Another day at the pawn shop.

Xiao Ning was planning to go back home without finding anything, but before he walked out of the pawn shop, he bumped into a person, that person was petite and looked to be only eight or nine years old.

The child was knocked down to the ground, clutching his forehead in pain.

Xiao Ning helped him up, and just as he asked if there was anything wrong, someone called him from behind.

"Xiao Ning?"

Xiao Ning looked back and lowered her head slightly: "Master Lou."

Lou Mian nodded with a smile, and asked, "I saw you again at the pawn shop, did Rong Rong let you come?"

Before Xiao Ning could speak, Lou Fang approached again and asked, "Are you looking for something? You can tell me, maybe I can help you find it."

Xiao Ning shook her head and declined: "No need for Master Lou, just come and have a look. If there is nothing wrong, I will go back to the house first."

Lou Fang didn't let him go so easily, he followed up and asked Shen Lirong when he was free, and went for an outing together.

Xiao Ning frowned imperceptibly, somewhat resisting the other party's frequent visits to her young master.

The young master doesn't like young master Lou at all, why does the other party ask the young master to go out all the time when he has nothing to do?The last time I called the young master out and drank some wine, the young master was not feeling well all night.

No matter what Lou Fang said, Xiao Ning You refused to enter without hesitation.

Xiao Gu, who was next to Lou Fang, reminded him that it was only when Lou Fang realized that he had business to do, so he had to let Xiao Ning leave with regret.

During their entanglement, the child who was knocked down took a piece of jade and pawned it to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was sitting in a lazy posture, but after seeing the fineness of the jade, he immediately sat upright, relying on the child's ignorance, accepted it at a very low price, and gave the silver with a smile.

Suddenly, the shopkeeper found that this jade seemed familiar.

...It seems to be the piece of jade that the Shen family has been looking for.

The shopkeeper was afraid that he hadn't seen it clearly, and when he was about to take a closer look, Lou Fang came over.

He quickly put it away.

Lou Fang made an appointment with the shopkeeper to deliver the goods in ten days. Lou's family received a lot of good things from that adult in the past few days, all of which were traded through this pawn shop.

After finishing the work, Lou Mian couldn't help asking him: "Is the Shen family looking for something?"

The shopkeeper and Lou Mian were also familiar with each other, so he said directly: "It is said that I am looking for a piece of jade with four digits engraved on it, as long as there are four digits, I will give it to Young Master Shen."

"number?"

The shopkeeper nodded, because of his friendship with the Lou family, he could only say so much, and he couldn't even see in front of him whether the piece of jade just now was found by Young Master Shen.

Lou Man nodded: "Then you should pay more attention, don't be vague about what the Shen family wants."

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "It's only natural."

After Lou Fang left, the shopkeeper took out the piece of jade again, and found that there was indeed something engraved on it, but it was four strange symbols, and there was no so-called number.

The shopkeeper shook his head, collected the jade, and planned to sell it at a high price.

As soon as Lou Fang came out of the pawn shop, he was hijacked by someone with a knife in an alley.

As the young master of the Lou family, everyone in Qinglang County knows everyone, and as the son of a famous general myself, I have high-strength martial arts by my side, so naturally I would not bring a peerless master to protect me in the dark when I go out on weekdays.

Lou Fang pretended to be astonished, intending to grab the other party's throat with one hand while the other party was not paying attention, but unexpectedly the other party was faster.

Get knocked down faster.

Lou Fang was really astonished.

Turning around, I saw a young man standing at the entrance of the alley, with his sword behind his back, the cold wind blowing from the alley, blowing his thin fine clothes, standing gracefully.

Lou Mian narrowed his eyes and smiled: "This young master...?"

"It's nothing, I just saw that this thief was planning to attack you, brother, so I took action."

Xi Baimian's expression was natural, as if he really drew his sword to help because he saw a rough road.

Lou Mian looked him up and down, and after a long time, he bent his lips and smiled again: "Thank you, young master."

Xi Baimian waved his hand: "No need, but I saw this thief sneaking around just now, so I came over anxiously to see, all my wontons were spilled on the ground."

Seeming to be a pity, Xi Baimian shook his head.

Lou Fang's father was a military officer, but Lou Fang was very good at observing words and demeanor, upon seeing this, he invited: "Since that's the case, why don't Ruo benefactor come to my house for a meal?"

Xiao Gu who was standing behind Lou Mian was stunned for a moment, and moved his toes, but was blocked by Lou Mian's hand behind his back.

Xi Baimian thought for a while, then hesitated before agreeing: "Then thank you very much, brother."

After successfully sneaking into the mansion, Xi Baimian was very calm, and sat there waiting for the kitchen to cook for him.

Lou Fang greeted him and went out.

Xiao Gu was waiting outside, and when he saw his young master coming out, he quickly went up and asked, "Master, this person's origin is obviously unknown, why..."

Lou Fang raised his hand and interrupted him: "I know they came for us, but that person seems to be a monk."

Xiao Gu didn't see it, and asked: "How did the young master know?"

"The way we ordinary people hold swords is different from that of monks. When he put down the sword just now, the palm and the hilt were separated. You also practice martial arts. Can you hold the sword in the air?"

Xiao Gu didn't notice such a subtle place at all, and secretly exclaimed: "That's how it is."

Lou Fang explained again: "It's not bad for us to make more friends with monks. That adult is also a monk, so he is very strong."

Only at this time did Xiaogu feel relieved, nodded and said, "Then I'll go to the back kitchen and tell them to serve the food quickly."

Lou Fang shook his head: "There is no need to serve food, do you think he really came to our Lou's house for dinner? Probably something happened, we will find out later."

After Master Lou finished speaking, he told Xiao Gu to go and see how the snow leopard was doing, and then went back.

As Lou Fang expected, Xi Baimian did not come to eat.

After introducing themselves to each other, the two called each other brothers and sisters hypocritically and affectionately.

Xi Baimian sighed: "It's really hard to be a swordsman now. I was a thug before, and the other party terminated my contract not long after."

Lou Fang followed his words and said in surprise: "Brother Xi is so good at it, how can that person not cherish it so much?"

Xi Baimian sighed again: "That's why I say it's hard to be a swordsman. After I have a meal here later, I'll have to look around for places to fight."

Lou Mian thought about what he said, and realized that the other party seemed to want to recommend himself, so he couldn't help laughing.

If this person directly said that he was a monk, would many people want him?A monk is an existence beyond the reach of most people in the mortal world, and he can basically be regarded as a door god.

Why hide your identity and lower yourself?

But since it was delivered to the door, his Lou family naturally had no reason not to want it.

Lou Fang followed his words and said, "Brother Xi, why don't you stay in my house as a thug?"

Xi Baimian shook his head and refused: "How can this be done? My strength is not enough."

Lou Fang knocked on the table: "Why not? What if I meet those thieves again when I go out? Brother Xi, don't be humble."

Xi Baimian only made a few symbolic prevarications, and then readily accepted.

When Lou Fang thought that he came to the Lou family as a thug just to find something new, the other party made him silent.

"Master Lou, in fact, I have heard about you in the market for a long time." Xi Baimian smiled, "It is said that you seem to have a sweetheart, who seems to be called... Shen what?"

Lou Fang stopped drinking tea, and looked at him with a pair of brown eyes, which were very clear and sharp.

After being silent for a while, Lou Fang raised his lips and said, "Indeed, that person is Shen Lirong from the Shen family."

His silence was not because the other party knew that he had a sweetheart - basically most of the people in Qinglang County knew about it.

Rather, the other party seemed to be aiming at Shen Lirong.

Another rival.

Lou Man finished drinking the tea calmly, he didn't see that when he said Shen Lirong's name, Xi Baimian's sweaty hands tightly squeezed in his sleeves trembled slightly, and he only looked at him calmly.

Lou Fang quickly said: "Rong Rong and I met two years ago, we are close friends, and there are still many things he gave me at the house."

As he said, he pointed to the green plant next to Xi Baimian: "The green radish was given to me by Rongrong, and he also gave me several poems with brilliant literary talents; I have admired him for a long time, and he likes me very much." The cat that was given to him was also named Mianmian."

After hearing this, Xi Baimian tightened his fingers instantly.

"Mianmian?"

Lou Man pursed his lips and smiled, as if he was rather shy: "Yes, Mian of Sleep may be the homonym of my name."

Lou Fang who said this completely forgot that Xi Baimian's Mian is Mianmian's Mian.

He said so many things close to Shen Lirong, just to show Xi Baimian that he has a great relationship with Shen Lirong, which is not comparable to that of a monk who just came to Qinglang County, so that he can be more acquainted.

Lou Fang didn't say it euphemistically, but he didn't see the disappointment on Xi Baimian's face as he wished, instead he still had a faint expression.

It seems that no matter what happens, Xi Baimian will always look calm and breezy, and his expression is the same when he pretends to draw his sword to help in the alley.

He just didn't know that when he heard Mianmian's name which Mian was, he almost tore the hem of the clothes covering his knees, otherwise he couldn't restrain his smile.

Sleep.

Mianmian...

Good sleep.

His husband has him in his heart.

Xi Baimian, who was in a hurry, was so edgy when he planned to enter the mansion, he didn't care about the flaws that the discerning people would know at a glance, and he didn't have time to take care of it, he just wanted to ascertain whether the person on the picture scroll was Shen Lirong as quickly as possible.

But now after confirming it, and knowing the good news of the day, he was overjoyed, so naturally he was not in such a hurry, and began to slowly return to his old business - to be a big fool.

As expected, Lou Fang's attention was attracted by him, and he no longer thought about Shen Lirong.

……

The weather was rare and clear, Shen Lirong came out to bask in the sun, Mianmian jumped on top of him, and lazily basked in the sun.

One person, one cat, very comfortable.

Xiao Ning came over with a straight face.

"Master—"

"What's wrong?" Shen Lirong turned her head and saw that Xiao Ning looked like a wandering ghost.

Xiao Ning reluctantly walked over and said, "The young master of the Lou family is looking for you again, see you?"

Although he came to report, he still hoped that his young master would not see Lou Fang, because he always felt that his young master would be abducted.

However, he was disappointed, this time, Shen Lirong met the guest.

After all, he has declined many times to meet with Lou Fang, so he can't always refuse.

Although he really wanted to continue basking in the sun.

Sophisticated.

Shen Lirong reluctantly went to the study and asked Xiao Ning to bring him to the study for a meeting.

Every time Lou Fang came to his house, he had to bring something with him, he really didn't know what to answer, and he was a bit lazy, so he just copied an ancient poem that he had memorized by heart and gave it to Lou Fang.

Xiao Ning brought someone in, but Shen Lirong was only two words away, so she didn't look up, and shouted: "You're coming?"

After finishing the last word, Shen Lirong raised his head in satisfaction, smiled and shook the fine rice paper, and was about to give it to Lou Fang.

However, when he saw who was coming, his smile froze instantly, and the overwhelming memories of the past rushed towards his face like a raging tide.

The young man in the bamboo moonlight stood behind Lou Min, looking calmly at Shen Lirong who was holding rice paper and wearing a red fox fur.
