The Ninth Master's visit.

The first time Sister Xin ʟᴇxɪ cooked at the Nian family, the green Jim fish she bought was a very homemade way of doing things, just that she didn't know the taste of the Nian congregation, and made it slightly on the sweeter side.

　　When she passed through the yard, she found dried bamboo shoots on the ground, so she picked up some and took them to wash and use them to cook meat.

　　The two handfuls of bok choy were also sautéed with a handful of dried shiitake mushrooms, and a pinch of coriander was pinched in the backyard and boiled in eggdrop soup.

　　Sister-in-law Xin was still somewhat sure of her cooking skills, it was just that for this lunchtime meal, it seemed that other than Missy, no one else's appetite was very good.

　　Packing up chopsticks, she figured out that this year, the master and Aunt Liu is the newlyweds, she is also a person, how do not know the taste, earlier than this meal into the flavor of the much more.

　　Some people taste, then there must be someone secretly sad, look at the lady that look, I am afraid to have to chew on the same wax for many months.

　　Missy bought her back, she was grateful in her heart, so naturally she followed and worried about Lu Minjun.

　　But there was no use worrying about it any more, these were not things that could be swayed by her as an underling.

　　Whether you're a prince or a commoner, this concubine, even if it's a mess, the day has to go on, not.

　　When she came in at the beginning of the year, she saw Mrs. Xin walking around while brushing the dishes, not even noticing that she had gotten close.

　　Thinking only that she was being sentimental about the past, the first of the year couldn't help but sigh.

　　Sister-in-law Xin was startled and saw the visitor, then smiled and said, "What brings you here, Eldest Miss?"

　　"Came to set up a task for you ah, someone loves to eat the dried bamboo shoots and roasted pork that you made for Mrs. Xin." Although he said he was setting up a task, New Year's Day smiled with arched eyebrows, and his two hands couldn't stay idle, picking their way around the kitchen.

　　"Love to eat ah, then I'll make more in the future." Sister-in-law Xin mistakenly thought that the person she was talking about at the beginning of the year was herself, and thought that the dried bamboo shoots drying in the courtyard would probably still be good for half a month.

　　New Year's Day picked at the dried chili peppers for a while, she had never been someone who could hide things, so she wasn't going to go around in circles with Sister Xin.

　　"Sister Xin, what do you think of my family's fifteen?"

　　This was a bit of a strange question, but Sister-in-law Xin didn't think too much about it, having been in contact with Nian XV for a morning, her impression was quite good, so she honestly said, "Quite good."

　　Gotta, these two even strike up a conversation as if they were the same, the kind that shies away from words.

　　If you still say it's not destiny, she'll have to write her name backwards on the first day of the year.

　　It seems that the rest, there is no need to ask more questions, this later ah, it is all water under the bridge.

　　Beginning of the year one asked this sentence and then walked out of the kitchen, so that Xin sister-in-law was a bit puzzled, the year family big miss this is what happened ...

　　...

　　The rain was getting heavier outside, and it was getting dark earlier than usual.

　　The first of the year closed the window and soled the fifteenth of the year to collect the books and get ready to pack up and go home.

　　The first day of the year before the corner of an umbrella to find out, this side of the store fell to customers.

　　That person wearing a green long coat, mannerisms bring a flow of wind, waist hanging half of the jade pendant, such as if the first of the year that cut to bring, just can be pieced together into a piece.

　　But the person in front of him was not Luo Ziyu, and after thinking about it, New Year's Day was afraid that Luo Ziyu had gone to gamble again.

　　I don't know how many people this poor half of the jade pendant has changed hands ...

　　When the man saw Year One staring at the jade pendant around his waist, he couldn't help but laugh, "The rumors are really not false."

　　The implication is that the first day of the year is a little rich.

　　The fifteenth year of the year is most disgusted with someone gossiping about the first day of the year, and this person has a pair of peach blossom eyes, which is not a good thing to look at.

　　That half of the jade pendant he recognized, mistakenly thought he was the Luo Ziwei who had withdrawn from the marriage and forced Liu Manniang into the Nian family.

　　"Is there something wrong with you?" Year 15's tone didn't sound very friendly.

　　"This brother is interesting, entering a coffin store, naturally you're here to buy a coffin." The man laughed, and stared at the first year of the year and raised an eyebrow, "Is it possible that you're still here to meet the Miss Nian family?"

　　Even if this person withdrew from the marriage, now he even wanted to humiliate people to their faces, Nian XV was really angry.

　　Just when he wanted to go up to argue, the first year of the year shook his head at him, and the fifteenth year of the year understood, if it was really Luo Ziwei, his own young lady was afraid that she was even more composed than he was.

　　The first year of the year led the person to the inner room, "I first year of the year is a quick person, what you have to say may as well say it clearly, since the ancient businessman heavy profit, but ..."

　　She paused, "The Ninth Master's noble guest came to his door, and I'm afraid he gave more than just this half of a jade pendant."

　　Yue Lou is a famous opera troupe in their neighboring town of Bao Wu Town, the founder's name is Qin Yue, early in the first year of the year when he was young, he had been taken by Nian Laosan to listen to a few plays, and he happened to catch the master of the troupe who sang the main show which was hard to get a ticket, so he was deeply impressed by Qin Yue.

　　If she had guessed correctly, the person coming was the current Young Ban Master of Yue Lou, known as the Ninth Master, Qin Jiu.

　　Only the old class master Qin Yue is humble and polite, but this person in front of him, is looking a little overbearing.

　　Seeing that he was recognized, Qin Jiu was not surprised and gestured for his attendant to pull out silver, but he was stopped by the first year of the year.

　　"There's no rush, it's not too late for Master Jiu to give it when it's done." To be able to make a dignified local figure rush to the door on such a rainy day, it must not be a small matter, that attendant should also be his beloved.

　　This person has eyesight, Qin Jiu eyes flashed a trace of appreciation, after all, there is a request, quickly convergence of the frivolous look, colorful: "I do not know Miss Nian has heard of our Yue Lou a corner surnamed Su?"

　　The beginning of the year a thought, this Yue Lou since Qin Jiu in charge, in recent years there have been a lot of famous characters, surnamed Su ... "Could it be that not long ago that was the Yan family's old scout, raised in the hook courtyard of the Dan actor Su Huayi?"

　　"Miss Nian is truly intelligent." That was the good thing about dealing with smart people, there was no need to say too much. Qin Jiu stood in front of a fine coffin with his hands behind his back. "This is it."

　　Nian XV didn't need to be instructed by the first day of the year, and had already picked up the account book and written it down. When the sky cleared, there were still a few more coffins to hire.

　　Only, he frowned, "This coffin, is it for the one surnamed Su?"

　　Qin Jiu waved his hand and said this, his heart flooded with bitterness, "Nonetheless, it's for a woman."

　　Nian XV stopped the pen in his hand, but I have not heard that this Yue Lou also hides a female character.

　　Qin Jiu's attendant saw that it was almost time, so he stepped forward and made a bow, "Please ask Miss Nian and Brother Fifteen to go to the Yue Building tomorrow, at that time, our young class master will explain his intentions."

　　A riddle? New Year's Day and New Year's Day 15 looked at each other, unable to guess what Qin Jiu was selling.

　　Since the opening of the Nian family coffin store, there had been no precedent for a door-to-door visit, but curiosity drove the first day of the year to oblige.

　　...

　　Early the next morning, New Year's Day and New Year's Fifteenth had their morning meal.

　　When Mrs. Xin was in her late husband's family, she lived a life of early morning and late night, and did not find it hard.

　　Liu Manniang over there but pulled a long face, can't figure out the year old three to her also to gather up what to do, but just to go to a theater troupe, as for so much publicity well.

　　Nian Laosan feigned anger and crossed Liu Manniang's eyes, he actually had his own plans.

　　To get the young master of Yue Lou to come and buy a coffin, it seems that the business of the coffin store is really getting wider and wider.

　　What does a woman like Manniang know? If this business comes to fruition, we will have to deal with these actors in the future, and it will be easy to go to a special show.

　　Thousands of instructions to send the two of them out at the beginning of the year, the Yue Lou over there had already arranged for a carriage to pick them up.

　　The wind lanterns at the entrance of the building swayed around, and the building didn't have fewer customers just because it was rainy, on the contrary, it doubled compared to the usual.

　　New Year's Day and fifteen with Qin Jiu's beloved Qin Yan hit the side door to go in, New Year's Day probe looked, only to see that the upper and lower floors are full, prepare tea to send snacks of subordinates, non-stop shuttle in the middle of it, it seems to be lively and extraordinary.

　　"Whose field is this today?" The first year of the year couldn't help but be a little curious.

　　"Su Huayi's." Qin Yan secretly sighed.

　　"He is not in Yan ..." The first year of the year the words to the mouth in time to stop, can not ask him why this surname Su to re resurface, do not continue to do the evening of the hook house. It is also too unlike some.

　　"Miss Nian, our young class master invites you to listen to a play, you'll naturally know afterward."

　　Qin Yan arranged for the two of them at the beginning of the year to be in the east room on the first floor, this side of Qin Yan just exited, over there on the stage Su Huayi has already babbled on the stage.

　　The first of the year sat in just the right position to get a good view of his demeanor and movements.

　　It is an absolutely beautiful dress, enchanting charm of the strength of the beginning of the year a girl child is also willing to bow to the wind.

　　This play is a weak willowy little lady, married soon, her husband died of illness, the in-laws think that this little lady is a husband's main, so they invited people to count, and then to set fire to the little lady.

　　It can be seen that Su Huayi is under the hard work, the husband is not there, the in-laws set fire to the body, angry and anxious sickly state acted just right, will not let people feel out of the drama.

　　"Good!" The first year of the year couldn't help but shout along with the crowd.

　　Nian XV saw her watching obsessively, also glanced at the stage, immediately disgusted to return the eyes around, good what, less than one ten thousandth of his young lady.

　　He drank a mouthful of tea, come to see the theater is quite a lot of people, I do not know how much this troupe can earn a day.

　　Nian XV's eyes darted around, suddenly glancing at a man standing behind the curtain, his hands repeating Su Huayi's movements.

　　"Look." Year 15 tugged at Year 1's sleeve.

　　"Your lady, I am watching, don't make a fuss ..." The first year of the year skimmed his hand, suddenly thought of something, and stared at the fifteenth year of the year without turning his eyes.

　　Nian XV was locked by her eyes, only to feel as if she had been ordered to not be able to move, this big watery eyes, so pretty.

　　"Fifteenth ah, does this little lady on stage remind you of what happened to Sister Xin?" The first year of the year, her vermilion lips lightly opened, and then she patted her thigh, "Don't worry, you and Sister Xin's life matter, leave it to this young lady."

　　A pot of cool water poured down the head: "..." He can say, his family miss think too much.

　　Year 15 squared his shoulders and reminded Year 1 to look at the man behind the curtain, "Look, it's the same."

　　The first year of the year looked in the direction he was pointing ʟᴇxɪ and compared it to the stage, and it was true.

　　Upon further inspection, the person behind the curtain was singing something out of his mouth as well, but he was just too far away to really hear it.

　　"Fifteen, come on, let's go backstage." The first year of the year was a hothead, pulling people and running.

　　The two had just stood up when the man behind the curtain suddenly disappeared.

　　Followed by Su Huayi on the stage, "thud" fell to the ground ...
