Holding the wine cup, Yu Jinnian turned to look at the two people.

Yu Xu was embarrassed and couldn't say a word for a long time. Min Mao pushed his back with the tip of a fan a few times, urging him to confess quickly, and then said falteringly: "They hurt me, I, I I didn’t want to go by myself, they lied to me about going to a fun place... "

He whimpered and looked up, seeing that Yu Jinnian was neither salty nor bland, and he didn't speak, so he crawled to the side instead, grabbed a piece of snow-colored clothes beside him, and cried softly: "My lord, I really don't want to go!" Yes, trust me..."

Ji Hong took half a step back and pulled the corner of his clothes out of his hand.

Min Mao slapped his ass on the stool opposite Yu Jinnian, and reached out to grab the colorful muffins on the table to eat, but Yu Jinnian slapped him on the back of his hand, reprimanding him for eating food without washing his hands, and not afraid of worms in his stomach . Min Mao grinned, took the wet towel presented by the boy, wiped it hastily, and then honestly took the chopsticks to pick it up, and said in his mouth: "Now that I think about it, I'll find someone to save me." , wasn’t it quite arrogant just now!”

Yu Jinnian rubbed his temples, took a sip of his drink, and asked, "What is it, can you explain it clearly?" He looked at Yu Xu, tapped the table with his fingertips, "Yu Xu, tell yourself. "

Yu Xu drooped his head and sobbed, as if he had been greatly wronged. Yu Jinnian had never seen this set of clothes on him, and the material was no worse than Min Mao's. Yu Jinnian just remembered, it seems that this kid said before that his clothes didn't fit and wanted to make a new one. .

Ku is Yu Jinnian's own small treasury, and now he can be regarded as having a stable income. He never asks Ji Hong for these small daily expenses. But ever since he came to Xiajing with Ji Hongsi, he spent money a little casually, so Yu Jinnian didn't ask how much he paid in and how much he paid out recently, and it was all under Qing Huan's control. Now he saw the clothes on Yu Xu's body , I suddenly remembered this.

He sized Yu Xu up and said, "What's wrong with your face, did you get hit?"

Yu Xu lowered his head and didn't look at him, he muttered and didn't know what he said, Min Mao over there had a good time, took the words, and said with a sour smile: "Isn't it? , who doesn't know who doesn't know our Second Master Yu? He is a newcomer in Dou Jin Lou."

Yu Jinnian frowned: "Doujinlou?"

Min Mao was lying on the table, still remembering that sip of cherry liqueur just now, the taste was no worse than the one in the big wine shop, when he was about to get it, the jug was pushed down by one hand: "If he doesn't say anything, you Say, otherwise don’t want to have a sip of my wine. Which Doujinlou?” He sighed, glanced at Yu Xu quietly, raised his legs and said, “Which one else is there, Doujinlou on Jiangjun Street Heck! If I hadn’t been dragged over by those young masters of the aristocratic family to play and happened to bump into me, today, your little cousin’s hand would have been chopped off for serving!”

There are two gold selling caves in Xiajing—the red building and green building in Dongsan Lane, and the Doujin Building on Jiangjun Street. The former sings and dances to promote peace, while the latter is decorated with gold and silver. They are all the same. This Doujin Building is called a chess club and a tea club to the outside world, but it is actually just a big gambling house decorated with chess and tea. It's just that once this kind of bad habit is related to the wealthy and noble families, it becomes a gambling, and the dudes play together for fun, and they never get tired of it.

General Street is said to be an old story of the previous dynasty. It is said that a certain general was entrusted to open a new mansion here after his triumphant return, hence the name General Street. No more, this Jiangjun Street has gradually declined, and it has become a gathering place for the bottomless. No matter how gorgeous the decoration is, in the final analysis, it is just something that is not up to the table. How many people live in this street, their families are ruined, their wives are separated, but they are still obsessed with their obsession.

Min Mao has no big ambitions, he plays games in the world, so naturally he has a few friends who are good at this, and they are used to hang out in Doujinlou. However, this kind of matter should not have anything to do with the Yu family. Yu Jinnian didn't allow the people in the family to get involved in these messy things. If he felt that life was boring, he had thousands of games in his stomach, and any one he took out would be enough for them to play for a month; There are many, so there are constant rewards during festivals and festivals, and everyone has a share, and there is no need to get involved in the bad luck of Doujinlou.

Yu Jinnian's heart sank, he looked down at Yu Xu and said, "Are you going to gamble? Where did you get the money from!"

Min Mao gleefully stepped aside, because it was not a big deal to watch the excitement, and he didn't feel that he was superfluous, after all, he was the one who captured Yu Xu, and now this kid can stand in front of Yu Jinnian with his whole beard and tail. It's all thanks to him, Min Mao, who has a lot of face, and can talk a few words with the manager of Doujinlou.

Yu Xu's fine clothes were wrinkled and the corners of his mouth were swollen, obviously he had suffered a lot, especially in this case, he didn't think there was anything wrong with him, seeing that his gamble was exposed, he immediately put on a miserable look , pitifully avoided the important point and said lightly: "I stayed idle and went out for a walk. Yes, it was those young masters. They said they would take me to play, so I went... I thought it was just watching chess..."

Min Mao added another sentence: "Yeah, it's just watching chess. But your betting catch is much smarter than the ladle handle on your neck!"

The ladle handle is jargon, referring to the head. Min Mao is a little dude, but he is also the eyes and ears of their Min family wandering in the secular world. Rumors in the capital always start from among these people. It's normal to have something that isn't popular. But Yu Xu obviously understood, knew that he was scolding himself, and secretly gave him a look.

Seeing Ji Hong glanced over, Yu Xu cried immediately: "I saw that they all gave rewards, I thought it was a tea-drinking rule, so I gave some too, who knew those people would hold me down, and cut me off." My fingers. I-I don't know anything..."

An ordinary person wouldn't believe these few words that didn't match the words, but if it was Yu Xu's own parents, his heart might have already softened when he came in and cried a few words.

Yu Jinnian was already a little perplexed, but at this moment he pressed his forehead and was worried, but Qing Huan had already brought over his Xiaoku's account book with discernment, and handed it to him for review. He took it and flipped through a few pages. The pages were still a few taels of expenditure, but after seeing that no one cared about him, he became more courageous and paid more and more, so that two days ago, there was a sudden extra sum of money.

Qing Huan said guiltily in a low voice, "I was going to tell you Brother Nian, but seeing that you are so busy, I delayed it for two days."

Yes, Yu Jinnian was too busy to think that Yu Xu was a troubled little cousin, even if he was not so good-natured, at most it was just playing around, but he never thought that such a neglect would cause Yu Xu to make a big fuss . He hurled the ledger on Yu Xu's body: "Look for yourself!"

Yu Xu picked it up and flipped through it, saying incoherently: "This is not..."

Just as he was talking, the concierge brought in a middle-aged man, with a slender figure like a bamboo pole, with a round face, his eyes rolled around as soon as he spoke, he looked shrewd. After entering the door of Tingyue Residence, he first swept around everyone and saw Yu Xu sitting on the ground, then he fixed his gaze on the feet of Duke Li, bowed a big bow, and said respectfully: "Several sons."

Yu Jinnian frowned: "You are..."

The middle-aged man rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "The young one belongs to the Doujin Building. Your Master Yu has been stubborn in the building these few days. Maybe he has to go out in a hurry, and some accounts have not been settled." He squinted his eyes and looked at it. Looking at Yu Jinnian, "The small one is also a small business, and it never pays on credit, but it is said that Mr. Yu is the world's miracle doctor Bodhisattva, and the relatives of the young family have also visited him. This little master Yu said it was you My brother, who lives in Jinyouting, we thought that since we belonged to Master Yu Xiaoshen’s family, he was a noble person, so we gave this young master Yu credit. Although Mr. Min took him away, but this account... "

Well, after all, this is a door-to-door debt collection.

Yu Jinnian picked up a plate that was emptied by Min Mao, threw it into Yu Xu's arms, and said angrily: "You did a good job!" It's just a bet, and he even gambled under the name of Jin Youting!

Yu Xu was caught off guard by being hit in the chest by a plate, but he didn't dare to attack, he just buried his head and hid aside, staring at the two of them tremblingly, and struggling to death: "I don't know what you are talking about, I just went to have a cup of tea! "

The middle-aged man also looked very winking, and immediately said with a smile: "Yes, yes, Master Yu just had a tea with us, so you can see the money for the tea..." He took out an account page from his arms as he spoke. Come, hand it over to the boy who was waiting on the side, and the boy handed it to Ji Hong to read. Yu Jinnian squinted at the words on it, and suddenly became angry. If he didn't think that there were outsiders present , he might have grabbed Yu Xu up and beat him up.

Under Ji Hong's name, there is absolutely no reason for Jin Youting to refuse to repay his debts, otherwise it would be ugly to say it. Yu Jinnian was just about to admit his guilt and clear his gambling debts first, and then he will punish this little gambler after that, and only then did he touch the silver bag In the middle of the night, I heard Doujinlou's smile and said: "The prince really loves the two young masters. These two brothers belong to the same branch, and now they can serve the same master together. The young masters are very lucky."

It sounded like nothing, but Yue Pin became more and more yin and yang, Yu Jinnian retracted his hand, suddenly changed his mind, got up and put his arms around the middle-aged man's shoulders, walked aside, avoiding the crowd, and whispered: "This... the person in charge, To be honest, I don't have enough money at the moment. But since the person in charge knows that the prince loves me, he will give it a few days, and when I have all the money, I will send it to the Doujin Tower within seven days."

The middle-aged man said with a half-smile: "Young Master Yu, this is against the rules!"

"What rules are there? No matter how urgent the bill is, you still have to hand it in. How much of it will you get?" Yu Jinnian took out a few small gold beads from his money bag, stuffed them into his hands, and if there were any, Pointingly, he glanced in Ji Hong's direction, "You who have worked so hard today to take care of things, take this trip to eat wine, and after seven days, this account will naturally be delivered to you."

The person in charge saw the flirtatious eyes between him and the young master of the Ji family, and immediately understood, thinking to himself that the rumors in the market were indeed true. Those princes and brothers all said that the ghost of Duke Li's family was obsessed and his soul was taken away by a young man. He didn't believe it before. After all, what kind of place is Duke Li's mansion? It is so expensive that you can't wait to eat pearls and jade.

It wasn't until Yu Xu, who claimed to be Jin Youting, hinted that he had a very close relationship with Jin Youting's master, and spent money like water on the Doujin Tower, that he was a little shaken, and took advantage of the debt collection time to find out the truth.

Isn't Jin Youting's master the Duke of Li's family! I heard that Jifu is very powerful now. Although they are just a gambling house, they have been able to operate safely and soundly for so many years, thanks to the protection of dignitaries who come and go. Now if they can have another backer surnamed Ji, it would be great! Even if the account was given to them this time, it was worth it, and it was right to pay the protection money.

The middle-aged man turned the beads in his eyes, and immediately came to his mind, took the gold beads that Yu Jinnian handed over, put them in the skirt of his clothes, bowed and flattered him, and made a seven-day agreement with him hypocritically , turned around again, and bowed to Ji Hong: "The little one will prepare tea in the Doujin Tower in seven days and wait for the masters." Then he glanced at Yu Xu, and followed the previous The porter withdrew.

Yu Jinnian turned around and saw that Yu Xu heard that he was going to torture him for "seven days". He was so frightened that he was holding Ji Hong's calf tremblingly and crying. The kick, although it didn't use too much strength, was full of deterrent force. The kid shrank like a chicken, and hid behind Ji Hong on his knees, with teary eyes, pitiful.

However, he didn't like this, immediately pulled him out, and asked angrily: "Who allows you to use the name of Jin Youting to go out and cheat!"

"I didn't..." Yu Xu shrank his neck, as if he was still in fear, his little face turned pale with fright, "It's them, they asked me where I live, so I just said it was here, I didn't say it was Jin Youting, really No! Brother Nian, son, you believe me, believe me."

Yu Jinnian threw him away, and Yu Xufu hugged him up again: "Brother Nian, what is Seven Days? I already knew I was wrong, please help me!"

When he was in Doujinlou before, he struggled and wrestled with others, and the thin clothes had holes in them, and with the twisting on the ground, the thin silk clothes and pants couldn't stand it, and Yu Jinnian bowed his head Look at him, see that his back is also blue and red. He thought of something in his mind, so he touched Yu Xu's crying wet chin with his sleeve, and turned around to tell the servants in Yu Xu's courtyard: "What are you doing in a daze, take your master back and give him medicine."

Yu Xu's eyes shone brightly, and he yelled sweetly one by one.

After Yu Xu's training for a while, everyone has long been unable to bear him. Now that someone from the Doujinlou came looking for trouble, they enjoyed it and waited for Yu Xu to be rectified. Who would have thought that Yu Jinnian would let him go? People are waiting for you. The two servants curled their lips inwardly, so they had no choice but to hold each arm unconvinced, and carried Yu Xu back. After entering the room, he threw him on the couch, rubbed his hands on his clothes in distaste, and whispered: "Huh, the villain has achieved his ambition."

Yu Xu grinned his teeth in pain just now, but now he can beat someone. Hearing this sentence, he snapped up and grabbed the boy's face, and said rudely: "You are scolding your father! I am the master, you are the grandson!" , you have the ability, you also want to be his brother! You are just a slave, and you still don’t crawl out on the ground!"

The boy dodged nervously for a while, so that he didn't catch his face, but his neck suffered a slight red mark from being scratched. Jin Youting has always been in harmony, and he was glad that he followed a kind-hearted master, but now he was so angry with an inexplicable brat that he wanted to beat someone, but because his own young master Yu was protecting him, he had no choice but to hold back, But he couldn't help complaining in a low voice: "What a dog, it bites everyone."

"Bah! Talk too much with the dog, he's mean to you too?" The other boy snorted, and said a few words in a self-deprecating way. He didn't even bother to pour him a pot of water.

The two murmured as they walked: "You said our young master, what do you want? Why do you have to raise such a guy who eats inside and out?"

"Ah." One of them whispered to his ears, gossiping, "I heard that the young master's family was ruined early, and his life was very lonely before. Now it is not easy to find a relative. I think he cherishes it very much."

That's right, after all, he is the only family member, so it's understandable to want to take care of her a little more.

After the two finished speaking, they sighed in unison, feeling that Yu Xu's days of arrogance are far away, and they still have to suffer—then they opened the door, and suddenly saw Yu Jinnian with an unfriendly expression outside the door, the two of them were startled Jumping, he called "Little Master" as if his tongue was tied, and hurriedly stepped aside with his hands and feet, dodging his eyes guiltyly, worried that Yu Jinnian would blame him for what they scolded Yu Xu just now.

Yu Jinnian held a bottle of medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis in his hand, brushed past them without saying anything.

Yu Xu woke up when he heard the doorbell, and lay on his back on the bed, the tears in his eyes came as soon as he said it, and in the short time it took Yu Jinnian to walk from the outer room to the inner room, he was already crying until his shoulders lightened slightly. Twitching, hugging the pillow so sad. When Yu Jinnian walked to the bed, he raised his eyes desolately, sobbing, "Brother Nian..."

With such a cute appearance, if Yu Jinnian hadn't already had doubts in his heart, and he had just heard their conversation at the door, he might have been fooled by him. Yu Jinnian sat on the side of the bed, lifted his clothes, saw the bruises, thought they were beaten with sticks, so he sprinkled the medicine powder in the small bottle in his hand on the bruises on his back, rubbed them, and moved along the scars. He lowered his pants and opened the already damaged trouser legs.

As expected, there was a soybean mole in the hollow of his left leg, growing impartially in the middle of the hollow of his soft leg.

That day in front of the Sanyu Building, the old vegetable seller once said that the person who robbed them of the money they earned through hard work selling vegetables was a boy with a small mole in the hollow of his leg.
