Xiu'er was present, so it was difficult to say these words originally, but now that there are code words, it can be expressed in front of others.
Xiu'er, who was changing clothes at the side, was naturally confused: "Miss, where is the swelling?"
Xie Fu said lovingly: "Let my husband give me a kiss to reduce the swelling."
Gu Xianting's ears turned slightly red: "Sir, please stop teasing me, I've already given birth to a white deer."
Xie Fu said softly: "My husband is thirsty."
Gu Xianting's face turned even redder, and she concealed her instructions: "Xiu'er, I'm thirsty, please give me a glass of water."
Xie Fu smiled and said: "No, there is no way to quench my thirst. The only way to quench my thirst is the White Deer."
Xiu'er said: "What on earth are you talking about? Why can't I understand a word of it?"
Gu Xianting smiled secretly in his heart, "If you understand, then that's okay. Even in front of your husband, I feel embarrassed to say these words. In the past, I only dared to hide them in my heart."
While eating, Xie Fu asked: "Xianting, do you have any private money?"
Gu Xianting said bluntly: "Yes."
"How many are there?"
"As much as my husband wants, Immortal Court will have it." You know, she also has a share in the entire Jiangnan East Road grain business."
Xie Fu smiled flatteringly: "Then lend me some."
Gu Xianting asked: "Is one hundred taels enough?"
Xie Fu laughed dumbly: "Let's forget it."
Gu Xianting immediately knew that Xie Fu was too young: "One thousand taels?"
Xie Fun said, one thousand taels is no longer a small amount, but if you want to take your brothers and sisters to Xuandanzhai, I'm afraid everyone can only wear clothes.
Gu Xianting understood: "Ten thousand taels?"
Xie Fu nodded: "Absolutely. Do you have 10,000 taels from Xianting?"
Gu Xianting opened the wardrobe and took out a piece of paper similar to a pawn ticket from a brocade box.
Xie Fu was confused, and Gu Xianting explained: "This is the depository note from the counter, which is exactly 10,000 taels. My husband, you can take this deposit receipt to Tonghui Tianxia Cabinet and withdraw 10,000 taels of silver."
Xie Fu then remembered that Tantai Heqing had told him that he wanted to open a counter shop, so the counter shop for depositing and borrowing silver coins had already been opened, and he said with a smile: "It's better for you to be in Xianting."
Gu Xianting asked curiously: "What, is it that Sister He Qing refuses to lend it to you?"
Xie Fu explained the cause and effect. After Gu Xianting listened, he took the deposit slip back and said, "Then I can't lend it to you."
Xie Fu was anxious: "Xianting, why are you like this?"
Gu Xianting put the deposited tickets back into the brocade box and said: "Mr., don't be anxious, listen to me slowly."
"Based on my understanding of Sister He Qing, she will definitely handle this for you. If you are embarrassed, she will be embarrassed. My husband, please think carefully, has Sister He Qing ever done anything to embarrass you?"
Xie Fu thought about it for a while, and He Qing defended him: "It really hasn't happened before."
"That's right, so I can't get involved in this matter. To get involved would be to slap her in the face, which would definitely make her very angry."
"real?"
"If you're not afraid that you won't be able to sleep with her for ten days and a half, then just don't believe it."
Xie Fu smiled and said, "I'm not afraid either. I can go to your bed and pamper you all by myself."
Gu Xianting smiled brightly: "I won't even let you in through the door."
Xie Fu knew that Gu Xianting was very principled and would not do it if he said no.
…
In the hall, Cui Sanfei and Xie Fu drank tea and chatted, but from time to time they looked out at the sun, wondering why they hadn't come to report it yet.
Although they were walking separately, he always sent people to follow the nine ladies' itineraries and report them in time.
Someone came late last night to report that nine ladies were staying in Huangdai Town, not far from Suzhou City, so they could resist Suzhou City early the next morning.
Therefore, he had already arranged for reception at the agreed inn, so that the nine ladies could wash away their dust and dress neatly before visiting Tantai Mansion.
There should be news by this time. Could it be that there was some accident during this short journey that delayed the time?
Xie Fu smiled and said, "Sanfei, why do I see how worried you are?"
Cui Sanfei smiled apologetically: "No, this tea is so delicious, you can't help but savor it after you take it into your mouth."
At this time, a servant came into the hall and reported: "Sir, we have received you, right at the door of the house."
Xie Fu stood up and said with a smile: "Sanfei, come with me to the door to pick up my brothers and sisters."
Cui Sanfei looked puzzled.
It turned out that Xie Fu arranged for people to wait at the Suzhou city gate early in the morning to receive them, and directly brought them to Tantai Mansion.
He, as an uncle, is more attentive than Cui Sanfei, as a husband.
After hearing the explanation, Cui Sanfei exclaimed: "Brother, you really put this little brother to shame."
At the door, Cui Sanfei's nine wives have already got off the carriage, all of them are like flowers and jade, forming a beautiful scenery. However, they are tired from the journey and their faces are slightly tired.
When the nine girls saw Xie Fu, they immediately saluted Xie Fu under the leadership of his wife Cui Wang: "Uncle."
This battle was like concubines coming together to pay their respects. Xie Fu laughed and said, "Brothers and sisters, there is no need to be polite. Please come and talk in the hall."
Mrs. Cui looked at Fu Xie's left and right, but there was no lady around, so she glanced at Cui Sanfei gently.
Cui Sanfei naturally understood the look in his wife's eyes, because he had already ordered him to introduce his eldest brother's wife to them when the time came. He also told them not to be rude to others, and said calmly: "Let's talk after we enter the house."
Xie Fu also knew in his heart that Cui Sanfei was his sworn brother, and his wives and concubines were his brothers and sisters. According to etiquette, they had to come out together to greet him, so as not to be rude to others.
He snorted coldly in his heart, you are really giving me face, I will make you look good later, he said with a smile: "He Qing is busy, I don't know the guests suddenly arrived, I will call her over later and introduce her to some younger brothers and sisters."
As soon as I entered the mansion, I saw Tantai Heqing coming in a hurry with a group of servants. Xie Fu was happy in his heart. You know him.
Tantai Heqing came closer and looked at the nine beautiful ladies in front of him with a smile. From the appearance and temperament alone, he knew that they were all ladies from famous families, not divas and prostitutes. Looking at the nine elegant and decent clothes, and the headgear.
It's not overly luxurious, but the low-keyness makes her feel better.
She has been traveling for so many years and has dealt with so many ladies and ladies. She can see through this person's character at a glance.
I just feel that these nine ladies in front of me are much more pleasing to the eye than Cui Sanfei, a big fat pig.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When the two parties met for the first time, they naturally needed someone to introduce them. Xie Fu smiled and said: "He Qing, let me introduce you. These are the nine ladies of Sanfei."
That's right, but the term "nine ladies" is a bit strange.
Tantai Heqing said to Cui Sanfei: "Uncle, you are so lucky. All nine sisters are dignified and beautiful."
Cui Sanfei smiled and said: "Sister-in-law Qing, let me introduce to you, this is the boss Wang Yuwu, this is the second child Chen Linglong... the seventh child Wen Renyue..."
Cui Sanfei introduced and met Tantai Heqing one by one. He smiled and said hello. At the same time, he ordered the maidservant to bring water and clean the face with a water-purifying cloth to wipe away the dust.
Then he said: "I heard my husband tell me yesterday that the nine sisters are coming today, so I have already arranged the courtyard where they will stay. The nine sisters are tired from the journey, so it is better to stay here and take a bath first and then chat in the hall.
talk."
Seeing that Tantai Heqing was so attentive and considerate, Fu Xie felt happy and had a smile on his face.
Cui Wangshi looked at Cui Sanfei gently, Cui Sanfei nodded secretly, Cui Wangshi smiled and said: "Guests are at their own leisure, it is all arranged by my sister."
Tantai Heqing held Wang Yuwu's hand affectionately: "Sister Wang, I will take you here and there."
Wang Yuwo said, "Sister, wait a moment, it's my first time to visit you. I have a small gift ready for you."
Xie Fu interjected: "Sanfei and I are brothers. You are my younger brother and sister-in-law, and you are my brother. Visiting our house is like visiting our house, so there is no need to prepare gifts."
"Knowing that uncle is interested, he sent someone to greet him at the gate of the city early in the morning. To express his gratitude, I hope that uncle will accept it."
Cui Sanfei said: "Brother, this is what your brothers and sisters want, just accept it."
"Okay, okay, it's heartless not to accept the gift, so I will accept it. But I have to say it first, accept this gift, and we will treat it as a family from now on, and don't go through such red tape when we meet." Xie Fu also said half of what he said.
Tantai crane listens affectionately.
Wang Yuwo ordered his entourage to bring the gifts in.
The first gift was a copybook of "Lanting Preface" by Wang Yishao. Xie Fu was shocked when he saw it and was shocked on the spot.
This is a copy, right? As the eldest sibling, how could you use a copy to fool me? It’s an authentic copy?
Tantai Heqing was also secretly frightened. This kind of gesture was a sign of looking down upon others.
Wang Yuwo smiled and said: "I know that my uncle is known as a talented scholar, so I have decided on this calligraphy and painting. I wonder if my uncle likes the gifts prepared by my brothers and sisters?"
Cui Sanfei's fat face twitched, and his flesh ached. This "Lanting Preface" is the dowry of his eldest wife Wang Yuwo. I call you a gift. I didn't ask you to take out this treasure as a gift. At this moment, you actually like your eldest brother.
Can refuse.
Xie Fu smiled bitterly: "Of course I like it, but..."
Wang Yuwo interrupted: "As long as uncle likes it."
But they were sincere and there was no reluctance at all. Tantai Heqing saw everything in his eyes and was able to give him "Lanting Preface" as a gift. This friendship was bottomless.
Xie Fu smiled and said: "Okay, okay."
When Cui Sanfei heard this, his heart ached. Forget it, it was his eldest brother who knew exactly what to do.
Immediately afterwards, the entourage presented a sword box. The sword box naturally contained the sword, but seeing the simplicity of the sword box, one knew that the sharp edge of the sword inside was definitely extraordinary.
Wang Yuwo smiled and said: "Uncle, this is the gift prepared by the second brother for you."
Chen Linglong said: "As the saying goes, a sword is given to a hero. My uncle has become a hero. Whether he likes it or not, he has to accept it."
"Thank you, second brother and sister, take it, take it."
When the girls saw that Xie Fu said he would accept it, but had no intention of opening it, they looked at each other strangely. Chen Linglong pursed her lips, seeming a little unhappy.
Tantai Heqing winked, and a maid came forward to take the sword box with both hands.
The Cui family attendant holding the sword box reminded: "This sword is a bit heavy."
But the maid replied: "I can carry two buckets of water at a time."
The moment he took it, his hands fell heavily, and the sword box fell to the ground and bounced open. The edge of the sword inside the box showed a faint cold light, and it sounded like Yin Yin was singing in the sunlight.
Xie Fu's eyes lit up when he saw it, showing surprise. He walked closer and picked up the sword. He looked at the sword with an unbelievable expression on his face: "Kunwu!"
Chen Linglong saw Fu Xie's face showing surprise and surprise, and said happily: "Uncle is really a hero, he knows the sword. Yes, this sword is Kunwu."
Xie Fu showed doubts when he heard this. In the battle with Taishang in Lei Yuanzong that day, Kunwu's sword was reduced to ashes. He buried the sword with only its scabbard and built a tomb for the sword.
"Could it be that there are two Kunwu in the world?"
Chen Linglong said in surprise: "Uncle, how do you know that there are indeed two Kunwu in the world, one female and one male. The female sword is lighter and is used by women, while the male sword is heavier and is used by men."
Xie Fu weighed it and said, "Then this must be a male sword."
At his level of cultivation, he no longer pays much attention to magical weapons, but pays more attention to emotions. The Kunwu Sword is his first sword to enter the martial arts, and it accompanies him through the dangers of life and death.
Holding Kunwu's hand again at this moment, I feel a joyful feeling of returning to my old self.
"Uncle, do you like it?"
"I like it very much, second brother and sister. To tell you the truth, my first sword was Kunwu, but it was reduced to ashes in a battle. I deeply regret it."
Chen Linglong smiled and said: "It seems that Kunwu and uncle are destined for this life."
Xie Fu wiped the edge of his sword with his hand and murmured: "I will protect you from now on."
Chen Linglong smiled and said: "The sword is for body protection, but uncle said the opposite."
Xie Fu smiled and did not explain much, but little did he know that these words contained his regrets and hopes.
Other siblings sent gifts one after another, all of which were ancient items used by literati and refined scholars. They were not nameless and had provenance. Such items were classified as famous items and ancient treasures.
The seventh brother and sister heard that the gift from Renyue was a red horse: "Uncle, how can you not have a good horse if you already have a sword? Although this rouge horse is still underage, it will definitely be a peerless horse in the future."
Seeing this rouge pony, Xie Fu had an idea in his mind: "Is there really no horse evil? I really don't know horses!"
"I really like the gifts given by my brothers and sisters, and my uncle appreciates them."
This time, Tantai Heqing looked at these nine girls with admiration and said with a smile: "Okay, accept the gift. The sun is so hot. Sister Wang will come and go with me." As he said this, he held Wang Yuwu's hand affectionately.
hand.
"Sorry for bothering you, sister."
Xie Fu looked at the background of everyone leaving and was very happy to see that the two families were as close as one family.
Cui Sanfei asked: "Brother, did you go out of your way to say good things about me in front of your beloved sister-in-law?"
"Why do you ask that?"
"Brother, I am a prostitute in the officialdom. I can't tell whether a person likes or dislikes me."
"Yes, I told He Qing that you have a bad face and have done a lot of good deeds. Let her not just take it at face value."
Cui Sanfei said, a little embarrassed: "Brother, please tell my sister-in-law Qing that this secret should not be publicized, otherwise my reputation as the number one dude in Chang'an will be lost."
Tantai Heqing led the way and asked about Xie Fu's stay in Cui Mansion in Chang'an.
The seventh lady heard about Ren Yue and told her about the misunderstanding with Xie Fu. Her words were filled with admiration for this uncle's magnanimity.
The eldest lady said that a sword is given to a hero, and my uncle is a hero. Whether he likes it or not, he has to accept it."
"Thank you, second brother and sister, take it, take it."
When the girls saw that Xie Fu said he would accept it, but had no intention of opening it, they looked at each other strangely. Chen Linglong pursed her lips, seeming a little unhappy.
Tantai Heqing winked, and a maid came forward to take the sword box with both hands.
The Cui family attendant holding the sword box reminded: "This sword is a bit heavy."
But the maid replied: "I can carry two buckets of water at a time."
The moment he took it, his hands fell heavily, and the sword box fell to the ground and bounced open. The edge of the sword inside the box showed a faint cold light, and it sounded like Yin Yin was singing in the sunlight.
