Text Chapter 11 Qiu Xiang Lou

Jiang Xiaobai returned to the Hou Mansion, it was already dark, and there was no light in the entire Hou Mansion, like a deserted ancient temple, blending into the empty darkness, feeling eerie.

But Fengyan was used to it, and he didn't feel scared at all, but like a mouse, jumping happily in the dark.

When I got to the backyard, I saw a room with a faint light. This is the kitchen, now not more than before, there are so many exquisiteness to eat, now they are all in the kitchen to make a room, for convenience, just put a table on the side, four people casually and eat.

Feng Yan pushed open the door and saw the old housekeeper and Feng Yu sitting at the table facing each other, eating. The meal is also very simple, a bowl of gruel for one person, and a plate of pickles in the middle. Jiang Xiaobai looked a little sad, thinking that this family of three was loyal to the Hou Mansion, but they fell into this step.

The old housekeeper put down the dishes and chopsticks, got up and said, "The young master is back, have you eaten?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "I just dealt with a little thing, and I haven't eaten it yet!"

The old housekeeper has long been accustomed to the little marquis going out late and returning late, or even not returning, and he guesses where he went to steal chickens and dogs, so he didn't cook his meals at all. Fengyu hurriedly stood up and said, "Then young master, wait a while, and I'll do it for you again." ”

Jiang Xiaobai waved his hand and said, "No need to do it, let's go out to eat!"

Feng Yu was stunned: "Young master, let's just eat a meal, why spend that unjust money?" If you don't take care of the young master's face, do you really want to say, don't you need money to go out to eat?

Fengyan said: "It's not wronged at all, Fengyu, let me tell you, the young master made a fortune today, you just lie in the restaurant and eat for three days and three nights, for the young master, it's just a drop in the bucket." Let's go, my saliva is running down at the thought of being ready to eat, and I almost forget what meat tastes like. ”

Feng Yu hurriedly said: "Brother, what are you talking nonsense?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "There is no nonsense in the rumors, let's go!"

Feng Yu and the old housekeeper looked at each other, although they didn't believe that the young master would get rich for no reason, but thinking of the changes in the young master today, and the way Feng Yan swore his promises, he couldn't help but be a little suspicious, but this was a good thing after all, and he didn't ask too much, so he followed Jiang Xiaobai out.

Out of the Hou Mansion, it is like entering another world, the streets are brightly lit, and people come and go. Jiang Xiaobai walked in front, and the old housekeeper was suspicious in his heart, so he deliberately pulled the wind and fell a big bit, and asked about the doubts in his heart. Fengyan didn't dare to hide it, so he told him everything that happened in the afternoon. At the end, Feng Yan said: "Dad, don't blame the young master for messing around, he is also forced to do so, it is that Qin Shangtian who deceives people too much." ”

The old butler said angrily: "Who said that the young master is messing around? This is what he should do." Hou Ye should have the majesty of Hou Ye, and even those clowns who jump off the beam dare to show off their power in front of Hou Ye, and it is not too much to kill them. Yes, yes, what the young master did today finally lived up to the master's high expectations. ”

Feng Yan looked at him in a daze, and he couldn't imagine that the old man who usually shed tears often had more kind of than him in his bones, am I still your biological son?

Qiuxianglou is the largest restaurant in Qingliang City, extremely luxurious, there are some dignitaries and nobles, gorgeously dressed, and the poor stand at the door and are three points shorter.

In normal times, when Xiao Er saw Xiao Hou Ye, he would ignore him, and even want to bomb him out, but today Xiao Hou Ye killed the guards in the city, and everyone knew about it. If you were someone else, you would have been arrested on death row and waiting, but if you look at people, killing someone is like killing a chicken, not only does it have nothing to do, but also has the leisure to go out to the restaurant. Although Xiao Er's status is low, he is not stupid, he knows that Xiao Hou Ye has no money, but people want to visit, he doesn't dare not let people go shopping, and now he is going to his house to go shopping, and he doesn't dare to have an opinion. Hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face, and said, "Little Marquis, I don't know if you are looking for someone, or?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Is there still a private room?"

Xiao Er wanted to say no, but he didn't have the guts, for fear of being discovered by the little marquis, he sent him to see the guards of the Qin family, after all, he was not familiar with the guards of the Qin family, and there was nothing to talk about, so he said: "Yes, there is, but the box is too expensive, and it is not cost-effective at all...... You see...... Do you want to think about it again!" As he spoke, he peeked at the little marquis, for fear that the little marquis would be unhappy, no matter whether he was familiar with the Qin family's guards or not, he had to send him over.

Jiang Xiaobai's eyes widened, stared at him and said, "Do you think Ben Hou can't afford to pay?"

Xiao Er felt that although he didn't draw his sword, his eyes were sharper than the sword, and he was horrified when he saw him, and hurriedly said: "No, no, if the little marquis can't afford to pay, our restaurant won't be opened, who can afford to eat?

The old housekeeper's family of three sighed with emotion in their hearts, how many years have passed, and they finally feel that they are following behind a Hou Ye, not following a monkey, and everyone on the street can shout a few times.

Entering the box, Xiao Er brought the menu, Jiang Xiaobai did not order, and the old housekeeper and Fengyu only symbolically ordered one or two dishes, but Fengyu was not polite, feeling that there were no dishes on the menu that he didn't want to eat, and ordered more than 30 dishes in one go. Seeing that Xiao Er gasped, this confirmed the idea that they wanted to eat the overlord meal, because he was too familiar with this routine, originally he wanted to notify the palm to refuse, and he was afraid that the little marquis would retaliate in the future, anyway, he was acting according to the procedure, no matter how important it was, no matter how important it was, it was not as important as his life.

After a while, more than 30 dishes were served, and a table was full. This family of three has had a shabby life over the years, food and clothing can not be solved, where have I seen so many delicacies, but the old housekeeper and Fengyu are also reserved, chewing slowly, and Fengyan can't care about the demeanor at this time, gobbling up, holding the altar of cattle drink, because the table is too big, and there is no extended chopsticks supply, can only shoot a shot to change a place, this side is almost eaten, and then change another place to continue, running all over the table.

Jiang Xiaobai knew that he had suffered a lot over the years, so he didn't say anything.

When he was full of wine and food, the old housekeeper couldn't help but say tentatively: "Young master, I don't know what you plan to do with this thousand taels of gold?" Speaking in his heart, he was really afraid that the young master would return to the same state after he had money, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling every day, and not thinking of making progress, after all, the country is easy to change, and his nature is difficult to change.

Jiang Xiaobai didn't think about it, so he took out a thousand taels of silver tickets from his arms, handed them to him, and said, "I'll leave it to you to take care of in the future!"

The old housekeeper panicked: "Young master, I didn't mean that!"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Uncle Feng, I don't mean anything else, you don't want to see outside, you have done your best to the Hou Mansion all these years, don't I still believe you?" You know, I don't know how to manage money, and it's useless to put this money on me. You take this money, tomorrow not only will you find someone to pull out the grass, but also find someone to renovate the inside and outside of the Hou Mansion, and you will also recruit some people to come back, so as not to fall into the prestige of the Hou Mansion. And the debts I owe before, you also helped me pay them back. Of course, Qin Shangtian's money should not be repaid, he is the big head, and in addition to him, he can't owe much money, and it is estimated that it is only a few dozen taels of gold. The rest of the money should be kept to buy some industries, after all, it can't last long. ”

The old butler now firmly believes that the young master is really a prodigal son. It is said that the prodigal son will not change the gold when he turns back, and sure enough, he will exchange so much gold in one return. I was so moved in my heart that I couldn't help but cry again, and said: "Young master, rest assured, as long as the young master is lost, I promise to keep the Hou Mansion in good order, so that the world can look up to its glory." ”

He is indeed a capable person, otherwise he would not have sat in the position of the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, but it has been difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice over the years, and she has nowhere to display her ambitions.

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and said, "I believe in you." He looked at the rumors again, and said: "From tomorrow onwards, without my consent, the two of you are not allowed to leave the Hou Mansion for half a step, and obediently let me stay in the Hou Mansion to cultivate honestly, when will I open the void and show the seal, and when can I go out!"

Feng Yan said: "That must not be boring to death." ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Cultivation is a boring thing, if you regret it, you can choose to quit." ”

Feng Yan said: "No regrets, no regrets, no matter how boring it is, it's better than being a short-lived ghost!" suddenly remembered that his father was a short-lived ghost sitting on the side, and hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Young master, what about you?

Jiang Xiaobai said: "I won't go out either!"

Feng Yan said: "Young Master, you won't be afraid of Qin Shangtian, right?"

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Don't worry, he will come to us." ”

After speaking, he called Xiao Er to settle the bill, to be honest, Xiao Er had already prepared them to eat the overlord meal, and even after they ran away, he had already thought about the rhetoric of dealing with the shopkeeper, but he didn't expect that everything was ready, they actually wanted to settle the bill, it was too unreasonable. Hurriedly went downstairs to the counter to calculate the account, a total of eighteen silver coins, Jiang Xiaobai threw a gold coin to him, he went downstairs to find eighty-two silver coins back, Jiang Xiaobai threw a silver coin to him, which was considered a tip.

This is his salary for two or three months, Xiao Er smiled with joy, and hurriedly patted the horse to thank him, secretly glad in his heart, boasting that he was wise and martial, but fortunately there was no dog looking down on people.

Out of the box, just about to leave, walked to the staircase, but a group of people came up downstairs, the first person was mediocre in appearance, but the clothes were luxurious, this person was none other than Zuo Lan, the son of the lord of Qingliang City, that is, the person who spent a gold coin to buy Fengyu Female Red during the day.

It's autumn now, and the sky is slightly cool, but Zuo Lan is holding a white fan in his hand and fanning it gently, which makes people feel coquettish. Seeing Jiang Xiaobai, he was slightly stunned, he had heard about Jiang Xiaobai killing the Qin family's guards during the day, but he had not heard of the extortion of a thousand taels of gold, after all, this matter was a great shame for the Qin family, and it was too late to cover it, how could he shake it out and make fun of others! So Zuo Lan felt strange, this little marquis was heavily indebted and extremely poor, how could he have money to come to such a high-end restaurant?
