That's right, in the garden, Liu Zian actually saw his prospective sister-in-law talking happily with Mr. Baohe.Although Mr. Baohe treats outsiders like a spring breeze on the surface, in fact, he can make people feel a clear sense of distance.Ordinary people who don't get along with him much may not notice it, but Liu Zian has traveled with him several times, and although he can't be said to be familiar with some of his small movements, he knows them very well.

Originally, Liu Zian thought it was Mr. Baohe who got lost in his garden, and happened to meet his sister-in-law-to-be, and said hello out of politeness.In the end, he took a closer look, and Liu Zian found that Mr. Baohe's appearance was quite familiar with his sister-in-law... If Liu Zian could convince himself to believe in his elder brother's vision before seeing this scene, he believed that the girl he brought back was not A woman of unknown origin, but now... Liu Zian felt that the person his husband knew would definitely not be a normal person.

"Zian, what's the matter?" Mr. Baohe had noticed Liu Zian's arrival a long time ago. At first, he saw his hurried steps, as if he was in a hurry, so he didn't stop him.Unexpectedly, he stopped by himself, looked at this side with empty eyes and became dazed.

"Sir, do you know this girl?" Liu Zian thought for a while, and finally plucked up the courage to ask for his elder brother's lifelong happiness.

"We met once before." Mr. Baohe replied.

"A one-sided relationship..." Liu Zian subconsciously felt that the so-called one-sided relationship of the husband may not be as simple as imagined, but his parents and brothers seem to be very convinced of this Mr. Baohe, if he can come forward to prove the identity of this girl , maybe things have a turning point.

"Sir, do you know where this girl's home is?" Liu Zian tried his best to ignore the pale and restless expression of the girl brought back by his elder brother, and asked.

"I know...you don't need to worry about this matter, I'll go tell your parents." Seeing Liu Zian's suspicious gaze, Mr. Baohe could not help but smile and added, "Don't worry, I won't disturb you Brother's marriage."

Later, I don’t know what Mr. Baohe told Liu’s father and Liu’s mother. In short, within a few days, they ordered that the girl should be treated like a grandma, and at the same time, they were preparing all kinds of things for the wedding. Items, just wait for the auspicious day to marry her into the door.

Everything was going smoothly. If the normal routine was followed, the girl should have a perfect wedding, and after the wedding, she would live happily with the eldest brother of the Liu family.However, just a few days before the wedding, the girl's behavior became a little abnormal.

According to the maid serving the girl, one afternoon the girl said she wanted to eat something light, so she asked the kitchen to prepare pearl balls, crystal steamed dumplings, and red dates and white fungus soup.But when the food was ready and served, the girl was furious again, saying that the clear soup lacked water, and she lost her appetite after watching it, so she asked her to prepare some heavy-tasting meals.The servant girl who was serving her felt a little wronged by the girl's scolding for no reason, but she had to swallow her anger and go to the kitchen to order another meal when she thought that the girl was her appointed grandma.In the end, when the second meal was finally prepared and served, the girl burst into tears again, saying that she was living under the fence, and even had to watch the maidservant's face when eating, and that she had a bad stomach when she urinated, and she never dared to eat those spicy and greasy food.The servant girl felt that she had never seen such a difficult master before. This is the door that has not yet married into the Liu family. If one day they really marry in, their hard life will be over.

The tailor who made clothes for the girl also said that the girl had told someone before that she liked plain and simple clothes. He also felt that although the girl came from the village, she had an orchid-like aura all over her body.As a result, when the clothes were ready, the servant girl brought the clothes to him to rework, saying that the girl said that she was going to get married, not a monk, and asked the tailor to make some gorgeous and fashionable styles.The tailor had a good impression of the girl before, and thought that she might be getting married soon, so he had a new idea, so he didn't say anything, just found some colors that the little girl liked, and made a new batch of clothes.As a result, although these clothes were not returned, the girl refused to wear them and still wore her old clothes every day.That day when Madam saw that she was still wearing the same clothes when she came, she thought that the mansion had treated her badly, so she just deducted half a month's wages from those who served her closely.

Hearing this kind of words once or twice, Liu Zian still felt that those servants were gossiping, but the more times he heard it, he couldn't help wondering if there was something wrong with this girl.However, although I am still taken care of by the whole family as a child, I am still a man who is about to grow up anyway. If I see my unmarried sister-in-law alone, if someone with a heart sees it, both my reputation and her reputation will be damaged... ...However, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Liu Zian would never have believed that his elder brother, himself, Mr. Baohe, and all the young and old in the Liu family had all gone wrong.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Liu Zian to have a chance to meet the girl.That day, the second elder brother of the Liu family brought back a novelty. It is said that it was brought back by a business partner when he went overseas.It was about one person tall, with a large crystal mirror in the middle, surrounded by shiny brass, on which was carved a naked little boy with wings growing from his ribs, holding a small bow and arrow in his hand , is said to be the god of love on the western side.

"Look, Yue Lao on our side is an old man, which makes sense. After all, people always like to talk to others when they are old. Their Cupid is actually a little boy. How can such a small child know anything?" Call it love?" Mother Liu laughed.

"Yes, the engraving on it is the love tragedy caused by that 'little child'. Look at the tree in the lower right corner, half of which is a human and half a tree. This is Daphne, and the man next to her is Apollo, the sun god. It is said that Apollo was shot by the child's arrow of love and fell in love with the beautiful girl Daphne hopelessly, while Daphne was shot by the arrow of hatred and hated Apollo hopelessly... Originally , if there is no trouble from the child, Apollo and Daphne may become a happy couple, but because of the child's participation, in the end Daphne begged the river god to turn herself into a tree in order to avoid Apollo's pursuit..." Bao Mr. He said with a sigh, and glanced at the girl from the corner of his eye as he spoke.

Liu Zian noticed the abnormality of his husband, so he also looked in the direction of his erratic eyes.I saw that the girl who I thought was the prospective sister-in-law was completely different now than before.Let's put it this way, except for the appearance, everything has changed.In the past, she was a quiet and gentle woman who spoke kindly; now she looks like a lively and bright girl, and her words and deeds are quite aggressive, like a rose with thorns.

It's really weird.Liu Zian felt that Mr. Baohe must know something, so after everyone left, he secretly pulled Mr. Baohe into a corner, intending to ask him to clarify.

"What are you doing?" Mr. Baohe looked at Liu Zian's thieves, a bit dumbfounded.

"Sir, you don't have to pretend. I know you must know something." Liu Zian questioned.

"Even if you don't ask me, I will tell you... However, this matter is a long story, and I need to make some preparations... How about this, come to my house to find me after you have two cups of tea, and I will talk to you in detail listen."

However, when Liu Zian came to Mr. Baohe's house as scheduled, he couldn't help but feel the corners of his eyes twitch for Mr. Baohe's so-called "preparation"...

Peanuts, melon seeds, candied fruit, green tea...

"Sir, are you going to have a tea party?" Liu Zian asked, resisting the urge to swear.

"Ah, it's mainly because the story is so interesting. It's a pity if I didn't make enough preparations." Mr. Baohe replied solemnly.

"Sir, I am discussing this issue with you very seriously. Can you be more serious too!" Liu Zian felt that if Mr. Baohe was not so beautiful, he would have punched him if he couldn't do it.

"Okay, then let me, a travel writer named Baohe, start to tell you, Master Liu Zian, the ins and outs of this matter." Mr. Baohe suddenly sat upright, speaking in a very serious tone Said.

Liu Zian couldn't help complaining in his heart: Sir, don't think I didn't see the smile in your eyes...

It turned out that during the last trip, due to too many times of getting lost, too much travel expenses (he died) and the absence of Liu Zian, the little God of Wealth, Mr. Baohe's travel expenses were not enough as expected.

"It's really nerve-wracking..." Mr. Baohe looked at the empty purse and sighed.Since he accepted Liu Zian as his apprentice, he hasn't worried about travel expenses for a long time.

"It's time to find a job." Mr. Baohe said to himself.That's right, Mr. Baohe has encountered the situation of not having enough money before. Usually, he will find a temporary job for himself at such a time, and then travel after earning enough travel expenses.

"Oh my god, where did this little beauty come from? Let me take a look. Is she lost or out of money? Do you want to go to my brother's house to rest?"

Of course, there are also people who take the initiative to send money to their door.It's just that Mr. Baohe has never dared to accept the "kindness" of these people. Although he has never experienced it, he always feels that the price behind this "kindness" is beyond his ability.

Coincidentally, when Mr. Baohe was worrying about travel expenses, a good business came to make money.It turned out that a big maid died in a well-known local family. The maid was very favored by the second wife of the master's family.He also ordered that she be transported back to her hometown for burial, and the fallen leaves return to her roots.It stands to reason that this girl lives in Shuangniangwan, not far away, but it is said that this place is a bit evil, so no one in the whole family is willing to go to such a good job.Helpless, the mansion had no choice but to post a notice offering a reward of two pennies, hoping that someone would be willing to take up the job under the huge sum of money.

"Hey, they don't want to do the life-threatening work themselves, and they look for us little people... Is it so easy to earn these two hanging money?" A black-faced man next to him said angrily.

"It's just a girl, how can the mansion pay so much money? I guess even if the coffin bearers really come back intact, they will have to take the opportunity to deduct it. Think we are all stupid!" Another yellow-faced man with a hunchback Also followed Ying Hedao.

"With a lot of money, there must be a brave man. If it is not guaranteed, what desperado will be willing to take this job?" Before the man finished speaking, he heard a "stab" and someone revealed the notice.And this "desperado" is none other than Mr. Baohe.

"It's really you who posted the notice?" The steward in charge of the mansion looked at the notice for a while, and then at Mr. Baohe, asking in disbelief.

According to his thinking, the person who dared to reveal this notice was either a heavily indebted gambler or a poor and crazy lunatic, and these two kinds of people had dealt with each other many times, so they naturally knew how to deal with them.But this person in front of him... the steward looked Mr. Baohe up and down. Although this person was wearing common clothes, he had a dusty temperament.No matter how you look at it, this person doesn't seem like someone who will take on this kind of work.

"The notice is in my hand, so of course I revealed it." Mr. Baohe replied.

The steward sighed, shook his head, picked up his pen, and asked, "What's your name? Why did you reveal that notice? Have you ever escorted a coffin? Have you been to Shuangniang Bay?"

Mr. Baohe replied one by one: "My name is Baohe, and I am a traveler. Because I ran out of money and needed money urgently, I went to reveal the notice. Escorting the coffin is not a problem. I travel around all the year round and have been to many places. At the end of last year I’ve also been to Shuangniang Bay.”

However, even though he said so, Mr. Baohe still felt a little guilty in his heart.I know how serious my lost symptoms are, and I have never been to Shuangniang Bay.However, according to the locals here, Shuangniang Bay should not be far away, and you should be able to find it by asking someone for directions... You must not let the money you get fly away just because of this trivial matter.

"In that case... well, it's settled. It takes two days to go to Shuangniang Bay, so go buy some dry food... keep the rest for yourself... this is a reward... yes Travel expenses are not included in the remuneration." The manager took out half a penny from his pocket and handed it to Mr. Baohe.I thought to myself: Baohe...why does this name sound familiar?
