Jianghu are all masters

147.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was silent for a moment, then smiled innocently at Lin Yi again.

"We came out to eat together." Zhang Xiaoyuan said, "Does Uncle Lin want to come over?"

He was sure that Lin Yi would refuse.

How happy it is to make out and drink with beauties, why bother with these "fools"?

"You young people are lively and lively. If I go over, you will be cautious." Lin Yi stroked his mustache and smiled, "I won't follow over."

Zhang Xiaoyuan looked at the words "stupid apprentice" on the top of his head that hadn't disappeared, and then looked at his benevolent hypocrite smile, he couldn't help but feel upset, his mind turned, and suddenly he had a new idea.

"Uncle Lin is so kind to us, how could we be so cautious." Zhang Xiaoyuan continued to invite Lin Yi, "Could it be that Uncle Lin thinks our food is not good?"

Lin Yi was startled: "Of course I don't mean that."

Zhang Xiaoyuan blinked his eyes and said in a low voice: "This junior knows, but this junior has nothing to do."

Lin Yi didn't understand what he meant: "...what?"

"Uncle Lin knows my father, so he naturally knows what my family is like." Zhang Xiaoyuan's voice became smaller and smaller, "But when he is away from home... the conditions of the teacher's school are not good, and it is already a good time to eat in such a restaurant." It's been a happy day."

His tone was not miserable, as if he finished this sentence in a flat manner, he bowed to Lin Yi, and then pulled the bewildered Lu Zhaoming to go back. Lin Yi still had that kind-hearted smile of an elder on his face, The whole person was already stiff, as if a little at a loss.

Zhang Xiaoyuan thought he would catch up.

This is Baicang City, and there are martial arts people all over the place. If Lin Yi still wants the title of "True Gentleman", he will definitely stop him.

Sure enough, before Zhang Xiaoyuan limped and took two steps, Lin Yi had already stopped him.

"Brother Gao Ling and I have been brothers for many years, and we are also good friends with your master." Lin Yi touched Zhang Xiaoyuan's head lovingly, looking as if he couldn't bear it, "When you are still growing, you should eat more OK."

Zhang Xiaoyuan raised his head pitifully, and said, "Uncle Lin, I eat very well, and my seniors treat me well, and give me everything."

Lin Yi has already taken out a few bank notes from his sleeve: "This is the New Year's money that Uncle Lin gave you, take it back and buy some delicious food, don't starve yourself."

Zhang Xiaoyuan hurriedly shied away: "Uncle Lin! I can't take this!"

Lin Yi stuffed the bank note into his hand: "Silly boy, your father and I have a lifelong friendship, why are you being polite to me?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan seemed to be reluctant to nod, and accepted the bank note.

After Lin Yi finished speaking, he beckoned to the store clerk and asked him to add a few delicious dishes to Zhang Xiaoyuan and the others. The bill for the table of wine and food was all charged to his account, so he could pay for it.

Then he excused that there was someone waiting for him in the house, and went back to his private room under the admiration of the people around him for the true gentleman's integrity early in the morning.

Zhang Xiaoyuan smiled.

Very good, there are hundreds of taels of silver bills in his small purse, and now he has broken through the thousand taels!

Wang Henian's stupid apprentice?Who is the fool now?

Bah, can you scold my master and brother?

bad old man.

……

Hua Liuque and Jiang Jianyu, who were lying on the window frame watching the play, were already stunned.

Zhang Xiaoyuan pulled Lu Zhaoming back to the private room, closed the door, and then Lu Zhaoming came back to his senses, a little shocked, and asked: "Xiao Yuan, how can you say that?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan blinked innocently: "What did I say?"

Everything he said was completely true.

It's just a combination of those truths, and then hiding some of them, and telling them in a specific place, Lin Yi obediently pays for it.

Besides, it was Lin Yi who scolded them for being stupid first, and Zhang Xiaoyuan felt that there was nothing wrong with what he did.

Jiang Jianyu slowly came back to his senses: "Junior brother, amazing!"

He stretched out his thumb to Zhang Xiaoyuan, and seemed unable to say anything else.

Hualiuque opened her mouth wide, and asked after a long time, "Xiao Yuan, are you interested in becoming the most shining prodigal with me in this Jianghu?"

Before Zhang Xiaoyuan could speak, Lu Zhaoming had already answered for him: "He's not interested."

Hualiuque trembled all over, clutching her legs, and stepped aside obediently.

Ashaner turned his head in a daze: "What did they say just now? I didn't understand."

Cao Zilian: "I don't quite understand either."

148.

The martial arts conference came to an end on the next day, and the birthday of Mei Ling'an, head of the Sanhua Palace, was approaching. Most of the sects who came here to participate in the martial arts conference would go to the Sanhua Palace together.

Zhang Xiaoyuan and the others are going to the Qianlong bank that the uncle said to get the birthday gift that the uncle has stored. The uncle's letter pointed them to a bank near Baicang City and Zhongzhou City. They had to go around and go to that bank to get things first. , and then go to Sanhua Palace.

Almost no one would deliberately take a long detour to the Sanhua Palace like them. The road is spacious, and Cao Zilian and Ashan'er also followed.

When they arrived in Zhongzhou City, the guards checked the passers-by as usual, and Zhang Xiaoyuan saw the familiar introduction from afar.

It turned out to be Mei Len'an and Ke Xingwen.

He looked left and right, there was no second Sanhua Palace disciple nearby, it was really strange that the two of them came here secretly.

It just so happened that Mei Len'an smiled brightly, and looked back.

He met Zhang Xiaoyuan's eyes.

Melania: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Originally wanting to wait, Mei Len'an turned his head blankly, stuffed a large ingot of silver into the hand of the elder guard, and quickly passed the gate of Zhongzhou City.

……

Zhang Xiaoyuan was preoccupied, and found an inn in the city to stay in, while thinking in his heart, maybe Mei Len'an and Ke Xingwen wanted to go out together in private, that's why they got together in private.

What about Melania has nothing to do with him.

Seeing that the senior brother took out the letter from the senior uncle, he hurriedly followed, and wanted to go with the senior senior brother to collect the birthday gift.

The wound on his knee had scabbed over the past few days, and the pain was basically gone. He happily followed Lu Zhaoming to the bank. Seeing Lu Zhaoming hand over the letter from his uncle to the shopkeeper of the bank, the shopkeeper took a look. Zhang Xiaoyuan saw that the top of his head began to emit words frantically.

"A box of top-grade black and white pearls from the East China Sea, a piece of top-grade Hetian jade, a piece of millennium ganoderma, and a piece of Longdan incense... (omitted) there is no need to tell the letter-carrier what the gift is, wrap it up and give it to them."

There are too many words, Zhang Xiaoyuan doesn't want to read them.

Is this the happiness of the young owner of the richest man in Qianzhuang?Zhang Xiaoyuan couldn't afford any of these things.

They waited for the bank to wrap up the birthday gift, and handed over the large and small gift boxes to them. It would be fine for two people to take it, but if there was only one person, these things should not be taken back.

The poor Zhang Xiaoyuan sighed deeply.

They went back to the inn, carrying big bags and small bags and struggling to climb up the too narrow stairs of the inn, then Zhang Xiaoyuan turned his head and saw Melen'an leaning on the railing and stretching under the opposite veranda.

Melania: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Melanian stretched her waist halfway, and then froze completely.

After a while, he regained his composure, his expression was dignified but his movements were quick, wishing he could quickly return to the room, and shut the door hard with a slam.

Lu Zhaoming also saw it.

He couldn't help asking: "Is that Senior Mei?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan twitched the corner of his mouth, forced a smile: "It's him."

Lu Zhaoming: "What is he doing here?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan smiled wryly: "Not only him, Ke Xingwen is also here."

Lu Zhaoming: "..."

Lu Zhaoming seems to have learned a little more cleverly recently, when Zhang Xiaoyuan mentioned these two names, he immediately understood.

He was a little embarrassed.

"Isn't it better for us to avoid them?" Lu Zhaoming asked sincerely. He seemed to have regarded Zhang Xiaoyuan as a master in dealing with these matters. "Senior Mei has seen us, and there may be a misunderstanding."

Zhang Xiaoyuan also nodded deeply: "I also think there may be a misunderstanding."

They had run into Melen Ann twice in a row, and even though it was a complete coincidence, it would be bad if Melen Ann misunderstood that they were following him.

Besides, there is still Hualiuque in their group. The relationship between Sanhua Palace and Hualiuque is subtle. They were still discussing the day before yesterday. Staying in the nearby towns, they returned to the division after attending the birthday banquet.

Zhang Xiaoyuan thought for a while, and said to Lu Zhaoming: "Why don't we leave early tomorrow morning? Let's avoid them first."

Lu Zhaoming nodded, thinking it was a good idea.

In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, Lu Zhaoming woke everyone up.

They loaded the car behind the inn, Jiang Jianyu yawned one after another, muttering, "Is it necessary to leave so early?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan was also sleepy.

His mind was dizzy, and last night was another night where he couldn't sleep well because of the noise of the second senior brother next door. He couldn't help but yawned a lot. The yawn was halfway through, and it hadn't closed yet. He opened his mouth, and he caught a glimpse of the two walking towards the backyard in a hurry.

The two men were carrying their burdens, as if they were going to set up a car, Zhang Xiaoyuan rubbed his eyes, and fell into complete silence after seeing who it was.

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Melania: "..."

Ke Xingwen: "..."

The courtyard was extremely quiet.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what to do.

It was Zhang Xiaoyuan who took a deep breath and spoke first.

"What a coincidence." He said dryly, "Senior Mei, Shaoxia Ke."

Melania: "..."

He even took the initiative to say hello, Ke Xingwen naturally had to respond, his smile looked awkward, and he said, "It's a coincidence, what are you doing here?"

"We... came to the bank to get some things." Zhang Xiaoyuan couldn't help but yawned again, asking, "What about you?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

He wanted to slap himself in the mouth.

Ahhh, he must be too sleepy to say such stupid things!

How did Ke Xingwen and Mei Len'an answer this!

Ke Xingwen really remained silent, and in the end it was Mei Len'an who explained, "I heard that the scenery around here is beautiful, so I wanted to come and have a look. Master goes out, so of course the apprentice has to accompany him."

Zhang Xiaoyuan nodded stiffly: "That's right."

For some reason, everyone in the courtyard seemed to be more embarrassed.

Zhang Xiaoyuan turned his head and said to Lu Zhaoming: "Brother, how about we rest for two days before leaving?"

Over there, Mei Len'an happened to say to Ke Xingwen: "The scenery here is nice, why don't we stay for two days before leaving."

Melania: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Mei Len'an: "Forget it, as a teacher, I want to go back now."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "Let's go now!"

Melania: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

They are always speaking at the same time, saying words of similar meaning.In fact, to be honest, there is only one road to Sanhua Palace. If they set off at similar times, they will always meet.

Ke Xingwen couldn't laugh or cry.

He pulled Lamelen'an's arm, then politely saluted with everyone, and finally said politely to Zhang Xiaoyuan: "Zhang Shaoxia, since it's such a coincidence, we might as well walk together for the rest of the journey."
