embarrassment for man and wife

Lianying's matter was always suppressed by the three uncles and uncles, but Zhuohua knew that the suppression was only temporary, like Uncle Yao, Li Dai and the others. Kouzi are almost all people who will not give up until they achieve their goals, but this time, Zhuohua doesn't know when they will start to do things after they rest, as for the eldest brother Lianying.In the past few days, although he didn't make trouble anymore, he always locked himself in the room alone, and when he came out to eat with everyone occasionally, the atmosphere was not right.

Zhuo Hua saw it, and just pretended not to know. After the meal, he took his two younger sisters to pack up the dishes and sent them to the kitchen. Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around and walked to the door, he saw Lian Ying waiting outside the door. He looked at himself with a hesitant expression.Zhuo Hua guessed that he probably had something to ask himself, but...

"Brother, my second brother and I can clean up the kitchen here, I don't need your help, there's not much to do here." Zhuo Hua only thought that he was coming to the kitchen to help.

Lian Ying didn't gnaw, he stared at Zhuohua for a while, and then asked: "Zhuohua, can I go over there and ask you a question?".

"Huh? What's the problem?".

Lian Ying only pointed to him at the corner of the wall, then turned around first.

Zhuohua watched, frowning slightly, he turned to Xiaoyue and told Xiaoyue to put water in the basin first, and the second elder brother would come to clean up later.

Xiaoyue was a little afraid of Lianying, so she agreed and turned around and ran away.

Zhuo Hua sighed lightly, then approached Lian Ying, and asked, "Brother, what do you want to ask? I will answer if I know."

"How do you know, teacher... the relationship with Yang Jingye?".

Zhuo Hua listened, although he was a little surprised that Lian Ying would ask such a straightforward question, but there was no big reaction on his face: "I only occasionally heard about this matter from the village chief's grandpa, because he is the elder brother's son. Teacher, so just remember it."

In the village, when foreigners come here and want to live here, the village head cannot avoid it, so it is not surprising that the village head knows the relationship between Yang Puye and Yang Jingye. Lian Ying listened to this explanation and did not doubt it. , he stared at Zhuohua, was silent for a while, and then asked: "Then how did you find out about Dean Huanzhou?".

"This? Last year, didn't I go to the college to see my brother for a while? I was fine with the college for a few days. I wandered around and heard the students in the college talk about it. They thought I was also in the college. The freshmen who are about to enroll at the academy told me a lot of things."

Zhuohua pushed all these matters cleanly.

Lian Ying frowned, he didn't know whether to believe it or not, but Zhuo Hua didn't care, he just changed the subject and said, "By the way, big brother, there is going to be a fair in town tomorrow, big brother, are you going to visit?" ?”.

Lian Ying was startled, nodded slightly, and then turned back.Now Zhuohua was really stunned.

He was just... just asking casually, he didn't really want Lian Ying to go with him.

But the next morning, Lian Ying really went to the market with them.

At the market, the sky was still gray, and people from various villages had already gathered here, some came to sell things, and some came to shop for things. At this time, the two noodle restaurants on the side of the street were doing business. Hottest.

Li Mu was carrying a cloth bag, turned around and looked at the people behind him and said, "I'll go ahead to buy some things, you can go around on your own if you want to go, we'll meet here at noon and go back together" .

Zhuo Hua and Zi Qing both said hello, Li Mu looked at Lian Ying, saw that he just nodded without saying anything, Li Mu turned and left.

Ziqing has a big prejudice against Lian Ying now, Li Mu just left, and he also said: "I'll go to the other side to see, you and elder brother walk around here by yourself, don't go too far, if you don't find anyone later, be careful and I'll clean you up!" .

Zhuo Hua knew that he meant Lian Ying, but he didn't point it out, he just smiled and said: "I know, I am so old, I can't find it anywhere, unless your eyesight is stupid!".

Ziqing snorted twice, turned around and left.

The rest of them stood here, looking around.

Suddenly, Lian Ying asked him: "Where are you going?".

Zhuohua smiled and said: "I promised Xiaoyue and Xiaoliu before that I would find some books for them and teach them how to read when I go back. I plan to go to the bookstore in front to see if there are thousands of characters and three characters. Go back and teach them."

Lian Ying nodded, didn't say much, and followed Zhuo Hua towards the bookshop full of people in front.

Jiuxi Village is located in the southwest of Taocheng, and the surrounding villages are formed around Taocheng. Therefore, on the market day, there are not only people from Jiuxi Village, but also villagers from several other villages. Get together in one place, take out the things you don’t need at home, and sell them to those who need them. The cost of living in a different area, many things seem to be worthless, but in fact, they may also be necessary for other people’s life .

Zhuo Hua and Lian Ying walked side by side, the two of them walked through the crowded path, and finally arrived at the door of the bookstore. Compared with the outside, there were much fewer people in this bookstore. Zhuohua opened his mouth and asked if there were such simple things as the Three-Character Classic and the Thousand-Character Classic. When the boss turned around to get it, Zhuohua turned to look at Lianying: "Brother, do you want to take a look here?".

"No need." Lian Ying responded lightly: "There is nothing valuable in such a small bookstore."

Zhuohua listened, but shrugged his shoulders slightly and didn't speak. He knew that since his elder brother started studying with Yang Puye, many literati's poetry anthologies were gradually out of his sight, so Zhuohua didn't bother to talk to him, but ...

"Four gentlemen?" Lian Ying suddenly murmured, as if he saw something.

Zhuo Hua turned his head and saw Lian Ying walking towards the wall beside him. There was a landscape painting hanging on the wall. Zhuo Hua couldn't see anything special about this painting, he just thought it was very beautiful, especially the one above It seems that the waterfalls can be confused with the real ones.

"It's pretty good-looking," Zhuo Hua muttered, and nodded leisurely.

Lian Ying didn't say a word, he just stared at the painting, and when he raised his hand, his fingertips lightly touched his head, and Zhuo Hua looked at the words "Four Gentlemen" on the seal, and asked in confusion: "Brother, these four gentlemen are four men together. Do you mean to paint?" Zhuo Hua thought for a while, and felt that...the picture of four men drawing a picture together was...a bit embarrassing.

Lian Ying couldn't help but laugh: "Who told you that the four gentlemen are four men?".

"Is that a person?".

"Of course" Lian Ying said: "These four gentlemen are painters who have gradually become famous in Huanzhou over the past year. His paintings are only available on Huanzhou, but I never thought Tao Cheng could have them here too.”

"Is he so powerful?" Zhuohua doesn't know much about these things, even though... someone taught him before, but Zhuohua really doesn't have this talent. Apart from being able to read characters, Zhuohua is really a genius in literature. ... not so good.

When the boss came out, he was holding two books in his hand. Judging from the cover, they seemed to be old. The boss himself knew that the books had been placed for too long. He smiled and said: "Little brother, these two books, because they are from my store The last two simple books have been put away for a long time, if you don’t mind my little brother, I’ll buy you both for the price of one.”

Zhuohua immediately laughed when he heard that.

but……

"Boss, how did you buy this painting?" Lian Ying asked him suddenly.

The boss was stunned: "Hey, this young man has a good eye. This painting was recently found in our shop. No, it was just hung up today. You are the first person to ask for the price."

Lian Ying smiled and asked again: "What is the price of this painting?".

The boss stretched out his hand and said, "50 taels!".

Lianying frowned.

Zhuo Hua stared slightly: "50 taels, so expensive, boss, 50 taels is more than enough for me to buy your shop!".

"It's really 50 taels, which is no longer a price for the two of you."

Zhuohua was displeased: "Boss, don't think that our brothers are honest and foolish. If you ask me, this painting is not worth 50 taels at all!".

This time it was the boss' turn to stare.

Zhuohua approached the painting and pointed out: "This painting, apart from the waterfall, is not interesting. The paper is just average, and it will break after a few twists and turns. And this, Here." Zhuohua pointed to a corner of the painting: "The red flowers here are not like flowers or trees, and it doesn't look very good here. If this painting is replaced with white pear flowers, the whole scenery will be improved. On the contrary, if the color of this kind of beauty is placed in such a corner, it will also reduce the beauty of the painting and make it look tacky. If you look at this place again, there are obviously traces of being wet by raindrops, and he insisted on adding it. A few brushstrokes of green bamboos, the green bamboos are hard and stylish, appearing in the same frame as this waterfall, it is simply placed randomly, such things can only be viewed from a distance at most, if you look closely, there will be many failures!" .

The smile on the boss's face couldn't hold back anymore, he seemed to think... what this little doll said seemed to make sense?

……

"Young master is so powerful, with three eyes and two words, he said that this painting is worthless."

There was a clear male voice by the door, and it suddenly sounded with a faint smile. Zhuohua turned his head and saw the man who came in. Although he was wearing ordinary plain clothes, the material of the clothes...was high-quality. Zhuo Hua frowned, and then looked at the man's appearance, sword eyebrows and star eyes, Zhong Lingyuxiu...

This man is not Tao Cheng.

Confident in his heart, Zhuo Hua moved his eyes away and didn't look at the other party again, but Zhuo Hua found that his elder brother Lian Ying was still staring at the other party, as if... a little lost.

Zhuo Hua frowned, he tugged at Lian Ying's sleeve, Lian Ying came back to his senses, and hurriedly bowed to the other party: "Just now I just said casually, but I made you laugh."

The man smiled faintly, shook the folding fan lightly in his hand, said it was all right, Zhuohua secretly brushed it away, and he found that the jade inlaid on the man's fan bone was the Hetian Nuanyu that was only found in the capital. This man...

Zhuohua raised his head and looked at the other person's face again, but he was seriously thinking about whether he had seen him when he was in the capital in his previous life.

The man lowered his eyes to look at Zhuohua, with a gentle expression on his face, with a smile hanging from the corner of his mouth: "Young master, do you know who these four gentlemen are?".

Zhuohua didn't return, he was still searching for the memories of his previous life in his mind.

Seeing that he didn't reply, Lian Ying replied: "My brother doesn't know. My brother has been stubborn since he was a child. He doesn't like reading and calligraphy. He just grinned carelessly with his eloquent mouth. Please don't worry about it, my lord." That's it."

"Ah, I remembered!" Zhuo Hua suddenly came back to his senses, he opened his eyes and patted his thigh: "Thank you!".

"Huh?" The man narrowed his eyes.

The unspoken words at the end were stuck in the sore throat by Zhuohua. He looked at Lian Ying and the man looking at him, and the two words that he almost said in his throat suddenly became: "Dog Egg!".

man:"……".

puff……

The boss almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

Lian Ying immediately scolded Zhuo Hua: "Zhuo Hua, don't talk nonsense, you still don't want to apologize to the young master!".

Zhuohua immediately stood up, with an embarrassed expression on his face: "I'm sorry, young master, I just looked like this young master. He looks so similar to one of my playmates in the village. I almost mistook you for him. I wasn't there just now. Insulting the son, it's just my playmate's childhood nickname, so he called him Goudan."

The man's face was slightly calm, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth: "It's nothing, I understand that in ordinary people's homes, there is a kind of saying that a cheap name is easy to raise, and this is just to let the children grow up healthily."

Zhuo Hua nodded again and again, but he also let out a big breath in his heart.

He almost said the man's name just now.

Zhuo Hua remembered who this man was.

But when he thought about it, he panicked even more. He was afraid that this person... would lure Wu Linqing over.

"Brother, it looks like the painting is missing 50 taels and the boss is not willing to sell it, let's forget it, let's go look elsewhere." Pulling Lianying, Zhuohua wanted to run away.

The man's eyelids were drooping, he looked at the little Zhuohua, and seemed to dodge a little, then turned his head and said to the boss: "Shopkeeper, please wrap up this painting."

The shopkeeper was startled, Lian Ying refused to move, and Zhuo Hua panicked even more.

The man just said: "If you don't dislike it, how about I pass this painting on to you? Although..." The man's voice paused slightly, he glanced at Zhuo Hua, and chuckled: "This painting is not worth much."

The boss felt his palm tremble when he heard it.

Lian Ying was stunned: "This... how can I suffer if I don't get paid for nothing?".

"It doesn't matter, although this painting is worthless, it can be regarded as being less polite and more affectionate."

Zhuohua: "...".

Go to your gift light affection heavy!

But the man said so, and Lian Ying couldn't resign, he accepted it frankly: "If so, thank you very much, my lord."

The boss packed the things and handed them to Lian Ying with both hands.

Zhuohua watched from the side, but felt that this thing looked like a hot potato no matter how it looked.

"Student Li Lianying, you have received this gift from the young master, and you haven't asked the young master's name yet?"

"Me? My surname is Xie." The man turned his eyes to Zhuo Hua.

Zhuo Hua raised his eyes and saw him staring at him, as if he was asking his name, Zhuo Hua curled his lips, pretending he didn't know, but after Lian Ying came to his senses, he sold Zhuo Hua: "This is my younger brother, Zhuo Hua Hua, just turned fifteen, it is the time when young and mischievous."

"Zhuohua?" whispering these two words, the man stared at Zhuohua for a while, then suddenly said: "Run away, Zhuozhuohua..." It's very beautiful.

The man pursed his lips and smiled, as if he had some deep meaning.

Zhuo Hua frowned, a little bit wanting to stare at others.

Lian Ying said: "Our brothers' names were all taken by our grandfather. When he was young, he also took the Juren examination."

"So that's how it is." The man looked at Zhuo Hua again: "I originally thought that your nickname would be not much different from that bitch just now...".

Zhuo Hua said with a half-hearted smile: "I am easy to raise, so the name is relatively simple."

"Pfft..." The man couldn't help but laugh.

Zhuohua wanted to slap himself.

What does it mean to take care of yourself better! ! !

Lian Ying also felt that Zhuohua's words were not right, but before he could speak, someone suddenly ran in outside the bookstore and whispered something in the man's ear. He didn't know what he was talking about. The two of them said: "I have something to do today, so I will take my leave first. If there is a chance, I will see you again in the future." After saying that, the man turned and left.

Lian Ying watched and wanted to ask a few more questions, but when the man walked outside the door, he seemed to meet someone suddenly.

When Zhuo Hua stretched out his head to look, he instantly froze, and his originally rosy face became... instantly pale.

Outside the door, the person who met the man was...Wu Linqing.

This... is really what you are afraid of.
