Wait a minute, heroine

Chapter 36 Sanniang, you...

On the other side, while Pei Xiangjun gave Ye Jingtang a few days off, he began to prepare various things for Ye Jingtang to "recognize their ancestors and return to the ancestral hall".

The Red Flower House is large in scale, with branches spread all over the world. It was originally an organization formed by an alliance of several boat gangs, with the Pei family serving as the spokesperson. After it evolved into the "Honghua House", the branch of the Pei family was called "Qinglong" Tang'.

The capital was the center of trade throughout the Wei Dynasty, and Honghua Tower could not be left unattended in the capital. For this reason, when the country was founded, the Pei family took advantage of the situation and moved the Qinglong Hall to the capital.

However, as a martial arts family, the Pei family was rooted at the feet of the emperor, and they did not dare to show off as a martial arts family. They had always hidden in the market and made secret arrangements.

At noon, in the living room of the Pei family mansion, three incense owners, two men and one woman, who had come from afar, were sitting at the banquet.

The men are two old men named Li Sanwen and Wang Ren, and the woman is Mrs. Huang Zhu. They are both the incense masters of Qinglong Hall.

Pei Xiangjun and his eldest aunt, Mrs. Zhang, were sitting under the nave, listening to Mrs. Huang Zhu’s complaints:

"Whether the Zhou family comes to the dock to grab business, or a second-rate character like Baoyuanmen, they also want to get a share of the pie. If I don't take the overall situation into consideration, I have to go to Baoyuan Mountain in person to reason..."

The owner of the incense, Li Sanwen, is the oldest and is currently the oldest ‘uncle’ in Qinglong Hall. Even Pei Xiangjun has to be addressed as an elder. At this time, he was holding a teacup and shaking his head:

"Li Hunyuan is a master of 'Bao Yuan Jin', and he is also a famous master in the entire Yunzhou. You are a little incense master, how can you reason with others?"

This statement sounds like Mrs. Huang Zhu doesn't know how high the sky is, but the meaning behind her words is that she is dissatisfied with Pei Xiangjun for not being able to control the Jianghu people.

Mrs. Huang Zhu retorted: "My business has been robbed, why can't I talk about it? You are an old man in the family, it's your turn to take action in this kind of thing, but in the end, you can't get ahead, and you still sit here and cynicize..."

Snapped--

Li Sanwen patted the table.

Pei Xiangjun raised his hand to stop the two people from arguing:

"Stop arguing. I have called you here this time to introduce you to someone. Yuanfeng left an adopted son named Ye Jingtang. He came to the capital a few days ago. He is a nice person..."

"How old is Night Terror Hall this year?"

"Eighteen, a bit young..."

Li Sanwen had a straight temper and said directly:

"At the age of eighteen, I don't even have a good foundation, so what can I do? The poster mobilized all the people to call back all the foreign masters. Is he planning to give up his job and find someone from the Pei family to take over? If this is the case, it is better to let Pei Luo be the poster... "

Mrs. Zhang was dissatisfied: "Luo'er is not a Jianghu person, so he shouldn't be allowed to know about Jianghu affairs. Furthermore, given Luoer's idle temperament, how can you let him know that the family has so much money? He can take over the White Horse Academy tomorrow Buy it and become your own wife..."

Pei Xiangjun knew that the incense owners could not trust the young people, so he said again:

"Although Jingtang is young, he has a well-organized approach to life. His martial arts skills are not very high, but he is still considered a top-notch master. You will know the details when you see him, and you will never be disappointed."

The three incense masters looked solemn when they heard this.

There are rumors in the market that the beginning of the Jianghu affair is the Grand Master Ba Dagui, and the first and second-rate masters are a bit unworthy of the stage, but the reality is definitely not the case.

With the size of Honghua Tower, only three people are respected as grandmasters by outsiders. To be as strong as She Long and Shang Jianli is also a 'guru's shame'. You can imagine how high the threshold for first-class masters is.

Wang Ren's eyes were slightly questioning, but he didn't see anyone and couldn't refute, so he nodded and said:

"Since the poster is so optimistic, he will bring him over for me to see him when all the incense masters have arrived. If it is true as the poster said, it will be a blessing for our Qinglong Hall and even the Honghua Tower."

Li Sanwen thought about it for a moment: "The host called us all here. Could it be that he is planning to directly establish Ye Jingtang as the young master?"

"That's what I meant."

"How can this be achieved? Nowadays, there are internal and external troubles in Honghua Building. Baihutang can focus on the position of helmsman. Once the building owner appoints a young master, he will not be able to convince the public..."

Pei Xiangjun said solemnly: "I can make this decision and I am sure of it. As long as you have seen Jingtang, you won't think that I am acting too hastily."

Li Sanwen saw that Pei Xiangjun had made up his mind and said displeasedly:

"Okay, I want to see what kind of young man can make the poster so determined. If I make things difficult for the younger generation, please forgive me."

If you want your subordinates to surrender, it's useless to just rely on the boss's praise. You have to rely on your own ability. Pei Xiangjun didn't say much.

After a few people chatted for a while, Wang Ren talked about the difficulties again:

"Last time I went to the Zhou family, I saw a manager who didn't even see the second uncle of the Zhou family. He was really unkind. The business at Qingjiang Pier is in decline. If we don't negotiate with the Zhou family and draw a clear line..."

"The old lady of the Zhou family is about to celebrate her birthday. I will come to celebrate her birthday and talk about it by the way. If the Zhou family doesn't give you face, I will come forward in person. They have to weigh it."

The three incense owners obviously had objections to this. After all, there is no precedent for the head of a wealthy family to go to other houses to discuss small business in person.

Mrs. Huang Zhu saw that the atmosphere was a bit depressing, so she opened her mouth to smooth things over:

"Old Master Zhou is a famous swordsmith. He has forged no less than a thousand swords in his life. On this 80th birthday, all the famous celebrities in Zezhou will come to congratulate him. It is said that even the wife of the leader of Pingtian Sect will be there. The poster doesn't count if he goes there. Losing face......"

Pei Xiangjun didn't want to talk about troublesome things, so he changed the topic:

"I have never met the Toad Palace Goddess. I heard that she was once the most beautiful woman in the world..."

Mrs. Zhang smiled: "You are at the disadvantage of being the helmsman of Honghua Tower and cannot show your face. If you come dressed beautifully and sit with the goddess of the Toad Palace, the title of the most beautiful woman in the world will probably fall to you from now on. I’m in Honghualou.”

"Alas~" Pei Xiangjun shook his head: "When I am the helmsman of Honghualou, I am famous for my appearance. If word spreads, no one will take Honghualou seriously..."

——

The next morning.

It's sunny after the rain, and people are stepping out of their homes one after another. The streets along Tianshui Bridge are crowded with people, and the sound of hawking is endless.

Ye Jingtang took a few days off and spent the whole day hanging out with Luo Ning. She almost forgot about Sanniang.

Just when he got up this morning, Yang Chao suddenly ran over and said that Sanniang wanted to see him for something. Only then did he remember that he had to go to work.

Although he has only been here a few days, what he has done is no small matter. Most people near Tianshui Bridge know him, and you can hear greetings from various shops along the way:

"Master Ye."

"The young master is here..."

…

After Ye Jingtang said hello, he came to the outside of the Pei family's mansion deep in the lane.

Sanniang was wearing a goose-yellow waist-length undershirt, standing in front of the door with her maid Xiuhe, looking up, her gentle and demure appearance was just like Xiaojiabiyu who was looking forward to the return of her husband.

"Sanniang, why are you waiting outside the door again?"

"Jiji!"

Pei Xiangjun was nagged by several incense owners for a long time yesterday, and he felt a little resentful in his heart. He hugged the flying bird and frowned, like a wronged little daughter-in-law:

"I'm giving you a few days off. I want you to treat the Pei family as a family member. The result is great. You don't show your face when there is no business, and you don't even fly back. You really treat the Pei family as outsiders, ugh~..."

"grumble."

Birds and birds are also aggrieved to show their innocence.

Ye Jingtang looked a little ashamed, and went into the house with Pei Xiangjun, explaining:

"I took Prince Jing's sign. I had nothing to do these two days, so I went to Heiyatou to make some connections and help with some errands."

"You are really capable. You can even catch a wingless owl. It seems that your salary must be increased. Otherwise, if you take any case in the future, you will make more than if you worked for the Pei family for half a year, and you will not be able to make a living."

"Handling a case is like licking blood with a knife, and the risk is high. There is no security here in Sanniang. The salary does not need to be increased. With the current salary, I feel like I am eating soft food... free rice..."

While chatting, the three of them turned around the corridor and entered directly into the hanging flower door.

Just past the hanging flower gate is the back house. Since the young master Pei Luo is not here, the eldest aunt, Pei Luo's concubine, maids and others live inside, all of them are women.

As a man, Ye Jingtang felt that it was not appropriate to go in, so he said:

"Sanniang called me here, is there something wrong?"

Pei Xiangjun petted the bird and said unhappily:

"Can't I ask you to come and sit down if I have nothing to do?"

"..."

Ye Jingtang was unable to refute, so he could only look straight along the way, walking through the lotus pond beside the koi pond, and arrived at the main courtyard where the long house lived.

Ye Jingtang originally thought that Sanniang was going to take him to sit in the tea garden, but as he walked, he realized that he was going in the wrong direction - Sanniang came to the outside of the bedroom with graceful steps and ordered:

"Xiuhe, you should go and rest first."

Xiuhe, who was following behind, ran out quickly.

"..."

Ye Jingtang glanced at the empty courtyard and the swaying and beautiful back in front of him. It was normal for him to think wrongly and hesitated to speak:

"Sanniang, you..."

"Come in."

Squeak——

The door opened and Sanniang entered the elegant bedroom. She turned around and glanced around to see if anyone was paying attention.

?

What is this going to do?

Ye Jingtang looked at Sanniang as if she was preparing to have an affair, and felt really weird in her heart, so she asked:

"This is Sanniang's boudoir. Isn't it appropriate for me to come in?"

Pei Xiangjun looked away and saw that Ye Jingtang was thinking wrongly, but he did not explain:

"Come in, let me tell you something, and no one will see you."

Ye Jingtang hesitated for a while and finally entered the bedroom.

Click.

After Pei Xiangjun entered the house after Night Terror, he threw the bird out and then closed the door, leaving only a man and a woman alone in the boudoir.

"grumble?!"

Ye Jingtang turned around with surprised eyes, looking at the charming Sanniang:

"Well……"

Pei Xiangjun came to the bed and sat down, with a gentle and elegant posture, and patted his side:

"Jingtang, come and sit down."

"Sanniang, you..."

"Sit down! Stop thinking!"

?

We're already in bed, and you're telling me to stop imagining things?

Ye Jingtang saw Sanniang frowning slightly, a little unhappy, so she had to sit down next to her:

"I...I'm stupid!"

As soon as Ye Jingtang sat down by the bed, he found that the bottom was empty, the bed collapsed, and he fell back.

Boom——

But in the blink of an eye, the two of them landed in the dark underground, with the show bed above closed, leaving no light at all.

Ye Jingtang really didn't expect this, and looked around with lingering fear:

"Sanniang? What are you doing?"

"What do you think I want to do?"

"Well……"

Ye Jingtang thought what Pei Xiangjun was going to do to him, so he explained:

"I thought Sanniang was going to introduce my family's business to me, but I didn't expect to introduce it in a place like this... Where is this?"

"Hmph~"

Bah...

The sound of the fire breaking off was heard, and the faint light of the fire illuminated their cheeks.

Pei Xiangjun put the fire stick to an oil lamp next to the stone wall. The oil lamp lit up, and then the lamps spread forward one after another, and a door appeared at the front of the tunnel.

Pei Xiangjun restrained his delicate temperament, straightened his clothes a little, and walked along the tunnel towards the underground door.

The distracting thoughts that Night Terror Hall had just suppressed arose again at this time - after all, bedrooms, secret passages, and basements can easily make people think of some inappropriate things...

"where is this place?"

Squeak——

While talking, the door opened, and the brightly lit hall appeared in front of us...
