On this day, Xu Yu ran to Mu Lanxiang's room angrily, sat opposite him without saying a word.￥f

Lan Xiang thought he was scolded and asked softly: "Why are you angry? What did the old man say to you?"

"No." Xu Yu said depressedly: "The third master rewarded me with a lot of things. It was my uncle who called me over today. He shouldn't have sold my pen and ink for money. Could it be that my writing is so stinky? I don't even care about it if it's 50 million taels of silver."

Lan Xiang couldn't understand it and asked with a smile: "I wonder what I said, why did my uncle sell your pen and ink for money?"

It turned out that Xu Wen called his nephew over and whispered: "I called you to come here and don't do anything else. I vented my anger for your brother, but I was dismissed from my official position. Now I have finally asked the commander of the Beijing Guard to clear the matter. The commander said to me: 'Because I am not a proper person, those scholars look down on me. I thought about it for half a year and finally came up with a way, but it's a pity that I could not do it.'

I naturally have to follow his preferences, right? I asked casually what method. The commander said, "I want to write a collection of poems, but I was a martial artist, but I didn't have any ink in my heart. There were some vulgar martial artists or half-legged officials below. It was difficult to invite people outside, and it would be even more inappropriate if the news leaked."

At that time, I saw that it was to ask me to write for me, but I was not easy to refuse. Unexpectedly, when the commander saw me, he came over and said to me, 'Brother Xu, you are unwilling to help me do these things in middle age. I heard that Ling's nephew's writing is good, and everyone highly recommends him. Could you please help Ling's nephew with his brother? I know that he is the second son of the Duke's Mansion, but Isn't Enke not an award? I guess the third master will not be favored for his son, so why don't I help him with his fame and fortune? Isn't it great?'"

When Mu Lanxiang heard this, she opened her eyes wide, with an incredible look on her face and said, "Did the uncle agree so?"

Xu Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle said I knew I didn't want to be so he quit. Unexpectedly, the commander of Lao Shizi said again: "Don't have fame, brother, then give me a pen of 5,000 taels. This collection of poems doesn't have to be good. If it's too good, it's not like brothers, and there are not many. There are dozens of poems, just publish a book."

"Oh." Lan Xiang understood and couldn't help but say angrily: "It must be because my uncle wants to restore his post, so he doesn't have to be fame."

Xu Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle said that I spent money every day and could not make a single money. I took it back with a total of 5,000 taels, which made my grandmother and my mother happy, so I agreed for me. What can I say?"

Mu Lanxiang laughed and said, "If you want to say what good words do you have to sell for this money? It's five thousand taels!"

"Five thousand taels of silver, I look like a pile of cow dung." Xu Yu lost his temper and said hatefully: "You are here too. OK, okay! I will bring the silver here to make your bed tomorrow, and you all sleep in the pile of gold and silver."

Lan Xiang was ridiculed by him and suddenly turned red and said angrily: "You are angry outside. Why are you vomiting with me?" Then she said intimately that he had never been angry with me since he was a child. Since Sister Mingzhi came, why should I accommodate him in this way?

As she thought about it, Lanxiang's eyes couldn't help but turn red. She turned around and picked up the handkerchief to wipe her tears. Xu Yu saw her crying at first sight, and knew that she was too willful, so he hurriedly apologized and apologized.

After a long time of fuss, Lan Xiang was gentle. She quickly came back to her thoughts and felt that she had blamed him wrongly. When she saw Yu'er next to her left and said good sister and good sister on the right, she couldn't help but laugh and said angrily: "What sister? If you are angry with others, come and lose your temper. Today I won't be as good as you. Humph!"

"Okay, okay!" Xu Yu agreed without any wits and said, "What did you think they used to buy my poems with money?"

Lan Xiang laughed and said, "Then you don't have to be angry. People are willing to spend money, do you think you are very capable? The drunkard's intention is not to drink, so he is naturally to flatter his uncle. He simply doesn't take the money and ask his uncle to decide. But since he agreed, he still has to write the poem, and for your elders, you follow his wishes. If you don't like to do this poem, I will do it for you tomorrow."

"Look." Xu Yu's anger was almost gone, and he took out a roll of paper from his sleeve, "Then what commander has a question."

Lan Xiang took it and saw that it was written with "Entering the Palace to Face the Saint", "Secret of the same seat as a certain cabinet minister", and "The Dictionary of the Words of Give Birth" and so on. She laughed and said, "I laughed so hard that I didn't do these things, so I'd better ask Biyu and others to make some excuses. You can do it as you like, and I'll do the topics such as chanting things in the four seasons, such as the scenery, and I'll do it for you, and there are Sister Ming and others."

"I dare not trouble you." Xu Yu also smiled and said, "My daughter's pen and ink write poems for these things? I'm not happy, so I'll just dirty my pen and I'll do it all by myself. By the way, the weather is good today, so how about we'll have a glass of wine on this bed?"

Lan Xiang spat and said with a blushing face: "You should be careful and talk nonsense, be careful, be careful I'll annoy you again."

Xu Yu shouted, "Why are the girl separated from me? When did we eat and sleep together?"

"Bao, bah!" Lan Xiang shyly pushed him with her hands, "I was ignorant when I was a child. Now you want to take advantage of me, so you must not."

However, Xu Yu insisted on drinking, but Lan Xiang was too stubborn to him, so she had to eat a small cup with her.

At the same time, Xu Ying's maid Huazhu squatted under the eaves of the octagonal glass pavilion in the yard, and crept a copper stove fire. She used a silver hanger to cook lotus seed soup. She dragged a big red silk and half on the ground, saying, "Young master seems to be drunk today, keep looking at us, and she laughed alone for no reason, strange!"

Another big maid Baozhu teased, "I heard from my aunt yesterday that I will accept you in autumn."

"Bah!" Huazhu said unwillingly: "If you want to accept it, you will accept it first. Who is smart, beautiful, and will flatter you like you? I'm afraid you won't be able to wait for autumn."

"Go to yours." Baozhu pushed his hand and sat on the ground with his back and his butt, with his feet facing the sky, almost knocking over the lotus seed soup.

Huazhu got up and reached out to hold Baozhu's shoulder, trying to fall down her, but the two girls hugged each other and laughed.

At this time, the maid Aizhu came in from the room and said, "Don't make trouble. It's too late, and Hu Sheng will be told to come in."

Baozhu asked, "What are you asking Hu Sheng to do?"

"What do I know?" Aizhu curled her lips. She was wearing wooden clogs and walked quickly, making a creaking sound, and explained to the woman in charge at the door.

The old lady then came out and went to the yard of Xu Ying's accompanying staff in the outer house. She found Hu Sheng and shouted from afar: "Young Master is calling you."

Hu Sheng was enjoying the cool air in the yard, chatting with Shao Er and others. There were a few young people standing next to them, serving them tea and water.

Under Shao Er's jealous gaze, Hu Sheng hurriedly put on his long gown, tied his belt, found a small corner lamp to light it, followed the woman to register at the Chuhuamen, and entered the main garden to Xu Xian's yard.

He walked to the octagonal glass pavilion before stopping, and said hello to the four maids, Aizhu and other sisters. They asked, "What's wrong with the young master?"

Aizhu lifted up the crimson gauze lantern in her hand, illuminated Hu Sheng's face, and asked with a smile: "Your face is red, are you drinking again? Be careful to get into a nail."

Hu Sheng smiled and said, "I didn't drink. Your lantern is red. Why do the sisters always think we are stealing wine outside?"

"Who cares about you?" Aizhu turned around and walked in, "Hu Sheng is here."

Hu Sheng walked in, Xu Qian sat cross-legged on the Zuiweng's bed and said, "Sir Xia is back? I'm going to go over and have something to say."

Hu Sheng hurriedly said, "It's late. I'm watching the main garden locking. All the doors will be locked later. There's nothing important to say. Let's talk about it tomorrow morning. Besides, I'll open two or three doors in the past. It's almost night if I go to invite you. Master Xia lives far away now, so I must have rest."

Xu Ying thought about it and found that there was nothing important. It was just that Master Xia was begged by him to third grandfather and became a master in the Western Palace. He wanted to go over and chat with him, so he said, "That's it. By the way, I first met my uncle's opera troupe that day, so why haven't I seen him before?"

"Young Master is talking about Qin Yan, right?" Hu Sheng smiled and explained: "The team has been in charge for many years and will come to pay tribute every month. I don't remember the title of the book. The young master is just young. It's that Qin Yan. I remember that her master has also brought her here, so I'm not qualified to come in."

Xu Qian asked, "Whose apprentice is Qin Yan?"

"Changqing's apprentice." Hu Sheng replied.

"Changqing?" Xu Ying was a little surprised, "Isn't your original master just Changqing?"

"Yes!" Hu Sheng said: "Changqing has a bad temper and I can't stand it and run back. He later chose Xiufang. Xiufang got his master and bought Qin Yan, but it only took more than half a year. In short, I am still Qin Yan's senior brother, haha!"

"Yeah." Xu Ying oh oh um um um for a while, and suddenly said, "You have advised me to move to Yisou Garden several times, but I don't care. Look at Qin Yan's behavior?"

Hu Sheng was stunned and didn't say anything. Xu Xian asked again, and Hu Sheng frowned and said, "It's good, but he is loved by the master of the East Mansion and never comes out for socializing."

Xu Ying said: "Uncle likes Xiufang, but he doesn't love her."

Hu Sheng said: "I heard that she is almost the same as Xiufang's favor, and I also heard that the master has spent thousands of silver on her."

Xu Qi lowered his head and said without saying a word. After a while, "Everyone praised Qin Yan for singing well that day. When I heard this, I saw that she was born well and wanted to be close to her. I didn't expect that she was my uncle's personal favor, just."

"It seems that's not the case." Hu Sheng felt that he was wrong and chuckled, "The little one didn't know the details. But the little one knew that the master had never been close to the people in the opera troupe for many years because of that time, otherwise why would he allow Xiufang to go out to sing?"
