Chapter 52 Knowing well, so it is

Several people were kind in front of the Qin family. Most of the pedestrians who came and went stopped to watch were driven away by the idle men.

Xiang Bo's answer was not greedy for merit or mercy, and he seemed very generous and open. Qin Xiucai's expression was a little praised. He glanced at Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun and said with a smile: "I thought this uneasy girl was in trouble. Today I was really surprised. Qin was a little disobedient, but he was slow to take you all. Please go to the humble house to sit."

"What is a humble house? Why do I don't understand this scholar's words?" Zhou Qingyun muttered in Zhu Da's ear. Scholars use words with particular words, and occasionally allusions pop up. Zhu Da is fine, but Zhou Qingyun is a little more troublesome.

Before Zhu Da answered, he saw Qin Xiucai telling him: "Shi Liu, go to the Fu'an Old Store and ask for a good banquet to come over. Xiao Wang, go inside and open the door, and call Sister Cheng to come and make tea and serve guests. You can pack your room later."

The people who called him the name were all around the idle men. After hearing this, they nodded and agreed and ran to work hard. The strong man in charge looked a little embarrassed and leaned forward and said, "Mr. Qin, the master has given me some instructions. Now the matter is over. These people are strangers. It is better to be careful. It is better to arrange to go to the inn to have a good hospitality and wait..."

Qin Xiucai's face suddenly subsided and said in a solemn voice: "This guy is over fifty years old. These two young men are twelve or thirteen years old. They work hard to send Qin Qin back. They are my benefactors of my Qin family. If you can't even enter my Qin family, that's a joke. I'll take care of anything. Don't worry."

After being scolded by him, the handsome man who looked not simple dared not speak anymore, but just bowed to signal. At this time, the gate of the courtyard was opened by the little king. Qin Qin ran in cheerfully. Qin Xiucai looked at his daughter's back, shook his head in a doting way, and smiled and said to the three uncles: "You are so negligent, please!"

The scholars of poor families are poor and have no confidence and have a status. The scholars of rich families can only see the wealth and honor. They are not what he has studied, but what he has at home. These two types can be judged. However, Qin Xiucai's every move is powerful, without any poverty and sourness. If you look closely, this power is a bit solemn.

Zhu Da can barely describe this feeling, but Xiang Bo can feel it but can't understand it. Everyone feels something is wrong. In advance, he thought it was a scholar from an ordinary family. Later, when he saw Qin Qin's strange elf, he felt that this scholar might be free and unrestrained, with a bit of a famous character, but it is not the case when he saw it today. This power is similar to the official power, but this kind of majesty has very little contact in those years, and he has never had it in these years. Zhu Da is not very accurate. However, the unquestionable confidence in his words and behaviors, the respectful and obedient from the hearts of the people around him, all prove that this is not right is not an illusion.

Of course, the men and idle men around him were not even able to get along with Siwen. Qin Xiucai came out of the salt bank and took these people as a matter of course. This was not what the scholars did. There is no need to say that these are not right.

After entering the Qin family, it was already sunset in the sky. When Zhu Da entered the Qin family's courtyard, he observed it very carefully. This was a two-entry courtyard with neat regulations. It could be seen from the light of light that it was not damaged. The doors, windows, walls, steps and trails were well maintained. There were a few wintersweets in the flower pond, and other flowers and plants, but there were no dead branches and leaves. There was also a large jar in the yard. When passing by, Zhu Da looked at it and saw that the water was 70% full. This was to be used for fire fighting.

If Qin Qin didn't say anything, the Qin family should have only father and daughter. It is almost impossible for an adult and a child to take care of the yards so clean and neatly. If you want to do this, you may have to have a few special servants who serve them. This is not something that a scholar from an ordinary family can do.

After entering the house, although Qin Xiucai smiled and said, "I have been worried about my daughter these days, and the house is a little messy and I laugh...", in fact, there was no mess in the house. Several lights had been lit, illuminating the big main hall very brightly, and the furniture was not very new, but there was no feeling of cheap and poorness when I looked.

From outside to inside, the Qin father and daughter were wearing half-old clothes with patches, but apart from this, only one thing was revealed everywhere, that is, it was quite profound, which was only reflected by generations.

Qin Xiucai is not an ordinary scholar, and the Qin family is not an ordinary citizen, but I am afraid it is not a person who is responsible. Zhu Da came to this conclusion, but since he came, he would be at ease. In order to thank him, the other party invited everyone in and treated the guests enthusiastically, so naturally there was no need to worry about danger.

In fact, Zhu Da now finds it fresh and interesting, and is extremely curious. At this moment, he suddenly feels that this time he has to come back not only to be self-reliant, not only to live, but also to feel the fun and excitement of life, such as the Qin Xiucai who is different from the predictions in front of him.

From entering Zheng Family and then coming to Qin Family House, Zhu Da finally felt that in the Ming Dynasty, the house regulations, dressing, and speaking and behavior here were all "antique". Baibao Village was too poor and too thin, which made him unable to form a clear understanding, and now he has it.

As soon as she sat down, the "Sister Cheng" came. She was a middle-aged woman in her thirties. She was dressed neatly and neatly, and she was cautious in her advance and retreat. She soon served tea and made tea. Just now, an idle man outside the door brought the snacks, which were given to Zhu Da, Zhou Qingyun and Qin Qin.

The dessert is peach crisp and fruit, nothing more than a mixture of oil, salt and sugar. Zhou Qingyun seems to be extremely delicious for such simple desserts, and Zhu Da also thinks it is extremely delicious. Now he is really short of things in his stomach and has barely solved the nutrition, but sweets are really rare and he can eat them too few times.

Qin Qin was extremely excited about going home. She was tired from rushing to walk and slept in the basket once, but at this time she was full of energy. She ran in and out of the house and ran out, and she still wanted to pull Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun to play wildly, but Xiang Bo stopped him, and Qin Xiucai ignored him and just looked at him with a smile.

"Qin was poor a few years ago, and the people around him could not stand to remarry. His mother was in poor health. Qin took her to the old age. I am a scholar and I have many errands. I don't know how to take care of my children. I spoiled this way and caused this disaster. If I hadn't been kind-hearted, I wouldn't know what a miserable situation would be. Qin thanked me again." After saying this, Qin Xiucai stood up and bowed again.

Xiang Bo was a little impatient when he gave courtesy several times, but he still waved his hand and said, "It's good that the person is sent back. It's already dark. The old man and his two nephews still have to find a place to live. It's better to say goodbye first."

"Wouldn't this make people laugh at Qin? Brother Xiang sit down..." Speaking of this, Qin Xiucai patted his forehead and said again: "From the meeting, I'm busy and panicked, but I forgot to ask Brother Xiang's name, Qin Chuan, whose courtesy name is Mosheng."

Qin Chuan's name sounded familiar. Zhu Da coughed and communicating his name was a very solemn etiquette. Xiang Bo suppressed his temper and clasped his fists and replied: "The old man's surname is Xiang, his name is Yue. Yue is the Yue that Yue."

From entering the house to now, Zhu Da can feel that Qin Chuan is not just grateful. This scholar seems to be controlling the rhythm, letting everyone relax first, and then doing something at the right time. It should be a question. Zhu Da was not so keen to discover it. But after joining the company for those years, he has mastered the experience and skills he exchanged after training and exchanged. The situation in front of him is exactly in line with it.

However, after hearing the name "Xiang Yue", Qin Xiucai was stunned. From the meeting to the present, he was calm and composed. It seemed that this answer made him confused, but the time for this loss of composure was very short, and his subsequent performance was not as polite as before. He looked at Xiang Bo very directly, and his playful smile became stronger and stronger.

He was polite and polite just now, but now his attitude is a bit rude. Although Xiang Bo doesn't care, his brows also frowned.

"Xiang Yue, fifty-three years old, from Baibao Village, has no wife or children. You joined the army during the Hongzhi period, returned to your hometown in the 13th year of Zhengde, and then took over the salt industry to this day, right?" Qin Xiucai suddenly said this.

Hearing these words, Xiang Bo stopped his movements and stood up suddenly, looking at Qin Xiucai with astonishment. This action was too sudden. A small piece of peach pastry in Zhou Qingyun's hand almost fell off. Zhu Da didn't care. Qin Xiucai suddenly said that Xiang Bo's resume must have some reasons that everyone had not expected, but it was definitely not dangerous to look at the other party's attitude.

However, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun didn’t know the details of the experience of “joining the army in the year of Hongzhi and returning to their hometown in the 13th year of Zhengde”, and Xiang Bo never mentioned it. Where did Qin Xiucai know?

Seeing Xiang Bo's reaction, Qin Xiucai's smile even stronger and said leisurely: "Five days ago, you killed a thief by the Xiami River and asked him where the thief's nest was located, right?"

This is a secret matter that can only be known within the private salt organization, but unexpectedly it was revealed by a scholar who met by chance.

"How do you know this?" Xiang Bo asked. He was completely shocked now. Zhou Qingyun, who was sitting on the side, was swiftly swallowing the snacks, but wanted to touch the weapon. But at this time, the bow and arrow were placed outside, and when he was about to get up, he was pressed by Zhu Da. He shook his head and showed no need to panic. There was no reason to lie in the scene in front of him.

Qin Xiucai laughed out loud, waved his hand and said, "It's my daughter tied up by the bandit soldier. You killed the bandits and saved her, right?"

This question is more secret than reporting to the private salt organization just now. Only Zhu Da and the three masters and apprentices and the girl Qin Qin knew about it. But since they came in, the communication between their father and daughter was in front of the three of them, and they didn't say this at all. How did Qin Xiucai know? Not only Xiang Bo was shocked, but Zhou Qingyun was stunned.
