The alleys of Jinling in the rain are quiet and silent. The old shopkeeper of the grocery store opposite the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info looked at the weather for a long time with a sad face, sighed and then walked into the house and made a pot of large-leaf tea.

Lao Liu took out the wooden chair of his heart, which was natural and polished by time. Lin Lan was lying on his back on the chair, and a white scarf was wrapped around his neck.

"Trimming?"

Lin Lan closed her eyes and hummed softly.

The hairsmith smeared the liquid made of soaphorn fruit on Lin Lan's chin and earlobe, picked up a sharp razor, and shaved the whiskers off Lin Lan's face with the whiskers in a very old-fashioned way.

Hot water was poured into the copper basin on the side, and the hairsmith took off the white towel around Lin Lan's neck, put it in the copper basin to soak it and wring it out, and put it on Lin Lan's face, calling it a wake up.

The heat covered Lin Lan's face, making him feel hot on his face when he closed his eyes, took a long breath, the white towel left, and the wind blew on his face, sucking the heat away, and he was refreshed.

"Pick your ears?"

"Dig." Lin Lan said very briefly.

The hairdresser's brows became more solemn, and he took out a straw stalk from the bag on one side, picked up a small ball of cotton, put it on the top of the straw stalk, and poked into Lin Lan's ears. His hand was far away at the end of the straw stalk, twisting it slowly.

Lin Lan's eyes finally opened, looked at the bamboo basket hanging from the beam, and said, "I'm going to kill someone." ”

"Murder?" The straw stalk paused slightly, and slowly took it out, and the hairmaker was afraid of hearing any more surprising news, so he deafed Lin Lan's ears.

"That's right." Lin Lan twisted his neck, and said it lightly, as if killing someone, for him, it was the same as shaving a beard.

The hairsmith narrowed his eyes and asked, "Kill whom?" ”

"I can't tell you this for the time being, I will give you a voice in the ward first, so as not to call me sloppy when the time comes."

"Do you think that's a good idea?" The hairsmith threw the white towel into the copper basin and asked angrily.

A smile crossed the corner of Lin Lan's mouth, and said, "Anyway, the powerful can use money to settle the matter by killing someone, isn't it?" ”

"Don't mess around!"

"I'm sane." Lin Lan casually picked up a short straw stalk, wrapped around some cotton, and plucked out the other ear, then got up and said, "I'm just informing you, not consulting you, so just look at it, as for the rest, you don't need to care." ”

Lin Lan walked into the rain with an umbrella.

The hairsmith quickly followed, and said, "You can't mess around! ”

The yellow paper umbrella turned around, and Lin Lan's smile made the hairsmith feel a trace of inexplicable panic.

"The only patience I have has been worn out by him, if he doesn't die, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make me feel at ease, so it's best not to interfere, otherwise it will ......" Lin Lan wiped her neck with her hand, revealing a weird smile.

In the rain, Lin Lan's steps were very steady.

Some brutes should have died a long time ago, didn't they?

……

……

The hot water in the bathhouse was rising, and Lin Lan, who had finished shaving, was wearing big pants, enjoying the stimulation of the hot water on her skin.

Thump.

Someone entered the water on one side.

Bao Cheng roared comfortably, "This water is so hot!" ”

"How?"

Bao Cheng soaked the towel around his neck in hot water, wet his back, and said, "Steady." This girl is really tough, she has been looking for death and life several times, and in the end I am good at saying that you spent a lot of money to save her from the hands of the devil, that is, to repay the kindness, then you have to live, so I persuaded her. ”

Lin Lan leaned against the brick on the side and said, "Well, persuade people that you are better than me." ”

"That's, you don't look at who I am. Wrapped! ”

"Where's Xue Pan?"

Bao Cheng said angrily: "Don't mention it, this beast spends his days in Xue Mansion during the day, and spends all day drinking in the painting boat on the Qinhuai River at night." There was no chance to teach him a lesson. ”

"Yes." Lin Lan moved, got up and walked towards the room where he was changing.

By the time Bao Cheng came out, Lin Lan had already ordered the carriage and was waiting in the car.

"Lin Lan, where are we going?"

"Painting the boat."

Wrapped into a stagnation.

Seeing the embarrassment on Bao Cheng's face, Lin Lan smiled and said, "Go and have fun, don't do anything." ”

"You, the country's superintendent, deserve to be easy."

"Yao Xijiu can't wait to eat me when he sees me now, why don't you go and find it uncomfortable?" Lin Lan's occupation of Wuyi Lane this time was directly holding high the banner of the national eunuch, and later the students of the school palace occupied Wuyi Lane again.

Bao Cheng remembered this incident, so he asked: "By the way, speaking of this, is the Xue family just the matter of Wuyi Lane?" He didn't dare to imagine that the people of the Xue family would know each other so well, so they would give away the entire Wuyi Lane.

"Face is a thing, although some people will always look at it more important than the inside, but do you think we just send a plaque like this, and make a fuss to take advantage of this big advantage?"

Bao Cheng smacked his lips and asked, "Is there a follow-up?" ”

Lin Lan had to admire the old lady of the Xue family's methods, and said: "Since the alley is occupied, the Xue family naturally wants to make a big publicity, I heard that the affiliated college we planned to set up, the position of the superintendent of the academy should be done by the people of the Xue family, and the descendants of the Xue family do not need any conditions to enter the academy to study." ”

"Ahh

Lin Lan said with a smile: "Don't be angry, don't say if you can let them come, even if he asks someone from the Xue family to read it, he won't be able to read any flowers." The rich four generations soaked in the honey pot can read what tricks. ”

The carriage traveled to the riverbank, and the painting boats were all parked on the bank, and before nightfall, the singing and dancing of the painting boats were gone, and it was estimated that even the courtesans were still asleep. Lin Lan glanced at the environment around the Qinhuai River, as if he was planning something.

"Looks like we're here a little early." Bao Cheng stretched.

"What time is it?"

Bao Cheng twisted his neck and said, "I guess it's not time......"

"Who wouldn't? I want a specific time. ”

Bao Cheng smiled bitterly: "You are a strong man." ”

The groom on the side laughed and said, "Little official, it's been a while. We set off at noon, and arrived here for almost an hour. ”

Lin Lan gave the coachman the money and said, "Since it's early, let's wait." He looked at the drizzling rain in the river and was stunned.

"Huh? Where's your little scholar? ”

"I'm going to run errands." Lin Lan took a bite of the red bean cake bought by the coachman, and remembered that it had been so long, and the girl from the north should also come back. Daiyu has already gone to the letter, but Zhao Yafang, this mysterious woman, even he doesn't know if he can still see it in this life, and he can only look at fate.

"If you don't come back, then you really have to go to Jingshi to find it." He looked at the river and muttered to himself.
