The windows and doors of the side houses are very basic, and even, there is a house without a door, the outer room on one side is the kitchen, there is a very simple broken door, and the other room is a room for storing miscellaneous items, which has no door, only a doorway.

On the other side of the two houses, one is a small room where people can live, and the other is Du Fu's study, which houses all kinds of books collected by Du Fu, and of course, all kinds of documents and poems written by himself.

At the corner of one side of the main house, there is a very inconspicuous Gong room, which is a little shorter than the side house, and because it is used for toilets, it is placed in the most inconspicuous position.

On the other side of the main house, a two-story chicken coop was built, and more than a dozen hens were raised, so that the whole family could eat eggs every day.

Although the rooms are very simple, Du Fu's small life is still good, at least he has three rooms that can live in people, plus a study, a living room, a kitchen, a bathroom, and a utility storage room, which is in the city of later generations, this is a big house, of course, Du Fu is in the suburbs, not the city, but the area of the house is indeed enough.

Usually, there are not many guests who need to stay after a visit, so three rooms are sufficient.

Du Fu and his wife, who is a teenager younger, naturally live alone, and the two sons and one daughter live in another house in the main hall, and the room that can live on the side is always empty, in case distant relatives come to stay overnight, or friends are kicked out by their wives, they can temporarily come and stay for one night.

As for Du Fu, if he has an awkward relationship with his wife, or suddenly wants to read, he will go to the study, in the study, Du Fu will feel at ease, and the wooden sofa in the study can be opened, after opening, the area will be doubled directly, and there is no problem in sleeping alone.

Maybe it was because he was pacing and thinking about the problem too seriously, so that Li An walked to the door, and Du Fu didn't notice it, and was still pacing in the courtyard to think about the problem.

Behind Du Fu, there were children playing from time to time, and after playing for a while, they ran away, running back and forth in the courtyard and the utility room, disturbing the hens in the yard and causing the hens to run around, and Du Fu, who was concentrating on thinking about the problem, turned a blind eye to this.

There is a very simple grass shed above the gate, so that when it rains, standing at the gate and knocking on the door will not be drenched in the rain, which is also the standard configuration of many people's homes, even the poorest people, will build a rain shed at the gate.

The courtyard wall is a civil structure, the lower half layer is the piled loess, the upper part is densely packed with branches, the arrangement is still relatively tight, and the courtyard wall is surrounded by loess below, which can avoid the neighbor's chickens and ducks from entering their own yard, and at the same time, can also avoid their own hens from running outside.

The upper layer is woven into a fence with tree branches, because if the earthen wall is too high, it is easier to collapse, and the lower one is more stable and stronger, but the low wall is to prevent the hen from flying out, so it is necessary to add a fence on it, and at the same time, it can also play a role in blocking the line of sight, but it can only block a rough, which is a translucent wall.

If it weren't for the fact that the courtyard wall of Du Fu's house was in the form of an upper fence, Li An would not have seen Du Fu in the courtyard, let alone parked and stayed.

Of course, Li An feels that the main reason why Du Fu designed the courtyard wall of his house is to broaden his vision, and the courtyard itself is not big, if the courtyard wall is built too high, people will have a sense of depression in the courtyard, and for a cultural person like Du Fu, this sense of depression is the most unbearable, after all, this is a common problem of many cultural people.

The mud wall should have been some days, and the inner and outer sides were crawling with some vines and plants, some of which took root from the bottom of the low wall, and climbed to the top of the upper fence wall, and even, stretched out a slender note, delusionally trying to continue to climb higher, but unfortunately there was no place to borrow strength, and if you couldn't climb high, you would fall down, and then, there would be more branches that did not believe in evil, climbed up again and again, and then fell again and again, and there were also some small grasses that settled on the sides and tops of the wall, and danced gracefully when the breeze blew.

It is precisely because of the addition of these small grass plants that the monotonous loess walls have more color, and at the same time, they are more agile and pleasing to the eye from a distance.

"Stand down, all of you! I went in alone. ”

Li An asked his subordinates to retreat, and then walked to the gate alone, looking at the editor-in-chief Du in the courtyard with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Du Fu still didn't notice Li An, but the children playing in the yard saw someone at the door, so he ran over excitedly, followed the crack in the door, and asked, "Who are you, why haven't I seen you." ”

It was a young boy who spoke, who looked like he was five or six years old, and it should be Du Fu's son, and he should be followed by his youngest son and daughter.

"Yo, who are you!"

Ang Lee asked with a smile.

The little boy said proudly: "I am the son of the head of the family, my name is Zongwen, what is your name?" ”

Li An smiled and said, "You are Zongwen!" Behind is your younger brother Zongwu! ”

"Hey, how do you know it's my younger brother Zongwu?"

The little boy suddenly had a trace of trust in Li An, and felt that Li An must know their family, otherwise, how could he know what his brother's name was.

However, in Ang Li's opinion, the little guy in front of him is a little fool, he says that his name is Zongwen, then, his younger brother must be Zongwu, many people will have such a tradition in naming their names, such as the eldest name with words, then, the second name will generally be Wu, there are too many such examples.

"Haha! Because I know your father! Of course I know your names. ”

Ang Lee said with a smile.

In fact, Li Ang doesn't know much about Du Fu's family situation, he only knows that he has two sons and a daughter, and has a wife who is more than ten years younger than him, as for the name of the child, Li Ang is not clear.

"Aye, someone is looking for you."

Zong Wen heard that Li An was Du Fu's friend, and hurriedly called Du Fu, who was pacing and contemplating.

Du Fu thought about the problem too seriously, and it wasn't until his son shouted at him that he reacted and walked towards the gate.

"Ahh Li Shilang came, and the lower officials saw Li Shilang. ”

Du Fu didn't expect Li An to come to visit, and he was a little surprised, so he hurriedly bent down and saluted Li An.

"Editor-in-Chief Du doesn't have to be polite, the official was just passing by and saw Editor-in-Chief Du standing under the tree, so he came over to take a look, oops! I really didn't expect that our editor-in-chief Du lived so simply! ”

Li An walked into the courtyard while admiring the scenery of Du Fu's residence, and let out a sincere sigh.

Du Fu said embarrassedly: "It's not easy to live in Chang'an, there are too many places to spend money, and you have to leave some savings in case you need it, as long as you can live in a place, you can live in it, I have wronged Li Shilang, please come inside." ”

The hostess of the house heard the movement and hurriedly came out of the house and saw Ang Lee.

This woman doesn't look very old, even younger than Ang Li, much younger than Du Fu, and looks more standard, quite a feeling of a small jasper, of course, if compared with Yan Ruyu and others, it will be much worse.

"Li Shilang, this is the Humble Jing Yang Clan, I haven't seen Li Shilang yet."

Du Fu hurriedly said.

"The concubine has seen Li Shilang."

Yang hurriedly saluted, and his attitude was very restrained.

"You're welcome, please get up."

Li An stretched out his hand to let Yang get up, and took out some candy from his body and distributed it to the three children who gathered around.

"Zongwen, Zongwu, don't thank you yet."

Du Fu hurriedly taught the child who only knew how to eat sugar.

"Thank you......"

The three children looked at Ang Lee together.

"What a lovely boy! Editor-in-chief Du has both children and daughters, and he is also blessed! ”

Ang Lee praised with a smile.

"Li Shilang praised it falsely, the humble house is shabby, and there are no good things to entertain Li Shilang, Zongwen, go to the small shop in the east to get a pot of good wine on credit."

Du Fu felt that he should do his best to be a landlord, and he had to take out the food he thought was decent to entertain Li An, but there was still some dry meat at home, but the wine was gone, and he needed to go on credit.

Li An naturally couldn't let Du Fu, who was not financially well-off, break the bank, and hurriedly stopped: "Don't go, this official is not Li Taibai, he doesn't like to drink very much, as long as a bowl of boiled water, tea is fine, hot or cold." ”

While refusing to let Du Fu break the bank, Li Ang put forward his own demand, a bowl of hot tea or boiled water.

"Child, me, go and take out the big red robe that Taibai sent last time and soak it."

Du Fu hurriedly ordered and led Li An into the main hall.

In the era of the Tang Dynasty, many main halls were additional buildings, that is, in the center of the entire house, but the conditions of Du Fu's family were relatively poor, and they could not afford to build a separate main hall, and the middle of the three main houses in the front served as the main hall.

The light in the room is okay, because the walls are smeared with white lime all around, so it is naturally quite bright.

The brewed big red robe was quickly served, and the fragrance of the tea leaves could be asked from a long distance, and at first glance it was a fine product in the tea, and it would definitely not be a fake.

In the Tang Empire, the vast majority of businessmen are still very regular, they all believe in honesty as business, and rarely use fake goods to cheat and deceive, because once it is discovered, the reputation will be over, don't want to mix in the shopping mall in this life, which is like some businessmen in later generations, who openly sell fake and shoddy goods on the Internet, which is simply cheating people.

"Good tea, really good tea! It's genuine. ”

Li An took a sip, commented sincerely, and continued: "Li Taibai's Yulu should be similar to Editor-in-Chief Du!" You can also afford to buy this big red robe. ”

Du Fu said with a smile: "What Li Shilang said is that Taibai's position is less than mine, but he writes a lot more articles than me, and the manuscript fee income is very high, and the total income should be more than that of the lower officials, but Taibai is bold and spends money lavishly, so he has never had any savings, and this big red robe may have been bought by him on a whim." ”

"Hahaha! It's really interesting, this is too white and still the same! I was born to be useful, and when my daughter is gone, he doesn't feel sorry for money at all! ”

Ang Lee said with a smile.

"It's also thanks to Li Shilang that he can be so arrogant."

Du Fu said.

"Thanks to me, how can I say that?"

Li An asked curiously.

"That's the case, since Li Shilang asked the imperial court to open the Tang Newspaper, Taibai has accepted the job of editor, not only has his income fallen, but also he can earn money by writing poems, so as long as he has no money, he will work hard to write, and as long as he writes it, won't this money be there, so naturally it is a loss to Li Shilang, and the lower officials can have today's errands, thanks to Li Shilang."

Du Fu said truthfully, his heart was naturally very grateful to Ang Li.

Li An nodded and said, "It's true, this official has been a good person, haha!" ”

Of course, the reason why these two people can have these two jobs is naturally because their literary level is high enough, otherwise, how could they have such a position.

In addition, Du Fu is serious and down-to-earth, and it is very suitable to be the editor-in-chief, while Li Taibai drinks too much and is a little bohemian, even if his writing is better, no one dares to hand over the burden of editor-in-chief to him, in case, he accidentally gets drunk and does not review the Datang Daily, then something will happen.

It is a trivial matter for some mistakes to appear in ordinary articles, but if something happens to the article about the policy of the imperial court, such as writing the emperor's year name incorrectly, writing the name of the emperor who should be avoided, etc., it will be too troublesome, and if you don't make a good scene, you will go to prison, and besides, if Li An is not in prison alone, a large number of upper-level officials in charge of Datang Daily are likely to be implicated.

However, Li Bai's writing, that is really very good, is also useful in the Tang Daily, plus the strong recommendation of Du Fu, who became the editor-in-chief, Li Bai still entered this political Datang newspaper organization, and became a travel editor responsible for collecting style, looking around, finding anything interesting can be written, in order to enrich the content of the Tang Daily, and these contents, written through Li Bai's writing, will inevitably be more beautiful, readers also like to read more, and Li Bai can get a certain remuneration every time he writes a manuscript, Therefore, the enthusiasm is also very high, and the various poetry articles written are one after another, and there is no need to urge the manuscript at all.

To say that Du Fu is the editor-in-chief after all, Yu Lu should be more than a little higher than Li Bai, and there is no problem with more than two times, but Du Fu said that he actually got less than Li Bai, and Du Fu himself will find time to write a little, which is enough to show that Li Bai has written too many manuscripts.

It's not that Li Bai is greedy for money, but that he spends too much money, his self-esteem is still very strong, and he is unwilling to accept help from others, so once he has no money to spend, he must force himself to write more.
