Xie Jingxi listened to this, smiled slightly, and said: "Thank you for your trust and support! Now that Xie Fu is in trouble, it is still relying on your concerted efforts to resolve the crisis. When it comes to 'internal tightness', it is necessary to have a 'loose outside' to be more perfect. Now there are a few things to do!"

Gao Yuntian and Xie Yizhi said in unison: "Listen to the master's orders!"

Xie Jingxi said: "The first item, in the name of thanks, to entertain colleagues, the mother of the fairy died, colleagues are very concerned, three years of filial piety, since they can not meet guests, this three years have passed, when the colleagues are thanked." In addition, if we have good relations with officials in Quanzhou Prefecture, we can also spread the news to the rivers and lakes, although I Xie Jingxi has not been able to establish outstanding meritorious service as my ancestors, but now Xie Mansion still has some prestige in the officialdom, and if I want to challenge Xie Mansion, I still need to have some scruples. Although the affairs of the rivers and lakes must be resolved in the form of the rivers and lakes, and cannot be confronted by official forces, the Xie Mansion has more connections in the officialdom and has its own influence, and if people from the official want to put pressure on the Xie Mansion, they must also weigh it. At the same time, I will write to my close friends in Kyoto and my friends in the DPRK and China to discuss countermeasures. ”

Mr. Lin said: "This strategy is very wonderful, and it will definitely have remarkable results, but can we also invite some social elites to make Xie Fu strong?"

"This is the second item I want to mention, I plan to visit Qingyuan Academy in the near future, and take the opportunity to invite social elites to the college. Xie Jingxi continued: "Qingyuan Academy was built with donations from the Xie Mansion, and I went to the academy as both a guest and a host, and to the mountain chief and the teacher, I was a guest of honor; for the social elites who were invited, I was also the master, so it was of greater significance to meet the virtuous people in the academy! Besides, in the Xie Mansion, you should not invite too many people, otherwise the invited officials will feel that their status has been lowered, and then the expected effect of the banquet will not be achieved." ”

The three people present all praised Xie Jingxi for being thoughtful and prudent, and said that they would do what Master Xie told him.

Gao Yuntian arranged for the Xie Mansion to go to the nursing home.

Xie Yizhi instructed to go down and arrange a bedroom for Mr. Lin, and then he was busy answering the banquet for Mr. Xie.

At the end of the day, Lin Hexuan carried the medicine box on his back, and the people who went with Xie Fu brought some supplies for him and returned to Xie Mansion together.

Walking into the "Erluo" of Xie Mansion, when he entered the bedroom arranged for him by the housekeeper, he saw a young scholar dressed elegantly inside, sitting on the Nanmu chair waiting for him.

"Master is back, the student is polite!" It turned out that Xie Wende had been waiting here for a long time after listening to his father's instructions.

Lin Hexuan took a closer look, the Xie Gongzi in front of him, slender figure, slightly thin, but not weak, noble and elegant temperament, soft and handsome; under a white dress, the skin is white and delicate, the long black hair naturally droops, showing an elegant posture; delicate facial features, a slightly red face in white, giving people a handsome impression; a pair of clear and bright eyes, revealing aura, a straight nose bridge, revealing a little firm; the lips are ruddy, still in motion, still moving in silence, and the voice is soft and rigid.

However, the humble words he spoke to Mr. Lin did not make people feel that he was mature, but made people feel that he was a little childish.

Lin Hexuan liked this handsome Gongzi Xie very much, and hurriedly said: "Gongzi Xie is polite, how can he be old and decrepit, dare to drive Gongzi so politely!"

After Xie Gongzi invited Master to sit down, he said:

"It is a great blessing for the students that the Master was able to condescend to the Xie Mansion! After that, the students can always ask the Master for advice. I heard my father say that the master is only eight buckets high, rich in learning, full of economy, students can always follow the master's side, will be able to gain a lot, please master always give advice!"

Lin Hexuan saw that Gongzi Xie was polite, studious, and smart, but he was angry with his books, like a delicate flower indoors, and had not encountered wind and rain, so he said: "Entrusted by Master Xie, the old man should do his best, and I hope that Gongzi Xie can devote himself wholeheartedly to his studies!"

"Follow Master's teachings!"

In fact, this young man of the wealthy mansion who is still involved in the world, does not know the real intention of his father to invite Lin Hexuan, Lin Hexuan is not only the old man hired by Xie Fu all the year round, but also Xie Jingxi's best friend, the two have had the experience of sharing weal and woe, many years ago, the two had escaped death in a mountain and the battle with the wicked people in the rivers and lakes, so they formed a deep friendship.

In Xie Mansion, Lin Hexuan knows Xie Jingxi best, and in Quanzhou Mansion, Xie Jingxi also knows Lin Hexuan best.

In addition to his medical skills, Lin Hexuan is also a hidden martial arts master, and his "Flying Feather Flying Crane Fist" is very superb, and it is difficult to meet opponents. In fact, the most important purpose of Xie Jingxi's invitation to Lin Hexuan to live in Xie Mansion this time was to protect Xie Wende, and the purpose of teaching him to read the scriptures and study the scriptures was secondary.

However, after carefully observing Xie Wende just now, Lin Hexuan had a new idea, and this idea became stronger and stronger.

Two days later, Xie Jingxi went to the Yamen of Quanzhou Mansion to discuss with Yin Wu Xiuwen of Quanzhou Mansion about the Xie Mansion holding a thank-you banquet.

Xie Fu is calm. In the middle of the day, Xie Jiahui, the maid of Xie Mansion, wanted to go to the street to buy some sewing supplies according to the instructions of the hostess Guo Huizhi, and she called Yang Feiyang to go with her.

"Little lamb! Madame asked me to go shopping, come with me!" Relying on Mrs. and Miss to love her, Xiaohui is always arrogant to Yang Feiyang, Yang Feiyang also let her, the nickname "Little Lamb" was also given by her, Yang Feiyang was very angry at first, and later got used to it. Xiao Hui is straightforward, and his impression of her is getting better and better.

Yang Feiyang asked Gongzi Xie, there was nothing to do at this time, so he went out with Xiaohui.

The street market near the bell tower of Quanzhou Mansion was very busy, and they went straight there. On the marble paved street, there are many shops, the pedestrians on the street are endless, the pedestrians' voices, the hawkers' shouting are mixed together, noisy and lively, Xiao Huidong looks at the west and looks, chirps, Yang Feiyang asked her to quickly find a shop, there happens to be a needlework shop not far away, they bought needlework, and are about to go back, only to see not far from the bell tower, there are many people watching there, I don't know what they are looking at.

Xiaohui was very good, and insisted on going to see it, but Yang Feiyang had no choice but to follow her, and they squeezed in to take a look, it turned out to be a Taoist priest who was telling fortunes.

Yang Feiyang took a closer look, and saw an old man, sitting behind the divination table, with a tube of sticks on the table, a banner behind him, wearing a purple yang scarf, wearing a gossip robe, his face was ruddy, his demeanor was elegant, especially a pair of eyes, shooting a sharp light. He is interpreting the eight-character numerology for people and predicting good luck and evil.

Listening to the onlookers, this Taoist priest is from Longhu Mountain, Jiangxi, the physiognomy is clever, the measurement is particularly accurate, just now has measured some people, everyone praises its magic.

At this moment, an old beggar, dressed in rags and with his hair covering his face, limped with an old cane and a rag bag, his face sallow and his eyes glazed. When he went inside, everyone avoided him because it was dirty and smelly.

When the Taoist priest saw it, he called the beggar over and stared at him, and the beggar felt very strange and looked at the Taoist priest as well. The Taoist priest said: "This benefactor, this year, there are three out of fifty, right? When he was eight years old, his parents died, he became a monk at the age of ten, and when he was twenty or three years old, he had no children because he had not yet forgotten his heart, and he married a common man, and he had no heirs, and his wife died of illness five years ago.

The old beggar was very surprised: "How can this old man say my business accurately?"

When the old Taoist priest saw that he was surprised, he changed his words and said to the beggar: "The donor has quit gambling and charity in recent years, and the robbery has passed.

The old beggar was extremely happy when he heard this, and thanked him again and again! He thought for a moment, and said to the old Taoist priest very embarrassedly:

"The Taoist chief measured the words for me, the old beggar, and the old beggar was very grateful! But the little old man didn't even have a penny, so he didn't know how to thank the Taoist chief?" said the old beggar.

The crowd laughed.

The old Taoist priest said: "How can the old Taoist ask for your money, it's just that you and I have a fate, cause and effect are natural, please do more good deeds in the future, and you will have good rewards!"

The crowd of onlookers was secretly amazed by the Taoist priest's calculations. Xiao Hui clapped her hands and praised her, she wanted to rush forward to let the Taoist priest calculate, Yang Feiyang hurriedly stopped her, and said: "Hugh has to make a time, Mrs. is waiting for needlework at home, Hugh is messing around, go back to the house quickly!" Xiao Hui made a fuss for a while before reluctantly returning home with Yang Feiyang.

Back at Xie Mansion, Xiao Hui told Mrs. Guo about the Taoist priest's miraculous calculation, and he said it vividly. Mrs. Guo has been bored recently, there have been several strange things in Xie Mansion recently, she knows very well in her heart, she doesn't say it, she is depressed and distressed, she is quite worried about the future of Xie Mansion, and when she heard Xiao Hui say it, she suddenly became interested.

Mrs. Guo pondered for a moment, and asked Xiaohui to come and see her.

"Madame Anfu, little one greets you!" Yang Feiyang said when he came in.

"Feiyang, I heard that you have met a Taoist who is skilled in physiognomy, you go and get eight taels of silver from the housekeeper, and go and invite the Taoist priest to come to the mansion!" said the lady.

"The little one will do it, but the little one has the courage to build yì, and it is enough to give the old Taoist priest five taels of silver, so much to give eight taels?"

"Measuring Taoist priests all talk about gossip, measure eight characters, and give him eight taels, which has its own meaning, and Taoist priests naturally understand, so that as soon as you ask, he will come. Mrs. Guo admired Yang Feiyang's habit of using her brain, and she explained it to him.

"Madame Gaoming, the little one is gone!" Yang Feiyang finished speaking and walked out of the door. Xiao Hui shouted: "Okay! Okay! Now you can appreciate the Taoist priest's tricks again! Great!"

More than an hour later, Yang Feiyang came back and said: "Madame is on top, the little one is not doing things well, the old way is too big, the little one has said all the good things, he just doesn't come, and he also said that if he wants to come to the house, at least the master has to go and invite him personally, if the master is busy, he has to ask the housekeeper to invite him! The little one had to come back and talk back, and asked Mrs. to forgive the sins!"

Mrs. Guo thought to herself, only those who have high Taoist skills dare to put on a stand, it seems that this Taoist priest really has some ability. She said to Yang Feiyang: "It's not your fault, it's my negligence, all those who have real talent and real learning need to be respected!
