Wangjiang Tower is located in Guangshoufang.

Limited by the relationship between the times and building materials and construction costs, the houses of this era, except for the pagoda, are rarely built too high, and the Wangjiang Building is five stories high, which is already a landmark building in Lingzhou City.

Because the other buildings around are generally two or three floors, even if it is located in Guangshoufang, after going up to the fifth floor, you can still easily see the Lingjiang River flowing from Anminfang in the south.

It is said that it is Wangjiang Tower, which is also worthy of its name.

But Gao Jing's time to treat was at night, which obviously lost the possibility of viewing the scenery.

It's just that the Wangjiang Tower at night has another liveliness.

The time was written on the invitation, and Zhou Ang stepped on the past, walked all the way, and when he arrived at the place, it happened to be dusk and the red sun had fallen.

Someone was waiting in the lobby on the first floor of Wangjiang Building, and when he saw Zhou Ang coming in, he didn't wait for the shopkeeper to greet him, he had already stepped forward, bowed down, and said, "May I ask if Zhou Xiaoshu is in person?"

The school book is purely a good name, and the people who manage the books in this era are called school books, just like the future generations of the sales of Mr. Zhou and Mr. Wang, and the opening of the house is similar to Brother Zhang and Brother Li.

Mother Zhou Cai's family called him "Ang'er" when he was at home, and said "my family Dalang" to the outside world, and the illiterate neighbors called him "Zhou Family Dalang", and familiar readers could call him "Zhou Lang", and strangers were slightly polite to call him "Zhou Lang" and "Zhou Family Xianggong", if he could make a fortune in the future, maybe someone would call him "Zhou Daguanren".

That's it.

Zhou Ang turned his head to look at him and said politely: "Don't dare, it's Zhou Ang." ”

The man bowed slightly and said, "Zhou Xiaoshu, please come with me, my county has been waiting for a long time." ”

So Zhou Ang followed him up the stairs.

Fifth floor.

Although the sky is not yet completely dark, there are lights and candles in the building, illuminating the whole restaurant is extraordinarily bright and extraordinarily atmospheric. Along the way, the neatly dressed shopkeeper shuttled back and forth to serve the food, and the singer who was not ordered went downstairs in frustration, and there were piano songs and wine orders in the private rooms everywhere, and from time to time there was a burst of laughter through the eardrums, and the fragrance of wine and coriander and the fragrance of the woman's fat powder lingered.

As he passed by the fourth floor, Zhou Ang even heard a small band playing.

The red teeth clapper, the inch off the pipa, accompanied by a female singer's shallow chanting and low singing.

The nightlife of the rich in this era has just begun.

And usually, at this point in time, Zhou Ang should be reading hard or practicing calligraphy, Zhou Cai's is sewing and repairing or doing embroidery work, and about half an hour later, when this side is going to be more and more noisy, everyone has basically fallen asleep in Banzai Fang, and it is difficult to see the lights.

The candles on the fifth floor are hot, but they are much quieter than the floors below.

If it's the meal at noon, I'm afraid that the private room here is hard to find, but at night, it's probably because the river view doesn't have to be seen, and many people are too lazy to be elegant.

This is the lively place of Wangjiang Tower at night.

led Zhou Ang to the door of a private room on the fifth floor, and the person who led the way gave a slight salute, turned around and retired.

Zhou Ang stretched out his hand to push the door open, and Gao Jing, who was standing in front of the window, turned around, smiled and arched his hand, and said, "Brother Zixiu!"

Zhou Ang also gave up his hand, but said, "What scenery is Brother Anping looking at?"

Gao Jing stretched out his hand, and waited for Zhou Ang to sit down, he sat down opposite, but said with a smile: "There was still some sunset just now, and now there is only a vast expanse left, where is there any scenery?"

After a pause, he smiled again: "If you want to talk about the scenery, Brother Zixiu has just come all the way, and he has probably experienced a lot." ”

Zhou Ang shook his head and laughed when he heard this.

As he spoke, the door opened from the outside, but it was the man who had just led the way back with a tea tray in his hand.

poured a cup of tea for each of the two, and he was about to turn around and retire, but was stopped by Gao Jing again, "Stop!" and then introduced to Zhou Ang: "Brother Zi, this is my servant, a high-ranking servant, if he sends someone to deliver a letter for personal matters in the future, he will go, and Brother Zixiu should not be turned away." ”

Zhou Ang nodded at the high servant when he heard this, and the high servant also gave another salute, and then turned around and went out.

The table is a square table, not very big, not like a big wine and a big guest, but the two sit opposite each other. But the private room is actually very large, so it can't help but look a little empty.

The two of them drank tea and gossiped casually, the door was opened again, and it was the senior servant who came in first, but he avoided aside, and behind him was sonorous, but it was two young women who stepped in, and gave a salute, saying "I have seen two ministers", and then walked over separately and stood behind the two of them.

Although Zhou Ang has always lived a hard life, in his past memories, he still left some experience of going to the homes of wealthy classmates to feast and eat.

If you eat flower wine, you can settle down, these women will pour wine and cloth dishes, and if you talk about the pattern, these women stand behind them and do pure wine pouring work.

It is commonly known as "holding pot".

After the two women, two more women came in, one holding the pipa in his arms, and the other holding the red tooth clapper, and when they came to the door, they also gave gifts like the law, and said "two ministers are safe", Gao Jing nodded slightly, and said, "Sit down!" They responded "Xie Xianggong!", and then each moved the stool from the corner and sat down.

Gao Jing said with a smile: "There is no scenery to accompany the meal at night, so I ordered Zhou Yu to call a small song, or you can drink wine!"

Zhou Ang smiled and said, "Brother Anping is too polite. ”

Gao Jing didn't answer when he heard this, but just nodded slightly at the tall servant.

The servant turned to leave, and in a short time, more than a dozen dishes were brought up and a table was set.

Two pots of good wine, Liyang Spring.

The woman behind her made chopsticks, held a pot and poured wine, and then retreated behind her.

Not in a hurry to drink and eat, Gao Jing first commanded and said, "Sing some light songs." ”

So the two women sitting sideways at the door nodded slightly, and the sound of the pipa moved in an instant.

Not to mention, there are four more young women holding pots and singing, and this private room is suddenly not empty.

So the two of them chatted casually on a small song, eating and drinking.

It's all about reading and learning.

Before you know it, you are full of wine and food.

After coming to this world, this is the first time Zhou Ang has drunk alcohol, fortunately, the degree is not high, and it is made of pure grain, a pot is about more than a catty, and after the stomach, it feels similar to drinking two bottles of beer.

In the previous life, this is not yet the beginning, but the physical fitness and alcohol tolerance of the two lives are obviously different, and there is still a feeling of being slightly drunk at this time.

The river breeze is coming, not cold or hot, very pleasant.

Gao Jing didn't order anyone to add wine, but only signaled to the servant to reward the money, and ordered the four women to go out.

As soon as the door was closed, the breeze was clear.

Gao Jing's fingers tapped lightly on the side of the table, and asked with a smile: "I heard that Lingzun was once a county canonical history, and between the market, he has been praised so far, Brother Zixiu intends to be a classicist, or is he willing to be Maocai?"

Zhou Ang smiled when he heard this, and said in his heart that it was finally here.

In order to invite this guest, Gao Jing first chose the place outside, and then put down this light and luxurious posture, exquisite, but not extravagant, it can be regarded as a polite enough, what I want to say, probably this is what he said.

It's still a little more direct, but after drinking, it's also Qu Wan.

From the last time he took the initiative to come to the door, to the invitation in the courtyard of the Chen family yesterday, and the politeness and respect he has always been so polite and respectful as a Shangguan, it has already been shown that he intends to woo him.

Zhou Ang pondered for a moment and asked, "What is the interpretation of the classic history?

Gao Jing had already put away his smile and said with a straight face: "Maocai is the duty and responsibility of the county guard, and there is nothing that can be done about it. ”

Zhou Ang smiled and asked, "What am I going to do?"

Gao Jing said: "You don't need to do anything. Every day, I go to the yamen to order a mao, and wait for me at critical moments, so that I can come and go freely on weekdays. How?"
