Wei Xiaobao hurriedly bought some gifts on the street, and rushed to the Zhuang Mansion with the Supreme Treasure, when it was dark, he arrived at the place, and saw that the lights inside were bright, and it was quiet, Wei Xiaobao knew that nothing had happened, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and hurriedly walked to the door, and gently buckled the copper ring in front of the door a few times.

After a while, the door 'creaked' and opened a gap, Steward Li poked his head out of it, Wei Xiaobao saw that he knew, stepped forward and hugged his fist, and said with a smile, "Steward Li, I'm really sorry to bother late at night, I don't know how Old Man Zhuang is doing recently?" Although I was thinking about Shuang'er and Mrs. Zhuang, I couldn't say that.

Steward Li took the lantern and made a move, and when he saw that it was Wei Xiaobao, he hurriedly smiled and said, "It turned out to be Young Master Bao, I haven't seen you for many days, but the old man has been talking about you, come in quickly." ”

Wei Xiaobao said, "Steward Li, don't you need to report inside?" Isn't that good? ”

Steward Li smiled and said, "The old man ordered, as long as Young Master Bao comes, there is no need to report it in the future, just go to the study to find him." ”

Wei Xiaobao was very happy, and said that the old man was not bad, and his sycophants didn't seem to be in vain, which saved a lot of trouble.

followed Steward Li into the Zhuang Mansion, at this time the Zhuang family had already eaten dinner, the old man was reading in the study, Steward Li directly took Wei Xiaobao to the study, "Master Bao, Young Master Bao has come to see you." ”

The door of the house 'creaked', opened from the inside, not much effort, the old man Zhuang came out from the inside with a smile on his face, the old man took Wei Xiaobao's hand, it was called a kind, happy laugh, "Virtuous nephew, you haven't come to see the old man for a few days, and you think you forgot my old bones, hurry up and please, Steward Li brings the best Longjing and lets Young Master Bao taste it." Steward Li hurriedly agreed, turned around and walked out.

After entering the house, Wei Xiaobao put the gift box on the table, opened the box, and said with a smile, "Recently, I have been riddled with chores, and I can't take my time out for a while, I hope the old man will forgive me, this is not just free today, so I quickly ran over to visit your old man, the old man's body is still so tough, the dragon spirit and the tiger are fierce, and the majesty is still unabated, looking stronger than the last time, it seems that my thousand-year-old ginseng is taken for nothing today, the old man's body is so good, I'm afraid I can't use it." ”

Wei Xiaobao's words reached the heart of the old man Zhuang, the more the old man listened, the more proud he became, he smiled happily, his gray eyebrows were stretched, and he smiled and said, "This mouth of the virtuous nephew is really as flattering as honey, if you are by your side to accompany the old decay, it is estimated that my bones are tougher than any panacea, you are much stronger than my unsuccessful children." ”

Wei Xiaobao smiled and said, "The old man is polite, what Xiaobao said is from the heart, and how can Xiaobao be compared, how dare he compare with Ling Gongzi, and besides, Ling Gongzi alone relies on "Ming Shu Compendium", Xiaobao is absolutely out of reach." Now, in the entire Yangzhou City, which one doesn't know, which one doesn't know? Ling Gongzi's talent is famous, the name shocks Yangzhou, and the sound shocks Huaxia, Xiaobao can't catch up even if he rides ten fast horses. ”

Soon Steward Li brought tea and made it for the two of them. The two chatted indiscriminately for half an hour, the old man was like seeing a bosom friend, and the more he chatted with Wei Xiaobao, the more speculative he became, as if he was going to pour out the words that he hadn't seen for a few days, which made Wei Xiaobao embarrassed, so he had to deal with it perfunctorily, but said in his heart, "I'm here to find Shuang'er, and I'm not interested in you old man." ”

Seeing that it was not early, and the old man was endless, Wei Xiaobao got up and said, "The old man is so tough, Xiaobao is very pleased, it's not early, let's talk tomorrow, you take care of your body, I'm still waiting to congratulate you on your 100th birthday, besides, I'm in a hurry on the way, Xiaobao hasn't eaten yet." ”

The old man laughed, "Look at me, I am happy to see you, I patronize and chat, yes, you go down and rest quickly, and talk again tomorrow, Steward Li asked Shuang'er to serve Young Master Bao to rest, arrange a few exquisite meals, and then give my jar of Jimo old wine to Young Master Bao and let him try it." ”

Wei Xiaobao said in his heart that let Shuang'er serve me, which was exactly what I wanted, and immediately got up and left.

It was still the courtyard where Wei Xiaobao lived before, and on the way, Steward Li said, "Young Master Bao, although you haven't come for many days, but this yard, Shuang'er girl has been helping you clean it." Saying that, he smiled at Wei Xiaobao's 'hehe'. Wei Xiaobao knew in his heart that he had seen that he was interested in Shuang'er girl, and made fun of himself.

Wei Xiaobao smiled and took out two thousand taels of silver tickets from his arms, secretly handed them to Steward Li, and whispered in Steward Li's ear, "It's not up to Steward Li to take care of it up and down, and in the future, Shuang'er will trouble Steward Li to take care of it." ”

When Steward Li saw so many silver tickets, his mouth was full of saliva, and he hurriedly nodded and said with a smile, "That's, Young Master Bao, although rest assured, everything is wrapped up in me Li, and I will definitely not let Shuang'er girl suffer the slightest grievance." ”

Steward Li's heart was full of joy, and he thought to himself, "Two thousand taels of silver is enough for how many years I can earn, if this little thing is done well, maybe Young Master Bao will be happy, and the white silver is not... Like the water of the Yellow River rolling in, Young Master Bao has always been bold, this God of Wealth tree, he has to hold it tightly. ”

Wei Xiaobao also ignored Steward Li's dirty thoughts, and soon came to the courtyard and sent Wei Xiaobao into the wing, Steward Li turned around and went out, Wei Xiaobao looked at the house carefully, the furnishings in the house have not changed at all, the tables and chairs are wiped clean, spotless, and the beds are neatly tied, the only difference is that the bedside is full of thousands of paper cranes.

Wei Xiaobao remembered that he taught Shuang'er how to fold thousands of paper cranes when he came last time, but he didn't expect Shuang'er to be so careful, and he still remembered himself so much, a warmth instantly surged into his heart, and after a while, a small and soft footsteps floated over.

When the footsteps approached, Shuang'er's voice rang out, "Is Wei Gongzi inside?" I'm Twins. ”

Suddenly hearing the voice of thinking day and night, Wei Xiaobao stayed for a long time before replying in a panic, "It's Shuang'er, come in." ”

Hearing the 'squeak' of the door, Shuang'er walked into the house lightly, Wei Xiaobao didn't dare to turn around for a long time, "I really don't know why?" I never knew how to be afraid of other women, I always could afford to put it down, I could joke and tease, but I only met Shuang'er, what happened to me..."

Wei Xiaobao's heart turned over and over, even he couldn't figure it out, as if he was squeezing it in his heart, and he didn't know what to do when he saw Shuang'er. Shuang'er called a few times in a row, "Wei Gongzi, Wei Gongzi ......" before Wei Xiaobao slowly turned around.

Looking up at Shuang'er standing in front of him, he didn't change at all, he was still a simple dress, no powdered makeup, smart and charming eyes, bright and shiny like a jewel, round face, crystal clear, like peeling off the green onion, this is the Shuang'er he thought about for a long time, that cute, handsome, well-behaved and sensible Shuang'er, now, he is still so cute, beautiful, pure, flawless, but his face is obviously haggard a lot, and he seems to have lost some weight, Wei Xiaobao was heartbroken, and asked with concern, "Shuang'er, How are you doing? Aren't you happy here? Has anyone bullied you? ”
