Linzhi Gongzi [Red Mansion]

Chapter 5 Chapter 5

Chang'an is really prosperous.

Wen Yishu sat on the second floor of the tavern, crossing his legs and looking out.Hua Shan was pouring tea for him, picked up the cup and smelled it, and sneered, "This tea is not as good as what our servants drink."

"What do you know?" Wen Yishu glanced at him idly, "As long as it tastes good, I can drink your grandfather's jasmine."

Heng Shan chimed in and made fun of Hua Shan, "Master's drink is full of atmosphere! You should drink this next to the curb. Everyone in this place will drink your Guzhu purple bamboo shoots, Linjiang Yujin, that's what grandpa said... That, what, nouveau riche!"

Hua Shan suddenly realized: "Oh! I understand! Then Gu Zhu Zisun and Linjiang Yujin have to drink in the master's study!"

Wen Yishu knocked on Huashan's head with his fan, and said with a smile, "You also know the master's study."

"That's right, my uncle's study is the most elegant place I've ever seen," Hua Shan said flatteringly.

Fortunately, no one heard these words, otherwise I don't know how to laugh at the arrogance of this master and two servants.

There are many showers in summer, and dark clouds will come over the city in a short while.The pedestrians and vendors below the restaurant all packed their things, or went to their homes or shops to take shelter from the rain.

Heng Shan went out to have a look, then turned around and asked, "Master, shall we go back?"

Wen Yishu shook his head, "I won't go back, I finally came out."

"You are just joking," Hua Shan teased, "If you want to come out, who will stop you?"

Wen Yishu smiled without saying a word, pointed to Huashan and said: "Go and order some food for the master, we will also taste the flavor of the capital."

Huashan responded and hurriedly went.

Suddenly, the heavy rain poured down, and the loud noise blurred the voices of people on the second floor of the tavern.It was as if there was a glass cover, and it was impossible to hear what the people inside said.The tavern clerk brought up the food and placed it in front of Wen Yishu.

Cold jellyfish skin, rouge goose breast, chicken marrow bamboo shoots, accompanied by a pot of Nanjiu.

Wen Yishu picked up the jug, and said strangely: "I thought the north was dry and cold, so I drank more shochu. I didn't expect there was southern wine..."

As he said, he tasted a little bit and pursed his lips, "It tastes good, it's a good wine."

Heng Shan gave him some vegetables, and said with a smile: "It's already summer, and you still drink soju, wouldn't it be too hot?"

"The taste of these bamboo shoots is delicious, I'll ask my sister to taste it next time," Wen Yishu chewed, feeling that his mouth was full of tenderness, and he was quite emotional.He wanted to bring Liang Yu back next time, but he also thought that Liang Yu, as the prince, had never been to any good restaurant in the capital, so why bother himself, so he covered the topic and didn't mention it.

I thought the rain would be over after a while, but I didn't expect it to get bigger and bigger.As the meal approached, there were more and more people in the tavern. Later, many people could only stand, without even a seat.I don't know what happened at the stairway, and it suddenly became noisy.It turned out that someone came first, but the waiting seat was taken away by others, and a dispute arose between the two sides.

The shopkeeper is not a timid person, so he kindly asked the person who occupied the seat without authorization to wait.But I didn't expect that person to refuse.

"Since Grandpa sat down first, it belongs to Grandpa! There is no reason to ask Uncle Xue to let me go! Get out of here!"

He yelled, and the person brought by Uncle Xue also became violent.

I have never seen someone who can open a tavern on Jinshi Street, so how can I be afraid of him, the unknown Uncle Xue.The shopkeeper sneered and made a gesture of invitation, "Then forgive me for not doing hospitality in this shop."

That Uncle Xue couldn't tolerate being so humiliated, he pointed at the servants and wanted to do something.Wen Yishu watched that Uncle Xue from the sidelines and smiled.He hooked his fingers to Hengshan and whispered a few words.Hearing what he said, Heng Shan was a little surprised but still walked over.

"Our master said that we are all here for dinner, so why bother to get angry. We still have a vacant seat, I wonder if this uncle Xue is willing to compete with my master for a seat?"

Xue Pan rolled his eyes and wanted to say, "What kind of thing are you, you dare to ask me to fight for the position."But he glanced inadvertently, and saw the figure sitting under the window.

Romantic appearance, passionate; seeming happy but not smiling, but still pretty when you are sad.

Half of his bones were broken in an instant, isn't this the young master he saw yesterday!So he immediately agreed, and regardless of the people around him, he raised his foot and rushed over.

Seeing that he had succeeded, Heng Shan made a bow to the shopkeeper and the flushed scholar who was robbed of his seat, and turned his head and left.Seeing that the matter was settled, the shopkeeper hurriedly invited the young master to take a seat, and went downstairs to entertain the guests.

This scholar was born with an extraordinary background, but he only brought two servants with him when he went out today.The servants of the scholar's family seem to be gentle and tight, and they can't quarrel with the arrogant ones.He was supported by his servant to sit down, but his eyes fell on the other side of the window.

"My lord, don't get angry," the two servants advised him.

The young master shook his head, bit his lower lip and said, "I'm not angry, it's just a pity."

He glanced at the window again, with a worried face, "Such a person can bear to sit at the same table with those muddy pigs and mangy dogs."

The boy wondered: "He is also trying to get out of the siege..."

"Oh, I don't know what you're talking about," he sighed, feeling more and more sorry for Wen Yishu, "If it wasn't for that villain, I really should make friends with him."

Knowing that their young master's sentimental problem has happened again, the two young men glanced at each other and stopped talking, hoping that his worries would pass away after a while.

Wen Yishu saw Xue Pan approaching impatiently, hooked the corners of his lips, and told Huashan to ask for a pot of wine again.Hengshan was very colorful, seeing Xue Pan rushing towards his grandfather, he quickly stopped him, and led him to sit opposite him.

Xue Pan has been obsessed with Wen Yishu ever since he met him outside the city yesterday, and regretted why he didn't ask him his name and where he lived.Unexpectedly, they were so predestined, so they ate at the same table the next day.He was reluctant to go to Beijing at first, but now he thinks that any place in the capital is good.

Seeing that the people on the opposite side were almost drooling at him, Wen Yishu just smiled and said: "I don't know what Brother Xue likes to eat, just ask them to go down and order."

Xue Pan hurriedly said: "How dare you ask the little brother to work, I will do it."

As he said that, he kicked his servant, told him to go down to order signature dishes, and very generously said that he paid for the meal.Wen Yishu's smile became more genuine when he heard the words, which is very kind.

Xue Pan was so bewildered by his smile that he became dizzy and lost his soul.He didn't find out Wen Yishu's name, so he got rid of his old background.

Wen Yishu propped his chin, and heard him say that he is a descendant of Ziwei Sheren, what a remarkable imperial businessman he is.How many shops in the capital belong to their Xue family.The Jingying Jiedushi is his uncle, and the wife of the second master in Rongguo's mansion is his aunt and so on.

The whole world knows about your situation.

Wen Yishu thought to himself, still smiling, took a glass of wine and said, "Since Mr. Xue is from Jinling, why did you go to Beijing? Could it be that he came to visit relatives?"

Xue Pan didn't hear the sarcasm in his words at all, and patted his thigh and said, "It was because of an unfortunate incident that I had no choice but to come up."

He probably also knew that beating people to death for no reason is not easy to talk about, so he buried his head in drinking after a few vague words.

"What do you mean by always talking about me? Where is the little brother from? Why did you go to Beijing? Who is there in the family? Are you married?" Xue Pan asked courteously.Seeing Wen Yishu's hand resting on the table, the fingers were long and white, and he really wanted to reach out and touch it.

Wen Yishu didn't intend to let him know about himself, he only said that he had no support in his family, and he went to Beijing only to catch up with the exam.His tone was sad and pitiful, and he said these things as if he was talking about how sad he was.It made Xue Pan's heart full of pity and pity, and he hurried to talk about sad things without needing to say more.

"When I first came to the capital, I didn't know anyone, and I didn't know where to go when I went out. It's really boring." Wen Yishu made a sad look, raised his soul-stirring eyes, and asked with a smile, "Brother Xue, do you know the capital city?" What are some good places to go?"

Xue Pan's whole body became hot from his gaze, and his hands were shaking. He wished he could hold him in his arms, and stammered, "I, I just came to the capital too. Also, there are still many things I don't know."

"That's it," Wen Yishu looked regretful, turned his head to look out the window, and stood up, "The rain has stopped, I should go back. Where is your home? I'll go back and find you."

Xue Pan originally wanted to stop him, but when he heard that Yi Shu would take the initiative to find him, his whole body itched with joy.He hurriedly told me the address of Lixiangyuan where he lived at the back of Rongguo Mansion, and explained in detail how to enter through the small door facing the street and so on.

Wen Yishu listened casually, saying that he already knew, waved his sleeves and left without a trace of cloud.Leaving Xue Pan like an idiot, he watched him leave in a daze.

·

Liangshan witnessed his young master fooling a fool with his own eyes, he didn't think it was funny, he just had a sad face.If the third master knew about this, he would have to take their skins off.The uncle definitely laughed like that at Xue Pan on purpose!

Hua Shan followed Wen Yishu, moaning, "Master, are you really going to find that Xue Pan?"

Wen Yishu seemed to be in a good mood, stepping on the bluestone slab under his feet, jumping step by step.Glancing at Hua Shan, he sneered, "Is there anything I can look for about that Xue Pan?"

"Yes, but... why did you ask him where he lives?"

"Nonsense!" Wen Yishu knocked him, "If I don't ask, should I wait for him to ask me? When he chases to the entrance of the alley, you beat him out?"

Could it be me? The one who was wronged by Huashan was obviously the one you provoked.

Heng Shan continued to worry, "Master, if the third master finds out about today's matter."

"How about he knows?" Wen Yishu turned to look at him with a smile, and the two mountains stood up straight in fright.

"Who did I go to meet? Did he agree to it?"

Hearing his words, Huashan Hengshan groaned in his heart.

It's over, I've poked Ni Lin.

Ouch, God bless, don't let the third master know!But don't fight!

However, it turns out that——

This is impossible.
