"At one or two o'clock, the weather is dry, be careful of the candle. โ

Two husbands, one holding a lantern and a gong and the other a gong, had a hazy half-moon above their heads, and the sound was gradually distant in the night.
Jin An just passed by two husbands.
It happened to be before the curfew at three o'clock to return to the inn where I lived.
The ancients had little nightlife, and a curfew was imposed at three o'clock, prohibiting people from going out on the streets, except for funerals, childbirth, and diseases.
And if he is caught by the villagers who patrol the night, he will be punished with a rod of 30 to 50 at the worst, and at the worst he will be punished on the spot.
One is divided into five points.
One o'clock is about twenty-four minutes.
One or two o'clock is equivalent to around eight o'clock in the evening.
Like in the costume TV series, it is unrealistic for someone to run to the Qinglou late at night. Qinglou also had to close its doors during curfew, so the literati arrived early and then closed the door and gave a.
Don't ask Jin An why he knows so much.
He also heard it from a friend.
The inn where Jin An lived, the shopkeeper was a famous pink and crispy, the charm was very beautiful, and the three thousand troubles were coiled up in the woman's bun, revealing a snow-white, delicate and delicate thirty-year-old woman with a fat neck.
Jin An heard the second child in the store talk about it, the shopkeeper is a widow, and she has ordered a baby since she was a child, but it was just the first day of the door, and before she entered the cave room, the groom was kidnapped by a group of thieves and tore up the ticket.
The shopkeeper is also a chaste martyr, although she only has the name of husband and wife but not the reality of husband and wife, but she has never remarried, and she is willing to tie up her woman's hair in a bun and be widowed.
When Jin An walked into the inn, he saw a big and a small, a jasper about sixteen years old, a girl less than six or seven years old, a pair of big and small sisters with similar facial features, and a pair of big and small sisters with similar facial features, chattering with the shopkeeper Zhang like a little sparrow.
The eldest sister has a bag on her back, and a sword in her hand, since she was a child, there has been a woman who walks the world on horseback and sword?
Sister Fanghua is sixteen, it is the mature age of Poguati, born with bright eyebrows and clear eyes, a face as exquisite as snow-white porcelain, delicate and fair skin, straight and tight legs, tall figure, slender waist, maybe because of the relationship between martial arts, so there is no excess fat, and the chest is full......
Belch.
It turned out to be a breast-wrapping girl.
The women who practice martial arts in the rivers and lakes have the habit of wrapping their chests to prevent the balance of swordsmanship from being disturbed by the dancing of the double cranes, and then they are caught by the flower thieves and the sword moves are flawed.
People are so beautiful.
It's just that his eyes are a little colder.
The iron sword in the hand makes the whole person look murderous, and he looks thousands of miles away from people.
As for the five or six-year-old ones, they look like snow-white porcelain dolls, and their big eyes are more delicate than wearing brown contact lenses.
At this time, there was a small servant in the store, holding a ball of baggage, and was about to pass by him, Jin An grabbed the little servant and asked curiously: "Your shopkeeper came to relatives today?"
Jin An is now half a famous person in Chang County, and the little guy didn't dare to slack off, so he paused and replied: "Listen to the two young ladies calling the shopkeeper's aunt, she should be the niece of the shopkeeper." โ
After speaking, the little guy secretly pulled Jin An aside, avoiding the shopkeeper's gaze, and then gossiped in a low voice:
"Those two young ladies are the daughters of Zhang County, and I only learned today that Zhang Countyling actually has two daughters. โ
"The eldest daughter has been frail and sickly since she was a child, and her body is weak, so she was sent to the mountains to practice martial arts by Zhang County since she was a child, and she has just returned to Chang County recently. As a result, as soon as he came back, he quarreled with Zhang Xianling. Then he ran away from home with his sister, because he forgot to bring a coil, he ran away bizarrely and walked to the shopkeeper, and then there was a scene in front of him. โ
"I didn't expect the shopkeeper to be Zhang Zhixian's compatriot blood sister, I usually don't look like it at all, and I have never heard anyone talk about it. โ
Jin An was also surprised after hearing this.
Thinking of Zhang County's order, who has dark and rough skin.
The siblings are not at all alike.
However, Jin An also noticed a detail, this Zhang County Order seems to be a cautious person.
is obviously the county magistrate and the biggest official in a county, but he is cautious and cautious, hiding his blood relatives so deeply, no one outside knows that Zhang Xianling also has an eldest daughter and a widow sister.
Jin An is not a person who likes to gossip about other people's privacy, after chatting, he noticed a cover in the hand of the little guy, and asked the little guy curiously What is this doing?
The little guy didn't hide it, and said truthfully: "Some time ago, a Taoist priest lived in our store. โ
"The Taoist priest was wearing a five-color Taoist robe, with a strange personality, very few words, and he was silent when he greeted him on weekdays, but half a month ago, the Taoist priest in the five-color Taoist robe suddenly said goodbye without checking out with us. โ
The shopkeeper thought that the Taoist priest would come back, so he kept the guest room for him, who knew that this was half a month without news, the store lost a lot of money, and the backyard also fed the goats who lived in with the Taoist priest every day, the goats had a very good appetite, gave it weeds, rotten vegetable leaves and did not eat, only carrots and peanuts, the shopkeeper was so angry that his face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth during the day. โ
"No, the shopkeeper saw that the Taoist priest would not come back, and estimated that the Taoist priest also knew that he couldn't pay back the money for half a month in the store, and he directly owed money and ran away, so the shopkeeper plans to stop waiting today, let me see if the Taoist priest has left anything valuable, and by the way, he slaughtered the fat and strong goat in the backyard, and made mutton hot pot and sheep whip hot pot back some capital. โ
"Just boiled the hot water and was about to slaughter the sheep, I happened to meet Zhang Xianling's eldest daughter who ran away from home with her little sister, and both came to the store to join the shopkeeper. โ
Taoist!
Five-colored robes?
Jin An was first surprised, and then overjoyed.
"Is that Taoist priest in a five-colored Taoist robe middle-aged with a pair of blue and white ten-square shoes on his feet?" Jin An asked hurriedly with a short breath.
The little guy looked at Jin An in surprise and asked Childe, how do you know?
Do you know this strange and stinky Taoist priest?
Jin An didn't answer, but smiled, Yuan!
He thought of the five-color Taoist robe's qi technique, and his skills, that is definitely a Taoist true master, a master with real skills, and by no means the kind of charlatan.
Thinking of the skills of the five-colored Taoist robe, Jin An's head became more and more hot.
"As for the items left by the Taoist priest, including the goat in the backyard, I will buy them, and the money owed by the Taoist priest will be paid by me. โ
Jin An is in a happy mood now.
He's not bad for money.
When the little guy heard this, he was also overjoyed, but he didn't dare to make a decision privately, so he said lightly, please wait a while, and then hurriedly ran to ask the shopkeeper.
Soon the little guy ran back again.
The shopkeeper agreed!
Jin An laughed, and took the burden in the hands of the little guy in a good mood.
Then, let the little guy take him to the backyard to adopt, but don't really be made into mutton hot pot and sheep whip hot pot.
Just as the little maid led Jin An to the backyard and passed by the pair of daughters of Zhang Xianling in the lobby, the five or six-year-old girl who was eating her fingers quietly pulled the sleeves of the eldest sister.
