Time passed quietly in laughter, and Yu's mother's constricted brows also stretched a little, which was what Yu Shaobai wanted to see the most. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the fifteenth day of the first month of the sixth year of Hongwu, Yu Shaobai came to Jinhuafu City with a large family, Xiao Wu and Ah Lian clamored to see the Lantern Festival, and Yu Shaobai had to bring them here.

Yu's mother was not in good health, so she didn't come together, Ruyu and Liuxiang stayed at home, and Wu Zichu, Li Jingming and Lan Zheng came together. Zhan Xing and Chunjiao were not there, they both stayed at Lanxi's house, and only the vulgar followed.

At the beginning of the day, the group rushed into Jinhua Mansion. This city is a little worse than Hangzhou's city, but it is also very lively. The liveliest place is the Lamp Market.

The lamp market has been opened as early as the tenth day of the first month, and a group of people came to the lamp market, which is surrounded by stalls on both sides, selling all kinds of lanterns, and living characters, such as Lao Tzu, beauty, Zhong Kui catching ghosts, moonlight prostitutes, and bangs playing toads; Flowers and plants include gardenias, grapes, bayberry, and persimmons; Birds and insects include deer, cranes, fish, shrimp, and horses; Its kit kat has glass hammers, mica screens, crystal curtains and glass bottles, and people are dazzled by it.

Yu Shaobai looked at the crowd in front of him and couldn't help but shake his head.

"Shaobai, why are you sighing for no reason?"

Hearing Li Jingming's words, Yu Shaobai said: "The people of Lanxi and Pujiang counties at this time are also festive seasons, but they can only tighten their belts to survive, and they are in a depression. And the people of Jinhua Mansion City sang and danced, and it was peaceful, which was really ...... The same people don't have the same fate......"

"Yes, the locust plague has made the people miserable, but fortunately, the relief food of the imperial court has been distributed, and it can save the people from fire and water."

Yu Shaobai nodded when he heard this, but he didn't think so. The relief food of the imperial court can indeed save the people from fire and water, but the premise is that it can all fall into the hands of the victims. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, corrupt officials were rampant, and the matter of enriching their own pockets was repeatedly prohibited, and only half of the relief food fell into the hands of the victims at most.

He saw the crowd gathered in the crowd to watch the juggling, and turned his head to look at a man dressed as a peddler behind him.

"My lord, there's news from Lanxi." The peddler looked up, and it turned out to be Shi Dangdang.

Yu Shaobai took the note and read it, and nodded slightly, "The way to repay the debt...... It's long. ”

Baishui Village, Longquan Township, Lanxi County.

When the full moon was in the sky, Yang Laohan's family sat at the table, looking at the porridge brought by his wife, and they all snapped out their shadows. "Today's Lantern Festival, why is it just porridge?" Seeing the children gobbling up the porridge, Yang Laohan's eyes flashed with tears.

His wife shook her head at him and motioned for him to come over. When they came to the door, the wife whispered, "The relief food for the imperial court has been eaten, what can I do tomorrow?"

Yang Laohan looked at the three grandsons in the house, his face showed sadness, his only son died early, and his daughter-in-law then died of illness, leaving behind three and a half children, and now there is no rations, what should I do?

"I'll go to the mountains tomorrow and see if I can dig up wild vegetables."

"No, the old Li Tou of the house next door went to the mountains, and he never came back, I heard that he was eaten by wild beasts in the mountains, you can't go!"

Yang Laohan sighed: "If you don't go, you'll die, I can't let them starve to death."

Bang bang bang~

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and Yang Laohan wondered: "Who will be in the middle of the night?"

The two of them came to the door, asked, but no one answered, and finally opened the door without seeing anyone.

"What is this?" Although Yang Laohan didn't see anyone, he saw two sacks at the door, he untied them, and couldn't help but be stunned, this bag was actually white rice grain.

"Isn't the old man dreaming?" He rubbed his eyes, and then he was sure that it wasn't his own dazzle.

"Old man, could it be that the Bodhisattva has appeared?"

Hearing this, Yang Laohan came back to his senses, he was still worried about the rice grain just now, and this rice grain appeared, it must be the manifestation of Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Hei Xuan stood on the fork of the tree, watching the pair of old men keep kowtowing and bowing, and there were words in his mouth, and his face showed an inexplicable look. "I'm not a bodhisattva, I just want to change my life......

At the same time, such a play was staged in the poor families of Lanxi and Pujiang counties, Yu Shaobai had asked Hei Xuan to use the money from the deep mountain villa to pretend to be a rice merchant in other counties to buy grain a few days ago, and it was not until today that things were ready, and all the members of the Heaven and Earth Society rushed to various places in Lanxi and Pujiang counties to deliver life-saving food to the people's homes.

Yu Shaobai's move was nothing else, it would only allow himself and the disciples of the Heaven and Earth Society to repay their debts, and the debts they owed would be difficult to pay off even if they died.

And on the day of the Lantern Festival, Yu Shaobai formulated a new set of rules,

The first is that no longer accept tasks from the outside world, and business officials who have made friends with them in the past are no longer allowed to have contact. The reason why he did this was to make the Heaven and Earth Society stop killing innocents indiscriminately for money, and at the same time, he could hide the existence of the Heaven and Earth Society.

The decision not to accept the task had a great impact on the disciples of the Heaven and Earth Society, but they did not dare to disobey Yu Shaobai's words, and Yu Shaobai did not completely cut off his financial route, in his opinion, robbers and corrupt officials and wealthy businessmen were all walking ATMs, but they wanted to rob them in the name of Deadwood Hall.

The most important thing for Yu Shaobai now is to make the existence of the Heaven and Earth Society as transparent as possible, the five branches of the White Lotus Sect know too many people, and when Master Zhu frees up his hands, sooner or later he will be destroyed by the imperial court. So he didn't want to be harmed by the pond fish. Before the imperial court started, he was going to transform the disciples of the Heaven and Earth Society, he didn't plan to be the chief helmsman of the Heaven and Earth Society, and then reverse Ming, this identity, let him walk on thin ice, and it is the right way to be Yu Shaobai as soon as possible.

The picture returns to the Jinhua Mansion City Lamp Market, as night falls. At this time, the lantern festival has begun.

Yu Shaobai noticed a few fans held in the arms of Wu Zichu's entourage, and couldn't help but be a little curious. "Zichu, it's freezing this day, why did you order someone to bring a fan."

Wu Zichu took his eyes off the masked woman who walked out from the opposite side, picked up the fan with a smile and said, "You naturally don't know the first time you came to the Lantern Festival, you see that those scholars are the same as us, what are you coming to this Lantern Festival for?"

Yu Shaobai looked at the young people dressed as scholars opposite, they also had fans in their hands, and couldn't help but be stunned, could it be the Lantern Festival...... Will the lantern go well with the fan?

"In fact, in addition to lantern riddles, the most attractive thing about the lantern festival is those ladies. Usually they don't go out of the gate, and they don't step out of the second door, only on the day of the Lantern Festival, they come out together to enjoy the lanterns, and these scholars are coming for them. ”

Hearing this, Yu Shaobai realized that it turned out to be the charm of the girl, like the car show in the previous life, whether it was to see the car or the girl, it depends on whether your eyes are good or not.

"So, Brother Jing Ming and you are also here because of this, hey? What about Brother Jingming? ”

Wu Zichu stretched out his hand and pointed to the opposite side, and said with a smile: "He's there."

Yu Shaobai leaned in the direction of his finger and saw Li Jingming walking towards a woman wearing a pink veil.

Syllable~

He arched his hand, and the fan in his hand slipped down, landing right next to the woman's feet. The little girl dressed as a maid picked up the fan and unfolded it in front of the woman.

The woman looked at the fan, nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Li Gongzi's poem is really talented."

"Miss Feng has won the prize."

Watching Li Jingming and the woman go together, Yu Shaobai felt that the whole person was not good, what the hell is this, a routine, a deep routine.

"See, this is the purpose of the fan, that young lady is Feng Xiangxiang, the eldest daughter of Feng Jinjiu, a cloth merchant in Fucheng, who was preempted by Jing Ming."

Hearing this, Yu Shaobai shook his head helplessly, the young lady could be recognized at a glance with her face covered, and she must have done a lot of homework before coming.

"Look, that's the little girl who went through Si Liu's experience."

Yu Shaobai looked at the woman standing on the bridge and sighed, "How did you recognize it?"

Wu Zichu laughed in a low voice: "You don't need to recognize the young lady, as long as you recognize the personal maid next to them, you can know which young lady it is."

With that, he picked up his fan and walked towards the stone bridge.

Yu Shaobai looked at the stack of portraits he handed to him, all of them looked like maids, he shook his head helplessly, this routine is really speechless.

"Third brother, I'm going to buy that candy man." At this time, Xiao Wu ran over and pulled Yu Shaobai to a stall, Yu Shaobai turned his head to look at Ah Lian's location, and Da Vulgar and Senior Sister Lan were accompanying her.

He bought two sugar people, asked Xiao Wu to give them to Ah Lian, watched him leave, and Yu Shaobai came to the tea shop to sit down.

"Childe, the tea you asked for is here."

Yu Shaobai picked up the teacup and glanced at the figure dressed as a scholar diagonally opposite, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

He stood up, put down the tea money, and walked straight out of the tea shop towards the alley.

"Huh~ What about people?" The scholar followed Yu Shaobai all the way to the alley, and lost the person in a blink of an eye.

"Are you looking for me?"

Hearing the voice behind him, the scholar was frightened, and he turned his head sharply, only to see that the man was behind him.

"When did you run behind me?" The scholar raised his head and looked at Yu Shaobai, in the moonlight, that face was also a lot clearer, it was Lin Wanfeng, who had not seen him for many days.

"I should be asking you, what are you doing with me?"

Lin Wanfeng was a little weak-hearted, and replied: "When did I follow you, is it difficult for you to take this road?"

"Well, since you said so, let's go." Yu Shaobai motioned for her to go first.

"This ...... Well, I did follow you. Seeing Yu Shaobai turn around and leave, Lin Wanfeng hurriedly chased after him.

Yu Shaobai stopped and said, "What are you doing with me?"

"I ...... I want to borrow money from you. ”

Borrow money?

Yu Shaobai's face showed suspicion, "I just remembered it now, shouldn't you be in Lanxi?" How can it be in Jinhua Mansion City? ”

"I can't say this, do you want to borrow it or not?" (To be continued.) )
