Yuan Shan's whole body was tense, staring at the bowl of medicine as if facing a formidable enemy, her little hands tightly clutching the bed sheet.
Jiang Weilin put the medicine on the table first, then turned around and sat down beside the bed with Yuan Shan in his arms, then picked it up again, "Drink it obediently."
He grabbed Yuanshan's hands and hugged him tightly, for fear that the little boy would kick the medicine over if he moved around.
"Drink the medicine obediently." Yuan Shan frowned and repeated.
Yuan Shan held the bowl with his little hands, raised his head and drank it in one gulp, then muttered, his eyes narrowed due to bitterness.
"Not bad." Jiang Weilin boasted casually, then picked up a small bun and stuffed it into Yuanshan's mouth.
In fact, the steamed buns cannot dispel the bitterness, and instead stain the meat with bitterness.
Yuan Shan looked at Jiang Weilin who was concentrating on feeding him, but didn't dare to say anything, and swallowed it silently.
After eating a few buns, his stomach was a little full. He hadn't eaten so well for a long time.
After Jiang Weilin fed Yuanshan, he cleaned up the leftovers. After eating, he saw the little boy crawling into his arms, pulling the clothes on his chest, "Brother, thank you brother."
Jiang Weilin patted his head, and simply lay down on the bed next to him to rest with the cub in his arms.
Lying on the bed after a long absence, Jiang Weilin couldn't help sighing, hugged Zai Zai in his arms, and pinched the other party's face with his hands in boredom.
Yuan Shan is also obedient, keeping silent.
"What kind of parents do you want?" Jiang Weilin asked suddenly, pinching and pinching.
Yuan Shan was stunned, "No."
"There is no need."
Yuan Shan shook her head wildly, and buried herself in his arms, "No, brother."
Jiang Weilin grabbed the back of his neck and tugged, thinking that the cub was still holding on tightly, so he had no choice but to run along the other's back comfortingly, "Just ask."
Yuan Shan didn't speak, just picked Jiang Weilin's clothes.
Jiang Weilin felt that he might have a fledgling complex, so he raised his hand to hold Zai Zai in his arms, closed his eyes and took a short rest.
After his breathing gradually stabilized, Yuan Shan moved.
He raised his small head, but he could only see Jiang Weilin's chin, so he stretched out his hand to grab Jiang Weilin's clothes and moved it up, put his small head on Jiang Weilin's neck, curled his hands and feet on the other's chest, and then seemed to feel at ease Slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Jiang Weilin has always been able to control his sleep time, and after lying down for nearly an hour, he opened his eyes.
After the rest, the body obviously recovered a lot.
And the cub lying on his chest was still asleep with his eyes closed.
Standing up lightly, tucking the quilt for Yuanshan, Jiang Weilin sat at the table drinking tea while looking at the street outside the window, thinking about the future.
From the current point of view, in this world, if you have nothing to do with cultivators, you can still live a very ordinary life.
Jiang Weilin doesn't have big ambitions, he just wants to find a place to live in peace.
As for Xiao Zai Zai, find a good foster home, after all, he will travel for a long time, it is not convenient to bring a child, and it is easy to make the other party suffer.
A three-year-old child also sleeps for a long time.
When Yuan Shan woke up, the sky outside had already turned fiery red, and it looked like the setting sun was about to set.
Jiang Weilin sat by the window like this, half of his cheeks were flushed by Huoshaoyun, under the light wind by the window, the young man's jet-black hair was casually scattered on his shoulders.
A pair of eyes, half-closed lazily, can almost meet the adult Pian Pian's appearance.
His whole body seemed to be permeated with a sense of dissociation that was incompatible with this world. For no reason, it made people feel that he seemed to disappear in the next moment.
This is what Yuan Shan saw when he opened his eyes.
After feeling the cold around him, the fear gradually dissipated, Yuan Shan crawled out of bed, ran to Jiang Weilin's side, and grabbed Jiang Weilin's knee, "Brother."
"Are you awake?" Jiang Weilin casually stroked his fluffy half-long hair.
The sense of dissociation in his body gradually dissipated, and the boy seemed to have truly fallen into this world.
Yuan Shan hugged his knee and nodded.
"You've slept long enough, you can go straight to dinner." Jiang Weilin bent down and picked up the cub, got up and walked to the door, Yuan Shan quietly hugged his neck and lay on his shoulder.
Towards the evening, the inn became much more lively, and people came in one after another and sat down at the round table, calling Xiao Er to order food.
Jiang Weilin chose a corner location, near the window, very quiet.
Seeing him sit down, Xiao Er walked over with great insight, "Guest officer, what do you want to eat?"
Jiang Weilin looked at the cub in his arms, "What do you want to eat?"
Yuan Shan glanced at Xiao Er blankly, "Baozi."
"Add a few signature dishes, and add a steamed stuffed bun." Jiang Weilin turned Yuanshan upside down and put it on his lap, so that the little boy could lie down in front of the table.
Yuan Shan obediently hugged Jiang Weilin's forearm, motionless, only shaking his feet occasionally.
While waiting for the food, Jiang Weilin was pinching Yuanshan's skinny little hand and playing with it boredly, when suddenly there was a discussion in his ears.
"Hey, you heard that Qiantianmen will recruit disciples after a while."
"But... is it the sect of the immortal?"
"Yes! I heard that they use a stone to test aptitude. If the aptitude is good, you can enter the sect to learn fairy arts!"
"You want your own children to go?"
"Of course! The money is ready! I heard that even if you have poor qualifications, you can still be an outer disciple if you pay a lot of money."
The two men next to him were talking excitedly, and if you listen carefully, you will find that they are not the only ones talking about it.
Jiang Weilin's movements of pinching Yuanshan's small hand paused slightly, he thought that cultivating immortals would be far away for ordinary people, but now it seems...it's not the case.
The mind that had been living a stable life was shaken a little.
If there is a barrier between the cultivator and the mortals, he will naturally not toss, but if the barrier will open a hole.
This not only means that he can get in touch with practice that he has never touched before, but also means that if ordinary people are unlucky, they will also be involved by immortal cultivators.
Jiang Weilin frowned slightly.
Suddenly, a person came and interjected between the two of them who were discussing: "Aren't you looking for distance?"
"Brother Zhang, you are here, sit down quickly."
The man called Brother Zhang lowered his voice, "Do you know that there is a new sect who wants to recruit disciples here?"
"New school? Come here?"
"Yes, it's called Kuidi Sect. It's a newly established fairy gate. It will send people to our town to recruit disciples tomorrow morning."
"Will this newly formed fairy gate..."
The man who called Brother Zhang gave him a hard look, "Which sect didn't start? What's more, the head of the sect has supreme magic power. If you enter now, you might be reused!"
"That's right, what Brother Zhang said makes sense, then the recruitment tomorrow morning..."
"Beside the city gate, there will be immortals coming at Maoshi tomorrow morning. We need to be early and prepare 50 taels of silver."
"50 taels!" The man couldn't help exclaiming in a low voice, "Is 50 taels enough to get in?"
"What a dream!" Brother Zhang gave him a smack on the forehead, "50 taels is just the cost of the test."
"What... what, it's so expensive."
"How expensive! If you are selected, your descendants will become immortals!"
"...Brother Zhang said so."
Brother Zhang nodded his head, "Although immortals can't meddle in our mortal affairs, immortals still have to take care of their relatives, friends and children. As long as they become immortals, their families will definitely be taken care of.
I have already prepared 200 taels of silver. If my child is not qualified enough, I will let him enter the outer door even if I spend more. "
The men glanced at each other, the 200 taels of silver was probably borrowed from the people around them. How could ordinary people give so much money.
But, I am afraid that it will be difficult at 200 taels.
Jiang Weilin listened silently to the conversation of the people behind him, his downcast eyes cast a shadow under his eyes.
Qiantianzong, Kuidimen...
Tomorrow morning Maoshi......
"Guest officer, the dishes are here." Xiao Er came with a big plate, put the dishes on the table, and then turned to go to the next table.
Jiang Weilin picked up the chopsticks and picked up a few chopsticks to stuff Yuan Shan's mouth with meat, and within a few strokes, he stuffed Yuan Shan's cheeks to the brim, and the little boy dragged his cheeks with both hands to chew bit by bit.
Jiang Weilin ate some food absent-mindedly, and the guests at the table next to him didn't say anything more, laughing and talking about some gossip among the neighbors.
Why is there such a beautiful woman in the small courtyard in the east.
The rich businessman of the Li family found a woman behind his wife's back.
"Hey, if you want me to say, this girl from Li Fu's family is a bit fierce, but her adoptive brother is a scholar who may not be able to win the exam, and her own brother is also rich. If I hold it before it's too late, how can I have the courage to find it? woman."
"Hahahaha, you are as poor as you when you are a big businessman..."
Jiang Weilin didn't listen to what was said later, he hugged Zai Zai and ate, and when Zai Zai swallowed the stuff, he stuffed him with some more.
Yuan Shan hasn't eaten these good things for a long time, so she sits obediently and eats whatever is stuffed.
It took about the same time to burn incense, leaving a few empty plates, Jiang Weilin went upstairs again with Yuanshan in his arms.
They didn't know, the moment they first went up.
Three men stepped in from the door, one was fat but had a decent appearance, the other two, one was wearing servant's clothes and the other was patched.
"My lord, sit here and sit here." The man wearing a patched body was the man who murmured 'thief' to Jiang Weilin in the medical hall this morning, and he carefully opened the chair for the slightly fat one, After the other party sat down, he immediately called the mistress.
"Little Er, come here!"
After the slightly chubby man sat down, the surrounding discussions became much quieter.
"Hey, isn't this Li Fu?"
"How did he come here?"
"I heard that the woman he is looking for lives here."
"Tsk, that's really bold. I heard that I only sneaked one person before, but this time I brought two people with me. He is really not afraid of being beaten by his brother-in-law."
"Could it be that he has made a lot of money recently, richer than his wife's family?"
"Maybe so. If you have money, you will have confidence."
Seeing that it was Li Fu, Xiao Er immediately walked over, "Hey, sir, you are here, what do you want to order today?"
"Just serve some of the signature dishes." Li Fu waved his hand and said indifferently.
The man with the patch was Liu Fan, who nodded and bowed beside Li Fu and greeted him, "My lord, Chun Sanniang has changed to a small courtyard these days and has already settled there."
Li Fu took a sip of the tea on the table, "It's almost time to decide, these days make it difficult for her to hide."
"Yes, yes, only a gentle, virtuous and beautiful woman like Chun Sanniang is worthy of you, my lord."
Li Fu seemed to have settled his mind, with a happy expression on his face.
Seeing this, Liu Fan swallowed his saliva, and after thinking about it for a while, he said slowly: "My lord, I want to speak bluntly."
Li Fu frowned, and glanced at him, "Say it."
Liu Fan lowered his body, glanced at the attendant next to him, and said in a low voice: "Master, Chun Sanniang misses you day and night, and even knits a lot of things for you, looking forward to your coming every day, and your family That one, but she is so disrespectful to you every day, isn't it because she has two good brothers?
Now Chun Sanniang's elder brother also..."
"Chun Sanniang asked you to tell me." Li Fu waved his hand to stop him, although Liu Fan said something wrong with his wife, but he didn't show any anger.
"Your Excellency is amazing." Liu Fan looked at his words and saw that he was still in a good mood, so he hurriedly said, "Chun Sanniang misses you."
The old god Li Fu picked up some appetizers and nodded, "I see."
Liu Fan bowed his head and rubbed his hands, "My lord..."
Li Fu knew what he meant, and threw a few copper coins casually, "Take it and take it."
Looking at the few copper coins on the table, Liu Fan's face collapsed, but he quickly restrained his expression and respectfully handed over the copper coins to his subordinates, "Thank you, sir."
While smiling, he cursed at being stingy in his heart.
If it wasn't for Chun Sanniang's useless brother who suddenly had some spiritual roots, relying on his brother to instruct him, otherwise he would not do it.
This Chun Sanniang is a stingy one, she doesn't give anything, thinking that this rich businessman's concubine will be better, but unexpectedly she is also a stingy one.
Liu Fan kept slandering in his heart.
He knew Chun Sanniang a little bit. In order to meet her lover, she was also a rich businessman, but she was afraid of being discovered by the rich businessman's wife, so she often stayed away from home and rented a place. It can be seen that she was afraid of the rich businessman's wife. But in the past few days, I suddenly returned home and spent a lot of money on renovations, even the small yard was repaired.
Naturally, it wasn't that her family got rich, but that her elder brother had some kind of spiritual root, so he got into a sect by fawning over him.
Her family's money was given by other families to please her.
This elder brother is promising, Chun Sanniang also has confidence, this time she directly asked Liu Fan to bring Li Fu over.
Liu Fan thought it was a good job, after all, he is a wealthy businessman here, who would have thought that he would be so stingy...
Liu Fan showed disgust and impatience, but he didn't dare to offend Chun Sanniang, so he still waited by the side, cursing bad luck in his heart.
It's really unlucky today, I was tricked by a ten-year-old boy in the medical center in the morning, and I have to serve this stingy thing in the afternoon.
Liu Fan was extremely unhappy, but he could only smile when Li Fu looked over.
Not long after Li Fu sat down, the surroundings became lively again, and the sound of eating and drinking was endless.
-
Back upstairs.
Because of sleeping in the afternoon, Yuan Shan was very awake, holding Jiang Weilin's collar with his small hands, leaning against Jiang Weilin's shoulder with his soft face.
Jiang Weilin hugged the cub and walked to the window, pushed open the paper window, and the breeze from outside came in.
Now there are not many sunset glows, and the sky is getting dark.
Thinking of what he heard downstairs just now, he turned his head and looked towards the end of the street, which was the direction leading to the city gate.
At Maoshi tomorrow, there will be immortals coming here.
Jiang Weilin was thinking about something while running down Yuanshan's short black hair.
A test of 50 taels of silver, he certainly couldn't afford it, but he wanted to see what happened.
Maybe in the future, there will be that possibility.
If you go to see it, the crowd is crowded, and it may be inconvenient to bring Yuan Shan.
"Yuanshan." Jiang Weilin called softly.
However, Yuan Shan didn't respond to him immediately, instead, after Jiang Weilin said a second time, he raised his head as if startled.
It was as if he was completely unaware that he was being called.
Then he hurriedly said: "Brother, what's wrong with brother?"
This appearance... seems a little guilty.
Jiang Weilin narrowed his eyes.
Yuan Shan hugged his neck, stuck to his neck, and flattered him: "I didn't hear clearly just now, I'm sorry brother."
It's just because I called it the second time, so there's no need to apologize.
Jiang Weilin rubbed his head, thinking that the child might be a little sensitive.feeling.
But he turned to the business, "I'm going out tomorrow, can Yuan Shan do it in his room?"
Seeing that he didn't pursue it any further, Yuan Shan's immature face showed a relieved expression, and then he noticed his words, "Brother doesn't want me?"
"I'll be back in half a day."
Yuan Shan tightened her arms around his neck, as if she was a bit unwilling.
"Bring you something delicious." Jiang Weilin said in a soft tone.
Yuan Shan buried it on his shoulder, and after a while, he said softly: "Okay."
Seeing his answer, Jiang Weilin turned his head in a good mood and kissed Yuan Shan on the cheek.
Yuan Shan immediately felt embarrassed, pulled his collar and curled up in the opponent's arms.
At night, lie in the soft bedding.
Yuan Shan didn't know how long he hadn't felt better like this. After more than half a year of wandering and fighting with wild dogs of his own age, he almost forgot how stable his life was.
Until those people came, nothing was left.
Yuan Shan raised his eyes, his dark eyes in the dark night stared straight at the boy who closed his eyes and fell asleep.
elder brother……
The next day.
Jiang Weilin got up early and stuffed the corner of the quilt for Zai Zai who was still sleeping soundly on the bed.
He felt relieved about Yuanshan, he got along with him for a long time yesterday, and felt that this child seemed to be smarter than ordinary three-year-olds.
He will close the doors and windows later, so there shouldn't be any major problems.
Went downstairs to get some breakfast, Jiang Weilin left a piece of silver, and went downstairs with other things.
The sky outside was still bright, with the smell of early morning mist.
Usually at this point, the vendors have also set up their stalls, but the street is not too lively, but at this time, there are people coming and going, crowded to a certain direction.
Jiang Weilin followed the direction of the flow of people, the closer he got, the more crowded he felt, and slowly, he gradually saw a long queue.
"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, line up here for children to be tested, first check the silver and then line up." The officers and soldiers in the city directed at the side, apparently following the orders of the officials.
When Jiang Weilin approached, he was chased away.
"Go, go, children, don't come here to mess around."
Jiang Weilin took advantage of the situation to retreat a little, and squeezed forward a little bit along the edge of the line. He wanted to see what the so-called immortals and inspections looked like.
Unexpectedly, there were so many people, even if he was small, he couldn't squeeze in from the bottom, and was almost stepped on the ground. Seeing that it was impossible, Jiang Weilin had no choice but to back out and run around in a big circle around the crowd.
After being crowded for half a day, I finally got in and saw a little.
To be honest, a little disappointed.
It looks very ordinary.
When I met Song Qing and Liu Ruoxin yesterday, even at such a young age, there was a spirit in them.
And the person with drooping eyelids and listlessly saying 'pay the money first and then test', not only has no aura, but also looks like a peddler.
But because of his status, not only did the people around him not feel inappropriate, but they still respected him.
After watching for a while, Jiang Weilin withdrew from the crowd, ready to leave.
Before leaving, he thought of promising Yuan Shan to buy something to eat, so he went to the nearby stall to buy some sugar pills and sweet cakes.
On the other side, in the room.
After Jiang Weilin went out for a while, Yuan Shan woke up.
He rubbed his eyes dimly, and fumbled sideways with his skinny paws.
Start with a piece of ice cold.
Yuan Shan suddenly woke up and sat up quickly.
After a while, his consciousness came back, and he remembered that Jiang Weilin had gone out.
He moved his short hands and feet, and when he moved to the side of the bed, he found that there was a small chair carefully placed under it, allowing him to climb down.
Yuan Shan groaned and pulled the chair and climbed down. After washing up with a small cup next to the water basin, he went to eat the snacks on the chair.
Breakfast is rice cakes, and I am not afraid that it will affect the taste after being cold.
The rice cake tasted slightly sweet, with a touch of fluff, Yuan Shan squatted by the chair and ate it in small bites, moved his eyes from side to side, ran to the bedside and took a small handkerchief to wipe his hands.
After finishing these, he climbed back on the bed, obediently waiting for Jiang Weilin to come back.
It was noon, when the sun was shining from the top, and it was at its hottest.
Yuan Shan couldn't sit still anymore, he walked randomly in the room, and then turned his gaze to the closed door.
After a stick of incense.
Yuan Shan looked up at the closed door, the gap underneath was blocked by a piece of oil paper, which could prevent the door from being accidentally pushed open.
He knelt down and stretched out his fingers towards the oiled paper, but when he was about to touch it, he suddenly retracted it.
"Will my brother be angry?"
Yuan Shan was extremely contradictory, and wanted to go out to find his brother, but was afraid that his brother would be unhappy, so he touched the oil paper with his hand and withdrew it, and finally his back was unstable when he was in a trance, so he sat down on his buttocks and pulled out the oil paper.
The door is loose.
'Squeak—'
A gap slowly appeared.
Yuan Shan sat on the ground, couldn't help but tugged at the door with her small hand, and hesitantly opened it a little bit to poke her head out.
At this time, the messy voices from downstairs came in.
"Go find it! Where did my jade bracelet go!"
"Damn it, who stole my bracelet!" Li Fu's angry voice was very clear.
Violent footsteps came from the side of the corridor, Yuan Shan was about to close the door, but the next moment, the door was roughly pulled open.
A familiar face appeared before him.
It was Zhang Fan who caused the disturbance in the pharmacy yesterday.
Jiang Weilin put the medicine on the table first, then turned around and sat down beside the bed with Yuan Shan in his arms, then picked it up again, "Drink it obediently."
He grabbed Yuanshan's hands and hugged him tightly, for fear that the little boy would kick the medicine over if he moved around.
"Drink the medicine obediently." Yuan Shan frowned and repeated.
Yuan Shan held the bowl with his little hands, raised his head and drank it in one gulp, then muttered, his eyes narrowed due to bitterness.
"Not bad." Jiang Weilin boasted casually, then picked up a small bun and stuffed it into Yuanshan's mouth.
In fact, the steamed buns cannot dispel the bitterness, and instead stain the meat with bitterness.
Yuan Shan looked at Jiang Weilin who was concentrating on feeding him, but didn't dare to say anything, and swallowed it silently.
After eating a few buns, his stomach was a little full. He hadn't eaten so well for a long time.
After Jiang Weilin fed Yuanshan, he cleaned up the leftovers. After eating, he saw the little boy crawling into his arms, pulling the clothes on his chest, "Brother, thank you brother."
Jiang Weilin patted his head, and simply lay down on the bed next to him to rest with the cub in his arms.
Lying on the bed after a long absence, Jiang Weilin couldn't help sighing, hugged Zai Zai in his arms, and pinched the other party's face with his hands in boredom.
Yuan Shan is also obedient, keeping silent.
"What kind of parents do you want?" Jiang Weilin asked suddenly, pinching and pinching.
Yuan Shan was stunned, "No."
"There is no need."
Yuan Shan shook her head wildly, and buried herself in his arms, "No, brother."
Jiang Weilin grabbed the back of his neck and tugged, thinking that the cub was still holding on tightly, so he had no choice but to run along the other's back comfortingly, "Just ask."
Yuan Shan didn't speak, just picked Jiang Weilin's clothes.
Jiang Weilin felt that he might have a fledgling complex, so he raised his hand to hold Zai Zai in his arms, closed his eyes and took a short rest.
After his breathing gradually stabilized, Yuan Shan moved.
He raised his small head, but he could only see Jiang Weilin's chin, so he stretched out his hand to grab Jiang Weilin's clothes and moved it up, put his small head on Jiang Weilin's neck, curled his hands and feet on the other's chest, and then seemed to feel at ease Slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Jiang Weilin has always been able to control his sleep time, and after lying down for nearly an hour, he opened his eyes.

A three-year-old child also sleeps for a long time.
When Yuan Shan woke up, the sky outside had already turned fiery red, and it looked like the setting sun was about to set.

This is what Yuan Shan saw when he opened his eyes.
After feeling the cold around him, the fear gradually dissipated, Yuan Shan crawled out of bed, ran to Jiang Weilin's side, and grabbed Jiang Weilin's knee, "Brother."
"Are you awake?" Jiang Weilin casually stroked his fluffy half-long hair.
The sense of dissociation in his body gradually dissipated, and the boy seemed to have truly fallen into this world.
Yuan Shan hugged his knee and nodded.
"You've slept long enough, you can go straight to dinner." Jiang Weilin bent down and picked up the cub, got up and walked to the door, Yuan Shan quietly hugged his neck and lay on his shoulder.
Towards the evening, the inn became much more lively, and people came in one after another and sat down at the round table, calling Xiao Er to order food.

Seeing him sit down, Xiao Er walked over with great insight, "Guest officer, what do you want to eat?"
Jiang Weilin looked at the cub in his arms, "What do you want to eat?"
Yuan Shan glanced at Xiao Er blankly, "Baozi."
"Add a few signature dishes, and add a steamed stuffed bun." Jiang Weilin turned Yuanshan upside down and put it on his lap, so that the little boy could lie down in front of the table.
Yuan Shan obediently hugged Jiang Weilin's forearm, motionless, only shaking his feet occasionally.
While waiting for the food, Jiang Weilin was pinching Yuanshan's skinny little hand and playing with it boredly, when suddenly there was a discussion in his ears.

But, I am afraid that it will be difficult at 200 taels.

They didn't know, the moment they first went up.
Three men stepped in from the door, one was fat but had a decent appearance, the other two, one was wearing servant's clothes and the other was patched.
"My lord, sit here and sit here." The man wearing a patched body was the man who murmured 'thief' to Jiang Weilin in the medical hall this morning, and he carefully opened the chair for the slightly fat one, After the other party sat down, he immediately called the mistress.
"Little Er, come here!"
After the slightly chubby man sat down, the surrounding discussions became much quieter.
"Hey, isn't this Li Fu?"
"How did he come here?"
"I heard that the woman he is looking for lives here."
"Tsk, that's really bold. I heard that I only sneaked one person before, but this time I brought two people with me. He is really not afraid of being beaten by his brother-in-law."
"Could it be that he has made a lot of money recently, richer than his wife's family?"
"Maybe so. If you have money, you will have confidence."
Seeing that it was Li Fu, Xiao Er immediately walked over, "Hey, sir, you are here, what do you want to order today?"
"Just serve some of the signature dishes." Li Fu waved his hand and said indifferently.
The man with the patch was Liu Fan, who nodded and bowed beside Li Fu and greeted him, "My lord, Chun Sanniang has changed to a small courtyard these days and has already settled there."
Li Fu took a sip of the tea on the table, "It's almost time to decide, these days make it difficult for her to hide."
"Yes, yes, only a gentle, virtuous and beautiful woman like Chun Sanniang is worthy of you, my lord."
Li Fu seemed to have settled his mind, with a happy expression on his face.
Seeing this, Liu Fan swallowed his saliva, and after thinking about it for a while, he said slowly: "My lord, I want to speak bluntly."
Li Fu frowned, and glanced at him, "Say it."
Liu Fan lowered his body, glanced at the attendant next to him, and said in a low voice: "Master, Chun Sanniang misses you day and night, and even knits a lot of things for you, looking forward to your coming every day, and your family That one, but she is so disrespectful to you every day, isn't it because she has two good brothers?
Now Chun Sanniang's elder brother also..."
"Chun Sanniang asked you to tell me." Li Fu waved his hand to stop him, although Liu Fan said something wrong with his wife, but he didn't show any anger.
"Your Excellency is amazing." Liu Fan looked at his words and saw that he was still in a good mood, so he hurriedly said, "Chun Sanniang misses you."
The old god Li Fu picked up some appetizers and nodded, "I see."
Liu Fan bowed his head and rubbed his hands, "My lord..."
Li Fu knew what he meant, and threw a few copper coins casually, "Take it and take it."
Looking at the few copper coins on the table, Liu Fan's face collapsed, but he quickly restrained his expression and respectfully handed over the copper coins to his subordinates, "Thank you, sir."
While smiling, he cursed at being stingy in his heart.
If it wasn't for Chun Sanniang's useless brother who suddenly had some spiritual roots, relying on his brother to instruct him, otherwise he would not do it.
This Chun Sanniang is a stingy one, she doesn't give anything, thinking that this rich businessman's concubine will be better, but unexpectedly she is also a stingy one.
Liu Fan kept slandering in his heart.
He knew Chun Sanniang a little bit. In order to meet her lover, she was also a rich businessman, but she was afraid of being discovered by the rich businessman's wife, so she often stayed away from home and rented a place. It can be seen that she was afraid of the rich businessman's wife. But in the past few days, I suddenly returned home and spent a lot of money on renovations, even the small yard was repaired.
Naturally, it wasn't that her family got rich, but that her elder brother had some kind of spiritual root, so he got into a sect by fawning over him.
Her family's money was given by other families to please her.
This elder brother is promising, Chun Sanniang also has confidence, this time she directly asked Liu Fan to bring Li Fu over.
Liu Fan thought it was a good job, after all, he is a wealthy businessman here, who would have thought that he would be so stingy...
Liu Fan showed disgust and impatience, but he didn't dare to offend Chun Sanniang, so he still waited by the side, cursing bad luck in his heart.
It's really unlucky today, I was tricked by a ten-year-old boy in the medical center in the morning, and I have to serve this stingy thing in the afternoon.
Liu Fan was extremely unhappy, but he could only smile when Li Fu looked over.
Not long after Li Fu sat down, the surroundings became lively again, and the sound of eating and drinking was endless.
-
Back upstairs.
Because of sleeping in the afternoon, Yuan Shan was very awake, holding Jiang Weilin's collar with his small hands, leaning against Jiang Weilin's shoulder with his soft face.
Jiang Weilin hugged the cub and walked to the window, pushed open the paper window, and the breeze from outside came in.
Now there are not many sunset glows, and the sky is getting dark.
Thinking of what he heard downstairs just now, he turned his head and looked towards the end of the street, which was the direction leading to the city gate.
At Maoshi tomorrow, there will be immortals coming here.
Jiang Weilin was thinking about something while running down Yuanshan's short black hair.
A test of 50 taels of silver, he certainly couldn't afford it, but he wanted to see what happened.
Maybe in the future, there will be that possibility.
If you go to see it, the crowd is crowded, and it may be inconvenient to bring Yuan Shan.
"Yuanshan." Jiang Weilin called softly.
However, Yuan Shan didn't respond to him immediately, instead, after Jiang Weilin said a second time, he raised his head as if startled.
It was as if he was completely unaware that he was being called.
Then he hurriedly said: "Brother, what's wrong with brother?"
This appearance... seems a little guilty.
Jiang Weilin narrowed his eyes.
Yuan Shan hugged his neck, stuck to his neck, and flattered him: "I didn't hear clearly just now, I'm sorry brother."
It's just because I called it the second time, so there's no need to apologize.
Jiang Weilin rubbed his head, thinking that the child might be a little sensitive.feeling.
But he turned to the business, "I'm going out tomorrow, can Yuan Shan do it in his room?"
Seeing that he didn't pursue it any further, Yuan Shan's immature face showed a relieved expression, and then he noticed his words, "Brother doesn't want me?"
"I'll be back in half a day."
Yuan Shan tightened her arms around his neck, as if she was a bit unwilling.
"Bring you something delicious." Jiang Weilin said in a soft tone.
Yuan Shan buried it on his shoulder, and after a while, he said softly: "Okay."
Seeing his answer, Jiang Weilin turned his head in a good mood and kissed Yuan Shan on the cheek.
Yuan Shan immediately felt embarrassed, pulled his collar and curled up in the opponent's arms.
At night, lie in the soft bedding.
Yuan Shan didn't know how long he hadn't felt better like this. After more than half a year of wandering and fighting with wild dogs of his own age, he almost forgot how stable his life was.
Until those people came, nothing was left.
Yuan Shan raised his eyes, his dark eyes in the dark night stared straight at the boy who closed his eyes and fell asleep.
elder brother……
The next day.
Jiang Weilin got up early and stuffed the corner of the quilt for Zai Zai who was still sleeping soundly on the bed.
He felt relieved about Yuanshan, he got along with him for a long time yesterday, and felt that this child seemed to be smarter than ordinary three-year-olds.
He will close the doors and windows later, so there shouldn't be any major problems.
Went downstairs to get some breakfast, Jiang Weilin left a piece of silver, and went downstairs with other things.
The sky outside was still bright, with the smell of early morning mist.
Usually at this point, the vendors have also set up their stalls, but the street is not too lively, but at this time, there are people coming and going, crowded to a certain direction.
Jiang Weilin followed the direction of the flow of people, the closer he got, the more crowded he felt, and slowly, he gradually saw a long queue.
"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, line up here for children to be tested, first check the silver and then line up." The officers and soldiers in the city directed at the side, apparently following the orders of the officials.
When Jiang Weilin approached, he was chased away.
"Go, go, children, don't come here to mess around."
Jiang Weilin took advantage of the situation to retreat a little, and squeezed forward a little bit along the edge of the line. He wanted to see what the so-called immortals and inspections looked like.
Unexpectedly, there were so many people, even if he was small, he couldn't squeeze in from the bottom, and was almost stepped on the ground. Seeing that it was impossible, Jiang Weilin had no choice but to back out and run around in a big circle around the crowd.
After being crowded for half a day, I finally got in and saw a little.
To be honest, a little disappointed.
It looks very ordinary.
When I met Song Qing and Liu Ruoxin yesterday, even at such a young age, there was a spirit in them.
And the person with drooping eyelids and listlessly saying 'pay the money first and then test', not only has no aura, but also looks like a peddler.
But because of his status, not only did the people around him not feel inappropriate, but they still respected him.
After watching for a while, Jiang Weilin withdrew from the crowd, ready to leave.
Before leaving, he thought of promising Yuan Shan to buy something to eat, so he went to the nearby stall to buy some sugar pills and sweet cakes.
On the other side, in the room.
After Jiang Weilin went out for a while, Yuan Shan woke up.
He rubbed his eyes dimly, and fumbled sideways with his skinny paws.
Start with a piece of ice cold.
Yuan Shan suddenly woke up and sat up quickly.
After a while, his consciousness came back, and he remembered that Jiang Weilin had gone out.
He moved his short hands and feet, and when he moved to the side of the bed, he found that there was a small chair carefully placed under it, allowing him to climb down.
Yuan Shan groaned and pulled the chair and climbed down. After washing up with a small cup next to the water basin, he went to eat the snacks on the chair.
Breakfast is rice cakes, and I am not afraid that it will affect the taste after being cold.
The rice cake tasted slightly sweet, with a touch of fluff, Yuan Shan squatted by the chair and ate it in small bites, moved his eyes from side to side, ran to the bedside and took a small handkerchief to wipe his hands.
After finishing these, he climbed back on the bed, obediently waiting for Jiang Weilin to come back.
It was noon, when the sun was shining from the top, and it was at its hottest.
Yuan Shan couldn't sit still anymore, he walked randomly in the room, and then turned his gaze to the closed door.
After a stick of incense.
Yuan Shan looked up at the closed door, the gap underneath was blocked by a piece of oil paper, which could prevent the door from being accidentally pushed open.
He knelt down and stretched out his fingers towards the oiled paper, but when he was about to touch it, he suddenly retracted it.
"Will my brother be angry?"
Yuan Shan was extremely contradictory, and wanted to go out to find his brother, but was afraid that his brother would be unhappy, so he touched the oil paper with his hand and withdrew it, and finally his back was unstable when he was in a trance, so he sat down on his buttocks and pulled out the oil paper.
The door is loose.
'Squeak—'
A gap slowly appeared.
Yuan Shan sat on the ground, couldn't help but tugged at the door with her small hand, and hesitantly opened it a little bit to poke her head out.
At this time, the messy voices from downstairs came in.
"Go find it! Where did my jade bracelet go!"
"Damn it, who stole my bracelet!" Li Fu's angry voice was very clear.
Violent footsteps came from the side of the corridor, Yuan Shan was about to close the door, but the next moment, the door was roughly pulled open.
A familiar face appeared before him.
It was Zhang Fan who caused the disturbance in the pharmacy yesterday.
