    On the second day, the sky was clear.

    Jinbao yawned early in the morning, arranged the morning meal for Xue Yan, and was walking back along the corridor, when he happened to meet Su Xiaoqian who came back to resume his life.

    "How's it going?" Jinbao asked.

    Su Xiaoqian said: "Back to father-in-law, the objects in His Royal Highness's room have been taken care of, and the damaged roof has been sealed for the time being. It only takes a while to invite a few craftsmen, and it can be repaired today."

    His voice was soft, like a chirping.

    Jinbao squinted his eyes and glanced inside the house.

    "Can it be fixed today?" he asked.

    Su Xiaoqian nodded.

    Jinbao said again: "Will it be possible to repair it in two days?"

    Su Xiaoqian was taken aback: "In two days?"

    Seeing Jin Bao looking at her, his eyes twitched, he slanted ambiguously in the direction of the main house, and then turned back as if nothing had happened.

    He didn't speak, just snorted.

    Su Xiaoqian was stunned for a while, then came back to her senses.

    She covered her lips and smiled: "Of course it is possible, then this craftsman needs to be invited by the servants in person."

    Jinbao gave her an approving look: "Then let's do it."

    Su Xiaoqian gave him a soft blessing, turned around and went out. The waist is as thin as a wicker, and even if it is not deliberately fiddled with while walking, it is still swaying.

    "I was surprised that Acacia didn't show, it turned out to be only because of the bone. I don't know what happened..." Su Xiaoqian hummed a song after walking a little further.

    In the bright early summer sunshine, it sounds very pleasant.

    Although Jinbao didn't understand it well, his mood brightened. He quickly entered the room, waited for Xue Yan to get up, and asked the maids to arrange their meals outside.

    When it was time to eat, Jinbao presented a treasure as if he was offering food to Xue Yan, and said, "It's too unfortunate to say, just now Su Xiaoqian came to report, saying that the roof of His Royal Highness is a little bad, and it is estimated that it will take two repairs. Only in the day will you be able to pick it up well.”

    Jun Huailang didn't know much about this. Hearing Jinbao's words, he couldn't help but frown: "So troublesome?"

    Xue Yan glanced at Jinbao sideways, and saw that he was scornful, and at first glance he was making up nonsense.

    He looked back, but Quan Dang didn't notice.

    Jun Huailang injured his right hand, and it was a little hard to hold chopsticks, so he had to use Fu Yi to put the dish into his bowl, and then he held a spoon in his left hand and ate the dish into the mouth.

    Jun Huailang has strict rules in his family since he was a child, and he doesn't talk much during meals. Whatever came with his clothespin, he would eat silently without being picky.

    However, Xue Yan saw that there was a steamed perch, and Jun Huailang's eyes brightened when he was eating it. But Fuyi seemed to take into account that he was not good at picking up thorns, so he only took a chopstick and didn't move it.

    Jun Huailang didn't say much.

    Xue Yan retracted his gaze, took a pair of new chopsticks next to him, picked up a large piece of fish belly, put it in his bowl, and picked out the few thorns in it: "Then stay here for two more days. ."

    Jun Huailang said, "I can't let you sleep outside every day."

    Xue Yan lowered his eyes and said, "It's okay, you just stay."

    At this moment, Su Xiaoqian hurried in.

    Jinbao looked up and saw a rare panic on her face. She kept looking at herself, but didn't say anything.

    "What's wrong?" Jinbao asked hurriedly.

    Su Xiaoqian's eyes wandered on the faces of Jun Huailang and Xue Yan. Seeing that they raised their heads, she quickly covered up their panicked expressions.

    "His Royal Highness, Young Master Shen is here." She glanced at Jin Bao and hurriedly said to Jun Huailang. "He... heard that the roof of His Royal Highness was broken, so he brought a group of craftsmen and said that he would come to repair the roof for His Highness..."

    Having said that, she stopped talking.

    And when Xue Yan heard this, the hand that picked the fishbone stopped in place.

    Jin Bao's face showed a look that could not bear to look directly.

    This silly boy from the Shen family... he will really add to the chaos.

    Among the people in the room, Jun Huailang was the only one who didn't realize it, with a smile on his face due to Shen Liufeng's enthusiasm, and said with a light smile: "Liufeng is really... I'll go take a look."

    After saying that, he put down his chopsticks and planned to go out to have a look.

    When people come to their own homes to repair the roof, they can't let them do their own work. It's time to thank him, let someone sit down and have a cup of hot tea...

    Suddenly, a piece of snow-white fish belly fell into Jun Huailang's bowl.

    A large piece of fish is perfectly flat, but the spines in it have already been picked clean by another person.

    Jun Huailang looked at Xue Yan, and saw that he didn't lift his head, he sat quietly in the same place, picked up another piece of fish, put it on his plate, and provoked a thorn.

    Feeling Jun Huailang's gaze, Xue Yan raised his head and glanced at him lightly.

    "Eat first," he said.

    So, Jun Huailang was inexplicably stuffed with fish, and he just ate half of the perch before being released by Xue Yan.

    Fortunately, the perch was light and delicious, and he was amazed at the first bite. Therefore, eating too much is not greasy, but has an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

    When he put down his chopsticks, Jun Huailang got up and was about to leave when Xue Yan suddenly opened his mouth.

    "If you just want to study, you don't have to go to the academy." He looked up at Jun Huailang. "I have some books that you can use, just read them in the house. That young master of the Shen family, who travels all day long, will affect you."

    Saying that, he looked sideways at Jinbao: "Didn't you just bring some? I'll pack it up in a while and send it to Shizi's room."

    Jinbao pouted in his heart.

    Just brought some? How could this ancestor who shouted and killed happened to bring those annotations of the Four Books and Five Classics.

    It's not that he let himself search around in the past few days, and ran around the bookstore in Jinling, and got a lot of them.

    Also "just brought some"? This kind of nonsense should be used to fool that kind-hearted Bodhisattva.

    Jin Bao sneered in his heart, but his face was meticulous, and he said with a smile: "As ordered, the servant will fetch it in a while and send it to His Royal Highness."

    It took a long time for Xue Yan to stay here, so when Jun Huailang returned to his courtyard, the roof was almost repaired.

    The craftsmen on the eaves were swiftly doing the final cleaning. Shen Liufeng was sitting on the Taishi chair in the courtyard with his legs crossed, drinking tea and overseeing the work.

    Jun Huailang couldn't help but wonder, it turns out that Shen Liufeng is so rich? The craftsman he hired at home had to repair the roof for two days, but the person he brought in did it in one meal?

    Seeing Jun Huailang coming, Shen Liufeng raised his hand to greet him: "Come on, Huailang!"

    Jun Huailang stepped forward and thanked him first: "It's too much trouble for you, but you broke the roof and bothered you to make a special trip."

    Shen Liufeng waved his hand: "I originally wanted to come to play with you, and I heard that your roof was broken at the door, so I brought a few people to repair it by the way - your Longjing here is too bitter, I just asked someone to pick it up. This year's new Dahongpao is here."

    Jun Huailang was quite confused.

    "Then why did you come today?" Jun Huailang was afraid that it would be inappropriate for him to see him again, and he would send a lot of things, so he quickly diverted his attention and said.

    Sure enough, when Shen Liufeng heard the words, he immediately forgot about the stubble of tea leaves. He said, "I just want to ask you, do you want to go out to Yangzhou for an outing?"

    Jun Huailang was puzzled when he heard the words: "What are you going to do in Yangzhou?"

    Shen Liufeng said: "Originally, Yangzhou looks good in summer. I want to go to Slender West Lake to see the weeping willows. Just a few days ago, I heard that there was a reclusive genius doctor in the mountains on the outskirts of Yangzhou. Divine doctor, I want to go and see what he looks like."

    When Jun Huailang heard the words, he couldn't help thinking of what Xue Yan had just said.

    He had never heard Xue Yan speak ill of anyone, but this was the first time he had ever heard of it. But he never thought that Xue Yan had just finished talking about Shen Liufeng's "traveling the mountains and water all day", when he turned his face and Shen Liufeng invited him out to play.

    Jun Huailang couldn't help laughing.

    "What are you laughing at?" Shen Liufeng was puzzled.

    Jun Huailang said sternly when he heard the words: "I was thinking, since the genius doctor is an expert who avoids the world, how can he be easily found?"

    Shen Liufeng said: "So I have to look for it! I have already inquired about it, and I am waiting to go to Yangzhou to find it!"

    Jun Huailang also found it interesting to hear it, but seeing that it was already summer, the flood in the previous life was about to happen. Going out to find some kind of magical doctor is a matter of uncertainty, and Jun Huailang does not dare to have such a leisurely mood.

    "I'm too lazy to run, so forget it." Jun Huailang warmly rejected him.

    Shen Liufeng felt a pity when he heard this, but he didn't force him any more, he only said that he would go, and if he had any knowledge when he came back, he would tell Jun Huailang when he came back.

    Jun Huailang agreed with a smile.

    So, when the roof was finished, Shen Liufeng led the craftsmen back. Jun Huailang returned to the room, and the servants carried the cages that were kept in the wing room last night and put them back again.

    At this moment, there was another bustling noise at the entrance of Jun Huailang's courtyard.

    Jun Huailang looked out, and saw a group of young servants, carrying a bunch of large and small things, heading towards his room mightily.

    This... what is Shen Liufeng doing?

    But then, Jun Huailang saw the figure who came in behind him.

    It was a treasure.

    Jin Bao instructed the servants, and actually carried a whole set of furniture to Jun Huailang's courtyard. The furniture was carved from a whole set of golden nanmu, with elegant patterns and exquisite workmanship. The servants carefully placed these things under Jun Huailang's corridor, and then went in to move the old furniture in the house.

    These old furniture were originally in the governor's mansion. Jun Huailang and his son only stayed here for two years, so everything was kept simple, and basically nothing was changed.

    "This is..." Seeing Jinbao walking in, Jun Huailang hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

    Seeing Jin Bao's laughter, he could not see his teeth but his eyes: "His Royal Highness, the prince said that he was worried that the items in your room would be damaged by blisters, so he simply replaced them together."

    With that said, he instructed the servants to change furniture in and out.

    Jun Huailang hurriedly stopped him: "There's nothing to spoil, so don't be busy."

    How can this work?Jinbao knew that his master was a drunkard and not drinking.The young master of the Shen family repaired the roof for Jun Huailang. After he was unwilling to be let down, he would replace the items in Jun Huailang's room with new ones, as if he had overwhelmed the other party.

    Just like males in the wild, to attract mates, they always show their tail feathers and fur, and they also fight with other males to show their strength.

    Presumably this is rooted in the bones of male competition, especially in front of the person he likes, very naive.

    Jinbao smiled and said: "His Royal Highness should accept it, the lord can take care of it! These items were brought from the palace of the Chang'an prince, and were originally reserved for the prince himself. Since the prince ordered, exchange the items.There's nothing wrong with Xin, His Royal Highness is at ease."

    Jun Huailang was still puzzled: "It's clearly unnecessary..."

    And Fu Yi, who was behind him, stared dumbfoundedly at the people entering and leaving the room. Any table or chair that moved in could be changed to another room.

    "Why does it seem like they are fighting for favor..."

    Fuyi muttered to himself.
