Chapter 55
"No tears without the coffin!"

Xu Zizhu's maid spat beside her.

Xu Zizhu smiled lightly, and her gesture of stroking tea became more elegant and leisurely.

In the time for a cup of tea, Mr. Jiang, the shopkeeper of Banfenghe, was invited up.

The old man rubbed his hands, and stepped in with a smile, "Hey, what kind of wind is blowing today, why does this old man have the face to step into this resplendent Xiangmanlou?"

Shopkeeper Liu showed a malicious sneer on Bai Pang's face, "There are not enough tea cups in the building, so I'll just sit down for a while. As for the purpose of inviting you here, I think the maid has already told you just now."

This means that you don't even want to invite the other party to drink tea.

Mr. Jiang sat down next to shopkeeper Liu, took a sip of his untouched tea, and took a few sips carelessly, "Look at how polite my nephew is, I use your tea just for the sake of it, you mustn't do it differently." I'm being polite!"

Shopkeeper Liu twitched his forehead, suppressed his displeasure, and said coldly: "Then I don't know the so-called 'Xiao Lanchun', did my brother bring it?"

"That's natural."

Mr. Jiang took out a small ceramic jar from his sleeve and waved to Su Jiu.

Su Jiuying held the small jar, glanced at Xu Zizhu, and stood up on the incense altar, cleansing his hands calmly to burn incense.

There was a lot of noise in the hall, and everyone started to argue fiercely.

Some people say that Su Jiu should be kicked out of the stage soon. The incense table has always been used by the nobles to try burning the newly made incense, so how can it be used by a charlatan!

Some people also began to suspect that Su Jiu was telling the truth, and it would not be too late to ask her to tell the truth after burning incense.

Just when there was commotion in all directions, a sonorous zither sound suddenly pierced the tall building!

The building was instantly quiet.

Everyone looked around, only to see a young man in a sky-blue straight gown, with delicate features and bright cinnabar color, sitting on the incense table and stroking the Guqin.

A beam of sunlight pours down from the roof and falls leisurely on the fragrance table.

The juvenile's jade fingers are slender, and they are as white as transparent.

Mo Qing's skirt is embroidered with orchids, her thin lips are lightly pursed, her nose is like a peak, and her curled and dark eyelashes are drooping, covering the tenderness and affection in Tao Hua's eyes.

The fragrance of books all over his body is strong, and people can't help but praise Mo Shangren as jade, a son who is unparalleled in the world.

And the boy sitting beside him burning incense, wearing a thin robe with narrow sleeves and collar that is as green as grass, the spring sun sprinkled on his cheeks, reflecting his skin like suet glaze.

Comb the corners of the two hanging green ribbons, the small bright red lips are full like pearls, a pair of dark deer eyes are pure and clear, and the two dimples on the cheeks are as sweet as nectar.

At first glance,
Not like a brat,
It's like a sweet, waxy, soft and cute little girl.

"Crack" a sound,

The tea cup in Xu Zizhu's hand fell on the small Buddha table.

The maid hurriedly took out the embroidered handkerchief and wiped away the water stains on the Buddhist table.

Xu Zizhu covered her face with her sleeves to cover up her gaffe.

It was only now that she recognized that this book boy was clearly that little servant girl of Young Master Xiao!
That night, Young Master Xiao even gave her the embroidered shoes he won as a gift!

A sour jealousy filled her heart, she clenched her wide sleeves tightly, her eyes gleamed fiercely, wishing she could kill Su Jiu on the spot!

However, within a short time, there was a faint fragrance of orchids coming out from the incense table.

Only then did Xu Zizhu come back to her senses, secretly thinking that something is wrong!
The elegant scholars around, with complicated emotions, already cast strange eyes on her.
