The winter in the north, very cold, especially at night, the temperature is nearly minus 30 degrees Celsius, Hao Ren is tightly wrapped in a fur cloak, still unable to resist the biting cold wind, keep drilling into the body, Hao Ren is frozen so red that his face is red, and his hands and feet feel numb.

The lantern festival in Yuan Dadu has not yet started, and the street is already bustling, Hao Ren walked into a wine shop facing the street with a few subordinates, chose the location of the second floor by the window, ordered a few side dishes with wine, scalded two pots of hot wine, and a few glasses of hot wine, before finally feeling the body warm.
Hu Dahai, Geng Zaicheng, and Chang Yuchun didn't know Wang Baobao or Wang Mengchen, so they followed Hao Ren to act together to protect Hao Ren's safety.
According to the normal geographical demarcation, the dividing line between the north and the south is the Huai River in the Qinling Mountains, however, according to the regional demarcation in later generations, there are several local methods of dividing the north and the south.
The three eastern provinces east of Shanhaiguan habitually use Shanhaiguan to divide the concept of north and south, and the south of Shanhaiguan is collectively referred to as the south. The people south of the Yangtze River are accustomed to dividing the north and south concepts by the Yangtze River, and refer to the north of the Yangtze River as northerners.
Hao Ren is located in Huainan, from the geographical concept, with the Qinling Huai River as the dividing line, it is considered a southerner, Huainan winter, the lowest temperature, at most about minus 10 degrees, Hao Ren's generals for the first time feel the cold of minus 30 degrees in the north, don't look at the military generals, are not very suitable for the weather in the capital, are frozen to hiss haha, keep around the brazier to the fire.
Hu Dahai said with his hands: "This bitter cold place in the north is really fucking cold!" ”
Chang Yuchun said with a smile: "If it's summer, it's a good place to cool off!" ”
Geng Zaicheng said: "The ground is covered in silver, and the snow of the white day is very beautiful!" ”
The three of them only lowered their voices and whispered and laughed, after all, they were all the 'bandit leaders' of the Red Turban Army, and they were lurking in Yuan Dadu, so they were really afraid that if they were not careful, they would meet acquaintances or something, so don't think about going out of Yuan Dadu again.
Hao Ren had no intention of drinking, drinking a few glasses just to ward off the cold, he sat by the window, his eyes kept staring out of the window, he said with ulterior motives: "China is big, north and south, east and west, the climate is very different, there is a cold winter in the north, there is a scorching heat in the south, there is the sea in the east, and there is the Gobi in the west. ”
While he was talking, the shopkeeper brought a few plates of steaming hot dishes, and while serving them on the table, he reported the name of the dish: "Steamed lamb, steamed bear's paw, steamed deer tail, roasted duck, roasted chicks......"
Hao Ren is here to look for people and check the customs, but he is not here to listen to cross talk, and there is no cross talk at this time, the shop guy is planning to report the name of the dish as if he is talking about some cross talk, that's it, after all, the profession is located.
The point is that this dish was not ordered by Hao Ren at all.
Hao Ren is not worried about money, there are important things to do at the moment, and he doesn't bring so much money when he goes out, I'm afraid that the store will hack outsiders, and it will be noisy for a while, attracting officers and soldiers, and it will not be fun. Hao Ren hurriedly pulled the guy to help the shop:
"Little second brother, I'm afraid it's the wrong dish, right? I didn't order such a dish! ”
"Although a few masters use it slowly, someone has already paid for this dish first!" The shopkeeper said.
Paid? Who pays?
Hao Ren looked at a few of his subordinates who followed, and several of them spread their hands, shrugged their shoulders, looked innocent, and told Hao Ren with expressions that they didn't do it.
"Little second brother Hugh wants to laugh, I am just a passing businessman, and I don't have any acquaintances in most of the capital, I don't know who helped us pay the bill?" Hao Ren asked with the shopkeeper in his hand.
Hao Ren pointed to a position at the adjacent table, and said: "Nuo - it is the dish that the master ordered for a few masters, and a few masters have met nobles, and the jade silicon in his hand alone is afraid that it will be worth ten thousand yuan." ”
Hao Ren looked in the direction, not far from the window, facing Hao Ren's table, and sitting against the window was a majestic Hu man.
The man was about twenty-one or twelve years of age, with some dark skin, silk underneath, white fox fur armor, a white warm hat covering his neck, and two strands of hair braided under his ears. Beside the young man, there stood a white-faced, beardless retinue in his forties, followed by seven or eight cross-sword warriors.
Seeing Hao Ren looking at him, Hu Rengongzi nodded slightly to Hao Ren, wiped a smile on his face, and raised his wine glass to express his goodwill to Hao Ren, as if to say: You're welcome, this dish is for a few people.
Hao Ren saw that he was a Hu man, and there was a cross-sword guard behind him, knowing that he was the son of a rich and noble family, he twisted his right hand to cover his chest, shallow a chest holding etiquette, and asked: "You and I have never known each other, why do you let the son make bad money for me?" ”
The boy didn't answer Hao Ren's words, but said with a smile: "I don't know a few southerners, why did they come all the way to Dadu?" I don't think I'm here to see the Lantern Festival! ”
Hao Ren disguised himself as a merchant and thought that he had not disclosed it, but he didn't expect that he was still seen by a discerning person, and he couldn't help but be surprised in his heart, so he could only play a bitter love drama routine.
"Hey!" Hao Ren sighed, nonsense, half-truths and half-truths that he was a businessman, his family was unfortunate, his wife was abducted, and some people said that he had seen his abducted wife in Dadu, so he took people to venture to the capital to find Yunyun.
Seeing the sincerity of Hao Ren's words, the boy said sympathetically: "The world is in turmoil, thieves and thieves are everywhere, the way to the north is not peaceful, the red scarf thief Hao 13 has already seized Huainan and blocked Caoyun, I don't know how a few people came over?" Is it worth taking such a big risk for the sake of a woman? ”
Hao Ren naturally couldn't tell him: 'Lao Tzu is fucking Hao Thirteen, can Hao Thirteen still stand in his way?' He said that he went out to sea from the Yangtze River by boat, landed on land from Shandong, bypassed the occupied area of the Red Turbans, and tried to avoid the topic of the Red Turban Army, while causing disputes.
Rao is like this, Chang Yuchun and others heard the word 'red scarf thief', and they were all unhappy in their hearts.
"Childe was also a son of a rich and noble family at that time, why is he here alone for a long time?" Hao Ren asked.
"Hey!" The boy sighed and said, "I'm ashamed, although I am from a rich background, but the girl I fancy refuses to follow me, which is really annoying!" ”
"Haha!" Hao Ren said with a smile: "With the identity of the son, if the woman is not a relative of the emperor and the country, she will snatch it, why bother with a long sigh!" ”
The boy said: "She is not a royal relative, nor a national relative, but he is the sister of my best brother, my brother is quite agreeable with this marriage, lobbying from it, but that girl, already has a heart, resisting death, I take care of my brother's face, and it is not easy to use force, this matter is really annoying!" ”
Seeing that Hao Renyuan's son, he was obviously talking about one person, but the two of them were talking to themselves, and no one connected the conversation between the two people, or Hao Ren would definitely knock down the table and shout:
"Oh my god! Oh my daughter-in-law! ”
