Qin Ban

Spring comes quietly, whispers, the land is moist, and the wicker hangs down, and you know that spring is coming.

The Chen family is the master of Xiushui.So the birthday of the head of the family, Chen Qian, was naturally very lively.Most of the rich, noble, young, young, young, ladies and wives who are rarely seen in ordinary times are now gathered in the Chen family's compound.Houses of merchants are not as particular as those of officials and officials. Except for those ladies who have not yet betrothed to others and are old enough to discuss marriage, if they are wives or children, there is no restraint on the defense of men and women. Nowadays, they are in twos and threes. There are also a lot of people who play well on weekdays and get together.

"Yo! It's Mr. Qin!" Qin Ban's carriage rumbled to the gate of Chen's house. It was also his first time to come to Chen's house.Although this Chen Qian is not very pleasing, but just looking at it from the gate, Qin Ban really has to say that the Chen Mansion is indeed luxurious: "It is really an honor for Mr. Chen to come to the humble house with the honor of Mr. Qin. Come, come, Xu'er, You welcome guests here first, and I will take Mr. Qin to the garden first."

Qin Ban didn't expect Chen Qian to be so enthusiastic. He glanced at Qin Cai and asked the servants to give all the gifts brought by the door. Then he glanced at Chen Xu who was standing at the door, raised his eyebrows and walked towards Chen Qian walked into Chen's mansion in the direction of bending down and stretching his fingers.

"Master Chen, you have put a lot of thought into this mansion." Qin Ban walked all the way, and thought that the Zhizhou Mansion was already beautifully built, but unexpectedly, compared with the Chen Mansion, it was actually slightly inferior .This Chen Mansion can be said to be one scene at a time. He looked carefully and found that it was connected to the bridge and the pillars beside the road. People had been hired to carve patterns. The images were so vivid that he couldn't help but marvel at the painstaking work of the carvings. Human skills are deep.And this is obviously a merchant's home, but it is full of all kinds of orchids.The four gentlemen among the flowers are not as good as peonies, nor as good as roses, but at this price... I am afraid they are the only ones that can match: "I never thought that a businessman like Mr. Chen would like orchids?"

When Qin Ban said these words, he couldn't help being somewhat mocking.But Chen Qian didn't take it seriously. As a businessman, in addition to adultery, he also needs to have a thick skin: "Where, my house is inherited from my ancestors, and it has been with me for several generations. The stone pillars I saw just now They were all carved by someone just a few days ago. As for the orchids, they are just a little hobby of my family." This is straightforward, if he is to choose, it must be filled with peonies , but his wife thinks that the peony has an appearance, but the inside is stinky, so she asked someone to find these orchids to plant.

Originally, both Chen's father and son thought that although the orchid's leaves are usually slender, they are not tall and inconspicuous.If those pots are missing, just planting on the ground is nothing more than clumps of weeds with tough leaves.Besides, although this flower has a melodious fragrance, it has few blooms, and it finally bloomed, and the flowers are not big. If you don’t sit there and enjoy it, it’s really meaningless.Fortunately, their family also interacted with some scholars. When those people saw it, they praised them and said that they were happy orchids and had good taste.I also said a lot, the orchids are elegant, the four gentlemen among the flowers, and they have a strong character.In short, it is all kinds of compliments, and they are flattered to praise them, and feel that they are not much different from the gentlemen in those populations.Although I didn't like it, I didn't throw it away, and exchanged for those beautiful and delicate flowers.

"These pots are all good Molan that Zhuo Jing just asked someone to find this year. If Mr. Qin likes it, I will ask someone to send it to the mansion in a while." Chen Qian was already half a step behind Qin Ban. Seeing Qin Ban stop in front of several orchid plants, he immediately opened his mouth.He had long wanted to curry favor with Qin Ban, but knowing that this person likes masculinity, there was nothing else he could do.Those gold, silver and jade antiques and famous paintings that were sent earlier were all returned, which seemed inhumane and made it difficult for people to start. Now that this is a rare good opportunity, of course he is going to go for it.

Qin Ban didn't like orchids very much at first, but these two plants were so rare that he stopped to look at them, and then heard Chen Qian's eager voice.These flowers are placed here, surrounded by such a philistine atmosphere, it is really aggrieved: "There is no need to give them away, Qin doesn't like orchids, Master Chen should keep them for himself."

He Qin Ban always felt that the things he took from these people's homes were contaminated with their aura. It didn't mean that he was noble, but it was just a foul smell, which made people feel uncomfortable.

Seeing Qin Ban's frowning from the side, Liu An involuntarily quickened his pace, and even glanced at Qin Ban worriedly by half a step beyond Master Chen.Qin Ban received Liu An's gaze, lost all his original thoughts, blinked at him funny, and said clearly: "The garden is in front of you, so you don't need to send it off, Mr. Chen, I've heard people sound."

"How can this be done!" Chen Qian said without thinking.

Qin Ban turned his head, glanced at Chen Qian, and asked: "Why can't it work? Is there anyone who doesn't know my front? Besides, there are many guests coming and going in the Chen residence today, and Master Chen is here alone to accompany me It doesn’t make sense, I brought my own people and I will go shopping by myself.”

Chen Qian hasn't established a good relationship with Qin Ban yet, but seeing Qin Ban's firm attitude, there is no doubt about it, so he can't say anything more, but at least he has left two capable servants behind him, and told him to take good care of him up.Although as Qin Ban said, most of the people in front of him were Liu Jia and others who were talking, but it still prevented someone from bumping into Qin Ban, and the loss outweighed the gain.For today, he didn't even invite Wang Fu.

In the Wang family at this time, Wang Fu was seriously ill because of the pent-up anger in his heart, and although he was unwilling, there was nothing he could do about it.The more I think about it, the more depressed I become, and I'm still sick until now.While he was lying on the bed, he was still thinking of using his physical discomfort as an excuse to push back Chen Qian's birthday banquet. Qin Ban couldn't afford to offend him. Chen Qian, who was the first to pull away at that time, must know something. When let him eat a turtle.He was actually told directly that Chen Qianlai posted that he would not invite Wang Fu to his birthday banquet, saying that he was considerate of Wang Fu's physical discomfort, bah, whoever said that would believe who was stupid!

One day, Wang Fu was so angry that he smashed glasses and beat people at home, but no matter what, their family might really be in trouble.Chen Qian had already said with his own attitude that he wanted to draw a clear line with him.The post that came up at this juncture was not about being considerate of his body, it was clearly about worrying that he would lose face, so he went to attend some kind of birthday banquet by himself, and if he ran into Qin Ban, it would make things difficult for Qin Ban.

"Hmph, this damned Chen Qian, no one can beat him when he gets into trouble!" Because Chen Qian walked away from Qin Ban, he immediately returned to his son's side.His son is only slightly better than Wang Fu's Wang Shi'an, but he is also a dude after all, he doesn't know how much he can have?I handed over the reception to him just now, but I was really not at ease.Now that Qin Ban doesn't need him to accompany him, of course he brought this matter back immediately: "Ache!" He just stood still and sneezed loudly. Fortunately, he took a look. No one came, so I blocked it with my clothes sleeve and wiped it off.

"Father, why did you come back so soon?" Wang Shi'an broke into something before and was locked up by his father for a long time. I don’t know who it is, and she wanted to go forward to tease her, when she heard his father sneeze loudly: "Father, are you suffering from the cold? Why don't you go and rest, and I'll do it for you." "His father is here, and he really dare not provoke him.

"It's okay, I guess it's that old man Wang Fu who is scolding me." Chen Qian was clear in his heart. If he were in Wang Fu's current situation, let alone scolding, he might be looking for someone to prick the villain. All relieved.While speaking, he raised his eyes, and just wanted to praise his son for being sensible, and knew that he felt sorry for him as a father, but unexpectedly, he followed Chen Xu's gaze and saw the little maid, and even if he understood what was going on, Angry eyebrows flew up: "You you you! I thought you were more sensible, I know how many intestines you have in your stomach! Don't try to cause trouble for me today!" It was at the door, afraid that someone would come Seeing that he was losing face, otherwise he would have simply picked up his ears, and would have kicked him long ago.

"Oh, daddy, I'm not crazy, I'll just take a look!" Chen Xu said aggrievedly, he had never seen the little girl at the door.Looking at her appearance and temperament, she is much better than many young ladies. Then, everyone has a love of beauty, so there is nothing wrong with him looking at it, isn't it?

The girl's steps were light and her speed was not slow, but she didn't seem rushed.At this moment, he also came up and saluted Chen Qian generously: "Master Chen, my young master is from Qin Zhizhou. The young master has been coughing for the past few days. He has to drink pear soup every day to feel better. Come out today." It's so early, I didn't even drink this soup, so the young master's nanny specially asked the servants to bring it over."

Qin Ban didn't want to drink that stuff for a long time, but no one in the house felt that Qin Ban should insist on drinking it.This thing moistens the lungs and relieves cough. Does it have any medicinal properties? It’s just that it’s okay to drink it for fun. Don’t worry about it. In short, there is no harm.Today, Qin Ban originally thought that he would go out early so that he could avoid this bowl of soup. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Li and Lin De discussed it, and finally sent Qiu Tao to Chen's residence.No matter what, Qin Ban's body was important.

Chen Qian heard that it was a girl from Qin Ban's family, and that it was about Qin Ban's body, so he immediately asked a servant to take someone to find Qin Ban.After Qiu Tao left, he glared at his son: "Look at you, you won't be reconciled if you don't cause trouble for a day!" If he didn't come out in time, Chen Xu might have already entangled this maid by now. , This is the person around Qin Ban, who can come to deliver soup, I am afraid it is the kind of close-fitting big maid, if he really offends, then there will be some joy.

When Qiutao came to the garden, Qin Ban had already been invited to the upper seat, and now he was drinking tea there, listening to the people talking in Hu Tianhai.

Qiu Tao's arrival didn't cause anything, everyone just took a look and saw that the person was walking towards Qin Ban, and thought that Chen Qian had asked his family to give Qin Ban some food and drink, which made sense. .It's just that when Qin Ban saw the food box in Qiu Tao's hand, his face turned green, and then he sighed helplessly.After Qiutao took out the things, it turned out as he expected, and I have to say, these people in his family really...are outside, Qin Ban didn't need them to say anything, he picked up the bowl by himself, bit by bit, Drank slowly.
