insane

Everyone returned to Jinling, Master Liu didn't say a few words all the way, he was always frowning, and looked a little old.Liu Mu knew that Master Liu was very annoyed by this matter, so he was careful all the way, for fear of being whipped again when he returned home.

"Brother!" As soon as Liu Mu got off the carriage, Liu Ye ran over and hugged Liu Mu, "Brother, you are back. Don't mention how boring the house is when you are away."

Liu Mu smiled and said, "Ye'er is getting more and more beautiful! Now that big brother is back, I will play with you every day from now on!"

The second lady pulled Liu Ye back, "What does the girl's family look like! She is so big, and she still hugs and hugs your elder brother!" I thought Liu Ye is now a big girl, who knows This notorious willow can do anything worse than a beast.

Seeing Xiangyun, Liu Mu hurried over, "Sister Xiangyun!"

Xiangyun said reproachfully, "Master asked you to study, but why didn't you forget to cause trouble. It's only been a year, and the academy kicked you out."

Liu Mu said with a playful smile, "Sister Xiangyun, you called me when we first met. I thought you would say that you miss me very much."

Xiangyun said, "You cause trouble everywhere, I don't bother to think about you."

During the dinner, Liu Ye kept talking endlessly, as if she wanted to say everything she had said this year.

Liu Lin walked into the dining room, Master Liu said, "It's been so long since dinner, why did you come here?"

Liu Lin said respectfully, "I just forgot the time when I was studying."

The second lady said, "Our Lin'er is becoming more and more sensible. We spend so much time studying and forgetting to eat and sleep, that we will definitely be admitted to the top prize in the future!"

Liu Ye whispered, "Second Brother's mind is full of reading, and he's going to be stupid if he reads."

The second lady glared at Liu Ye.

Liu Mu said, "I haven't seen you for a year, and Lin'er has grown taller again. I must have grown a lot in reading."

The second wife hurriedly said, "Hey, these small academies in Jinling are not as good as the imperial academies like Huguo Temple. Your second brother is not as lucky as you, and he has the opportunity to meet a good teacher."

Liu Mu said, "The Huguo Temple Academy is nothing special. It is far away from home, and the conditions are average. I don't think the master is much better than our master in Jinling."

The second wife said in a strange way, "Mu'er has only been away for a year and came back. It's okay, so that the master will not always miss you when you are far away from home. The master is afraid that you study too hard, and he is thinking about adding some clothes for the season change. I'm also afraid that you won't be able to eat well and sleep well. This is all right, now that I'm back, I'm under your father's nose every day, so the master can rest assured."

Liu Mu said, "Father, I know I've gotten into trouble again this time. It's just that I'm really not good at studying. If there is another good opportunity like this, I'd better let my second brother go."

Master Liu said, "I also see that your kid is not destined to study. You don't have to go to the academy anymore."

"Really?"

"Well. Everyone is tired all the way. When you come back, you should rest for two days. After two days, you will come to our shop to learn how to do business with the shopkeepers. If you can't read well, it doesn't mean that you can't do business well. Our Liu family has been doing business for generations. Not everyone who is in charge of the family is a Dahongru. The sooner you understand the business matters, the sooner you can take over the business of the Liu family."

Liu Ye smiled and said, "Brother has such a bright mind, he must be a good material for doing business!"

Liu Lin kept his head down while eating, and never said a word.

The second lady snorted disdainfully.

In the evening, Liu Mu heard the boy say that someone was looking for him outside the door.

"Xia Tong, Zhang Fu! Why are you two here!"

"We heard that you're back, so we're thinking of serving you wine to wash away the dust."

Liu Mu said, "I also want to have a good drink with you, but it's a pity that my father has been watching me closely these days. After a few days when my father relaxes his vigilance, I will definitely go to Chunfeng Pavilion with you to have a good time." Play." Speaking of Chunfengge Liumu, he thought of Ziyan again, "I don't know what happened to Ziyan."

"Miss Ziyan, she..." Before Xia Tong could finish speaking, Zhang Fu hurriedly interrupted, "Of course Ziyan is still the same. She misses you very much after you left for a year."

Seeing that Xia Tong was still talking, Zhang Fu hurriedly took out a few banknotes and said, "This is the rent of several shops in the south of the city for this year. The original pawn shop has now opened a silk and satin shop, and the rice shop has been leased to One who owns a tea plantation."

Liu Mu stuffed the silver ticket into his sleeves, and the three of them said a few more words, because they were afraid of being caught by Mr. Liu, they left early.

Liu Mu went back to the study and secretly hid the two bank notes in the book, and put the book on the top shelf of the bookshelf. Suddenly, someone behind him said, "You look like a thief." Liu Mu fell off the stool in shock. down.Standing up and patting the ashes off his body, he looked shocked, "Sister Xiangyun, you scared me to death!"

Xiangyun laughed, "But what did you do wrong?"

Liu Mu whispered, "There's nothing wrong with it. It's the rent collected by Chengnan Shop this year. Xia Tong and Zhang Fu just brought it to me. Don't let that shrew know about it. Otherwise, you must tell my father." Liu Mu said so intently, but he didn't realize that Yu Wanran was standing outside the door and listened to all these words.

Xiangyun said, "Anyway, the young mistress is also your wife, and you're screaming shrews one after another, how ugly it is."

"Huh! If you don't call her a shrew, what do you call her a lady? It sounds disgusting, so disgusting!"

Xiangyun said, "Didn't you make the young mistress angry this year in Huguo Temple?"

"I made her angry? Hmph! When I mentioned Huguo Temple, I became even angrier! That shrew bullied me everywhere, got bruises around her eyes six times, nosebleeds twice, and little punches and kicks are commonplace. But The most hateful thing is that she still flirts with that little boy!"

"flirt……?"

Liu Mu frowned and said, "Yeah, you didn't see how good her attitude was when she was with that little boy! Adulterer □, there must be □!"

Xiangyun said, "Young Mistress is also the lady of a rich family, so she won't be so careless in doing things. Besides, Young Mistress is the most talented woman in our Jinling, and ordinary men can't catch her eyes."

Liu Mu said, "That's because you didn't see that little boy! He's taller than me, his eyebrows are thicker than mine, his eyes are brighter than mine, and his face is sharp-edged. He's not to mention handsome, and he has read a lot of books. We have a lot to talk about together.”

Xiangyun laughed, "So you're jealous?"

"Jealous?" Liu Mu hurriedly said, "I'm jealous of that shrew? Are you kidding me! I can't wait to peel her skin, squeeze her tendons, and dismember her body!"

Early the next morning, Liu Mu walked out of the room to have breakfast, and happened to see Yu Wanran.

Liu Mu looked arrogant, with his head raised slightly, his neck straightened, and he squinted at Yu Wanran, "Hmph! Vixen!"

Qiu Shuang said angrily, "Miss! Look at that Wu..." Before Qiu Shuang finished speaking, Dong Lu hurriedly pushed her and shook her head, "You're talking nonsense again, have you forgotten the lesson from last time?"

Qiu Shuang stomped her feet vigorously, "But I just can't stand that scoundrel bullying our young lady."

The two of them walked to the gate of the other courtyard by coincidence, and Yu Wanran said, "I heard that two of my husband's friends came last night."

"How did you know?"

"I saw it by accident. It seems to be the two young masters surnamed Xia and Zhang."

"That's right. Can't my brother, whom I haven't seen for a long time, talk to me?" Liu Mu murmured inwardly. How could this shrew see her? She wouldn't have seen Zhang Fu give me the bank note!Liu Mu said, "You shrew is really annoying, the old bustard is reincarnated, and wants to get involved in everything."

Qiu Shuang said, "You actually said that about my young lady!"

Liu Mu raised his eyebrows and said provocatively, "What's the matter, the mouth is mine, I can say whatever I want! The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked! Not only is your lady a shrew, you are also a shrew! And you are a shrew who can't get married!" "

"Miss! Look at him, he actually said that I'm a shrew who can't get married!"

Yu Wanran smiled and said, "The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, Xianggong is right this time."

"I... I'm too lazy to argue with a shrew like you!" Liu Mu walked away, thinking, this shrew is obviously mocking me for being uneducated.

The two sat at the dining table, Yu Wanran brought some vegetables for Liu Mu, Liu Mu looked at Yu Wanran vigilantly, this shrew suddenly treats me so well, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd!Could it be that this shrew wants to take the initiative to make peace with me?Liu Mu just wanted to pretend that his clothes were superior.I only heard Yu Wanran say, "Sir, the shops in the south of the city..."

Liu Mu's face turned pale with fright, and he secretly shouted that it's bad, it's bad, this shrew must know about the bank notes!He hurriedly said, "Ah, you mean the newly opened silk and satin shop in the south of the city. If you like it, we will go and have a look someday."

Yu Wanran smiled and said, "I'm talking about..."

Liu Mu hastily interrupted again, "It's still a tea house? But our Liu family's tea house is the number one in Jinling, and even the tea leaves that are tributed to the palace come from our Liu family's tea garden. How can ordinary people's tea houses compare with ours? I'm afraid you won't like the tea Wanran there."

Seeing that Yu Wanran was still talking, Liu Mu hurriedly picked up some vegetables and put them in Yu Wanran's bowl, "My lady eats vegetables. After all, the food in the temple is not good. You have only been in Huguo Temple for a year, and you have lost a lot of weight. Let me eat at night." The cook cooks a few more good dishes, plus two black-bone chickens, plus ginseng to make up for you."

Master Liu said, "Mu'er, you just returned to Jinling. The tea and satin houses in the south of the city were opened almost half a year ago. How did you know?"

"Ah... this... ah, they told me to add fuel and vinegar."

"Oh." Master Liu didn't have any doubts, just nodded.

Yu Wanran smiled and said, "Master knows that what I'm talking about isn't just a tea and satin factory."

Liu Mu hastily picked up some more vegetables for Yu Wanran, "Didn't you say that you don't eat or sleep? Let's go back to the room and talk slowly after dinner. If you want to buy silk, our family has the best silk and satin shop in Jinling." , is hundreds of times better than the time-honored brand of Xu Gong’s family. When it comes to tea tasting, our Liuji Tea House is also the largest in Jinling. But when it comes to wine and food, it’s really Zhang Fu’s Zhangji Restaurant. Okay. How about I will accompany you for a longer walk in a while, pick some silk and tea that the lady likes and come back, and when you are tired, go to Zhangji Restaurant to ask for a table of good wine and food. When you come back, you just pass by the goods store. Get some of the best bird's nests for you as a snack!"

Master Liu looked at the two of them and smiled in relief.Although the book on going to Huguo Temple was not completed, it seems that the relationship between the young couple has improved a lot.

Liu Ye sighed, the man really wanted to change, after just over a year, the eldest brother forgot about the inseparable love he had at the beginning, and even promised to elope with Miss Ziyan.
