When Chen Jing went to knock on the door, she seemed to wake up Pei Jinxin.

Pei Jinxin came to open the door lazily in a thin shirt, eyes half-closed, opened the door, then shuffled back and lay down on the bed.

The quilt was not pulled up, and the long gown fell to the ground, and he was lying on his side with his back to the door.

The sky is not yet clear, only a little moonlight penetrates into the room.

Chen Jing closed the door, lit the candle beside the bed, sat on the edge of the bed and pushed him.

"Mr. Pei Xiaolang." Chen Jing didn't push him twice, but Pei Jinxin didn't respond.

"Little Mr. Pei Lang." Chen Jing then called him softly and shook his shoulders.

Pei Jinxin was so disturbed that he slapped Chen Jing's hands away and shrank into the quilt.

"Didn't you come back last night? What did you come looking for me so early?" Pei Jinxin was woken up and couldn't sleep for a while. He kicked the quilt and said angrily.

Chen Jing and Pei Jinxin had originally booked a stay at the inn. Pei Jinxin knocked on Chen Jing's door last night and knew that he hadn't returned to the inn to stay.

Chen Jing yelled: "It's not that my elder brother took him away last night, and he didn't let me come to find you, so I had to sneak out."

The Chen family is a big family in the south of the Yangtze River. They have been officials for several generations, and the family rules are strict. It has been a little better since the Chen family started to do business in recent years.

The descendants of this generation include Chen Yu, Chen Jue, and Chen Jing. Chen Jing is the youngest, the late son of Chen's father, and the most favored in the family.

The family has always been accustomed to him. Chen Jing can let him do what he likes, and let him play the guqin if he likes to play the guqin.

Chen Jing had been learning the piano from the musicians invited by her family before. Later, when she was 12 years old, she ran out to worship Pei Jinxin's master Bu Le as a teacher, and thus got to know Pei Jinxin.

Chen Jing likes to play the piano, and Pei Jinxin is good at playing the piano, so Chen Jing often asks Pei Jinxin for advice.

Pei Jinxin gave unreserved guidance to Chen Jing, who likes guqin, and he saw more possibilities from Chen Jing.

Once back and forth, the two became friends.

Chen Jing is a son of an aristocratic family, unlike Pei Jinxin who travels with Bu Le to perform and earn money to learn art, he has to follow Bu Le to learn regardless of his family's opposition, and he can stay in Bu Le at that time and occasionally learn for a few months.

Pei Jinxin was also 12 years old at the time. He had been learning the piano from Bu Le for three years, and he had gained a little. He helped Chen Jing wholeheartedly when he asked for advice.

It was not until Bu Le passed away last year, and Chen Jing was 15 years old, that he began to talk about going out to see the world.

I want to go out to play, I want to see the landscape and women in the south of the Yangtze River, I want to play the piano with Pei Jinxin, and take Pei Jinxin to play together.

The Chen family naturally disagreed, and Chen Jing couldn't help but fiddle with it for half a year, and finally agreed.

Chen Yu had never liked quack musicians like Bu Le very much, nor did he like Pei Jinxin, nor did he like Chen Jing following Pei Jinxin as a musician to play the piano on stage.

If you can't control it, you can control it.

If you can't close it, you can go as long as you can.

Chen Jing also couldn't go out with Pei Jinxin all the time, and was caught by his brother after a few months, and ran out to find Pei Jinxin every few months.

"Then are you still going to the performance on the seventh day of junior high school?" Pei Jinxin asked him through the quilt.

Chen Yu's attitude was obvious. Pei Jinxin knew that Chen Yu didn't like him, and he knew why, but Pei Jinxin couldn't make Chen Yu change his mind about him.

Just like Chen Yu wanted to bring Chen Jing home, Pei Jinxin had no choice.

"Go!" Chen Jing stretched out his hand to tuck Pei Jinxin into the quilt, and explained seriously, "I didn't mean to disturb your sleep, I slipped out while my elder brother was out, and I have to eat, stay and go out these two days. Follow my brother... But don't worry, I'll coax him again, and I'll come to you in the morning of the seventh day of the lunar new year."

As Chen Jing was talking, his words were filled with complaints of dissatisfaction from time to time, as well as apologizing to Pei Jinxin for his elder brother's behavior, saying that he would get some more money from his brother, and that he would buy the best pastries in Yancheng every day and send them to the inn For Pei Jinxin, he has a lot to say.

Pei Jin Xinmeng's complexion under the quilt was painful, and he stretched out his hand and shook it: "Chen Jing, stop reading."

Chen Jing laughed and took Pei Jinxin's outstretched hand, and stuffed a silver ticket into his palm: "I'm going back. If you're bored, come find me at the Ruyi Inn in the east of the city."

Then he let go of his hand.

"Let's go." Pei Jinxin didn't want his money either, so he didn't hold it tight at all. As soon as Chen Jing let go, the bank note fell on the bed, "I'm not short of money."

Chen Jing pulled back the quilt and stuffed the silver ticket in: "Take it, the money in Qingyin Building is not enough, you have to buy more for food and drink."

Chen Jing was spoiled by her family since she was a child, and she never treated her badly in life.

I'm not you, Pei Jinxin thought to himself, sighed and turned over to look at Chen Jing, who was so noisy that he couldn't sleep: "It's really unnecessary, and I don't need to buy food to deliver, I probably have to go out for the past two days let's go."

"Oh, then I won't buy food when you go out to play... I gave this bank note anyway, so you can keep it." Young Master Chen didn't want to take back the money he gave, so he got up and said To go, "I'm leaving, you don't have to get up, I'll close the door for you."

Pei Jinxin didn't get up, and wrapped himself in the quilt again. After a while, he let go and said in a muffled voice, "Come here early on the seventh day."

Chen Jing opened the door, poked her head through the opened door and smiled back at him: "Don't worry."

When Chen Jing came, his genius was dim.

He stayed in the room for less than an hour before the sun rose and the morning light filled the room.

Pei Jinxin doesn't know what time Yu Zhiye wakes up on weekdays.

He sat quietly by the window for a while, and then began to think about where to go with Yu Zhiye.

Planning for the future, even a short one, always feels good when there is hope.

It was a little cold in the morning, but Pei Jinxin sat by the window thinking for a while, and his heart gradually warmed up.

Unable to sit still, he went back to the bed and rolled up the quilt, trying to research the most interesting things in the city.

He stayed in Yancheng for a few months at that time, and it was several years ago. I don't know how much Yancheng has changed now.

Pei Jinxin thought about it a lot.

This is also interesting, and that is also good. I wish they could stay in the city for another ten and a half months, and visit Yancheng as much as possible.

But regardless of whether Yu Zhiye can stay longer, Pei Jinxin himself cannot stay in Yancheng for that long.

He picked a time that was neither too early nor too late to find Yu Zhiye.

Yu Zhiye had already woken up at that time.

When Pei Jinxin went to look for him, he happened to meet Wang Shi coming out of his room. Pei Jinxin stopped Wang Shi before closing the door, and poked his head to look for Yu Zhiye.

"Can I come in?" Pei Jinxin saw Yu Zhiye who was sitting by the window arranging herbs.

When Yu Zhiye looked up and saw him, Pei Jinxin raised the corner of his mouth and smiled at him.

"Going out now?" Yu Zhiye asked.

"After a while?" Pei Jinxin stood up straight from the position of leaning on the door with his body leaning on his side, exposing his whole body at the door, "I want to watch you organize the herbs."

Pei Jinxin's long hair was tied up today, and he was wearing dark casual clothes with a black ribbon around his waist. The dark clothes made him look like a green pine.

He was also carrying something on his back, and the cloth belt was tied obliquely from the left shoulder to the right waist, making the waist more and more slender.

Seeing him standing at the door with a smile on his face, Yu Zhiye wanted to ask him why he was smiling so early in the morning, but for some reason, when he saw Pei Jinxin's smile, his heart seemed to be illuminated by the bright sunshine, so he didn't mind. asked.

His eyes stayed on Pei Jinxin's smile for a moment, and he said, "Come in."

There is only one small table and two small stools by the window.

After Pei Jinxin came in, he put the long package behind him on the wooden table in the middle of the square, and then walked over and opened the stool to sit opposite Yu Zhiye.

Yu Zhiye watched him put the thing down and asked, "What is that?"

"Qin." Pei Jinxin replied.

"Why did you bring the piano?" Yu Zhiye asked again, "You have a performance today?"

Pei Jinxin was taken aback by the question: "There is no performance."

He smiled again: "I'm used to it, thinking that I might have a chance to use it when I go out."

It seems that Pei Jinxin is really Aiqin.

Yu Zhiye didn't know what chance he would be able to use the piano when he went out: "Can it be used as a table mat when eating, or can it be used as a weapon when meeting bandits?"

"I can play a song for you when I'm free," Pei Jinxin looked at him with a smile, "Music is indispensable in life."

Yu Zhiye looked up at him: "You are quite right."

"Of course it is." Pei Jinxin still smiled.

As the sun rose, the temperature in the air quietly warmed up.

Pei Jinxin propped his head on his knuckles, watching Yu Zhiye make grass.

There is a small bamboo sieve on the table, and the dried herbs are in the sieve.

When the air-dried herbs are picked up, the falling debris flies and falls in the sun.

When Yu Zhiye was arranging things, Pei Jin didn't talk so intensively, but just observed carefully.

He knew most of the medicinal herbs, and he would ask Yu Zhiye what it was when he saw the ones he was interested in.

Yu Zhiye could tell that Pei Jinxin was in good health, but his vitality and blood seemed to be somewhat lacking—this was common among entertainers like them who traveled far and wide to survive.

Even so, Yu Zhiye was somewhat surprised that Pei Jinxin could recognize so many herbs.

"Oh, that's right," Pei Jinxin suddenly raised his head and asked Yu Zhiye with bright eyes, "Do you want to learn the piano?"

"I don't want to." Yu Zhiye sorted out the herbs and refused without raising his head.

"Hey..." Pei Jinxin responded with a drawn out tone, "You really don't want to learn?"

"No." Yu Zhiye replied.

"Okay." Pei Jinxin smiled.

After he finally finished tidying up, the two went to the east of the city together to buy shortbread with chili.

In fact, there is very little chili. It is cut into very thin slices and kneaded together with chives and flour. After frying, some black pepper and sesame seeds are sprinkled on it. It is spicy, crispy and sweet, and it is really delicious.

Holding the cakes and chewing, they walked aimlessly at the Yancheng morning market.

"Where are you going?" Yu Zhiye originally didn't want to stay longer, and he had no idea about the next itinerary.

"Going to Yancheng Mountain?" Pei Jinxin walked slowly and ate slowly, swallowing a mouthful before he said slowly, "Didn't you say that there is a lack of medicinal herbs?"

Yu Zhiye usually makes medicinal herbs into pills and ointments, which are more convenient to carry.

He did mention to Pei Jinxin before that the pill he wanted to make lacked an herb, but that wasn't an important thing.

As for Pei Jinxin's proposal to go up the mountain, Yu Zhiye did not resist the proposal.

"it is good."

The author has something to say:

Xiao Pei didn't get up and was woken up, he was a little angry, and didn't care about his messy clothes.

Arriving in front of Yu Zhiye: neatly dressed, with a friendly smile
