##

On the way leading to the back hall, there was a servant who guarded the door. Seeing two men holding hands and rushing in, he hurriedly stopped him and said, "Hey, hey! What are you doing? Please don't rush into the house in the Hefeng building. Please have dinner. Go upstairs, please go out to use the toilet and turn right."

Su Jin said: "We are friends of your shopkeeper, just now we saw her enter the backyard, so we went to visit her."

The servant looked Su Jin and Li Chong up and down, and said mockingly: "My shopkeeper's friend? Your method is too bad. I see twenty or thirty people like you here every day. Please get a fresh one." Reason to come again."

Su Jin and Li Chong were so depressed that they were regarded as disciples who came to harass them.

Yan Biyun had just removed the veil that blocked the ashes, sat down to take a breath, and before she had a cup of tea, she heard a noisy sound from a distance, and frowned and asked Xiao Xianer to go and have a look.

Xiao Xian'er came angrily along the gravel path to spread flowers and willows, and when she heard the noise at the entrance, she immediately became angry, and stepped forward to scold: "Do you still have any rules? Miss just sat down to rest , Passers-by who have been driving for three days are almost exhausted, did you do this on purpose? If you don’t want to do it, pack your bags and go home!"

Su Jin looked up, and happened to meet Xiao Xian'er's raging eyes. The two of them looked at each other. Xiao Xian'er's mouth opened wide, and she froze all of a sudden, and stammered, "Su...Su... Mr. Su, why are you?"

Su Jin smiled and said: "Isn't it me? I was eating upstairs, and when I saw your shopkeeper enter the door, I wanted to say hello, but I didn't expect to be regarded as a trespasser by this brother. Brother Li couldn't be more angry I just started arguing with him, but it disturbed Miss Xiao Xianer, forgive me!"

Xiaoxian'er felt awkward, the person she was most afraid of seeing, but she met him as soon as she entered the house. She got mad and broke the head of Mr. Su indiscriminately. She didn't see him for many days, and she couldn't escape.

"Miss Xiao Xianer, are they..." the doorkeeper asked timidly, confused.

Xiaoxian'er was full of anger and had no place to vent her anger, so she said, "They are the shopkeeper's distinguished customers, you really don't make progress, how many times have you been here, but you are so open-eyed, you don't know how to know people, and you don't know how to treat people." Don't let them in?"

The servant was full of grievances, and thought: How many times I come here is none of my business, didn't I just come here from Bianliang with you?You come to work without drinking a sip of water, and you are angry with your stinky little lady.

But honey seemed to be on his mouth, he changed his breath instantly, turned his head to Su Jin and Li Chong and said, "You two officials, villains have eyes but don't know Mount Tai, you two adults don't care about villains, the prime minister's stomach If I can punt, the two of you just now will treat me as a fart, please hurry up."

The two were able to enter the backyard, and Xiao Xianer rushed back to report as if she was running away. Yan Biyun hurriedly adjusted her clothes and hair accessories, and stood at the entrance of the hall to greet her, thinking wildly in her mind: He came as soon as I entered the door, could it be? Are you crazy about my love, waiting in Hefeng Tower every day?

Thinking about it this way, his face turned red immediately, and he scolded himself for being sentimental. How could Su Jin stay here waiting for her with nothing to do? Most likely, he just met her, and then felt that why did the person who always claimed to be calm and composed treat this 16 It's unbelievable that a young man who is [-] years old cares so much.

Between self-complaints and self-pity, Su Jin and Li Chong have already come to the front, saluting and returning blessings, Yan Biyun sneaked a glance at Su Jin in his busy schedule, Su Xiaoguan still has the same demeanor, but his skin is a little tanned, and his stature seems to be stronger point, but the smile is still so bright; the short moment they looked at each other, both of them had a trembling feeling of being struck by lightning.

The three of them sat down and chatted happily. Li Chong looked at his words, and seemed to understand that he was a super big light bulb. After sitting for a while, he made an excuse to leave. Finally, only Su Jin and Yan Biyun were left, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.

The two were silent for a while, then Yan Biyun suddenly said, "I almost forgot, I have something for you."

Su Jin smiled and said, "Why spend so much money?"

Yan Biyun said softly: "I like the necklace you gave me very much, this is a return gift, and I also like that poem."

Su Jin thought: I will give you a necklace, and you will give me a gift in return. Is this considered an exchange of tokens?

Yan Biyun got up and went into the inner room, and after a while came out with a small woolen box in both hands, and handed it to Su Jin. Su Jin took it with both hands, and opened it lightly, only to see a piece of crystal clear white jade lying inside. The color is pure and moist, and the creamy shape exudes a subtle luster. Three delicate and vivid fruits are engraved in a triangular hollow on the front. If you look closely, there are lychees, walnuts, and longan; look at the back, which is flat and unadorned, and there are eight large characters carved on it. "A modest gentleman is as gentle as jade.".

Yan Biyun asked softly, "Do you like it?"

Su Jin nodded happily in his heart and said, "I like it very much. Such a valuable thing must be worth a lot of money."

Yan Biyun smiled and said, "Does it really matter how much it's worth?"

Su Jin was stunned, and thought: "The typical tone of Bai Fumei, the subtext is: money is not important, this friendship is the most important."

"As long as it is a gift from Ms. Yan, even if it is a bark, I will regard it as the treasure of the town house."

Yan Biyun's smile trembled wildly, knowing that this person's words were insincere, he still liked it very much in his heart, and said softly: "The name of this adornment is 'Da San Yuan', it is Hetian mutton jade, the walnuts on it symbolize harmony and beauty, and the lychees symbolize beauty Meaning Dakai Lishi, longan symbolizes reunion, and the three kinds of fruits are all round, so they are called Sanyuan, implying the meaning of the three yuan.”

Su Jin laughed and said, "I'm not going to take the imperial examination. The meaning of Da Sanyuan is useless, but it's very profitable. I like harmony and beauty. I really like reunion."

Yan Biyun rolled his eyes at him and said: "What's wrong with taking the imperial examination, maybe you will go there one day."

Su Jin smiled and said: "Yes, yes, be prepared." After saying that, he took out the jade pendant, hung it around his waist, replaced his own butterfly pendant, and put it in the box; Playing with it in his hand, he suddenly found that the purple-red tassels under the jade pendant were very finely knotted. He was so busy playing with the jade pendant just now that he didn't notice this.

Yan Biyun saw that he was playing with the string of Luoying over and over again, and his face blushed again, and finally couldn't help saying: "The Luoying...is made by the slave's own hands, but is it still eye-catching?"

Su Jin raised his head in a daze, looked at Yan Biyun's beautiful face, and suddenly two lines of poetry appeared in his heart: "Why do you form a relationship? Beautiful jade with Luoying"

The way women express their feelings in ancient times is extremely subtle. There is a saying in the Book of Songs: "Kindly and intimate, ninety is the most beautiful." 'The so-called knotting means to help Ai Lang's Peiyu knot a tassel. A woman knotting a knot for a man is an implicit expression of admiration.

Yan Biyun knew from Su Jin's expression that he understood the meaning. He was also blushing, lowered his head and pinched the corner of his clothes, acting like a child.
