The moon comes to take pictures

The Su-curtained second lifts the sedan chair, flicks and flicks, and walks to the third archway.

The genius is bright, the street is noisy, Zhang Shenxiu is leaning in the sedan chair drowsily, knowing in his consciousness that it is not time to sleep, but he can't hold it anymore, and he falls into a dreamland, where there is water and pavilions , along the overgrown water plants and southern tianzhu, one can see a zigzag climbing corridor, the faint sound of silk and bamboo orchestras, and a slender shadow, wearing paddy field clothes, holding a handful of floating dust in his hand...

The sedan chair shook suddenly, a dazzling light came in, and the world of fireworks woke him up.

"Grandpa, we're home."

Zhang Shenxiu opened his eyes wearily, last night he had been making a fuss in Chang Xi's garden, and only came back in the morning. He had a lot of business to deal with, but now he couldn't do it. He stayed up all night, and his heart and lungs fell heavily on him. I can't lift my spirits at all.

His house in the third archway is a three-entry house with a garden. It is not big, but it is exquisite.Originally, he planned to live here, but according to Liu Jiao's intention, Zhang Shenxiu was going to move in the next few days. Zhang Shenxiu took a fancy to a garden on the side of Guizi Lane. It is expensive to buy now, and it is not new. But firstly, it was very close to Uncle Zhongyi's Mansion, and secondly, he also felt that the location was excellent, so he gritted his teeth and bought it.Right now, the house was full of servants cleaning and packing, seeing Zhang Shenxiu coming in, they gave way one after another, calling "Master".

Having not slept all night, Zhang Shenxiu's complexion was not very good, she blinked tiredly, and asked, "Has Liu Jiao woke up yet?"

The waiter said softly: "I'm still asleep. I waited for my master to wait until the fourth watch last night before going to bed."

"Is he annoyed? Take my agate ring and give it to him. The Nanyang imports always say they like it." Zhang Shenxiu cheered up and walked to the bedroom: "The front line is called the tailor's measurement." I got the clothes, when will they be ready, bring them quickly, Qiaoju will wear them for a treat later, send them home, and go to burn the incense first, understand?"

"I've asked, and there are still three days to finish. I just don't know what kind of incense Master and Master Liu want to use? The tailor shop also said yesterday that it will be cooler in autumn next month, and the fabric can be made thicker."

The door was pushed open, someone had already prepared a hot face towel, and someone else was rubbing the acupuncture points on his head with medicinal wine.

"Su Hexiang, they have done a lot of tailoring, as long as you have a sense of proportion." After Zhang Shenxiu gave instructions, she drank some cold water herself, then packed up and lay down on the bed to catch up on sleep.

I had a lot of dreams again, but I never dreamed of Liu Jiao again. They were all things I encountered when I was running a business. Sometimes they were some bandits who robbed their way, and sometimes they were some blue-eyed Persian who resell jade wares. Precariously, following the time at a fast speed, it seems that he has lived a strange life in a daze, but looking at the previous life, it is still a smooth business, earning a lot of money.

When I was half asleep and half awake, I looked at the pillow under my body, and there was a dazzling array of golden gold cakes, and I woke up again after dazzled.

With dry mouth, Zhang Shenxiu supported his head and slowly got up: "What time is it?"

"Master," the servant standing outside replied, "It's half past the end of the hour."

"Get water, I'll wash up." Zhang Shenxiu put on his clothes, got up slowly, and slept all morning, but still had a splitting headache. He sat at the table frowning, pouring cold water, and suddenly remembered: "Agate ring Did you send it?"

The waiter lowered his head: "Give it up, Young Master Liu put it on, he likes it so much, I just watched it outside for a while, and then went out."

"where it goes?"

"Don't let me ask, I'm sure I'll know."

It seems that they are looking for Ning Ruichen.

As the day of housewarming approached, Liu Jiao must have hoped that Yuan Junyu would come, but His Royal Highness has a strange temper and would not easily accept the post without resorting to some means.Liu Jiao finally got hold of his master, and turned to invite Ning Ruichen, who was easy to talk to. Anyway, they had a good relationship, and after a while, they agreed to the appointment.

Thinking of Yuan Junyu's appearance, Zhang Shenxiu was still a little afraid, but he couldn't say why, it seemed that he was naturally born with this kind of fear.It stands to reason that they are all on Chang Xi's side, so they should get close to each other.

Then again, on Chang Xi's side, he was always lumpy.

Liu Jiao was the greatest favor he received from Chang Xi, Zhang Shenxiu thought, because of this favor, he would have to be sad for Chang Xi no matter what.Xie Yan also persuaded him, although he said that working for the eunuchs had a dull face, but they are businessmen, they are looked down upon by others, besides, this bit of face, even if it grows on the face, is it enough to make him earn a lot of money?

In recent years, the family has also gradually declined. If it weren't for his connections outside, I'm afraid it wouldn't last for a few years.Although Zhang Shenxiu didn't like the behavior of eunuchs, he knew clearly that doing things with Chang Xi was the long-term solution.

After Zhang Shenxiu finished washing, she sat down on the teacher's chair, stretched out her hand to grab a handful of pine nuts, spread out a snow-white handkerchief, and peeled it slowly.

Today is a rare opportunity to turn off the chores of the chamber of commerce. Zhang Shenxiu counted the hours and reckoned that Liu Jiao would be back in a while. I don't know what book to sing today, but still thinking about the same as before?I'm tired of hearing that, it's not as good as the new garden tour... Just as I was thinking, someone came to report from outside.

"Thank you boss for coming."

From here to the door, it wouldn't be too far away, and when the servants turned around to make tea, Xie Yan walked in.

"Wei Qing?" Zhang Shenxiu continued peeling the pine nuts, raised her head, and signaled Xie Yan to sit beside her: "I just drank a lot of wine last night, you should take a break."

"Don't be in a hurry." Xie Yan's eyes fell on the table: "I saw that you are tidying up everywhere here. In two days, you will be moving?"

"On the tenth day of next month," Zhang Shenxiu peeled the pine nuts, "Let's make an agreement first, no matter how busy you are, you have to come."

Xie Yan responded in a low voice.

Zhang Shenxiu's move was beyond Xie Yan's expectations, not because of his friend's running around looking for a house for an irrelevant actor, but because of this inexplicable obedience and integrity.

For one person, it is possible to do such a thing?Xie Yan gently shook his fan, hesitated again and again, and asked in a secretive way: "You...what's the relationship now?"

As if being stabbed by the tip of a needle, Zhang Shenxiu suddenly stopped, with the intention of evading: "It's, it's a close friend."

"If you're like this, are you considered close friends?" Xie Yan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, not showing much of a smile: "When you first came to Nanjing, you were so fascinated."

Zhang Shenxiu stiffened her mouth: "I like his plays."

"I think," Xie Yan didn't save him the slightest bit of face, "You like him, right?"

Zhang Shenxiu choked, and sighed softly for a while.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, get out as soon as possible, this kind of thing, what is it—"

"Deviating from the scriptures." Zhang Shenxiu's brows and eyes were full of sadness: "Weiqing, you are a real gentleman. If you don't say this kind of thing, we will end here. But I am not reconciled. I am so reluctant to let go because I am afraid Thinking about it in the future, I will regret it for the rest of my life.”

Maybe it was hurt by the word "forever", Xie Yan couldn't look away, and said anxiously: "Say such a serious thing!...There is nothing that can be remembered for a lifetime."

Zhang Shenxiu only thought that he didn't understand, so she laughed a few times and stopped mentioning it.

The two sat for a while, talked about some recent business matters, and heard Xie Yan say: "The salt transportation in the Jianghuai River, the dust has generally settled... the few companies in Nanjing have to take care of it immediately. We need to find a reliable bodyguard team when we are calling at the port in Songjiang to secure the goods..."

Zhang Shenxiu cheered up, he wrote down the troubles Xie Yan mentioned one by one, and came up with ideas.

"What's more, in two days' time, there will be a big deal, we will go to Zhejiang." Xie Yan stared at him with an unusual expression.

Zhang Shenxiu didn't take it seriously, he just thought it was some big man from Nanjing who was coming to condescend to honor these small businessmen, he piled the handful of pine nuts on a snow-white silk cloth, folded the corners and said, "Decision-making." It's up to you to go."

It means that I don't want to leave.

Xie Yan watched him handle the pile of pine nuts, his eyes flashed a little complicated, and he said slowly: "If the negotiation is completed, in a few months, we will return to Taicang Port to pick up the goods, and go south to handle business."
