I saw that the study room was very spacious, with carved windows all around, and bright light. There was a large writing desk at the back window, which should be used for daily writing. The study room was fully equipped with all the study utensils. There were several bookshelves, stacked vertically, and the collection of books was huge. Quite a few.
When Xie Fu saw the books, he felt like he was seeing a treasure. He immediately walked to the bookshelf and flipped through them.
As soon as he read the book, Xie Fu was immediately immersed in it, unaware of the passage of time.
It wasn't until he finished a book that Xie Fu returned to reality from the book, and Tantai Wenwang had not returned yet.
This study has a lot of books and elegant furnishings. I don't know why Xie Fu always feels that it lacks some literary style. After scanning around, he immediately realized, oh, it turns out that there is a lack of calligraphy and painting.
Thinking about Tantai Wenwang asking him on the road if he could compose poetry, I suddenly felt funny. Could it be that Tantai Wenwang couldn't even write? Thinking of this, he walked to the desk and looked at Tantai What does Wen Wang usually do?
There were no traces of learning to write. Instead, he saw a silk handkerchief placed out of place on the desk. The silk handkerchief was embroidered with colorful peony patterns. Xie Fu picked it up out of curiosity, and a pleasant fragrance immediately came from it.
A roar suddenly came: "Put down your dirty hands."
When Tantai Wen heard that someone was coming, he quickly rushed to Xie Fu, reached out and snatched the silk handkerchief from his hand, and asked coldly: "Who told you to touch my things?"
Xie Fu was stunned for a moment and said sorry.
Tantai Wenwang glared at Xie Fu, quickly checked to see if the silk handkerchief was dirty, and said coldly: "Do you know that this silk handkerchief is unique?"
Xie Fu said with a smile: "There are so many silk spades like this, why can't I see anything unique about them?"
"You know nothing like a country bumpkin. This silk handkerchief belongs to Peony. I paid a high price to buy it. It is my treasure. Do you understand?"
Xie Fu nodded, it was understood, but it was just a silk handkerchief, so it wasn't that big of a deal.
Tantai Wenwang continued: "Look at the word peony embroidered here."
It felt a bit like showing off to Xie Fu, but Tantai Wenwang didn't know that he was showing off to the wrong person. For Xie Fu, when he was in Yangzhou, it was easy for him to collect baskets of such things, so there was no need to buy them at high prices.
When Tantai Wen saw Xie Fu's unmoved look, he suddenly realized with a sigh, "I'm afraid you don't even know who Mu Dan is."
Xie Fu satisfied Tantai Wenwang's self-esteem and asked: "Who is Peony?"
Tantai Wenwang said proudly: "Peony is the flower song of Qinlou." Then he said to Fu Xie: "You probably don't even know the flower song."
Xie Fu smiled. He lives in a brothel, so how could he not know what Huayin is? There is a flower list in the brothel. Talent, appearance and skills are used as the judging criteria. The first place is the oiran, who is also the number one female, and the second place is The third place is Huayin, who is also the second female student, the fourth and fifth place is Hua Fu, who is also the female Jieyuan, and the sixth to tenth place is Hua Yan, who is also the female bachelor.
A flower girl's silk handkerchief was regarded as a treasure by Tantai Wenwang. Fu Xie didn't know what to say, so he smiled and said: "Sir, I think you value this silk handkerchief very much. You and Lady Peony There must be a close relationship.”
"This..." Mr. Tantai looked embarrassed and paused for a moment, but he didn't even have the chance to get close to Lady Peony. As a flower chanter, the person she met must have certain talents, so that day he wanted to win over Peony. The lady admired it and bought this silk handkerchief at a high price. Unfortunately, she never got the chance to be alone with Lady Peony, and could only smell the fragrance and miss her.
"Come, sit down, and I'll talk to you about the rules of entering a brothel. Don't make people laugh and disgrace me..."
After the two had dinner, night fell quickly.
For most people, they fall asleep an hour after nightfall.
Finally, the wait was almost over, and the two sneaked out of the study. As soon as they walked out of the yard, a sharp voice came out that startled them, "Sir, it's so late, where are you going?"
But it was Butler Kong who came out of the darkness.
Butler Kong saw that the young master was acting strangely today and saw that the light in the study room was always on. He felt that this was not the young master's style. The young master usually hated staying in the study room, so he kept watching secretly.
As expected, the young master planned to sneak out in the middle of the night.
Tantai Wenwang pointed at Xie Fu and said: "Xie Fu said that he had never visited the night view of Suzhou City, so he asked me to take him there."
Xie Fu looked confused, and the blame was put on his head, and he said: "Yes, I will ask the young master to take me out for a walk."
Butler Kong ignored Fu Xie and said solemnly to Tantai Wenwang: "Sir, you want to visit a brothel again. The lady has said that you are not allowed to go to that kind of place again!"
When Tantai Wen saw that he was exposed, his face turned ugly, and he suddenly turned away, "She is a young lady, am I not a young master? Do you, a slave, care about what I do?"
Steward Kong said, neither arrogant nor humble, "I will naturally listen to the young master's words, but if he goes against the young lady's words, I will only recognize the young lady's words."
Tantai Wenwang probably felt that he had lost face, and said coldly: "I tell you the truth, I am going to visit a brothel right now. If you dare to stop me and give it a try, you will suffer the consequences in the future."
Butler Kong said solemnly: "Anyway, I will never let the young master step out of the mansion."
"Bold slave!" Tantai Wenwang said, raising his hand to strike.
Seeing this, Xie Fu walked forward quickly and grabbed Tantai Wenwang's raised hand with quick eyes and quick hands, "Master, you are a gentle man, don't do anything."
Tantai Wenwang was furious at this time. He barked at anyone he saw and cursed at Fu Xie: "How dare you meddle in my business? Who are you? You are just a pretty boy. You really treat yourself like a green onion."
Xie Fu winked at Butler Kong and signaled him to leave quickly.
Butler Kong didn't know whether he didn't understand Xie Fu's meaning or it was for other reasons, "Sir, even if you hit me, I will risk my life to take care of you. This is the young lady's order."
Tantai Wenwang sneered and said, "You think I really don't dare to hit you."
Butler Kong said seriously: "Master, if you say that, I will be offended." Then he shouted loudly: "Come here, tie up the master first and let him reflect on it!"
"Old man, how dare you!"
Tantai Wenwang pointed at Butler Kong angrily, and rushed over. Before he could reach Butler Kong, several servants came out from behind Butler Kong and blocked him in front of him.
Tantai Wenwang roared: "You dare to be rude and lawless."
Several servants said humbly: "Master, we are also following orders, don't make it difficult for us."
"It's so hard!" Tantai Wenwang pointed at a few people, "I already remember you guys. From now on, you can't even think about getting good results."
Several servants looked timid when they heard this. Tantai Wenwang saw this and yelled: "Don't get out of the way!"
