Lin Jiabiyu

Since the 18th year of Tianchen's natural disaster, the Holy One has repeatedly issued decrees, instructing officials everywhere to treat the people kindly, and also ordered a ban on alcohol.Afterwards, he sent inspectors to inspect the various places. In the past few years, the various places have indeed improved a lot.The Holy Majesty was happy, and issued an amnesty order every year, and lifted the alcohol ban last year.In the past year, restaurants in the capital have sprung up, and restaurants big and small are competing for wine, which is very lively.

The first-class restaurants, such as Yueran Restaurant, needless to say the wine, the place is big, the scenery is good, and the dishes are also extraordinary.But in such a restaurant, it is embarrassing to enter the door without three or five taels of silver.This Yingxianlou happened to be the dowry of Lin Wan's second aunt, Chen, the second wife of Bo Chengyi's house. It is not the best restaurant in the capital, but its location is good, the rooms are elegant, and the price is reasonable, so it has become a literati The poet's favorite.When the talented scholars gathered there, they often went to sit with the girls from various families.

The Lin family's carriage arrived at the gate of the building, and the younger brother had already greeted him warmly and greeted him.Qiu Zi and Cui Yu drew up the curtains of the car, and Lin Wan and the three of them got out of the car one after another wearing a veiled hat and followed Mrs. Yang second, and the younger brother led them upstairs.The few people settled in the private room properly, and the doctor of tea, rice and wine brewing brought up the wine menu respectfully, and the maid waiting outside the door took it and passed it on to the masters.

"Unexpectedly, there is a courtyard in this place." Qiu Zi glanced at the window, wondering.

Lin Min gave Qiu Zi a sideways glance, and shoved the veiled cap into Cuiyu's hand, snorting disdainfully. "What's all the fuss about? Among the big restaurants in the capital, which one doesn't have a courtyard! Fortunately, you are still the big girl in Sixth Sister's house! You are so ignorant!"

Qiu Zi smiled and didn't answer, and took the tea set and porcelain cup to make tea as usual.

Cuiyu glanced at the Second Mrs. Yang, glanced at Qiuzi's movements, and carefully stood behind Lin Min.

Lin Yao looked out of the window without squinting, as if she saw God.

Second Mrs. Yang laughed a few times, but changed the subject and said to Lin Wan: "You girl is really clever."

Lin Wan smiled, and didn't agree with Yang's words. She sat down by the window and looked at the small courtyard inside the building seriously.Yingxianlou is facing the street, and the ordinary private rooms all open to the street, and there are no windows that open inward.Originally, the place was not big, and the courtyard was in an extremely remote corner of the building.It happened that this private room was located in the back, and the location was remote. A window was opened towards the small courtyard. As far as the eye could see, there was an old tree that was as thick as two people hugging each other. .There are many flowers under the tree, colorful and blooming very lively.A little further away is a corridor, which is blocked by leaves and can't be seen clearly. Presumably, few people pass by.

Turning her eyes away, Lin Wan took the teacup from Qiu Zi, and said with a smile, "You look at this courtyard as unremarkable, but you don't know that it's reserved for Yingxian Building! I heard from my aunt that there was no such thing when I chose the site. After falling in love with this place, the Chen family hired a Feng Shui master, but insisted that this place is prosperous and prosperous, especially this ancient tree, which occupies the land of wealth, it is best not to move it, and to offer it like a god of wealth. , That's why I specially enclosed a place and built a small yard. Over the years, the business has been surprisingly good."

Qiu Zi looked at the ancient tree outside the window in surprise, and then sighed: "This tree really grows well! It's comfortable to look at."

Lin Wan burst out laughing with a "puchi". While laughing, she hastily dropped the teacup in her hand, took out a handkerchief and wiped the water stains around her mouth.

Lin Min looked at Lin Wan's master and servant laughing bitterly. She only said one word to the maid, and Lin Wan could stop her ten words!The fourth girl was touched by this soft nail, and her blood was surging, she only felt that the smiles of the two were particularly dazzling, and she wanted to go up and poke Lin Wan's face to death!With that look, and laughing so ignorantly!She fights against herself everywhere!I didn't take myself seriously!She's just an orphan girl whose father died, how dare she look down on her!

"Where's the tea?" Lin Min grabbed Cuiyu behind him, and reprimanded with an unfriendly expression, "What are you doing in a daze? Do you really think of yourself as the master? Have you learned all the rules from the dog's stomach?" Before the words finished , The teacup in his hand slapped on the table with a "snap", and the water splashed everywhere.

Cuiyu hurriedly glanced at Qiuzi and Lin Wan, took the teacup hurriedly, walked over to lift the teapot on the table and poured a full glass of water.Lin Min didn't answer, and gritted his teeth and said with a sneer, "You want to scald me to death, don't you? It seems that you are unwilling to serve me! A girl, who gave you the guts to flirt with the master?"

Lin Wan wiped the tea off her hands, watched Lin Min pointing at Sang and scolding Huai with cold eyes, and turned to look out the window.Her fourth elder sister is very strong-tempered, and she is competitive and similar to Yang's, even worse.

Lin Yao shrank back subconsciously, staring at Lin Wan and Lin Min from the corner of her eye, continuing to be in a daze.

"Sister Min!" Second Mrs. Yang frowned when she saw that Lin Min was still angry.She has not forgotten that today is a blind date!As for that girl, Yang glanced at Lin Wan and snorted in her heart, sometimes she begs for help!

Lin Min glared at Yang Shi, then pinched Cuiyu fiercely, then let out a breath of anger, and glanced coldly at the people in the room.

On the first floor, in the northwest corner of the restaurant, shopkeeper Lu caught a glimpse of the young man coming in from the side door, and quickly greeted him with a smile: "Master Qi is here! The third wife hasn't arrived yet, but the guests of Cuimingxuan have been sitting for a while. Mr. Qi How about going upstairs for a cup of tea?"

When Chen Qilang heard "Cuimingxuan", his face became hot, and he coughed like a mask: "It doesn't matter what kind of tea, just make a pot. When my mother arrives, ask someone to call me."

The shopkeeper responded, and Chen Qilang's ears gradually turned red under the shopkeeper's joking gaze, and then he escaped out of the archway and into the corridor.Halfway through the walk, he subconsciously raised his head to look at the second floor, but this glance happened to bump into a smile with a faint smile blooming like a lotus at the beginning.Chen Qilang was dazed by the breeze-like smile, and it took him a long time to move his feet.Until the light green figure looked down as if feeling something, Chen Qilang staggered back a few steps in a hurry, hidden behind the dense leaves, couldn't help looking through the gaps in the leaves, his heart was pounding, as if It's like flying out.

"Qiye?" After an unknown amount of time, shopkeeper Lu called behind Chen Qilang, his tone seemed a little puzzled.Following Chen Qilang's gaze, it is not the window of Cuimingxuan!Shopkeeper Lu understood, and there was a smile on his face.

Chen Qilang was woken up suddenly, he was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the shopkeeper's face full of jokes, his face was on fire, his ears turned red instantly, and his voice was a little unsteady. "Shopkeeper, why..."

Seeing this, shopkeeper Lu hurriedly stopped smiling and replied: "The third wife is here, she is at the door, and she hasn't got off the car yet. Seventh Master, go quickly."

With an "ah", Chen Qilang hurriedly bowed to the shopkeeper, turned half a circle, and bowed to shopkeeper Lu again, and then walked out in a clear direction.

On the second floor of Cuimingxuan, Qiuzi tidied up the tea sets deftly, and Cuiyu was behind Lin Min with her head down, unable to see her expression clearly.The second wife, Mrs. Yang, heard the maid's report, stood up, sat down, then stood up again, and smiled at Lin Wan: "Miss Wan, why don't you go to the next door first?"

Lin Wan spoke impatiently, nodded, and signaled Madam Cao to go first. "It's been a long time since I played chess with Fifth Sister. Sister and I will play next door next door."

Lin Yao stood up early, nodded in panic and said: "Okay!"

Seeing the two of them leaving with the maid, Second Mrs. Yang glared at Lin Min and warned, "Okay, calm down! People are here, why are you still looking?"

"I'm not kidding!" Lin Min stiffened his neck, but lowered his voice.

Seeing this, Mrs. Yang sighed, "I'm doing this for your own good." Immediately, she shot Cuiyu like a cold arrow, "What a disgrace! After staying with the girl for so long, I can't do anything right? I'll deal with you when I go back." !" As soon as the words were finished, footsteps came from the corridor, Second Mrs. Yang rushed to welcome the maid to open the door.Lin Min hesitated for a moment, then followed.

The two wives greeted Li first and exchanged a few pleasantries.From the corner of her eye, the third wife of Su kept circling Lin Min who was behind the second wife of Yang, and saw that she was dressed brightly and had a delicate appearance.Without saying a word, he looked quiet, and he was brought up by a big family like the Lin family. Thinking about it, it shouldn't be bad. This impression is three points better.

However, Lin Min was in a daze when she saw the young man in the crowd. She didn't expect him to be so good-looking!The eyes are so bright.The temperament is gentle, like the rising sun, which makes people happy at first sight.I heard that he is still a gifted scholar and passed the provincial examination last year.Thinking of this, Lin Min blushed slightly, and felt happy in his heart.

However, Chen Qilang was stunned at the moment he caught sight of Lin Min, and couldn't help but look into the room again. With this look, a deep sense of disappointment suddenly appeared in his heart.Not her?without her?

The two wives exchanged pleasantries for more than a quarter of an hour, talking about the family's shortcoming from the weather, and then talking about the children.The third wife of Su pulled Chen Qilang over, and smiled at the second wife of Yang, "This is my Qilang—Qilang, this is the second aunt of the Lin family, and that is the fourth girl."

Only then did Chen Qilang recover from his profound disappointment, forced a smile on his face, bowed to Yang Shi and Lin Min, and said, "My nephew, Chen Xu, has seen the second wife and the fourth girl."

Lin Min was heartbroken, and hurriedly turned sideways to return the salute.His name is Chen Xu?I don't know if it's that "Xu".Such a handsome man looks really good when he smiles.

Mrs. Su San winked at her son again, and signaled the servant girl to bring the two things she had prepared earlier.Seeing the object in the servant girl's hand clearly, Chen Xu's head cleared up instantly, and he took Su Cong and handed it to Mrs. Su San without hesitation.

Su's complexion changed slightly, she looked up at her son, and seeing his serious face, she forced a smile and said, "I came out in a hurry, and I didn't have much to show for it, I happened to meet my niece and daughter today, please accept it if you have any kindness." .”

Yang's face turned cold the moment she saw Su Chou, but now she looked at it carefully and found that it was a good Su Chou, so she curled her lips and reluctantly accepted it.

The two wives were a little less interested, and Mrs. Su San left in a hurry after saying a few more words.Yang watched the group leave the house, then patted Lin Wan's hand, frowned and sighed, picked up the Su Chou and unfolded it for a closer look.

"This, what do you mean?" Lin Min seemed to have not recovered, his tone was hesitant, but his voice was a little trembling.

(About blind dates, there were in ancient times. In ancient China, before the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was actually relatively open. I won’t say much about the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. It’s too common to have a lover occasionally, and you can still get married after that! Sui and Tang Dynasties, hey , With Wu Zetian, there are female emperors. And the emperor of the Li family seems to have no taboos in choosing women, so it is normal for the people to be more open. There was a saying in the Song Dynasty. Give the woman colored satin to shock you, if you like it, give it a hairpin and I will borrow it here for a while, there must be a difference with the real one, so you don’t need to study it carefully.)
