Chapter 53 Qiu Lubai
The worries of middle age are as thick as wine, and the feelings of girls are always poetry.
Lin Zhongtian had read a lot of poems in his previous life and had an understanding of the thoughts of girls of different ages.
Therefore, when he discovered that Yang Suhua always peeked at him while playing the piano, he knew that this child must have liked him.
Of course, this kind of love is mixed with many complex emotions. It is not love, but more of admiration.
Lin Zhongtian did not intend to respond to this immature and hazy feeling.
Not to mention that the other party is only twelve years old, even if she is really a beautiful girl of the right age, after observing the whole picture of the other party from a high-dimensional perspective, no one will have the slightest sense of worldliness in their heart.
This is one of the negative effects brought about by the evolution of life.
From this perspective, being well-matched is not just a matter of feudal ethics, but also a naked reality.
But it should not be said that after turning off the Byakugan-like perspective and viewing it from a human perspective, the appearance of the girl playing the piano under the locust tree is truly stunning in the world.
No wonder she was bought by the fat copper smelting man for a big price before she even blossomed.
After the song ended, Lin Zhongtian took out a pair of iron finger cots from his arms and handed them to Yang Suhua.
"Your fingers are too slender and lack strength. When you play some music, if you exert force, your fingers will be easily injured by the strings. I asked someone to make this pair of iron finger cots for you. You can try it out first."
"Thank you, Brother Fu!"
The girl quickly took it, put it on her hand happily, and looked at it over and over.
Lin Zhongtian smiled slightly when he saw this. Just a pair of shiny iron finger cots made the girl so happy. No wonder the girls in later generations loved manicures so much.
"This is only temporary." Lin Zhongtian said with a chuckle, "When you grow up in the future, you will need a new pair, but don't think that you can slack off just because you have the iron finger cots. You still need to learn fingering and claw techniques. , but after I finish the course, my hands will become a bit uglier, and there may be some scars left, do you mind?"
The girl looked at Lin Zhongtian's right hand, which was as pale as bone, and shook her head.
"do not mind."
"very good."
Lin Zhongtian nodded. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and turned to look at the gate of the house.
The next second, there was a very regular knock on the door outside the hospital.
It was the secret code used by members of the Alliance to prove their identity when they came to visit.
Lin Zhongtian was about to go over and open the door when the girl playing the piano quickly got up.
"I'll open the door!"
The girl held up her skirt, ran over with small steps, and opened the door of the house.
Outside the door was a young man in civilian clothes. He looked a little strange and the girl didn't recognize him.
But the other party obviously knew her origins. When she opened the door, she held her hand and said, "Miss Yang, my Excellency Pan Yunpeng, entrusted by Brother Ding, came to discuss the evacuation of the capital with Brother Fu."
"Oh, come in quickly!"
Seeing that he was one of her own, the girl quickly let the person in, then she stretched out her head, furtively looked left and right, and after confirming that no one was around, she quickly retracted her head, closed the door, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Seeing this scene, Pan Yunpeng's cheek muscles twitched slightly.
Lin Zhongtian was also a little speechless. He held his forehead and said, "Okay, stop looking at it and come back to practice the piano as soon as possible."
The girl's face turned red, her bare hands twisted her skirt, and she came back a little shyly.
After placing her, Lin Zhongtian turned around and walked into the guest room with Pan Yunpeng.
"Is everything packed?"
"It's ready, there are three big cars."
"Very good, when are you going to leave?"
"Brother Ding said everything will be listened to you."
"listen to me?"
Lin Zhongtian raised his eyebrows and asked with slight surprise: "He won't leave with us?"
Pan Yunpeng shook his head: "No, Brother Ding said he would stay and help Brother Jin."
Lin Zhongtian thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's fine. With him staying in the capital, Li He and I will feel more at ease."
Pan Yunpeng nodded: "We think so too."
"In this case, without further ado, let's set off this afternoon!"
At this point, Lin Zhongtian paused, and then spoke again as if he remembered something: "Oh, by the way, remember to add two more people. Doctor Zhang and her daughter will also leave with us."
Pan Yunpeng was slightly startled, then showed an expression of approval and nodded: "That's good. After Miss Zhang and her family leave the capital, Brother Jin can finally calm down and do his job properly."
After saying that, the two of them smiled knowingly.
Since Zhang's Medical Clinic became the Tongmenghui's stronghold on the outskirts of the capital, this young couple who share a common love for each other have become a common joke among members of nearby Tongmenghui. Once they talk about one of them, they will definitely bring the other one with them.
Lin Zhongtian smiled and patted his shoulder, and said: "Okay, that's it. You go back and prepare first. After that, we will set off."
"clear!"
Pan Yunpeng clasped his fists and accepted the order, then turned and left.
In the afternoon, a group of carriages and horses left Chongwen Gate in the capital.
When they arrived about five miles outside the capital, Lin Zhongtian joined the team with Yang Suhua and Zhang Yan's father and daughter.
Yang Suhua and Zhang Yan were both women who had not left the court, so they rode in the same car.
Lin Zhongtian and Doctor Zhang boarded the most luxuriously decorated carriage in the fleet.
There was a large flag standing on the carriage with four characters written on it - "Shunfeng Escort Agency"
When they entered the carriage, Pan Yunpeng, who had already changed into a brocade robe and gorgeous clothes, was already waiting in the carriage, looking at the two of them with a smile.
In front of him, there was a desk with an exquisite silver wine pot and three silver wine glasses on it. Judging from the way the inner buckle of the cup mouth shrank, it should have been specially designed for carriages to avoid bumpy roads. , spilled the drink.
It is indeed a luxurious and corrupt life for the rich!
Lin Zhongtian sighed inwardly, then picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"Hmm... the floral fragrance is strong, is it the jasmine fragrance from Huanhua Restaurant?"
"Brother Fu is indeed a good and knowledgeable person!"
Pan Yunpeng gave a thumbs up when he heard this.
Lin Zhongtian put down his wine glass with a smile and shook his head: "Although this jasmine fragrance is rich in floral fragrance, it also covers up the original flavor of the wine and is too bland. In comparison, I prefer Qiulu Bai from Shandong."
"I have worked hard in the summer to prepare for the autumn, and today I have achieved all my extraordinary achievements. The decoction decoction of the Japanese flowers has become the true liquid, and the spring veins penetrate the rock and the throat is thin."
Pan Yunpeng recited a poem by a poet from the previous dynasty praising the whiteness of Qiu Lu, and then he looked envious and sighed: "The white color of Qiu Lu is pure and strong, and it is indeed a good wine. It's a pity that my body is limited and I can't drink enough. I really can't taste it." Waiting for strong drinks is a great regret in this life!"
"So that's it."
Lin Zhongtian nodded suddenly.
Pan Yunpeng said with a smile: "I have already thought about it. When I become old and weak and bedridden, I will have to drink heavily. It is best to die drunk on the bed. Only in this way will I come to this world in vain. Last time!"
"Brother Pan is so heroic, Fu Mou admires him!"
Lin Zhongtian laughed, poured another glass, and drank it all to show respect.
After the pleasantries were over, the two finally started talking about business.
"Have you brought all my things out?"
"Bring them all out."
"Thank you so much for your hard work." Lin Zhongtian said with emotion, "The Yamen and Beizhen Fusi have put the entire city under martial law in order to arrest me. Under such circumstances, you can still successfully leave the city with three trucks of goods. It seems that the alliance will be here The secret forces in the capital are not small!"
"Haha, Brother Fu is overthinking it. We can leave the city smoothly today, thanks to you, Brother Fu!"
"Thanks to me?"
Lin Zhongtian raised his eyebrows with surprise on his face.
Pan Yunpeng chuckled and explained: "If Brother Fu hadn't kidnapped Wei Zhongxian before the Jin Yiwei, and Chongzhen failed to get the money from Wei Wei, how could he sell his official position to raise military pay?"
"Oh? Chongzhen has already started selling his official position?"
"If you don't sell your official position, how can you make money from those ministers and relatives of the emperor and the country?"
Pan Yunpeng sneered, and then said with a smile: "Now he still knows that Lian Lian is only selling some unimportant official positions. Among them, the most lucrative one is probably the gate guard of Chongwen Gate. As far as I know, The new city gatekeeper spent his life's savings to buy this position. How could he be willing to do it without making enough money?"
"As long as the money is enough, let alone three loads of goods, even if Brother Fu leaves the city in front of you, he will treat it as nothing."
