Nangong Yu sighed: "It's a pity that Miss Hai must be recuperating at home today and won't come to the house." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Song Ming said: "The villain thinks that the sea girl must come today." Nangong Yuqi said: "Why?" Song Ming said: "The villain bystander is clear, I can see that the sea girl is respectful and has her own opinions, and the son has a life-saving grace for her, she will definitely come to thank her today." Nangong Yu said: "I hope so, I hope Li Junxian's slander will not make her prejudiced against me." Song Ming said: "Childe, rest assured, Miss Hai is different from other women, she is a person who values facts, light rumors, sees is believing, and believes in her own judgment, this self-confidence should be related to her reading since she was a child." Nangong Yu said happily: "Xiao Song, your progress is very fast, and your skill in seeing people is getting higher and higher." Song Ming said modestly: "The villain is often with his son and father-in-law, so he can naturally learn a lot of things." At this moment, a famous person came to say: "There is a sea girl who meets the son in front of the small courtyard, I don't know if the son will see it?" Nangong Yu hurriedly said: "See, of course I will see." The man said, "The little man invited her in." Nangong Yu suddenly said, "Wait, let me think about it." He thought for a moment and said, "Let's just say that I am now suffering from a cold and am in bed drinking medicine, and I don't have time to see her, so let her meet me in the gazebo in the back garden at noon, and I will invite her to dinner." "The next man took the command. Nangong Yu instructed Song Ming again: "You go and inform the kitchen and let them cook a few more good dishes, and treat the other florists in the Huixiang Pavilion, so that they don't go to the pavilion." Song Ming was also ordered to go.

At noon, Nangong Yu and Song Ming came to the pavilion in the back garden in advance, and Nangong Yu said: "You didn't sleep well last night, go and rest, I'll let people find you if you have something." Song Ming put down the food box and thanked him and retreated. Nangong Yu raised his eyes and saw that Haiqiong was loosening the soil in the flower garden on the other side of the lake, so he walked down the pavilion, crossed the Jiuqu Bridge, and came behind her along the corridor and said, "Doesn't Hai Girl have to rest for a day?" Haiqiong turned around and saw that it was him, hurriedly put down the utensils in his hand, knelt down in place, kowtowed, and said: "The little woman Xie Gongzi's life-saving grace cannot be repaid, please accept it." Nangong Yu hurriedly said: "I don't dare to accept the big gift, the girl please get up quickly." Haiqiong got up at this time, she was in the flower garden when she kowtowed, her forehead, palms, and hem were covered with mud, and she said embarrassedly: "Childe, wait a minute, I'll go wash it." So saying, he ran to the well behind him, put on a bucket of water, washed his hands and face, and then came back. Nangong Yu said: "I prepared a few side dishes at the pavilion, and please enjoy the light and move to the next place." Haiqiong said: "Childe is my benefactor, and let Childe invite me, I really don't want to go, and there will be a chance for the little girl to thank you again in the future." Nangong Yu was overjoyed and said, "Yes, girl, please." ”

When walking on the Jiuqu Stone Bridge, Nangong Yu joked: "Girl, be careful, don't fall into the water again." Haiqiong smiled and said, "How can you be so stupid, it was all because you didn't see the road yesterday." Oh, by the way, I heard that Childe has a cold, is it better?" Nangong Yu saw that she cared about herself, and said happily: "It's not in the way, it's better now, but how is the girl's health?" Haiqiong said: "The medicine given by Childe is very effective, I originally felt a little cold, and after taking a dose, I was fine." Nangong Yu said: "The girl has been tired all day long, plus yesterday's fright, she should have a good rest, how can she work again." Haiqiong said: "Since you are in good health, you can't be idle, and you must pay back the advance salary first." Nangong Yu said: "I see. Haiqiong said: "The little woman's fiancé stormed your mansion yesterday, and the little woman took him to apologize to her son. Nangong Yu said: "It's okay, it's understandable to care about it." Haiqiong said: "But if your mansion can let him into the mansion to visit, there will be no unpleasant incidents." Nangong Yu said with a smile: "There are hundreds of people in the house, if anyone's family can come in and visit casually, isn't it a mess, I hope the girl understands." Haiqiong said: "Hey, there are many rules in the mansion." ”

After coming to the pavilion, Haiqiong said: "This is where our subordinates eat, what a wronged son." Nangong Yu said: "I heard Song Ming say that the girl didn't want to get along with the man indoors, so I thought it would be most appropriate to invite the girl to dinner here." Haiqiong said: "Thank you Gongzi for accommodating, the little girl really doesn't want to get along with strange men, but Gongzi is the little woman's father-in-law, and it should be another matter, and Lao Gongzi bothered." Nangong Yu said with a smile: "Also, who said that this is just a place for people to eat, usually you want to be convenient, eat here, in fact, the scenery here is the best, enjoy the scenery of the garden, and occasionally I like to come here to sit." Haiqiong said: "Yes, this garden is really beautiful, and it is also a good mood to work here, and when you are tired, you can look at the surrounding scenery, and you will not feel bored at all." Nangong Yu said: "It's okay if the girl is happy, please take a seat." Haiqiong gave ten thousand blessings and sat down on the stone pier. ”

Nangong Yu opened the food box, put the dishes and chopsticks on the table first, and then brought the dishes one by one. Haiqiong was surprised: "Aren't these Wenchang chicken, Dongshan goat, and Hele crab all our Qiongzhou dishes?" Nangong Yu smiled: "I know that the girl is from Qiongzhou, so I let the kitchen prepare the girl's hometown dishes, but I don't know if the taste is different." Haiqiong said abruptly: "I haven't eaten hometown food for many years." Nangong Yu said: "You have a lot of seafood and fruits there, and you also use fruits in the dishes, this coconut crab, pineapple chicken, papaya cup, mango juice and shrimp, are all made according to the flavor of Qiongzhou, please taste the girl." Haiqiong picked up the chopsticks and ate a few bites, and said movingly: "The chefs in Gongzi's Mansion are more authentic than those of us Qiongzhou, and besides, we don't have the money to buy such good ingredients." Nangong Yu filled two cups of tea and said with a smile: "It's good if the girl likes to eat." Haiqiong said: "The two of us can't eat so much, I don't know... I don't know if the little woman can take the rest of the food away, my fiancé is also from Qiongzhou, and he hasn't eaten hometown food for many years. Nangong Yu sighed secretly and nodded: "Of course you can, even if you finish eating and make another one, it's no problem." Haiqiong hurriedly said: "No, no, there is no need to waste, just leftovers." ”

The two of them were speechless for a while, and Nangong Yu was speechless and said, "Who else is there in Miss Hai's family?" Haiqiong said: "There is also a mother." Brother, sister-in-law and niece. Nangong Yu said: "Do they still live in Qiongzhou now?" Haiqiong said: "No, my brother didn't want to take the exam again after he landed, so he was assigned by the government to Nanping, Fujian Province to teach him, and his mother also moved with his brother's family. Nangong Yu had heard Song Ming say these things earlier, and now he just wanted to lead Haiqiong to speak, and said: "Although the official position of the sect is small, after all, it is also eaten by the emperor, how can the girl live so hard, why doesn't your brother help you?" Haiqiong said: "My brother is an honest official, and the court is pitiful, and it is not easy to feed a family, how can I have spare money to help me." Nangong Yu smiled bitterly: "Speaking of crimes, no matter how big or small an official I am in the Ming Dynasty, it is impossible not to be greedy at all, corruption and bribery have become a kind of atmosphere, and even a deep-rooted officialdom culture, which is a major disease of my Ming Dynasty." Haiqiong said: "What Gongzi said is extremely true, Yue Fei once said, 'Civil officials do not love money, military attaches are not afraid of death, then the world is peaceful.'" 'The Southern Song Dynasty was also seriously greedy for ink, but Yue Fei was an exception, it can be seen that there is no absolute in everything, I can't say that others are officials, but my brother is definitely a clean official with clean sleeves and a righteous body. Nangong Yu said with a smile: "It's not that I want to have a fight with the girl, but a clean official is not necessarily a good official, and a good official is not necessarily a clean official, I don't know if the girl thinks so." Haiqiong said: "What Gongzi said is very true, but I firmly believe that my brother is both a clean official and a good official. Nangong Yu smiled and said, "It seems that the girl admires your brother very much." Haiqiong said: "Yes, my brother also has a local nickname called 'Haibi Stand', do you know the origin of this nickname?" Nangong Yu shook his head and said, "Please tell the girl." Haiqiong said: "Once the imperial history went to the county school to inspect, the teachers on both sides of my brother all knelt down and saluted, only my brother did not return, saying that this place is not a yamen, and it is inconvenient to bow down above the school. The people on both sides of him knelt, and he was the only one standing, and the shape was like a pen holder, from which the 'sea pen holder' came from. Nangong Yu said with a smile: "It seems that the girl's brother is not only a Qing official, but also a direct official. Now there are few good officials in the Ming Dynasty, there are few Qing officials, and even fewer direct officials. ”
