The town is called Daoxiang and is located not far from the two tallest peaks in Longchi County.

On this day, on the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, in the twilight, in a remote place called Yangqiao Lane in Daoxiang Town, there was a thin young man, at this time he stood at the door of his yard, one hand around his chest, one hand pinched his chin, and opened his mouth to command a beautiful girl of the same age, the girl held a jar of water glue in her right hand, and a pair of Spring Festival couplets in the other hand.

"A little up, a little off, a little to the right, too much, it's stupid......"

According to custom, today is a good day to paste Spring Festival couplets and hang lanterns, most of the people in the town have already hung red lanterns in front of their doors, and their family is the latest, so take advantage of the fact that it is not dark, hurry up to finish the Spring Festival couplets and lanterns.

"It's off.,The top is on the right.,The bottom is a little bit on the left.,Fine-tune it again..."The fineness of the teenager's requirements is simply outrageous.,The girl looked at the Spring Festival couplets she pasted.,It's square.,What's wrong with it?,You're looking for fault?"

The girl was a little angry when she thought about it, she jumped off the stool, stuffed the water glue and the rest of the Spring Festival couplets into the boy's arms, snorted, and glanced over.

The young man looked down at the object in his arms, and then looked at the girl, the pretty little face was full of displeasure, and the young man couldn't help but laugh out: "You said that you wanted to try to paste the Spring Festival couplets, so I asked you to paste them, and you are not doing it now?"

Looking at the girl's still unhappy side face, the young man was a little helpless, and said, "Okay, then I'll post it, you can help me watch it...... Why are you going?"

The girl who stepped into the courtyard gate turned her head when she heard this, puffed out her mouth, and glared at him: "It's time to make dinner, young master." Then he turned and went into the house.

The young man looked at the back of the girl who had quit picking and quitting, and was a little helpless, saying that she was a maidservant, and her temper was sometimes more young than that of those big families in Langguan Lane.

The young man's surname is Su, his name is Linfei, his father and mother died early, and his sister also left the town five years ago, and he should have been alone, until two years ago, there was one more person in the most dilapidated family in this town.

Daoxiang Town is located in the most remote area of Longchi County, according to the town from generation to generation, the word Daoxiang is the previous emperor of a certain emperor to give, Daoxiang Town planted rice, select the most exquisite part as tribute rice, exclusively for the emperor to eat, a little less is also for the princes and ministers, it is said that at that time there were officials stationed here all the year round, supervising the tribute rice, this is an old thing hundreds of years ago, and then changed the dynasty, Daoxiang Town lost the talisman of the imperial tribute, and gradually declined.

As for the reason, there have been different opinions for hundreds of years, some say that the founding emperor of the current dynasty did not like rice food, he liked pasta, some said that when the dynasty was changed, a central official from Daoxiang Town offended the emperor, so he was implicated, and it was said that the heavenly master solved the puzzle and blamed the cause of the fall of the previous dynasty on a mere meter.

Over the centuries, the town has gone through several ups and downs, once downgraded to a village, and then expanded again decades ago to become a town, which is of course another old story.

Su Linfei looked down at the glue and Spring Festival couplets in his arms, no one helped to see it, it would be a lot more troublesome to paste it, just as Su Linfei was thinking hard about what to do, suddenly he caught a glimpse of a young man in festive new clothes passing by in front of his door, it should have been just an ordinary thing, but the young man looked a little sneaky, looked around for a while, and looked at him sneakily for a while, as if he was afraid that Su Linfei would find him.

The town is not big, but there are seven or eight hundred people, this newly-dressed young man Su Linfei naturally knows, it is a dilapidated place called Anmin Lane next door to their Yangqiao Lane, the second child of the Zhang family, and an elegant name, called Yu Ge, there has been such a joke in the town over the years, called: "The Su family in Yangqiao Lane, the Zhang family in Anmin Lane, are generally poor." ”

"Stop!" Su Linfei was interested, and shouted to stop the other party, the frightened other party trembled, and turned his head with a ghostly expression.

Su Linfei was aggressive, stepped forward, and said sharply: "The New Year is coming soon, and you... What are you doing?!?"

It's none of your business that I eat zongzi? You Su Linfei is too lenient, isn't it? What's more, who stipulates that you can't eat zongzi during the Chinese New Year? Is the Confucian saint Taoist ancestor? The young man of the Zhang family is iron-clad, and he is not poor, when did the Zhang family Erlang be worse than the Su family, but ...... Just as Zhang Yuge was about to theorize with Su Linfei, he found that his back, which should have been straight, had bent down at some point, and he even said something that even he felt flattering.

"Yo, isn't this Brother Fei? Have you eaten dinner? If you don't have it, go to my house to eat, our family has a lot of dinner today." "Wait! What about the iron bones? What the hell is the poor ambition of the people? How can the good sons of the Zhang family say such bastard words?

"Do you want to eat this zongzi? Brother Fei, do you want to eat it? I just made it today, not only is it fresh, but I don't have to say anything about the taste. I don't know when, Zhang Yuge found himself patting his chest with one hand, and handing out the string of zongzi in his hand with the other.

This...... What the hell is this talking about? How can there be extra rice dumplings? These are to be brought back to his father, if they are gone, they will be small if they are counted, but they will be big if they are beaten up, so how can they be given to him here?

Su Linfei glanced at the string of zongzi on Zhang Yu's singer, and suddenly asked sharply, "Are you a sweet zongzi or a salty zongzi?"

Zhang Yuge was stunned for a while, his face was cautious, and he said tentatively: "Salty... Salty. ”

I saw Su Linfei nodding with satisfaction: "Very good, you can put it away." ”

Zhang Yuge just breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and heard Su Linfei say again: "You came just in time, I am a little busy and need your help, are you free now?"

"Happy... Happily. ”

Zhang Yuge stood on the stool, his heart was full of remorse, is he brain-dead today? There are thousands of roads in the town, and it is not good for him to go, so he has to go from here, although he wants to scold his mother angrily in his heart, he does not dare to show anything on his face, and from time to time there is a devil's whisper behind him.

"A little bit on the other, a little bit on the other, it's too stupid! A little to the right, you can't stick a Spring Festival couplet properly, are you serious?" Zhang Yuge was even more aggrieved in his heart, looking at the Spring Festival couplets he was pasting, square and square, fuck you, you pointed out to me where it was crooked?

Paste the Spring Festival couplets, the door god, and then put the spring candle into the lantern and hang it on the eaves, it took half an hour to do this, at this time the sun has completely set, look up, the sky is already starlight, Zhang Yuge got off the stool, looked at his masterpiece, wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, this is definitely the best door couplet he has ever pasted in his life, hung the best lantern, just because the black-hearted guy behind him is too fucking harsh.

"Thank you for your hard work, do you want to drink some water?" Su Linfei patted Zhang Yuge's shoulder and said with concern.

Zhang Yuge shook his head again and again: "No need, no need, these are all done, then Brother Fei, can I go?"

Su Linfei nodded, since he was leaving, could he still stay for dinner, even if he kept this guy, he might not dare to do it.

Zhang Yuge put his mind at ease, took his string of zongzi, and prepared to leave in a gloomy manner, swearing in his heart that he would never come here again in the future, otherwise he would be a dog! ”

"Do you have anything else to explain?" Zhang Yuge turned his head and smiled, his tone was extremely sincere.

"It's the New Year, be happy. ”

"Howler!"

Su Linfei watched the iron-clad young man of the Zhang family bouncing towards the entrance of the alley, and he couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart.

You must know that in the early years, this Yu Song was infinitely beautiful among the children of Daoxiang Town, and he was the number one follower of the mayor's parents, Sun Li Wuwu, who took advantage of Li Wuwu's power for a long time, and played the role of a master in the family wine, and it was also because Li Wuwu disdained to participate in this kind of childish game between children, otherwise, he could only mix the role of a housekeeper who could flirt with the girl.

Later, the four words that proved the impermanence of the world, Li Wuwu, who could not live forever, had a big disaster, and he couldn't get up again, he lost his momentum, and those children in the same town who were bullied in the early years were looking forward to such a day, even if Li Wuwu was paralyzed, it was still Li Wuwu, not easy to mess with, but a few fundamental days led by Zhang Yuge under his command were sad, and now the feng shui rotates, although Mr. Shushu education should respect the old and love the young, but since everyone is the same age, they don't pay attention to these.

Su Linfei looked up at the bright night sky, it seems that there will be no snow this year, and it is a pity to think about it, there is a little bit of noise, the happiest people who snow every year are not children, so there is more fun to find.

"Master, it's time for dinner. The door that had been closed after pasting the door god was opened, and the girl who had always regarded herself as a servant girl poked her head out and said coldly, looking like she was still thinking about pasting the Spring Festival couplets.

Su Linfei responded with a smile: "It's here." ”

Back in my yard, it has been like this for many years, it is very simple and the area is small, but it is very clean.

In addition to the main house where he sleeps, there is only a small kitchen, and a small cubicle for bathing is separated by bamboo, and when it comes to dinner, food must be brought to the square table in the main house.

As soon as she entered the main house, the girl had already filled a bowl of rice, put it in his place, stood aside, and was quite particular about the identity of her maid, even if Su Linfei said it many times, she still insisted on waiting for Su Linfei to sit down every time, which made Su Linfei quite helpless, after all, although the girl regarded herself as a maidservant, Su Linfei regarded her as a friend.

The dishes on the square table are still quite rich, four dishes and one soup, it can be said that ordinary people only have this kind of food in a few days during the New Year's holidays, Su Linfei only glanced at it, his face changed slightly, and asked the girl: "Childish... What are these?"

The girl who was called a childish kite glanced at her young master, what kind of stupidity is this? I had to reluctantly introduce it: "This is a foreign dish that I have seen in the book, called the gathering of heroes. ”

Looking at the fried carrots, cold green radish, and white radish soup on the table, how could there be a plate of purple radish? Su Linfei's face was stiff, after all, he really didn't like radish, and said in a trembling voice: "What, how can it be all radish?

The young kite looked at his young master with a puzzled expression, what's wrong today?

Su Linfei endured the childish look and said, "Didn't I earn a bag of silver money today?"

Hearing this, the young kite sighed, and no longer angry with Su Linfei, and said, "The young master also knows that there are a lot of outsiders in the town now. ”

"Well, and then what?"

"The outlanders were very generous. The young kite explained.

"I know that. Su Linfei nodded, during the day, he met a group of people at the entrance of the town, led by a handsome, elegant and easy-going young man, Su Linfei just helped them find a place to stay, and the bag of silver money he gave him could make their family carefree for half a year.

Just looked at the childish kite with a helpless face, "It's this group of outsiders, buying things is like not asking for money, now the people who sell vegetables and meat in the town treat them as pigs, and a cabbage costs three silver coins, not to mention meat, except for the radish that has not risen in price, the rest of our family can't afford it." ”

Su Linfei was shocked when he heard this: "Prices are rising like this, and other townspeople can't lift their stalls?"

"The people who sold it to the town didn't dare to go up. The young kite said and pointed to herself, "But I'm also a foreigner." ”

Su Linfei sighed again, sat down and held the chopsticks, and gently knocked the table to make the two chopsticks neat, "Then I'll go grocery shopping tomorrow." ”

The young kite finally smiled when she heard this, and nodded again and again, after all, she is more annoyed by the matter of buying vegetables, but it is a pity that her family is poorer, otherwise she will not bargain, as much as she wants, and if she loses the money, it is estimated that she is too lazy to ask for the remaining money.

After moving the chopsticks, although it was a radish, Su Linfei ate this meal with an intention, and it was not perfunctory because of the gas, to be honest, the taste was not bad, but he hated the radish not because of the taste, so the meal was not good.

The young kite deserves to be regarded as a servant, and she does not forget to pick up vegetables for the young master when she eats by herself, especially when she sees the young master's resentful eyes, she is even more energetic.
