In the night rain, a young man in white with an umbrella walked into the Fan Inn.

This is a noble son of sixteen or seventeen years old, his white robe is trimmed with light blue, and the same light blue belt with gold embroidery sets off his thin waist. He was carrying a small dark blue baggage, and behind him was a long strip of baggage wrapped in oilcloth, which was supposed to be a blade, possibly a sword.

"Man, give me an upper room." Childe took the umbrella.

There was no guy to pick it up, so Childe put the umbrella in the corner of the wall.

A fellow happily walked past him with a big jar of wine, like air to him.

"Dude!" Childe couldn't help but raise his voice.

"Hey, guest officer!"

"I want an upper room."

"Guest, do you want to go somewhere else? Today, the owner of the small shop got married, and everyone was busy chattering, and they all ...... for this wedding."

The young man took out a piece of silver from his body, and looked afraid that it would not be five taels or heavier.

"Pledge on the cupboard."

And he took out a string of coppers and gave it to the fellow.

"Little second brother, help, it's raining outside."

The man put down the jar, picked up the copper, and hurriedly ran to the cabinet to find the boss.

Boss Fan is worried about the weather at this moment, the rain has been non-stop, and there are fewer people who come to follow him. I am afraid that most of the wine and meat prepared before will be wasted, how to return to the furnace, think of a way, and sell another one.

"Shopkeeper! There was a young guest who bet five taels of silver as soon as he made a move, and he wanted to stay in the hotel. ”

"Stupid, then ask me what to do, give him a stay!"

"But everyone is busy, who will entertain them?"

"Let Ami go! She's fine now. ”

"Let the bride entertain the guests?"

"It's all from a laborer's background, what's the matter, does she still have to pretend to be the eldest lady? You tell her to go! ”

"Yes."

When Boss Fan was spitting and training his buddy, the young man had already walked to the counter.

"Shopkeeper, congratulations."

"Hey, Son, welcome to the shop!" Shopkeeper Fan was dressed in an auspicious suit, with a smile on his face, and it was really a bit nondescript to stand at the counter in this dress.

"It rained all the way to the store, and I was busy catching up with your good days, but I still hope to stay here and cause you trouble."

"Look at what you said, it's too polite, please come and have a glass of wine with you later. Go up to the house in the backyard and let the guys take you there. Old Fan smiled all over his face.

The guy brought this boy into the second room of Tianzi, which is the best room in the store.

Childe looked at it, although the calligraphy and paintings on the wall were a bit vulgar, the furnishings in the room were also clean and decent.

The guy put the lamp in his hand and said to the son: "Guest officer, someone will bring you hot water to wash your face in a while." ”

Childe thanked him, put the burden on his body, unwrapped the oilcloth bag with the blade, put the sword on the side of the bed, and sat down on the edge of the chair for a while, when he heard a knock at the door.

"Please come in." Childe agreed.

The man outside the door seemed to be rubbing something, and Childe thought about it, walked over and opened the door himself.

It just so happened that a girl in a red auspicious dress, with her head down, turned around with her back and was about to arch the door with her back with a basin of water, when he suddenly pulled it open, and the girl lost her balance for a while and crashed into his arms.

Good boy, really quick-eyed, his left hand held the basin of hot water flat, and his right hand was under the girl's ribs (thin and full of bones), this rainy girl happened to lie wet on his shoulder, and only then did he let out a soft exclamation from his mouth.

"Yikes!"

This son was also startled, although he was young, his martial arts were very good, and seven or eight ordinary men couldn't get close, and he was thrown into his arms for the first time, he was still a young girl, and he couldn't move all of a sudden.

The first time the girl touched the steaming body of the young man, she was also suddenly startled and stunned.

After about a long lazy effort, Childe spoke.

"Girl, please get up."

This sentence is very polite, and the next sentence is very unusual.

"I can't hold it anymore."

This girl is Duan Meimei, when she heard this, she thought it was a joke, she blushed and was about to say a reprimand, but she struggled and suddenly realized that the basin of hot water was held by this boy with one hand!

She quickly let go of Childe, Childe turned around and put the big basin on the basin rack, looked back at Duan Meimei, who was blushing, gently took a handkerchief from her shoulder, and scrubbed her face and neck with a bang.

"I'm causing trouble for the girl, braving the rain to bring me water, and I can't hold an umbrella."

"No, no trouble."

"I heard movement outside the door and knew that someone might have come to open the door with something in both hands."

"Thank you, Childe."

"By the way, congratulations, this is a good day, and the bride has come to help."

Duan Meimei picked up the teapot with a cotton sleeve on the table and poured a cup of tea for Childe.

"Childe, please use tea, I don't know where Childe is from?"

"Tanzhou, Changsha."

"Oh, it's the south, I heard that it's rainy in the south."

"Yes, but this season is okay, winter is the hardest, guarding the big rivers and lakes, it is miserable and rainy, and the house is colder than the street."

Childe wrung out the hand towel and put it on the basin stand.

"I don't know what it feels like to rain in winter, we only have snow here in winter," Duan Meimei said, "My father used to say that the autumn wind and autumn rain are sad, and this is the season." ”

"Oh, Ling Zun is a scholar."

"It's a pity that he has been dead for many years. This shop used to belong to him, and after my father and mother passed away, this shop was sold to Old Man Fan. Duan Meimei was a little thoughtful.

"Why do you call your husband that?" Childe laughed and groaned.

Duan Meimei turned the oil lamp a little colder, suddenly looked at Childe's eyes seriously, and asked him, "Childe, what is your name?" ”

"My surname is Xu Mingjin, and the word is Yongzhi."

"Yongzhi Gongzi, my name is Duan Meimei."

"Hello, beautiful girl." Duan Gongzi gave a salute.

"Hello Yongzhi Gongzi, I asked your name to tell you what I really think at this moment."

"Hmm."

"I don't want to marry Old Man Fan, he took away my family's shop and made me owe him a lot of money. I worked all day, and now that I'm older, he wants me to marry him to fill the house. ”

"I take my younger brother with me, I can't go far and fly high, I don't have a choice."

"On this street, everyone knows that he bullied me, and I tell anyone, either they don't dare to talk to me, or they have to talk to Old Man Fan. You are a stranger, so I dare to say. You make people feel like they want to believe, so I'm willing to say it. ”

"You listened, you forgot, tomorrow will go your way, but I want you to know, this light, this color, this suona, I don't want any of them, okay?"

She stared at Xu Yongzhi, looking at him with big eyes flickering, there was no murderous aura in that seriousness, but there was ten percent bravery.

Xu Yongzhi said: "Okay, Miss Duan, I won't tell anyone, I take back what I just said to congratulate you, I don't want you to be unhappy, I hope you can live the life you like." ”

The two looked at each other seriously for a short while, and suddenly they couldn't help but laugh out loud.

They were two teenagers after all.

Duan Meimei's tears also flowed.

"If I pay you back fifty times, can you not marry him?" Xu Yongzhi said.

"I'm afraid it's late, the IOU has already become a marriage contract." Duan Meimei lowered her head and looked at her toes.

"Oh......"

"Childe, are you willing to take me away secretly? I will serve you as a concubine, a slave, and a maid. ”

Xu Yongzhi fell into thought.

"Forget it," Duan Meimei hurriedly wiped her tears with her hands, "Look what I'm talking about, Xu Gongzi, I don't know each other, I talked about such a terrible thing when we met, we are not a black shop, and I am not an immortal." When you wake up tomorrow, this shop will be mine, and I will be a coquettish proprietress who will let this shop obey my command from top to bottom. ”

She hurriedly picked up the tub, pushed the door open and fled.

"Wait a minute." Xu Yongzhi said.

"Miss Duan, I seriously thought about the incident just now."

"How?" Duan Meimei's eyes lit up.

"I think your stage, your life, will be here for years to come, and I hope you can enjoy your life after today."

Duan Meimei put down the wooden basin and said a blessing.

"It's me who was rude."

Meimei went out with a wooden basin.

Xu Yongzhi turned around and let out a soft sigh.

Duan Meimei went out and splashed residual water, and a tall black shadow pasted over.

"What are you doing here?" Duan Meimei looked at it, and it turned out to be Chef Fan, Boss Fan's eldest son.

"I listen to a bit of fun, some people are so ridiculous, they want to use any straw to save their lives."

Fan Chef walked around behind Duan Meimei and rubbed her sideburns with his face.

"What are you thinking when you heard that you made a private agreement with that kid for life? Did your son rescue the lady in distress? You need to know what kind of thing you are! ”

"I know what kind of person I am, and you need to know who I'm going to marry."

"Don't use the old man to press me," Fan Chef said, "I don't know what kind of strange wind you are blowing, the old man actually wants to marry you seriously, you also have to calculate your own catties, how long can the old man live?" Decade? Fifteen years? Whether it's a royal or a commoner, which little brother doesn't live by his brother? Which little mother is not alive with her son? ”

Fan Chef stretched out his right hand and rubbed Duan Meimei's shoulder.

"If you listen to me, it is better to follow me as soon as possible and give me a son and a half daughter, if you don't obey, when the old man dies, I will sell you to Yapo and send you to the Khitan soldiers as a camp prostitute!"

Duan Meimei was so angry that she trembled, and she was about to attack, when she suddenly heard a cough from the guests in the house, blew out the light, opened the door and came out.

"Man, bring me a lantern!" Xu Yongzhi instructed Fan Chef, this guy was stunned for a moment, and then went obediently, strange to say, the words spoken by this kind person were actually very powerful, and people couldn't help but obey.

The lantern was brought, and Xu Yongzhi looked at him.

"I guess I'm going to salute, wait for me to go to the front, and have a glass of wine."

The cook hurriedly sang: "Guest officer, please, the newly killed good sheep today has good meat to eat." ”

Xu Yongzhi walked away, and the cook wanted to talk to Duan Meimei again, where was there still someone, Duan Meimei skimmed the basin and ran back to her room.

"Run...... Hum...... Sooner or later I fiddled with you......"

Chef Fan clenched his fists and walked away through gritted teeth.

Duan Meimei was so confused that she put the hijab back on and sat in the room.

Her hair was wet and she didn't care;

The makeup is spent, and she doesn't make it up.

Her dying blow failed so miserably.

"He and I are not related, why should he come to save me."

"He's young, what can he do to save me."

"Abducting a wife is to eat military-grade stabbing with border states."

"Why do I think he'll save me?"

Grievances, grievances, and unsuccessful attempts to ask for help from others, shame suddenly completely surged into my heart, and thinking about Chef Fan's cruel words, Duan Meimei whimpered and cried out under the hijab.

When she was crying sadly, Mrs. Qian downstairs pushed open the door and came in.

"Are you going to salute?" Duan Meimei stared at the hijab, and asked Mrs. Qian angrily.

"What a salute! The shopkeeper has something to announce, so come with me. ”

Duan Meimei ripped off her hijab, jumped out of bed, put on her shoes, and ran into the hall.

I saw a group of neighbors and helpers all sitting at the table, and on the front table in the hall, Duan Meimei's ten-year-old fat brother Duan Zishou was eating roast lamb leg with Xu Yongzhi, and both of them were eating with their mouths full of oil.

Duan Meimei walked into the hall, and Shopkeeper Fan was not wearing a big red Ji suit, standing at the front, and arched his hand to the guys and neighbors.

"Guys, neighbors, congratulations to all of you, today is a good day."

The neighbors are already discussing: "What about the groom's official clothes?" ”

"I made a very important decision to announce my retirement. I just decided to transfer the store to this Xu Yongzhi Xu Gongzi, the deed has been written, and Chao Li is endorsed by the Chinese people, if you want, you can stay. ”

Chao Lizheng smiled and nodded: "That's right, this transaction has just been completed." Xu Gongzi, come and say hello to our neighbors. ”

Xu Yongzhi pulled the silly boy Duan Zishou to the front with a leg of mutton.

"Thank you Boss Fan for your success, I'll just talk about two points, let's eat and drink!"

"First, today is a good day, Boss Fan transferred the store to me."

The silly boy held up the leg of mutton next to him and shouted, "Good! ”

The neighbors were stunned.

"Second, according to our contract, Boss Fan will move overnight tonight, let's see off Boss Fan!"

The silly boy shouted again: "Better! ”

"Third, there is no wedding today, the new shopkeeper of this store will be served by Miss Duan Meimei!"

The silly boy glared at Xu Yong angrily: "You said you only said two points!" ”

Duan Meimei only felt dizzy.

Another annoyed and angry was Chef Fan.

"By the way, all the guys, after being busy tonight, I will pay two months' wages in the account room, and I will come back in two months, the inn, I want to decorate!"

"Now," Xu Yongzhi said with a smile holding the leg of mutton, "Neighbors, eat and drink well!" Guys, let's eat together when the food is finished! ”

There was a low cheer from the neighbors, followed by a louder and stronger applause.

Lao Fan's face turned blue and went to the back to pack his luggage, but his son stopped him: "Dad, what do you think?" ”

"Less nonsense, pack your bags and go!"

There was a happy and peaceful atmosphere in the lobby, and Duan Meimei sat at the table with her ass, looking at these happy people in a daze.

"Shopkeeper?"

When did Duan Zishou get mixed up with Xu Yongzhi again?

She grabbed a wine jug, poured herself a glass of rice wine, drank a little down, and wanted to sort out her thoughts well.

People can't drink wine on an empty stomach, that is, a cup of tea, Duan Meimei fell asleep dizzy.
