In the city of Luoyang, there is an undercurrent.

It's been raining lightly in the city for the past few days. And the courtyard of the Ren family was extraordinarily quiet, and Li Yuzhu stayed in the room alone and continued to practice calligraphy.

Since being ridiculed by Ren Hongchang last time, Li Yuzhu has made up his mind that he must practice calligraphy well, and he must not lose his face in front of beautiful women.

It was also because of the rainy weather for several days that Ren Hongchang was unable to come here again to discuss "knowledge" with him. And in the days when this beauty didn't come, Li Yuzhu actually missed her a little, not that she liked her, but she just felt a little boring in the time without her, after all, people are social animals.

When Li Yuzhu practiced calligraphy, he didn't dare to be as careless as last time, and wrote out the wine, so he didn't write poems anymore, but wrote a diary.

First diary:

"Today, I tidied up Room 3, according to the modern style, mainly using the Chinese pastoral style, using wood, stone, rattan, bamboo, fabric and other natural materials to decorate, soft decoration with rattan products, green potted plants, porcelain, pottery and other furnishings.

Well, it's okay, although I personally like European style and pursue a more comfortable and comfortable living atmosphere. But, alas, there are no such materials.

However, even so, several rooms of the Ren family have been tidied up by me! I don't know if Ren Da Mei will like it next time she sees it. ”

Second diary:

"Yesterday I changed the room to a different style, this is indoor, so today I'm going to tidy up the outside! The yard is particularly messy, there are a lot of sundries, I threw those unused sundries outside the yard, I don't want them to affect the entire outdoor environment, think about the Situ Mansion where Ren Da Mei lives, it can really be regarded as a scenic spot!

For the outdoors, I imitated the Japanese style, and although it can't be absolutely similar, it can still be the same.

I braved the rain to move a big stone outside, with this big stone as the center, leaving a circular open space, ready to raise flowers and plants in the back, and outside this open space, around him a circle of flooring, uh, okay! There was no flooring, so I did some simple treatment and surrounded it with a fence! ”

Third Diary:

"The room and the yard are almost handled, well, there is still a door to that yard, it is too ugly, it affects the aesthetics, and it is re-modified.

I went out and walked a long way before I found some bamboo, I cut a few of the same size, and I was going to take them back to make a door, but then I suddenly thought, I can plant some green bamboo in the yard, wouldn't that be more meaningful? Ren Da Mei should like it, hahaha!

So I said just do it, and I moved a few smaller bamboos back and planted them. ”

Fourth Diary:

"The new home is almost decorated, I think Ren Da Beauty will definitely like it!

However, I found a serious problem, there is not much rice at home! I don't have financial resources, and I've been a little white face for the Ren family for so long, so I'm sorry!

So, I made up my mind that I must go out tomorrow to find a job and support myself. ”

Fifth Diary:

“……”

Well, today is the fifth day, after all, nothing has been done, so I haven't had time to write yet.

It was also the fifth day, when the weather turned clear, Li Yuzhu went out of the house, ready to find a job to support himself.

Li Yuzhu went out, took a deep breath of the fresh air outside, stretched his waist, and walked towards the center of the city.

It is said that it is to find a job, but in fact, it is to find a job, but now this era is not as modern as it is, even if you have all the strength, you may not be able to find a job, after all, the commercial economy is not developed in this era, and there is not much demand.

Li Yuzhu walked around the street for most of the day, but he didn't see where he needed help, and he didn't find the job, but he was tired.

At noon, Li Yuzhu touched his stomach that was almost hungry, but he had no money in his pocket, so he had no choice but to go home!

Ay! What a tragic life! Why am I so hard to cross over? Think about the online articles he once read, which one of them is not a family with a lot of money!

On the way back, Li Yuzhu suddenly saw a teahouse placed on the side of the road, and the teahouse was an old man, dressed in simple gray clothes, but his body was tall and energetic, not at all like an old man, and even seemed to have a feeling of a fairy wind Taoist.

At this time, the small teahouse is empty, and if you want to come to the business, it should not be expensive, so it's a big deal to bargain with him!

"Old man, how much is a cup of tea?" Li Yuzhu stepped forward.

The old man opened his eyes, looked at Li Yuzhu, and shook his head: "You have to ask the price for a cup of tea!" A poor ghost. With that, the old man closed his eyes, as if dozing off, but he still sat up straight, and did not think much about it.

Li Yuzhu's face turned red, Made, this is despising me! He touched his pocket, and there were about twenty cents left, all of which he had touched when he escaped from the group of officers and soldiers that day. Of course, Li Yuzhu naturally won't do anything more about stealing now, after all, he was really helpless that day, and that group of officers and soldiers were not good people.

This twenty yuan is still what he has left over from his thrift in addition to buying rice and vegetables and other necessities, although he is indeed a little hungry at this time, but he can still bear it. Made, I'm so miserable, it's not good to play through at all.

Li Yuzhu shook his head and was about to turn around and leave, but who knew that the old man spread a word.

"If you don't have money, you can try to play a game with the old man, win, take care of yourself, and if you lose, please take care of yourself, but I bother to give the old man a word." There was a chessboard on the old man's table, and it looked like it was Go!

"A word?" Li Yuzhu was very puzzled, what kind of nerves did this old man have, and was he sick? Or is it the kind of big guy who lives in seclusion? Generally that's all there is to it!

"The old man has a pen and ink here, and it's up to you to decide what words you give."

The old man spoke crisply and neatly, without a trace of mud and water, which couldn't help but make Li Yuzhu a little curious, in the next game, he wouldn't lose money anyway.

Even if he is a person with a brain problem, he will be disgraced! I've lost enough face now!

"Good!" Li Yuzhu nodded: "Please also ask the old man to teach." ”

After Li Yuzhu sat down, the old man opened his eyes, and he looked like a master! couldn't help but make Li Yuzhu feel disdainful in his heart, he had seen this appearance a lot in TV series, and even those actors on TV had a temperament higher than the old man in front of him.

For playing Go, Li Yuzhu still knows how to go, he went to school as an elective course at the sliding door school when he was in college, speaking of which, there is still an unbearable past here, which made Li Yuzhu's heart suddenly appear a woman, Zhou Shuya.

Li Yuzhu shook his head, no longer thinking about the past, and concentrating on playing chess with the old man.

After a long time.

"Is there something on your mind?" The old man's deep voice suddenly came.

Li Yuzhu paused and nodded: "When I think of the past, I can't help but feel some pain in my heart. ”

Indeed, Li Yuzhu has tried his best not to think back to the time when he was a colonel elective, but the more this is the case, the more he can't extricate himself!

His heart hurts, he wants to cry, he wants to cry.

Hearing this, the old man's face did not change, and as always, he picked up a chess piece and dropped it.

"I lost ......" Li Yuzhu was a little depressed, after going for so long, he didn't even know how he lost now.

"Childe plays chess in a decent manner, very disciplined, presumably he should have studied it carefully, but he is a person who loves chess, but today, I think I feel a little impetuous!" The old man commented, speaking the same way, neither arrogant nor hypocritical.

"What the old man said is very true! The younger generation has been taught today! Li Yuzhu didn't know why, he obviously felt that this old man was a little pretentious, but what he felt at this moment was indeed an extremely sincere attitude, which made him can't help but have a slight change in his opinion of the old man.

"Hmmm! Tea in a teapot and pour yourself. ”

Li Yuzhu shook his head: "The younger generation is in no mood to taste tea at this time, thank you old man!" ”

"Hehehe......" The old man smiled for the first time: "Then please give the word to the son!" ”

Li Yuzhu came to the pen and ink, picked up the pen and pondered for a while, but suddenly hesitated, and didn't know what to write for a while.

What Li Yuzhu thought before was that no matter what, he could ask for a cup of tea to drink, and give words, just write a word! But now, his mood has changed, he doesn't want to drink the tea, he gives words, there are so many words, and he doesn't know which word to give for a while.

"Hehehe......" The old man smiled again and suggested, "Since the prince doesn't know what words to give, why don't you drink this tea and think about it again." ”

"It's fine." Li Yuzhu picked up the teapot on the table again and poured a cup of tea directly into the cup.

Looking at the tea in the cup, there are a lot of tea residues, and the fragrance is very light, so it is not a good tea.

"The son is a temperamental person, tasting tea, should not look at the quality of tea, just like tasting life, not to see whether the journey of life is smooth, the old man here on the way of chess, not on the game of winning or losing, therefore, whether it is winning or losing, the person who comes can be at the old man's own convenience."

"The old man wants to give his son a word: the past is long, fleeting, people should still look forward!"

Li Yuzhu nodded, and suddenly his heart was shocked: "Thank you, old man, I thought about it, I want to give more than one word." ”

After speaking, Li Yuzhu held up the teacup with his left hand, picked up the pen with his right hand, and wrote on the paper with his stiff strokes: The past is a lot of worries, and a smile solves a thousand sorrows!

When I finish writing, the pen falls. Li Yuzhu picked up the tea in his hand and drank it all!

"Hahaha......" The old man laughed: "What a lot of worries in the past, a smile relieves a thousand sorrows!" ”

"Hahaha..." Li Yuzhu also smiled, and said to the old man: "The younger generation has been taught today, I don't know the old man's name!" The younger generation must remember it for the rest of their lives. ”

"The old man smiled, I think I will meet my son again in the future!" The old man arched his hand at Li Yuzhu, obviously, he had already regarded Li Yuzhu as a peer.

Friends of the New Year! Li Yuzhu came up with this word in his heart, and said: "The younger generation will remember it in his heart, so he will retire first." ”

The old man smiled and nodded.

Li Yuzhu bowed and retired.

Li Yuzhu was on the way home, although he was still very hungry, but at this time he was in a particularly comfortable mood, and he was still striding and walking happily.

On the way, Li Yuzhu suddenly had an idea that he couldn't find a job in this era, which is obvious, but he can start a business!

Li Yuzhu suddenly became enlightened, he was really stupid in reading, he only knew that he could find a better job after graduation, and he didn't think about starting his own business at all, so he didn't think about it in this direction at first.

Made, why didn't you think of it earlier?

Okay, so if you decide to start a business, how should you start a business? Make your own little invention and sell it? Well, what to do? Made, what should I do? What can be done in this era, science and technology are not developed......

I'm going to Nima, O God! For the gods? You crossed labor and capital, and you didn't bring anything else except me, and I, a person, still have to eat! You're like this, and you're not afraid to starve me to death!

All right! It's my own business to starve to death!

Why am I so sad!

Oh, no, I can also do business, I can open a teahouse!

Yes, yes, I can open a teahouse in the courtyard of Ren's house.

I just renovated the courtyard of Ren's house a few days ago, and it was renovated in a modern style, which is unique in this era.

Ren has a total of six rooms, three are slightly wider, and the other three are narrower, yes, when the time comes, I can do an auction form, only receive five or six customers a day, but the price must be increased, and I don't have to make too much money, I just need to support myself to make a living.

By the way, the yard is still Miss Ren's, and when the time comes, we can discuss with her and give her dividends.

You can even pull her to invest together, after all, she has nothing on herself, and it still costs to open a teahouse. All kinds of tea need money, and when the time comes, you can do a publicity, which also requires publicity fees.

Also, I don't know tea art, so I can go to Miss Ren to learn it in the next two days.

Uh-huh...... That's pretty much it!

Hahaha, what a genius I'm in!

PS: Readers and friends! Cactus wants to explain it here, because readers and friends may think that the plot of the old man smiling three times in this chapter may be a little foggy.

First of all, let's talk about the character of the protagonist, the protagonist is a person who dares to love and hate, very emotional, in modern society, he believes in love very much, he believes that he can have a pure and flawless love, he can give up everything for love, and he can do everything without hesitation, but at the same time, he is also a fragile person, in love, he can't afford to hurt something. In modern society, although he does not regard money as dung, he does not bend his waist for five buckets of rice, and he lives in a very ideal world.

Cactus Let's talk about this old man and laugh three times, why did you write him out? There's bound to be some truth to that! Because he can be regarded as the protagonist's guide in this time and space, he will appear later anyway.

Finally, Cactus also wants to say that people like the protagonist, in fact, there are in reality, they generally live in an ideal world, in terms of doing things, there are some impulses, sometimes reckless, but the heart is never depressed, thinking of anything can release emotions, cacti like such people very much! Of course, everyone has their own opinions, and Cactus thinks that many people should not like such people very much, right?
