Zhu Shao strode forward, and he was about to bow down to the old man, which was to recognize the teacher. Tang Shao and Wen Shao were stunned and hurriedly held Zhu Shao. Although it is said to be a game, it is not necessary to take it so seriously, or give some benefits to the old man, maybe, the problem will be solved without apprenticeship. They knew in their hearts that the old man was a trick, and it was indeed far superior to Zhu Shao in form, but if it was to say that the real calligraphy attainment, Zhu Shao was much higher, and if Zhu Shao recognized the teacher, wouldn't the two of them also have to recognize this elder? This is really not what they want.

The old man stood quietly, silent, as if waiting.

The crowd next to them cheered, they are all afraid of the world is not chaotic, seeing the calligraphy of the famous Zhu family all over the world, actually in Fengxian Lou openly want to worship an ugly old man as a teacher, they are excited: strange news, see Zhu Shao ugly, they are happy in their hearts, let the quiet Fengpu City for a long time also restless, not half a day, Zhu Shao Fengxian Lou apprenticeship will inevitably resound throughout the city, they just wait to see the excitement.

At this time, a person came up from the staircase, this person was Zhou Bin, the son of Zhou, it was really time, Zhou Bin was the oldest among the four, the most knowledgeable, usually modest, knowledgeable, and the most capable of dealing with problems, and all three of them called him the eldest brother.

When the three of them saw Zhou Bin coming, they were very happy, and they all gathered around and shouted, "Big brother." ”

Zhou Bin asked about what happened, and Tang Hu hurriedly told the process briefly. Zhou Bin nodded, he looked at Yun Yao Xiaoxiao and Yu Han, they had met at the door, and he put the two of them in, because of the strange appearance of the two, he naturally remembered. So he approached Yun Yao with a smile and smiled, and said: "Uncle turned out to be a good skill, Xiaosheng apologized to the uncle for my little brother, single brother, come, since you lost the bet, you should apprentice, come on!"

Tang Hu and Wenming were unhappy in their hearts, Zhu Shan slowly stepped forward, he felt aggrieved, but he knew that Brother Zhou was also for his good, if he worshipped his teacher today, the whole city would see his jokes; but if he didn't admit this defeat, the reputation of their four talented people for not being trustworthy would spread all over the streets and alleys, and they would be ashamed of others, what a dilemma! He had already decided to protect his reputation, what was his personal joke, and now that the eldest brother had also decided to do so, then he still chose the right path.

Zhu Shao gritted his teeth and bowed down again.

"Slow!" the old man spoke, shaking his hand to stop Zhu Shan, "Zhu Gongzi, that's it, since it is Brother Zhou who came forward, I can't help but give him face, I admire Brother Zhou's personality very much, this bet is done, to be honest, from the perspective of calligraphy, the little old man is far inferior to Zhu Gongzi, but the old man has made a coincidence, hahaha!

Zhou Bin was very happy, and hurriedly thanked: "The old man understands the righteousness, it really makes Xiaosheng admire, since the old man no longer takes it seriously, then this matter will be done, but the old man is a bold person, Xiaosheng must get acquainted, and the gambling game also said that it is necessary to treat the old man well for three days, it is better to let Xiaosheng do this heart, and now go back to Zhoufu with Xiaosheng, how about we drink for three days?"

"This, this is not good!" Yun Yao smiled and said that he was embarrassed.

Zhou Bin hurriedly said, "Does the old man have any concerns?"

"I, hehe, I'm a villager, it's not good to go to your mansion to disturb!"

"What's this? My friend of Zhou Bin never cares about the difference between rich and poor, beautiful and ugly, although don't worry, uncle, I still want to ask you about your peculiar calligraphy village?"

"Hehehe!

"I look at grandpa, don't push it off, Zhou Gongzi's good intentions are rare. Yuhan said. Yuhan's original plan was to get close to any of the four talents first, and then find a way to get close to the Zhou Mansion, but now that the opportunity has come, they can directly enter the Zhou Mansion, the opportunity is rare, how can they be willing to give up.

Zhou Bin glanced at Yuhan and said with a smile: "What the girl said is that the old man should stop shirking, how about it?"

Yun Yao smiled and had no choice but to grin: "Okay, since my granddaughter has agreed, then there will be Lao Zhou's son." ”

Finally, a farce ended, Zhu Shan and the others put their minds at ease, Zhou Bin instructed the three of them, and led Yuhan and the others to leave Fengxian Building.

Zhou's mansion is luxurious and exquisite, it is one of the best mansions in Fengpu City, walk into the carved Zhou's mansion gate, a tortuous boulevard stretches deeply, there are rockeries and flowing water everywhere, covered bridges and pavilions, and the branch road is even more turning, nine curves and intestines. It is completely a Jiangnan garden style.

Yuhan couldn't help asking: "Gongzi Zhou, your mansion is very distinctive, what a water town in the south of the Yangtze River!"

Zhou Bin was overjoyed and said in surprise: "I didn't expect the girl to know the Jiangnan architectural style, is the girl from the south?"

Yuhan shook her head, she hadn't been to the land of Nanqin, but Yuhan's hometown in her previous life was the southern water town, and she was very familiar with the characteristics and styles of these courtyards: "Our mountainous places in the land of Xiqin are still different from the southern water towns, but I once had friends who were southerners, and I often talked about them, so I knew a little bit about them." ”

Zhou Bin was a little disappointed, but soon smiled again: "It turns out that you are from the Qinglong Mountain Range area next door, the dragon and the tiger are not separated, our Baihu Mountain Range area is higher and steeper, but it is not as big as your Qinglong territory, but the architectural style of the houses in the two places is very similar, but my mother is from Nanqin, and she very much hopes to live in a house in the south, so I built this courtyard for her according to the southern style." ”

Yun Yao smiled and nodded hurriedly: "Oh, I see, it's really filial piety and respectable!

"Yes, but she rarely comes out and walks around, Xijing!"

"Didn't that bother her?

"It doesn't matter, she never asks me about it, and besides, the yard is so big, it won't disturb her. Zhou said angrily.

Zhou Bin was very enthusiastic, and asked the servants to arrange a place for them to live, and everyone went back to their rooms to rest for a long time.

In the evening, Zhou Bin warmly entertained the two in his guest room, and when Yuhan came here with the servants, Yun Yao Xiaoxiaosheng, Zhou Bin and Zhu Dan, Wenming and another man and a woman were already seated, and more than ten girls and servants next to them were busy and busy, so it was not lively.

"Granddaughter, come, come and sit here. Yun Yao smiled and pointed to an empty seat next to Yu Han.

Everyone met each other and greeted each other, Zhu and Wen were familiar with each other, needless to say, the other two were Zhou Bin got up and pointed to the man and introduced: "This is my Uncle Qian, Master Qian of the Taishou Governor's Mansion in Fengpu City, known as the Eight Hundred Fox, he is an elegant person, and he is also the master of Zhudan." ”

Qian Jiangxi hurriedly stood up and bowed, Yuhan saw this person, in his thirties, with clear eyebrows and eyes, a long figure, and a Confucian demeanor, could he be the county commander Zhu Ran and Master Lin in the mouth of Master Qian. His nickname is "Eight Hundred Fox", he must be extremely cunning, and this person is also an important person, I didn't expect to see him here.

Zhou Bin pointed to the dignified and beautiful woman beside him and said, "This is my eldest sister, and everyone on the road calls her Sister Lan." ”

Zhou Lanzhi bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "I heard that the little brother said that he was going to have a banquet today, and he was a strange person, he just came to ask for a glass of wine to drink, and he could meet the strange person, killing two birds with one stone, haha!"

Yun Yao smiled and shook his head hurriedly: "Sister Lan, the old man who said it is very ashamed! The small skill of carving insects is not worth mentioning in front of everyone, hehe! Now ugly! Now ugly!"

Qian Jiangxi took a glass of wine and toasted, and said with a smile: "Uncle, the apprentice Shan Er has offended a lot during the day today, and I hope that the old man will not blame the juniors for their arrogance." ”

Zhu Shan picked up the wine glass and stood up, made an apology, and then drank it all.

Yun Yao smiled and smiled that he had always loved wine, so he didn't refuse, and he also drank a glass, and said politely: "Where!

Qian Jiangxi drank a cup and then said: "I heard that your village is a village of calligraphy, rich in ink inkstone, even children know it, it's really a strange news, I don't know where it is!"

"Ah, this, in fact, it's not so exaggerated, it's a very small village in the mountains, outsiders don't know about it, hehe!" Yun Yao smiled and laughed.

"Oh, no, no, this is interesting, our Fengpu City is called Mocheng because there is an ink pond on the barren land east of Fengpu City County, which can be said to be a famous inkstone in the Taihan Dynasty!" Qian Jiangxi said.

Yun Yao smiled and took over the topic: "That's, that's, the ink pool is on the edge of the Qin's no man's land, at the foot of the Lingling Mountain, it is famous! It is said that the ink fragrance of the ink pool spreads for ten miles, and the handwriting can be guaranteed for a hundred years! This, how can our small village be compared with the ink pool, the old man is just bragging in Fengxian Building, showing off one or two, hehehe!"

"The ink in the inkwell is good, but... Alas!" Qian Jiangxi sighed.

Yuhan and Yun Yao looked at Qian Jiangxi with a smile, as if they didn't know.

Zhou Bin said with a smile: "Uncle Qian, don't lament, this matter is not something we can solve for a while, it has a history of more than 50 years, come, come, everyone eat, eat!"

Everyone drank happily, Yun Yao smiled and loved to drink, and the amount of alcohol was also large, and those who came did not refuse, and drank the cup.

Yu Han was eating the vegetables, and at the same time wondered in her heart: Could it be that there is something big going on in the ink pool? The Bloody Giant Baby didn't mention it, Fengpu City is full of talents, and this Black Spirit Society is as good as a cloud, what kind of thing has not been solved for more than fifty years? She just wanted to ask.

Yun Yao smiled and said, "Lord Qian, what's going on with this ink pool?

"This, this..." Qian Jiangxi looked at Zhou Bin and then at Zhou Lanzhi.

"Is it a private matter that can't be mentioned?" Yun Yao smiled and smiled a little anxious, plus he drank a lot of wine, and his face was red.

Zhou Bin hurriedly shook his head: "Hey, everyone in the city knows about this matter, it's not a hidden thing, or an unsightly thing, the old man is from the Qinglong Mountain Range area, and he doesn't know it." ”

Zhou Lanzhi took a sip of tea and said, "Okay, since you want to understand it so much, you have to start from the beginning with this matter......
