After the rain, Yangzhou is delicate and charming. On the New Town River, the boats are rippling, and the girl's silver bell-like laughter sounds in the cabin, adding to the fun.

Lu Zheng was dressed like snow, standing on the bow of the boat. He carried his hands on his back and looked at the endless green river water, his heart was relaxed and he was in a good mood.

Lu Zheng took the girls to raft the new city river for the first time. This was the first time in recent months that Lu Zheng relaxed so much. He studied hard every day and was unable to understand the key points of the article. Lu Zheng was depressed now! Time is not waiting for me, time is like arrows.

"Third Master, it's getting late, we should go back, right?" Ying'er poked her head out of the cabin and said to Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng turned his head, saw Ying'er's delicate little face, and nodded gently: "Okay, let the boatman dock."

Ying'er blinked and said, "Third Master, are you going out again tonight? Go to the West Lake Painting Boat?"

"Uh..." Lu Zheng was embarrassed, he coughed and said, "That... Ying'er, I have something to do with my uncle tonight, so you don't have to wait for us!"

Ying'er pursed her lips, and the laughter of Si Qi and others in the cabin faded. She faintly heard Huamei's muttering voice: "What's wrong? You just look at the girl on the side of the pleasure boat. I don't know what's good about it, can you compare to Sister Ying'er?"

Lu Zheng was even more embarrassed, Ying'er's face was flushed, and her head was retracted into the cabin. Inside the cabin, she heard the sound of Huamei giggling and begging for mercy.

Lu Zheng had just breathed a sigh of relief when Ying'er's little head came out again, and she said again: "Third Master Jing has recently become obsessed with Miss Zi Yan, a Qing Gong Gu, who is a Qing Guest. Is Third Master also going to Songzhuju today?"

Lu Zheng frowned and said, "Who are you talking nonsense? Nonsense!"

"I'm not talking nonsense. These days, Mr. Qi is asking for money every day. The money seems to be picked up from the ground. I'm not stupid!" Ying'er said.

Lu Zheng couldn't let out his face, and he couldn't help but smile and said, "You are smart, but Brother Jing is in a bad situation. He owed money in Songzhuju, but he didn't dare to tell his family, "I'll just go over and take a look!"

Ying'er stared at Lu Zheng and said, "Is it really just a look?"

Lu Zheng shook his head slightly and said, "Now everyone is staring at Brother Jing on the Zhang Mansion. He is a single seedling now, but he has no successors. What should I do in the future of the big house? You have heard a lot of discussions from Tong Mansion?"

Ying'er pursed her lips and before she could speak, Si Qi poked out her little head and said:

"Who dares to discuss it? Second grandma can cut people's tongue!"

Lu Zheng said angrily: "You know how to talk too much! Okay, the boat has already docked, Ying'er, there has been no fresh food in the kitchen these days. You can take Siqi and a few to Chunfenglou for a meal of sauce elbow and roasted flower duck. Then, I will pay ten taels of silver to give to Liu Daopa of Qingxuguan as the incense silver for this month. Go!"

Ying'er nodded, and Si Qi on the side said again: "Third Master, even if you have money, why should you spend this money to raise a Taoist priest who eats people and doesn't spit bones? Then Daopo Liu is covered in yin energy. When I see it, I feel my scalp numb. I don't know what's good about it. I can collect so much incense silver in one month."

Lu Zheng said: "Little girl, if you talk nonsense, it's not just the second grandma who can cut her tongue, but I will do it, so will the third master!"

Ying'er said on the side: "Damn girl, the third master naturally has his own reason for doing things, you just talk too much."

Si Qi pursed his lips and said, "No wonder Sister Ying'er can be so pleased and follows the master everywhere. It's the master who is supposed to go to the pleasure boat, let alone sending the unjust money to Qingxu Temple? Isn't it? Are you guys listening to me?"

Huamei and Xiaozhu chuckled, Xiaozhu said, "We only heard a girl's jealous smell, which was smelled of vinegar!"

"Are you going to be killed? You two girls!" Si Qi blushed and chased Xiaozhu in shame. The three girls laughed and were so lively.

The group got off the boat, Lu Zheng and Qi Biao called the carriage, and the two of them slowly headed straight to the Slender West Lake.

The "Songzhuju" in the West Lake is just an inconspicuous pleasure boat. It is much smaller than the giant pleasure boats such as "Tingyu Pavilion" where the big courtesans are stationed. The place where the "Songzhuju" is parked is also relatively remote, and it is parked on the shore of a pine forest by the East Lake.

Stepping on the small wooden bridge from the shore to the pleasure boat. At night, the breeze comes, the sound of pine waves, and there is no noise in the middle of the pine and bamboo, giving people an extremely quiet and elegant feeling.

Zhang Jing, the second master of Zhang Fujing, is twenty-four or five years old, and is a talented person. Judging from his appearance, his nose is like a gallbladder, his eyes are like vague paint, his head is wearing a jewel crown, and a big butterfly red arrow sleeve suit. He looked at the qin in front of him with affection, his eyebrows and eyes are full of spring.

The woman playing the piano is also a top-notch beauty. Look at her oval face, wearing a pink gauze skirt, her slender waist is like a weak willow to support the wind, she gently strokes the strings of the piano with her slender hands, and her eyes are like peach blossoms looking around. She is really charming.

After the song was played, Zhang Jing applauded and praised: "I like the song "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" played by Yan'er. Miss Yan'er, come, come! The wine has been warm, come over and let's drink together..."

The woman Yingying stood up and smiled even more, saying, "How can Zi Yan bear the kindness of Master Jing like this? Last time, Master Jing said he wanted to redeem Zi Yan's body. Hehe, it turned out that he was just talking about playing. In a blink of an eye, it took half a month to come. It seems that there are so many pleasure boats in West Lake, and Zi Yan is not as good as those who are popular courtesans and Pu Liu's figure, so he shouldn't have thought about it!"

Zhang Jing stood up, quickly walked to Zi Yan, and said, "Yan'er, don't ridicule me. My heart is false, and the sky is thundering! I don't have many things at home, and my father is not good at it. I work hard for the family business every day, ah..."

Zhang Jing sighed softly, and felt extremely sad in his heart. He shook his head slightly and said, "Don't talk about those unhappy things anymore. Today's beautiful scenery, let's cherish the present."

Zi Yan broke away from Zhang Jing's hand and said, "I'd better not drink this wine from Master Jing. If you drink a few more glasses, I can't stay in Songzhuju! You didn't look at my mother's face today. Mom is fine, but Master Eighth is the one who has nothing to do with.

I am a weak woman. The second master promises to be happy. If you really want to support me, you have to rely on the eighth master and his mother. If you can't stay in Songzhu's residence, what else can I do? It's like this duckweed on the water, and you will have no roots and no hope in this life!"

After Zi Yan finished speaking, she lowered her head and shed tears, and finally cried out loud.

Zhang Jing was stunned for a moment, his face became ugly instantly. He shouted at the girl at the door: "Okay, the dog slave is really brave. Go and call you Hu Ba over. Dog eyes see things that are inferior to others. Today I will teach him how to be a human being."

The girl went out in shame. After a while, a thin middle-aged man wearing a dark red silk shirt ran in outside.

Looking at this man, his face was covered with flesh and fish eyes and rat whiskers, he said as soon as he entered the door, "Oh, Master Jing, where are you idle again? Could it be that Zi Yan has not served you well and has made you feel uncomfortable again?"

When Zhang Jing saw the other party, he stomped his feet hard and said, "Hu Ba, don't give me a careless look. To be honest, have you shown Yan'er's face again? Why? You are a man and come at me. What's the point of shaking your majesty at Yan'er?"

Zhang Jing was furious, and the man named Hu Ba looked slutty and said, "Look at what you said, if you really want to do it, you might as well redeem Yan'er, then everything will be cheap? Jing Er, you have everything to tell the rules these days, and our small business is not easy. Could it be that Jing Er, don't let us scold our own girl? What's the reason?"

Hu Ba smiled and didn't laugh, Zhang Jing said, "Okay, Hu Ba, I understand! You are a dog-eyed person, right, I owe you hundreds of taels of silver. But if you open your dog-eyed eyes, will I take hundreds of taels of silver seriously?

I will take the silver over and smash your face to pieces."

Hu Ba laughed and said, "Jing Er Master said this well. Jing Er Master is a hero who loves beauty. I, Hu Ba, loves silver. I really want to be killed by silver. I am happy! But Jing Er Master, you can't always just blow the wind and don't rain, right?

My family of Huba wants to eat, drink, defecate, and urinate. Yan'er raises an old lady. With her own food, clothing and food, it is not storm.

Jing Er, you are the young master. If you don’t take charge of your family, you don’t know how expensive it is. If this continues, our Songzhuju will not be able to open, and Yan'er will not be able to survive!"

Zhang Jing's face changed, and his arrogance suddenly became weaker. He waved his hand and said, "You go, go! I'll bring the silver here next time!"

"No, Second Master! Second Master finally came here once today, why should I wait for the next time? Next time, the daylily will be cold, and my family of Hu Ba cannot live a life!" Hu Ba grabbed Zhang Jing and started asking for the account directly.

Zhang Jing was so angry that his face turned pale, but he was helpless. There was a beautiful woman next to him watching, which was so embarrassing.

He softened his tone and put down his airs and said good things to Hu Ba. But today Hu Ba seemed to be a turtle who was determined to eat the weight and insisted on Zhang Jing paying the money. The scene was deadlocked. When Zhang Jing was helpless, he heard a voice suddenly coming from the room next door:

"What's the noise? It's noisy, and you won't let anyone listen to the music?"

Hu Ba hurriedly said, "Men, I'm sorry. Mr. Jing and I have a dispute over some money here. We'll leave quickly and don't bother you anymore!"

After Hu Ba said apologizing, he sneered and said, "Jing Er Master, let's go! Let's change the place and make people quarrel here, making them unhappy!"
