son, stop

At the dawn of the morning, the sun shines between the courtyards, and the dewdrops on the branches and leaves reflect the glittering shimmer.

Zuo Lingquan sat cross-legged on the tea couch all night when he heard noises outside the window.

In the unfurnished courtyard, there are some green weeds, and the little bird dumplings squatting on the steps, twittering with the sparrows on the wall; , but also lost a whole circle.

A clothesline was pulled up in the courtyard, and Tang Jingxun was cooling her clothes beside her. Her white tofu-like face was facing the sun, and she was humming market tunes while putting up the clothes. From the side, she looked like a well-managed housekeeper Xiaojiabiyu.

Zuo Lingquan was relieved when he saw Tang Jingxun coming out of last night's blow, he walked to the front and looked at the wooden basin, but saw that Jiang Yi's clothes had been washed, and he praised:

"Sister Tang is really diligent, getting up so early to wash clothes."

Tang Jingxuan put on her clothes and regained her former cheerfulness, jokingly said:

"I open a shop every day and wake up before dawn. I've long been used to it. You think you're the same as you nobles, you can get up after sunbathing. By the way, this is the princess' house, and I don't want to give money. , I'm sorry to live here all the time, I'll go to Linhefang to see it later, if there are still houses that haven't been burnt down, I'll go back and live there."

Tang Jingxuan holds the family business of his father's generation and has more than ten shops in Linhefang, but after a big fire yesterday, I am afraid that there are not many shops that can be lived in.

Zuo Lingquan greeted Jiang Yi yesterday, shook his head and said, "It's enough to live here. How can Her Royal Highness care about such a trivial matter? It's not too late to go back when Linhefang is cleaned up."

Tang Jing smiled, pondered a little, and said:

"Xiao Zuo, I think the princess is very nice, but she has a bit of a temper, and she seems to have a problem with me. I spanked my sister's butt yesterday, and it still hurts a little. I guess she thinks I'm a vixen. You have to be good." Explain to the princess."

Zuo Lingquan spread his hands slightly: "I explained it earlier. The princess has such a personality and looks fierce, but in fact, the knife has a tofu heart. Didn't you come to see you last night? I won't embarrass you."

Tang Jing's mind was active, seeing Jiang Yi's absence, she whispered:

"The princess doesn't know me well, so she thought I had something to do with you, so she came to check on my safety. This is the same as the back house of a big family. Even if the big wife hates the master, she favors the concubine. If something happens to the concubine, You can't ignore it, otherwise the master will get angry and you won't be able to please yourself."

Tang Jingxuan was talking, feeling that this analogy was not quite right, and quickly said:

"Sister, I'll make an analogy, Xiao Zuo, don't take it seriously. Anyway, the princess is really kind to you, so you can't afford to lose her highness."

"Understood. The princess doesn't have so many thoughts, so don't think about it blindly, Sister Tang."

"Can I stop thinking about it, you don't know that the slap is harsh, it's like a big woman giving a concubine a lesson, I've never been spanked when I grow up."

The two chatted for a while. After Tang Jingxun packed up her dresses, she and Zuo Lingquan left the house and went to the nearby Linhefang.

Yesterday, a fire came and went quickly. Most of the houses in Linhefang and its surroundings were damaged, but there were no major casualties.The people in the streets and alleys were packing their things back and forth, and all the shops were not open, but ships were entering and leaving the wharf as usual.

Tang Jingxuan walked all the way to the riverside street, looked up at the blackened walls of the wine shop, and a bit of distress appeared on her face:

"It was just repaired at the end of the year. It's a good time. Silver and white flowers, I knew it would not be repaired."

She wanted to open the door, but she never wanted to touch it, and the door fell into the hall of the wine shop.

Zuo Lingquan took a look and saw that there was a smoky atmosphere in the restaurant, there was a hole in the roof, and the ground was full of water stains, a mess.

"Ugh"

Tang Jingxun has lived here for many years. Even if she lives alone, she has feelings. She wants to go in and have a look, but she is worried that the house will collapse. In the end, she just stood at the door and watched for a while, then turned to look at the situation of the neighbors.

Zuo Lingquan only knew Tang Jing well, and he didn't go over to greet him, but just stood on the side street and waited.Before Tang Jingxun finished talking to the neighbors, the sound of horseshoes and wheels, as well as a familiar voice, came from the side street:

"Oh, isn't this the shop of Lingquan's concubine, why did it burn like this?"

Zuo Lingquan turned his head to look, but saw a carriage with a wooden sign of Zuo, coming from one end of the street.Zuo Yunting dressed as a knight with a sword on his back, sat outside the carriage and looked at the liquor store; Lao Lu held a horse whip and drove beside him.

From the appearance point of view, the two are preparing to travel far.Zuo Lingquan was slightly puzzled, and he walked up to him and waved:

"Elder Lu, fifth brother, who are you?"

"Oh, Ling Quan!"

Zuo Yunting smiled when he heard the sound, jumped down from the carriage and ran to the front, and said a little excitedly:

"You're here right now, and I'm just about to find you. Lao Lu has been in the capital enough, and wants to follow the team from Qihuang Valley and go to the frightening terrace. I'll take him there, don't you want to cultivate immortals? Let's go. Let's go and take you to open your eyes."

Zuo Lingquan looked surprised and held Zuo Yunting:

"It's thousands of miles to go to Jingtai Terrace, let alone a few months, fifth brother, you are afraid."

Zuo Yunting waved his hand: "Sigh, young people can't read thousands of books, and they have to travel thousands of miles. When I stay in the capital, I will just eat and wait to die. It's better to go out for a stroll. I have said hello to my family, and my father can't say no to me. , agreed, and gave me money, do you want to go together?"

Seeing this, Zuo Lingquan didn't stop him: "Fifth brother just said hello, I have to wait for the princess to get married, and I can't go if I want to go." He turned to look at Lao Lu on the carriage: " Why is Mr. Lu suddenly leaving? I saw you in Xihuang Valley yesterday, but I didn't have time to say hello."

Old Lu was still dressed as he used to be, but Mu's moody complexion was a little better than before. He leaned on the carriage and smiled hoarsely:

"While you can still move, go out for a walk more; Xihuanggu sent people to the Jing Terrace, just followed him, and the road is more stable."

Zuo Lingquan thought about it for a while and thought so too.He came to him and raised his hand in salute;

"Linhefang just had an accident, so I can't send it too far. Please forgive me. If you have a chance in the future, come to Dadan to see more. Although this place is a little smaller than the outside, the beautiful scenery is not much worse than the outside."

"If there is a chance, it will definitely come."

Old Lu nodded slightly, but the world is too big, and Zuo Lingquan will definitely leave in the future. No one can say whether we will meet again after we say goodbye.

Lao Lu hesitated for a while, and said, "I am old and talk a lot. Before I leave, I will still be an elder and warn me: Cultivating one way, cultivating the mind is the top, and the strength is the bottom; your kid was there yesterday. Xihuang Valley is eye-opening, and there will definitely be great prospects in the future, but the original heart has to be guarded. The flowery world outside is more exciting than you think, and the blessings and dangers are also difficult to comprehend. , once you take one wrong step, your life will be over."

Zuo Lingquan nodded and smiled: "Junior will definitely keep it in mind."

"Also, there are great people out there who are well-versed in the world. You need to be a little bit more in dealing with the world. You want to understand the truth of the easy way."

"Elder Lu, don't worry, the younger generation has always acted prudently."

I bother!

Old Lu opened his mouth, knowing that it was useless to say these things, so he didn't say more, raised his horsewhip and slapped his horse's back lightly, and walked to the other side of the street: "See you by fate."

Zuo Lingquan bowed his hands in a salute, then went to the city gate with Zuo Yunting, and said goodbye to the carefree fifth brother.

Standing on the side of the street, Tang Jingshen also found the carriage and bowed slightly.

Old Lu turned his head and glanced at Tang Jingshen, his deep eyes were the same as when he first arrived at Linhefang, with a bit of 'unpredictable' doubts.

However, there are too many people and things that cannot be seen through in the world, and Lao Lu is not a real god. After a little glance, he continued to embark on the last long journey of the rest of his life
