Chapter 2 Crossing is a science
There are many alleys on Qipan Street, Xujia Lane is just one of them, more than a dozen households in the alleys are distributed on the left and right of a bluestone road in turn, Xu Bai grew up here, and the position of each bluestone slab is remembered with his eyes closed, and Bailijia is at the end of the bluestone road.
In the years since his father disappeared, if it is said that he has helped Xu Bai the most, it is definitely Bailiqi, and Bailiqi's daughter Baili Susu is also Xu Bai's childhood sweetheart, in his heart, it doesn't matter if he Xu Bai is wronged, but if anyone bullies Baili Susu's head, it is absolutely unbearable.
Chasing Su Su all the way to Baili's house, Su Su turned his head and entered his house, but Xu Bai was stunned at the door.
In the courtyard, Bai Liqi was frowning, talking to a woman dressed up in bells and whistles, Xu Bai recognized this woman, who was a well-known matchmaker on Qipan Street.
"Oh, that kid of the Liu family, it's okay, maybe after next year, the Liu family will have a showman, and then Miss Su Su will not be a showy lady, such a family business, where to find it, if Su Su is my daughter, I'm afraid I will wake up laughing in my dreams......"
"Uncle!"
Xu Bai screamed a little hard at Bailiqi, and for some reason, he felt that his nose was a little sour.
Bailiqi nodded at him, beckoned to him, turned back to the matchmaker and said, "I have to think about this matter again, or you go back first, and I'll give you a letter tomorrow!" ”
"Oh, such a good family affair, what do you want, Brother Baili, you have to agree now, this dowry will be sent to the house tomorrow, with Miss Susu's talent, we don't want much, and the Liu family can ......afford it."
"Get out!"
Xu Bai's face sank: "My uncle said that he told you to come back tomorrow, what are you still making noise here!" ”
Xu Bai is not very old, but he has a bit of a fierce reputation in this chessboard street, this matchmaker must have heard of him, and when she saw him stretching her face at this moment, she didn't dare to talk back, and looked at Bailiqi: "Then I'll come back tomorrow morning, Brother Baili, I must have good news when the time comes!" ”
Xu Bai watched the other party walk out coldly, then lay down, closed the door in the courtyard, returned to Bailiqi's side silently, and sat down.
"Liu Wan's son is a nerd, Su Su can't marry him!"
Half-loud, he lowered his head and said sullenly.
"Don't talk about this!" Baliqi waved his hand, got up and went back to the house, and pulled out something.
"I'll give this back to you!" He put an oiled paper bag in front of Xu Bai: "It's all the things left by your father, and I told me to give it to you when you grow up!" ”
"What is this?" Xu Bai opened the oiled paper bag and said in amazement.
"This is the deed to your house!" Bailiqi looked at him: "In the future, whether you live in your house or sell it is up to you!" ”
Bailiqi took out the contents of the oil-paper bag one by one: "This wooden box was also handed over to me by your father for safekeeping, he didn't say that he wouldn't come back at the time, after so many years, I think he won't come back, I think it's better to return it to its original owner!" ”
This is a tangram box, Xu Bai took it in his hand and checked it, it was very light.
"These things are given to you, in the future, you will come to my house less!" Bailiqi sighed: "Su Su is old, I have to think about her for the rest of my life, you often come and go to my house, spread it, and it will not be good for Su Su's reputation in the future!" ”
"Why now?"
Xu Bai paused, raised his head, and asked.
"If I'm not mistaken, this month, you'll be sixteen!" Bailiqi said slowly: "Originally, you and I were on good terms, and before your father was separated from you, I also thought about marrying a family with him, but look at you now, do I dare to hand over Su Su to you?" ”
"Last night, I was arrested by the government again!" Bailiqi said: "I don't want my daughter to live this kind of worrying life, it's not that I didn't help you find a regular business at the beginning, but which one of you have worked for a long time, Xu Bai, Uncle treats you well, and now, you have grown up, I don't ask you to repay Uncle, don't drag Uncle down, don't drag Su Su down, is it okay?" ”
"Got it!"
Xu Bai nodded and put away the things on the table, "I know what to do!" However, uncle, Su Su's relatives, you have to be cautious, uncle here in the future, uncle doesn't call me here, I won't come again! ”
Inside the house, there was a faint sound of sobbing, Xu Bai felt sour, turned his head and stopped talking, and left here.
Walking out of the courtyard gate, Xu Bai stumbled back to his home, looked at his four-walled room, he smiled bitterly, threw the things in his hand on the bed, and lay down straight.
The experiences of these years, like pictures, circulated in his mind, and finally turned into two big words: "You deserve it!" ”
I'm probably the most unproductive traverser!
When he woke up in this body, the owner of this body had been beaten to death, and he had been thrown into the depths of the alley like a wild dog, and he had recovered in the alley all night with his wounds before he climbed back into this bed, and at that time, he was thirteen or fourteen years old.
When he figured out the situation around him, he found out that he was just a grass man at the bottom of the Ming Dynasty, and even an orphan, so, for the next few years, he was working hard to survive almost every day, if there was any bright spot in his life, then, it was his only childhood sweetheart, Baili Susu.
He once thought that it would be okay to spend his life with the woman he liked in this Ming Dynasty in such obscurity, have a few children, and be an ordinary person, but now it seems that even such a request is a luxury.
In his previous life, he was an ordinary person, even if he traveled to the Ming Dynasty, he was still an ordinary person, except for some more experience and knowledge accumulation than today's people, he was not much better than others, he wanted to learn from the predecessors in some books, in this Ming Dynasty to make guns, guns, glass, and soap, but he quickly found that these things, he still won't, he knows a little bit, in the Ming Dynasty, some are better than him.
Well, these are useless, then, those advanced business ideas in the previous life get here, don't seek to be rich and expensive, make a little money and be a rich man with peace of mind, it's always okay, but unfortunately, this is still wishful thinking, an orphan at the bottom of the society, no funds and no connections, just rely on a few ideas, want to earn a lot of wealth, this is simply a fool's dream, do some small business and still have to be eaten by people to take cards to blackmail, want to be big, it is basically impossible.
Moreover, a few years of life in the Ming Dynasty also made him very clear, even if he really became big and earned a lot of wealth, it was probably just a flower in the water.
This is not a society where you can change your class by working hard alone.
Except for scolding "the feudal dynasty is really black", he couldn't even find a place to reason. The legendary Qing official who is the master of the people, the Ming Dynasty must have it, but the probability of him meeting this kind of Qing official is estimated to be about the same as the probability of the appearance of this kind of Qing official, so it is best not to count on it.
Reincarnation is a science, and crossing is the same, in the face of such a hellish difficulty of crossing life, Xu Bai really wants to give up his efforts.
