On the twentieth day of the lunar month, Gangneung City is the last gathering of the year.

On this day every year, the people of Gangneung began to buy New Year's goods, and the bazaar was also completely new on this day, with a dazzling array of goods on the streets, and the streets were even more rubbing shoulders, calling for buying and selling.

As the largest merchant in Jiangling City, the Zhang family has no less than 100 large and small shops, Zhang Qingyuan is extremely good at doing business, from jewelry to pots and pans, there is no one he does not handle, so on this day, the Zhang family is the busiest day of the year, all the Zhang family's manpower is on the battlefield, and they can also be busy not taking care of eating and drinking, of course, this day is also the time when the Zhang family is making money.

In previous years, all this had little to do with Zhang Shaoyang, if you can make money every day, I can spend a lot of money. However, there was some surprise this year, Zhang Shaoyang actually took the initiative to go to a few shops run by his family.

It's not that he suddenly changed his sex, he is still not interested in doing business, the reason why he goes to the shop is mainly because he can't stay idle at home, he used to like to go to places where he spent money, but now he is really not interested, it is better to go to his own store and have a look.

I asked the idiot for advice early in the morning, and according to Zhang Shaoyang's special habits, the idiot specially introduced him to two places.

Located on Beitang Street, Puyufang and Agar Zhai have always had a good business, and the two shops are opposite the door, and there are often women with good family backgrounds to buy gold and jade jewelry and rouge, which is simply a wonderful place for Zhang Shaoyang, he only needs to move a stool to the door to sit, I don't know how many eye-catching women can be seen at the end of the day?

After breakfast, Zhang Shaoyang dressed up a little, and went out alone to Beitang Street, Puyufang and Agar Zhai are the time-honored stores of the Zhang family, not far from Zhang's house, two streets to the north, Puyufang mainly sells some jade jewelry, and Agar Zhai is mainly engaged in rouge, which is a woman's favorite thing.

As soon as he arrived at Beitang Street, Zhang Shaoyang felt how hot the business of these two shops was, there were people coming in and out almost all the time, and the store was even more crowded, nine out of ten of these people were young women, and they were all dressed well, Zhang Shaoyang touched his chin and thought about it, and felt that a man standing at the door of the rouge store was somewhat unsightly, so he went straight to Puyufang.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhang Shaoyang's white-clothed saber dress attracted everyone's attention, he was already handsome, coupled with this dusty dress, he suddenly walked into this kind of secular store, which was somewhat out of place, so soon some people whispered, and they were very curious about who the handsome boy in front of him was. Of course, there are also people who know the legendary figure of Gangneung in front of them, and they want to stay away from this infamous guy, but they can't move under their feet, but they are getting closer and closer to him.

Soon attracted the attention of the shopkeeper, and when he saw that it was the young master of his own owner, the shopkeeper hurriedly ran down from the counter and said, "Ouch, it turns out that the young master is here, hurry up, go to the room to taste tea?"

Zhang Shaoyang smiled and waved his hand: "No need, I'll just take a look, you go get busy." ”

The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man in his forties, as soon as he heard Zhang Shaoyang's words, he was immediately relieved, he was already too busy, if he still had to serve the young master in front of him, it would be really miserable, he hurriedly arched his hand: "Then the young master can look at it casually, if you need to call me." ”

"Well, go ahead. ”

After taking a look at all kinds of beautiful jewelry in the store, Zhang Shaoyang began to pay attention to the 'guests' around him, compared to these jade, the women with their own characteristics are more beautiful.

He specially found a corner pillar, leaned on it and looked at the people coming and going with interest, every time he saw a beautiful woman, Zhang Shaoyang couldn't help but compare it with Gao Jingshu, and finally found that only Gao Jingshu could be called perfect, after looking at it for a while, among these women, the figure with a better posture was almost hot, and the bumpy woman was a little older, and after looking at it for a while, he felt a little bored.

At this moment, suddenly a familiar voice caught Zhang Shaoyang's attention, he followed the sound and looked, only to see Cao Yunsheng leading a girl with a good posture and figure into Puyufang, as soon as he saw his old friend, Zhang Shaoyang suddenly perked up and walked towards Cao Yunsheng.

Cao Yunsheng still looks like a bookish and angry, this kid does have some ink in his belly, he can chant a poem casually, and he can also get on the stage, if it weren't for the spirit of the year, the palace test will follow Zhang Shaoyang back to Jiangling, maybe now he is also a court official, fortunately, this guy has a good fate, the emperor only punished him for ten years and was not allowed to enter the office, exempting him from prison, but it also basically cut off his future career.

Because of this, among the many rich children in Jiangling, Zhang Shaoyang has the best relationship with Cao Yunsheng, and he is also the person who knows Cao Yunsheng's character best.

On the contrary, Cao Yunsheng is upright and cute!

Go to the Qinglou kiln just to drink, no matter how beautiful the Oiran is, he will not take advantage of it, no matter how big the scene is, he can sit still and not mess up, this determination Zhang Shaoyang has to bow down.

Cao Yunsheng paid all his attention to the woman beside him, in Zhang Shaoyang's memory, Cao Yunsheng had never been lost like this by a woman, so that he walked to Cao Yunsheng didn't notice it, until Zhang Shaoyang patted him lightly on the shoulder, Cao Yunsheng looked at the person in front of him suspiciously, and was instantly stunned in place.

"Shaoyang?"

"Isn't that me?"

Cao Yunsheng was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly grabbed Zhang Shaoyang's arm and looked it up and down, and then punched him in the chest and laughed: "You kid, you're finally back." ”

Looking at the joy on Cao Yunsheng's face that could not be concealed, Zhang Shaoyang was moved in his heart.

"Who is this?" Zhang Shaoyang pointed to the woman beside Cao Yunsheng, who also looked at him curiously.

"Oh, this is Miss Xu Baiqian. ”

"Hello Miss Xu!" Zhang Shaoyang arched his hand.

Xu Baiqian smiled knowingly, revealing two deep dimples, which is the kind of gentle character that only Jiangnan women have.

"I've seen Childe!"

"A few months ago, my father arranged a family affair for me, and I fell in love with Miss Xu as soon as I saw it. Cao Yunsheng looked at Xu Baiqian with an infatuated expression, and his eyes were full of soft colors.

Although Zhang Shaoyang had already guessed it, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Your kid is about to get married?"

"No, a good woman like Miss Xu will regret it for life if she misses it. Cao Yunsheng said proudly.

"So today you're here to buy some jewelry for your younger siblings?"

"Yes. Cao Yunsheng nodded, but then he pinched Zhang Shaoyang: "I'll tell you, don't take the opportunity to retaliate against me, it's too expensive, we'll go to another house." ”

Zhang Shaoyang glanced at him: "Look at what you said, you can choose Puyufang and Agar Zhai today at will, and you won't receive a penny!"

Cao Yunsheng's eyes lit up: "Really?"

"Seriously!"

"Since Zhang Gongzi has said it, Miss Xu, you can choose it casually!" Cao Yunsheng smiled all over his face, urging Xu Baiqian to quickly choose his favorite jewelry, lest Zhang Shaoyang regret it later.

Xu Baiqian knew that the two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they must have a lot to say, so he left sensibly to choose jewelry, and Zhang Shaoyang dragged Cao Yunsheng out of Puyufang.

While walking out, Cao Yunsheng said: "Shaoyang, you have changed a lot this time. ”

Zhang Shaoyang sighed: "Who said it wasn't?"

"During the time you weren't in Gangneung, Gangneung was really boring, and even I started to do serious business with my father. ”

"Oh, what about the rest of the brothers?"

Cao Yunsheng was silent for a moment, and said: "About half a year ago, a guy named Liu Han came, since he came to Jiangling, Lin Yixuan's kid has been following Liu Han's buttocks, I heard that his father wants to find him an official position, counting on Liu Han's father in the capital, and we are naturally estranged." ”

"Lin Yixuan, this guy, really sees the wind and rudder. Zhang Shaoyang said sarcastically.

"Hey, it's no wonder that he doesn't want to have a great future. ”

Zhang Shaoyang wanted to say something, but was touched by Cao Yunsheng inexplicably, Cao Yunsheng glanced at him, he looked over, and saw Gao Jingshu and the two maids walking towards the agar zhai.

"What do you still miss Miss Gao, I haven't met a better one than her outside for a year?"

Zhang Shaoyang came back to his senses and pretended to be casual: "It's much better than her, I don't feel anything about her now." ”

"Cut, just the way your eyes are shining, you don't seem to feel it? I advise you to die of this heart, she humiliated you so much at the beginning, and now I heard that she is going to marry Liu Han, this Miss Gao's eyes are really not much. Liu Han shook his head with a sigh.

It didn't take long for Xu Baiqian to choose the jewelry, Cao Yunsheng went to Xu Baiqian's side to accuse, and Zhang Shaoyang stood at the door and was distracted, he knew in his heart that he had liked someone for so long, how could he say that he didn't like it?

A moment later, Gao Jingshu came out of the agar zhai, the maid behind her was holding two rouge boxes in her hands, she thought that Gao Jingshu would come to Puyufang again to choose jewelry, but she left directly, Zhang Shaoyang watched Gao Jingshu gradually go away, until she left Beitang Street and walked away, Zhang Shaoyang sighed a little depressed, but at this time, he inadvertently saw two familiar figures walking out of the corner of Beitang Street, and then followed Gao Jingshu in front.

Zhang Shaoyang's heart sank, and he glanced at Cao Yunsheng and Xu Baiqian, who were still busy in front of the counter, and he didn't hesitate anymore, and chased directly in that direction.

Out of Beitang Street, the people in the market also became sparse, and they kept following the two people in front of them, looking at the direction of the Zhizhou Mansion, it was obvious that these two people were coming to Gao Jingshu.

He secretly used his qi control kung fu, and before he knew it, he was much closer to the two people in front of him, and when he reached out, he could hear the whispered conversation between the two people in front of him.

"Brother Liu, if you don't start again, you won't have a chance. This voice is Lin Yixuan's.

"You said that if you do this, will it anger Gao Chengyuan, in case he goes to the emperor with a twist, even if my father is the secretary of the criminal department, he may not be able to suppress it. ”

The person who spoke was none other than Liu Han before.

"I said Brother Liu, the so-called family ugliness should not be publicized, once the raw rice is cooked and cooked, for the sake of Gao Jingshu's reputation, Lord Gao will not dare to speak out, and when the time comes, he will have no other way than to marry his daughter to you. ”

Liu Han thought for a while and said fiercely: "Also, Gao Chengyuan, an old fox, refuses to agree to this marriage for a long time, so I will do everything to the extreme, and stain Gao Jingshu's innocence, I don't believe that he can still calm down!"

"Hey, hey, hey, naturally!"

Zhang Shaoyang, who was quietly following behind, clenched his fists tightly, Lin Yixuan, this dog thing, really knows people and faces, but doesn't know his heart!
