The Scroll of Departures Chapter 10

Seeing that Kylan Tao was staying at home, Finley Lao persuaded him to go out for a walk so that he could familiarize himself with the customs and customs of Tanyang County.

The end of the year is approaching and the wind is freezing. Pedestrians on the street come and go to buy new year goods.

With Finley Lao here, Kylan Tao didn't need to get involved in these things. He just took Easton to visit small shops such as dim sum shops.

Easton remembered that he used to like sweet-scented osmanthus cake, so she bought some for him to eat while walking.

As soon as Kylan Tao opened his mouth, the cold wind rushed in, and his teeth were filled with chills. He only ate two pieces and then stopped. He was about to give the rest to Easton, but when he turned around, someone happened to put it in his hand. The sweet-scented osmanthus cakes were scattered on the ground.

Easton jumped out and said, "How do you walk?"

The man was about to defend himself, but when he saw Kylan Tao's face clearly, a look of joy immediately appeared on his face, "Master Tao?"

Easton asked suspiciously: "Who are you?"

Kylan Tao said in surprise: "Wang Pengcheng?"

Easton's eyes twitched. Could it be that unfilial son who was beaten several times? He subconsciously stood in front of Kylan Tao and looked at him warily. "what are you up to?"

Wang Pengcheng bowed to Kylan Tao and said, "It's better to meet by chance than to invite me. Master Tao, I don't know if I can do it for you. I would like to invite you to the Xianwei Pavilion."

Easton tugged on Kylan Tao's sleeve and whispered in his ear: "I'm afraid he might be unkind."

Although he whispered, Wang Pengcheng still heard clearly. He quickly waved his hands and said with a smile: "This young master is too worried. I just want to thank Mr. Tao."

"Thank you?" Where can anyone say thank you after being beaten? Easton became more suspicious.

But Wang Pengcheng didn't care, grabbed Kylan Tao's arm and walked towards Xianwei Tower.

Easton chased after him and wanted to pull away, but Kylan Tao said, "I happen to be tired, I might as well take a rest."

Wang Pengcheng said repeatedly: "That's right. After eating Xianweilou, you can also stop by Mingcui Ju to sit down."

Easton stamped his feet on the spot, and finally chased after him unwillingly.

It is said that this Xianwei Restaurant is the most famous restaurant in Tanyang County. All the people who come and go are wealthy businessmen and literati. A decent table is enough for an ordinary person to eat for a month, and it is expensive.

When Wang Pengcheng and Kylan Tao arrived, it was already noon, and Xianwei Tower was almost full.

Wang Pengcheng negotiated with the shopkeeper for a long time before vacating an empty seat in the corner. He also directed his staff to move a screen to block the situation and arrange a corner of the lobby like a small box. After all this troublesome work, he sat down and said humbly: "Sir, don't be surprised. I really didn't expect to meet you by chance on the street. I didn't treat you well, so I can only feel wronged by you."

Kylan Tao waved his hand and said with a smile: "That's good."

Easton stood aside coyly, looking at Kylan Tao eagerly, and waited for him to nod before sitting down happily.

"I ordered a few famous dishes from Xianweilou. Your Excellency, you can try them later. If it's not enough, just ask." Wang Pengcheng didn't seem surprised that Easton sat down. He poured tea for Kylan Tao himself, and even Easton enjoyed it. Return the honor of being served.

Kylan Tao thought of the slap in the face and felt guilty, and asked softly: "Isn't your butt in the way?"

Wang Pengcheng smiled awkwardly and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, sir, those government officials didn't try hard. I went back and applied medicine and it will be fine." He originally thought that Kylan Tao would ask why the government officials didn't work hard, and he was thinking about whether to kill them on purpose. Afterwards, Kylan Tao just nodded and said, "That's fine." He didn't seem to care about the matter, so he couldn't help but think that he had already figured out what happened in the yamen. Palm, the "light slap" to him was also expected, and he admired him even more in his heart.

"Speaking of which, if it hadn't been for your master's ingenious plan, I'm afraid the bad blood between my mother and I wouldn't have been resolved so quickly."

Not to mention that Easton was confused, Kylan Tao was also confused.

Wang Pengcheng sighed: "Since my late wife passed away, I have no intention of marrying again. But my mother has been thinking about my Wang family having no heirs, and has repeatedly urged me. This time, she even went to court to force me to submit. If it hadn't been for your lord's beating. My mother's love for me, I'm afraid I'm still not at peace."

Easton asked curiously: "It's a big deal to carry on the family line, why don't you want to marry again?"

Wang Pengcheng's eyes flickered and he didn't say anything for a long time.

Kylan Tao was touched in his heart and said, "You said to the deceased Mrs. Wang that 'the water is so weak that you can only drink it from one ladle'?" After he finished speaking, he looked at Easton's expression. Seeing him nod, I felt relieved.

Wang Pengcheng murmured twice, and just as the food was being served, the conversation was interrupted.

The dishes at Xianweilou are really good.

Kylan Tao and Easton spent a long time in a tight relationship. It was rare to eat such delicious food, and they couldn't stop eating with their chopsticks.

Wang Pengcheng only tasted a few mouthfuls, then stopped, and finally waited for them to finish eating before saying, "I heard that Lord Tao only brought two servants to Tanyang County?"

Kylan Tao said: "Yes."

Wang Pengcheng tentatively said: "That lady..."

Easton said bluntly: "My young master is not married yet."

"Oh?" Wang Pengcheng's eyes lit up and he whispered, "Is it possible that Mr. Tao has a high vision and doesn't like it?"

Tao Mogan smiled and said: "Where. It's just that I haven't been able to get free time."

The words "not free" hit Wang Pengcheng's heart, and his smile suddenly became a hundred times brighter. "If you are interested, may I be able to make some plans for you?"

Easton's face turned pale when he remembered that Kylan Tao had to be a man.

Kylan Tao declined: "My father passed away less than a year ago, and I still have to observe filial piety."

"Oh, that's it." Wang Pengcheng looked disappointed.

Easton looked at him in surprise and said, "You are so strange. Your mother asked you to get a wife before, but you refused in every possible way. How come you are now a matchmaker for others?"

Wang Pengcheng looked embarrassed, "I'm just grateful to Lord Tao for relieving my mother and I's worries, so I want to do my little bit to help Lord Tao. After all, Lord Tao is here for the first time, and the inner courtyard must also need someone to take care of it." "Speaking of the inner courtyard, he seemed to think of something and said, "I wonder if Mr. Tao has visited these two teachers since he came to talk about Yang?"

Kylan Tao said blankly: "I never had a teacher in Tanyang County."

"I'm referring to Mr. Yichui and Mr. Lin." He lowered his voice.

Kylan Tao suddenly remembered that he had mentioned this matter to Finley Lao, but then he was temporarily put on hold because he could not choose a gift, and this has been put on hold until now. "Not yet."

Wang Pengcheng hesitated and hinted: "It would be better to go there."

Kylan Tao said: "I just don't know what gifts the two gentlemen like."

Wang Pengcheng said with a smile: "So I said that if Mr. Tao had a wife to take care of the inner court, the matter would be much simpler. In addition to being both famous lawyers, Mr. Yichui and Mr. Lin also have one thing in common, which is their love for each other. Madam, obey your advice."

Kylan Tao scratched his head and said, "Then I will give you some gold and silver jewelry and the two ladies?"

Wang Pengcheng's face darkened, wondering how this adult could understand big things and be so confused about small things. He hurriedly said: "Absolutely not. After all, you are a man, so... it may not be appropriate for the two gentlemen to give you such a gift."

Kylan Tao's ears were slightly red, and he said awkwardly, "I didn't think well enough." He had no interest in women since he was a child, and rarely paid attention to the relationship between men and women.

"That's alright." Wang Pengcheng thought for a while and said, "It's rare for me and your Excellency to hit it off right away, so I'll just say one more thing."

Kylan Tao cupped his hands and said, "Please tell me."

"Mr. Yichui and his wife, and Mr. and Mrs. Lin both have disciples, did you know?"

Kylan Tao cheered up, "I know, it's Gu She."

Wang Pengcheng was startled by the light in his eyes, "Mr. Gu is Mr. Yi Chui's disciple. And Mr. Lin's disciple is Mr. Lu from Lu Zhenxue."

Kylan Tao nodded and said, "I know it too."

When Wang Pengcheng heard him say "yes", he understood in his heart and said with a smile: "No wonder the old god is here, sir. It turns out that Mr. Gu and Mr. Lu have already made friends, but I was worried too much."

Kylan Tao met Lu Zhenxue and Gu She by chance, but it was difficult to explain, so he was allowed to misunderstand them.

After the three of them had finished their meal, they left and left the building.

Easton followed Kylan Tao on the way back to the county office, frowning, "I always feel that this person has something up his sleeve."

Kylan Tao sighed: "What can I do to be plotted against?"

"No. The young master still remembers that before we went to Xianwei Tower, he clearly said that he would invite us to Mingcuiju. But as soon as we finished the meal, he paid the bill and ran away." Easton muttered road.

Kylan Tao said with a smile: "If you miss Ming Cui Ju, I can invite you some other time."

"It's not Mingcuiju's fault, it's...well, the young master should be careful about him anyway."

Seeing Easton chattering endlessly, Kylan Tao had no choice but to agree.
