"Slow down!" Shen Jun immediately interrupted, "There are only silks and satins in the house, but all you found in my courtyard are rice noodles and half-packed snacks. With this alone, Fourth Aunt wants to take him away?"

"Of course you are not that stupid. If you steal silk and satin, you must exchange it for cash and buy some rice noodles back." Fourth Aunt looked like you don't want to fool me, "Otherwise, where did you get the money to buy rice and noodles?" ?”

After all, the fourth aunt couldn't help but wink, and the third servant immediately stepped forward to restrain Xiao Anzi, who was kicking and kicking with a face full of horror, while crying desperately, "Master save me, master save me!" ! ’ Seeing this, Xiao Yuanzi hurried forward to beat the boy, trying to free Xiao Anzi from freedom, and the three immediately wrestled together.

The fourth aunt frowned and winked again, and the other three maidservants immediately rushed up to help.

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the dilapidated small courtyard suddenly became a mess, only to see mud and snow splashing, snow and water dancing, and trampled footprints all over the ground, but I saw the six servants and maidservants writhing together, tearing each other, biting each other, twisting each other. I pulled, broke a dead branch, trampled a broken weed, and there were bursts of cries for help and screams of pain. After a while, the six of them writhed and fell on the snow. In the field, there was another burst of crying and cursing, and the crackling was very chaotic.

The fourth aunt wrinkled her elegant face and hid aside, she also became a little impatient at the moment, and made a face again, and the two servants who were carrying the rice noodles immediately threw the rice noodles in their hands into the snow indiscriminately. Lost, rolled up his sleeves and rushed forward.

At this moment, a cold light flashed in Shen Jun's eyes, and he immediately walked up to the fourth aunt in three or two steps, and grabbed the latter's right wrist tightly by surprise. It fell to the snow with a 'snap' and a hole was made, and the fourth aunt immediately screamed after her face paled on the spot.The eight people who had been wrestling with each other turned their heads abruptly. Seeing this, they hurriedly got up one by one and ran over to rescue him.

A scuffle turned into a tug-of-war. The three men and the three women dragged the fourth aunt to the south with all their might, and Xiao Yuanzi and Xiao Anzi also pulled Shen Jun to the north with all their strength. .The fourth aunt rolled her eyes while panting heavily, her complexion almost turned into a pig's liver color, and she was about to pass away.Shen Jun also clenched his teeth tightly, and Wang Ba didn't let go as if he was biting on fresh meat.The two sides pulled back and forth, and couldn't come to a stalemate, but the little Dezi was dumbfounded on the spot, and saw the latter's expression of bewilderment, just froze on the spot like a stone statue, only caring about the wind. messy.

However, after all, the strengths of the two sides are very different. After a while, Shen Jun finally couldn't hold on, and let go of his clenched hands. The three masters and servants were immediately thrown away. I felt a surge in my chest, and then spit out a big mouthful of dirty blood with a 'wow' on the spot, and the dirty blood splashed and instantly dyed the snow in front of the courtyard red.

Xiao Yuanzi and Xiao Anzi cried out immediately, and the two of them wept unceasingly. They crawled and hurried forward a few steps to help Shen Jun stand up slowly.The eight people on the fourth aunt's party obviously didn't expect such a situation to happen, and they were all stunned on the spot.

Supported by left and right sides, Shen Jun stood up with difficulty, the corners of his mouth were still bloodshot, he held his chest to relieve the pain, and said in a hoarse voice: "It seems that Fourth Aunt is determined to snatch her away from me today." gone?"

The fourth aunt was still in shock, even her calves were still a little weak, now being supported by the maidservants, she felt terrified when she thought of Shen Jun's sudden attack just now. Looking at the bright red blood stains on the ground, the fourth aunt felt a little bit scruples.

"People, people, I definitely have to arrest them." The fourth aunt panted too much, half annoyed and half scared, "If you get all the stolen goods, it means that the reason for the end of the world is on my side after all! If it is true If you are not convinced, you can go to the master to argue, but I want to see if the master is on your side or on my side!"

Shen Jun wanted to talk to old man Sun about why you thought I was a pig!

"I'm afraid my father can't decide this matter!" Shen Jun said with a gloomy face, "Fourth Aunt, let me tell you clearly today, these rice noodles and snacks are two pieces of jewelry that I became my mother last night. The owner of the 'Qian Lai Pawnshop' can testify to this."

Fourth Aunt's complexion changed slightly. Based on her understanding of the young master of the Sun family, the other party should not deliberately tell such a lie.

Shen Jun looked at Xiao Dezi standing in the distance with a solemn face, and continued: "As for how this dog slave framed the master, and how he maliciously framed Xiao Anzi, I'm afraid I have to go to the county government office to find out about it." Only the county magistrate can make a judgment in person!"

The fourth aunt was stunned immediately. She didn't expect that it was just a small matter of theft in the mansion, which could be handled privately. Shen Jun would actually want to go to the county magistrate to settle the case, and he was full of confidence.She inevitably had some doubts about Xiao Dezi in her heart, and when the fourth aunt looked at Xiao Dezi with a scrutinizing gaze, the latter knelt down immediately with a 'plop'.

"Fourth Aunt, Eldest Young Master, please forgive me! This matter must not be sent to the government for investigation!" Xiao Dezi knelt in the snow tremblingly, sweating from his brow, "The little one was ordered by Mr. Treasury. That's why he accused Xiao Anzi of stealing the cloth from the warehouse, originally this matter had nothing to do with the young master or Xiao Anzi at all!"

The fourth aunt pointed at Xiao Dezi with trembling fingers, "You, you, you..."

Shen Jun looked at Xiao Dezi expressionlessly, as if he had already guessed the opponent's trick.He just listened to Xiao Dezi pouring out everything honestly like pouring beans.

"A few days ago, the warehouse ran short of a piece of high-quality silk and satin. The Mr. Treasury was afraid that the master would blame him if he found out, and he was unwilling to make up for the defect with his own money, so he ordered the little one to go to the fourth aunt and frame up that Xiao Anzi had stolen it."

Speaking of this, Xiao Dezi looked up at Shen Jun, then quickly lowered his head and said, "Mr. Kufang said, he said that Xiao Anzi had a case first, and Fourth Aunt Taiding would not doubt that this matter is false, and the young master has always Not to be favored by the master, if this is the case, the responsibility for the lack of cloth will inevitably fall on Xiao Anzi in the end...Mr. Kufang also promised to reward the little one with a tael of silver when things are done." After finishing speaking, Xiao Dezi shook his hand violently He began to slap himself over and over again, and said, "Damn the little one! Damn the little one! Damn the little one who has lost his mind, damn the little one!..."

The fourth aunt was so angry on the spot that she had nothing to say, raised her leg and kicked Xiao Dezi fiercely, kicking the latter to the ground in the snow and mud, and then turned around and wanted to leave.

"Fourth aunt, this matter is not over yet!" Shen Jun suddenly shouted loudly.

The fourth aunt paused suddenly, turned her head to look at Shen Jun with a pale face, and said angrily: "Since this person framed it, I will hand over Xiao Dezi to you, what else do you want!"

Shen Jun sneered, stepped forward slowly, and said, "I've said it before, the master can't handle this matter, neither can you and I! You have to go to the county government to find an official to comment on it."

The fourth aunt took a few steps back and said, "It's just a trivial matter, why..."

"Fourth Aunt is afraid that I have misunderstood, I am not referring to the trivial matter of missing cloth." Shen Jun said again.

The fourth aunt frowned, her face was extremely ugly, "Ming people don't speak dark words, what on earth are you trying to say!"

Shen Jun pointed to the shocking pool of blood in the snow, and said with a sneer: "In broad daylight, the sky is bright, the fourth concubine led a crowd to my residence to pick quarrels and make trouble, and hurt me until I vomited blood. So kind!"

The fourth aunt's complexion changed immediately, but when she saw Shen Jun approaching every step of the way, she said coldly: "This matter means that the truth is on my side after all, even if I am in this Sun Mansion He is well-loved by others, but he is still the young master of the Sun family in the eyes of outsiders! How could he be bullied and seriously injured by you!"

The fourth aunt suddenly showed a flustered expression, and the three men and three women beside her also looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to meet Shen Jun's angry gaze.I only heard Shen Jun say again: "You are just a mere fourth concubine. I respect you and call you 'aunt', but you don't have half the virtue of 'aunt'. Someone caused me to fall to the ground and vomit blood, but such a poisonous woman is relying on the favor of the master to be so domineering, even if I file a lawsuit in front of the county magistrate hall, I think the magistrate will avenge my grievances!"

"At that time, the fourth aunt will hang herself in wooden shackles and iron chains, and she will have to be paraded through the streets by the yamen servants. It is my father who saved the Sun family's face and rescued you from being paraded through the prison. I will send you out of the house with a letter of divorce!"

After listening to Shen Jun's long threatening words, the fourth aunt couldn't even stand still.Pulling the handmaid's arm beside her, she said with fear on her face, "You, what do you want!"

"Fourth aunt is a smart person." Shen Jun eased his gloomy expression, "Family ugliness should not be publicized. If this matter can be resolved properly, the child will go to the government office if he doesn't want to, so as not to embarrass the family, but you I came here in the early morning, ransacked boxes and damaged a lot of valuable things in my small courtyard, and spilled a lot of rice noodles and "Moguanlou" snacks, and I had to ask a doctor to treat me even if I was seriously injured. It takes a lot of silver taels..."

The fourth aunt's complexion changed again and again, as if she had opened a colorful shop. Hearing this, she quickly grabbed the money bag from the maid's arms, and threw it to Shen Jun's feet like holding a hot potato. .

"This dilapidated house is nothing more than broken pots and bowls. There are some valuable things! There are 25 taels of silver in this purse, which is more than enough to compensate you for all your losses!"

After all, the fourth aunt turned her head and ran out, and she disappeared after a while, and the servants and maids behind her hurriedly fled out like a swarm of bees.

Shen Jun leaned over and picked up the money bag, weighed it in his hand, and then shouted loudly towards the gate of the courtyard, "Si Yiniang, go slowly, remember to come and play next time when you have time~"

There was a sound of "plop" falling outside the courtyard wall, and I heard the servants and maids exclaiming, followed by the scolding sound of the fourth aunt, and after a while, even the sound of reprimanding became quieter Only then did Shen Jun confirm that the seven people had finally left.

Looking back at Xiao Dezi who was still kneeling in the snow in the small courtyard and slapping himself, Shen Jun coldly shouted, "Get out of here! You're dirtying my young master's eyes by staying here!"

Hearing this, the panic-stricken Xiao Dezi hurriedly scrambled and ran straight to the outside of the courtyard...

☆, gram parent gram mother

On the same day, Xiao Yuanzi ran to Shuizhou Street in a panic again and invited Dr. Lin to the small courtyard to see Shen Jun.Fortunately, Shen Jun was fine. The mouthful of dirty blood that he spit out earlier brought out the anger and depression that had been smoldering in his body for many years. Once it was excreted from the body, it would be of great benefit to the body.In the end, Dr. Lin just added two tonic herbs on top of the prescription he prescribed the night before and left with the consultation fee.

The three masters and servants suffered such a humiliation for no reason, but in the end they were all returned in full. Although they sprinkled some rice noodles and snacks and caused a false alarm, they also made a lot of money in the end. , so careful calculation is not a loss.

However, Shen Jun always felt unhappy in his heart.

At this moment, Shen Jun is sitting on the edge of the bed, holding the hand stove left by the fourth aunt to keep warm in his hand, watching Xiao Yuanzi and Xiao Anzi happily cooking and cooking, but he is thinking in his heart how to completely Reverse the unfavorable situation you are in now.

The so-called untie the bell requires the person who tied the bell. If you want to make a big turnaround in the Sun Mansion, the most urgent thing is to change the Sun family's master's impression of yourself. I don't want to see him, the young master of the Sun family, so much.

Shen Jun had many guesses about the original owner of this body in his heart.

For example, the original owner is addicted to gambling?But judging from the fact that the original owner would rather die than sell the dead mother's jewelry for medical treatment, it seems that it does not seem to be a gambler's heart. Not to mention these two pieces of broken jewelry.

Or, the original owner's character is too extreme and rebellious, so he can't deal with the master of the Sun family?But this seems to be debatable one or two.If it is true that the eldest young master of the Sun family is the kind of bully and dandy, he will punch and kick anyone who is upset, so it is too late for the people in the mansion to fear him, so how can he be reduced to the point where even the lower servants in the mansion are afraid of him? Dare to frame the situation.

Or maybe the master of the Sun family hates the original wife, and even treats the original owner with cold eyes?What lawsuits did the original owner get into?Doing business caused the Sun family to lose a lot of money? ...

Shen Jun thought about it left and right but couldn't come up with a clue. Suddenly, the corner of his eye flashed, and then the corner of his mouth slightly raised, and he immediately waved to Xiao Anzi who was beside him.

"Anzi, come here." Shen Jun called out.

"Okay!" Xiao Anzi responded crisply, and immediately trotted a few steps to Shen Jun, and asked with big bright eyes, "Eldest young master, do you have any orders?"

Shen Jun smiled, "Master, I feel a little bored, how about chatting with me?"

"Chat... okay..." Xiao Anzi scratched his hair, and said with a slightly embarrassed expression, "but I'm afraid I can't talk because of my stupid mouth..."

Hearing this, Xiao Yuanzi, who was cooking a fire not far away, suddenly gave a 'poof' smile, and said with a teasing smile: "So you little devil still knows that you are stupid? It's so rare!"

"You..." Xiao Anzi glared at Xiao Yuanzi with an angry look, and for a moment, curled his lips and lowered his head to look at his young master.

Shen Junyang pointed at the broken wooden stool next to him with his chin, and said with a smile: "It's okay, just tell me what big and small things have happened in our house recently, and it's right to relieve my boredom."

Xiao Anzi's eyes lit up immediately, and he immediately replied crisply, "Okay." After finishing speaking, he quickly moved the broken wooden stool and sat down in front of Shen Jun.

"Where does Eldest Young Master want to hear?" Xiao Anzi had a gossiping expression on his face, "How about... the younger one, let's start with Fourth Aunt?"

Seeing that Shen Jun nodded slightly calmly, Xiao Anzi hurriedly moved the small stool forward again, and then said in a crisp voice: "Didn't Fourth Aunt ask for a shop for Sixth Young Master in front of Master, little one?" I heard that the shop has been losing money for three months in a row, and it is said that our master is quite dissatisfied."

"Oh, that's right..." Shen Jun secretly remembered that there was someone like the Sixth Young Master, but he deliberately dragged out his voice, and said, "Then the sixth one..."

Xiao Anzi immediately grabbed the conversation and said, "Sixth young master has a brain problem and can't even take care of himself, so how can he know how to run a business! It's not that the fourth aunt hired someone to help take care of it, but the fourth aunt is a wife. Those who don’t understand these twists and turns are full of tricks and thieves, so it’s no wonder that the shop doesn’t lose money!”

It turns out that the sixth young master of the Sun family is actually a big fool!

Surprised for a while, Shen Jun nodded slightly, but the expression on his face remained unchanged.

Xiao Anzi continued as if presenting a treasure: "However, the second and fourth young masters in Dongyuan are as happy as ever, except for the pillow breeze from the second wife, the two young masters have really been solid and devoted to our Sun family recently. I earned a lot of face in Changyang City."

In Changyang City, the second and fourth child of Dongyuan, the son of the second wife, and the treasure of Old Man Sun's heart.

Shen Jun remembered all of these in his heart, and then he asked, seemingly inadvertently: "Why does the second and fourth child earn face for the family, please tell me briefly."

Hearing this, Xiao Anzi seemed to hesitate for a moment, blinked his big eyes and looked at Shen Jun cautiously, and said in a low voice: "Young Master, don't you always get annoyed by hearing about things in Dongyuan... What? Suddenly today..."

It turns out that the young master of the Sun family has conflicts with the second wife of Dongyuan!

Shen Jun suddenly understood, raised his hand and pinched Xiao Anzi's face, the latter's expression was obviously taken aback, and Shen Jun said indifferently: "Since it's a matter of giving the family face, it's okay for me to listen to it, young master. .”

"Oh, okay!" Xiao Anzi seemed to have regained his composure, and immediately moved a wooden stool closer to Shen Jun, and said, "The second young master recently set up a textile factory in Yuntai County for the master. , I heard that the business is very prosperous." After a pause, he continued, "This is the first time that the second young master has gone out to work alone, and this matter has spread to our Changyang County, which will give our master a lot of face!"

Hearing this, Shen Jun was able to conclude that the Sun family should be a family of merchants, and that the second young master of the Sun family could achieve such achievements, obviously because the old man Sun intended to train the second son Sun to be the next successor of the Sun family.Thinking of this, Shen Jun couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Then what did the fourth son do to make him look good?" Shen Jun asked.

Xiao Anzi looked puzzled, "Fourth young master? Fourth young master Jin Qiujie passed the Juren examination, and he was the first one in our Sun family to obtain a high degree of fame. For this reason, the master threw a feast and celebrated with the whole house for three days and three nights. How about you, young master?" Have you forgotten even this?"

Shen Jun froze for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

At this time, Xiao Yuanzi had just finished cooking, and moved into the wing room with a broken urn and bowl. Hearing this, he took over the conversation and scolded, "The young master is asking you what happened in the house recently, and you have to take three , Let me tell you about what happened four months ago, and dare to say that the young master is forgetful, how can it be so reasonable?"

Xiao Anzi chuckled, "Oh, so I misunderstood... There's really nothing new about the fourth young master of the next month, but I heard that the fourth young master went to the 'Yueying Building' more diligently .”

After finishing speaking, Xiao Anzi quickly got up and helped Xiao Yuanzi arrange the meals, and then worked together to move the broken table to the side of the bed, so that it was convenient for his master to eat.

While filling Shen Jun with food and vegetables, Xiao Anzi said, "If you ask me, no matter how good the second and fourth young masters in Dongyuan are, they can't compare to our first young master. In terms of appearance, character, and talent, which one of them is the same?" Compared with the young master, it's not because the master is partial!"

Shen Jun pretended to be helpless and sighed, "Oh, it's only to blame..." After a pause, Shen Jun suddenly kept silent, in fact, it was because Shen Jun didn't know the inside story, so he just wanted to speak. Youzhi intentionally only waited for Xiao Anzi to take the words.

Sure enough, Xiao Anzi took the food that Xiao Anzi had packed and delivered it to Shen Jun respectfully. Hearing this, he immediately said crisply: "If you want to blame, you can only blame the damn fortune teller. If it wasn't for that bastard who falsely accused Eldest young master beats father and mother, master he..."

"Anzi!"

Xiao Yuanzi's expression changed on the spot, and he hurriedly interrupted.Xiao Anzi, who was belatedly aware of it, also suddenly reacted, and the two of them turned their heads to look at Shen Jun anxiously at the same time, and the atmosphere in the room seemed to freeze instantly.

Shen Jun thought to himself, "So that's how it is", and smiled, without showing any irritation.Picking up the chopsticks to pick up the rice, he changed the subject and asked again, "If there is nothing new about the Second Madam, then you can tell me about the situation of the Third Madam."

The two servants were obviously relieved, Xiao Anzi finally became honest this time, and stood at the table to eat quietly.Xiao Yuanzi on the side replied: "Nanyuan is still the same. Since the fifth young master died, the third lady has locked herself in Nanyuan all day and all night to recite Buddhist scriptures. It is rare to come out. Last night I wanted to ask the third lady to save her life." I couldn’t see it, but fortunately, Sister Qingli, who is beside the third lady, saved three taels of silver, so she invited Mr. Lin to save her life.”

Through such a detailed question and answer, Shen Jun finally got a general idea of ​​the family members of the Sun family: the fourth aunt is quite favored, and there is a silly son under her knee.The third aunt lost her son, and now that she devotes herself to the Buddha, she doesn't seem to be favored by old man Sun, and she can be regarded as a miserable person.The original owner of my own body was born in the main house of Old Man Sun, but he was disliked by the old man because the fortune teller ruled out his father and mother.As for the second concubine of the Sun family, she should be regarded as the most fateful among the four wives—not to mention the old man’s love, and the two sons under her knees are also promising, and counting according to the ranking of the four young masters of the Sun family, the Sun family should There are also two young ladies who must have been born to the second aunt too.

Summarizing all of these together, it is not difficult to see why he, the young master of the Sun family, has fallen to such a point, and what is even more troublesome is that the term "restraining father and mother" is really too vicious .

Shen Jun naturally didn't believe in the rhetoric of the fortune teller, but the fact is that the principal of the Sun family had passed away for many years, and the old man Sun must also have no doubts about the verdict of the young master of the Sun family that he 'keeps his father and his mother'. Jun's attempt to change his situation in the Sun Mansion was a blow to his head—Shen Jun firmly believed that in order to please Master Sun, he could change anything, but he could not change the fate attributes inherent in this background, especially In this feudal era where superstition prevailed, the fate of "restraining father and mother" was like a death sentence, which was impartial and ruthlessly pressed on him, and there was no room for the slightest chance of turning over!

☆, the fourth son of the county master's family

Realizing that there is no hope of turning over, Shen Jun was really depressed, thinking that since his father and father who are already rich can't count on him, then he can only rely on his own ability to survive in the future.

The colder the colder the moon, the colder it is in the year. A few days later, the people of Changyang City ushered in the second heavy snowfall since the beginning of winter.

The first snow has not yet melted and the new snow is added again. The whole city of Changyang is as bloated as if wrapped in a thick layer of snow quilt.And under the curtain of snow, the old year quietly passed away, and the new year came one after another.It is the beginning of a new year, and thousands of families are happy and sad.

This year's New Year's Eve will probably be the most unforgettable time in Shen Jun's life.Guarding a dilapidated courtyard, followed by two young men, bought half a catty of chopped pork head meat in sauce, eight palm-sized cooking cakes, some preserved fruit and a small bag of gummies, although it was still relatively simple, but The three masters and servants also had a good year happily.

Years later, Shen Jun's body was almost in good shape, so he always thought that it was time for him to walk out of this broken courtyard and see what the outside world was like. At least, he had to try to figure out what time it was now. Which generation, it is better to make some plans for the future.

In the evening of that day, the three master and servant rummaged through boxes and cabinets to find three neat clothes to change into. After locking the gate of the courtyard, they happily left the house together.

Let's not talk about the different worlds inside and outside the mansion, the difference between the inside and outside of the small courtyard is already as big as sky and earth.But only separated by a wall, the broken courtyard is full of desolation, a desolate and deserted scene; outside the small courtyard, there are lights and festoons everywhere, full of the atmosphere of the New Year.

But on the Zhengdan paper with a red background, festive couplets and congratulatory words are written on it, and there are also peach charm boards with the mighty portraits of the two gods "Shen Tu" and "Yu Lei" hanging in front of the door, as well as a symbol of good luck in the new year. The cypress persimmons and orange dendrobiums, or the golden flower banners hanging on the forehead, the Tusu bag that exudes the smell of medicine and is used to ward off evil spirits and avoid evil, and the New Year pictures posted everywhere, what kind of angry eyes? Zhong Kui with peach wood sword in his hand, mighty and domineering tiger head with the word "King" on his head, or the mythical beast Suan Ni wrapped in smoke and so on.

The freshness of the eyes made Shen Jun dizzy, just like that Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, he only wished that he could have six eyes on the spot so that he could see the huge Sun Mansion thoroughly, and Shen Jun naturally didn't bother to bother Paying no attention to the strange eyes and whispers cast by the maidservants and servants along the way, I just led Xiao Yuanzi and Xiao Anzi straight out of the mansion with hands behind their backs, talking and laughing.

It took about an incense stick before the three masters and servants finally reached the gate of the Sun Mansion.The moment he stepped out of the gate of the Sun Mansion, Shen Jun couldn't help sighing in his heart: This Sun Mansion is really big!The Sun family is really rich!But it has nothing to do with Lao Tzu's half a dime, it's really f*cking to be depressed to death...

Looking back at the wealthy and happy Sun Mansion, Shen Jun shook his head, and greeted the two little followers with a wry smile, "You two should tell me, what lively and fun places will there be in Changyang City after this year? "

"That's really a lot!" Xiao Anzi immediately counted with excitement, "For example, there is a Cuju competition at the horse racing field in the suburbs, and there will be a fireworks show near the City God's Temple in the city later, and Ning There is a night dance in the street, and I heard that there are several troupes competing in the third troupe of Nanfu Street Opera, and it is very lively tonight!"

Shen Jun smiled, "There are so many interesting places to go, where shall we go tonight?"

Xiao Yuanzi next to him immediately spoke up: "If you want to talk about it small, why don't we just go to the 'Goulan Night Market' today, it's not far from our house, and it's also a lively place, so there's no need to run away Ningguan Street is so far away."

Before Shen Jun could speak, Xiao Anzi on the side suddenly became a little unhappy, and hurriedly argued, "I've been to Goulan Night Market several times, what fun! Don't go!"

"Really not going?" Xiao Yuanzi chuckled, "Don't regret it, kid!"

Xiao Anzi blinked his big eyes with a puzzled look on his face.Shen Jun raised his hand and slapped Xiao Yuanzi on the back of the head, and scolded with a smile: "Don't make such a fuss here, is there anything new and interesting at the Goulan market tonight? Tell me quickly!"

Xiao Yuanzi raised his eyebrows and said mysteriously: "The young master is wise! There is a juggling troupe from outside Goulan recently. I heard that there are hat tricks, snake dances, ventriloquists, and illusions. Throwing a sip-sized wine glass into the sky so casually, hey! You can turn into a white dove in a blink of an eye, but it's amazing!"

Hearing this, Xiao Anzi, who was disgusted in every possible way before, suddenly turned yearning.There was also a bit of curiosity in Shen Jun's eyes.

Seeing Xiao Yuanzi paused, he said again: "It is said that tonight will be the last time. Tomorrow morning, the juggling troupe will have to get up and go to Yunxi, Lin County. Changyang City will tell us if they come or not." Not sure! Eldest young master, look..."

"Go, go!" Shen Jun waved his hand immediately, and walked forward, "Let's go to Goulan Market to watch juggling now!"

Xiao Yuanzi and Xiao Anzi also had joyful expressions on their faces. Seeing their master striding forward, they hastily stepped forward a few steps, pulling Shen Jun left and right to turn around.

Xiao Anzi: "Wrong, wrong, young master, you are going in the wrong direction!"

Xiao Yuanzi: "Exactly! Goulan Market is going to the east!"

Shen Jun: "...Ahahahaha, I need you to remind me of this, young master, of course I know! I deliberately teased you, ahahahaha..."

Shen Jun's head was suddenly filled with black lines...

It was said that it was not far from Sun's Mansion, but after that, it took about an incense stick of work for the three masters and servants to see the Goulan Night Market from a distance.Shen Jun excitedly followed the two young men towards the night market, and suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes running wildly not far away, Xiao Yuanzi and Xiao Anzi hurriedly dragged Shen Jun to the side of the road.

Shen Jun turned his head sideways to follow the prestige, and saw a dozen well-dressed young men galloping past on tall horses.The teenagers were all dressed in fancy attire, and they looked like they were not from ordinary families.While riding their horses and whipping their whips, all the teenagers were chatting and laughing about polo, presumably they had just returned home after playing polo in the suburbs.

"Do you both recognize these dandies?" Shen Jun looked at the young men driving past, and suddenly asked out of curiosity.

"The first two are the second son of Li Yuan's family and the eldest son of Zhang Yuan's family." Xiao Yuanzi stretched his neck to look around, and said, "The third one seems to be the fourth son of the county grandpa's family."

Shen Jun actually wanted to know if there were the two precious sons of Mrs. Dongyuan among the group of dandy boys. Hearing this, Shen Jun couldn't help but look at the third boy more. The time has already run far away, no matter how hard I try, I can only vaguely see the side face of the fourth son of the county grandpa's family.

"Then whose family are the next few young masters?" Shen Jun asked again.

"The ones in the middle don't look too real, they are from the mansion of Yuanwai, and it's hard to say the younger ones." Xiao Yuanzi paused, "But the second last one should be the young master of Xuanjie Xiaowei's family. , the last young master and you belong to your family, Sun Boyi and Sun Xiaoguan."

"Lieutenant Xuanjie?" Shen Jun pondered immediately, "How big is the official position? How does it compare with our county magistrate?"

Hearing this, the two boys glanced at each other, as if they were surprised that their young master would ask such a sudden question.

Shen Jun moved his mind: "This young master just wants to test you two, to see if you both have memorized the trivial things that I usually teach you."

"Remember it, remember it!" Xiao Anzi hurriedly replied in a crisp voice, "Of course it is the official position of the county magistrate! This three-year-old child knows that the school captain is nothing more than a famous name, just a person who eats the emperor's food." It’s nothing more than a false position as a military officer, how can it be as powerful as the county magistrate in charge of the power of a city and county, young master, the younger one is right?”

Shen Jun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said with a smile: "There will be a reward for the correct answer. I will go to the night market later and the young master will buy you some fruit to eat."

Although Shen Jun couldn't remember his surname or name, he was still deeply impressed by what he saw and heard in the age of technological prosperity, so when he first came to this ancient night market thousands of years ago, In an instant, the visual and spiritual shock came to Shen Jun's face so that Shen Jun couldn't describe it in words.

But seeing the broad street full of tourists shoulder to shoulder, men, women, old and young with their families, it is like a boiling sea of ​​people. If they meet old acquaintances, they will hug each other and wish each other good New Year, and say a few words of auspiciousness Speaking, everyone has a somewhat festive look on their faces.

Both sides of the street are lined with teahouses, wine shops, noodle shops, walking shops, fruit shops, brothels, casinos and other places. Cooking cakes, snacks, New Year pictures, blessing posts and so on, shouting and hawking along the street one after another, but they are also melodious, just like singing, and they don't sound annoying like the tweeters of the 21st century.

With a few pennies, I bought three fruits for the three of the master and the servant to share food with, walked around the Goulan Night Market, and spent more than half an hour watching the performance of the juggling class. It was estimated that it was getting late and the night market was getting colder. The servant then begged Shen Jun to go back to the mansion earlier.

Although Shen Jun was also a little sleepy, he had no intention of going back to Sun's mansion immediately, and said: "Because it's rare to go out tonight, the three of us will go to the gate of the county government office."

The two young men were stunned for a moment, and Xiao Yuanzi calmed down and asked cautiously: "Eldest young master, are you planning to go to the county government to sue the fourth aunt?"

"The Chinese New Year's officials should all be on vacation, besides, when did you see me write a certificate?" Shen Jun smiled, "Don't think too much, this young master just wanders around, you two just lead the way that is."

The two young servants thought that the county government office was not a good place to go, and it was too late for ordinary people to avoid it, so why did my young master go to such a place for wandering?The two looked at each other again, but they didn't dare to express any objection, so they had to obediently lead the way for Shen Jun.

☆, want your life

Shen Junna didn't come to visit the county government office on a sudden whim, he just wanted to verify a certain guess in his heart.Although Shen Jun lacks historical knowledge, he also knows that almost most of the Chinese dynasties have implemented a very strict curfew system.The bustling scene of the Goulan Night Market tonight is definitely not just a short-lived exception during the special period of the new year. Obviously, this night market should exist for a long time. As far as Shen Jun knows, there is only one dynasty in the history of China that completely abolished the curfew. .

To verify Shen Jun's conjecture, the most convenient way is to ask the two young men around him, but the more reliable way is to go to the county government office to check the payment date of the announcement posted outside the government office.

The county government office is not too far from the Goulan Night Market, and the three masters and servants arrived about the time they should have a cup of tea.
