Chapter 3: Still a Poor Guy
Old man Li went against the current and sang folk songs. The sky is also blue and the clouds are white. The trees on both sides of the bank are lush, there are no high-rise buildings made of steel and concrete, and there is no roar of machinery. There are no office workers who are running around for housing loans and car loans, and they are a jobless vagrant who is impetuous in modern times, doing nothing and waiting for death. It's rare to have such a peaceful mind here, and you can be at peace when you come. Life always has to go on, and since God has given me the opportunity to live another way, why not take advantage of it and live another self. In modern times, I am the scum at the bottom of society, a moth. I will live to the apex of society, a pillar, and a beneficial insect in the crop field of society.
Han Xiaofeng had just finished his bold words in his heart, and he was deflated in his heart, this ancient Shinong industrial and commercial class was clear. Compared with these ancestors, there is no comparison with poetry and songs, in this Tang Dynasty, I can't even recognize a few traditional characters, and I am illiterate. Being a farmer? Don't even think about it, because there's no land. It's even worse to be a worker, you can't do anything. Do you want to live a nourishing life in this ancient world, or do you have to be rich and do business? Can half of their own hangers be compared with their ancestors? It's not obvious that it's a lantern in a pit and looking for. It is obviously impossible to make a fortune by becoming a doctor. We'll have to think of something else.
Thinking slowly, the advanced intellectuals of the 21st century could not survive in the Tang Dynasty more than a thousand years ago, so they could be killed by taking a piece of tofu.
Lao Li Tou's family lives in a small town by the river, and Han Xiaofeng follows Lao Li Tou's family when he gets off the boat. The house has four or five blue-tiled houses surrounded by a small courtyard in the middle.
"Big girl, open the door, it's me" Lao Li Tou knocked on the door and shouted.
The one who opened the door was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, who looked white and clean, and was very attractive. Dressed in a Tang costume, he is even more slender and slender, doesn't the book say that the Tang Dynasty was fat as beautiful, and it doesn't seem to be all true.
Seeing Han Xiaofeng dressed so strangely, wanting but not daring, it was uncomfortable, which made Han Xiaofeng a little embarrassed.
Lao Li Tou was a little embarrassed when he saw the scene, "Ahem, this is Brother Han Xiaofeng, who got lost in the forest and was injured, knocked his head, suffered from amnesia, and went to his house to recuperate for two days." Go and take your brother's clothes and put them on for him. ”
The girl trotted into the house, her ass twisted like a Hot Wheels.
"That was my granddaughter just now, Li Rong. His father left early, he was a child I brought up, and he was usually negligent in discipline, and he was very arrogant, and he looked like a woman, which made Han Gongzi smile. Lao Li pointed to the woman who entered the house and said with a smile.
"Where is it, Miss Li is knowledgeable and reasonable, and she is so wise and wise, how can you say it so badly." Han Xiaofeng also learned the tone of the ancients and said, if you say it according to the modern routine, it is that your granddaughter is beautiful and has a good figure, I like it very much. In this way, it is estimated that he will be directly blasted out as a hooligan immediately.
Go into the house and change into a green shirt, don't say it. This costume has a different flavor when worn, but the big sleeves are a bit inconvenient.
After a while, the empathetic Li Rong boiled a bowl of ginger soup and sent it, and drank it in one gulp, feeling warm, the first bite of this Datang was medicine, which was not a good sign.
In the evening, Li Rong's younger brother came back, and he heard the broken pot howling from afar. "Sister, I'm back, what are you going to eat tonight?"
Han Xiaofeng also walked out of the hall to greet him when he heard the voice, and Li Rong's younger brother was shirtless and covered in tendons. With a dark complexion, he looks like a master of fighting.
Li Rong, who was cooking in the kitchen, scolded, "There is no one to do it all day long, and the hair is frizzy." Come over and see Han Gongzi soon. ”
As soon as Li Rong's younger brother heard Han Gongzi, he immediately stared at Han Xiaofeng with double titanium alloy eyes.
"Sister, is this kid your best friend? No, if you want to be my brother-in-law, there's no way."
Damn, this kid doesn't have a good look, right, what's wrong with me? It's hundreds of times stronger than your black loach.
As soon as these words came out, Li Rong made a big red face, extremely embarrassed, and kicked Li Kui's ass.
Annoyed, he said, "What are you talking nonsense, Han Gongzi is just staying overnight, don't offend the guests." "Han Gongzi, don't see outside, this is my younger brother Li Kui, who is usually wild, don't be like him."
Li Kui, I rub, this name has personality. If I hadn't been in the Tang Dynasty but in the Song Dynasty, I would have thought it was the black whirlwind with the Xuanhua plate axe. The kid is not very old, only fifteen or sixteen. However, he has grown almost 1.7 meters, which is considered tall among his ancient peers.
"Wherever and where, Brother Li is open-minded by nature, uninhibited, and at first glance he is a man of temperament." Han Xiaofeng actually didn't have a bad impression of this kid, but he didn't feel that he was doing anything wrong.
As soon as he heard Han Xiaofeng's words, this kid was also happy, "Sister, you see that Han Gongzi has a vision and sees my advantages." ”
Han Xiaofeng's sweat, this kid is a snake, his ability to climb up the pole is really first-class, it's a pity not to do sales.
After Li Rong's explanation, Li Kui also knew about Han Xiaofeng. At home, Han Xiaofeng and Li Rong didn't communicate much, after all, they were a daughter in the boudoir. It's just a small talk with Lao Li Tou, and I probably know that it is now the second year of Yonghui, and this area is called Tangjiaping, mainly for fishing and farming.
Now that Li Kui is back, the two young people finally have a topic, and after a while, the two actually call each other brothers, of course, this must be Li Kui's proposal.
Because of Han Xiaofeng's arrival, Li Rong made a rich dinner. There is fish soup, vegetables, and roast chicken. Han Xiaofeng didn't know that in ancient times, this table was basically the level of the farmer's New Year.
At the dinner table, Han Xiaofeng ate with relish, the taste of this pure natural and pollution-free thing is different, the vegetables are delicious and juicy, and the fish is fatty but not greasy. It would be even more refreshing if there was another bottle of beer or Coke.
After eating and drinking, according to the time, it was no more than eight or nine o'clock, and Lao Li Tou and Li Rong went to sleep. This is undoubtedly fatal to the night owl Han Xiaofeng, who goes to bed at eight or nine o'clock before the nightlife even starts, making international jokes. I miss my game so much, PUBG, even Tank Battle Contra.
"Bang bang, Brother Han, have you slept?" It turned out to be Li Kui's kid.
"Not yet, what's wrong?" Han Xiaofeng opened the door and saw Li Kui sneaking outside the door.
"I can't sleep, it just so happens that there is a riddle lantern festival in Wanhualou in the town tonight, and I want to go and see it. But I don't know how to guess riddles, and you want you to come with me because you're a scholar. ”
Damn, this is a good thing that someone will send a pillow if you want to sleep, this kid is on the road, and it seems that he is also a fellow believer. But you still can't be too sullen, you have to be reserved. "Why do you kid run out in the middle of the night without sleeping, does your sister know?"
"Brother Han, don't tell my sister, if my sister knows, she won't nag my ears out of the cocoon. Besides, I'm not going out to do bad things, I just want to see the willow oiran of the Wanhualou. ”
No wonder this kid changed into clean clothes at night and dressed like a dog. After Li Kui finished speaking, he lowered his head and stopped talking, it seemed that he was still thin-skinned and embarrassed. It seems that this Wanhualou is the ancient Qinglou, so you have to go and see it.
Han Xiaofeng couldn't easily expose his fox tail. Said in a serious way. Okay, but I'm not an example, I'm an outsider after all, so it's not good to cover you. Let's go, let's not take an example.
Deler, walk up my Han Gongzi. Li Kui immediately changed his face, and said in the tone of the scholar's singing. It's like a fox and a fake tiger's legs, and he laughed to death.
I have to say that the nightlife of the rich people in ancient times is still very rich, with casinos, night markets, and green buildings that are full of people. It seems that the peaceful and prosperous times are good, if it is a troubled time, there is a curfew, then there is no real ghost, let alone nightlife.
Wanhualou can be said to be a landmark building in Lantian Town, of course, it is in the golden port, near the river. Whether you are from the street or the river can be reached by boat, a bit of the Qinhuai River.
It is said that the owner of this Wanhualou is also a business owner, and this game of guessing lantern riddles will be held once a month. If you guess one, you will get a dish of peanuts and melon seeds, if you guess two, you will get a cooked beef, if you guess three, you will get a bottle of wine, if you guess four, you will get a free drink, and if you guess one, you will get a good night with a woman from Wanhualou. If she meets Liu Huakui and answers the question, then she can become her first guest in the scene.
This is already very clever for the ancient times when marketing means were scarce, after all, there is a gold signboard willow oiran, which is undoubtedly a fatal attraction for those who want to kiss Fangze but have shy pockets. After all, scholars think of themselves as high-minded and think that money trading is tacky, so I will give you an elegant one and speak with strength. This has attracted a lot of guests, and it is not an exaggeration to make money every day.
Before Han Xiaofeng and the others arrived at the gate, they saw Yingying Yanyan's woman dressed in revealing clothes soliciting customers outside, of course, this is not comparable to a modern bikini. All of them are thin and graceful, and Han Xiaofeng is blood is full of blood.
Childe, come in and have fun, our girl is so smart. Han Xiaofeng's head was buzzing, and he was pulled into Wanhua Building before he knew what was going on. Feel the soft chest squeezing the arm, that sourness, I like it. With the old bustard's invitation from the guest officer, the first prostitution in his life began. I'm here in this evil old society.
Han Xiaofeng and Li Kui were each pulled in by a girl, and found a table to sit down, Li Kui, this kid is better than himself, his face is not red and his heart is not beating. I feel like a veteran, it seems that I have lost my eyes, and I thought that this kid was thin-skinned and an honest man.
There were already a few plates of snacks and a pot of tea on the table. After seeing this ancient time, there was also a sense of minimum consumption.
hugged Han Xiaofeng's little peach, and he didn't let go of his hands when he came in this way, for fear that he would find other girls and let the duck he got fly away. As soon as he sat down, he asked, "What kind of drink do the two sons need, we have flower carvings here, bamboo leaf green and high-quality aged daughter Hong." ”
Of course, Han Xiaofeng was penniless, and he couldn't take out a copper plate, so he had to keep silent and see what Li Kui said.
Han Xiaofeng looked up and saw Li Quina Wang Ba looking at him with mung bean eyes, you fucking told me to come to the Qinglou to drink flower wine, and you didn't bring any money. It's okay now, it's a shame to be thrown to grandma's house.
That little peach has been in the Qinglou for many years, and her ability to observe words and colors is perfect, and when she saw that the two of them didn't answer, she stared at her and knew that she had let these two bastards take advantage of her in vain. Immediately changed his face and said disdainfully. "You don't have any money and want to drink flower wine, looking for death. Hurry up, the toad wants to eat swan meat, poor. ”
As soon as he heard this, Li Kui was going to find the little pink theory, Han Xiaofeng hurriedly pressed his shoulder, and appeased this Leng Touqing, he ignored this matter, and said that the two of them had no power or power, so it was better to keep a low profile.
This voice seemed to be thundering on the ground, and many people looked this way, which embarrassed the two of them. Han Xiaofeng didn't want to end up so miserably for the first time he visited the Qinglou, and said, "We forgot to bring money when we left, and besides, didn't you guess the lantern riddle, I guess you don't need to give money soon." ”
It's okay not to say this, everyone laughs when they say it. A man wearing a scarf and holding a folding fan said with a smile. "This brother, it's not that we look down on you, but the lantern riddle from this Wanhualou is not so easy to guess, I think you better forget it. I invited you to this meal, all the worlds and the like are brothers, let's make friends. ”
Han Xiaofeng said, "If you don't try this, how do you know that it won't work." Yes, in Xia Han Xiaofeng, thank you brother Taiwan for your kindness. If you can't answer later, I won't be polite if you invite me to drink again. ”
The two waved their hands at each other and looked at each other and smiled.
