Rice bug

Chen Nanhai still had something stuffed in his mouth. Seeing other people looking over, he stretched out his fan and covered half of his face, trying to swallow.

Holding the wine glass, Shi Chengjie glanced at him, but couldn't say what he meant, so he just answered, "Yes."

Ouyang Hua said with a smile: "Sure enough, things gather like birds and people form groups. Mr. Shi is young and promising, and the people he acquainted with are also elegant gentlemen."

As he spoke, he looked at Lin Dong, seemingly curious, "Is this young master...?"

Lin Dong said: "Xia Lin, I'm...Young Master's book boy."

The young master he mentioned naturally referred to Chen Nanhai next to him.

Chen Nanhai looked very noble, and it was reasonable to have a book boy. Ouyang Hua nodded and praised, "Mr. Chen, right? A book boy next to him looks like a jade doll next to a Bodhisattva. It's really amazing."

Chen Nanhai swallowed the food at this time, reached out and wiped the corner of his mouth gracefully with the square scarf in his arms, put down his fan and said with a smile: "Master Ouyang has won the prize, my family is just an ordinary businessman, and can't be compared with Ouyang's family."

This means, of course, alluding to the luxury that can be seen everywhere in Ouyang's mansion.

Ouyang Hua is not humble either, he laughed, "This is our ancestral heritage accumulated by three generations." At this point, he changed the subject, looked at Shi Chengjie, and said, "Master Shi, I actually have something I want to talk to you alone. I don't know if it's possible...?"

Oh oh, here comes the main show!Chen Nanhai and Lin Dong glanced at each other, and they both saw curiosity in each other's eyes.

Shi Chengjie put down his glass and nodded calmly, "Of course."

Ouyang Hua got up first, flicked the hem of his clothes with one hand, and said, "Please."

Shi Chengjie glanced at Lin Dong and Lin Dong, then got up, and the two passed through the crowd, and quickly went to the direction behind.

Lin Dong bit a duck wing and said, "Wait here? Or go to eavesdrop?"

Chen Nanhai thought for a while, "You wait for me here."

After speaking, he got up and went in the opposite direction.

Lin Dong naturally believed in Chen Nanhai's kung fu, eavesdropping should be a trivial matter.He was not in a hurry, and sat on the spot while eating and drinking grape juice.

Ouyang Hua specially ordered this grape juice for him. It is shocking that there are grapes hidden in the Ouyang Mansion in winter, and these grape juices are specially brewed into fruit drinks, with a strong grape aroma. A little sour and a little sweet, the taste is not bad.

On the other side, Chen Nanhai came out of the front courtyard, using the excuse of going to the toilet to avoid the servants, then he used light skills to easily climb over the wall and over the courtyard, and chased to the backyard where the two of Ouyang went.

Speaking of the backyard, there are many forks in the road. This Ouyang Mansion is simply a huge maze.Chen Nanhai slandered Ouyang's family, wouldn't they get lost?While sneaking around, looking around.

Fortunately, the two of Ouyang were not walking fast, and Chen Nanhai quickly caught up with them.The two of them walked across a bluestone path, bypassed another small pavilion, and entered a separate small room in front. He landed lightly on the top of the pavilion, squatting there, looking out of nowhere.

"Please." Ouyang Hua pushed open the door, first invited Shi Chengjie to enter the room, followed by himself, and closed the door.

Chen Nanhai looked left and right to see if there was no one there, guessing it was Ouyang Hua's screen backed away.This was convenient, he rolled over lightly and fell to the ground without making a sound, his feet hooked on the beams, bent down, and stretched out his hand to lightly poke a hole in the paper window.

Inside the house, Ouyang Hua was lighting the lamp, and a small piece of orange light was projected on the window.

Shi Chengjie found a chair and sat down while looking around the room.It looks like a small bookstore, surrounded by bookshelves, various thick classics are placed, and landscape paintings are hung on the walls.

Ouyang Hua pulled another chair and sat down, coughed for a while, took out a small medicine bottle from his bosom, poured out a pill and swallowed it.

Seeing Shi Chengjie staring at the medicine bottle, he said, "It's a stubborn illness, it can't be cured, and it can only be dragged on by medicine."

Shi Chengjie frowned, Ouyang Hua waved his hands and smiled, "It's not a serious illness, it's not a problem, Master Shi is like this, I'm flattered."

Shi Chengjie was not good at words, and when he heard the words, he just nodded and didn't answer.

As if he had figured out this person's temperament long ago, Ouyang Hua stuffed the medicine bottle back into his bosom, and said, "This is my personal request, and I'm just an ordinary businessman. One of them. Master Shi is a god arrester and pleads for the people, so I..." He paused, and then continued: "I wonder if Master Shi can listen to me?"

Shi Chengjie nodded, and Ouyang Hua said: "Three generations of my ancestors have been businessmen, Mr. Shi must have known about it. Now I have descendants, but business is no longer so easy to do. Not to mention anything else, I just want to let my family live Be better, at least the family business will not be lost in my hands, and the children will not be involved."

Shi Chengjie nodded silently, "It's human nature."

Ouyang Hua breathed a sigh of relief, and said slowly, "It's great that Mr. Shi can understand, then... here I am..."

As he spoke, he stood up and took out a small square box from the shelf behind him.The appearance of this small box was pitch black, and nothing could be seen, but when Ouyang Hua opened it, Shi Chengjie and Chen Nanhai were dumbfounded.

……

Zang Feilong waited in the inn for a long time but didn't see Lin Dong and the others coming back, and his heart was always up and down.

Ouyang Hua's "sexy" appearance always comes to mind.

At this time, the inn was surrounded by mist and hot air, Zang Feilong sat by the window in a daze, while Mei Lu, who was soaking in hot water to suppress his shock, was a little nervous on the other side of the screen.

He peeked at the man by the window through the gap in the screen. He looked fierce, but at this moment he looked a little cute in a daze.

Like some kind of huge bear, or big dog, stupid.

"You...why did you promise my grandpa?" Mei Lu asked while pinching the handkerchief with his fingers, patting the water gently.

Zang Feilong didn't turn his head back, and said flatly: "It's a coincidence."

"Coincidence?" Mei Lu pursed his lips, leaned on the edge of the barrel, and said softly, "So...you just happened to meet my grandfather?"

"That's it."

Mei Lu was a little ashamed, but also a little happy.Is this the so-called fate?

It's no wonder that Mei Lu thinks so. He grew up gentle, not to mention Zhang Zijian, and there are several boys of the same age in the village who also have a good impression of him.

At that time, they didn't know what the goodness of Longyang and the addiction to broken sleeves were, but it was just a spontaneous emotion.

Mei Lu is seventeen years old this year, and he once liked a boy in the village who was three years older than him, who was quite similar to Zang Feilong in temperament.

When he was taken away by Zhang Zijian, he once thought that he would become Zhang Zijian's male favourite. He was already desperate, but he was sent to Hangzhou overnight, away from his family, and was locked up in Ouyang Mansion alone.

During these days in Ouyang's mansion, Ouyang Hua never came to see him. He heard people say that Ouyang Hua had too many male favorites, or that Master Ouyang was too busy to take care of him.

No matter what, he never hoped in his life that he could still live the life he wanted and be free.

But so suddenly, a hero came down, domineering and tough, and wanted to take him away.

...just like the one sung in the play.

Thinking of this, Mei Lu was suddenly a little happy and a little excited.When it comes to appearance, although he is not beautiful and charming, but he is also delicate and gentle, and he will never disobey others.Maybe after getting along for a long time, Zang Feilong would also like him, and seeing people like Zang Feilong, he should like to be obedient.

While twisting the handkerchief in his hand, Mei Lu was still fantasizing, that Zang Feilong suddenly stood up, opened the door and hurried out.

He was startled, and hurriedly got up to get dressed, the cold wind came in through the open door, making him shiver.

When he just turned out from behind the screen and was fastening his belt, footsteps and voices could be heard outside the door.

"Didn't I tell you not to go out?" The voice of blame belonged to Zang Feilong.

Just as Mei Lu was about to speak, the voice of answering the conversation suddenly interrupted.

"I just went to check on the situation, and I didn't do anything. Ah, Brother Fei Long, this is a snack I secretly brought to you."

A warm and pleasant voice, a little crisp, just listening to the voice, I feel that the person coming must be very cute.

Mei Lu was suddenly a little embarrassed, and stood where he was, with his hand still holding his belt.

The two had already entered the door.

Lin Dong's voice stopped abruptly when he saw Mei Lu.

Mei Lu also looked straight at Lin Dong, and the room suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

Only Zang Feilong didn't notice at all, while taking the things in Lin Dong's hand, he wrapped his arms around Lin Dong's shoulders, "I'm really flattered that you still think of me when you eat."

Lin Dong withdrew his appreciative gaze, raised a smile and said, "Hi, you are Mei Bo's grandson, right? My name is Lin...Xiao."

"You... good." Mei Lu's face was a little hot, and while he hurriedly put on his clothes, he wrapped the handkerchief around his hair and dried it vigorously.

Lin Dong closed the door to stop the chilly air.The temperature in the room that was still there before suddenly dropped a lot.

"What's your name?" Lin Dong sat on a chair and poured himself a cup of hot tea.

"Mei Lu." Mei Lu replied, looking back and forth between Lin Dong and Zang Feilong.

Zang Feilong took a few mouthfuls of snacks, but he didn't think there was anything particularly delicious.

While asking: "Where are Chen Nanhai and the others?"

"They haven't come back yet? The banquet is over." Lin Dong said: "Maybe they are still entertaining alone at Ouyang Mansion."

Zang Feilong snorted, "What should I do next?"

"What do you mean?"

"He." Zang Feilong pointed at Mei Lu, "Where are you going to send him?"

Mei Lu became nervous all of a sudden, and unconsciously clenched his sleeves with his fingers.

Lin Dong looked at Mei Lu: "Where do you want to go?"

Mei Lu opened his mouth, "I... I don't know, if grandpa doesn't let me go back... I, I have no home..."

Lin Dong also felt a little embarrassed, and was thinking, when Mei Lu suddenly said: "No, can't you let me follow you?"

Zang Feilong refused without thinking, "No, no, we still have important things to do."

"I won't cause trouble." Mei Lu took a few steps forward and said in a hurry: "I, I can do everything, cooking and washing, and I am not afraid of hardship or tiredness. I will definitely not cause trouble."

Lin Dong looked at Mei Lu, and found that the other party was looking at him inadvertently, and suddenly understood something in his heart.

Zang Feilong was impatient, "If you say you can't do it, you can't do it. I'll send you there in a few days..."

"Let's talk about this later." Lin Dong said suddenly.

"Ah?" Zang Feilong was a little puzzled.

"I don't have time to send him away now, and we have to avoid complications, just in case Ouyang Hua sends someone to look for him..."

Zang Feilong touched the back of his neck, "It's really troublesome."

"We'll take him with us when we leave Hangzhou. We'll see where we want to send it."

Zang Feilong had no choice but to nod, "It's what you say..."

Mei Lu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but felt a little embarrassed, so he glanced at Lin Dong.

Lin Dong just gave him a gentle and lovely smile, and absolute sincerity was written in those dark pupils.
