Traveling through time and space to meet a replacement bride? But I’m a man!

after eating.

Zhang Chengjin had no intention of leaving, so Xu Wenyan let him stay in the store for one night.

"Brother Zhang, this room is where Brother Chen and I live. You sleep here tonight." Xu Wenyan took out a new mattress and prepared to change it for Zhang Chengjin.

"What about you? I think your room is not big enough." Zhang Chengjin helped to tidy it up.

"Xiao Liu is sleeping alone, I'm going to squeeze in with him."

Zhang Chengjin blurted out: "Then come squeeze in with me. We brothers haven't seen each other for more than ten years."

"This is not a good idea." If Chen Sanlin knew about this, he would definitely be furious.

"It's nothing, I..." Zhang Chengjin had never slept with anyone since he was a child, and he had a serious obsession with cleanliness: "Let's explore the wine business... or something like that."

"Uh... let me sit with you for a while. My guy is very jealous." Xu Wenyan spread the bed and sat back on it.

Although Zhang Chengjin felt a little disappointed, he still sat on the edge of the bed.

The atmosphere was a little awkward at this time, and Xu Wenyan really didn't know what to talk to him about.

"Well, cousin, how was your life as a child?" Zhang Chengjin spoke first.

Xu Wenyan frowned. He really didn't remember. His original memory was very vague: "Just planting vegetables, raising chickens and so on."

"Are you tired?" Zhang Chengjin saw that the jade pendant he gave to Xu Wenyan had fallen on the edge of the bed, so he picked it up and handed it to Xu Wenyan.

Xu Wenyan touched Zhang Chengjin's fingertips, and the cold feeling was almost the same as when he first arrived. After being with Chen Sanlin, his hands and feet became much warmer.

"It's okay, cousin. Your hands are too cold. Have you seen a doctor?"

Zhang Chengjin smiled and said, "I checked it out. The doctor said it's congenital. Anyway, it's no big deal."

"Oh, drink more hot water and soak your feet before going to bed at night." When Xu Wenyan said this, he stood up and said, "Wait for me."

After a while, Xu Wenyan brought in a basin of hot water with some wild chrysanthemum stems in it.

"Come on, come on." Xu Wenyan put the basin on the ground, sat on the bed and took off his shoes.

Zhang Chengjin has never soaked his feet, he always washes them before going to bed.

"Hiss - the water is hot today, let's take advantage of it while it's hot." Xu Wenyan put his feet down and lifted them up again because it was so hot.

Zhang Chengjin was a little overwhelmed because he had never washed feet with others before: "Do you want to wash feet?"

Looking at the things in the basin, Zhang Chengjin became even more confused.

"Oh, just put your feet down."

"Ah."

Zhang Chengjin put his feet down, and subconsciously wanted to lift them up because the water was hot. At this time, Xu Wenyan pressed his feet down with his feet: "Don't move, just bear with it and it won't be hot anymore."

After hearing what Xu Wenyan said, Zhang Chengjin really stopped moving. At this moment, what he cared more about was Xu Wenyan's feet.

This was probably the first time the two of them had such close contact.

"You need to soak your feet for at least 35 minutes. After soaking your feet, you can go to sleep and feel very comfortable."

The wooden basin was not big, just enough for two pairs of feet to fit in. Every careful touch made Zhang Cheng's heart jump.

The next day, they both got up early and Xu Wenyan didn't keep him for dinner, so he went to Qing'an Hall.

"Xiao Jia!" Xu Wenyan walked into the room with a smile.

"Brother!" Jia Anqing ran over happily: "Brother, what took you so long?"

"How are the workers you contacted for me before?" Xu Wenyan wanted to convert the tables in the store into kang-heating type.

You can add charcoal to the hot pot in the future, so it won’t be cold in winter.

The store can accommodate a total of eight tables, and even if only four stoves are burning, the store will be warm.

When going out to eat in winter, the rich will simply bring a hot water bottle or a hand warmer, while the street vendors will bring a small iron stove that burns charcoal.

It can be warmer.

"Oops! I forgot. I'll go now."

After saying this, Jia Anqing ran away in a hurry.

Xu Wenyan was not in a hurry and just sat at the counter to help him run the store.

Jia Anqing knew exactly where the place was and arrived there in just a few minutes' walk.

Just as I was about to go in, I saw a lot of noise inside.

"Xiao Kong, let's do the same today." Seven or eight men in the craftsman factory surrounded a boy who looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old.

"The same goes for my share."

"Me too."

Kong Zhao clenched his fists, but still whispered softly: “My fellow brothers, I have a lot of work to do, and I just got here. If I don’t do it well, my brothers will be scolded by the master.”

"Hahahaha, that's your business. If we get scolded by our master, we'll scold you. Come on, let's go drink."

The seven or eight men didn't even give the boy a chance to speak and left shouting.

Jia Anqing was confused from outside, but he could still see the general situation clearly.

He walked in and saw the young man carrying a huge piece of wood and trying to stand it up.

For some reason, his hand was separated and the huge piece of wood slid down, about to hit the boy.

Jia Anqing pulled him over and said, "Be careful."

"Bam—"

The huge log fell heavily to the ground and actually split in the middle.

"Oh no." The young man squatted on the ground, looking at the broken wood. This piece of wood would cost more than one or two taels of silver.

I was so hungry that I felt a little dizzy, or in common parlance, I had low blood sugar. My hands lost strength and I smashed the food down.

He worked for the craftsman factory for free, so how can he get compensation?

"What a disaster! If it weren't for me, you would have been crushed to death." Jia Anqing said.

Kong Zhao stood up and bowed to Jia Anqing: "Thank you."

"Hey! It's you." Jia Anqing had seen this young man, who was half a head taller than him, at the fireworks display.

At that time, when I was accompanying Chen Sanlin to find Xu Wenyan, I was knocked down by the crowd and it was this young man who held me back.

Kong Zhao raised his head and looked carefully at the young man in dark blue silk. He seemed to be a son of a wealthy family.

But how could a man like him know rich people?

"I'm sorry, I don't have much impression of you, young master."

Jia Anqing was not convinced. How could this person not remember him? "How could that be? You saved me at the last fireworks party. Now I have saved you too. We are even now."

Although he still couldn't remember it, Kong Zhao nodded: "Okay."

Seeing the lost look on the boy's face, Jia Anqing patted him on the shoulder and said, "Oh, it's just a piece of wood. Don't be too sad."

After saying this, Kong Zhao looked even more dejected.

Jia Anqing also realized that he had said something wrong. Brother Xu once told him, "People's joys and sorrows are not the same. What you think is within your reach may be what others have worked hard for their entire lives."

"Ahem, come and help me with the work. Are you the craftsman here?"

Kong Zhao shook his head: "I just got here, I don't know how to do it yet."

"Oh, it's okay, just help me out, and then I'll pay you and you'll have money to go with me."

"Really?" Kong Zhao looked at Jia Anqing gratefully.

"Of course!"

Just as the two were chatting, a middle-aged man walked over with a gloomy face.
