Long Xiangye tossed and turned all night, only closed his eyes and took a nap at dawn.

When he got up, Xiao Xiangsheng was no longer on the bed.

Long Xiangye was shocked, and hurriedly shouted to the outside of the tent: "He Rui! He Rui! Where has the master gone?" He lifted the quilt and sat up.

He Rui is Long Xiangye's big servant girl, she has a long face, two slight freckles on her cheeks, she speaks and does things very sharply and competently, she is usually Long Xiangye's indispensable right-hand man.

"Madam, don't worry. It was the master who ordered Madam to sleep for a while. The master has already gone to the shop in Dongshi. The master also ordered that today I will take the young master to meet the master, and I will take the young master out together. —— Madam in the morning What do you want to eat?" He Rui said, stretched out her hand to open the curtain, and hung it on the golden curtain hook beside the bed, a pair of twisted gold bracelets on Hao's wrist touched the golden curtain hook, making a crisp sound of urging.

The master values ​​his eldest son.

Long Xiangye was proud and happy at the same time, and then thought of the old lady, and hurriedly said: "The master is my friend, but the master is a man after all, and he doesn't understand the things in the inner house. How can I Can I sleep?——The old lady is still waiting for me to go to the morning and evening meditation."

Xiao Xiangsheng's father passed away three years ago, and Xiao Xiangsheng's mother, Gu Shi, refused to remarry, so she took her youngest son, Xiao Ruisheng, to live in the Fengqin Hall on the south side of the back garden.

Long Xiangye couldn't help sighing when she thought of her little uncle.I was born to the same father and mother as the master, why is there such a big difference in appearance?However, my brother-in-law is also 16 years old this year, so we should say kiss, and we can no longer live in the back garden with the old lady.

After breakfast, Long Xiangye took the two little maids to the Qinqin Hall in the back garden to pay her respects.The two women followed behind, each holding a ruler wrapped in a red cloth bundle.

In the Qinqin Hall, Gu Shi had just had breakfast and was talking to his youngest son Xiao Ruisheng.

Seeing Long Xiangye coming in, Xiao Ruisheng quickly stood up and saluted, "Sister-in-law is here."

Gu Shi looked at Long Xiangye with a smile, "Where's Brother Ji? Why didn't you see him?" The eldest grandson Xiao Shiji is Gu Shiji's treasure, second only to her youngest son Xiao Ruisheng.

Long Xiangye bowed respectfully to Mrs. Gu, "Master took Brother Ji out and said that he wanted to worship him as a master. ——Mother, when did you wake up today? Did you sleep well? Have breakfast in the morning Is it? If there is anything else you want to add, tell the daughter-in-law. The daughter-in-law will take care of it properly." After speaking, he turned back and asked the mother-in-law to bring up the two rulers she was holding.

"Mother, these are two new-color rulers that our silk and satin shop sent the day before yesterday." Long Xiangye opened the bundle in person.

Gu Shi was most interested in the material of the clothes, so he hurriedly went up to take a closer look.

"This double-filament light yellow ground-printed mandarin duck bouquet yarn is evenly dyed, and the color is delicate, but the layers are progressive, the rendering is proper, and the yarn is delicate. It is purchased at a high price from an embroidery shop in the south of the Yangtze River this year in our shop. A treasure from Jinshang. The daughter-in-law knew that mother’s birthday was approaching, so she specially asked the clerk in the shop to spare one and make a Xiang skirt for mother to wear.” Long Xiangye explained in detail, and opened another package, “here It is a blue-bottomed auspicious flower brocade, the colors are complicated but not crowded, the red and white borders are matched with crimson yellow lines, and there is also a green flower heart, which is in harmony with the royal blue ground color. Made into a half arm, it would be a perfect pair with the long lapis lazuli chain that Xiangsheng brought back for mother from the Western Regions!"

Gu Shi laughed from ear to ear, and said angrily: "You child, what you say is better than what you sing!" Then he called his maid to collect two rulers, and said a few gossips, and said: "Go and do your work. I have Ruisheng here to accompany me. You have helped me a lot by taking good care of the family, Xiangsheng and Ji Geer."

Gu Shi is a careless mother-in-law, which saves Long Xiangye a lot of thought.

"Thank you mother-in-law for your compassion. Then I'm leaving." Long Xiangye wanted to mention Xiao Ruisheng's matter, but seeing that Gu Shi didn't mention it, she could only swallow her words and let him go directly to talk to Xiao Xiangsheng when he came back. Gu Shi said that it was more appropriate than what he said.

Xiao Xiangsheng brought Xiao Shiji to his shop, first glanced at the recent account book, asked a few casual questions, and said to Xiao Shiji: "Shiji, let's go to your Uncle Du's house for lunch, how about it?" ?”

Xiao Shiji said with a smile, "I will listen to my father."

Du Xiancheng is bold and informal, and has more friends than Xiao Xiangsheng.Xiao Xiangsheng thought about introducing a good master to Xiao Shiji, Du Xiancheng knew a lot of people, maybe he could help.Besides, Xiao Shiji is his son-in-law, for his daughter's sake, Du Xiancheng should also do his part to raise this son-in-law well...

Xiao Xiangsheng pursed his lips and smiled, and brought Xiao Shiji to Du's house.

He knew that as long as Du Xiancheng was in Chang'an, no matter how busy the shop was, he would always go home for dinner.

"Brother Xiao is here? Please hurry!" Du Xiancheng just sat down in the dining room, ready to eat.Fang Wuniang sat beside Du Hengshuang, who had just finished breastfeeding, and accompanied her.

Xiao Xiangsheng walked in with Xiao Shiji, and first saluted Wu Niang, "I'm sorry to bother you two."

Fang Wuniang said with a smile: "Brother Xiao is offended by saying that." He asked the father and son to sit down.

There are already two more sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table, and a plate of mustard cakes that children love, which has just been fried from the oil pan.

Since Xiao Xiangsheng came, Du Xiancheng asked someone to bring wine, and they ate and drank together.

Seeing that Xiao Shiji had finished eating soon, Fang Wuniang took him away and went back to the upper room.

Xiao Xiangsheng was relieved to hand over Xiao Shiji to Fang Wuniang.

Du Xiancheng dismissed all the waiters in the dining room, and whispered to Xiao Xiangsheng.

Xiao Xiangsheng first explained the purpose of his visit.

Du Xiancheng agreed, "No problem. I'll ask my brother-in-law tomorrow. He knows a lot of scholars, so he should be able to find a good candidate." After speaking, he was curious, "Isn't your father-in-law from a scholarly family? Let him find him Is it okay to have one?"

Xiao Xiangsheng didn't want Xiao Shiji to get too involved with the Long family, so he gave Du Xiancheng a look, "You don't know about my family? Why bother to tease me again."

Du Xiancheng hastily accepted his smile, and said seriously: "Brother, I'm really not being sarcastic. I just think that no matter what the Long family is, they are all Shiji's nieces. You can't be too decisive with them, and let the sister-in-law and Shiji lose face." It's not pretty."

Xiao Xiangsheng nodded, "I can save it. It's just that Shiji is too young to distinguish right from wrong. When he is older, sensible, and less able to be provoked by others, I will explain to him in detail."
