qin Er boasted: "Once, I went to the Hou Mansion to do business, and I happened to meet the young grandmother of the Hou Mansion, who was the fourth lady of the Shen family. At that time, I was so shocked that I couldn't move my legs. That waist, that face, in the capital, there will never be a second person. Thinking of me Qin Er, looking for flowers and asking Liu, I have seen the world, what kind of beauty has not been seen? But for the first time, I saw such a stunning beauty. It's not that I look down on you, but if you do, I'm afraid you won't even be able to go. ”

The crowd laughed and said, "So, you climbed back?" ”

Qin Er sighed: "It's a pity, a flower is inserted in cow dung." Just because Zhao Tong's kid is also worthy of marrying such a beauty? If his sister hadn't entered the palace and became the imperial concubine, wouldn't he still be a stinky boy who sells dog meat? Now, he has become an uncle of the country, a little marquis! ”

Everyone echoed with envy, jealousy, and hatred: "Isn't it?!" ”

One person said mysteriously: "I heard that at the beginning, Zhao Tong originally asked for the eldest lady of the Shen family, but somehow, he later married the fourth lady. If you marry the eldest lady, you will really be a couple. ”

The crowd laughed.

Nagumo's heart was shocked.

The eldest lady of the Shen family, isn't that her wife Shen Qingluo? It turns out that she has been hired by another family?

I only heard Qin Er say proudly: "I know this reason." ”

Everyone said in unison: "Tell me quickly." What's going on? ”

That Qin Er deliberately sold a pass, and changed the topic: "I heard, 'Come to Xianglou' is a new chick?" ”

Everyone was hearing this, where could they let him talk nonsense, and said in unison: "Tell me quickly, what is going on with the Shen family?" Don't sell it! ”

Qin Er smiled and said, "You guys are also anxious. Well, I'll hear to you. ”

Qin Er lowered his voice and pretended to be mysterious: "At the beginning, I heard that the Shen family had four daughters who were to be married, so I planned to ask for my baby son Zhao Tong to marry him. I heard that the eldest daughter was a concubine, so it was agreed that the eldest daughter would be a daughter-in-law. Everything is a foregone conclusion, who knows, when the next hire, there were twists and turns. With that, he picked up his glass, took a deep sip of wine, and ate the dish slowly.

Everyone scolded and said, "What's the mess? You, you have a lot of appetite. ”

Nanyun unconsciously pricked up his ears, and doubts suddenly arose in his heart.

Qin Er continued: "It should also be, that day, Zhao Tong personally went to the Shen Mansion to be hired, and he didn't want to, but inadvertently, he met the fourth lady of the Shen family. At that time, I was shocked, my spirit was wandering, and when I came back, I suffered from lovesickness. After inquiring carefully, I realized that they were both sisters, but they were very different. The eldest lady he hired was an ugly bastard. ”

A fat man interrupted: "I know this." ”

The crowd reprimanded: "Whoever doesn't know, you have a lot of mouths." What happened? ”

The fat man immediately shut up.

Qin Er was very proud that the audience was so dedicated, and continued: "Later, Zhao Tong pestered his father, and he didn't care about it, so he must hire another fourth lady. The Marquis of Xin doted on his only son, but he had no choice but to be cheeky and go to the door to beg. Of course, it was unpleasant. ”

I only heard one person interject: "Yes, that Shen Wanjin is also a figure with a head and a face, how can he be humiliated like this?" ”

Qin Er sneered and said: "No matter how rich he Shen Wanjin is, he can't resist the favored imperial relatives!" The Marquis of Xin is the emperor's father-in-law, Zhao Tong is the emperor's brother-in-law, the dignified uncle, how many heads does Shen Wanjin have, dare to offend? It's not that he obediently married the fourth lady to Zhao Tong. It's just that later, I heard that Zhao Tong didn't treat Miss Fourth very well. Marrying into your hands is what it is. It's a pity that a good piece of lamb fell into the dog's mouth. ”

Everyone sighed, and they didn't know whether they were sighing about the twists and turns of the story, or sighing that the fourth lady fell into the dog's mouth.

Nagumo slightly bowed. No wonder Mrs. Shen is so taboo about the fourth lady, it turns out that there is such a reason for this. It must be that because of the appearance of the fourth young lady, the eldest lady's family affairs were destroyed, so in order to avoid Shen Qingluo being sad, she was not allowed to be mentioned.

Nanyun remembered Shen Qingluo's words: "It's mine, it's mine, it's not mine, it's never mine." ”

Nagumo suddenly realized at this time. It turned out that Mrs. Shen was worried that a similar scenario would happen again. She was worried that when Nanyun saw the beautiful Fourth Lady, she would no longer be able to live with Shen Qingluo in peace.

Thinking of this, Nanyun's heart couldn't help but jump.

He couldn't deny that the woman who played the piano at a glimpse of it had already attracted him deeply with just a graceful back.

But even if they did, what could they do?

Nanyun sighed slightly.

At this time, I only listened to the person on the table over there, who seemed to believe it or not, and questioned: "How did you know the details of these things in the wealthy family?" ”

Qin Er smiled and said, "A relative of mine, who works in the Shen Mansion, was told to me by him, how can there be a fake." ”

The fat man couldn't help but say, "It's just that the eldest lady was hired and retired, what happened?" ”

Everyone laughed and scolded: "Say you're stupid, and you're still not convinced." A few days ago, wasn't it the eldest lady of the Shen family who got married with great fanfare? ”

The fat man suddenly realized: "It was the poor show who sold words that married that ugly bastard!" ”

Everyone laughed: "That ugly monster is worthy of marrying a poor ghost." ”

Qin Er smiled: "It's not." That poor Xiucai is now married to the eldest lady of the Shen family, and the rich dowry is enough for him to eat and drink for several lifetimes, where is he still a poor ghost? It's a nouveau riche! ”

Nanyun could only hear a burst of red and white on his face, and in his hand, he clenched a chopstick, and it could be seen that he was holding back his anger, but his hand squeezing the chopsticks became harder and harder, and it seemed that he would have a seizure at any time.

Tian Futang was nervous and embarrassed, and a little restless.

Today's Nanyun is not only a friend, but also his owner, his food and clothing, and his parents. However, Tian Futang didn't listen to it, and it didn't listen either, it was a dilemma.

Tian Futang smiled reluctantly: "The child is sick, and Cunning Jing is still waiting for me to buy medicine at home and go back, we have almost drunk the wine, so it is better to go back early, so as not to make Lord Tang suspenseful." ”

Nanyun didn't want to stay any longer, so he said, "It's okay." Let's talk about it another day. As he spoke, he stood up and took out the silver from his arms: "Little Er, settle the bill." ”

But a harsh sentence sounded in his ears, accompanied by a loud mockery: "The eldest lady of the Shen family, although she is extremely ugly, but in the eyes of that poor boy, I am afraid that she is a fairy-like character!" That kid has lived for many years, but I'm afraid I haven't seen what a woman is like! Ha ha! ”

Nanyun couldn't hold back any longer, punched hard, hammered it on the table, and roared angrily: "Shut up! ”

As soon as these words came out, several pairs of eyes on the adjacent table turned their heads at the same time and looked at them together.

Tian Futang lowered his voice and persuaded: "Do you want to make a storm in the city?" These people are all gentlemen, why should you provoke them. ”

Tian Futang smiled at those people and said, "It's none of your business." You continue to drink. Hurriedly pulled Nanyun and hurriedly walked out.

I could only hear the people behind him laughing, "It's just a drunkard." Qin Er, go on! ”

Nanyun walked out of the welcome building, and with a "wow" sound, he spit it out, and a hot breath churned in his chest.

The night has already covered the streets.

Nanyun was thinking at this time, what was Shen Qingluo, who had reduced herself to a joke on the street, doing?
