Red Mansion Cat Master

There are three large characters written on the plaque: Mouse Building!

While everyone sighed, they always felt that the name was so strange that it must have a deep meaning, so they hurriedly asked Jia Lian.

Jia Lian felt like his face was about to split open.

He hesitated and hawed for a while, unable to deal with the crowd, he hurriedly sent the boy to urge the old man to come.

As long as the sky is bright, Xuanlou will feel more sleepy.Although he has adjusted his schedule as much as possible since he became a human being, getting up early is still not his style.When the boy came to urge him, he had just cleaned up, and the food was not ready yet.Xuan Lou heard that it was urgent, so he got into the sedan chair with a plate of fish and ate it as he walked.

After getting off the sedan chair, Xuan Lou handed over the empty plate in his hand to the boy, then enthusiastically patted Jia Lian on the shoulder, wiped his hands clean, and then walked forward.

When everyone saw a handsome old man, they expected that he was the right one, and they hurriedly bowed their hands to congratulate.

Xuan Lou nodded slightly at the crowd, with only a little forced smile on the corner of his mouth.

Everyone saw that the old man was still putting on airs, and expected that he had a lot of background, let alone dare to offend him, and respected him very much.

Jia Lian really can't understand these people who follow the wind, where are the people who just pressed him about the origin of his name?Why don't you talk anymore?

Suddenly there was a gust of wind.

Jia Lian sniffled, feeling the smell of fish lingering around him.

"Cui, I'm here in such a hurry, what's the matter?" Xuanlou was full of food and drink, a little sleepy, looking at Jia Lian with tired eyes.

Jia Lian came back to his senses, and hurriedly said: "Master, this shop is open, you have to come to sit here. It's just that the name is wrong?"

Xuan Lou raised his hand and carefully looked at the three large characters on the plaque. It was magnificent and appetizing, very good, very good!

"Shouldn't the shop be named after one's favorite?" Xuanlou asked Jia Lian in turn.

Jia Lian nodded.

"My lord, I just like mice—lou!" Xuan Lou took a look at Jia Lian, walked straight into the room with his hands behind his back, and sat down in the head seat.

"Master, what the hell is your mouse building? Deer, in other words, do you really plan to do business?" Jia Lian still didn't believe it.How could the master arrange the shop so dishonestly for business.

Xuan Loubai glanced at Jia Lian, feeling that this kid had a bad attitude and his skin was a little tight.Forget it, let's spare him this time for the sake of his meritorious service. "Come on, write a notice!"

Xuanlou summoned the accountant, raised his chin and tilted his legs, pondering a few words: "It can cure skin and skin diseases, and the effect will be immediate. The starting price is 3 taels."

"3 taels?" Jia Lian exclaimed, staring at Xuanlou with wide eyes.My lord, why don't you go and rob!

Seeing Jia Lian's expression, Xuan Lou squinted his eyes arrogantly, and added: "If the treatment doesn't work, I will get back 1 taels of silver."

"1 taels?" Jia Lian exclaimed again, her heart in her throat.Earlier, the old man was just joking around and writing those words to fool people, so why did he add a sentence of losing money later, "This is not good, old man, if you really do this, you will lose all the wealth of the Rong Mansion gone."

The accountant paused and looked up at the father and son: "Master, should you write it or not?"

"Write!"

"Do not write!"

The father and son said in unison.

Seeing Jia Lian resisting him several times, Xuanlou couldn't bear it anymore, his eyes were full of murderous looks, and he beckoned Jia Lian to come over.

Jia Lian leaned forward, and was about to gently dissuade him, when suddenly he felt a gust of wind sweeping past, and the left side of his neck felt a burning pain.Jia Lian touched his neck, and then looked at his hands, which were a little bright red.

"master?"

"What did my master tell you? I said Dong is Dong, who told you to make up your own mind." Xuanlou's voice trembled, and he warned Jia Lian again coldly, and the second time, he would directly scratch his face.

Jia Lian was mad, he really felt wronged.Jia Lian stood there aggrievedly holding his neck for a long while, and when Xuan Lou was not paying attention, he ran away.

He doesn't care about it!

After the notice was posted, Xuanlou was so sleepy that he even yawned a few times before going straight to the inner suite to take a nap.In the main hall of the shop, apart from Zhang Zhang's account room, there are only two boys, Zong Zhu and Shi Shi, sitting in charge.

The shop was quiet, but the street was noisy.After everyone watched the notice, there was an uproar.This kind of overreaching is rare in Beijing, and because of its unique store name, more and more people are curious.The most indispensable thing in the capital is idlers, and everyone likes to gossip on weekdays, and within half a day, the "City East Mouse House" was heard all over the capital.

The name Mouse Building became popular in no time.

From high-ranking officials and dignitaries to street hooligans, everyone is curious about the mouse building.

……

Jia Lian went home angrily, intending to talk to Wang Xifeng about it.When Wang Xifeng saw that his neck was scratched, his whole face darkened and he kept sneering.

"What do you mean?" Jia Lian asked her.

"Stop pretending to me about the master's affairs, as if you are serious. The second master and Qiutong are having a good time! Tsk tsk, I'm afraid others don't know. That girl Qiutong is enough Vigorous, or is it better for the second master?" The more Wang Xifeng looked at the wound on Jia Lian's neck, the more ironic he felt.

Jia Lian thought of the wound on her neck, covered it subconsciously, and explained to Wang Xifeng: "It's not Qiutong's fault, it's the old man——"

"Forget it, even if you're looking for an excuse, find something decent." Wang Xifeng sneered.

"You," Jia Lian took a deep breath angrily, and pointed at Wang Xifeng's nose with shaking fingers, "When talking about others, think about yourself!"

Jia Lian kicked the door again and left.

Wang Xifeng was so angry that she dropped her handkerchief and sat down on the couch crying.

Ping'er hurriedly came to comfort him: "Second Grandma, the timing is not right now, so you'd better not say a few words. No matter what, let's reconcile with Second Master first."

"Reconcile? He is so eager to divorce me, how can he reconcile with me!" Wang Xifeng was hurriedly called by Mrs. Wang before she could vent her anger.

Mrs. Wang was sitting in the side hall, leaning on a half-worn plain cushion, with a calm and gloomy expression.She whispered the Buddhist scriptures in her mouth, and twisted the beads in her hands, one after another.

After Wang Xifeng entered the room, he stood obediently in the same place without saying a word.

After a while, Mrs. Wang stopped the Buddhist beads in her hand, looked up to see Wang Xifeng, and said with a smile: "I don't know when it will come. Sit down quickly!"

"I'm afraid I'll disturb my wife's sutra recitation. As a junior, I should wait a little longer." Wang Xifeng smiled and sat down beside Mrs. Wang.

"I heard that you gave Aunt Zhao two catties of bird's nest?" Mrs. Wang said calmly, as if she was talking about ordinary things, "The bird's nest I use here for a year is only four or five catties, and his aunt is a serious grandma." .”

Wang Xifeng understood that the second wife must be in a bad mood, but she couldn't confess to the elder, so she had to argue politely: "A few days ago, the servant in front of the second master spoke to the second master, saying that it was because Aunt Zhao's complexion was not good. Ask someone to weigh two catties and send it. If you do something wrong, you must first apologize to your wife, and I will send someone to get it back."

"That's unnecessary, just pay attention in the future." Mrs. Wang heard that it was Jia Zheng who caused it, and her face became more gloomy. "I don't know which boy said it?"

"Oh, I forgot to ask. I'm afraid I won't be able to find out if I ask now. I haven't even seen the second master in these two days." Wang Xifeng sued Jia Lian by the way.

When Madam Wang heard this, she asked what had happened. She heard that Qiu Tong was the one who attracted her, so she slapped the table angrily, "These vixen, who don't do serious things all day long, know how to flirt and flirt with men, they should be killed!"

"In the past, those tongue-twisters secretly called me a tigress, saying that I was harsh on the second master and couldn't tolerate the people in the house. Now it's all clear, I'm afraid I will give up my position as the main house to someone else. "Wang Xifeng said and wiped away tears.

Mrs. Wang was annoyed by Aunt Zhao, and she and Wang Xifeng shared the same hatred, so she had a good meal to comfort her.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Xifeng wiped away her tears and said to Mrs. Wang: "There is one more thing that Madam Xu doesn't know yet. The second master has been busy going in and out these two days, all of which are running errands for the elder. It’s a shop. As soon as it opened today, there was a joke, it’s funny to outsiders, but I’m shuddering when I hear it.”

"What?" Mrs. Wang looked at her.

"The Eldest Master posted a notice on the treatment of skin diseases, saying that the treatment is guaranteed. If the cure is not curable, he will pay him 1 taels of silver. Who has seen the Elder Master treat someone's disease in these years? If it is really troublesome If something happened, the 1 taels would have to come from the mansion." Wang Xifeng complained sadly.

When Mrs. Wang heard this, her eyes widened and her whole body seemed to be burning.She got up immediately and went to complain to Jiamu.
