Master Yao asked a few more questions about the waiter, and An Zhixian's expression changed. He stood up and opened the door to see an inkstone standing at the door. There was no one else outside, so he closed the door again and returned to the house.
"The grand master asked, do you think there is anything wrong with the newly recruited man?"
Master Yao: "Everyone is very clever."
An Zhixian: "It's really smart. Whenever the old guys come, the new guys always rush to deliver refreshments and usually clean the second floor. The old guys just think that the three of them want to show their faces in front of them. , over time, I got used to it.”
Taishi Yao said with a deep meaning: "You can open the door to investigate. I think the cleverness of these new guys should be more than that."
An Zhixian said humbly: "Grand Master, although this junior is not talented, he has been doing business for many years, so he still has some ability in judging people. It's just that there is a mixed bag in Kyoto, and this junior has no one to rely on. Some things are better not to know than to know."
After speaking, he said with a hint of solemnity: "Grand Master, don't worry, as long as this junior is still here, you and the elders can come here to talk with peace of mind at any time."
Master Yao: "I know your heart is good. Since you understand the benefits of not knowing, don't bother to explore the person behind it, so as not to get burned. Just be careful and treat it as if you don't know."
After seeing off Master Yao, Ling Wu followed Zhu Qing into the house. He saw An Zhixian standing by the window, watching the carriage below go away. Ling Wu said softly:
"Master, the Grand Master is here to tell you about your new assistant?"
An Zhixian closed the window and nodded: "The Grand Master also knows where the person is from, and he came here specifically to ask me to pretend not to know."
Zhu Qing: "Master asked me to deliberately quote the inkstone book, and noticed Lu Chun's Kung Fu skills, so that Taishi Yao could know that Hou Yehou was an spy. Now that everything is progressing as you arranged, why does Master still seem to have something on his mind?"
An Zhixian: "I just feel strange. Why did the grand master go there in person even when it's snowing just because he asked the inkstone to convey a message..."
Zhu Qing: "I think some things are better said face to face."
An Zhixian didn't think about it and simply put it aside:
"Ling Wu, you must be careful when you come in and out, and don't show yourself in front of Yanshu and Taishi to avoid being recognized. Please tell Feng Xiaoran to stay at the pawn shop and don't run towards me recently."
While they were talking, the waiter knocked on the door and said that Lin Yanqing was here.
An Zhixian went downstairs to welcome the people into the house. After sitting down, he smiled and said:
"It's snowing from the sky, and I thought that the master would not come again until the next year."
Lin Yanqing took the warm hand from Mrs. Tang and smiled lovingly:
"I haven't been here for a few days. I feel empty. Come and have a cup of tea."
An Zhixian methodically brewed hot tea and placed it next to Lin Yanqing's hand.
Lin Yanqing sent Lin Shun out, and there were only two people left in the room. After talking about other things, Lin Yanqing suddenly whispered:
"Remember when I asked you before, you were never married or engaged?"
An Zhixian held the cup and joked: "Indeed not. With the Master's tone, could it be that he is trying to be a matchmaker?"
Lin Yanqing: "That's true."
An Zhixian's smile paused for a moment, then resumed:
"Not only is there a daughter of a certain family, but she can help Taifu to act as a matchmaker?"
Lin Yanqing: "It's from my family."
An Zhixian's smile completely stopped, that bright figure appeared in his mind, and his heart beat uncontrollably like thunder.
I was shocked, happy, and confused...
Did she ask Taifu to come? She wants to marry me? How could she suddenly want to marry me?
