Shen Guangming glanced at the cat, sat up from the ground, wiped his face, and stared at the young man standing in front of him.

The young man looked down at him: "Are you not injured? What is this?"

Shen Guangming: "Minced meat soup with persimmon."

He deeply regretted it when he said it: When Shen Qing borrowed other people's kitchen to make this soup, she shouldn't have put minced meat.Although the taste of this stuff is really good, it greatly spoiled his good deeds.

"Try it?" Shen Guangming took out a half-filled small bottle from his arms and put it on the ground, "Please eat, you're welcome."

Seeing the young man's expression suddenly sank, he felt very happy.

The Tang family couldn't get in, so he went to the Liu family, the Zhang family, and the Sima family.There are quite a few rich families in Qing'an City, and the three brothers and sisters heard clearly at the tea stand when they entered the city that day.This trick has no effect on the Tang family, and it is impossible to have no effect on all the female relatives of rich families.

He jumped up from the ground, bowed deeply to salute the young man, and saluted Mrs. Tang who was looking at him.

"It's a little trick, it doesn't mean much, Madam forgive me."

The cat stopped eating after licking it for a while, and looked up at Shen Guangming.

Shen Guangming wanted to leave as soon as possible, although Mrs. Tang looked like a kind person, it would be no fun if she had bad intentions and sent herself to the official.

So he lifted his legs and ran.

But before he reached the corner, the young man caught up from behind and quickly pinched his wrist.

"My mother asked you." Amidst Shen Guangming's screams, the young man said, "Do you want to work and earn money? We need a flower grower in our house."

Shen Guangming was ecstatic in his heart, and immediately nodded frantically: "Aww...Think about it!"

Shen Guangming called himself Chen Zhengyi, and quickly changed his clothes after receiving them, and he was completely reborn.There was a big "Tang" character on the back of the clothes, and the fabric was not very good, much worse than the one he wore when he went to Wang's cloth shop.Shen Guangming was quite disgusted, but fortunately, the clothes had no peculiar smell and were considered clean.

He decided to establish a good relationship with the housekeeper first.

So he said to the housekeeper who gave him the clothes: "Your wife is really kind."

The butler looked at him: "There are many poorer people than you. Our wife didn't let you in because of this."

Shen Guangming wondered, "Why?"

The housekeeper: "After all, you look like a human being. Our wife likes good-looking people, and they are good-looking and pitiful, so she is kind."

Shen Guangming: "..."

Housekeeper: "You don't have to be afraid. My wife won't do anything to you, but she likes everyone in the house to be neat and beautiful. We look good and she is in a good mood. People in a good mood are beautiful."

Shen Guangming suddenly felt that Mrs. Tang was terrible.

The butler briefly explained the rules to him.After Shen Guangming wrote it down, the housekeeper asked him to go to the garden to loosen the soil and water first.

The garden of the Tang family is not small, Mrs. Tang named it Chunhui Courtyard, and Shen Guangming found the old flower worker after walking half a circle in the yard.

Shen Guangming has no interest in flowers and plants, but both Shen Qing and Shen Zhengyi like them very much.On weekdays at home, he either helps his younger sister's peony to catch insects, or prunes his younger brother's magnolia tree, so he does his job well.

It's just that after working like this for a few days, he didn't know any of the masters of the Tang Mansion.That day I only saw Mrs. Tang, not even the brave looking young man.When Shen Guangming and the maids got together to kowtow sunflower seeds, they heard them mention the young man with admiration.

The young man is the only son of the Tang family, named Tang Ou. He is a native of Jianghu who has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and has traveled outside for quite a long time.

Shen Guangming thought he couldn't see it.But the man did run fast, and he did have great strength.

The spring rain is soft and greasy, and the vegetation in the courtyard is more and more prosperous.

This day when Tang Ou walked into Chunhui Courtyard, he saw Shen Guangming kneeling in the grass with his buttocks up from afar.

"Little liar." Tang Ou said, "What are you doing?"

Hearing his voice, Shen Guangming threw a big red-footed centipede that he caught out.

Tang Ou flicked the centipede away and landed in front of Shen Guangming.He lowered his head and saw that the centipede had been bounced to death by Tang Ou's strength, and the centipede was soft and motionless on the ground.

Shen Guangming quickly raised his head and showed a dog-legged smile: "Young master is very skillful! This centipede is so vile, the little one was bitten by him a few times, and he couldn't kill him no matter what, the young master is the best."

Tang Ou snorted and waved to him: "Stop pretending. Come here and ask you something."

Shen Guangming hurriedly wiped his hands and followed.

Tang Ou took him to the pavilion and asked him to sit down and talk.

Shen Guangming squatted for a day, his waist and legs were sore, so he sat down without saying a word.There were also cold tea and simple snacks on the stone table in the pavilion. Shen Guangming was eating while waiting for Tang Ou to speak.

He knew that Tang Ou knew what he was, so he didn't bother to pretend, so he crossed his legs and said, "What do you want to ask me?"

Tang Ou: "Do you know the Wang's cloth shop in the city?"

Shen Guangming: "... I know."

Wang's cloth shop searched for a few days, but couldn't find any clues about Feitianjin, so he had to ask around with the drawing; although a few people answered that they had seen such a young man before, where did they go and who I don't know.Seeing that Mr. Tang's birthday was getting closer and closer, the cloth shop couldn't hold on anymore, so he quietly went into the mansion to find Mrs. Tang.

Mrs. Tang was very surprised, so she called Tang Ou over and asked him to find a way to find it.

Tang Ou thought about it all night, but there was no breakthrough, so he came to Shen Guangming, a ready-made liar, to learn from him.

Shen Guangming nodded while listening, his eyes looked left and right, pretending to be thinking.

"What do you think, master?" he asked.

"That liar is very cunning. He knows that Wang's cloth shop is my mother's property, so he deliberately calls us family members to confuse the guys." Tang Ou said, "There has been no such incident in Qing'an City in the past few years, and everything that has happened has been banned by the government. So, the thief should not be a commoner in Qing'an City. But he is so familiar with the relationship between my family and Wang's cloth shop, he must have spent a lot of time in the city, or he has accomplices in the city."

"Oh..." Shen Guangming said, "Maybe the thief just entered the city and is not familiar with the relationship between your two families. He just heard people say that the Tang family is the richest, and he just happened to see that the Wang family's cloth shop is very prosperous." , so decided to use the name of a rich family in the city to deceive people?"

Tang Ou: "This...is too coincidental. Besides, the thief knew what the most valuable thing in the shop is, and he must have inquired for a long time. The shopkeeper said that there were girls who dressed as maids to ask, but I think there should be more than one or two. Maybe it's a gang."

Shen Guangming: "Maybe it's because the young girl has a unique vision, and the thief is so clever that he can understand the situation in the shop after only one inquiry?"

Tang Ou sighed and looked at him: "What you said was too coincidental, no, no, no. The thief also called himself Shen Guangming, and deliberately left a fake name to confuse his attention. He is so cunning and meticulous, how can he just inquire once?"

The last mung bean cake on the plate was also eaten by Shen Guangming.He wiped his mouth and said earnestly: "What is true is false, and false is true. This makes sense. Maybe that liar left his real name on purpose, just to disturb your thinking."

"... makes sense." Tang Ou said suddenly.

Shen Guangming was startled and realized that he had said too much.At this time Tang Ou continued: "This guy seems to be an elegant thief. He stole the glass box and Feitian brocade, but left the glass box behind."

"Feitianjin?" Shen Guangming grabbed another plate of walnut crisps to eat, "What is Feitianjin?"

Tang Ou explained to him: Feitian brocade is extremely difficult to weave, not only the number of warp and weft far exceeds that of ordinary brocade, but also another mystery - the whole piece of Feitian brocade will show different patterns under the light and different angles, but the appearance It is no different from common precious fabrics.

"This time Feitian Jinshang embroidered the entire "Tao Te Ching", which was handwritten by Lu Qingchuan, a great calligrapher, especially for my father." Tang Ou said, "The cost of embellishment and production alone is nearly 1000 taels of silver."

The half-bitten walnut cake fell from Shen Guangming's mouth on the table.

"...how much?" Shen Guangming asked in shock, "1000 taels?!"

"At least 1000 taels." Tang Ou said indifferently, "Although the glazed box is also exquisite, it is only a hundred taels at most, which cannot be compared with Feitian brocade. The liar can see the preciousness of Feitian brocade. I am really surprised by his accurate vision." ...What's the matter with you? Why is your face dead? "

"It's okay, it's okay..." Shen Guangming struggled to get out of the resentment towards his vision, "So, Shen Guangming, a liar, should be a little old, otherwise he wouldn't be able to see the preciousness of this flying brocade. People with such vision can't Many, older people, those who have been to Qing'an City, and knowledgeable, it should not be difficult to find."

Tang Ou tapped his fingers on the stone table a few times.Shen Guangming's gaze, which was originally on the walnut cake, was drawn involuntarily.He thought this man's fingers were beautiful, stiff like those of martial arts practitioners, and he was a little envious.

"Is this possible?" Tang Ou said, "The liar actually doesn't know how to look at the Feitian brocade. He took the glass box and the Feitian brocade away, but he threw it away on the way because the glass box was too heavy. Said Maybe he thought the box was worth more than the cloth, and regretted it for a long time."

Shen Guangming: "..."

Tang Ou: "Is it possible?"

Nervous Shen Guangming: "What do you think?"

There was silence in the pavilion.Tang Ou frowned and thought about it, then nodded slowly: "It's unlikely."

Shen Guangming quickly consolidated his thoughts: "That is that."

Tang Ou seemed to let go of his doubts, pulled the remaining two pieces of walnut crisps in front of him, and began to eat seriously.Shen Guangming didn't know whether he really came to ask himself these things, or to test, a thin layer of sweat silently broke out behind his back.

After sitting for a while, the cold tea bottomed out, and there were only crumbs left in the dim sum.Tang Ou said to take him to see Mrs. Tang's favorite peony, and let him take care of it carefully.Just after getting off the pavilion, someone ran over from afar to report: "Master Xinbao has arrived and is waiting for the young master."

Tang Ou had no choice but to say goodbye to Shen Guangming.Before leaving, he stopped suddenly, turned around and asked, "Do you know Lord Simburg?"

"Who in the world doesn't know?" Shen Guangming said, "I heard that he set fire to the Xinjiabao fire ten years ago. He killed his father and seized the castle. He is a villain."

"These rumors are not true. Do you want to see him?" Tang Ou said, "He has excellent medical skills, maybe he can help you look at the meridians."

Shen Guangming was taken aback.

Tang Ou looked at his hands: "When I arrested you outside the mansion that day, I found out that there is a problem with your meridians. You haven't been able to practice martial arts since you were a child, right?"
